[HCDX] VOA and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reduce broadcasts in Ukraine

VOA and Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reduce broadcasts in 
Ukraine
http://www.unian.net/eng/news/news-183545.html
The proposed fiscal year 2008 budget for U.S. international 
broadcasting calls for an overall increase of 3.8% from the anticipated 
fiscal year 2007 level that strengthens targeted programming to provide 
essential access to news and information to critical audiences, 
according to the Broadcasting Board of Governors.

The budget proposal is also aimed at increasing overall audience reach 
around the world by utilizing the latest technology and strengthening 
transmission capability.

Of the Broadcasting Board of Governors` (BBG) $668.2 million request, 
$142.4 million is allocated for programming to the Near East, South, 
Central Asia and Eurasia, $116 million for Arabic language 
programming, $67.2 million for East Asia, $45 million for Latin America 
and $13.6 million for Africa.

The proposal includes enhancements the agency believes are pivotal to 
promoting freedom and democracy and enhancing understanding in 
key regions. They include:

[1] Establishing a 10-hour coordinated stream of Voice of America 
(VOA) and Radio Free Asia (RFA) daily programming to North Korea.

[2] Launching a daily three-hour live Alhurra television program 
produced and broadcast from the Middle East.

[3] Continuing VOA`s Somali Service`s 30 minute daily radio broadcast 
scheduled to launch February 12, 2007, to the millions of Somali 
speakers  in Somalia, Djibouti and the greater Horn of Africa.

[4] Improving Radio and TV Marti'`s reach into Cuba through additional 
transmission capability and enhancing the production of the 
programming. VOA programming to Cuba would be increased to 7 
days a week.

The budget also fully funds initiatives begun in FY 2006 to critical 
Muslim audiences. These include the expansion of VOA television to 
Iran to a 12 hour stream, VOA Pashto radio programming to the 
Afghanistan/Pakistan  border region, television programs to 
Afghanistan and Pakistan and Alhurra  Europe, the 24/7 service to 
Arabic speakers in Europe.

To fund these initiatives and mandatory cost increases, the request 
proposes the following savings: elimination of VOA and RFA 
broadcasts in Cantonese as well as VOA Uzbek.

Reductions to the following:

[1] Ukrainian broadcasts by both VOA and Radio Free Europe/Radio 
Liberty (RFE/RL);

[2] Tibetan broadcasts by VOA and RFA;

[3] VOA Portuguese to Africa; and

[4] broadcasts in Romanian, South Slavic and Kazakh by RFE/RL.

Other savings will come from reductions in support services.

The FY 2008 request also includes several enhancements and 
reductions requested in FY 2007. These include funds to increase 
Alhurra`s live news capacity to 24 hours a day; expansion of VOA 
Spanish language programming to Venezuela; additional transmission 
capabilities for RFE/RL Russian and RFA Korean broadcasts and 
increased funding for employee training and award programs.

Proposed reductions for FY 2007 included in the FY 2008 request 
include eliminating VOA broadcasts in Croatian, Greek, Georgian and 
Thai as well as RFE/RL broadcasts in Macedonian.

The request includes eliminating VOA radio broadcasts but continuing 
television programming in the following languages: Serbian, Albanian, 
Bosnian, Macedonian, Hindi and Russian.

The proposal also calls for discontinuing 14 hours a day of VOA 
NewsNow English broadcasts while maintaining VOA`s English to 
Africa and Special English services and continuing to strengthen VOA 
English on the Internet.

The Broadcasting Board of Governors is an independent federal 
agency which supervises all U.S. government-supported, non-military 
international broadcasting, including The Voice of America (VOA); 
Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL); the Middle East 
Broadcasting Networks (Alhurra TV and Radio Sawa); Radio Free Asia 
(RFA); and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting (Radio and TV Marti').

Through its broadcast services, the BBG provides the United States 
and its leaders direct and immediate access to a worldwide audience of 
140 million people. Current governors are Chairman Kenneth Y. 
Tomlinson, Joaquin F. Blaya, Blanquita W. Cullum, D. Jeffrey 
Hirschberg, Edward E. Kaufman, Steven J. Simmons, and Mark 
McKinnon. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice serves as an ex officio 
member.

[HCDX] 1520 and 1540 SS stations

2007-02-10 Thread Gil Stacy
I need help with these two SS stations:

The first is at 1540 La Ranchera quince cuarenta

In a DX bulletin board, I saw mention of a Dallas location, but there are no
stations in Dallas at 1540, but there is one near Houston at University
City.

