[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

CALENDAR OF mostly SW SPECIALS, FAREWELLS

Dates, days and times are strictly UT

This time I am only posting new/update info, which has been integrated into the full Calendar at
http://www.w4uvh.net/calendar.html

UPDATE SUMMARY since last edition:

June 21, Antarctica special confirmed and audio link; June 22-24, RCI Portuguese finale

THURSDAY JUNE 21

2130-2200 British Antarctic Survey special, 9850 & 5950 Skelton UK, 7360 Ascension, confirmed, widely heard in eastern North America and surely in Eurafrica, South America, perhaps Antarctica. Program audio launches from:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/worldservice/programmes/2012/06/120620_antarctic_midwinter_broadcast_2012.shtml
and also linx to previous years` shows (gh)

FRIDAY JUNE 22

UPDATE: According to Tam-tam Canada (French section), RCI Portuguese final transmission will be on Friday 22 (not on June 24) Regards (JM Aubier, France, June 21, dxldyg via DXLD)

I think that`s merely the POV of the program producers, which they also say on the RCI Portuguese site:

http://www.rcinet.ca/portugues/

``22 Junho 2012, 10h56 --- Ouça o último programa --- Hector Vilar apresenta o último [this linx to audio, but as of 1600 UT June 22, there is a 10-minute clip of something else about religion, NOT the finale special yet!]

``Hoje, 22 de junho de 2012, a seção brasileira da RCI é encerrada. A partir de hoje, então, a RCI deixa de transmitir em português para o Brasil. Para marcar o fim deste ciclo, toda a equipe se reuniu para produzir um programa especial.

Cá estou eu dando os últimos toques no derradeiro 'Canadá Direto', que vai ao ar nesta sexta-feira, dia 22. Este programa especial marca o fim da seção brasileira da Rádio Canadá Internacional. Nele, eu converso com Gilda Salomone, Cristiane Hirata, Gisele Dutra, Gabi Veras, Marcelo Paolinelli e Leila Monteiro Lins. Todos falamos dos momentos mais marcantes vividos ao longo dos últimos 8 anos do 'Canadá Direto'.``

But normal procedure is for the same program to be repeated on Saturday & Sunday, and I see no reason why this will not still happen as other RCI programming continues thru Sunday.

Per HFCC, RCI Portuguese schedule in UT, Fri/Sat/Sun: 2100-2129 15455, 2200-2229 17860, 2300-2329 13760

This conflicts with the schedule on the RCI page which frames something from Facebook, in local time:

``Sexta-feira, sábado e domingo 17:00-17:29 (Freq: 15455 e 17860) 18:00-18:29 (Freq: 17860) 19:00-19:29 (Freq: 13760).`` That would require a 4-hour difference from UT! Which is correct only for a few western states, not the usual UT-3 standard of ``Hora de Brasília``. However, RCI`s transmission schedule still shows the two frequencies at 2100.
