Yes, 2058 Tirana theme and 2059 its IS before cut to JIP TOMBS at 2100. It appears that over two weeks since the stupid clock change in Europe, automated recording of RT for this and the German relay have not been reset an hour earlier, instead keeps picking up music fill on that stream at the former UT feed time. I`ve had to point this out season after season, but am not responsible, nor is anyone else, not even Radio Tirana itself which pretends it`s not on SW at all! But WRMI has inserted a new time for RT even if it`s defective: 2230 UT on 7780, as noted by Richard Langley on April 12. This now shows on the transmission schedule, as System H, but not below on System H or any other program schedule at http://www.tinyurl.com/WRMIfqs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. Missed SW repeats of April 12 `En Contacto`, but audio here: https://cdn.teveo.cu/media/5W/Sn/EUZJjbRZny4c/artifact/R7WGgRVSHpVUkwQq.mp3 Hostess intro as Maya Quiroga. Pedro did not blow the 1300 in WWCR`s address (any number would do, as there is nothing else on ``WWCR Avenue``, but chosen to match their WNQM MW frequency; why not 15825 WWCR Ave.?); he said ``trethe-thero-thero``. Altho he pronounced it Nashville, he spelt the city starting clearly with an H. Altho he`s in Spain, Russian-influenced Cuban commies could easily confuse H with N. Never mind the Greex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15370, April 13 at 1950, RHC in English, good audio on unscheduled frequency; has it been on since 1900 at least? // only regular frequency 15140 which is as usual distorted. The same continued after 2000 in French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 11670, April 12 at 2338, RHC Spanish, S9+20 but undermodulated with big hum: wiggle that patchcord! // much better 11760 which is S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC. No clash with REE, which per Eibi is now running no later than 2300* and RHC not until *2300 but it might be interesting to monitor at that time, as REE often runs its IS for several minutes after closing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR [and non]. 5010v, April 13 at 0315, LAH between two weak signals; one is surely RNM as always offset minus, and the other? Maybe WRMI on past nominal 0230* --- or a Cuban 5040/5025 leapfrog? Too late for India (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 9545, April 13 carrier until 0500:45*, no doubt SIBC about to QSY to 5020 which won`t be audible till latere (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 13 at 2227 check, VOT already on in music fill rather than signing on 30 minutes late as monitored April 10; perhaps they even started at 2200 today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2029 monitoring. Confirmed UT Monday April 13 at 0130 & 0230 on WRMI 7780, both fair-good via eastern remotes and both without any //, as it`s settled that 9395 & 5800 at 0130 have been overtaken by Radio Prague. WOR also confirmed on WRN webcast at 0130. Also confirmed from 0301 UT Monday April 13 on WBCQ 6159.93v but ripple carrier disturbing modulation: this transmitter again substituting like last night for 5130 during Area 51. Also confirmed UT Monday Apr 13 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, JBA here. Too bad VG 5800 cut off just in time as until 0330 had been // 9955 with RPI. Also confirmed Monday April 13, from 1802 JIP during initial Alaska item, on IRRS 7290. After 1800 ID, and FSN headlines, but drops to dead air except for some hum, before finishing first one, not resuming till WOR 2029 playout is already running. Still going at 1822 check, but 1829 DA again just before WOR finishes; and there may have been more breaks earlier. 7290 monitored via a substitute UTwente SDR explained at: http://websdr.ewi.utwente.nl:8901/ which is sufficient for this purpose: ``This WebSDR is a temporary replacement for the University of Twente WebSDR. It is a makeshift setup at PA3FWM's home, with unfortunately quite some local noise sources. The university receiver is currently unusable due to an antenna malfunction since April 8. Because of access restrictions due to the Covid-19 pandemic, it is unclear if and when it can be repaired. Hence this replacement`` Also confirmed UT Tuesday April 14 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair via UTwente. Next: 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Thanks this week for financial support from Doug Brown of London, Ontario and Seminole, Florida who sent a US$ cheque to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 6159.959v, Sun April 12 at 2325, WBCQ is on here again like last night instead of 5130 off for maintenance; music but undermodulated. See also WOR monitoring (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5850 & 7570 & 7730, April 12 at 2329, surprised to find WRMIs 11-12-13 all off the air. All had been BSing from 2300 as confirmed on the April 10 edition of EiBi; but WRMI websked is now updated as of April 11 showing no BS on these until 0000 (5850 Slovakia), except Fridays when 5850 starts another gospel huxter at 2230 and stays on with BS from 2300. Perhaps adding all those transmitters for TOMBS on Sabbathday morning entailed some reduxions elsewhere (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, April 13 at 0317, WRMI with R. Prague, sacred choral music on easter Sunday, maybe St Matthew Passion excerpt as not IDed before closing at 0328 and then applause; bit of other music but 0330 cut to dead air, and off by 0331*, just in time to avoid simulcasting 9955 for WOR as until now it has been //. 5800 is supposedly scheduled now with RAE in Spanish at 0230-0330*. See also MADAGASCAR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9350, April 13 at 2001, this WWCR has during a pause, cross-talk from something else, presumably bleeding out of another WWCR transmitter. It would have been clearly readable without self-QRM and volume upturned (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0107 UT April 14 ------------------------------ Message: 12 Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 05:27:25 +0000 From: Manuel M?ndez <manuelmend...@gmail.com> To: "DX WRO groups" <w...@groups.io> Subject: [HCDX] Radio Vanuatu on air 24 hours Message-ID: <em0d88d868-54d2-48c2-8b8b-6ef1b42e6f12@manuel1> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset=utf-8 Manuel M?ndez Lugo, Spain VANUATU, Radio Vanuatu, Port Vila, Checking this station last days (11th, 12th and 13th April) via remote receivers SDR Kiwi in New Zealand, I've observed 2485 kHz doesn't close at 1000, is still on air from 1000 to 1830 with non stop songs, they repeat each two or three songs the song "You Are the Only One", at 1830 close this frequency and open 3945 with non stop songs until 1845, at 1845 anthem and habitual program with comments, news and songs.
