According to sources, the district administration was advised by the federal government to immediately block the transmission of all FM radio stations operating illegally in the area. As a result, the local authorities blocked transmission of seven FM radio stations set up in Charsadda city and Shabqadar. These radio stations were being used in seminaries and mosques for the purpose of teaching.

Both women were chosen for their skills in multimedia and managing people but that doesn't mean the way ahead won't be bumpy as the broadcaster continues to deliver content not just on television and radio, but also online and on mobiles. Dundas, appointed director of the sprawling radio division last week by managing director Mark Scott, has warned of a "challenging era" as staff adapt to the rapid change in technology. The ABC's existing five analogue radio networks -- Radio National, NewsRadio, Triple J, Classic FM and Local Radio -- will be supplemented by digital radio from July 1. "The major challenge will be to integrate media-rich services so a network is not just a radio station with a website added on," Dundas told Media. "Each network needs to be really integrated to include everything from podcasting to user-generated content and that's hard -- that's cultural change." While Triple J has made the leap into being a truly multi-platform network with a magazine, a TV show, games, original music, photos to accompany radio programs and other innovations, the more staid Radio National is yet to be fully converted. Radio National has, however, been the leader in podcasting, with millions of podcasts being downloaded of programs from Philip Adams' Late Night Live to Fran Kelly's Breakfast. "It's a different way of thinking," Dundas said of expecting broadcasting staff to create additional content for the web. "And I have to look at the resources available to do that and see that people are skilled enough to do it. It's interesting to watch younger people coming through who do it with ease." Dundas's examination of radio resources is a formal review which has been under way since late last year when her predecessor Sue Howard axed The Religion Report and several other shows to move resources online. "Technology's made a huge difference," Dundas said. "Technology can help you produce different versions of things. Tape is so long gone.." Scott appears to have been grooming Dundas for the position, moving her from radio to run the newly named department of People and Learning for 18 months. Making his announcement last week he said her experience in staff development would be important as the review of the ABC Radio division continued in the coming months. "Kate will continue this work from the radio division, where the opportunities of new technology and the implementation of digital radio can be fully explored," Scott said in a statement. "The ABC is currently in a strong position and we want to maintain that leadership in digital media, capitalising on our strengths in the key content areas of news and radio; the work of the directors of news and radio will be integral in this endeavour." The other Kate, Kate Torney, who was appointed director of news last week and replaces John Cameron on April 14, also faces managing a huge cultural shift as the ABC moves to desktop editing of stories by reporters and fully automated news studios around the country. Body: Torney was head of Asia Pacific News, a job which involved managing the largest cross-platform international newsroom in the Asia-Pacific region, responsible for more than 60 journalists. She introduced broadcast technology to the Australia Network newsroom. The two Kates have a lot in common. Apart from being directors of content at the ABC and sharing a name, they both have three children. Dundas, 50, has twin boys, 15, and a 19-year-old son. Torney, 41, is still juggling a young family, with children aged two, six and 11. Her husband, John Duggan, is a photographer on The Age. While Dundas succeeds Sue Howard, who was the first woman to run radio, Torney is the first woman to head the ABC's national news and current affairs empire. Her appointment is akin to print journalist Michelle Grattan's when she became the first female editor of a metropolitan daily newspaper as editor of The Canberra Times in 1993. She returned to The Age in 1995 as political editor. Both women attribute being able to balance challenging jobs with raising families to a supportive workplace and family. "I have an incredibly supportive husband and a terrific network of support to keep us going," Torney says. She says it's a "great honour" to be the first woman to run the division but it didn't cross her mind when she went for the job and was shortlisted with three men. "I'm incredibly proud to work for an organisation that promotes on merit, and if it's an inspiration to other women who work in the media, that's terrific," she says. "But there's a range of extraordinary women working in senior roles at the ABC." The real focus for Torney, who will soon be responsible for 700 journalists working on everything from The 7:30 Report to ABC News to Foreign Correspondent, is the journalism. "Our commitment to independent and quality reporting is central to what we do and it will continue to be vitally important to me to protect journalistic excellence. We must remember that is the core of what we do." (australianit.news.com.au) ________________ Jaisakthivel, Chennai, India Add more friends to your messenger and enjoy!

"In this economic environment, being able to receive all these extra stations around the country for free is immensely appealing," says HD Digital Radio Alliance president Diane Warren. "We intend to continue to educate and inform radio consumers and listeners about HD Radio, the new free stations, and the devices with the new radio advertising campaign in 100 markets on over 700 stations." Starting this week, the Alliance will launch its new on-air ad campaign, aimed at educating consumers that a new receiver is needed to enjoy the HD experience. Positioned as 'If you don't have an HD, you're not hearing HD. It's time to upgrade', the messaging reinforces the need for a radio upgrade in order to hear the digital quality sound and new stations. The campaign will direct consumers to the homepage of HDRadio to view the station and buyer's guide. The home page of HDRadio.com will have scrolling 'MY DEALS' so that consumers can view bargains on receivers at various retailers. With the rise in the number of digital stations, the number of receivers has also gone up. However, the price has gone down with units now available for as little as $79. http://www.indiantelevision.com/headlines/y2k9/mar/mar281.php ____________________ Jaisakthivel, Chennai, India Connect with friends all over the world.

