[HCDX] R Rossii ceased Reg on SW?
RUSSIA It is perhaps a too strong assertion from me but it really looks like Radio Rossii ceased regional programs relayed on shortwaves at the end of 2011. During the first week of January I failed to hear at least one of those transmissions I heard in December. That is why I compiled a detailed list of all regional programs on SW (acc. to WRTH 2012) grafically into a table and started to check specific frequencies. Here are few examples of my results: Magadan 5940+7320 kHz - no Reg at 2200 UTC (scheduled) Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskiy 6075 kHz - no Reg at 0610 and 1800 (scheduled) Krasnoyarsk 6085 kHz - no Reg at 2310 (scheduled) Arkhangelsk 6160 kHz - no Reg at 0910 and 1410 (heard in December) Ulan Ude 6195 kHz - no Reg at 2110 and 2210 (scheduled) Yakutsk 7230 kHz - no Reg at 0810 (heard in December) There are always relays of Radio Rossii (EUR version or Duble versions for Far East) at those time scheduled for regional programs. I have found out that this year (2012) I have not heard any R.R. regional program on SW yet. Maybe some of our Russian friends are able to confirm or deny it. It is a pity if it is true.

That`s how the announcer, who obviously knows nothing about SW, pronounced 12150? The trouble is, none of these are in the B-11 schedule for this `special service for Sudan` in the VOA English listings on page 489 of the 2012 WRTH: instead, 9790 bot, 11905 wer, and 13635 wer, M-F at 1630-1700 --- and the latter are still shown in the latest HFCC. So that promo was hardly helpful to anyone axually trying to hear the service. At 0630, 15580 continued with VOA`s `International Edition` news, whilst BBC on 15400, also a good sig via SOUTH AFRICA, was concentrating on African news in English. This opening did not affect Nigeria on 15120, which was JBA at 0636. 15440 DW Rwanda in Hausa was also in well at 0637, and CVC 1Africa Zambia was also good at 0632 way up on 17695 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BRAZIL [non]. 9725, Jan 3 at 1249, still no sign of Portuguese from possibly reactivated R. Clube Paranaense; just a weak signal in something else, presumably still Iran in Pashto (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** FRANCE [and non]. 7220, Jan 3 at 0620, RFI is still in Hausa, so I try to hear English on 9765, but not there, just propagation? Doubt it, as e.g. RNW via further PRIDNESTROVYE is in well on 9895. More RFI frequencies are missing, so I fear there have been unexpected cutbacks for 2012y: 17690, RFI Spanish missing via GUIANA FRENCH at 1403, 1627 for the 1400 and 1600 broadcasts. Will it also be missing at 2100 from 17630? 17620 and 15300 direct from Issoudun also absent at 1403, 1644; 21560 at 1403 with the NHK relay was barely audible, so the site is still funxional. Also need to check 21690 which is scheduled for RFI Issoudun, and at 17-20 from Montsin?ry. Nothing on it so far before 17. No news of any strikes at the moment, and besides, during previous strikes the frequencies stayed on the air with RFI Musique fill (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. 9526-, Jan 3 at 1435, VOI in drama with great emotion, gamelan background, fair signal with no QRM during Indonesian hour, while English at 13-14 is still a total loss (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA NORTH. 9665, Jan 3 at 1420, beautiful harmonious music from soprano and chorus on KCBS, which must mean the DPRK is full of harmony, right? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MAURITANIA. 7245, Jan 3 at 0614, IGIM is still not on unlike the day before. 0646 next check, it is on with YL wailing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 710, Jan 3 at 1346, gobierno federal PSA with whistling, but didn`t catch from which department; `Noticiero 7-10`, timecheck before 7 am local = MST, negative-C temp, mentioning several Chihuahua cities, so it`s the usual dominator XEDP in Cuauht?moc, supposedly 7 kW, and occupying the

