Re: [DX] Draconidit, maksimi menossa

2013-10-10 Thread ilkka suni
Juuba, sano kamarimuusikon tuuba. Mie taijan olla 
ainoa pölhö vähintäänkin Suomessa, joka jaksaa kytätä kivien kihinää. Mutta.


Hermeettisen hyviä paukkuja, puolen minuutin 
leiskoja on tänään ollut. Draconidien maksimihan 
jo on takana, mutta omilla kansakoulupohjaisilla 
teorioillani näitä viivepaukkuja odotinkin. 
Oletan nääs siten, että oletan mitä oletan. Aivan 
vastaavasti, Perseidien jälkijunassa tuli 
harvakseltaan, mutta sitäkin hehkeämpiä.


Tänään on kertynyt nättejä audioleikkeitä, yksi 
uusi eheä idikin (87.6 NDR 2), ja jytinäleiska 3-kilovattiselta puolalaiselta.


Se mukava puoli meteoissa on, että näitä tulee 
taatusti, ennakoituna ajankohtana ja sen 
tiimoilla. Ei tarvitse Essin tapaan hötkyillä, 
vaan voipi pitää toosan suhisemassa ja nauhan 
pyörimässä: aivan varmasti kalenterin mukaisesti 
asemaa kuuluu. Kehnompi puoli taas on, että 
jokseenkin 10 kW:n lähetintehon kohdalle voi 
vetää rajaviivan. Jos tuon tehon alle luulee 
kuulevansa aseman, täytyy miettiä kahdesti. En 
enää muista menneiltä vuosikymmeniltä, mutta 
pienitehoisin meteona kuulemani asema lienee 1-2 kW:n luokkaa.


Kuka harrastaa mitäkin. Kieliopintoja, voisi miun 
olla hyvä harrastaa, teee suomen kielikin välillä kireää.

Content-Type: text/plain;   charset=us-ascii

Unident, 9719.965, 1130-1145.   Noted a very weak carrier on 9720 +- during
the period.  This frequency was active with Radio Victoria, Peru,

a few years ago.  Since Radio Victoria ceased broadcasting on 6020 KHz there
hasn't been any activity on 9720KHz either.  But there's always a 

possibility that the station will start broadcasting again?  I don't know
the 

actual history of this station, why it ceased broadcasting or if it's ever 

going to start up again?Today there was no audio heard here, just the
carrier.   (Chuck Bolland, October 9, 2013)

 

Indonesia, 4749.884, RRI Makassar, Pres.  1145-1200,  Noted a threshold
signal here with some audio off and on, but basically just a carrier.
(Chuck Bolland, October 9, 2013)

 

MARIANA, Presumed, 15199.99, Radio Free Asia, 1155-1200, At tune in, noted
ID in English as ... Radio Free Asia  Then program went to music in
Laotian language (presumed).  At 1200, dead air broadcasted until a few
minutes after 1200 when a broadcast continues in unknown language.  Signal
seemed weaker than the one prior to 1200, so it could be another station or
the same one with a different antenna beam.  Prior to 1200 however, the
station was Radio Free Asia.  Please note that country and language are both
presumed.  (Chuck Bolland, October 9, 2013)

followed by CNR1 theme and CJKT/ZRGD ID. Similar pileup on 7385 also against 
RTI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 13645 // 13650, Oct 10 at 1227, CRI English, an echo apart and 
about equal poor levels, i.e. southward from Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN and 
northwestward from Cërrik, ALBANIA, respectively, both scheduled 11-13 UT; 
rather unusual to hear CRI 5 kHz apart from itself, but bound to happen on this 
overkill multi-frequency service. I count 21 SW in use during the 12-13 hour 
per WRTH 2013 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. See AUSTRALIA for a show about Cuba without Castro 

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, Oct 9 at 1939, R. Africa is on; unfortunately 
beneath a local wandering DTV cable converter box blob when monitored on the 
FRG-7 inside. Yet I can still hear a slight het on the hi side, no doubt from 
R. Inconfidência, Brasil. 

Via DX-398 on the porch, clearer at 2038 recheck, and sure sounds like Tony 
Alamo prayerfully mumbling, 2042 with female (child wife?) sidekick reading 
fanmail, one from San Salvador; and next letter does mention ``Tony Alámo``. So 
the convicted sex offender serving a 175-year sentence in federal prison is 
back on SW tnx to Radio Africa, which was the last station he was heard on 
before its latest 8-month hiatus. Before that he was a welcome client on WWCR, 
banned only after his final conviction.

This site http://www.tonyalamonews.com/ is still being updated in the 
aftermath, but has little if anything to say about his continuing to broadcast 
(no doubt now from ancient recordings). 

May I suggest that people restrain themselves from sending reception reports to 
R. Africa. Not that we owe Tony Alamo anything, but judging from previous 
months of silence, interspersed with days of activity, QSL requests could be 
exhibited as ``proof`` to gullible clients that they are really on the air and 
with an audience (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1690, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY. 21600, Oct 10 at 1300, no signal from Gospel for Asia in Nepali via 
Nauen, as heard Oct 8 1300-1315+ instead of(?) scheduled 15350. Inconclusive 
whether that was a one-off, as no hi-latitude propagation today (or yesterday), 
from Europe or Mideast, just 21780 DW Rwanda (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9420, Oct 10 at 0513, blues guitar and YL in English from ER, one of 
few usable signals on attenuated band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 5765-USB, still no signal detected from AFN, Oct 10 at 1240. Last date 
heard was Sept 19, by Bob Wilkner and myself (Glenn hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** INDIA. 11985 // weaker 11740, Oct 10 at 0058, AIR sounds simulcast, so they 
accomplished the Sinhala service on both frequencies this time (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 760, Oct 10 at 1201 UT, YL with headlines in Spanish interspersed 
with rapid beats of single-tone sounders; 1203 over to OM with more detailed 
news including murders in BCS. Loops N/S and probably from 70/10 kW XEABC in 
the DF, altho there are three others in that general direxion (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9775, Oct 10 at 0055 a JBA carrier, and after 0100 nothing at 
all, third night without any Radio YHWH; altho propagation has really degraded 
since then (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

