Message-ID: <4a11871e.11843.239...@greekdx.otenet.gr> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hello Last week I fond this news but today could forward to you. could this mean that American radio goe to the demise? RIAA vs. Public Radio - Performance Rights Act Moves Ahead http://www.zeropaid.com/news/86235/riaa-vs-public-radio-performance-rights-act- moves-ahead/ If one were to frame this as a case of biting the hand that feeds it, there would be plenty of people who wouldn?t be surprised at the comparison. A bill in the US is moving ahead that would tack on a brand new tax onto public radio broadcasters where if radio plays music, they have even more royalty fees they have to pay. It?s not hard to see why the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) wants this bill passed. Just read this part of a PC Mag article: Stations with annual revenues of less than $100,000 would pay a flat fee of $500 each year. Stations with revenues between $100,000 and $500,000 would pay $2,500, and those earning between $500,000 and $1.25 million would pay $5,000 annually. Stations making any more than that each year would have to negotiate royalty payments with the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB), a government body that sets royalty rates. Stations that gross less than $5 million per year would not be subject to these fees for three years, and stations making more than $5 million would not have to pay for one year. Essentially, it would mean a brand new stream of revenue. The bill cleared committee with a 21 to 9 vote and is now moving to the House for a full vote. Of course, the National Association of Broadcasters isn?t amused. There?s some history between radio broadcasters and the record industry. In a previous incident where the record industry demanded additional royalty payments from radio broadcasters, the provision was that every time radios played their music, the radio stations would have to pay royalties to the labels. Once that became the case, then the radio broadcasters boycotted the major record labels and played independent music. Once the major record labels saw their music sales tank, they had to renegotiate with the broadcasters again and were forced to back down on the royalty demands. So what?s the difference between then and now? According to a summary from Open Congress, the Performance Rights Act, or H.R. 4789, the bill would "establish a flat annual fee in lieu of payment of royalties for individual terrestrial broadcast stations with gross revenues of less than $1.25 million and for non-commercial, public broadcast stations". Clearly, the record labels have learned from history and the broadcasters are not amused. Judging by the summary, you could play nothing but public domain Beethoven music all day long and still have to pay royalties to the record labels. Not hard to see why the National Association of Broadcasters are furious over this - it almost appears to be an existence tax. As Techdirt notes, the history goes beyond just a royalty dispute. Techdirt?s article says, "of course, the most damning argument against the recording industry?s demand for money here is the fact that, for decades, the industry has (illegally) had the money go in the other direction. The system of payola has shown, quite clearly, how much the recording industry values airtime, in that it?s willing to pay radio stations to play its music. So, can anyone explain why it?s illegal for record labels to pay radio stations to play music, but it?s okay for Congress to force radio stations to pay the record labels for playing their music? It defies common sense." Techdirt goes as far as calling this an RIAA bailout, but other bloggers go so far as to calling this a Britney bailout. As we?ve alluded to throughout the article, the National Association of Broadcasters aren?t entirely amused by the whole idea. They even started a website at noperformancetax.org which has this to say: In recent years, the record labels have seen sales of albums decline as more listeners opt for digital downloads. However, radio remains the number one promotional vehicle for music - it?s not responsible for the label?s resistance to the digital age, and it shouldn?t be on the hook to fix it. Radio already provides between $1.5 to $2.4 billion dollars annually in music sales for artists and record labels. By pushing a tax on local radio, record labels are biting the hand that feeds them. Where does the money go? In short, the money would flow out of your community and into the pockets of the record labels - the great majority of which are foreign-owned. The record labels would like for you to think this is all about compensating the artists, but in truth the record labels would get at least 50% of the proceeds from a tax on local radio. How does this affect me? If you?re one of the 235 million people who listen to radio each week, a tax could reduce the variety of music radio stations play, and all but eliminate the possibility of new artists breaking onto the scene. The tax could particularly affect smaller, minority-owned stations, some of which may have to switch to a talk-only format or shut down entirely. It also affects your community. Radio stations are major contributors to public service - generating $6 billion in public service annually and providing vital news and community information and free airtime to help local charities. If a tax were imposed, stations? critical public and community service efforts could be reduced. And worst of all, if you?re one of the 106,000 Americans employed by local radio your job could be in jeopardy. In these troubling economic times, the last thing local radio needs is to be hit with a tax that some analysts estimate could be $2-7 billion annually. It?s hard to say where this is going to go, but one thing is for sure, any movement on this legislation is bound to create some fireworks given that there are two huge US associations butting heads over this.

