[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs Sept 13-16

[Glenn Hauser <wghauser@xxxxxxxxx>]

** FRANCE [non]. As TDF continues its DRM tests on 17870-17875-17880 via Guiana
French, M-F nominally from 1300, but sometimes not on until 1400, if at all, I
wonder whether the RFI English broadcast at 1400 is ever put on this
transmitter? Or the one at 1600? I have never seen this reported by the few who
do have DRM receivers. If they did that, it might prompt North Americans to
make a bit more effort to decode it. But that would of course entail RFI
actually admitting that more in NAm understand English than French. They have
at least availablized the 1400 broadcast via the WRN NAm service, which is
entirely in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GABON. Afropop music distraxion, 17660, good signal on peaks but somewhat
distorted with some deep fades, Sept 14 at 1358. During a brief pause I could
hear something else underneath. Could Sawt al-Amal be back? Nothing else listed
but NHK Yamata at 305 degrees. No sign of ANU 17630 or 19160 (Glenn Hauser, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** LAOS [non]. Confirmed another hour of Hmong on WHRI, 11785, Sat Sept 15 at
1400, presumably Hmong World Christian Radio, the ID I heard on Sundays, both
Sept 9 and 16 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LI STENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. XEYU, Radio UNAM: Besides the weak carrier I found at 1340 Sept 13,
also heard much better at 1341 Sept 14 on 9599.2, Spanish discussion of state,
federal and city politix. S9 +18 or SINPO 34443. Still needs more modulation
but readable. Then at 0552 Sept 15 on 9599.2, good modulation in classical
music, and signal stronger than JOZ3 on 9595 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST) 

** RUSSIA. SW Asian music, with some buzz on 15510, Sept 14 at 1334. Thought it
might be another motorboating transmitter, but with BFO on, the carrier was
stable, so the buzz was only on the modulation. This is listed as VOR, Samara
site in Pashto/Dari (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
