WORLD OF RADIO 1426 SUMMARY:
*New Bolivian on 6075, heard in South and North America, morning from
1000 UT and evening until 0230, is Radio Causachun Coca, ``long live
coca``
*Radio Virgen de Remedios, Bolivia, on 4555 for a while, back to 4111
*Radio Nove de Julho, Brazil, back on SW, 9820; named for 1932 date of
revolt against dictator Getúlio Vargas, and had been forced off the
air by another dictator later; reported from S America but not yet N
America [watch out for Cuba 9820 from 2200 except weekends]
*Two Hondurans doing the same thing at 1123, preachers in English
being translated into Spanish, R. Luz y Vida, 3250, and Radio
Misiones Internacional on 3340
*Radio Verdad, Guatemala, 4052.5, heard with Swedish ID at 0548
*XEPPM, Radio Educación, Mexico City, 6185, normally off air in
daytime, came back on after 1400 Sept 10 while sponsoring the Bienal
about DRM and other radio matters; also heard on a Thursday until
1100 closing with Del Campo y de la Ciudad show, Sept 11 marking
assassination of Salvador Allende
*Radio Vision Cristiana, 530, South Caicos; and Caribbean Christian
Radio, 1020, Grand Turk, off the air for weeks from hurricane damage
and power outages
*UT Sept 13, as Hurricane Ike was about to hit Houston, KGOW, Bellaire
TX, 1560, relayed KPRC-TV channel 2 and ran day power of 50 kW all
night, instead of usual 100 watts; widely heard in eastern North
America and Europe
*Houston`s major news radio station, KTRH, 740, not so widely heard
tho 50 kW; may have stayed on tight direxional pattern
*Nothing heard then on FEMA frequency 5211; MARS nets heard on 4008,
4021, 5153.5
*KLVI, 560, Beaumont TX still off the air days after hurricane, but
sister FM stations carrying its news
*Highly recommended, Bill Moyers Journal on PBS Sept 12, about
reclaiming civil discourse, against rightwing hate talk radio, full
transcript and video:
http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/09122008/watch.html
*VOA anchor Neil Currie speaks out against turning off SW
transmitters, reducing language services
*WWRB worth listening to only when playing big band fill music, on
3185 one night in the 0000 UT hour, another in the 0100
*Last Saturday night on WWCR, 5070, UT Sunday Sept 14 at 0230,
previous week`s World of Radio 1424 played by mistake, so those
depending on this transmission missed #1425, which was really the
previous editon to the one you are hearing now; unless you retrieve
it, e.g. from http://www.worldofradio.com/audiomid.html
*Reminder that WBCQ is running World of Radio Fridays at 2301 on Area
51, 5100; also temporarily Mondays at 2201 on 7415 [in addition to
Wed 2100 on 15420, Thu 2330 on 7415]
*Via shortwave, satellite, AM, fm and internet, World of Radio 1425;
our address where your contributions are welcome: woradio at
yahoo.com or P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA
*CHU frequency change from 7335 to 7850 is not yet ready; will give 30
days notice in on-air announcements
*Revived CFRX, Toronto, frequency corrected closer to 6070, but
modulation dropped to almost inaudible. We researched other stations
using 6070, including Belarus, Liberia, Indonesia, North Korea,
Thailand, Russia, Philippines, Swaziland, China, Romania, and worst
of all Chile, all-night
*Arabic on 710 kHz around sunset is CJRN, Niagara Falls, at least
during Ramadan; previously they even interrupted a hockey game for

human experience, such as war and music, Sundays 8 pm on CBC Radio 1,
Saturdays noon on CBC Radio 2; local times + delayed zonal webcasts
*Shortwave transmitters at Flevo, Netherlands are being dismantled, so
RN abandoned plans to ever use them again; for spare parts in Germany

show, Muzprosvet; can be heard well even in NAm on 15420 via UK

and New Zealand the next three Saturdays, Sep 20, 27, Oct 3 at 1030-
1059 on 9770
*Switzerland in Sound interviews Bob Thomann on his 80th birthday Sept
24; available this weekend
*Radio Exterior de España mentions that it plans to continue on SW
plus additional platforms, but the DX program in Spanish will be
renamed [no longer Amigos de la Onda Corta]
*La Bañera de Ulises, excellent show of Mediterranean music and
culture, once on REE, then only on RNE Radio 3, was canceled at
Junend, but six years of shows archived, plus blog at
http://labaneradeulises.org/
*Radio Medi Un, Morocco, 9575, has wonderful music, Arab, French or
even English
*1Africa, Zambia, 13590, aimed at Nigeria, also puts good signal into
North America around 1900; stealth evangelism with constant musical
bed aimed at younger listeners, in stark contrast to neighbors on
dial, plodding Harold Camping on 13615 and equally soporofic preacher
on WINB 13570
*New Ethiopian clandestine I mentioned recently is Ginbot 7 Dimts
Radio, Tue/Thu/Sat 1700-1730 on 17655 and 21555 via Samara, Russia;
higher frequency inaudible in Europe
*Another new Oromo clandestine is on 15670, 1600-1700 Sun/Tue/Thu [V.
of Oromo Liberation Front]
*Israel redesigned REKA website, including on-demand to four remaining
English programs no longer on SW: Weekend Report, Sunday Edition,
Culture Report and Face to Face via http://www.iba.org.il/reka/
*More mixups on All India Radio: Guwahati 4940 and 7280 were off the
air a while; Gorakhpur on 3935 instead of 3945, so don`t take it for
New Zealand
*Democratic Voice of Burma reported testing relay via KHBN Palau, 13-
14 on 12095 Mon-Tue-Wed, but not confirmed
*RRI Indonesians making it on 60m, especially 4790 Fak Fak mostly with
Qur`an before and after 1300, unlike 4750 and others; is it more
Islamic?

being 3385, R. East New Britain, Rabaul
*Radio Australia, 9785 via Darwin heard with English lessons for
Indonesians at 2230 UT Saturday; quite different from Kang Guru Radio
English, also provided by Australia, on RRI 9680, Wed & Fri 0805
*KHNU, Hilo, Hawaii, 620, ex-KIPA back on air testing; full power is
10 kW plus two repeaters on west side of Big Island
*We can enjoy abstract kaleidoscopic art on TV screen thanks to not-
quite-locking-in DTV on a channel from Oklahoma City [32] with local
analog interference; see if you can get something similar
*Propagation outlook from SWPC, Boulder, Sept 16
