However, since 2023 we are broadcasting our shortwave transmissions directly through ORS (?sterreichische Rundfunksender GmbH & Co. KG) in trustful relationship. The ORS transmitters and antennas are located in the village of Moosbrunn near Vienna and broadcast our transmissions on the first Sunday of every month at 12 o?clock German time with 100 kW transmitter power on 7330 kHz on the 41-m-Band of shortwave towards Western Europe!

Don't miss it! Frequencies will be 6185 kHz & 7700//5800 (or 5790) kHz. Last year we experienced some difficulties with a suitable 5.8 MHz frequency, so it?s hard to give you the exact frequency. But it will be close to (or on) 5800 kHz. 73s, the FRS Team (Jan, Bert, Mike, Dave, Brian & Peter) ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Fri, 4 Aug 2023 17:09:39 +0200 From: <df...@darc.de> To: "HCDX" <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com>, "_ WOR" <w...@groups.io>, "_ BCLNEWS" <bdxc-n...@groups.io> Subject: [HCDX] Logs of Friday August 4th at 00.45 til 01.15 UT Message-ID: <80ABAED6C04A427AB685AB161DA2C185@PC3> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original Some logs of Friday August 4th at 00.45 til 01.15 UT taken at remotedly Perseus net at southern Germany, Europe 3995.002 D__ HCJB Germany Weenermoor, religious chorus program at 00.52UT at S=9+10dB local weEUR level, and \\ same program on 5919.996 kHz at same strength. 4010.009 KGZ Birinchi Radio Krasnaya Rechka Bishkek from Kyrgyztelekom S=7 at 00.56 UT on Aug 4. 5024.995 CUB RadioCuba of Radio Rebelde program in Spanish, not much S=6 strong here in WeEUR at 01.00 UT, and co-channel accompanied by 5025.005 PRU R Quillabamba - likely - transmission exact measured. 5050even USA WRMI Okeechobee FL state only S=6 signal too, at 01.03 UT.

