Italy, 5965, Vatican Radio (Tentative), 0725-0800, Listening here to Radio Exterior Espana in Spanish prior to 0730. At that time however, a BBC English News relay broadcast began. There was no announcement as to it's origination or identification except it was pretty obvious it was the BBC. At 0744 English ceases. This is followed by the Italian/Vatican interval signal briefly. That is followed with a female and male in news in Italian Language. I can only catch a word here and there. At 0749 singing heard for a few minutes. The 2007 Passport has Italy scheduled on this freq a little earlier, but not the Vatican. The only solid piece of evidence to help with Identification is the Interval signal noted above. It was definitely Italy's. Signal was poor. When listening to the Italian portion of this mess, the format didn't sound religious as one would expect from the Vatican.

[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs November 1-3
** ALBANIA. R. Tirana, 6110, 0130 English to NAm, fair with no jamming Nov 2 at 0139; main interference was not from 6115 or 6105, but from 6100, Sackville in Spanish splatter, aimed our way at 240 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA [non]. CRI is beside itself now in the 1200 Chinese hour, as noted Nov 3 at 1257: on 9560 via Sackville, and after a few syllables of satellite delay, on 9570 via Habana. After 1300, the latter continues in English, as the Sackville relay for B-07 is on 11885 instead of 9650. Perhaps China was uncomfortable being sandwiched between two KBSWR South Korean relays on 9650 until 1300 and after 1400? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ECUADOR. HCJB`s long-obsolete frequency announcements in Spanish have survived yet another seasonal transition into B-07! Nov 2 at 1314 on 11960, the same old recording claimed they were on 11760 and 9745, while in fact they have been for years and continue to be on 11690 and 11960 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA. R. Truth, Chiquimula, in a band of its own, 4052.5, Nov 3 at 0520 with spiritual ``Nobody knows the trouble I`ve Seen``, 0522 preacher in English with Spanish accent (Amílcar himself?), and shortly into contrasting sacred music, Handel? The 0500-0600* hour is in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. XEYU, 9599.3, Nov 1 around 0630, good with classical music, but gone again at recheck 1300. Just before 1300 I was hearing no het on Cuba, so figured UNAM had vanished. Nor was it audible around 0140 UT Nov 2, altho the MUF may have dipped too low by then. Still missing around 0530 and 1330 too. After barely 24 hours back on the air, XEYU 9599.3v remains silent as of Nov 3. In checking the frequency, I found RHC on 9600 until 0459 Nov 3 with a song about Habana, // 9550 which continued in Spanish. So it would be pointless for XEYU to broadcast before 0500 anyway. At 0507 I found 9600 occupied by something in an African language. That`s VOA Botswana in Hausa until 0530. After that, 9600 should be clear for a while, altho there are various other broadcasters scheduled during the 24 hours, including more from Cuba in the mornings, 1100-1300, as well as -0500 (Sunday 2330- with Esperanto), per RHC website, which must always be viewed skeptically. Since XEYU is not frequency-agile --- except for slight variations --- it would be charitable if RHC were to cede 9600 to XEYU, but you could hardly expect them to if Radio UNAM is not really committed to daily broadcasting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. RNZI`s latest schedule change to 9870 for DRM at 0659-1258 is bad news for Vividh Bharati Service from India, and those who would listen to it, which a few weeks earlier moved to 9870. Nov 1 at 1250 there was no trace of VBS here under the DRM noise, and at 1254 there was also QRDRM to something on 9865. DRM went off at 1259* revealing 9870 VBS and 9865 VOR IS. May we expect yet another abrupt QSY by NZ to resolve this situation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** POLAND [non]. PRES, 9450 via Wertachtal for English at 1300 may make it to ENAm, but not to CNAm; Nov 1 at 1301 I could hear only a trace of a signal on this frequency. And no better Nov 2. Of course, if Warsaw cared about being heard in NAm, they would use some of their time on Guiana French for that instead of beaming Polish back to Europe --- or use Wertachtal at a suitable time and frequency for NAm, like VOR does now on 6155 at 0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SPAIN [non]. REE via Costa Rica really has some interference problems now: Besides Vatican collision on 5965 after 0400 as previously noted, Nov 3 at 0512, it had severe ACI from CRI English on 5960 via Sackville; CRI is on here from before 0400 until 0600. REE`s 9675 had even more severe QRM at 0508 from WYFR on 9680 with CBS Taiwan in Cantonese. This is aimed right at us, 315 degrees from Okeechobee (and equally ruins Channel Africa on 9685, English hour at 0500). Even REE 3350 had problems, at 0523, intermittent ``running water`` utility QRM. None of this would be quite so bad if REE had any punch in its modulation, but all its Cariari frequencies are very undermodulated and lo-fi, compared to Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** THAILAND. R. Thailand`s best chance to be heard here during English seems not to be the new NAm service direct in the evenings --- are we too far west for the ENAm service and too far east for the WNAm service to make it? --- but the 1230 UT broadcast on 9810 to SEAsia/Australia which happens to be on a clear frequency. Nov 1 at 1258 check, 9810 was poor with flutter, and adjacent to Cuban jamming against nothing on 9805, that being a residual until provoked by Martí, and not as full-force as it would otherwise be. The 1400 R. Thailand broadcast on 9725 doesn`t have a chance unless Costa Rica be off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY.

