BOLIVIA - 4716.70, R. Yura (aka R. Yatun Ayllu Yura, Yura, San Antonio de
Quijarro). Decent opening to the Andes 3/1, noted thru high ambient noise
level
at 1025. YL tlks with patriotic theme, catching words "la libertad . . .
importancia . . . la patria . . .". Weak signal in high QRN but caught ID
1033,
"R Yura . . . las cinco de la manana y tres minutos . . . m.b. dias, amables
oyentes . . ." Sig fading down by 1040, about as late as I can ever hold onto
a
60 meter Bolivian in the Midwest. (R Perry, Illinois)
PERU - 4746.97, Radio Huanta Dos Mil, OM dj playing huaynos at 1022 on 3/1,
pretty good signal and my clue to hunt for other, more desired Andean stations
(see above). Came back to recheck at 1042 and caught nice ID by OM, "R Huanta
Dos Mil . . ." (R Perry, Illinois)
UNID - 5019.85, unid station noted 1045 during pause in Cuba 5025 modulation,
but rocked by splatter shortly thereafter when Cuba ended brief silent period.
YL tlks to the hour, then OM with what sounded like newscast. Couldn't make
content out very well at all, but tempo and 'shape' of speech sounded like it
could have been English. Would love to hear the Solomons again, after all
these
years, so will keep watching / working this fqy. (R Perry, Illinois)
INDONESIA - 9525.93v (to .96) - Voice of Indonesia. Fair sig poking hole in
the
band here, and wandering a bit. Was previously on the low side of 9525 and am
hearing it better now, in new location above 9525. (Listening in exalted
carrier SSB so was tracking fqy, from .93 at 1302 tune-in, up to .96 by 1314
and
then back down to .93.) At 1302 EE nx and comment by OM, 1307 musical burst
and into EE pgm narrated by YL. At 1314, after orchl burst, "This is the Voice
of Indonesia..." f/by an organ rift, and ID again at 1318. At 1320, rather
monotonous sparse gamelan band (very few instruments) gonging away, with YL
talking over, in spurts. At 1331, nice ID as she mentioned, "Greetings, where
ever you are! This is the Voice of Indonesia . . ." Then into a local musical
program with interesting fare -- music was a capella choral, from the far
eastern Indonesian islands -- therefore, a tip of the cap to Voice of
Indonesia. It is noteworthy, in this traditionally totally Javanese-dominated
country, to see the more far-flung areas getting some respect on the country's
international service. (R Perry, Illinois)

** ALASKA. KNLS usually puts up its next-season schedule well in advance, but
as of March 3, A-11 still not found on its English website nor Chinese, but it
is on the Russian, so the English hours are to be: 0800 on 11870, 1000 on
11870, 1200 on 9920, 9655, 1400 on 9655. These plans often don`t come true due
to continuing transmitter problems and schedule rejiggering (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST) See ROMANIA
** ANTARCTICA. 15476, another no-show day for LRA36, March 3 checked at 1344
(when Turkey was JBA on 15480), 1420, 1430, 1533 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake March 3:
6030, at 1320 in usual mix with other jamming and Taiwan.
10300, poor at 1339. No 8400 audible now or later, nor any other FD in full
bandscan to 1430 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. Is the DentroCuban Jamming Command super-malicious, or just
incompetent? We continue to hear jamming on frequencies when there is nothing
hostile ``needing`` jamming. Besides heaps of noise on WRMI 9955 when it is
not carrying exile shows or even anything in Spanish ---
9885, March 3 at 0450, VOA English news to Africa, with heavy pulse jamming,
roughly equal level so VOA is more or less readable if you are motivated to put
up with this annoyance. Site is listed as S?o Tom?, tho I could have mistaken
it for Greenville which may be the back-up. HFCC shows 0300-0430 Botswana,
0430-0600 ST, 0600-0700 South Africa (and Iran also 9885, eastward in Dari at
0300-0630, unnoted here).
