[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs January 18-19, 2011
** AUSTRALIA. 15340, Jan 19 at 1444 het with MOROCCO [q.v.] on 15341, no doubt HCJB, while its other frequency 15400 is missing, already off at 1430. 15340 is to S Asia, large variety of languages in a complex schedule from 1145 to 1445, including Telugu at 1430 Wednesdays, but English daily 1445-1530 per Aoki. 15340 also has to cope with splatter from R. Martí, Greenville 15330 (not so much jamming yet). At 1445 I hear English being spoken slowly. Wish Morocco would hurry up and move to 15345. At 1500-1501, it does. Now 15340 can be copied at times, Oz YL keeps going past 1500 about food? 1502 advice on calamine lotion vs scabs, then YL song, hymn? 1512 weaker, mentioning it`s an HCJB produxion, Melbourne, Australia ID, 15330 splash is also growing, and by 1520 with music, HCJB is just about gone. Presumably one of its occasional appearances by longpath (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 9625.1, Jan 19 at 0702, S9+12 open carrier, lite fades, more wasted wattage from Sackville, running CBCNQ transmitter after-hours, this time lacking tone test, why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake Jan 19: 6030, good but flutter atop Taiwan victim at 1305, still at 1350 8400, very poor at 1243 Harold Frodge has compiled all the Firedrake frequencies and times reported in 2010y into one master list, within DXLD 11-01; quickly find it by searching on the first one, 5820, at http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1101.txt (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 9153.0, extremely strong S9+25+ open carrier before 0700 Jan 19 became 5-character cut spy numbers at 0702, on A2, i.e. modulated 1 kHz tones on continuous carrier, like Arnie`s DXers Unlimited closing on RHC. Since I quit listening after 0700 tuned to XEPPM 6185, when I turn on the FRG-7 at 1211, it`s already off, but I hear RHC on 6190, very poor but steady // 6000, 6095, 6140, 6150, all seeming synchronized. 6095 would leap over 6150 to land on 6205, so that doesn`t work out, and it would leap over 6140 (probably different site, undermodulated) to land on 6185, so not that either. Ahá, 6000 leaps over 6095 another 95 kHz higher to land on 6190. Reverse leap of these could put a twin on 5905. Could not hear 6190 after 1216. The RHC studio clock is losing more and more. Timechex have been running at least a minute slow, and Jan 19 at 1231:45 on 6000, Tony Gómez claims it`s ``exactamente las 7 con 30 minutos``. Can`t they pick up Radio Reloj? At 1256, 6000 and 6095 were off, transmitters about to move to 13 MHz, while 6140 and 6150 were still on. Then 6150 went off a few sex before 1301, with 6140 remaining, where it should stay all day. 12040, Jan 19 at 1317, RHC with echo and 3 Hz SAH, so they are running transmitters from both sites here! Great internal coördination. Subject: what else but Los 5, and Luis Posada Carriles. RHC cannot get thru a single hour without devoting a sizeable fraxion to these, its absolutely obsessive propaganda targets, yawn (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CZECHIA [non]. 9955, R. Prague in English via WRMI, Jan 19 at 0703 good but with lite pulse jamming on a fine night for MUF from SFL, 0704 ending news already, previewing topix for rest of semihour. With Radio Prague slated to self-destruct its own SW broadcasts at monthend, we await word whether WRMI will continue them beyond (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUAM. 5765-USB, Jan 19 at 1351, AFN with C&W music, W&M DJs mentioning a contest on `` Country``. Better signal now than an hour earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA. 4052.5-, TGAV, Jan 19 at 1220, S9+12 with music, but rather distorted and carrier unstable with BFO on. Via Jan WWDXC DX News, Christoph Ratzer, Austria in A-DX forwards an undated reply from Dr. Madrid: ``We had a long fight (two years) to get our short wave transmitter on the air again. Thanks to Eng. Ralph Borthwick, from Canada, we got our transmitter repaired and a very effective new antenna built. About a month ago, we had one module amplifier accidentally burned out, and now, we are transmitting with 210 watts only. (That was a new attack from Satan.) We hope to have the other amplifier repaired very soon. We are facing another trouble, and it is that our transmitter is delaying from one and a half to two hours to get started in the morning. Anyhow, our signal is very strong still, due to the effectiveness of the new antenna. Thank you for your intentions of providing us with an offering. We are desperately needing offerings, but we have not received any. (You know, we don't ever advertise offerings. We operate by faith.) If you visit our Web Site, on the left menu, there is an article entitled "Radio Truth up to Date". In that article, I published last week the information that Radio Truth is on a financial bankruptcy status right now, as we spent very much money on the recent repairs. And this is despite

Bolivia, 3310.02, Radio Mosoj Chaski, 2355-0005, Noted a male and female in conversational Spanish until 2359 when short burst of music heard. Then more chatter by a female and more traditional music as new day begins. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) South Africa, 3320.03, Radio Sonder Grense, 0002-0015, Noted a male in Africaans language news. Some interference noted on 3320 from utility in Sideband with call sign Alfa Whiskey Papa. At 0005 news finished on Sonder Grense as a female talks. Signal was good. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Honduras, 3340.01, Radio Misiones, 0006-0020, At tune in, noted what sounded like "Rap" music in Spanish language. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Peru, 4746.96, Radio Huanta Dos Mil, 0016-0025, Noted Huaynos type music with a male in Spanish language comments briefly between tunes. Nice signal at a fair level. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Peru, 4774.95, Radio Tarma, 0019-0030, Noted a program of regular Peruvian type music, but rather in the noise making for difficult copy. Noted a male in Spanish comments between tunes. Signal was poor unfortunately. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Brazil, 4775, Radio Congonhas, Pres, 0019-0030, This is a second signal next to Tarma that is probably Congonhas. It's pretty weak and no audio is able to be heard. Signal was threshold. (Chuck Bolland, January 20 , 2011) Bolivia, 4699.96, Radio San Miguel, 0008-0020, With what sounded like news, noted a male in Spanish language comments. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Brazil, 4845.24, Radio Cultura Ondas Tropicais, 0025-0037, Noted a male in steady Portuguese language comments using the echo effect throughout. Signal was poor. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Peru, 5024.92, Radio Quillabamba, 0040-0050, With a very weak signal, noted a male in Spanish language comments. Radio Rebelde is dominating the frequency however. Quillabamba is threshold. (Chuck Bolland, January 20, 2011) Comment: Very good signals this evening for awhile. It's a nice clear night here in Florida with a 98 percent full moon shining down on my antenna. What more could a Radio Listener want? Anyone with similarly good conditions tonight, drop me a note to tell me about it if you have time?
