Please correct my Radio Japan entry to read
"Japan" instead of "Singapore"
for the country of origin. I seemed to have been
still snoozing when I read the
reference. Sorry

Singapore (pres), 6140, Radio Japan,(pres),
1015-1030, Noted a male in
comments
(Indonesian is listed for this freq and time),
with music interspersed
during the period.
ID is based on schedule and frequency. The
signal is poor and the audio is
even poorer. At 1030, the station went off
without any fanfare. So there
was no need to flip a coin.
I was fairly confident that this was Radio
Japan, but not sure if it is/was
via Singapore?
(Chuck Bolland, April 30, 2009)
Bolivia, 6155.23, Radio Fides, 1037-1045, Noted
a couple of signals
mixing in on this frequency, but Radio Fides was
prominent with a female
in Spanish comments. Still the evident fade is
commencing as the splatter
begins to cover the signal from Fides. By 1045,
audio has disappeared into
the noise. (Chuck Bolland, April 30, 2009)
Peru, 6195.74, Radio Cusco, 1045-1050, Just
barely audiable, noted a male
and female in Spanish Language comments. The
signal at this time is
threshold,
and it is being hindered by the BBC's broadcast
on 6195 via Singapore.

** CHILE. Despite reports in April that the Brazilian service of CVC, A Sua
Voz, would cease SW at the end of the month, it was still there on 15410 May 1,
at 1336 check, Portuguese mixing with Hausa from DW via Rwanda, 5 Hz away.
Other collisions are 15-17 Radio Farda via Lampertheim, 1730-1900 VOA English
via Greenville, but after that should be in the clear until closing at 0100, or
is it 0200? So did the service get a reprieve because of Brazilian SW
listeners` objexions, or what? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. It`s a big day in Cuba, not only MayDay, but the official 48th
anniversary of RHC (which started earlier in 1961 as Onda Corta Experimental
Cubana; I remember hearing that from the outset.) At 1326 on 13780 I found a
phone interview in Spanish with Arnie Coro in progress, as he was recounting
the foundation of RHC in which he was heavily involved, how they started out
without any studios but were provided space on the fifth and sixth floors of
Radio Progreso (where they still are??). Didn`t yet have steel towers in place
for antennas at Bauta. The first frequency was 11760, still beloved and still
in use.
Arnie asserted that he had already received congratulatory messages from
English speaking listeners in the USA, where tnx to the journalistic quality of
RHC, people are better informed! He is missing the celebrations in the Plaza de
la Revoluci?n as he is staying home to monitor to be sure everything is going
well, and says all transmitters are well-modulated (if so, that would be a
first!). Ended at 1333 and more lo-fi phone reports from correspondents around
the country about local celebrations.
The interview with Arnie would normally repeat in the 17 UT hour on the
webcast-only playback of Despertar con Cuba, but might be pre-empted today for
live coverage of the festivities. Still one might tune in earlier than 1726 to
try to hear the rest of it. I also would not be surprised if there are
additional SW broadcasts today when RHC normally takes a siesta between 15 and
20 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. VOA News, 9760 via Philippines, VG May 1 at 1305 with in-depth report
by Dan Robinson, about Somali piracy, many clips of comments from Capitol Hill.
One of the many `improvements` in VOA`s website redesign is that a gallery of
its English-language broadcasters is no longer to be found. Just these 12
mostly non-English despite the word in the URL:
http://www.voanews.com/english/About/talent-gallery.cfm
This news hour is presented by one Philip Alexia (spelling?). But that name,
nor any other likely spelling, is not even on the long drop-down list of
correspondent names where one can search out text reports via
http://www.voanews.com/english/search.cfm
But then, he`s an anchor, not a correspondent. He puts a lot of expression into
his announcing, so much that it may be a turnoff to some listeners; I wonder if
he`s a refugee from commercial radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

You might think the 1700 experiment is to avoid Morocco collision on 15345
during the original German broadcast at 2100; but Morocco is also on 15345 at
the earlier hour. At least I think so, since Aoki still has B-08 info as
neither RTVM nor RAE participates in HFCC:
15345 RTV MAROCAINE 1500-2200 1234567 Arabic 250 110 Nador MRC 00255W3502N RTV
b08
What RAE really needs, duh, is a frequency change of even 5 kHz, inconceivable
to them. Also per Aoki it looks like 15340 is available 1700-2200! (Glenn
