Dear friends,					                   January 02, 2002 

Happy New DX-Year to all of you ! Here in Skovlunde the new year was entered with grandiose 
fireworks against a clear sky and over gardens covered with 12 centimeters of new snow. It was 
11 degrees ( C )  below zero with the night before being the coldest (- 19 C) during all 2001. 

Yesterday was E-Day in 12 European countries swapping to the Euro currency. I just feel sorry 
for all those South Europeans who are no longer millionaires in their local currency?

Thank you for all the contributions ! On Dec 17-19 Richard D?Angelo, Bob Montgomery and Ed 
Mauger went on their eleventh DXpedition to French Creek State Park, Pennsylvania (FCDX-
PA). Equipment: Drake R-8B, 500 foot wire essential north, 100 foot wire essentially southeast 
and a Montgomery Active Antenna, Datong FL-3. Conditions the first day and evening were 
exceptional.  Africans and Bolivians were seemingly everywhere you turned.  An outstanding 
opening produced 120 meter band stations from Mexico (2390 kHz) and Brazil (2379.9 kHz).  

Highlights this time:
Danish project of domestic broadcasting in Afghanistan.
Broadcasting situation in Argentina.
New Clandestine broadcasting towards Zimbabwe.
List of CIS transmitters broadcasting Clandestine programmes.
Broadcasting in Estonia.
Rikisutvarpid, Iceland is back on the air.
Complete India SW schedule useful in this time of tension.
AWR has closed its transmitter in Forli.
DX-news from Victor Goonetilleke on R Korea International.
R Madagasikara back on 5010.
Norway has closed its International Service, but not its SW transmitters.
QSL letter from Samorodinka R, Moscow.			          Best 73,  Anker

AFGHANISTAN 
Mr. Bent Noerby Bonde, Director of Baltic Media Centre (BMC), Svaneke, Bornholm, 
established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Denmark, was interviewed Dec 20 in Radio 
Denmark, P1, about their large media project in order to establish an independent public service 
radio broadcaster in Afghanistan.

At the end of November BMC was on a fact-finding mission to Pakistan in order to establish the 
immediate needs and possibilities for forming an Afghan radio. BMC's chief consultant Waseem 
Mahmood and head of training Charles Fletcher will be going to Islamabad in Pakistan on 2 
January 2002 and afterwards continue to Kabul in Afghanistan.

The immediate aim of the travel is to establish an agreement with Radio Kabul and a number of 
local journalists on creating a public service programme which editorially will be independent from 
the many contesting parties in Afghanistan. The aim of the radio itself is to contribute to a 
democratic, peaceful and stable development of the 
country.

The radio programme will initially broadcast practical information on different subjects such as the 
development in the country, the political negotiations, how to obtain humanitarian aid, the refugee 
situation and not the least help pave the way for creating a dialogue with the people of 
Afghanistan.

The objective of the project is further to train local journalists in how to produce balanced and 
professional radio which in a longer perspective will enable them to become important participants 
in a democratic and pluralistic media landscape. The project is done for the European Commission 
which has donated 234,759 Euros.

After the first three months the intention with the project also is to seek to establish a cooperation 
between Afghan radios from different parts of the country, which also means different ethnic and 
political radios. These radios will then in turn form the core for the creation of a national public 
service radio broadcaster. Hence the project in its second phase - and in cooperation with the 
media, media NGOs and politicians - will become an important factor for the democratic and 
political development of Afghanistan.

The Director stated that this radio station will be independent of the VOA, BBC and other stations 
which broadcast towards Afghanistan today.

Based on its extensive experience from media projects in south-east Europe, e.g. in Serbia after 
the fall of Mr. Milosevic, the Baltic States and Asia, focusing on democracy and stability 
development, BMC approached EU's Rapid Reaction Mechanism for support for this project, 
which is expected to have a vast influence upon the future development of the society of 
Afghanistan. More details on { http://www.bmc.dk }www.bmc.dk (Ed)

AUSTRIA 
1476 MW  R Africa International via ORF.  This is simply one of the many groups that contribute 
to the MW programme on  1.476 via Wien-Bisamberg. ORF, the Austrian Broadcasting 
Corporation, offers access to the airwaves to volunteer initiatives, ethnical minorities, students of 
radio schools etc. a few hours each day in the late afternoon and early evenings. Some of these 
programmes were relayed via ROI/Moosbrunn when, due to budget cuts, the external service was 
replaced by relays of  the home service. The team of "R Africa International" managed to raise 
some funds to enlarge their SW presence. That's all. If you want to listen to them, you are most 
welcome. If you really and dearly need a confirmation: write to them c/o ORF, Argentinerstr.

