[HCDX] Re Hardcore Vol 40. Issue 19
Hi Craig and all, following Craig's entry about ABC Far North on 11650 kHz I tried the frequency at 0635 UT today Wednesday April 19, without many expectations. But it was there on my AOR AR7030. I had to use very trick in the book to get it readable due to weak signal and severe QRM. WRTH-2006 says this is Shepparton, with 100 kW, so it's really not a new DX-station for me, but the studio and its messages surely are. At 0651 "Tropical Cyclon Advice 23", warning about high winds, floodings, etc. and advicing people to stay calm and remain in shelter. At 0700 "On... and ... this is ABC Far North". In a newscast that followed there was a phone report from Jakarta, and at 0712 another cyclon warning. Around 0720 the signal was completely lost here. Well, I trust you're all right Craig, you seem to be prepared. Thank you for the tip. 73 Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden AOR AR7030, longwire ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2006 is out.

[HCDX] 1314 kHz
Hi, the closure of NRK on 1314 has paved the way for Loisirs AM, Paris. Heard on Aug 14 and 15 after my local sunset around 19UT. Nonstop songs, ballads, rapping etc, in French or English. No commercials heard but rather frequent ids "Loisirs 13-14 A.M." or "Loisirs 13-14 ondes moyennes. Weak to fair. At first with Roumanian txs echoing, then a little bit later sometimes Spanish voices in the background, but Loisirs AM clearly dominant.

[HCDX] Re unid 6005
Hi Glenn and all, Re Glenn's unid on 6005, I don't understand why you didn't think about Deutschlandradio Kultur which is more or less a local here. I enjoy this station a lot. Its programming is really a mix of cultural features from any place worldwide, not neccesarily centered on Germany. Tx-site is listed as Berlin-Britz 100 kW, and I presume it's non-directional. Right now at 0906 UT, Oct 27 they are giving a the forecast of water levels and weather around the Baltic and northwest European coast. (Well, that doesn't matter so much for a "land-crab" like me, but we do have a storm with possible gale force winds right now in northweast Europe.) It's rather difficult for me to imagine how you hear 6005 in Enid, OK. Radio Habana Cuba must be very strong on 6000. Ciao / Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden.

[HCDX] 7120 kHz
Hi, Oct 31 1225-1255 7120 Wantok Radio Light with very good id at 1233. Weak to fair, but at times terrible splashes from adjacent qrgs. From 1255 carrier on 7120 and at 1300 station in Romanian (?). Also momentarily cw and U.K. hams in USB too. Those are not supposed to be in this range, I think. They might have been com radio stations, anyway very Scottish accent. Besides some talk in English, just a male voices, christian songs. I was too late to hear anything readable at 0800 on 1570 ,1640 and 1700 yoday.Signals were to weak and fading.to day.New try tomorrow morning. I is long overdue for me to invest in new up-to- date frequency lists and and I mus't forget to set the alarm clock. Despite reading a lot of dx news on the web and getting interesting loggings, the AOR AR70 has recently shown some malfuntionings. The clock wont't readjust, the sync-lock won't work as it should and the reason I think are cracks in some solering. Even if I could get help from the rx homesite, I would dare to try to repair it myself . Any seggustions ?. Over the years I have had little or no contact with the guy who sold it to me. His name is Stefan Wikander, but I have lost contact with him, even his mail address. Anyone knows that ? I would very much appareciate any help from anyone.

[HCDX] A few MV loggings
Hi, a few loggings this Monday morning Nov 28, 2005 1386 0805 UK : LPAM hospital radio station Carillon Radio just above noise level with 100 % ID. The S-meter wasn't reacting at all. Just 1 watt. 1404 0830 France : Two stations, France Info and Radio Blue equally good att the same time, so I couldn't tell what station was airing what. But one of them had news from Ajaccio, Corsica and "Radio Corsa Frequenza Mora" was mentioned - as the source, perhaps. Acccording to the European-African Medium Wave Guide, the Ajaccio station does not carry local programs at this hour. To add to the confusion I felt, two Romanian stations took over, and when I managed to phase them out I heard just France Info. 1413 0825 UK : BBC Radio Gloucestershire w/ very good signal and at least one more UK station in the background. >From 0845 I had to deal with incoming phone-calls and other matters and now >att 0925 I have tuned to : 1431 0925 UK : Classic Gold Breeze w/ oldies and weak signal. 1440 0937 Lux: DRM noise spilling up to 1449 1449 0945 UK : BBC Radio 4 // 198 with religious program 1458 0953 UK : BBC Radio Newcastle dominating, but BBC Radio Cumbria is here too. 1548 1000 UK : Magic AM, Sheffield is usually not the strongest UK station at my place, but it is definitely so right now. Wonderful signal. Awaiting a visitor any minute, I hurry to send this. Good DX to all.

