[HCDX] Weekend DX



PERU   6019.49  R. Victoria  0717-0900 Usual rel. pgmming w/M and W hosts.  W preaching was on the verge of tears!!  Instru. mx at 0724 and M anncr w/TC and ment of Frontera.  Then different M w/ment of Christiana and internacional.  0725 TC again, and canned pgm promo by M over mx ending w/addr in Bolivia.  Rel. pgm continued after 0730 w/same M and W anncrs.  0753 exact same promo as hrd earlier at 0725.  Rel. pgm continued.  0814-0816 deadair, then choral mx, and pgm continued.  Big bdcster signed on on 6020 at 0859 wiping out the signal.   Fair strength but some slop QRM.  //weaker 9720.  Interesting that Brian Alexander and I heard this independently of each other at the same time.  (Valko 2 Sept.)

MALAYSIA  7295  Traxx FM  1055 "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel", and into another Dance song.  Nice EG ID jingle at 1100, one short and one long time tick, then W w/nx.  Not as strong as yesterday and it seemed disturbed as 
well.  (Valko 2 Sept.)

ZANZIBAR   11735  R. Tanzania Zanzibar  2051- AR mx at t/in, 2054 M anncr in SW w/brief anmnt, mx bridge, nice clear ID then tlk by different M in AR and also SW.  Studio M anncr returned at 2058 w/anmnt including another ID.  2059 short instru. NA, and off at 2100.  Good signal.  (Valko 2 Sept.)

BOLIVIA   4690.2  R. San Miguel (pres.)  1003-1025 Apparent nx pgm w/actualities, some quite long but all at a lower lvl than the anncrs mic lvl.  Seemed like a remote bdcst after 1018.  M anncr sounded like the one I hrd in the past.  Faded pretty quickly after 1025.  Audio has the 'feel' of a spur, and thought this might be a Rebelde spur at first.  (Valko 3 Sept.)

UNID.  4925.97  W anncr at 1025 t/in, then mx bridge, and tlk by M anncr.  Wasn't strong enough to recognize lang., only able to distinguish between M and W and mx.  Just too weak and too much QRM from the CODAR and 4925 ZY.  Maybe a spur??  Not hrd during checks on several subsequent dates.  (Valko 3 Sept.)

PAPUA NEW GUINEA   3905  R. New Ireland  1035- long tlk by M in PD w/ments of next Saturday, program, Nat. Broadcasting Corp.,"Radio ?? FM", province, Highlands, Monday, etc.  M joined in at times.  Caught a nice ID when I returned for a check at 1118.  Good signal and free of the Ham WX 
net.  (Valko 3 Sept.)

ANTARCTICA   15476  R. Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel (tent.)  2056-2103*  Could only hear individual anmnts by W then M, and 
ending w/song.  No chance to copy.  Just too weak.  Seemed to stay on for a couple minutes before the plug was pulled around 2303:30.  Tnx Bob Wilkner tip.  (Valko 3 Sept.)

HONDURAS   3339.96  R. Misiones Int. 1008- Lively SP Rel. mx.  1015 W anncr in slight echo, and back to mx.  1032 canned M anncr very briefly w/ID finally, then back to mx w/lively LA mx.  Always a strong signal but extremely weak modulation.  Makes it tough to ID.  Still on the air while Hurricane Felix was making landfall.  (Valko 4 Sept.)
 
BRAZIL   4905.05  R. Anhanguera (Araguaina)  0918-0930, End of soft ZY song and very brief PT anmnt by M, then another song.  Easy religious-like song to 0929 full canned ID by M, then back to more mx.  Good signal but very noisy.  (Valko 8 Sept.)

BOLIVIA   4699.41  R. San Miguel  0930 Apparent pgm intro by M w/bird chirping SFX and instru. flute mx pgm.  Pgm feature w/M and W hosts tlking and occas. mx.  2 pre-recorded segments by men reporters twice.  Definite ment of onda corta at 0949.  Used the same instru. mx throughout the pgm.  1001 pgm outro w/same instru. flute mx.  Long canned ad block 1001-1008, one w/poss. ment of R. San Miguel at 1003, the another w/definite ment of R. San Miguel at 1004.  1007 pres. rel. pgm promo by M w/ment of R. San Miguel and "...de Dios" along w/easy mx.   Had a pgm in an Indian lang. w/M host and instru. and vcl CP mx after 1015.  Fading by 1020.  Noisy.  Hrd on this freq earlier in the week too.  (Valko 8 Sept.)

PERU   5039.21  R. Libertad de Junin (pres.)  1035 surprised to find this here w/beautiful instru. OA tinkly mx and joined by M anncr in echo (s/on anmnts??) ending w/poss. ment of Junin at 1037:10.  Into nice OA campo mx w/W vcl at 1038 and continuing w/nonstop OA mx.  Fading quickly in morning twilight unfortunately and barely getting any audio by 1050.  Carrier still 
there at 1100.  Tough to ID here.  (Valko 8 Sept.)

UNID.  5973.55  Was getting a decent carrier here from about 0930.  Still in there at 1132 check so not LA QTH.  No audio noted.  Hrd on both receivers.  (Valko 8 Sept.)
