QSL, kommentarer, mm.

Jan Görlin Norrköping, Skickar med några bilder på post som anlänt senaste tiden, bland annat QSL-kort från PBS i Lhasa, ser ut som QSL från förr. Visar även hur en rapport som kommer i retur efter 4 månader på grund av att adressen var felaktig (använde WRTH). Tillgången på stämplar är det ingen brist på.

I övrigt har det inkommit ett antal QSL från Parka vistelsen. Radio Aparecida 5035 med ett QSL-kort, likaså Radio Itatiaia 5970 med kort och flera dekaler. Dessutom Radio 9 de Julho 9820 med ett långt brev om dess historia. Som sagt PBS Lhasa 4820 med QSL-kort, Voice of Vietnam 7280 , Radio New Zeeland 9765 med både kort, brev och dekaler. I övrigt har det inkommit svar från ett antal spanska och brittiska mellanvågsstationer i övrigt var ju TA-kondsen bedrövliga så det blev knappt några rapporter. Utöver detta kom ett e-mail på 1 dag för en rapport på Solomon Island 9545 som jag hörde i NDL:s QTH i Väsby.

En riktig mastodont-logg kan vi uppvisa denna gång. Mycket beroende på en stor logg från Portugal av pirater. En del menar att de inte hör hemma i en bulletin typ SWB. Men då natalet andra stationer försvinner med stor hastighet, så får man leta med ljus och lykta på annat att bevaka.

Loggen är numera en blandning av hörigheter från hela världen. Några använder flitigt de remotesystem som finns uppkopplade. Orsaken är den alltmer ökande "elektrosmogen" som plågar de flesta i tättbebyggda områden. Det är ju inte alla som har tillgång till stugor långt ute i ödemarken där störningsnivån är nästan ohörbar.

Förra helgen var vi en vända ute i Sandham. Alla rekommenderas ta båten ut och beskåda både gammal fin bebyggelse utan motorfordon och ett fantastiskt båtliv. Den som så önskar kan ju ta in på Seglarhotellet och njuta av spa och sedan god mat och nattklubb. God mat och dricka finns även på det trevliga värdshuset.

Keep on …. =============

Hans Östnell (HR i Vardø): Sänder över ett litet bidrag från lyssnandet ute i Komagvær förra helgen, samt några dagar i början av veckan. Var där ute den 22-24 augusti och monterade upp mina bägge deltaloopar, och det visade sig att de fungerade alldeles förträffligt! Det blev mest MV-lyssning, men det var kul att höra Radio Nord Revival och att få Radio Gramox i loggen. Radio Nord Revival gick förresten som "skvalradio" i husvagnen hela lördagen den 23 augusti, medan jag "småfixade" ditt och datt på och kring antennerna. Signalen på 6065 hördes fenomenalt bra här uppe i nord!

Vad gäller mellanvåg, så har höstsäsongen redan startat här uppe. Redan runt 17 UTC så hördes flera filippinska och thailändska stationer med riktigt goda styrkor, mängder med kineser förstås, men den stora ¨överraskningen var att 5AN ABC Adelaide på 891 kHz loggades redan den 25 augusti kl 1825! "ABC-fanfar" och ABC-News kunde sedan avnjutas 18:30, innan stationen dök ner i bruset. Vet inte hur vanligt, eller ovanligt, det är att det loggas "aussies" här uppe så tidigt, men om inte annat så är det ett bevis på att mina loopar funkar som de skall, samt att Komagvær är ett mycket "tyst" QTH med bra takeoff mot Asien och Pacific. Det lovar gott!

Det har kommit in en del QSL, men det får vi ta nästa gång. Har fortfarande några IQ-inspelningar att granska innan det är dags att författa ett bidrag till kommande MV-Eko. Christer Brunström: skickar över ett antal tips från en lyssnarkväll. Lars Skoglund: Rádio Por Um Mundo Melhor, Governador Valadares 4805 svarade med brev och vykort. Svaret kom efter en follow-up på en gammal rapport. Veriesigner var Diretora Beatris Coelho Braga da Silva.

2485 1100 VL8K, Northern Territories Service, C. VL8K was louder this morning than I had ever heard them before, holding at a steady S9 on the Perseus and the Palstar. VL8T was solid, but not as loud on 2325. (Tim Rahto via DXLD)

certain was not Vintage FM, as Craig is not currently broadcasting there. Heard about once every two weeks or so. Was a real mystery to me, as I had a positive carrier there. Today (August 16), at 1216 UT, I think I may have found the answer. Heard 3210-USB, with two men chatting in Korean. Now that I have finally heard some audio on 3210, I feel better, as I was having a hard time understanding what was going on with the carrier there that was not from Vintage FM. Thanks for the assistance of Sei-ichi Hasegawa (Japan), who listened to an audio file I sent him and he was able to identify the language for me, as I had thought it might be in Japanese, but not so. Sei-ichi comments - "Probably it is thought that it is the fishery radio of the Korean fishing boat." Greatly appreciate his help in solving this mystery for me. These signals could be rather misleading regarding whether or not Vintage FM is actually on the air. ------------------------- Sent the following dxldyg item to Craig Allen, the owner and operator of the 3210 kHz. transmitter that in the past had relayed Vintage FM. His response August 17: "Hi

