DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS UPDATED:
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html

WORLD OF RADIO SCHEDULE UPDATED:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html

** BOUGAINVILLE. 6020.00, Feb 4 at 0746, I have an S7-S9 signal, no QRM at all, 
with lo-key talk possibly in English; 0748 music, 0753 talk, 0758 piano music, 
and singing past 0801. 0802 an announcement I think mentioning NBC, cut off the 
air abruptly at 0802:44*. 

I figure the reactivated NBC outlet here has finished with its day frequency at 
7 pm local, and is moving to night frequency 3325, which I do not expect to 
propagate this early, and do not hear; and besides it`s way past my bedtime. 
This was certainly not on 6020.7 where Karel Honzik recently reported it by 
long path to Czechia around this same time of day; maybe initially they did not 
have the frequency accurately tuned up.

Yet I`m awake again at 1248, to find an S9 signal with music on 3325, maybe a 
second carrier? Not sure. But I decide this is INDONESIA, q.v.

6020, Feb 4 at 1315 I finally check NBC`s day frequency, and there it is, after 
midnight local time! With Indonesia on 3325, and only two frequencies 
available, it makes sense to stay/resume on 6020, altho designed for day 
propagation only. This is S9, and no sign of Vietnamese from Vietnam, or 
anything else on 6020. I hear some English words, constitution, people of 
Solomons, so in suspected Tok Pisin; lo-key studio announcer is interviewing 
various people on phone, with brief instrumental music interludes between, and 
abruptly faded out when someone else is ready to speak. 1320 seems to mention 
numbers, phone? 1323 music (different music on 3325 with Indonesia); 1324 back 
to tok in Pisin; 1326 music; 1330 phone talk; 1333 hear feminine voice on phone 
for first time; 1335 music and running-water ute QRM; 1356 woman singing, music 
past 1400, song maybe mentions ``my country``, anthem? 1401 definite ID by YL 
as ``NBC National Radio``, back to more music with autotune. At 1402,
  6020 is S9+20; 1405 mentions Papua New Guinea, another song; 1410 NBC promo, 
mostly music. 1415, half a sesquihour after sunrise here, beginning to fade 
down, to only S9 by 1420; JBA carrier by 1443. If they are still testing the 
new 10 kW transmitter, can`t be sure which frequency if either will be on air 
at any particular time the next days. I wonder what kind of antenna, not NVIS? 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** COLOMBIA. 5910.05, Feb 4 at 0547, tropical music at S9+15, so Alcarav?n 
Radio is back on its usual + offset; no QRM now. BTW, the Tennesseans on 5830, 
5890, 5935 are much weaker, S7 very poor, not always the case. I had thought 
HJDH inactive, as I have not been hearing it after ~0630 when I usually start 
bedtime monitoring. Maybe they sign off circa 0600 now? Also check for sibling 
on 6010, finding only a JBA carrier, maybe something other than Conciencia. I 
don`t check again until 0744 when 5910 is definitely off.

I see in WRTH 2016 schedule as 23-10 UT for both 6010 and 5910, but 5910 has a 
single dagger by it, unexplained, unlike the double dagger meaning inactive 
next to the only other Colombian SW listed, HJOY, LV del Guaviare, 2000-0300 
with 5 kW on 6035 --- which has been gone for years, so is there some reason to 
expect it back? The April 2015 Domestic Broadcasting Survey from DSWCI has it 
on the ever-expanding roster of deleted stations, as not heard since May 2011 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 5004.99, Feb 4 at 0520, very poor signal combating storm 
noise far from our area, with music, presumed R. Bata. I`m checking during this 
hour encouraged by Ron Howard re-hearing it in further California. By 0543 it`s 
up to S7 with talk, can`t tell if Spanish; 0556 still JBA. Very slightly on the 
lo side (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9934.945 approx., Feb 3 at 0652, defective ERT Avlis transmitter is 
back on, just barely modulated music with whine, S5-S8 about equal signal level 
to OK // 9420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4055, Feb 4 at 0528, R. Truth has preacher in English as usual 
during the final hour of the broadcast day, and still no sign of any clone 
signals around it. Ditto Feb 4 at 1250, one S7-9 station in Spanish, very poor 
S6 by 1310. On Feb 3 got this from Dr. Madrid:

