[HCDX] ClewistonUSA DX TUE
Russia, 5920, Radio Rossii, 0901-0920, At tune in, noted a male in Russian language news. At 0907 a female begins talking. This freq is parallel with 5940 (poor) and 7320 (fair). Although WBOH is mixing here with Rossii, WBOH is barely audible while Rossii is at a fair level. Rossii improves to a good by 1000 UTC. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Bolivia, 6134.74, Radio Santa Cruz, 0916-0930, Haven't heard this well enough to report in recent days, but with music and Spanish comments, noted a fair signal here today from Radio Santa Cruz. Had to notch out the Brazilian located on 6135 KHz however. At 0920 after some music, a male comments mentioning Santa Cruz often. A recheck at 1017 produced a good signal. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Bolivia, 3309.92, Radio Mosoj Chaski, 0932-0945, Noted a male in Spanish comments at tune in. The signal was between threshold and nil during this period. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Brazil, 3375.12, Radio Educadora, (pres) 0940-0950, Noted music here as the signal would fade in for a couple of seconds, then drop away again. After the music a male in steady portuguese comments. Signal was threshold to poor. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Brazil, 4805.00, Radio Difusora Do Amazona, (pres), 0950-1000, Noticed a male in Portuguese comments conversing with a second male on the telephone. Heard the phrase, Radio Nacional mentioned by the man using the telephone. Signal was threshold. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Russia, 7300, Voice of Russia, Khabarovsk, 1003-1015, Noted a male in steady Chinese language comments until 1007 when Russian music presented (male singing in Russian). Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, May 12, 2009) Bolivia, 6155.25, Radio Fides, 1018-1030, Noted a weak signal here with a male in Spanish language comments. The station on 6155 KHz in Chinese is covering Fides somewhat. Fides is poor.

[HCDX] Correction
Correct my below Brazil logging to read: Brasil Radio Municipal São Gabriel da Cachoeira instead of Educadora. Brazil, 3375.12, Radio Educadora, (pres) 0940-0950, Noted music here as the signal would fade in for a couple of seconds, then drop away again. After the music a male in steady portuguese comments. Signal was threshold to poor.

[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs May 10-12, 2009
** ANGUILLA [and non]. 11775 missing at 1346 check May 11, and also at 1331 check May 12, tho some DentroCuban jamming pulses were audible against nothing since R. Martí uses 11775 only at -0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL. Radio Brasil Central, 11815 fair with deep fades, ``Acontece na Madrugada`` mentioned as soon as I tuned in, May 12 at 0535, apparently program title, ``It Happens in the Wee Hours``, phone number in Goiânia, 0538 timecheck for ``duas horas, 37 minutos `` --- so nice to hear some genuine live local programming from Brasil in the nightmiddle instead of gospel huxters. I was about to label this ``OBOB`` --- only Brazilian on band in my log shorthand, as Bandeirantes missing from 11925, but then at 0539 I found 11765 also in with the IPDA wacko, strangely interrupted for ``2:40`` timecheck from studio announcer, het from 11760 NHK if not RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. 13970 fair Firedrake lento passage at 1335 May 12 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGESET) See also UK [non] ** CUBA. RHC missing from 13780, May 12 at 1334, so I kept tuning and found that the frequency it replaced on April 13, 15370, was back on! But it cut off at 1356* so had the engineers realized their mistake? Then tuned to 11760 to catch the frequency announcement around hourtop by Antonio `Stacatto` Gómez --- at 1401 he still listed 13780 and not 15370 (and he also always mentions 6000 altho that is really closing down at 1400). Anyhow, that takes care of the mixing products with 13680, landing on 13880 and 13580, the lower one QRMing Prague. Oops, at 1404 check found 15370 back on, so it was just a normal transmitter breakdown a few minutes earlier. Weaker 15360 was still audible but not usual // 15120, tho a weak carrier from something was detectable there. So the question remains whether RHC has deliberately resumed 15370 instead of 13780 at 1300-1500? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ETHIOPIA [non]. In a bandscan Monday May 11 at 1958 I came upon Amharic on 15665, HOA music, the final word ``amen`` before WHRI ID in English and cut off before any frequency could be mentioned. WRTH A-09 update reminds us this is: Dimtse Tewahedo, Mondays only at 1900-2000; see http://tewahedomedia.org (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA [and non]. VOI remains on 11785 before and after 1400 facing heavy interference from the China/US radio war during VOI`s English hour at 13-14, not to mention WHRI/Hmong on weekends. Monday May 11 at 1359 heard a clip of former acting president George W. Bush, something about home ownership, as nonsensical as that may be, presumably from VOA Chinese --- don`t they have enough clips of current legitimately elected president Barack H. Obama to use? Anyhow, that went off quickly, uncovering at 1401 VOI IS and ID, still lite CCI from BBC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA NORTH. 11710, VOK in English, May 11 at 1350 talking about their imaginary satellite and all the neat data they are getting from it! 1351 about a dance, ``The Cowboy and the Girl``, which I thought was just introducing some music, but the talk went on and on, and there were only a few sex of music at 1354 before transmitter cut off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9385, WWRB, May 11 at 2011 found open carrier, a blessed relief from the usual B.S. ranting; only slight hum and crackle to remind us a real transmitter was there burning up 100 kW for nothing. I took the opportunity to enjoy the almost-silence and listened to it for five minutes as modulation maintained its mumness still. So does The Overcomer Ministry get a pro-rated refund? Or was it their own feeding failure (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U K [non]. 15285, May 12 at 1405, good signal in Chinese operatic music, then MW talk, SAH over a weak signal. BBC Mandarin operates from Singapore at 1300-1530, 100 kW at 13 degrees, so also favorable for us, but I fear this may have been CNR1, as Aoki assures us this, like all BBC Chinese frequencies, is jammed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. WEWN, 11550 with het, no doubt the perpetually off-frequency TAIWAN, May 12 at 1413 in Spanish, voice-over translation of Arabic singing --- odd to hear the Arabic with Latinate Catholic rather than Qur`anic intonations! Same thing // on 11530 English frequency but without the Spanish, live event from Israel, 1417 alleluiahs. Then speech in English by the RCC CEO. I onturned EWTN TV and found same running about one second ahead of SW, plus video. This was variously labeled as homily, eucharist from the Valley of Josephat [sic], an outdoor mass before a crowd in casual dress. Now I could see that the pope was seated on an ornate golden throne, wearing a golden mitre and golden robes in full regalia --- wow, this must be a rich church --- or is it fool`s gold? Another

[HCDX] MW with Mexico
Few tips made on MW from Bocca di Magra (La Spezia) I had 20 burning minutes with a great opening 0405-0425, with many signals but only few ids. On 1370 I found 5 stations together with similar signal but all on a frequency a little different, the spectrum looked like a small DRM curve...
