Subject: [HCDX]: North Korean RTTY reception

NORTH KOREA  11536  Thanks to Glenn Hauser, I was able to tune into the 
North Korean central people's news agency (or whatever they're officially 
called) with 100% recovery using my MFJ-462B code reader set at RTTY 170 Hz 
shift, 50 Baud.  Parallel 13580 is equally strong, at 1230 to North 
America.  Although the African stream sounded very strong as well, I was 
unable to decode it on 8020 and 11476.  Usual propaganda in English like 
"The U.S. war mongerers are describing the Korean war as,...".  In view of 
the present interesting developments between North and South Korea, this 
service may be very interesting to monitor.  I've hooked up an old Epson 
printer, so that I'm now able to wake up to the latest developments from 
North Korea, "hot off the press".  If anyone is interested in a sample 
sheet of news, I'll gladly scan and email a copy to you.  Just another 
fascinating aspect of our hobby!  Thanks again, Glenn!

Subject: [HCDX]: Question concerning MRC-1044

Dr. Hansjoerg Biener - Wittelsbacherstr. 21 - DE-92224 Amberg

Hello,
I have a question concerning the use of medium wave by maroccan
broadcaster Medi 1.
Medi 1 started via Sebaa Ayoun 612 kHz (300 kW) and was said to have
changed to 1044 kHz in the Mid-90s. Unfortunately, I did not find any
mention of the frequency in recent visits with <www.medi1.com>.
Herman Boel's LW/MW-list (3 Jan 2000) does list Medi 1 on 1044 kHz, but
mentions "not // 171 kHz". So: If it is used part time, does anyone have
broadcast times. If it is used for a separate programme, does anyone
know more about it.
And finally: Are the transmitters für 171 and 9575 kHz co-sited at
Nador?
Thanks a lot for any comments.
73, HjB

Dear friends
Really nice to hear Hans Johnson of Cumbre on the BBC's Waveguide this
morning.  I was expect the presenter to suggest that the BeeB itself could
benefit from a few spare valves.  Any chance of you guys saving up and
sending Cairo Radio equipment to check purity of modulation?  :-))

Bye the way, I been hearing English announcements and gentle pops on 9675
until about 0630 recently.  Presumably PNG..

The only Niue-QSL I have is from their PtP-Station, which was heard many 
years ago on 9950U (Raoul/Campbell wx net) here in Europe.

I was on Fuerteventura Canary Islands in April.  It is very close to
Morocco.  On 1044 kHz I heard ordinary RTM-programming.

** CANADA. CRTC ISSUES THREE NEW TORONTO RADIO LICENCES

OTTAWA-HULL - The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) has issued three new radio licences for the Toronto
market. The new licences were issued to B. Denham Jolly (Milestone
Radio Inc.), Gary Farmer (Aboriginal Voices Radio), and CHWO Ontario
Inc. Mr. Jolly proposed a new urban music FM radio station, Mr.
Farmer proposed a native radio station, and CHWO proposed a radio
station aimed at listeners over 50 years of age.

``We found these three applications to be the strongest in terms of
what would best serve the needs of Toronto and meet the objectives of
the Broadcasting Act,`` said Andrée Wylie, CRTC Vice-Chair,
Broadcasting. ``These three new stations will enrich and add diversity
to the Toronto radio market. They will also bring additional points
of view and variety to Toronto area listeners.``

In making its decision, the Commission also took into account the
best possible use of the frequencies applied for, the quality of the
applications, and alternative technical options available to the
other applicants.

Here is a summary of the three new radio station formats:

New Urban Music FM will offer an ``Urban Music`` format, on FM
frequency 93.5 targeted to an audience aged 25 to 44. According to
Milestone, the format will be a modern day reflection of the rich
musical traditions of Black musicians and Black-influenced music over
the past century. This will include rhythm and blues (R&B), hip-hop,
plus reggae and calypso. The station will also offer locally relevant
spoken-word programming and local talent.

