6155, 2311-, Radio Fides Mar 14 Fair reception with Spanish talk. I sometimes hear this one better in Victoria.
(Walter Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

6165, 1044-, Radio Logos Mar 16 I spent some time searching for this one. At 0857 only a Chinese station could be heard. At this check, indeed there was some religious and possibly Spanish programming. At 10:53 there was a clear ID for 'Radio Trans-Mundial'. At that time, the language sounded more indigenous than Spanish. Perhaps someone with more information about this station could shed some more light about their scheduled programs. An open carrier came on at 10:57, but the presumed Radio Logos programming
could still be heard. (Walter Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

3375.1, 0237-, Radio Municipal Mar 15 I was looking for the Peruvian, but instead heard Portuguese talk at 0243 and otherwise mostly EZL music. At poor to fair level only. (Walter Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

4754.4, 0322-, Radio Educacao Rural Mar 15 Presumably them with Portuguese talk, with many mentions of Brasil. Off in mid-sentence at 0337 without an ID. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

3291.v Guyana “Voice of Guyana”, GBC , Sparendaam 0820 t/in with
Christian popular vocal, no dj in between songs. Following the eclectic
pattern of the VOG, into sub continental music from India. Crystal
clear signal with announcement for "15 minutes before five O'clock".
Into song "Guyana ..You've Been So Good to Me" then Smokey Robinson
"Don't Care about you Babe". "Wish you a good day back to work".
[Easter Friday through Monday holiday] "Lets get back to the music"
0915 mention of National Holiday "....in the National Park... for
developing your business to its' full potential..." Voice of Guyana ID
follows. KFC in Guyana is celebrating its 40th anniversary.
"Greetings to you Guyana, from KFC". 0920 switch again back to sub
continental music. 0928 "Have a nice day and say your prayers....You are
tuned to the Voice of Guyana". Quick mention of a auto shop which
repairs Japanese Vehicles. 0945 Christian minister with a rather
impassioned sermon. [Notes: used both the Icom R75 Kiwa and the 746Pro
in AM Wide for this log. Both provide good audio but the R 75 Kiwa AMS
seems unnecessary for tropical band dxing; but did hold the signal in
AMS using the wide filters. The 746Pro seems to have excellent audio
available in an Icom receiver.] 18 April

4830, 0112-, AIR Jammu, Kashmir Mar 16 Fair to good reception with Indian music and then a possible ID at 0120. Time pips at 0130 and into news in a local language. When rechecked at 0215 there appeared to be cochannel interference from what sounded like illegal hams. Interesting feeling lying under a mosquito netting in the Amazon jungle, listening to All India Radio!!!. (Walter Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

4840, 0131-, AIR Mumbai Mar 16 Good to excellent reception with an ID as '100.7 FM' at 00:35. They mentioned a 'Consumer hotline number' at 01:31. The best heard Indian that night. Much better than I can ever hear them in Victoria. (Walter Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

3335 R. East Sepik 1154-1240* Apr 13. Pop vocal mx to

Перу
3234.90, Radio Luz Y Sonido, 0956-1010 Noted
Huaynos music until the
hour. At 1001 canned ID "...Sonido ... onda
corta...". Too much noise on this
low freq to copy. This followed with live SP comments
and then ADs. Live
comments again until 1010 when I tuned away. Signal
was poor (Chuck Bolland, Clewiston, Florida, April 13, 2006 - CumbreDX 1492)

4835.46, Radio Maranon, 1042-1052 Noted music
until 1046 when canned ID presented as, "4835, onda
corta ... Radio Maranon..." by woman. A couple more
promos and back to Huaynos music. Signal peaked from
poor to good by 1050. (Chuck Bolland, Clewiston, Florida, April 13, 2006 - CumbreDX 1492)

6173.83 R. Tawantinsuyo 0246-0300*, Pleasant campesino mx w/M
anncr host. Signed off w/out fanfare at the end of a song at 0300, but
carrier seemed to remain on. Still no more audio by 0320, so obviously
0300 was s/off. (16 April)(Dave Valko - CumbreDX 1495)

5680.77 LV de Campesinos and 4620.43 R. Espacial continue to be heard in
the 0900-1030 time frame rock steady on their freqs. So hope to set the
timer/MD recorder and catch s/ons this week. (Dave Valko - CumbreDX 1495)