you can trust" and "SW Radio Africa - Zimbabwe's independent voice". E-mail address 
announced: views@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, and the local cell phone No.: 023 275 030.  Excellent and 
very strong signal which would be consistent with a local (South African) transmitter, although 
Madagascar would provide comparable strength on this frequency at this hour. Did not have a 
chance to check if this station replaces Voice of The People. The programming and the style 
would indicate the same crowd. The quality of the signal is perfect and the whole operation is 
absolutely professional, i.e. the programmes must be made by skilled personnel and journalists in a 
top quality studios.  (Korinek via DXplorer)
The station started  Dec 19 on 6145 and the internet with daily broadcasts at 1600-1900. Its web

ESTONIA 
The Laitse transmitting station, housing the transmitters formerly used on 5925 kHz SW, and 612 
& 1035 kHz MW, was officially closed down on July 01, 1998.  Reports that these transmitters 
are used again by commercial stations (or might be in the future) thus seem improbable.  The 
operating costs would be very high and listeners throughout the country have meanwhile become 
quite used to FM broadcasts. The only possible future of the Laitse facility might be as a mobile 
phone relay station. (van Delft)

I asked Adrian Petersen to confirm the rumours about AWR Forli closure and received this official 
announcement from him on Dec 19. (Ed):

?Adventist World Radio (AWR) officially announces the end of broadcasting from its shortwave 
station located at Forli in Italy, effective December 31, 2001.  The low powered 2.5 kW station in 
Forli has been on the air since 1985.  The decision to cease broadcasting from the Forli site 
ultimately became inevitable after AWR began leasing airtime from two more powerful stations; 
Deutsche Telekom in Juelich, Germany, and ORF in Moosbrunn, Austria.

Adventist World Radio is the international radio system of Christian ministry operated by the 
Seventh-day Adventist Church with its headquarters in Silver Spring, Maryland, USA.  AWR 
owns and operates a major shortwave broadcasting station on the island of Guam, licensed by the 
FCC as KSDA, with four transmitters at 100 kW .  AWR also leases time on shortwave relay 
stations in six additional countries; Germany, Austria, Slovakia, South Africa, Madagascar, and 
the United Arab Emirates.  

AWR also broadcasts on national radio throughout Russia, as well as in Kazakstan and 
Uzbekistan.  AWR also operates a satellite program distribution system serving a local network of 
downlink stations located in Latin America; from Guatemala to Argentina.  Additionally, AWR 
operates a growing internet-based system of program distribution accessible at  { http://www.awr.org }www.awr.org .  
The mission of Adventist World Radio is to speak the message of hope in Jesus to the peoples of 
the world in their own languages.  Geoff Patterson, Communication Director, Adventist World 
Radio, { mailto:PattersonGe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx }PattersonGe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx  ?.  
There also seems to have been too many problems with  bureaucracy and Greens in the planned

KOREA (Rep.) 
I was asked by Bill Matthews to take over Radio Korea International DX Programme weekly DX 
reports. However, I offered to do just one a month. So on  Sunday Jan 06 I will broadcast the first 
DX Report.  If you have the time would you check out and let me know how reception is? In Soth 
Asia reception is overall fair. I guess they have it on the Internet as well. The report starts almost 
at the beginning of the programme and is no more than 5 minutes. Usual thing like the old Radio 
Netherlands report. Thanks, Victor.

RUSSIA 
3921 Samorodinka R, Moscow (Pirate).  On Dec 28, I received a very special QSL from Mr. Leo 
S. Shishkin, Box 898, Moscow who has been a licensed radioamateur since 1947 (callsign ua3bj 
on 3569 kHz). Now he also broadcasts from a 100 watts amateur transmitter with antenna on the 
roof of his house in Russian about the old times in the former USSR.  I heard it on Nov 21 and 
got a HAM QSL card, a memory card about World War II and a very long, personal handwritten 
letter in English where he explained the heroic songs from WWII, I heard in the broadcast, and 
also explained how difficult it was to be a radioamateur in the years after the War. 
Mr Shishkin wrote about the broadcasts: 

?The Samorodinka Radio broadcasts groundly by CW (AIA). The possible channels are 3921 +-2 
kHz (+-QRM); 4875 (+-); 9419 or 13998 (+-) kHz. The schedule is non regular. The languages 
are Russian and timely English. 
The regular schedule = almost everyday is only for 3921 (+-) kHz channel since the finish of 
phone AM transmission about at 0045(+-) local Moscow time and until about 0115 (+-) Moscow 
time. 
The phone AM transmissions are possible on channels 3921 (+-), 4875 (+-), 9419, 9770 and 
13559 (+-) kHz. The schedule is non regular. The languages are also the same. The regular phone 
AM schedule = almost every day is only for 3921 (+-) kHz channel since 0005 (+-) Moscow time 
untill 0045 (+-) Moscow time? . That is 2105-2145 UTC.  I heard it from tune in 2115 till 2148*

mess. Nice conditions towards Africa though with mysterious UNID at 3390 at 1750. To stay 
near, 3200 and 3240 TWR are not active anymore, I suppose. Not a trace of them since many a 
month. (Pijpers)

Dear Radio Friends,

The Finnish DX Association is happy to welcome all DX-ers, shortwave listeners, broadcasters 
and radio enthusiasts to attend the joint conference of the European DX Council and the Finnish 
DX Association. The
conference is to be held 16th to 18th of August 2002 in the town of Pori, located on the west 
coast of Finland.

