CELP используется в данном тесте для кодирования и передачи речевых сигналов,
надо сказать, что 10.3 kbps+SBR заметно отличается на слух от "no CRC 8.3 kbps",
8.3 kbps субъективно гораздо хуже звучит и заметно отсутствие высоких частот
в спектре. Использование CELP позволяет одновременно передавать два звуковых
канала для поочередного прослушивания на одной частоте.

RCI on 13655 and 17800 but missing from 9515 at 1436 Oct 24, but at
1437 encountered it on 9755 instead, which is supposed to be the evening
frequency. This continued until 1459* Earlier, shortly after 1400 I noticed the
CRI relay was missing from 15220, not on pre-1400 15260 either, but 15220 had
come on by recheck at 1437. One wonders how this can keep happening at
Sackville. Don`t they have an explicit schedule showing which frequency, which
transmitter, which antenna, which program feed line, to run at which times? Is
all this dependent on a human doing the proper switching every hour or half
hour? Fortunately, 9755 was not interfering with anything detectable (Glenn
Hauser, OK - hard-core-dx 34, 25)

Китай
7305, Central People's Broadcasting Station, 1050-1105+  Noted a man
in Chinese comments.  At 1058, a carrier tunes up for a couple of seconds
blocking China.  At 1059, time tics before the hour and then music.  A FAX
signal on top of China on the hour blocking everything.  China's signal was
fair until the hour, then almost impossible to
hear.  (Chuck Bolland, Clewiston, Florida, October 23, 2005 - hard-core-dx 34,

6139.78 R. Lider 1054-1120+. Nice HJ mx; M ancr at 1057,
followed by NA at 1058 and canned ID at 1100, announcing 730 and 6140
freqs. This ID is a nice throwback to the old days with the vibraphone
and the freqs given in kilociclos. News followed after the address was
given, and the usual mention of a "fabuloso premio" for letting them know
when and from where you heard them. VG signal, and still good at 1120

RHC, 11760 and 9550, final morning newscast at 1453 Oct 24 said they
would have a special ``Mesa Redonda Informativa`` at 6:30 pm local (2230 UT)
on
11875 and 6000 about hurricanes Wilma and Alpha. Then the so-called ``news``
spent about 3 minutes quoting what Pres. Ch?vez had said the day before
condemning capitalism. Closing transmission at 1456 saying the evening
broadcast would start at 7 pm (2300 UT) on 15230, 11705, 11760, 9550 and 6000.
Are they really on 11705 then? Or ever? I think this is a very old tape or
script they have not bothered to update for a few years. 11705 does not appear
for Cuba at any hour whatsoever in EiBi, NDXC or HFCC A-05. Before 1500, 11805
and 12000 were also on, and before 1400 also audible on 6000, so apparently RHC
facilities survived Wilma OK (Glenn Hauser, Оклахома - hard-core-dx 34, 25)

5025, R. Rebelde, was off from 0915, but returned suddenly at 1051:17 
in mid-pgm w/tlk by M.  ID at 1100.  Strength was just as strong as usual 
possibly indicating that the transmitter was already warmed up.  (24 Oct.)

PIRATE (Euro) 6310.2 Radio Scotland International 2305-2320* At tune-in, sounded
like rock music.  But later, I recognized "Electricity" by OMD.  ID and phonetic
spelling by the operator at 2312 and 2317.  The low voice modulation, with high
noise levels meant I couldn't copy much, other than I think he gave a phonetic
spelling of the Beilen maildrop address.  Thanks to Dr. Tim for help IDing this
one.  Later also received an e-mail from the RSI operator confirming it was him.

Holy Qur`an, with pauses almost as long as the verses. Dead

11740 Philippines, 7235 Marianas, and also on 7215 Marianas, which I did not
notice. But per HFCC A-05, 11740 is Tinang at 21 degrees, 7235 is Tinang at 325
degrees, which does not make sense for Korea, and must have changed in the
meantime. The more up-to-date NDXC schedule shows 7235 as Tinian at 321 degrees

Last night I heard a relay of China Radio International in English on 1540

it at this time? According to CRI's website they are carried on WNWR 
Philadelphia on 1540 at "1000-1100 local time" and the WNWR website isn't 
much help either. Can ayone confirm if they carry CRI at this time ?

