Subject: [HCDX] ONLY HOURS AWAY! Christmas Eve DX Test: WCGA 1100
Woodbine, Georgia
Message-ID: <[email protected]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
?
The Courtesy Program Committee (CPC) of the National Radio Club and
International Radio Club of America wants to remind DXers that late tonight
will be the Christmas Eve DX Test for WCGA 1100 in Woodbine, Georgia.
Station owner Wesley Cox explained, ?WCGA is a daytime-only station that
broadcasts a news/talk format to the Georgia coast at 10,000 watts. We sign off
at sundown to protect WTAM in Cleveland, Ohio. But we need to do some
maintenance on our Harris DX-10 transmitter and the audio chain, so we thought,
let?s do it on Christmas Eve.?
The station will broadcast test tones, Morse Code identifications,
long-duration 1 kHz test tones, and Christmas music produced using a modular
synthesizer. The testing will begin at 12:01 AM Eastern Time (05:01 UTC) on
Saturday morning, December 24th.
The test can be received at great distances, perhaps even in Europe and
Scandanavia. Cox welcomes reception reports from faraway listeners, ?We?re
especially interested in hearing reports about the audio coming from the
station, noting any distortion or modulation issues.?
Listeners who hear the test are asked to submit reception reports to the CPC,
who will handle the station's reception reports. Please follow the requirements
below:
Send an email of your report, along with a two-minute long recording of your
reception in .MP3 or .WAV format to:
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>
The email should include the following:
John Doe, W4DOE
123 Main Street | Contact Information of DXer
Anytown, AL 35112 |
USA |
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> | Email Address
of DXer
Member of both IRCA & NRC | Please note your membership in our
clubs.
Drake R8B with a 40? longwire | Information about the equipment used to
receive the station.
Remarks | Comments about the station?s
audio, interference, frequency stability, or
other information
you?d like to share.
WCGA.mp3 | Attach a copy of the audio
you received.
All emails should be formatted exactly as above. Start with your contact
information, and be sure to include the email where you want the QSL emailed.
Reception reports must be received within the next 30 days. The use of remote
SDRs to receive the test is discouraged unless it is a receiver location that
you have built and maintained specifically for DXing. If a remote SDR is used,
you must disclose the location of the receiver and the name of the owner, if
known. The remote receiver must be located at least 500 miles from WCGA.
One QSL per DXer.
The CPC would like to thank station owners Wesley and De Cox, along with
everyone at Cox Broadcast Group, Inc for working with the DXing community to
coordinate the station maintenance. ?We wanted to give something back to
hobbyists who love radio as we do. It?s also a great way to celebrate the birth
of Jesus. Something that gets lost too often in all the hustle of the season.
We hope our local listeners will enjoy it too.?
The station will be on the air testing for two hours, using their daytime power
and pattern. Their antenna is a six-wire Ron Knott folded unipolar. Don?t miss
this chance to hear a rare daytime-only station and put a new one in the
logbook. Anyone who fails to receive the test will receive coal in their
stocking. I got that straight from the Big Man, so you?ve been warned. He
knows!
?

Asunto Season's Greetings/ FRS on air XMas Day
Dear FRS Friends ,
[]
At the end of the year a little message from us at FRSH.
For most of you this weekend sees the start of the Holiday Season.
2022 has been a good year for FRS-Holland. In particular the Summer
Splash (3-in-a-row) and
the 42nd Anniversary broadcast produced a great response.
Thanks to each and every one who supported us in 2022.
We look forward to hear from you in the New Year.
In the mean time all eQSLs plus the hard copies via postal services,
have been forwarded.
There only a few hard copies left, so if you are interested you know
what to do.
The hard copy QSL looks slightly different and certainly is a 'must
have!
News
We were a bit disappointed by the fact that conditions were poor last
weekend.
Shortwave propagation is unpredictable!
The good news is that there will be a full repeat next XMas Sunday
December 25th.
Programmes run from 10:52- 15:35 UTC/ 11:52- 16:35 CET. Frequencies are
5870, 7700 & 9300 kHz.
Mind you: this time 9300 is with higher power and 7700 with low power.
Perhaps you find a little time to tune in between family business!
We wish all of you a Merry Xmas and a healthy, 'radioactive'& succesful
2023 .