Aboriginal Voices Radio will air on the FM frequency 106.5. It will
offer a very diversified programming schedule. Programming will
include a variety of music, open line programs, round table
discussions, spirituality and teachings, language and cultural
lessons, as well as news from an aboriginal perspective. Indigenous
languages will be woven into the programming according to the
community's need and available resources. The station will promote
the retention and revitalization of native languages.

New Adult Standards Radio will offer a radio format geared towards
listeners 50 and above. The music will be a mix of easy listening,
'50s pop, big band, swing and nostalgia. In addition to the regular
news, weather, sports, traffic and business reports, the program
hosts will provide anecdotes, humorous stories, personal insights and
thoughts for the day. The Commission notes that this application will
use a frequency, AM 740, that reaches a very wide area to serve a
large group of listeners who are currently not directly served by
commercial broadcasters using popular music-based formats.

These three new Toronto radio licences were awarded after a hearing
process that began in January 1999. In coming to its decision, the
Commission noted the concerns of the May 7th, 1998 Order-in-Council
and the rapidly changing demographic characteristics of the
metropolitan Toronto population. The Commission also notes that based
on discussions with various applicants at the Toronto hearing, there
appear to be other radio frequencies available for use in the Toronto
market.

have been... (gh)

June 16, 2000 D-Day for radio applicants | CRTC announcing who gets
what vacant frequencies
By Betsy Powell Toronto Star Entertainment Reporter

Toronto-area radio listeners will soon have more options. The federal
broadcast regulator announces today the fate of three vacant
frequencies, 740 AM, 93.5 FM and 106.3 FM, a new, low-powered signal.
Fourteen contenders made their pitches during public hearings here
last winter before five panelists of the Canadian Radio-television
and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). Triggering the process was
the CRTC's 1998 decision to award the prime 99.1 FM spot to CBC,
which freed up its former flagship, 740 AM, and Peterborough-based
93.5 FM. Two black applicants are proposing black/urban/dance-format
stations. Considered frontrunners, they are Share FM, whose major
owner is Arnold Auguste, and Denham Jolly's Milestone Communications
Inc. Others vying include YTV Radio, which hopes to be the country's
first station to exclusively target the 6-11 age demographic; an
outfit called PrimeTime Radio, which would cater to the over-50 set;
and Rainbow Radio, which would serve the gay community. Five
applicants call themselves ethnic radio stations; Aboriginal Voices
wants to broadcast to the native community. The new stations should
be on the air within six months. "That's up to them, basically," CRTC
spokesperson Denis Carmel said. "If they already have facilities,
then it's a piece of cake." When considering applications, the
commission looks for "variety, new choices for audiences, the quality
of the application and sustainability," Carmel said. "We want to
ensure whoever gets the licence survives." In 1990, the decision to
license a country music station over a black music/dance station came
under attack, with critics accusing the CRTC of ignoring the multi-
cultural needs of the city. Those same criticisms surfaced again in
1998, after CBC Radio One landed the licence at 99.1 FM. Milestone
appealed to cabinet, which refused to overturn the decision. However,
in response to concerns, the government issued a directive ordering
the commission to ensure 93.5 FM and 740 AM serve Canada's
ethnocultural audiences. (©1996-2000 Toronto Star Newspapers Limited

Voz de la Resistencia -- Comando de Occidente, heard here only on
Sundays.

On 6261v, Voz de la Resistencia - Bloque Oriental: no signals from
them lately from the beginning of June at either time 1130 or 2130
(Yimber Gaviria, Colombia, translated by gh for DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CONGO DR/KATANGA. 7205 9 June 1830- Unid in French talking about
Congo and playing afropops, best on LSB, maybe Lubumbashi active once
again? (Jarmo Patala, Hyvinkaa, Finland, hard-core-dx)

I heard Lubumbashi too! Tuned in at 2000 and I was surprised by the
signal. SINPO 24343. I think this is much stronger than the listed 10
kW. Heard lots of Afropop and messages in French for families and
others. Lubumbashi often mentioned. At 2027, the Portuguese programme
from the BBC via Meyerton was spoiling the game, but Lubumbashi could
still be heard faintly underneath. BTW the BBC is targeting this
programme at Angola. That must be a mess in the target area. After
2100, the frequency is clear again but the VOA newsreader on 7210 kHz
is causing too much side splash. From 2115 again better signal.
Rechecked at 2130 after VOA sign off but Lubumbashi was gone. On 7210
I heard however another French speaking African station. This could
be Benin or Senegal. At 2154 Yunnan, China, came on the air but the
African station was soon keeping the stronger signal. Put the
minidisk on and went asleep. [Later:]