``Dear Glenn Houser and V?ctor Guti?rrez: Our test transmissions for Radio 
Verdad are on the same frequency 4055 kHz. However, in some countries the 
frequency may vary a Little (one or two points). If a country is close to 
Guatemala, the frequency may vary a little bit, in order not to bother our 
master signal. We are not using any transmitters, but only computers, which 
inject the signal into many short wave antennas. They are attempting to 
maintain the same frequency 4055, as far as it is possible. 

It is a completely new technology on trial. A group of European, US and one 
Mexican Engineers are working on it. It is a scientific experiment in order to 
rescue short wave. I myself do not fully comprehend the system. The whole 
transmission system is being controlled by satellite, and also the power 
injected into all short wave antennas in the whole world.

I have paid different amounts of money for the United States, Canada, Europe, 
Africa, Russia, China, Japan, Mexico, South America and the Caribbean Islas. I 
hope everything comes out all right, as it is a scientific experiment.

The schedule is the same as regular Radio Verdad, beginning by 1000 UT up to 
0605 UT. This set of tests will last only this weeks. This week transmissions 
are being sent from Guatemala City, but, depending on the results, we?ll start 
permanent transmissions from Chiquimula. I will appreciate any reports about 
the quality and strength of the signal. May God be with you, Dr. ?dgar Am?lcar 
Madrid, Radio Verdad & Radio Verdad TV``

Can anyone explain how this could possibly work? If I were he, before handing 
over any money, would insist/demand that the purveyors explain exactly how this 
is supposed to be accomplished. It makes no sense to me, and I am almost 
certain this is a scam and a fraud, and have told Dr Madrid so. If anyone is so 
inclined, a thorough search for 4055v signals on SDRs around the world might 
disprove this, or prove, if R. Verdad is heard at a time of day when it could 
not possibly propagate from Guatemala. So far he says he has got good reports 
from Panam? and Indonesia, no details (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1811, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 3325, Feb 3 at 1400, barely make out a Radio Republik Indonesia 
ID vs hash on the channel probably local device QRM. So Palangkaraya instead of 
Bougainville. Palangkaraya is inland south-central Borneo (Kalimantan). The two 
are 4222 km apart, or 2623 miles, so perhaps to them it seems like they can 
share a frequency.

3325, Feb 4 at 1248, S9 signal with music, so now is it Bougainville or 
Palangkaraya? 1300 soft announcement, 1302.5 announcement with music and 
hard-sell ads(?), think language is Indonesian, 1307 music. (At 1315 I start 
monitoring 6020 and find Bougainville, q.v. is still there on its `day` 
frequency at local midnight). At 1324, 3325 is playing different music than 
6020; at 1356, 3325 has become much weaker, naturally fading down earlier than 
6 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 7400, Feb 4 at 1327, Sea Breeze still here, with usual 
YL, seemingly in English as on Thursdays, heavy ACI from 7405 Radio Mart? and 
Cuban jamming. Seems like there is also some CCI underneath 7400, which would 
be CRI Burmese via Kunming. 1356 before closing, some more Shiokaze-style talk 
and music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, Feb 4 at 1449, VP signal S5-7 with flutter, presumed KBS 
WR in Korean --- first sign of this all winter, the so-called North American 
service at 14-15, which KBS insists on keeping to the 15 MHz band which won`t 
propagate thru the winter nights. It`ll be longer before the previous hour 
13-14 in English also starts to show, both to continue in A-16 when they will 
finally work much of the time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** OKLAHOMA. RF 40, Feb 3, I notice that KAUT ``43``, OKC, has added another 
subchannel to 43-2 THISTV: on 43-3 is ESCAPE, a network I had never heard of. 
Logo bug in lower right has the P raised so the top part of it is 
missing/escaPing. KAUT itself is a substation of KFOR,
http://kfor.com/category/freedom-43/
and guess what, searching here on ESCAPE gets no significant hits. This is so 
unimportant to KFOR/KAUT that they don`t even acknowledge it on website. If you 
can find it on the
http://kfor.com/on-air/program-schedule/
page, there is a program schedule for KAUT-DT2 never calling it what it is, 
THISTV, but nothing for a KAUT-DT3. I found it on an STB, but my Sanyo DTV set 
doesn`t want to recognize anything on 40 unless I rescan searching for all OTA 
DTV signals again --- which means I might lose some of the others it captured 
last time.