Ron - I haven't been on for a couple of months. Thanks for the info. Regards, Craig"

(Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA, USA) 3210 Aug23 1225 3210 Vintage FM with a decent signal on 8/23 via the Perseus site in Edmonton AB -

tuned from 1225 with an ID "Vintage FM" by woman at 1226 and lot's of oldie rock music - both woman and man ancrs. "Rock and Roll...on Vintage FM" by man at 1253. SINPO 2+/35343 - the best I have hrd them from any site. Thanks to Ron for the heads up on this re-activation! Edmonton was out of the gray zone around 1230 but the signal hung in there well past 1255 (at which time I returned to bed, Hi!). (Bruce Churchill via DXPlorer)

3210 Aug26 -1322* Vintage FM, 1313-1322*, Aug 26. Today was the first day since I last heard them on their first day of reactivation, on Aug 19, that I could hear some audio; 1940s(?) songs and ballads till off; just above threshold level. Takes really good conditions for any reception! (Ron Howard, San Francisco at Ocean Beach, CA, USA)

3260 Aug25 1157 At wakeup 1157, carriers with some audio from NBC stations only on these requencies; too much storm noise from Kansas. At 1201, 3260 is in talk, 3385 in music; at 1213, 3385 still audible, 3260 not and presumed off. Today`s sunrise: 1157 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DXLD)

3275 Aug18 1218 NBC Southern Highlands. Last heard in the summer of 2012. Found reactivated August 18, from 1218 to off close to 1318; Tok Pisin/Pigin monologue 1218-1233; EZL Pacific Island music 1233-1255; another monologue; poor, with very slow improvement. Great to have this back again! Format today consistent with that heard in 2012, in that is there was no NBC news at 1301 (Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA, E1 & CR-1, dxldyg via DXLD)

3275 NBC Southern Highlands (presumed). Continues to be heard, but their sign off is much earlier now; Aug 26 with 1145* and Aug 27 with 1147*; often just above threshold level; the weakest of all the NBC stations; 3385 being the best and then comes 3260.

4755,56 Aug23 1155 PMA - The Cross Radio. DTMF tones, but did not leave the air as expected; time check and ID followed by religious songs; off at 1159 with no tones at all, so must have been

done manually. This would tend to explain the various sign off times recently (DTMF not working correctly); above average reception. Aug 22 off at 1200 with no DTMF tones (Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA, E1 & CR-1, dxldyg via DXLD)

4755,56 Aug27 1151 PMA - The Cross Radio on Aug 27 continues with their malfunctioning DTMF tones; 1151-1252; at 1155 heard what sounded like DTMF tones followed by ID and local time check; mostly religious songs, but also many one minute religious spots; 1208 & 1249 James Dobson with spots for "Focus on the Family".

So, this

tip is only right for Sept to Febr season here in Ce and No EUR receiving post. TN 6050 Fortunately for me I have almost no Xizang PBS reception on 6050, so I normally have

very decent reception of Asyik FM, per attached audio of their "Asyik FM" song. Also I have almost no Xizang PBS reception on 6130, so sometimes I can dig out some Lao National Radio reception.

I can detect a JBA carrier slightly on the low side of 15476, so I keep on it and time its cutoff today at 2139:43*, which I expect to match anyone else`s report. Of course, modulation may have stopped a bit earlier, but I couldn`t hear any. Nevertheless, I am confident this was LRA36, another just-barely catch based on precise frequencing and timing.

(wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 19 & 30) 14-15 August 2014 Micro-DXpedition, Dave Valko

Went out for the sole purpose of logging all the ZYs. I was disappointed some weren't on (or not observed); Gaucha, 9 de Julho, 9515 Marumby, and Brasil Central has been off for a while. But other things turned out to make it a memorable micro-DXpedition; Panaji, Patria Nueva, Eco. A nice evening for an early season micro-DXpedition. Not hot or humid. Conditions were a bit noisy on the Tropical bands but not too bad for Summer.

RX: Perseus SDR, ANT: 315' Beverage (BOG) at 165°, QTH: Pennsylvania State Games Lands #26, Duration: 2300-0130 UTC, Solar Indices: Solar Flux = 113 A Index = 5 K Index = 1, WX: Sunny (until the Sun set), northwest breeze, temp in the low 60's dropping to the upper 50's 3310 Aug15 0102 R. Mosoj Chaski 0102:50 end of long tlk and nice canned ID w/freq and QTH. 4409,773 Aug15 0008 R. Eco 0004 pleasant rom. song, 0008:45 church bells made the song sound like a

wedding song. 0010:10 surprised to hear canned call, ID, and freq by M. Another anmnt w/ment of el servicio, then mx briefly, and live studio M anncr from 1011 w/what could have been PSAs (nice quick peak at 0015:40). Still going at 0018. Went off sometime around 0100.

