WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST
Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm
1) Spain - REE: Updated link to English language podcasts (old link
only lists podcasts up to 2 Dec)
2) USA - WBCQ: Added link to Marion's Attic web page
The next update is scheduled for early February
Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe
** ANDORRA [non]. Re 7540, R. Andorra via ARMENIA, with unknown QRM,
Dec 31, Wolfgang Bueschel suggests: ``There is a 2nd signal (jammer?)
on fqy - some BUZZY 57 Hertz on lower sideband of 7540 kHz, in
excellent PERSEUS SDR one could hear terrible music audio tone
quality. Reminds me on similar music transmission via Gavar Yerevan
for DSWCI and RMRClubs some 5-10 years back, with bad results.
Undoubtedly I HEARD a CO-CHANNEL signal on 7539.943 kHz tonight at
21.00-21.30 UT time slot, so US AGM monitoring had this to log at
Seoul KOR embassy file in the 30 mins schedule:
2023-12-31 21:04:27 capture: AM 7540 (XXX) WBT VARI
The interfering stn on 7539.943 kHz left the air - around 21.30 UTC.
Tashkent on co-ch schedule 21.00-21.30 UT ??? wb. 73 wolfie`` Of
course, UZBEKISTAN is typically off-frequency-minus like that (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 11780, Jan 1 at 0230, RNA is off the air as usual, circa
0200* instead of nominal 0300 UT = local midnight, depriving us of any
ZYNY celebrations. It`s not because of summer DST, because that`s no
longer observed. What else? 4985 RBC is S4/S5, unusable; 9665v &
11750v RVM would normally be sufficient, but not tonight, VP with
propagation disturbance, not only direct, but none any better into
Bonaire! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, Jan 1 at 0414, RHC suptorted and also breaking up in
apparent English, S9+30/40. Wiggle that patchcord! This time no +/- 10
parasitic spurs. A great way to celebrate anniversary of The failed
Revolution. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ECUADOR. 6050, Mon Jan 1 at 0401, no signal from HCJB an hour
before 2024y, still missing for at least a sesquiweek. Normal sked was
until 0235* except extended to 0500* on UT Sun & Mon. EiBi has it
reversed as if until 0500* on weekdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, Jan 1 at 2326, JBA carrier, no doubt the
signature of Hikari FM, pirate in Arizona or Sonora; he really needs
more power than a dekawatt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 31 at 2258 tune-in to REE, huge excitement in NY
celebration, campanas at 2300 as 2024y arives; no doubt live relay of
domestic network, and REE does not cut off at 2300, the regular Sunday
closing time. By 2302 it`s back to studio DJs for variety of music for
the occasion, unknown for how much prolonged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Jan 1 at 2300, back to usual token English from
SNR M/W/F. No news happens on a holiday, so soon into interview with
author of a book about Uruguayan rugby players plane crash in the
Andes, now a movie released by Netflix Jan 4; after we still hear
taped but retired Justin Coe with contact info including whatsapp.
BTW, I don`t subscribe to Netflix or any other premium
video/streaming. Already I have not enough time to digest all the
other, ``free`` media (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960.005, Jan 1 at 2305, VOT is not off, S9+10/20 direct
but still too noisy for pleasant listening. Into UTwente, S9+35 at
s/off 2353 with all-wrong +3h schedule, 2355 IS once and off
uncovering Chinese from XJPBS, std denunciation. VOT is usually
varying a few centiHertz below .005, but today above. Meanwhile I`m
munching on some Dried Mediterranean Apricots, product of Turkiye, via
ALDI Gold Emblem brand, well within 2-year shelflife (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U K [non]. 11825, Dec 31 at 2359, BBC via PHILIPPINES is JBA but we
can hear BigBen chimes as 2024y arrives by GMT; chops off air at
regular time 2400* before full toll can be heard! Tnx a lot, USAGM.
Reception of the 23-24 relay is normally much better but there has
been a propagation disturbance. And because of this we did not get to
hear WWV at 0000, so made do with 0001 January 1, 2024 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2223 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday January 1, 2024 at 0057 the 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 into
Maryland SDR.
Also confirmed UT Monday January 1 at 0400 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.922 as measured direct, S9+20. Next:
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW
1400 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1200 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB
1230 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB [previous #2222]
1500 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [unsked but confirmed Dec 6-13-20]
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW or 5130v?
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0230 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
Thanks this week to William T Hassig, Mt Prospect IL, for a generous
check to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds via PayPal to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Jan 1 at 0408:
684, 711, 774, 891 only - likely Spain, Western Sahara, Spain; Algeria
strongest (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1521, Jan 1 at 2320 UT, JBA carrier het to KOKC; don`t
usually check for 9/kHz TAs this early, even before LSS today at 2327.
Wonder if the 2-megawatt Sa`udi supposedly to 2230* be on later?
Nothing else of note in perfunctory bandscan, nor anything of
significant power in Eu/Af/ME on MWlist. But then there is that 500 kW
of CRI Russian from Hutubi, Asia = near Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, std
denunciation, but its sked supposedly only 00-02 & 11-20, on early?
LSR at Urumqi today 0144, so its morning broadcast should be quite
possible into much of North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED [non]. Long ago, NYE as well as Xmas eve were prime times
for special broadcasts from tropical stations -- on later than usual
or all-night; even temporary reactivations for the holidays. But not
any more. Jan 1 at 0234 I bandscan the entire 120, 90 and 60m bands
without encountering anything unusual - indeed, hardly anything at
all, as what few stations remain are more likely to take time OFF than
on, notably 4885 R. Clube do Par?, which has been gone since before
Xmas, and we can only hope that`s temporary (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