This jamming is heavy pulsing, not wall-of-noise, which could be blamed on one
rogue jammer site in Cuba which just keeps going inexorably or ignores the
latest requirements. Rate is 3 pulses per second. 9885 is also the VOA (not
Mart?) Spanish frequency from Greenville in mornings and evenings only.
(Checked again at 1330 when `Buenos D?as, Am?rica` is starting, 9885 is free of
jamming. Look for VOA Spanish, AM & PM to shift one UT hour earlier March 13
for the convenience of W?shington, certainly not listeners abroad, except Cuba
which follows US DST dates like a lapdog.)
Back to 0450: same 180/minute rate pulse jamming on 9725, but not synchronized
with 9885. Nothing to be jammed here now, used only at other times by R. Mart?.
I also heard same pulsing weakly and briefly circa 9640, a spur, mixing product
or receiver overload? Hmmm, 9640 is an RHC frequency for `Mesa Redonda` circa
2330.
At 0500, pulsing on WRMI 9955 was at slightly faster rate, stopped at 0501
while non-pulsing jamming continued. At 0506, 7365 deliberately jammed at 3 per
second too, a R. Mart? frequency earlier. At 0630, WRMI 9955 had pulse jamming
instead of WON, vs. R. Praga in Spanish, and the others were off, except 7365
at 0651 was still pulsing against nothing. Also see USA: WRMI.
Meanwhile, what are the RadioCuba broadcasting transmitters doing? At
0453-0456*, S9+22 open carrier on 9770, presumably end of RHC. At 0510, RHC
English: 6010 open carrier with hum; 6050 OK except for ACI from Spain 6055;
6060 being weaker has heavier ACI from 6055. Whose bright idea was it to put
two RHC transmitters 5 kHz from the big signal from Spain? I bet I know. 6150
undermodulated as usual and also squealing. Spanish on 6120 lo-fi and muffled.
By 0538, they have managed to apply English modulation to 6010, and 6150 is no
longer squealing for the moment (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 13855, March 3 at 1340, fair with flutter, in Chinese with
birds tweeting and traditional instruments. It`s just one of countless CRI
broadcasts via Kashgar to Europe, 13-14, 308 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 21780, March 3 at 1351, VG S9+15 signal in German, SSOB by
far compared to 21505, 21540, 21550-also DW, 21570, 21610, 21695. Item about US
trade deficit, then 1357 Larry King clip to voice-over translation, extolling a
new art museum in M?xico funded by multi-giganaire Carlos Slim; 1359 DW ID and
jingles, offering e-mail newsletter kostenlos, to 1359:30*.
Had not noticed this big signal before, probably because in morning
bandscanning upward I don`t usually get to top of 13m before 1400. If it`s DW,
it can`t be from Germany! Expected it to be a tropical relay, but listed as 500
kW, 85 degrees from Rampisham UK at 12-14! Wonder if they were on a NAm antenna
by mistake; or a propagational fluke? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUAM [and non]. 5765-USB, March 3 at 1323, AFN is on today with talk. Note
that WTWW plans to add this frequency by A-11, until 1300. That will blow away
AFN at night, even in the Pacific (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) KSDA:
see USA [non]
** INDONESIA. 9526-, VOI, quick chex during 1300 English hour March 3 had VG
signal, but heavy accent and those dratted IADs they will do nothing to fix. I
see others reporting this station without even mentioning the IADs; how can
they not notice them? Retune just before 1500 to hear if we would get a bonus
bit of broken English after Indonesian, but not to be today, 1459:10*, while
9680 RRI continued (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, March 3 from 1435 tune-in, wonderful Kurdish music,
occasional very brief announcements, from V. of Mesopotamia, via UKRAINE, and
always fluttery until 1500* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** LIBYA. 21695, March 3 at 1401, drumming, VOAftGJ ID, sign-on, fair, stuff
about masses. Mike Barraclough observes that if there is anything about the
current situation, it`s usually at the beginning of the broadcast. Closest they
