Thanks to Carlos Goncalves-POR, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews July 2, who translated
the recent Brazilian news:
4885 R. Maria. At the time of observation, catholic preaching, musical
break and phone-ins w/ listeners' prayers to Our Lady [yes, maybe a phone
nr.]. (...): not R.Difa Acreana nor R.Club do Para, but tests from a new
stn owned by the Our Lady of Aparecida Foundation; tx site at Anapolis GO,
day time power 1 kW/night time power [says 212 kW which is a mistake, so
most probably 212 watt or then 0.12 kW if there was some typing mistake],
ANATEL registered call sign ZYF 692, name "Radio Voz do Coracao da
Imaculada."
Other data:
GC: 16 15 25 00 S 49 01 08 00 W, Base tower: 91.4 m ASL
One main tx, 2 standby units. Manufacturer "Indelmond" - Industria e
Comercio de Aparelhos Electronicos, Lda. Tx model [doesn't say which]:
TBI-OT-1.
Schedule [unclear]: Sun-Sat 0400-2100.
R. Voz do Coracao Imaculado, ex-R.Carajas, was inactive and was sold 4
years ago to the Our Lady of Aparecida Foundation which is reactivating
this channel under the new name "Radio Maria", so new ownership, new stn
albeit using the rig & site of the original stn.
R. Club Paranaense, Curitiba PR left the Eldorado Netw., and its MW ch. is
currently airing Club FM while the 6040 kHz outlet may join R. Evangelizar
AM 1060, owned by Father Reginaldo Manzotti.
R. Globo, Manaus AM, no longer carries R.Globo Brasil prgrs as of 30 May
last. It gets its former name back: R. Bare.
R. Bare, Brazil's oldest stn in the Amazon region, was also affilitated to
the Sistema Globo de Radio; it covers the Amazon State via 1440 & 4895,
and as from that date it airs prgrs form the IURD owned "Rede Aleluia de
Comunicacao" network.
CBN stns & CBN Anhangueera get new name as from 29 Jun last. "Radio Daqui"

CHINA 540 / 693. Google Earth imagery. Some high resolution place.
Xianyang-Fengxi (Shaanxi Tr. Station #3) 540/693 kHz:
34 18 14 N 108 42 20 E
Some recent historical information posted on the Shaanxi PBS website
confirms that this was also the old Shaanxi PBS SW site (on an odd
frequency like 6176 kHz, as far as I recall). The following is an excerpt
from an article by Zhu Jinying at
<http://www.sxradio.com.cn/col295/col687/article.htm1?id=71425>
"In 1956, the Central Broadcasting Bureau invested nearly one million yuan
to construct a high-power mediumwave transmitting station for Shaanxi
Province at Xianyang. This was Transmitting Station Number Three, which
formally began transmitting the programmes of Shaanxi PBS on 880 kHz from
21 May 1957. This brought a significant improvement in reception for the
Central Shaanxi area. At night there was a clear increase in the service
area, and the station rapidly encouraged the development of crystal
receivers [sic]. In September 1958 the frequency was changed to 900 kHz.
"On 1 April 1974, Station 3 brought into service a 15 Watt [?kilowatt]
shortwave transmitter manufactured by the Harbin Broadcasting Equipment
Plant. This improved reception in the remote northern and southern parts
of Shaanxi, and gave a better signal source for these areas allowing it to
be used as a relay feed. In 1979 a 10 kW shortwave transmitting truck was
purchased to provide a reserve transmitter for the shortwave service.
"By the 1980s, there was a need for the old equipment at Station Three to
be renewed and rebuilt, so the Provincial Broadcasting Department decided
to use a 200 kW warfare reserve transmitter to replace the original 150 kW
unit, while the Central People's Broadcasting Station invested in a 50 kW
transmitter to replace its original 30 kW unit. In late 1984 a new
transmitter hall was built, and in June 1985, once construction works were
complete, the comrades at Station Three began dismantling and moving the
warfare reserve transmitter for installation in the new transmitter hall
[...] where it was powered up and brought into service on 8 November 1986
after the installation and adjustment were completed.
"To meet the public demand for quality radio and to improve the reception
of the 1st Programme, Shaanxi PBS decided to equip itself with the latest
generation of high-powered transmitting equipment. On 15 October 2003 the
200 kW and 50 kW valve transmitters were dismantled. A 100 kW solid-state
digital AM mediumwave transmitter manufactured by the Shaanxi Haina
Communications Co Ltd was purchased and installed in the newly renovated
southern transmitter hall (constructed in 1984). The Shaanxi PBS 1st
Programme was transmitted through the 151 metre southern tower, using the
first ever Chinese-manufactured 100 kW digital AM transmitter to be
brought into service.
"In November two 50 kW transmitters which had been operating in \\ were
separated. One 50 kW unit is used as the main transmitter for CPBS-1 [i.e.
CNR-1] on 540 kHz using the 151.5 metre southwestern tower(s), while the
other 50 kW unit serves as a reserve transmitter for Shaanxi PBS-1 (693
kHz) using the 151.5 metre high northern tower. A 25 kW PDM transmitter
originally manufactured in Shanghai is used as a reserve transmitter for
CPBS-1 (540 kHz) using the 76 metre southern tower."

