Caros amigos,<br />
Somos to<strong>do</strong>s pessoas contamina<strong>do</strong>s pelos vírus da RF, e temos este salutar vício de ouvir rádio.<br />
Mas, atualmente, aqueles que tem esta paixão, tem observa<strong>do</strong> um empobrecimento apresenta<strong>do</strong> pelas emissoras, em<br />
suas programações, e isso nos entristece muito.<br />
Pois, grande parte <strong>do</strong>s entusiastas, aprenderam a ouvir rádio na infância, e assim foram toca<strong>do</strong>s por grandes programa<strong>do</strong>res<br />
e apresenta<strong>do</strong>res e programações ricas em boa música e agradável entretenimento.<br />
Se somos <strong>do</strong>s que gostam de freqüência Modulada, vemos hoje, uma mesmice completa <strong>nas</strong> programações das FMs,<br />
onde os locutores nem sempre são seleciona<strong>do</strong>s pela boa dicção, pela boa colocação da voz e pelo carisma na interação<br />
com os ouvintes.<br />
Nestas emissoras, vemos, ou melhor ouvimos, locutores que acreditam que se deva gritar ao microfone para poderem<br />
ser ouvi<strong>do</strong>s, outros falam numa velocidade tal que conseguimos captar 40 a 60% daquilo que falam; isso sem mencionar<br />
aqueles que incluem em seu vocabulários uma imensa quantidade de gírias, muitas <strong>do</strong> sub-mun<strong>do</strong> <strong>do</strong> crime, as quais não<br />
temos conhecimento e nem vivência para entender... e acreditam que isso é fazer rádio.<br />
Que saudade nos dá <strong>do</strong>s grandes comunica<strong>do</strong>res, sejam de que ramo musical, ou conotação política; pois o ecletismo é<br />
sempre total, quan<strong>do</strong> se fala em qualidade.<br />
A programação pode ser dividida em <strong>do</strong>is tipos: boa ou ruim, somente isso, seja ela de que tendência for.<br />
Pois existe o bom e o ruim na música sertaneja de raiz, existe o bom e o ruim na MPB, existe o bom e o ruim na música<br />
clássica... em toda atividade as coisas são assim mesmo...simples e diretas.<br />
É por isso, que dá gosto ouvir <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias, á noite, procuran<strong>do</strong> captar as emissoras das peque<strong>nas</strong> cidades.<br />
Nestas emissões notur<strong>nas</strong>, de emissoras de poucos recursos financeiros, os programa<strong>do</strong>res tem maior liberdade de<br />
fazerem aquela seleção musical que gostam e não aquela que a direção pede ou que é mostra<strong>do</strong> pela direção que o bloco<br />
da mídia deseja dar.<br />
Na programação <strong>do</strong> dia, as emissoras, com raras exceções apresentam programações que parecem ter si<strong>do</strong> cópias Xerox,<br />
distribuídas entre quase todas.<br />
O famoso “jabá” forneci<strong>do</strong> pelas grava<strong>do</strong>ras direciona quase todas as programações para termos algo que parece uma<br />
epidemia geral que assola todas as rádios.<br />
Parece que alguém comanda, sazonalmente, a direção que to<strong>do</strong>s devem seguir, e temos a impressão que num perío<strong>do</strong><br />
abriram somente as torneiras <strong>do</strong>s chama<strong>do</strong>s “sertanejos da cidade” e somos abduzi<strong>do</strong>s pelos Zezés, pelos Chororós, pelos<br />
Leonar<strong>do</strong>s, pelas duplas “rolha de poço” consideradas culturais; depois alguém fecha esta torneira que eles não chamam<br />
mais de sertaneja, pois se consideram “country”, por ser mais chic.<br />
É aí então, que vem outro a abrir a torneira <strong>do</strong> Axé, e somos inunda<strong>do</strong>s pelo batuque geral e pelas letras mais “criativas”<br />
de nossa música, onde utilizam tanto alê, iê, aô, Iô, que chegamos a julgar que se não existissem as vogais no alfabeto,<br />
estes letristas estariam perdi<strong>do</strong>s.<br />