[HCDX] 7120 Wantok Radio Light
Hi all, on 7120 I usually have Xinjiang with Kyrgyz until 1230 UT, but Wantok Radio Light has been well over the threshold many times lately, today Sat Jan 14, too. Christian songs, some of them with choires singing in a South Pacific style. From 1300 Radio Romania. Their carrier seems to begin warming up at different times, e.g. 1253, as today, sometimes as late as 1259. 7120 is at times full of ham operators, today with a funny-sounding whistle concert when one of them was, I think, trying to start up a repeater. So there is a "window" to hear Wantok Radio Light between 1230 and 1300. 73/Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden AOR AR7030 30 m LW ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2006 is out.

I listened to 17660.00 on Feb 2 from 1335 to 1429. UT. Nonstop highlife music.Very enjoyable and with SINPO 3-4 5 5 3 4 , getting better. At 1349 a very weak station under was heard with arabic music, but disappeared after a minute or two. No jammer was heard during the whole time of listening. The station with african music just kept on playing their highlife music. Nothing that even ressembles an id was heard. At 1408 a song which included the words "independence" and "Cameroun" , at 1410 a song probably titled "L'Afrique, c'est mon pais". At 1429 they went off the air, without any spoken words, leaving the frequency free from any other station, the qrg is dead, whatever antenna I use. BTW, as a very young DX-er I didn't fancy high- life music at all, even called it pejorative things like "Lumumba music". Time and life have taught me better.

[HCDX] 981 flop, Jan 15 2004
Re 981 on Jan 15. No not a single trace of a different tx than the usual ones could be heard here. This well advertised attempt was a total flop, here at a distance of about 50 miles from the tx. I live in the countryside outside Trollhättan, have a fairly good K9AY, and the day before Desi Radio ("...from the south of Southall , this is Desi Radio...") was coming in with S6 at 18 UTC on 1602. Desi Radio is listed with 70 watts. I allowed myself to joke about it in Swedish to a friend who tried 981 inside Trollhättan, and of course he had failed too. I wrote something like this : ---I can't but believe that the guy doesn't know anything about AM low power broadcasting. Probably the transmission took place from some underground bunker with the output antenna wire down the sewage pipe. Can't tell, perhaps the transmission was heard in some bunker next door... Now I read that it was a technical failure. Why no tests before the real attempt ?

Hi, many thanks to Anker P. who sent me a swift reply about 6340. I was just too lazy to stay on the frequency to hear the id. Today I did and heard "---dengi Kurstistana Iraka---". Re 4982U old friend Jouko in Turku (Åbo in Swedish) says he's heard something of the the same kind on 4855.1L. He also tells that 603 Mariehamn is background mx for him. Well really not here in Trollhättan, Sweden. Romania, France, the UK,s and some tx with nonstop pop mx, so far no id gotten by me. Re 5770 Myanmar they are there most afternoons until 1630 or so. With utility talk in Russian as a QRM from time to time, and also some audio which sounds like another bc station. 1620 Oct 7 0455 VI. WHDP, Fredrikstedt is an easy catch. I heard no id on the hour, but at 0510 there were three ads for organizations. What amazed me and amused me was the first one , ending with these words "Community - Service - Protection - Commitment -- The Virgin Ilands Police Department". I can't tell where the line between a PSA and an ad goes. Anyway, if the local police (here) had put an ad like this one on the air, people would've laughed their arse off. This was actually the first time that I heard something very local from the Virgin Islands, except the ids or course. With daylight around 0530 the station disappeared.

