Aparecida clashing with R. Santa Cruz on the off-frequency? But the other station with music on 6135 goes off at 1041* unlike a Brazilian, and like the nameless Korean clandestine reported by S. Hasegawa. Then in the clear, RSC has a language lesson presented in Spanish, seems like the other language is Chinese; or Italian? Heard syllables like ``ciao`` but mostly in Spanish, lite musical background. Said ``aprovechemos y valoremos``; 1047 ending les attributed to Instituto Radiof?nico F? y Alegr?a, ``El Maestro en Casa`` for home-learning. 1048 ID as Radio Santa Cruz and into yippy music. Strangely enough, Googling did not find right away station`s own website, but FAO has a lot about it at http://www.fao.org/docrep/x5600s/x5600s08.htm including a program schedule showing ``El Maestro en Casa - Educaci?n - 6:00 a 7:00 a.m. - Educaci?n formal para adultos - IRFA`` Here`s an article about IRFA which just appeared in the local press: http://www.eldeber.com.bo/vernotasantacruz.php?id=100508231136 Seems EMEC is mainly about literacy. Maybe they are teaching Spanish to the Quechua or Aymara accounting for some of the non-Spanish words. Here`s the IRFA website: http://www.irfabolivia.org/ which linx finally to RSC itself: http://www.radiosantacruz.com.bo/ O no, server can`t be found! Fortunately they are easy to find on 49m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CHINA. Firedrake August 10: 10300, very good at 1250 12500, good at 1255 with brief audio dropout at 1256; none in the 11`s 14720, poor at 1257 14950, fair at 1257; none in the 15`s 16980, poor at 1259; none in the 17`s or 18`s before 1300 The only time I checked today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 9240-AM, August 10 at 1026, YL 5-digit spy numbers in Spanish, S9+22 but undermodulated. I found this much more interesting than the last thing I just heard from Rod Hembree on 9330 WBCQ. 6000, August 10 at 1104, RHC sign-on frequency announcement is more accurate than the sign-off one circa 0500 with long-gone imaginary frequencies, but it`s still wrong in mentioning only 6000 on this band, while really // better signal on 6150 but undermodulated with squeal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ECUADOR [and non]. 6050, August 10 at 1102, HCJB good talking about leyes but with slow SAH of about 3 Hz. That strong a SAH ought to bring some audio too but none heard. Perhaps MALAYSIA is on-frequency today, but not modulating? Ron Howard logged Asyik FM today at 1240 on 6050.0 with a 3-minute call to prayer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** FRANCE [non]. 9825, August 10 until 1029*, just caught a few sex of what I thought was a gospel huxter screaming before cut off the air, but uplooked later it must have been some music fill on RFI`s Spanish service scheduled 1000-1030[sic] via GUIANA FRENCH, 250 kW, 305 degrees, one of the registered CIRAF targets including Oklahoma, strangely enough, at 5 am in a minority language; in fact, OK has become an English-only state despite numerous Indian languages, many endangered, i.a.: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English-only_movement Of course, RFI has never condescended to broadcast in English, *ugh* to any part of North America; and hardly even in French! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GREECE. 9420, August 10 at 0520, VOG must be back on here after an absence as in previous report: music and talk both sound Greek, but 15630 is too weak to be sure it`s //. Iran presumably starts 9420 at 0530 but unchecked then. John Babbis had 9420 Greece again from 2200 UT Aug 9 past 0200 Aug 10. Wolfgang B?schel agrees that Greece is back on 9420 at 1250 August 10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GUATEMALA. 4055, August 10 at 1106, R. Verdad is already on talking about Jes?s, and better signal than it usually has closer to sunrise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 6185, August 10 at 1101, Radio Educaci?n is running over again, past nominal 6 am closedown, guy talking about a pueblo, and with a SAH, from Asia? Probably China Huayi as in Aoki but missing from HFCC along with XEPPM, just a wooden Malaysian entry. If XE is not off before 1130, it will be blasted away by NHK in Russian (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. Channel 2, signs of weak analog video from the south when I turned on August 10 at 1430 UT, but nothing developed during following hour. 6m Es map showed activity only to the southeast of here within the USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9330-CUSB, August 10 at 1019, ``shortwave lesson no. 3 on propagation`` punxuated by dog barking. Rod Hembree explains basics of ionospheric layers, refraxion, skipping. Repeat of old ``Radio Weather`` show from years ago, then `Time Tunnel` segment, about what a great scientist Isaac Newton was, morphing into stealth evangelism alleging that SIN attributed everything he accomplished to Jesus. Is part of the almost-continuous Good Friends Radio Network buyout of this WBCQ transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7520, August 10 at 1037, ``Georgia`` by Willie Nelson, VG signal where nothing was supposed to be at this hour. Then I hear a squeal and know it must be WWCR-1, especially since they are missing from 9985. Yep, soon hear the `World Wide Country Radio` DJ saying he`s had enough of that before the tune is over, 1036 on to ``Georgia on My Mind``, Glen Campbell`s version, I think. Furthermore, the always-parasitic WWCR-1 spurs could be heard with bits of same modulation just below 7505 and above 7535. WWCR registered 7520 for 01-04 and had really been using it for only the first hour of that. But now the transmitter schedule effective Aug 6 at http://www.wwcr.com/transmitter-sched.html does show 7520 instead of 9985 at 09-11. 7520 was off at 1059 recheck, moving to 15825 which is normally inaudible to JBA at the outset (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 10 Aug 2011 09:06:50 -0700 (PDT) From: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> To: d...@yahoogroups.com Cc: s...@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [HCDX] [dxld] Glenn Hauser logs August 10, 2011 Message-ID: <1312992410.32270.yahoomailclas...@web114006.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Greece/Iran 9420 correxion: ** GREECE. 9420, August 10 at 0520, VOG must be back on here after an absence as in previous report: music and talk both sound Greek, but 15630 is too weak to be sure it`s //.
