Eurooppa 1080 9.10. 1457- RUS: RR, Kovylkino (Saransk). Ohjelman lopuksi tietoisku Saranskin kulttuuritarjonnasta. SSS 1314 9.7. 0152- F: Loisirs AM, Paris. Kuului heinäkuussa joka aamuyö taajuuden vahvimpana. Ainoastaan espanjalaiset häiritsivät ajoittain. Hyvää musaa non-stoppina ja idejä melkein joka biisin jälkeen. ANA 1314 26.9. 2058- ROM: R Oltenia Craiova. Sattuipas tarttumaan nauhalle oivan ID:n kera. Välineinä mainio Sangean ATS-803A + oma luuppi säätökonkalla. MK 29.9. 2100- - Local ID ennen tasan uutisia. Kuulutti komeasti MWja FM-taajuudet. Yöllä pop/rock formaatti, joten helppo erottaa iranilaisesta. VJR 1323 26.9. 0800-1000 RUS: Novoye R, Olgino (Pietari). Uusi yrittäjä tällä taajuudella. Eka tunti ajankohtaisohjelmaa, toinen tunti nonstop-musiikkia. Tnx Alexey Osipov tip! MR 1486.3 1.10. 1615- MDA: R Moldova. Tämä askarrutti pari minuuttia, kunnes idasi ja paralleelikin löytyi jaksolta 1494. Ilmeisesti toinen tuon jakson asemista oli "lievästi" offsetillä. Myöhemmin illalla ei enää kuulunut, joten oli kai palannut ruotuun. JSA 1575 19.9. 0853- F: R Nouveaux Talents, Meudon. Oli Voice of Russian häiritsemä. JHY/V Aasia 603 6.10. 1430- CHN: CRI, Dongfang, Hainan. CRI lähettää tässä vietnamiksi. SSS 639 6.10. 1400- RUS: RR, Omsk. Lopetteli paikallisen ohjelmansa, kiinalainen hieman häiritsi. SSS 648 9.10. 1440-1530 IND: AIR Indore A. Ilmeisesti iranilainen vinkui vieressä taajuudella 650 khz. Kuului myös kaupungissa keskusantennilla ja vanhalla, vuoden 1953 putki- Philipsillä 430 A. SSS 675 6.10. 1445- VTN: VOV, Hanoi. Todella voimallisella signaalilla. SSS 891 8.10. 1400-1500 THA: Radio Thailand, Saraburi. Tämä näyttää olevan vakiokuuluja, kun antennit on kesän jäljiltä taas huollettu ja taisteltu metsässä hirvikärpästen kanssa, nämä otukset ovat levinneet jo Kainuuseenkin. SSS 1152 9.10. 1405- PAK: Radio Pakistan, Rawalpindi. Kiitettävä kuuluvuus ja selkeä idi, taajuudella myös häiriökeleillä UAE-asema. SSS 1170 9.10. 1415- PAK: Radio Pakistan, Peshawar. VoA Poron alta kuului Radio Pakistanin idi, tämäkin on uusi asema, teho tuntematon. SSS 1197 9.10. 1420- KAZ: BBC, Astana. BBC World Service ilahdutti tälläkin taajuudella. SSS 2