** ALGERIA [non]. Besides many RFI transmissions, see FRANCE, an RTA frequency via Issoudun is also missing: Jan 4 at 0610, nothing on 5865. See the HFCC schedule at http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B11broadc=TDA but note that it mixes in imaginary transmissions by sites inside Algeria, and also includes dates not currently in effect. Removing all the chaff, the remaining current daily schedule is: 5865 0400 0500 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 5865 0500 0600 37S,46 194 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 7295 0500 0600 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 5865 0600 0700 37S,46 194 500 30-Oct-2011 25-Feb-2012 9390 1800 2000 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 7455 1900 2100 37S,46 194 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 9390 1900 2100 37S,46 194 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 7455 2000 2100 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 25-Feb-2012 9390 2000 2100 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 5865 2100 2300 37S,46 194 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 7455 2100 2200 37S,38W,46E,47,48W 162 500 30-Oct-2011 24-Mar-2012 Please confirm whether any of these are still on the air. No point in my checking 9390 at 1800-2100, due to Brother Scare 9385 WWRB (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ASCENSION. 11985, Jan 3 at 2149, VTC music loop is playing on poor signal. Must have lost feed from FEBA Pulaar broadcast scheduled daily [except Wed, but this was Tue] 2145-2215 via BaBcoCk for 250 kW, 27 degree transmission from English Bay (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BULGARIA. 9400, Jan 4 at 0606, good open carrier from R. Bulgaria, kilowasting kilowatts long before the next transmission at 0630 in German. Not on // 7400, however. Both frequencies are supposed to be in Turkish at 0600-0630, and may well be in the opposite direxion, from other Plovdiv transmitters, as we have previously heard that barely audible under the big carrier, but not tonight. Axually, HFCC shows 5900, 7400 and 9400 for 0600-0630 Turkish, but WRTH shows only 5900 and 7400 --- With the single exception of one Bulgarian language broadcast, RB never uses more than two SW frequencies at once, so one of those at 0600 is wooden (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake Jan 4 1455-1500: NONE found 7-19 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** FRANCE [and non]. Many, but not all RFI broadcasts previously scheduled continue to be missing in 2012y. We are trying to find out whether permanent cancellations have been made, or there is some other problem such as industrial action at the transmitter sites, and/or at certain language sections? 21690, Jan 3 at 1831, French is still poorly audible. The 17-20 segment has been scheduled via GUIANA FRENCH. Jorge Freitas, Brasil also heard this Jan 3 until closing at 1959. 17630, the Spanish broadcast at 2100-2130 is still missing Jan 3 at 2116 check, (and Jorge Freitas agrees). Mike Cooper says: ``RFI Spanish programming found on satellite as usual at 2100, nothing heard on 17630. I don't know of any reason for the frequencies to be missing. No reference to frequency issues seen at RFI Spanish page(s). Review of French news, including AFP in French, turns up nothing mentioning TDF or anything unusual out of French Guyana.`` So are all RFI Spanish broadcasts off? 1000-1030 UT M-F on 7375, 9825, and 1200-1230 on 17610, 15515, all GUF, I have not yet checked. But Mike Cooper reports Jan 4: ``Glenn: Meteo Marine not heard this morning on 13640 at 1130, nor Spanish on 17690 at 1400`` 11995, Jan 4 at 0555, no signal from RFI English as scheduled at 05-06, altho the band was about dead, so can`t be sure it`s off. 9765, Jan 4 at 0603, no signal, scheduled for 06-07 English, and the band is certainly open, e.g. Turkey 9820, 9700; Pridnestrovye 9895; Bulgaria 9400, etc., etc. 7220, Jan 4 at 0607, RFI Hausa is still on the air, ex-English by mistake until 0630. 7390, Jan 4 at 0607, RFI French is weakly audible and seems undermodulated; also on 5925 vs heavy splatter from WWCR 5935. 15300 and 17620, Jan 4 at 1410, RFI French are missing, and so is Spanish via GUF on 17690. Ditto next Spanish after 1600 on 17690. Meanwhile, other DXLD monitors have also been checking out RFI: Walt Salmaniw, Victoria BC: ``Glenn asked whether RFI in English was on at 04 to 08 UT. I checked tonight 4 Jan, and conditions were not very good, and all that was audible was very weak carriers on 9805 between 04 and 05, and 15160 between 06 and 07. Both far too weak to ID, and nothing at all on any of the other frequencies`` Harold Sellers, BC: ``I was also hearing 15160 very weak - but IDable - in the 0600-0700 period tonight, January 4`` That conflicts with wb`s note about 15160 below, and I must point out that R. Australia is also on 15160 in English at 05-08 --- this entry is missing from current HFCC, but in
