Австралия
ABC NT Service, Alice Springs, Australia, 4835 kc, 0758-0815 UTC, December
28, 2007. SIO 433 through lightning static and occasional deep fades. ID at
0800 UTC, short news brief by man, then talk by man and woman. (Thomas F. Giella, KN4LF Lakeland, FL, USA - dxldyg 29/12/2007)

2058, 12080, IS from Radio Australia. If Brandon keeps the
same azimuth over 80?, this is close to one-of-a-kind:
just 10 kW working on a daytime path on 25m, across
the wide Pacific. Guess I need a helpful explanation
on this. Of course, poor signal, but what else can we
ask for?. (Raul Saavedra, Costa Rica - dxldyg 30/12/2007)

9580 AUSTRALIA Radio Australia, Shepparton; 1300-1315 31 December, 2007. Just
happened to tune in right after I awoke to hear the ringing in of 2008, while on
my TV, NBC's Today Show was showing Sydney Harbour fireworks live for a measly
few seconds. (Terry Krueger, FL, USA - CumbreDX 02/01/2008)

RA, 5995, clear of Harold Camping after 1500 and still holding up
at 1505 Jan 2 after news, with program from ABC Local Radio, starting with
``Buttons & Bows`` tune, how Aussie. Compere kept talking about ``the program``
but never heard its axual name. So can we find out? At the RA website you have
to pretend you are going to print a pdf schedule in order to view it. The one
for Pacific is dated Winter 2007 so at least a semi-year out of date, showing
Australian Express at 1500 (not 1505) UT Wednesdays. I don`t think so. Probably
a prolonged summer-vacation substitute, just plug in LR and forget about doing
any real RA shows; who cares what the listeners may expect? When we hear ``ABC
Local Radio`` on RA, are we really listening to Melbourne, and only 3LO,
Melbourne? Schedule at http://www.abc.net.au/melbourne/schedule.htm shows 2-5
am [AEDT] Thursday is Michael Pavlich with Overnights (Glenn Hauser, OK, USA - dxldyg 04/01/2008)

9500, 1035-1105 Noted a religous station here during period. Not sure
of the language being broadcast? At about 1051, a seaonal song heard. At
1056 other music heard. This time it's Hindu type music making me think I am
listening to CVC out of Australia. However my current list from Eibi says CVC
comes up at 1100 not 1000. Female talks in Hindi after and during the music.
Station is taking over the frequency as it's signal improves. Heard "CVC" in
comments on the hour by female. Heard "Bollywood" mentioned during music.
So this must be that via Australia. (Chuck Bolland, Clewiston, FL, USA, 04/01/2008)

Tuning around for something to monitor at UT +1
yearchange, Dec 31 at 2250, found O1 on 5945 with runup, but before 2300 I
switched to better signal on // 6155, where there was a countdown, full strike
of some clock, and then --- what else --- ``On the Beautiful Blue Danube``, no
doubt by the VPO, but it had not finished when transmission cut off abruptly at
2308* which is precisely the time 6155 normally closes, per Aoki. Just this
once, couldn`t they have made an exception? BTW, once it was off, I could hear
lite DentroCuban jamming, a prelude to the fierce full force pending at 0000
when Radio Republica comes onto the frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, USA - dxldyg 01/01/2008)

Албания
Albania R. Tirana 2100 UTC 9915 kHz January 2, 2008. Barely

With good 25 meter conditions I tuned over to 11710 at
0158 to listen to RAE's program in English at 0200. Heard OM in Spanish with ID
into national anthem followed by Radio Nacional IDs, then into radio publico
news, all in Spanish. Not sure if this was for New Years day or has the English
service disappeared? I have not heard any news to this effect only some
unsubstantiated rumors several months ago. Would hate to lose last source of
English news from South America. Happy New Year to you and all the readers of
DXLD (Steve Wood, South Yarmouth, MA, USA - dxldyg 02/01/2008)

no propagation towards Germany now at 1735 UT. Only a heterodyne

5030.05 BURKINA FASO Radio Burkina; 0140-0220 1 January, 2008. On past normal
sign-off for New Year's and absolutely blasting in with nice highlife vocals,
many listener calls and super-sexy female jock "Bonjour, bonjour" replies, along
with occasional male co-host. Into the Akon hip-hop/reggae "Don't Matter" big
hit at 0207, segued to West African pop. Great listening! Even Rebelde down on
5025 couldn't touch this big signal from my proximity. (Terry Krueger, FL, USA - CumbreDX 02/01/2008)

talks on 1355 . S5 33443 (Z. Liangas, Greece - hard-core-dx 03/01/2008)

