Friends, I messed up. Again. Hermod draws my attention to the fact that I moved Radiodifusora Tropico to Peru in last issue saying "Hmm... I knew that the Peruvians would like a bit more of Ecuador, but the annexation of a large part of Bolivia is NEWS." At least this proves that SOMEONE reads the DX-Window. Sarcasm is always welcome in DX-Window, hi. There's loads of stuff, so let me leave the scene to YOU: ANGOLA Vorgan has been privatized. A (?group) of Angolan companies is now working
on Vorgan's status. As a matter of fact, the Posts and Telecommunications

Different Argentine station relayed concurrently on USB, somewhat weaker, with ballads such as 'Spanish Eyes' at 0452, time signal at 0500 but did not catch ID (DMC) ARMENIA The e-mail address I gave for the Canada Bureau from the Voice of Armenia in one of my recent messages is wrong. You must ommit the '>'. So the correct one is armenag@montrealnet.net (Schotmans) and then, alas: "Dear Guido, I regretfully have to inform you that I am no longer associated with

At 0200: vibraphone and the following ID in SP: "Usted sintoniza a CP3, 1390 KHz, Radio Nacional, desde la Paz, Republica de Bolivia", again the same vibraphone short tune and went off w/o any other ancmt. Signal was quite good. Unfortunately, hadn't enough time left to better measure the exact fqcy, but I think this is more or less .2 or .3 KHz. Nothing at recheck circa 1000-1050. Is this really R. Nacional? Again on Sep 24 on 4200.6a blasting in, w/huayno type mx, tks in Aymara by man who mentioned stn's name twice. Also TC and announced mx theme entitled "La Rosa Blanca". (Nigro) 4201, If it is Radio Nacional from La Paz, it should be noted that this is *not* a government owned station, but rather a privately owned commercial station. Bolivia is unusual in that stations named "Radio Nacional" are privately-owned. Others that may be familiar to DXers are Radio Nacional de Huanuni, which is owned by a miners' union, and Radio Nacional in Cochabamba, which is commercial. Radio Nacional of La Paz did use shortwave many, many years ago, 4815 if I recall correctly. I logged them once, back around the early 1970s, I believe. I visited the station when I was in La Paz in 1985. I remember it being a very run-down place and that the facilities were filled with boxes and piles of papers everywhere to the extent that it was difficult to move around. I waited over an hour to talk to the manager, but he never got off the phone, so I never got my QSL. This was easily the least-professional station I ever visited in a LAm capital city. BTW, Bolivia's government-owned station is Radio Illimani, named after the huge mountain that overlooks La Paz.

COSTA RICA Due to continuing jamming on 7385, which I have heard as late as 0900, RFPI has decided to change 7585 from 2 kW SSB to 10 kW AM at 0000-1200, meaning that 15050 will no longer be heard after 2400. However, 7585 was missing on UT Sept 25. A new frequency is being sought for the SSB unit (Hauser) 7585, RFPI, Sep 23, 0242, Was in AM mode, not usual USB. Don't know if this is a permanent change or not. Stronger on parallel 7385 AM but 7385 has bubble jamming behind it. Woman talking about global warming.

When i listened at 1515 to RRI Pekanbaru nothing from this georgian there, but when I checked at 1521, Georgia was on the air with female speaker in Georgian with very bad. At recheck at 1530 still on air with female in Georgian and when I also made a re-check at 1550 the station had gone. 1727 Back on the air in Georgian, bad modulation as at 1521. No news at 1800 but continuing with female speaker in Georgian. 35332 (Rooy) 5041, Georgian R., Sep 21, 2105, Presumed this with various kinds of pop numbers interspersed with comments in language that sounded as much Georgian as anything else. At 2117, into animated commentary followed by interview with giggling female. At 2129, slow song by male chorus and brief announcement that began with "Radio," then left the air. S/off time fits TBL listing for Tbilisi. Fair/good, though somewhat choppy. Not heard since, so might have been a special occasion.