Many of you may remember the DX conferences held in Finland in 1987 and 1992. Those have 
been the biggest DX conferences ever in Europe and they are also widely regarded as maybe the 
best ones. Our intention is to put
up a similar conference providing a wide selection of items covering hard-core-dx on AM and FM, 
shortwave listening and international shortwave broadcasting.

The radio hobby will be the key topic of the conference. The venue is the Spa Hotel Yyteri about 
20 kms outside the town of Pori, and most items will take place in the hotel. Of course a visit to 
the YLE shortwave transmitter center only 15 kms away will be organised. The Spa Hotel Yyteri 
is located on one of the most beautiful sand beaches of Finland offering  an excellent forum for 
tourist activities for you and also for your companion. There are good connections to Pori from 
other major cities of Finland and a frequent bus service from the center of Pori is available to Spa 
Hotel Yyteri.

Like said, this conference will concentrate on the hobby itself. Unlike recent EDXC conferences 
tourist matters will only have a side-role. Yet, we are planning to provide a trip to Tallinn, Estonia 
after the conference, if enough interest will be paid for this opportunity.

Another thing also differs from the recent EDXC conferences, and it is the prices! The prices have 
not yet been fixed (Finland will move to Euro currency in less than two weeks from now), but for 
example one night in the hotel in a double room will be around 40 Euros (240 FIM) / person 
(including seaview, breakfast and the spa). And for those looking for still cheaper lodging there is 
a good camping area only 300 metres from the hotel with various kinds of huts, a good caravan 
area and tent places. The conference price will most likely be less than 100 Euros (600 FIM) 
covering welcome reception and the banquet. We know that coming over to Finland will be 
expensive to many of you, but we hope that our conference with its reasonable pricing will help 
you in budgeting your trip to Finland.

As the work of the organising committee (with Risto Vahakainu as chairman) continues next year, 
we'll provide more information about the conference through e-mail and newsgroups, and of 
course through a www link. Until
then you are welcome to use Risto's private e-mail for your questions: { mailto:risto.vahakainu@xxxxxxxxxxx }risto.vahakainu@xxxxxxxxxxx 
.

With season's greetings we wish you all welcome to Finland next year!

The Finnish DX Association (FDXA)

Another EDXC Marconi broadcast 
The Adventist World Radio is pleased to broadcast the special Marconi program that was 
prepared specifically for broadcast over WRMI, and we will give due credit on air.  Because of the 
holiday season and change of personnel, it was necessary to record several editions of Wavescan 
in advance.  We are therefore planning to broadcast the Marconi program in Wavescan on a 
Sunday around the middle of January.  I am currently working out the details with our AWR staff 
in England and I should have a specific date within a day or two.  I will issue a news release giving 
the full details just as soon as possible. New Year Greetings, Adrian M. Peterson, DX Editor. (via 
Cobisi). No news release received before this DX-Window was issued. AWR Wavescan is heard 
well here in Denmark from Moosbrunn, Austria Sundays 0830-0900 on 9660 (Ed)

The DX-Window is a bi-weekly electronic newsletter made for members of the Danish Shortwave 
Club International. Its content is mainly based upon loggings and other information from our own 
members, but in a few cases extraordinary news from other DX-ers are included. Thus we depend 
on YOUR contributions which should be sent to the editor. Please use our format and add your 
last name in brackets after each item. All times are UTC and frequencies in kilohertz.

The DX-Window concentrates on news and loggings of rare shortwave broadcasting stations, 
particularly domestic services. It must be news compared to our latest Domestic Broadcasting 
Survey.  The editor is free to ?cut hard? and bring only the hottest items, he receives. 

Reproduction of items from the DX-Window is allowed, provided that due credit is given to the 
contributor and to the DX-Window.

The DX-Window is distributed in two versions: 
A)   As an attachment in rtf-format with all original graphics, or 
B)   as a large e-mail in txt-format where the graphics may be missing, but with no attachment.
You can get your copy changed to the other version at any time, just by telling the distributor.

Loggings or schedules of regularly heard stations should NOT be sent to the DX Window. Such 
loggings can be sent to our SW tips editor Klaus-Dieter Scholz on {mailto:kdscholz@xxxxxx }kdscholz@xxxxxx . Schedules 
are welcomed by the editor of World News, Noel R. Green on { mailto:nrg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx }nrg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
