RE: [HCDX] Re: Antipodal Focusing

2003-09-05 Thread Marcelo Toniolo


Hello Glenn

Perhaps this was a misunderstanding and Thomas used incorrect words to
explain a correct thinking.
I just checked GeoClock and a Sunrise in Florida at this time of the
year corresponds to almost a perfect Sunset in Bangkok, Thailand.

Yes, Thailand is not geographically antipodal of USA but they match a
Sunset/Sunrise Gray Line and this explains the good propagation noticed
by Thomas.

Sorry to break this to you, but Thailand is nowhere near antipodal from
the 
US. For starters both are in the Northern Hemisphere... Unfortunately
there 
is little land on the opposite side of the globe from the USA --- in the

Indian Ocean.

Yes Radio Thailand on 7260 kc at my local sunrise sure is stable here in

Central Florida, even more so then R. Australia on 9580 kc. There is a 
propagation mode called anti-podal focusing. If you are at or very near
the 
opposite side of the planet from the station you are receiving from and
the 
aurora ovals are retracted, the RF signal can travel on all available 
geometric (GC) great circle paths, all coming together at the opposite
side 
of the planet and adding up to a big signal. Antipodal focusing may
explain 
Radio Thailand's big signal here in the U.S. Antipodal focusing is best
at 
the fall/spring equinox of which we are fast approaching.
  A neat HF propagation project would be to keep track of Radio
Thailand's 
7260 kc signal every morning at local sunrise here in the U.S. for 365
days 
and plot it's signal strength versus the Ap index.

Your computer has been infected by the [EMAIL PROTECTED]  virus. You
can find below a link to Symantec site where there are instructions on
how to remove it from an infected computer.  
 
The solution involves some changes on the Registry of your computer
therefore if you have a limited knowledge in Windows I would recommend
you to ask someone else more knowledgeable to follow these instructions
otherwise you may permanently damage your Operational System.

Thank you very much for all your encouragements as to continue this
really wonderfull hobby !
 
As for the radios, in the beginning of September, I should have the
Sanyo MCD-S830 repaired and toward the end of the month my mother will
have trips to Austria and Romania and will look for a Sangean ATS808A
portable that have a tape recorder built-in and SSB capabilities too.
 
Now into a virus issue: I have Norton and BullGuard installed (the later

to know why this message keeps coming 20 times in a row, often block my
e-mail that I`m writing and sometimes prevents me from receiving e-mail
from the lists I`m suscribing to and my DX friends among others. Here is
what it looks like:

wonder how I can avoid to receive this message. It came each time from a
different e-mail address and user (ex.: Sherefa, Sherefa6, Maria,
Fairooz, Dee; Sherefa00 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Maria

It seems that you are not really committed to the hobby...a "real" DX'er
would never say that he/she will give up with the hobby just because
his/her tape recorder with microphone is broken. 

Since I started on the hobby 25 years ago I have been through so many
difficulties and problems that you can't imagine and I am still enjoying
the short waves, even now I am having problems with space to have a
better antenna, electrical interference and other things.

I am sure you can do some fine DX with a simple receiver and wait until
you have an opportunity to have a better one. And...I suggest you to
invest some money and purchase a good anti virus for your computer.
Nowadays this is a must for everyone who's connected to the Internet.

And as re-listening to high-quality DX tape recorders when I have
nothing to do and DX isn`t coming in is what I almost always do, as to
not be frustrated by this thinking, I think I`ll stop DX`ing forever and
in my free times I will download freestyle and dance music form the 80`s
and 90`s instead of listening to boring domestic talk programs from
stations less than 1000 kilometers away wich is the only thing my other
radios with tape (other than the Sanyo MCD-S830) can pick up. 

And I will abandon shortwave DX`ing, because the microphoen tape
recorder borke down.

Sorry for not rewriting my complete e-mail with what happened exactly to
my Audiovox microphone recorder wich I used to capture shortwave DX from
my Sangean 606, but I`m not stupid to rewrite facts a second time.

RE: [HCDX] Is Computer Logging DX?