The old frequency, 3249.7, was last reported by Chuck Bolland at the beginning of March. Their signal is very strong, but is also very distorted. Not heard last weekend, but otherwise heard mornings and evenings. The station continues to have religious programming, but I have heard it signing on at 1115, instead of the listed 1230.

or Surabaya and
3996, RRI Pontianak (T), Sept 21, 1925-2000, Indonesian. Local pop music with song. Male with announcements in which Indonesia mentioned several times. Any chance of an ID lost with the sign on of DW at 2000. Am very much in doubts as to whether it was Ponianak or or perhaps Kendari from 3995. 3976 was checked for a possible // but that there was no signal. Checked what references I have available and time-wise decided from the TBS listings that it was probably Ponianak. This was a very tongue in cheek, tentative log hoping for some reaction! 22222 (Clemitson) 4003.30, RRI Padang, Sep 25, 1556, Western popmusic with Indonesian female songs.

KENYA 4885, KBC, Sep 28, 1700, E news, 1712 local pop song. Not noted on 4935 today (Krone) KIRIBATI For a long time I have wondered about the actual destination of the 9825 kHz USB feeder (9810 now, ed). The Phoenix Islands of Central Kiribati are hardly inhabited, but the Line Islands of Eastern Kiribati (i.e. Christmas, Fanning and Washington) have a population of about 5000. I guess the feeder might be picked up there for rebroadcast by a local station on Christmas Island, not yet listed in WRTH. Maybe some internet-fans could find out? Get cracking, fellahs, but dont get confused with Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean! (van Delft) KUWAIT 15110, R. Kuwait; Kabd, Sept 26, 1400-1505, Arabic.

Male speaker in Arabic voicing over fast-paced Arabic music. 2015 chimes, pips, ID, news theme and main news bulletin. 2035 Further ID, followed by a talk. Then a woman with a sexy voice appeared. A pity I couldn't understand a word she was saying :-( She certainly seemed to put some life into the male announcer ... they got so carried away they even played some musical "jingles". I guess this is what happens on a typical Saturday night in downtown Tripoli. Signal had carrier hum and some FM and drift, with distorted modulation. Apart from that it was perfect :-) Thought this might be a clandestine at first, till I found parallel 15435 booming in so strong I could have heard it on my toaster. Listed parallels are 15235 and 15415, neither of which was audible. This was probably the tx that should have been on 15235. Haven't heard Libya this far off frequency before. SIO 433 (Sennitt) 15435, Radio Jamahiriya (pres), Sep. 24, 1225, talks in Arabic and music, powerhouse carrier with typical tinny audio on very low modulation depht; 15235 and 15415 not on the air (Ludwig) but cf above item, ed.

As Ed Rausch advised me, they were back testing UT Sept 24, but I could barely pull an ID at 0145 from a signal weaker than usual against Radio Buenas Nuevas below and a much stronger carrier on 4804.7 or so; later checks indicated XERTA did not stay on all night this time; 4800.7 had a fine signal the next night at 0900 check in the clear, but no modulation!

SOLOMON ISLANDS The chief engineer of the SIBC, Cornelius Rathamana, has expressed concern over the future operation of the national radio, due to its old equipment. Mr Rathamana says it has become very difficult to get spare parts for the more than 20-year-old transmitters, which he says are out of date. He says if the current transmitters are not replaced soon with local or outside assistance, the obsolete transmitters and other broadcast equipment could become unserviceable at any time. - The SIBC's general manager, James Kilua, says new mediumwave and shortwave transmitters and equipment is beyond the organization's financial capability. Concerns are being expressed by the officials as the SIBC celebrates 45 years of broadcasting in Solomon Islands.

