 WORLD OF RADIO 1432 SUMMARY [last week]
[for much more detail and full attribution of all items, see recent  
 issues of DX Listening Digest]

*World of Radio time changes: IRRS in Europe, Fridays 2030 on 7290
*From Nov 2, one UT hour later on US outlets: WBCQ Wed 2200 on 15420, 
 UT Fridays 0030 on 7415, UT Saturdays 0000 on 5110, Mondays 2300 on

*In local time going off DST, our times appear to be same by local 
 clock
*Radio Solh replaced 17700 by 13830, at 1200-1500 only, quite good  
 here far from Afghanistan; Gospel for Asia also at 1330-1500, but 
 Solh dominates here; from 1500 Solh on 9875, too close to India 9870
*B-08 English from KNLS Alaska: 08 7355, 10 6150, 12 6150 & 6915, 14 
 6150; but Taiwan and Chinese jamming block 6150 at 10 and 12
*English from Austria destined to conclude at yearend; until then, 
 between 1300 and 1330 two different transmissions on 17855 and 13730, 
 both including some English
*Radio Bulgaria on 15700 from 13 to 15 in Bulgarian; formerly 15700 
 had DW Russian from 1400. Wonderful folk music on Bulgaria, such as 
 Monday 1430. But 15700 can put out spikes from 15660 to 15740

 Current, Sask., not CJSW as I said
*IBB resumes blocking CKZU Vancouver 6160, 11-14 UT via Philippines, 
 Chinese and drawing Chicom jamming

 gone to alternative method of CNR-1 main domestic program with echo
*Firedrake still heard here and there, e.g. 7999 at 2118 UT; and on 
 9000, probably blocking jumpy Sound of Hope
*By Oct 28, Firedrake resumed against All India Radio, Mandarin 
 service, 1130-1315 on 11840, 15795, totally blocking it

 longer 5964, 9764, 11814, where they had been since February, March
*Radio República no longer heard between 2200 and 0400 on any known 
 frequencies, gone from SW? Next week supposed to be on via Sackville 
 in mornings on 6100, at 1000 or 1100?
*Anti-Castro speech heard on 40m hamband, sounding like a broadcast, 
 7210-SSB, 1246 UT, W4- and N- calls; maybe around 1330 after DST
*Radio Prague continues with English in our mornings, 1400 on 13580

 Spanish, French, English, Brazilian Portuguese, Hausa, Swahili, at  
 expense of German, Albanian, Polish, Serbo-Croatian, Turkish, 
 Laotian
*DW has replaced two of its best frequencies with one bad one via 
 Rwanda in English at 2100, 15205 and 11865 to 11690 which has RTTY
*DW in German to Europe on 6075 all day via variety of sites, 
 including UAE 20-23 UT, off-frequency 6075.06 to .11, poor signal and 
 modulation
*V. of Greece English program of music, Greek in Style, monitored

 VOG 15650 running later until 1550 UT, then 15630, but now collides

 to give