The ESCAPE movie network does exist already in many other markets, but first 
time seen around here: http://www.escapetv.com/ It seems this specializes in 
crime movies and shows, so never mind (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 7325-, Feb 4 at 1257, very poor carrier remains, after CRI 
Japanese cuts off for a couple minutes, so presumed Wantok Radio Light is 
active. See also BOUGAINVILLE (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. BURNS, OREGON ON HAM RADIO --- Glen[n]: Tennessee ham radio operator 
David Parrish (callsign KI4THY) is interviewing various people living in Burns, 
Oregon with his phone patch and transmitting the conversations over the air on 
3843 kHz [LSB?]. He has done this on previous nights as well. He has spoken to 
local citizen activist YouTubers, a mother and daughter working as manager and 
waitress at a local tavern, a desk clerk at a local motel and other figures. 
Other ham radio operators and phone callers from around the U.S. are asking 
questions and making comments in the discussion. It is also being streamed on 
http://livehams.com by another ham (Des Preston, KB8UYJ, Ann Arbor, Michigan, 
Sent from my iPhone, 0722 UT Jan 29, DX LISTENING DIGEST via dxldyg without 
delay, WORLD OF RADIO 1811)

Despite posting the above to the 800+ DXLD yg members, it got zero response, 
and I myself did not get around to checking it until:

3843-LSB, Feb 4 at 0532, S9+25 signal from main ham about the Burns, Oregon 
standoff at a National Wildlife Refuge. Says people will be calling in during 
next hour. Hopes someone will record and put it on YouTube. It`s ``KI4THY, 
Captain Dave, here`` at 0533. Jamie and Dan will be live from the Pine Room 
Lounge in Burns shortly, a ``real volatile situation``. 0537 someone on phone, 
Ernest, KG4QIX, who is ``almost twin`` of KI4THY, really brothers? Invites SWLs 
to call in, but never hear a phone number. Brief `jamming` by someone singing. 
Reference to livehams.com; and to High Desert Amateur Radio Group, in Bend and 
Burns. Waiting for people to get off work; 0542 Dave is ``taking a break to 
change the ice on the deck``, ha ha. Now a spoiler emits several ``oink, oinx`` 
in the pause. 0550 resumes net. Says Danny in Burns OR is coming up; 0601 ``we 
got four people hanging on out there``. Unfortunately, at this point I have to 
QRX and finish distributing WORLD OF RADIO. Apparently
  they are doing this every night around midnight Central, and will continue 
for the duration. 

Not till 0733 UT am I back on 3843-LSB and find the post-discussion still going 
about this ``cliff-hanger``. Someone asks Dave about his phone patch. Says it`s 
home-made, and with a Bluetooth module it`s easy to hook up a cell phone to it. 
After transmission from an N5 in Waco, ``keep your powder dry``, trying to 
clear the net. Someone says ``tune to 3833 for the rest of the story``, but I 
hear nothing there immediately in a quick check. 

Since I missed the body of the broadcast (?) tonight, I`m still not quite sure 
where Dave and his friends are coming from. Are they doing impartial journalism 
by interviewing onlookers in Burns, or are they militia supporters? Or some of 
both? The question also arises whether this use of ham radio is kosher, altho 
it certainly makes for interesting monitoring. At least they are not trying to 
hide anything, using their callsigns. 

