At 0638, 6180 bore a mixture of Spanish and English, leapfrog of 6120 Spanish over 6150 English, and/or 6060 over 6120, both in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT. 6270, at 2159 Jan 28, R. Cairo English service is still missing. 9305, Arabic homeservice relay is on, with Arabic music; 2208 every minute or two interrupted for announcement about Mubarak, presumably that he is about to speak. 2214 Arabic ID, mentions Mubarak; 2217, Mubarak is speaking. Meanwhile I was also watching CNN and MSNBC. CNN joined Mubarak speech immediately with translation by woman. MSNBC showed him, but did not have any English translation available for a few minutes, finally has a man translating. He concluded at 2228. Said something about forming a new government, but himself not resigning. 11590, the scheduled English from R. Cairo to WNAm, Jan 28 at 2326, poor signal and very undermodulated, could not be sure it`s in English. Official versions of schedule keep showing this sesquihour as Arabic. Wolfgang B?schel suggests transmissions from the site near Cairo, Abu Zabaal have been off the air, while the other site, Abis, much further away near Alexandria, continues in operation. Would they be flexible enough to transfer some of the frequencies from one to the other? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDIA. 6280, Jan 28 at 2206, weak signal in talk, presumably the only broadcaster scheduled on this marine band channel, AIR GOS, 500 kW, 320 degrees from Bengaluru (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** LIBYA. 17725, V. of Africa, better than usual, Jan 29 at 1409, reggae song in English, ``Is it true, is it a dream, Qaddaffy . . . no racist regime``, lyrix repeated over and over but could never copy every word. 1414 on to ``special program`` about peace & stability, mentioning ``Al-Fatah revolution``. // 21695 not propagating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 6185, XEPPM, Jan 29 0630+ with Willie Nelson album cuts, later Oak Ridge Boys, all in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 24, KOKH, OKC on 25.2 subchannel Saturday Jan 29 at 1556 UT with e/i kidvid combining animation and live axion, instead of Country Music Network, tho PSIP ID still claims it`s CMN. Titan TV schedule shows nothing but ``TCN`` music videos 24/7 for this. 1559 outro logo for the kidvid shows The Country Network; 1600 local ID combining KOKH, 25.2, The Country Network, and back to videos with guitar bug lower-right. So is TCN = CMN? Why both? Seems even obscure nets like this have to pay their e/i dues, even if it mean breaking format, and they all cynically do it on Saturday morning ghetto, leaving the poor kids nothing wholesome(?) to watch the rest of the time (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PHILIPPINES. 12055, Jan 29 at 0014, ``Jesus Saves`` IS, so it`s FEBC. 0015 birds chirping and other dawn-chorus sounds. ID? and song in unID language, fair and fading. HFCC shows multilingual service 100 kW, 305 degrees from Bocaue site at 2330-0115. Aoki refines this to 0015 transition from Tai-Lu language to Lahu. Of course! Eibi shows: Tai-Lu is spoken by the Lu in S China, 0.25 Megapersons, and in Burma by 0.2 Mp; Lahu is spoken in China by 0.4 Mp, and in Myanmar by 0.15 Mp --- minority cultures at risk to the Christian conversionists (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PRIDNESTROVYE. 6240, Radio PMR, Friday Jan 28 at 2159 playing national anthem, 2200 OC briefly and off. This ``M-F`` service signs off at local midnight Friday into Saturday, while on Sun-Thu it runs until 2400; UT Sunday resuming at 2200, which is the beginning of Monday there. No longer relaying Voice of Russia daily after 0000, apparently moved to 7290, where signal is much worse here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ROMANIA. 15170, Jan 29 at 1423, RRI ID in Romanian service, yodeling morphing into ``O Sole Mio``, nice folk music concert until rude, abrupt cutoff the air at 1456* without so much as a ``la revedere``. This is in the clear only on Saturdays when REE/Costa Rica takes a break (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENINBG DIGEST) ** UGANDA [non]. 17725, Saturday Jan 29 at 1708, urgent talk in Swahili or something, presumed Radio Y`abaganda, clandestine via FRANCE, still active during this one quarter-hour per week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1549 monitoring. Confirmed Friday Jan 28 at 2130 on WWCR 7465. And Saturday Jan 29 after 1500 on WRMI 9955 --- no jamming, but SAH from co-channel YFR via Taiwan, and overload from WWCR 9980. Also reconfirmed on WWCR 12160 after 1700 Saturday. Next chances are: Sat 1830 on WRMI 9955; Sat 1900 on IPAR 6090; Sun 0730 on WWCR 3215; Sun 0900, 1630, 1830; Mon 1230, 2230 on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 850, KOA Denver CO, Jan 29 at 1336 UT supposedly ``Colorado`s Morning News`` abruptly into 4-minute talk by Wisconsin`s new anti-government US Senator Ron Johnson. Apparently this week`s Republican radio address speaker; at end mentions Pres. Obama will be on sometime later, but never heard him before hourtop. 1343 promo for Rush: obviously KOA has a poor sense of what`s journalism and what`s far-right-wing-nutting. Own meteorologist made a couple of appearances predicting that on Tuesday, Denver`s hi might not exceed zero F, which is unusual even for the mi-hi city. At 1349 co-channel QRM peaked from a station with Catholish mass tonality, audible best in KOA null, along with Spanish CCI, but not sure what language the mass was in. There are too many 850 stations with a religious and/or Spanish format to make a guess, other than possibly WAIT Chicago. The EWTN affiliate list at http://www.ewtn.com/radio/amfm.htm does not show anything on 850 in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6297.1, Jan 28 at 2201, SASASAM with music and announcement, ute QRM now too as well as when I usually hear it better, after 0700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Sat, 29 Jan 2011 21:14:49 +0100 From: "Giampiero58" <giampier...@fastwebnet.it> To: "HCDX" <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: [HCDX] SW tips from Italy Message-ID: <DDA2427FEBC244958DCA9B5837C71C53@Bernardini> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" I went few days with Dario Monferini to Bocca di Magra (La Spezia province), at the seaside, for our Bocca di Magra DX nights (Boc 22).
