[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs January 24-25

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

** AUSTRALIA. The 14-15 UT Wednesday hour is one of many good times for
stimulating discussion on Radio Australia, 9590. Jan 24 until 1435, All in the
Mind featured Daniel Bennett discussing his latest book on religion; and
Philosophers Zone from 1435 presented a talk by John Searle about
consciousness. Fortunately, RA is back to relaying R. National instead of Local
Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. R. Brasil Central, 11815 is often audible here around 0700, much
weaker than 11780, of course. Jan 25 at 0656 talking about Goiás and Goiânia,
``Brasil Central, programa de qualidade 24 horas``, SINPO 35533. Presumably the
same station with music amidst CODAR on 4985.0 at 0647 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. Afghanada, the CBC Radio 1 drama on Canadian forces in Afghanistan,
was supposed to be 12 episodes thru January 19, but current CBC schedule shows
another episode Jan 26 and the program`s page displays this self-contradictory
info --- so is this a rerun, or has it been extended with new episodes, and
until when? It`s UT Fridays at 0030 and 1530, +1/2/3/4 hours in timezone
repeats. Nice for the Canux they are doing something like this, but after
listening to ep 1, decided there were better ways for an Okie to spend 6+ hours
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** COLOMBIA. Looking for R. Líder, 6140v, reported to have reactivated, but no
sign of it Jan 24 around 0610, but DW wasn`t making it either. Nor on Jan 25 at
0645 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. R. Rebelde, 5025 was nothing but a big open carrier, Jan 25 at 0650;
RHC on 6000 was missing a few minutes earlier, but back on by 0650 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ECUADOR. R. Quito, 4819.9, at 0644 Jan 25 with ID, timecheck and Andean
music; not too distorted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GABON [and non]. Afropop music distraxion, Jan 25 at 1507 check was on
17635, but Africa Numéro Un was missing from 17630 --- just weak signal in
English there, CRI via Mali; at 1550 recheck, 17635 was off and 17630 ANU was
also still off. Jan 24 at 1445, Afropop was on 17660 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. XEXQ, 6045, presumed, again audible with classical music Jan 25 at
0631; and Jan 24 at 0610 check it was mixing at about equal level with
attenuated Korea-via-Canada, with fluxuating SAH rate (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. XEYU, 9599.2 in a dialog about something, monitored Jan 25 at 1459
to hear the het go off as presumed China quit 9600. Previously also heard
around 0610, but not on Jan 24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. VOA Talk to America, via Lampertheim 11655, Jan 25 at 1450,
discussing alternatives to petroleum, had periodic very brief audio drop-outs,
both on host studio audio and on phone line (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A. Two very strong WYFR signals on 9715 and 9680 overload the receiver,
so am not sure if the English and Spanish mixing product I hear on 9645, with a
het from the off-frequency Brasilian, is receiver- or transmitter-produced, but
now I have heard a matching one on the other side, 9750, Jan 25 at 0650 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WTJC, still absent from 9370, Jan 25 at 0652 check, as well as Jan 24
at 0610 and 1444 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WWCR-4 was again on 5765 instead of scheduled 7465, Jan 24 at 1445
check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
