1100-1130 17630 ISS 500 kW 300 deg to North America
FRANCE Checked this EU election propaganda special of 30 minutes duration
outlet today May 21, all in French language.
9790 at 1103 UT started late, here in central EUR and Moscow at S=9+10dB
or -62dBm level, signal not as strong as expected before.
15300 here in nearby Germany, some less 600 kilometers on < 1st skip zone,
as usual fair S=8 or -84dBm. Despite S=7 backlobe in NY/NJ USA only.
But in Poland, Sweden, and Moscow Russia remote SDR posts
at S=9+25dB or -50dBm on more or less sidelobe signals.
17630 in Germany and Poland only S=7 or -86dBm.
S=9+20dB or -54dBm in Sweden and Moscow units, at sidelobe.
S=9+15dB or -58dBm surprisingly in NY/NJ-USA at the 300 degrees azimuth
signal.
S=7 or -90dBm on remote unit at Alberta- western CAN.
21690 in Germany and Poland only S=8 or -79dBm strength,
S=9+5dB or -70dBm in Moscow Russia,

FRANCE RFI/TDF registrations. Special transmissions on EU Parliament -
Election at May 25.
Today's HFCC update mostly consists of a 10-day special, starting today,
of Radio France Internationale. Why?
Cannes Festival: 14-25 May.
Euro parliament elections: 25 May.
Soccer/TourDeFrance: June/July.
So none of these. They used to transmit their Meteo at these hours.
Will they be on air at all? They registered a crazy amount of
11 transmitters for 4 frequencies, so it must be important or someone's
wishful thinking. Nothing found on rfi.fr, of course. Maybe someone can
check, I'll be at work.
These are the registrations:
1100-1130 UTC, 12 May - 22 May 2014, all ISS - Issoudun France site.
9790 28/29 (Eastern Europe), 500 kW/85 deg

On <http://hfcc.org/data/schedbyfmo.php?seas=A14&fmor=TDF>
it says "Elections Europeenne" for each of the registrations. I will try
and remember to check tomorrow morning when i'm in work via Twente SDR.
I found this page on the RFI website about the extra transmissions:
<http://www.rfi.fr/europe/20140509-elections-europeennes-campagnes-
audiovisuelles-officielles/>
"The official campaign in France for the European elections begins Monday,
May 12 and ends Thursday, May 22 All candidates have a strict equality of
speaking time and antenna according to the rules laid down by the Higher
Audiovisual Council (CSA). In this context, RFI broadcasts campaign spots
of the various candidates shortwave from 11am to 11:30 UT (in kHz), from
May 12 to 17 inclusive and 19 to 22 May inclusive.
You will find below the frequencies depending on your region.
Eastern Europe: 15300 - Southern Europe: 9790
North Africa: 15300 - Central Africa: 21690
West Africa: Dakar to: 15300
West Africa: towards Abidjan: 17630
Eastern Africa - Middle East - Middle East: 17630
Central America: 21690 - South America: 21690
North America: 17630 - South East Asia - North India: 21620"
Translated by Google but it gets the gist of it. Sounds like what we in
the UK would call party political broadcasts, I assume for French living
abroad and registered to vote in the elections in France by postal vote.