Mixing product, 15650 minus 9420 = 6230, analogous to 6210 previously heard
which is 15630 minus 9420. So 6230 is possible whenever both higher frequencies
are on the air from Avlis. I wonder if you are close enough to be getting this
by groundwave? (Glenn Hauser, OK, USA - dxldyg 03/01/2008)

9680, RRI Jakarta, 1040-1050 There's a number of signals on this freq at the present

(P. De los Rios, Temuco, Chile, Ecuchas Del Mundo 01/2008)

On 1540 today (Dec.30) at 0745UT there was a much better signal peaking to
good strength, and remarkably steady for long periods. But where was it
from??? The programme was Gospel style music intro by a male voice - too
soft spoken to understand, unfortunately, for the amount of QRM that was
present. However, I thought he was speaking in accented English. Music went
'through' the hour (0800) and now became more popular and with reggae tunes
which even I recognised! There was a co-ch at times with American accented
English fading in and out. By 0900UT reception was still possible but too
poor to copy much of it.

According to the CHIN schedule, their Caribbean programme is replaced on
Sunday by Spanish - I didn't hear that language. But the language seens to
finish at 0130 local (0630UT?) when replaced by The Doctor Love Show in
English. Clicking on the show only brings up a virtually blank page with no
details, and onto English reveals - no English!

I also tried the ZNS web page only to find that it's "under construction",
and password protected for Staff. So, depending upon what Doctor Love was
doing, what I heard could have been ZNS. If so, many moons have passed since
I last heard that one. (Noel Green, U.K. - dxldyg 30/12/2007)

9520 CHINA. PBS Nei Menggu, 2320, 01/01/08, Mandarin. F w/Mandarin-language commentary, rather abrupt canned ID at 2330 ("Nei Menggu Renmin Guangbo Diantai"), then a presumed newscast followed by a couple of ads w/phone numbers and sound effects. Audio seemed rather low relative to signal strength. Fair. R Netherlands in Dutch via Sackville listed on 9520 from 2300-2400, but apparently missing (or not audible?). Mongolian service on 9750 also noted with fair to good signal and much better audio, though both
faded rapidly after 2335. (M. Schiefelbein, MO, USA - CumbreDX 02/01/2008)

9885 Radio Svitle, 14:45-15:01, escuchada el 3 de enero con emision de musica pop, se aprecia fuerte ruido de fondo, se identifica como “Radio Svitle”, locutora con comentarios, se entiende algo en modo SSB, tonos horarios, SINPO 42342. (J. M. Romero, Burjasot, Spain - playdx2003 03/01/2008)

Только что слушал Эммануила на 9885. Очень сильные помехи от Голоса России на этой же частоте на русском. А в принципе, сигнал в Москве сильный.
(Василий Кузнецов, Москва, Россия - open_dx 03/01/2008)

There is a weak signal audible on 9885 at 1515 Thursday (Jan.3), and
programme appears to be pop music. I can also hear occasional voice, so
there might be two transmissions. A female voice appears during music
breaks.

Ah yes - and I hear it parallel their on line service same as 9885. Use of
USB is necessary to hear any signal on SW due to loud/wide splatter from KWT
in DRM on 9880. Thanks to Ivan Lebedevsky - I would not have noticed it
otherwise! The signal on 9885 either faded out or went off by 1530.

