Re: [DX] Draconidit, maksimi menossa
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. 73, IS _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Museovehkeillä reaaliajassa.

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.

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.

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.

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) **

[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs October 3-4, 2013
** 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
