"greetings - Hello, I am the North Korean Democratization Committee. The unification we must
achieve is a free reunification in which the founding ideologies of the Republic of Korea are
liberal democracy, free market economy, ROK-US companionship, and Christian entry theory.

North Korean defectors are connecting to North Korea's nine provinces, 211 cities and counties,
and 3,611 villages. Together with them, it is the time to achieve free unification right now,
and the time to achieve it. Please lead the turbulent era of unification together. Together,
you are the hope of unification."

KOREA SOUTH. 7580, CDNK Radio, 1336-1431 UT, on March 16 (Tuesday).
*1336’42“- Carrier on, after that, an open carrier continues.
-1359’51“- Broadcast begins on "Seoul-e saneun salamdeul". It was the same program as Saturday, March 13.
-1429’50“- The program ended, and "Seoul-e saneun salamdeul" started again.

There is a broadcast guide for each day of the CDNK during the program, but it is not being broadcast as scheduled.
Is there a problem with the program material at the transmission station?
The reason is not clear.

Hi Glenn,

You are certainly correct about the language that
we both heard on the March 1 broadcast of R. Lead
Africa Media (5910 kHz.).

Thanks very much to Ralph Perry for the contact info!
Sent off a reception report to Baker Mayambala
at Radio Lead Africa Media. My report contained a
reference to my recording of a portion of the March 1
reception. He listened to my audio (https://goo.gl/hZWXLc)
and responded - " the language you heard is called
Luganda. Mostly spoken by the Baganda tribe found
in the central region of the country." Also indicated -
"we shall be having more bi-lingo as we move forward."

Thank you for the email. Yes we do broadcast in local

We have some broadcasts in English and we will send you

I am personally in Canada where we speak English and

suddenly about 0257, leaving RLAM in the clear with good signal.

March 21 (Monday). Carried their own program; person on phone in
vernacular with person in studio translating into English; technical
problems with phone connection; hard to hear the person on the
phone, while the studio audio was good; two different spots giving
their schedule for days and times of broadcasts; Colombia (5910+)
as usual went off about 0257.

My audio is partially clear: "Lead Africa Radio," but think she stumbled
over the first time she said "Radio," just before the "Lead Africa Radio,"
as that was not too clear.

CONGO DR 6210 R. Kahuzi (Tent) - May be worth watching this frequency
in the weeks ahead &#8211; today (Sep 22) I was able to detect a noticeable
(but varying) carrier on 6210, but no discernable audio at 1915 tune
from Perseus sites in central Germany and N. Switzerland. This station
has been hrd from sites in W. Europe, W. Australia and Sri Lanka in
the past (2009 &#8211; 2012). I can contact the station manager Barbara Smith
to see if in fact R. Kahuzi is actually broadcasting. Since the carrier
persisted past 2010 (nominal s/off), this could also be an unknown spur.
In the past R. Kahuzi was not known to do extended bcasts.

Items marked "BDXC-UK DX News" originally appeared in the DX News section edited by Dave Kenny
of the British DX Club's "Communication" magazine.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Algeria
Radio Algerie Internationale is now being heard daily from 1800-1900 on 13820 via Issoudun. It features
segments in French, Arabic, English and Spanish. The start times for each segment varies. (Allen Dean)
The schedule is highly variable but usually in this sequence: 1800 French; 1815 Arabic; 1830 English (not Sat); 1840
Spanish; 1850 French or Arabic; 1859 transmission closes; the English slot is only irregularly heard on Fri/Sat/Sun. Many
years ago RTA International used to be heard on SW until RTA’s own transmitters broke down back in the 1980s.
(Observations by Dave Kenny & Alan Roe, BDXC-UK DX News)

DR Congo
Radio Kahuzi, Bukavu, on 6210v kHz noted off air for weeks. Manuel Mendez contacted the station about
this and their reply was "We are moving our SW antenna and hope to do better soon in the evenings; it is off and on
during the day also, so we pray a lot for power. We appreciate your DX reports, and will try to give you a call back when
we test the new location of the Antenna! Keep looking up!" (Manuel Mendez, BDXC-UK iog, 29 July 2020)

Djibouti
La Voix de Djibouti is back on SW, alternate Sundays at 1400-1459 on 17870 via Bulgaria. it was on the air on
7 and 21 June 2020. Heard here 21 June with a fair signal in Afar or Somali, followed by some Arabic and French with ID
“La Voix de Djibouti”. Website https://lavoixdedjibouti.info has a recording of a weekly broadcast of Friday 22 May. This
new broadcast was initially reported by Ivo Ivanov with the ID “Radio Vendredi” but its actual on-air name is La Voix de
Djibouti, an opposition broadcast which has been on the air in the past. It is believed to be the same station that was
originally on-air with a short-lived Thursday-only broadcast that started on 7 January 2010 (1530-1630 on 15165 kHz
back then). (Observations by Dave Kenny, Tony Rogers, Ivo Ivanov via BDXC-UK DX News)
The latest broadcast, of 19 June, is on their Facebook page, there is a weekly broadcast on Friday (Radio Vendredi).
They broadcast again on shortwave because the government of Dijibouti has cut the Internet in the country, making
listening difficult. The association La Voix de Djibouti is based in Paris. (Christian Ghibaudo, BDXC-UK DX News)

Ethiopia
The new Oromo broadcast via IRRS has now been identified as Oromiya National Media (ONM). It is
scheduled 1630-1730 on Mon/Wed/Sat on 11995 kHz on the first and third Sunday of the month. Transmitter site not
confirmed but possibly via Bulgaria. The broadcast is in Afar, Somali, French and Arabic. (BDXC-UK DX News)

Guinea
Radio Guinee on 9650 kHz, noted off air for 10 days or more. (Manuel Mendez, BDXC-UK iog, 29 July 2020)

Somalia
Warsan Radio has moved from to 7110 k Hz usb (ex 7750), per Hassan Tubey at the station via WhatsApp.
Confirmed on 7110 via an SDR in New Zealand from tune-in at 1800 UTC on 11 June 2020 with talking and Somali Horn
of Africa music. (Bruce Churchill WOR 11 June via BDXC-UK DX News)

South Sudan

Broadcasts are in Juba Arabic as well as English/Dinka/Nuer/Shilluk/Bari/Zande/Lutoho
(Ivo Ivanov Bulgarian SW Blog 24 July via BDXC-UK DX News)

Western Sahara
National Radio of the SADR on 1550 kHz not heard when checked during evenings in late July 2020,
using several online SDR's in Spain/Western Europe. (Tony Rogers)

Zanzibar
ZBC reactivated on 11735 kHz with low power. Now at 1710 UTC (8 June) I have a station on 11735 kHz
playing African pop music. It is quite weak and so far I haven’t heard an ID. But getting stronger. May be Zanzibar with
reduced power? Heard again on 9 June with drums and times signals at 1800, followed by news in English from 1800-
1810 and then Afro-pops. No ID but must be ZBC (Observations by Harald Kuhl 8-9 June 2020, BDXC-UK iog)

Re: DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale) :: CHINA xHE-AAC codec DRM XYZ - Jul 01 (Wed), 2020 05:23 UTC No.4593
[xHE-AAC] ** Extended High-Efficiency AAC audio codec

Recently, a new type of DRM broadcast has been sent from China. The codec called "xHE-AAC"
is used for that, and demodulation is difficult unless special software is used.
The new type of DRM broadcast still seems to be testing, playing nonstop Chinese music.
And the frequency is changed according to time. (Irregular)

12020kHz → 15630kHz → 15625kHz → 13775kHz → 17660kHz (All ID: 3F9)

** Thanks to Japanese DXer Hirabayasi !
http://naganowakaho.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2020/06/post-1ac10b.html



New DRM software is required to demodulate this broadcast.
** Reference : https://www.reddit.com/r/RTLSDR/comments/grp6m2/dream_v221_for_windows_with_xheaac_support/

It still has a fatal bug, but it can be demodulated.

Re: Radio Nyawa Sarawak new schedule Ron Howard - Apr 12 (Sun), 2020 19:01 UTC No.4431

Radio Nyawa Sarawak's website ( https://www.radionyawasarawak.org/ ) indicates a change in
their scheduling. Last week (April 6 through 10) they had one hour shows (1000-1100 UT), every
day (not just Mon-Wed-Fri). Website now indicates "ISNIN - JUMAAT" (Monday - Friday). There is
audio streaming there of the programs. Seems expanded schedule due to COVID-19 coverage.
Still lists 11890 kHz. as their frequency. Have just emailed the station for confirmation of current
frequency.

Thanks to Ivo Ivanov for the alert (SWLDX Bulgaria News April 12):
https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2020/04/no-signal-of-radio-nyawa-sarawak-from.html ?

Thanks very much to Bruce Churchill, for the following correction:

"Believe Fu Hsing 9410 is on until 1000 on Sundays only per Short Wave Info database…other days until 0900.
I’m trying 9410 now (0640) via Northland Radio in NZ but only the BBC from Pinheira is audible and will be here
until 0800." [April 13]

Appreciate this feedback! So 9410 // 9774 are both 1000* only on Sunday.

May 1, running past 1320+ UT.

May 2 and 3, off the air.

