Shortwave Radiogram, Program 313

 

Hello friends

The slow browsing problem that I was lamenting last week has been resolved. I went into the Firefox settings and made various adjustments, applying the science (art?) of trial-and-error, and finally, something worked. And so we move on to a new problem: My favorite email application no longer works with my email provider on one of my accounts. I can access emails but through the provider's clunky email client. So more trial and error in the next few days.

And in other technical news, my Sangean ATS-808 radio finally quit. Sangean gave it to me about 30 years ago in exchange for writing a guide to shortwave listening that was shipped with their radios. The ATS-808 had good sensitivity on shortwave and other bands, but it had no SSB capability. In recent years, it has been my kitchen radio (every kitchen should have a radio), used mainly to listen to our all-news station, WTOP, 103.5 MHz FM, in the mornings while making coffee and feeding the cat, and later in the day, while washing dishes and feeding the cat.

For a replacement radio, I bought a Sangean HDR-14 (labeled SG-108 on my unit). I wanted to tune in to whatever HD (digital) sub-channels are available in the Washington DC area. Analog radio in the Washington area is not very good, at least not to my ears. The few exceptions include our public radio stations, as well as C-SPAN radio on 90.1 MHz, the all-news WTOP and Bloomberg Radio on 99.1 MHz. Tuning around on the HDR-14, I find that the HD stations are not much better. Many times the HD subchannel is used to relay a co-owned station that is available on another (analog) frequency. Among the bright spots on FM HD are Bluegrass Country, 88.5 HD2, and The Gamut, an eclectic oldies station on 103.5 HD3.

There seem to be no local stations using AM HD. An interesting nearby station is WWFD in Frederick, Maryland, which is The Gamut full-bandwidth HD on 820 kHz -- no co-channel analog. I can't hear it from our house, but I do hear it driving around the suburbs. At night, the only AM HD signal so far detected is WPHT, 1210 kHz in Philadelphia, but the signal is not strong enough to establish actual HD reception.

And now, finally, to the subject at hand: A video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 312) is provided by Scott in Ontario (Friday 1300 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. The analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 313, 13-18 July 2023, in MFSK modes as noted:

 1:44  MFSK32: Program preview

 2:52  MFSK32: Rare snowfall in Johannesburg, South Africa*

Review from Radio Reporter on EUROPE 1

 Radio Reporter writes:

The epic story of one of France’s most successful radio stations is reconstructed in the book ‘EUROPE 1. De la singularité au déclin (1955-2022)’, written by Philippe GIildas, French journalist and columnist.

 The broadcaster was founded in 1954 by Charles Michelson, a visionary entrepreneur who was already thinking about Europe and television. But he is an awkward character and the government bars his way, making Sylvain Floirat, owner of the Matra aeronautics group, take his place. Floirat is also a man of great qualities and makes the station grow further. Among his employees is Jean-Luc Lagardère, a young engineer who takes over in the mid-1970s, continuing to develop the winning format and consolidating the station’s success.

Voice of America observations

 

Good morning one and all, does anyone recall the exact dates of operation of the Voice of America from Munich on 173 kHz LW? I discovered this quite by chance on 18 December 1969, but at that time it was only on air between 18:00 and 22:00 UTC, the first 2 hours in English and the second 2 hours in an unknown language. 

The broadcasting hours would later be extended back to 16:00 to 22:00 UTC. Of course, this being on LW would give it a much wider daytime coverage than 1196 kHz from the same site, and enabled me, for

Example, to follow the progress of Apollo 13 on its way back to Earth after the April 1970 disaster. I did not have access to short-wave radio at that time. Last time I heard Voice of America on LW was, I think, during the flight of Apollo17 in December 1972. 

The transmitter was on air for extended hours to cover that flight, but as this took place during the dark hours of December MW would provide clearer coverage when it was not broadcasting in a language other than English.

