World Music Radio (WMR) commenced broadcasting on 15805 kHz on December 25th
2018 and has now been on the air daily (well almost) since then. Now today
is the final day of daily broadcasting. As from tomorrow WMR will only be on
the air on 15805 kHz Saturday and Sundays. 

 

Broadcasting hours are 0700-2000 UTC and the power is only 0.2 kW making it
a difficult ? and irregular - catch. But the signal does get out. Right now
(08 UTC) WMR can be heard in Russia (Ural and perhaps into Siberia) and in
Southern Europe. In a couple of hours the signal can be picked up in Brazil
and around 13-16 UTC good reception has been experienced almost daily in
Eastern North America on 15805. Propagation after local sunset in Denmark is
apparently rather ?sketchy?. Only once the signal made a short skip
propagation into Ireland and Western UK.  Would be interesting to learn if
the signal can be received ? anywhere ? after 16 or 17 UTC. 

 

Reception reports are welcome to w...@wmr.dk and will usually be QSLed within
a month.

** CHINA [and non]. 6180, Jan 6 at 1452, Firedragon jamming vs 
Chinese, i.e. RTI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13505, 13570, 13635, 13765, 13830, 13897, 13960, 14028-trace, 
very approx. broadband FM spurs, none of them clear, from RHC-AM 
13700, Jan 6 at 1429. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

13700, Jan 6 at 1445, RHC `En Contacto` has Arnie saying that we are 
almost to solar min by summer near zero sunspot count, forecast to 
start rising in Sept as high as 30 by yearend when SW reception should 
be much improved. His info probably comes from Yanqui SWPC (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Several more unID logs here, first as a conversation with Alexa:

and a rather grotesque SSTV image, but no IDs (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6949.9, Jan 5 at 2218, JBA talk, pirate? Barely // 
1390v KCRC local with CBS Sports Radio. However, some pirates are 
reported as 6950-USB around this time: Voice of Uncle Don:

Ivanov, Bulgaria: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 
6190 CUSB, Jan.5:

0731-0800 6190 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg CeEu English Sat, good signal``

Also confirmed Saturday January 5 after 2200 on WRMI 9955, good at new 
time (5950 // 9395 with music).

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 6 at 0428 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, 
Wentzville MO, about 10 minutes into, so started circa 0418, S9+10/20.

Also confirmed Sunday January 6 at 0857 the 0830 on WRMI, yes on all 
three frequencies: 5850, 5950, 7730, from VG to F to G. (only 5950 
stays on after 0900, with gospel huxter).

Also confirmed by Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria: ``GERMANY, Reception of World 
of Radio via HLR on 7265 CUSB, Jan 6:

** U S A [and non]. 9955, Sunday Jan 6 at 1454, AWR Wavescan during 
logs from Japan, poor with ACI from stronger 9960, which is PALAU with 
Furusato no Kaze. Aoki/NDXC attempts to list every single program on 
9955, but misses 1430 Sun Wavescan, instead ex-Word for the World. 

And on Wed at 1430-1445 & Tue at 1445-1500, among others, Famagusta 
Gazette! which has been gone for a year or more? I haven`t run across 
it in a long time. WRTH 2019 pp 467-468 under CYPRUS still shows a 
total of 11 weekly times for FG Radio on 9955 or 5950. 

But WRMI sked grid has only 4 when searched on FG: Wed 2100 on 7780 & 
5950, unlikely; Thu 0245 on 9955; Thu 2245 on 9955; Fri 1015 on 5950. 
Any of these need to be confirmed, and whether they involve current 
news or stale replays, evergreens, as has happened before.

WRTH notes: ``Weekly prgr with Europe related news, linked with the 
(now discontinued) online news portal `Famagusta Gazette``` (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15809.983, Jan 6 at 1435, JBA carrier, must be the very 
irregular WTWW-3, typical frequency offset, on a very bad day for 19m 
propagation, as even the three Cubans are weakened and spurless. I 
struggle to hear enough mod to match it to 9475-, WTWW-1, which has a 
big echo: double-audio input of SFAW talk, unusual, S9+20/30. At 1500, 
9475 has gone off! Back on in a minute with single audio; but why was 
it necessary to turn off the transmitter to fix it? I keep trying to 
match and finally do so during  singing at 1503 as I measure the 
frequency.

Then I find that Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria has been getting 15810 much 
better: ``Test transmission of WTWW-3 from 1400 on 15810, fair to 
good. Nothing from World Music Radio Denmark on 15805 -- 73! Ivo 
Ivanov`` at 1443 UT Jan 6. (And SHN says this is the final daily 
broadcast on 15805, to be weekends only) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 930, Jan 6 at 0708, WKY OKC Spanish ESPN-D is getting 
overtaken by some C music, on my E-W antenna almost perpendicular to 
OKC, fades just in time for ID(?). Not too many C format 
possibilities in NRC AM Log: KAFF AZ, KRKY

[HCDX] World Music Radio 15805 kHz

[Stig Hartvig Nielsen]

 

World Music Radio (WMR) commenced broadcasting on 15805 kHz on December 25th
2018 and has now been on the air daily (well almost) since then. Now today
is the final day of daily broadcasting. As from tomorrow WMR will only be on
the air on 15805 kHz Saturday and Sundays. 

 

Broadcasting hours are 0700-2000 UTC and the power is only 0.2 kW making it
a difficult – and irregular - catch. But the signal does get out. Right now
(08 UTC) WMR can be heard in Russia (Ural and perhaps into Siberia) and in
Southern Europe. In a couple of hours the signal can be picked up in Brazil
and around 13-16 UTC good reception has been experienced almost daily in
Eastern North America on 15805. Propagation after local sunset in Denmark is
apparently rather ‘sketchy’. Only once the signal made a short skip
propagation into Ireland and Western UK.  Would be interesting to learn if
the signal can be received – anywhere – after 16 or 17 UTC. 

 

Reception reports are welcome to w...@wmr.dk and will usually be QSLed within
a month.