The second one is at 1520.  While the language is Spanish, the music almost
has an Arabian sound, but in Spanish.  I heard it at 245Z and have heard it
this fall.  I have not heard a TOH id.   It almost fooled me into thinking
it was 1521 Duba, Saudi Arabia.   It has a more refined sound than what I
typically hear in Mexican or SS music with minimal instrumentation and more
emphasis on vocal.

2007-02-10 Thread Prof. Arnaldo Coro Antich
Dxers Unlimited weekend edition for 10-11 February 2007

Hi amigos radioaficionados !
Welcome to the weekend edition of your favorite radio hobby program, 
coming to you from sunny Havana, where our mild winter weather is 
providing us with beautiful days for going to the beach !!! I am Arnie 
Coro, radio amateur CO2KK, your friend here in Cuba, now ready to read 
today’s menu: ITEM ONE
ITEM TWO:TV DX off season openings have happened, recently, with 
sporadic E skip events around , the Caribbean. At least one recent 
sporadic E opening sent the maximum useable frequency up to the FM band, 
making reception of FM stations from more than one thousand miles away 
possible even with handheld radios and their telescopic whip antennas… 
More about the sporadic E season later
That is still several weeks away, due to start at the end of April as 
usual .. ITEM THREE: An amateur radio satellite designed to orbit the 
Earth using a very special elliptical orbit that would make it available 
for many hours at a time, just short of a geosynchronous orbit, the so 
called MOLNYA orbit, is an excellent choice for any upcoming new ham 
radio satellite that will hopefully replace the doomed OSCAR 40, that 
had big problems from its very few hours in Earth Orbit.  ITEM FOUR: 
Listeners questions continue to come in via e-mail, postcards, letters 
and fax messages, and I have quite a backlog of them here waiting to be 
answered… a recent one from Chile, really surprised me, as normally the 
show is not heard so far South of Havana… But the use of 11760 kiloHertz 
with our omnidirectional antenna explains why English speaking listeners 
from Chile are picking up Dxers Unlimited.. ITEM FIVE: More about low 
cost , easy to build ham radio equipment, and at the end of the show, 
our exclusive and not copyrighted HF plus low band VHF from 30 to 120 
megaHertz propagation update and forecast.Stay tuned for more radio 
hobby related information, coming to you from Havana. Jose Costa Pupo is 
my sound engineer and producer , I am Arnie Coro ready to be back with 
you in just a few seconds…
….
Si amigos, yes my friends, you are listening to Radio Havana Cuba, the 
name of the show is Dxers Unlimited, and YES, we do QSL here one hundred 
percent, we do verify reception reports and we do it absolutely free of 
charge, as all short wave radio stations should do… Send your signal 
reports and comments about the program to [EMAIL PROTECTED], or VIA AIR MAIL 
to Arnie Coro, Radio Havana Cuba,
Havana, Cuba, And NOW , here is ASK ARNIE, THE most popular section of 
Dxers Unlimited, according to your e-mails, postcards and letters amigos 
… QUESTION number one for today: From listener Scotty in Maryland, 
Scotty wants to know why old radio magazines often mentioned the use of 
so called converters ahead of short wave receivers to pick up the higher 
frequency bands. Well amigo Scotty, a converter is nothing but a 
complete front end of a radio receiver,that is built as a separate unit, 
it usually includes a radio frequency amplifier stage, a mixer and a 
local oscillator. The RF stage for the VHF bands used the best available 
vacuum tubes that provided good gain and low noise, and the really good 
converters used a crystal controlled local injection oscillator. Even 
today, adding a homebrew converter ahead of a low cost receiver can 
provide outstanding results, especially with radios that lack front end 
selectivity or use a single intermediate frequency, the so called single 
conversion receivers. Not too long  amigo Scotty, I removed a lot of 
dust from a three vacuum tube six meter band converter that was in 
storage for many years… it required 6.3 volts filament voltage and 150 
volts DC to operate. Powering it up from one of my workbench power 
supplies , I connected the more than 40 years old converter to a modern 
digital portable receiver,the SONY ICF7600 and was pleasently surprised 
when I could pick up several of the local VHF communications systems 
operating here around 49 megaHertz, using just a test lead from the 
multimeter as an antenna. Converters are no longer required for all 
practical purposes, as modern HF receivers are including extended tuning 
range up to the two meters amateur band. Anyway, for those of you like 
amigo Scotty that are interested in VHF converters, I may add that they 
are not too difficult to homebrew, especially if you use solid state 
devices . A typical more modern converter will use a high gain low noise 
MOSFET RF amplifier stage, a double balanced passive mixer and a bipolar 
transistor oscillator. It will be powered from 12 volts DC and when 
connected to even a low cost modern digital receiver, will turn the 
resultant combination into a rather nice VHF receiver , useful for 
monitoring 6 meters during the summer sporadic E season. Remember to 
tune set the receiver to scan from 50.0 to 50.3 megaHertz where most of 
the activity on 6 meters is concentrated around the world.  QUESTION