BTW - VoRussia is heard on 9885 via Dushanbe til 1500 (World Service in
Russian). I wonder where the Radio Emmanuil transmitter is located?
(Noel Green, U.K. - CumbreDX 03/01/2008)

Why do you think this is from Ukraine? It`s the new Ukrainian service of CVC
via Juelich since Jan 1 at 1400-1800, apparently taking programming from this
gospel-huxter FM station, and thus of only passing interest. (Glenn Hauser, OK, USA - dxldyg 03/01/2008)

Now at 1600 also Family Radio in Enlish signed on on Emmanuil and VoR.
(Noel Green, U.K. - dxldyg 03/01/2008)

Family Radio in English is sched - and has appeared - on
9885 at 1600 (til 1900). This is listed with 500kW to Ciraf 47 & 48 via
135deg., and would surely clash with anything out of Julich at the same
time? It's loud here with some deep QSB, and no trace of any co-ch. Radio
Svitle (or Radio Emmanuil as I hear announced via their web site) either
went off or faded out on 9885 by 1530. It was only weak when heard at 1515.

I assume via Julich from Jan.1 would mean under CVC sponsorship/ownership as
intimated by Kai Ludwig?

VoRussia is sched (and has been heard recently) on 9885 til 1500 with
Russian World Service via Dushanbe (listed 100kW to Ciraf 41 via 140deg.)

Сначала было слышно очень хорошо, но потом сигнал начал замирать и
утопать в шуме DRM на соседней 9880. Также пробивались позывные Голоса
России. После 16.00 прием стал невозможным, станция заглохла. По моим
прикидкам передатчик находится где-то не очень далеко и направлен на
Украину. Поэтому здесь лучше было слышно. По качеству модуляции
напоминает Германию. (А. Егоров, Киев, Украина - open_dx 03/01/2008)

Да, оно работает с 1400. SINPO 55555. Задержка около 20 секунд
относительно передачи в Киеве на 67,70 МГц. Очень интересная задержка.

Задержка из-за того, что канал подачи - Интернет-поток!

I`ve heard it too, no doubt, RNT reactivated on 4905: best 60m signal
by far outside NAm, Dec 26 at 0605-0620, mostly talk in uncertain language,
maybe part Arabic, part French, with bits of music. Nothing resembling an ID
heard. Mauritania might have competed if it were audible on 4845. Furthermore
the `4905` signal was a smidgin below frequency as others have reported minus
30-40 Hz or so; while I couldn`t be precise to two decimal places, I could tell
it was off, using the YB-400 simply by zeroing the BFO on WWV, and then
stepping from 4905 up and down 1 kHz. The het at 4904 was noticeably lower in
pitch than at 4906 (Glenn Hauser, OK, USA - dxldyg 29/12/2007)

This year, NHK cut back SW coverage of their NY Eve special to only
two SW frequencies, for Asia. But I could hear one of them, 9750 at 1432 Dec 31
with mix of pop music, live audience response and talk, story-telling? in
Japanese only. Unlike the last few years, however, they actually stayed on the
air and acknowledged the arrival of 2008 at midnight local, 1500 UT when there
was a countdown, brief celebration and fireworx sounds. No gongs heard until
almost 1505; reception was only fair but peaked at 1515 during drumming, and
still audible tho weak at 1538. I also heard R. Japan in English on 9875
closing at 1427 giving frequency for next broadcast at 2200, 13640. To find out
the frequencies for the 1400 broadcast you have to listen to the end of the

R. Nikkei, 6115, Jan 2 at 0729 mentioning ``tampa hoso`` = shortwave
radio, and list of MHz before closing at 0730* Earlier, at 06-07 this collides
with CRI via Canada aimed due west. CRI is usually on top, but with heavy QRM
de Japan, especially in winter. The frequency gurus at VTC or CRI apparently
can`t imagine that Nikkei would be a factor in C/WNAm. It is intriguing to
wonder what the Japanese service of a SW station in Tampa FL would call itself

Эхх хотелось бы конечно что б и правда туда 10_голд вернули, хорошая была станция.
Но нынче там GrootNieuwsradio, тоже голландцы вроде. Песни мелодичные, часто вроде религиозные.

С 1 января 2008 года ТрансМировое радио начало вещание на курдском языке,
частота 864 кГц. Окончание программы в 19.10 utc, после перенастройки
передатчика и антенны на частоте 1350 килоГерц начинается в 19.15 программа для
Израиля.

Местонахождение передатчика, думаю, ни для кого не составляет тайны.

