[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs September 22-23, 2012

[Glenn Hauser]

** BANGLADESH. 15105, Sept 23 at 1252, no signal from Bangladesh Betar this 
Sunday, despite lots of ChiCom signals on the band; nor around 1335; nor on 
15505 from 1359 past 1401. Also absent Saturday, so we wonder if BB just takes 
the weekends off, or is something else wrong? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** CHINA. 4940, Sept 23 at 1214 Chinese talk, very poor in noise but best/only 
signal from Asia on 60m, i.e. per Aoki, V. of Strait, 50 kW, 140 degrees from 
Fuzhou, way offbeam USward. 

At 1217 on 90m searching for PNG, N Korean carriers, also one on 3280, 
presumably V. of Pujiang, 15 kW southward from Shanghai (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 9890, Sept 23 at 0332, CRI English with echo. This is produced 
in my FRG-7 receiver only, tnx to overload from super-strong signals on 9690 
via Spain and 9790 via Cuba, eliminable by attenuation. FYI: this is not a log 
of something axually transmitted, so not quoting it would be understandable; 
yet someone might be misled by an anomaly like this if they hear it (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 11975 & 12005, Sept 23 at 1250, filthy FM spurs from CNR1 jammer on 
11990 have moved in closer to the fundamental, instead of 11970 & 12010 as 24 
hours earlier; now with dramatic yelling program. And once again both gone 
after 1300 as the offending unit on 11990 has closed, while other CNR1 jamming 
against VOA remains.

21590, Sept 23 at 1303, equally poor mix of CNR1 jamming and presumed BBC Uzbek 
via CYPRUS as scheduled this semihour, since the ChiCom interfere in the 
internal affairs of Uzbekistan, just because Uzbek is a Turkic language 
understood by some in East Turkistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** CHINA. Firedrake Sept 23, before 1300:
1, very good at 1253; none in the 17s, 16s, 14s, 13s, 12s
15795, JBA at 1253, mixing with echo CNR1 jamming vs AIR Mandarin 
17705, at 1255 the // AIR Mandarin with no FD, just CNR1 jamming over Indian 
music

Before 1400:
 7445, JBA at 1338, under CNR1 jamming, RTI
 9680, poor at 1338 in the mix with CNR1 jamming, RTI and RRI // 16100 
14960, poor at 1334; none in the 12s or 13s
15495, poor at 1334
15940, poor at 1334
16100, good at 1335
16920, fair at 1335
16980, fair at 1335
18200, poor at 1337 with flutter; none in the 17s

** COLOMBIA. 5910, Sept 23 at 0348 peppy music from reactivated HJDH, missing 
last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CYPRUS. 9898-9923, Sept 23 at 0353, OTH radar pulses, presumed from here, 
mainly blocking BBC Arabic on 9915, which until 0400 is definitely from Cyprus, 
then Woofferton UK. Wolfgang Büschel also reported this: ``CYPRUS/TURKEY?? OTHR 
on S=9+30dB powerhouse at 0420 UT 9896 to 9924 kHz range`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** DENMARK. 24940-USB, Sept 23 at 1344, 5Q4B, fonetik call from some exotic 
spot? Says using 3-element beam for 12 and 17m; apparently a contest is 
running, with quick exchanges of signal reports; bothered at 1346 by VFO 
sweeping up and down across. QRZ.com is sluggish today with everyone accessing 
it, but finally reveals it`s just Denmark. What`s wrong with a plain old OZ 
call? I would never have guessed 5Q = Denmark: 5Q4B, J. Vibaek, Box 83, Koege 
DK 4600, Denmark (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ESTONIA. 28521-USB, Sept 23 at 1355, ES1BA calling CQ, i.e. per 
http://qrzcq.com/call/ES1BA --- Vyacheslav (slava) Abramov, 10316 Tallin, 
Estonia, who must be an ethnic Russian lingerer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

