Carlos Goncalves: My (repeated) mistake: 5840, World Music R_DNK, Due to lack of

information, I have several times indicated this station as a "pirate station" whereas this

is a *legal* Danish station, owned by Stig Hartvig Nielsen. Needless to say he's entitled

to my apologies request.

And now for strange details so to speak:

By Tomas Burian, CZE: 9650, R.Guinée, Conakry-Sonfonia, F, ID vuzekute R.Guinee

journal.

--- what's "vuzekute" ? "Vous écoutez" would be appropriate.

----------------------------

By Manuel Méndez, E: 11735, Radio Transmundial, Santa María, news, “Estas foran as

principais noticias aqui na Trans-mundial”, “5 horas 1 minuto en Brasilia”, “Esta e a

Radio Transmndial, transmitindo de Santa María, Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil...”.

--- This is what it should read, *not* Castilian-polluted sentences which onlymislead

other readers: Rádio Transmundial, Santa Maria, ..., estas foram as principais notícias;

aqui na Transmundial, 5 horas, 1 minuto em Brasília, Esta é a Rádio Transmundial,

transmitindo de Santa Maria, ... ---

I fail to understand why on earth non-speakers insist in writing such rpts.

Good DX and regards, Carlos.

------------------000000------------------

Some additional comments from your editor regarding the log entries. See

this merely as a wish-list to simplify the job of editing as all of you use diffe-

rent formats.

- Use a space after . or , (point or comma)

- No need to enter 4920,0 or 4920,00 if a station is spot on nominal frequency, use the

simple 4920. Decimals are only needed if the station is out of nominal frequency.

- You don't need to specify langauge for stations who always use their native language,

like Portuguese for Brazilians or Spanish for most other Latin Americans.

THE GOOD OLD DAYS OF MW DXING Occasionally we talk of the "good old days" of mediumwave DXing, usually referring to

back in the 1960s and earlier. Was it better? By how much? I tabulated the difference

between what was on the band in 1941 and 2018. Too much info to paste into a post

here. Check it out on my blog:

dxing.html

July 9, ABDX yg via DXLD)

Stopdate for next

SWB is Aug 12.

An almost sensational

entry on the tropical

band is Radio la Voz

de Pueblo on 4920,8.

Our friend Pedro F.

Arrunátegui was the

first to hear the station

and it was at first not

possible identify the

station but he could

get the location in

Peru. But after a few

days listening Pedro

managed to also get

the name R la Voz de

Pueblo. A few have

already logged this

station.

There is more infor-

mation in the section

"Station News".

To the right you can

find some comments

from Carlos Gon-

calves where he asks

you to be careful with

the languages.

I also have some

additional comments

regarding the way

some of you write

logs.

I assume the same

comments are valid

also for the logs in

other bulletins.

Congrats to France

for winning the

breathless six goal

thriller.

Hope you all will

enjoy the coming

holiday season.

Keep on ….

ID for "NBC Madang, Maus Blong Garamut." July 11, from 1156 till cut off at 1219*; on

the air slightly longer than normal (Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA, USA)

3325 Jul6 1215 Voice of Indonesia, via RRI Palangkaraya, back to normal operation after yesterda-

y's 1215+ carrier only signal; today started around 1100 (mixing with NBC Bougainville);

at 1300, was fairly readable in English, as NBC was gone by then; the usual "9-5-2-5

kilohertz" intro.

At 1301, the VOI news (interesting item about Argentine Ambassador to Indonesia ex-

pressed his appreciation for the launch of Broadcast Program Exchange with Radio Repu-

blik Indonesia today. According to him, radio is one medium that is relied upon by the

people of Argentina in obtaining information. He said "Radio was an important tool in the

past, but radio may still be the strongest communication tool in my country. Radio pro-

grams spread in Argentina. Everyone listens to radio, in the car, while working, you hear

people's comments." To date, four countries have signed cooperation agreements with RRI

regarding the sharing of information/programs, namely Russia, Thailand, Brunei and Ma-

laysia); followed by "Today's Commentary."

At 1314, "Today in History" (July 6, 1975, the Comoros Islands, off coast of Africa, dec-

lared independence; this date in 1998, the Hong Kong Kai Tak airport closed, and this date

2007, the IOC approved the creation of a youth version of the Olympic Games). Very

enjoyable to again hear the VOI in English with decent reception! (Ron Howard, Asilomar

the unID/new Peruvian reported by Daniel Wyllyans as ``4920``, in HCDX:

``4920 kHz UNID (Banda Tropical) Passando música andina e salsa. No inicio do vídeo a

mulher fala "Salsa" às 0144 UT, 04 de Julho 2018/ Esperei até hoje 05 Julho ficando na

escuta porém não houve nehuma ID, sòmente tocando músicas. Fiz um rápido estudo da

banda tropical em 4920 kHz. Houve no passado a Radio Quito (Equador), Radio Caracas

YVKR (Venezuela) e Radio RICA (Radio Informaciones de Centro America), (Nicarágua).

