BRAZIL 4914.94 R. Difusora Macapa 026 Very nice "R. Difusora" ID at
0839:15 just seconds before 4915.026 pres. Daqui came on. Another ID amid
the QRM at 0840:55 . A few ads at 0855 including ment of Macapa. Really
nice signal and was hoping it would stay clear till at least 0900. (8 Oct.)

w/morning prayers and mentioning names (please pray for so and so??) and
Junin. 1009 another Huayno. 1013 canned echo anmnt by M over mx w/ment of
internacional. Faded a lot in just 5 min. 1015 live M returned w/TC and
anmnts. (8 Oct.)
UNID. 6160.06 is there again at 1020 check. CKZN still too strong even
notched out. Faded very badly by 1100, so suspect LA. A screenshot showing
the signal can be found at https://app.box.com/s/hi3wa9p4qgcrylbb8utg (8
Oct.)
PERU 6173.85v R. Tawantinsuyo 1021 M w/usual morning nx pgm. Ment of

hz quickly at 1022. Heavy slop QRM taking over towards 1030. A screenshot

PAPUA NEW GUINEA 3905 R. New Ireland Per Ron Howard tip, found around
0900 when Hams weren't on. Stronger at 1104 w/pres. NBC nx by W in between
Ham contacts. 1148 looks like the Ham net went off and getting W anncr
tlking. Ment of PNG. Still tlking all the way to 1200 when more Hams came
up. Could still hear mx at 1200 through the Hams. (8 Oct.)
MYNAMAR 7200.08 Myanmar R. 1112 playing Asian C&W mx, then usual W
anncr. Muffled audio. Nice canned anmnt at 1118. One Ham was tuning up on
7199, then another on 7201. Faded a lot by 1130. Really picked back up to
very nice level at 1202, but Hams right on top of it. (8 Oct.)
INDIA 7270 AIR Chennai 1204 distorted audio w/subcont. mx and W anncr.
Hams prevented copy of closing at 1215. MP3 audio file can be found at

ANDAMAN ISLANDS 4760.01 Definite signal here at 1147 but just not strong
enough to pull out any audio. (8 Oct.)
9 October 2013: Made the decision to go out to listen on the fact Mosoj
Chaski was good, Milne Bay and ENB were on and New Ireland was on yesterday,
and the disturbed condtitions can sometimes bring unusually good reception.
A few stations were better than usual, but conditions were only fair at
best. It was noisy also. 90mb PNGs were down in the mud. I could only
muster a little audio out of ENB. 3905 NBC New Ireland was absent. Hams
really blasted 41m. The highlight was definitely R. Quillabamba.
RX: Microtelecom Perseus SDR with ARR preamp.
ANT: 315' Beverage (BOG) at 0 degrees.
QTH: Pennsylvania State Game Lands #26 (up on the hill just above the

BRAZIL 4914.96 R. Difusora Macapa Just as I was about to hit the
button to start recording this fine signal around 0913, Daqui came on. (9
Oct.)
BOLIVIA 3310 R. Mosoj Chaski 0917 end of feature w/M host, and into
promo/info block including ID/promo anmnt by alternating M and W. Almost
all anmnts were alternaing M and W. Ments of corazon and Cochabamba.

promos/info anmnts w/first canned anmnt w/M and W ending w/chorus singing

(9 Oct.)
BRAZIL 4865.01 R. Verdes Florestas 0942 caught the IS followed by full
canned ID anmnt by M, and into live rel. vcl song by W. 0949 full canned ID

SPY 7320 Humongous signal from SP numbers station at 0955 wiping out
7295-7345. Was peaking at S9+60!!!!! (9 Oct.)
PERU 5024.94 R. Quillabamba 1004 found Rebelde had extremely weak
distorted audio and figured Quillabamba might be audible. Sure enough,
lowered the bandwidth way down, notched out Rebelde, and Quillabamba was
audible and intelligible. 1006 tlk by M in SP w/TC. 1008 nice Huayno. 1011
M returned w/TC given twice, song anmnt, and nice ID at least 4 times at
1011:50 and mensaje w/ment of provincia, commercial, TC twice again w/ment
of Quillabamba, and song anmnt. 1013-1016 another Huayno w/W vcl. 1016 M
DJ w/TC and song anmnt, ment nacional and internacional, Quillabamba, and
ending w/song amnt. 1019-1023 another Huayno w/group chorus. 1023-1025 M
returned w/TC but Rebeldes audio up now. 1025-1029 campo song w/man chorus
1028 Rebelde quiet again. 1029-1031 immediately into another song. 1031
brief deadair, then different M anncr DJ w/roomy sound to the audio and long
tlk w/ment of "buenos dias", "la voz camposina", and Quillabamba, programa,
Peru, 1037:40 possibly R. Quillabamba. 1039 another M anncer joined in
tlking past 1043. If Rebelde wasn't here, R. Quillabamba would probably be
as easy as R. Vision daily. MP3 audio file can be found at
https://app.box.com/s/epkawwblhpy50x3g6kjs And a screenshot of the signal
with Rebelde notched can be found at