May 6, from 1307+ UT, in English and Pidgin; COVID-19 PSA ("It's about life and death"); many
items about the virus; playing a lot of Pacific Islands pop songs; no audio today from VOI, so no
QRM; SAs for "NBC Radio"; at 1400, heard bits and pieces of the PNG National Radio Song (“In
our land of a thousand tongues, brothers and sisters old and young, unite our hearts so we feel as
one . . . We pledge to stand together as one people, one nation, one country. God bless Papua New
Guinea. You and me now together as one. Sharing our faith, united as one, one country. . . The time

Re: KCBS on 3205 kHz. Ron Howard - May 26 (Tue), 2020 12:16 UTC No.4519
Hi Amano

Thanks again for all your excellent assistance. May 26, also noted KCBS (3205 kHz.) with carrier
and very faint audio from 0957, but as you also noted, was a very brief transmission.

So is N. Korea running test transmissions here?

AUSTRALIA[non-log]. 5055, Radio 4KZ. May 26, checking 0820+, only to find them 
off the?air today. Contacted Al Kirton?(general manager at 4KZ) and here is his
reply:

"There is a problem with the STL [studio transmitter link]. Hopefully fixed in a
few hours. The?studio end is an Italian made?RVR brand 847 MHz 5 watt transmitter.
The transmitter end isan Australian made Fordray receiver. Both are frequency?agile
for the entire UHF band. Theproblem is not with these units. It’s with our crappy
distribution amplifiers at the studio?end.?I turned off the HF transmitter due to
extremely low modulation."

Am always appreciative of Al's quick and informative responses to my emails! ?

BHUTAN. 6035, BBS, on May 26, noted 1117*; while on May 25, off at 1118*. Very poor
reception?both days.
?
CHINA. 5050, Beibu Bay Radio, 1121-1145, May 23. Special segment in both English and
Chinese?about the current session of the?National People's Congress and about COVID-19;
pop song("Evergreen" [also called "Love Theme from A Star Is Born"] by Barbra Streisand);
preempted?regular programs; was a one day only segment.

KOREA NORTH. new frequency of 3205, KCBS. Am always grateful for the insightful comments?
received from Martyn Williams (journalist,?researcher and expert on N. Korea), who has
made the?following helpful observations:

"Interesting that they are apparently off 2850. That's been one of the long-time, long-running?
frequencies.

I see several possibilities:

1) 2850 developed a fault and is temporarily off air. With the Chinese border more or less
closed?right now, it could be a protracted closure?should NK need parts from overseas. If
this is the case,?3205 could be a temporary back-up that are having trouble with or totally
unrelated?to the loss of?2850.

2) 2850 is gone and 3205 is the replacement (but why shift from a long-established frequency
that?was never jammed?)

3) 3205 is a black-ops station and they're running KCBS as filler while they test propagation

It's a bit early to tell, so we keep listening. FWIW, 2850 has appeared weak for months although?
I have not studied it. But every time I tune on?an SDR, the reception has been weak and I did
think that it used to be a lot better. However, you're in a much better place to measure this
as?you listen?regularly from the same spot with the same radio."

MALAYSIA[non-Sarawak]. 9835, Sarawak FM, via Kajang, 0805-0808, May 26. The Islamic?call-to-prayer
for the Asr (afternoon) prayer; not?often that I catch this particular prayer.

May 27 (Wednesday), at 1118, just to prove me wrong, VOP moved from ex 3930, down

Re: PNG - Radio Fly to return to SW? Ron Howard - May 28 (Thu), 2020 02:46 UTC No.4523
Recently saw online that Ok Tedi Mining Limited (Western Province, Papua New
Guinea) has a new managing director/chief executive officer (Musje Werror), so I
thought I should contact him. Portion of my email, after I congratulated him on his
new position:

"I was wondering if any consideration has been given to reactivating Radio Fly, via
shortwave radio? It was operated by Ok Tedi Mining Limited, back when Nigel H.
Parker was the CEO of Ok Tedi Mining Limited (about 2011-2013). From my location
here on the coast of California, I often enjoyed hearing Radio Fly back then. Always
appreciated the service OTML provided to the good people of PNG, by airing
important information via Radio Fly."

Five minutes later received this surprising email from him:

"Hi Ron - Thanks for your email. We plan to revive Radio Fly before the end of the year.
Look forward to receiving your feedback once it is up and running. Regards, Musje"

Sent off a follow up question: "Will you still be via shortwave on 3915 kHz. and 5960 kHz.?"
Imagine that he will not be able to answer that himself, but I hope he will ask the radio engineer
there for more details. Certainly hope that Radio Fly will again be on SW.

In the past was able to hear both frequencies. In 2011, made a recording of one of my
Radio Fly receptions, posted at https://app.box.com/shared/o84cl8b6kt . ?

Re: The Cross Radio (Federated States of Micronesia) will not be returning to SW Ron Howard - May 28 (Thu), 2020 02:50 UTC No.4524
Was time for me to check-in again with Sylvia Kalau (The Cross Radio), at Pacific Mission 
Aviation, over in Pohnpei Federated States of Micronesia. Asked if she had any plans to
reactivate The Cross Radio, via SW. Here is her quick reply to me:

"Hello Ron - Greetings to you from one of the few Covid 19 free countries!! I’m sorry but
we will not be broadcasting SW. The cost is too much for us. Thanks for your inquiry
and understanding."

This is about what I expected to hear from her. No surprise here. Back in May, 2015, the
station was hit by Typhoon Dolphin. Took them awhile to get FM back up again and running,
but getting SW up and running never worked out for them.

Hello! Ron-san
I also checked 3205 kHz today.

KOREA NORTH. 3205, Test tones (Maybe KCBS), 0906-1200, June 1.
Signal start from 0906.
After that, the test tones and signal off / on were repeated.

From 1003, the signal was intermittent and the test tones was repeated.
DPRK-music appeared in 1012 for a moment.
My audio (01:30 : 1011:00-1012:30) at https://radio.chobi.net/bbsasia/img/4536.mp3
I was convinced that it was North Korea at this timing.
From the information received so far, I think it is KCBS.
After 1030, no modulation continued, test tones, and the signal stopped at 1048.

The signal was started again in 1053.
No modulation continues, test tones around 1100.
-1102* Signal off!
*1107-1109* Signal again! and test tones.
*1113-1122* Signal again! and test tones.

This week noted no 11890 kHz. programming on June 1, 2 & 4, during the usual 1100-1200

part of the former Radio Free Sarawak site - https://radiofreesarawak.org/about . Also there
is a "RNS Archive" with some audio streaming from some RNS programs from May (no current
shows).

Radio Nyawa Sarawak is no longer present on Facebook. So a major change has occurred!

0606-0630 UTC: Phone interview in Bislama about sports.

Radio Vanuatu monitoring June 8, with more changes.

11835 harmonic, well heard 0445-0545 UTC; fundamental frequency 3945 and harmonic 7890,
unusable; so RV again didn't use 5040 today.

7890 harmonic, heard 1010+ UTC; ?fundamental frequency 3945 blocked by Japan and harmonic
11835 only with China being heard; so RV didn't use 2485 today for their usual 1000-1100
broadcast.

3945, heard 1101-1104* UTC (after Japan went off the air 1101*); RV went off with instrumental
National Anthem.

Will be interesting to see what their permanent schedule will look like, if they ever decide on one.

June 9 - Arrived at the beach at 0255 UT, before my sunset. Amazed to hear a Radio
Vanuatu signal (unusable) already on the air, on 11835 kHz. (harmonic). My local sunset
was at 0324 UT, which was about four hours before sunset at Port Vila. Some highlights:

0300-0327: Program entirely in French; signal improving a lot by 0324.

0327: Ad in English: "Vanuatu's one-stop Auto Shop . . . Carpenter Motors Vanuatu."

0330-0400: Program in English; playing songs and chatting about music.

0400: News and sports news in English; the Australian High Commission will be providing an
"additional 400 million vatu" for the Vanuatu response to COVIN-19, announced Sarah de Zoeten,
of the AHC, etc.

0410-0430: In English; continued playing pop songs; talking about an upcoming disaster relief
music concert.

0430+: In Bislama.

Re: N. Korea abductions of Japanese Ron Howard - Jun 10 (Wed), 2020 03:43 UTC No.4548

Informative article titled - "Shigeru Yokota, 87, Dies; Fought for Return of Abducted
Daughter" ( http://bit.ly/3farM84 ), which tells the story of his never ending fight to get
his daughter (Megumi Yokota) back from N. Korea after she was kidnapped at 13.

He and his wife, along with other Japanese families of N. Korean abductions formed
the "Association of the Families of Victims Kidnapped by North Korea" (AFVKN), which
also works with the "National Association for the Rescue of Japanese Kidnapped by
North Korea" (NARKN) and they are a coalition based throughout Japan. Their purpose
is for the return to Japan of those persons kidnapped by N. Korea for the purpose of
forcing the abductees to teach N. Korean spies the Japanese language. ?

The "Investigation Commission on Missing Japanese Probably Related to North Korea"
(COMJAN), is the sister organization of NARKN, that produces the daily SW "Shiokaze"
programs.

Another outstanding day!!!