1287 27.9. 1650- J: JOHR HBC Hokkaido Hoso, Sapporo. Välillä dominoiden, samaan aikaan liuta tavallisia japseja - myös NHK-asemia alabandilla (747,774). Ennakoi pohjois-läntistä keliä myös. TK 1305 5.10. 1759- KOR: HLSV KBS1 Uljin. selkeä kutsu-idi AM- ja FM- taajuuksineen. Tämäkin taajuus on parantunut Norjan lopettamisen jälkeen. TK 1314 26.9. 2100- IRN: IRIB, Ardabil. Nousi Oltenia Craiovan alta. Todennäköisesti releoi valtakunnanverkon ohjelmaa. MK 1332 8.10. 1411-1420 PAK: Radio Pakistan, Lahore. Antaa IDejä kiitettävän usein, saattoi olla jopa paikallinen idi 14.17. Tämä asema edelleen puuttuu useimmista tietokannoista, tehosta ei ole tietoa. Moitteeton signaali. Teheran tulee myöhemmin dominoimaan taajuudelle. Filateliakerho esti nauttimasta 5.10. japanilaiskeleistä, mutta kyllä näitä aasialaisia kuuluu aivan riittävästi. SSS 1350 5.10. 1658- JPN: JOER Hiroshima. Täälä on joskus pieni breikki All Nite Nipponissa pari minuuttia vaille, joilloin "RCC" idejä. Ehkä syksyn paras japsikeli; ainakin voimakkaat asemat tulivat eurooppalaisten päällä useamman tunnin (mm 1242, 1278, 1287, 1314 nyt vapaa taajuus, 1413-20ut paremmin). Illalla vielä NHK-pimputuksia 1602 2025ut. Kuuluu nyt helposti, kun eurohäirikkö hiljaa. 7.10. kuului myös autoradiolla ja "paremmalla" rx:llä n 8 tuntia yhteen menoon! TK 1368 16.9. 1804- TWN: Chin Hsi AM 1386, Kaohsiung. Idin avautuminen vaati muutaman kuuntelukerran ja vertailun aiempiin äänityksiin. JHY/V 1386 1.10. 1545- THA: Kaan Kaset, Bangkok. Thai-asemia muutamalla taajuudella kohtuusinkulla (mm 1368). Mutta lokakuun ukkosmyrsky lähestyi ja pakotti kytkemään antennit irti! Tämä on hyvä taajuus myös Etelä-Suomessa, thain lisäksi usein Intia, Korea ja Kiina kuuluu tässä ennen euromyllyjen avauksia. TK 1404 9.9. 1533- CHI: Hubei RGD, Yincahng ym. JHY/V 1422 5.10. 1700- JPN: JORF Yokohama. hankalalla taajuudella, mutta kuuluttaa saksalaisen vetäessä henkeä. Keli oli aika hyvä, myös 1440 Sapporo nousi välillä Luxyn taustalla. TK 1476.091 5.10. 1940- PHL: DXRJ Iligan City. Tämäkin löytyy vanhalta tutulta splitiltä. Tuntuu olevan jo aikaisin äänessä, liekö 24h? TK 6245 13.9. 1800- CLD: Radio Zamaneh. Uusi Iran-clandestine aloitti 11.9. Radiozamaneh.com. VJR 3

Oseania 3935.07 3.10. 1700- NZL: R Reading Service, Levin. Tässä BOG (350m, 40ast.) antaa selvän edun verrattuna longwire (150m) antenniin. LW:lla asema kyllä kuuluu, mutta pohjahäiriöt peittävät sen lähes alleen. BOG antaa heikomman sinkun, mutta "pohjat" ovat tasolla -140 db (SDR14 mittari) ja audio luettavaa. Asema on hyvä myös taajuusmittausten kannalta - ehkä kalibrointiinkin - taajuus vaihtelee n. Herzin 3935.067 molemmin puolin, mikä on vahvistettu myös NZ:ssa ja Australiassa. TK Pohjois-Amerikka 650 7.10. 2109- GRL: KNR Qeqertarsuaq. Myös CJYQ 930 nousi kuuluville samaan aikaan. Lisäksi 1230:lla kuului 2135 CBC-tyyppistä px + EE-talk. Siitä ei idiä irronut, mutta todennäköisesti CFFB. Tämän jälkeen yön kelit lässähtivätkin tyystin. ANA 850 6.10. 0408- USA: KOA Denver CO. newsradio 8-50 K-O-A. JNU 1000 7.10. 0304- USA: KOMO Seattle, WA. Tämä Lapista ja USA:sta tuttuakin tutumpi asema oli minulle Velkuan mökillä "uusi" nappaus. ANA 1130 7.10. 0125-0205 USA: KFAN Minneapolis, MN. PEH 1250 7.10. 0100- USA: WSSP Milwaukee,WI. "Sportsradio 12-50 WSSP" Promosi Michael Savage'a. PK 1280 26.9. 0345- BER: VSB2 Hamilton. Tämä jäi haaviin puolihuolimattomasti. Metsässä ihmettelin hiukan taajuudella kuulunutta englanninkielistä henksuasemaa, kun jenkkikeliä ei muuten tuntunut olevan. Kotona sitten selvisi Werhosta, että Bermuda (jota en ollut aikaisemmin kuullut?) lähettää tässä uskontoa. "BBN Bible Institute". Eipä voi muuta todeta kun, että aika hyvät mullakin on noi tärppilistat... Taajuudella kuului myös WCMN. RLO/V 30.9. 0358-0420 - Vuorotteli puertoricolaisen kanssa. PEH 5.10. 0308- - Bible Broadcasting Networkia välillä lujaakin. Feidaili PR-aseman kanssa, joka lopuksi kädenväännön voittikin. JNU 1300 7.10. 0118- USA: WOOD Grand Rapids, MI. "1300 WOOD". PEH 1310 6.10. 0413- CAN: CIWW Ottawa,ON. Arvasihan tuon jo formatin perusteella kun Don McLean & American Pie kuului. Pannaan nyt "listalle" kun ei niin helppo ole Lapin eteläpuolella ollut, mutta nyt helpottuu kun Norja lähti. "Oldies 13-10". Alla "sports talk" ja unid SS ja ranskaa puhuva. PK 1330 7.10. 0355-0450 USA: WWRV New York, NY. Olikin New Yorkin 4

