[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs January 22-23
** CUBA. RHC was back on 15370 one day later, Jan 23 at 1459 // much weaker new
15190 and a reverb/echo between them indicating different feed routing and/or
transmitter sites (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. DX Mix News, Bulgaria issued an updated B-06 schedule for R. Cairo
including:
2300-0030 on 11950 ABZ 500 kW / 330 deg English NoAmEa
2300-0300 on 12050 ABS 250 kW / 325 deg Arabic GS NoAm
Of note is that the ENAm service in English at 2300-2430 is back on 11950,
where it may have a chance of getting thru, rather than colliding with WYFR on
11885 since the beginning of B-06 (and also B-05).
So is anyone further east or south hearing Cairo in English on 11950 at
2300-2430? We need to confirm this. Checked here at 2310 Jan 22, I could but
detect the weakest of carriers on 11950, and if it were still under WYFR on
11885, could not tell. 12050 in Arabic not propagating either. 25m is really
too high, or should I say, short in wavelength. Nor was Cairo propagating to
Germany on 25m, says Wolfgang Büschel (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GABON. Afropop music distraxion, Jan 23 at 1500 check was on 17650; no sign
of 2 x 9580 = 19160 Africa N. Un harmonic at this time, nor for several days
now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. DW`s A World of Music show was very enjoyable, Monday Jan 22
at 2130-2200 on 11690 via Rwanda ? tune high to avoid RTTY. This week was about
the tango; next week, Philip Glass. Also ondemand but for only one week? Via

** GUIANA FRENCH. Again Jan 23 at 1502 check, no sign of DRM test on
21615-21620-21625; however no analog signals were audible on 13m either. DRM
was quite strong at same time on 17870-17875-17880. According to the DRM
schedule at
http://www.baseportal.com/cgi-bin/baseportal.pl?htx=/drmdx/main&sort=kHz,UTC
this is the final day of these tests:
1300-2020 01/19-01/23 17875 295 Mexico 150 TDF test F various Montsinery French
Guiana

** INTERNATIONAL. VOA Talk to America on Jan 23, tune-in 1432 on 11655 via
Lampertheim, Germany, was a rerun from November 1, complete with promos for
upcoming elexion coverage. But it was a good one, about the New Seven Wonders
of the World, http://www.new7wonders.com whereupon one may vote (once; how do
they control that? It`s all in the FAQ --- you have to register, free, as a
member first, etc., etc.) from 21 finalists, all to be revealed on 7/7/07 in a
ceremony from Lisboa.
Here`s another story about it:
7 WONDERS OF THE WORLD UP FOR DEBATE
Eliane Engeler & Alexander G Higgins, Associated Press
Article Launched: 12/24/2006 12:00:53 AM PST
http://www.pasadenastarnews.com/europe/ci_4879532
The VOA show is available OD via
http://www.voanews.com/english/NewsAnalysis/TTA-New-Past-Shows.cfm
for Jan 23, and also still for Nov 1 --- I see that the archive now only goes
back thru October (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. XEYU, 9599.2, best heard yet, Jan 23 at 0620 with classical piano
music, good modulation and better signal than e.g. Gabon on 9580. Never heard
any announcements thru classical guitar piece at 0704; not so good during my
other usual morning check at 1505.
24 hours later, XEPPM, 6185, was not on the air at 1505 UT check Tuesday Jan
23. XEXQ, 6045, was audible. Traces of XEOI 6010 also (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WWCR-4, Jan 23 at 1510 was still on 5765 with Power Hower, instead of
7465, which is scheduled to start at 1400. Possibly to do with avoiding the
pesky mixing product with WNQM which lands on 8765 when 7465 is on (7465 +
1300). At 1620 recheck, was on 9985 as scheduled after 1600. So WWCR could be
avoiding use of 7465 for the time being, at least from #4, where it has been
scheduled at 14-16 and 00-02; the situation may or may not be different when
WWCR-1 is using 7465 at 21-23. 5765 still holding up here with very strong
signal at 1510 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WTJC notable by its absence from 9370, Jan 23 at 0625 and again at
1457 check; however, at the latter time, WBOH 5920v was audible as usual. 9370
is normally occupied 24 hours. Is there anything about the outage at their
website http://www.fbnradio.com/homepage.htm ? Of course not!
