** CUBA. 11845, Oct 31 at 0645, S3/S5 pulse jamming against nothing on
a Radio Martí daytime-only frequency abandoned years ago. See also
ROMANIA [and non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** FRANCE. 21640.18V, Oct 31 at 1533, MiniTransAt, S3/S5 direct, once
again constantly oscillating; at 1543 with race rankings, mostly in
French, UTwente reads out min 21640.124, max 21640.156 at S9+5/15;
1544.5 starts classic rock music medley fill, only a few sex of each
tune which must drive Shazaam mad? 1558 brief announcement, and
closing James Bond theme to 1600*. No 17800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA [and non]. 11930 AM, Oct 31 at 0642, with Cuban jamming
adds up to S7/S9, readable but annoying. NOT DRM as shown on earlier
version of RRI own sked. But not any more:
https://www.rri.ro/en_gb/winter_broadcast_frequencies_2023_2024-2692610
It also includes countless wooden transmissions as if all senders were
in use. Would DRM do better against jamming? Doubt it. HFCC format
https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B23&broadc=RRO
has no column for DRM or not, tho could be placed under NOTES. The
master frequency sked, still not updated since Oct 27, does claim
11930 is N = numérique = digital; NOT.
Meanwhile received reply from English Dept., to my previous two logs:
``Hi, Glenn, We're sorry about this whole business. Unfortunately
there is not much we can do about it :/ We are however happy to hear
about reception quality on your frequency. Best wishes, The English
Service`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