2003-08-14 Thread Marcelo Toniolo


Last year I had a disagreement with Glenn Hauser about exactly the same
subject.
On that occasion someone from USA sent Gleen a message saying he had got
a verification (QSL) from Liechtenstein. I thought Radio Liechtenstein
was on Shortwave but for my frustration Glenn told me that this "DX er"
had heard the station over the Internet.

Well, I still consider QSL'ing a radio station over the WEB something
stupid.  If RNZI wants to reply this message I would suggest them to
send an "email QSL" confirming the "WEB DX" or whatever you want to call
it.

If we start accepting this kind of thing we could find ourselves in a
ridiculous situation where the radio will virtually disappear and will
be replaced by a computer. If this is the case, how about if I start
reporting and QSL'ing TV stations that I catch on Cable ?

2003-06-07 Thread Marcelo Toniolo


For the last few weeks I have been able to hear only a few stations on
Tropical bands, most of them from India and China.
However, I noticed today a complete change. The propagation is totally open
for Central and South America and also for Papua New Guinea.

These are some of the several stations I heard in the past hour:

3279,6  06/07   La Voz del Napo, Tena. OM singing and praising the virgin Mary
(note: with respect to the singer and   the virgin Mary I have 
to say that
the guy was a terrible singer). 1025. 24322
GUATEMALA
478006/07   Radio Coatán, Coatán (note: the speaker identified the 
station
as Radio Coatán, not as Radio   Cultural). National 
anthem (?) and OM in

[HCDX] RWANDA (tent) - 6055

2002-11-11 Thread Marcelo Toniolo



 
 
I think I heard 
Rwanda yesterday on 6055 kHz.  The frequency was busy with a program in 
French language from Radio Slovakia International until a few minutes before 
2100 UTC. Right after R. Slovakia s/off I heard a national anthem that 
finished at 2101 and the carrier remained for a while.
I compared the 
anthem I heard (that was a sang anthem) with the anthem I have in MIDI format 
and they seem to be very similar but I am not totally sure.
 
Has anybody ever 
heard Radio Rwanda on this frequency around 2100 UTC ?
 
Thanks

Hi John

I am sure it is Radio Ethiopia, Gedja.
I have heard them several times on this frequency and the xylophone ID and
music is typical Ethiopian music.

I heard a station broadcasting in english on 7,110.0 khz with very bassy
audio, very difficult to understand from 0330z to 0400z. SIO about 333.
Music
sometimes sounded african, other times jazzy organ/piano. There was an
interval signal at 0400z that sounded like a xyxlophone then into possibly
arabic language. Couldn't find any parallel frequencies as listed in the ILG
database.

I'm thinking Radio Uganda, but I can't find any references that anybody else
has heard them on this frequency.

I have a few short .wav files at this address:

Ideas?

[HCDX] 7.7 MHz - Arabic ?

2002-09-03 Thread Marcelo Toniolo



Does anybody know 
about a station broadcasting in Arabic (could be another language) on 7.7 MHz 
(more or less) ?
 
I got last night 
this station at 03:21 UTC on 7707 kHz. The interesting thing is that after a few 
minutes the frequency changed. At 03:21 it was on 7698 kHz. At 03:32 UTC it was 
on 7693.8 kHz.

[HCDX] ADDRESSES OF UTILITY RADIO STATIONS

2002-06-30 Thread Marcelo Toniolo



Does anybody know where I can find a book or list of addresses of Utility
Stations ?
I purchased the 2002 GUIDE TO UTILITY RADIO STATIONS and unfortunately they
are no longer publishing the list. In 1993, when I bought the same guide,
there was a very good list with addresses from hundreds of stations.

I wrote a message to Klingenfuss and he replied to me (see below) saying
that he is not going to publish the list anymore.

Thanks in advance.

Marcelo





scusate signore ma in questi tempi of continuous telecom bankrupts and
takeovers etc it is impossible to track the address of a radio station, es
explained in the foreword to the station list. by consequence, we can't
publish an up-to-date address list any longer, so: no list!#

nice to see you satisfied with the quality of our products

for latest screenshots of wavecom digital data decoders (including red
cross kandahar and kismayoo - probably the next target ...) see our
hotfrequencies webpage updated D A I L Y !
