** CANADA. 990, Dec 25 at 0630, CBW Winnipeg is playing Satchmo`s Santa Claus
song, quite a contrast to 1000 KTOK OKC with Handel`s Messiah. CBW is our only
regularly listenable Canadian here, often dominant from before sunset to after
sunrise, but the channel is hardly `clear` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CANADA. 1610, Dec 25 at 0615 jingle and ID in English ``You`re listening to
1610 AM --- Radio Voces Latinas``, onward with music in Spanish, i.e. CHHA
Toronto. Was KATZ 1600 IBOC noise off? Probably just in a lucky fade, as IBOC
peaking 1613 was certainly bothering CHHA at 0640 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Re my previous report recommending `China Horizon` with Xmas music in
Chinese this week: Alan Roe, UK, had already done the same and found where it`s
at on CRI website:
``A very pleasant programme and worth tuning-in --- or downloading at
http://media.iphone.cri.cn/features/horizons/2011/1225horizons.mp3
China Horizons is scheduled from xx.30 to xx.55 on Sunday at 00, 01, 02, 03,
04, 05, 06, 07, 09, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 19, and 22 UT``
(Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5040, Dec 25 at 0607, RHC is still on with news past nominal 0600*. It
seems the programming feed keeps playing back whether the transmitters run late
or not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. 7245, Dec 25 at 0603, IGIM is on and chanting. Signal has not
been as strong as usual lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Pre-sunrise logs Dec 25, UT:
710, Dec 25 at 1320 UT, PSA calling for denouncing delinquency to the (federal)
army with phone numbers, complicated e-mail address, also mentions Chihuahua
and Cuauht?moc, so one more time for XEDP.
760, Dec 25 at 1325 promos for station website, 1326 ID in passing as R. Geny,
live timecheck for 6:22: not exactly. Is XENY in Nogales, Sonora, not likely on
nite power of 100 watts vs day power 5000.
850, Dec 25 at 1311 UT, NA is playing at odd time, 1312 sign-on for XHHM on FM
and XEM 850 Chihuahua, right into ``Put Your Head On My Shoulder`` song in
English. This is R. Renacimiento per Cant? but did not hear that name, and
confirms their FM is XHHM on 103.7. KOA easily nulled again from roughly 90
degrees away.
1040, Dec 25 at 1330 UT, PSAs for IFE, 1332 singing ID for 104.1 Radio
Fiesta(?). Nulling what there is of WHO, I expected the usual Guaymas or
Chihuahua, but the 104.1 match fits for XEGR in Jalapa, Veracruz, listed as OK
Radio by IRCA, WRTH and Cant?. I still suspect it was not XEGR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 6010, Dec 25 before and after 1400 UT, I am having a hard time
hearing any sign of XEOI, Radio Mil, altho it`s fortunately between the Korean
jammers on 6003 and 6015. Nor at various other chex lately. I wonder if it`s
off the air, or at reduced power? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Xmas causes lots of anomalous programming, even news/talk format
stations going musical, such as 1000 KTOK OKC, Dec 25 at 0627 playing Handel`s
Messiah ? the whole thing? Replacing `Coast to Coast`. Contrast with CBW on
990, see CANADA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 960, my local KGWA Enid, Sunday Dec 25 at 1306 UT in `Cowboy
Corner` with Red Steagall, nationally syndicated show I have run across on
various stations, but not KGWA. His affiliate list
http://www.cowboycorner.com/stations.html shows instead KGWA`s FM side, KOFM
103.1, Sundays at 7 am. Maybe they were unusually simulcasting for the holiday
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENIG DIGEST)
** U S A. 720, Dec 25 at 1317 UT, Spanish is way over WGN, but it`s not XE.
SHVA [super-hype voice actor] exclaims ``104.1 FM y 720 AM, Norte?a, La Raza``
which chex as KSAH San Antonio (COL Universal City).
770, Dec 25 at 1327, ABC report about the Arab Spring, likely yearender on
`Perspective` as long scheduled on KKOB Albuquerque for 6-7 am Sundays, but far
before sunrise during null toward NYC and me, may well be the co-channel
non-direxional 230-watt relay in Santa Fe which is on the air only at night
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5890, Dec 25 at 1343, piano jazz which must be VOA Korean service,
via TINIAN, yes // 9555 Tinang, PHILIPPINES; not // the simultaneous Sunday
13-14 `Jazz America` on VOA English 7575 et al. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1596 monitoring: confirmed on webcast of WTWW 5755, UT
Sunday Dec 25 at 0500. John Carver points out that the pattern on Area 51 has
been alternate weeks with Johnny Lightning until 0400 UT Mondays on 5110v-CUSB;
Larry Will`s pirate show 0300 and WORLD OF RADIO 0330 the other weeks, so this
would be an off-week for us. Remaining WRMI 9955 airings: Sunday 1630 and 1830

My Christmas morning DX -
7200 Radio Ethiopia, 1600 25 Dec, weak with IS matching what's posted on
intervalsignals.net, then ID in English, of which I caught "...external
service of Radio Ethiopia broadcasting in English in the 31 meter band
and 41 meter band, (unintelligible) medium wave". News followed, but
quickly covered by ham QRM. Aoki has them listed in English at this
time on 7235 & 9560. 7200 seems like an odd choice for an external
service, with Sudan and Eritrea using the frequency as well. I also
had talk and distinctive theme music, presumably from Ethiopia, in
unknown language with fair signal at 1520-1535 (Bruce Portzer, Seattle,
WA, Winradio Excalibur, K9AY antenna)
Merry Christmas everyone

Bruce,
as Mauno Ritola in Finland explained before,
7200 Ethiopia is a domestic program jammer against Eritrea Vo Broad Masses 1
(Dimtsi Hafash) Asmara-Selae Daro program, latter usually and registered on
7205 kHz, latter which hopped away 5 kHz down to 7200 kHz past days to met
Omdurman Sudan, and Kabul-AFG adjacent channel too, and Ethiopian jammer
followed as a twin 5 kHz down ...