Radio Vanuatu, on June 10 (Wednesday) with an especially readable signal on 11835 (harmonic)
from 0508 to 0729 UT; even though heard in Bislama, was very easy to follow the main points of
what was being said, due to the many English words used. Seems strange to me that I can hear
this second harmonic on a daily basis, with such a good signal. How is this possible? Some highlights:

0508: Weather for the different provinces.

0515+: Program "Inside Sports"; talking about "football."

0600-0630: An educational training "Health" program aired at the same time Mon-Wed-Fri; ended
with several phone numbers to call with questions or to email in.

0659: The usual ad in English - "Vanuatu's one-stop Auto Shop . . . Carpenter Motors Vanuatu."

0700-0723: News and sports news (interview with head coach of the "Golden Star" football team, etc.).

0724+: The usual call-in program, today with discussion about "COVID-19 Social Distancing."

Radio Nyawa Sarawak (ex 11890 kHz.) is no longer on SW and no longer an separate
organization.

Now it has reverted back to being "Radio Free Sarawak" (RFS) and is only available
online and via WhatsApp links.
?
On June 15, I checked 11890, for what their website indicated would be their reactivation,
but was clearly absent. Now the website has been completely updated and re-designed.
No longer any reference to SW, but instead has new RFS programs via audio streaming.
Now only IDing as RFS. "Tune in online at - radiofreesarawak.org - and distribute
links via smartphone." https://radiofreesarawak.org/ .

The first time I ever heard RFS on SW was back in April, 2011, when they were via Koror-Palau,
on 15420 kHz. Certainly I will miss catching them on SW!

Thank you, Komatsubara, for your kind birthday wishes! Ron

Here on the California coast, I'm daily having fair to good reception of Radio Vanuatu's?
third harmonic on 11835 (3 x 3945 kHz.). Heard daily with?very consistent reception,?
making for the most enjoyable listening. Am spending a considerable amount of time
monitoring this, as one never knows?when the transmitter might be adjusted to eliminate?
this strong harmonic. Am providing this detailed report in the hope that it will motivate?
others to?attempt to hear this interesting station and if unable to actually hear the local?
programming, one might still be able to catch their wonderful island?music. Virtually all
the programs this week were in Bislama, except where noted otherwise. Frequent SAs?for
"Radio Vanuatu, Vois Blong Yumi." ? ?

June 17 - Radio Vanuatu, unlike yesterday's coverage of parliament, today there was none;?
listening from 0511 to 0730; strangely CNR2 was off the air today, but instead heard three?
very brief segments with FireDragon music jamming underneath RV; very unusual. A few?highlights:

0545-0600: Song "Happy Birthday," sung in English, followed by birthday dedications.

0600-0630: Listeners calling in with dedications; playing pop songs in English (Whitney?Houston
- "I Will Always Love You," Tina Turner - "It Takes Two,"?etc.). My audio at?http://bit.ly/3fCEZGW .

0630-0635: Message to any persons with interests in the administered property of the late?Robert . . .
of Port Vila; given in both Bislama and French.

0635+: Pop Pacific Islands music.

0700: SA and time ("six o'clock"); "Welcome to Radio Vanuatu's National News Hour"; many?items about
parliament and 40th anniversary of independence.

June 18 - From 0504 to 0525, nice Pacific Islands pop songs during a break from parliament?(My audio at http://bit.ly/3fLG0g0 ); 0525+, live coverage of the?many speakers in parliament.?Today light CNR2 QRM
was back again.

June 19 - From 0418 to 0530. Pop song (Eagles - "Hotel California," etc.); 0432-0501, parliament?
"called to order" and series of many short speeches, till 0501,?when gavel sounded for parliament?
to take a break (my audio at http://bit.ly/3dnI5Ni ); 0505, "5 after 4," weather report followed
by DJ?with music program;?wished everyone a "happy Port Vila Day . . . ?enjoy the weekend" (My audio?
at http://bit.ly/30ZRJU1 ). ? ? ? ?
?
June 20 (Saturday) - From 0420 to 0620; almost no China QRM:

0420-0456: "Voice of Province(?) program, Radio Vanuatu," which is broadcast Mon/Sat, followed by
pop Pacific Islands music. My audio at http://bit.ly/3dmylmC . ?

0530-0600: Program "Inside Sports," with a long phone interview about "football"; have heard this?
program several times in the past, so is a regular show.

0600+: "Young person's program"; have heard this program several times in the past, so a regular?show.

June 21 (Sunday) - Mostly religious (Christian) programs from 0308-0408 & 0500-0630, with?summertime
QRN (static):

0308-0330: Preaching the "word of God," in English.

0330-0400: Religious songs ("In The Sweet By-and-By," etc.)

0500-0530: Eclectic selection of songs (Genesis [Phil Collins] - "Invisible Touch," Mac Davis -?
"Stop And Smell The Roses," and Pacific Island pop songs)

0530-0557: Religious program in Bislama, with many words in English; Bible stories for children?
(Herod's daughter, Salome and John the Baptist).?My audio at http://bit.ly/314p53W .

0600: Program about sexual abuse and domestic violence. ?

the National Anthem till 1107 and stayed on the air after that; non-stop music; the usual RV
signature song ("You Are The Only One," by the Black Brothers) at 1119, 1136 and 1148,
plus at 1300, 1312 and 1329. My local sunrise was at 1249 UT, so the 1300+ reception was

KOREA SOUTH. Voice of Freedom, on June 22, noted on 5920, from 0954 through 1331,
heard with only a strong carrier (no audio). Komatsubara Hiroyuki ("Now On The Radio DX")
also noted no modulation later at 2315 (June 22). ?

June 23 - VOF, first day on a new frequency of 6045 (ex: 5920); at 1000, with program “Aneun
geos-i him-ida” (Knowing is power), with theme song “See Ya,“ sung by Atomic Kitten; fair.

June 22 (Monday) observed frequencies:

VOP: 3480 // 3910 // 3925 (Japan QRM) // 4450 // 6520 // 6600, at 0951.

VOH: only 3985 // 5995 // 6350, at 0946; late starting with these additional frequencies
4880 // 6245 // 9095, at 1003.

Interesting to note that on June 22, Komatsubara Hiroyuki ("Now On The Radio DX") was
the first one to note CNR1 on the new frequency of 6255. Perhaps in error?

June 23, I also noted CNR1 on 6255, at 1012. Rather a strange frequency, as Sound of Hope
(Taiwan) on 6215 // 6230 // 6280, were not jammed today by CNR1. So why 6255?

Hallo! Ron-san and Komathubara

Thank you for VOF's QSY information.
I confirmed it, too.

VOF on 6045 kHz, with program "Maeil geudaewa“
(Everyday with you) was being broadcast after 1230 when I started checking.
North Korean pip Jamming started from 1244.
In my location, pip jamming was strong and it became very difficult to hear VOF programs.
At 1300, with program “Aneungeos-i him-ida” (Knowing is power) started.
My audio at https://radio.chobi.net/DX/bbs/img/4572.mp3 .
Pip jamming from North Korea was quick after the VOF move.

Hi Amano - Wonder if you were hearing the start of the N. Korea jamming for?Shiokaze
that was about to start on 6040 kHz. (1300-1400 UT)?

Would be?very unusual for N. Korea jamming to actually find the new VOF frequency on

I forgot that there is a "Shiokaze" on 6040 kHz.
I received North Korean pip jamming on 6040 kHz side.
Certainly, it is rare for North Korea to detect QSY quickly.
Thank you for telling me.

I checked 6045 kHz again.

Hallo! Ron-san, Komathubara and Philby

KOREA SOUTH. 6045, Voice of Freedom, 1059 - UTC, on June 24.
1059’45“ - 1100 UTC, VOF’s singing station jingle (female version) - "jinsil-e soli, huimang-e soli, jayu-e soli bangsong!";
1100 - UTC, followed by program "Haengboghan Daehanmingug" (Happy Republic of Korea);
no N. Korean pip jamming, but it’s a little affected about the splash of NK super jamming on 6015 kHz  
in the location here.

Dear Mr.Ron Howard
Also I am struggling to check the pros of VOF.
Even here in Japan, it seems a little difficult to catch the signal enough to enjoy
the program contents.

Since it comes with deep and long term fading and sometimes with NK origin
jammers.

Now it's 4:30 JST and I am enjoying the programs on 6045kHz.
I dare say that the condx of today seems better one, but not the best.
Signal itself is not strong enough and fading comes with deep and long term.

The female and the male announcer talks on traveling in South Korea.

The other day, I found that with Kiwi SDR com. public, I could catch the signal
very strong and even enjoy the contents of the programs - please check it with
Japanese DXer -

0-30 MHZ SDR, JP7FSO, FUKUSHIMA, JAPAN
http://jp7fso.proxy.kiwisdr.com:8073

His facilities are very nice - he built the antennas on the hill and they give us
wonderful listening condx.

It might be wrong to introduce things like this, but I don't hesitate to tell my
good experience on Dxing.

I hope you will have a nice catch !

Hi Pasar,

Thank you for your message. Appreciate hearing from you, with your suggestion.

