Thanks, Glenn WORLD OF RADIO 1410 SUMMARY: *Another 11-meter broadcast auxiliary audible during sporadic E openings: 25870 from an unknown station serving El Dorado/Sonora TX *WBCQ resumes 9330 and 5110 with Brother Stair almost 24/7, also filling open slots on 7415 *New show on 7415 is QSO with Ted Randall, formerly of KAIJ; hour-long interviews Sundays at 1900, starting May 25 with Ronnie Milsap, WB4KCG; see http://www.tedrandall.com *WHRI, 11785 puts spur blobs around 11771, 11799, interfering with Anguilla, Habana *KVOH, 17775 still putting spurs on 17920, 17630 *WMLK, still off the air from 9265, shows ice storm damage to antenna on website *Terry Krueger tells of his adventure visiting the Air Martí airport run by Phoenix Air in Georgia; MacDill may also be involved *KREW, 1400, Plainview TX has been putting a spur on 1809.4 in the 160m ham band *XEXQ, 6045, San Luis Potosí, Mexico, has very weak signal because SW antenna is temporarily almost on the ground to avoid interfering with its own AM and FM outlets *R. La Hora, Cusco, Perú, reactivated after 3.5 months, on 4857.5, 2 kW M-F at 10-15, 23-24 *RAE, Buenos Aires, one day was off-frequency 15344.72, another day almost on 15345.00 *Algeria adds transmitters in France for Qur`an service; schedule *West Africa Democracy Radio transmissions on 17875 via UK canceled *Standard disclaimer *Much more at our website http://www.worldofradio.org *Thanks for financial support from Mark Schmit, Hyannis, MA, who sent a check in the mail to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702; by PayPal send to woradio at yahoo.com *V. of Biafra International is one clandestine with a big signal into NAm, and mostly in English, Fridays 20-21 via WHRI 17650, but scheduled to change to 15665 June-Sept. May 30 is the anniversary of Biafra`s declaration of independence from Nigeria in 1967; million- man-march called for. See http://www.biafraland.com/vobi.htm *Progress in building new World Christian Broadcasting SW station in Madagascar *Rumors of coup planned against President of Madagascar who okayed the project, and was visiting WCB in Nashville *V. of Broad Masses of Eritrea reported getting a third network, which may account for even more frequencies and Ethiopian jamming *From June 1, R. Praga relay via Ascension in Spanish to South America moves from 11665 to 7275 --- but that`s in an exclusive ham band! *International Radio Serbia, reported missing from its SW frequencies last week, shortly came back after replacing a tube, but still colliding with Mexico on 6185 [but our suggestion they move to 6190 is being implemented from May 30-31, to NAm 2330-0130] *R. Bulgaria started DRM May 26 at certain hours on 9700, 11900 *Saudi Arabia`s buzzy transmitters on 15205, 11915 and others suddenly get worse, putting noise across entire bands *V. of Iranian Kurdistan, from northern Iraq, fools jammers by starting on one frequency, 4886.21, and then jumping 4860.39 leaving the jammers behind *Radio Pakistan has spent 60% so far of the funds for installing two new 100 kW SW transmitters; lesser amounts on new 100 kW MW transmitters *AIR Sikkim, 4835, reported from Pennsylvania at 0210; try from sign- on at 0100. Pakistan was on same frequency in winter, apparently now on 5940 instead *As of May 27, China still had not resumed Firedrake music for jamming, just CNR1 programming [but Firedrake did resume May 29] *Reports from our own correspondents visiting China, Ron Howard and Mark Schiefelbein, on Sichuan