** GUAM. 5765-USB, Sept 23 at 1222, JBA talk, presumably AFN still active, with 
NPR WESUN. Too weak to get a definite // to KOSU which is IBOC-delayed (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUIANA FRENCH. 11995, Sept 23 at 0336 the open carrier with hum, presumed 
from here, is on again this early, also at 0429 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 11920, Sept 23 at 0337, VIRI news theme and then English news by YL, 
having got the opening Qur`anic exercises out of the way preventing news 
promptly on the Iranian hour. Somewhat undermodulated and distorted audio, 
slightly better on synchronized // 13650. Tho from different sites: 11910 
Kamalabad 324 degrees, 13650 Sirjan 330 per HFCC. In B-12 they change to Sirjan 
11770, Kamalabad 9710, different than last winter. Will those avoid collisions? 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRELAND [non]. 17685 via UK, and 17540 via SOUTH AFRICA, Sunday Sept 23 at 
1459 check, RTE Football Final special is very poor on both; I can only tell 
that some irrational announcer is excited about a silly ballgame, and surely 
not worth further pursuit. They will be back one week later for hurling replay, 
then gone again until next September (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ISRAEL. 6973, Sept 23 at 0343, trolling the pirate band, first I find music 
on AM here, soon Hebrew announcement from Galei Zahal; fair signal. I never 
hear it after 0500,

[HCDX] 19-23 September Loggings

[Dave Valko]

SUDAN   7200   R. Omdurman   Suddenly on at 0232:40 w/native mx in progress but 
barely modulated.  Apparently V.O. Broad Masses also here starting at 0313.  (20 
Sept.)


SOMALIA   7120   R. Hargeisa   OC followed by HoA mx.  Finally a 1 min. anmnt by M 
at 0354:55 in which there were ments of what sounded like "Radio Ree-kah".  More 
mx, then diff. M again at 0405:22 w/more ments Radio "Ree-kah".  Mx again 0406. 
0414:15 more anmnts by same M starting w/ment of Radio Ree-Kah which must be an ID. 
Same thing again at 0423:04.  Odd though as I didn't hear this in Ron Howards 
recording.  Fading after 0400 of course and nearly inaudible by 0445.  (20 Sept.)


MAURITANIA   7245  R. Mauritania   Unlike yesterday, was not on all night. 
Suddenly on at 0621:48 in mid-Koran.  (20 Sept.)


BRAZIL   4785   R. Caiari   On at 0855:20 w/soft ZY ballad in progress.  Full ID at 
0858:34, followed by ID jingles mentioning AM freq.  (20 Sept.)


BOLIVIA   4716.7   R. Yura   Signal on well before 0955.  Audio finally up at 
1002:50 w/2 IDs and ment of Bolivia by W during tlk in Ayamara.  Mx at very very 
low level.  (20 Sept.)


MYANMAR??   7345   Rakhine BS?? (very tent.)   1056 finally getting a little mx at 
this time but audio ext. weak.  Was getting a carrier for about the previous 10 
min.  CNR blasted it out at 1100.   Don't see anything else listed here prior to 
CNR s/on.  (20 Sept.)


21 September  2012:  Decided to try a micro-DXpedition this morning.  I was 
disappointed with the propagation.  LAs were quite poor.  The Myanmar 
stations/freqs were hardly audible.  The PNGs were the only saving grace.  I wouldn't 
quite say they were good, but they were fairly good.  3235 and 3260 were best.  At 
330°, the BOG was actually situated perfectly for reception of both Pacific and 
Asia.  Pacific was much much better.  So I don't know if it had to do with 
propagation or if the antenna just needed to be laid out in a more northerly 
direction.


RX:  Microtelecom Perseus SDR with ARR preamp.
ANT:  315' Beverage (BOG) at 330°.
QTH:  Pennsylvania State Game Lands #26
Duration:  0850-1200 UTC

NBC.  Studio M anncr at 1113 w/ID "...NBC station Madang...".  (21 Sept.)


3324.889 and 3325 two signals here noted at 1035.  Suspect the former is 
Palangkaraya and the latter is Bougainville.(21 Sept.)


PAPUA NEW GUINEA   3365   R. Milne Bay   1035 "We Are the World".  "Take It Easy" 
by The Eagles at 1053.  (21 Sept.)


PAPUA NEW GUINEA   3315   R Manus   1104:35 nice bird call and drums, then into nx