CUBA 5965 RHC 1511-1550 July 4, 2009. Parallel 6000, 11690, 11760,
11800 with nonstop Spanish coverage of the alleged Honduran coup and
deposed President Zelaya. Mostly field reports from Tegucigalpa and (of
course) Caracas. Most tagged not as RHC but Radiocubana. Some produced
propaganda segments, such as a skit in Spanish against" United Fruit"
(Company's) abuse of the Honduran people and land. Of course, touchng upon
the Contras, Ronald Reagan evils, FSLN triumphs, etc. Even a brief segment
of the Honduran national anthem. Trying to stir the pot in Honduras,
obviously, as if anyone is listening. All still there 1840 check, and 5965
and 6000 only on, or at least audible, 2250 UT check.
5965 RHC 1610-1710 July 5, 2009. Back at it again, though only 6000 and
11760 parallels active or at least audible here today. However, this time
in parallel to Rebelde (5025 and all audible MW channels) with what turned
out to be the Argy hottie Prime Minister Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner
speaking somewhere (OAS?) about what else the condemnation of the faux
Honduran coup. Rebelde resumed programming at 1700 with canned "Rebelde de
la Habana" and into Noticiero Nacional de Radio new feed, and RHC
continuing the Honduran blather.

15120 RHC noted at 1400-1500 UT in Europe, S=7 signal.
(wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews July 2)
RHC UT July 10: at 0551 Spanish on 6140, 6120 and very poor signal on
6000; in fact it was marred by splatter from much stronger RHC English
during music on 6010, \\ 6060. Cuban Commies vs Cuban Commies!
RHC is still running an extra(?) transmitter in the mornings on 11800, and
it is still very distorted, at 1339 July 10 during sports segment.
However, at 1342 the big signal on 13780 was missing, tho 13680 and 13760
were nominal.
Is RHC still on the air at mid-day contrary to schedule? Yes, July 10 at
1847 check best on 11760, audible on 13760, and a weak signal probably RHC
as before, on 11800 kHz.

the plug at 2200. Nice listening. Let the strike continue.

FRANCE/POLAND 5945/15160 In past three weeks Polskie Radio Warsaw
German service on 5945 kHz via Issoudun missed, according Paul Gager and
other members of A-DX ng. But instead heard AWR Hindi service there, which
is also scheduled at 1530-1559 UT via Issoudun on 15160 kHz.
5945 1530-1559 28NW ISS 100 55 2903-241009 PRW signal S=9+30dB

AWR Hindi in Issoudun ueber 5945 und 15160 kHz um 1530-1600 UT. Zwischen
der Tour de France Verfolgung habe ich heute mal um 1530 UT in die M&B/TDF
Services hinein gehoert:
Wie Paul Gager schon vor 2 Wochen berichtete, ist Polskie Radio Warschau
um 1530-1600 UT auf 5945 kHz nicht hoerbar, dafuer aber das Programm AWR
India in der Hindisprache. Dies in \\ zu der regulaeren 15160 kHz. Beide
kommen aus Issoudun Frankreich. M&B gehoert ja seit der Trennung von T-
systems den Franzosen TDF.
Werde mal die M&B Leute in Koeln informieren, dass sie seit dem 1.6.? in
Issoudun ein falsches Satellitenprogramm abgreifen.

5945 PRW German service back on air July 10. 5945 kHz S=9+20 dB in
Stuttgart. So, PRW in deutscher Sprache heute 10. Juli wieder auf Sendung
via Issoudun France. Die Mail hat doch etwas bewirkt.

