** CANADA [and non]. 6030, Dec 5 at 0640, ``Here Comes Santy Claus``, by cowboy
singer, Gene-Autry-like, or himself? No jamming for a change, allowing CFVP`s
hectowatt to penetrate from Calgary, two megameters away. However, from only
slightly further in the opposite direxion, overkill RHC English frequencies
nearby, 6010 and 6050, not to mention 6060 and 6125, were overloading and
desensitizing the FRG-7, so CFVP audible only at minor peaks (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Dec 5, before 1400:
15900, very poor at 1352
14970, very poor at 1349; none in the 16s, 17s, 18s
12230, JBA at 1354; none in the 13s
11500, poor at 1354; none in the 10s
9200, very good at 1355; none in the 7s
Before 1600:
9200, good at 1535; none higher up to 19 MHz by 1538
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 10000, Dec 5 at 1359, under strong WWV, hear CW ID for BPM, and I
thought a quick voice announcement instead of WWVH? Just before WWV voice
announcement (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9540, Dec 5 at 1357, tuning across RHC, caught partial frequency
announcement including ``13680`` which has been abandoned this season. 1358
asserts ``las nueve de la ma?ana en todo el territorio nacional`` and starting
`news`. They should turn on Radio Reloj in the RHC studios to find out what
time it really is. Furthermore it`s rhetorical fluff always to say ``all over
the country``. Of course it`s the same time all over Cuba, in one single
timezone. But let`s hope the time is two minutes fast only at RHC. At least
this station has never employed timesignals, which would be far beyond its
capabilities to convey correctly (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** FRANCE [and non]. 5925, Dec 5 at 0634, RFI news in French // 7390, so strike
not in effect here at the moment.
17690, Dec 5 at 1601, RFI Musique already replacing news in Spanish, VG signal
now as during previous airing at 1400 on exactly same parameters, 250 kW, 305
degrees from GUIANA FRENCH, including southern/eastern USA among official CIRAF
targets. HFCC says 1600-1630 is M-F only, while Aoki says both are sevendays.
Announcement in French, not Spanish, at 1603 reminds us that RFI en Phnom Penh
is on four-score-and-twelve MHz. 1608 playing Aretha in a song similar to
R-E-S-P-E-C-T.
15300 direct checked at 1606 is newsing in French, unstricken (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA SOUTH [and non]. 6600, Dec 5 at 1349, Korean talk well atop noise
jamming, which is unusual, and almost as much on // 6518, i.e. V. of the
People, clandestine from the South to the North, altho Aoki says it`s 50 kW
non-direxional, vs 250 kW from each jammer. Hmm, since does not broadcast in
English, we ought to learn its Korean ID as in WRTH 2011: ``Inmin-e sori
pangsong-imnida``, or ISPI, which would be an appropriate initialism for a
station really run by the S. Korean National Intelligence Service! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. 7245, Dec 5 at 0639 and last check 0650, still not on the air
this date; you never know whether they will be on late, on early, or not at
all. Yet, when on, there does not seem to be anything wrong with the
transmitter, and spot-on frequency. Are there severe power supply unreliability
problems even in the capital Nouakchott? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Sunrise MW DX December 5, UT, only poor signals with no big SRS
boost at the moment:
700, Dec 5 at 1319 UT, poor signal with 8-note tune on fiddle repeated over and
over almost like an IS; 1320 gobierno federal PSA, 1321 another similar tune.
1325 a few words in unknown language, then repetitive drumming; fading by 1330.
Sounds quite rustic, an indigenous station? Most likely XEETCH, La Voz de los
Tres Rios, Etchojoa, Sonora, which 2011 IRCA Mexican log says broadcasts in
Spanish, Mayo [sic], Yaqui and Garijio. BTW, I previously logged this in late
November 2010, but it was erroneously published in Dec 2011 CIDX Messenger as a
2011 log, along with several others.
Another indigenous on 700 is XEXPUJ, X`pujil, Campeche, La Voz de la Sierra
Norte [sic], LV del Coraz?n de la Selva, in Spanish, Mayan and Choi languages
--- but it`s a bit late in the day for it, and my log was looping WSW. How in
the world do you pronounce X`pujil?