Outra torneira que abre é a <strong>do</strong> tal Funk, que eles apregoam ser um movimento cultural das minorias residentes <strong>nas</strong> favelas,<br />
mas não conseguimos ver cultura, numa música que pregoa a violência, as drogas, usan<strong>do</strong> até refrões imitan<strong>do</strong> o som de<br />
armas atiran<strong>do</strong>.<br />
Mas, deixan<strong>do</strong> estas, torneiras diárias, principalmente das emissoras de FM, comandadas pelas grava<strong>do</strong>ras na divulgação<br />
daquilo que deseja tornar Hits <strong>do</strong> momento; temos na programação noturna das emissoras de <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias, um rico filão<br />
a ser explora<strong>do</strong> em termos de boas programações.<br />
Diariamente, no perío<strong>do</strong> noturno, fico abisma<strong>do</strong> e satisfeito em ouvir sambas de João Nogueira, curtir Hotel Califórnia<br />
com Eagles, Debaixo <strong>do</strong>s caracóis com o Roberto, Five hundred miles com Peter, Paul and Mary, verdadeiras pérolas <strong>do</strong>s<br />
Beatles, Abba, Cartola, Lupicínio Rodrigues, Tião Carreiro e Pardinho, Agostinho <strong>do</strong>s Santos, Elis Regina, Moreira da Silva,<br />
Almir Sater, Sivuca, Gonzaguinha, Demônios da Garoa...<br />
Músicas que não se ouve durante a programação <strong>do</strong> dia, mas que são apresentadas todas as noites <strong>nas</strong> peque<strong>nas</strong><br />
emissoras de <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias.<br />
É certo, que para militarmos <strong>nas</strong> escutas em <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias, temos que ter muita paciência com as emissoras religiosas,<br />
que hoje são em número muito grande, as quais chegam a apresentar quase toda a programação diária sem se identificar,<br />
acredito que pesquisan<strong>do</strong> as <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias, fazen<strong>do</strong> DX no horário da Gray Line, e posteriormente fazen<strong>do</strong> radio escuta,<br />
curtin<strong>do</strong> a programação de uma mais voltada para o sertanejo de raiz, outra voltada para o Flash Back, ou alguma que<br />
apresente MPB, teremos condições de fazer aquele maravilhoso relax pessoal, de final de dia, algo que somente o rádio<br />
pode nos proporcionar.<br />
As <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias, se apresentam hoje como um rico filão dexista, desde que o opera<strong>do</strong>r tenha atenção dedicação e<br />
paciência, bem como poderá ser um maravilhoso mun<strong>do</strong> para o lazer pessoal, ao se curtir programações que julgamos<br />
jamais teríamos oportunidade de ouvir no rádio.<br />
É por isso que exortamos to<strong>do</strong>s a sempre darem uma pesquisada no dial das <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias...<br />
...pedras muito preciosas podem ser encontradas nesta banda.<br />
Um abraço a to<strong>do</strong>s,<br />

Caros amigos,<br />
Em mais um Navegan<strong>do</strong> <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais, estamos de volta, com novas informações, notícias e dicas a to<strong>do</strong>s os amantes de<br />
nossas queridas <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais. Desejamos a to<strong>do</strong>s uma agradável e proveitosa leitura e que nos forneçam informações<br />
de retorno sobre suas opiniões á cerca desta nossa publicação.<br />
OT- Estu<strong>do</strong> e Pesquisa<br />
Nesta semana o nosso OT-Estu<strong>do</strong> e Pesquisa abordarfá um fato novo que está surgin<strong>do</strong> em nosso meio, chama<strong>do</strong><br />
dexismo ULtraLIght. E mais até que isso, por se tratar, aqui de dexismo ULtraLIght em <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais.<br />