Re Radio Altura Radio Altura is on 5009.55 to be exact, and the program was "Boleros y baladas de oro". This station seems to be a hard qsl-er, am I right ? Btw is the address (Pasaje Tarma 127, Chaupimarca) in WRTH 2002 the correct one ? 73 Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden
[HCDX] Cannot believe it
Hi, Re 4820 Zacharias Liangas and comment by Jari Savolainen, it's rather clear that Zacharias got it wrong, or they were joking on 4820. But let's thank Zacharias a lot for so much of very good monitoring and reporting to the HCDX. Bophutswana was a so-called homeland in South Africa in the times of the late apartheid regimes, and of course it did not work. I am sure that that idea was buried pretty deep after democracy came to South Africa. It's the World Cup going on - and this is for real - and for me too. Sorry, football haters. But I got bored of Swedish commentators during the match between England and Sweden last Sunday and picked up 252 Longwave - TeamTalk, Ireland for the speakers. But something was odd about it. They didn't fit, the screen events and the commentator sound. I found out that the guy on 252 was viewing it with a delay. When Sweden goaled, he was WAY behind. Not just slow. As if directing a symphony orchestra after the final thundering bars. Funny experience. 73 JB Johan Berglund Trollhättan, Sweden

Hi, re #917 Björn Malm from Quito & other matters Wonderful reporting from you Björn, as always. Re R Cosmopolta, I have not said that my report was returned, simply that it hasn't been answered. I used the address you mentioned. And also the name you suggested. Well so a f/u is going from here any day. I see you are coming this way soon. Be sure to get a phone-call from me. Re the Radio Nord special nostalgia program over 9980 Lithuania June 30, it is was heard well here, but to miserably I believe to attract the average listener*. I missed 75 % of the show because I had simply forgot about the event, and tuned in at 2035 UT. (My only excuse is too much TV that evening here - for once.) Had to use USB mode to get the sharpness of the sound needed for fair readability. Very good programming, and a kick for those who were around at the time 40 years ago. To the producer(s), many thanks for this shortwave event, and tell our Lithuanian friends that the transmitter was a bit meak this time. I should really get into the SW bands sincerely again soon, my break is due to bad health, and a pause was needed. This afternoon at work at our small local airport a lot of time was spent with phone and telex conversation with a US air operator regarding a F900 arriving here tomorrow. Sorry, no more details, you cannot discuss customers. One can only be amazed how the world regards this "petite" airport. It's almost closed in July, and I had alert a helluva lot of people. We are surely not LAX or JFK... My God ! We - ESGT - Trollhattan-Vanersborg Airport , are on the air with our NDBs 24h. 325 and 399. In a WWII story about the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor I read that the USAAF (Army Air Force) used a commercial Honolulu station as a NDB. And that they actually asked the station not to close but to go on with their px at night and early mornings when a unit coming in from the continental US was due. So one of the airborn commanders of the attacking air fleet actually got a weather forcast for the target area on medium wave and ordered "head on". To good to be true. And the few radar blips actually seen and reported in Hawaii were attributed to these US positioning flights. 73 Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden with an AOR7030 and K9AY a bit down for the moment. attackers actually got a weather brief in the clear from *meaning those who - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 01, 2002 11:50 AM Subject: Hard-Core-DX digest, Vol 1 #917 - 4 msgs > Send Hard-Core-DX mailing list submissions to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://www2.hard-core-dx.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > You can reach the person managing the list at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of Hard-Core-DX digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > >1. =?iso-8859-1?Q?Bandscan_SW_51_from_Quito_by_Bj=F6rn_Malm?= (Thomas Nilsson) >2.