came today was hilife song with oft-repeated refrain, ``What Shall We Do?``
mostly in English but at 1410 morphing into another language before abrupt
stop. 1412 ID again, ``overview of the African Union, a strategic achievement
since 9-9-99``. Much better here than // 17725 just a carrier, which remained
the case at further chex, altho by 1433 ID, 21695 had weakened (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. Re 9765-DRM, heard March 2: RNZI confirms it was from
them by mistake. Gone again when checked March 3 at 1325, just REE Spanish via
Costa Rica on AM, item about overweight-rate among Spaniards (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ROMANIA. 9655, March 3 at 1500, IS and opening in Arabic with Romanian
accent; no sign of co-channel KNLS Alaska [q.v.] in English which in B-10 has
been on 9655 at 1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN [and non]. 9675, REE via COSTA RICA, 0455 March 3 VG with nice Andean
music, and not // 9620 direct which has already switched to sign-off routine,
but music soon ends anyway on 9675 for announcements. Big signal muscling aside
WYFR 9680. However, by 0503, WYFR 9680 with music is making heavy interference
on 9675. I figured it had made an antenna change, but no, listed as 315 degrees
OKward both before and after 0500, while 9675 is 340 degrees, also USward. It
would be nice if these two could agree to be at least 10 kHz apart. 9680 was so
strong it mixed with local KGWA-960 to appear on 10640, at least within the
FRG-7. See also NEW ZEALAND.
15170, Thursday March 3 at 1342, W&W in Basque, so another day this REE weekday
1330+ service is not a no-show. Via COSTA RICA here.
15585, March 3 at 1535, poor signal in French had me head-scratching, until I
found nothing but Spain is on 15585 from 09 to 17, and this was amid the token
two-sesquiminute French news capsule at 1534 weekdays, to be followed by
English; 60 degrees from Noblejas across Europe but missing France directly
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. Refurbishment of both VOT sites in last few years, ?akirlar and
Emirler, improved power and modulation for a while but once again things have
deteriorated, e.g.: 12035, scheduled for English to Europe 313 degrees, thus
also USward, March 3 at 1336 has a very weak carrier and no modulation
detectable, vs much stronger Cuba 12040 --- and 12035 is the more favorable
frequency for us than // 11735 completely undetectable. Have not been able to
listen to this broadcast for months.
Tentative A-11 English schedule looks a lot like A-10, everything one UT hour
earlier, mostly on same old frequencies, including 9830 despite the RTTY!
1230 15450 west, 15520 east
1830 9785
2030 7205
2200 9830
0300 6165 and new to NAm 9515 --- an ancient Ankara frequency when I first
started monitoring 50+ years ago, resulting in one of my earliest QSLs. It
appears that the ?akirlar site is out of service, everything from Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGST)
** U K [and non]. 9460, March 3 at 0455 news in English, fair signal, not sure
what and did not recognise this as a BBC frequency, but listed this hour only
in unnecessarily fragmented scheduling, 100 kW, 335 degrees via SOUTH AFRICA to
WAf, also USward. CRI is also in English eastward from Beijing for Japan.
11830, March 3 at 1506, surprised to hear BBC in the clear starting
`Assignment` from Kabul, but WYFR cuts back on at *1507 with Chinese in
progress, aimed right at us, 315 degrees; nevertheless, BBC still audible
under, 500 kW, 95 degrees via Rampisham (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
See also GERMANY [non]
** U S A [and non]. 17740, March 3 at 1416, big open carrier, no doubt another
tune-up by Greenville, 1418 brief tonetest, long before it`s really
broadcasting VOA at 1700. See also CUBA [and non].
9760, March 3 at 1500 tune-in for VOA news on the hour, as this VG signal via
Tinang, PHILIPPINES is supposed to resume, but nothing there until abrupt *1502
joining news in progress. This happens frequently, a demerit against our
international broadcaster.
