[HCDX] MW logs from this evening
555 ST KITTS AND NEVIS, ZIZ, Basseterre OCT 24 0304 UTC+++ - with reggae music and Caribbean-accented announcer with rhythmic chatter during the reggae segment with TALKOVER effect. Up and down, but fair-good on peaks and quite easily listenable with very slow fadings. As I write this, it has faded down. (Chiochiu-QC) 760 COLOMBIA, HJAJ, RCN Cadena Basíca, Barranquilla OCT 24 0245 UTC - with a men and a woman talking about the developpement of true Colombian salsa music which is authentic and has a fairly different set of typical melodies and harmonies than foreign salsa music. They begun to play a fairly uninspired (to me) salsa tune) when they faded out to be replaced by weak residual WJR which was nulled out with the Sanyo MCD-S830 barefoot perpendicular to the N-S. (Chiochiu-QC) Bogdan's note: some of the objectivaly and artistically most prided salsa dura comes from the city of Cali. I wish I didn't had 990 as an adjacent-channel obstacle to 980 RCN, which would be in // with 1000 Cartagena and 760 Barranquilla. Well, it's been quite some time since I've last heard from ZIZ-555 with such a beautifool signal... Bogdan Chiochiu using his trusty Sanyo MCD-S830 receiver barefoot. I'm looking forward buying an antenna to enhance reception in the 800s and 900s where a lot of my favorite Latin American targets are during auroras. Still tried of listening to the same 1 or 2 TAs, such as Spain-585 which is difficult to follow. Even when they are very strong, they sound a tiny bit muffed. On october 23rd, 19 years ago, back in 1989, Aventure FM went off the air for good to be replaced by MaXXimum. Anyone has any recorded broadcast or airchecks from the BEST RADIO STATION IN THE WORLD ? May the good DX be with you !

[HCDX] MW Logs from the past night
1160 UNITED STATES, SEP 11 0106 EDT - News Talk 11-60 WNWE. I don't seem to find anything at all matching what I've heard, though I'm not sure of the second letter; may have been WNWA - wich ends in the same soudn as E or WMWA. The third letter was W like the first one and there seem to be an E sound at the end. Didn't had the tape running though ! (Chiochiu-QC) 1220 US unID, SEP 11 0108 EDT - while trying for XEB heard rap gospel and light pop gospel as well as man and woman talking and laughing a bit, then man about Jesus Christ (a masochist, by the way !) followed by a phone-in from a listener Hi ! How are you doing ? then very short talk with him followed by music. Signal strenght up and down ranging from fairly good to extremely threshold. Occasionnal QRM from apparent Cleveland. Any ideas ? (Chiochiu-QC) Pan-American DX 610 CUBA, CMMA, Radio Rebelde, Guantanamo SEP 11 0456 UTC - A rather threshold signal fading in and out of nothing with salsa music, // 600 and 5025. 1180 had only fair-strenght remains of nulled WHAM with nothing under. Haven't heard this one in years, in fact, since the fall of 2000 when I officially started DX'ing. Colombia was also semi-regular in 2000-2001 here. (Chiochiu-QC) 640 GUADELOUPE, Radio Guadeloupe SEP 11 0654 UTC - Very poor reception with FF nx and what sounded like announcements of upcoming programs. QRM mainly, at this time, mostly from an unID US middle-of-the-road station (didn't sound at all like WNNZ, CFYR, Progreso or Union Radio !). By the way had Progreso here earlier, but with a rather threshold, fading and messy signal. The first non-Cuban and non-RVC DX this season BELOW 910 kHz this season ! (Chiochiu-QC) I only sleeped about 5 hours and a half the past night, as I was excited due to the Auroral condx. Aside from the unID domestics, especially the one on 1220 (I'd especially appreciate any help on this), no big surprises. On foreign DX, Cuba-610 and Guadeloupe-640 were fairly nice, but I expected some Venezuelans and / or Colombians. Generally, condx were very poor toward both domestic and Latins. By 3 AM EDT when I went to bed, the Auroral condx got even more intenses with even the upper end signals in the 1400's very poor. The GY channels had a weak rumble on them. Well, that's it for now ! I'll try to encode some of my recent DX including the 1220 apparent southern domestic into real-audio later today, Be the good DX stuff with you, Bogdan Chiochiu ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is out.

