** CHINA. Firedrake, very good signals but with flutter, March 11 at 1343 on
8400, 9000, 9300, and weaker on 9530 with VOA also audible (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ECUADOR. HCJB, Spanish on 11960 with a health program, Wed March 11 at 1434
discussing the benefits of breathing helium; not to be overdone, I assume. Then
talking about genital eroticism, best experienced between a man and a woman and
even better within matrimony! 1444:30 the usual incorrect automated ID which
they still haven`t fixed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. March 11 I was standing by on 15650 to detect exactly when VOG turns
it off: 1352:54* interrupting Greek music. Such a time is typical to allow time
for retuning to another frequency by hourtop, but which? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. VOA Spanish, 15590, VG with LA music show March 11 at 1355, nary a
selective fade, but unlike the day before, no announcements whatsoever when
abruptly cut off modulation a few sex past 1359 as a new tune had just started
a few notes, and carrier off a few sex before 1400, audiblizing weak Spain on
15585 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15130, WYFR Spanish, March 11 at 1401, carrier OK, but modulation
reduced and distorted, while playing hymn ``S?lo un paseo m?s cercano
conTigo``. That`s a literal translation of the English title, but I have no
idea what they really call it in Spanish, which Google translates back to
English as ``just a walk nearest you``, while trying it the other way, ``Just a
closer walk with Thee`` comes out as ``s?lo con un pie m?s cerca de ti``. If I
make it ``solo un paseo mas cerca de ti``, it comes out ``just a walk near
you`` --- Google doesn`t quite get it. RHC has a similar but worse modulation
problem at same time on 13760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN. 11850, VR IS at 1413 March 11 with heavy WYFR English 11855
splatter. Caths vs Prots! 1415 VR started up a language but I couldn`t tell
what. Per sked folder it`s Urdu, Weds and Suns only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6060, large open carrier from 1335 to 1338* March 11. Most likely
Cuba left transmitter for Venezuela on past 1300; stronger than RHC 6000, which
is also badly squeezed from both sides at this hour, unlike 6060 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###

Hi,
Please help me to identify the station transmitting the " Dash Dot
dot dot Dash Dash" on 369 KHZ at 1100hrs UTC.
I noticed this signal from 1100hrs UTC and continuing at 11:30hrs UTC.
The letters " T S M" were broadcast in Morse code at regular intervals.
may be once per minute.
Does anyone knows what the station is doing?
I am in Singapore. Is the signal from Air craft or ship?
Thanks

