Glenn Hauser logs September 28-29, 2021

Wednesday, September 29 2021


** CANADA. 15034-USB, Sept 28 at 1738, Trenton Military is on again
but VP S4, Shannon aviation weather (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 13645, Sept 28 at 1743 hilife music, S5-S8. It`s the
CRI Swahili service via MALI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Sept 28 at 1507, tune-in via UTwente to
another weekly Tuesday Kashmir Civitas via IRRS via ROMANIA: S9/+15 in
presumed Urdu, but 1511 abruptly shift to jive music in English!, more
rock, and from 1519 discussion about the Tiananmen Square massacre in
Beijing, interview with a Chinese-American author, Terence Cheng, of a
novel about it, notably the brave anti-tank protester; with music
background until chopped off at 1529* without any RRI IS this time.
Was K.C. really only 11 minutes long this week? Or playback failed and
default to fill material? IRRS webcast is continuous, much of it with
no specific programming but unknown stuff pulled from the web, often
fragmented (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 15720, Sept 29 at 0040, RNZ confirmed on reactivated
frequency but not its true span, VP to the ear but peaking S8-S9 to my
generous meter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 28 at 2155, REE non-English is still somewhat
distorted, but loud & clear on // 17855 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SWEDEN [non]. 15260, Sept 28 at 1737, S7-S9, YL talk in language
unseems Arabish but listed as Arabic from Radio Sama = IBRA Radio, via
Woofferton UK this hour daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 28 at 2152, VOT IS & English ID loop, so looks
good for today unlike absence yesterday, S9/+25 direct and no RTTY
audible in AM --- but detectable in USB, not LSB. Oh2, 2157.6* dumps
off the air; but back on by 2159. Did it remain the whole hour? About
halfway in, it had become JBA on the portable with clipon (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5896.5-USB, Sept 29 at 0045, some weak unreadable 2-way
phone, then mostly beepery until at least 0100. Fortunately there are
no broadcasters nearby but surely will be later. Wonder if NTIA
coördinate this `OOB` area for US broadcasters giving priority to
government/military comms. Last logged May 13, 2020 as MARS net:
http://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2020_0507_0514.txt
which concludes with: ``This is a SHARES net frequency as explained
with my first log July 27, 2016 at the same time
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1630.txt
and there have been several since`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17530, Sept 28 at 1740, VOA discussing need to vaccinate
animals, against rabies, S9/+20 --- a reminder that this 1700-1830
sesquihour is the only time we can hear VOA well in English from
Grimesland - unless too close in the skip zone.

17530 is extensively used for other VOA languages: French, Somali,
Kinyarwanda, Swahili; and sites: Botswana, Vatican violating
Separation of Church and State, São Tomé e Príncipe, Ascension. Can
you mix and match them without uplooking? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