Message-ID: <4a11871d.24264.239...@greekdx.otenet.gr> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 This is Radio Taliban... http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=2009\05\18\story_18-5- 2009_pg12_7 By Fawad Ali Shah KARACHI: "Da paka army na ganda army da, da kafiran di dwee na sirf sar na di prekawol pakar balkai da dwee tukri tukri kol pakar di," (They are not the Pak army, they are infidels, not only behead them but also chop their bodies up into little pieces), this is what Zuleikha, 52, heard on Fazlullah FM, after the military operation was launched in Swat; it was Maulana Shah Duran, a close-aide of Maulana Fazlullah, who delivered the speech. "They call the police and army infidels and have given permission to everyone to kill them," says Zuleikha, who hails from the Khwazakhela Town of the Swat Valley. She migrated to Karachi a few days ago, as the law and order situation in the valley deteriorates. She is currently living with her daughter, who has been living in Qasbah Colony, Karachi for the last ten years. Zuleikha reveals that Maulana Shah Duran, who was one of the three speakers on Fazlullah FM, would use abusive language when talking about government officials. The FM radio would broadcast programmes from 8:00 to 10:00 pm and rebroadcast them from seven to nine in the morning. The programme schedule was divided into three segments; the recitation of Holy Quran verses and their inferences, threats to opponents and a programme titled `Good News?. Many violent incidents started after Maulana Fazlullah established a FM radio station in Swat; he first used the station for the purpose of reciting and preaching Quranic verses, but later on, he and his accomplices used it to spread propaganda. This radio station was very popular among women, who traditionally stay at home in the Malakand division. On it, they could learn the Quran and the principles of Islam. "When I heard it for the first time, I found it very informative," the elderly woman, playing with her granddaughter?s locks said. The station would teach us Islamic rituals and other things, she added, however, she laments that later on, Maluana Fazlullah and Shah Durran started using abusive languages on the station. "Women would follow all the instructions he gave in the beginning and listened very carefully to the radio, however, it lost it?s attraction for them as soon as Durran started dictating what to do and what not to do," Zuleikha went on to say. "Even after the peace agreement was signed they continued dictating people." Though the women lost interest in the Fazlullah FM and would only listen to the recitation and explanation of versus of the Holy Quran, the children had their own reasons to listen to the station. "I loved the way he used to talk about the policemen," said Alamzaib, 9, who is presently living in Banaras at his uncle?s home. "Maulana Shah Alam would call them chickens," he narrates the story with fun. "I would listen to the second part of their programme, which was usually hosted by one of the accomplices of Maulana Fazlullah." With a smile on his face, the child revealed that Taliban would issue instructions and would name the policemen who would be killed the next day. However, he adds that he abhors the Taliban, as one of their accomplices had slapped him while he was playing `gulli danda? with his friend. "Learn how to play with guns," the Taliban man advised him. He maintained that Shah Duran also did not like games and called them, `a waste of time?. Zainab, 24, has her own story of the Taliban and their radio to tell. "I listened to it because it was so funny; Shah Duran who has been the leading presenter on FM, in the recent days, would use abusive funny language." However, Zainab says Maulana Fazlullah does not appear on the radio anymore. The men of Swat were not interested in the religious sermons and would listen to the radio in the days of war to learn the new directives of Taliban, as going against them would cost them their lives. "They would abuse clean-shaven people in public and called them transgenders," said Jamal Khan, who hails from Kabal Town and has migrated to Karachi in the wake of the ongoing military operation.

Victim is R Free Asia, Tibetan, 75 degrees via UAE at 11-14, inaudible. The buzz seems to be a defect in the ChiCom transmission, but since it`s a jammer, that only helps.

FD here resumed at 1404:40, and caused adjacent QRM to V of Russia in English on 15605 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. RHC missing from 12000 the last few mornings, including May 18 at 1330, when occupied by RUSSIA, q.v.,; and at 1419 when the not distorted but a bit hummy Chinese on 12000 is instead CVC Darwin, then gospel rock at 1421. Cuba was certainly propagable, as 11760 was in well as usual during hoary Voces de la Revoluci?n speech. Unless the RHC 12000 transmitter is simply down, it could be on the way to a new frequency, as RHC keeps up with reports from its volunteer monitor in Oclajoma.

Not only is WYFR 15600 blasted by WEWN`s 10-kHz-away spurs from 15610 between 19 and 23 UT, but another case of too-close-for-comfort exists for WYFR on 11530 at 0400-0900 since WEWN is using 11520 during those hours, and beyond. May 17 at 0605, the WEWN squealing spur was badly disrupting much weaker WYFR 11530. Could also hear it on 11510 with BFO on. Catholix vs Protestants!

As I tuned by sometime during the previous hour, heard a PSA about child sexual abuse. Without CVC, how are the Brazilians going to know about that? C?lio Romais reports this service is closing down completely at Junend, and announcements to that effect are being broadcast starting today; but I didn`t listen long enough to confirm one. Anyhow, the Brazilian radio bands, including domestic SW, are full of gospel huxters, so they hardly need any more in Miami trying to reach them via Chile (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** VENEZUELA [non].

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 L?cio 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. R?dio Difusora de C?ceres est? ativa em 5050 kHz. O Dexista Itamar Nunes de Cuiab?, Mato Grosso, captou a emissora no dia 23 de mar?o passado, pouco antes das 1400 UT.

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 Paran?, 1010 kHz of Juiz de Fora have the nomination as "R.

L?cio, Veja o link da Radio Solar AM/FM e na programa??o da AM - Radio Solar 1010 kHz existe o programa Manh? Legal com o comunicador Luiz Correa : http://www.radiosolar.com.br/amprogramacao.php N?o satisfeito telefonei para a emissora (32-3215-1620) e falei com a recep??o que me informou categoricamente que nos 1010 kHz ? a Radio Solar AM mas que a raz?o social da emissora ? R?dio Sociedade de Juiz de Fora que pode ser que o apresentador as vezes anuncie assim, teria que ouvir mais, mas pela sua codifica??o do SINPO o sinal estava um pouco d?bil, talvez interferindo no entendimento: Cidade/Sociedade. Quanto ? freq??ncia de 5050 kHz n?o seria um harm?nico? Espero que algum colega da regi?o que consiga ouvir possa nos tirar essa d?vida. 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 C?ceres (presumed), MT. May 05, Portuguese, 0938, music maybe religious, 0941-0949 religious talks by male "esp?rito santo". Very weak 14421 (L?cio Ot?vio 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 (L?cio Ot?vio 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?