It's Lubumbashi for sure. Although I didn't hear an ID, they were
talking about 'La Comité Central de Lubumbashi'; 'L'université de
Lubumbashi'; 'Les étudiants Kantangais' etc. This was followed by
readings from letters received from citizens with messages for other
family members. When listening again to my recording I must say that
an overall merit of 3 was a little bit to high. It's rather 2. It is
however doubtful if they are still using that ancient 10 kW
transmitter. They may have installed a new one to 'serve' the
occupied Congolese territories. Today 13/6 the reception is much
weaker. (Guido Schotmans, Belgium, hard-core-dx via DXLD)

** ECUADOR. [cf DXLD 00-74] Olle Alm mentions the cruddy audio on
HCJB 15115 in the (Western Hemisphere) evenings... oddly enough, I
don't think it sounds like this during the morning transmission--
different transmitter?  I've checked it around 1300 UTC and it sounds
clean. But the evening broadcast really stinks up the joint. (Randy
Stewart, MO, June 13, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ECUADOR. Greetings to all members on the list. Thanks for the
various comments about the hum we had been experiencing on our 15115
frequency from 0000-0700. As of 14 June at 0000, the frequency should
once again be clean. The hum is from a recurring problem on one of
our back-up txs. Due to a problem on one of the main txs, we were
unfortunately forced to use T2 for a short while. We are aware of the
problem on T2, and try to avoid using it as much as possible while
our engineering team continues to study the problem. Thank you to all
those who listen. Obviously we like the good news reports better, but
we need to know when there are problems, and you are the best ones to
let us know. Thanks for taking the time to listen and report. (Allen
Graham, HCJB World Radio, Quito, Ecuador, hard-core-dx)

Wonderful- HCJB has also been putting out a mixing product on 15090
kHz for quite some time. It seems to be audio from both 15140 and
15115 kHz. Any chance of cleaning that up as well? (Hans Johnson, WY)

Hello Hans and hello list. Thanks for the follow-up, Hans. I have
passed this along to our Engineering Director and to the Director of
the International Transmitter Site. As soon as I hear back from them,
I will inform the list. Thanks for letting us know. This is the kind
of help and information we need. Blessings on you this evening from
Quito. (Allen Graham, HCJB, hard-core-dx via DXLD)

** ECUADOR. HCJB's single-sideband transmitter, checked at 1330 UTC
on June 12, measured at 21455.2 kHz. I measured it for signal level
of the English program; at 21455.0 the carrier is a bit awkward in
sound level, but by tuning up by two-tenths of a kHz the audio level
was right-on, so the transmitter must be off-frequency. (Joe Hanlon
in Philadelphia, USA June 12, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ETHIOPIA [non]. Voice of the Democratic Path of Ethiopian Unity
(Amharic: Finote Demokrasi Ye-Ethiopia Andinet Dimts) was first
observed by BBC Monitoring in December 1999. It reportedly uses a
hired Deutsche Telekom transmitter in Germany. The radio states that
it was established to safeguard the national integrity of Ethiopia,
bring about unity based on equality of the Ethiopian peoples,
preserve the sovereignty of the Ethiopian peoples, bring about a
democratic system in Ethiopia, ensure the preservation of the human
rights of Ethiopians, ensure the supremacy of the law, bring about
justice and ensure equality of gender, religion and nationalities,
and contribute to the struggle aimed at bringing about social
justice.
    Several similar Ethiopian opposition radio stations, which have
also broadcast only on Sundays and Wednesdays, have been heard over
the past few years: Voice of Ethiopian Patriotism (heard in 1992);
Free Radio Voice of Ethiopian Unity (heard in 1993-94); Radio Voice
of United and Free Ethiopia/ Voice of One Free Ethiopia (heard in
1997-99). Language: Amharic. Address: Finote Democracy, P O Box

** FINLAND. Greetings from Scandinavian Weekend Radio!

We have been very busy with our project, but finally all things start
to look really good. Studio is waiting for equipments, our license is
granted, transmitters and aerial are almost finished.

