** BRAZIL. 15189.96, Radio Inconfidência, 2255-2310, March 12, Portuguese pop/ballads. IDs. Ads. Portuguese talk. In the clear with a good signal. // 6010 - very poor with co-channel QRM. (Brian Alexander, PA) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 15190, Radio Africa, 1750-1800, March 12, Presumed with English preacher. Fair level but poor, muffled audio. Sounded like Radio Africa audio. Also heard later at 2050-2245 with audio varying from muffled to fairly clear, depending on the program. Started to get some co-channel QRM from Brazil after 2225. Radio Africa off the air around 2255. (Brian Alexander, PA) ** ETHIOPIA. 6110, Radio Fana, *0256-0315, March 12, sign on with IS. Vernacular talk at 0300. Some Horn of Africa music.

[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs March 12, 2011
** BRAZIL. After hearing R. Africa reactivated(?) on 15190, seemingly with a second carrier interfering, as early as 2131 March 12, still at 2236 with EQUATORIAL GUINEA [q.v.] atop, by 2257 I am hearing only Portuguese, equatorial flutter, 2300 ending program `Sertanejo Moderno`, Inconfidência IDs and announcements with hyped enthusiasm. Brian Alexander, Pennsylvania, was listening at exactly the same time and put ZYE522 at 40 Hz low, after also hearing `Africa until 2255. Then I looked for Brazilians besides 11780 RNA on 25m: 11815 had a Portuguese-speaking preacher at 2311, modulation a bit distorted, fair signal. I sure hope R. Brasil Central has not sold out completely to the gospel-huxters like so many Brazilian SW stations! At least this one is low-key, no wailing David Miranda. 2317 hymn, 2321 R. Brasil Central ID in passing. Hope this is just a brief program breaking their usual music or `full-service` format (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL. After hearing the VY0SNO beacon on 10m, I kept looking for some SSB DX higher up, and soon logged two Paulistas from nowhere near Nunavut, March 12: 28406-USB, at 2151, PY2XC, making 5-9 contacts with US stations including a WB9. Sounds like a North American, but his QRZ.com lookup page shows: CARLOS SILVÉRIO, P. O. Box 210, ITUPEVA, SP 13295000, Brazil, with photos of himself and his rig. 28507.5-USB, at 2152, PY2OE: Rogerio (Roger) Campos, P. O. BOX 47545, 03563-970 São Paulo/SP, Brazil. He has a more authentic Brazilian accent in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISSTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. After hearing Cuba on 12m, I tried 10m, the lower part of which is 3+ MHz higher, and thus may still be above the MUF. At first, not much in the DX/SSB range, but at 2143 March 12, a beacon on 28183.3 approx.: DE VY0SNO VY0SNO VY0SNO FP53RS K sent over and over. QRZ.com shows a rather northerly location, to my surprise: ``VY0SNO, Larry L Horlick, BOX 1082, IQALUIT, NU X0A 0H0, Canada, Beacon: 10m: 28.182, 15 watts, 1/2 wave horizontal dipole, 30m ASL; A1`` And FP53RS chex for the grid square around Iqaluit. Poor signal with some fadeouts, but R5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. I recently caught CO8LY, Santiago, on 12 meter CW; he must be quite a fan of this band, since now I have him on phone/SSB, March 12 at 2138, calling CQ 12, QRZ on 24945-USB. Making quick contacts with 5-9 reports, so must be in a contest (unlike some DX contests which exclude this so-called ``WARC band`` as if the original hambands were not also established by previous World Administrative Radio Conferences). One was K4IA. At 2140, VA7CQ called him, but CO8LY did not respond. 2141 worked N5RRL. Looked for other 12m signals, and there was some CW at the low end, but CO8LY was the OSSBSOB --- only single sideband station on band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT. 11590, since there has been a recent report of decent modulation, with very low expectations I tried R. Cairo`s English to Western North America, March 12 at 2311, and I was not disappointed --- as almost always the case, there was NO modulation audible, on this S9+20 signal, with flutter. No improvement at 2316 when news should have been underway. By 2355, to be charitable, I would upgrade it to JBM --- just barely modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. As I inquired a few days ago, is R. Africa active on 15190? It may not have been for more than a month, but it`s there March 12 at 2131 with a distorted gospel huxter, perhaps mixed with Brasil. Retuned at 2155 just in time to hear outro of that show giving a .org website, no ID, and 2156 right in to program #428 from Tony Alamo --- yes, the disgraced, arrested, charged, prosecuted, convicted and serving 175 years for child sexual abuse evangelist is still on the air influencing dozens of listeners worldwide from his federal prison cell in Terre Haute, Indiana (or rather, from stockpile of old program tapes), thanks to Pan American Broadcasting and the Equatorial Guineans who couldn`t care less what scum they put on the air as long as the time keeps being paid for. At 2236 I can tell there are two carriers, as Alamo is mixed with noise, but I suspect more of that is coming from the Bata transmitter itself than Belo Horizonte. Apparently off by 2257, only hearing BRAZIL, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [non]. 15280, yet another new frequency for Harold Camping, unlisted in HFCC, Aoki or EiBi, March 12 at 2132, has constant hum and flutter, running 2 or 3 words behind // WYFR 17535, 17555. At 2157 the `Open Forum` discussion was cut short for a canned closing announcement by a much-younger sounding Camping, 2158 FR publication plug, 2159 ``Ehre`` theme to 2200*, and the hum goes off too, uncovering a very poor signal from RN in Dutch via Saipan just starting on 15280. Propagation is still degraded, as this RN relay is often