R Visión Cristiana. "Las 11 y 13 minutos en toda la ciudad de Nueva York" ja sen jälkeen pitkä säätiedotus New Yorkiin. Ennen 04 englantia ja sitten espanjaa. Kirjoittaessani kuuntelen netin kautta WWRV:tä ja tuntuisi lähettävän omaa ohjelmaa, koska antaa aikaa NY:iin. Mutta kukapa tietää, jos sittenkin lähettää NY:n ohjelmaa muidenkin asemien kautta. Tasan kuulutus sen verran heikosti, ettei ainakaan vielä ole idiä löytynyt. PEH 1510 7.10. 0248- USA: KGA Spokane, WA. Vanhan vaihtooppilaskaupunkini asema jaksaa vuodesta toiseen vahvalla signaalilla myös Turun saaristoon asti. ANA 1520 17.9. 0122- USA: WWKB Buffalo NY. Buffalo's AM 15-20. JHY/V 1580 6.10. 0441- CAN: CKDO Oshawa,ON. Esitteli FM-taajuutensa ja soitteli Roy Orbisonin "Pretty Woman". PK 1620 7.10. 0100- USA: KOZN Bellevue, NE. Taajuudella oli sutinaa 3 jenkin muodossa. Puolen tunnin kuuntelu irrotti vain "16-20 The Zone, Omaha's ESPN Radio"n. PK 7.10. 0244- - ANA 1630 28.9. 0327- USA: KRND Fox Farm, WY. RLO/V 7.10. 0330- - ANA 1640 7.10. 0054- USA: WKSH Sussex,WI. Radio Disney kamaa tietty. PK 1640 7.10. 0329- USA: WTNI Biloxi, MS. RLO/V 1660 16.9. 0256- USA: KQWB West Fargo ND. TEJ 1660 7.10. 0327- USA: KXOL Brigham City, UT. Vahvasti. Nyt siis espanjaa ja slogan "La Favorita". ANA 1670 28.9. 0309- USA: Tentative: KHPY Moreno Valley, CA.. Uskontoa espanjaksi. RLO/V 1680 28.9. 0307- USA: UNID: R Disney. RLO/V Keski-Amerikka 580 8.10. 0523- PTR: WKAQ, San Juan. ANA 680 5.10. 0109- PTR: WAPA San Juan. "7599111 - telefono para comunicarse con Guapa..." ja eikun soittelemaan. PK 870 6.10. 0430- PR: WQBS San Juan. Asema väitti olevansa "Guarda de Puerto Rico" Kuulutti myös "... aqui en WQBS 8-70 AM...". PK 930 4.10. 0244- PR: WYAC R. Puerto Rico. Heikosti Bogotalaisen ja Newfoundlandilaisen kyljessä. Mainitsi promossaan sekä 930 että 740 taajuudet. PK 1120 1.10. 0118- PTR: WMSW R Once, Hatillo. "Radio Once 11-20". RLO/V 6.10. 0100- - WMSW La Gran W, Hatillo. Ei kovinkaan vahvasti näillä minuuteilla. PK 1230 6.10. 0017- PTR: WNIK R Unica, Arecibo. Viimeinkin tämä jäi 5