Как я уже ранее писал, программы ТрансМирового радио на русском языке с 1
декабря прошлого года не транслируются на "Маяке". Начиная с 1 января эти же
программы не транслируются на волнах радиостанции "Юность".

Yesterday, before going late to bed at aroud 04:45 UTC, I had a quick check on LW. Earlier in the night, I can appreciate with fair signal, reggae music in Polish on 225 Khz. These are a few "exotic" logs from my home QTH near midnight local.

225 POLAND, Polskie Radio, Solec Kujawski. Talk in Polish, fair (01/03/2008, 04:47))

261 RUSSIA, Radio Rossii, Taldom. Woman in Russian probably, tough to show it. There's a NDB in St-Felix-de-Valois near Montreal who's blasting on 260 Khz. I had to tight the filters and when editing, I even use the equalizer to attenuate that tone. See attached file. This is the best audio until now I had with this one (01/03/2008, 04:51)

270 CZECH REPUBLIC, Cezky Rozhlas 1, Topolna. Man in Slavic, poor to fair mixed with NDB (01/03/2008, 04:56)

As a tentative, I checked on 279 Khz and heard irregular weak audio. But usure on that one.

Digital Radio

На этой неделе 24 и 25 декабря из Талдома проводились трансляции
радиостанции Маяк на частоте 3955 кГц с 6 до 13 часов. Принимал эту передачу
25 декабря примерно с 7.40 до 8.20, в остальное время на частоте ничего не
было заметно в первую очередь из-за того, что тестовая трансляция была
предназначена для России, и антенны явно были направлены не на запад, ну и,
к сожалению, около 10 часов по местному времени локальные помехи задавили
практически все в этом диапазоне. Увы, даже рамочная антенна уже с ними не
справляется. Параметры трансляции как всегда без сюрпризов: 17.46 kbps,
mono. ID:E07000. Название радиостанции ее организаторы записали латинской
графикой - Mayak, кто бы сомневался, зная практику инженеров из Талдома. На
мой рапорт и замечания насчет целесообразности использования английского(?)
языка в названии русской радиостанции, вещающей для России на русском языке,
не получил никакого ответа. Адрес для рапортов, кстати, объявлялся прежний:
rc-3-buch_at_mail.ru.
Еще записал 24 декабря на частоте 11615 кГц с 9.30 до 15 часов логфайл
радиостанции Voice of Russia - более менее стабильный прием наблюдался
примерно до 10.30. Никаких изменений в названии и в контактной информации
радиостанции за время, начиная с 11 ноября, так и не произошло, к сожалению.
В условиях, когда ни на одно из моих писем - и в технический центр, и в
редакцию я в течение более чем месяца демонстративно не получил ни одного
ответа, понять причину невозможно, вряд ли серьезным аргументом помимо уже
озвученных можно считать отсутствие на клавиатуре контролирующего трансляцию
компьютера русских букв, и совсем не хочется верить в высокомерное упрямство
россиян, которым не пристало следовать советам из какой-то Латвии, пусть
даже и логичным, типа раз не мы сами до этого додумались, так назло будем
делать все наоборот. По меньшей мере законам формальной логики действия
персонала этой российской радиостанции точно не поддаются.
Еще хотелось бы отметить, что радиостанция Deutschlandradio Kultur начала
транслировать сигнал AMSS на частоте 990 кГц. 25 декабря без труда удалось
принять его и зафиксировать скриншоты основного и Live Schedule интерфейса,
несмотря на сильные помехи от 999 кГц. Саму станцию в т.ч.и из-за локальных
помех услышать было почти невозможно. Когда-то уже говорил и еще раз
повторю - очень хорошая технология, особенно для ДХ-истов. После принятия
всего блока информации о радиостанции удалось дополнительно узнать в онлайне
следующее: DKULTUR, German, DAM Mode2 (+6 dB), ID:E0D220 и частотное
расписание. Еще в декабре принимал BBC World Service на 5875 кГц с AMSS
сигналом. (Владимир Казгунов, Лиепая, Латвия - open_dx 03/01/2008)

totally. 1700-1900 UT scheduled. Dec 31.

YEMEN 9780.05 Sana' Yemen Radio program, Arabic HQ prayer in progress at
1635 UT, S=7 signal in soweGermany, Dec 31.