Our transmitting tower will be lifted up in next weekend and
transmitter is going to be measured by Telecommunications
Administration Centre in 19th June (next Monday, so please hope for
the best and keep your fingers crossed ;-)

Tomorrow [June 15] there is an interview of us in Radio Netherlands
Media Network show. Please tune in! More information can be found on:
http://www.rnw.nl/realradio/html/radioshow.html

Unfortunately we cannot make any test transmissions before 1st of
July, according to our broadcasting licence. There was an misleading
information in our website. My fault. Please accept my apologies.

There have been some minor addons in our website, so if you haven't
visited it lately, it might be worth to visit again. Please vote your

I can`t help but notice that SWR continues to neglect to mention
their power of 250 watts, which will surely make this a DX catch, if
anything, rather than armchair listening. And isn`t there already far
too much rock music on the radio? And what`s that British flag icon
doing on the homepage standing for English language version? Surely
the primary English-speaking nation is India (gh, DXLD)

** INDIA. Have you noticed that All India Radio is no longer using
the long-standing frequency of 11620 kHz for English at 2045-2230
UTC? This frequency often provided the best opportunity to hear a
really good signal from AIR in our late afternoons here on the East
Coast of the USA (the 1745-1945 transmission continues to use 11620
but reception isn't good for this time of year, tho it does improve
during the fall and winter months). I have sent an e-mail to Alok das
Gupta, seeking a reason as to why 11620 was dropped for the A00
schedule.
    The frequencies in use for the 2045 broadcast are: 7410, 9650,
and 9950 kHz, for Europe (Joe Hanlon in Philadelphia, June 15, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 10330, All India Radio at 13:00. This domestic, off band
broadcast from India has been consistently audible here, in North
America, recently. The transmission consists of Subcontinental music
in a language I can't ID. The signal is distant with flutter. There
is a continuous tone being modulated on LSB. (David Hodgson, TN, Jun

** KOREAS. Loudspeaker slander over demilitarized zone stopped |
Text of report in English by South Korean news agency Yonhap

Seoul, 16th June: The militaries of South and North Korea have
stopped 20 years of slandering each other's political system and top
leaders via loudspeakers at the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). Under the
instruction of their leader Kim Jong-il [Chong-il], North Korean
troops along the 155-mile military demarcation line from east to west
turned off 108 loudspeakers from 1800 [0900 gmt] Thursday [15th June]
that had blared anti-South Korea propaganda, to respect the spirit of
the 15th June South-North Joint Declaration signed on Thursday. The
South Korean military in areas near the DMZ also suspended all
slander against Pyongyang and Kim Jong-il under orders from Defence
Minister Cho Sung-tae on Friday. The two Koreas had earlier stopped
propaganda attacks against each other after the announcement of a
South-North Joint Communiqué in 1972, but the North resumed it a year
after and the South from 1980. Earlier in the day, Cho instructed
frontline military units to refrain from slandering North Korea to
establish a mood of inter-Korean reconciliation and cooperation after
the historic summit. The Defence Ministry will also drastically scale
down events commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Korean War,
slated to continue from this year to 2003, in order not to provoke
the North. Cho reported his plans to a cabinet meeting at Chongwadae
[presidential office], which was presided over by President Kim Dae-

** KOREAS. Clandestine radios still on the air, but less rhetoric

Observations by BBC Monitoring since the recent inter-Korean summit
in Pyongyang confirm that the three Korean clandestine radio stations
are still on the air, although they appear to have toned down their
rhetoric in recent days. Voice of National Salvation favours the
reunification of Korea from the North Korean point of view. It began
broadcasting in March 1970. Echo of Hope claims to be operated by
Koreans living overseas. It has broadcast to North Korea from
transmitters in South Korea since 1973. Voice of the People is also
believed to broadcast from transmitters in South Korea although it
claims in its announcements to broadcast from Pyongyang. It began
broadcasting in June 1986. Source: BBC Monitoring research 16 Jun 00

