Here's a follow-up to the Aihkiniemi DXpedition report published a
couple of days ago:
The second leg of our two-part DXpedition (first in Aihkiniemi, then in
Lemmenjoki) began in a very sad way; our landlady Kristiina Jomppanen
had passed away just two days earlier at the age of 90. Her sons
reassured us that we would nevertheless be most welcome, and that they
will be happy to host DXers also in the future. DXing didn't offer much
consolation. Solar weather was unfavorable, and conditions began to
improve only just before we had to leave. Still, quite a few nice new
stations caught - and plenty of time for photography!

** ALBANIA. 13640, Nov 13 at 1542 check of R. Tirana`s English to North America
signal registers S9+15 but very undermodulated and I can`t make out what Klara
is saying. Standard remark (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** AUSTRIA. 15440, fairly good signal Nov 13 at 1404 with South Asian vocal
music, seemingly secular, but 1405 talking about Bible, Jesus Christ, AWR, and
mailing address in Hyderabad, Pakistan, or u...@awr.org It`s 300 kW, 90 degrees
from Moosbrunn at 1400-1430 daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL [and non]. 11780, RNA is on at 0640 Nov 13, but once again, no sign
of it on 6185, non // Cuban music from XEPPM, QRM-free. May it ever be so
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Nov 13:
10500, good with SAH at 1336. Presumably that`s a sign of Sound of Hope
underneath it but could not make out any other modulation. Normally there is
not even a SAH. Not found on 8, 9, or 11 MHz frequencies at this time, but did
not do a full bandscan up to 18 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13780, ran across RHC with Arnie Coro at 1341-1346 Nov 13 talking
about propagation. This is not a regular program, but just a contribution to
the revistas, so may show up at various times. He says he recorded it at 1440
UT on Friday the 12th, when the Wolf sunspot number was 60. Solar activity has
been increasing for the past sesquidekaday (quince d?as), so bands above 15 MHz
are improving. Solar max is now expected in 2013, but peaking nowhere near as
high as the past four cycles. Sunspots yesterday reached 66.
15230, at 1350 Nov 13, CRI Chinese music break in China Drive had a few IADs
via Sackville, plus SAH de RHC and Spanish undercurrent now that Arnie has
decided to collide with a fellow commie broadcaster, with whom they even have a
relay deal.
11760 is best at 1540 when I am hearing music from Puerto Rico, as identified
by announcer Tony G?mez, and I do believe he mentioned Cancionero
Iberoamericano, i.e. the program which used to be on an hour earlier at 1430,
and not changing UT due to DST or not, but now it has. 1556 titulares.
1600 I expect to hear mistakes in the frequency announcement for the following
hour, and so I do: Tony says: ``15390, 11690, 11730, 11760, 12040, 6140`` in
typical Soviet-style disorder, despite 15230 having replaced the short-lived
15390 several days ago. More music after 1600. He also keeps claiming RHC can
be heard on ``audio real`` even tho it`s NOT the Real Audio format. Please
engage brain before reading script. Please turn on a radio sometime and monitor
your own station. Please establish rapid and accurate communications between
studio and transmitters as to schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA [and non]. 9526-, VOI absent Saturday Nov 13 at 1336, no signal,
but overload from WHRI 9540, which I believe is on the air only on Saturdays
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 13790 // 13800 in Arabic music and talk, Nov 13 at 1346, both poor but
13790 slightly stronger, but too close for comfort to RHC 13780. Per HFCC we
have VIRI scheduled on both at 0530-1430, 13790 being 178 degrees from
Kamalabad, while 13800 is 289 degrees from Zahedan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 13810, as I tune across Nov 13 at 1408, Brother Scare
is in a lather, full of pride about all the frequencies he thinx he`s on at the
moment, this plus 9460, 9385, 9265, 9980. But 9265 WINB has someone else, a YL
preacher.
And 9460? TOM is supposed to have started Nov 12 at 1400-1600 daily, 100 kW,
300 degrees from Wertachtal, but despite being aimed USward, really for Europe,
inaudible here, and paranoid Pastor Pete Peters is no help blasting away from
WTWW 9479.
13810 is also via MBR, but Nauen, 100 kW, 129 degrees at 1400-1600 daily,
renewed as of 12 November (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [and non]. 5965 via CR, trying to nail down when Amigos de la Onda
Corta is now *really* on the air.
This version on REE`s own website
http://www.rtve.es/radio/radio-exterior/programacion/
is undated but ``mensual`` implying it is updated every month. (Link to it from
programasdx calls it ``semanal``, weekly). It does show current time difference
of one hour between HOE and UT, instead of two in the summer, but it has
obvious incorrect info, like no Basque at 1330 UT, no co-official languages at
2345-2355, both M-F.
It claims that Amigos de la OC is Saturdays at 0700 UT, Con Respuesta at 0730
UT. Yet the link to the Amigos page
http://www.rtve.es/radio/20100120/amigos-onda-corta/313335.shtml
shows it as Sat 0605, Sun 1330 as of 20 January 2010, so that was last winter`s
schedule. We`ve already confirmed the Sunday 1330 time as correct for B-10.
Unfortunately I tune in too late Saturday Nov 13 at 0647 to 5965 via CR, when
the program is called ``Edici?n Exclusiva`` interview about some Venezuelan
prize. One would expect the DX and mailbag program Con Respuesta to remain a
pair, one after the other. But there is no program named Edici?n Exclusiva on
the schedules. At 0710, I find 5965 playing classical music instead of Amigos
de la OC, so maybe that show really was on an hour earlier, when it could reach
a slightly larger awake audience in the Americas, slightly smaller in Europe
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. TRT on 15480 // 15350 about equal level, Nov 13 at 1358 with Turkish
commercials after music. Usually 15350 is much stronger, and these are supposed
to go off around 1355. I keep listening to 15480, then hear motorace SFX,
finally pulling the plug abruptly at 1401:50, by when 15350 is also off.
I was previously speculating that something weak on 15480 at 1412 Nov 12 could
be DVB on early, but now it seems more likely Turkey on late, as we often find
their slopperation runs overtime, sometimes to the detriment of the following
language service on another frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15590, 13715 and 9885 VOA Spanish plays a lot of music fill rather
than real produxions speaking Spanish. Saturday Nov 13 at 1352 ``Yellow Bird``
on vibes; before and after that, more pleasant tunes in similar vein rather
than usual hard rock in English, what a waste (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST) ###