ABC heads back to Palau in more than five years

 

Under a new Memorandum of Understanding, ABC Radio Australia programs will be carried on the Republic of Palau’s national radio broadcaster, Eco Paradise FM (EPFM).

The signing was attended by Palau Minister of State, the Hon. Gustav Aitaro and the Australian Minister for International Development and the Pacific, the Hon. Pat Conroy.

ABC International Services Head Claire Gorman acknowledged the support of the Australian Embassy in Koror for brokering the agreement and said: “This new partnership is a first step towards the aim of establishing a full FM radio service in Palau, an ABC initiative funded under the Indo-Pacific Broadcasting Strategy.”

Gorman continued: “The ABC is proud to partner with EPFM and has a long history of engagement with Palau, including the provision of ABC Australia content on Palau National Communication Corporation’s (PNCC) television service.”

ABC Radio Australia has recently increased its Pacific-focused content and under the agreement, Palau residents will have access to programming including flagship regional current affairs show Pacific Beat as well as culture, education and music shows Stories from the Pacific, Pacific Playtime and Island Music.

ABC Radio Australia is available via EPFM on FM radio at 87.9FM and on EPFM Ngerel Belau AM Radio at 1584AM from Wednesday 28 July 2023.

Kyrgyzstan Reverses Decision to Close U.S.-Funded Media

 Kyrgyzstan announced Wednesday it had reversed a decision to close the local branch of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty after the U.S.-funded outlet agreed to remove a video criticized by authorities.

Award-winning Radio Azattyk is a prominent outlet in the Central Asian country that regularly reports on opposition groups and investigates alleged corruption.

"Azattyk Media removed from all its platforms a report containing unreliable information about a border conflict," the culture ministry said, referring to fighting with neighboring Tajikistan. "Legal proceedings have been halted," the statement added.

The announcement was made after a court in the Kyrgyz capital Bishkek approved a settlement agreement between the two parties.

In January, the culture ministry said it had filed a lawsuit to shut the media organization over its refusal to remove a video about clashes last year between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan that left around 100 people dead.

In April, a court in Russia-allied Kyrgyzstan ordered the closure of the local branch of U.S.-funded Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, which criticized the "outrageous" ruling.

Rights campaigners Amnesty International and Reporters Without Borders condemned the court ruling at the time.

The former Soviet republic enjoys relative freedom of speech compared to other countries in Central Asia, but rights groups have decried what they say is growing pressure on the press.

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 03 - 09 July 2023

Solar activity reached moderate levels (R1-Minor) on 03-07 Jul and declined to low levels on 08-09 Jul. Region 3354 (N16, L=168, class/area Fkc/1150 on 02 Jul) produced an M1.4/Sf at 04/1235 UTC and an M1.0/Sf at 06/1049 UTC. Region 3358 (S13, L=068, class/area Dai/100 on 03 Jul) produced an M1.3/1n at 03/0653 UTC. Region 3361 (N24, L=042, class/area Ekc/260 on 08 Jul) produced an M1.0/Sf on 05/1858 UTC. Region 3359 (S21, L=072, class/area Dao/240 on 06 Jul) produced the largest event of the period, an M4.0/2b at 07/0629 UTC. This event also produced a 190 sfu Tenflare. During the period, no Earth-directed CMEs were detected. 

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels on 03-05 Jul with a peak flux of 3,560 pfu observed at 05/1650 UTC. Normal to moderate levels were observed on 06-09 Jul.  Geomagnetic field activity was at quiet levels on 03 Jul to midday on 05 Jul. Quiet to unsettled levels were observed from midday 05 Jul to 07 Jul, with isolated active intervals from midday on 07 Jul to early on 08 Jul. This activity was the result of weak transient activity coupled with positive polarity CH HSS. The majority of 08 Jul through 09 Jul observed quiet conditions. 

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 10 July - 05 August 2023

Solar activity is expected to be at low to R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) levels throughout the forecast period. 