[HCDX] Sheigra DXpediton Report / DX Programme list
A report on the October 2007 DXpedition to Sheigra in the far north west of Scotland by Tony Rogers, Dave Kenny and Alan Pennington is now available on the British DX Club web site. The report includes loggings of stations heard on both MW and SW at Sheigra as well as some photos. The visit to Sheigra coincided with superb medium wave DX conditions, especially towards the Far East, and we were able to log numerous Chinese, Japanese and Korean MW stations which are rarely heard in the UK. Some afternoons reception of these stations was overwhelming and many more were heard that we were unable to identify in the time available. A short wave highlight was reception of Wantok Radio Light from Papua New Guinea on 7325 kHz and a tentative logging of Micronesia on 4755 kHz.. Also available on the web site, the BDXC Guide to DX Programmes which has now been updated for the B07 period.

Re: [HCDX] Dxers Unlimited's week end edition for 3-4 November 2007
Radio Habana Cuba Dxers Unlimited Dxers Unlimited's weekend edition for 3-4 November 2007 By Arnie Coro Radio amateur CO2KK Hi amigos radioaficionados worldwide... with our traditional salute, Dxers Unlimited’s weekend edition begins, ready to bring you lots of practical radio hobby information... I am Arnie Coro, radio amateur CO2KK, your host here in Havana and here is item one: Many listeners have written asking about the possibility of using a single antenna for covering a wide range of VHF frequencies, so today in our ASK ARNIE section of the show, I will be telling you about a popular antenna that offers broadband coverage. It is omni directional, that meaning it receives signals from all around the compass and also it is not too difficult to homebrew. Item two: Another antenna related topic...by using a parallel open wire feed line connected to a dipole or how it is known among experts a FAN DIPOLE,, you can actually operate the system as three antennas with very different characteristics... Mode ONE: as a standard half wave dipole, MODE 2: as a T antenna working against a good ground system and MODE 3: As an inverted L by using one leg of the open wire feeder against ground... By arranging for the proper switching, the THREE IN ONE antenna system provides you with a lot of possibilities. At CO2KK, my ham radio station, I have a three wire on each leg fan dipole fed with 400 ohm open wire line... The fan dipole by itself is an excellent antenna for the frequency range between 7 and 21 megaHertz, using a wide range PI network antenna tuner... By connecting together the two wires of the transmission line, the antenna works very nicely on the 80 meters amateur band in what is known as a T antenna configuration, but of course that it does need a ground return made, at my location by several ground radials or what was known in the early days of radio as a “counterpoise”. I use one of the wires of the open line, in another configuration, so that the antenna works as an inverted L... Now you know why I have named this system the THREE IN ONE ANTENNA... By making the legs of the dipole at least 10 meters long, excellent frequency coverage is achieved... More radio hobby related information coming up as Dxers Unlimited's weekend edition continues in a few seconds . Si amigos, you are listening to the weekend edition of Dxers Unlimited, and as announced at the start of the program, here is LA NUMERO UNO, the most popular section of the show, ASK ARNIE. answering a request about broadband antennas for VHF monitoring... By the way, monitoring VHF communications as well as the VHF amateur bands is one of the more than 81 ways of enjoying the radio hobby... But, monitoring the VHF range from about 40 megaHertz all the way up to about 170 megaHertz requires using a broadband antenna... For general purpose monitoring 360 degrees around the compass, there is one antenna design that works very well, and is not too difficult to homebrew... it is known as the DISCONE ANTENNA, and I happen to have at hand here, ready to be sent to any Dxers Unlimited listener wanting to build a DISCONNE, an excellent design program... The freeware program lets you calculate a DISCONE is less than two minutes... And I can assure you that antennas built following the dimensions obtained from the discone design software work very well indeed... My two favorite designs for disconnes are one that has a low frequency cutoff of around 40 megaHertz , with a high frequency limit of 400 megaHertz, and another design that starts operating around 100 megaHertz and that will reach as high as 900 megaHertz or even higher... From the above information you can see that the frequency range of a typical discone is almost a ten to one frequency ratio... an outstanding characteristic of this unique antenna system, which is fed directly using 50 ohms coaxial cable, and requires absolutely no matching system... Again, you can homebrew disconnes for any frequency range, with the design parameters that you feed to the computer software program... A friend of mine , who spends most of his spare time monitoring the aviation band in the range from 118 to 136 megaHertz , has built a discone with a low frequency cutoff of 110 megaHertz, that he has tested all the way up to the 800 megaHertz frequency range very successfully. His antenna was built during a weekend, using copper wire and a small piece of Plexiglas insulation to separate the cone from the disk... He used an aluminum disk for the top of the antenna, and copper wire spokes to form the cone... More about broadband antennas for VHF monitoring after a short break... . You are listening to the weekend edition of Dxers Unlimited, coming to you from Radio Havana Cuba, and for those listeners that have requested the data file about the QUATRRO CRYSTAL RADIO RECEIVER, let me tell you I made a new drawing of the schematic diagram, as