All of my DXing is done while sitting in my car at Asilomar State Beach. I very much like
my hands-on approach to listening and have no desire for listening via a remote receiver.
In all my years of DXing (50), I have never used a remote radio. For me, the thrill is to
catch the SW signals here in California. That is the challenge! I know many people enjoy
listening via remote sites, but it is just not my cup of tea :))

Also I have no Internet access at the beach.

Thanks again for thinking of me. Appreciate the thought!

Best regards,

Ron

Re: CNR17 - Language lessons in Russian and English Ron Howard - Jul 04 (Sat), 2020 15:36 UTC No.4603
CHINA. 9630 // 11630, CNR17, at 1220 UTC, on June 27 (Saturday). Start of their 
Russian language lesson; series of repeating words; rather poor due to aggravating
background whistling and light music throughout the lesson; this station is usually only
in the Kazakh language; timing varies, as on June 28, Russian lesson started at 1230
(again with the whistling in the background), till music at 1248; reception started poor
and steadily improved up to fair by 1300. ?

CHINA. 9630, CNR17, on July 4 (Saturday), from 1228 to 1301 UTC. Language lesson
in English; is easy to tell when they are having a language lesson here (whether Russian
or English), as there is distinctive whistling and humming in the background, which makes
it rather difficult to clearly understand all the words. Do not know what their schedule is for
these lessons, but I believe they are not carried every day. My audio at http://bit.ly/3eZ78b7 .
My local sunrise was at 1254 UTC.

CHINA. 6255, CNR1, at 1138, on July 6. Very strong signal; still unknown as to why they
are here? Sound of Hope (Taiwan) was clear of any jamming on 6215 // 6230 // 6280.

KOREA NORTH/SOUTH. 6045, Voice of Freedom, on 1119+, on July 6. Totally blocked by
super strong white noise jamming from N. Korea. The former enjoyable reception of VOF
has come to an end for the time being!

July 6 (Monday) anomaly for VOP and VOH, as only one frequency changed from last
Monday:

Voice of the People: 3475 (this is the only change today; noted with good reception!)
// 3905 (ham QRM) // 3930 // 4450 // 6520 (continues to be unusually good - not jammed)
// 6600, at 1117.

Echo of Hope - VOH: 3980 // 4885 // 5990 // 6250 // 6348 // 9100, at 1114. All the same
frequencies as last Monday.

KCBS (N. Korea) silent on 2850, 3205 and 3250, at 1120. Still looking for a new frequency?

VANUATU. 3945, R. Vanuatu, on July 6, with random checks at 1136, 1203, 1211 and 1305.
At these times, heard the usual "You Are The Only One" song; continues to be heard daily
well past their former 1104*.

VIETNAM. 6165, VOV4 (the radio division for ethnic minorities), 1204-1300, on July 6.
Very rare reception! Normally the frequency is totally covered by the good signal of CNR6,
which was off the air today; no trace of any signal here from Myanmar; playing indigenous
music, with chanting/singing; language Vietnamese or similar; weak signal, but definitely
them. Needs more monitoring to find out if the CNR6 absence is for more than just a day?

6165 kHz. - On July 13, interesting developments here; yesterday had definite CNR6 here 
(// 9420) on the air again after being silent for about six day; today surprised to find CNR6
was again absent; heard VOV4 from 1215 to 1315; in Vietnamese or dialect and with unique
indigenous chanting; only a few brief minutes when I thought I heard an extremely weak
Myanmar underneath, but not a negative factor to VOV4 reception, which was better than
usual. Nice to hear this unique station broadcasting to their ethnic minorities. My audio of
chanting at http://bit.ly/30bkzyu .

Re: India - AIR Aizawl reactivated on 5050 kHz. Ron Howard - Jan 03 (Fri), 2020 13:00 UTC No.4295
INDIA. 5050, AIR Aizawl, Jan 3. Exciting news for the New Year! Today had positive reception 
of this station that had been off the air for several years; yesterday had a faint hint that another
station might be here besides the usual Beibu Bay Radio, so monitored this frequency again
today; 1120-1127, prominent test tone; went off for a minute till start of the distinctive AIR IS;
1130-1135, possibly news in Hindi(?); then at 1135 could make out, "This is All India Radio with
the news read by . ."; items not very readable due to BBR QRM; 1140, "and that was the end of
the news bulletin." Wonderful to have this station active again!

Tomorrow they will increase the power some more. 7295 kHz is also on air.

Sorry, I should have said the UNID was about the same signal strength as SOH. Was clearly not CNR1 jamming. I check almost daily on 6215, 6230 and 6280 and don't often find any CNR1 jamming there, which of course is many times stronger than the SOH signals. The UNID sounded similar to SOH programming, but was certainly not //, as it normally is. Nor was it just out of sync with 6215 and 6230, but had completely different program timing. A mystery :)

Hello! Ron-san and Komatsubara.

Ron-san
That's really interesting.
I listened to the recording of Ron-san and thought so.
How you hear depends on the location.

1400 UTC - I can't hear anything.
I can't confirm my career.

Akita, Japan. Komatsubara.

Can you confirm VOF on 5920kHz this time?
I cannot be confirmed in Saitama, Japan.

The program name of this audio is as follows.
Program ID is between 01:00 - 01:02.

Korean : “?? ??? ??????“
Korean reading : “Maeil geudaewa Gim Suhui ibnida“
In English : “I’m with you every day. I am Kim Soo Hee“
In Japanese : “毎日あなたと キム・スヒです“

MYANMAR. 5985, Myanmar Radio. On Feb 11, with very respectable signal and fairly readable;
interesting programs for the segment in English (1530-1558).

1530-1543: News (a visitor from Singapore was confined to a hospital for observation regarding
the novel coronavirus, but was released when found to be clear of the virus, etc.).

1543: Weather and "Myanmar Radio" SA (my audio at http://bit.ly/2SAFebJ).

1547: Youngsters singing the "Peace" song (my audio at http://bit.ly/2Hr9bG5).

1550: Public Service Announcement about the novel coronavirus and info from WHO (My audio
at http://bit.ly/2wc0NI9).

1554: Very nice promo for World Radio Day (upcoming on Feb 13); into "Voice of ASEAN, Beyond
Boundaries" program (My audio at http://bit.ly/2HdI8Ob). ?

Found the following info on-line, with very positive comments about the use of radio (my emphasis):

"This new ASEAN in Action (AiA) spin-off project aims to sustain as well as strengthen the knowledge
of ASEAN in the target areas. It is the re-branding of the twenty year old AiA radio project produced
and broadcast by the radio station of all the ASEAN Member States (AMS) but with enhanced features.
Taking into consideration that radio is the most efficient media, it has a strategic and vast potential
in helping the overall development of each of the AMS. Thus, by means of combining traditional and new
media in enhancing the project, radio can play a more active and constructive role in promoting the goals
of ASEAN and continue promoting greater awareness and understanding among the people of ASEAN
and beyond. Entitled “Voice of ASEAN ? Beyond Boundaries” (VoA-BB), this spin-off project will comprise
the annual production of one infotainment radio programme each by all ten ASEAN member states (AMS)
of 15 ? 30 minute duration focusing on the 18 ? 30 year age group for broadcast first in its own country
then exchanged for broadcast in the other AMS to enhance awareness about ASEAN among ASEAN
citizens and beyond ASEAN boundaries. Radio is again the chosen medium of this project because it
is still generally considered fast, cheap and easily accessible mean to disseminate information to
the people."

February 13 - World Radio Day. Good news that R. Vanuatu is back on the air today, after being

during English segment. Ron

INDONESIA. 3325 (via Palangkaraya) // 4749.95 (via Cimanggis/Jakarta), Voice of Indonesia.
Thanks very much to David Foster's posting to WOR iog "The 4750 transmitter was moved from
Makassar to Cimanggis." Feb 13, from 1108 to past 1326+. From 1108 till 1205*, NBC Bougainville
(3325) mixing with about equal strength to VOI's signal; as mess; after 1205, VOI on 3325 was in the
clear in Japanese. Today with the greatly improved signal, was able to tell VOI was actually about
4749.95, matching the former frequency of the Makassar transmitter now at Cimanggis. After 1300,
the English segment was well heard on 3325; news and "Today's Commentary"; "Today In History"
(this date in 1955, Israel acquired four of the seven Dead Sea Scrolls through a private sale; this date
1960, first French nuclear test of an atomic bomb; etc.). Outstanding reception. Fairly readable!

Re: Vanuatu Ron Howard - Feb 14 (Fri), 2020 21:06 UTC No.4340
Radio Vanuatu (5040) was off the air Feb 10-11-12, which was unusual for them. A possible explanation
might be that tropical cyclone Uesi was nearby - http://bit.ly/31VP2kT.

Feb 14 - heard RV on 5040 with decent reception (1002-1059:49*); news in vernacular (items about
"candidates" [Vanuatu general elections to be held March 19], "cyclone Uesi . . . weather forecast", etc.);
1028-1044, preaching in vernacular; 1044+, religious songs till SA and NA.

