** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, Oct 19 at 0627, HK3QQ at S5, usual Spanish keyboard letters with errors (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11860 & 11930, Oct 19 at 0630, Cuba fails to jam against nothing, since there is an island-wide power failure! 5025 Rebelde also absent, but not unusual even when power is on. Press about that: 2041 GMT Oct 18, New York Times via Brock Whaley, Aiken, SC: ``Power Outage Plunges All of Cuba Into Darkness -- The Cuban government had just announced emergency measures to reduce electricity use — then the power went out across the entire nation. Cuba’s power grid failed and the entire nation plunged into darkness Friday, less than a day after the government stressed the need to paralyze the economy to save electricity in the face of major gasoline shortages and large-scale, regular outages. The electricity went out nationwide Friday morning after a failure at a thermoelectric power plant in Matanzas, east of Havana, Cuba’s Energy Ministry said on X. The blackout came less than a day after the prime minister, Manuel Marrero Cruz, held a late-night television address with state officials to discuss the ongoing electricity crisis, which experts said was the worst the nation — long accustomed to food and electricity shortages — had ever experienced. For weeks, the country has lacked the fuel to run the power grid, which has left large parts of the nation without electricity for 15 to 20 hour stretches.`` Via Vince Cavaseno, Mashpee MA, IRCA: https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/18/world/americas/cuba-power-plant-blackout.html?unlocked_article_code=1.TE4.RWck.J1POdodh4z49&smid=url-share And from RHC itself via Mike Cooper: https://www.radiohc.cu/en/noticias/nacionales/367734-cuba-combatting-the-electro-energy-challenge (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.896, Oct 19 at 1510, JBA carrier direct from Hikari FM pirate, allegedly in Sonora; at 1539 into Utah SDR when measured, correctly calibrated with WWV, music with heavy disco beat, S9; 1601 pause for quick produced announcement, unreadable but unseems Hikari ID.

Already missed preview of topic as news is starting. For B24 from Oct 28, expect this to be on 9690, M/W/F at 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.007-, Oct 18 at 2159, VOT not off the air with IS, 2200 accurate timesignal and s/on, S9+20/30 direct. At 2227 into UTwente when measured, S9+15/25 but much clearer, with `Turkish Folk tales`. 2252 s/off as if it had been the 1230 broadcast on 17620 -- something`s always awry at Ankara; 2253 IS; 2256 restart IS with German IDs to chop 2259* -- something`s always erroneous at Emirler. BTW, as expected in B24, this shifts to 5960 at 2300 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

Considerable storm noise and I can`t copy all his interjexions. A&A are at home = Studio 9 in Deland of Floriduh, right into discussion of Hurricane Milton which hit them last week, so this one is live, and the Oct 12 one a rerun. Storm damage there but they hunkered down and were OK with power out for only 3 days. They were ready with Coleman stove for some hot meals. Also advises running lamps with charcoal starter fluid. Lots of big oak trees were blown down, not much damage to own property. HM spawned 137 tornados, one of which went nearby. Angela ``dresses up`` for the radio - I guess not seminude this time?

