** ANTARCTICA. 15476, it`s Tuesday, so must be Base Esperanza? Not this week.
No sign of a signal at Sept 20 chex 1232, 1249, 1318, 1328, 1406, 1446. Latest
info was that LRA36 were on Tue & Thu only, after unsnowing the transmitter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Sept 20, before 1300:
7970, fair with flutter at 1231
10300, very good with flutter at 1242
11500, good at 1242 with CCI, lo het presumably de VOR Tajikistan
12500, fair at 1245
13920, fair at 1247
14800, very good at 1247
15545, expected FD here at 1255, but JBM OC so not sure, vs 15543 het which
went off a few sex past 1300*. See TIBET [non]
16100, very poor at 1253
Later chex found only:
15900, very poor at 1330
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 15595, Sept 20 at 1329 tones on and off catch my ear, what
will it be? 1330 DW jingle and ID to Afghanistan. Aoki shows 1330-1400 Dari &
1400-1430 Pashto, 200 kW, 104 degrees from Krasnodar, RUSSIA; HFCC disagrees:
250 kW, 110 degrees from Armavir (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUAM [non]. Re: KTWR 9910 posts --- Glenn, I noticed a surprising number of
posts related to KTWR on 9910 with DRM. That transmission was just a one-time
deal to check out the content server. The time of day was chosen so that no one
would be likely to hear it. Any subsequent noises or DRM signals on that
frequency are not coming from KTWR, hopefully. KTWR still uses that frequency
for analog broadcasts.
There were two official DRM test broadcasts on 15260 at 0000 UT on Sept. 15th
and 16th. That signal was 75 kW beamed toward India. No further DRM tests are
planned.
P.S. I remember listening to your DX info on the radio when I was a teenager
(35 years ago). My SWL hobby grew into ham radio and SW broadcasting (Mike
Sabin, Guam, Sept 20, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Mike, Tnx for clearing that up. I was beginning to have my doubts, but there
has certainly been some DRM-like noise around the frequency, maybe really a
ute. Hope you`ll let me know of any further developments at KTWR (Glenn to
Mike, via DXLD)
** INDIA. 15050, Sept 20 at 1333, AIR Sinhala service with nice music, marred
by hets on both sides varying slightly as they beat against central carrier,
somewhere between 1 and 2 kHz away; more obvious when switched to talk at 1335.
At 1410 I guesstimate it around one sesquikHz. Presumed self-inflicted from an
AIR transmitter. Aoki shows site Delhi (Khampur). I was disappointed to find
that DX Asia http://dxasia.info/india-frequency not only doesn`t deal with
sites, let alone sub-sites, but is still showing A-10 info! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 3325+, Sept 20 at 1236, presumed RRI Palangkaraya [interior S
Kalimantan], unreadable but detectable signal in hi local noise level, better
than anything else on 90m. Since I am frustrated from really hearing it, I
amuse myself with BFO comparing to 7325 CRI Japanese, and find that 3325 is
slightly on the hi side compared to 7325 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9525-, Tue Sept 20 at 1301 I attempt to comprehend VOI since it`s
Tuesday, maybe 50% at best; poor signal but initially in the clear, Banjarmasin
guy heard right away saying no rain today, temps 29-32, very nice weather. More
gab including only one SW frequency mentioned, now-correct 9525, and FM
95.something in Banj. 1304 begins news with jingle, first from Jak about
drought likely to last until rainy season in Oct. Alternates with items from
Banj announcers, first about a university; 1320 `Commentary` about some
government doing. 1324 mentions `Exotic Indonesia`, but hit by ACI from 9520
music [see PHILIPPINES], causing me to give up on VOI which also continued to
weaken (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Sunrise DX September 20: woke too late for the 1200 NAs.
1040, Sept 20 at 1223, singing ID as Radio Vida, 90.1. No, they must have sung
``Radio Visa``, as per Cant? link to the station:
http://radiovisa.com.mx/guaymas/
1040 XEGYS La Primera + FM 90.1 Guaymas, Son. 5,000 250
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. While parked in a store lot near West O.K. Garriott &
Cleveland in western Enid, I performed FM and AM bandscans between 1920 and
1930 UT September 19. Of note, mostly on the local scene:
87.9, open carrier [quieting] at first, no doubt some other car`s unused RF
feeder, gone at 1929 recheck. (OK, not really of note)
92.1, open carrier and hum from KAMG-LP Enid. This has been the case more often
that not for at least the past week. Station seems to have been abandoned by
whoever bought it from its once enthusiastic latino preacher-founder
93.3, big distorted hum spreading to adjacent channels, bit of C&W music
audible. This is the translator K227AT of KIMY 93.9 Watonga, and just the
latest of SNAFUs affecting it. Another one without adequate supervision. Who
cares?