5580,297 Aug15 0019 R. San Jose Deadair but then mx singing started as soon as I started the recording at 0019 (ment of corazon in the song). Then apparent Padre w/ment of palabra but very low level. Guess it was the daily Mass. More of the same. Long period of deadair, but could just detect very faint background rustling noise at times. When the signal peaked between static crashes, it was almost stunning. Went off sometime between 0044 and 0055.

5952,46 Aug14 2341 R. Pio Doce 2341 alternating SP tlk by M and W pgm hosts, M shouting at times. Ments of Bolivia, camposina, inform. Into live mx at 2348 for a min. and a half then the 2 anncrs returned all past the ToH. Severe slop QRM from 5950 WRMI. Totally inaudible when WRMI was playing mx.

6024,97 Aug14 2341 Red Patria Nueva 2341 Incredible signal w/ment of "Bo-Lee-Vee-ah" during promo during break in the nx pgm that may be called "Bolivia Informa". Journalist ?? Sanchez mentioned Patria Nueva at end of his report at 2343. 2347:30 break w/nice nx promo, jingle ad, then bank ad, 2349:55 ment of Patria Nueva in anmnt, 2350:40 short ID promo, same nx promo that started the break, then back to nx. Near 100% copy!! As easy as falling off a log!! That is until it was blasted out by 6020 and 6030 at the ToH.

6080,03 Aug14 2341 R. Marumby Fairly good at 2341 t/in w/tlk by M in PT. Soft song and more tlk. 2359 full canned ID by deep-voiced M over instru. mx, then canned ID/promo. 0000 usual "Marumby" signing jingle by womens chorus. Best early on.

6089,965 Aug14 2334 R. Bandeirantes Not often heard because of Anguilla. Good signal w/Futbol coverage starting at 2334 including a long goal at 2343. Ment of Brasil, Sao Paulo, Londrina. Going past ToH. //9645.41.

9705 Aug14 2315 AIR Panaji 2315:50 EG ID by W after the nx then sked for President Mukherjee's speech on Independence Day, and into "Patriotic Songs". Another ID at 2328:50. Brief searing sitar mx, W w/intro for the presidents speech on Independence Day, instru. NA, and then the EG speech by his excellency. Great S9+10 signal. Probably the best ever heard Panaji. // much much weaker nearby 9690 AIR Bengaluru.

11854,98 Aug14 2302 R. Aparecida 2302 end of long list of Aparecida stns and Aparecida theme song by W, mx, then tlk by live men w/IDs and website. Excellent signal. (14 August)

11905 Aug15 0113 SLBC Outstanding signal. Came on around 0113, and audio suddenly popped on w/mx, one short and one long tick, W w/nice ID, and into regional mx. Another ID by W at 0128:50, and back to mx. Almost S9+10. Just amazing.

15745 Aug15 0111 UNID. Saw a signal here at 0122, turned the AGC off to increase the signal strength and did hear M anncr w/sports in EG at times of brief peaks. I doubt it was SLBC. Probably a spur.

(73 Christoph Ratzer via A-DX) BRAZIL: And now let's talk about the absences noted here. R Inconfidencia, Belo Horizonte (MG), is not on air on 6010 kHz. That's a shame, because the mining station has an excellent program in late afternoon, called The Hour Farmer, who has several relevant information to the farmer, besides the good roots music. Another noticeable absence is the frequency of 11925 kHz, Radio Bandeirantes, São Paulo, SP. The station, however, has been monitored here in 6090 and 9645 kHz. (http://www.romais.jor.br/blog/ MYANMAR: today Aug 29 around 1425 UT heard three channels of Myanmar Radio. 5985.247 kHz measured, heard male voice program, but different program on 5915.0 kHz, and very same program content on 7200.000 kHz at 1420-1445 UT, latter signal strength S=9 or -73dBm on remote SDR unit at Brisbane Queensland Australia. 73 wolfy (wb, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 29) SRI LANKA: SLBC Sri Lanka noted sign off yesterday Sunday at 0330 on 11905 after Christian program in English.

Radio Nord är efter mer än ett halvsekel en rumsren företeelse, liksom gamla pirater som Radio Syd, Radio Caroline m.fl. Det jag tänkte ta upp var synen på de små hobbypirater som finns på banden. De är många, vännen CON säger sig ha omkring 300 QSL från dem. Själv har jag hittills i augusti fått 14 QSL från pirater, vilket förvånar mig mycket med tanke på hur kärvt det var att få svar i våras. SDXF har ju accepterat piraterna, det finns en Piratspalt och QSL från pirater räknas i QSL-cupen. ARC har iakttagit en mer
