** CANADA [and non]. 6030, UT Monday July 25 at 0548, DentroCuban pulse jamming
is still going despite R. Mart? silent period, but not being wall-of-noise,
another broadcaster is audible underneath. It and jam fade independently, so I
can tell the station is in an English adstring, with that faux-sense of urgency
we also hear on CFRX 6070, as if vital info were being conveyed, so
out-of-place on SW. Must be 100-watt CFVP Calgary here; 0551 mentions rodeo, I
think. Also has splash from 6020-CRI via Sackville. Canadians should protect
their private low-power stations much better from ACI and CCI (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake July 25:
11500, good at 1313
12900, very good at 1315
14700, JBA at 1319
15565, fair at 1323
None higher or lower heard in full scan from below 8 MHz to above 17. S.
Handler also reports 12900 as a new frequency today, altho I also had it on
July 7 and 24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. One RHC transmitter must be down: July 25 at 0547, 6010 English is
missing, and not on 11760 either (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See
also CANADA [and non]
** GERMANY. 17755, July 25 at 1328, rock music on defective transmitter,
pumping as carrier level also seems to shift, in very deep fades not
correlating with modulation peaks. 1330 3+1 timesignal, ID, YL talking with
presumed news in Persian, during which the pumping is less noticeable. 1340
definite R. Farda ID and back to music, still breaking up. HFCC says it`s 100
kW, 77 degrees from Lampertheim at 12-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. Some more sporadic-E analog TV DX, July 24, UT:
1832 on 4, fades in with soccer from SW, 10 kHz CCI; net-2. Also weak signals
on 2, 3, 5
1837 on 5, net-2 with soccer // 4
1912 on 2, scenes from a rodeo, I think, rather than a bullfight, with
soft-spoken narration; shortly see oval-2 bug UR with XHI-TV calls beneath.
Plus a streamer across screentop, maybe additional relay IDs? Only a glimpse
before faded. Ciudad Obreg?n, Sonora
1929 on 4, soccer from SSW, net-13. So two nets are running f?tbol on a Sunday
afternoon, but the big one is on net-2. 4 still in at 1949
1949 on 6, b?isbol, reminding me how seldom we see BB any more on the air in
USA rather than cable. Has an unfamiliar circular bug in UR; still at 2002
2001 on 4, the net-2 f?tbol is Copa Am?rica from Argentina, with Uruguay one of
the teams
2024 on 2, net-2 f?tbol is dominating the QRM
2045 on 2, only this is left, net-2 FB from SW
2225 on 2-6, weak signals, mostly FB
2234 on 4, f?tbol here much stronger than the other channels, indicating there
is not a 2 at same location
2242 on 4, some non-football, think I see an f bug = net-4
2354 on 3, game show, carrying people around studio; still at 2359 with round
bug UR (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U K [non]. 17640, July 25 at 1343, BBCWS much better than usual and
sufficiently listenable with report on opposition to wind power in NIMBY Wales.
S9+15 signal, and occasional quick lite echo during deep fades, presumably
long-path from Ascension if Seychelles stopped at 1300 as scheduled. Also has
lite generator(?) hum so typical of ASCENSION. 1350 goes from `One Planet` to
`From Our Own Correspondent`, fascinating report about Berlin by Steve Evans.
Listened until 1430 with `World Briefing`.
Latest HFCC shows this BBCWS usage of 17640, all in English:
05-07, 300 kW, 135 degrees from Woofferton UK since 12 July
07-08, 300 kW, 177 degrees from Cyprus since 19 July
07-13, 250 kW, 270 degrees from Seychelles (note overlap if correct)
13-17, 250 kW, 114 degrees from Ascension (no second site overlap)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1574 monitoring: UT Monday July 25 at 0300, Area 51 on
WBCQ 5110v-CUSB and webcast, RNI gives way to Radio Jennifer, not on schedule
for this date, so WOR starts late about 0309. Please stay tuned if you don`t
hear WOR at the scheduled time! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
