[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs November 20 (more)
** ALGERIA [non]. Ran across Qur`an on 9825, Nov 20 at 1945, then M&W talking
in Arabic. This would be RTA via VTC Woofferton, in new B-06 schedule at 19-20,
uncovered by Tony Rogers (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA [and non]. Yet another problem for CBCNQ, 9625: already weak signal,
Nov 20 at 2029 was bothered by a much stronger carrier cutting on 9621.0 for
one second every three seconds. The same was also going on half an hour
earlier. One could not tune to the hi side of 9625 either to escape it, with
stronger REE Spain there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC, 9505 in English, Nov 20 at 2032; only fair from one of their
low-powered transmitters, and QRM from 2-way zero-beat on frequency, I think in
Spanish, which was also audible a few minutes before 2030 when the RHC open
carrier was already on. // 11760 was stronger, but bad ACI de WHRA 11765. And
at 2035 check 11760 was running about one word behind 9505 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GABON. ANO The Buzz, 9580, Nov 20 at 1943 with some modulation mixed in; at
2025 also on 19160, and a different pitch of buzz was in and out on 17630,
perhaps unrelated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** POLAND [non]. R. Polonia, via Guiana French, Nov 20 at 2030 with IS, 2031
opening German, only fair with fades, but in the clear, SINPO 25433. Similar
signal at 2215 check in Polish, also back to Europe, on 9660, free for the
first time of BBCWS via WHRI collision, which moved to 9480. The only
difference is that German is on 35 degree azimuth, and Polish on 40 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WBCQ, 7415 was quite listenable as early as 1935 Nov 20,
unthinkable in summer; so would have been on 9329+CLSB with Hembree if it were
not for strong het presumably from Syria, with no modulation audible from them
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. KAIJ, Frisco TX, observations Nov 20: around 1750, 9480 was weak on
the caradio, but I was hearing tones about every two seconds. Perhaps a
Russian/CIS transmitter was tuning up, as is their wont, but nothing known to
be starting at 1800 on 9475, 9480 or 9485.
At 2058 I went back to 9480 and heard a SAH of about 5 Hz, no doubt the
WHRI/BBC carrier on its new frequency ex-9660 overriding KAIJ, which may have
stopped modulating already. The SAH and KAIJ went off at 2101, a sesquiminute
after BBC started modulating, so I quickly retuned to 5755 and found that to
avoid a new collision, indeed KAIJ was coming up this much earlier on its night
frequency, ID before 2101:30. At this location, KAIJ was inbooming on 5755 so
it`s an improvement over 9480, anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Looking around for what became of WINB, still absent from 13570, Nov
20 at 1940 I tried their only other known frequency, 9265, and found open
carrier. But no, that must have been WMLK as scheduled during this time period,
and often with undetectable modulation. Recheck at 2011, still OC; recheck at
2033 finally a preacher audible.
Consulting FCC B-06, I see that WMLK is still registered for 9955 and 15265 as
it has been for several years without ever showing up on them, and does anyone
ever hear the overnight broadcast on 9265? ---
9265 1600 2100 WMLK 125 53 27,28,39 234567 291006 250307
9265 0400 0900 WMLK 125 53 27,28,39 1234567 291006 250307
9955 0400 0900 WMLK 125 53 27,28,39 1234567 291006 250307
15265 1700 2200 WMLK 250 57 27,28,39 1234567 291006 250307
``234567`` for 9265? I thought Saturday-the-Sabbath was the day they were
totally silent, not Sunday or Monday. Yes; this says Sunday-Friday:

** U S A [non]. Even Radio Nederland is relaying Harold Camping now; Nov 20 at
1935, there he was on 7395, boring us to tears with his layman`s interpretation
of scripture. This is listed as 250 kW at 320 degrees from Madagascar. Wouldn`t
it be more apropos to employ this transmitter for RN`s own broadcasts in prime
African and European time? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9505, Nov 20 at 1943, maybe in African language? But when I went
back at 1947 it was gone. Nothing I can find in the listings fits unless maybe
it was Sudan just before closing at an odd hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
