Repport from: 4190 Edward Higgins H8Y 3M9 Pierrefonds (Mtl's West Island), QC Equipment: Sanyo MCD-S830 w/ ferrite bar antenna Sangean CST-818 connected to the encoding cable which was it's self connected to the long-wire in our interior yard MW: ~ 525 kHz - noted yesturday (FEB 18 2350 UTC) on the low-end of the AM dial the beacon I thought was ZLS in Stella Maris, Bahamas, but it looped E/W, so apparently a domestic NDB. (Chiochiu-QC) 760 COLOMBIA, HJAJ, RCN Cadena Basíca, Barranquilla FEB 17 0215 - w/ an interview. Good to fair, dominant w/ weaker residual and nulled WJR Detroit. SIO 444 (would had SIO 455 without the weak residual WJR !). (Chiochiu-QC) 890 CUBA, CMDZ, Radio Progreso, Chambas FEB 18 0130 - ID and time-check which sounded more like diez treinta minutos rather than nueve treinta minutos (9:30 PM, UTC-4). Fair w/ residual WLS Chicago. SIO 332. (Chiochiu-QC) SW: 15300 FRANCE, RFI vers l'Afrique, Issoudun FEB 18 1207 - news about stormy and windy snow weather in Torino and about the bird's virus which apparently hit a duck in London. SINPO 45533 and SINPO 25222 with noises and fading around 0900 EST (1300 UTC). Local-like (SINPO 5) today between 1155 and 1202 UTC. Surprisingly and fortunately, I found a way to connect the encoding cable which puts quite some gain on 15 MHz. (Chiochiu-QC) Yesturday, had the pleasure to visit two friends and helped with a newly purchased Grundig radio. I explained to him on what frequencies the Sun and the D layer block signals during the day-time, what frequencies to try and I also gave to them the Real-to-Real antenna we purchased from CCrane which is much better than the Grundig antenna that came with the radio. Even though my practical knowledge of physics and mathematics is almost nil, I made schemas of how the low and high frequencies workd uirng the day-time and at night. Didn't had the Passport to World Band Radio with me, but I know from my memory we heard Africa Numéro Un 15475, RTM 15375, RFI 153000 and two other stations, Saudi Arabia and an US religious station that we tuned to. They were surprised I knew from my memory the channel of Gabon-15475. I've also got to do some breakdancing, but that's another story. I just looked up over Google and found out Isla Margarita is at 10'31 degrees North. I don't think is it in the skip-zone of TEP. In fact, Felipe, a DXer from Chile withch loves FM DXing, heard, for exemple, 89.9 Bogotá, which is around 5 degrees North, from central Chile, so I could probably ome Brazilian, Paraguayan and southern Peruvian like Lima and Cuzco 88-108 mHz Stereo DX on the Sangean CST-818 which is the best portable FM receiver I have at this time. I talked to a friend at school, from Colombia but he know some Venezuelan stuff too, and learned on YV islands like Isla Margarita, there are less political problems. So, finally, we'll get to visit Isla Margarita. The time couldn't be better for TEP, since I HAVE SCHOOL ON THE FIRTST WEEK of March and it is obviously clear that the SECOND week of March, when I do have the 1-week holiday, is MUCH closer to the EQUINOX, when TEP FM DX is REALLY POSSIBLE. After a season long of MW, with some SW, I need to get a break from low-Fi DX and move to the Hi-Fi DX stuff. There is some distortion, but there is much more music on FM than on AM even in Latin America (altough the AMers are less into total news/talk format, than in US) and since double-hop Es on the FM band is VERY rare and UNLIKELY, this my best chance of hearing Latin American FM DX. An opportunity like this is hard to miss ! It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get TEP for a northerner like me. Also, since despite the relative pauverty, Latin America is MUCH prosper than Africa and Asia, digital FM and satellite may implant much faster than in, say, Mozambique which means if I get the chance to travel again between 5 and 35 degrees either side of the equator around the equinoxes in a couple of years, all the DX may be gone then. May the good DX be with you and have a great coming week !