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to be at high levels throughout the forecast period. 

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to reach unsettled levels on 10-11 Jul and 03-04 Aug due to positive polarity CH HSS influence. Unsettled to active levels are expected on 13-14 Jul due to negative polarity CH HSS influence. Mostly quiet levels are expected on 12, 15-31 Jul, 01-02 and 05 Aug.

Shortwave Radiogram 312

 

Hello friends

This was a big week in our house. I installed a new Verizon Fios router, with the help of a Verizon representative on the telephone. We were FiOS (as it was capitalized back then) customers since it was introduced to our neighborhood about 15 years ago. We have used Fios for broadband and landline, but not television -- our TV is via antennas. 

Our new Fios router and plan is supposed to increase our downloads to 300 Mbps. This would be helpful given that my wife is usually working from home, our son is visiting for the week and working his aerospace engineering job from our house, and I, in retirement, am producing Shortwave Radiogram and scouring the internet for news about international broadcasting for the @kaedotcom Twitter (for now) account. That adds up to a lot of data in and out.

The people in our house using wireless devices noticed faster connections from the new router. But I, upstairs, with an ethernet connection to bring the internet to my large tower PC, large display and full-sized keyboard (I refer to this system as The Mighty Wurlitzer), noticed that things are now slow. Very slow. Like dial-up slow. Images in websites loaded about as slowly as images do on Shortwave Radiogram. That slowly! 

This made for a long night last night, as I usually audition over 100 images for the 10-12 or so that are transmitted each week on Shortwave Radiogram. URLs and links had to be clicked a few times for the desired action.

Over the weekend I will troubleshoot and configure the router, OS, and browser settings. I'm already making some progress. Eventually, I'll figure this out.

Videos of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 311) are provided by Bobby in Louisiana (Thursday 2330 UTC) and Scott in Ontario (Friday 1300 UTC). The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. The analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 312, 6-11 July 2023, in MFSK modes as noted:

Former BBC Cyprus observations on mediumwave

 

In recent days, the former BBC relay station in Cyprus on 639 kHz has been transmitting a program in Arabic by ‘Al Arabiya FM‘ radio between the hours of 18:00 and 22:00 GMT.

It is possible that the broadcast is intended for listeners in Sudan, which is currently undergoing an attempted military coup.

I have no idea where the broadcasts come from..

The station has a relay in Saudi Arabia on FM. It is clear from the content of the news that this is a pro-Western station.

Al-Arabiya was launched in 2003 from the Media City in Dubai. Al Arabiya FM follow the latest news and developments on the Arab and international scene without delay and delay with the investigation of the truth.

The most prominent feature of the Arab world is its continued and continuous coverage of events and developments in the Arab and international arena, as well as the assassination of Hariri, and was chosen by US President Barack Obama to be the first channel to broadcast his dialogue to the world as President of the United States of America.

227 came on with a weak signal at 22:06 UTC before falling away two minutes later.

A short time later at 22:10, one or more of the 209 transmitters powered up. This is still visible at 22:16.

The main transmitter on 164 hasn’t shown up at all. From monitoring this particular SDR on a nightly basis for the past two weeks, the 164 seems to suffer from false-starts on power-up, as in it seems to take more than one attempt to get it online as the carrier appears and disappears several times before becoming steady.

So far I have not heard the interval music to signify the start of the day’s broadcasting. This is usually audible at around 22:06 UTC.

MNB has seen my message enquiring about the current status of the LW transmitters but for whatever reason has not replied as of yet.

I will keep observing for the next hour or so and inform you of any updates,

Argentina's AM technicical issues

 

In the last few days, several technical problems have been reported that caused the air output of some AM stations operating from the AMBA area (Area Múltiple Buenos Aires). For example, Eco Radio AM 1220 (1220 KHz) is not being reported active, the only station that owns its transmitting antenna in the territory of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.

