Tirana IS is S7, and modulated well enough, but voice mod at 0230 sign-on is lower, yet can confirm that all the numbers are correctly stated; into the news it`s just too much of a strain to copy. The problem is modulation, not interference. The neighbor on 7460 is S5 and on 7470 S4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 2748.99-USB, Feb 27 at 0146 UT, almost-human pleasant YL voice is referencing Environment Canada with marine weather, but as usual it`s tough to catch any location references, so assume it is the one scheduled to have started at 0140: VCS Halifax via Chebogue site. 2598-USB, Feb 27 at 0147 UT, can tell there is another Canadian Coast Guard transmission, but too weak under some utehash. Scheduled now is: VOK Labrador via Cartwright and/or Hopedale from 0137 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT. 9965.25, Feb 27 at 0134 check, no signal at all from ERTU, but it`s on and measured here at 0224, whine and Mideast music averaging S7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GREECE. 9420, Feb 27 at 0133, ERT with Greek music is VG at S9+35, so what`s happening on its whiny sibling? 9935 is only S9 to S6, program modulation barely audible underneath (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA. 4055, Feb 27 at 0220 UT, R. Verdad with a familiar voice giving DX news about Voz de Indonesia, spelling out non-Castilian e-mails and URLs with ``uves`` --- Pedro Sedano of AER who contributes to several DX programs including this one, ``gracias, Dino``, ergo Frecuencia al D?a as IDed at 0223 after some James Bond music and on to another correspondent. FAD does appear on FAD`s own schedule for 0200 UT Saturdays on 4055, but does not appear on R. Verdad`s own schedule, still incomplete and out of date (nor the other DX program 24 hours later, UT Sundays at 02, Antena DX ? but maybe not this week; read on). Good S9+ signal, attributable to normal propagation, not a mysterious ``injexion`` directly into my Oklahoma radio. BTW, I see on the Radio Verdad al Dia page, http://www.radioverdad.org/node/157 ``Estamos en el aire con la Estaci?n Educativa Evang?lica "Radio Verdad" con 1,100 watts, debido a una imperfecci?n de funcionamiento. A mediados de febrero 2016, volveremos a transmitir con 800 watts`` Boosting power by 37.5% could explain why it`s been heard better than usual, but why is that an ``imperfection``?? Really back to 800 watts by now? I thought it was 700, at least as per WRTH. Dr Madrid has asked the ``Shortwave Alliance`` to be operational with those ``high power relays`` also on 4055, if at all possible during Radio Verdad`s sixteenth anniversary celebration Saturday Feb 27 from 2300 until about 0400 UT Sunday February 28. We can at least hear it direct, or via webcast. I first discovered R. Verdad in March of 2000. Here is the initial report: http://www.angelfire.com/ok/worldofradio/dxld0040.txt There were followups in the next several issues to 0049 and beyond (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6955.00-USB, Feb 27 at 0122, bluesy song at S9, 0123 ``Accelerate`` (not XLR-8) ID and some classic rock. Only pirate noted active this Friday evening, unless that was another one, the JBA carrier on 6770 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1640, Feb 27 before 0200 UT, KZLS Enid-Hennessey-OKC nominal with some talkshow, but at 0216 UT retuneby, now in open carrier/dead air. With just a little manipulation of bandwidth and passband on the NRD-545, via the E-W ALA330S antenna, I have perfect copy of WTNI Biloxi MS (which is always audible as understation to KZLS at night), during a silly baseball game --- yes, baseball, for sure, on a Friday night in February. The Golden Eagles are a team, mentions having lost to New Orleans, Pensacola. Also refers to the Northwestern State Angels (?). We continue to suspect WTNI is running more than 1 kW night power most or all of the time. 1640, Feb 27 at 0216, mixing with WTNI thru KZLS dead carrier, an English station plugging Jesus, presumably WSJP, EWTN in Sussex WI (one other religionist on 1640 is KDIA Vallejo CA, twice as far but 10/10 kW U2 rather than most X-banders, 10/1 kW U1; but KDIA night pattern nulls to the east, throwing most to the south and west) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PERU [and non]. 