haaviin. "Unica Radio 12-30 AM". Mielestäni tämä on ollut ihmeellinen syksy. Syyskuusta alkaen mielenkiintoisia asemia on kuulunut joka kerta, kun olen käynyt Vähäsuon kämpällä. Ovatko kelit muuttuneet jotenkin vai mistä tämä johtuu? Radio ja antennit ovat samat kuin ennenkin! Tosin lattarilangan (n.600m/293 ast) olen uusinut vuoden aikana, kun vanhassa alkoi olla liitoksia enemmän kuin metrejä. RLO/V 1280 30.9. 0355-0435 PTR: WCMN Arecibo. "Radio Uno 6-30, primera en las notícias" jätti lopulta Bermudan hopealle. PEH 7.10. 0536- - Todellinen superkuuluja nykyään. Signaali näivettyi vasta 0600 jälkeen. ANA 1300 1.10. 0309- UNID: UNID. Mielenkiintoinen räppiä yms englanninkielistä poppia soittanut asema. Kelien suunnasta päätellen vahvin vaihtoehto olisi PJD-2 Philipsburg! Tosin aseman formaatista minulla ei ole tietoa. RLO/V 1300 6.10. 2254- ATN: PJD-2 The Voice of St. Maarten, Philipsburg. Ehdottomasti tämän syksyn paras sieppaus, vaikka ei mikään suuri yllätys ollutkaan. Onneakin oli matkassa, sillä antoi idin samalla sekunnilla kun käynnistin äänityksen taajuudella. Aloitteli juuri urheiluohjelmaa, jonka toimittajalla on matala ja monotoninen ääni, josta ei saa mitään tolkkua. Kuului vain pari minuuttia eikä tuntunut nousevan enää myöhemmin, vaikka taajuutta tuli aina välillä kokeiltua. RLO/V 1540 7.10. 0015- BAH: ZNS1, Nassau. ANA 1640 28.9. 0301- UNID: UNID. Espanjankielinen, joka lähetti uutisia ja kuulutti lopuksi kutakuinkin: "Tele RN noticias". Voisiko olla R Juventus? RLO/V 1660 16.9. 0351- PTR: WGIT Canovanas PR. TEJ 1680 6.10. 2358- DOM: Radio Senda, San Pedro de Macorís. ANA 1700 28.9. 0350- MEX: XEPE Tecate BC. Pikaisella bandin tsekkauksella tämä jäi haaviin. BMW-mainoksia San Diegoon ja taloustalkkia. Aivan mahtavalla signaalilla. Onkohan pilkkuminimi vai antennin pohjoisempi suunta syynä siihen, että nämä alkusyksyllä kuulemani asemat ovat tulleet jotakuinkin stabiilimmin kuin iso osa viime kaudella lokatuista? JNU 1700 7.10. 0236- MEX: XEPE Tecate, BC. "Cash 1700". Pitkään ja hyvin. Kuului myös seuraavana aamuna (8.10.), vaikka kelit olivat selvästi huonommat. ANA Etelä-Amerikka 560 5.10. 0400- VEN: YVRH R. Nacional, Cd. Guayana. "Gloria" 6