St. Helena Is. logged on MW!!! I got very happy when I heard my 16th Department on ULR with my Eton E-100, sitting on my backyard on a warm late evening that resembled more summertime than Fall... URUGUAY. 1180 LV de Artigas, 0113, with play by play soccer and mentioning "Oribe (street name)... para todo el Departamento de Artigas" (Nigro, Uruguay, Mar 29). The remaining Departments (Uruguay Geographical divisions total 19) that remain to be heard with ULR are: Rivera, Flores, and Salto. -- At 0330, my wife was already at bed, I was preparing to do the same, my listening post is at my bedside. I started to search with my Kenwood R-600 and first got CB118 Radio Corporaci?n from Santiago, Chile. Good! Also checked with the E-100 and positive!. A new Chilean added to the ULR log. I continued and stopped at a carrier on 1548. Great!!!, this is the first time I get a offset European frequency signal in Montevideo. In the dark and with my flashbulb I opened the WRTH 2009... looked at the most powered station in the listing, there appears: R. Sawa Kuwait 600/300 kW and Grigoropol 500 kW... Signal was enough strong to get a woman with talks in English at 0325 I checked on the E-100 and it was there too. But signal was fair and faded out for 5 minutes. On the E-100 it was evident more QRM from a Brazilian station.... on the R600 the carrier was more evident due to the nice narrow filter on this last receiver. Suddenly a short tune melody was heard and I thought... this sound is familiar: it certainly was the ID musical signature for R. St. Helena, the one we usually heard every year at their annual St. Helena Day!!!. The audio degraded for several minutes, but there was still a carrier detectable, while on E-100 there was more activity from the 1550 channel. At 0400 the signal faded-out. While I was in this special thrilling moment I tried -in the dark- to connect my mp3 to the E-100, something I didn't expect to do earlier, a mix of cables from different earphones, line in/out... the flashbulb the logbook, trying to keep the WRTH open... it was too late to get the significative part and it wasn't recorded. I still cannot plug the recorder to the R600 since it has no line out audio level. So I regret to not bear a recorded proof of this St. Helena log. But this forces me to further keep trying on this offset frequency in the future... R. St. Helena on MW and without Beverage in a suburban quarter in the capital city...and also on an UL!?? Yes it's possible!!!! ! Incredibly possible. Recap log: ST. HELENA 1548 R. St. Helena (p), Jamestown, 0325. Carrier and English talks by woman, detected with my Kenwood R-600, (+15 m randomwire, 9:1 balun + ferrite balun in series). Faded out till 0335 when back. R. St. Helena well known ID musical signature strikes my ears!!. Also checked with UL Eton E-100 getting the signal. In the interim, the UL had more QRM from 1550 UNID Brazilian. Degraded and faded out at 0400 with a short peak at 0353, with apparent choir music. (Nigro, Uruguay, Mar 30) --- At this time: By now, I feel a sort of bitter hang-over... it was a short but incredible moment, those that DXing fortunately gives time to time and keep us connected with the hobby for the entire life. But I have no no recording to show as proof and it's a pity. St. Helena and me were alone in a hot romantic affair last night, and it was indeed a pretty young lady. But there's no "photo" to show just the memory. :( Checked the mp3 this morning and there's no recording for St. Helena... just the 1550 Brazilian and one "AM 15-50" ID in Spanish surely from Argentina, (this latter was not hrd on the R-600) I am sure I will be every night sticked at 1458 from now on. I hope it wasn't a propagational extreme coincidence and will have another chance. Very recent reports from Brazilian SWers in the "Radioescutas" YG tell that at that moment all bands were closed, only local Tropical banders were present, not even a single one on 25m or 31m. They report a similar situation didn't take place since last July. And will be better prepared next time.

This year, however, will be the first time ever to completely synchronise the frequency change date with the international community. Up to now they usually changed frequencies twice a year on the first Mondays of May and November. Last year they just missed out one day when they effected the changes on Monday, October 27. Following the complete schedules sorted by either languages or time. Please feel free to publish the schedules by quoting me as the source of information. I will also send you, upon request, the word documents sorted by time and languages. I can also offer lists with feeder frequencies or beam information sorted by time. Please feel free to contact me.