Como temos nota<strong>do</strong> <strong>nas</strong> listas de registro das escutas <strong>do</strong>s dexistas, estão ocorren<strong>do</strong> muita captações, interessantes,<br />
da recente atividade Ultralight, que é fazer dexismo através de receptores simples, verdadeiros Walkmans, que utilizam<br />
somente fones, por não possuírem nem alto falantes, e são alimenta<strong>do</strong>s por duas pilhas peque<strong>nas</strong> AA.<br />
Esta modalidade UltraLight, está se desenvolven<strong>do</strong> muito rapidamente, principalmente nos Esta<strong>do</strong>s Uni<strong>do</strong>s, mas com<br />
exemplos significativos também de dexistas da América <strong>do</strong> Sul.<br />
Nesta semana, estivemos observan<strong>do</strong> as diversas listas que assinamos e nelas constatamos a existência de LOGs<br />
UltraLight, de <strong>Ondas</strong> Médias e de <strong>Ondas</strong> <strong>Curtas</strong>.<br />
Nestes LOGs de <strong>Ondas</strong> <strong>Curtas</strong>, resolvermos selecionar aqueles que se referem á <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais, e os apr4esentamos<br />
nesta nossa seção de hoje, para mostrar a to<strong>do</strong>s, que não é aquele receptor top table, que nos custou os “olhos da<br />
cara”, que será o fator mais importante para conseguirmos boas escutas, pois estes aficiona<strong>do</strong>s <strong>do</strong> UltraLight, estão nos<br />
mostran<strong>do</strong> que utilizan<strong>do</strong> aqueles mini receptores, que a maioria utiliza para ouvir música enquanto caminha, também se<br />
pode ser escutas fenomenais e de longa distância.<br />
O dexismno UltraLight está quebran<strong>do</strong> diversos paradigmas que temos enraiza<strong>do</strong>s em nossa cultura dexista, transforman<strong>do</strong><br />
em mentiras, diversas afirmações que ouvimos muito no dia a dia de nosso hobby, tais como:<br />
- Não existe mini receptor com sensibilidade e seletividade boa para se fazer dx<br />
- O receptor é o fator mais importante num dx.<br />
- O preço <strong>do</strong> receptor é proporcional a sua competência e capacidade.<br />
- Mini receptor de duas pilhas somente capta emissora local.<br />
Hoje os dexistas já mostraram que todas estas frases são falsas , pois temos recordes fantásticos em termos de distância<br />
entre a emissora e o receptor Ultra Light, <strong>do</strong>s quais, graças a divulgação feita pelo dexista Horácio Nigro, na Condig LIst,<br />
repasso aos senhores.<br />
Estes LOGs Recordistas, foram feitos com estes mini receptores, e organiza<strong>do</strong>s, dia 11 de abril passa<strong>do</strong>, de Recordes Ultra Light:<br />

Caros amigos, neste nosso espaço OT-News de hoje, apresento as últimas notícias ocorridas no mun<strong>do</strong> das <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais.<br />
VENDE-SE: Rádio Difusora de Poços de Caldas<br />
O engenheiro/dexista Sarmento Campos, manteve conversa telefônica com o Sr. Rogério Cioffi, Diretor da Rádio Difusora<br />
de Poços de Caldas (4.945 kHz), e foi informa<strong>do</strong> que estão queren<strong>do</strong> se desfazer da freqüência de 4.945 kHz.<br />
Acrescentou até que, caso não consigam vender a freqüência, a diretoria da emissora pretende alugar o canal a interessa<strong>do</strong>s,<br />
que possam enviar o áudio até Poços de Caldas, por meio de algum link ou por streaming na Internet.<br />
Informou que os interessa<strong>do</strong>s devem fazer contato pelo telefone número 55 35 3722.1530 ou pelo endereço eletrônico<br />

OT- SHACK<br />
Caros amigos, nosso OT-Shack apresenta, nesta edição, uma mnotagem que será muito interessante áqueles que montaram<br />
