CANADA/CUBA/INDIA 13640 AIR Bangalore in Arabic propagating poor today
Dec 13. Only tiny S=4 signal, just above threshold, noted here on various
remote SDR units in Italy, Netherlands, and close to London-UK. Only signal
in Greece was stronger of AIR Bangalore in Arabic.
Very late at 19.31:10 UT RHC carillon/piano interval signal opened, equal
signal level of RHC and AIR here in Europe, S=4 tonight, up to poor S=6 and
very noisy background. Difference between RHC and RCI Sackville next door
(see below) was -100 to -60dBm.
13650 Much, much stronger RCI Sackville in French, well propagating by 250
kW of power, S=9+25 to +30dB here in Europe at 1905 UT Dec 13, but decreased
to S=9 at 1950 UT.
Reception and propagation tonight is not typical at least, not to compare
with Glenn's reception on previous day.
US Radio Marti in Spanish on 11930 kHz at southerly azimuth from Greenville,
North Carolina is much stronger than RHC 13640 kHz, so at least in months
Dec to mid March - 13 MHz is too high on Cuba to Europe path.
To avoid RHC-AIR clash on 13640 kHz, would suggest to use any 11 MHz 25 mb
instead, there are lots of empty channels at night.

CUBA [and non]. 13640, Dec 12 at 1947 check, huge collision between
roughly equal bigsigs from RHC and AIR, both broadcasting to Europe in
French, as has been the case since Nov 7 frequency changes by RHC. Both
are outlaw stations, refusing to participate in HFCC, so serves them right
for not coördinating, but pity the poor listeners in Europe. I suspect the
500 kW, 300 degrees from Bangaluru have the advantage in Europe. Aoki
claims the French segment from RHC at 1930-2000 is 100 kW, nondirexional,
while Portuguese and Arabic after 2000 are on 53 degrees. How much longer
will this go on? Both stations are obstinate, and we know Arnie doesn`t
ever want to admit he made a mistake. Reports, please, from Europe on how
the mix is over there at 1930-2030.
