[HCDX] Loggings from Victoria, BC



A pretty decent morning with high MUF. An interesting potpourri of loggings:

AUSTRALIA 15480, 1559-, HCJB Australia Apr 5 Finally hear this one with a fair signal. ID at 1600 as 'HCJB, Voice of the great southland', and into Ham Radio Today. Better when rechecked at 1655 with religous play. Very good reception at 1713, with locally produced program. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

UNITED KINGDOM 15245, 1606-, BFBS Apr 5 Fair reception with sports scores easilly over cochannel ?Channel Africa, though the latter is improving (in French). Parallel to much better 13860 (?Tashkent) in the clear. Actually 13860 is very slightly ahead of 15245, so I'm not positive of the sites. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

JORDAN 11690, 1611-, Radio Jordan Apr 5 English news about Iraq, and then about North Korea. Fair to good reception only, but at least they're in English. 16:13 prolonged music bridge, and repeat of news headlines (about Iraq), weather forecast. TC for 15 past 7. Then ID for 'Radio Jordan 9? FM'. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

VIETNAM 11630, 1616-, Voice of Vietnam Apr 5 Nice English ID at 1617, and into a modern male Vietnamese vocal. Good to very good reception well over a cochannel. Parallel to a bit weaker 13740 which is in the clear. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

UNITED ARAB EMIRATES DUBAI 13675, 1633-, UAE Radio Dubai Apr 5 FM relay with British DJ with news and announcements. Into Arabic at 1635. Fair reception. No parallels noted. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

LITHUANIA (NOT) 9925, 1637-, Radio DAT Apr 5 I've been checking for them, and have heard nothing for quite some time. Their website (www.datradio.com) has not been updated either, and the RA link is down. Anyone have any information on what happened? Also I think Lithuania has leased out it's transmitter to others at this time. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

NORWAY 13800, 1641-, Radio International Apr 5 Good reception with talk in presumed Farsi, with telephone quality audio. Interview of a male by a woman. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

FRANCE 15605, 1701-, Radio France International Apr 5 English to Africa with nice ID at 1701 and into world news. Good reception. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

TAIWAN 11550, 1706-, Radio Taipei International Apr 5 Looking for Radio Ukraine listed hear for A03, but instead hear Radio Taipei in English with news. Fair to good. Comment on HFCC A03 which I'm using...........Crummy! No where near as good as the ILG database, but who knows when A03 will be released!. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)

ALASKA 12105, 1710-, KNLS Apr 5 Very good reception in Russian over cochannel (?Greece). Equally strong on all of my SW antennae. Religous discussion between men and women. (Salmaniw, Victoria, BC)
