[HCDX] Re: RFI Paris on 738 kHz
Hi, I also heard this French station on 738 kHz, but on the 19th of January at 15.25-16.00 UTC. They had a programme in Vietnamese, followed by Pashto or Farsi. Very good strength, but interfered by Spain. I also wondered about the strength - only 4 kW:s? Reason is simple: At thast time Spain was running on reduced power on 738, as they built a new transmitter for that frequency. So the Paris transmitter was better audible. -- 73, Martinhttp://home.wolfsburg.de/elbe/ ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is coming out.

[HCDX] DX News
DX-NEWS q ABU-HFC tackles shortwave broadcast interference: The High Frequency Coordination meeting organized by the ABU has successfully reduced collisions among shortwave channel frequencies by 13 per cent after five days of negotiations by participating shortwave broadcasters. Around 40 frequency managers of 18 shortwave broadcasters met in Kuala Lumpur from January 24 to 28 to address frequency channel requirements for more than 6,800 daily shortwave broadcasts by using coordination methods and complex software tools. The ABU-HFC provides a platform for participants to negotiate the resolution of interference to their shortwave services on a yearly basis. The next season for shortwave transmission begins on 27 March. The recent tsunami calamity has underscored the critical importance of shortwave radio in bringing disaster warnings and news of relief efforts to the affected population, and the need to keep it free from interference. The ABU-HFC Steering Committee also discussed the future functions of the group. This included appointing new office-bearers as well as securing greater participation from broadcasters in the region.. q Radio Taiwan International to stop five foreign-language broadcasts: Radio Taiwan International announced that it will stop five foreign-language broadcasts as part of its efforts to streamline the company, the Radio Netherlands Media Network has reported. The five languages - Korean, Burmese, Arabic, Mongolian and Tibetan - will cease broadcasting from 1 February. Chairman Lin Feng-cheng said that the company, with a workforce of 488 people, currently broadcasts in 18 languages daily worldwide and is the only international broadcasting station in Taiwan. q BBC re-launches Internet radio player: The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has announced that it is to re-launch its internet Radio Player to make almost every BBC Radio program available live and on-demand for seven days after broadcast. The new Radio Player will offer 500 extra hours of programming and offer a range of new features. The re-launch allows audience to listen at convenient times, control their schedules and fast-forward through programs while exposing them to new shows - and perhaps whole networks. The BBC says the new Player provides all the programs and benefits of the current model - which makes many of the BBC's radio programs available online - but includes over 80 more programs, making virtually all of the BBC's national radio output available on-demand via the Internet. The improvements follow 30,000 emails received from listeners about the Radio Player since it was launched in June 2002, and record online listening figures (Source: ABU Website) Regards, MD.