Where is KI4THY? 691 LAKEVIEW ST, ESTILL SPRINGS, TN 37330. His QRZ.com profile 
includes: ``73's to all from beautiful Tims Ford Lake, East of Lynchburg and 
West of Estill Springs, Tn. KI4THY is a Vietnam veteran and served the US Navy

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1810 monitoring: confirmed UT Wed Feb 3 at 0030 on 
WBCQ 9330-CUSB, at S9+10/20 after at least 5 minutes of The Planet IS & IDs 
prior to new sign-on time. That`s because Allan Weiner surprised me with this: 
``Hi Glenn, I have decided to carry WOR all seven days on 9330. Will be on 7:30 
to 8pm, except Sat. will be on 6:30 to 7p. All times EST. Hope this helps. 
Thanks for all you do. Allan``. 

So in terms of UT that means Mon-Sat 0030, and Sat 2330. At tune-in frequency 
was about 9329.87, but by 0054 it had warmed up to 9330.000. Also confirmed 24 
hours later UT Thu Feb 4 at 0030 on 9330.0. Due to our produxion schedule, the 
first airing here of new WORs will be UT Fridays (and the previous 9330 airing 
at 0200 UT Friday, expected to shift to 0300, will no longer be necessary).

WOR 1810 also confirmed Wed Feb 3 at 1415.5 on WRMI 9955 (following FG Radio, 
Cyprus, with a short-story ``classic reading`` from Robert Louis Stevenson; 
why? We`ve heard RLS on FGR before, and wonder if it`s the same story, an 
``evergreen`` standby episode instead of any news? BTW their website has not 
been updated since last May, with outdated schedules, 
http://famagusta-gazette.com/FG-radio-158.htm
including this Wed 1400 on 9955 but with summer timing of Wed 1300.

WOR 1810 also confirmed Wed Feb 3 during the WBCQ 2200 airing, at 2211 when it 
was on about 7490.0; rechecked after 0030, this had as usual drifted down 
slightly to the lo side of 7490. 

WORLD OF RADIO 1811 monitoring: confirmed first SW airing Thu Feb 4 after 1230 
on WRMI 9955: at 1253 check it`s S9+10 with pulse jamming; tnx a lot, Arnie! 
Also confirmed Thu at 2100 on WRMI 7570, good. Also confirmed NEW: UT Friday 
Feb 5 at 0030 on WBCQ 9330.135-CUSB. Next:

** U S A. Shortly after posting my latest logs, heard from Jeff White, that the 
WRMI transmission grid has now been updated,
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nEVwCMB9RSKowLzLXamyayVpCzjmPAw_SB1r3YOdzQc/edit?pref=2&pli=1#gid=0

So the second entry for ``5850`` on the TOM website really applies to 7730:

5850 West/Midwest USA & NE Asia Daily
0100-0700
0900-1000
1100-2300
8pm-2am
4am-5am
6am-6pm

5850 [sic] Western N America & Mexico Daily
0100-0700
0800-0000
8pm-2am
3am-7pm

[two entries for 5850? Does that mean two transmitters/antennas at once? Would 
be something new for WRMI. Or meant to apply to a different frequency?]

242 hours a day of course is equivalent to an average of TEN+ BS transmitters 
at once thruout the day, 24/7. Margin of error: Jeff White confirms that it`s 
nominally 10 x 24 = 240 hours per day.

5850, Feb 3 at 0701, as expected above, this frequency is taking a break from 
BS, with fill music, while 5015, 5950 and 7570 are still BS; also 7730 has gone 
to music instead of BS. At this hour in the nightmiddle, BS is also still 
audibly transmitting on day frequencies 11580, 11825, 11920, plus 13695 with a 
JBA carrier.

11580, Wed Feb 4 at 2125, surprised to hear `Walking in Power` outroduxion on 
this frequency at this hour, which per revised schedule is supposed to be part 
of the deka-frequency BS-blast from WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490, UT Tuesday Feb 2 at 0100-0200, WBCQ is presumably broadcasting 
first episode of new weekly show, `From the Isle of Music`. But since I`m busy 
at the computer, I condescend to listen to the webstream instead, despite the 
perfect ``reception`` for this show designed for shortwave. The host is a big 
Cuban music fan and has even visited the Antille and interviewed musicians, so 
not all the hour is pure music. Unfortunately, the stream is not stereo which 
would give it added value over SW; I wonder if the original show is produced in 
stereo. Reception is so good that I can perceive numerous edits during the talk 
portion, altho not as obvious as on World of Radio. 

