** CHINA. Firedrake July 24; before 1300:
10300, good at 1235. Had not heard this one since July 9, altho S. Handler had
it on July 10.
11500, good at 1235
12900, good at 1240
14700, very good at 1242; none in the 13s
14950, good at 1242; none in the 15`s
16100, poor-fair at 1245
16980, very poor at 1245
After 1300:
16980, very poor at 1323
16100, JBA at 1324
15670, poor at 1304 mixed with CNR1 jamming; no TOH break here!
15565, poor at 1325
15545, very poor at 1325; unusual to have two at once, nearby 15565
14700, very good at 1327
13920, very good at 1328
12025, poor at 1313, mixed with CNR1 jamming, probably // 15670; very poor at
1328
11500, poor at 1328
10300, poor at 1329
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also CUBA [and non]
** CUBA [and non]. 15230, July 24 at 1307, mixing with CNR1 causing SAH,
Commies vs Commies; again no listing or reason for CNR1 to be here. During ``En
Contacto`` DX program from 1335, RHC briefly off the air at 1341-1343 clearing
15230 for China. Quick check of other RHC frequencies found 13680 and 13780
were still on but without modulation during this disruption amid another opus
in the series ``?Qu? le ha tra?do a Vd. el Diexismo?`` -- What has DXing done
for you? This one written but not read by Lu?s Cristi?n Alonso, C?rdoba,
Argentina. See also VENEZUELA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 9650, KBSWR in English via CANADA, July 24 at 1248 is
about equal level with VOK direct in Japanese, producing SAH of about 5 Hz. KBS
doggedly stix to this frequency, unnecessarily clashing with the other side. I
daresay Sackville is no problem for VOK reception in Japan (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Not much Es TVDX but MUF briefly poked up to channel 2 around 0400
UT July 24, Spanish from the south (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. 6170, July 24 at 1229, RNZI is on in program about the premi?re
of Verdi`s A?da in Egypt in 1871y; nothing on 9655 where RNZI is supposed to be
at this hour. 1231 on to interview with a film director and more cultural
items. 6170 is supposed to resume at 1300, so I monitored closely before then:
amid old movie music, 1257:30 cut to dead air for a minute; unaware of reality
in the studio, automation at 1258:30 ran QSY announcement from ``this
frequency`` to 6170! ``This is New Zealand``, bell bird IS, no carrier breaks,
and 1300 news. Must be another case of misprogrammed automation. Some other
monitors noted that 6170 did not change to 9655 at 1100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [non]. 13620, July 24 at 0525, R. Dabanga via MADAGASCAR, and no
tone-jamming for a change; after jingle ID, off at 0527:30* leaving only weak
carrier and no modulation audible from next site, Nauen, GERMANY (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12100, after July 22`s problems getting WTWW-3 to stay on the air,
checked again July 23 at 1250: not yet on. But at next check 1254 it had come
on and stayed on, in Arabic. Recently has been missing after 0500, but July 24
still on at 0530, Bible in English. I think the reader mispronounced learn?d as
``learned`` in the context. Off again at 1239 check, but by 1254 it was going
again, in Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1574 monitoring: reconfirmed on WTWW-1, 5755, UT
Sunday July 24 from 0400:42, VG reception here. Seems this is always preceded
by talk about sorcery on the streets of Washington DC, break for WTWW ID,
something from SFAW about gun control, then WOR.
Remaining airings this week: on 9955 WRMI, Sunday 1530, 1730 (also on WRN via
SiriusXM 120); Monday 1130, 1530, 2130; Tuesday & Wednesday 1530. On Area 51
via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB: UT Monday 0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9370, WTJC continues to be a blight on the band: July 24 at 0540
check, distorted and spurring out to plus/minus 25 kHz. 1222 very distorted on
fundamental and even bothering very strong WHRI 9410 which is on the air
Sundays only; blocking WBCQ on 9330, QRMing YFR Taiwan 9280, and spurs audible
down to 9265 where there is no WINB. Worse peaks around 9350 and 9390 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13570, July 24 at 1309, WINB is on in the mornings now Sundays only;
usual unstable carrier with BFO, and now also hit by WEWN 13580 squishy spur.
WINB airing off-key hymn-singing with piano, ``What a Friend`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VENEZUELA [non]. 11705, July 24 at 1237, RNV via CUBA missing, maybe because
it`s Sunday? But not required due to transmitter usage. RHC audible as usual on
6000, 6150, 9550, 11690, 11760, 11830, 12040, 15120, 15230, 15360. Latest news
from Venezuela is that their own site should be on the air by the end of this
year, a couple years late (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Cambodia's Prime Minister Hun Sen.
"VOA journalists around the world, including those covering developments in
Cambodia,
adhere to the highest journalistic standards of accuracy and objectivity,
standards mandated
by U.S. law."
Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen on Friday sharply criticized Voice of America
and Radio
Free Asia, saying their news reports are "very inferior."
He accused the two broadcasters, both funded by the U.S. government under the
Broadcasting Board of Governors, of distorting information, or containing
"zero" information.
The prime minister made the comments in response to a question by a VOA Khmer
Service
journalist at a news conference in Cambodia. The question was about the Khmer
Rouge
tribunal, and Mr. Hun Sen said it was not among the topics to be covered by the
news
conference, which followed a meeting of his cabinet and was chiefly dominated
by questions
about Cambodia's border dispute with Thailand.
