DX Listening Digest 19-23; World of Radio 1985

Wednesday, June 12 2019

The original post to our websites had messed up diacritics - accents as Ron Howard pointed out. I`m on a new computer with different word processing. Corrected versions have now been uploaded -- I hope for all to see.

Wednesday, June 12 2019

** CHINA. 13530, June 11 at 1344 CNR1 jammer is JBA, but enough to
match // 11785. Also at 1351 stronger 13870 at S5-S7; 14900 at S7-S9;
and at 1352, 15970 at S3-S5. Aoki confirms all are SOH frequencies,
but 14900 SOH relaying RFA. No other WOOBs found 12-16 MHz (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9640, June 10 at 2205, RHC is distorted and crackling.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 17550, June 11 at 2028, R. Kuwait with woman in Arabic,
music, S0-S3 on C&W Nam service at seasonal audibility peak (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, June 11 at 0612, VON is again/still OFF (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1985 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
June 9 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, very poor thru summer daytime absorption
off side of the beam

Also confirmed UT Monday June 10 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, fair & fadey

Also confirmed UT Monday June 10 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, fair & fadey

Also confirmed UT Monday June 10 from 0259 on Area 51 webcast; and at
0326 on WBCQ 5130.37, S9+10 but noisy

Also confirmed UT Monday June 10 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, S9 but noisy
and not upcut

Richard Langley reports: ``Good reception on Monday, 10 June, on 7290
kHz using the U. Twente SDR receiver. Some lightning QRN. Transmitter
s/on at about 1811:30 UT. Dead air for a few minutes and then random
audio for a minute or so and then the Aïda Triumphal March theme. WoR
1985 began at about 1816:30 with no "upcut." Ran the full show with
IRRS ID at the end and then into the news report -- Richard Langley``

Also confirmed UT Tuesday June 11 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair S9-S8.
Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v [and/or 2130]
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780

[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. 7505v, June 11 at 0612, WRNO is still OFF. Have not heard a
sign of it for over a week; not that II miss it. Is there anything
about this at http://www.wrnoworldwide.com/ ? Of course not! But
webcast is running June 12 at 0440 in English, and headed by this
astounding claim: ``Today, one out of every six people in the world
owns a shortwave radio and another 40% have Internet access``. Sez
who? Ask six random people if they have SW and one will say yes?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15610, June 11 at 2026 is S9-S7 in English, definitely on as
usual, tho Ivo said June 10 that it`s ``very rarely on the air``,
scheduled at 19-24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15825, June 11 at 2027, WWCR is S9+15/25, obvious sporadic E
boost above normal JBA signal; I keep an eye on the DXmaps MUF, but
remains way below 88 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330.120V, June 12 at 0145, WBCQ with dead air instead of
Brother HyStairical, still so at 0217. Slighty varying, measured at
0154. First noticed on caradio scan. Offset frequency means NOT the
superstation, which it now seems won`t be on before July, maybe
testing late June. We can hardly wait for the flat-earthers to start
programming as the Super-stition.

5130.437, June 12 at 0157, WBCQ also on here, also dead air and still
at 0217 recheck; maybe modulated earlier for UT Wed ham show?

No signal on 7490v, normally off by now anyway; not a trace of 3265v

Glenn Hauser logs June 8-9, 2019

Sunday, June 09 2019

** CHINA. 12500, June 8 at 1254, JBA signal, presumed CNR1 jammer vs
Sound of Hope as in Aoki/NDXC. No other WOOB ones noted now (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5040, June 9 at 0550, RHC English with big hum during jazz
song, yet better than any of the 49m //s: 6165 S9+10 JBM; 6100 S9+20
JBM; 6060 off as always now; 6000 S9+20/10 undermodulated for a poor
runner-up. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 17550.0, June 9 at 2103, R. Kuwait, Arabic from S0 to S3,
just for us in C&W USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, June 8 at 0614, VON is S9+10/20, but just barely
modulating! About like competitor for the JBM crown, 6165 RHC.

7255-, June 9 at 0558, VON is S9 to S9+10, but again JBM during
drumming IS, which is great to hear when possible (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, June 8 at 1545 UT, K17JN-D, the 3ABN satellator
constituting Enid`s only local TV signal, is on the air and back to
``normal``, i.e. active programming on -1, -3 and –5, black dead air
on -2, -4, and -6, which nevertheless display same full signal level
on the STB, yet ``NO SIGNAL`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. 9320 // 12080, June 8 at 1238, ``A Whiter Shade Of
Pale`` by Procol Harum, as soon outroed in otherwise Korean
announcement. VOA Korean plays a lot of great music from The American
Songbook, to which K-Pop does not hold a candle. Both these are 250
kW, 21 degrees from Tinang, PHILIPPINES, carrying on well back to the
USA far beyond Koreas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1985 monitoring: Manuel Méndez,
Spain, reports: ``6190, Hamburger LokalRadio, Goehren, 0610-0700,
08-06, English, program “Media Network Plus”, at 0629 ID “Hamburger
LokalRadio...”, and Glenn Hauser’s program “World of Radio”. 25322``

Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reports:
``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 6190 CUSB, June 8:
https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/06/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_8.html
0630-0659 6190 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg to CeEu English Sat, weak to
fair``

Barely confirmed, theme detected, Saturday June 8 at 1430 already
(instead of 1431-) on Hamburger Lokalradio, 9485-CUSB, via Utwente
SDR; as usual huge splash from 9490 Romania. I find best audibility is
in AM with 3 kHz bandwidth, rather than USB.

