Glenn Hauser Log Roundup May 13-19

Please note and spread the word - for those not on a list where my
almost-daily all-band but mainly SW log reports appear -- or for those
who are but find this a more convenient archive, weekly merged
roundups of all these reports in their original form are posted early
every UT Thursday via:
http://www.worldofradio.com/Hauserlogs.html

The latest one direct:

** CUBA. 6060, May 20 at 0612, RHC English with Chief Meteorologist
providing hardly-needed weather info for the NW Hemisphere, but big
humbuzz again on this frequency; while 6100 & 6165 are equally good;
6000 is off; and 5040 in Spanish. Ivo keeps reporting 5040 in
``wrong`` language before and after 06; but maybe now it could be the
``right`` language if intentionally changed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ETHIOPIA [non]. WRMI new skedgrid dated May 10 via wrmi.net at very
bottom shows A-21 relays via TDF FRANCE, ending with:

``M07 Projet: Raadiyyoni Dirree Shaggar 17:00 17:30 0:30 Ethiopie 48W
Mul ISS 15445 19 500 4/4/.8 128 7123456``

So unlike the others, it`s projected. Google translate identifies the
name as Somali, which is a minolity language in Ethiopia. Removing the
first word, however, if guesses Hindi, in neither case translating the
second and third words, must be proper names. Broadly searching on the
full name gets nothing but the Bulgarian DX blog where this is also
mentioned today.

I check 15445 May 20 at 1700, but indeed no signals yet into Kuwait
SDR or UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** MALI. 5995, May 20 at 0611, for second night, Bamako is missing.
How about the day frequency after 0800, 9635? Seldom heard here and I
think was already sporadic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** NEW ZEALAND [non]. 11725, May 20 at 0603, no signal from RNZI, tho
Vanuatu manages a JBA carrier on 11835. Since it`s Thursday, maybe
RNZI sked askew for maintenance chex. Also have signals on 11895,
11995, 12030, 12050. 11895 is usual NMI; the others? Per Aoki, 11995 =
RFI Hausa; 12030 BBC French via Sao Tome; 12050 Ndadrason via
Woofferton (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2086 monitoring: confirmed UT Thu May 20 at
0130 on WRMI 5010, S9+15 but noisy into Bonaire SDR.

good idea!

First WOR 2087 broadcasts confirmed on WRMIs, UT Fri May 21 at 0130,
on 7780, S9 and noisy into UTwente; and 5850, VG S9+35/40 into KB0FX
remote in MO, also VG direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 5890, May 20 at 0609, WWCR Dead Brother Scare, but
with Dead Gene Scott audio from 5935 clearly audible mixing at
somewhat lower level. 5935? Also such a modulation mix at about equal
levels, and S9+30! Among several dead gospel huxters WWCR propagates
but now WWCR outdoes itself, two at a time, twice! In all these years
of SWBC, WWCR still doesn`t have its basic act together; human error,
or what?

When both signals be strong as this we`ve easily heard
inter-modulation = leapfrog mixing product on 5980, another 45 kHz
upward --- but not now, not even a carrier under the Cuban jamming
against nothing. Well, WWCR manages to mix itself up one way or
another! How about the other two WWCRs? At 0613, also dead the air on
4840 at S9+20/30; 3215 is TOMBS alone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2087)
