VIETNAM Voice of Vietnam Son Tay site intermodulation on odd 11913.43 kHz
I've seen this for a few days on many KIWI sdrs. Seems in parallel with
VoV on 11885 kHz. With strongest signal on Uni Enschede Twente SDR but it
is audible all over Europe but barely audible in all-Asia/Pacific region.
Presumed to be a spur from Son Tay, Hanoi transmitter.
As I write this I see it also on odd frq 11856.52 kHz.

Re: Voice of Vietnam Son Tay intermodulation on 11913.43 kHz.
That's not new spurious matter
of o n e of the 6 x SW transmitters in Son Tay bcasting center.
Happened few times in past decade also.
VIETNAM 11885 kHz Some bad accompanied audio strings happened again on
the VoVTN outlet from Son Tay, French service at 19.00-19.56 UT. Happened
some ? 5 years ago in 31 mb of Son Tay TX outlet. Today April 2025 heard
VTN Son Tay on exact 9730 kHz underneath CRI Portuguese on CO-CHANNEL bad
fqy coordination.
11885 kHz Son Tay suffered by bad sideband strings heard and seen 7, and
9 and 17.5 kHz apart away distance on both sidebands too. 11903 kHz
approx. too. on even 11895 kHz CRI Kashi in Cantonese language also cover-
ed.

and in May 2021 too:

Side broadcasts from 9730 kHz Hanoi Son Tay.
Dear editors of the German broadcasts,
I wanted to let you know that your station on the frequency 9730 kHz also
has side emissions on 9704 and 9754 kHz that can be heard in Europe.
The main frequency is currently (1850 UTC) 35433.
Best regards, Dr. Hansjoerg Biener-D, May 12, 2021.
Re: Side emissions from 9730 kHz Hanoi Son Tay bcast center.
Hj. These are the old Made in USSR transmitters, around 30 years old, in
the Son Tay transmission center west of Hanoi.
One of the six transmitters has a control fault and produces audio track
strings, always 8 kHz apart, like a garden fence - visible on the software
screen, e.g. in the Perseus RX screen.
This has been happening on and off for at least a decade, recently more
often in the 41 mb around 7280 kHz, but mostly in the 31 meter band, when
the 5th / 6th - faulty - transmitter is in use.
Tonight, 9730 kHz is actually covered by a 500kW system, by CRI Portuguese
music program from the center of Kashi-Kashgar, powerhouse S=9+50dB or
-21dbm, a really crazy strong signal from Kashgar Tibet, on the Kyrgyz
Republic border.
The German-now English-program from Hanoi Son Tay is best heard today on
9706 and 9754 kHz, from 16:00 to 22:00 UT; otherwise the garden fence on
both sides, shows exact transmitter strings at the
9738, 9746, 9754, and 9762 kHz frequencies upperside, and
9690, 9698, 9706, 9714, and 9722 kHz frequencies lowerside.

I'm currently listening to the Voice of Vietnam on 11913.45 kHz. (1900UTC)
The program is in English
The signal is rather weak in France, but perfectly understandable.

OK, WOR)
** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 13650, June 10 at 1342, two weak stations
mixing S4/S6, one in Chinese talk, vs music or sometimes both music.
EiBi shows both VOK in Mandarin to SE Asia, and CRI in Mandarin via
Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, to central Asia: so, Commies vs Commies!
Chinese vs Chinese! Way to go!! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 21565, June 10 at 1337, JBA carrier is the OSOB. EiBi

Breanna was a no-show. But soon we do hear her mixing with WPFY721.
And she starts the rollcall. I don`t try to copy all the details, but
many of the usual ones. Apparently finished at 1408 after a rather
confusing situation (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

2159 it`s on, S9/+10, yet insufficient (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Major sporadic E FM DX opening June 10, already
underway when I start at 1615 UT with NC; in several long hot sessions
I was not able to monitor continuously, all the way until 0143 UT June
11! It will take quite a while to get this all researched and
compiled, so for now just the basix: also at least from VA, MD, PA,
NY, OH, MI; French on 95.1, probably North Bay ON rather than Montr?al
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