5980, Feb 27 at 0056, a single JBA carrier, i.e. R. Chaski, joined by a second carrier at *0058:28, i.e. BBC Hindi via UAE, now making a warbling double-het against the BFO offtuned to 5979.65 or so. I`m setting up to catch the Chaski cutoff which should happen at approximately 0107:49, projecting from last timing 8 nights ago at 0106:58, which was averaging 6.4 seconds later per night since the previous capture ---- unfortunately, I am paying too much attention to what Allan Weiner is saying on the other radio, and don`t turn up 5980 until about a minute too later, when the single JBA carrier left is BBC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 1521.0, Feb 27 at 0154, presumed 2-megawatt BSKSA Duba is putting a bigger het than usual upon 1520 KOKC. So I try to pull out some audio by minimum bandwidth, USB and passband tuning on the NRD-545. And I do hear bits of talk and music which aren`t bleeding out of 1520, past 0159 but nothing identifiable. Its presence is mainly evident by the het against KOKC. Still so at 0215 after I have checked rest of the MW band: see UNIDENTIFIED 621 and 711 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SRI LANKA. 9765.00, Feb 27 at 0136, S9+5 open carrier/dead air. HFCC shows IBB Iranawila at 01-04 since Dec 28 in Pashto. I.e. VOA Deewa Radio, which I logged with modulation on Feb 6. However the Iranawila site had power outage at least from Feb 21 to 24 requiring substitute transmissions from other sites on other frequencies; looks like they still have some problems. Recheck at 0224, 9765 is now down to an S2 JBA carrier, so can`t tell if it`s modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7425, Feb 27 at 0225, NO signal from Greenville leapfrog of 7305 Vatican relay over another pro-Catholic station, both violating Separation of Church and State, 7365 Mart?, another 60 kHz higher. It ought to be audible as usual since the fundamentals are S9+20 and S9+30. IBB may have finally suppressed the intermodulation; or there has been some change to a different transmitter and/or antenna for at least one of them, so they no longer happen to interact (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also SRI LANKA ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1814 monitoring: confirmed Friday Feb 26 at 2130.5 on WRMI 13695, very good and much stronger than 15770 which got its usual 30-second headstart on separate playout; as to be expected here, aimed NW and NE respectively. Also confirmed UT Sat Feb 27 from 0029:52 on WBCQ 9329.94-CUSB on the R75, S9+10 after WBCQ-The Planet IS and IDs. Recheck at 0055 on the NRD-545, 9329.87-CUSB at S9+30.

Mentions time 0054 Zulu, into digimode. WBCQ is not on 5109.7 yet, but this surely explains why the army thru FCC has ordered WBCQ to move to 5130! I had also logged this 5112 net Feb 20 at 0037 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 3250, Feb 27 at 0053, no signal from the new WBCQ frequency as was testing one week ago. The reason why is explained below. 7489.90-AM, UT Sat Feb 27 at 0055, rock music, presumably `Fred Flintstone` show modulating on WBCQ; 0100 after some unknown music, William Tell Overture starts a bit late to introduce `Allan Weiner Worldwide`; he starts by noting how everything happens on Friday, like the FCC phoning him at 5 pm that WBCQ will have to move off ``5110`` to 5130, on request of the US Army, which apparently needs a nearby frequency for tactical HF communications [or rather, MARS, as in my logs Feb 20 and 27, on 5112-USB, q.v.]. Allan says ``5110`` (5109.7-CUSB) will continue for the rest of this weekend, but by next week will shift to ``5130`` (meaning 5129.7?). He`s glad to change, since there`s ``data slush`` around 5100, to get further away from it. As for 3250, on 7489.90-AM and repeated 28 seconds later on 5109.70-CUSB, Allan explains that on the test last week, that transmitter ``fireballed``, but didn`t really burn up, and fixing it will probably have to wait until he gets back up there to Maine after wintering in Florida --- why can`t anyone else fix things? At 0111, girlfriend Pam joins him, ``getting out from under the table``, and once miked, proceeds to sing, accompanying herself on ukulele, a neat original song about Allan himself, ``Born in Yonkers in New York State . . . Allan Weiner, King of the Planet Radio`` (you can guess the tune). At 0124 she sings another song dedicated to the Florida chief executor = governor and legislature, who keep killing people in the name of citizens, i.e. absolutely against the death penalty being