Last night conditions here in Brooklyn were really bad - I think there
were electrical storms out there, I actually heard some thunder here
late in the evening and the local blasters also seemed to be  splashing
everywhere for some reason. I checked 1140 a few times during the
evening to see if I could snag WRVA and it was very rough going.
Finally around 2 AM I managed to get something that was sometimes
audible between the splashes from WBBR on 1130 and I heard '1140 Fox
News Radio' - which is what WRVA call themselves. I was too tired to
sit on it any more and see if I could get the call letters, so it's not
in the log. (I am going to put this up in a report)

I am now updating my radio history essay on
northernstar.no/sre.htm
The new edition will appear on the web later this fall.
I am researching more in various fields, including what happened to the 
Radio England and Britain Radio transmitters.
It seems the Continental 317-C 50 kW Serial 10(Radio England) ended up 
at Cidade's predecessor Swazi Music Radio and was taken in use there on 
1376/1377 Khz. Does anyone know when?
It seems that the transmitter is still in use by Radio Cidade??
I would like a current picture of it and if possible the transmitter 
site including authorization to use the pics.
Finally, Does anyone know who is now owning the station, and what is 
the mailing address?(Svenn Martinsen, Norway)

Before 6 PM EST with the new time set, had WDFN on 1130 ! It's my first logging
of anything other than WBBR on this channel (also had something way under that
sounded SS in Auroral condx wich was perphaps YVRL). HJAJ-760 with "RCN, La Radio
de Colombia" ID at 0128 UTC and news in a difficult WJR null. Cuba is on 670
and seemed way over WOR in // with 670.

Some woman talk beetwen the 580 and 590 kHz domestics, but too poor to really
understand, not heard in the last couple of minutes. Growl just above 600 (closer
to 600 than 610, so not 605 but maybe 603 !) and right over 610 especially on
the high-side of the channel, I think these are Trans-Atlantic hets, but can't
really proove it.

I'd like to congratulate Steve Whitt for picking up Hawai in the UK. What channel
was it, Steve ? As my health improove, I will be able to send out a full report
containing what I heard earlier this ending month and more listening; there are
plenty of interesting targets.(Bogdan Chiochiu, Montreal, Quebec, Canada - hard-core-dx

Техника приёма
Прием японцев на СВ продолжается.
22.10.05 в 16.55 на свой ДХ-забор были слышны японцы на 1242 очень
хорошо, почти без помех (у С-В и Ю-З углов забора; у С-З и Ю-В углов
слышны французы). Других станций на этой частоте не было.

23.10.05 18.50 1242 кГц громко слышны японцы, но программа странная:
меланхолическая музыка, периодически прерываемая сигналом 1 кГц (на
10-15 сек), периодически объявлялось женским голосом "JORF (японцы
вместо Л выговаривают что-то похожее на Р), Nippon Hoso..."
Повторилось несколько раз, как при технических неурядицах. Вместо
кукушки точного времени прозвучали сигналы, похожие на телеграфные
RTTY трели. Затем мужчина в нормальном темпе начал передачу, с "Роком
вокруг часов" Билла Хэйли и т.д. Начался колоквиум между двумя
мужичками.

На других заборах выделить японцев не удается, в лучшем случае в виде
слабой помехи французам. Дома на "веревку" (наклонена снизу вверх с
подъемом на запад) также никаких перспектив -
или шум/гул, или французы, иногда югославы, арабы. Я уже выжал из
аппаратуры все что можно.
Правда, иногда на улице при хорошем сигнале японцы бывают слабо слышны
на портативник при соответствующей ориентации приемника на С-В даже без
забора.

Еще интересное наблюдение: в воскр. 16.40 на 4800 мощно слышна музыка
Чайковского в известном уже репертуаре. Похоже, что тестируется еще
один передатчик (или частота) китайского радио перед новым сезоном.
