Brazil 6090, Radio Bandeirantes, 0915-0935 Steady Portuguese comments
from a male person. At 0930 precisely, five time ticks. I found this
unusual
since most if not all stations do this on the top of the hour. Following
this,
canned promos heard. With a poor signal already, it is being covered
with noise. (Chuck Bolland, September 26, 2008)
Russia, 5920, Radio Rossii, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy, 0945-1040, This
is a network and parallel broadcast heard on 7200 KHz (Yakutsk) and
5940 KHz (Khabarovsk)too, with music and Russian comments between tunes.
At 0959 noted a live ID as "Radio Rossii" followed by program notes.
Parallism
(is that a word?) continues after the hour with news. Here on 5920, there's
no sign of
WBOH at this time. They'll probably fade in or sign on after 1000 UTC.(They
didn't. never heard them.) For listening, 7200 is the better of the three
freqs
with a good signal while 5920 is only poor. (Chuck Bolland, September 26,
2008)
Bolivia, 5996.29, Radio Loyola, 1010-1030, Have a very distinct carrier
here,
but audio is a toss up? With Radio Australia on 5995 KHz, I can "jiggle"
the knobs
and hear some sort of audio, but it may not be Loyola. Anyway, Loyola was
threshold to nil heard here. (Chuck Bolland, September 26, 2008)
Chile, 6110, Voz Cristana, 1023-1030 At tune in, noted instrumental music
from
the play "South Pacific". Immediately following this, a few comments in
Portuguese
from a male. Then back to more music. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland,
September 26, 2008)
Bolivia, 6134.83, Radio Santa Cruz, 1028-1035, Signal starting to fade out
for the
morning window. Noted a male and female in Spanish language comments. As
mentioned
signal wasn't very strong with only a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, September
26, 2008)

Good bye HCJBs steerable antenna
ECUADOR Good bye HCJBs steerable antenna. Last transmission on Tuesday Sept
30th at 0700-0730 UT German on 9740 kHz. The very special antenna will - not
be scrapped - but be removed and newly erected on HCA tx site Kununurra in
Australia in 2009.
Last LIVE program of HCJB's German editor Horst Rosiak-EQA on Saturday Sept
27th at 0700 UT 9740 kHz. Direct contact during that half hour from foreign
countries under
+593 9 7064393 or from Ecuador under domestic SMS-# 4351 HCJB.
e-mail contact via <hcjb @ andenstimme.org>
Horst Rosiak - Deutschsprachiger Dienst von Radio HCJB.
Liebe HCJB-Freunde und DXer,
die letzten Tage der einmaligen steuerbaren Antenne sind gezaehlt. Am
Dienstag, 30.09.2008 wird die letzte Sendung ueber diese Antenne gehen -
danach wird sie abgebaut. Ich betone immer wieder "abgebaut" und nicht
verschrottet :)
Wenn die Technik mitspielt (versuche Tontechniker, Programmierer der
Leitstelle, Produzent und Moderator ein einem zu sein), moechte ich eine
Live-Sendung am Samstag, 27.9.2008 um 0700 UT auf die Beine stellen. Nun,
0200est (Ortszeit) ist nicht meine beste Zeit am Tag, aber ich hoffe, es
wird ein schoenes Erlebnis fuer uns alle sein!
Hier in Ecuador hat HCJB mit der SMS-Nummer 4351 HCJB im Mobilnetz ein
leichtes Spiel, aber es klappt leider nicht vom Ausland her. Trotz
"herumspielen" habe ich keinen Zugang von aussen gefunden. Daher hier meine
private Mobilnummer, um aktiv an der Sendung teilzunehmen:
tel +593 9 7064393
Das "+" steht fuer die Wahl ins Ausland, z.B. in Deutschland waere es die
"00".
Wenn ihr eine Email schicken moechtet, dann nehmt bitte folgende Adresse:
<hcjb @ andenstimme.org>
Bei der letzten Live-Sendung hatten wir die unsere Standard-Emailadresse
angegeben und erfahren, dass sie zu traege war.
Warum diese Nachricht so kurzfristig? Da es mehr ein Ein-Mann Unternehmen
ist musste ich abschaetzen, ob der "Eine" (nach OP vor einigen Wochen) auch
fit ist :) Klar, etwas kann immer noch dazwischen kommen ...
Und zu guter Letzt: Iris Rauscher hat ja in den letzten Wochen schon einige
Hoerertreffen besucht (Frankfurt, Dresden, Villach). Im Oktober werde ich an
einer Konferenz in der Schweiz teilnehmen und habe dann in der Kalenderwoche
43 Zeit, DX-Clubs o.ae. in Deutschland zu besuchen.
Interesse? Bitte schreibt dann umgehend eine Email an
<hrosiak @ hcjb.org.ec>
Am besten die "Lesebestaetigung" aktivieren. In der letzten Zeit habe ich
die Erfahrung gemacht, das Mails leider nicht durchkamen.
Euch ein schoenes Wochenende!
Herzliche Gruesse aus Quito, euer Horst
(HCJB Horst Rosiak-EQA, via A-DX Sept 26)