UNID 9585 - came across 1650 to sign off at 1715 UT. Female voice read
Russian like nx, in very, very slow speed, in an old fake slight foreign
accent. Whole transmission was covered by a BUZZY tone. ID sounded like
"Indivskyie Radio".

HFCC table couldn't help, but Aoki's list shows AIR Delhi India, scheduled
1615-1715 UT on 9585DEL, 11620BGL, and 15140DEL. Surprisingly the music
noted during the program reminded me on more Central Asian
Afghan-Iranian-Turk style today!?

At 1715 UT sudden 1000 Hertz tone for approx. 8 seconds appeared on 9585 kHz
and tx signing off. Txion was well ahead of co-channel Vatican radio in
Armenian and Russian, so beware to get the right program content...

(Rubens Ferraz Pedroso, Brasil - radioescutas 03/01/2008)

281 ALASKA Point Barrow VIR, Dec 29 0213 - 2 CW aerobeacons audible here, with hopefully one at Point Barrow. Taped to my Edirol for confirmation later. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

531 AUSTRALIA 4KZ Innisfail, Queensland, Dec 29 1520 - Good reception this morning from DU on this frequency with local ads for Innisfail during a call-in program. Cochannel JJ just started to fade-in. Earlier, not heard at all (the JJ that is). (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

570 CANADA CFWH Whitehorse, Dec 31 07:00 - Very good reception with ID just before TOH as 'CBC 990 in Carmacks', which is a 40 w retranslator in Yukon. Network news followed, and then the weather for southern Yukon. Nothing more specific to give a positive ID. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

610 CANADA CKRW Whitehorse, Dec 29 0227 - Nice ID as, 'Your community radio station, CKRW'. Cochannel several stations including CHNL Kamloops, and earlier on, CKYL, Peace River AB. Only heard on my N/S Beverage (a consistently excellent performer). Good to be back in Masset. Very quiet electrically, as one would expect with no one out here during the winter period. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

630 ALASKA KIAM, Jan 1 1610 - Central and far north Alaskan weather (Brrr!) over cochannel presumed KJNO Juneau, followed by 'AM' and Christian Net IDs. Not sure of why KJNO was so strong an hour or so ago, and now the weaker more distant Alaskans propagate better until local dawn. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

675 VIETNAM Voice of Vietnam 1, Jan 1 1602 - A strong signal. Unusual this season, compared to last, when this transmitter was heard daily at excellent levels at times. Best I've heard them in a long while (October). (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

680 ALASKA KBRW Barrow, Dec 30 1904 - A tentative logging on this one. I'm hearing 2 (possibly 3) stations with a church service with Christmas hymns in progress with fairly low modulation, usually under the dominant station with hit music. As is so common with Alaskans, the voice modulation is much lower than the music component, making IDing more difficult. I think I heard the ID for the other station...KKGR (East Helena, MT). At least I heard KGR. I'm going to let this one continue to see if I have any
luck. Interesting, that I'm hearing it best on my 40 deg BOG. Yes, just heard the MT ID as '68 KGR'. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

680 ALASKA KBRW Barrow, Dec 31 1612 - Halleluiah! Finally, good reception with Alaska news and then full ID and into local programming about the cancellation of the fireworks for tonight due to illness of the pyrotechnician! After a late evening at my Haida adoptive parents, I slept in until after 8:00 am. Darn! But this makes up for it, after years of trying, and several tentative loggings. Instead, celebrate at the roller rink tonight. Into northern Alaska weather at 16:20 UTC. High temps 5 to 15 below!
They were gone when rechecked at 16:45 recheck (instead the usual KNBR). Perhaps someone could explain why this happens (seems to be consistent ....Alaskans really peak at dawn enhancement, and then are replaced by stations to the south, even though those stations were in darkness, and now in broad daylight). (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

693 GREAT BRITAIN BBC Radio 5 Live, Jan 1 0355 - Good reception, except for some splatter from CBU 690 with talk program. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

711 KOREA HLKA KBS1, Jan 1 1558 - Good to very good reception with KK banter, but more interesting is a cochannel playing the old American tune, 'Close to You'. This might be an Australian station, although there wasn't any ABC fanfare ot 16:00. On top of this, there is a jammer. Presumably CC against the Voice of Han?. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

