(wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 3)
COLOMBIA. 5909.952, July 27 at 0641, tropical music at S8/S9,
better signal than usual from always off-frequency Alcaraván Radio.
Brief burst of ``running water`` ute QRM.
Manuel Méndez in Spain reports: ``Alcaravan Radio 5910 on air again
after about 10 days out. Log in Oleiros, La Coruña, NW of Spain,
Sangean ATS-909X, cable antenna, 8 meters. COLOMBIA, 5910, Alcaraván
Radio, Puerto Lleras, 0450-0526, 27-07, religious and Latin American
songs, Spanish, religious comments, Colombian songs “Llaneras”.
25432.``
However, I don`t think it had been totally off. In regular bandscans I
had been crossing a JBA offset carrier, but not logged. Now there is
also a JBA carrier on 6010, probably Brasil rather than still inactive
sibling station LV de tu Conciencia.
Ron Howard also replied: ``Greetings, Manuel, from California. July
27, at 0742 & 0910 UT, heard a decent level carrier on 5910 kHz, but
no audio at all; normally in the past I always had good audio here.``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2201)
CUBA. 6100, July 27 at 0646, undermodulated Spanish with
humbuzzwhine, no doubt RHC where something`s always wrong.
5025, July 27 at 0650, S9+20/30 of dead air except for some humbuzz,
from R. Rebelde, something`s always wrong at Radio Cuba. David
Crawford, FL replied to my previous reports, July 27 at 0156 UT:
``Tonight's treat is what sounds like video buzz, rather than the
recently-typical Rebelde FM audio, on 5025. And after the one reported
active "sunset" session, HM01 has been quiet again since, at least for
the local midday and sunset schedules. I have not checked the
madrugada scheduled times and freqs.``
Ron Howard, CA replies later on July 27: Cuba (5025) noted at 0743 &
0909 UT, with strong carrier, along with a strong hum, but no audio.
Ron`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2201)
CUBA. 11760, July 28 at 0715, overtime RHC Spanish S9+10 but JBM.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. It`s the only log I make this
late-night due to horrible S9+10 noise level all over the bands:
suspect from neighbor and/or thru power lines. I may have to rely even
more on remote receivers, but many of them also have `line noise`
problems. Abated by 15 UT enough to tell that propagation is now
degraded (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 15230, July 28 at 2316, RHC S9/+10 of dead air. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 11760, July 29 at 0704, RHC extension still on, in Spanish,
S9/+10 and somewhat undermodulated. Also unusually with dirty
parasitic spurs plus/minus 3 kHz. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 6000, July 31 at 0642, RHC English JBM with humwhine,
S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 11950, July 31 at 2349, S9/S4 of dead air from `Mesa Redonda`
alt. Spanish frequency; supposed to be // 6000, which at 2355 is DA or
maybe JBM. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 13650, July 31 at 2347, all-music CRI `Portuguese` relay, now
with dirty spurs about 2.5 kHz plus/minus. Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OOK, WOR)
CUBA. 11670, August 1 at 0646, tonight`s extra RHC, Spanish,
S9+10/20 and undermodulated; also with squeal and dirty spurs about
plus/minus 3 kHz. Same symptom I logged July 29 at 0704 on 11760.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
CUBA. 11760, August 2 at 0629, RHC Spanish prolongation here
tonight, S9+20 and good modulation for a change, no spurs either.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