** KOREA NORTH. Media drop anti-South propaganda on leader's order |
Text of report in English by South Korean news agency Yonhap

Seoul, 16th June: All broadcasting stations in North Korea are no
longer airing anti-South Korea statements under orders from their
leader Kim Jong-il [Kim Chong-il], who told them on Thursday [15th
June] not to broadcast anything slandering the South. The
broadcasters skipped their regular segment on news on South Korea
following local news and replaced it with international news,
according to monitors here. Radio stations made a repeat broadcast of
the luncheon given for President Kim Dae-jung [Kim Tae-chung] and his
departure from North Korea at their regular 0600, 0700 and 0800
newscasts on Friday. They carried, however, the North Korean
government's memorandum noting the "illegality" of the establishment
of the UN Command and demand for the withdrawal of US forces from
South Korea. An official who accompanied President Kim on his
Pyongyang visit said Kim Jong-il revealed at the luncheon that he
told a meeting of the National Defence Committee to stop any
broadcasts slandering South Korea everywhere, including along the
Demilitarized Zone. Source: Yonhap news agency, Seoul, in English

** KOREAS. BBC is reporting that the Koreas are ending their
propaganda war- "South Korea is suspending all anti-North Korean
propaganda, . . . . And South Korean monitors said North Korean radio
stations had dropped reports on South Korean affairs which contained
fierce denunciations of the Seoul government." You can read the
entire item at- 
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/world/asia-pacific/newsid_793000/793554.stm
The Koreas have a number of
clandestine shortwave stations aimed at one another. The BBC report
seems to indicate that as least South Korea is shutting down its
stations. We'd welcome monitoring reports of any of these stations,
so we can determine if they are indeed off. If they are on, we'd
particularly be interested in any reports of what the stations are
saying from our Korean-speaking members. The Asian Broadcating
Institute has their latest schedules which you can find at:

** KOREAS. I was checking on Korean stations last night (from 1100
1245 on Jun 16). I still hear all the 3 clandestine stations plus the
jammers. I also hear KBS domestic service on 3930 being jammed. The
lead item on Radio Pyongyang's 1100 UTC Mandarin broadcast was on Kim
DJ wrapping up his visit and given a hearty farewell in Pyongyang.
Kim DJ is now referred to as President Kim Dae Jung instead of some
"Flunkeyist clique", but I don't suppose the North Koreans will get
around to calling DJ "President of the south" or something like that.
(Richard Lam, Singapore, Cumbre DX via DXLD)

** KOREA NORTH. 11536: Thanks to Glenn Hauser, I was able to tune
into the North Korean central people's news agency (or whatever
they're officially called) with 100% recovery using my MFJ-462B code
reader set at RTTY 170 Hz shift, 50 Baud. Parallel 13580 is equally
strong, at 1230 to North America. Although the African stream sounded
very strong as well, I was unable to decode it on 8020 and 11476.
Usual propaganda in English like "The U.S. warmongers are describing
the Korean war as,...".  In view of the present interesting
developments between North and South Korea, this service may be very
interesting to monitor. I've hooked up an old Epson printer, so that
I'm now able to wake up to the latest developments from North Korea,
"hot off the press". If anyone is interested in a sample sheet of
news, I'll gladly scan and email a copy to you. Just another
fascinating aspect of our hobby! Thanks again, Glenn! (Walter R.

** MALAYSIA SARAWAK. Below an updated best-guess at the Sarawak
schedule. It's very difficult to come up with a consistent picture
because of variations (school term/holidays, weekdays/Sun, public
holidays), occasional transmitter outages and the complex pattern of
local opt-outs and obscure languages, so certain details below may
well be wrong and/or incomplete.

The period around 31 May - 2 June 2000 saw many temporary changes to
the schedule with extended hours because of the Hari Gawai Dayak
harvest festival celebrations, which are a major annual knees-up in
Sarawak, and maybe elsewhere in Borneo. This may account for some of
the apparent discrepancies between my report and what Bob Padula
observed listening from Sabah around that time.

