Re: [HCDX] Radio Belarus English Bcts. - Need Help, Please

["Don Moman VE6JY" <ve6jy@xxxxxxxx>]

Just happened to read your message at 0155, but checking the frequencies
you mention yielded only weak carriers, with nothing loud enough for any
clues.  This using directional antenna - log periodic and 40m yagis.
As an aside, and not necessarily relevant at 0200, but conditions were
quite decent earlier ( just after 2000 utc, 2 pm local time)  as I was
hearing 40m SSB signals from UN7TX, UR9IDX and others, coming directly
over the N pole.  The "S" beacon near 7039 khz, presumably located near
Archangel was also noted,  and the endless loop of CP17 de L9CC in
Morse, tx site possibly in China, was noted near 7065 khz.  This daytime
DX on 40 is to be expected in the short days of December and January,
but I am always amazed   that it happens quite regularly much later in
the season  with so much sunlight all around.

J.D., I think that Radio Belarus is pretty much a right-off here in
North 
America.  On the west coast they're virtually never heard due to the
poor 
state of their transmitters and much too low choice of frequencies.  I
used 
to hear them from time to time on 11960 in our local evenings, but they 
haven't used that frequency in our evenings for years.  As they still
are 
heard in the European evenings, I bet they are still "attempting" a
pseudo 
North American service, but more likely aiming their transmitters at the

few Europeans up at the time you are looking for.........Walt Salmaniw,