Richard LaCroix, ODXA, replies to my obs that Trenton Military has been missing from VOLMET on 6754 USB and 15034 USB, but there is another 2-way frequency: ``Glenn, 11232 is in fact busy. This is the Canadian Forces Military Aeronautical Communications System (MACS). Further information can be found here: Military Aeronautical Communications System (MACS) Trenton http://www.milspec.ca/canforce/facilities/macs/macs-trenton.html You can find my MACS logs at the following URL: Trenton Military General Log https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,114462.0.html As for the VOLMET station, still to be determined. I contacted a work colleague back on June 1st with regards to the clock being wrong (in EDT vice ZULU time zone) with no response. Nature of the military, the member may have been posted out, on leave or retired`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 21490, Aug 4 at 2319, Chinese S1/S4, i.e. CNR1 jammer vs Sound of Hope. Would be OSOB if it were not for another much weaker one on 21800, so it`s the SSOB. Nothing else on 13m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, August 4 at 0633, mushy mess here, presumably RHC, rather than extension on 11670 or 11760 as often happens. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Checking on the DX-398 with clipon, since main rx R75 had been off and now requires about 23 minutes to warm up for normal modulation output (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT [and non]. 9439.995, August 4 at *2115, R. Cairo cuts on, S9+35/45 into UTwente, undermodulated but what English? remains is extremely distorted. Not paying much attn but at 2130 notice it`s off the air: good! But *2132 back on the air. 2135* off again, back and forth, then mostly off. Something`s always egregious in Egypt. Meanwhile this Friday hour, I`m mainly listening to `Behavior Night` on WBCQ webcast with incomparably higher fi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** INDONESIA [non]. 7290, August 4 at 1025, JBA carrier, presumably CNR1 which starts at 1000. When I happened to upwake, first checking for RRI Nabire, which I never hear earlier before bedtime on its limited sked, but now it`s too late. Would you believe that Aoki has no entry for it at all, despite Ron Howard`s very frequent logs of it?? EiBi shows two irr. spans, 0600-0940 & 0940-1100, but Ron never reports it before 0800. Best chance would be during 09-10 hour when even a JBA carrier could be confirmed by its always-minus offset. Ron`s latest log: ``7289.93, RRI Nabire Pro 1, 0825 till cut off at 0915* UT, July 28. The usual EZL music/songs/announcers/Islamic Shalawat Tarhim prayer/Maghrib (sunset) call-to-prayer. A good day here with decent reception.`` Dene Lynneberg in NZ DX Times had it 26 July at 0804-1000 via South Australia remote on 7289.95. HFCC A23 is even more misleading, showing 7290, 1 kW ND from NAB at 05-08 & 23-02, in ENGLISH! The only others remaining, 3325 & 4750 are also in ``Eng``. For years HFCC kept listing defunct RRI regional tropicals as in English: at least those have been outweeded (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, August 4 at 0631, RNZP is back here as expected after testing 24 hours ago on 9655 instead (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6200, Aug 4 at 0639, JBA carrier into DX-398, presumably pirate in SW USA, R. Vostochnaya Zvezda. So far I have had nothing better from it here ex-7400, but Ron Howard reported, as partially quoted on WORLD OF RADIO 2202: ``NORTH AMERICA. 6200 AM, Russian ethnic pirate Radio Channel Eastern Star/Radio Vostochnaya Zvezda, 0846-0935 UT, Aug 3; clear boost in power; mostly Russian ballads, with announcers in Russian and English ("Next song is . . . Thank you"); I check here regularly and had not detected any signal recently. Nice to have stronger signal, but unfortunately today I also noticed extremely strong summertime QRN (static). In fact the worst I have heard all this year, but the signal was cutting through the static fairly well, per attached brief audio. Thanks very much for the quick (1915 UT Aug 3) reply to my report: "Thank you so much for listening! Yes looks like a strong signal. I can't wait to see what it will be like in the winter. I have made a small adjustment and the power output will be even higher tonight. Running class E, about 70 watts carrier can go up to 100 watts carrier 400 PEP but the modulator cannot handle it. It is already hot hot, however the output final is only warm to the touch. I added cooling to it and it is doing very well. The new board from China I designed on JLCPCB has come as you can tell, hence the stronger signal :) Everything is going hand in hand with my math now. It looks like there is only some little error due to changes in temperature and so on, that is perfect for this purpose though. I am running more power than I have ever before on shortwave. Even when I had the Ameritron. Keep your eyes peeled, I might be doing some SSTV soon. That will be when I have a very strong signal. I will be adding a handful of new songs soon too. Also that name change is still coming up. Best regards and good luck dxing!"`` via Ron Howard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.4 AM, Aug 4 at 2324, steady S9 open carrier from some local CBer on what should be a busy calling channel. Also a day or two ago; could be keyed down 24/7. Why not relay a local FM station as before? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** PERU [and non]. 4775, August 4 at 1027, JBA music vs CODAR. Since turning it on at 0630 just before bedtime I let the R75 run until I happen to awaken, for a quick bandscan. This must have been R. Tarma, which I don`t hear during my usual listening spans. By this time, also carrier on 4940 presumably Colombizuela, but 4885 Brasil already outfaded (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Aug 4 at 2200, token English from SNR is still in summer mode, i.e. nothing is happening in Spain, so no news and no one present, just playing back canned stuff, this time a Feb interview about some play I`m sure I have never seen and never shall. At least the other three frequencies are also running, in quick check via Maryland SDR. Since there are at least 3? people in the English department now, why don`t they take turns going on vacation so normal current programming can continue? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.006, Aug 4, VOT cuts on a few sex after 2200 with dead air, off* a minute later. Fails to stay on with English. Would have been good signal via UTwente. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2202 monitoring: 9955, Friday August 4 at 1430, after ID, WRMI plays RAE Argentina To The World multi-lingual ID reel four or five times, finally 1433 starts RAE in French; strange accent so I do not recognize language at first. Unclear why a few weeks ago this suddenly replaced what had been the earliest weekly WORLD OF RADIO airing, which still appears on WRMI websked along with another imaginary one on 9955, Saturday at 1930. And on the contrary I see WOR is no longer shown Sunday at 1330 on 9955, so does that mean it *is* on? Confirmed Friday August 4 at 2049 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz Villa Estense, and still no // on 918 or 207 kHz; S9+10 into nearby Noale SDR with lite CCI but considerable storm crashing around Italy and Slovenia. ``Sign off`` at 2059, then stays on with FSNews as usual.

Still dead at 2310 recheck. Surely is $tereo when musicking? Another station where nohuman is paying any attention to its own output. Speaking of Kiowa, whatever became of Dr Scott Becker, onetime partner of Allan Weiner at WBCQ? Several years ago he became a nonentity, not even mentioned now anywhere on website. He did own a restaurant in Kiowa, and he had a ham call which no longer exists, KB5MDH: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/license.jsp?licKey=366478 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** URUGUAY. 21250 USB, Aug 4 at 2320, CX4RT trying to contact some N2s in New York, but can`t copy their calls; QRZ?