Didn't think I could hear 7260 kHz. at closing, but I was wrong. Heard them Feb 15, from 0610 till
sign off at 0630* UTC. Many nice SAs for "Radio Vanuatu" and also "Radio Vanuatu, Vois Blong

jamming that had been assigned to block VOF??Up to Dec 19, both VOF and strong N. Korea noise jamming?
had been on 6045 together; then on Dec 19, VOF moved down to?5920 to get away from the jamming. For?some
reason the jamming remained on 6045 for a long time; then on Feb 14, the?jamming was finally gone?from
6045, but didn't move down to 5920 to block VOF, instead showed up on 6135 (a former?frequency they?once
jammed for a long time even though there was no station there to be jammed) and I believe there is no
station there now to be jammed. Strange! Today (Feb 17) the strong noise jamming is still on 6135 (was?
silent yesterday,?along with all the other N. Korea jamming, due to their national holiday). It seems
N. Korea?is oblivious to the obvious fact?that VOF is on 5920 (a well known former VOF frequency!).
Of course I'm not?complaining! Is wonderful to enjoy good?reception of VOF, with no jamming.

Nice catch! Ron-san.

Your audio is very clear and great sound.
It sounds like a local broadcasting station.

The opening theme song for VOF program “Aneun geos-i him-ida” is “See Ya“ song by Atomic Kitten.
https://youtu.be/-k_IBtSmtNk

Your audio, the first song of the “Aneun geos-i him-ida” program is “The Story Of The Sky, The Sea, The Trees, The Stars“ song by Kwang Ho Cho.
https://youtu.be/G0-RNrshYw0

01:47-01:52 The program announcer is introducing the first song.
Korean : 「???? ?????. ??, ??, ??, ?? ???.」
Korean reading : “Jogwan-U ga nolaehabnida, Haneul, Bada, Namu, Byeol-e Iyagi.“
In English : “Kwang Ho Cho sings, it’s called The Story Of The Sky, The Sea, The Trees, The Stars.“

Hi Wolfie - Thanks for the new info. Yes, did notice some of the changes today (March 1). Ron

VANUATU. R. Vanuatu. As Rob Wagner and I have been noticing recently, RV is still getting
adjusted to their new transmitter and experimenting with their schedule. March 1, found 7260
was off the air when checking 0618-0700; whereas yesterday RV was here with an extended
broadcast thru 0659*.

March 1 (Sunday), did observe RV on 3945 kHz., *0700-0959*; long segments of chatting in
vernacular; usual religious segments of preaching in vernacular and religious songs (sounded
like Gaither Vocal Band - "Yes, I Know," etc.); doing fairly well on this frequency. As it was
Sunday, Japan was off the air here. My audio with one minute of "Yes, I Know" and four
minutes of preaching and ending with music, at ?http://bit.ly/389IMan.

From 1000-1005, checked 5040 and 7260 for any sign of RV, but clearly not there.

On 2485 kHz., tentatively did find RV, from 1037 till cut off at 1059*. The usual religious segments
of preaching and religious songs. Language and format sounded right to be RV, so am confident it
was them, but didn't catch a positive ID, as I would have liked to hear. ?

Re: Radio Vanuatu, problem with audio on 2485 kHz. Ron Howard - Mar 10 (Tue), 2020 00:39 UTC No.4380
March 9, noted R. Vanuatu on 3945 kHz., randomly from 0725, till blocked by strong R. Nikkei 2 (Japan)?starting at *0950. Long segments of interviews in vernacular; played some Pacific Islands music; normal?audio. Assume 3945 closed down about 1000, but unable to confirm.

RV moved down to 2485 kHz., with transmitter on at *1000, when some faint audio was heard; rechecking?1037 till off at 1059:46* UTC, had decent carrier, but virtually no audio; they had lost almost all of their?modulation, unlike my recent very decent March 5 reception which had good audio. Was able to make out?SA (assumed) and clear NA just before 1059:46*, but this was nothing like their normal decent level of?reception. Hope this is just a temporary problem!

Mauno Ritola: Today {March 8} I heard them on 3945 kHz, but nothing now at 1020 on either 2485 or 3945 kHz.

KOREA SOUTH. 7590, Free North Korea Radio, via Tashkent, tuned in at 1301, March 16.
Positive reception here, as it corresponded to this audio streaming (first 10 minutes of their
one hour broadcast) taken for their website - http://bit.ly/3aW0BLS . This station is funded in

AUSTRALIA. 5055, Radio 4KZ, on March 19, cut off at 1101:52* UT. March 23, noted 1055-1101:36*,
so going off about four seconds earlier every day; signal strong enough to be able to easily ID the pop
song (Paul Young - "Every Time You Go Away"); cut off during the news ("Thousand of jobs lost," etc.).

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, 0858-1004 & 1027-1040 UT, March 23. Reception above the
norm; weather forecast; 0901, NBC news; all items dealing with Coronavirus/COVID-19, except for item
about the supreme court considering case about the constitution; promos for NBC TV; segments with pop
songs (Elton John - "Sacrifice," USA for Africa - "We Are The World," Michael Jackson - "Heal The World,"
etc.); many segments about ?Coronavirus/COVID-19 (schools suspended, etc.). Very enjoyable to hear them
at this decent level. Later at 1117, was only hearing Voice of Indonesia, with no NBC underneath (early off?).

CHINA. 3303-USB, Zhoushan Marine Meteorological Radio Station, 1109-1116 UT, March 23. Now that I have
started to again check this frequency, am hearing them daily with almost fair reception.

4940, Voice of Strait, 0945-0955 UT, Saturday, March 21. Weekend "Focus on China" with panel of experts
answering questions about Coronavirus/COVID-19; QRM from OTH radar, but still readable. ?

6185, China Huayi Broadcast Co. (presumed), 0924-0954 UT, March 20. Non-stop pop songs in English (Ricky
Martin - "Go Go Go Ale Ale Ale," etc.), with one brief announcer in Chinese; *0954, hit with strong VOK start
up, totally blocking CHBC.

6200-USB, VC01, Chinese military numbers station, 1132 UT, March 23. First day here; mixing with Tibet on
frequency. Seems to me rather a strange frequency to choice, as this is a long standing frequency of Tibet
and surely there are better frequencies? My audio at http://bit.ly/2Usions .

INDIA. 5040, AIR Jeypore, 1217+ UT, March 21, 22, 23. Back on the air again after a brief absence.

only hearing Wai FM on 11665. ?

TAIWAN. 6215, Sound of Hope, 1103+ UT, March 22-23. Unusual to only find an open carrier here; both 6230

VANUATU[non-log]. R. Vanuatu. From 0930+ UT, thru March 23. Am still unable to hear RV on any of their

May 7, heard NBC Bougainville (3325), from 1201 till tuned out at 1410 UT; continuing with announced
"special broadcast of NBC"; running well past their normal cut off time (1200*); SAs "This is NBC";
announcers in both Pidgin and English; a health PSA in English with dietary info about vitamins, etc.;
DJ in Pidgin played a lot of Pacific Islands pop songs; ads (various data plans for a mobile phone
service, etc.); 1401 the usual PNG National Radio Song; mostly fair to poor. Wonderful to find them
on the air for such a long time, especially as reception is helped by my local sunrise.

Re: Bangladesh - Bougainville - Vanuatu Ron Howard - May 21 (Thu), 2020 17:12 UTC No.4504
BANGLADESH. 4750, Bangladesh Betar - Home Service, from 1240 to 1243 UT, on May 21,
call-to-prayer for the Maghrib prayer, which was just after their local sunset; unusual anomaly
here, as there was no audio QRM from either CNR1 nor VOI; did hear a significant open carrier
from assume CNR1 (or VOI?), but no trace of audio, so was only hearing BB in the clear, which
is rare! Still running their Home Service during Ramadan. Will they change back to External
Service once that ends? Cyclone Amphan has mostly hit the coastal areas of Bangladesh, so
happy to find BB still on the air.

BTW - At 1233, on May 11, was checking for the Monday only SAARC (The South Asian Association
for Regional Cooperation) news bulletin in English, that was formerly noted on the HS from 1235 to
1243, but clearly not being carried; probably due to it being preempted during Ramadan; but instead
heard 1236-1239 with the Maghrib Islamic call-to-prayer; doing well against CNR1 QRM. ? ?

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, 1015-1130 and still on the air 1328+ UT, on May 21.
Preempted regular programs to provide mostly non-stop COVID-19 coverage in Pidgin (speeches,
PSAs, etc.); one pop song (Nazareth - "Love Hurts"); well above normal reception and fairly readable;
no VOI QRM; still continuing with extended COVID-19 coverage well past the normal 1200*.

VANUATU. 11835 (harmonic), R. Vanuatu, 0709 UT, on May 19. Stronger than China on frequency;
news in vernacular (COVID-19 government subsidies to private schools, etc.); 0714, sports news
(sound bites from the Minister for Youth Sports Development, Willie Pakoa Satearoto, etc.); 0716,

KOREA SOUTH. 4885, Echo of Hope - VOH, 1341, Aug 6. Language lesson ("Easy

My clear audio at http://bit.ly/33dORBu .

LAOS. 6130, Lao National Radio, 1401, Aug 6. No longer on their recently heard abbreviated

their schedule); 1407, break for some indigenous singing; strong adjacent QRM; much of the
time was unusable; at 1434, unable to confirm in French, but definitely broadcasting.

PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 3260, NBC Madang, 1204-1211* on Aug 6; in English; cut off in mid-
sentence.