710, Dec 5 at 1320 UT, ad or promotion mentions an auditorio [building, not
audience] somewhere, ``B-M Radio``, so XEDP in Ciudad Cuauht?moc, Chihuahua,
briefly atop QRM, KGNC? This slogan/corporate name is not found in the IRCA
Log, but here`s a view: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/8957899
730, Dec 5 at 1323 UT, Radio Viva Villa singing ID, i.e. XEHB, San Francisco
del Oro, a.k.a. Hidalgo del Parral, Chihua2; as heard better many October
mornings. Its very name could be construed as anti-American (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN [non]. 6875, Dec 5 at 0638, RTI still in German instead of Spanish
via WYFR (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15825, Dec 5 at 1604, WWCR-1 seems to have cleaned up its signal, not
splattering over half the 19m band, but how about the plus/minus 15.6 kHz
spurs? I can still detect JBA carriers just below 15810 and above 15840;
fundamental is strong but not super-strong at the moment which would bring up
the spurs, and possibly the splatter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Date: Sunday, December 4, 2011, 9:20 PM
** CHINA. Firedrake Dec 4, before 2400:
16700, fair at 2357; none in the 17s, 18s
16100, very good at 2357
14970, fair at 2359
13920, fair at 2359-2400*; none in the 12s
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9810, Sunday Dec 4 at 2352 UT, middle repeat airing of RHC`s `En
Contacto` in progress as Manolo conveys good news that the special QSL cards
designed by a Guatemalan listener, commemorating Manolo & Malena`s 35th
anniversary on RHC (tho she has now retired/withdrawn), of which only ten were
printed, have been reprinted, so it`s not too late to send a report and get one
of those rarities. Responding to an inquiry, Manolo mentions something else
that gets my attention: in giving the new times for EC since Nov 13, he says
that Cuba`s time change was on that date.
I thought it was Oct 30, as in previous years it was the last Sunday in
October; in 2010: Oct 31. I`m quite sure that when I checked
http://www.timeanddate.com/time/dst/2011.html
in late October 2011, it did show Oct 30, 2011, but now it too shows Sunday Nov
13, 2011 as the DST end date. So that explains why RHC`s Spanish and some of
its other programming abruptly shifted one real UT hour later on that date. Why
Nov 13? Just to be out of step with the Great Satan, er, I mean Imperalismo
Yanqui; and the rest of the world.
It does not explain why any serious international SW service would be governed
by local time changes --- either stay on UT constantly, or change on the dates
in your target area(s), NOT local time, which should be irrelevant (unless you
are really talking to yourselves). Nor does it explain why any DST is necessary
in a tropical country where there is little variation in sunrise-sunset times.
Manolo gave these Sunday times for EC: 1435, ``sobre 2340``, meaning
approximately --- must have started around then this week, but some weeks
already at 2335; and 0235 [UT Mondays].
I had started listening on 9810, then found 9710 was stronger, but modulation
there cutting out below peaks; skipping 25m, 13690 was better, and 13640 was
best. Why would the European antenna roughly 90 degrees off from here surpass
the S American antenna, roughly opposite from here? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 89.5 MHz, Dec 3 at 1830 UT, parked near the intersexion of West OK
Garriott and Oakwood Rd, after consuming three free pancakes at IHOP, there is
a fully-quieted strong signal here with hum. I assume it is a nearby car with
an RF feeder left on. In the next hour I drive a mile west and a mile east and
I am still hearing it, altho starting to lose out. That`s a lot of range for an
RF feeder. Then Dec 4 at 2150 I am again hearing it as far as another two-three
miles east, toward downtown Enid.
FCC FM Query for OK does not show any likely sources; there is a 205-watt CSN
satellator in OKC, which is enough to block 50 kW KWGS Tulsa from getting into
the OKC area, but that can`t be what I am getting in Enid. Must keep an ear on
89.5. See DXLD 11-18 where I had another 89.5 carrier last May, discovered
right across the street from IHOP at Braum`s dairy store. If it keeps up I
really must try to track it down exactly. Or maybe someone`s `part 15` warming
up for an Xmas sound and light show like we had last winter? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 6055, Dec 5 at 0007 I notice that REE`s English hour is instead dead
air, open carrier. I leave a receiver on there for a bihour: no automatic
timesignal at 0030, FWIW. Still DA past 0100 when would normally go into
Castilian, still DA at 0145; finally at 0152 Spanish modulation cuts on, and
timesignal is back at 0200. Someone finally woke up at Noblejas. Fortunately
for regular listeners, I think the English shows for Sundays are just repeats
from earlier in the week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 9430, Dec 4 at 2348, Xmas music with organ has taken over
9425 where I had been listening to Hindi comedy music, including yodeling a
bihour earlier in the madrugada there. It`s // 9355, 15400, and best by far
15440. So YFR is still emitting only one program stream from Okeechobee, due to
``meltdown`` of automation system a few weeks ago, all English instead of
Spanish, Portuguese, French or English as originally scheduled for B-11 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1593 monitoring: starting 0333 UT Monday Dec 5
confirmed on Area 51 webcast,
http://www.splatterbox.us:5110/listen.pls
following Larry Will`s Free Radio (Live) program; and presumably also on WBCQ
5110v-CUSB. This was a last minute change, after announcement that WOR could no
longer be carried after 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

As usual, incomplete info from Arnie: so what frequency does 6000 replace? As
in DXLD 11-46, the `original` Nov 13 schedule had three of them on during that
single hour: 12-13 6010 6140 6150 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