NIGERIA Following Ivan Grishin's tip last week, I taped and monitored carefully 5910 via Germany Sunday Sept 21 at 0100. Immediately following Radio Vilnius with no transmitter break and no detectable change in strength, Radio New Nigeria opened in English, subtitled Voice of the Nigerian Advocacy Group for Democracy and Human Rights. Then a 5-minute talk by a woman speaking what sounded like a Black American rather than Nigerian accent; some music; then "brief commentaries" introduced as in Efik at 0013, Yoruba at 0118. At 0124 wrapup in English, said cassettes and other promotional items could be ordered from P.O. Box 202, Boston, MA 02131, or E-mail nagdhr@aol.com. Gave a different E-mail address which I could not copy correctly for commentary on their programs; closed with "another Mo-Jo [?] production" (cf below, ed) and off at 0129* sharp. I have asked them for more info, such as whether they have other transmissions actually aimed at Nigeria. Later found E-mail response from Maureen Gold. She says this started June 12, 1997!

This event expands the field of freedom of the press and enriches the patrimony of our local culture," said Roberto Guareschi, editor in chief of `Clarin'. Tomorrow's debate, the first "Joint Argentine-British conference on freedom of information on the internet" , begins at 1800 gmt. On the panel in London will be Ricardo Kirshbaum, deputy editor of `Clarin', and `Financial Times' journalist Jimmy Burns, a former correspondent in Argentina and author of a book on Maradonna. In Buenos Aires will be award-winning journalist and host of a morning radio news programme, Nelson Castro; leading radio and television journalist Magdalena Ruiz Guinazu, who was a member of Conadep, the commission on "disappeared persons", set up after the fall of the military dictatorship; Roberto Guareschi, editor in chief of `Clarin', and Andrew Graham Yool, director of the `Buenos Aires Herald'. Net surfers around the world are invited to take part in the debate. Questions for the panel can be sent to `Clarin's home page and selected ones will be fed into the debate while it is being broadcast. Highlights of the debate are to be broadcast in "Enfoque" on Friday 26th September at 1215, repeated at 1715 and 2015 gmt and 0015 and 0315 on Saturday.

HTV [Croatian Television] has been available on the Internet for a while now, and one can watch their programmes as well as listen to their radio station's first programme and Radio Rijeka. Belgrade's B92, whose survival was enabled by the Internet, is legendary. Although it has been possible to listen to Radio Ognjisce on the Internet, it cannot be found among the audio and video sites on the Internet. Radio Ognjisce says the reason is that their broadcasting is experimental. If they find a sponsor by the end of the month, they will start broadcasting on a regular basis. They have had good experiences broadcasting on the Internet, and Slovenes in some parts of the United States, where local telephone calls are practically free, listen to them regularly and maintain contact. The first Slovene medium present on the net was supposedly Radio Gama MM. The equipment required for broadcasting over the Internet is not free, and that is why internet broadcasting is not worth it for (our) commercial media. However, the quality of the sound - providing that the telephone connection is, on average, good - is better than with the use of mediumwave transmitters, which until recently were our only access to the airwaves. The software and the computer equipment supposedly cost RTV Slovenia around 25,000 dollars. This encouraging technological step was almost fully co-financed by the Republic of Slovenia Government Information Department, which is also responsible for informing Slovenes abroad.

Other loggings, articles of a non-outdating character, QSL-information etc. should be sent to ShortWaveNews as usual. The editor is free to "cut hard" and bring only the hottest items he receives. These following rules apply: The DX-Window will be sent via e-mail to those members of the Danish
Shortwave Club International (DSWCI) who contribute regularly. If you find
that you have been put "off the list" and miss the DX-Window, just send
us your hottest contributions. Or find the "DX Window" a few days later
on World Wide Web in the DSWCI section of the "Nordic Shortwave Center"
on
You will also find back issues on the web. All this is offered free of charge to any DX-er, but we expect that regular visitors to our WWW-page do so in the spirit of Shareware and join the DSWCI. You will then as a member receive our monthly bulletin SHORTWAVE NEWS which also contains a lot of other information of value for the active DX-er. END OF DX-WINDOW |