TAIWAN. 6230, Sound of Hope, at 1300, on Aug 6 and listening in LSB to get away from Australia
weather station in USB. The usual OM & YL with "Xiwang zhi sheng guoji guangbo diantai" (Sound
of Hope international broadcast station) ID (thanks again to Amano-san's assistance); surprised to
have some very light QRM from Australia, as some of their faint audio showed up in LSB.

VIETNAM. 8812-USB, Ho Chi Minh Radio - Vietnam Coast Station, on Aug 6, *1240-1242* in
Vietnamese and *1242-1244* in English; starts with "Weather information for South China coastal

heard a hum (no English audio) and at 1325, still only hum (no Nepali audio); of course
CNR1 was also there. First time I have heard this BB anomaly.

KOREA SOUTH. 4885, Echo of Hope - VOH, 1340, Aug 8. Language lesson ("Easy

"happy Isaac." I was wrong, this program was no broadcast at 1140 nor 1240, so a new
schedule for this podcast.

MYANMAR. 5985, Myanmar Radio, 1300-1310, Aug 7 (Wednesday). Two programs

Wed. & Fri.?

VIETNAM. 8812-USB, assume a VISHIPEL coastal station (site?); *1314-1320*, on Aug 8.

CHINA. 6035, FM99 (Voice of Shangri-la) relay via PBS Yunnan. On Aug 23, first noted BBS
(Bhutan) cutting off in mid-sentence (English) at 1135*; then *1139, suddenly on, in progress
with FM99 programs; at *1144 the start of the N. Korea jamming spur from 6045.

7210, PBS Yunnan, 1046, Aug 23. The usual IS (long playing loop of EZL music); unusual good
with no QRM; 1100, into programming. My clear audio at http://bit.ly/2HqOgTS . Aug 26, at 1058,
heard PBS IS, but today with heavy Sound of Hope QRM on frequency.

INDIA. 5040, AIR Jeypore, 1330-1345, Aug 25. Another day of special live coverage in English

into the news in Hindi.

KOREA SOUTH. 4885, Echo of Hope - VOH, "Easy English," "podcast" on Aug 25, at 1347; the usual
strong signal, resulting in good reception. My audio at http://bit.ly/2zpF2Tf .

MONGOLIA. 7260, Mongolian Radio P3 (presume FM100.9 relay). On Aug 25, with decent signal, but

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville. Aug 25 & 26, not heard from 1100+; back on

"Heaven Is A Place On Earth," etc.); on 28th, cut off at 1201*.

CHINA. 6035, FM99 (Voice of Shangri-la) relay via PBS Yunnan. On Aug 27, with anomaly;
noted they had a problem with the usual FM99 audio feed, but instead was running non-stop
western classical music for quite awhile; noted several times before and shortly after 1200;
very enjoyable; by 1213, back to normal FM99 audio feed; no QRM of any kind (no BBS and
no N. Korea jamming spur). My audio at http://bit.ly/2ZrX9qx .

KOREA SOUTH. 4885, Echo of Hope - VOH. Seems to be changing their schedule a lot these
days. Not long ago the 1240-1300 time slot was for the language lesson "Easy English," but that
was re-scheduled to different times. Checking Aug 27 & 28, heard a rather different program 1240+;
programming was unique in that it consisted of an audio of non-stop English, but was rather weak,
underneath a much stronger audio in Korean, with a running translation of the underlying English.
Perhaps a lecture? First time I have heard this, after almost daily monitoring. At 1300, the usual
"Onule Soshi" (Today's News). My audio at http://bit.ly/2MHgOg4 , with two minutes of the double
audio and one of "Onule Soshi."

VIETNAM [non]. 9670, Radio Dap Loi Song Nui (Vietnam Democracy Radio) (presumed), Aug 28,

Re: 4885 kHz. with new SA Ron Howard - Sep 03 (Tue), 2019 20:59 UTC No.4077
Hi Amano,

Have you heard what is happening on 4885 kHz.? Seems to be some major changes.
Sept 3, from 1113 to 1335; no longer with the former distinctive "V O H" SAs; no
longer hearing the "Easy English" language lesson. 9100 noted off the air today,
otherwise // 3985 // 5995 // 6250 (much of the time also hearing Echo of Unification)
and // 6350; poor overall conditions today; most days I have much better reception.

Some highlights of today's reception:

1130-1200: Now with a unique language lesson that seems like more than 95% in
Korean and maybe less than 5% in English (nothing like "Easy English" format);
occasional brief spots in English during the half hour program, with all the English
put together again towards the end of the show. Have heard this for several days now.

1200-1210: Drama

1219: song - ABBA - "The Winner Takes It All"; all the other songs were in Korean.

1241-1250: Unique program with audio in English (weak), with stronger audio on top of
that in Korean, with running translation of the English underneath. Ends with audience
clapping, so perhaps a lecture or same type of presentation? Have heard this now for
several days.

1300-1313: Usual news program in Korean.

Amano - Can you hear what the new SA is? Thank you so very much!

Hi Amano,

Thank you very much for your kind assistance. During my monitoring, I have not
recently heard the "V O H" SA. Normally at 15 minutes after the hour, at the end
of the news, I would hear the SA, but have not heard any VOH SA. Are they just
not giving the VOH SA as often as before?

As always, appreciate your comments and observations.

heard today was Burmese; played easy-listening pop songs. So is this ex: 6165 kHz.? Today I
didn't start listening till fairly late, so this needs some earlier monitoring to find out just what is

not heard on SW for several years. I last reported hearing it back on Sept 6, 2017.

Today, 1400-1409 UT, with news and commentary in Bahasa Indonesia; followed by the
distinctive patriotic song "Garuda Pancasila" (aka: "Mars Pancasila"), which was
composed by Sudharnoto, with lyrics about the loyalty of all Indonesian people to
Pancasila as the only ideology or philosophy of the Indonesian nation. Am very

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, on Sept 10, with major anomaly. During a time
when they should have been broadcasting (around 1130), they were clearly off the air for
quite awhile, but did hear them later, running several hours past their normal cut off
time (1200). Today heard 1158-1430+; "NBC News," 1203-1209 and "NBC News Roundup,"
1301-1307, both in English; no news at 1400; played mostly variety of pop songs (Diana
Ross & Lionel Richie - "Endless Love," etc.); after 1209, relay of programs in English
from Port Moresby, with numerous SAs for "This is NBC"; no Voice of Indonesia QRM.
Has been about three years since I last heard a "NBC News Roundup" segment!

Re: NBC Bougainville (3325 kHz.) anomaly Ron Howard - Sep 11 (Wed), 2019 14:06 UTC No.4087
Sept 11 - A second day with a greatly extended NBC Bougainville broadcast on 3325 kHz., so perhaps
a new schedule? Unlike yesterday's reception free from Voice of Indonesia QRM, today with significant
VOI audio, making a mess of this frequency; both stations mostly unusable; checking 1217-1302 UTC;
again with "NBC News Roundup" at 1302.

This change is not totally unexpected. It will be recalled that this November will see the important
referendum vote to be taken to determine the possible independence of Bougainville. We can expect
this station to be a key means of disseminating information about the election. SW is especially alive
at election time!

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville (Maus Blong Sankamap - Voice of the Sunrise),
1015-1050, Sept 25. Almost all the programs dealing with the upcoming referendum; back
on the air after being briefly silent for a few days.

MYANMAR. RE: WOR 2001 - Myanmar Radio - Glenn wondered if 5985 & 9730, where via
the same transmitter? Once I had assumed they were, as their sign off and sign on times
seemed to indicate that, but not so. A good number of times now I have noted them BOTH
on the air at the same time (overlapping), so definitely two separate transmitters.? ??

PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 3260, NBC Madang (Maus Blong Garamut), 1211*, Sept 25; usual
format.

7325, Wantok Radio Light (presumed), 1257-1258, Sept 27. Thanks to Hiroyuki Komatsubara
(Japan) for his alert; during CRI's brief break, heard a definite weak carrier here, but unable to
make out any audio. Assume low power?

SOLOMON ISLANDS. 9545, SIBC, 0449 till cut off at 0459*, Sept 26. Finally strong enough to
be able to ID one of their songs, with distinctive "Shallow," by Lady Gaga & Bradley Cooper; cut
off time is via timer (always the same time) (Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA)

U S A. 7570, WRMI, 1258, Sept 25. Good signal; Supreme Master TV audio; about the relief
efforts for the Bangladesh fire ("may Allah bless you"); reception killed by *1300, of very strong
VOA (Thailand).?

VIETNAM. 7155.0, VOV, on Sept 27, heard an interesting situation here at 1304. Clearly TWO
stations mixing together; one stronger signal in Chinese (// 7220) and a much weaker underneath
(// 7285); first time I have heard them both together. Thanks very much to Glenn, who last year
pointed out: "7285 at 1300-1330 in French, 7220 at same time in Chinese: 7285 leapfrog over
7220 another 65 kHz below lands on 7155."

UNIDENTIFIED. 4990-USB, 0410, Sept 26. American fishermen chatting; sounded like conversation
between fishing boats; first time I have ever heard anything like this here. Probably just off the coast
of Calif., as Monterey Bay and other coastal areas have fishing fleets.

