[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 29, 2012
** CANADA. 960, as every night by 0559 UT, I am tuned to 960 to hear what I can during local KGWA`s pentaminute Fox-hole of dead air, which almost always happens, but occasionally not. The open carrier is so strong a couple miles away that I don`t expect to hear anything except when I null it very tightly on the DX-398, but at 0600 Dec 29 as I am rotating the radio for the null, I hear ``owned and operated by Rogers Communications``, and this is *not* in the KGWA null --- hey, I bet it`s CFAC in Calgary, which has to penetrate thru KGWA to reach me. WRTH and NRC AM Log don`t bother with who owns what, so I uplook Wiki later to confirm that Rogers does indeed own CFAC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CFAC CFAC is 50 kW, non-dir day, but direxional at night with a broad pattern centred toward the NNW with a deep null toward Enid, and hardly anything from eastward, clockwise to west-southwestward: http://transition.fcc.gov/ftp/Bureaus/MB/Databases/AM_DA_patterns/305752-54653.pdf But not tonight! Since 960 was originally a regional channel in the USA, I suppose CFAC is not protecting any particular stations, just supposed to keep its signal out of the western and central USA in general. Yet another Canadian which doesn`t bother to observe its night parameters as required by international agreements. Well, I`m glad to hear it this once thru my local, a neat catch, but obviously not worth listening to with its stupid sports format, as Calgarians seem to agree by its low ratings cited in the Wikipedia article. Since I was getting CFAC, also checked 1010 for ``CBR`` but the bilingual Arizona gospel huxter was dominant, also day facilities at night; see U S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA [and non]. 17495, Dec 29 at 0040, music and non-standard Chinese, lite fading and lite echo. Aoki shows it`s CRI in Cantonese, -0057, 500 kW, 193 degrees from Beijing site, to be followed by Amoy from 0100. 17645, Dec 29 at 0041, different Chinese than 17495, and with more fading. Only listed is VOA Std Chinese via Tinang, PHILIPPINES during this hour only; and then found // 15385 from same. 17645 has additional QRM, weak music under, maybe Firedrake. The main 17645 and 15385 signals heard here are more likely to be CNR1 jamming than VOA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake Dec 29 before 0100, searched for after hearing CRI on 17495: 16920, poor at 0043 16600, very good at 0043 15970, very good at 0044 14400, poor at 0048 with flutter 13850, good at 0050 12870, fair at 0050 12370, poor at 0050 12320, fair at 0051; none in the 11s, 10s, 17s or 18s (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CROATIA [non]. 7375, Dec 29 at 0300 I make a point of listening to `Croatia Today`, which will be removed from SW as of January 1. Reception via Nauen, GERMANY is not very good, poor signal with fading. The news items are punxuated by stingers between them, ending at 0309.5 and into weather; 0310.5 repeat top stories; 0311 here it is: the announcement that Voice of Croatiai will no longer be on SW, with best regards, so keep listening on MW, satellite, internet. Then recitation of full schedule including satellite particulars; 0313 into music. So now we have only two or three more nights to hear Croatia on SW, with English also at 2315 when aimed only to S America. Instead of 8 hours a day to the Americas, why not give us, say, one hour a day via a transmitter we can hear reliably, like WHRI, including the 5-15 minutes in English – or just the English which a lot more Americans understand than Croatian, saving a bunch in transmission costs. But no, it`s all-or-nothing, following the model of too many other defunct SW broadcasters. Aoki would have us believe that at 0300 there are three x 100 kW transmitters running, at 240, 255 and 325 degrees, but HFCC shows only two, at 255 and 315 degrees. And since HRT moved from Wertachtal in A-12 to Nauen in B-12, it seems reception has generally degraded; both with 100 kW, but being further south and west, Wertachtal has a propagational advantage to N America, and probably better antennas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 11750, Dec 29 at 0052, RHC music is here // 11760 like in the mornings, the only time 11750 is supposed to be on air per own schedule, 13-16 UT: ``América Central 11750/9810 25/31 13-16/22-06 UTC`` Maybe here by mistake instead of 9810, which I did not think to check? I did check elsewhere on 25m at 0052; found RHC on 11680 but not 11840 to S America, so 11750 could just as well be a mistake for 11840. 9511-9512, Dec 29 at 1312, the distorted spurblob from RHC is peaking around here, out of the 9540 transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** IRAN [non]. 9990, Dec 29 at 1345, R. Farda ID in passing, poor signal. This is 250 kW, 315 degrees from Iranawila, SRI LANKA, at 1300-1430, assuming the curtain antenna wind damage two months ago has not changed that;
