Subject: [HCDX] Logs from March 12-13
Message-ID: <4da5c7f7.2060...@gmail.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed
These logs are a bit dated, but I thought I would post them anyway. All
are gleaned from my Perseus recordings during a DXpedition to
Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park in western Tennessee on March 12-13,
2011. I have many more hours of recordings to peruse, and unless anyone
objects, may post more logs as time permits. The electrically quiet
conditions during the DXpedition make for more enjoyable DX on these
month old recordings than the QRN I usually have to deal with at the
home QTH.
4699.97 BOLIVIA R San Miguel, Riberalta, Mar 12 *0840 - OC until 0900,
s/on greetings, woman with echo. Latin vocals with occasional
announcement strings. Mention of R San Miguel ID finally noted at 1000,
ads, followed by religious talk by man, slowly fading after 1030. Noted
Mar 13 with a 0349 s/off, and a Sunday morning late 1107 s/on.
4716.69 BOLIVIA R Yura, Aillu Yura, Mar 12 *1008 - OC until 1012, back
to back rustic Andean vocals, locutora mentioning "Radio Yura, Aillu
Yura" between vocals at 1022 and 1024. Brief announcement by man at
1032, then back to rustic vocals, slowly fading after 1030, fair.Also
noted Mar 13 with 1005 s/on, poor.
4747.97 PERU R Huanta 2000, Huanta, Mar 12 *0954 - on with back to back
Andean vocals, man/woman with canned ID at 0959, string of lively ads
until 1015, pop vocal, live locutor after 1017, more mainly Andean
vocals with a few pop Latin vocals. Good signal, even better at 1100,
then fading. Also noted Mar 13 with 0103 s/off and 0952 s/on, although poor.
4749.95 INDONESIA RRI Makassar, Mar 13 1018 - signal rapidly rising
from carrier level with sunset Quran prayer (Makassar sunset 1017 UTC),
female announcer after 1021 between sub-continent and pop music. SCI at
1159, 3 time pips and news. After 2 hours of a steady but moderate
signal, peaking from 1215 to a truly outstanding level.
4774.95 PERU R Tarma, Tarma, Mar 12 *1001 - on with brief canned
announcement by man into back to back vocals. Finally locutor at 1056
with announcements, ID at 1059 with lots of echo, mention of Peru,
caught Radio Tarma mention at 1102 and back to music. Poor, CODAR,
improving slightly toward 1100 and then rapidly fading. No sign of them
Sunday morning, Mar 13.
4790 PERU R Visi?n, Chiclayo, Mar 12, 13 - not heard
4795.96 BOLIVIA R L?pez, Uyuni, Mar 12 *0831 - OC until 0833, back to
back Andean vocals, brief echo-heavy canned ID by man and woman at 0857
and back to vocals, canned ID again at 0926. Signal nicely peaking to a
fair level with locutor and locutora at 0956, full canned ID mentioning
frequencies, phone at 0957 and back to Andean vocals, brief canned ID by
woman between songs. Signal fading after 1030, CODAR. Also noted Mar 13
with a 0930 s/on, although weaker.
4804.98 BRAZIL R Dif do Amazonas, Manaus AM, Mar 12 *0942 - on
mid-sentence, lots of echo talk by man, full canned ID at 1000, more
echo announcements. Signal best a s/on, fair, slowly fading.
4814.98 ECUADOR El Buen Pastor, Saraguro, Mar 12 *1000 -s/on exactly at
1000, canned ID, brief greetings by locutor, Latin contemporary
Christian vocal, more talk until 1012, Andean vocals. String of canned
announcements from 1027 and back to Andean flavored vocals, then a long
monologue by man until 1051, more Andean vocals. Moderate signal
improving to fair after 1030, CODAR and also presumed utility blob
centered on 4812 kHz, both of which fading a bit from 1100. Station also
started fading after 1130. Also noted Mar 13 with exact 1000 s/on,
signal poor.
4815 BRASIL R Difusora, Londrina PR, Mar 12,13 - not heard.
4824.47 PERU La Voz de la Selva, Iquitos, Mar 12 *1114 - on with female