** ANTARCTICA [non]. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Dec 24 at 1500-1505+ NO
signal from LRA36 into any of the four remaining Argentine KiwiSDRs,
nor at occasional chex following semihour as I am mainly listening
to:
FONLAC in web stereo via WUOT rather than offtarget BBC SW: Festival
Of Nine Lessons And Carols -- for the music if not the lessons. WUOT
repeats it at 0300 UT Dec 25. More about that and still audible:
https://www.yourclassical.org/story/2022/12/01/a-festival-of-nine-lessons-and-carols
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 258 MCW kHz, Dec 24 at 0728 UT, dash and ZSJ, 1000 watt NDB
at Sandy Lake, Ont., one of the rarer ones along with several common
ones; but I would really like to DX some ``new`` ones (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 11525, Dec 24 at 2325, S9/+10 of CNR1 jamming vs RFA Chinese
via Tinian scheduled at 23-24 and 20-21. More of a slight echo from
second jammer or longpath than anything from the victim. Nothing
similar anywhere else inside 25m band, nor in the 11.0 MHz area (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, Dec 24 at 2322, S9+10/20 of dead air from RHC. Ditto
11850 except for JBM in Spanish, and the latter still flanked by JBA
carrier spurs plus/minus 10 on 11840, 11860, the only RHC frequency
with that defect. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** EGYPT. 9439.995, Dec 24 at 2130, NO signal of R. Cairo in English,
via UTwente. Something`s always amiss in Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY [non]. 15770, Dec 24 at 2011, Gruss an Bord, yearly NDR
special for German mariners asea, VG S8/9+10 via WRMI into Maryland
SDR. Full span 1800-2100 but I gather from numerous posts to the WOR
iog that WRMI was OFF for the first bihour, apparently due to power
failure in FL. Also via several other sites and frequencies I do not
try. All in German, of course, except for songs in English, ``Small
Town Girl`` at 2014. ``All I want for Xmas is You`` at 2053; Live
audience with applause. Roger in Germany says:
You can listen to the pre-produced show here:

(~175 MB, mp3 128 kbps, 48kHz, joint stereo)
As live music was played, no rights issues and file is 183 minutes
long including the music. roger``
2059.5, 15770 cuts to WRMI ID with a different ``Okeechobee`` song
than usual; 2100 into ``Voice of Italy``, a.k.a. ``I Love Italy`` but
mainly in Italian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Dec 24 at 0710, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
but no other 9/kHz splits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 6185-, Dec 24 at 0733, XEPPM S9/+10 with jazz song in
Spanish (Glenn Hauser, oK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 350 MCW kHz, Dec 24 at 0720, RG NDB in OKC still off
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Dec 24 at 2115 UT, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV
transmitter, is back! Checking for it every day, was still off
yesterday since Dec 12. 3ABN is primary, with three more Adventist
video subchannels, and three audio-only, same as before.
Wish I had thought of it half a sesquihour earlier as 3ABN has
scheduled episode 5 of a 2019 series about Adventist World Radio, as I
have publicized. Other weekly airing is UT Thursday at 0230 so maybe
catch it then. Too much was going on at 2030 today! WOR on WA0RCR,
Gruss an Bord on WRMI, Jen`s Xmas Eve special on Unique Radio webcast,
KUCO`s post-opera vocal music. 3ABN? Three Angels Broadcasting
Network, the trio being a thing for the 7DAs (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 24 at 2312, S7/9+10 direct of dead air from VOT
English, then maybe a trace of modulation. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 353 MCW kHz, Dec 24 at 0717, LI, 400-watt ND beacon at
LIttle Rock AR. Strangely, I was hearing it better tuned to 352 and
even 351 USB than listed 353 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2170 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday December 23 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S3/S6 into Georgia SDR but
sufficient.
NOT confirmed UT Sat Dec 23 at 0500 on WBCQ R. Angela. As far as I can
tell by checking remotes in NH, NY, MD, OH and MO, it`s off the air,
presumably due to wind-caused power outages as explained on AAAWWW. At
first there seems to be a JBA fluttery carrier into Missouri, but then
as on waterfall see same things every 10 kHz above and below, so must
be something internal to SDR; same around 7490. 5130 had been on
earlier for `Greek Music Refuge` at 0330, but reception too poor to
enjoy; and as a matter of R Angela policy, no webcasts or ondemand;
unless they also happen to be on another transmission, like UBMP is.
Missed checking Sat Dec 23 at 1700 WRN webcast of WOR but I know they
have the latest file and will confirm it later. Yes, confirmed at
2030.
Also confirmed starting at 2035 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO,
S9+25 into nearby Warrenton SDR. Next:
0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to SW

** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat Dec 24 from 0100 on WBCQ webcast,
`AAAWWW`, another new live show; Angela always suspects her mike isn`t
really on, but confirmed it is. It`s 46 degrees in Deland of Fla,
really chilly for them and going down further. Discussion of how Dec
25 as Xmas was just chosen by the RCC as admittedly no one knows when
JC was really born.
Against more giga$ of aid for Ukraine. They continue to denigrate
President Biden as an incompetent ``puppet``. They imagine that if
T**** were in power, he would broker peace between Ukraine and Russia.
They dismiss the 845-page Jan 6 Committee report with all the evidence
against T**** about the insurrexion.
I`m so sad that these intelligent couple allow themselves to be so
delusional. For those who would dare to read or skim it, here it is
online:

Allan laments that plain old radios are hard to find in stores, even
his local Walmart -- finally he found one ``clock radio`` that has
AM/FM. At 0145, datestamp as 23 of Dec, YOOLF 2022, from Studio 9 in
Fla where temp is descending into the 30s. Angela worx at horse farm,
Deep Creek Stables, Didion Springs, and they are blanketing the
horses, not used to such frigidity. 0147 reads more emails than usual,
none contradicting their politix but reinforcing. No Free Radio Weekly
to quote since Dave Turnick is rotating editor this week and never
finishes it until next morning, after the 0000 UT deadline.
0152, explanation of WBCQ outages: really high winds cause power to
trip off every half hour all day, which is hard on transmitters,
especially the SuperStition, so Al orders 9330 turned off until the
winds die down. Electrical grid around there is 100 years old except
for WBCQ part reconstructed a few years ago. Unfortunately, WBCQ`s own
2-megawatt Diesel generator is not yet operational. It has a
30-kilogallon fuel tank, with heaters to keep the Diesel from gelling,
and in well-insulated building.
They run over into Hal Turner time again, JIP about 0202. I wanted to
hear his opening whether he still claim to be on KYAH 540 in Utah,
which has changed ownership/calls but is currently off the air, not
even 13 watts at night; so I check his website where indeed KYAH is
still shown as his only domestic affiliate along with SW WRMI and
WBCQ. I also see that he believes Putin that Zelenskyy is a Nazi!
I did not check SW frequencies during AAAWWW but 5130 was absent for
WOR at 0500; yet at 0730, long after BCQ is normally off, there is
S7/S9 of dead air with flutter on 7489.937. At 0734, S7/S9 of dead air
also on 6159.937, exactly same offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1100 kHz, WCGA in Woodbine, SE Georgia scheduled for a
special DX test Dec 23 at 0500-0700 UT. I heard it last time in April,
but check again and record for a QSL. 0608 tune in, tone sweeps upward
audible under WTAM Cleveland, even before I null it on the rotatable
DX-398 with internal antenna only. WTAM is 50 kW ND; WCGA is a 10 kW
ND daytimer. 0609, continuous 1 kHz tone; 0610 sweeps upward. I record
at 0618-0623 and later can just barely make out Morse code VVVs and at
0621, WCGA several times. Here`s my 2-minute clip I will be submitting

** U S A. 1100 kHz, WCGA in Woodbine, SE Georgia scheduled for a
special DX test Dec 24 at 0500-0700 UT. I heard it last time in April,
but check again and record for a QSL. 0608 tune in, tone sweeps upward
audible under WTAM Cleveland, even before I null it on the rotatable
DX-398 with internal antenna only. WTAM is 50 kW ND; WCGA is a 10 kW
ND daytimer. 0609, continuous 1 kHz tone; 0610 sweeps upward. I record
at 0618-0623 and later can just barely make out Morse code VVVs and at
0621, WCGA several times. Here`s my 2-minute clip I will be submitting

Dec 24th Xmas Eve "Twisted Christmas" -- Music from all over with a
twisted bent to it. Music that's taken from unknown & locally known
musical artists. Just during the holiday season they make music and
put it up on streaming & websites for purchase & I listen and see
which ones are good for my Xmas cast. Plus I play twisted type music
with unique themes, so tune in.