a antena G5RV da edcição passada. Trata-se de um acopla<strong>do</strong>r de ante<strong>nas</strong>, muito eficiente para atuar de 3 a 30 MHz.<br />
Adalberto Marques de Azeve<strong>do</strong><br />
Barbacena – MG<br />
Um simples e eficiente Acopla<strong>do</strong>r para <strong>Ondas</strong> <strong>Curtas</strong><br />
Apresentamos a antena G5RV, uma antena praticamente multibandas, porém, tal como afirmamos naquele artigo, trata-se<br />
de uma antena que precisa trabalhar em conjunto com um acopla<strong>do</strong>r.<br />
Mas, qual acopla<strong>do</strong>r devemos utilizar, visto que existem uma infinidade de modelos e montagens povoan<strong>do</strong> a internet <br />
Fomos ao passa<strong>do</strong> da SWL, naqueles anos <strong>do</strong>ura<strong>do</strong>s, quan<strong>do</strong> a Rádio Netherlands, nos brindava com maravilhosos<br />
programas, e tinham o salutar hábito de enviar informações técnicas aos seus ouvintes.<br />
Nesta época a emissora costumava nos enviar folhetos com detalhes preciosos sobre a montagem de ante<strong>nas</strong> e acessórios<br />
de apoio ás escutas.<br />
E foi num destes folhetos antigos, que encontrei um esquema simples de um acopla<strong>do</strong>r, que a nos atrás montei e que<br />
sempre proporcionou ótimo desempenho <strong>nas</strong> minhas escutas.<br />
O esquema era<br />
simplifica<strong>do</strong> e assim resolvi<br />
fazer um detalhamento<br />
maior da montagem,<br />
confeccionan<strong>do</strong><br />
desenhos, onde a tarefa<br />
da montagem ficasse<br />
mais fácil de ser realizada,<br />
mesmo por um leigo em<br />
eletrônica.<br />
Este acopla<strong>do</strong>, trabalha<br />
muito bem numa faixa de<br />
freqüência compreendida<br />
entre 3 e 30 MHz, o que<br />
atende sobremaneira as<br />
escutas em <strong>Ondas</strong> <strong>Curtas</strong>,<br />
chegan<strong>do</strong> até a atuar<br />
numa parte da banda de<br />
<strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais.<br />
Na figura seguinte<br />
mostramos o esquema<br />
eletrônico <strong>do</strong> acopla<strong>do</strong>r.
Na figura seguinte, vemos a disposição física básica <strong>do</strong> circuito, que nos mostra tratar-se de um acopla<strong>do</strong>r em “T “, com<br />
<strong>do</strong>is capacitores variáveis.<br />
Podemos afirmar que a “alma” deste acopla<strong>do</strong>r, está na bobina de sintonia, que formará a perna central <strong>do</strong> “T “, interligan<strong>do</strong><br />
o circuito á terra.<br />
Esta bobina será formada por diversos Taps, os quais `serão comutáveis através de uma chave seletora rotativa, muito<br />
conhecida como “chave de <strong>Ondas</strong>”.<br />
No desenho seguinte, fornecemos os detalhes da montagem desta bobina, e como conectá-la no circuito e também os<br />
detalhes de seus diversos taps, que deverão ser comuta<strong>do</strong>s pela chave seletora rotativa.<br />
Com estes detalhes, você poderá montar este simples e eficiente acopla<strong>do</strong>r de ante<strong>nas</strong>, que será um excelente apoio <strong>nas</strong><br />
suas escutas entre 3 e 30 MHz, quan<strong>do</strong> estiver atuan<strong>do</strong> sobre uma antena G5RV.<br />
Uma boa montagem a to<strong>do</strong>s.<br />
Caros amigos, ao final de mais uma coluna “Navegan<strong>do</strong> <strong>Ondas</strong> Tropicais”, continuamos solicitan<strong>do</strong> o retorno das opiniões,<br />
críticas e sugestões á coluna, através <strong>do</strong> E-Mail: adalberto.azeve<strong>do</strong>@gmail.com<br />

BIAFRA [non]. Only had time for a quick check on the portable of 17520, Friday April 24 at 1952, and could barely detect a<br />
signal there, presumably still V. of Biafra International for the third week in a row. Not on 15665 or 11885, anyway.<br />
