ДРМ
Недавно появились новые версии всех основных программ для приема и обработки
DRM - Dream 1.5cvs, DRMcalc5.1, DRM Discoverer 2.2. Версия Dream 1.5 позволяет
детектировать AMSS сигнал, который передается одновременно с АМ - сигналом радиовещания
и передает в цифровом виде название радиостанции и техническую информацию с битрейтом
47bps. Радиолюбители уже начали называть этот вид сигнала - RDS для АМ. На сайте
http://www.travelradio.lv публикую результаты приема AMSS сигнала на частотах
всемирной службы ВВС -
648 и 9410 кГц. Пока что, AMSS модуляторы установлены только на этих двух передатчиках
и на частоте 234 кГц - RTL, Beidweiler, Люксембург. Последнюю частоту мне принять
не удалось не в последнюю очередь из-за высокого уровня местных помех. 

4 декабря принимал Голос России на частоте 12060 кГц с 10.48 до 13 часов и Радио
Швеция из Sackville для Европы на новой для меня частоте 17880 кГц с 15 до 16
часов. Прием Голоса России на этой частоте по-прежнему нестабильный и заметно
ухудшается в течение последнего часа вещания. На 17780 в начале передачи наблюдал
стандартное название из Sackville - DRM from CBC, скриншота пока нет, прохождение
у нас сегодня плохое, аудио не декодировалось совсем. (Владимир Казгунов, Лиепая,

Free North Korea Radio (from South Korea) started transmissions on 5880, 
scheduled 1500-1600, acc. to a well-informed source via Irkutsk-RUS. 
Website: http://www.freenk.net . More details at 
http://medianetwork.blogspot.com : "North Korean defectors' "Free NK Radio" 
broadcasts to North Korea". (Бернд Трутенау, Литва - dxldyg 643)

5890  "Shiokaze" Broadcast via Irkutsk (?)  Dec.4.05  1430-1459   
Noted with Piano Melody at s/on, opening talks in Japanese, followed 
with a program of talks. Did note @ 1440 hours , a partial list of 
names, such as Koyoto, Matsiyama . Signal gradually improved  from a 
fair to fair plus level, by the sign-off. At sign-off noted the Piano 
Melody as sign-off melody ( which was also played during the entire 
program in a very low keyed audio)  The Piano music went off the air at 
1459 then 20 seconds later another program came on, this time a Interval 
Signal similar to 'What a friend we have in Jesus',(played once)  into 
very short orchestra melody, followed  opening announcements but cut in 
mid -sentence ( carrier gone) at 15oo::20  Seems rather strange that 
another station came on....any one else notice this.....

5880 Free North Korea Radio via Irkutsk . Dec.9. 1532 -1600* Noted on 
this date with a marginal signal @ 1510 hrs., gradually the signal 
improved that by 1530 was quite audible with a fair signal. Noted with 
brief orchestra melody, then followed long interviews and speeches with 
the occasional musical break. Most of the talk was by female announcer, 
(in Korean) with guest speakers in the interviews. I did note that at 
1552 there was reference to the Seoul Summit, with speech to a audience 
afterwards. At 1559:30 there was a musical selection, closing comments 
but actuall ID that I could make out, speech/talk was cut in 
mid-sentance at sign-off. Initially the signal was marginal at best, 
gradually improved, to a periods of fairly good copy. Best heard on a 
3.1 meter amplified loop.

4319U AFN 2301-2315. AFN program. Weak signal just
at/above noise level, but definitely there. Appeared to be running
parallel to NPR news and All Things Considered program from strong Key
West signals on 5446.5U, 7811U, 12133.5U. Can't remember this
transmitter paralleling Key West in the past, but 4319U now appears as
Diego Garcia on AFN web page (see Harold Frodge's report earlier this
evening). Also noted especially good propagation to AIR Panaji on 9705.

Венесуэла
For the third or fourth time this season, I was able to catch Radio Rumbos on
670 kHz. At 0340 UTC DEC 7, I noticed flutter on the Radio Rebelde pest and at
0341, heard two dorbells clearly through Rebelde, but the voice was almost inaudible.

Radio Rumbos was impossible to listen for real this season until now, but loggable.
What maked this station loggable were the dorbells. The dorbell sound interval
sound played between the news items really cut through the interferences like
a hot knife through butter, almost as easily as the Radio Reloj's morse code
"R R". If you are familiar with Radio Reloj and want to have a similar DX challenge,
you may want to try for Radio Rumbos in Caracas, DF, Venezuela.

It is sad though that they are only detectable as dorbells in QRM these days,
possibly because the Arroyo Arrenas's Cuban transmitter upped it's power. In
the 2000-2001 DX season, for exemple, they were fairly regular; not among the
strongest Latins, but somewhat close to them in regularity. Aside from the ever-famous
Noti Rumbos newscast, they played very great music on weekend nights (on Friday,
Saturday and Sunday evenings) and while I don't have the tapes of this anymore,
I still have some real-audio files
and you can hear a short clip on the LatinMWDX group site. I was also able in
March 2001 to pick up Rumbos on 570 kHz from Villa Cura in the Aragua state once
(they are a difficult catche in North America, extremely seldom reported), for
several seconds. 

Unfortunately they aren't on shortwave or the Internet anymore, so MW DXing is
the only way of nailing Rumbos down.

If you are into chassing Latin American MW signals, consider seriously joining
this great Yahoo ! Group. You will often receive instant alerts, have access
to lots of real-audio files of station IDs, songs intros, etc. and maybe other
things as well. It is absolutely free ! If you want to hear this and other interesting
ones, consider yourself almost obligated to join.

I have noted other Latin signals as well as very mediocre Spaniard audio on 585,
but this was by far the most interesting one. The strongest Venezuelan, on peak,
was YVNM-780 in Falc?n, not YVKS-750 like usually. But, Rumbos on 670 was by
far the most challenging and intriguing signal. The steadiest and strongest South
American, for slightly over 10 minutes, after 0030 UTC was RCN on 760 kHz.

The article on the purposes of DXing this Bolivarian land will be ready very
soon, especially after I have the confirmation I beated that damned cancer (the
scan wasn't completely ready even today). It will contain useful information
on most of the Venezuelans I heard and the ones I haven't heard yet, but I know
they are regular.

Received a QSL today from Radio Hargeisa in the Republic of Somaliland 
(NASWA Country: Somali, Dem. Rep. - British) for reception on 29 November 
2005 on 7530 kHz. V/s: Baldur Drobnica. Card states that they run 10 kw into

a T-antenna.

Report was sent to their German postal address with $1. Card was mailed from

USA with a cover letter and the $1 was returned via an amateur radio operator

in Virginia. Apparently $1 is not enough for return postage from Germany and

the v/s sent my card along with his amateur radio QSL and then the Virginia
op forwarded my QSL.