We certainly welcome this addition to the schedule, altho if any music is 
hardly lacking on SW already, it`s Cuban --- the only saving grace of Radio 
Habana (and Radios Rebelde, Progreso to a much lesser extent). Too bad he 
didn`t pick some other Latin American country to feature. He, who? We only 
found his name by hunting thru old Facebook posts, Bill Tilford. He mixes in 
comments in Spanish with a pronounced Yanqui accent from Chicago. This replaces 
`Rabbi Yaakov Spivak` on WBCQ, and Larry Will says another new music show will 
occupy Rabbi`s other 01-02 hours on UT Wed, Thu, Fri; until then, filled by 
`Allan Weiner Worldwide` repeats (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. KRZA Streaming is now back up! Thank you all for your patience 
through our streaming transition to a new company. As some of you may know we 
had to switch from Live365.com to SurferNetwork.com due to the closing of 
Live365. You can stream the same way you always have by clicking on the "Listen 
Live" link on the home page of our website. Have a great day and enjoy KRZA via 
the web and mobile devices! (Gerald Rodriguez, General Manager, KRZA 88.7

Good, have been listening to their 3-hour world-music show Feb 4 at 16-19 UT. 
Janet Woodman says she is only on the first Thursday of the month (Glenn 
Hauser, Feb 4, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Feb 3 from 1417 tune-in, R. Sana`a mostly music, past 
1500 still at S9+10; 1502.4 changes music, but no call to prayer or 
announcement past 1506.

11860, Feb 4 at 1309 check, R. Sana`a is already at good S9+10 level with 
Arabic talk. Previously it would not fade up to this level for another 
semihour. I`m mainly monitoring Bougainville during rest of this hour. At 1409, 
11860 is S9+20 still M&W talk in Arabic about Yemen. 1421 audio stops during a 
non-Qur`an spoken recitation, and dead air continues until cuts back on with 
music at 1431.5; S9+20 here sounds much louder than the S9+20 metering on 6020. 
At 1501, 11860 switches from music to talk, still going at 1510 with no break 
for a call-to-prayer, which now seems quite hit-and-miss, optional (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1500, Feb 4 at 0525 UT, again hearing some weak blues music with 
KSTP nulled as much as possible. At hourtop, 0558-0600+ UT don`t hear any 
announcement, just music. Replying to my previous log is Wally Leisering: 

``Have you ruled out KCLF 1500, New Roads, LA? I have not heard them in GA so 
far.
http://kclf1500am.com/coverage.html

I love this line from their web page. "While some stations would be satisfied 
with this coverage, we at KCLF 1500 AM have plans to increase the station?s 
broadcasting power and find ways to expand the station?s coverage area!" (Wally 
Leisering, Decatur, GA, Sent from Windows Mail, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``

Wally, tnx for the tip. I bet that`s it, but it would be nice if they legal-ID 
once in a while. Logo says ``The Voice of Pointe Coup?e Parish``, and: ``The 
Best in Gospel, Blues and Zydeco`` 

``American Blues Network --- Showcasing best Blues talent, The American Blues 
Network is the oldest blues show playing down home contemporary and traditional 
blues! On air: Monday - Friday 9:00am - 3:00pm & 6:00pm ? 6:00am``

General direxion and blues all night certainly fit; I haven`t heard any Zydeco 
yet. NRC AM Log had it as UC/AC, ``K-15``, 1000 D1, but a CP for U1 850/18. 
They`ve obviously been on at night, maybe more than 18 watts. So they went to 
the trouble to get a U1 license by ``reducing`` power at night. Sudden 
appearance may be explained by the CP going into effect, or just letting the 1 
kW daytime stay on, like so many stations cheat. FCC AM Query still has the U1 
info as CP, but it takes them a while to catch up when a CP is activated. CoL 
is New Roads LA, which is barely on the south/west bank of the Mississippi, but 
is the site, justifying a K-call? Also the U1 CP site has slightly different 
co?rdinates than the original D1 site (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1811, DX
