** AUSTRALIA. 17840, Feb 6 at 0258, R. Australia still good signal wrapping up 
`World Today`, // 15240 only fair (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL [and non]. 11712, Feb 6 at 0310, second-order extremely distorted 
crackling spur from RNA 11780.1v is centered about here, QRMing neighbour 
Radiodifusi?n Argentina al Exterior during presumed English broadcast, but too 
poor to tell, with this added to the 11710 het against RAE always off-frequency 
closer to 11711. As always, the first-order RNB/RNA spurs are even stronger, 
now centered approx. 11747 and 11813 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9790, Feb 6 at 0306, CRI English relay with usual bigsig but 
modulation is quite low with hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9965, Feb 6 at 0304, R. Cairo mainly whine, JBM but signal level is 
good with flutter, in Arabic service.

9860, Feb 6 at 0305, R. Cairo, JBM with low hum, supposedly English service, 
fair signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 620, Feb 6 at 0332, full ID for XEBU in Chihuahua, 10,000 
watts, also on FM, temp 13 C. WRTH lists as 5/1 kW, NRC as non-direxional 
always, so maybe the 10 kW applies to FM. Not so dominant a signal as it used 
to be and I feared it might have closed AM already. 

Somewhat separable from KMKI Plano TX, still on with Disney (which I read has 
an STA to run night facility also in daytime --- that means 4.5 instead of 5 
kW, and major lobes to the NW and SW, rather than a broad lobe from SW to NW to 
NE (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 770, Feb 6 at 0328, political ad for Partido del Trabajo, then full 
ID from Radio F?rmula Monterrey, XEACH, 770, 25,000 watts, street address, 
phone numbers. ``Siempre Viva Voz`` slogan, then feature/promo with marimba for 
San Crist?bal de las Casas, Chiapas as a great place to visit; pause at 0330, 
then resuming program `F?rmula Financiera` with YL hostess. Dominant signal on 
770, but best with WBBM 767 IBOC nulled, which is pretty far off the angle from 
Monterrey. Supposedly cuts to only 1 kW at night, per WRTH.

We hear and see a lot of political advertising in Mexico, so when is the 
elexion? Timeanddate.com says there will not be a general elexion until July 1, 
2018 (6-yearly). What we have this year per Wikipedia means four more months of 
campaigning: ``Legislative elections are scheduled to be held in Mexico on June 
7, 2015. Voters will elect 500 deputies (300 by their respective 
constituencies, 200 by proportional representation) to sit in the Chamber of 
Deputies for the 63rd Congress`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-AM, slightly on hi side, Feb 6 at 0259, poor signal with 
pirate music, seemed to quit at 0309. No an

2015-02-06 Thread Glenn Hauser via Hard-Core-DX
** BOLIVIA. 5952.28 approx., Feb 7 at 0106, Radio Pio Doce with Andean music, 
very poor, but always circa this split frequency. Usually reported more like 
5952.44 as on Feb 1 by Bob Wilkner, but that would have required four more 40 
Hz clix on my DX-398 compared to WWV 5000.000 kHz. Yet my indirect method is 
likely less accurate (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11935-, Feb 7 at 0126, ``Rádio R-B Dois, AM 14-30`` ID. With BFO, 
compared to WWV 10 MHz and stepping 5 kHz up and down around 11935, this 
station is a smidgin on the lo side, probably less than 40 Hz. And now we know 
the gender of the ``2`` in its name, masculine; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11670, Feb 7 at 0047, surprised at how weak RHC is here in Spanish, 
MUF/fadeout? But // 11760 is still inbooming; how come?

As an outlaw station, RHC refuses to participate in HFCC, but Aoki shows 
alleged powers and azimuths. At this time, 11670 is listed as 100 kW ND, while 
11760 is 250 kW at 160 degrees, i.e. away from us much like 9955 WRMI (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9860, Feb 7 at 0044, R. Cairo, good signal but suppressed/distorted 
music modulation

9965, Feb 7 at 0045, R. Cairo, good signal, open carrier with whine

12035, Feb 7 at 0049, R. Cairo, good signal with loud but extremely distorted 
modulation, supposedly Spanish, and atop any CCI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST) 

** GREECE. 9935, Feb 7 at 0045, ERTOpen with severe motorboating and carrier 
wobble during music but good signal level, // unmarred 9420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, 
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Feb 7 at 0041, pirate music, with YL parlato at the 
moment, 0047 wild rock, 0050 ``X-L-R-8`` ID, more music; 0131 another XLR8 ID 
but this one by synthetic voice, pause and more music; good signal (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST

** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 7325-, Feb 6 at 1408, JBA carrier slightly on the low 
side. As before on Feb 2, this is during the half-hour window when strong CRI 
signal is taking a break, a sign that Wantok Radio Light, 1 kW, is active 
again. If not, what else is it? The WRTH National Radio update issued today 
says unequivocally that WRL is back, but I`ve yet to see any definite logs of 
it, not even by Ron Howard in California. As in DXLD 15-04:
Rick Barton in AZ presumed he heard it in Englishish on Jan 23
Ron Howard in CA could not hear even a carrier on Jan 24 or 25, but reminds us 
the frequency had been 7324.96 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU [and non]. 5980, Feb 7 at 0040, JBA carrier presumed R. Chaski; at 0100 
now seems like there are two JBA carriers, with BBCWS via UAE added, and traces 
of modulation. At 0101:36 one of them goes off, which would be Chaski. Now to 
try to track progression of approx. 5.83 seconds later per 24 hours, but the 
BBC QRM doesn`t facilitate it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UKRAINE [non]. 11580, Feb 7 at 0045, Ukrainian Radio, English via WRMI is 
still here at 0030 as well as presumed 2330, about a publishers` forum 
concerning culture vs propaganda, mentioning Ukraine. Altho I hear it ID as 
above at the opening, Alan Roe says it`s still R. Ukraine International on the 
one-hour webcasts; repackaged for WRMI? 11580 is sufficient here but not super 
like e.g. 7570 with Brother Scare (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1759 monitoring: confirmed Friday Feb at 2130.5 on 
WRMI 7570 and // now much stronger 15770. Next:
Sat 0730 & 1530 on Hamburger Lokalradio 7265-CUSB
Sat 1000 on WRMI 5850
Sun 0231 on KVOH 9975

Wed 2200 on WBCQ 7490v
Wed 2201 on Global 24 via WRMI 9395
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9395, Feb 7 at 0124, Global 24 via WRMI with Bach fill music yet 
again. Scheduled at this time per grid is `Jazz from the Left` at 01-04 
Saturdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5111.16 approx., Feb 7 at 0056, WBCQ was not on at 0040 but it is now 
with IS & ID loop, and shifted more than 1 kHz to the hi side of nominal 5110. 
9330 remains absent when it used to be on for `Allan Weiner Worldwide` from 
0100 UT Saturdays. 

That does start at 0100 with ``William Tell Overture`` but now I am listening 
to 7489.86 approx., apparently using the ex-9330 transmitter. Allan starts off 
saying he wants to concentrate on mechanical rather than electronical things 
this time, such as a 106-year old car he is restoring, as he buys and sells 
antique autos. (A week or two ago he said he was giving an antique firetruck to 
St. Augustine to restore). Yes, he`s still in Fla-land, temp in the 50s while 
it`s minus 6 F in Monticello and tnx to his staff there who keeps the station 
going. Soon interrupted by listener c