[HCDX] A day at Radio Free Europe
A day at Radio Free Europe http://www.turkishdailynews.com.tr/article.php?enewsid=87573 The Radio Free Europe conference helped highlight common values between Muslims and Westerners. Many more efforts are needed, of course, to bridge the gap between the two. This time there is no 'iron curtain' separating people with walls, but there are curtains, for sure, in many minds MUSTAFA AKYOL PRAGUE - Turkish Daily News The Cold War years had a taste of their own. The globe divided between the free world and the communist block was a perfect stage for spooks, and, of course, novels and movies about them. The adventures of secret agents, double agents, and all the masters of espionage were mind-blowing. Yet the whole scene ended in 1989 when the Berlin Wall came down and the Brandenburg Gate turned from the sinister symbol of a divided city into a mere tourist attraction. Even Her Majesty's most alluring spy, James Bond, would lose much of his charm with the end of the Cold War. A less stylish yet more influential actor of that bygone epoch was Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL), America's most effective channel for reaching out to the peoples of the communist countries. Based in the southern German city of Munich, the CIA mouthpiece, as the Soviets preferred to call it, aired the case for freedom in the native languages of at least a dozen European democratic republics, and, the mother of them all, Soviet Russia. In these countries trapped by the iron curtain, subversive citizens who were fed up with hearing the fables of their powerful comrades such as Khrushchev or Brejnev used to tune their centrally planned and thus inevitably unsound radios to the voice of RFE/RL. Yet they had to be very, very cautious. Listening to the American channel could constitute a major crime. Prague's real spring: The collapse of communism came, obviously, as a victory for RFE/RL. Yet it also raised questions on whether it should continue to exist. As the current president of the organization, Jeffrey Gedmin, notes, three different views emerged in Washington. Some said the anti-communist radio had done its job and had to be laid to rest. Others thought it would be necessary during the transitional period of Europe from socialism to democratic capitalism. The third view was that new challenges could emerge soon and thus the radio had to stay. Soon, the third view would turn out to be right. RFE/RL started the post-communist era with a bold shift. It moved its offices from Munich to Prague. The new pro-American government of the latter had offered a venue that was hard to discard: The defunct parliament building of the former Czechoslovak Socialist Republic. The move of the CIA mouthpiece to the home of a communist assembly was perhaps even more symbolic as the famous Red Army flag waived on the German Reichstag in April 1945. Hammers and sickles were gone, and now were replaced by the stars and stripes. Communism was dead and even its graveyard was claimed by its main enemy. That new headquarters of the RFE/RL is right in the center of Prague. And with its huge size and amorphous shape, along with the rusty and ugly metal monument that stands in front of it, the building suggests that socialist aesthetics might well be a contradiction in terms. That becomes painfully obvious especially when contrasted with the breathtaking beauty of the Czech capital, in which most of the old buildings, especially the gorgeous ones like the baroque-style Grand Museum that stands right next to RFE/RL, are masterpieces of art. A mini UN: What the RFE/RL does in the post-communist world seems to be advancing liberty this time not in Europe but many other regions of the world. The ex-Soviet Republics of Central Asia and the Caucasus apparently constitute a major goal for the radio. The RFE/RL is also much focused on the Muslim world, and there are sections focused on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Bosnia and many more Islamic countries. With such a diverse team, the whole building looks like a mini United Nations. The 500 or so employees speak, besides English, languages that you have probably never heard. Two days ago, a conference that focused on the gap between Muslim and Western societies was held in the RFE/RL. Supported by the Czech government, the American Embassy, Germany's Konrad Adenauer Foundation and the Prague Civic Institute, the conference brought together speakers from various countries to discuss the topic, What Unites and What Divides Us: Tough Questions for Islam and the West. After a full day of intense discussion chaired by Joyce Davis, an expert on the Middle East and associate director of broadcasting at RFE/RL, what appeared as the most interesting outcome was the realization of a mutual fear: Both in the West and the Muslim world, there is a perception of being attacked by the other side.

