Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
** ALBANIA [non]. 5850, May 4 at 2300, R. Tirana via WRMI, opening news is all
politix including PM meeting opposition to resolve political crisis; civil
disobedience, protests; 2307 press review; recheck just before closing another
talk feature rather than music until 2328 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** JAPAN [non]. 9490, May 5 at 0422, NHK Japanese via GERMANY is marred by
Cuban pulse jamming at about equal poor level, left over from R. Rep?blica via
France on same frequency which presumably stops at 0300 when Japan starts
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 15540, May 5 at 2052, R. Kuwait news headlines in English, 2056 more
western pop music, 2100 timesignal, a bit more music and off. I think they
missed the national anthem? Good on BST-1 caradio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR [and non]. 11825, May 5 at 0410, the African Pathways Radio hour
from Madagascar World Voice via Mahajanga, is instead dead air at S9+5 fading
to S7; 0411 modulation cuts on --- but in Arabic, not English! Talk. 0417 back
to dead air for a seminute, then some music; 0420 talk again, then more dead
air. 0427 a few words of Arabic, more silence as the NHK IS is again audible
underneath; 0431 music cuts on. With only a few languages and a limited
schedule on two transmitters, you`d think MWV could manage to match them up
properly. Anyhow, 25m propagation all the way from Mad is VG tonight (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR [and non]. 11650, May 5 at 0415, S9+25 peaks via Talata site, R.
Tamazuj ID in Arabish, with phone SFX, repeated IDs, song; accompanies also VG
but defective signal from the other Madagascar site MWV, q.v. 0421 also //
weaker 9600 running 6 seconds behind 11650.
For the morning broadcasts, HFCC, Aoki and EiBi almost agree:
R. Tamazuj: 0330-0429 9600 Vatican, 11650 Madagascar.
R. Dabanga: 0430-0530 9600 Vatican, 11650 Vatican, 13800 Madagascar
So if I had checked 11650 after Dabanga took over, it should have weakened, and
no longer be out of synch with 9600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7615, May 5 at 0409, YHWH is on at S9-S7. His regular
schedule is certainly facilitating rebusting, but maybe correctly assumes FCC
is otherwise preoccupied (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, May 6 at 0115, tune in just in time to poor but improving
SLBC carrier, to hear mistimesignal ending at 0115:20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 10000, May 6 at 0116, WWV again with robotic announcement about plans
to drop the High Seas weather info in October. Last time I ran across it was at
:14 past an hour.
Again May 6 at both at 0414 & 0416 on 5000: refers to http://www.nist.gov/wwv
where we find the text of the announcements:
NOTICE: The National Weather Service Atlantic and Pacific High Seas and Storm
Warning announcements as broadcast on WWV and WWVH are scheduled to be
discontinued on October 1, 2017.
Questions, comments or issues concerning this action should be emailed to
[email protected] (link sends e-mail) no later than May 31, 2017, with the
words "MARINE WARNING" in the subject line.``
Here`s the schedule/format of WWV and WWVH:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1876 monitoring: confirmed first SW
broadcast Thursday May 4 after 2130 on WRMI 11580, fair. Also confirmed Thu May
4 at 2330 on WBCQ 9330.44v-CUSB, fair-good. Also confirmed Friday May 5 at 2230
on WRMI 11580, good. Until 2229:30, 11580 had been in Spanish, a DX program?
interrupted for ID. Suspect it was Actualidad DX from RAE, Argentina as now
relayed on 5950 M-F at 22-23, but not supposed to be on 11580; except in past,
5950 was running // 11580 for this entire hour. Also confirmed Fri May 5 at
2330 on WBCQ 9330v-CUSB, fair on the G8 during the Tri State Music Festival
Parade in downtown Enid. Next:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, UT Saturday May 6 after 0000, I`m hearing `Jazz from the Left`
on this WRMI, but not on incomplete sked, showing Oldies except Mon Countdown
to Xmas Radio, and Fri Voice of the Report of the Week. Perhaps there are
further variations this hour otherdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7490, UT Saturday May 6 at 0006, WBCQ with rock music, not normally
what `Allan Weiner Worldwide` plays rather than monologs and phonecalls. Soon
known why, as cosmikdebris and Jane are subsituting while Allan is away.
Recheck at 0112, a couple of WBCQ ID jingles, then some more music riffs
repeating but not identical. Must be having problem with webfeed from Larry`s
studio in the 301 area code; then some blues music, still not joining Brother
Scare yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 540, May 5 at 2056 UT on caradio, KDFT Ferris [Metroplex] TX in
Spanish giving a 214 AC number, and somewhat above KWMT IA, on daytime
groundwaves via caradio about 15 miles north of Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN [non]. 7305, May 6 at 0146, Vatican Radio relay in Spanish is
underway, following open carrier as early as 0132 from Greenville B. So this SW
service has not yet been canceled, altho it was AWOL last time I checked, May 3

WCB MWV Frequency selection of 17530 kHz channel is rather poor.

signals.
Otherwise there are a lot of fq range channels FREE at 04-05 UT time slot.

which is S=9+40dB in Delhi India.
And another adjacent 17520 kHz suffer in use by MRA Saipan RFA Mandarin +
accompanied Chinese jamming, like S=9 in Japan.
In 03-04 UT slot WCB MWV Mahajanga-MDG signal in English propagate excellent