Chequei o streaming de áudio ao vivo dessas emissoras e nenhuma não deu o mesmo

resultado. Como tocam muita Salsa a suspeita vai para Colômbia. Talvez um pirata? Mas

quem teria um transmissor de alta potência? Porque aqui cobriu a PBS Xizang em boa

parte dos horários. Cuba também tem salsa más acho que esse transmissor está em algum

lugar dos Andes (América do sul). https://youtu.be/bLGBKjduTu8

This station observed here in New Zealand since 0410 UTC tune in today (7 July) on

4920.78 kHz with non-stop Latin American vocals - have recorded it for analysis but no

4920.8 Jul11 0540 Radio La Voz del Pueblo, Santiago de Chuco (Thank you to Pedro Arrunátegui for identi-

fyieng this station), at first only carrier detected, but later songs can be heard. Extremely

weak, barely audible. Also 0445-0540, Jul12, very weak, but between about 0510-0525

very good propagation and the station heard clearly with very nice program of non stop

peruvian songs, later signal inaudible. (Méndez)

0500, significant improvement to SINPO 35333 as the gray line approached NZ. By 0520,

one of the strongest signals on the 60 mb, surpassing R Clube do Para on 4885 and almost

rivaling R Rebelde on 5025. Five min audio recording here with vy nice signal into NZ:

via Selebi-Phikwe, of all places, a.k.a. Moeping Hill. In east-central Botswana near the

Zimbabwe border, S-P is the sixth largest city in Botswana, somewhat SSE of Francistown

(still named that?) which was once known as a radio site. Moeping Hill is *much* harder

to locate, as it may just be a real hill rather than a populated place. All the few Google

search hits on ``"moeping hill" botswana`` lead to DX reports about it! including my own,

and Bill Whitacre`s 909 kHz logs from Maine (at IBB, he surely knows exactly where it

is). I assume the Botswana relay was not originally set up to serve the Mideast, but why

not, if there is a convenient antenna, and an hour to spare on some transmitter? HFCC

shows it`s 100 kW at 10 degrees. That angle misses Kurdistanish Iraq and Iran, rather thru

Israel, Lebanon, Syria into Kurdistanish Turkey. E.g. distance to Diyarbakir is 6.8 mega-

meters or over 4.2 kilomiles, overland (Glenn Hauser, OK)

4920.8 PERÚ, R. La Voz del Pueblo, Santiago de Chuco, La

libertad 1140-1340 UTC 33333 mx variada.. ID “Radio la Voz

del Pueblo, transmitiendo en la banda de 60 metros en los

4910…” Indican como se encuentran en el dial, junto a Nor

andina, (el locutor explica como encontrarlos en el día de un

radio). (Escuchar grabación) dicen que su QTH es Poemas

Humanos 650 Altos San José.. El nombre de la calle se debe

capaz a que en esa ciudad nació el poeta Cesar Vallejos, incluso

en algunas canciones que ellos ponen, citan a este poeta.

Desde el 4 de Julio, en diferentes días y horarios, he venido

tratando de escuchar esta estación con sus problemas iniciales

de operatividad, el s/on lo efectuaban inicialmente a la 1800

UTC (1 de la tarde como indican en su grabación, después su

s/off lo fueron variando inicialmente a las 0300, 0330 UTC

hasta hace dos días que lo están efectuando a las 0400 UTC,

siempre cortando la mx sin indicación alguna.

Hoy trate de ver si salían al aire en la mañana, de un momento

a otro a las 1200 UTC, salieron al aire y en un px que por pri-

mera vez lo escucho, dicen su ID. (Después de varias oportuni-

dad en que solo trasmitían mx variada sin ninguna indicación)

Por la mx variada que ponen y un comercial de un corrida de toros, no creo que sea una estación con fines bíblicos..

tal como aparece en la hoja de propaganda. Cabe indicar que en las varias escuchas efectuadas no han pasado ningún

mensaje y/o px bíblico.

Parece ser la estación 4910 OAW2H según el WRTH 2018 pag. 318, ellos no pueden salir al aire si no cuentan con el

permiso previo a MTC.. Bueno tiempo al tiempo y sabremos más de ellos.

Con este reporte doy término a mi tiempo sabático sobre nuestro DX, nuevamente estaré participando en el sideral

mundo de nuestro DXLA.