720 ALASKA Russia, Jan 1 16:59 - Noticed Radio Rossii's IS while checking to see whether KOTZ was there (no luck on the latter. Inspirational music instead without a TOH ID, so not sure who that would be. Could still be KOTZ, I suppose. Will have to review the mp3 files for sure. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

720 USA WGN Chicago IL, Dec 31 0138 - Searching for KOTZ, instead I'm hearing Chicago with good reception except for some pretty fierce splatter from both above and below. Had to turn off the AGC for best results. Surprised, since Alaskans are coming in quite well tonight so far. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

720 USA WGN Chicago IL, Jan 1 0514 - Still searching for Kotzebue, AK. Instead, I'm hearing the New Year's bash on WGN from Chicago with good reception except for the awful adjacent splatter. Still fun to listen to them, though!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

810 RUSSIA Radio Rossii, Jan 1 1545 - Fair to good reception Razdolnoye on the Pacific coast of Russia. Radio Rossii programming, // to 279. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

819 NORTH KOREA KCBS, Jan 1 1540 - Very good reception, with clean audio, unlike so many of their other transmitters. Usual female operatic performances. North Korea particularly well heard on this trip to Masset. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

873 KOREA (NORTH) KCBS, Dec 31 1731 - With NHK2 off at this late hour, the North Korean is very well heard with KK operatic singing. Appears to be right on frequency with good modulation....a rarity with the North Koreans. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

909 GREAT BRITAIN BBC Radio 5 Live, Jan 1 0439 - Again, at times very nice reception with the same lovely modulation and clarity heard on 693 earlier. Some sort of a discussion program with some laughter, etc, but once again would fade down. Seems in // to 693. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