CHINA. Firedrake check April 25 at 1315: yes on 9000, no on 8400.<br />
RUSSIA [and non]. Looking for V. of Russia English to the Americas, UT April 25. Not much making it after 0100 --- trace on<br />
9890, not 9665, and no 9480 which is on some skeds, presumably intended to be German relay like A-08. After 0200, 9480<br />
not heard either, but there was a trace on 15425, couldn`t be sure it was VOR English, presumably from FE site, and much<br />
weaker than RTI via WYFR 15<strong>440</strong>. It would help if VOR/RUVR would put up accurate, complete and non-contradictory skeds<br />
on its own website. By 0600, unlike the night before when even 21 MHz had a signal, everything above 10 MHz was dead.<br />
U S A [non]. VOA In<strong>do</strong>nesian, 9945, Saturday April 25 at 1405 with rapid DJ, bits of interview with a female pop artiste in<br />
English, before voice-overs in In<strong>do</strong>nesian, still past 1430 and at 1432 a bit of Sousa. Per Aoki this is Thu-Fri-Sat only:<br />
9945 VOICE OF AMERICA 1400-1500 567 In<strong>do</strong>nesian 250 200 Tinang PHL 12037E 1521N IBB a09.
VENEZUELA [non]. Another Sunday with no trace of Aló Presidente via Cuba on new listed 12010, or any of the other frequencies,<br />
at 1600 UT check April 26.<br />
WESTERN SAHARA [non]. 6300, R. Nacional de la RASD, already on at 0600 April 25 with anthem by amateur/military<br />
band, 0601 sign-on in Arabic, but modulation just barely audible, then into its peculiar version of<br />
Qur`aning at full modulation.<br />
ALASKA. KNLS, 7355, April 28 at 1413 in English with Stories from the Bible in Contemporary English, ID; good signal.<br />
Could not hear the other transmitter in Chinese on 9795.<br />
CHINA. Firedrake, very good, and equal level on 8400 and 9000, April 27 [not 24 as in DXLD 9-036] at 1321 check, so I<br />
`enjoyed` the music for a while. At 1400 monitoring 9000, as usual went to open carrier; 1421 recheck both still going but<br />
weakening. On other occasions when both frequencies are on, one has been much weaker than the other, so something<br />
must be changing dynamically as to sites, powers and/or azimuths.<br />
Firedrake check April 28: at 1341 fair, about same level on 8400 and 9000; at 1423 found VG Firedrake on new 15600, //<br />
weakening 9000 and 8400. At 24 past each hour the segment features a ramshorn-like instrument, slow with some pauses,<br />
then into slow drumming, before building up to breakneck percussion again. This is when one might be able to detect its<br />
victim underneath, but could not. I quickly scanned the entire 13-19 MHz range but did not find any other FD. Ron Howard<br />
has been hearing 15600 12-13 hours earlier, so it may be on long hours in response to Sound of Hope which it seems has<br />
stepped up transmissions and frequency-jumping. Keith Perron says this time of year before Tiananmen anniversary is<br />
when ChiCom jamming reaches a peak, and additional censorship is imposed on CRI programming.<br />
HAWAII [and non]. AFN, Pearl Harbor, 10320-USB, barely audible broadcast talk as I was scanning for Firedrake, April 28<br />
at 1416. Not // Florida 12133.5, but seemed // to equally weak 5765 Guam. Aoki lists the power for each of these as 3 kW.<br />
INDONESIA. VOI, yet another Tuesday with input from RRI Banjarmasin, Kalimantan. 9525 at 1320 April 28, usual features<br />
but interspersed continuity is conversation between YL in Jak() and OM in Banj; 1330 Focus, on the VP elexion, which is<br />
apparently separate from the presidential; 1338 a feature about Banjarmasin, but too much accent and too much noise level<br />
to make much out of it.<br />
NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS. RFA Tinian, 17880 was audible again in nightmiddle, April 27 at 0520 in Chinese, //<br />