IFEX - News from the international freedom of expression community
PRESS RELEASE/UPDATE - FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF YUGOSLAVIA (SERBIA)
12 June 2000 SOURCE: Association of Independent Electronic Media
(ANEM) **Updates IFEX alerts of 22, 18 and 17 May 2000**
(ANEM/IFEX) - The following is an ANEM press release:

Radio B2-92 news rebroadcast in Ukraine

BELGRADE, June 12, 2000 -- Radio Inicijativa in Lavrov is to begin
rebroadcasting new programs from Radio B2-92, ANEM's flagship
station. The Belgrade station was taken off the air by the Serbian
government a month ago. This is the fourth time the station has been
banned.

Radio B2-92 news in English will be heard on Radio Inicijativa, 102.5
MHz FM, on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays between 18:50 and 19:00
(satellite broadcast) and in Ukrainian (translation of the day's top
stories) between 21:00 and 21:10.

Translations of Radio B2-92 news will be presented by Boris Varga on
his current affairs program Balkan Express.

This is the first collaboration between Ukrainian and Yugoslav
independent media and follows the successful launch of Radio B2-92
news on Radio Tilos in Budapest in May.

In this way, Radio B2-92 is continuing to build a network of radio
stations which will improve the flow of information throughout the
region. The ultimate aim is to establish a network which will erase
borders and make repression of information in any part of Central and
South-East Europe meaningless.

Thanks to such regional collaboration, B2-92 will soon be heard in
Belgrade again, as well as in parts of Yugoslavia where it has not
previously been on the air.

** SPAIN. Re : Spanish Inquisition lives. Hello Larry, Hello Glen,
Interesting 'outcry' about Spanish QSL policy! No wonder, that they
rejected your report if you write your reports like your 'outcry' in
DXLD. Did you note, that you were so angry, that you did not even
give the name of the station that did this bad thing to you? 'Spain'
has a lot of stations! But if you were talking about REE, they did
that already when I first wrote to them in 1987 .. So please be more
careful next time when writing angry articles and always remember to
use the SINPO-code in your reports! yours (Martin Schoech, Germany,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Possibly REE was mentioned in the original and I lost it in copying;
but from our point of view, especially obviously dealing with SW,
there could be no doubt REE was the station! (gh) LATER:

Hi Martin, (and Glenn) There's 3 things you should know about the
SPAIN item. 1. It contained the ;-) item to denote HUMOR. 2. IT WAS
NOT WRITTEN FOR THE HCDX AUDIENCE, but for a club audience that would
know I meant REE when I said Spain. They share my sense of humor. It
was Glenn's choice to extract it from my club and use it. 3. People
who REQUIRE sinpo are boring bureaucrats. People who support such
restrictive policies in this hobby are referred to as "DX-Nazis" by
my friends. It is BAD public relations for Spain. I did provide REE
Spain with some helpful comments regarding too much crowd noise in 2
segments of the program. That's worth far more than a coded signal
report that is based more on individual interpretation than
scientific method. Add another "n" to Glenn's name next time. He'll
appreciate it. :-) :-) :-) Heil Sinpo! (Larry Russell, MI, June 17,

** SPAIN. Subject: [SWL] Spanish lessons via REE. Hello all....
Sometime back I sent REE (Radio Exterior de España) an e-mail
requesting information on their language study program. They sent a
reply and sent me a e-mail Program Sched and also said I could send
for their language study books that go with the program. So, via e-
mail I requested these materials, kinda expecting some cheesy little
pamphlets. Well, today the postman brought a registered package I had
to sign for. Inside it were three very nice softcover language study
books, each divided into two sections containing the dialogs of the
programs and supplementary sections containing the language rules,
glossaries, workbook sections etc. Looks like quite a complete
package for language study. I can read and write very basic Spanish
letters (which do seem to get QSL results) and basic conversations,
but I wanted to do more. Now all I need to do is take the time out
from overhauling BA's etc to really knuckle down and learn something
useful! Also in the package were several REE stickers, lapel pin and
program sched. 73 de Phil KO6BB [Atchley] Old DXers never die....

