Signal was too weak for me to glean any details, but at 0937 UTC it seemed to be improving slightly. Not enough to copy however. Back to music at 0938. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Peru, 5039.20, Radio Libertad, 0955-1005, Noted a fairly weak signal with music and Spanish comments and promos by a male which seemed to be recorded. Signal was rather weak not showing on the waterfall display but the audio was threshold. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Peru, 4774.978, Radio Tarma, 1004-1020, At tune in, noted a male with promos followed by typical Huaynos music. Signal went from a fair to poor by 1013, but still audible for awhile. Rechecked at 1040 UTC and signal had improved to a good level still with Huaynos music. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Bolivia, 6134.849, Radio Santa Cruz, 1015-1030, Noted a male and female in their regular morning program of instruction. Possibly a language course of some kind? This continues during the half hour. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Philippines, 9400.00, FEBC, pres, 1030-1040, Noted a male and female in Mandarin language comments over music. Signal was poor by audible. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Peru, 4747.114, Radio Huanta Dos Mil, 1036-1100, Noted a male in Spanish Language comments. Hadn't heard this earlier when I was on this band, so they must have come on later after 1000 UTC. Anyway the signal was fair during this period as the male continued to comment. Believe I heard a female in there also. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Unid, 4749.989, 1040-1100, Noted a signal being displayed only, on this frequency. Could not pickup any audio since it was too weak. Wondering as I continue to listen for something, if this may be the Indonesian, RRI Makassar, that was on this frequency in the past? I will continue to monitor this frequency with the hope that some audio eventually gets through. At 1112 UTC, no audio heard, so decided to drop the coverage. (Chuck Bolland, September 14, 2012) Peru, 4810.00, Radio Logos, 1055-1100 Noted a threshold signal here with some music and comments being heard over the noise. Unfortunately, I tuned in too late to hear anything from this station. However, an earlier check would have been just as bad with the QRM that is normally on this frequency or just above it. Signal

** ARGENTINA. 15345v, Sept 11 at 2101, ethereal RAE IS is JBA aside much stronger 15349.1 Morocco, q.v. From Sept 30 when Morocco goes off DST, the QRM should last an hour longer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** BANGLADESH. 15105, Sept 12 before 1300 and at 1315, no trace of Bangladesh Betar`s English and Nepali broadcasts; nor on possible alternate 15505 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake Sept 12, not complete searches, just: 14400, fair at 1242 with flutter 14700, poor at 1242 with flutter 15495, fair at 1319 more noise than music, just started up 15560, good at 1317 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 12060, Sept 12 at 1241, lite pulse jamming from second harmonic of DentroCuban Jamming Command on 6030 vs R. Martí (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** EGYPT. 15480, Sept 12 at 0029, fair signal with Arabic music, modulation OK. It`s R. Cairo, 250 kW, 245 degrees from Abu Zaabal at 2330-0045 in Arabic following 2215-2330 in Portuguese to Brasil. 13855, Sept 12 at 0033, 13855 is the OSOB! Must be in a 22 mb scheduling lull. S9+10 but extremely distorted Qur`an(?) with hum. This one is R. Cairo, 250 kW, 286 degrees from Abis in Arabic at 2330-0045, plus Spanish at 0045-0200. 13620, Sept 12 at 0110, a big hum at S9+10, except for some JBM traces at peaks of original audio. This one is R. Cairo, 250 kW, 241 degrees from Abis at 0045-0200 in Spanish, so now there are two signals on the band --- and neither of them any good! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** FRANCE. 17620, Sept 12 at 1257-1259* French talk, sounds like normal programming from RFI, certainly not music fill; poor signal squeezed between the Saudis on 17615 and 17625. A strike of undetermined length had been planned to start at 2200 UT Sept 11, Mike Cooper had reported on Sept 8, but at 1118 UT Sept 12 he follows up: ``No evidence of a RFI strike heard on air, despite the strike notice. This may be because of a meeting yesterday of labor leaders and RFI management, during which management said it would delay plans to move staff from Paris to the suburbs. Management also said it would make no further plans until a new director is named for the AEF, the parent organization of RFI that also includes TV5 and France 24. Plans to consolidate the RFI and France 24 web sites have been put on hold, as have plans to consolidate the Arabic editorial staff of France 24 (television) and Monte Carlo Doualiya (radio)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. 9526-, Sept 12 at 1237, another day with no signal from VOI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 9560, Sept 12 at 0201, VG signal from KBS World Radio in Spanish via CANADA as usual; checked following a Bulgarian DXpedition blog showing this as English to North America. I see that Aoki correctly shows this semihour as in Spanish, but incorrectly still shows another semihour of English on same at 0230, which was cancelled months ago. I thought we had clarified this back in July (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11510, Sept 12 at 0521, Kurdish talk on good signal from Denge Kurdistana, presumably via UKRAINE as registered with HFCC, supposedly all the way from 03 to 19, altho when checked arounod 1300, I hear no trace of it on 11510 or on former 11530 where it was known as Denge Mezopotamiya (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 680, Sept 12 at 1213 UT, string of ads for agricultores, from Guasave, i.e. per Cantú: 680 XEORO La Mera Jefa + FM 93.7 Guasave, Sin. 1,000 500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 870, Sept 12 at 1206, after NA promptly at 1200 UT, retune to find XETAR Guachochi, Chihuahua in native language and Spanish, mentions e-mail address xetar @ cdi.gob.mx CDI stands for Comisión Nacional para el Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas; brief mañanitas tune and on to other talk rather than birthday greetings.

Almost matches Cantú listing: 1040 XEHES Romántica + FM 94.1 Chihuahua, Chih. 5,000 250 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MOROCCO. 15349.1, Sept 11 at 2101 after hearing 15345v Argentina, q.v., IMM is still running with YL news in Arabic, but rudely cut her mike at 2103:15 and off the air at 2103:30*. Morocco is still on DST until Sept 30 when it should stay on the air one hour longer. But programming will also be one

[HCDX] Wednesday DX
Peru, 4790.00 Radio Vision, pres, 0918-0935, Tuned in to regular Huaynos type music until a minute went by (0919 UTC) and a female commented briefly in Spanish. Unfortunately the signal was just a little to weak to catch the details of her comments. Before I could retune, music was continued with Huaynos music. Although the signal was reasonably fair, it still was difficult to catch details. At 0930 more comments by a male using echo effect. Could not pull out the details but it seemed like a religious program was in progress? (Chuck Bolland, September 12, 2012) Peru, 4810.010, Radio Lagos, 0935-0950, Just popped on the air with music, and so far with a nice clean signal. Needed to notch out some interference on the high side however. The music continued without any breaks. The signal remained at a good level.
