[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs June 8-9-10-11, 2015
** CHINA. 7435, June 9 at 0922, unfortunately awake, I am rewarded by some Firedragon jamming, which is getting to be a rarity rather than CNR1 jamming; but nothing on 7435 scheduled to account for it here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1777, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 17660, June 11 at 1325, CNR8 in Korean with VG signal, at least as strong and less fading than the close-to-transpolar CRI East Turkistanis on 17560, 17630, 17650, so I think it`s from eastern China, or south China, as the domestic service in Korean could be aimed toward NE China about the same azimuth onward and USward; and Solsticial overnight MUF holding up this high. It`s a new service, site not yet known and not registered with HFCC. After 1400 it should be colliding with Saudi in French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1777, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5025, June 9 at 0538, R. Rebelde music is rather distorted. This transmitter/frequency usually manages to modulate OK (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGST)
** CUBA. 12060, June 9 at 0532, 2-tone pulse jamming with some fading on this second harmonic of 6030 vs R. Martí there, but none of that here. Weaker than somewhat different sounding pulse jamming on 11930 vs R. Martí fundamental, which of course is never on the air at night. Next check at 0925 June 9, 12060 and 11930 pulse jamming still audible, and also weaker jamming on 11960 which would be 2 x 5980 Martí (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1500, KPGM Pawhuska OK, daytimer suspected of nighttiming as monitored from Enid in several previous logs vs KSTP: on June 10 for the OK Mozart festival I happen to be in Bartlesville OK, joint city for this station, and am hearing the same kind of conflict. First on caradio around 0305 UT, Cards baseball on both 1500 and jointly owned Bartian station 1400 KWON. Cards promo break at 0359 UT has different content, but at 0400 UT rejoining // game coverage without any local IDs. Unlike in the daytime with large local signal, at night even this close to site (apparently the single nondescript stick right next to US 60 about halfway between the cities), at a hotel on east side of B`ville, one can null KSTP or KPGM with the tell-tale SAH between them. Other observations:
102.7, K274AJ, is Bartlesville translator of KRPS 89.9 Pittsburg KS (apparently its only one, or the only one in IDs), and thus the only local quality signal with classical music and NPR. You might think that 88.7 KWTU Tulsa, the all-classical offshoot of KWGS 89.5, would be just fine in Bartlesville, but suffers ACI from 88.5, apparently 20 kW KBQC Independence KS while KWTU is only 5 kW.
93.3, K227CQ, is local Bartlesville translator of 1400 KWON, a.k.a. KCD Enterprises.
93.7, K229CQ, another Bartian translator, IDs as ``Bott Radio Network 91.5``, i.e. relaying KARF Independence KS. But licensee of the translator is different, Community Broadcasting, Inc.
94.9, K235CG, new translator in Ponca City of KOSU 91.7 is confirmed active, heard coming and going, considerable range east and west on US 60. By the time it`s lost on the way to Bartlesville (along with 91.7 too), the full-power KOSN Ketchum relay of KOSU is taking over from NE of Tulsa. And we are finally hearing KOSU ID and promo the 94.9 ``powerful signal in Ponca``, i.e. 250 watts!
90.7, KAYE, Tonkawa OK at Northern Oklahoma College is confirmed as active even in the summer June 9-10, rock music, but you need to be fairly close to Tonkawa for its 1.2 kW to capture the frequency from Wichita`s KYWA but which is surprisingly listed as only 3 kW.
104.5, KZZW, Mooreland OK, ``In Balance Music Radio``, west of Enid, which I have trouble getting in Enid, was coming in well enough before sunset on US 60 north of Enid, but decided to broadcast dead air from 0031 to 0041 UT June 11 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENIING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7555, June 9 at 0535, WEWN is missing, nor the other two frequencies, 11520 and 11870, which might have propped out but not 7555; by 0923 recheck, now it`s on with VG signal, and at 0927 check so are 11870 and 11520 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 17720, June 8 at 1735, while dining at a restaurant beside an east-facing window, I again find good reception on the G8 with whip only: strongest signal on band (SSOB) is this with Horn of Africa talk, 1740 HOA music, 1744, bit of `Rock of Ages`, revelation as religious-Christian. Uplooked later, it`s AWR, 145 degrees via Nauen, GERMANY at 1730-1800 daily since June 1 in Oromo, so close to off the back hereward. (However, at 1700-1728 in Kiswahili on 17720, AWR site is MADAGASCAR, aimed almost directly hereward, 310 degrees.) Was stronger than 17775 KVOH, 17790 WRMI, and even 17895 VOA-GB; but at 1758 recheck, much weaker and overcome by REE IS about to open 17715 // 17855 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
