At 1008 music briefly then canned promo. This is followed by music. At 1015, "..a hora en Panamericana, seis ..." by a male, then back to music. Signal is poor to fair. Typically, this freq is silent as far as Panamericana is concerned. Judging from the ease that today's logging can be heard, they must broadcast only periodically and other times are off the air. Just an asumption. (Chuck Bolland, November 21, 2007) Bolivia, 6134.83, Radio Santa Cruz, 1022-1030 At tune in, noted local music segment. At 1024, live TC by male, comments. Signal was good.

It was still on at 2236 UTC. Arabic music, chat, and programme jingles, but I didn't get an ID. No "event" at TOH at 2100, except for 2-3 tones mixed into the studio chat to mark the hour. SINPO 33322. Maybe an additional Voice of Africa broadcast? Any ideas? 73, Eike Eike Bierwirth 55128 Mainz, Germany Rx: JRC-NRD525, wire antenna (10m) -- Psssst!

To: <Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Greetings DXers, On November 21 at 0045 UTC I picked up a strong Spanish speaking station on 12000 KHZ. They apparently signed off at 0100 UTC, the last words I heard were distinctly "Aruba". I didn't understand a word of the Spanish. This was done by a male announcer but there was a female too about five minutes earlier. After the presumed sign off there was nothing but open air and I listened for about 15 minutes more. According to the EIBI schedule by time, the only station on that frequency in Spanish listed to sign off at 0100 was HCJB. Also according to EIBI, Radio Havana Cuba was running on that frequency but not scheduled to sign of for a few hours and I heard nothing from them or any other station that was listed to be operating on that frequency. Seems a little strange to me, could this actually been out of Aruba? Rich Brock Bridgewater/Beaver, Pa.

To: Richard Brock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Rich, No. I would not make such a guess based on one word in a not understood language. Surely if you listen again tonight to 12000 you will hear nothing but HCJB. They probably run automatic IDs on the hour and half hour, maybe quarter-hour (really :14, :29, :44, :59+) depending on when the program breaks fall. And on the top of the hour their characteristic timesignal, which usually is the last thing heard rather than a formal sign-off. 73, Glenn Hauser --- Richard Brock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Greetings DXers, > On November 21 at 0045 UTC I picked up a strong > Spanish speaking station on 12000 KHZ.
