[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 29, 2008
** CANADA. It`s always something awry at Sackville. 9625 remained in whack with no spurs audible, but at 1419 Dec 29, NHKWNRJ relay on 11705 was overmodulated somewhat and splattering 11680-11730 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHAD. No sign of RNT on 4905, Dec 29 at 0600. Perhaps they were back on 6165, but nothing much there either, poor propagation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. 9526, VOI, Dec 29 at 1457 poor signal hit by perpetual het from on-frequency 9525, CRI about to start English via Kashi, but Jakarta on top, at 1500 opening its own English, mentioning 11785 which they are not using at this time, 1502:30 into news headlines, but knowing I would shortly be abandoned, to avoid frustration, I stopped listening but left a receiver with BFO on 9527, to detect how long the transmitter would stay on by mistake this time: until 1511* Ron Howard, California was listening at exactly the same time, reminds us it`s really 9525.90 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. XERTA, 4800, Dec 29 at 0601, with Mexican national anthem at local midnight. If you are not familiar with it, a good chance to hear it any night, and help locate other stations, especially on MW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** PHILIPPINES. FEBC, 9430, VG signal with unpublicized bilingual broadcast, Dec 29 at 1453 OM in American English talking about grace, another tenuous theological concept, alternating with YL in Chinese, presumably consecutive translation. Bocaue, 100 kW at 345 degrees, but could have been aimed right at US. Then at 1504 found weaker but sufficient signal on 9400 saying Salaam Aleikum, Turkic language and only recognized an occasional foreign word such as druzhya, Bethlehem, all talk, still at 1518, but 1523 a bit of music; 1525 splatter de Brother Scare/WWRB 9385 worsening as 9400 faded some, wrapping up, 1528:30 mentioned Almatá, Kazakhstan, I think. 1530 Jesus-Saves IS, so it`s FEBC, and off at 1530:30*. Then looked up in Aoki to find it`s Uighur from Bocaue at 323 degrees. No trace of jamming, so the Chicom are not so worried about the gospel huxters as they are about the few secular or Islamic-influenced broadcasts on SW in Uighur (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** RUSSIA. 6115, Dec 29 at 1443 with brief Russian axualities into Chinese voice-overs, somewhat distorted. If I were list-logging with PWBR `2009` I would have to conclude this was YFR in English via Irkutsk, but unseems; instead per Aoki it`s VOR in Chinese via Khabarovsk (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SEYCHELLES [non]. Just above big signal from Turkey 12035, found English preaching with British accent on 12045, Dec 29 at 1422, mentioning believers, femininity. S9 +12 on the meter, but quite undermodulated, and flutter. 1428 closing with a P O Box 8700 address somewhere in India, and separate FEBA address. 1429:30 IS and off, but back on a few sex later, much weaker with tone or het. I had just happened upon one of the rare English broadcasts from FEBA, this one via UAE, on Mondays only, and switching from 110 to 70 degrees for Urdu following, per Aoki. I`d think the UA Emir would be in trouble with his Islamic brethren for broadcasting all this Infidel stuff; but then compared to the debauchery going on in Dubai, this is small potatoes and who`s to know where it is really coming from? Heh, heh (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** VENEZUELA [non]. RNV CI, 11680 via Cuba, Dec 29 at 1541-1546 had segment Contacto con los Diexistas: intro and outro in Spanish but body of program by the YL with broken English. She read report from Juan Franco Crespo in Spain (who surely wrote in Spanish), and from someone in Kanagawa, then quick explanation of SINPO and UTC, formerly ``GTM`` -- Like the hoary schedule announcements, RNV keeps running these items over and over too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 6074, 8GAL back with conventional V/CQ marker at *1400-1401* Dec 29. Started before the 5-second-late timesignal from RUSSIA 6075 had finished (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### ---[Start Commercial]- Order your WRTH 2008: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/redirect2.php?id=wrth2008 ---[End Commercial]--- Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ ___ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.