R. Tirana, now on A-09 schedule with all English one UT hour earlier after two sesquiweeks of confusion since most of NAm went to DST earlier. March 30 at 1430 opening English on 13625 with updated English transmission schedule; fair modulation but only fair signal and fading (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** AUSTRIA. ?1 still with token 3-minute English newscast in A-09, heard on 6155 March 30 ending at 0612, into French. Remains to be reconfirmed whether this is still secretly included weeknights in the external service at about 13 minutes past each semi-hour 0000-0130 on new 9820 to Americas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDIA [and non]. 11585, AIR music from Delhi with talk CCI, March 30 at 1443. Nothing but AIR scheduled, altho RFA Tibetan via Tinian starts at 1500; maybe ChiCom jamming on early? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** INDONESIA. I am cautiously optimistic that the long-running radio war on 9680 among VOA, Taiwan and China, obliterating clear reception of RRI domestic service relay despite its 250 kW, may be over in A-09; at least March 30 at 1348 I was hearing nothing but RRI with mostly music show, Indonesian announcements, breaking to open carrier 1402-1408 when I could be sure there was nothing else on frequency, 1408 resuming programming in progress, conversation, someone singing over the phone, better pre-recorded music, vocal and percussion, etc. In B-08, Aoki listed these collisions: 9680*R.TAIWAN INT. 1100-1700 1234567 Chinese 100 352 Taipei TWN 12124E2509N CBSC b08 Jan.1 9680 RRI Jakarta 2200-1300 1234567 Indonesian 250 316 Jakarta-Cimanggis INS 10651E0623S RRI 9680*VOICE OF AMERICA 1200-1500 1234567 Chinese 250 349 Tinang PHL 12037E1521N IBB b08 The * indicates also ChiCom jamming, so that meant at least 4 transmitters at once. However, note they had RRI stopping at 1300. EiBi B-08 had RRI until 1500; and even worse, R. Japan also on 9680 at 1200-1600. I`ve yet to find any IBB, RTI or NHK listings for A-09 on 9680 in this time period. WRTH and Aoki do not specify which RRI domestic program is on 9680, but EiBi says number 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** ROMANIA [and non]. RRI Romanian service on new 11920 ex-11940, good and clear March 30 at 1340, and // much weaker 15195, ex-15170 so no longer colliding with REE/Costa Rica. However, there was still a SAH on 15170, from what? Must be VOA Somali, due north from Madagascar during the 13-14 hour. RRI Romanian is now 12-14, 285 degrees from Galbeni for France on both frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SAUDI ARABIA. Sawt ul-Buzz continues on A-09, March 30 at 1501 so loud that it overrides the Qur`an recitation; still // 15225 much weaker but buzzfree, in skirts of CRI via Canada 15220 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SERBIA [non]. Just as I predicted when the A-09 schedule of IRS came out a few days ago, showing a change from 6190 to 9580 for the North American service at 0000-0130 --- It is colliding with RRI on 9580, at 00-01, as checked March 30 at 0034. A clash between two English broadcasts to North America, and a SAH of approximately 6 Hz between them. At the momoent there were two male voices, the bassier one coming from IRS and the tenor one from Romania, which helped to distinguish them, but not exactly the best resolution for this problem. A minute later, RRI had a M&W conversing, and the latter station also has crisper modulation, as you would expect from their brand-new transmitter. Another way out would be for one of them to be on LSB and the other on USB! But I doubt such cooperation would be possible. Moving one of them to a completely different frequency is what is needed. The only reason IRS went to 9580 is that they (or as R. Yugoslavia) had used that frequency several years ago to NAm --- but they should not have assumed it was still open for them after years of absence. IRS is one of few (only?) European broadcasters that do not participate in HFCC, but even a cursory check of HFCC or other frequency listings should have shown them that 9580 is NOT now available for them. Altho RRI has just started using 9580 at this hour in A-09, the second hour, 01-02, has been used by CRI via Habana for many years, and it still is. By recheck at 0116, CRI was way on top, but I could hear some music under, presumably IRS, also with a SAH but seemed slightly slower than 6 Hz. According to Dragan Lekic in DXLD 9-027, IRS A-09 schedule is: 0000-0030 9580 BIJ 250 kW/ 310 degrees NCAm SERBIAN MON-SAT 0000-0100 9580 BIJ 250 kW/ 310 degrees NCAm SERBIAN SUN 0030-0100 9580 BIJ 250 kW/ 310 degrees NCAm ENGLISH MON-SAT 0100-0130 9580 BIJ 250 kW/ 325 degrees NoAm ENGLISH While looking for a clear 9 MHz frequency, they should go back to 6190 as in B-08, which per a few chex seems unoccupied, altho Urumchi and Berlin are registered, but they were no obstacle in the previous season. IRS has also retimed the two English broadcasts so now they are in consecutive half-hours. This makes no sense; previously there was a half-hour break between them. Since there are 5 major timezones in NAm, the second broadcast should be much later in our evenings for convenient listening in the western zones as intended by the 325 azimuth. This was once the case, as I recall, at 0430 UT when they were using 11 MHz in summer (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY [non]. As of UT March 30, the VOT relay via Sackville moved one UT hour earlier to 0300, still on 7325. And it is STILL in Turkish (?) instead of English, checked at 0335 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ### ------------------------------ Message: 16 Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 10:50:53 -0700 (PDT) From: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> To: d...@yahoogroups.com Cc: s...@mailman.qth.net Subject: Re: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs March 30, 2009: Saudi WTFK?