910 ALASKA KIYU Big River Radio, Galena, Dec 29 1745 - One of my still to hear stations. Not ID'd yet, but NPR programming // to 870 KSKO, McGrath. Fair level to good. Not quite in sync with KSKO (satellite delay). Unfortunately starting to fade out before the TOH leaving CKDQ, Drumheller AB, and another station. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1026 PHILIPPINES DZAR Soshine Radio, Dec 29 1533 - A very interesting morning. Initially, I heard a CNR jingle at 15:33, then almost immediately conditions flipped to a preacher in English and then inspirational music. This must be DZAR, Soshine Radio. A very good signal as I type this!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1089 GREAT BRITAIN Talk Sport, Jan 1 0251 - Surprisingly strong reception with call-in program, presumably about the sports highlights from the year. Excellent clean and strong modulation. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1098 MARSHALL ISLANDS V7AB Radio Marshalls, Jan 1 0824 - Poor to fair reception with islands music. I'm not usually up to hear the station, just the OC that's always present during dawn enhancement, so nice to hear them during their normal programming day. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1107 UNID unid, Jan 1 0425 - I'm hearing two transmitters on this frequency. Someone is on the high side....upto to 50 Hz high, it seems causing a disturbing hum which destroys any chance of IDing the stations. The other is spot on, it seems. Any ideas? There is weak music in the background, though. I wondered about AFN. When stationed in Germany, I really enjoyed listening to them here. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1161 UNID unid, Dec 29 1723 - I'll need help on this frequency. I'm hearing an Asian language, perhaps Thai? The trouble is that most possibilities have signed-off, including the Thai and Filipino stations. Light-hearted bantering between a man and woman. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1170 ALASKA KJNP North Pole, Dec 31 0606 - Excellent reception tonight of many Alaskans tonight. PAL suggests that KJNP signs-off at 06:00 during the winter. Not so! They had a lovely full ID at 06:00, then news and extensive weather forecast followed by a syndicated program called the Voice of Hope. Not sure whether they're 24 hrs or not. Still on at 07:17 recheck. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1170 ALASKA KJNP North Pole, Dec 29 1711 - Very good reception with description of upcoming New Year's celebrations. Cochannel presumed HLSR, Korea. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1170 KOREA (SOUTH) HLSR KBS Liberty 2, Dec 30 1616 - A very interesting channel. At times, HLSR will be absolutely armchair, and then fade down into the mud to be overtaken by KPUG, Bellingham, and then fade right back up to dominate totally. Disturbed conditions today for certain! Rechecked them at 18:00 UTC (10:00 am local) and they still dominated the frequency completely with a very nice ID. Wonder when they'll fade out!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1188 UNID unid, Dec 31 1725 - Presumably one of the CC stations with very exotic sounding traditional music with brief talk by a woman. Not exactly sure who this is. The last 2 days I've heard both FEBC and JOKP on this frequency, but much earlier. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1206 FRANCE France Info, Jan 1 0331 - Right up there with Virgin 1215's strength with French news, but suffering from serious adjacent splatter from both sides. Good when they fade up and then briefly fading down again. Weather at 0335 (heard mentions of the Pyrenees). ID at 03:36. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1215 GREAT BRITAIN Virgin Radio, Jan 1 0143 - Finally some good TA activity! Good reception with, '2008 is here on Virgin Radio' into Boy George piece. Highly variable, though, so interesting things are going on with the ionosphere for sure! There at good level one minute and gone the next. Turning out to be the best TA evening in a long while for me, and surely by far the best (and only) TA night of this brief visit to the Queen Charlottes. Lot's of 'Happy New Year from Virgin Radio', etc between songs.
No signs of any other cochannel stations (like Russia or Spain) so far. Spoke too soon. At 03:26 started to hear some Russian as Virgin faded down, before they came blasting back. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1224 SPAIN COPE Albacete, Jan 1 0419 - A presumed logging, as I don't know who else this could be. A ballad sung by a male....sounded akin to an Irish ballad to me, then some weak speach. This night has really opened up. Earlier, only the upper half of the band was open to TA, but from around 03:45, the entire band opened (except for LW). Haven't seen it as good since September!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1230 ALASKA KVAK, Dec 29 0316 - A very interesting frequency with a number of cochannels. The dominant is an unid French language station, but slightly off frequency are 2 Alaskans. I heard a distinct KVAK ID (the staton witch is off, I think). About a minute later I heard 'KIFW.com'. KIFW is easily heard here during the day, but KVAK is a new one for me. Now to ID the other station! At 03:30, there was clear Korean, so that would be KWYZ in Everett, WA. No longer hearing any French. One of the Alaskans
in on 1229.95, so quite a way off! Got it! ID as 'KVAK Country' at 03:52. They are off frequency for sure. In fact, I think both Alaskans are off frequency on the low side. They take turns dominating the frequency. KVAK seems to be the most off at around 1229.95 while KIFW is about 1229.97. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1340 CANADA CFYK Yellowknife, Jan 1 0235 - CBC Radio 1 programming. There are many transmitters listed, but this transmission was in the MT zone, and parallel to Calgary on 740, so clearly must be Yellowknife, and only heard on my North Beverage. Good at times, and then down into the mud. A new one to me. Let's hope it holds for the TOH. 2500 watts listed. Wonder why others don't report this one very often (if ever)? At 02:57 they said they'd take a break for news and local weather and then resume. As
was my luck, they faded down at the top of the hour then returned about 1 minute past. Best heard on my 30 degree BOG, although a C&W station comes up to dominate at times. Good again at 03:03 about Benezir Bhutto's assassination. Darn! It faded down again just as the forecast was given....lots of minus 20s etc, and then back into dispatches at 03:05 (which then faded up again!). Next hour again! Into a comedy program at 03:30 until 03:58. I noticed that 740 had l
ocal weather for Alberta, but Yellowknife just had network filler music...not a good sign. Very good reception, though! At 04:00, all that was said was, 'It's 9:00', and into network news. Let's see if weather follows. Yes! At 04:05, they went into the Yellowknife weather. Sure wish they'd give a proper 'CBC Yellowknife' ID, though! At 04:59, they gave a CBC North ID, and a frequency of 105.1 at Cape Hope (I think), and then into the hourly CBC news. Then faded down to nothing again. Quite the night!.
(Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1431 JAPAN unid STV, Dec 29 1620 - I'm not sure about this one. 1440 STV Sapporo is booming in, and I see that 1431 is in // to it, but my PAL does not reflect this. No STV JJ transmitters, just BSS, WBS, and GBS transmitters. Hmmm. Good reception. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1450 ALASKA KLAM Cordova, Dec 31 1639 - Although not Unalaska, which I really wanted, I'm still very pleased to hear this one with marine weather (synches Alaska), and then mentions of Cordova followed by IDs and mentions of Cordova count down tonight. There is another weaker station cochannel....I can dream that this just might be KIAL! A VERY good morning!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1503 JAPAN JOUK Akita, Dec 29 1609 - Very strong reception with NHK1 programming. Remarkable for a 10 kw station. Sure sounding more like 100! Traditional Japanese male vocal. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1592 UNID unid beacon, Dec 29 1544 - Very weakly heard, but there's a weak CW beacon on this frequency. Not listed in PAL. I'm suspecting a Russian FE location. Further checks necessary. Just barely audible, but with a significant het. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