LR9 Radio Perfil (1190 KHz) is also not being heard, due to adjustments to its Transmitter Plant located on the Campus of the National University of Lomas de Zamora.

Also not heard for a few days Radio La Más Santiagueña (1160 KHz) at Gregorio de Laferrere, Partido de La Matanza; and Radio Imagen (1310 KHz) at Castelar, Partido de Moron. Also Radio Creativa (1230 kHz), with the radiating system located in Valentín Alsina, Partido de Lanús is not received; as well as the evangelical religious station Radio Zorobabel (1540 KHz) from Monte Grande, Partido de Esteban Echeverría.

Voice of Vietnam's mediumwave developments

 

Voice Of Vietnam continues the development of medium waves to increase coverage of the country, neighboring countries and maritime and island areas.

Two new transmitters went into service on January 15. These two transmitters broadcast VOV1 on 693kHz and VOV2 on 819kHz.

Transmitters are GatesAir Flexiva AM/DRM compatible semiconductors. With 2 x 200 kW, listeners from the central high plateau and surrounding regions as well as overseas Vietnamese from northeast Cambodia can easily listen to the Voice of Vietnam radio programs.

A little over a year ago, VOV had put into operation, a broadcasting station from the South Central Region, for the East Sea region and the South Central coastal provinces. The radio station is located on an area of 16 hectares, in Phuoc Dinh commune, Thuan Nam district, Ninh Thuan province. The station has a power of 400 kw and broadcasts at 1071 kHz. The transmitter is a Nautel ready to convert to DRM digital radio. Like many countries in Asia, the conversion to DRM to medium-wave and VHF is now the order of the day more than ever.

FCC opens public comments on shortwave modernization coalition

 

The FCC has opened for public comment the Petition for Rulemaking of the Shortwave Modernization Coalition.

The proposal would bring new private, non-broadcast digital stations to the high-frequency spectrum.

The Coalition members have performed HF experiments over the last several years. Favorable FCC action on the proposal would open the field to regular commercial operations.

The FCC has assigned the petition number RM-11953. Comments are due in 30 days.

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 26 June - 02 July 2023

Solar activity was generally at R1 (Minor) levels until 02 Jul when R3 (Strong) levels were reached. Weak M-class activity was observed from Regions 3340 (N20, L=234, class/area Eki/350 on 26 Jun) on 26-28 Jun, Region 3354 (N15, L=168, class/area Fkc/1150 on 02 Jul) on 29 Jun and Region 3359 (S22, L=068, class/area Dai/060 on 02 Jul) on 01-02 Jul. Region 3354 produced an X1 flare at 02/2314 UTC. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed during the period. 

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at high levels on 27 Jun through 02 Jul with a maximum flux of 3,510 pfu observed at 28/1555 UTC. 

Geomagnetic field activity was at mostly quiet to isolated unsettled levels throughout the period. A brief interval of active levels was observed the latter half of 29 Jun due to a solar sector crossing

from a negative to a positive sector. 

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 03 July - 29 July 2023

Solar activity is expected to be at low to R1-R2 (Minor-Moderate) levels throughout the forecast period. 

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to reach high levels on 03-06 Jul and 14-29 Jul due to CH HSS influence. 

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to reach unsettled levels on 04-05 Jul, unsettled to active levels on 09-10 Jul with G1-G2 (Minor-Moderate) levels likely on 12-13 Jul due to recurrent CH HSS

activity. Quiet to unsettled levels are expected on 14-29 Jul.

Shortwave Radiogram, Program 308

 

Hello friends

As I type this, the Washington DC area is in a Code Red situation for the smoke and haze from the Canadian wildfires. Many of you in North America are in a similar situation. It does look hazy outside, but not as bad as our Code Purple a few weeks ago. With our temperature now 85F/29C, I would usually leave the windows open. But they are now closed to keep the bad air out. 

