[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs November 11

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

** AUSTRIA. Nov 11 at 1503 checked 15150 in case Indonesia was there as well as
9525, but instead heard good signal from program in Turkish, with
Chinese-sounding music in background. This must be AWR in Turkish as scheduled
via Moosbrunn. Iran no longer using 15150 at this hour? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRIA [non]. Ö1 in English via Canada, 13675, Nov 11 at 1607 had annoying
co-channel in French. Duh! RFI Issoudun is scheduled with 2 x 500 kW
transmitters here to NW Africa. Another triumph of propagation over theory
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. Strong buzzy jamming pulses on 11845 against nothing, Nov 11 at 1515.
R. Martí hasn`t used this frequency since A-06 ended, but the DentroCuban
Jamming Command just wants to be sure to demonstrate its own incompetence for
all to hear (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GABON. Africa No. One harmonic, 19160 = 2 x 9580 again audible Nov 11 at
1452 with a bit of audio, fading S5 to S8; not audible at 1601 recheck.

African music jammer against nothing, 17660, good Nov 11 at 1455, equivalent
signal to ANO fundamental 17630 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GOA. AIR Sinhala service, 9820, Nov 11 at 1447 was going from talk into the
usual chanting at end of transmission, but today there was also squealing from
the defective transmitter, unlike my other logs of this the past several days.
No sign of China co-channel (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GREECE. Hellenes Around the World, weekly hour in English from VOG,
confirmed Sat Nov 11 at 1425 in progress on 9420, Katerina interviewing someone
on phone about Greek-American community, churches; G signal but QSB; recheck at
1450, another interview about chivalry, Mary, but now there is a bad echo,
long/short path. Altho Americans are often featured on this show, it is not
broadcast to NAm any more, as this is apparently the only airing in B-06. At
1545 checked the only //, 17525, and found a poor signal, made worse and
unusable by undermodulation; at least there was no chirping utility QRM this
time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA [and non]. Checking VOI 9525, Nov 11 at 1450, usual open carrier,
but no hum this time. At 1522 found CRI Kashi in English also on 9525 mostly
under the carrier, 1530 into mailbag. Seemed like there was a third station in
the mix, too. Unlike several previous dates, Suara Indonesia did not go into
gamelan orchestra loop with English IDs, but OC continued. 1557 recheck no
audio from either; was CRI already finished? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. Sat on 17810 Sat Nov 11 from 1458 waiting to see just
when TDF Montsinéry would turn on the transmitter; previously it had been well
before the scheduled hour. But this week nothing until abrupt *1459:30 with
service music in progress, initial preaching by someone other than Brother
Scare. Ran past 1600 but I don`t know for how long (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K. BBCWS in English on another unexpected new frequency, 11820, Nov 11 at
1514 giving phone number for listener participation in Sportsworld. This is
Skelton at 15-17 due east for Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [non]. VOA English, 11890 with item on deaf issues, Nov 11 at 1516,
not // special English on 9760. 11890 is Lampertheim eastward during this hour
only. Also in African English on 17715, Nov 11 at 1602 with news of southern
Sudan, Zimbabwe, 1605 ending headline news with VOA ID. This is Botswana,
northward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