Confirmed Sat June 8 from *2101:29 on WRMI 9955, cutting on the air
late and JIP WOR at S5-S1; such are the risks of being the very first
program on a given transmission. Still on air at 2108, 2123 chex.

Also confirmed UT Sun June 9 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, VG but with some
deep fading.

Also confirmed UT Sun June 9 at 0327 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, vs high
noise level, more line than storms, and can`t tell where I am in the
show to compute variable start time, but an inserted WA0RCR ID is
clearer.

Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reports:
``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 7265 CUSB, June 9
https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/06/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_9.html

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. I missed checking most of `Allan and Angela Weiner
WorldWide`, UT Sat June 8 from 0000 on WBCQ 7490v et al.,
``quadri-casting``? allegedly on all four frequencies, but John Carver
reports:

``AAWW --- Tonight's show started on time on 7490 after a bit of fill
music. Allan and Angela in the studio. Talk about it finally warming
up in Maine and the black fly problem. Then into talk of the D Day
anniversary. Ramsey calls at 0020 and continues the discussion which
by now has morphed into the treatment of the Jews since the time of
the Romans. Some Trump talk and questions about what's wrong with the
Democrats in Congress. Another phone call at 0030 from a man who
visited Allan and Angela at the station last weekend.

Turning to the superstation, Allan says it should be on the air by
July 1. Parts for the transmitter have been received and the work on
the antenna is almost finished. All that's left on the antenna is to
tighten the reflector screen. Will be testing the last week of June.
Mentioned that the ERP of the antenna would be twenty megawatts.

Phone call at 0047 from Mr. Transistor Norm. Reading of emails at 0056
and closing prayer at 0058. Program was off the air at 0100 and 7490
was off the air at 0104. John, Mid-North Indiana``

Meanwhile, WBCQ has registered with FCC and HFCC a much different
schedule for 9330 than the original imaginary one of a wide variety of
languages and targets for the 24 hours, one hour each; instead:

9330 0300 0700 3,4 BCQ 500 280 0 216 1234567 240519 271019 D Eng

9330 2300 0300 10 BCQ 500 255 0 216 1234567 240519 271019 D Eng
Note: I have all the columns lined up. I HATE wp programs which remove
intentional spaces (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, Saturday June 8, WTWW-2 `Theater Organ in [sic] the
Ozarx` does not start until 2340 when I immediately bring up the
stereo webcast instead. And it lasts 34 minutes until 2414 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1310, June 8 at 0631 UT, Colorado Broadcasters Association
PSA, guess who? 0632 UT refers to KFKA.com, and Colo. Army National
Guard PSA. Last logged presumably on October 18, 2011. It`s U2 5/1 kW,
i.e. ND day, tight slightly clockwise from N/S night pattern not good
for here to the SE of Greeley CO, making me suspect they are now on 5
kW ND day pattern (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 91.7, KOSU, June 8 circa 1345 UT, NPR `Weekend Edition
Saturday` with 3-minute feature; transcript and audio link:

WHA, the oldest public radio station in the country, is digitizing
recordings dating to the 1920s as part of a project called "Preserving
Rural and Women's Programming on Wisconsin Public Radio."
https://www.npr.org/2019/06/08/730898450/university-of-wisconsin-aims-to-preserve-nearly-century-old-public-radio
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6170, June 8 at 1711, JBA talk via Utwente SDR. I`m
hoping by elimination this will be the almost-monthly broadcast of
100-watt Scandinavian Weekend Radio, FINLAND. NZ is on 6170 but
off at 1650 –-- except Saturdays to 1858! This is still well before
summer sunset in Europe, so who knows which it might be? Other SWR
frequencies 5980 and 11720 are empty, while 11690 is full of French,
i.e. CRI via East Turkistan. SWR is often found NOT to be adhering to
its own frequency schedule.

Let us NOTE what WRTH 2019 page 470 says about this: ``The station is
run as a series of temporary licences for 24h on the first Sat local
time for three consecutive months. No transmission in Jan, May, Sep as
required by law, before the club is entitled to a new series of
licences`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7989.6-LSB, approx., early UT June 9 but forgot to note
the time, very poor intermittent talk, can`t really resolve into clear
USB or LSB. Suspect it`s second harmonic of 80m ham, but nothing
audible in 3994-3995 area, less propagable vs summer noise level
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 17550, June 8 at 1811, JBA carrier with Doppler flutter
--- could Kuwait be on earlier than 2000? Nothing else is scheduled;
but with BFO I detect multiple carriers, and seems high-speed RTTY
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
