[HCDX] Radio Pridnestrovye on MW
Moldova - Transdneister Moldovan Republic CORRECTION: The Radio Pridnestrovye broadcast heard opening at 1700 UT on 549 kHz is actually the EXTERNAL service. Mauno Ritola tells me it's on 999 kHz at 1700-1730 UT (as per WRTH), as well as unlisted 549 kHz. As you'd expect from a 500 kW transmitter, reception is much better on 999 kHz and Mauno has kindly provided me with a good-quality recording from it - this can be heard on the Moldova page of Interval Signals Online at intervalsignals.net. Wonder if Radio Pridnestrovye's domestic service is on FM only now?

[HCDX] Radio Pridnestrovye domestic service - 549 kHz
MOLDOVA - TRANSDNEISTER MOLDOVAN REPUBLIC Using a remote receiver situated in Vienna, this week I've been hearing the domestic service of Radio Pridnestrovye signing-on every day on 549 kHz mediumwave at 1700 UTC (current WRTH has this here 0600-2200, so evidently incorrect), usually with worthless reception due to extreme co-channel interference from Radio Slovenia/Radio Koper, Deutschlandfunk and several Russian Mayak transmitters. Today, however, reception was a bit clearer as only the Slovenian interference was in evidence, so I've recorded the sign-on and uploaded it to the Station Sounds section of dxldyg - this is what you'll hear from the start of the recording 25 seconds before the hour: Characteristic "USSR" on/off transmitter tones Time check in Russian: "Tiraspol 2000 hours" Interval signal (same as that used for Radio PMR/DMR external service) Announcement in Russian: "Tiraspol calling, [capital of the?] Transdneister Moldovan Republic" News in Russian A clearer, albeit much older (c.1995), recording of Radio Pridnestrovye can be found on the Interval Signals Online website at intervalsignals.net.

There is one strong Chinese and sometimes possibly another Chinese, but after 1500 hours and time signal pips, seemingly one of them signs off and/or starts playing nonstop music, soft pop of ballad type always in English and only very seldom very wellknown melodies. It goes on for an hour and continues after time signal "pips" at 16 hours with the same style of nonstop played music and no announcements or identifications. After 16 hours there are lots of QRM from "pulses" and RTTY. I think that I heard Vietnamese from the other "Chinese". Maybe it is the Chinese, playing this kind of music nonstop, but maybe it is something else. I believe it is too strong to be Humpty Doo, although I would like to have it there! One day it was down to 5049.6 and then I thought of that, but the last few days it has been very close to 5050 kHz. Any help to solve this is welcomed Best wishes for a Merry Christmas to you all!

[HCDX] Tristan da Cunha: News from the potato patches
Tristan Radio, the broadcasting service of the remote UK territory of Tristan da Cunha, left shortwave some time in the early 90's, dashing the lingering hopes of many DXers of maybe picking up the weak (400W) signal on 3290 kHz during the few hours a week it was on air. Nowadays the station's only on FM and is on air for even fewer hours than before, so the only way any radio enthusiast who doesn't have the time and deep pockets to visit the islands are going to hear the station is by "cheating" and listening to a clip just uploaded to the Interval Signals Online website. Kindly donated by Dutch DXer Rudy van Dalen and recorded in 1996, this 1min 40secs clip is of various Friday broadcasts of three news bulletins - each very brief, with the number of items varying from 3 to... nil!, including a lead item appealing for borrowed video tapes to be returned! The clip is in stereo and sound quality is good, obviously recorded on the spot, though the sound balance isn't quite right, with the announcer slightly struggling to be heard above a "background" track of Fleetwood Mac's "Albatross". You can hear the clip on the Interval Signals Online website at www.intervalsignals.net A 2003 edition of Glenn Hauser's "DX Listening Digest" had some interesting background on the station, an interview with Alan Hemming, who set up Tristan Radio in the mid 1960's.

[HCDX] Radio Tirana IS and other unusual audio clips
All but the youngest of us will be remember the old Radio Tirana interval signal "With Pickaxe and Rifle" trumpeting through the ether in the 70's and 80's, before it was replaced by the somewhat more melodic IS currently in use. The Interval Signals Online website has a recording of an interval signal which predates them both: taped in 1969, it's 7/8 notes played on what sounds like a keyboard instrument, followed by a short orchestral intro and identification in French. Not quite as attention-grabbing as "With Pickaxe and Rifle" though! This was contributed by Dutch radio enthusiast Rudy van Dalen, who also donated several other interesting clips from 1969, such as: BELGIUM: RTB/BRT "Voice of Friendship" service to their African territories - then known as Belgian Congo and Ruanda-Urundi. Hear ID's in French, Dutch and an African language, followed by their tom-tom interval signal. DENMARK: Voice of Denmark (OZF), later Radio Denmark, signing-on their service in English and Danish to North America. Interval signal, chimes from Copenhagen Town Hall, followed by an announcement in English. Rudy also contributed a couple of interesting clips from Antarctica, recorded in 1994: US SECTOR: AFAN McMurdo with local ID's, a "Keep Antarctica Beautiful" message about recycling, and a weather forecast (snow). ARGENTINE SECTOR: Radio Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel (LRA36), with identification announcements in English and Spanish.

