[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs April 15-16, 2020
** ALBANIA [non]. Re my report on Tirana via WRMI, WOR iog replies: ``As I reported earlier, the Radio Tirana program via WRMI on 7780 kHz on 12 April at 2230 UT was (nominally) 30 minutes of polyphonic music. I believe the announcer introduces the program with "Join us for some information about Albanian Easter Holy Sunday ... Albanian Easter polyphony is a traditional part ..." So, this was a special Easter program. But new this year? -- Richard Langley, NB`` ``Hi Glenn, I have monitored the podcasts of R Tirana as uploaded by www.radio360.eu --- These were all 30 minute transmissions (although Tuesday 7 April only really consisted of an 8 minute news broadcast followed by music). Programmes monitored were as follows: Sat 4 April: xx02 News; xx08 "Mosiac of the Week"; xx13 "Folk Music of Albania" Mon 6 April: xx02 News; xx08 "Albania in a Week"; xx12 Music (standards & pop) Tue 7 April: xx02 News; xx08 Music (standards & pop) Wed 8 April: xx02 News; xx08 "Albania & EU Integration"; xx10 Music "Hits Through the Years" Thu 9 April: xx02 News; xx10 "Albania Economy and Facts"; xx12 Music; xx17 "Around Albania" (Tourism); xx24 Music Fr 10 April: Repeat of entire 9 April transmission Sa 11 April: Undateable feature on Albania polyphonic music (which I think I've heard before - possibly it's an "emergency reserve" programme) Mo 13 April: xx02 News; xx08 "Albania in a Week"; Tu 14 April: (8 min programme only described as "news edition") By the way, the announcer on 4 April at (xx08) mentioned "you can hear the English broadcast of R Tirana can be heard on the shortwave of 6005 kHz from 2 to 3 o'clock pm". That is local time of UT +2 - it's actually 1230-1300 UT). Alan Roe Teddington, UK`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ALGERIA [non]. 7295, April 15 at 0545, RTA in Arabic via FRANCE is still/again getting jammed(?) by tones/beeps (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ARGENTINA [non]. 5800, April 16 at 0238, again no RAE as scheduled and really heard 48 hours ago, but WRMI world music fill -- ``Milonga`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. Just in at 0142 April 16: ``Hi Glenn, As of today Radio Educación 6185 kHz "Cultura México" is going to broadcast from 2000 to 0800 UT. There has been an important improvement in its signal as they are already using the 10 kW transmitter. They may adjust the schedule depending on the results. Best wishes, Julián Santiago. Enviado desde mi iPad`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO [and non]. DXmap showing sporadic E into the FM band, so since we have some essential grocery shopping to do, I also tune around on the caradio, April 15. Strangely neither now nor later do I hear a bit on the few somewhat open frequencies in the non-commercial band, which would give the impression there be no DX happening. A cardinal rule of Es DX is that it works upward from lower frequencies. 93.3, not till I tune up to here do I hear something, and it`s not an open frequency but occupied by 100 kW KJKE OKC. But something in Spanish has captured, April 15 at 1911 UT, soon ID as ``Exa FM -- en tu casa, carro``, etc. Search on WTFDA FM Database, essential reference at: https://db.wtfda.org/ finds only one Exa FM on 93.3, viz.: ``XHPS-FM 93.3 VERACRUZ VER MEX 30.94 kw ERP 208.0m 19-09-14 96-06-30 Spanish EXA FM EN TODAD [sic] PARTES...PONTE EXA! SPANISH POP EXA FM`` Spanish on 93.3 makes another resurgence at 1918 discussing something on Netflix? mixing with the Jake FM C Veracruz is at prime Es distance, seen/heard many times before: 1919 km = 1193 statute miles. Then I keep bandscanning, alert for any other hints of Spanish, notwithstanding some Okies and Kansies. 94.1, April 15 at 1912 UT, some weak Spanish mixed in the CCI. Certainly not definite, but there is only one 94.1 in the Veracruz state PTA: ``XHHV-FM AM 1310 94.1 BOCA DEL RÍO VER MEX 25.0 kW ERP 65.99m 19-07-58 96-07-50 Spanish LA FIERA 94.1 FM SW 09 REGIONAL MEXICAN LA FIERA`` Less likely but also a possible SS fullpower groundwave remnant from: ``KLNO 94.1 FORT WORTH TX 98.0 kW ERP 485.0m 32-35-22 96-58-10 Spanish HD 2E6C QUE BUENA QUE BUENA Language REGIONAL MEXICAN 94.1 LA QUE BUENA`` 94.1 also has growing CCI at 1916 UT from our nearest fringe gospel huxter with several other frequencies, ID as ``The House FM, Stillwater 105-9``. Flagship is really 89.7 in Ponca City = local in Enid: ``KTHM 94.1 WAYNOKA OK 9.8 kW 122.0m 36-34-55 98-52-12 VARIETY THE HOUSE FM`` 92.1, at 1932, some Spanish in and out quickly about películas. Again there is only one in Veracruz: ``XHPG-FM 92.1 CÓRDOBA VER MEX 49.95 kW 213.0m 18-52-34 97-00-15 Spanish GRUPERA LA MEJOR`` [KAMG-LP Enid still silent] (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) See also USA [and non] for a Mexican ham on 6m during this opening ** U S A [and non]. It may not feel like spring with lows near freezing here, but it`s time to keep an eye on the sporadic-E map: https://www.dxmaps.com/spots/mapg.php April 15 around 1800 UT, it shows MUF blobs *all* over the USA, mostly below 30 MHz,

Re: [HCDX] [WOR] What is Replacing Shortwave?
