** ALGERIA. 15140, Feb 27 at 0726, S4/S5 JBA carrier - first thought
it might be RHC afternoon frequency testing, English at 2000 not heard
for months - but EiBi shows Ifrikya FM, Ouargla on 15140 from 0700,
not in Aoki. At 0729 also have JBA carrier on 17600, the Béchar
frequency from 0700. Springish propcons starting to appear (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ASCENSION. 15490, Feb 17 at 0728, French at S9: BBC at 0700-0729
only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. Was RHC 6000 on tonight? Did not check until 0407 and no
signal. Still greatly improved mod? (Glenn to WOR iog Feb 27)
Replies:
``Just heard them at 0510 in Spanish, but can confirm that there was
nothing an hour earlier. Last night I noted an abrupt cut at 0501:30
during English. Nothing heard for at least the next quarter hour. Tony
Pavick, BC``
Yes, very strong into Masset with Spanish programming and excellent
modulation. Walt Salmaniw, BC (05:10 UTC)``
``RHC was up this morning at 1159:30 UT on 6000 khz in Spanish with a
good strong signal, with less than perfect modulation, but a
listenable signal nonetheless. I did not hear them at the same time
the day before. Tony Pavick, Hope BC``
My further monitoring Feb 27: VG Spanish at 0520 on 6000, still at
0608, 0706, even 0717+ direct at S9+45 good mod level but slight
distortion. If this be only frequency they can run at night, sensible
to split it English/Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2284)
** CUBA. 15230, Feb 27 at 1551, S6/S8 carrier, now with some suptorted
modulation seeming Spanish, so RHC improving slightly (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** JAPAN. 15280, Feb 27 at 0727 S6/S7 music, 0730 Japanese; NHK
scheduled 0655-0950; also a Sound of Hope channel, so subject to CNR1
jamming but none of that now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PHILIPPINES. Re my hearing R. Pilipinas, 15190 still on past 2000
UT Feb 25:
``[bdxc-news] Radio Pilipinas World Service extended hours --- Rumen
Pankov reported (16 Feb) that he had heard Radio Pilipinas at
1730-2030 UT over the previous 3 days on 9925, 12120 and 15190 kHz via
Tinang in Tagalog (Filipino) / English. So with an extra hour
1930-2030 to previously scheduled.
I tuned in yesterday (26 Feb) and, yes, the 1730 broadcast is still on
air until 2030 UTC. Very good reception on 12120 kHz and 15190 kHz,
especially at first (9925 kHz much weaker here). They still announced
just 1730-1930, together with the frequencies, at
sign on, though (anyone noticed if their 0200-0330 transmission has
also been lengthened?) 73 Alan Pennington, Lowe HF-225 Europa,

** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Feb 27 at 0734 UT, ND beacon FBY, FairBurY NE,
