Fair signal declining to poor. It`s KNLS at 12-13, 285 degrees from Anchor Point (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BANGLADESH. 15105, Aug 23, little to no signals from Bangladesh Betar during the 1230 English and 1315 Nepali semihours; and from 1358 past 1400, no signal at all on 15505 where Urdu was expected, as IS was recorded yesterday for WORLD OF RADIO 1631. Really poor propagation today and/or have they changed frequencies again? The great-circle path from Dacca (as on my old globe) to Enid passes within 7 degrees of the North Pole at 83 N, and enters North America at Mould Bay on Prince Patrick Island (if it`s still called that) in the Canadian Arctic. Long path traverses the base of Palmer Peninsula, Antarctica (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake August 23, before 1300: 14700, JBA at 1227, none in the 11s, 12s, 13s 15555, very poor at 1254, het on lo side; none in the 16s, 17s 15710, poor at 1253; unusual spot, not in Aoki, nor any likely target, but probably a jumparound from Sound of Hope or Voice of Tibet via Tajikistan. Would you believe WHRI5 is on 15710 at 12-13? No, it`s not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, Aug 23 at 0553, gospel huxters discussing how wives must obey husbands, and gay marriage just won`t do, leading to adoption rather than procreation of children. 0558 wrapping up with no names of speakers or the program just heard, until next week; brief pause, no ID and 0559 starting another, Program #124, which is how Tony Alamo started his shows, and sure `nuff, it`s really him mumbling despite being incarcerated for 175 years following convixion for child sexual abuse. He notes that it`s Mothers` Day (no doubt from a year long ago), and prays that God will somehow ``take taxation off the people that I married``, i.e. minors. Chorus of assent from girls with him. Then YL starts reading letters allegedly from listeners, first from someone in Kinshasa, DR Congo (another tuner to 15190?) addressed to ``My dear Pastor Alamo``, then someone in Illinois. Thank you, Pan American Broadcasting, for keeping this monster on the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MADAGASCAR. Looks like the Talata relay is falling apart with all kinds of anomalies: 13840, Aug 23 at 0532 and still at 0540, open carrier/dead air instead of NHK relay in French. 13765, Aug 23 at 0532, Vatican Radio, Portuguese with continuous whistles/squeals worse than ever. 15400, Aug 23 at 0534 and several later chex before 0600, no signal from R. Dabanga, which is usually quite good. (Something very poor on 11650, presumably still Dabanga via Vatican; other Africans are in well on 19m: 15120 Nigeria, 15190 Equatorial Guinea, 15580 VOA BOTS.) Then there`s the 15580 collision at 2000 with VOA, still being investigated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MAURITANIA. 7245, Aug 23 at 0547, IGIM is on by now with usual soporific wake-up chanting session (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NIGERIA. 15120, Aug 23 at 0535, VON at S9+13 level with hum, distorted rock music. Many nights it is inaudible or off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 17615, Aug 23 at 1330-1348+, Qur`an from BSKSA; lovely performance by tenor and perfect for dozing as I didn`t get enough sleep last night. There`s no rhyme and no reason, especially if one doesn`t understand Arabic; if you have a bass voice, don`t even dream of becoming an Islamic cantor, why? We now have amplification and radio. Clearer and stronger here than // 17625 with its perpetual hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [non]. 15580, Aug 23 at 0537, good signal at S9+12 from VOA BOTSWANA with news in English. I believe this is `International Edition` which according to AFGE Local 1812 is now originally aired live only at 0530 and repeated later in the day without updating. 