Mr. Hun Sen praised Radio France International and offered to hire Cambodian
staff at VOA
and RFA to work at Cambodian news stations.
VOA responded to the prime minister's comments by saying, "VOA journalists
around the
world, including those covering developments in Cambodia, adhere to the highest
journalistic
standards of accuracy and objectivity, standards mandated by U.S. law."
The Cambodian government has opposed increasing the number of cases heard by
the
Khmer Rouge tribunal, a joint Cambodia and international court that is trying
leaders of the
Khmer Rouge, which ruled the country in the late 1970s. More than a million
people died
under the Khmer Rouge - many of them starved or worked to death, and others
executed.
One person has been convicted by the tribunal and four others are being
prosecuted. The
government says adding more cases could be harmful to national stability.
VOA provides news in more than 40 languages via shortwave and FM radio,
television,
satellite and the Internet. RFA provides news to Asia.
The Broadcasting Board of Governors also oversees Radio Free Europe/Radio
Liberty, the
Middle East Broadcasting Networks, and the Office of Cuba Broadcasting.Standard

The Shortwave Report 07/22/11 Listen Globally!
by Dan Roberts ( outfarpress(at)saber.net )
Thursday Jul 21st, 2011 4:59 PM
A weekly 30 minute review of international news and opinion, recorded from
a shortwave
radio and the internet. With times, frequencies, and websites for listening at
home. 3 files-
HIGHEST QUALITY BROADCAST, regular broadcast, and slow-modem streaming. Free to
rebroadcast. China, Japan, Germany, Cuba, and Russia.
Dear Radio Friend,
The latest Shortwave Report (July 22) is up at the website
http://www.outfarpress.com/shortwave.shtml in 3 forms- (new) HIGHEST QUALITY
(128kb)(27MB), broadcast quality (16MB), and quickdownload or streaming form
(6MB)
(28:59) Links at page bottom
(If you have access to Audioport there is a highest quality version posted up
there {27MB}
http://www.audioport.org/index.php?op=producer-info&uid=904&nav=&;)
This week's show features stories from China Radio International, NHK Japan,
Radio
Deutsche-Welle, Radio Havana Cuba, and the Voice of Russia.
>From CHINA- Conoco-Philips say they have cleaned up half of the massive oil
>spill off the
coast of China. Iran claims to have shot down an unmanned US spy plane. A
quirky report on
the use of texting on cell phones to aid people trying to break their tobacco
addiction.
>From JAPAN- Japan released a map showing radiation levels in the air 150 km
>away from
Fukushima to be as bad as that 50 km away. Beef raised for meat in Japan has
been found
to have been contaminated with radiation from rice straw. The EU has required
member
nations to draw up final disposal plans for spent nuclear fuel rods. The US has
been briefed
on Japanese plans for eliminating nuclear power. The US has continued
conducting sub-
critical nuclear weapons testing underground in Nevada.
>From GERMANY- There is a Eurozone summit in Brussels to discuss the spreading
>financial
crisis in Europe, with the possibility of the demise of the Euro.
>From CUBA- Nicaraguans celebrated the 32nd anniversary of the Sandinista
>revolution, and
President Ortega wants a referendum demanding that the US pay damages for its
involvement in the civil war. A BP oil pipeline ruptured in the North Slope of
Alaska last
weekend- a second oil spill occurred in Montana on the Blackfeet Indian
reservation. Russia
has rejected the adoption of a UN resolution against Syria, similar to the one
against Libya.
>From RUSSIA- As the US faces worsening economic news requiring huge cuts in
>social
spending, the so-called "Defense budget" continues to soar. US officials have
made it clear
that the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, or CTBT, will not be sent to
the Senate for
ratification.
There is an article about the Shortwave Report by Cassandra Roos on line -
http://www.campusprogress.org/soundvision/780/big-stories-shortwaves
I was interviewed for an informative weekly radio show Mediageek, available at
http://radio.mediageek.net
All that plus times and frequencies for listening at home. It's free to
rebroadcast, please notify
me if you're airing it and haven't notified me in the last month, please
mention the website if
you only air a portion. If you just want to listen and have a slow connection,
try the streaming
version- lower sound quality but good enough and way easier if you don't have a
high-speed
internet connection. If streaming is a problem because of your slow connection,
download the
smaller file- it takes 20 minutes or less, and will play swell in any mp3
player application
(RealPlayer, Winamp, Quicktime, iTunes, etc) you have on your computer.
This program will be aired on Friday evening at 6:30pm (PDST) on KZYX/Z Philo
CA, you
might be able to stream via < http://www.kzyx.org >
There are several other streams that work better- < http://www.freakradio.org
>Freak Radio
Santa Cruz now streams this program on Friday at 9:00am.(PDST)
NEWLY CORRECTED!!! The Shortwave Report may be downloaded as a podcast from <
feed://radio.indymedia.org/en/podcast?keys=shortwave++
I hope you'll listen and air this if you're connected with a radio station. I
am still wondering
how to get financially compensated for the 25 hours I put into this program
weekly- any ideas
are appreciated. Any stations rebroadcasting this (or listeners) are welcome to
donate for
production costs. You can do so through the website. Many thanks to those that
have
donated! No Guilt! (maybe a little)