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1
** AUSTRALIA. 2485, VL8K, Sept 26 at 1309, presumed, with M&W talk in English,
1310 music. Presumed, but what else could it be? PNG was in on 90m, Indonesia
on 75m. Also checked 2325 and 2310 but no other NT stations audible; there
were, however, some misc. carriers which could have been something local. Why
does Katherine do so much better than the others? Is there something about its
antenna or real power which give it an advantage? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. DentroCuban Jamming Command, 9640 with pulses against nothing at 0537
Sept 26. This frequency is used for only two hours earlier in the evening by R.
Rep?blica (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ERITREA. 8000, Sept 26 at 0540, some talk audible, poor-fair, but can`t be
sure of language or station. I can be sure it was not the off-frequency one on
7999.4 others have reported. It was, however, very slightly off 8000, judging
from pitch of BFO when compared to WWV 5000, 10000 and RHC 6000 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. AIR trans-polar signals improved somewhat equinoxially on 31m: Sept
26 at 1350, S Asian music, but none in // on different services, via Benguluru
on 9425, 9690, 9870; also on 11585 via Delhi-Khampur (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 3987, Sept 26 at 1301, weak music, and slightly on high side.
That matches the measurement by John Wilkins of reactivated RRI Manokwari on
3987.05. Also something on 3995, another Indonesian likely (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 3205, Sept 26 at 1302 with what sounded like a national
anthem, then open carrier so I figured R. West Sepik had signed off, but 1304
talk resumed.
3335, best presumed PNG signal this morning, Sept 26 at 1305 with music and
English(?) talk. 3325 had some music but that could also be Indonesia, but
nothing from PNG on 3365 or 3385, so they were off? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SINGAPORE. As I tuned across 7135, Sept 26 at 1345, music interrupted by a
5+1 timesignal, into unID language obscured by hams more interested in talking
than listening. Per Aoki this is BBC Burmese service opening at this hour. But
why would they run a timesignal at such an odd time, which is hourtop neither
UT nor Yangon? Does Greenwich supply such non-standard timesignals? Not
expecting it, was not prepared to measure how far off it was, but I think it
was a few seconds late anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9535 with open carrier, occasional tones, Sept 26 at 1348, VOA
Greenville warming up for 1400-1415 Spanish sports broadcast. If VOA aggregated
all the transmitter-hours wasted on these warmups, it could easily add an hour
or two of modulated English broadcasts in prime time to the Americas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1600 kHz with persistent het I have been hearing for years, somewhere
around 100-200 Hz, at 1338 Sept 26. On the longwire aimed toward Cushing OK,
the nearest 1600 station, KUSH was dominant, and had a SAH, so I think that was
close to 1600.00. Most likely culprit is KRVA in The Metroplex, which could
also be heard at times in Vietnamese, but difficult to correlate it with the
off-frequency.
BTW, the 2008 NRC AM Log shows address for this in Houston, while the 2007 NRC
AM Log had an address in Dallas. City of license remains Cockrell Hill, which
is on the west side of Dallas. So what has Houston got to do with it? Is it now
relaying a sister ethnic station there? Even so, doesn`t it have to maintain an
address somewhere near the COL? Phone number also changed during the year
(Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6068 approx., fair carrier but very little audio obscuring CFRX
6070, undermodulated, Sept 26 at 1251. Previously measured on 6066.6, but this
time judging from het it was more like 6068, but it went off at 1253 before I
could pin it down. This closing time makes it more likely to be Korea North
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Spanish talk. ID at 0638. Poor to fair. Very poor after 0658 due to
adjacent channel splatter. (Brian Alexander, PA)

Canada, 6160, CBC Radio One, 2335-2359 Noted a program of Political
commentary and
news. Also some music heard. At about 2355 a two or three minuted
Polictical commentary
given by a female. After this, another female said, "The preceeding
Political messages were
prepared by the Marajuana Party of ..." Missed the rest. ID followed as
"This is CBC Radio