applied by anything but God. Allan doesn`t seem to agree with her that the DP should be totally abolished, and goes on to denigrate National Public Radio which she admits listening to. 5109.7-CUSB, Feb 27 at 0232, unknown music, 0234 a heavily edited bit of NPR credits, which I`ve heard before, I think as an Area 51 filler, and more music. Nothing is on the website schedule after 0200 UT Sat, and before that it shows the expired RFD (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 3215, UT Sat Feb 27 at 0105, quick check of WWRB finds Dave exclaiming ``they`re full of crap``, so back to AWWW on WBCQ. Before 0200, however, WWRB has another program than a Dave rant (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 621.00, Feb 27 at 0210 UT, TA carrier hetting against 620 TX station. 711.00, Feb 27 at 0209 UT, another TA carrier against Amarillo/Kansas City/Cuba. After the Saudi on 1521, I`ve tuned thru the entire MW band at 1 kHz steps with BFO, but these are the only carriers detected, tnx to being 1 kHz away from domestic bigsigs. 621 could be the 1000 kW Egyptian, or closest 100 kW Canarian; 711 the 300 kW Moroccan, 200 kW Yemeni, 400 kW Iranian --- but there`s also a JBA carrier on 715.0, surely no real station, but a birdie?

(Art Delibert, Maryland, 2/27/16) Overall, conditions from Oceania were good this morning. ABC noted around 1125 on 2325 (best), 2485 (worst) and 4835 (good, but lots of splatter from 4840). RRI Merauke on 3905 with a pretty good signal from 1145 onward, but at TOH covered by a ham operator (using upper sideband, very unconventional for the 80M band); fading to unreadable around 1220.

Would that Radio Tirana could achieve such a signal for its own Shijak broadcasts on 7465 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA. 12085 & 12065 & 9580, Feb 27 at 1340, RA is managing to modulate today (did heads roll over dead air all night last night?), during discussion of ``paramedic suicide``, a specialty I would rather overlook (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL. 4915.00, Feb 27 at 2350, S9 open carrier/dead air, in fact the SSOB below 5000; Feb 28 at 0037, now much weaker S6 but modulating music, soon covered up by the S9+5 carrier resuming; 0101 recheck it`s S7 so the weaker station again, with music and 0103 full ID but I can`t copy name. They do mention 4915 onda tropical, and frequencies on the 49 and 25 m bands. Therefore it`s R. Daqui, Goi?nia, which is inactive on 6080 and 11830, and the coverstation was R. Dif. Macap? which has no such companions (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL. 6040.39 approx., Feb 27 at 2357, RB2 in Brazuguese mentioning phone number, and R?dio Aparecida which it relays most or all of the time. It`s about to get blasted off by The Mighty KBC, but not until that cuts 6040.0 on late, circa *0004 Feb 28; see NETHERLANDS [non]. While RB2 was still clear, 4+1 timesignal with pips spaced two seconds apart ending late at 0050:38 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL [and non]. 9645.4, Feb 28 at 0049, Brazuguese sounds like sports, S4; no doubt the reactivated R?dio Bandeirantes, but an ID from which I have yet to rehear. Has het from 9645.0 at S6 which would be CNR1 ChiCom jamming and/or IBB Tibetan via Thailand during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** COLOMBIA. 5910.30, Feb 27 at 2353, Spanish talk, must be Alcarav?n Radio, further off frequency than usual 5910.05 or so. I don`t try to unravel the hets around the other HJDH, 6010 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT. 9965.20, Feb 28 at 0056, R. Cairo is on with S9 whine, otherwise open carrier/dead air; in the minute I am listening, it drifts down to 9965.15 by 0057 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GREECE. 9420 & 9935, Feb 28 at 0053, ERA is off tonight, UT Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA. 4055, Feb 27 at 2200, TGAV Radio Verdad was going to start celebrating its sixteenth anniversary. First I try the webcast at 2315-2325: nothing but hymns in Spanish from scratchy records. The flash player keeps breaking it up. Then I`m checking direct on 4055, no sign of anything more like magical signal injexions: 2348 Feb 27, hymns at S7, ``Bless?d Lord Jesus``; 0019 Feb 28, another hymn; 0042 now talk in Spanish about how to convey the evangelio; 0106 closing program `Descubriendo las Escrituras`` with plug for websites http://cristo.org and radiovozdegracia.com Seems to be normal regular programming, nothing heard about the anniversary (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** IRAN. 9445.6, Feb 28 at 0045, S7 signal is JBM, no doubt VIRI in Spanish, as previously logged Feb 19 at 0125, nominal 9445.0 from Kamalabad. Is it off-frequency every night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ITALY [non]. 