[HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs December 15, 2015



** AUSTRIA. 5910.0, Dec 15 at 0646, TWR in Polish, S7 vs a bit of running H2O ute QRM; no HJDH QRM at the moment. Last time I heard this, TWR was unexpectedly in English (Glenn Hauser, oK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BIAFRA [non]. 11600, Dec 15 at 2042, no signal from R. Biafra, reported just to have resumed SW on a new frequency from 2000, site not published, presumably not Issoudun, whence they were banned in early November, ex 18-20 on 15560. I suspect it`s now BULGARIA, fond of -00 frequencies, and in fact registered, but not Brother Scare any more and not eastward (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1804, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 7425.0, Dec 15 at 0143, R. Martà is S9 and // 7365; also // 7305 open carrier with a bit of Martà audio bleeding thru. 7425 is the leapfrog mixing product produced by the two Greenville transmitters/antennas insufficiently isolated from each other; 7305 being a warmup for Vatican Radio relay to start at 0145, violating Separation of Church and State (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GUAM. 11590, Dec 15 at 1410, S Asian song at S9+10; 1414 announcement with lots of numbers, frequencies or contact addresses; 1415 ``TWR, AgaÃa, Guam`` and probably changing language at quarter-hour, TWR theme and some ``Namaskar``s. Previously unID but KTWR recently added a 1345-1430 broadcast here. Ivo Ivanov says it`s in Dogri/unknown/Hindi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OMAN. 15140, Dec 15 at 1445, RSO is missing, not even a JBA carrier, as it has been for several days now at various chex during the English hour and Arabic later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH AFRICA. 11750, Dec 15 at 2045, Christian hymn and unknown language talk, fair; AWR IS and off at 2100*. It`s Yoruba, 250 kW, 328 degrees via SOUTH AFRICA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7570, 7730, 5850, Dec 15 at 0644, NO signals from WRMI --- must be power outage or something at Okeechobee. Not a propagation blackout, as am still getting 7405 Martà from NC at S9+20; 5830 WTWW-1 is S7 and ``hollow``. Recheck 0707 now I do have WRMI VP on 9395 and JBA carrier + jamming on 9955.

15770, Tue Dec 15 at 2104, Brother Scare on WRMI, which supposedly switches to Radio France International English relay at 21-22 on Tuesdays. Meanwhile, 7570 is in Italian as scheduled, Studio DX (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 7410, Dec 15 at 0144, American English catches my ear also with bits of music at S8; 0156 mentions ``The Holy Father`` so can`t be anything but VR, direct to S Asia at 0140-0200 following Hindi, Tamil and Malayalam, 20 minutes each from 0040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Dec 15 at 1438, R. Sana`a clandestine atop IBB Kuwait, just ending Qur`anic sundown call to prayer; still amazingly good signal over here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ZANZIBAR. 11735, Dec 15 at 2043, VP signal with music, cuts off a few seconds later around 2043.3*, typical behavior of ZBC, which sometimes stays on until 2100 or a bit later. No Transmundial, Brasil audible in its absence (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