7575, Aug 23 at 1208, detailed report on row between Japan and China over disputed islands, eventually IDed as `Crossroads Asia` program. This is about to be canceled, per AFGE Local 1812, as in DXLD 12-33, but not yet. The 12-13 hour on 7575 radiates 18 degrees from Udorn, THAILAND, also USward. (A few minutes earlier, R. Japan was reporting on dispute between Japan and South Korea over some other islands.) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. Further chex for weak mystery carriers in the 11.7s (is anyone else hearing them, if not tracing them?): 11734, Aug 23 before 1300, this is the only one and not in sequence with the others. 11776, Aug 23 cuts on at *1259:43 hetting Anguilla, and then all the others at +/- 8 kHz intervals from 11760 are also audible: 11736, 11744, 11752, 11768, 11784. Are these emanating from something on 11760? There is CCI under RHC there, but not sure what (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Thu, 23 Aug 2012 21:14:11 -0700 (PDT) From: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> To: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> Cc: NASWA <na...@yahoogroups.com>, s...@mailman.qth.net Subject: [HCDX] DX Listening Digest 12-34; World of Radio 1631 Message-ID: <1345781651.99702.yahoomailclas...@web114011.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii DX Listening Digest 12-34 has now been posted at http://dxld.org or http://www.w4uvh.net/dxlatest.txt or http://dxld.worldofradio.org and now also without delay at http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1234.txt [as sometimes happens, upload of this edition as dxlatest has not been immediate, but has been immediate at the dxld1234.txt link above] CONTENTS: WOR 1631 / ALASKA / ALBANIA / ANGOLA / ARGENTINA / ASCENSION / ASIA non A12 / AUSTRALIA Symban / AUSTRALIA VL8A / AUSTRALIA +non RA / BAHRAIN / BANGLADESH +non / BARBADOS / BELARUS +non / BELGIUM non / BHUTAN / BOLIVIA / BRAZIL / CANADA CFRA / CANADA Montreal / CANADA CHHA / CANADA +non NHK/VOV / CANADA CKZU / CANADA DTV / CHAD / CHILE +non / CHINA +non / COLOMBIA / CONGO DR / COSTA RICA / CROATIA / CUBA +non / CYPRUS +non / DENMARK / DIEGO GARCIA / DJIBOUTI / EAST TURKISTAN / ECUADOR / EGYPT / EQUATORIAL GUINEA / ETHIOPIA +non / EUROPE Pirate / GAMBIA / GERMANY / GERMANY EAST / GUATEMALA / HAWAII / ICELAND / INDIA / INDONESIA / IRAN +non / IRELAND / ITALY / JAPAN +non / KASHMIR / KOREA NORTH +non / KOREA SOUTH / KUWAIT / LIBYA / MADAGASCAR / MALAYSIA / MALI / MAURITANIA / MEXICO +non / MICRONESIA / MONGOLIA +non / MYANMAR +non / NEW ZEALAND / NICARAGUA / NIGER / NIGERIA / NORTH AMERICA pirate / OKLAHOMA KGYN / OKLAHOMA KOSU/The Spy / OKLAHOMA KOHC/KXOK/MundoFox / PAKISTAN / PAPUA NEW GUINEA / PERU / PHILIPPINES +non / PRIDNESTROVYE / ROMANIA / RUSSIA / RWANDA / SAAR / SAUDI ARABIA / SCOTLAND non / SEYCHELLES / SOLOMON ISLANDS / SOMALILAND / SOUTH CAROLINA non / SPAIN / SRI LANKA non / SUDAN +non / SUDAN SOUTH non / SWEDEN / SWITZERLAND / TAHITI / TAIWAN +non B12+ / TIBET non / UGANDA / UKRAINE / UK BBCMW / UK BBCWS / USA +non VOA/BBG / USA non RFE/RL A12 / USA WOR/WTWW/WWRB/WBCQ/WRMI+ / USA WTWW / USA WWRB / USA WTJC / USA WINB / USA WBCQ / USA WHRI / USA KJES / USA WRNO / USA WEWN / USA +non WYFR / USA WJHR / USA AF MARS / USA KXNT / USA WINZ / USA KFLC / USA WFBL / URA KRVA / USA KYHN / USA WHKT / USA WFLA/WDVH/WPRD / USA WIWN / VIETNAM +non / WESTERN SAHARA non / ZAMBIA +non / ZANZIBAR / ZIMBABWE / UNIDENTIFIED 4025 / UNIDENTIFIED 6075 / UNIDENTIFIED 6160 / UNIDENTIFIED 6935 / UNIDENTIFIED 7200 / UNIDENTIFIED 9675 / UNIDENTIFIED non 9680 / UNIDENTIFIED 10000 / UNIDENTIFIED 11736/11744/11768/11776/11784 / UNIDENTIFIED 11995 / UNIDENTIFIED 12085 / UNIDENTIFIED 15180/15515 / UNIDENTIFIED 15438 / TESTIMONIALS / PUBLICATIONS / MUSEA / WORLD OF HOROLOGY / DX-PEDITIONS / CONVENTIONS & CONFERENCES / DIGITAL BROADCASTING / POWERLINE COMMUNICATIONS / RADIO EQUIPMENT FORUM / PROPAGATION For restrixions and searchable 2012 contents archive see http://www.worldofradio.com/dxldmid.html [also linx to previous years] NOTE: If you are a regular reader of DXLD, and a source of DX news but have not been sending it directly to us, please consider yourself obligated to do so.