[HCDX] MW Logs from this morning
Hello to all of you ! Despite getting to bed after mid-night last night, I had a nightmare that made me anxious and made me wake up a little bit after 4:00 AM. It's the first time I really intensively DXed in months. I got a new one: CHOK in Sarnia over the CBA pest along with tentative KNX (wich I never heard); this indicates I should do much more listening before sunrise than I used to do. Here are the logs. After I sent it, I'll go back to DX for a couple of hours, until the last skywave signals fade out on the AM band. 530 TURKS AND CAICOS, Radio Vision Cristiana, Caicos JAN 2 1018 - Still excellent with Spanish gospel music and man announcer. (Chiochiu-QC) 670 CUBA, CMQ, Radio Rebelde, Arroyo Arrenas JAN 2 1021 - Son music at poor-fair level, // 5025 (fair-good) and 600. (Chiochiu-QC) 1070 CANADA, CHOK, Sarnia, Ont JAN 2 0606 EST - Good end of a 70's mid-tempo song with some synthesizer, then promo for the morning team on ...information station, CHOK. Very good signal with not even the faintest trace of CBA for a minute or so, then CBA did come-back until about 0613 when both stations faded down ! (Chiochiu-QC) 1070 USA, KNX, Los Angeles, CA JAN 2 0613 - Woman with nx and woman on the phone; very weak signal, too weak to understand. Equal level with CBA and CHOK wich both faded down. (Chiochiu-QC) I'm back to the dials ! 73 and good DX, Bogdan Equipment: Sanyo MCD-S830 with internal ferrite bar antenna QTH: Montreal's West Island (Pierrefonds-Est), Quebec, Canada ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is coming out.

All times/dates GMT. 530 OVER FLORIDA WATERSPACE R Martí (via the 193rd PANG PsyOps aircraft) - 2213-2250 30 October, alone and local level, definitely the first local Saturday since Hurricane Ivan in mid-September and the wave of hurricanes thereafter forced this once to deactivate. Usual Spanish commentaries and news, // 6030, et. al. Thanks Gerry Bishop for the phone alert tip. Recheck around 2330 had Radio Visión Cristiana dominating over Martí. 1060 CUBA R Veinteseis, unknown site, Matanzas - 0858+ 31 October w/ female Esta es Radio Veinteseis... 1060 kiloHertz, desde Matanzas... 5 de la mañana. Brief chatter by man, then into boleros. So, the first clear confirmation that Cuba didn't switch off of Daylight Time. 1122.8 UNIDENTIFIED (CUBA?)- 0904+ 31 October, big, warbling FM grinding blob noted here, no real audio detected. Still present 1600+, so suspect a malfing Cuban transmitter, especially since noted pre/post local MW day/night power and pattern potential spurious sources. Anyone outside of Tampa Bay able to confirm? Exact frequency hard to determine, if there really is one. 1172.7 UNIDENTIFIED - 0905+ 31 October, threshold music.

Presume one of these (or the below) is not WKIZ, Key West, that is if they are still talk (ex-Spanish format). A domestic English or two also popping up at times. 1500.05 UNIDENTIFIED - 0935+ 31 October, Spanish man, nondescript Spanish vocals. At times, fair level on fade-ups. Not WPSO, as they were on-frequency at 1630 check, though with only brief blips of Greek audio every minute or two, something wrong with their feed or board patch. ** Terry L Krueger Clearwater, Florida USA 27.55.83 N, 82.46.08 W Visit my Florida Low Power Radio Stations at: http://home.earthlink.net/~tocobagadx/flortis.html ** ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2005 is coming out.

Insomnia till about 3 a.m. last night after the Ringo show resulted in a little MW scanning. Nothing much, just oddities. All times/dates GMT. 1020 UNIDENTIFIED 0450-0532 8/17. Nonstop classical music fading in and out of the Cuban buzz jammer and the Kreyol format station in Kendall, FL. My first thought was Musical Nacional on a new channel. And while it could be, no parallels located and 590 seemingly silent. Musical used to close around local midnight or 1 a.m. Anyone know if that is still the case? 1050 UNIDENTIFIED (no doubt USA) 0510+ 8/17. All-80's power pop such as Toto's Hold the Line and Asia's Heat of the Moment and an obscure Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark song. Weird language M (almost sounded Slavic). Fair, with XEQOO Radio Pirata in Cancn sometimes dominating. Ideas? 1310 CUBA Radio Enciclopedia 0553+ 8/17. Briefly up with usual EZL music and canned female ID, patter. Unknown het on high side. 1310.37 UNIDENTIFIED Latin American 0553-0602 8/17. Spanish ballads, very poor. 1540 BAHAMAS ZNS1, Nassau - 0535+ 8/17. Weird, a couple of years ago I recall hearing them track Billy Joel's River Of Dreams album in its' entirety. So whadda ya know, tonight I stumbled upon them tracking Joel's The Stranger and across the top-of-the-hour. Is there some hidden meaning here, or could there be a closet Billy fan working graveyard in central New Providence? 1669 UNIDENTIFIED 0532-0535 8/17. Huge buzzing blob noted on 1670, actually seemed more like 1669 when in sideband. No audio. Anyone else hearing this? 87.9 MHz FLORIDA (PIRATE) Mlodie FM Tampa. Mlodie appears to be the correct slogan for this one, not Unit FM as I originally thought. Quite a few ID's noted 0330+ 8/17 while driving home from St. Petersburg. Usual Kreyol format.