One of our news stories this weekend is about research showing that a regular daytime naps are associated with healthier and larger brains. On Thursdays, I am usually awake at about 3 am to produce Shortwave Radiogram, finishing at about noon. By then, a two-hour nap is obligatory, after which I start this weekly email. It's good to know my daytime naps may have a benefit. (I knew I would become a daytime napper in the year or two before I retired, occasionally nodding off briefly at my desk.) 

A video of last weekend's Shortwave Radiogram (program 310) is provided by Scott in Ontario. The audio archive is maintained by Mark in the UK. The analysis is provided by Roger in Germany.

Here is the lineup for Shortwave Radiogram, program 311, 29 June-4 July 2023, in MFSK modes as noted:

 1:40  MFSK32: Program preview

 2:48  MFSK32: Bigger bottles keep champagne bubbly for decades*

 8:07  MFSK64: Regular daytime naps linked to healthier brains

11:39  MFSK64: This week's images*

27:40  MFSK32: Closing announcements

QSLing WBCQ

 

On the WBCQ (Worlds Last Chance) website (heard here recently on 9330khz) they say: 

"We issue QSL cards for verified reception reports. QSL cards are issued for reception reports via postal mail only. Please include a self-addressed stamped envelope with your request."

But... I live in the UK, I emailed them at this address: wbcq@wbcq.com... they then replied back with this address: lee@worldslastchance.com and asked me to go and fill a form in here: https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio/qsl - and they would send the QSL after that.

So... I filled in the form... and within seconds of submitting it I got a return email with a link to download the e-QSL.

I'll send a full QSL report in for the magazine, but I thought I'd attach the QSL for all to see ??

So... if you want a QSL from WBCQ... don't email them - just go straight here:  https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio/qsl and fill the form in - they even want the full SINPO ratings - bless them ??

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 19 - 25 June 2023

Solar activity ranged from low to high levels. Low levels were observed on 23 and 25 Jun. Moderate levels were observed on 19, 21-22, and 24 Jun whereas high levels were observed on 20 Jun. Region 3341 (S16, L=207, class/area Cso/200 on 23 Jun) was responsible for the majority of the M-class activity along with an X1.1 Tenflare (480 sfu at 2695 MHz) at 20/1709 UTC which had associated Type II (1057 km/s) and Type IV radio sweeps along with a CME off the Eastern limb at 20/1712 UTC. WSA/ENLIL analysis indicated the potential for a grazing blow late on 23 Jun to early on 24 Jun. Region 3341 produced a total of four M1 flares and one X1 flare. Regions 3337 (N20, L=262, class/area Cso/120 on 21 Jun), 3340 (N23, L=233, class/area Ekc/300 on 25 Jun), and 3342 (S22, L=343, class/area Dao/070 on 20 Jun) also contributed to M-class flare activity. Region 3340 produced an M4 at 22/2344 UTC with associated Type II (534 km/s) and IV radio sweeps along with an associated CME off the SE limb at 23/0414 UTC. The CME was determined to not have an Earth-directed component. Region 3340 developed a Beta-Delta magnetic configuration on 25 Jun as moderate growth and consolidation were observed. 

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit reached high levels on 19-20 and 22-24 Jun due to CH HSS influence. The peak flux was 2,550 pfu observed at 22/1540 UTC. 

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to G1 (Minor) storm levels. Quiet to unsettled levels were observed from 19-23 Jun as solar wind parameters remained slightly enhanced between 390-485 km/s and total field ranged from 5-8 nT. On 24-25 Jun, solar wind parameters became enhanced, possibly due to the aforementioned CME from the X1 flare. Total field ranged from 5-12 nT while solar wind speed values increased to nearly 535 km/s. The geomagnetic field responded with active to G1 (Minor) storming late on 24 Jun through early on 25 Jun. 

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity 26 June - 22 July 2023

Solar activity is expected to be at low to moderate levels on 26

Jun-22 Jul. 

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is expected to reach high levels on 14-21 Jul due to CH HSS influence.