Report from: Bogdan Alexandru Chiochiu 4190 Edward Higgins H8Y 3M9 Pierrefonds (Montreal's West Island), Quebec, Canada Equipment: Sanyo MCD-S830 with ferrite bar antenna Sangean CST-818 with long-wire antenna in our interior yard MW: Pan-American DX: 600 CUBA, CMKV, Radio Rebelde, Urbano Norris JAN 10 0403 - Feel asleep listening to this one often very good and fighting WICC in Bridgeport with Spanish ballads and a bolero, woman with talk about woman issues and about communism. She saied that when everyone (psychiatres, teachers, sellers, etc.) would be equal, it will help to build the society. (Obviously, this is not true, since it's the difference, not the equality that makes one motivated in life and apt to success - Bogdan). (Chiochiu-QC) 670 CUBA, CMBA, Radio Rebelde, Arroyo Arrenas JAN 10 0402 - Almost as strong as 600 but with much more distortion due to fadings. This one is a pest for me, because it makes Radio Rumbos a difficult catche and mostly impossible to enjoy. (Chiochiu-QC) 750 VENEZUELA, YVKS, RCR, Caracas, DF JAN 7 2335 - Fair reception with WSB partly nulled with YV baseball. +JAN 09 0330 - w/ talk about the biography of a poet. Good and completly atop channel at this time. (Chiochiu-QC) 760 COLOMBIA, HJAJ, RCN Cadena Basíca, Barranquilla JAN 09 0327 - Ads and several IDs. Poor and fadey. (Chiochiu-QC) 780 unIDs (prob. YVNM in Coro, Falcón and a second Latin) JAN 09 0336 - Threshold with Tropical music followed by an ID that was almost completly burried in next-to-adjacent local CJAD-800 splatter; the only word readable was AM and AM is often used on Radio Coro so almost certainly them. What was interesting that I had what seemed to be a second Latin station here from which I couldn't copy nothing. The most likely possibility would be Ecos del Torbes, YVOD. Are they still actives on MW ? I know they left SW a few years ago, sadly. (Chiochiu-QC) 890 CUBA, CMDZ, Radio Progreso, Chambas JAN 09 0342 - Nice tropical tune followed by ID. Quite good and for a minute or so at 0344 was even very good. However, not only my Sanyo MCD-S830 powerhouse is less sensitive in the 800s and 900s, but it seem as well MUCH less selectif. On all the other channels adjacent to NYC powerhouses, I only get splash and / or het, but around 890 I get true overspills with comprehensible but distorted content from WCBS-880. (Chiochiu-QC) 1140 unID (poss. the Isla Margarita station) JAN 10 2203 - Spanish talk very weak and very intermittent. WRVA and a day-timer were the only usable signals here. 1140 is probably my best bet for the Nueva Esparta estado of Isla Margarita. But, Cuba and WQBI are possibles too, so I'm not even labelling this one as tentative. (Chiochiu-QC) SW: 5030 BURKINA FASO, Radio Burkina (also IDing as RTB !), Ougadougou JAN 10 2124 - FF announcer presenting a nice mixture of Afropop, soukous and RB until 2156 when I hear some IS followed by newscast at 2200 with political news. SIO 342 with fadings and minor growl from a computer in the neighborhood. Around 2202, powerline QRM begun to be heard at which point, I switched to AM broadcast band listening on my Sanyo MCD-S830. (Chiochiu-QC) 6140 COLOMBIA, HJCU, Radio Lider, Santafé de Bogota JAN 09 2344 - w/ romantic Spanish music. The signal was quite good, but with lots of splatter from 6135. SIO 311, since the splatter was intense and tiring. It was the first time I tuned to Radio Lider during the evening ! (Chiochiu-QC) First of all, a very good news arrived yesturday via the Italian list playdx: the A Index is 0; that means, if it continue to be very low or even nil, that excellent east-west high-latitude paths can be achieved on MW. It also means I should try to get Norway-1314, if it continues that way. Secondly, I really don't understand why a radio that is capable of splitting Croatia-1134, Spain-585 and ZIZ-555 is getting distroted, but GOOD WCBS audio blending over Progreso. A filter should work the same around the band or not ? I'd really appreciate an explanation, since it is really intriguing me. It is sad, since it makes Romania-855 out of question for me. What are the other Romnian outlets I could have at least a slim chance of picking up here in Montreal, on MW ? I know Mark Connelly did not even put Romania among Your first 50 Trans-Atlantic countries... However, I'm really happy with the possibles Spanish signals on 780 and 1140, channels dominated usually by strong Radio Coro (well, at least quite regularly) and WRVA in Richmond, VA. I couldn't get an ID, but this season wasn't too productive in term of LA DX on MW so far. I haven't listened to too many new Latins in 2005-2006 so far. At least, my radio and it's ferrite bar antenna is good enough for some limited TA DX during decent conditions. Of course, if everything is all right, I may have a Drake R8B within the next months. As you can see I haven't reported Caicos-530, but the program content