Subject: [HCDX] The Reverse Beacon Network
Message-ID: <6.2.0.14.2.20090310094725.04abb...@mail.comcast.net>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed
I'm writing to this group in an effort to recruit more users and
contributors for a unique new institution on the amateur bands, the Reverse
Beacon Network. For those of you who already know about us, my apologies
for repeating, but please scroll down to learn about a neat new on-line
capability we've just activated - the Signal Comparison Tool.
PY1NB and I started this project just about a year ago. The basic idea is
this. Instead of transmitting a signal as normal beacons do, "reverse
beacons" listen to all of a given amateur band and report the CW stations
they hear, their frequencies and signal strength (actually, the
signal-to-noise ratio) to a web site <http://skimmer.dxwatch.com>. The web
site displays the paths being reported in near real time on a world map,
and offers a variety of searches and other useful ways of manipulating the
data. During the recent ARRL CW DX Contest, in 48 hours the existing
network of about a dozen reverse beacons reported over 125,000 spots.
"Isn't that enough?", you may ask. Currently, there are reverse beacons
only in North America and Western Europe. The majority are on this side of
the Atlantic. We lack reverse beacons in Japan, China, VK/ZL, Africa, the
Middle East and Central and South America, and there aren't enough yet in
either Europe or North America to afford full coverage of all the open
bands all the time.
If you'd like to start by sampling the reverse beacon network's
capabilities as a user, just go to http://skimmer.dxwatch.com. The first
thing you will see is a zoom-able map displaying the last few minutes'
spots, and a list of the spots. In the right margin you'll see a list of
reverse beacons currently on-line, with the bands they are reporting
on. If a band is open between your QTH and Europe, you can get on that
band, call CQ for a minute, and then see which reverse beacons hear you and
how strong you are. You can search the database for spots of or by a
particular station, or by country or zone.
You'll also note the banner about our new Signal Comparison Tool. Follow
the link, enter a date, enter up to 10 stations' callsigns, and select a
band at one of the reverse beacons that was active on that day. Click Go!
and you'll see a list of all the spots of those stations reported by that
reverse beacon. You can easily compare your signal with your friends and
competitors, or see when the band opened and closed on a given day, or
review the action from last weekend's contest.
We hope that you'll be interested in being more than just another user,
though, and want to join the network. What do you need to become a reverse
beacon? The basic requirement is a software-defined receiver, such as the
SDR-IQ, SoftRock, Perseus, QS-1R or Mercury, which many people already
have. This is coupled with the CW Skimmer software developed by VE3NEA
<www.dxatlas.com>, which amazingly decodes all the CW it hears across an
entire amateur band, validates the callsigns and serves up a list of
"spots". A small freeware program written by PY1NB then provides the link
between CW Skimmer and the skimmer.dxwatch.com web-site. The PY1NB
software, called the Aggregator, transmits spot data to the reverse beacon
web site without requiring you to open your firewall or, in fact, to change
your computer's setup at all.
Do you incur any particular obligation by participating? No, not at
all. Membership in the reverse beacon network is constantly changing as
reverse beacon stations connect and disconnect. SWLs can continue their
usual listening activities, but may choose to leave their receivers on,
scanning the ham bands, while they are at work or otherwise occupied. Hams
could do the same, only putting their SDRs on the bands when they are not
actively operating.
Where's the rub? Well, CW Skimmer is shareware. A full-featured 30-day
test version is available from <www.dxatlas.com>, but after that you would
have to pay a registration fee in order to keep it operating. My somewhat
prejudiced view is that once you've tried it, you will decide it is well
worth the cost, both for the reverse beacon network and as a tool for your
DXing, contesting or SWLing. However, I am talking with Alex about the
possibility of his writing a special limited reverse beacon version of
Skimmer, and possibly allowing CW Skimmer to continue to operate in reverse
beacon mode after the 30-day trial period has elapsed. I should emphasize
that Alex is under no obligation to do this -- he is a professional
software developer with his own objectives to consider -- but I am hopeful
we can persuade him.
If you would like to try your hand as a reverse beacon station operator, as
we hope you will, go to <http://skimmer.dxwatch.com> and take a look at the
"getting started" tutorial. Download the free trial version of CW Skimmer,
download the "aggregator", start them both up and you're ready to go. Soon
your station will be displaying the stations it has heard on the Reverse
Beacon Network. And of course, Felipe and I stand ready to answer any
questions or help you get started.
Give it a try - I really think it will add a new dimension to your radio
experience.
Thanks for reading this!

Bolivia, 5952.46, Emisoras Pio XII, 0220-0231* Noted a male in Spanish

the comments. At 0226 traditional type music is presented. After
the music a small drama is presented, it could be an AD, don't know
at this point. The splatter is rather heavy while the signal is poor.

this was the closing comments. The station went down at 0231.

Subject: [HCDX] Vodafone steps up DRM-free mobile music initiative
Message-ID: <670438.66959...@web95412.mail.in2.yahoo.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Vodafone claims it will be the first global mobile network operator to offer
music free of DRM when it makes the switch to a large proportion of its
Vodafone Music Store catalog for mobile and PC by the summer, according to a
Billboard report.
While Germany, Italy, the UK, Spain and New Zealand will be the first
territories to roll out DRM-free services, Australia, the Czech Republic,
Greece, Hungary, India, Ireland, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, South
Africa and Turkey will follow "in due course," along with services on
Vodafone's partner networks in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus,
Iceland, Slovenia and Switzerland.
Universal Music Group, Sony Music Entertainment and EMI Music have all agreed
to the format conversion. The remaining major label, Warner Music, and all
independent labels on Vodafone's catalog are yet to confirm participation.
Tracks from these labels will remain available on the site in the original DRM
format.
Tracks can be transferred to any digital device owned by the customer,
including mobile phones and PCs. As well as this, Vodafone is allowing
customers to upgrade previously purchased tracks to be DRM-free at no extra
charge within the existing download allowance.
