Did not realize the C?rrik relay was doing English at this time, 05-07, 140 degrees; but I do commonly notice the Arabic relay at same time on 9515, 9590, 11775 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA. 11387-USB, April 11 at 1300, robo YL in Oz English with VOLMET; quite weak and could never catch a location, but an unholy mix of English and metric units, kilometres and feet and knots, depending on the item; ``out`` and off at 1304:20. Per http://www.dxinfocentre.com/volmet.htm#11.3 11387 VOLMET 00, 30 AXQ421 AUS Australian (Brisbane) to be followed at 05 by Calcutta, but nothing heard here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA. 15400, April 11 around 1245, HCJB, VG signal in S Asian language but mentions `Back to the Bible` and `George Lucas` in same sentence, mixed with S Asian songs, which are interrupted for talk bits. EiBi shows Hindi during this quarter-hour on Thursdays, i.a. In the clear now, but after 1300 colliding with Iran`s Urdu service, e.g. at 1327 check making fast SAH, while Iran is good and clear on / 15300. At 1410 rerecheck still a bad mix here on 15400. I`ve mentioned this a few times, and yet to see any comment about this situation from monitors in S Asia, where I think it must be a severe problem. 15340 also VG at same time, as a brief period when Kununurra is running two transmitters at once. EiBi shows daily at 1230-1300 this one is in RWG = Rawangi, with 60 kilospeakers each in Burma, and Arunachal Pradesh, India (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 6140, April 11 at 1145, RA is poor but clear here, a few sex behind stronger // 6150 which is colliding with CUBA. 6140 is in A-13 schedule at 11-13, 13 degrees from Kranji, SINGAPORE. 11945, April 11 at 1258, RA English audible here until abrupt 1259*, now poor signal as aimed toward Asia; this is Shepparton-C, an SW100A, which now retunes to 11665 for the Chinese sesquihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BANGLADESH. 15505, April 11 at 1359, propagation from this area is pitiful today, but I do make out a JBA timesignal about 9 seconds fast before 1400 as BB is starting Urdu. Typo in yesterday`s report: timesignal to 1359:48.5, not 1358:48.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake April 11, before and after 1200: 6110, good at 1147 atop: VOA Chinese via Thailand at 11-13 (and also on 6110 via Tinang at 13-15, per Aoki). No full bandscan at this time, but 6110 still FD at 1228. 7250, fair at 1228; unusual spot for FD and nothing in the lists to explain why; presumably something objexionable to the ChiCom showed up here. In fact, altho 7250 is a busy frequency elsewhen, nothing at all is scheduled at this hour per Aoki and EiBi, while HFCC shows a registration for Bangladesh starting at 1200, but surely unapplied Firedrake April 11 before 1300: 12370, very good at 1258 13820, good at 1256 mixing with R. Mart? carrier about to sign on 13970, poor at 1256 14800, very good at 1256 15560, poor at 1252, het on

** AUSTRALIA. 12065, April 12 at 1354, RA VG with `On This Day` in history, but skipping 1945y! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRIA. 15155, April 11 at 2048, ``How Great Thou Art`` hymn, heavy flutter, French talk but accented almost Creolish. HFCC reveals it`s AWR via Moosbrunn to Africa, during this semihour only. BTW, replying to Joe Hanlon`s comment in DXLD 13-13, ``Indeed that's all it's registered for in A13 -- 6155 at 05-0615, per HFCC. I'd bet you that ORF will be off SW by the end of the year (Joe Hanlon, NJ, March 24, DX LISTENING DIGEST)`` --- Patrick Robic in Austria says: ``ORF will be on shortwave as long as the Moosbrunn transmitter site is on air. As Wolf Harranth explained some time ago in German language A-DX mailing list, an ORF transmission is the legal requirement for selling airtime to foreign customers. But ORF don´t pay for this transmission so you don´t have to expect more than a minimum schedule. 73, Patrick`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BANGLADESH. 15505, April 12 from *1358, BB IS is JBA today, but I can make out the timesignal ending 16 seconds early (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake April 12, before 1300: 11500, poor at 1251; none in the 10s 11970, good at 1257 13795, fair at 1249 (vs RFA Tibetan via Kuwait, unheard) 13980, poor at 1249 ; none in the 12s 14700, fair at 1247 with het 14980, fair at 1247 15900, very good at 1240, but only fair at 1247 16160, poor at 1244 16250, poor at 1244 16980, very poor at 1245 with flutter 17170, very poor at 1246 17250, very poor at 12446 17450, JBA? At 1244; not sure it is here as elsewhen Again this totals at least 12 transmitters at once. After 1400: 15570, poor at 1402 with het on lo side, which unusually even has some audio of its own, 15567? Then pitch shifts, like QSY to 15568? Not sure (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA [and non]. 