6970-USB, Feb 27 at 2338, no trace of a signal here from IBC, Italian Broadcasting Corp., pirate which said it would test to North America at 2200 until 0200 Feb 28; nor at periodic chex the next sesquihour. Various other stuff around the frequency, however: 6968.5-LSB, Feb 27 at 2338, 2-way, maybe in Spanish 6970.5-USB, Feb 27 at 0007, 2-way, language unknown 6970, Feb 27 at 0105, still nothing. Was it on and reaching those further east? Yes, poorly, 3 logs from CT, PA and VA: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,26625.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NETHERLANDS [non]. 6040, UT Sunday Feb 28 at 0000, no signal from The Mighty KBC via Nauen, GERMANY --- As I continue listening to BRAZIL [q.v.], RB2 on 6040.39 approx., I am beginning to wonder if MBR has abruptly changed the KBC frequency again? No, it cuts on late circa *0004 with music at S9+25. Het from ZY remains audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6945-AM, Feb 27 at 2342, S7 vs noise level, continuous talk, sounds like it could be a commercial station so check my three MW locals to be sure not //: 960, 1390, 1640. (1390 can put a x5 harmonic on 6950, but not close enough). Nor does it fit for a WWCR/WNQM parasite. Still there after 0000 Feb 28. It was also UNIDENTIFIED for three loggers in this thread: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,26633.0.html Nigel Pimblett in Alberta said, ``An interview about radio at 0058, apparently Allan Weiner talking to a pirate operator. Poor to fair signal`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6954.98-USB, Feb 28 at 0007, tune in to All India Radio interval signal! So it is Partial India Radio? Is it WLIS = We Love Interval Signals? No, read on. At S9+5 level, IS after IS plays, apparently recorded off the air and many of them overmodulated/distorted here. Quite a trip down memory lane, as many of them no longer exist. I can ID most of them by tune or by announcement: All India Radio Minsk IS & ID Radio Can??o Nova ID Burasi Sofia Radyosu, i.e. Bulgaria with Turkish ID CRI East is Red theme; now it`s 0009.5: unfamiliar IS, but ID in Chinese for CJKT, Zhi Sheng, chimes unknown 8-note IS, alternating two different but related noteseries, announcement sounds like Greek language IS `Forward, Left!` and Radio Prague, Czechoslovakia ID Radio Denmark Shortwave Department, IS and opening first of three broadcasts to North America, on 15165 Sakura on marimba, NHK. By now it`s 0014: unfamiliar horn fanfare, ID? IS, Suomen Yleisradio, Radio Finland IDs Horns and drumming, ID in French; I thought at first it was ORTF Tahiti, or was it something from Africa, Abidjan? [next: can`t read my scribble ? Cairo, maybe?] Yankee Doodle, VOA Rhodes signing off Voice of Islamic Republic of Iran, IS, ID, NA we still hear 0017 change to a song about fever; some dead air 0021 still tuned to 6955, hear a slow CW ID twice: PIWI --- But is it still the Interval Signal station? Amazingly, no one on HFU reported the above, but there were several reports of Peewee Radio on 6955 after 0128 with non-IS programming: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,26637.0.html O, depending on the exact spacing, maybe they were sending PEEWEE instead of PIWI as I copied it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Feb 28 at 0109, jazz/blues song at S9+25. 0111 slightly risqu? song, ``King Size Papa``; at 0124 I`m hearing it well on the PL-880 just with whiprod, for ID as expected: ``Wolverine Radio`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6925.11-AM, Feb 27 at 2345, S8 weak pirate with some talk and music. It was IDed an hour later as Liquid Radio: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,26634.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 1020, Feb 27 at 1324 UT, KOKP Perry sports talk is undermodulated and hummy, so how is sibling station 1580, KOKB Blackwell? Also undermod but not hummy. Did not check 105.1 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 7325-, Feb 27 at 1358, JBA S5 carrier with trace of music, slightly on lo side, just after CRI has gone off, so presumed Wantok Radio Light (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PERU [and non]. 