But the poor engineers are probably not to blame, having to retune an
unreliable transmitter from another frequency, switch antennas, without enough
time to do so. If it`s like other IBB sites, probably overworking staff with
not enough personnel on duty to accomplish everything required in a minute or
less, hoping they will resign in frustration and thus reduce costs without the
bother of firing them. The alternative is to cut off the previous transmission
earlier, which might be preferable. Or change the scheduling overall with an
adequate built-in break. But who understands these operational requirements
back in Washington? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. World of Radio on WBCQ shifted or shorted? So did anyone hear the
entire WOR broadcast on WBCQ 7415 today [Wednesday March 2]? I couldn`t get the
whole thing, but at 2230 check, #1554 was playing OK. However at recheck 2240
there was dead air until sign-off announcement at 2243. I think it may have
started as early as 2211, and thus would have ended by 2240 if played to
completion. `Amos `n` Andy`, now scheduled for 2200, as I recall, used to run
shorter than 15 minutes. Anyhow, to be safe, we`ll change the schedules to show
2211 (Glenn Hauser, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1554 on WRMI: UT Thu March 3 at 0445 check, 9955 is
wall of noise jamming. Tnx a lot, Arnie! See also CUBA [and non]. Next airing
1600 Thursday confirmed on webcast. 2200 probably jammed. Try 0430 UT Friday on
WWRB 2390 and/or 5050; 2130 Friday on WWCR 7465 for this and one more week
until shifting to 2030 on 15825 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5755, WTWW, March 3 at 0637, carrier is warbling a bit vs BFO during
very heavy PPP modulation. I`ve noticed this before, but not all the time. I
suspect it depends on the overmodulation level.
George McClintock updated me Feb 25: two more transmitters are being installed
at the same time, a bad idea. #2 may start by mid-to-end of March; #3 maybe in
April. Depends on weather delays, installing rhombic antenna poles, etc. #3
antenna was not yet up due to rain.
Planned additional A-11 frequencies to 5755 and 9479 are: 5080, 5765, 9990,
12100, some of them aimed south (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13570, WINB, March 3 at 1509, Rod Hembree thinking he`s clever with a
`Star Trek` take-off promoting his Radio 2:11; muffled and more distorted than
usual on VG strength but unsteady carrier. 9405 checked after 0500 was a JBA
carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 5985, March 3 at 0516 huge open carrier from Okeechobee;
recheck at 0539, now modulating in Chinese, which is YFR from 0500 in Mandarin
to NAm, not RTI. See also SPAIN [and non].
15185, fluttery March 3 at 1421, Harold Camping, thank God for his easily
recognizable voice, but beyond that we have no idea where this YFR relay comes
from; must be new, unlisted anywhere. A companion to equally unknown 15485
heard March 1 at 1522. BTW, WYFR A-11 schedule is in, showing it expires 30 Oct
2011 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 15440, March 3 at 1425, ``Adventist World Radio`` mentioned
several times but not in English, also mentions Punjabi, address in Hyderabad,
Pakistan. More English words required in further contact info to 1428*.
However, this is listed as Urdu, 1400-1430, 300 kW due east from Moosbrunn,
AUSTRIA, so which language is it, really?
11955, March 3 at 1505, S Asian songs, sounding romantic, but probably
alabadic, since this is AWR listed really in Punjabi via Wertachtal, GERMANY.