[HCDX] Radio Gambia - "Long live the revolution"!
On 30 July 1981 there was a left-wing coup attempt against the government of President Dawda Jawara, which lasted less than a week before being thwarted by the intervention of Senegalese troops. The plotters had managed to gain control of the whole country for those few days though, including state broadcaster Radio Gambia, which they, in the usual fashion, described as "the voice of the revolution". Swedish radio enthusiast Goran Carlsson has donated an audio clip of the rebels on the air in English, with the usual "Long Live the Revolution" and "Long Live the Struggle" sloganizing and urging the population to "gather behind the Supreme Council of the Revolution".

[HCDX] Radio Samora Libre
VENEZUELA Not shortwave, but of interest nonetheless, I think: Via DX Tuners receiver in Caracas, I regularly hear a station on 101.9 MHz playing music interspersed with revolutionary slogans and identifications as "Radio Samora Libre". I'm not 100% sure about the ID, but the name makes sense: Samora Machel, a Marxist, was the first president of independent Mozambique and remains a hero of the left, and this year is the 20th anniversary year of his death. Possibly a pirate, and this just may be co-incidental, but interesting to note that 101.9 MHz has been allocated for future use to Venezuelan armed forces radio, La Voz de la FAN, according to a newsagency report here http://www.aporrea.org/imprimir_noticia.php?docid=73702. You can hear a clip of Radio Samora Libre on the Interval Signal Online website (http://www.intervalsignals.net) or directly here: www.intervalsignals.net/files/ven-radio_samora_libre_170306.ram.

[HCDX] Another Radio Liberty!
SWAZILAND Observed via DX Tuners web receiver sited at Johannesburg, SA, fading in around 1600 UT 6 January 2006 and going ota around 0010 UTC the following day: A station broadcasting on MW 1377 kHz from Sandlane, SWZ, formerly known as Radio Cidade International, was observed variously identifying as "Liberty Radio" or "Radio Liberty, 1377 k of love" [yuk!]. Programming continues to be in Portuguese and English, with lots of music - including a show presented in Portuguese called "Cidade Tropical" - spiritual messages and some religious programming. Reception varied from poor to fair. A Google search only turned up one reference to the station - "Liberty Radio 13.77 AM" - with a programme guide, which didn't seem to bear much relation to what I was hearing, even allowing for local time (UTC +2).

[HCDX] Federated States of Micronesia radios go online
Public radio services from the four constituent states of the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) are accessible live online at www.fm, a website run by local telecom provider FSM Telecommunications Corporation. The following radio stations are available: Chuuk (formerly Truk) State - BWXX FM 89.5 (V6AK) Yap State - KUTE FM (V6AI) Kosrae State - Voice of Kosrae V6AJ Pohnpei (formerly Ponape) State - Voice of Pohnpei V6AH In addition to the live streams the entire programme output for the previous three days are nominally available on-demand as 18-hour audio files. However, when checked on 14 November it was found that this feature was actually only functioning for Yap station KUTE FM, and in the case of BWXX FM (Chuuk) both the live stream and the on-demand files were silent. All stations typically broadcast at 0600-2400 local time (UTC +10 hours Chuuk, Yap; UTC +11 hours Kosrae, Pohnpei). Programming is in indigenous languages and English, including some news and business programmes from overseas broadcasters such as the BBC and Radio Australia. Voice of Pohnpei V6AH has its own long-dormant website with programme schedules at www.fm/ppbc. The Federated States of Micronesia are part of the Caroline Islands archipeligo located in the Pacific Ocean, north east of Papua New Guinea. In the aftermath of World War II these islands formed part of the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands, a United Nations trusteeship under US administration, emerging as a separate political entity with the adoption of a constitution in 1979. Independence was attained in 1986 under a "Compact of Free Association" with the USA, an agreement providing guaranteed financial assistance from the US in return for certain defence rights. Maps, photos, links and a wealth of information on the FSM can be found on the tourist organization's attractive website at www.visit-micronesia.com.