Making Waves

Ashish Mitra
Posted online: Friday, February 09, 2007 at  hours
IST

The history of News Broadcasting in India is much
older than that of All India Radio (AIR). 
The first ever news bulletin in the country went on
Air from the Bombay station on July 23, 1927 under the
Indian Broadcasting Company. 
A month later on August 26, 1927 another bulletin in
Bengali was broadcast from the Calcutta station. Until
1935, two bulletins, one each in English and
Hindustani and Bengali were broadcast from Bombay and
Calcutta. Tracing the history. 
Radio owes its development to two other inventions,
the telegraph and the telephone, all three
technologies are closely related. Radio technology
began as “wireless telegraphy”. Radio can refer to
either the electronic appliance that we listen with or
the content listened to. However, it all started with
the discovery of “radio waves” electromagnetic waves
that have the capacity to transmit music, speech,
pictures and other data invisibly through the air.
Many devices work by using electromagnetic waves
including: radio, microwaves, cordless phones, remote
controlled toys, television broadcasts and more. 

During the 1860s, Scottish physicist, James Clerk
Maxwell predicted the existence of radio waves; and in
1886, German physicist, Heinrich Rudolph Hertz
demonstrated that rapid variations of electric current
could be projected into space in the form of radio
waves similar to those of light and heat. 

In 1866, Mahlon Loomis, an American dentist,
successfully demonstrated “wireless telegraphy.”
Loomis was able to make a meter connected to one kite
cause another one to move, marking the first known
instance of wireless aerial communication. 

Broadcasting in India had an unique history. In 1935
Radio broadcast began with All India Radio (AIR).
Thirty two years later in 1977 the first FM service
was launched in Madras. 16 years later in 1993, AIR
started selling time slots for private FM radio
broadcasting in five cities. The idea was getting
bigger by the day. Only six years later in 1999 the
Government privatized of FM - Phase I Policy. In 2001
licenses were started to be given to private radio
broadcasters while in 2005 announcement of Phase II
Policy of privatization of FM was made. 

Privatization of FM Radio in India


 
  
Internationally, FM radio broadcasting is the
preferred mode of radio transmission due to its high
quality stereophonic sound. 

In March 2000, the Government invited private sector
into FM radio broadcasting by opening up the
frequencies in the FM band (87.5-108 MHz). In this
Phase I Policy of FM radio privatization, private
operators were invited to bid for a 10-year license to
set-up and operate FM radio stations. The original
plan was to set-up 108 FM radio frequencies across 40
cities. 101 bids were received, aggregating to a
license fee of approximately Rs.4.25 billion. [Source:
FICCI Ernst  Young Report, 2004]. The unusually high
license fee structure and year-on-year annual
escalations of 15% hampered the FM radio growth. 

The Government’s Tenth Plan stipulates that private
operations are to be encouraged to provide FM radio
services in metros and small cities. They recently
announced Phase II of the privatization of FM radio,
which is an initiative in line with the roadmap laid
out in the Tenth Plan. A total of 338 channels in 91
cities across the country would be made available for
bidding by Indian private companies. 

Industry Size


The radio industry revenues for fiscal 2005 have been
estimated at Rs. 3.22 billion, and are expected to
grow by 14.3% to Rs. 3.68 billion by fiscal 2006.
(Source: Central Statistical Organisation,
“Advertising Expenditure Forecast”, October 2004,
Zenith Optimedia.). The state broadcaster - All India
Radio “AIR”) contributed 55% of the industry revenues
in 2004, which has decreased from 100% in 2001.
(Source: “Indian Entertainment Industry- An Unfolding
Opportunity”, FICCI-PWC Report, March 2005.) 

Globally, the share of radio in the advertising pie is
around 5% in countries where the medium is still in a
growth phase and around 10-12% of the advertising pie
when the medium reaches a mature phase. 

Satellite Radio


WorldSpace uses its two satellites, AfriStar™ and
AsiaStar™, to broadcast digital-quality audio channels
to people around the world who want world-class
programming that is not available or rarely found on
local regional or national terrestrial radio. Each
satellite has three beams and each beam is able to
send up to 80 channels directly to portable satellite
radios. Inside each WorldSpace digital satellite radio
is a proprietary chipset designed to lock onto the
WorldSpace satellite signal in one’s region of the
world. 

No other option provides the variety of programming
that WorldSpace offers. Also, each WorldSpace
satellite radio is equipped with a data port that
transforms it into a wireless modem able to download
data to personal computers at rates of up to 128kbps.