[HCDX] Logs for Al Muick
QTH:Kabul, Afghanistan RX: WinRadio G303e ANT:200m Longwire/Randomwire ACC:Palstar MW-550P Mediumwave Preselector 3321AFGHANISTAN, RTV Afghanistan heard at 1627 on 29 Dec with local talk in vernacular and some music. This is the 3rd harmonic of nominal 1107 kHz. This just appeared so they may be mis-tuned. VoA audio heard underneath the main audio, so it would appear that the US govt. has their fingers in this somehow. Supposedly this is 400kW. This was very strong, so there is a very good chance those outside of Afghanistan may hear it. 4865INDIA, AIR Unid. heard at 1610 on 29 Dec w/subcontinental mx, Hindi talk and booming signals. Lots of talk about Pakistan. Several IDs as Yeh All India Radio Heh. Audio stopped at 1622 in mid talk. Dead air carrier clear through until 1742 s/off. Nothing listed in EiBi, AOKI, WRTH or AIR website. Was this 4860 that was misprogrammed? 4925INDONESIA, RRI Jambi heard at 1558 on 29 Dec w/Indonesian talk, station ID, up until s/off at 1622. First Indo regional heard by me here in Kabul. Weak, but may be the precursor to a good opening. Well, the flu is just about gone, and I can at least walk up the stairs without wheezing. Our guesthouse generator died the other night, so there was no power and we spent the night freezing and huddled around one of the famous Afghan stoves. Thank you Johnnie Walker! Kept me warm all night. We now have a new generator and it is practically brand new. The noise and hash on the bands have been greatly reduced, (witness RRI Jambi) and there are lots of new signals to be heard. Mediumwave is especially clear now (used to be a lot of spurious genset noise on there), and I am hoping to get some good DXing in for the New year.

(conteporary rhythmic music originating from the Ivory Coast), mainly using major chords, though using minor ones too at times) which puts you in a Trance without un philtre d'amour. Generally very good, but local computer-like QRM maked understandibility partial especially during the poem reading when the signal was slightly lower. In any event, best ever reception of this station ! The new battery (which already weakened) definitely allowed the PK's Magnetic LW loop to be the perfect choice ! +162 DEC 25 0005 - End of newscast, then into a discussion w/ a religious zealot about what is the church's position on the economical crisis which is shaking the Earth right now. Fair-good and liste! nable in spite of some moderate growl, likely from a computer in the neighborhood.

Poor-fair with severe computer-like QRM. I see old repports about the GWEN, what the Groundwave Emergency Network is all about ? Noises, morse, voice utility signals or computer-like noise ?

[HCDX] CT(Yule)LOG 081229
Konnie’s CT(Yule)LOG 081229 ** USA-MN, KSTP (pres), 1500, Sun Dec 28 2338-UTC. Caught my attention first was the anncr-less Christmas songs this late in the season, in a foreign language albeit, and then a Sunday program preacher in it's null. Much needed KSTP never reached level long enough for signif detail, quick spurts of a sec or two once in awhile. Coincidently, my daughter drove home and walking thru the door asked where does Radio Olympus on 1500 come from? That answered the language question, WTWP-DC with Greek programming. EE Anncmnt 2349, We interrupt regular programming on Federal News Radio to bring you this [wait for it...] special sports presentation on 15-00 and 8-20 AM. Washington Capitols Hockey pgrm - retiring of #11 Mike Gardner after ten years. I knew the Christmas songs, in any language, were too good to last (Washington stomps Christmas!) Gave up KSTP after an hour - never fails, just as you start recording, the signal is never what it was when you first heard it. (Konnie Rychalsky, SW CT) ** USA-NH, WGIR, 930, Mon Dec 29 0942-UTC. Z-DX or snooze while recording DX, found five (six?) stations, fighting it out before sunrise, in stereo*. Presumed WHLM-PA (sounded like WHMO or LO) w/ Christmas songs quick into fade, and two stations carrying Coast-to-Coast with echo, WBEN-NY one of them. Two other stations exchanging stage, one with early '50s oldies format but never got an ID. Just before end of tape, another ID heard: WGIR Sports. Not so fast, Santa...there is no WGI-R on 930, come to find out. WGIR is on 610 from NH. A quick search of stations with call letters WGI-*, it was interesting to find instead a WGI-N on 930, and also from NH, and a WGI-P on 1540, and again - also from NH. Simple logical deduction, all three freqs as assumed are listed in WGIR logo, www.wgiram.com along with am930wgin.com. Also explains one Coast-to-Coast station heard, carried here. No clear or obvious notation though that 930 carries 610, while 1540 a daytimer. *Stereo recording made using two receivers, facing 40 and 290 degrees respectively (L R channels) from here. Anyone who has read this far, and is interested, and would like to hear a sample, I’ll send an mp3 attachment for your interest, as long as you promise to listen with headsets!!!