2013-10-10 Thread Glenn Hauser
** AUSTRALIA. 9580, Friday Oct 4 at 1232 instead of 1230, RA is ending 
`Download This Show` and starting `Innovations`, admittedly a repeat from 
2012y, about Durham and other varieties of wheat. Show website still shows no 
new ones produced since July 2013; previously RA had been inserting a prepeat 
of new `Future Tense` shows in the Fri 1230 slot, but now back to 
`Innovations`, even if reruns (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BOLIVIA. 5952.4, Oct 4 at 0054, Pio Doce is missing again, off early or off 
completely; 4717-, Yura is only a JBA carrier. A few minutes after 0100, 6135-, 
R. Santa Cruz with a full ID on strong signal, but not enough to overcome the 
Aparecida 6135.0 het. Weaker het on 6155 probably involving R. Fides (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BOLIVIA. 3310, Oct 4 at 0107, very poor music sounds Andean vocal; 0108 YL 
announcement, presumed R. Mosoj Chaski, on after 0100 today (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 4885, Oct 4 at 0056, now the wandering squealblob is right atop Pará 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHAD [and non]. 6165-, Oct 4 at 0058, weak talk unseems French, maybe Arabic 
dialect, from RNT on late again, before Cuba, which cuts on at *0100:50 with 
Spanish in progress instead of English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake [non] CNR1 jamming October 4 before 1300:
15970, fair with flutter at 1254
15570, poor at 1254 with het on lo side; none in the 16s, 17s
14870, poor at 1256
13830, fair at 1256; none in the 12s
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, Oct 4 at *0100:50, RHC cuts on covering up Chad, but with 
Spanish in progress instead of English; English is already on 6000 but 
undermodulated. By 0104 recheck, 6165 has switched to English. 

RadioCuba has an awful hard time coördinating frequency/transmitter switches 
with programming: at 0458, 6000 is in Spanish instead of English, while 6165 
continues in English; Spanish also on 6060, 5040; 6125 comes on at *0458 with 
carrier. By 0501, 6000 has switched to proper English feed (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. 13650  13670, Oct 4 at 1331, CRI in Chinese as 
scheduled via Urumqi and Kashgar respectively, 13670 stronger but also with 
TADIL-A bonker QRM, unusual spot (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9967, Oct 4 at 0103, R. Cairo again 2 kHz off-frequency, VG strength, 
usual whine and distorted suppressed modulation in Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, Oct 4 at 1823 UT, still no R. Africa again, 48 
hours after reactivation first heard. Maybe a JBA carrier from Philippines. 
Meanwhile, there have been reports of the domestic service from Bata on 5005 
being heard again in the +2200-2400+ UT period; activation there maybe not by 
coincidence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** GERMANY [non]. 17800 // 17820, Oct 4 at 1241, song about soccer(?), 1242 DW 
ID in French, synchronized so likely from same site despite only 20 kHz apart; 
one thing for sure: if it`s DW, it can`t be from Germany. HFCC shows 250 kW 
Woofferton UK for both, 180 and 152 degrees respectively, yet 17800 is slightly 
stronger. Would expect 17820 to have the edge here, since it`s closer to 
directly off the back (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 11985, Oct 4 at 0057, no signal from AIR Khampur; while 11740 AIR Goa 
is very poor with flutter, talk in presumed Sinhala (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 610  650, Oct 4 at 1203 UT, same Spanish newscast // and 
synchronized, stronger on 650, i.e. XETNT Los Mochis, and XEGS 610 Guasave, 
Sinaloas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 660, Oct 4 at 1203 UT, ``Hotel California``, then live DJ/newscaster 
with 6:05 TC at 1205 UT en ``La Lupe`, béisbol scores, so a little of 
everything, from:
660 XEACB La Lupe + FM 98.9 Cd. Delicias, Chih. 3,000 1,000 
as in Cantú (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 1180, Oct 4 at 1212 UT, Spanish music from southwest, have to 
minimize IBOC noise from evil KFAQ 1170 Tulsa; ``éxitos --- Ke Buena ``. Music 
really hyper; we`re awake now; likewise the SHVA announcing; 1215 lotería PSA, 
1216 adds Chihuahua to Ke Buena, so:
1180 XEJK Ke buena + FM 95.3 Cd. Delicias, Chih. 5,000 1,500
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. After getting even translators from Lawton and Wichita Falls, less 
than 200 miles away, see OKLAHOMA [and non], I keep checking all the channels 
in DTV and on another set in analog, split fed from the same antenna, and am 
astounded to see a weak but steady signal on channel 6, a toon with the net-5 
oval-italic logo in the lower-right corner, which I have seen on so many 
transmitters via sporadic E, but this is tropo! A duct extending far beyond the 
OK/TX stations I was getting. 

Ch 6, Oct 4 at 1451 UT, first seen; no sign of Es DX on the lower channels, nor 
on the maps, nor any
