** BRAZIL. 11815, July 8 at 0548, Brazilian W&M DJ conversation, poor with deep
fading. Hadn`t heard R. Brasil Central here in quite a while. No other
significant ZY signals on 25m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. RCI has reduced the length of its Portuguese and Spanish broadcasts,
still with several repeats, and so it has with English. A few days ago I was
listening to `The Link` around 2050 on 17735/15330/15235, when Ian Jones came
back from vacation and mentioned that there is no longer a second hour of that
program.
On July 5, Andy Reid in Ontario found BBC instead of RCI on the 3 am hour of
CBC Radio One. On July 7, Ricky Leong in Alberta still heard `The Link` on
CBCR1 during the 2 am-local hour. And the 50% reduxion is confirmed:
``Well, Glenn, straight from the horse's mouth:
http://www.rcinet.ca/english/program/the-link/home/
"The Link is an hour-long daily radio show aimed at connecting people to Canada
and Canada to the world." So there you have it! Ricky``
RCI has put up all-new schedules effective June 27 at
http://www.rcinet.ca/english/schedule/
IIRC, the second hour of `The Link` was even more for domestic consumption than
the first and wasn`t on SW anyway since the 2-hour block on 31m in the mornings
to NAm was dropped some months ago
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. Firedrake July 8, before 1300:
14700, fair at 1234
13920, fair at 1236
12980, fair-good at 1236
12270, fair-good at 1237
11500, poor at 1238
10300, poor at 1240
After 1300:
17705, at 1313 tentatively FD mixed in with AIR Chinese, CNR1 and BSKSA Arabic;
after 1315 only BSKSA left
15545, very poor at 1317
14700, very good at 1317
13920, fair-good at 1317
13850, good at 1318, but heavy ACI from WWCR 13845 with Es boost
12025, 1319, JBA vs something talking
10300, poor at 1320
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [non]. At various chex during the day on July 7, and maybe July 6,
there was no jamming on 9965, and no sign of R. Rep?blica either, also July 8
at 1243. July 8 at 0544, 5955 was also free of both, audiblizing RN in Dutch
via Sines, PORTUGAL.
So is Rep?blica gone from this presumed ELCOR transmitter in Costa Rica? Or
moved? Look for new jammed frequencies otherwise unexplained. The Cubans are
not going to stop jamming a frequency unless they are positive the target is
gone.
However, earlier UT July 8, Scott Barbour in NH reported hearing R. Pio Doce,
Bolivia at 0117 on 5952v, in absence of R. Rep?blica and jamming; in the NASWA
list, Don Jensen in WI was hearing Bolivia too, but ``at 0108 a super big
carrier came on 5950, then R. Rep?blica ID that totally blocked the Bolivian``,
but clear again for Bolivia after 0117. RR on 5950, not 5954.2v?? New
transmitter site trying to get going? 5950 is still on the WYFR schedule, but
not until 0145, presumably warmup for RTI relay at 0200.
Is RR still via Sackville on 9490 in the evening? That`s not in latest HFCC,
but not sure it ever was. Not in EiBi either. Aoki lists it only as: ``9490
2300-2400 CAN Radio Republica Spa Sackville 34567``. But surely it was also on
after 0000 UT when Tue-Sat would make sense (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** INDIA. 9870, July 8 at 1244, Indian pop music from AIR VBS, only poor, but
haven`t heard it at listenable level for many months. Hope it will gradually
make a seasonal comeback, close to transpolar from here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. As often happens, after heavy Es openings for a few days, the
sporadic-E layer apparently takes a breather to `recover`. I keep my analog TV
on channel 2 much of the time anyway, usually aimed at Mexico for the snow. UT
July 8 at 0152 I begin to see some signals on channel 2, mix of CCI roughly
from the S. On channel 3, however, the peak is from the WSW with the
now-signature almost-zero beat bars between the two BCN stations. Nothing ever
comes in well enough to view; still some CCI on 2 as late as 0400.
July 8 at 1607, a signal briefly appears on 2 with antenna S, tentatively
Azteca Trece bug in UR.
Rotating to WSW, 3 comes in with good signal typical of XHBC Mexicali, ads
including for mattress, then out again; back briefly at 1625. Let`s hope it`s
the start of another good opening, but rather anemic so far. At least there is
some Es up to 62 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 9775-9780-9785, July 8 at 0539, REE is back in DRM noise, after
having been in AM when last checked July 5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** TAIWAN [non]. 5950, July 8 at 0541 past 0600 and still at 0648 check, WYFR
relay of RTI is only a strong open carrier, no modulation. Okeechobee now has
no other reason to stay awake after 0500, so maybe they were depending on it
running without supervision (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1572 monitoring: Thursday July 7 at 2100+ confirmed VG
on WTWW 9479 until 2129 but WTWW-1 webcast still not funxioning. WRMI inaudible
on 9955 tho no jamming either, but confirmed on webcast from 2100. WBCQ 7415
confirmed on webcast from 2132. WWRB confirmed at 0331 UT Friday July 8 on
webcast and still on 5051, not 5050; but there is a lite het. I myself missed
the new Friday 0500 airing on WRMI 9955, but at 0538 check R. Praga in Spanish
still had considerable pulse jamming from the DCJC.
Next WOR airings on WRMI: Friday 1430, Saturday 0800, 1500, 1730, Sunday 0800,
1530, 1730. On WTWW: UT Sunday 0400 on 5755. On WBCQ: UT Monday 0300v on
5110v-CUSB. On WRN via SiriusXM 120: Sat & Sun 1730, Sun 0830 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12100, July 8 at 0552, happened to catch WTWW-3 in an ID break, which
appear at odd times rather than hourtops, and we finally find out who is behind
this all-Bible-all-the-time service: Bible Worldwide, in Bellvue CO. I checked
the spelling and looked it up: guess what, it`s a tiny town of 400 right next
to Laporte, quite a coincidence neighboring the client of WTWW-1. It`s a
``mammoth non-denominational ministry``; 0553 on to Psalm LXXI during English
block. Good reception as usual even in the nightmiddle (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN. 15595, July 8 at 0555, nice classical organ music filler which VR
usually runs after the 0530 Mass, until 0600 IDs, into news in Italian, and I
believe English was to follow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
