[HCDX] Friday DX

["Charles Bolland" <ka4prf@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Suriname, 4989.99, Radio Apintie, 0903-0930,   Noted a
male in comments (Dutch?) for a few 
moments, then music is presented.  This is one of those
signals where nothing seems as it
is, when the noise is so loud, the signal is almost
imagined.   Were it not for the display of a
signal, I would have passed by this station on an
ordinary receiver.  I can't say this is threshold,
because that would be an exaggeration.  However,
periodically the audio of the signal fades in
for a moment or two which allows for some listening.

Solomon Islands, 5019.94, SIBC, 0920-0930,   Noted a
male in Pidgin language comments.  
This is another of those weak signals where the noise
is covering most of the audio.  I'd
say this catch is poor then.  (Chuck Bolland, April 16,

Indonesia, 4749.93, RRI Makassar, 0935-0945,  At tune
in, noted a female in Indonesian 
language comments until 0938.  At that time, music is
presented.  Signal was threshold,
but this station usually fades in closer to the sunrise
at my location.  (Chuck Bolland,

Peru, 6019.29, Radio Victoria, 0955-1000,  Just caught
the tailend of the "weeping 
preacher" as I like to refer to him.  He was followed
with bridge music and then live 
comments from an announcer.  Signal was poor.  (Chuck
Bolland, April 16, 2010)
 
Bolivia, 6134.77, Radio Santa Cruz, 1005-1015,  Noted a
male and female in some
sort of instructional program.  It might be a language
lesson?  Signal was fair this
morning.  (Chuck Bolland, April 16, 2010)
 
Japan, 6140, Radio Japan, 1014-1030,  Noted a female in
Indoneisan language comments
for a minute, the JP pop music presented.   Signal was
good.  (Chuck Bolland, 
April 16, 2010)
 
 
Indonesia, 9680. RRI Jakarta, 1038-1050,  With a female
in Indonesian comments, she
presented local type melodies.  Signal was good at this
time.  (Chuck Bolland, 
April 16, 2010)
 
Indonesia, 9525.87, Voice of Indonesia, 1043-1050,
Signal is very threshold today.  There's
a display, but no audio can be heard.  Can it be that
they aren't broadcasting  anything 
during this halfhour?  Don't know, the schedule from
AOKI says they should be in English
between 1000 and 1100 UTC.  Maybe the English announcer
didn't show up?  Tried
hearing something using the HF1000 and had the same
results of nothing.   (Chuck
Bolland, April 16, 2010)
 
Philippines, 9615, Radio Veritas Asia, 1053-1105,  At
tune in, noted a male in Chinese
language comments.  At 1058, bells are rung while ID or
promos in Chinese.  Was expecting
an ID on the hour in English, but didn't happen.  I'm
thinking it'll be at 1157 instead of 1100.
The program continues after 1100 with a male and female
in more Chinese language comments
and features.  Signal was good.  (Chuck Bolland, April
