Bolivia, 3309.95, Radio Mosoj Chaski, 0937-1000, At tune in heard a male in
Spanish
comments briefly. After a few comments, music was presented for a couple of
minutes.
Following the music a female continued to talk. Signal was fading in and out
at a
poor level. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Honduras, 3340, HRMI (pres), 0945-1000, Noted steady popular Spanish language
music at tune in. Signal was fair. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Brazil, 5045, Radio Cultura Ondas Tropicais, (pres) 0955-1005, Noted mostly
music until 0957 when a male comments in Portuguese briefly. After a few
comments, back to music. On the hour, more comments. Signal was fair.
(Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Bolivia, 6155.20, Radio Fides, 1005-1015, At tune in, noted a female in
Spanish language presenting the news. Heard some place names such
as "Cina" during the news. At 1008 music is presented. At 1010
canned promos and ID. For the first few minutes of this logging,
the signal was at a fair level although if had some splatter interfering
with it. The signal was surprisingly audible this morning eventhough
there was fading and splatter. (Chuck Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Bolivia, 6134.82, Radio Santa Cruz, 1011-1020, Noted a male and female in
Spanish
comments. Signal was very poor with splatter. (Chuck Bolland, October 23,
2009)
Bolivia, 6075, Radio Causachun Coca, 1015-1030, Pulling this signal in
required
a little "tickling". With a very weak signal, noted a male in Spanish comments
here while the signal drops out periodically to nil then fades back in. One
thing
about this band regardless of the frequency, there's always enough splatter to
interfere with the target's reception. At 1019, a female joined the
conversation.
The station's signal remained at a poor level. (Chuck Bolland, October 23,
2009)
Guam, 5765, AFN, 1032-1045, Steady news and commentary from the Radio
networks(NPR), in the USA. The signal was at a fair level with some fading.
(Chuck
Bolland, October 23, 2009)
Watkins Johnson, HF1000

MAGNA just updated on October 22, 2009.. You can download

Considering recent conditions, I feel this morning was exceptional. Most of my
usual target stations were more audible than previously. I wondered if this is
a trend
or just a fluke that will not occur again? Anyway, it was encouraging.

** CHINA. OTH radar pulses, presumed from here: Oct 23 at 1228 on
5775-5825, weak; at 1230 on 6960-7010 impinging on the 40m hamband. Rather
strong at 1255 on 7710-7750, enough to bother WYFR 7730 right smack dab in the
middle of it. That range still pulsing at 1352 after WYFR had closed at 1345
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake Oct 23: At 1259, nothing on 8400, fair on 9000, and for a
change some co-channel audible under, really Sound of Hope? But 1300 FD into
open carrier and not much else. At 1310, FD fair on 10210 too. At 1350, 8400
was back on at good level, better than // 9000 or // 10210 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC 11760 spur galaxy Oct 23: at 1311 found the lowest one around
11188, up to the highest one on 12332 at 1320. These two are eleven times 52
kHz below and above fundamental 11760, or 572 kHz out, i.e. 23 frequencies for
the price of one! In between, every 52 kHz, the same-pitch tipoff whine, with
the closer ones also bearing RHC modulation, but distorted blobs without a
sharp carrier. Minus-one was on 11708.0 or just a shade lower than that, so the
further ones out are correspondingly higher or lower than on previous occasions
at 51.2 kHz intervals. The one on 11552 was bothering WEWN 11550 which
restricts its own spurs to only plus/minus 10 kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. AIR Aligarh blob, Oct 23 at 1318 with IS: distortion covering roughly
9465-9475, poor signal and weaker than clear // 9425 Bengaluru. Bothers RA on
9475, not quite Thailand on 9455 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9525.9, VOI still on the upper channel Oct 23 at 1301 opening
English hour, as ``sound of dignity``, program summary, mentioning today`s date
Oct 23, 2009; 1302 news including efforts to reduce traffic accidents. VOI news
is laden mostly with stuff about the doings of government agencies and
officials. Is anything else going on in this vast country? After the CRI
Russian hour, VOI still on and in the clear again at 1511, registering S9+18
but useless as modulation just barely audible, a very poor showing compared to
its neighbors loud and clear on 9515 RCI, 9535 NHK (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. Checking 6170 whether the het could still be heard from
PHILIPPINES [q.v.], Friday Oct 23 at 1308, found RNZI playing C&W music, ``I
can`t help it if I`m still in love with you``, classic Hank Williams song
performed by the Holmes Bros. & Roseanne Cash as outroed at 1310. Trouble is,
news magazine Dateline Pacific is supposed to be airing at this hour UT Mon-Fri
per
http://www.rnzi.com/pages/schedules.php
So is their sked confused as to UT day of week or one-hour DST shift? Or some
other anomaly, such as defaulting to domestic RNZ National instead of RNZI
origination? This could well be the ``From the World`` sesquihour in the All
Night Programme on National which admittedly mixes music and talk features
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES [and non]. Oct 23 sought DZRM on 6170.4 before RNZI *1259. At
1243 detected a soprano on 6170.4; music sounded rather Vietnamese, but perhaps
just SE Asian, as who else would be on 6170.4? I confirmed this was off 6170 to
the hi side compared to KFAQ Tulsa 1170.0, by retuning the MHz dial only on the
FRG-7 with BFO on, a handy trick frequently employed. Could also have been done
with any reliable SW frequency ending in 170, but Spain/Costa Rica has been
missing from 15170. Very weak signal with splash from Beijing 6175 and
occasionally even Cuba 6180. At 1308 RNZI 6170.0 was in C&W music [see NEW
ZEALAND] and no het audible, but when they went to outro talk at 1310, the
6170.4 het could be heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. Generally poor reception conditions the morning of
Oct 23 --- nothing extracontinental on 120, 90 or 60 metres when I started at
1230, and was not expecting anything on 13m either, but by 1343 it had barely
opened with BSKSA Arabic audible on 21640 and buzz on 21505; also fading in and
out, weak bits of Spain on 21610, 21570, 21540; Libya 21695 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX ISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. VOA, 7575, very good Oct 23 at 1255 with International Public
Service Announcement, some Rwandan ``pentecostal pastor`` wanted for genocide,
believe to be hiding in Congo DR, big $5mega reward and witness protexion
available. An hour later at 1355 there was a VOA Editorial instead, about
Darfur. At 1358 announced frequencies to be used in following hour for News
Now: only 7.575 and 9.76 MHz, but at 1359, 7575 vanished. Axually this is when
7575 switches from Tinang 21 degrees USward to Udorn 268 degrees westward, and
a faint signal could then be detected on 7575, plus VOA English news could then
be heard on 7545, which is Tinang tho 270 degrees, but suffering severe splash
from another Tinang transmitter only 5 kHz up on 7550, the weekend Indonesian
service at 200 degrees. The two frequencies claimed apply only to Asia as we
know there are more to Africa at 1400 such as 17585, Greenville/Botswana (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. In order to avoid all those frequency ranges under this heading
when compiling contents, I am now filing over-the-horizon radar logs, altho
they cannot be 100% identified as to source, under CHINA for the 50-kHz-spread
version from the west and under CYPRUS for the 25-kHz spread version from the
east --- none of the latter today (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