[HCDX] Saturday night fever on AM
Hi from Trollhättan, Sweden, where the rx was steamed up for the first time in months 1170 Sep 7 2035 Radio Minsk had a DX-px in German at this time, Sat night. Said they had a fine special QSL-card for this. (I thought I had gone more bananas than usual when I stumbled on this px, hearing old ids of Radio Schweden and Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk here plus one Colombian, Caracol I think.) But frankly speaking R Minsk itself seemed to be a bit of a DX station as it was only S7 on the K9AY direction east, so I really doubt they are using a megawatt tx. Other stations on the frequency were heard better, such as Radio Capodistria and a UK one, serving "..Staffordshire and Cheshire" so most probably Big AM, Stoke-on-Trent. The latter one has 200 watts. 1278 Sep 7 2005 "Vous écoutez France Blue Alsace" , easy listening with old goodies. So this one has escaped, with thanks, the changes on AM in France. 1314 Sep 7 1945 BBC WS with EE/Arabic px must be Al Dhubbaya, UAE. NRK off ?! 1593 Sep 7 1800 Radio Neumarkt, px in German from Targu Mures, Romania. A couple of very good ids, songs and features in German but heavy competition from R Romania Cultural and R Cluj, also on the qrg. 73 Johan Berglund, AOR AR7030, K9AY

[HCDX] Las Palmas
Hi, tho very inactive at the moment, I send out this feeler : Going to Gran Canary on Sat Nov 2, just for a week. Hotel and which playa only known upon arrival, but surely there'll be some time over for DX-contacts. Anybody who knows about local DX-ers or perhaps even clubs on this island ? I cannot promise anything, but I will try to investigate the whereabouts of the tx of 6715U. I have heard it too. The program source was revealed I see. Now I am scraping up the leads I have seen in HCDX and other sources. [Believe it or not, but I remember well a Korean connection of my own from that island. I was guiding a bussload of Swedish tourists up in the mountains in 1973, I think, among the passengers were half a dozen of really Nordic blond and tall girls. At a stop at one of the calderas we found another tourist bus parked there. It was stranded and the driver was sweating to do some repairs. His passengers were standing about, obviously already tired of the views and waiting to get on. They were all Korean sailors, and now they really got something interesting to look at. I asked Pusan ? and they all smiled and nodded. My group had their view of the volcano and we left, but first I had to throw out a couple of Korean guys who had follwed the girls onboard our bus. We waved them goodbye. That's the closest to ethnic cleansing I have come - and that cruel expression became known only many years later] 73 Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden.

[HCDX] 1584
1584 unid Arabic-speaking with modern popular Arabic music seems to be addressing itself to Iraq, as this word is in the "slogans" of the IDs, before name of the station, which sounds like Radio Tacheen, stress on the long e-sound. At 1911 Feb 5, double ID by both female and male announcer. Just slogans,ids and music here, no Radio Sawa-like news stories heard so far. But it is most likely a part of the US information & music offensive in the Gulf area. Any tx site will of course not be given away in the programs, perhaps some email address might pop up. Good for those who do understand Arabic, I am at loss here I am afraid. Candidate countries for origin of signal ?

[HCDX] Saddam's home town on 1584 AM ...
Hi, thanks a lot Björn Fransson and Mauno Ritola for the work done on pinning down the name of the station. Tikrit surely fits my recording from Feb 5, at 1911. The name of the town struck me as very familiar, and of course, it's Saddam Hussein's birthplace. And it has been in the news as a storage area for weapons of mass-destruction. Historically wellknown in many fields. I can only speculate about the real motives for the choice of name for this station. Another psychological tidbit in the war for minds ? Now we can probably only wait for what the BBCMS and other broadcast intelligence sources have to say about it. CRW ? A Google search for Tikrit made me end up reading the Israeli weekly web-mag Debka. Quite a lot to consume. No wonder I get some huge phone bills from time to time. 73 Johan Berglund Trollhättan, Sweden AOR AR7030, K9AY ---[Start Commercial]- World Radio TV Handbook 2003 is out!

When radio came around in the twenties Europe was - and is still despite the efforts for a European Union - a continent which is split into some fourty countries. Countries, not radio stations overseen by e.g. the FCC, divided up the MW band in the twenties, and as you know WWII, suceeded by the the Cold War made it impossible to change anything. European countries have more or less kept all old frequncies and their right to broadcast with so and so much ERP. Some use their rights, some don't. Sweden has left MW all together, except for 1187 which is used for Radio Sweden. Another point is that most European governments very selflishly monopolized broadcasting and only allowed state-run broadcasting. So in a few words : The reasons, for this being as it is, are historical. 73 Johan Berglund, Trollhättan, Sweden PS. Bogdan, forget about concrete buildnings.