Agradezco a Henrik Klemetz y Tore Vik sobre las diferentes comunicaciones y soporte sobre esta estación para logar

su ID, al fin lo logramos....

Estoy usando un antena de hilo largo de 20 metros acompañado del Elad ASA-42 y RSP1A

Reportagem UNID 4920 kHz Suspeito (Peru)

Hoje 05 de junho fiquei na escuta na maior parte de 10 UTC se 14 UTC Novamente não houve identificação o sinal é bem

forte inclusive 11 da manhã em meu QTH.As 11 da manhã somente estava chegando em ondas tropicais de 60 metros as

emissoras Brasileiras e Peruanas sinal fraco. Já está decidido as músicas são Peruanas mesmo tendo a salsa.Mencionado pelo

dexista do Chile Claudio Galaz.O segundo motivo que me foi enviando uma foto pelo dexista Argentino Marcos Rodriguez

que torna o Peru mais suspeito ainda...

Veja no Link: http://www.dawnbible.com/es/anuncios.htm

Tips oid 4920 kHz misstänkt (Peru)

Idag 5 juni lyssnade jag större dele mellan 10 och 14 utc. Som tidigare ingen id, signalen är hyfsat stark även kl 11 utc i mitt

QTH. Kl 11 på morgonen var det bara brassar och peruaner som hördes med svaga signaler. Det är klart att musiken är

peruansk även salsa-musiken. Rapporterad av chilenske DXaren Claudio Galaz. Anledning nr 2 är ett foto från den argen-

tinske dxare Marcos Rodríguez som gör att jag misstänker Peru ännu mer. Kolla länken: …..

*RADIO INTERNACIONAL “ECOS DEL ALBA” / OAZ 9A4,920 khz (60 metros)* Mesmo sendo uma emissora gospel

eles podem sim tocar músicas de bom gosto Peruana.Enviei um email na esperança de confirmarem se é a mesma emissora

Peruana.

Claudio Galaz

Radio Interacional Ecos del Alba (alba betyder gryning, min anm.( OAZ9A 4920. Även om det är en gospel-station kan den

spela peruansk popmusik. Jag skickade ett email i hopp om att få bekräftat att det är samma peruanska station.

Claudio Galaz

A musica é peruana. A musica é Huayno andino ou serrano.

Daniel Wyllyans PT9008SWL

Claudio Galaz Muito obrigado para sua explanação e informação forte 73 e bons DX.

Claudio Galaz

Bra undersökning av Claudio. Sångerskan är Esvilda Avila. Hon är peruanska https://....

Marcos, aquella música es popular. En el norte de Chile suele escucharse por los migrantes peruanos, razón por la que ubico

el genero.

Marcos, det är popmusik. I norra Chile hör man den hos peruanska invandrare.

Sí lo sé y todo vale para ir filtrando. Los hermanos de Brasil al Sur comparten con nosotros el Chamamé.

Det vet jag och det duger för att komma närmare sakens kärna. Brasilianernas grannar i söder (=argentinarna!) delar cha-

mamé (musikrytmen) med oss.

Comments from Glenn Hauser, DXLD:

It`s on FB, with a number of logo grafix dating back to May - June 2017, mentioning 4910 kHz --- of course, no one

ever heard them on that frequency, or 4920+ until recently.

I retype the florid content of the grafix:

``Radio la Voz del Pueblo

Al pie del majestuoso Quilla Hirca, al frente del rebelde Huacapongo y la hospitalaria Chiminiga, desde el histórico

Pichi Paccha, como un rayo de luz, nace radio LA VOZ DEL PUEBLO, el mensajero andino de la voz telúrica de los

chucos y sus ondas vuelan por los cielos del mundo como el condor milenario llegando la antorcha del mensaje chuco

a los pueblos. Escúchelo en el punto exacto [sic] de su dial 4910 kh.

Radio LA VOZ DEL PUEBLO, siempre en tu corazon, con la mejor programación: música variada, noticias, entrevis-

page 11

tas, todo lo que quieras escuchar y difundir.

¡PROPICIAMOS LA LIBERTAD, LA INTEGRACION Y LA VERDAD!

Radio La Voz del Pueblo, tu radio, pone a tu disposición la hora del folclor santiaguino. Disfruta de tu música, de tus

sonidos que hacen historia...``

Now the question is, whether they are +0.761 kHz off-frequency, or really believe they are on announced 4910, and

thus +10.761 kHz off??

Besides the rare discovery of a brand-new SW station, we`re glad to learn that this has led Pedro to end his almost 2-

year ``sabbatical`` away from DXing! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

AUSTRALIA. 5055 4KZ.