-himnon jälkeen paukutteli samaa tavaraa 1310:n kanssa. Vaikea taajuus Kuopiossa yöaikaan. Tarkoittaa että "Pilkku-minimiä" pukkaa. PK 600 7.10. 0342- VEN: YVQB R. Sucre, Cumaná. Pörinäisellä taajuudella idasi toisen LA:n (Rebelde?) alla. PK 660 4.10. 0359- VEN: YVQZ R. Anaco 6-60. Muutaman vuoden jälkeen taas luureissa. "Médanos" kyllä yleensä dominoi. "Anaco seis-sesenta" "Desde Anaco, estado Anzoátegui...". PK 760 5.10. 0039- EQA: HCQR1 R. Quito. Odottelin RCN:n alta nousevaksi WORA:n mutta sieltä pilkahtikin idaamaan Quito. Ei jaksanut nousta oikein stabiilisti mutta tämä on jo SW:ltä kuitattu, joten ei ongelmaa. PK 790 3.10. 0219-0250 VEN: YVXM R Minuto, Barquisimeto. Levyjen välissä arpajaistuloksia ja "La Palabra, Lotería" mainoksia. "Radio Minuto, primera sintonía, diez de la noche y 20 minutos.". PEH 830 8.10. 0420- CLM: HJDM R Reloj, Medellin. Lähetti jotain selostusta kovasti feidaillen, sitten kuulutus: "... con de programas de Radio Reloj..." ja jatkoi musiikilla häipyen hiljalleen häiriöihin. PEH 840 7.10. 0349- ARG: LV9 R. Salta. Hämäsi tavallista rytmikkäämmällä musallaan mutta "AM 8-40 Radio Salta" kertoi totuuden. PK 850 4.10. 0414- VEN: YVZC R. Fé y Alegría, Maracaibo. Eka kerran tänä syksynä. Hirmuinen EU-qrm kyllä nyt tässä. PK 930 8.10. 0333- ARG: LV7 R. Tucumán, SM de Tucumán. "LV7 Radio Tucumán - La Radio de (todo?) Tucumán" Promosi jotain Julio Rafaelan ohjelmaa. PK 1020 1.10. 0103- VEN: YVMX R Calendario, Maracaibo. RLO/V 1030 1.10. 0350-0405 ARG: LS10 R Del Plata, Buenos Aires. Mainosti mm. futisottelua Rio Del Plata-Córdoba. PEH 1040 5.10. 0234- VEN: YVLB LV de Carabobo, Valencia. Tyypilliset loteria-tulokset. Taajuus 1039.63. PK 1200 28.9. 0045- VEN: YVOZ R Tiempo, Caracas. Puheohjelmaa. "...amigos estamos en Radio Tiempo en 1200 AM". RLO/V 1230 1.10. 0012- CLM: HJBR R Reloj, Tunja. "Radio Reloj". RLO/V 1250 2.10. - VEN: YVPZ R. Latina 12-50, Pto Ordaz. "12-50 AM La única en Guayana..." "24 horas de Radio Latina 12-50". PK 1270 10.10. 0453- ARG: LS11 R. provincia de BA, La Plata. Tämän aamun haaviin jäi vain tämä vaikka ylätaajuuksilla etenkin oli muutama mielenkiintoinen tapaus. mm. Andiasema 1540:llä. PK 1290 30.9. 0335- VEN: YVLF R Puerto Cabello, Puerto Cabello. TEJ 1300 7.10. 0114- VEN: Radio Recuerdos, "Tu AM Center", Caracas. ANA 1300 7.10. 0359- VEN: YVNS R Amistad, Maracaibo. Nousi idille juuri 7

