[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 4



** ANGUILLA [and non]. Defunct Gene Scott still missing, no signals from
Caribbean Beacon at 0645 Dec 4 on 6090, nor on 5030, 6150, 9725, from Costa
Rica but 7375 was on the air plus of course WWCR 5935. At 1445, 11870 CR was
also audible. At 1514 Anguilla 11775 still absent (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. I thought RA only broke away some frequencies for stupid
ballgames at weekends, but UT Monday Dec 4 at 0637, 15240 was in cricket, not
// 15160 and 15515 with regular programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. Huge crackling noise covering roughly 11680 to 11860, Dec 4 at 1446
was centred around 11760; so distorted I could not be sure at first it
correlated with RHC modulation on // 15370; then 11760 cut back on, momentarily
in whack, then back out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. Checked again Dec 4 for reported R. Martí on 17660, this time
during the hour it allegedly occurred, at 1618, but heard only WYFR in
Portuguese, which is via Ascension. Could someone have mistaken that for R.
Martí in Spanish?? Either that or RM made a one-off test of this frequency;
PWBR ``2006`` listed 17670 as a winter channel for them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** GABON. ANU Le Buzz, 19160, Dec 4 at 1519 was audible but weak, fluxuating S3
to S8 peaks; at 1523 ANU on 17630 was atop a lite buzz or hum, but nothing like
the roar on 19160; Afropop music jammer on 17660 had no such problems (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. AIR IS with flutter, Dec 4 at 1513 on 15175, 1515 opening in
language; that would be the Gujrati service via Bangalore. Once the droning IS
stopped, it uncovered a low het on 15175, but I cannot find anything else
listed at this hour; perhaps a spur from Cuban jammer, or something (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN [non]. There she goes again. That music director at her computer in the
recesses of the R. Farda HQ must have a thing for music in Spanish. A song
outroed as ``La Camisa Negra`` ended at 1510 Dec 4 on 15410 via Woofferton, not
to be confused with co-channel CVC Miami via Chile which also might play
something like that, but at the moment was way under Farda (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [and non]. NSB, Nagoya, 6115, again causing problems for CRI English
via Canada at 0642 Dec 4 (that`s 1542 JST, and 49m already propagating in
winter an hour or so before sunset). There was also a low het, but not between
these two; probably Perú which is always slightly off 6115 when on (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT [and non]. Quite melodic muezzin with high-register voice, Dec 4 at
1505 on 15505, presumably Kuwait. I guess he had to do it since it was around
sunset; quite different from the Sa`udi Qur`an going simultaneously on 15425,
much clearer than // 15435 which was weaker and buzzier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. After 0500 UT Monday Dec 4, I checked WRMI webcast for Global Crisis
Watch as scheduled and ``currently playing`` per their homepage, but instead
heard something in Spanish about Xmas in Venezuela. I asked Jeff White about
that (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn: The new program grid on the website is completely up to date (at the
moment). I replaced Global Crisis Watch with El Sonido de Miami this week
because there is no new GCW, and we have run the last one a few times now (Jeff
White, WRMI, Dec 4, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