Here the situation is such that the licence fee for Polskie Radio and TVP
will be replaced by direct state funding as of 2010. However, the original
plan was to determine a minimum budget of about 900 million Zloty. This
has been eliminated in the legislation process, instead the parliament
will now decide on the budget every year. Thus Polskie Radio and TVP are
in fear over their future and independence. Deutsche Presse-Agentur
report:
<http://www2.informationweek.de/wirtschaftsnews/artikel/8411/>
Now the foreign service of Polskie Radio fears that they could be amongst
the first things to be axed if PR runs out of money. Thus they sounded the
alarm.
At the same time Polskie Radio in German did not go out 1530-1600 on 5945
kHz [via Issoudun] for at least two weeks, instead AWR Hindi had been put
on air. This could happen because Issoudun transmits it at the same time
on 15160 kHz. And nobody, besides a single listener, noticed. Not really
promising.

(Ian Baxter-D, SW TXsite July 9)
Are here problems with different coordinate systems in play? Hitting the
referenced ones into Google Maps just leads to open pasture land, and I
see no transmission facilities in the vicinity of this location either.
[later] Aha: This looks indeed like a now closed mediumwave facility. Note
also the apparent cooling water ponds. The large one to the right appears
to be empty now, the small one to the left (if it is a basin at all) has
even been levelled. The main structure seems to be the transmitter hall,
half underground and with high windows.
When reviewing the matter of mediumwave sites in Pyongyang area it appears
to be understood that 819 kHz / 500 kW and 657 kHz / 1500 kW are not co-
located. For the latter the site has been specified as Kangnam. Such a
settlement appears on maps south of Pyongyang, but looking at satellite
images did not reveal a mediumwave site there so far.
Furthermore there is also 1368 kHz with 2 kW, so this must be a
transmitter within or in the outskirts of Pyongyang, probably but not
necessarily co-located with high power facilities.
Perhaps whatever kind of consolidation made the facility seen here
redundant?

LAOS 4412.62v Lao National Radio via Sam Neua, 1218-1231*, July 8.
Unusual programming; perhaps problem with the feed from Vientiane? For the
first time heard them post-1200 not in parallel with 6130. Heard non-stop
nice SE Asia music and songs; brief sign-off announcement followed by
choral National Anthem (Pheng Xat Lao) till off. 6130 had the usual news
program till BoH.
(Ron Howard-CA-USA, dxld July 8)
6130 LNR, at 1416-1423 UT on June 29 (Mon.). Starts after the news in
Laotian; introduction in Laotian for "Functioning in Business" mentions
"VOA", who produces this program in English; "Hello. I am Elizabeth Moore.
Welcome to Functioning in Business"; show about making and confirming
reservations (sounded like a repeat program); poor. Scheduled for Mon. and
Tues., but often also noted on Fri. and Sat., for the 1415-1430 UT time
period.
7145 Lao National Radio, at 1308-1348 UT on June 29. Best reception so
far; in French with musical fanfare between items; 1331 UT into English
("... UT, on a frequency of 97.25 MHz."), thanks to Mauno Ritola for
confirmation that this FM frequency is Laos; M & W alternating with assume
news items. Summer noise and ham QRM after 1329 UT made for poor
reception, but the French segment was almost fair. Nice to have this back
on the air again!

MOROCCO Re: 207 kHz ? If so, we may be hearing the same station ... I
doubt Morocco's RTM in Azilal on 207 kHz is running the same power output
it did a few years ago when it boomed in at the Jim Renfrew receiver in
Byron upstate New York) using a simple longwire and a Magnetic loop is
better than the average Beverage let alone the average longwire and
someone tentatively caught them in Alberta (Nigel Pimblett)...
It would have boomed also with a beverage. Just good condx Bogdan. I can
tell you, I have a large loop (actually a K9AY) and a few beverages and
those ALWAYS outperform the K9AY. This is why during dxpeditions,
beverages are often prefered over other antennas. If you don't have enough
real estate, then loops become the obvious choice.