sopivasti. Idin sanamuoto ei ole ihan selvä mutta ilmeisesti näin: "Desde Maracaibo --- transmite la senal de Amistad 1300 AM". Samalla selvisi että taajuudella aiemmin lokaamani unid (SS) ei ole tämä eikä siis R Recuerdos. Ellei tällä ole käytössä erilaisia kuulutuksia. RLO/V 1310 28.9. 0201- CLM: HJJZ Colorín ColorRadio, Bogotá. Jäi nauhalle, kun itse pyörin makuupussissa. Soitti John Lennonin "Imagine":n. Ensimmäinen kolumbialainen, jonka olen kuullut soittavan muuta kuin latinomusaa. RLO/V 1310 26.9. 0258- VEN: YV.. R Nacional de Venezuela, Barcelona/Guri. TEJ 1320 2.10. 0345-0455 VEN: YVWP R Apolo, Turmero. Ajoittain tosi lujaa, puertoricolainen yritti välillä tunkea päälle. PEH 7.10. 0514- - ANA 1330 7.10. 0430-0515 CHL: CB133 R. Metropolitana, Santiago. Rokkasi "Shake, rattle and roll" tapansa mukaan paikallisilla keskiyön tunteina. "... Metropolitana ciento, treinta y tres AM" Häiriöisemmät kelit kuin ed. yönä. PK 1350 1.10. 0253- ARG: LS6 R Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires. Kuului välillä hämmästyttävän hyvin, vaikka olikin oikeastaan aamun ainoa kymppitaajuudella kuulunut TA-asema. TEJ 1350 4.10. 0017- EQA: HCVP2 Teleradio AM, Guayaquil. Ei aivan niin vahvasti kuin Falcón. "Teleradio 13-50" Tosi hieno audio asemalla. PK 1360 24.9. 0306- BR: ZYH469 R. Cultura, Paulo Afonso,BA. Pari kertaa luureissa viikon aikana. Toinen kerta 1.10 -Nyt ohjelmaa "Madrugada com Você" "Cultura no ar" - jingle. PK 1450 15.9. 0350- CLM: HJNL La Carinosa Manizales. nousi kuin tykki tasan lähestyessä "La Cariñosa" idejä. Taajuus on splitillä 1450.025 alapuolella joukko muita. TK 1450 2.10. 0000-0450 VEN: YVKJ R.María, Caracas. Arvattavasti Sonera on vaihtanut nimensä "Radio María"ksi. Ainakin virallinen ID antaa siihen vahvat merkit. Tai sitten taajuusvaihto 1340 kanssa. PK 1460 31.8. 0420-0440 CHL: R Armonía Concepción. oli se toinen chileläinen näillä keleillä 1490:n lisäksi.tämäkin nousi välillä urbaanin kohinan päälle. Henksuformaatti tälläkin (vrt Nuevo Continente). Tämä on karvan yli tasan (n.+5hz). CIAOn testirf-tallenteessa (48kHz, 1455-1503) olikin kaikilla kymppitaajuuksilla asema - 1470 ilm. Argentina, 1480 Arg/Bras.- mutta "vain pari chileläistä" sai idattua. TNX taas kuunteluavusta JEÖ & JPR! TK/E 1490 15.9. 0346- VEN: "RQ 910". on siis Merida, joka kuuluu tähän ketjuun. Melko tarkasti tasalla, vain n. 3 Hz yli. TK 1510 6.10. 0430-0500 EQA: Tentative: Instituto Oceanográfico Guayaquil. 8

lienee tämä hämäävä asema, koska lähetti vain aikamerkkiä! Puolelta myös äänikuulutus ajasta, lienee idikin siinä, kunhan nauhoitusta ehtii tarkemmin kuuntelemaan. Bostonilainen peittosi myöhemmin vakiospliitillään n. +18 Hz. Tämä on tasalla, kuten aikamerkkiasemalle kuuluukin olla. Ei kuulunut kuitenlaan sw-taajuudellaan 3810. Samaan aikaa Teleradio 1350 tuli hetkittäin hyvin eli keliä oli Ekvadoriin(kin). TK 1630 1.10. 0246- ARG: L... AM Restauración, Hurlingham. Mielenkiintoinen keliyö: Argentiinaa ja Karibiaa sekaisin. Myös 1620:lla kuului espanjankielinen henksuasema, joka lienee argentiinalainen. Harmittavasti vain WDHP tunki päälle R Martillaan ja Kuuba-höpinöillään. RLO/V 4790.2 16.9. 0453- PRU: R Vision, Chiclayo. TEJ 6019.6 17.9. 0428- PRU: OAX4Q R Victoria, Lima. On näköjään pudonnut vaihteeksi tasataajuuden alle. TEJ 11915 7.10. 2045- B: R Gaucha, Porto Alegre. Jalkapallo-otteluselostusta, kuten myös monella muullakin 25 ja 31 m:n brassiasemalla.

