GLEANINGS ----------------------- AUSTRALIA - Radio Australia
returns to its regular program schedule starting February 1. (Every year, many
programs go on summer hiatus during the period of around December 25 to
January 31--Christmas to Australia Day.) (Figliozzi, USA)
AUSTRALIA - One Radio Australia
program that will not be returning is "Countrywide", which is no
longer being produced by the domestic network, Radio National, a source
for a considerable amount of RA programming. Replacing Countrywide will be
"Life Mtters", a daily program that examines and discusses
Australian social and family life issues. Listen for it at 0910 and 1135 daily
on 9580 and 9660 (Figliozzi, USA)
AUSTRALIA - Radio Australia will
run a special test on February 14 of its Shepparton transmitting facility. For
this one day only, RA will broadcast to South and Southeast Asia and West and
Central Europe from 0900 to 1358 UTC on 21710 kHz. RA requests reports to
GPO Box 428G Melbourne and via e-mail. (Figliozzi,
USA) ( now it is no easy to listen RA here
in Roma with the beautiful signal of the past years. Ed. )
CHINA PR. - Radio China
International has an english transmission from 17.00 UTC on 9710 kHz heard on
sunday 7 februari 1999 Parallel frequencies on this time : 7405 and 9745 kHz
barely audible. (Johan Damen, The Netherlands)
COSTA RICA- A local community in
a remote area of CR, which feels isolated, and is 20 km wide, wants to set up a
SW station, since the FM band is claimed by commercial broadcasters, following
the RFPI model, and RFPI has agreed to assist. No further details (James Latham,
RFPI Millennium Dreams Feb 2 via Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 975 / GH DX REPORT
99-07, Feb 3, 1999)
COSTA RICA- This week's
Millennium Dreams on RFPI had James and Debra Latham giving lots of info about
the station and its financial situation; originally broadcast Fri Jan 29,
and monitored here on a repeat UT Tue Feb 2 at 0430; excerpts follow: The
"Fun-Raiser" runs through Feb 7. 1-800-291-2823. Three of the original
transmitter tubes are offered as premiums for $250, along with
certificates of authenticity. In 1998, there were 14 students, interns and
volunteers, who collectively contributed a total of 37 months of work (not
including paying IPC students). Over the past 11 years, there have been several
hundred volunteers. RFPI's first year budget was only $16K, though
misreported in the media as $170K. The 1998 budget of Earth Communications to
run RFPI was $186,093.13, including $52K in donated goods and services, leaving
$134,093.13 cash. Of this, $17,267.52 was spent on technical upgrades. Among
donated expenses are the Oregon office, which is 100% volunteer; also some
equipment and travel. Full time salaries went to only five people, Willie
Barrantes, Joe Bernard, Debra Latham, James Latham, and through October, Robert
"Bobby" Kennedy who then went on an extended leave of absence.
In 1999 hopes to hire a new person for staff support and research assistant; was
about to be interviewed. And an intern is currently needed. The weekly hour in
French is done on a volunteer basis. Global Community Forum got three grants in
1998, one of which was from the Greensboro Justice Fund. The funder for FIRE
closed the Foundation for a Compassionate Society, and reduced program from 14
to 4 hours per week, and then to zero, resulting in a budget cut at RFPI.
Planned new programs in 1999 include: Deep Ecology for the XXI Century (a New
Dimensions production); Wisdom Radio Network programs; Voices of Vision.
The Commanity long distance phone program was dropped since that company
changed and it was no longer viable for RFPI benefit. Institute of Progressive
Communcations (intensive Spanish lessons and radio training) plans 4 sessions in
1999, in May, June, July and August; so far May has been confirmed. A minimum of
4 students is required for each session. Valuable contacts were made at the 1998
AMARC (community radio) meeting in Milan; RFPI hopes to exchange staff and
training with Channel Africa. Technical Upgrades in 1998: Frequency
synthesizers replace crystal-controlled; now RFPI can change frequency quickly,
once antennas are retuned, if necessary to avoid deliberate jamming, rather than
wait 3-4 weeks for new crystals to be ordered. Spare parts: key components now
on hand include a tube for the 10 kW transmitter in addition to for the 30 kW;
10 kW had to operate at reduced power while a full-power cooling blower
was replaced by a lower-powered blower. But now a full-power 3hp blower and
motor are on standby. Brown-outs and voltage fluxuations are a continuing
problem, typically 105-140+ volts, or 210-280+ when doubled. This happens when
the power plant starts up a second generator without turning off the first one!
Antennas: Four new ones built and installed in 1998. For 21460 - 5-element yagi
at 105 feet, and directional control For 15050 - high-gain yagi, on tallest
tower, now increased to 200 feet high with addition of three tower
sections For 6975 - 4-element cubical quad just below the yagi at about 198 feet
high. Very high gain. Boom is 55 feet long, 50 feet tall and wide, but not much
wind resistance. Backup bi-directional curtain array to improve coverage toward
the south, still under construction. A listener in Dublin reports RFPI's
signal comparable to 500-kW WEWN. Also have added 300 feet of high-power
transmission line coax. A high-speed computer was added, allowing sending and
receiving programs on internet, but subject to limitations of the only ISP
available in CR. FM transmitter on 101.3 has a stronger signal, heard across the
valley, and in fact 3 hours away by car. Soon to be installed on a
mountain increasing coverage further, something much anticipated by the Spanish
department. During Fun-Raising week, planned to include stories from the
archives on RFPI's peace-trip across the U.S.; interview with Paz the Cat, who
runs the station. Paz recently knocked RFPI off the air whilst chasing spiders,
jumping up and down on some equipment, disconnecting several mini-disc and
recording machines; and the day before had to clean her hair out of a VHS
recorder where she had been sleeping.... excerpts as monitored by Glenn Hauser,

Dionisios Angelogiannis of ERT says he has been overloaded with work and

Jordan was quite good atop minor RTTY but in Arabic instead of scheduled
English--evidently they thought the King's death would be a good excuse for
dropping English, let's hope temporarily-with continuous talk, no ID break at
1700, into Qur'an at 1705 and off at 1730* One can be quite sure of the identity
due to frequent mentions of "Urdan" (Arabic for Jordan) and
"Hashemiya" (Glenn Hauser, OK/ GH SHORTWAVE/DX REPORT 99-08, Feb