15495, March 3 at 1534, S Asian music, announcement, listed as KSDA Guam, 285
degrees in Marathi; could it be long path? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 13845, WWCR inbooming March 3 at 1530 contrary to usual marginal
signal, but 15825 was JBA. Assuming both were transmitting at full power, a
stark divide with Es-enhanced MUF somewhere in that 2-MHz gap. This often
signals Es too from KJES 11715, even tho in opposite direxion, but no sign of
it today, suspect off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 720, WGN, UT Thursday March 3 at 0529, looking for `Extension 720`,
but instead, stupid sports talk! Since E720 shifted an hour later to 04-06 UT
weeknights it should be pre-empted less for ballgames, so I am apprehensive it
has finally been canceled as too intellexual for commercial radio. Whew,
checking website:
http://www.wgnradio.com/shows/ext720/
``(Wednesday, March 2) No program tonight -- preempted by Hockey. But we will
be back tomorrow with a great panel of Middle-east experts and strategic
scholars as we focus in on the popular revolts in Libya, Yemen, Bahrein,
Jordan, etc.``
Anyway, WGN was in its usual 720 battle with Spanish and SAH from KSAH in San
Antonio, making weblistening preferable if possible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** VIETNAM. 12020, March 3 at 1338 talk in English about Russia, heavy ACI from
12015 RTTY. I sure thought it was VOR until I found it is not currently
scheduled on this frequency at all, but VOV is, in English at 1330, per Aoki,
57 degrees so favorable for NAm (English also at 1000, 1130, 1230, 1500, 2330,
some of them on 177 degrees instead) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17000, March 3 at 1347, 2-way SSB, seems in Spanish, demodulated
by the MHz birdie on the FRG-7 without switching on BFO. Could be a legit
maritime contact rather than poacher/narco (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST) ###

Christchurch [New Zealand]
Radio Services Status #3
__________________________
Access to the CBD radio studios of many Christchurch radio
broadcasters continues to be denied by the civil defence authorities
10 days after the devasting earthquake hit this New Zealand city of
350,000.
Radio New Zealand, The Radio Network and Radioworks all have studios
within the cordoned off zone and engineers are still working through
city buildings to determine whether they are safe for temporary or
permanent access and use. Considerable damage to buildings housing
the studios is likely.
NewstalkZB has been carrying its news coverage across 1017,1098 and
1503 AM and 106.5 AM [replacing Hauraki Amp'd]. Their main mast at
Orohuia has reportedly sunk in the ground from liquifaction and they
are radiating a much weaker signal from a long wire temporary aerial.
RDU 98.5 has returned to the air from temporary studios whilst Tahu
90.5 now refers to Christchurch as Quake City and has been heard
carrying iwi network programs. Pulzar 105.7 FM which lost its studios
in the September 2010 earthquake is broadcasting automated music
programs only.
Local community access Plains FM has studios at the Christchurch
Polytech campus in the CBD and continues using its transmitter to
broadcast the BBC World Service from London as an emergency measure.
Radio Ferrymead 1413AM is now back on air today with automated
programming for the coming four days. They sustained moderate damage
to studios and buildings. Volcano Radio 88.5 in Lyttelton continues
amazing service to the shattered port area with music and local
community and emergency announcements.
Destroyed or damaged local LPFM stations now include One-Eyed FM
[Aranui], Beachbreak FM [South New Brighton] and The Wave [Sumner]
whilst Burwood Community Radio near badly damaged QEII Park is
reportedly silent.
The Radio Heritage Foundation, in association with Classic Gold
Radio, is currently working on plans to bring a fully equipped mobile
radio studio to broadcast directly from New Brighton to the nearby
eastern suburbs in the coming days. Donations of funds and help on
the ground would be greatly appreciated.
Power Hits Radio 87.8 in St Albans and Akaroa FM [both Christchurch
City] have been carrying earthquake coverage from the emergency
nationwide local network anchored by Classic Gold Radio in Winton,
near Invercargill, in association with The Flea in Auckland and
Splash FM on Waiheke Island.
The full network taking this feed is Classic Gold Radio [Winton],
Classic Gold Radio [Invercargill], Radio Cromwell, Radio Mosgiel
[Dunedin], Radio Twizel, Power Hits Radio [Christchurch], Akaroa FM
[Christchurch], Hutt FM 106.1 [Wellington], Rag FM [Raglan], The Flea
88.2 Devonport/107 Takapuna [Auckland] and six hours daily streaming
via the Mader Radio Network [USA].
The status of new community station Compass FM 104.9 FM in Rangiora
is unclear, it had been testing recently and its studios and
facilities are available but don't appear to be utilised at present.
Radio New Zealand Sound Archives are located in the off-limits Radio
NZ studio building and operations are currently suspended. The status
of the audio and other heritage collections housed there is unknown.
A full listing of Christchurch area AM and FM stations is online at
www.radioheritage.com and is regularly being updated. It's at the
home page under the header 'Christchurch Earthquake 2011'.
