[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs April 19-20

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

** AUSTRALIA. RA is still abruptly cutting off a 5-minute `Perspective`
commentary in the middle of it at 1358* Thursdays on 9580, as monitored April
19. One must quickly retune to weaker // 9590 for the rest of it; no sign-off,
no apology, no retune advice given (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GABON. Afropop Music Jammer, April 20 at 1327 was on 17627.0, hetting CRI
English via Chile on 17625. No sign of Sawt al-Amal here, or much else from hi
latitudes on 16m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. NHK World, Radio Japan, April 19 at 1329 concluding Indonesian, and
into Thai on 7200, with QRM not only from the Yakutsk Warbler, but also splash
from a much stronger NHK transmission in Japanese on 7190! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN [non]. Ran across La Bañera de Ulises at a new time, 0545-0600* UT Thu
April 19 on REE 9630 and 5965 via Costa Rica, lo-fi. Time signals at 0600
overlapped briefly with RN Dutch via Bonaire opening on 9625, then 9630
immediately off.

REE has pulled a fast one, leaving their old B-06 schedules up at the
previously bookmarked linx, via http://www.rtve.es/rne/ree/

and putting their A-07 schedules at new linx. Full details of current
programming and frequencies:

EL SUEÑO DE ARQUÍMEDES 
UT Tue 0100 15160 11680 9620 9535 6055 6020

There are lots of other excellent shows, mainly talk, if you understand
Castilian and are interested in the subjects
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Check of WRMI, 9955 during flex programming time, UT Thu April 19
found Frecuencia al Día at 0602, but soon ending and 0606 into Tierra
Prometida. Not to be relied upon 168 hours later; no jamming. Fair signal,
aside RTTY on hi side; but not propagating 23 hours later (Glenn Hauser, OKI,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Extremely distorted spur with squeal from something centered at
approx. 7313, April 20 at 0511, mostly talk but some music. Language? Sounded
sorta French, sorta Russian; At 0528 switch to a different announcer and
definitely French intonation; 0529 repetitive music for a few seconds; IS? but
unrecognized. Then into music with a beat. Did not find anything to match
nearby on 41mb. During this hour I usually hear RN Flevo in Dutch on 7310, but
not now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