[HCDX] Maintaining the BBC Standard
Maintaining the BBC Standard -- An Interview with Tin Htar Swe January 2005 The BBC's Burmese Service is the most popular, and generally regarded as the most reliable, of the Burmese-language shortwave broadcasters. The Irrawaddy spoke recently with Tin Htar Swe, head of the Burmese Service. Question: What sort of news do you feed to your audience inside Burma? Answer: Our aim is to provide ground breaking stories, whether global or regional. We have a highly sophisticated audience who are well informed about the world events. One would have imagined that-given the limited access to foreign newspapers, periodicals and journals-people would be deprived of information. On the contrary, we realized that most people are very much up to date with what is happening in the world. When we put out a story we have to make sure that we explain the story well and that all angles are covered. When it comes to news we do not draw a line between global and Burma news. There are some exceptions of course; because Burma is a closed society we also try to put out stories which can be too local for the international audience but definitely not for the Burmese people inside the country. Q: How do you evaluate the role of the media in bringing democracy and freedom of expression to a military-ruled country, like Burma? A: Our job is to give an accurate and balanced account so that people are better informed, enabling the listeners to form their own views. Our medium is not only to help keep people informed but also to give an opportunity for the listeners to express their views. This is important for people in a country where there is a lack of freedom of expression. Q: What is your assessment of the Burmese media at home and abroad? A: Obviously the control of the media by the Burmese military regime is restricting the potential for young talented people to enter the profession. However I have noticed that the market for newspapers and periodicals is thriving in Burma and together with this I also noticed there is a pool of talented new writers and journalists. Decades of censorship have deprived the country of strong debate on social, religious or political issues which are the foundation for a stable democratic society. On the other hand many young Burmese aspirants in exile are trying their best to fill the void by setting up electronic news sites on the web. These sites have become invaluable for many Burmese who want to keep themselves up to date with the developments in Burma. I am a regular visitor to these sites and I am very much impressed by some of the articles and stories published. A number of notable Burmese writers are in exile but so far they have not taken any lead in publishing new works. Q: How do you feel working as a journalist covering Burma from abroad? A: I think it is fair to say that it can be very frustrating for journalists who cannot have direct access to the country that he or she is reporting on. An eye witness account from a journalist can often give a complete picture of the story and this is something that journalists covering the country from abroad cannot enjoy. Sadly, many stories about Burma are related to gross human rights violations committed by the people in power and, like most journalists, I often find myself under tremendous emotional pressure when I interview the victims. Q: As a seasoned journalist covering Burma, what is your analysis of the country's current politics, especially the impasse between the government and the opposition? A: The removal of prime minister and military intelligence chief General Khin Nyunt has put the army firmly in control of the state. The current impasse between the junta and the opposition will continue as long as the generals who do not believe in holding a dialogue with the opposition are in power. Undoubtedly, the junta's strategy is to dismantle the National League for Democracy party and to keep the party's key person, Daw Aung San Suu Kyi, under strict house arrest. The junta, with some degree of success, has isolated her from the people. Senior General Than Shwe, who is obsessed with his legacy, is searching for a place in history and has so far managed to hide the tension between him and General Maung Aye. [When] the military acts as a government, [it] tends to undermine the military institutions and create factions between those who are being favored and those who are not. I think the emergence of these factions will fuel the rivalry between the two men. Q: What will bring about democracy in Burma? Do you see any imminent changes? A: There have been various attempts by the international community to pressure the junta to move towards democratic reforms in Burma [but] it hasn 't been possible to convince the generals, who have acquired power forcibly, of the wisdom of peaceful change. Domestic dissent and international pressure have so far failed to persuade the junta to make reforms. The

[HCDX] Correction and addendums to my log from Puerto rico
Hi.. A sharp-eyed list member has kindly brought to my attention an error on my log from Puerto Rico. My posting: 09:45 4835 55355 UNID Female crying and talking about her sins and sufferings while male (in background with a reverberating voice) talks to her about Jesus in Spanish, (very eerie transmission) The correct frequency is 4385 kHz and afterwards was properly identified by me as Radio Imperio from PERU. Also another kind list member has identified the spanish language time standard station in 3810 kHz as HD2IOA, Instituto Oceanografico de la Armada, Guayaquil, Ecuador My apologies for the error and my apreciation to the list members that wrote to help me.

[HCDX] China Radio International signs new contract for international broadcast services with WRN
China Radio International signs new contract for international broadcast services with WRN -- 28 January 2005 At a signing ceremony in Beijing, China Radio International (CRI) has renewed and extended its agreement with WRN, the London-based international broadcaster and transmission service provider, for the extensive provision of global broadcast services. The new contract was signed by CRI Vice President, Mr Xia Jixuan and WRN Chairman, Mr Karl Miosga, at CRI's headquarters on 9th December 2004. WRN has worked closely with CRI for more than six years since signing a Collaboration Agreement in Beijing in 1999. WRN works on CRI's behalf, distributing its daily programmes to reach listeners around the world using AM and FM transmissions that augment CRI's traditional Short Wave broadcasting from China. CRI's daily programmes can be heard on FM in Berlin and Moscow and on AM in London, St Petersburg, across Western Europe, South West Russia, Ukraine and Romania. WRN identifies the most appropriate transmitters, undertakes local negotiations and monitors the output for CRI. Furthermore CRI's daily programmes in English, French, German and Russian can be heard on WRN's international news networks, distributed around the world via satellite, cable, local FM relays, wireless applications and the Internet. After the signing ceremony, Mr Karl Miosga, WRN's Chairman, said: WRN is honoured to have signed a new agreement expanding its cooperation with CRI. 2004 saw significant growth in both local and new media outlets that carry CRI programmes. WRN's networks distribute CRI on key platforms such as Sirius satellite radio in the USA which has now achieved over 1 million subscribers, and Sky digital which is reaching over 8 million homes in the UK and Ireland. 2005 is going to be an exciting year full of new developments and WRN looks forward to bringing these to CRI. After the signing ceremony WRN met with Mr Wang Gengnian, the new Director General of China Radio International, to discuss issues of mutual interest to the two organisations. - Ends - http://www.wrn.org/about/pressroom/press_release.php?SelectedStoryID=017 7 ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is coming out.