3234.9, 1206-, Radio Luz y Sonido Mar 14 Spanish religious programming at fair level. Tentative, as no ID heard. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 3329.6, 1215-, Radio Ondas del Huallaga Mar 14 Interesting to listen to this Spanish broadcast, with many mentions of Inca and 'sol'. A speech or sermon of sorts. Again a presumed logging as no ID heard, although I left the MP3 recorder going if possible, and these need to be studied. (Salmaniw, Napo River , Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4386.6, 0249-, Imperio Radio Mar 15 Very good reception with Spanish religious sermon which went on until 0259 and then was cut off. A time check followed, although I didn't hear any ID. They mentioned 'Santiago', and 'Iglesia', and 'manana'. Reception became even better when the local power shut off at 0300 (2200 local). Excellent full ID at 0312. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4386.6, 2342-, Imperio Radio Mar 13 Peruvians dominated the tropical bands in the Ecuadorian Amazon region. This logging is presumed, since I heard no ID. Fair to good reception. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4386.6, 1102-, Imperio Radio, La Voz de Salvacion Mar 16 Many ads with mentions of Lima. Good except for some deep fades. Nice ID for La Voz de Salvacion at 11:21. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4486, 0016-, Radio Frecuencia Mar 13 Good level except for buzzing audio, with Andean music. Much better using SSB. Modulation was low. The transmitter cut out at 0023, but came back shortly after. I left the MP3 recorder on, so I'll have to check the recording for any good ID. Checked at 0032 when the modulation was much better. They then went into announcements which was still going on at 0115. Similar style to what I've heard from the Solomon Is and PNG with the radio being the best way to reach
family members. (Salmaniw, Quito, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4746.8, 2358-, Radio Huanta 2000 Mar 12 Lovely full ID heard. As luck would have it, I didn't have my MP3 recorder hooked up to get the ID, but managed to snag a few later on. This station was heard at the Thermal Spa at Papallacta near Quito, but at higher elevation still....somewhere around 13000 feet ASL! Still there at 0117, but off when rechecked at 0220. (Salmaniw, Quito, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4775, 0250-, Radio Tarma Mar 14 Quite a good signal except for a buzzing utility QRM. Full ID at 0300 as 'Transmitte Radio Tarma, desde ?'. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4824.4, 2346-, La Voz de la Selva Mar 15 Good reception. An interesting station as much of the music was English, which is a rarity in the Andes region. I heard 'Don't you love me baby?' initially. Slight het from 4825, probably Brasil. They mentioned 'Rock n' Roll'. An ad at 2358 mentioned Iquitos, and then a Peruvian congress ad for a Norman ???. No obvious ID at the TOH, but as I was off to supper, I left the mp3 recorder running. The carrier cut suddenly at 0102, so presumably I'll find an
ID somewhere in there. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4835, 0130-, Radio Maranon Mar 16 A presumed logging with Spanish music at fair levels. I rechechecked at 02:47. Good reception at that time with many political ads. Did suffer from a buzzing utility. Still there at 0305, but shortly afterwards either gone, or overwhelmed by the ute.
(Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 4950, 0144-, Radio Madre de Dios Mar 16 Fair to good with Spanish programming, mostly over cochannel AIR. Brief announcement at 02:02 with an ID, I beleive, and then off. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5014.6, 0317-, Radio Altura Mar 14 Good to very good reception except for a very weak het with modern Spanish music. Nice ID at 0327 and again at 0330 as 'Radio Altura, musica'. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5015, 1014-, unid Mar 16 Two Peruvians are listed here, Radio Juliaca on 5014.5 and Radio Altura on 5014.6. Fair level with Andean music. Not sure which of the two. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5460.3, 2340-, Radio Emisora Bolivar Mar 14 Presumed reception. Fair to good with Latin music, but quite a bit of static crashes and low modulation making reception more difficult than it should have been. Time check at 2353 and then the ID: 'Este es, Radio Bolivar'. So not a presumed logging after all!. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5470.8, 1115-, Radio San Nicolas Mar 16 Looking for the sign-on. Nothing at 11:15, but instead signed on at 11:30, but unfortunately spoiled by the choppy ute station adjacent. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5470.8, 1120-, Radio San Nicolas Mar 15 Good reception except for a choppy utility station immediately adjacent ruining reception. A presumed logging. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 5486.7, 1705-, La Reyna de la Selva Mar 14 A presumed logging at 1:05pm local with fair to good reception. The frequency is approximate and presumed as the Kaito 1103 only has 1 kHz resolution, although with SSB one has an idea of approximately where above or below the the kHz reading the station is transmitting. Spanish talk, with mentions of 'Policia Nacional' and 'Ecuador'. Also heard 'nostra patria'. I recorded via the mp3 recorder past 1800. At 1805 I noted music and ads and mentions of 'Amazonas'.
One of the regulars heard during the daytime in the Napo jungles. At 18:06:30, mentioned 'Departemente de Amazonas', and 'La congress Nacional'.(or something like that....Spanish is not a language I understand). There are elections upcoming, and therefore many many ads for congressmen. Finally caught an ID at 19:42. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 6114.9, 2315-, Radio Union Mar 14 Good reception except for a het, with Radio Union ID at 23:18. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 6173.8, 2309-, Radio Tawantinsuyo Mar 14 Not really a logging. Rather a good het audible on this frequency, but I couldn't make out any audio. I listened again at 11:03 on March 15th and heard them with fair to good reception except for the het, while in the Napo jungle, and before the local power came on. This would be an easy logging with a better receiver. (Salmaniw,Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 6193.5, 2307-, Radio Cusco Mar 14 Relatively strong signal, but with a het from 6195 making life unpleasant. There's no USB/LSB on the Kaito, just SSB and no notch, of course, making it impossible to get rid of the het. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 6520.4, 2301-, Radio Paucartambo Mar 14 A tentative logging as no ID heard. Generally poor reception with barely audible voice. (Salmaniw,Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 6895, 1615-, La Voz del Campesino Mar 14 Excellent reception with Cuban sounding music. At 1622, a TC for 22 past. ID at 1632, followed by many political ads. I heard many many such ads in the days to come, as there are congressional elections upcoming in Peru. One of the strongest stations heard in the Amazon. I remember them as regulars on their old frequency above 6955. (Salmaniw, Napo River, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

PERU 9720, 2325-, Radio Victoria Mar 14 Nice ID at 23:28. Good reception, but not as good as parallel 6020.2 which was good to very good.

