![Logs](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/logs.gif) ** CANADA. 15034-USB, May 19 at 1812, CHR, Trenton Military, with aviation weather conditions as of 1800z for Halifax, soon Greenwood and Gander special report as of 1808. First time in weeks heard with any info other than ``no report received`` from any/everywhere. Still interspersed with some NRRs (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 2940+, May 19 at 0605, HJNT, Radio Huellas, Cali, as previously IDed, carrier obviously there despite high storm noise level here. I am surprised that there have been so few reports of this second harmonic, in fact the only active Colombian (almost)-SW station. Where are the DXers elsewhere in North America, let alone Latin America? Maybe just as well, as attempts to QSL it might lead to its demise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 9640, May 18 at 2208, RHC Spanish suptorted; wiggle that patchcord! Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 13739.240, May 19 at 1345, RHC auto-knocked off 13740.00 for the second day in a row. Hope wolfie finally catch it too, having found it non-knocked when he chex. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But not always the same things all the time. This is during `En Contacto` DX program, but it doesn`t finish at 1350! By then I am on 15230 hearing the RHC IS amid the show, and more Arnie, until `En Cia del Dr` finally starts at 1357. Very unusual as RHC Spanish programming is normally within one minute of nominal. Something`s always wrong at RHC. [and non]. 15140 should be // 15230, but at 1355 May 19 a JBA signal on 15140 I cannot match with traces of modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Could Oman have resumed on 15140 from 9620, where there is also a JBA carrier? Nothing else is known on 15140 --- Except: could it be 2 x 7570 WRMI, which is aimed right at us with Supreme Master TV?? Next time must try to mod-match that. Harmonix from Okeechobee are extremely rare. WRMI`s other 7 MHz which could multiply onto 19m would be: 15460 and 15560. The latter has happened due to mistuning, but soon repaired. By 1425 May 19, still no RHC on 15140, and 15230 is S9 but JBM. Something`s always wrong at RHC. With so few extracontinental SW signals propagating well, we are indeed fortunate that RHC provide such a rich supply of abnormalities to capture! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** DENMARK. See USA: WTWW ** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sun May 19 at 0009, The Mighty Farty KBC via GERMANY, rock music finally good signal a biweek after QSY from 5960, but S9+10/20 still not enough to overcome nearby storm noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 9830, May 18 at 2204, VOT English is on but VP vs RTTY CCI. ANF on R75 helps. 2205 dead air for a minute at the same time RTTY stops, S8-S5 and somewhat muffled modulation resuming at 2206 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1982 monitoring: confirmed Saturday May 18 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, S9-S7 following IS/ID loop, and upcut JIP missing first 8 words, ``1982 ---``, automation out of alignment. NOT confirmed UT Sun May 19 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, but something else. This has never been a WOR time and is not on WRMI skedgrid, but WRTH Update listed it! Confirmed UT Sun May 19 at 0340 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, barely audible vs storm noise level, about 27 minutes into, so started circa 0313. Had to quickly plug in the external longwire to hear enough. Next: 2130 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to NE 0130 UT Monday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0230 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to NE 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW 0330 UT Monday WRMI 9955 to SSE 0930 UT Monday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW ND 1815 UT Monday IRRS 7290 Romania ND 0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE 0800 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW [2 editions] ND 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE 2130 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v [ex-2100 on May 15] to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE [it appears we will now be running on a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, so freshest new airings are on weekends] Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WRMI: See CUBA [and non]. 15140 ** U S A. 5085, May 18 at 2212, WTWW-2 with rock music, S9/S9+10 but not enough vs storm noise level. Wonder how long this has been on; all day? 15810-, May 19 at 1347, WTWW-3 active for the second morning in a row, rock music, obviously minus but not remeasured to 15809.918 like yesterday. S9 to S9+10, about the same as neighbor 15825 WWCR-1 both getting a sporadic-E boost. And as expected, no sign of WMR Denmark on 15805. Stig Hartvig Nielsen says, ``World Music Radio on 15805 kHz is probably the station on 19 m with the lowest power - and with the most simple aerial - so obviously that makes it a DX catch. It is not a signal you can rely on for regular listening - tuning in and then expecting a fine signal. Most of the time, the signal will be absent or barely audible - in the areas where the signal propagates into (Russia, Southern Europe, Northern Scandinavia, Brazil, North America - and even once in Thailand). I had imagined that that would have created more interest among DX'ers. I have just purchased a new 3 element yagi for 15805 kHz, so hopefully soon there will be some improvement in signal strength :-)`` 15810-, WTWW-3 is still on with JBA carrier at 1815 May 19, and this time I check 5085 in the daymiddle --- yes! It is also on with S7 of country/rock music vs S6 noise level. I think there be a correlation between these two activities of WTWW-3 and WTWW-2; meanwhile WTWW-1 is nominal on 9475, not 5830, with SFAW, or rather as on website wtww.us homepage, SFAWBN, which also displays a long-outdated Dave Ramsey on 9930 claim; plus contradictory times for TOITO. Searching the site for 15810 gets no hits (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1911 UT May 19 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