There will be a 90-minute grand evening gala and fireworks show, held at Tiananmen Square.?Scheduled to start at 1200 UTC and?certainly expect some SW coverage.

Re: N. Korea jamming of Shiokaze Ron Howard - Oct 02 (Wed), 2019 14:50 UTC No.4123
KOREA NORTH. Oct 2, with the jamming of Shiokaze:

5980, fast, pulsating noise jamming long before Shiokaze started at *1300.

6070, jamming anomaly; from *1300 to 1306*, with the programming of KCBS Pyongyang
(// 3320 // 6400); then leaving Shiokaze in the clear for about a minute; *1307, start of a slower,
pulsating noise jamming (seemed slower rate than 5980).

My audio, with one minute of faster jamming (5980) and one of the slower jamming (6070),
at http://bit.ly/2pi1hZv .

BTW - Myanmar Radio (5985), on Oct 2 (Wednesday), had mostly unusable reception (1246-1256)
of the usually well heard "Learning English with BBC, Burmese." This due to strong jamming of pre-
Shiokaze on 5980 and also the fairly strong adjacent QRM from the new frequency for Echo of Hope -
VOH on 5990.

BOUGAINVILLE/PNG [both non-logs]. 3325, NBC Bougainville, 1039+, Oct 4.?Clearly off the air today. A very unusual day, as NBC Madang (3260) was also?silent, so no NBC stations at all.

Due to this rather rare double silence, went online to find out what was happening.?Found the following probable explanation for their absence:

"PNG Power will be conducting major load shedding and disconnection exercises?throughout the country this week."

The Oct 2 info is at http://bit.ly/2InAl16 ?and specifically mentions "Buka" (Bougainville),?as being affected, plus "conducting major disconnection exercise in our cities and towns?throughout the country as of this week."

Just back from a cruise from San Francisco, up to Oregon/Washington/Canada. Now back at the dials again!

CHINA. 6125, CNR1, from 1156+, on Oct 27. Non-stop live coverage of the closing ceremony
of the 7th Military World Games (not war games, but sports games, hi!), held in Wuhan (Hubei
Province); mostly in Chinese, but with some English and French; Col. Dorah Mamby Koita,
Secretary General of the International Military Sports Council, presented the Fair Play Award to
Col. Bertrand Gebuhrer, chief of the French delegation. Youtube, with English coverage, at
http://bit.ly/2MQw4WD .

CHINA/TIBET. 6200, Xizang PBS via Lhasa, at 1224, on Oct 27. Heard Tibet in the clear; then
the usual double sign on of Voice of Jinling at *1231* and back at *1232; VOJ much stronger
reception than Tibet.

KOREA NORTH[non]. 6085, Shiokaze/Sea Breeze, at 1310, Oct 27. Change of frequency and in
the clear with no jamming; was unable to locate //, but thanks to Hiroshi, who did find it, as well as
other times and frequencies today:

1300-1400 ? 6085 // 7310
1405-1435 ? 7260 // 7325
1600-1700 ? 6095 // 7325 ?

KOREA SOUTH. Voice of the People, from 1107+, on Oct 27; 3910 (jammed) // 3480 (fair - no jamming)
// 3925 (jammed) // 4450 (jammed) // 6515 (jammed) // 6600 (jammed).

Echo of Hope - VOH, from 1104+, on Oct 27; 3985 (jammed) // 4880 (fair - no jamming) // 5995 (jammed)
// 6245 (jammed) // 6350 (jammed) // 9095 (fair - no jamming).

6045, Voice of Freedom, from 1140+, on Oct 27. After being on ex 5920 for a long time, they finally moved
back to a former frequency; the good news is that National Unity Radio has moved off this frequency (now
7590?), but the bad news is that today at *1144, the N. Korea jamming that would have been against NUR
started up, so will take N. Korea awhile to move to the new NUR frequency, but unfortunately the 5920
jamming will eventually move up to 6045. NUR sudden change probably due to the VOF shift in frequency.

7295, Furusato no Kaze ("Wind of Hometown"), 1331, Oct 27. Again on this former frequency; in Japanese.

BHUTAN. 6035, BBS, on Oct 30, with pop music segment (1014-1020); then announcers 
and interviews in English (unreadable) till cut off at 1048*; still with earlier than normal
closing down time.

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, on Oct 30, with impassioned political speeches
("... we people of Bougainville ...") from 1120 to 1140; then 1140-1201, with pop music; 1201-
1206, news in English (unreadable); after cut off at 1207*, only the carrier from Voice of
Indonesia, via Palangkaraya, was heard with no audio at all today, even when checked later.

KOREA NORTH. Seems they have reevaluated and updated their jamming situation via SW.
They are now actively responding to some of the Echo of Hope - VOH and Voice of the People
frequency changes that have been observed recently since Oct 1.

For me, the biggest find today (Oct 30) was that after years of non-stop daily N. Korea jamming
on 6135, found that frequency today was completely free of the usual jamming noise. Hope it is
not a one day only anomaly! Many years ago Voice of Freedom was on frequency, but 6135 has
not had a station to be jammed for a long time.

Today noted CRI on 6135, in English, from 1404 to past 1500 (scheduled 1400-1557). Had hoped
to check for R. Madagasikara on this frequency, but block by China when reception might have
been possible. Also the absence of 6135 noise jamming is of some help for reception of Lao
National Radio (6130), which was heard today about 1345. BTW - KBS, on 6015, was jammed
as usual with noise, so 6135 seemed to be an independent absence.??
?
KOREA SOUTH. Echo of Hope - VOH, 1211, Oct 30. S. Korean musical group, Girls Generation
(SNSD) with "Into The New World"; 3980 (jammed & ham QRM) // 4885 (good - not jammed)
// 5990 (jammed) // 6250 (jammed) // 6347 (jammed) // 9100 (good - not jammed). ?

6045, Voice of Freedom, 1000, Oct 30. News program "Bodo gwangjang" ("News plaza"); no
jamming or QRM; my audio at http://bit.ly/332JWmz?.??

MYANMAR. 5985, Myanmar Radio, 1249-1259, Oct 30 (Wednesday). The usual two consecutive
5 minute shows of "Learning English with BBC, Burmese"; first show about names ("His name is ...,
Her name is ..., My name is ..."); second show with "I come from England"; not very readable; the
two shows will be repeated on Friday.

> 6045kHz JAMMING, vs Voice of Freedom (SOUTH KOREA)

Nov 1 - Yes, extremely strong jamming noted from 1015+, on 6045; totally blocking VOF;
while ex 5920 is now a clear frequency. So yesterday (Oct 31) was the last day that VOF
was in the clear with a good signal. Yesterday from 1507+, with very enjoyable music
program. My audio (one minute of announcer and then music) at http://bit.ly/2qaavHQ .

Also Nov 1:

3945, Echo of Unification (presumed), 1254-1319, in Korean with announcer and music;
in the clear during this time period, but weak. Schedule is 1200-1400, but Japan ("RN2,
Radio Nikkei"), the last time I recently checked, had a sign off at 1231*, which should
overpower EOU for a half hour. ?

7295, Furusato no Kaze ("Wind of Hometown"), 1330, into Japanese; very nice signal. My

Re: Sarawak FM reactivated on 9835 kHz. Ron Howard - Nov 11 (Mon), 2019 15:12 UTC No.4192
MALAYSIA[non-Sarawak]. 9835, Sarawak FM (presumed), via Kajang (on the west coast of the 
Malaysia peninsular), 1148-1317, Nov 11. Had been off the air all this year, so very happy to find
them reactivated; 1148-1233, with EZL pop songs (no news at ToH); 1233-1259, reciting from the
Qur'an; 1300-1310, news in vernacular; tentative SAs for "Sarawak FM" and "R T M"; reception
varied from very poor to almost fair, depending on the amount of adjacent QRM. My audio of four
minutes of the news and one of Qur'an, at http://bit.ly/33FOY8E . BTW - Wai FM (11665 kHz.) was

CHINA. 6060, PBS-2 Sichuan, at 1200, Nov 15. Clear multi-language IDs - "Sichu?n?minzu gu?ngbo,?Sichuan Ethnic Radio"; almost fair, playing indigenous songs; heard?daily with very respectable signal.

KOREA NORTH. 6250, Echo of Unification, 1329, Nov 15. Fair reception, in the clear?due to fact that?Echo of Hope - VOH was up on 6255, along with N. Korean jamming of?VOH; that changed when VOH?moved down to 6250, to mix with EOU; jamming did not?move off 6255 to follow VOH, although later the?jamming was completely gone (not on?6250 nor 6255). A strange day!?? ??
?
KOREA SOUTH. Echo of Hope - VOH, random checking 1126 to 1335, Nov 15. Difficult?to keep up with the?fast moving changes today.

Summary of some of the items noted: 9105, completely off the air today; 4890, several times?noted off-on-off-on?again; VOH was jumping back and forth from 6250 (mixing with Echo of?Unification) to 6255. Even the N. Korean?jamming had anomalies: 1334, the jamming had?gone off on 6000 (still QRM from another station), 6255 and 6355 (now very good reception?without the jamming), whereas earlier all three frequencies where jammed.

So South Korea is actively trying to out run the jamming with these quick changes and N. Korea?jamming is?often not far behind. Seems no set frequency schedule any more?