97.7, ``WECS`` at Emmanuel Christian School, just a block away, definitely off
the air, as it has been since July or August. This is the Part 15 which used to
feature kids doing a rote loop of birthday greetings, day in history, Bible
verses, altho when last heard an adult teacher was wrapping up the school year
and anticipating the next one. We can still see its presumed vertical antenna
atop the Baptist kilo-church [bigger than average, but less than a
mega-church]. I wanted to scan entire band from in-range in case it had moved;
unfound
99.9, GCN Pirate in S Enid is still missing, nor found on any other frequency
either
530, robotic YL weather presumably NWS relayed by KTA [Kansas Turnpike
Authority] in S Kansas [nearest spot of multiple outlets: South Haven], very
weak but monitoring in low-noise pocket; and with SAH from another HAR/TIS
1050, lo het dominated by music: KKRX Lawton OK is still off-frequency vs KGTO
Tulsa
1120, KEOR Catoosa is still silent as it has been for many months now
1640, local KFXY which I last reported as undermodulated, is now back up to
full modulation and adjacent splash. Whee! BTW, it does put a local-like signal
into OKC daytime, tnx to 10 kW direxional figure-8
1670, Talking House JBA at this location, no doubt the same one in NW Enid as
heard for months since the owner and realtor forget about it, wasting
milliwatts, not enough to feed hungry Cubans (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9520, Sept 20 at *1324 music splash ruins reception from
Indonesia on 9525-, a love song (for Jesus?), outroed as ``Just for You``, 1327
IS and R. Veritas Asia ID in English, ``Sinhala service on 9.520 MHz to begin
at 1330 hours UTC`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TIBET [non]. 15543, Sept 20 at 1258-1300:10* very weak signal hetting
another weak one on 15545, presumed V. of Tibet in typical split-frequency
behavior vs ChiCom jamming which keeps to multiplesw of 5. Latest Aoki of
September 20, 2011 at 0600 UT does not include 15543, but exact times and
frequencies are liable to change every day. Is Dushanbe-Yangiyul, TAJIKISTAN
site, which in the 15.5-15.6 MHz range Aoki lists as:
1200-1212 15553
1212-1230 15517
1238-1301 15553
1328-1337 15527
1337-1400 15537
1401-1430 15557
Note how they all end in -3 or -7. All shown as Chinese, 100 kW, 95 degrees,
except: 1238-1301 on 15553, 1401-1430 on 15557, 100 kW, 131 degrees in Tibetan;
why different azimuths per language? And how does Aoki know all this? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 17820, Sept 20 at 1337* and *1338 large open carrier, once
again Greenville testing long prior to Portuguese at 1700 on same to Africa;
during less than the minute off, weak signal from DW Hausa uncovered, via
PORTUGAL; checked // 17800 which is normally much stronger, via RWANDA, aimed
USward, but it was even weaker! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 880, Sept 20 at 1215 UT, song about Jesus in unknown language,
east-west in KRVN null. Previously had skipped over religion here, assuming
merely 50 kW Arkansawyer KLRG, but 1218 talk in Navajo! With some English words
such as ``satisfied``, ``illegal``. 1219 another hymn, 1221 gone. Therefore
it`s KHAC Tse Bonito NM, a.k.a. Window Rock AZ on the border, non-direxional 50
kW day, 430 watts night. Time was around sunrise in Enid, long before in
Tse/Rock = Window/Bonito but NRC AM Log shows schedule as 12-06 UT; nothing
about a PSRA, so which power was it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Maybe this has been commented already, but;
sounds like All India Radio extended sports program.

4055 GUATEMALA, Radio Verdad, heard 21 September starting at 0350 GMT
when I rolled across it. Playing light piano religious music (even
heard Amazing Grace) into ID on the hour and more music. Annoying het
started at 0403 and made the listening unbearable. Just a carrier, no
modulation, so causing difficulties.