We have a tie.' At 0332, they ask the listener to tune in next time. Reception was quite good. I've never heard them on the

I regularly monitored them. Normally at excellent levels with 5-5-5 SIO levels. The 0400 English broadcast was heard perfectly, while the 0100 broadcast suffered somewhat from adjacent splatter from 5875, apparently from BBC Cyprus. This night, there was a music by request show in Ukrainian at this
time. (Salmaniw, Quito, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

5880, 0305-, Radio Ukraine International Mar 16 Very good reception in Ukrainian except for slight adjacent splatter from 5875, which I think was the BBC in Dari from Cyprus (also very strong).

Вчера вечером в 18.39 наткнулся на судовые маяки, работающие около
частоты 8423 кГц. Кто-нибудь знает более подробно про них или ссылка
есть, где про них почитать можно?
Принятые маяки:
8415 кГц три длинных тире, а затем позывной "IAK"
8423 кГц одно длинное тире и позывной "de SVO"
на этой же частоте, но на несколько сот Герц ниже работает маяк с
позывным " de LWZ"
8436 кГц три длинных тире и позывной "TAH"
Все маяки работают телеграфом
А на 8565 кГц принял радиотелетайп, но т.к. у меня приёмник не
подключен к компьютеру, то идентифицировать эту радиостанцию не
удалось. (Валерий Шептухин, Липецк, Россия - open_dx 1111)

На самом деле, это не совсем маяки -- а береговые станции для связи с
моряками.

Почитать можно в бюллетенях WUN Newsletter, о которых я сегодня как раз
писал в open_dx.

"IAK" = может быть, IAR? Это итальянское Roma Radio
SVO = Олимпия-Радио, Греция
"de LWZ" = не LZW? Если так, то это Варна-радио, Болгария.
TAH = Стамбул-радио.

С частотами, возможно, есть погрешность 1...2 кГц. И там не только телеграф,
но и SITOR -- как раз то, о чем Вы пишете как "длинное тире"

Just put one of the new aerials up in the attic as money problems have
got in the way of putting the aerials outside(tempary I hope as I
still want it on the roof).But inter was in on 94.9 on the h last
night and caen on their usual freqs was pretty clear to stereo (up to
30db) this morning BBC SCR on 104.8 is poor,BBC Gloucester on 104.7 is
poor(up to 18db) and presumbly Star on 107.7 at 19db just about clear
and again Caen is in as well as Rouen trying on 92.0 ..so could be
interesting
+ a lot of noise on the fm band(Not the Wannadoo wireless and talk
this time) geniune noisy band so we could get some E's.
Picodes database is in the process of being updated some new countries
with picodes have been added and a lot of changes so this will be out
in the next couple of weeks (Mark P, Devon, UK - skywaves 1874)

88.70, 1245-, Radio Santa Cruz Mar 19 Just a brief comment on the Galapagos. During the day, the entire MW spectrum is simply absent of any signals. None. My FM bandscan showed nothing at all in common with my 2005 WRTH. I do hope that the newer versions are more accurate. Nice ID for Radio Santa Cruz at 12:45. Other FM stations noted were: Radio Maria on 100.70 in mono (heard at 0500), 101.9 (something Estacion) sterio, 95.9 in stereo with classical music, 97.1 in stereo weakly heard, 98.3 in stereo
with an open carrier only. I never did hear anything else but an open carrier. 98.9 in stereo at fair level, with an ad for 'Wilson's' at 12:36. 100.70 mono station with low modulation but good reception otherwise. Due to the very early starts and long days in the water and hiking on land, plus the limitations of trying to listen on a boat, I did very little monitoring during this part of my trip. SW was often quite good especially on the higher ban!
ds during the day. (Walter Salmaniw, Galapagos Is, Ecuador - CumbreDX 1495)

I have got a nice reply from Southern Sudan Interactive Radio Instruction
(sSIRI) Project. This EDC project is located in Kenya with the postal
address: 28 Mugumo Road, P O Box 25010 00603, Lavington, Nairobi. They have
sub offices in places in Southern Sudan where their staff monitor students
and teachers response to the program. VT Merlin is their provider and the
signals come from a transmitter in Russia. There are plans to boost the
broadcast through Egypt but this is not yet decided.
At the moment the broadcast is halted as schools in Southern Sudan have
closed for holidays. They will resume broadcasts on May 8th, and there might
be new frequencies then. They have promised me to give me the new times and
frequencies as soon as decided and I promise to forward this information to
you! (Bjorn Fransson, Gotland, Sweden - hard-core-dx 40, 13)