[HCDX] MW logs and comments from the past evening (January 13)
Hello ! Solar conditions seemed fairly low the last evening (January 13 - early AM Jan. 14 UTC), not enough to make St.-Pierre-1375 audible, but too low to make any decent or even sub-par Latin American reception possible. The only real action and signal I could identify was from Guadeloupe-640 mixing with the 2 other regulars (WNNZ and YVQO Union Radio). But, I could enjoy at times a very strong signal from CKEC-1320, my favorite canadian station. If anyone, especially those far-away in the west (such as Patrick Martin with your big Eastern Beverage) would like to log NS, I think CKEC in New Glasgow would be your best bet. QTH: Montreal/Pierrefonds, Quebec, Canada Equipment: Sanyo MCD-S830 w/ ferrite antenna Note: Latin American DX is reported inUTCand Domestic DX is reported in Easternstandard Time. Pan-American DX: 640 Guadeloupe, Pointe-à-Pitre JAN 14 0307 - Man in FF with what sounded likenx. Barely audible with heavy QRM from WNNZ and even weakers Venezuela/probable Cuba, but the only Latin Americanchannel to produce readable audio last night (RVC-530 was barely hetting with bits of audio against the adjacent computer QRM from our neighborhood). Also 760 was producing bits of Colombian audio from(RCN Barranquilla) around 0157in a tight WJR null, but definitively sub-standard reception. (Chiochiu-QC) The last Sunday night conditions were just as poor. Domestic DX: 630 WPRO (Providence, RI) JAN 13 - noted in passing with nearly always an excellent signal during the mid-evening period with not much evidence of CHLT Sherbrooke. They are nightly visitors in the Montreal area, of course, with usually good to very good signals, but not that often LOCAL-like, like they were the past night. (Chiochiu-QC) 1320 CKEC (New Glasgow, NS) JAN 13 1852 - with the DJ talking about a Canadian song they just played (probably by Alanis Morissette) and sayed it's "on CKEC, Radio New Glasgow" followed by commercial ads. Verygood at the time. Also playeda BackStreet Boys song a few minutes later.Signal was fading a bit of times and theywere a few occasions when both this and even CJMR ethnic "pest"wasn't audible.But, generally speaking they were the dominant station last night on my QTH - often peakedvery close to LOCAL-like. (Chiochiu-QC) Didn't try for CKBC-1360, altough I should ! The strongest low-band NYCer that is always LOCAL-like at night seems to be WFAN-660 (but due to it's lower frequency more often completly inaudible during intense AU activity, than WABC-770 interestingly -I may need some aurora soon either or some extremely good high-latitude condx, otherwise French Quebecers and USA talkers all over the AM dial at night). As always, except for very good nights, domestic DX is rather boring here - so many crowded frequencies, so many patience to hear stations not that far away. But, some interesting Maritime Canadians music stations, like CKEC, somespanish domestics, some gospel singing stations,as well as, very occasionally, even some talkers under certain circomstances (such as during the September 11 terrorist attacks when neary everone on the dial had interesting talk-shows)still keep me on the dials even when Latin American signals are almost non-existent. And still some domestic signals often behave like Latins - very often WSB is just as strong as RCR, but of course Atlanta is much farther away(and much more exciting and challenging) as is WSM in Nashville, TN to hear thana clear/regional pest in New Englandor Toronto like WPRO-630, CZYR-640, WABC-770 or WBZ-1030 wich covers pretty much all the other interference on their channel in their direction. If I tryed to listen before I goed to school today at 5:45AM up to 7AM (I leave around 7:20), I could perphaps hear some west-coast domestics. Maybe another day ? I will try to do some patient listening around local dawn, just before I leave for school- even with my unaided Sanyo receiver - maybe I could hear something on clear frequencies (there isn't much too strong on either 1570 or 1580, so maybe I could bag VOA-1575 ?) and maybe 4QD-1548. After all, Ray Moore in FL has heard trans-Pacific stuff even on simple equipment (he obviously have a Drake R8B wich is better than my Sanyo, but only use a loop antenna !). At least I could get some SAH - it may be something. Obviously, I can forget about Tahiti-738 wich has been logged by Bruce 2 years ago - you know what CKAC-730 is even without telling about it, but there is always something interesting in DX'ing and something that lead us to the limits - see by myself what is the hardest reception possible:mainland Central AMerican (i.e.: Guatemala, Costa Rica, etc...),deep-South America, west-coast domestic, trans-atlantic, trans-pacific, trans-polar, long-path, etc...Everything is possible during the right conditions. With the equipment I have now I may get some Central Americans and possible some deeper-SA, but I know TAs and
