Glenn Hauser logs April 19-20, 2019

Sunday, April 21 2019


** CUBA. 15140, April 20 at 1240, RHC is S9+10 of dead air, while
15230 successfully modulates. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also EAST TURKISTAN

** CUBA. 7380, April 20 at 2101, strong open carrier, off in less than
a minute. Must be RHC transmitter check, an hour ahead of the 22-24 UT
broadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 13575, April 20 at 1242, soft song with guitar,
maybe in Chinese, since by 1255 it`s CRI saying ``do svidan'ya``,
about to close Russian service, 500 kW, 308 degrees for Europe this
hour only. At S9 it`s the second SSOB after Cuba back on 13740.0 today
(and 13700 not on yet) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LITENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, April 19 at 2228, rock/rap music, het
maybe local notched, past 2235, S8. More unID logs here, maybe Radio
Gaga until 2238*

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5900, April 20 at 0327, TOMBS is S9+10/20, //
not synchro with 7570 WRMI, non-BS speaking English. On this frequency
surely it`s BULGARIA, altho as of April 5-6, Ivo had reported:

SECRETLAND Brother HySTAIRical TOM is no longer
on shortwave via SPL Secretbrod effective from March 31
1500-1700 on 11600 SCB 100 kW / 306 deg to WeEu English
1700-2000 on 9400 SCB 100 kW / 126 deg to N/ME English
1800-2000 on 6000 SCB 050 kW / 030 deg to EaEu English
2000-0300 on 5900 SCB 050 kW / 306 deg to ENAm English

https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/04/brother-hystairical-overcomer-ministry.html
as of April 20 also shows all the SCB relays as inactive including 5900 between 2000 and 0300 (not 0300+).

So what is the span now? It`s always changing, going & coming.

On the contrary, current EiBi shows no BS on 5900 but rather:
5900 0300-0315 G Bible Voice Dardasha-7 A ME /BUL-s
5900 0315-0330 G Bible Voice Dardasha-7 A ME /BUL-s

On the contrary2, while NDXC/Aoki says:
5900 0200-0215 BUL BIBLE VOICE BCN Radio Da Ara Kostinbrod( 1-7
5900 0215-0230 BUL BIBLE VOICE BCN Radio Da Ara Kostinbrod( 1-7

But also with x for off the air:
5900 2000-2100 BUL x The Overcomer Ministry Eng Kostinbrod( 1-7
5900 2100-2200 BUL x The Overcomer Ministry Eng Kostinbrod( 5-3
5900 2200-0200 BUL x The Overcomer Ministry Eng Kostinbrod( 1-7

HFCC A-19 has 5900 available 24 hours from ``Sofia`` aimed toward W
Europe and USward:
5900 0000 2359 27,28,29,38 SOF 250 306 0 618 1234567 310319 271019 D
5000 Eng BUL NEW SPC 8044.

Overcomer Ministry`s own schedule not updated since February! has 5900
Bulgaria at 2000-0300 not for NAm, but Europe/Middle East/Israel
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. 7205, April 20 at 0325, R. Omdurman again fairly
audible; and also carriers from the Eritreans on 7180, 7140 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 19 at 2233, no signal from VOT English to North
America; surely would be audible if on, like 9420 Greece at S9+25!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1978 monitoring: bandscan finds
surprise new time on WRMI 9955: Friday April 19 at 2226, S9+20, so
started at 2200, and now showing on the skedgrid. This becomes the
first US SW broadcast as long as I produce new shows in time.

Also confirmed at next-newest time, UT Saturday April 20 at 0130 on
WRMI 7780, fair with some SSB ACI

Confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1130 on WRMI 9955, VG S9+10/20

Not confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1431 on HLR 9485-CUSB --- no signal
detectable via UTwente, just splash from 9490

Confirmed Saturday April 20 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, S7-S8; after IS & ID
loop, but WOR opening is again upcut: automation misaligned

** U S A. 7505v, April 20 at 0324, WRNO back on for a change, in
English, S7-S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 9705 > 9800 > 11630, 1957 UT April 19, JBA carriers on
frequencies publicized for ``Good Friday`` special from Vatican Radio,
a different language on each but for Africa only and totally useless
here. Ditto Saturday April 20 at 1857 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 14270-USB, April 20 at 2150-2155, simplex DX contacts,
pileups alternating with the target station, frenetic pace with heavy
French? accent. Maybe gives his own call occasionally but cannot
understand it, HB9- or HP9? His would-be contacts, all Americans,
never utter his call, just their own, a sorry breach of etiquette. One
should not have to search a DX cluster for ID, but I give up after
seeing nothing current on this frequency. Bye-bye (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
