Logs
** ARGENTINA [non]. 5800, UT Mon Jan 13 at 0137 via WRMI, RAE Spanish
relay during DX program, recognized as same I was hearing 48 hours
earlier on UT Sat, about Bolivian and Peruvian non-SW stations. Seems
a regular repeat pattern. Several minutes before 0200 both nights,
gospel songs in English were playing, evidently filling out after a
RAE relay which is only 54 minutes long (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 6005, Jan 13 at 0330, carrier at S9+10 and some
undermodulated talk, 0333 song. Presume to be new frequency for R.
Tamazuj, ex-6015. Rocus De Joode, frequency manager of MGLOB relay
station, told us Jan 12 he was about to move away from Zanzibar`s
frequency which also starts at 0330, following a discussion about this
collision among WOR iog members Ron Howard, Wolfgang Bueschel, Tibor
Gaal, and Bill Bingham:

``Hello and Greetings from Madagascar, I noted underneath
correspondence. I was aware of the interference. So I plan to use 6005
kHz (10 kHz away) from tomorrow morning and see if this improves the
situation. According to band scans this should be a clear channel
between 0330 and 0430 UTC in the horn of Africa.

I want to note that my reason to use 6015 kHz was to stay close to
6020 kHz, which I used in the B18 season. However, since Tamazuj
extended with half an hour extra starting A19, I could not use this
anymore because or RRI from 0400 UTC onwards. And at the start of the
B19 season 6015 kHz was free to use with DOL [Zanzibar] with 50 kW in
Swahili reported to be off air.

Considering the extreme low SSN I even consider to swap 6015 kHz and
7315 kHz between MDC and ISS. Not decided yet. 73’s de Rocus @ MDC``

Wolfgang Bueschel and Bill Bingham agree about the two frequencies
now. HFCC A-19 has a wooden registration for EKAla, Sri Lanka at
0100-0430 with 10 kW at 350 degrees across India on 6005 --- but that
site is long gone for YEARS! and indeed no longer mentioned in the
WRTH 2020. BBC ASCENSION is on 6005 only at 0500-0700. Now the 6005
signal also has splatter from 6000 Cuba, despite that being
undermodulated when tuned directly to it. See ZANZIBAR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 6005 ex-6015, R. Tamazuj via MADAGASCAR: q.v.
Recheck at 0427 Jan 13, 6005 is off; must have just missed closing
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U A E. 5995.047, Jan 13 at 0337, JBA carrier off-frequency, a fit
for BBC Arabic via inaccurate DHA site. There is also a weaker carrier
closer to 5995.00 which is unaccounted for: the Korean radio war may
be on but surely not propagating from noontime there (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2016 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
January 12 after 2130 on WRMI 7780, poor-fair S5-S9.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 13 after 0130 on WRMI 7780, VP
S4-S6.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 13 at 0230 checked via UTwente SDR
only: 7780 good, 9395 poor. Also confirmed same time via WRN webcast
to North America at new URL of
http://shoutcast.wrn.org:8025/NAMAAP

Also confirmed from 0402 UT Mon Jan 13 on Area 51 webcast; at 0335
WBCQ 5130.0 was JBA and at 0425, JBA with me (nothing on 6160v, extra
transmitter totally dormant for months like 3265v; other WBCQs now:
9330.00 JBA carrier, 7490.07v S9+10 non-BS gospel huxter).

Also confirmed UT Mon Jan 13 at 0430 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 after
classical music fill, good with trace of lite pulse jamming. Next:
0900 UT Monday Unique Radio NSW 5045-USB

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ZANZIBAR. 6015, Jan 13 at 0330, VP S4-S6 signal seems also
undermodulated, presumably ZBC finally clear of Tamazuj-via-Madagascar
collision; as following a discussion among WOR group members, MGLOB
has just moved its 0330-0430 broadcast down to 6005; see MADAGASCAR.
Ron Howard had originally observed that on 6015, not only were
Zanzibar and Madagascar mixing but also PBS Xinjiang, Urumqi in Kazakh
// 4850 until its 0345*. At 0430 Jan 13 I have a JBA carrier alone on
6015, ZBC fading down (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0538 UT January 13