MYANMAR 9730.79, Myanma Radio, 1242-1303 + 1334-1530*, July 4. In
vernacular; playing wide range of music (indigenous music/singing, pop
western style tunes sung in vernacular, pop/rap songs, etc); CRI QRM
(English) on 9730.0 till off at 1357; best in USB; from 1357 to 1500 UT
reception was fair; the usual indigenous instrumental music before sign-
off. New sign-off time? (ex: 1512*); clearly \\ with 5915 (poor under
CRI). Believe the addition of this frequency in \\ is a very recent
development.
If today is any indication, this clearly is no longer their Educational
Service. The format is completely different than in the past, when they
had lessons about chemical and math formulas, English language lessons,
etc. Have they started a new service? If so, I will miss hearing their
English lessons. This was not \\ to 5985 nor 5770 kHz. Have posted audio
file to "File > Station Sounds
5770 Myanmar Defense Forces BS via Taunggyi, 1225-1240, July 4. In
vernacular; EZL pop songs in vernacular; 1232 the usual military marching
band music at their local ToH (also noted again at 1331). A good day for
Myanmar reception.
5985.0 Myanma Radio, 1305-1330, July 4. Even though I have not recently
reported on Myanmar, they have been routinely heard, just not as strong as
their winter time reception. In vernacular; EZL pop songs in vernacular;
usual indigenous music and chimes at BoH (their local ToH).
(Ron Howard-CA-USA, dxld July 4)
Myanmar - logs and audio file. I confirmed Myanma Radio on 9730.83 kHz at
1530* UT on July 5, too. Hiroshi confirmed \\ with 5915 kHz. Severe QRMed
CRI on same freq.

5915.00 Myanma Radio, at 2345-0014 UT on July 05/06, vernac talk,
westernized pop songs about equal strength to co/channel CRI in English
but surfaced when CRI signed off 2356 UT. Reception on 5985 kHz was too
messy for me to be able to make out if 5915 kHz was \\ or not.

(Sei-ichi Hasegawa-JPN, NDXC dxld July 6)
Thank you Sei-ichi for your input. Appreciate your observations! Almost
identical format and reception heard today (July 5) as reported yesterday.
Looks as if this will be a routine frequency to hear. The only difference
today that I observed was that 5915 kHz had a third station mixing with
CRI and Myanma Radio. Suspect it might have been QRM from Radio Zambia /
Radio One. Seems Myanmar has indeed changed their sign-off time
here (ex: 1512*).
What has happened to their Educational Service? Changed frequency and/or a
new time schedule or simply dropped?
(Ron Howard-CA-USA, dxld July 6)
5915 Myanma Radio, randomly from 1247 to 1435, July 8. In vernacular;
holding up well against the usually much stronger CRI; today about equal
strength. 9730.81v kHz was clearly off-the-air today!
(Ron Howard-CA-USA, dxld July 8)

at tune-in, 2300 UT one-minute intro on indigenous instruments, 2301 UT
Bamar? female opening announcement easily dominated co/channel WYFR.
5915.00 did not get going until 2330 UT intro tune, then had a different
opening procedure and seemed to play more westernized pop than 5985 kHz
did. Obviously these two freqs are not \\ .

NETHERLANDS [non, rather FRANCE/GERMANY] . Currently hearing Radio Tour

may have missed it? Good reception on all frequencies: 5955 7235 9595 9895
13700 and 13825 kHz.
Heard from 1458 UT tune-in - RNW website says broadcasts are from 4th July
starting at 2 o'clock in the afternoon (so presumably from 1400 CET 1200
UT?). Not sure how long broadcasts are though.

13825-ISS closed (and 5955-WER 9895-WER and 13700-NAU continued with

Audio routing check at 1430 UT: Issoudun on 7235 kHz is about 1.5 seconds
ahead of Wertachtal on 5955 kHz. Also sounds sharper, with a bit more bass
and considerably more presence boost. Would have been fun to compare it
with Radio 1 itself.
For identifying Radio 1: Watch out for the phrase "op Een" on jingles.
It's a bit in passing, thus could be overlooked after the "Radio Tour de

PORTUGAL Emissora Nacional de Radiodifusao, later RDP and currently the
radio branch of RTP-Radio e Televisao de Portugal. During a visit to the
Faro MW site at Meia Legua (this is between Faro and Olhao) in mid last
week, I learned this place was initially intended for not only a 200+ m
high MW monopole serving a 100 or 200 kW tx but also for a 2nd HF site
dedicated exclusively for the Portuguese Africa. In fact, the site is
huge, many hectares around, with only a small portion actually used now,
viz. for the current 70+ m monopole with capacity hat consisting of just 3
wires sloping from the top.
The old open wire feeder is still to be seen, but the monopole is fed via
co-axial cable from the tx hut housing 3 txs, viz. an old 10 kW Marconi
out of use, a 10 kW Nautel (Canadian) and a 1 kW stand by unit whose brand
I forgot. The house is big enough to accomodate a 100 kW unit, if needed.
The area surrounding the tower is regularly flooded because of the ground
plane (120 radials, typical). The big concrete anchors for the planned
200 m tower are visible amidst the ones securing the existing monopole.
The 200 m tower never materialised because in the meantime the Faro
airport was built, and if you can check on GoogleEarth, you'll understand
why.
No more details about the planned 2nd HF site, but I estimate it was never
built because of the airport.
But in Faro itself, just close to the RDP house, at Campo Senhora da
Saude, along the Calouste Gulbenkian Avenue, the original MW monopole from
the late 40s/early 50s is still up. The place is now surrounded by many
buildings ... and I bet many will ask themselves what the rusty tower is
doing there ...