Oh my God, please not this topic again, a laughing stock since DWL Days some 19 years ago; actually just an expenses knight topic on conventions. 73 wb - Original Message - From: "madcute29 [dxld]" Sent: Thursday, August 25, 2016 Subject: [dxld] Re: New DRM receiver Sadly DRM something that could have changed the way international broadcasters reach their audiences. But the DRM Consortium is so poorly managed they seem to be in a perpetual testing stage. Also with many who were part of the consortium having pulled out and huge technology changes since DRM was first launch. It's not dead in the water. The one area DRM has been successful is sending out breaking news. First the Russia, Brazil, and then India. Well the Russians pulled the plug, Brazil is not interested anymore and All India Radio spent millions converting many of it's sites and nothing happening except they are now looking at new technologies. Also the Avion DRM DRM receiver is no longer available. What is the future? None. Those to head the DRM consortium are appointed and are on a whole bureaucrats. And just look at this thing.

Re: [HCDX] [WOR] IRRS 7290 kHz is NOT via Romania; RRI A-20 schedule
If IRRS Milano hadn't been stupid with the truth of TX locations for 27 years, publicly declaring rent bargains across Eastern Europe countries, there would be no such research need. wb - Original Message - From: "Mauno_Ritola" Sent: Wednesday, April 15, 2020 1:06 PM Subject: Re: [WOR] IRRS 7290 kHz is NOT via Romania; RRI A-20 schedule Hi Alexander, thanks, you are right, I just got confirmation from Radiocom, that 7290 kHz 1700-1900 is not from them. But I don't think it is possible to get a reply from Bulgarian operators. 73, Mauno Alexander Busneag kirjoitti 15.4.2020 klo 12:49: Hi Mauno, No, only two of the three Țigănești transmitters are currently operational (TIG-tx2 and TIG-tx3). For some years, only TIG-tx1 and TIG-tx2 (both used by RRI) were operational, while TIG-tx3 (reserve) was not ready for operation. This explains why in the past years, most RRI transmissions via TIG-tx1 were cancelled when TIG-tx1 had technical problems, since TIG-tx3 was not ready for use. However, a few RRI broadcasts were transmitted via Săftica (SAF) in such cases. In the context of these technical problems with TIG-tx1, it is nevertheless important to point out that the continuity of RRI's broadcasts was not affected, since all Galbeni (GAL) and Țigănești (TIG) transmissions go out on two parallel frequencies. This means that listeners were always able to tune in to the second frequency (via TIG-tx2)! A few weeks ago, the situation changed: TIG-tx1 is defective again, but TIG-tx3 is finally operational again, and it temporarily carries all frequencies scheduled for TIG-tx1. Hence, RRI is broadcasted on all scheduled frequencies! There is no free space for the IRRS evening transmissions on 7290 kHz at 1700-1900 UTC, since all available RADIOCOM SW transmitters are used by RRI: 1700-1800 UTC: GAL-tx1: RRI Ron = 9500 kHz GAL-tx2: RRI Ron = 11975 kHz TIG-tx1: currently out of order! TIG-tx2: RRI Eng = 11850 kHz TIG-tx3 (replacing TIG-tx1): RRI Eng DRM = 9760 kHz SAF: RRI Ukr (30 min) & Srp (30 min) = 5910 kHz 1800-1900 UTC: GAL-tx1: RRI Ron = 9500 kHz GAL-tx2: RRI Ron = 11975 kHz TIG-tx1: currently out of order! TIG-tx2: RRI Deu DRM = 6090 kHz TIG-tx3 (replacing TIG-tx1): RRI Deu = 9570 kHz SAF: RRI Ita DRM (30 min) & Rup (30 min) = 5910 kHz For further details, see: http://ab27.bplaced.net/rri.pdf As stated above, all frequencies scheduled for TIG-tx1 [T1] are temporarily transmitted via TIG-tx3 [T3]! 73, Alexander _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ ___ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