CODAR. Not noted Sunday morning, Mar 13.
4835.00 (t) PERU R Mara??n, Jaen, Mar 12 *1053 - on with live and
somewhat excited locutor, low key Andean instruments in background. Left
air for a few seconds at 1058, back a for a few seconds and then off
again at 1059. I believe I heard mention of "Red Mara??n", but LASWLOGS
lists this one on 4835.4v. Not heard Mar 13.
4845.23 BRAZIL R Cult. Ondas Tropicais, Manaus AM, Mar 12 *0955 - OC
until 1003, canned ID by man followed by choral NA, and another canned
ID at 1007 then back to back pop ballads. Fair to good signal strength,
only modest modulation, drifting up from an initial 4845.20 at s/on.
Heavy utility QRM. Noted Mar 13 with 0934 s/on, poor.
4865.06 BRAZIL R Verdes Florestas, Cruzeiro do Sul, AC, Mar 12 *0932 -

man inter-spaced with occasional brief music interludes, canned ID at

the hour, fading after 1040. Fair, het from weak unid on 4864.59. Noted
Mar 13 with 0051 s/off and Sunday morning 0959 s/on.
4885.02 BRAZIL R Clube do Par?, Belem PA, Mar 12 0735 - overnight Radio
Clube Madrugada music program, Bom Dia program from 0900. Full R Clube
do Par? canned ID caught at 1000. Great signal but over-modulated,
fading rapidly after 1000. Another station also here, weak, and only
about 10 Hz up so not causing much of a growl.
4915.02 BRAZIL R Anhanguera, Aragua?na TO, Mar 12 *0901 - ballad in
progress at s/on, full ID by man at 0902, more ballads, talk, pop
vocals. Good signal but extremely strong CODAR, fading rapidly from

4925.23 (t) BRAZIL R Educa??o Rural, Tef? AM, Mar 12 *0957 - OC until
1000, s/on announcements, all talk until fading. This would have been a
good signal except for huge CODAR, could not stay with it close enough
to hear an ID, so logging as tentative.

** ANTARCTICA. 15476, April 13 at 1257, 1325 and 1357, not even a carrier
detectable from LRA36 --- However, Bruce Winkelman in Tulsa was hearing it a
bit earlier, at 1206-1215, and L?cio Ot?vio Bobrowiec in Embu, SP, Brasil, the
day before at 2035-2102 --- so still testing, or what will their complete new
schedule be? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BONAIRE. 6250, April 13 at 0526-0527* song // much stronger signal on 6080,
which is NHK Spanish relay, with 6080 leapfrogging over 6165 RNW Dutch which
always goes off at 0527* sharp, thus eliminating the fulcrum. Still need to
look for the dozen other Bonaire leapfrogs at various other times as previously
computed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA [non]. 21490, surprised to hear gospel huxter in English, April 13 at
1331 with over-dramatic delivery, sounding almost like a parody, saying the
devil`s phone number is 666-4355 (=HELL, hee hee); 1334 outro with address in
Ohio given about five times: Ed Bousman, P O Box 511, Lynchburg OH 45142; ``God
is just a prayer away`` book of gospel bible lessons available free; 1337 Bible
Voice Broadcasting ID, Toronto address. 1338 says is to Eastern Europe; 1353
still in English, cut off at 1400* sharp as another gh is saying ``the apostles
. . .``
Must be brand new frequency, as have been checking 13m frequently around here
for Hamada 21480 --- see NIGERIA [non] --- and never noticed a trace of it
before today. In fact, not listed in latest HFCC. Seems BVB often runs
programming at odd times rather than hours or quarter-hours. Maybe a test. Fair
signal but less than Hamada via Wertachtal. Site for this? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake April 13: still nothing heard 8-18 MHz between 1305 and
1325. Propagation conditions still have not recovered from yesterday`s
geomagnetic storm at G1 level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6050, RHC English absent April 13 at 0536 check as DXers Unlimited is
starting on usual 6010, 6060, 6150. Can Arnie finally have found his heart and
eliminated 6050 QRM to HCJB starting before 0100? More likely another
transmitter failure, but we`ll see subsequently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** FRANCE. 21580, RFI, April 13 at 1329 with ad for Jeune Afrique,
hebdomadaire, cut off abruptly at 1330* (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 11875, April 13 at 0523, YL in English with ACI from WEWN
11870. Normally nothing heard here, but HFCC shows DW via SOUTH AFRICA,
0500-0530, 250 kW, 5 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA [non]. 21480, Hamada Radio International, April 13 at 1347 carrier
via Wertachtal, 1400 starts promptly today in Hausa.
The WRMI website schedule has now been updated for A-11:
9545 0530-0600 46 100 180 1234567
11970 0530-0600 46 100 180 1234567
21480 1400-1430 46 100 180 1234567
11945 1930-2000 46 100 180 1234567
But DX Mix News says the 0530 is on 11970 and 9610 ex-9545, and I am not sure
that all three are really 7 days a week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PORTUGAL. 21655, RDPI is the SSOB, April 13 before 1400, as 13m has
recovered somewhat, also Spain 21540, 21610 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SPAIN [non]. 11880 via COSTA RICA, April 13 at 1430, REE ``Noticias en
idiomas del mundo`` starts with Portuguese, so back to normal after previous
swap with French (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