I heard it at various times, including the sole daily English transmission at 1700 on both 1296 and 6111 (approx). The MW transmitter is now on-channel (ex 1295) but audio quality is poor and the signal was surprisingly weak. In the evening, it was suffering interference from the IBB transmitter in Afghanistan: Signal strengths on 6111 were also poor, though that might be because I was in the skip zone. It is worth noting that the Dada Gorgud ID is still being used. The ID in English was "Radio Dada Gorgud, the Voice of Azerbaijan". Overall though, the poor signals and audio quality meant that station was not properly monitorable in its own capital city. Some other Baku observations in brief: As per WRTH, 1296 also relays RFE at times, in parallel with 1530 (the latter much stronger in Baku). Of the other MW channels listed in WRTH, 549, 801 and 891 were heard (all in parallel) but there was no sign of listed Baku 612. The 801 transmitter carries Azeri Radio, not BBC as in WRTH (BBC is on 103.3 FM).

Source: BBC Monitoring research, 26 Sep 06 (via DXLD) LAOS: 567 MW, Lao National Radio (LNR) has recently extended its evening schedule to 1600*. I would guess this also applies to 6130. I have not been able to confirm the shortwave schedule yet, as reception of 6130 is usually very difficult here so late in the evening. (Davies in Dxplorer, Sep 10 via DXW) LNR International Service 7145 10kW; 2330-2400 Vietnamese, 0000-0030 Khmer, 0500-0530 Thai, 0530-0600 French, 0600-0630 English, and 1130-1200 Thai, 1200-1230 Vietnamese, 1230-1300 Khmer, 1300-1330 French, 1330-1400 English.

The network operates 24h. It is also transmitted on the former Nasional FM network, and additionally in Kuala Lumpur on the Klasik FM frequency, 93.9 MHz. (Davies in Dxplorer, Sep 10) 6049.64, RTM, Kajang, near Kuala Lumpur, carries Info FM in Malay 0200-0500, Asyik FM in Malay and Orang Asli languages 0500-1500, and Suara Islam for listeners in Indonesia 1500-1700.

Also heard in California 1400-1420, Sep 13, religious program starts with choral anthem, many Suara Islam FM IDs, reciting from the Qur an; 1605-1659:30*, segment with on-air phone calls ( Hello. Assalam aalaikum ), 1630 news, variety of music (ballads, pop, etc.), reciting from Qur an, off with choral anthem. Fair, but fading out to poor by s/off. I believe the recent info submitted by Alan Davies had a typo: should be 1400-1700 for Suara Islam, as has been observed on a number of occasions, including today, instead of 1500-1700; with Asyik FM (RTM) actually going to 1400, not 1500.

I have been unable to trace an evening transmission from Sibu on 6050. Even in Kuching, the 0400-0700 transmission from Sibu is more or less unintelligible because of interference from the Kajang transmitter currently on approx. 6049.64.

Wobbler: In brief, the Wobbler is not a station, it is an unexplained anomaly of some Cuban broadcast stations. When heard in its most vigorous mode it sounds like a sheet of metal being shaken or wobbled, hence the name I coined for the thing. At its most extreme it can be heard at night over powerhouse stations all across the country. As I mentioned, such an example on 1100 Radio Cadena Habana, from Havana Cuba, was heard in Hawaii. The northwest of the US has heard the Wobbler, but I don't think anyone from California has reported hearing any. There are a dozen or so Cuban stations which exhibit this unpredictable condition. There is no way to know when one or several might be heard, though in the past there have been periods where one sounded off for several days if not weeks at a time. Every day since I started tracking them -- well over a year now -- there has been at least one and usually a half dozen or so heard every day, but very much weaker than can be heard from beyond the near local south Florida vicinity. You can read about the suggested cause of the phenomenon -- generally believed to be attributable to malfunctioning old equipment and an unstable power system. You can also hear samples of it, and see spectrum traces of the signal. Plus, as I say, a lot more including my logs (W.
