Rudolf: Information is good! See below:
Regarding the Brazilian mystery on 5050, I have just noticed that the nominal 5055 station was recently reported to be active on 5050, altho Lúcio has also reported it (presumed) more recently on 5055. So could that have been the one on 5050, rather than a somewhat unlikely fifth harmonic of anything on 1010? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Viz.: ** BRAZIL. Rádio Difusora de Cáceres está ativa em 5050 kHz. O Dexista Itamar Nunes de Cuiabá, Mato Grosso, captou a emissora no dia 23 de março passado, pouco antes das 1400 UT. Também o George Henrique de Moura Cunha, telefonou para a emissora, onde o funcionário Francisco lhe informou que ela está ativa, e emitindo diariamente de 0900 às 1400 UT (Via lista Radio escutas via Célio Romais, Panorama, @tividade DX April 19 via DXLD 9-035) Here are the previous pertinent items: ** BRAZIL. 5050, R. Cidade (tentative), Juiz de Fora [Minas Gerais]. May 05, Portuguese, 1001, OM talks, news program about list of countries with people infected by vírus, Europe coming to a social crisis, OM "Manhã Legal" program announcements, ID "R. Cidade 1010 KHz", "Manhã Legal com Luiz Correa, um oferecimento CEMIG, a melhor energia", 1010 "bom dia Juiz de Fora!", 1011 sertanejo music. Many other mentions about "R. Cidade 1010 KHz", "Juiz de Fora". On May 02 I heard the same announcements on 5050. According Lista de Emissoras OM/OT/OC - Brasil of DX Clube do Paraná, 1010 kHz of Juiz de Fora have the nomination as "R. Solar AM". 24432 (Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, Embu SP Brasil - Sony ICF SW40 - dipole 18m, 32m, WORLD OF RADIO 1459, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Olá Lúcio, Veja o link da Radio Solar AM/FM e na programação da AM - Radio Solar 1010 kHz existe o programa Manhã Legal com o comunicador Luiz Correa : http://www.radiosolar.com.br/amprogramacao.php Não satisfeito telefonei para a emissora (32-3215-1620) e falei com a recepção que me informou categoricamente que nos 1010 kHz é a Radio Solar AM mas que a razão social da emissora é Rádio Sociedade de Juiz de Fora que pode ser que o apresentador as vezes anuncie assim, teria que ouvir mais, mas pela sua codificação do SINPO o sinal estava um pouco débil, talvez interferindo no entendimento: Cidade/Sociedade. Quanto à freqüência de 5050 kHz não seria um harmônico? Espero que algum colega da região que consiga ouvir possa nos tirar essa dúvida. 73 (Marcelo Bedene, Curitiba - PR, May 5, dxclubepr yg via WORLD OF RADIO 1459, DXLD) So apparently we are dealing with a fifth harmonic; also check 2020, 3030, 4040. In case you haven`t noticed, nominal frequencies of all intentional Brazilian 60m stations end in -5, a remnant of some kind of SAm band plan to leave the `even` frequencies for other countries, e.g. Venezuela (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1459, DX LISTENING DIGEST) e.g.: 5055, Brazil, R. Difusora de Cáceres (presumed), MT. May 05, Portuguese, 0938, music maybe religious, 0941-0949 religious talks by male "espírito santo". Very weak 14421 (Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, Embu SP Brasil - Sony ICF SW40 - dipole 18m, 32m, DX LISTENING DIGEST) re 9-039: ** BRAZIL. Re 9-038, 5050: Hello Glenn, About 5050, something interesting is happening; I heard on May 7, 8, 9 a very defined sign on around, all days, 0946. If it's the fifth harmonic, originated of 1010 kHz, this frequency (1010) is signing on in the same time, of course. But that's very strange because this station certainly runs 24 hours a day (I don't checked it but if it's not this time, 0947 is not usual to a station sign on in Brazil). Checked the potential fourth harmonic 4040 and was nothing there around 0946. I made a mistake in my log about 5050, that's not R. Cidade but R. Solar. What do you think? 73 (Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, SP, May 9, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Harmonix tend to be either odd or even, so you might not hear 4040, but 3030, if propagation were working on the lower frequency too. Maybe it really signs on at that odd time for some reason, or maybe you have some other station entirely; are you sure of the Radio Solar ID now on 5050?
