re Brazil RB2
6040 RB2 Curitiba reports from Brazil from first on Tuesday Jan 20.
checked this RB2 px in past weeks,
very irregular service, bcast only now and then.
Logs
11933.440 heard only Dec 20 til Dec 26, later not anymore,
maybe due of bad propagation cond,
the 49 and 31 mb Brazilians logged always stronger than 25mb lately.
But tonight Jan 22 at 2210 UT heard undoubtedly RB2 on 11935.003 kHz here
in Germany, and also 6040.001 at 2150 UT
(co-ch 6039.989 CNR Nei Menggu Mongolian service which started
at 2150 UT, heard Chinese time signal at 2200 UT)
Dec 20 9724.981
Dec 21 9724.985
Jan 15 9724.959
Jan 21 9724.969
yesterday Jan 21 and today noted always 9724.981 kHz as peak string only,
very poor signal.
Nothing heard here in Europe on v9724-9725 kHz tonight between 22 to 23
UT.

BRAZIL 9725.0, Jan 22 at 0644, fair signal with Brazuguese call-in, 0646
mentions R. Nove de Julho, São Paulo, but this isn`t 9820v. It`s the
reactivated RB2 from Curitiba, Paraná, which has been back a few weeks but
this is the first time I`ve ever heard it during my regular bandscans
between 06 and 07 UT, so just went 24 hours? Quickly confirmed as such by
finding much weaker //s on 11935, and 6040, the latter the last one just
to
come up per reports from Brasil. Previous logs put 9 MHz channel 15 Hz
low,but compared to NZ on 11725, it seems closer than that. Format is now
Catholic, as if yet another one of those were needed on ZY SW. Apparently
many are inter-related if not simulcast.
All three of these RB2s missed being entered into the WRTH 2015. They last
appeared in the WRTH 2010, the upper two as *inactive, all 7.5 kW then and
with the same callsign ZYE725; normally each frequency gets a distinct,
usually consecutive call number, as evidenced by numerous other multi-band
stations. Strangely, 6040 and 9725 were named R. Clube B2, while 11935 was
still R. Clube Paranaense. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