5980, Feb 28 at *0058:26, BBC carrier via UAE cuts on to accompany R. Chaski carrier already on at slightly different frequency producing warbling double-het against BFO offtuned to lo side. Unlike last night, this time I make sure to be attentive leading up to the expected Chaski cutoff time, which turns out to be: 0107:57.5*, or slipping 6.6 seconds later per 24 hours since last timing of 0106:58*, nine nights ago; leaving the single BBC carrier on 5980 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PERU. 6173.9, Feb 28 at 0031, JBA carrier, presumed R. Tawantinsuyo back on its original off-frequency, after a few weeks on the top side of 6174 as reported by Pedro F. Arrun?tegui in Lima: ``13/01 nueva frecuencia 6174.038 (antes 6173.85) ya no hay el zumbido anterior, m?s limpio`` and he still had it on 6174.04 on January 21 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ROMANIA. 9730, UT Sunday Feb 28 at 0052, RRI with Romanian language lesson for Spanish-speakers; I learned a little, but only a few minutes before closing by Irina (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020.0, Feb 27 at 1344, S8 signal with bit of music, managing to squeeze thru not too long after sunrise, but late enough for its plus/minus 5 Cuban/American neighbors to have weakened to aproblematic level. So assume SIBC is on at the moment. Ron Howard has been tracking this closely. He says they have been testing with Wantok FM relay or open carrier alternating this with the other frequency 9545. 5020 was on between 1343 and 1351* Feb 27. He also had the open carrier on 9545 yesterday Feb 26 at 1204, six minutes after my report at 1158 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SOMALILAND. 7120, Feb 27 at 1353, S7 carrier, presumed R. Hargeysa longpath, just before its hour off at 14-15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TIBET [non]. 11997, Feb 27 at 1338, S5 carrier with flutter. Smax of Voice of Tibet via TAJIKISTAN. Yup, Feb 22 edition of DX Re Mix News latest update of these constantly changing schedules shows 11997 at 1315-1330, ex 12008, and 1330-1345, ex-12013, both 95 degrees from Dushanbe in Chinese (when in Tibetan language these are at 131 degrees). Also something on 11995 but not sure it was a jammer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 5960.02, Feb 27 at 2355, VOT IS is still playing after English to North America, S9+20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 2097.3-CW, Feb 28 at 0117 UT, 15-watt beacon A at Quartzsite AZ is JBA, and this time I make the frequency more precisely by matching the pitch with USB tuned to 2097.0 and LSB tuned to 2097.6, during its very brief bursts a dekasecond apart, which you can easily miss in bandscanning unless tuning very slowly (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1814 monitoring: confirmed Sat Feb 27 at 2330 on WBCQ 9329.90-CUSB, good at S9+10. I check WA0RCR 1860-AM Feb 28 at 0114, and find 160m is clogged by another contest, including W8PR, Ohio, on 1863-LSB, working VE3YXO with some difficulty, unheard here. So I figure there will also be QRM to WORLD OF RADIO later. It starts about 0417 UT Sunday Feb 28, and at 0424 I do find SSB QRM on both sides, which even 2.3 kHz bandwidth has trouble avoiding. At least there is no one right on top of us. Next: Mon 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW Mon 0400v WBCQ 5110v-CUSB Area 51 to WSW Mon 0430.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE Tue 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW Tue 1200 WRMI 9955 to SSE Wed 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW Wed 1415.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE Wed 2200 WBCQ 7490v to WSW Thu 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 1499.5 & 1500.5, Feb 28 at 0026, still hearing the wobbling tones on both sides equidistant from 1500 KSTP. Just measured them on the NRD-545, but not another attempt to DF them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 9674.5-USB, Feb 28 at 0050, INTRUDERS, 2-way in colloquial Spanish interjecting putas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 0509 UT February 28 End of Hard-Core-DX Digest, Vol 158, Issue 28 *********************************************