A bunch of AWR logs from Masset, BC |
|
Saturday, October 19 2024
I paid a brief visit to Masset this past week and during this time, I spent a fair amount of it checking the various AWR transmissions from numerous sites. Here is a selection of what was heard (and not). All of these, outside of Guam, cease on October 26th. I'll especially miss the Volondry, Madagascar AWR transmissions, as reception was virtually always very good. Any errors are mine alone! 73, Walt Salmaniw
GERMANY 11960, 0302-, AWR Tigrinya Oct 16 Excellent reception in Tigrinya from Nauen. The only other 03:00 transmission from AWR is a local broadcast from Madagascar in Malagasy on 6065 kHz. I can see the carrier, but that's about it from Masset. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) AUSTRIA 11955, 1800-, AWR Arabic Oct 16 Good reception in Arabic to North Africa. The other listed AWR transmission is on 9900 in Korean from Guam (100 kW/318 deg), but this one is poor/fair, as there seems to be cochannel interference (?jamming) and a rumble. Also perhaps it's Radio Cairo's sick transmitter (that one in Turkish). (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) GERMANY 9780, 2000-, AWR French Oct 15 Fair reception with IS and English announcement into French programming to North Africa // 9555 (Nauen as well 250 kW/185 deg) a little weaker. Also on at 20:00 with AWR programming is 11955 in Dyula language to West Africa at good level although with a transmitter whistle (Moosbrunn, Austria with 100 kW/210 deg), 11800 in Moore language to West Africa at good to very good level (Nauen, Germany 250 kW/200 deg), and 9900 in Korean, very poor (Agat, Guam with 100 kW/315 deg). (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) GERMANY 11790, 2030-, AWR Yoruba Oct 15 Fair reception with IS and English AWR ID into Yoruba language to West Africa. At same time, French to West Africa at good to very good level via Moosbrunn, Austria on 15440 with 100 kW/210 deg. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) GERMANY 12040, 2113-, AWR Nigerian Pidgin Oct 18 Very good reception, although somewhat weak modulation with many English words, giving AWR address with POB in Nigeria. The only other AWR transmission this half hour is via Guam in Mandarin at fair level on 11750 (100 kW/315 deg). At 21:30, 12040 switches to Twi language. Interesting that the best SNR reception is on my 110 deg DKAZ, which just might be off the back end of the antenna, or via LP otherwise. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) GERMANY 12040, 2100-, AWR Nigerian Pidgin Oct 15 OC with a bit of a buzz, then AWR sign on at 21:00 with fanfare and announcing Pidgin broadcast. This is Nigerian Pidgin. Fair to good reception. At same time, 11750 from Guam (100 kW/315 deg) is in Mandarin but only very poor. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) GUAM 12060, 1530-1559, AWR Tibetan Oct 18 Most days it's in English, but scheduled in Tibetan on Fridays and Saturdays. Fair reception with somewhat muddy audio (the speech component). Lots of Tibetan sounding music. Fair reception. Sign off announcement in English From the beautiful Pacific island of Guam, this is Adventist World Radio the Voice of Hope. Now concluding our educational and inspirational program at (?) 100,000 Watts... (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) MADAGASCAR 11850, 1755-, AWR Kiswahili Oct 16 Superb reception (as is so often the case from Volondry to Masset) with a lovely presumed Swahili female choir. Listed in the AWR schedule as 'Kiswahili'to East Africa. Music sounds a lot like Pacific Islands music! To 17:59 without any announcement, then transmitter cut. During the 17:30 half hour, also heard were the following AWR transmissions: 17570 in Masai to East Africa at good level via Nauen (250 kW/115 or 155 deg depending on source...latter makes more sense), 17725 in Oromo at good level via Nauen (250 kW/145 deg) to East Africa. Nothing heard on the scheduled Korean broadcast from Trincomalee on 15530. We now know that the site has been down since late September. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) MADAGASCAR 11875, 1630-, AWR Somali Oct 15 Unfortunately, a bit of a mess here due to cochannel CRI Urumqui in Russian. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) MADAGASCAR 11875, 2200-, AWR Vietnamese Oct 15 Superb reception from 22:00 in Vietnamese with a preacher speaking. From Volondry, Madagascar with 250 kW/50 deg. At this hour, also in Dayak to SE Asia on 15320 (poor to fair) via Tashkent. Mandarin on 9490 (poor to fair) via Tashkent with 100 kW/76 deg, 15625 via Guam (very poor) with 100 kW/330 deg. English 1/2 hour is not on today despite their schedule of Sunday/Tuesday/Thursday via Trincomalee, Sri Lanka. Confirmed by several Indian region SDRs. At 22:30, Javanese is listed on 15320 from Tashkent, but only a carrier is seen. Too weak for any audio. