It really seems that Radio Georgia, Dusheti has been re-activated. Heard English
0730 UTC on 11805 kHz. Very poor reception with lots of QRM. Audio distorted,
hard to copy.(Jouko Huuskonen - Hard-Core-DX 26, 23)

Re-activated? - Radio Georgia never went off.
Heard regularly in Germany in past years. But the signal level was always
very low, mostly under threshold. 73 wb(Wolfgang Bueschel - Hard-Core-DX 26,

11805.00 Today noted surprisingly Dusheti  e v e n  frequ for the first time

Minimum distorted, but tolerable. Maybe the technicians at Dusheti oberhouled
the equipment recently. (wb, wwdxc BC-DX Feb 22)

О-ва Петра Первого
Anticipated Peter I Island DXpedition postponed 
until 2006 (Feb 17, 2005) --- The anticipated Peter I Island 
(Antarctica) 3Y0X DXpedition has been called off at the eleventh 
hour. The DXpedition team announced February 17 that its charter 
vessel, the Cavendish Sea, has been delayed until February 20 instead 
of the hoped-for February 18. With a projected February 21 departure, 
the DXpedition ran out of time. "This latest delay, on top of 
numerous previous delays, simply makes it impossible for us to spend 
a sufficient amount of time on Peter I to justify the DXpedition this 
year," said the announcement from Bob Allphin, K4UEE, and Ralph 
Fedor, K0IR. "So, we have no choice but to postpone the DXpedition 
until 2006." The DXpeditions first vessel and helicopter backed out 
at the last minute, forcing the team to quickly regroup with a new 
vessel and helicopter earlier this week. All 20 3Y0X team members had 
assembled earlier this month in Ushuaia, Argentina.--The Daily DX

С 3 марта (а это будет четверг следующей недели) станция в очередной раз сменит
своё
название и будет называться Всемирное Радио Кореи KBS World Radio. Так что, надо

полагать, соответственные изменения произойдут и в атрибутике станции, включая
и
QSL-карточки! ;-))

Так же с этого же числа KBS World откроет и вещание на новом для себя (11-м по
счёту)
языке - вьетнамском. Передачи по 30 минут будут выходить на 9640 в 2200-2230
по
сеульскому времени (по UTC это, кажется, 1300-1330).

Под настоящим названием Radio Korea International станция работает с 1994 года.

1440 WTHM Red Lion, PA remains silent (ex relg).  Owner Tom Moffett sold 
it to Susquehanna Broadcasting, based in York.  They didn't want the 1kw 
daytimer, they wanted the land and paid $280,000 for it so they could 
raise a shiny new 700' stick for the FM WSOX 96.1.  It will likely 
remain silent for sometime.  The xmtr is a 1950 Gates BC1F, the backup 
is a homebrew Fred Wise special, and much of the studio gear (boards, 
etc) is homemade as well, and Susquehanna has no idea what to do with 
it.  Possibility---diplexing it into WSBA's 4 tower array north of York 
w/5kw DA.  We shall see.(Bruce - Hard-Core-DX 26, 20)