ich mal davon aus, dass auch die Frequenz 5920 kHz (5920-1089=4831) aus
Krasnodar/Armavir in Betrieb ist - das Problem ist ja nicht neu.
(Patrick Robic-AUT, A-DX July 8)
Ich habe uebrigens beobachtet dass wenn 4831 kHz zu hoeren ist, auch auf
7009 (=5920 + 1089) ein duennes Signal zu hoeren ist. Ist aber so schwach
dass ich nicht erkennen konnte ob es zu 1089/5920 passt.

what about the other building with feeder lines and a long row of masts to
the south? SW curtain antennas, beam 140/320 deg?

SOLOMON ISLANDS There are no shortwave broadcasts at present. The
transmitter on 9541 kHz has been turned off to save electricity. It was
not covering the Solomons, but was being heard elsewhere which was not its
purpose.
The 5020 kHz transmitter is awaiting spare parts and will came back -
sometime!

On the June 29 edition of RNZI Mailbox, which should be available on
demand via
<http://www.rnzi.com/pages/audio.php>
until July 26, Adrian Sainsbury talks about his recent visits to Vanuatu
and Solomon Islands to work on the SW transmitters. (Was there no May 31
edition? The previous audio file is dated May 17.)
He says that as DXers know, SIBC 5020 has been off the air for some time
awaiting spare parts, which are hard to find, and then it takes a long
time to get them to the SI; maybe back in a few months. 9545 is on the
air, or rather 9542 due to a problem with the oscillator in the
transmitter, which they are also working on, but don't expect it to be on
frequency any time soon [actually quite close to 9541.5 _ gh].
Both SI and Vanuatu are picking up DRM from RNZI for relay. Honiara is on
the edge of the coverage area, so requires a large inverted-V antenna for
some additional receiving gain.
The civil war in SI ended six years ago but a lot of people are still
traumatized by it; however, it's safe for tourists to visit. The country
doesn't get much tourism, which is not yet commercialised. There are lots
of Australians there keeping the peace.

Two new 10 kW SW transmitters are being installed now; big inauguration

been lots of reports of 3945 -gh]. Frequencies are 3945, 5050 and 7260.
Plans to use 3945 at night and 5050 in the daytime; 7260 for daytime in

for some seasons now on behalf of Vanuatu, but it has never been used or
reported yet gh]
RV also have a new transmitter building which is well air-conditioned. The
new transmitters should last a long time if they are properly cared for,
avoiding corrosion, etc. Studio equipment has also been upgraded with a
fair amount of Oz and NZ aid; their own technicians have been trained to
look after it. Two Americans are there installing the American-made
transmitters, and Steve White of RNZI accompanied Adrian also to SOLOMON
ISLANDS [q.v.], and has stayed there a while longer as Adrian returned to
NZ. Steve will commission the new equipment when it is finished. DRM
reception of RNZI is good, and used for relaying news broadcasts. SW is
for the outer islands but should be heard further afield too.

LOGS.
Still no sunspots visible yet, or predicted soon? What a crazy time.
Yesterday July 4th at 1410 UT, two 150 kilometers distance close-by
stations even 'folded' my Eton E1 power indicator.
RTBF Wavre on 9970 in French, and Radio Liberty Biblis 9530 in Russian
with powerhouse S=9+40dB signals, much much better than all other stations
on 31 mb.
Today July 5th, yes 6005 BBC ASC was well heard also here in Germany
around 0550 UT [scheduled 4-7 UT].
BUT the various Cuban stations in 49, 31 and 25 mb were really inexistent
here today in 5-7 UT slot ! Even the strongest 6140 channel had a very,
very tiny signal of S=0-1.
