of RHC 13700; also weaker second-orders at double the 68 kHz
displacement, 13837 & 13564 approx. During `Sonido Cubano` music show
which does not deserve such maltreatment. Something`s always wrong at

Logs


9835 kHz festival, hi:

IRAN 9835 exact minus a half Hertz. Noted at 17.21 UT on Dec 25.
IRIB Russian language section at new time,
S=9 in central and northern Europe,
but signal peak more southwards from Iran,
heard rather S=9+15dB strength in Italy, Greece
and Austrian-Yugoslav border area.
Former IRIB Russian given as Sirjan site 500 kW at 336degr azimuth.

The whole technical and program schedule moderate IRIB behavior
in Iran can only be accepted with a violent shake of the head.

On the other hand to compare, Cuba SW Radio is an oasis of wellbeing. 😊


MALAYSIA 9835 even exact, seemingly acc Aoki Nagoya list 100 kW at 93degr
azimuth straight eastwards signal. Poor at remotes in Qatar and Delhi India.

But much stronger at S=8-9 this Dec 26 morning at 10.10 UT in Hiroshima,
Nagara River and at SDR rx in Tokyo Japan.

Likely RTM Kajang 'FM Sarawak' px. Pop mx heard at 10.11 UT. But much poorer
across Kamchatka peninsula, Alaska path into Edmonton, Alberta western
Canada at S=4-5 or -104 dBm level.


KUWAIT 7249.854 usual odd fq. Radio Kuwait Persian service from Kabd
site noted at 09.38 UT on Dec 26. S=9+30 in Doha Qatar,
19.2 kHz wideband excellent audio quality from Radio Kuwait installation.
Non-directional ITU #935 antenna of quadrant type.


CHINA/MONGOLIA 7259.990 / 7260 nearly even fq.
7259.990 PBS Xinjiang Chinese program from Urumqi Changji #523 bcast center.
At 09.50 UT on Dec 26. Also a weaker signal peak seen on x.000 kHz likely
from Ulaan Baatar Mongolia ?

Logs
** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 5045-USB, Dec 25 at 0807 awake this late I
hope to hear at least a trace of Unique Radio, NSW, which is supposed
to be active M/W/F, especially Xmas and Boxing Day Thu; including
WORLD OF RADIO at 0900 --- but cannot; while JBA carriers are
detectable from the other Pacificans, weaker to stronger: < 5055 4KZ <
5020 Solomons < 5040 Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 5980, Dec 25 at 1534, soft songs at S6-S7. Too early for
Turkey before *1700, scheduled this hour as CRI in Japanese so also
USward (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13562 S7 & S9 13838 approx., Dec 25 at 1537, second-order
spurblobs out of 13700-AM RHC at 138 kHz displacements. The lower one
barely far enough from 13565 K6FRC beacon JBA. First-orders about
13631 S9 and 13769 S7-S8, plus/minus 69 kHz. Then I seek and find
traces of further orders: 13908 S4-S5, 13977 S3; and 13493. During
`Sonido Cubano` music which this time is better audible in FM mode on
the closest ones. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11660, Dec 25 at 2250, RHC `Jazz Place` VG S9+30 as I tune by
--- on wrong frequency! English 2200 hour should be on 11880. Well, 8
and 6 can look a lot alike in some fonts; could Xmas Day have brought
an unfamiliar substitute operator in? Excellent modulation too, a
rarity on RHC. Spanish are on usual 11760, 11850. But at 2252, 11660
abruptly cuts off --- better go before gh notices, but too late! I
then retune to 11880 expecting it to come up but never does by 2256,
beyond a couple of split-second attempts to turn it on? Hour almost
over anyway, so let it go. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Dec 26 at 0008, JBA carrier under Cuban jamming, so
seems R. Chaski in another extended broadcast beyond timer cutoff
between 2354 and 2355 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 25 at 2300, REE English with early Xmas music, as
Alison Hughes has previewed, but unusually weak signal mars enjoyment,
S9 fading to S7 instead of solid over 9. Normally VG by this hour, but
11940 and 12030 are propagating even less. Instead I listen for a
while to Voice of Turkey, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 25 at 2301, VOT has managed to come on the air in
English to us, first with news, a lot of it about Turkey`s aid to
Libya; 2307 Review of the Turkish Press; 2309 Review of Foreign Media;
2313 Today in History, Dec 25 events not starting with 6 BCE; 2315
songs past 2330. Recheck at 0008 Dec 26, 5960 is still on, with that
occasional bonus German transmission. Something`s always wrong at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7780, Dec 26 at 0230, RUI via WRMI via UTwente, VG
with their special Xmas show about customs; which religions celebrate
on Dec 25 or Jan 6; not always a strict ortho/catho dichotomy. `This
is a music show equally well-received previous hour. Best audio on
this with AMSynch mode (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U A E. 11655.116, Dec 25 at 1619, JBA carrier way off-frequency. Of
course! It the DHA site during this semihour only with IBRA Radio
Ibrahim in Afar from Sweden (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2013 monitoring: confirmed
Wednesday December 25 from 2200:20 on WBCQ 7490.03v, the reliable
postponed start time, after canned ID, after dead air at 2159.5, after
Bing Crosby Xmasmx instead of `Financial Survival`.