** VIETNAM. New strong and stable transmitter signals on new
frequencies for Hanoi home service noted by Roland Schulze in the
Philippines first on May 18th.

The introduction of new units seems still in progress. Strong 6020
and 7210 signals reported first on Dec 5th, 1999, by Alan Davies.
Similar strong and stable transmitters heard on the VOV Hanoi
external services 7145 and 9730 from Sept 2nd, 1999, by yours truly
[meaning Wolfgang Büschel?]. So, the Vietnam radio put at least six
new SW transmitters on air.

On 5925 noted both units` characteristics, an old unstable
transmitter on odd freqquency, and at other times also the stronger
newer unit on even .00 freq.

5970 and 7115, in parallel to 5925, 6020, 7210, at 1059-1145 and
2300-2330 in Vietnamese. 1059-1145 on 5925 S=9 +18dB. 5970 S=9 +20dB.
6020 S=9 +20dB. 7115 S=9 +10dB co-channel QRM [maybe Thailand, wb].
7210 S=9 +20dB signals noted in the Philippines, 1400 km away from
Vietnamese coast.

Before 1059 and after 1145, also before 2300, and after 2330: 5925
and 6020 mostly carry the same [2nd home service] program, but
sometime also heard with own separate program, the latter but not on
the morning service. 5970, 7115, 7210 mostly carry the same [1st home
service] program.

7210 carries also its own program at 1203-1230, supposedly
Cambodian[?], definite NOT Vietnamese, no parallel QRG found ! [ex
7285 external service ??] At 2300-2330 all five transmitters in
parallel, like at 1059-1145.

>From 1300 onwards v7156 heard with 33433, sure it was RTV Bac Thai
with clear ID active here. But much stronger at my QTH at 2320. NOT
in parallel to 5925. External service of VOV still on 7285, observed
at 1400 Laotian, 1430 in Cantonese as listed. Also other language
blocks of the external service still on 9840 & 12020 (Roland Schulze,

** ZIMBABWE [non]. New shortwave radio aims to promote peace,
democracy | Text of "Media Network" report by Radio Netherlands on
15th June

Adverts in a couple of Zimbabwe newspapers plus a report in the
Zimbabwean 'Standard' newspaper back on Sunday [11th June] all allude
to a new shortwave station which has been testing in the evenings
over the last few days in Africa. Most of the announcements for the
Voice of the People have been in regional languages of Shona and
Ndebele, but monitors in northern Zimbabwe earlier this week noted
short announcements in English:

[Recording of announcement] This is Radio VOP - the Voice of the
People. Each night there will be two broadcasts, one at 7 p.m. [local
time, 1700 gmt] and one at 9.15 p.m. [1915 gmt]. At 7 O' Clock we
will be broadcasting in Shona and a 9:15 in Ndebele. This station is
for every Zimbabwean, it belongs to no political party, it does not
have to answer to any advertisers. It is your station, your views,
your life and we hope that you will be entertained and informed by
our programming. Our aim is to promote peace in these troubled
political times and we hope that hearing many different views and
many different opinions, Zimbabweans together can hope build a
democratic society. In the future we will be talking about health,
the economy, human rights, HIV, women's rights and all the topics
that are so important to us today. With elections just around the
corner we will be focusing on the various parties contesting the
elections for the first couple of weeks. We will be explaining how to
vote and what your vote could mean to the future.

[Presenter] The announcement goes on to explain that the reason for
using shortwave is to reach rural communities where those behind the
venture believe the government-controlled Zimbabwean Broadcasting
Corporation isn't giving airtime to opposing views. Transmissions are
being monitored in Harare on 7215 kHz, between 1700 and 1730 UTC
[gmt] and again 1915 to 1945 [gmt]. The times that you heard in that
final announcement were in local time. The station doesn't announce
any address. Source: Radio Netherlands external service, Hilversum,

Nothing in this about transmitter site! Could even be RN`s own
Madagascar, available for hire (gh, DXLD) ###