MYANMAR. 6165, Thazin Radio (presumed), 1430-1500, Nov 16-17-18. Heard underneath a
much stronger CNR6; definitely in English; pop songs; at 1436, seemed to be the news; certainly
not a one-day-only event.

I last reported hearing them on this frequency back in 2017. Since then, have randomly checked
for any trace, even a hint, of Thazin, but with no success at all. So, for several years now have
only heard CNR6 from 1430 to 1500 and nothing else noted. With the stronger CNR6 here, will be
a real challenge to dig out any meaningful details. Can only hope for a day with outstanding
propagation favoring Myanmar. My local sunrise was at 1448 UTC. My audio, with stronger CNR6
announcer and weaker Thazin music, at http://bit.ly/2O0digm . Even with poor reception, am very
pleased to be hearing them again on this frequency!

3344.92 kHz. today was a utility, which just happened to be on the former Ternate
and PNG frequency. Still with a good level carrier 1506+.

Very nice to hear NBC Bougainville (3325) back on the air again, till 1207*. Went off just?at the end of the NBC news in English.

Can someone please confirm the following? 7293.0, Xinjiang PBS (tentative), 1203+, on??
Nov 24, 25 & 26. Now off frequency, with nothing on their ex: 7295, so probably is PBS??

Re: Radio Nyawa Sarawak Ron Howard - Dec 02 (Mon), 2019 18:35 UTC No.4228
SARAWAK[non]. 11890, Radio Nyawa Sarawak (site?), 1131, Dec 2 (Monday). Had recently
been checking this new Mon-Wed-Fri broadcast without any success; only had a very weak
carrier and never any hint of audio, that is until today; above threshold level audio; poor reception,
with CODAR QRM; 1131-1147, phone interview in vernacular; 1147 till suddenly cut off at 1158*,
with indigenous chanting (no music); no sign off announcement. Later was able to confirm positive
SA via audio streaming at their website (https://www.radionyawasarawak.org/shows/02-12-2019),
by also hearing the unique chanting there.

One of the presenters today was Peter John Jaban. It will be recalled that he was a co-founder of
Radio Free Sarawak (RFS), as well as a DJ/presenter on RFS. He is a human rights activist. Also
recall this: "Radio Free Sarawak specialized in allowing native communities to speak out about their
problems including deforestation, land grabs and the frenzy of dam building now hitting their regions,"
which sounds very much like the purpose of the new station. So is Radio Nyawa Sarawak the successor
of RFS? Seems to me it is.

It will also be recalled that when RFS was on the air, they often had heavy jamming to block their critical
assessment about things happening in Sarawak. Perhaps it is only a matter of time before Radio Nyawa
Sarawak will also be heavily jammed? ? ?

My poor quality audio of today's chanting and cut off, at http://bit.ly/2Y90c3w .

so there is a great possibility that it will be broadcast in anticipation
of the next election. (Same as "Radio Free Sarawak" mission.)

level audio, while 2850 was very strong. Recently have noted these lower powered stations
daily with some audio. Thanks to Wolfie for his extensive survey of Korean stations. Very
helpful.

KOREA SOUTH. Echo of Hope - VOH with their usual weekly changes made on Monday.

announcers here from the clandestine station; scheduled 1230-1300; carrier noted at 1226

AUSTRALIA. 5055, Radio 4KZ, 1121-1131 & 1220-1239*, Dec 10. Yesterday was blocked
by OTH radar, but clear today; strong enough to be able to ID some songs (The Stylistics
with "You Make Me Feel Brand New," America - "A Horse With No Name" and Xmas song
"Jingle Bells"); cut off time is getting earlier and earlier (1241* back on Nov 25).? ??

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, 1137-1215*, Dec 10. Anomaly today of having QRM
from audio of VOI also on frequency; at times mixing together rather badly; today's Xmas song -
"Gloria"; 1201-1204, news in English; after 1204, "This is NBC" programming in English provided
via Port Moresby (before 1201, was local Bougainville programs and IDs); running longer than
usual; cut off in mid-song, leaving VOI in Japanese in the clear. Extremely rare day for VOI to
have any audio.

CHINA. 6060 // 7225, PBS-2 Sichuan, at 1300, Dec 10. Usual multi-language SAs - "Sichu?n minzu

Wonderful to have Vanuatu back on the air. Thanks for the great audio!!!

Vanuatu really likes playing "You Are the Only One," as noted in my 2015 log:

"VANUATU. 3945, R. Vanuatu, 1404-1434, Sept 25, 2015. Surprising well heard; usual long musical
loop; non-stop music and never any announcements; heard after the weekday sign off of "RN2"
(Japan); my local sunrise at 1358 UT.

It will be recalled that the song "You Are the Only One" is by far the most frequently played song here.
Sung by the group "Black Brothers," who in 1979 came to Vanuatu, to live in self-imposed exile, in
protest against Indonesian government policies and human rights violations. The group was originally
from West Papua. Today ?"You Are the Only One" was played at 1417 and again at 1431.

AUSTRALIA. 5055, Radio 4KZ, 1111-1239*, Dec 15. Mostly pop songs (Nancy Sinatra -
"These Boots Are Made for Walking," Elton John - "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" [with Kiki
Dee], Whitney Houston - "Saving All My Love For You," etc.); after 1208, played all Country
& Western songs; usual news and weather at ToH; good number of commercial announcements
that were almost readable; a day with decent reception.

BOUGAINVILLE[non-log]. 3325, Dec 15, ?from 1047+, found off the air; later VOI carrier with
no audio today. ?

INDIA/VANUATU. 5040, AIR Jeypore, 1332+, Dec 15. Live coverage of the West Indies vs India
cricket match played at Chennai; in both English and Hindi. Earlier at 1054, heard two stations
here. One perhaps Radio Vanuatu and other one Cuba? Did not recognize Vanuatu as such and
went to monitor 4KZ instead. So if Vanuatu signs off at 1200, per their schedule, then they will be
mixing with Jeypore for half an hour, which signs on at 1130?

KOREA NORTH. 3945, Echo of Unification, on Dec 15, noted test tone and carrier 1150-1159; IS,
time pips and Anthem; in Korean and playing music; 1401* after Anthem; ham QRM.

BOUGAINVILLE. 3325, NBC Bougainville, random listening on Dec 16. DJ in Pidgin with dedications,

at 1223; reception blocked at 1128, with the start of AIR IS, via Jeypore, which was stronger than

rare to have audio level well above threshold level; had hoped they would give full coverage to

AFGHANISTAN [non]. 5940.12, IBRA Radio (Radyo Sadaye Zindagi) via UAE, Al Dhabbaya,

INDIA, 5040, AIR Jeypore, 1120+, Dec 18. Live coverage of the West Indies vs India cricket match
played at Vishakapatnam, India; normally starts broadcasting at *1130, just after brief AIR IS, so
today's match coverage started earlier than normal; as usual was in both English and Hindi, but
what was highly unusual was that one of the announcers was a YL, which in the past, I believe,
was an exclusively all male activity for AIR. Fortunately now that Vanuatu has settled into their 1059*
schedule (noted the last two days), there is no conflict between the two. ?

MALAYSIA[non-Sarawak]. ?9835, Sarawak FM, via Kajang, 1109, Dec 18. Well above the norm; in
vernacular; commercial announcement for "Ford Ranger - sports performance" (brief audio attached);
DJ with pop songs; enjoyable listening.

4KZ should be back on the air Dec 28, per the following:

Dec 27, noted Radio 4KZ (5055) was off the air from 1108+ (normal closing time is 1238*).
Is unusual for it to be silent, so sent off an email to Al Kirton (general manager of 4KZ).
Wondered if it was another case of him turning off the transmitter remotely when there
was a lot of lightning around? No, it was something else today.

His quick reply: "Hi Ron - The 4Gx modem at east Innisfail requires a reboot. I’ll go out
later today [his local Saturday, Dec 28 - Ron] and do it. Thank you for noticing this. We

Re: Sound of Hope and Australia on 6215 kHz. Ron Howard - Dec 28 (Sat), 2019 14:15 UTC No.4287
TAIWAN/AUSTRALIA. new frequency 6215, Sound of Hope, 1123-1201, Dec 28. Almost daily I monitor 
SOH on 6230 and 6280, which are traditional SOH frequencies, so was surprised to find a new SOH
signal // to 6230 (today 6280 was blocked by strong CNR1 jamming). New frequency stronger than
6230 // 6280 ever heard in the past. At *1157, start of a marine message in USB; sounded Aussie(?),
with "All stations, all stations, all stations, . . Australia India Charlie . . ., Australia India Charlie . ."
(definitely not Taupo Maritime Radio); mostly blocked by SOH's signal; message was fairly short.
One possibility is perhaps "Maritime Safety Queensland" - https://www.msq.qld.gov.au/Safety/Marine-radios .
At 1200, SOH usual ID by OM and YL with "Xiwang zhi sheng guoji guangbo diantai" (Sound of Hope
international broadcast station). Audio on new frequency seemed more muffled than other SOH
frequencies? Needs more monitoring. On one hand, is nice to have a new SOH frequency with
decent signal strength, but on the other hand, is also unfortunate to be strongly blocking marine