6010, April 12 at 1227, something in English, which means CRI is far more likely than BBC, VOA or anything else natively in English. Yes: it`s // 9760 CRI. At this hour it`s mixing with Spanish, i.e. Radio Mil which I was trying to hear. At least XEOI is in the clear before 1200, and after whenever Colombia may fade out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** COSTA RICA. 5965, April 12 at 0522, REE relay in Castilian is back on proper frequency instead of 5995 last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 6060, April 12 at 0054, RHC is in correct language, Spanish // 6100, unlike French 24 hours earlier. 15220 15240, April 12 at 0059, very weak spurs from RHC 15230, and no buzz at the moment. They are exactly 10 kHz offset, another significant accomplishment by the crack team at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT [and non]. 13840 13860, April 12 at 0531, big filthy ratchety spur is heavily QRMing NHK French via MADAGASCAR on 13840, i.e. the R. Cairo 13850 transmitter, which is very distorted with humbuzz on fundamental and with equally awful spurblob on hi side. HFCC shows 13850 is on the air all the way from 02 to 07, 250 kW, 315 degrees from Abis to WEu and ENAm. NHK // 11730 is OK; see NEW ZEALAND (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDIA. 15770, April 12 at 1237, barely audible S Asian vocal and drum music with flutter, aside VOA Korean 15775. HFCC shows it`s AIR Telugu service until 1245, 250 kW, 132 degrees from Aligarh (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** JAPAN [non]. 11970, April 12 at 0527 checking how well NHK English via FRANCE is doing, sufficient signal bearing just dead air. This should be modulated right up to 0530 or at least 0529. How long was it dead? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also EGYPT, NZ ** KUWAIT. 15540, April 11 at 2047 tuning in sufficient signal from R. Kuwait so I stay with it to confirm whether or not they are still breaking for a biminute of news headlines in English at 2050 --- No. Rock music keeps playing until 2058 sign-off announcement, quick NA, accurate timesignal at 2100 compared to WWV, a bit of Arabic. Then checked intentional Arabic to deep N America on 17550, and today it`s JBA but presumably staying on another two sesquihours anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 1000, April 12 at 0602 UT, orchestral NA from a station where it`s local midnite; 0603 ID for Juárez and 12:03 timecheck, on to music. I.e. XEFV, La Rancherita. KTOK OKC [q.v.] had suspended modulation at hourtop, facilitating recapture of the Chihuahuan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also CHINA 6010; UNID 1570 ** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. 15720, April 12 at 0533, surprised to encounter RNZI here with golf news, good signal like Australia tonight also on 19m, but after 0459, RNZI is supposed to be on 11725, where there is nothing --- until 0535 when 15720 has vanished and 11725 has cut on very late. Until then NHK French via FRANCE on 11730 had no ACI, unlike the terrible

[HCDX] Retro Radio Dial Idaho USA 1963
Radio Heritage Foundation www.radioheritage.com April 12 2013 Idaho USA 1963 Retro Radio Dial A fascinating look back 50 years ago to 1963 and radio stations that could be heard from Idaho USA has just been released by the Radio Heritage Foundation at www.radioheritage.com. As well as a complete list of AM FM stations along the dial, the new feature includes the name of the radio station owners of that era, nearly all of which were local corporations and individuals in the days before mergers and acquisitions led to big changes in what Idahoans could listen to. Retro Radio Dial Idaho USA 1963-2013 is the second of a new series that will explore all 50 US states in the coming months, as well as other parts of the world. The feature also includes the Top 20 music Hits of 1963, popular movies, arrivals and departures and other aspects of popular culture. The period was also important in wider US popular culture, and you'll find many good books about the era that add to the flavor of the AM FM radio dial. The Retro Radio Dial series also includes features exploring radio as early as 1928 in California, Japan and Shanghai in 1941, Hawaii USA in 1961 Texas USA in 1963 and many new titles are currently in preparation. The Radio Heritage Foundation is an independent non-profit organization with no connections to the broadcasting industry or any government agency, and is supported by people worldwide who think it's important to protect radio memories for the future. Content at www.radioheritage.com is free. Come along and visit the Idaho radio dial in 1963 with us. There's even a place for you to share your own radio memories of those times.