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) MADAGASCAR 17730, 1613-, AWR Marathi Oct 15 Best AWR transmission during this half-hour with lovely Indian music with many mentions of AWR. Not quite armchair copy but close. AWR is closing most of their broadcasts after the A24 season ends on October 26th. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) MADAGASCAR 17790, 0550-, AWR Arabic Oct 17 Interesting to listen to this frequency. Good to very good level to before the top of the hour. The transmitter cut, and within a minute, on came Nauen with an equally good level (250 kW/200 deg) with AWR fanfare and into French. //for French was 15220 (250 kw/200 deg) also from Nauen. At the same 06:00 hour, Arabic was superb on 15560 (100 kW/75 deg) via Moosbrunn, Austria. That was a much more orderly transition compared to the mess on 17515 before and after 02:00!. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) SRI LANKA (NON) 15625, 2308-, AWR Oct 15 No sign at all from AWR Trincomalee and confirmed that they were not broadcasting in listed Mandarin via several SE Asian SDRs. The only other AWR transmission during this time period is in Khmer on 9700 via Tashkent which is only very poorly heard in Masset. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) TAJIKISTAN 15515, 0200-, AWR English Oct 17 English is transmitted after the Chinese dialects between 01 and 02 via Tashkent. However, about 14 minutes before the TOH, presumed Dushanbe came on with a very dirty transmitter on 1514.89 causing quite a loud hum. The OC remained past the TOH and didn't leave the channel clear until 02:12. Under Tashkent, one can easily hear the AWR fanfare and announcing English as the next program, with Tashkent in Chinese dialect continuing until 2 minutes past the TOH (02:02). Not a pleasant listen due to the clash. Also someone is sending CW intermittently on 15513 kHz, starting with 'VVV'. Perhaps my assertion that the off-channel transmitter was from Dushanbe is incorrect. Sometime before the BOH (I checked and it was 02:12), that trasmitter cut, so perhaps it was actually Tashkent all along. Still, the Dushanbe transmitter is VERY dirty with audible medium pitched whine, as well as a low frequency warble. Preaching until about 02:45, and then music with a South Asian bent. At 02:57 the usual AWR multi-lingual IDs, and just before 03:00, announcing that the following program would be in English. No, the transmitter cut a few seconds after 03:00. (Salmaniw,Masset, BC) UZBEKISTAN 15515, 0100-, AWR Min Nan Chinese Oct 16 Excellent reception via Tashkent (listed, although I really wonder with how strong the signals have been both last night and tonight). Listed in Min Nan Chinese which sounds quite a lot softer than Mandarin. Easier on the ears! At 01:30, AWR fanfare and in English, announced the following program in Cantonese (also much less harsh compared to Mandarin). Sources list the same site, but at 100 kW but with same azimuth.

** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, Oct 17 at 0638, HK3QQ, BOGOTA with QWETY+ keyboard letters slowly with pauses. Looks like becoming regular again, 24 hours? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2265)
** TURKEY [and non]. Re VOT on 11785.014- at 2233 Oct 16: ``Glenn, the "higher offset than usual" you 'measured' using UTwente yesterday, Oct 16, was caused by a malfunction for their AMSync-Function. They were 4 Hz +. This function is derived at UTwente by using the German Mainflingen timesignal DCF77 on 77.5 kHz. However this was off for one hour during late European afternoon from 1315 to 1415 UT, when they returned, they had some further two breaks in transmission. See attached pic from a snippet out of yesterdays' UTwente fulltime-waterfall-display. I noticed this non function of AMSync mode a couple of time these last years, with AMSync sometimes 100 to 200 Hz away from carrier. It usually takes a couple of hours for AMSync to be syncronized with DCF77 again. BTW, Kiwi's use GPS data for AMSync - it is called SAM on the Kiwis. See, you logged SW Gold Radio on the 16th as well, with 4 Hz above frequency {6160.004+ at 1813). Listened yesterday to WOF on 6145.004 at around 1915 UT and thought what`s wrong there. WOF is always "on spot". As I said in a post before - UTwente is not the 'Gold Standard' - antenna wise, high noise floor levels and often heavy interference on certain parts of the band. Cheers from Bremerhaven, Lesley Illingworth`` So need to check calibration of UTwente against WWV if audible, and also of KiwiSDRs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2264 monitoring: confirmed UT Thursday October 17 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, S5/S7 into Brasília SDR vs storm noise. Also confirmed Thursday October 17 at 1630 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001-, S9+5/15 into UTwente. This time I compare its calibration to JBA WWVs: 19999999.8 and 24999999.5 - close enough!