Hi Glenn,

Sent off an inquiry to Al Kirton (general manager of Radio 4KZ). Appreciate his response received on June 30, at

0212 UT: "5055 has been on the air every day. Due to seasonal conditions, we are only running 5055 between 6 am

[2000 UT] and 8 pm [1000 UT] local time. Our target area is 1000 km around Innisfail [Queensland - Ron]. The signal

dies sharply in this region before 7pm [0900 UT].

Our times will vary with the seasons."

Innisfail sunrise now at 6:47 AM AEST (2047 UT) and sunset at 5:52 PM AEST (0752 UT).

Back on June 4 & 6, I reported former sign off time for 4KZ, at 1353* UT (11:53 PM AEST).

AUSTRALIA. [WOR] China's growing radio presence in the Pacific?

Pacific: Recently, the DX Listening Digest documented some articles concerning "China Radio International grabbing

up Radio Australia frequencies". As short wave listeners, we know "the rest of the story". Kai Ludwig already made

the necessary comments, but wondered about the situation on FM.

If you leave out New Zealand and the islands under Australian, British, French, New Zealand and US control, you get

13 island states. Looking at the World Radio TV Handbook 2018, you find many program relays (BBC, R. Australia,

RNZ Pacific), which might be only partially documented in the WRTH 2018. So one can only compare the specially

designated 24-h-FM-relays of the competitors. The result looks like this:

Cook Islands: R. Australia

Fiji: BBC World Service, R. Australia, R. France Internationale

Kiribati: BBC, R. Australia

Papua New Guinea: BBC, R. Australia

Samoa: China Radio International, R. Australia Solomon Islands: R. Australia

Tonga: CRI, R. Australia

Vanuatu: BBC, CRI, R. Australia, R. France Internationale It is difficult to research the TV situation and other media,

but at least regarding the FM presence, Radio Australia is still a clear leader (Dr Hansjoerg Biener, 2 July 2018, DX

LISTENING DIGEST)

BRAZIL. July 13 at 0543-0554 UT, I survey the mostly JBA carriers from overnight stations, some with a bit of au-

dio, to measure them precisely, as to be a Brazilian SW station, you *must* be off-frequency:

11934.938, R. Evangelizar

11855.825, R. Aparecida

9818.834, R. Nove de Julho

9725.359, R. Evangelizar

9664.408, R. Voz Missionária

9630.552, R. Aparecida

9564.960, Super R. Deus é Amor [vs over-run Cuban jamming]

KOREA. Echo of Hope - Voice of Hope (VOH)

June 22 - Interesting happenings with Echo of Hope - Voice of Hope (VOH). At 1105 UT, noted 4885 was off the air;

very unusual for them to be off; while all the other VOH frequencies were jammed by N. Korea (3985, 5995, 6250,

6350, and also 9100). Hiroyuki Komatsubara (Japan), at 0918, also found 4885 silent. Rechecking at 1148, I heard

4885 back on the air with their usual good signal and as is normally the case with no jamming at all.

4885 (not jammed) // 9100 (jammed), had singing station jingle at 1157, along with chimes and full ID in Korean;

1200 with "Onule Soshi" (Today's News), but then very surprised to hear the jamming on 9100 ended at 1200, be-

coming as good as 4885.

My 4885 kHz. audio, 1157+ UT (singing station jingle, chimes & ID) at http://goo.gl/an4gjA

My 9100 kHz. audio at 1159+ UT (jammed and clear ending of it with the news), at http://goo.gl/jSJ16M

BOLIVIA, 6134.8, Radio Santa Cruz, Santa Cruz de la Sierra is on air again, but with distorted signal. Heard here in

Reinante, 2329-2340, 22-06, . Spanish, comments, very weak, distorted and with interference from Aparecida. 12321.

June 20 and 21 I heard it via SDR Kiwi Paraguay and Pardihno, Sao Pauo, 6134.88 kHz, at 1015 UTC with Bolivian

songs, comments in Spanish and identifications "Radio Santa Cruz", but very distorted signal. Aparecida out of air at

that moment.

I contacted again with the station to inform them about the distorted signal and here the reply:

"Estimado Manuel:

Continuamos con algunos problemas en la OC, el equipo técnico está trabajando en mejorar las condiciones.

Muchas gracias por el seguimiento y agradecemos poder estar en permanente contacto.

Un fuerte abrazo"

They say they continue with some problems on short wave, and the the technicians are working to improving the

conditions of the transmitter.

[NORDX] DX-Filateli

Även en hopplöst inaktiv fd DX-are kan hitta något som kanske kan

vara av intresse? Det rör sig om ett nytt tyskt frimärke med motiv av en

världsradiomottagare. Passande nog har det en valör på EUR 3,45 som

är lämpligt för porto till utlandet. :-)