1602 JAPAN NHK2 low powered stations, Dec 29 1540 - Good reception with sign-off earlier than I had thought, but NHK2 has changed the times. This is a UTC Saturday. Surprisingly good. There's a lot of 0.1 and 1 kw stations. The most likely is probably JOCC in Asahikawa, Hokkaido with 1 kw listed, although there's another 1 kw Hokkaido station as well at Embetsu without a call-sign. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

4800 CHINA China National Radio 1, Dec 30 0049 - Very good reception of CNR1. No sign of CODAR using the west Beverage. Only in the deep of winter would this be possible here! Almost graylining all the way. Remember Radio Moscow? Well I heard no less than 13 parallel frequencies! 11720, 12045, 13610, 9690, 9675, 15380, 15550, 11750 (very strong), 11760, 11710 (very strong), 11925 (superb), 15480 and 11960 (very strong). Wow!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

4830 MONGOLIA Mongolian Radio 1st Program, Dec 31 00:55 - Poor reception, but there with Mongolian music, time pips at 01:00 and then speech too weak to understand. Parallels noted on 4895 and 7260, both also very poor. A rare catch here for sure!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

4880 SOUTH AFRICA SWR Africa, Dec 29 1819 - Fair reception with English talk. Not noted on listed // of 7125 (VOR with very good strength). This is at 10:20 am local time. Northerly latitudes sure help! Still lots of MW 9 kHz stations audible, by the way!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

4880 SOUTH AFRICA SW Radio Africa, Dec 30 1731 - Good reception with modern EZL music. Not heard again on 7125 due to VOR in E with excellent reception. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

4905 CHAD Radio Diff TV Tchadienne, Dec 29 0519 - Good reception with African music. Best heard on NE Beverage...aimed towards Europe and Africa. Listened again at 18:30 and sure enough they're hear again at fair level in French. Africa does propagate in the winter in our mornings. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

6240 RUSSIA Voice of Russia World Service, Dec 29 0205 - Surprised to hear VOR here at good level in English with news. Best heard on my N/S Beverage. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

7245 TAJIKISTAN Radio Tajikistan, Dec 30 0232 - Not 100% certain this is them, but I can hear weak Russian talk by a male and woman. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

9445 INDIA AIR GOS Service, Dec 29 2125 - Good reception of the GOS of AIR in English. The only other parallel noted was 9410 which was weak. Listed as from Aligarh to Europe. Into news at 21:30. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

12025 PHILIPPINES Radio Filipinas, Dec 29 0209 - Fair reception in English. Nothing heard on listed // of 17770 and 15285. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

12095 THAILAND Radio Thailand, Dec 30 0046 - Very good reception in English direct, to ECNA with trendy, very western sounding programming. Sounds more like a local program for westerners. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

13590 ZAMBIA CVC, Dec 29 1824 - Christian vocals at fair level. Presumable Christian Voice from Zambia. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

15275 THAILAND Radio Thailand, Dec 29 0202 - Good reception with English news in this direct transmission to WCNA. Some deep fades noted. Surprised that this worked! Very strong the following night, with up to S9 signal strength and superb modulation. 'Good morning, and thank you for tuning in to the morning news'. Proves that propagation is possible at this late hour!. (Salmaniw, Masset, BC)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4800.0, checked late Dec 31, but nothing heard until 0011 Jan 1,