Also confirmed UT Wed Dec 26 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, VG at UTwente, and
unusually good here, S9/+10. Also as usual, Bob Zanotti gets his name
in edgewise just before I start, after the full ID.

WOR 2014 should start SWairing Friday Dec 27 at 0900 on Unique Radio,
NSW, 5045-USB low-power; and on WRMI at 2300 on 9955 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5800, Dec 25 at 2231 and several later chex by 0102 UT Dec
26, NO signal from this WRMI, nor on ex-9425 nor ex-ex-6060, so no
SMTV nor RAE relay after 0100. What happened? Still shown as before on
the skedgrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 4840, Dec 25 at 0811, S9+20 of dead air from WWCR instead of
TOMBS, but far more than enough, he does continue to modulate with
squeal on 3215. The others: 5935 PMS at S9+40/50; 5890 off as it
should be altho was on with its own dead air back at 0519, also S9+50.
Isn`t it incredible how so many stations are incapable of fulfilling
their most basic funxion --- transmitting with modulation?! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9980, Dec 25 at 2234, poor S9-S6 gospel huxter in English
but very undermodulated, hard to follow. 2256 recheck slightly better
closing `Chosen Generation` show; 2258 re-introducing another episode
of same with Pastor Gray, but cut off at 2300:23 for WWCR sign-off
``until later today``. 9980 can blast in earlier, but MUF has now
dropped, and such degraded modulation is very unusual for WWCR. #4
transmitter is scheduled on 9980 for only 10 hours a week, M-F 21-22
Financial Survival and 22-23 Chosen Generation, supposedly with Pastor
Gregory Young per pdf skedgrid. This is the same transmitter as on
5890 later with completely dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A. 610, Dec 25 at 1904 UT, dead air from KCSP Kansas City;
still dead past 1907 in case it were just a newshole failure, but if
modulating it would be daffy sports talk, a far cry from the ancient
WDAF. Could it be that everyhuman possibly responsible be away on
holiday? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6340.9, Dec 25 at 2229, big ute pulser as I am seeking
the Radio Piranha International beacon publicized for 6342, by Jorge
Garcia Dec 25 on HCDX:

``Dear friends. This evening, and the coming days until the 2nd of
January 2020 we will be active with our Beacon transmitter on 6342 kHz
CW. from 23 utc (or before) until 08.00 utc. 10 watts of CW power. 73'
from Jorge``

But soon he changed that to 6343, perhaps for the same reason. Not
audible yet here on either. Is it from South America, or Europe?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

[Typo in my previous report subject; should have been Dec 24-25]