[HCDX] Radio Kiribati goes online
Radio Kiribati apparently NOT on shortwave! The national broadcaster of the Pacific Ocean island of Kiribati, Radio Kiribati, can be heard live online at http://radio-tarawa.tskl.net.ki, via the Icecast open source audio streaming server. There are two streams available, a mono stream at a bitrate of 16 kbps and a stereo stream at 32 kpbs, both using the Ogg Vorbis multimedia streaming format. The station was observed signing-on at 1825 UTC on Friday 11 November 2005, opening with a choral version of the national anthem and identification in the local language, I-Kiribati, as "Aio Banaan Kiribati" [latter word is pronounced kir-ree-bass]. This was followed by a music programme presented in I-Kiribati, then a relay of BBC World Service news in English at 1900 after which there was Radio Kiribati's own "Local and District News" in English at 1920 UTC. It was noted that the interval signal/signature tune used with English identification announcements is a pan pipes version of Roxette's pop hit "It Must Have Been Love". The Radio Kiribati stream was silent when checked again at 0200 UTC the following day, but the last few minutes of the day's broadcast were caught shortly before closing at 1055 UTC with announcements in I-Kiribati and this announcement in English: "This is Radio Kiribati, the broadcasting service of Kiribati, in the Central Pacific. We're transmitting from Bairiki Atoll on a frequency of 846 kiloHertz, on 354.6 metres in the mediumwave band". Radio Kiribati (formerly Radio Tarawa) is currently the country's sole broadcaster. In 1998 an attempt to set up a commercial competitor, Newair FM101, failed to get off the ground when the radio station's directors were prosecuted for "importing telecommunications equipment without a permit". However, the station still hopes to obtain a licence and retains a website at http://www.users.bigpond.com/newairfm. The small independent nation of Kiribati is situated in the Pacific Ocean halfway between Hawaii and Australia. It was formerly known as the Gilbert Islands, part of the British colony of Gilbert and Ellice Islands, until the two island groups were separated and given autonomy in 1975 (the Ellice Islands becoming Tuvalu) then attained full independence in 1979. Kiribati today has 33 main islands occupying a land area of 811 square kilometres, scattered over an ocean area the size of the continental United States, with an estimated total population of around 103,000, including about 35,000 in Tarawa, the capital.

[HCDX] Voice of Guyana now live on the internet, and moving house
Two radio services from Guyanese public broadcaster National Communications Network (NCN) are now available streamed live online from the Homeview Guyana web site at www.homeviewguyana.com. Online listening of Voice of Guyana and Hot FM requires a subscription of 6 US dollars a month, however it's not clear if that is for both stations or just one. A free 10-minute "sampler" of either stream is offered on provision of an e-mail address (which they assure will not be passed on to a third party). I went for this and after a 30-second wait received a good-quality 8-minute feed of Voice of Guyana at 32 Kbps mono, with no buffering or other interruptions. The web site is in English and also includes a programme schedule, a history of NCN and its forerunners, and full contact details. In the past week Voice of Guyana has been observed most days commencing their own programming at a time varying between 0805 and 0830 UTC, following on from the overnight relay of BBC World Service. This was monitored with fair to poor reception on 3291.2 kHz via a DX Tuners.Com receiver situated near Caracas, Venezuela. In a Voice of Guyana broadcast monitored on Sunday 2 October the announcer mentioned that by the following Sunday they would "probably" be broadcasting from new studios in another part of town, rather than "the old broadcasting house on High Street". The history section of the web site alludes to this, stating that there are plans underway to have NCN's radio and TV services in the same building. Voice of Guyana has no connection with the UK-based web radio Voice of Guyana International. Regards, Dave Kernick ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is out.

[HCDX] Radio Station Pacific Ocean - in stereo!
Radio Station Pacific Ocean, in addition to being on 12065 kHz shortwave, is carried in parallel on Primorye Radio [aka "Radio 810"] on 810 kHz in Vladivostok. This service can be heard streamed live in stereo from the web site of Primorye TV & Radio at http://www.ptr-vlad.ru/tv&radio/listen/ There are five links to the audio stream on the page, however I find that only the 4th one in the list actually works. If you'd like to listen to a clip of RSPO signing-on at 0835 gmt go to Interval Signals Online at http://www.intervalsignalsonline.com, click on "What's New" and follow the link to the Russia page - in a very clear recording you can hear the subtleties of sound you've maybe not noticed when listening to it on shortwave, such as the sound of the sea lapping on the shore! Further down the page, there's a "vintage" clip of RSPO recorded round about 1998. Regards, Dave Kernick ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is coming out.

Re: [HCDX] 7260
The Arabic station on 7260 kHz at 1700 is RTT, Tunisia.

Re: [HCDX] Unidentified
This observation fits in with some of Noel's observations of the unidentified station on 7260 kHz, but not of course the "Indian/Middle Eastern" bit. I currently regularly hear Mongolian National Radio sign on at 2200 on 7260, 4830, 4895 kHz, haven't checked this in the afternoons yet. Their website states: The short wave radio network project provided by Japan grant aid is being implemented in 2003 at the RTVTCBS [Mongolian National Radio] , shall enable modern technical facilities of 50kWt short wave station in Ulaanbaatar, and 10kWt short wave stations in Altai and Murun available to broadcast the programs of the National Radio on two channels.