[HCDX] Nano Electronics Researcher Decodes Radio Signals Using Atom-Sized Component
Nano Electronics Researcher Decodes Radio Signals Using Atom- Sized Component http://www.wired.com/science/discoveries/news/2007/10/nano_radio?s howAllComments=true A scientist has unveiled a working radio built from carbon nanotubes that are only a few atoms across, or almost 1,000 times smaller than today's radio technology. The nanotech device is a demodulator, a simple circuit that decodes radio waves and turns them into audio signals. By hooking the decoder up to two metal wires, University of California at Irvine professor Peter Burke transmitted music via AM radio waves from an iPod to speakers across the room. People have been working on nanoelectronics for many years, and there have been advances at the device level on switches and wires, said Burke, who reported his findings in the November 14 issue of the American Chemical Society's Nano Letters. This work takes a step towards showing nanoelectronics in systems. The process centers on working with tiny tubes of carbon only discovered in the 1980s. They are sometimes called buckytubes, after the noted inventor Buckminster Fuller. Nanoelectronic systems are considered crucial to the continued miniaturization of electronic devices. Many companies are interested in the long-term potential of the technology. href=http://www.nano.com;Nanomix has received over $15 million in venture capital to.. http://zlgr.multiply.com (raidio monitoring site plus audio clips ) http://www.worldisround.com/articles/302315/ (Litohoro) 321199/Tinos http://www.flickr.com/photos/zachgrpictures upload . on my main : www.geocities.com/zliangas -tty-px.html : test of various TTY programs -ethics.htm: greek ethics , days and institutions -frape.htm: the greek way of cofee !!!

At that time however, a BBC English News relay broadcast began. There was no announcement as to it's origination or identification except it was pretty obvious it was the BBC. At 0744 English ceases. This is followed by the Italian/Vatican interval signal briefly. That is followed with a female and male in news in Italian Language. I can only catch a word here and there. At 0749 singing heard for a few minutes. The 2007 Passport has Italy scheduled on this freq a little earlier, but not the Vatican. The only solid piece of evidence to help with Identification is the Interval signal noted above. It was definitely Italy's. Signal was poor. When listening to the Italian portion of this mess, the format didn't sound religious as one would expect from the Vatican.

CRI is beside itself now in the 1200 Chinese hour, as noted Nov 3 at 1257: on 9560 via Sackville, and after a few syllables of satellite delay, on 9570 via Habana. After 1300, the latter continues in English, as the Sackville relay for B-07 is on 11885 instead of 9650. Perhaps China was uncomfortable being sandwiched between two KBSWR South Korean relays on 9650 until 1300 and after 1400? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ECUADOR. HCJB`s long-obsolete frequency announcements in Spanish have survived yet another seasonal transition into B-07! Nov 2 at 1314 on 11960, the same old recording claimed they were on 11760 and 9745, while in fact they have been for years and continue to be on 11690 and 11960 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA.