17615 but not 17640, which was in use on April 24 --- only Could also detect a carrier on 21550, on YB-400 only with internal<br />
wire antenna during storm. April 28 around 0530, 17880 again detectable.<br />
PHILIPPINES. 9700, Monday April 27 at 1325 weak audio but a big het; seems like one carrier is on the low side. 1328 audio<br />
improved; not helped by SSB intruder around 9696. 1330 sounds like Vietnamese, anyway with ``phat-thanhs``. Per Aoki<br />
this is FEBC, 50 kW from Iba site due west in various minolity languages between 1300 and 1400 in a convoluted schedule<br />
depending on day of week. On Mondays supposed to go from Muong to Cham at 1330. Eibi says it`s Eastern Cham. Could<br />
the het be jamming Iba may well be off-frequency. Per online listings, nothing else is intentionally scheduled on 9700 at<br />
this hour, except maybe Sofia in DRM.<br />
PHILIPPINES. VOA, 9760, April 28 at 1405 news in English but occasional audio breakups and transmission also cut off for<br />
several seconds. Aoki shows between 13 and 15 there are two 250 kW Tinang transmitters here, one at 21 degrees usward<br />
and the other 270 degrees westward, so when one fails, VOA may still be heard more weakly.<br />
RUSSIA [and non]. VOR check at 0302 UT April 28:<br />
7395, gone, replaced by 9735, q.v.<br />
9665, VOR English UNDER CRI in Spanish via Brasília, with fast rippling SAH. This is a monumental failure in frequency<br />
management, a collision going on year after year at 01-03 and 03-04, plus additional periods of open carrier from Brasil<br />
9735, VOR Spanish via French Guiana, very good, ex-7395<br />
9890, fluttery signal in Russian; scheduled earlier in English<br />
5425, VOR English, good via Far East<br />
Another check at 0422:<br />
9665, VOR in Spanish, now QRMless; apparently new, not on schedule<br />
9735, VOR still Spanish via GUF, not English as claimed by some <strong>do</strong>wnunderite during this hour<br />
13775, VOR English, good, having switched FE site from 15425.<br />
U S A. WEWN has made some frequency changes, upwards for summer, altho they claim that the current schedule at http://<br />
www.ewtn.com/radio/freq.htm went into effect March 29 --- not true! For example, new 12050 in Spanish // 11550, April 27<br />
at 1315 with religious discussion.<br />
U S A. Haven`t heard KJES on 11715 in weeks, but there again April 28 at 1420: S9+20 signal but barely audible<br />
modulation, adult OM with catechisms in English, mixed with someone singing. Once again this seems to<br />
correlate with sporadic E opening on HF if not VHF, as WWCR 13845 was strong vs usual barely audible, and<br />
15825 was poor vs usual inaudible.<br />
CHINA [and non]. 15635, at 0616 April 29, two programs in Chinese mixing. Per Aoki, this is a R. Free Asia Chinese frequency<br />
at 0300-0700, 500 kW, 152 degrees via Irkutsk, RUSSIA, plus ChiCom jamming. I cannot be sure whether I was<br />
hearing RFA at all or just <strong>do</strong>uble jamming. See also USA [non] 11605.<br />
Firedrake check April 29: At 1436, just barely audible on 13970, where we used to hear it months ago; At 1438 stronger on<br />
15150, and even stronger on 15600, all // and presumably against inaudible Sound of Hope. At 1<strong>440</strong> I thought I heard a<br />
couple of words spoken among all the music. At 1451, still audible on two more //, 8400 and 9000.
CUBA. RHC must have changed their program feed routing, and/or transmitter site arrangement for English, checked at<br />
0622 April 29. Previously, 6000 and 6010 had been an echo apart, but now they are synchronized, altho 6000 is still modulated<br />
very much less than 6010. 6000 also has a squeal audible on the low side. 6140 is also undermodulated, 6060 normal<br />
modulation, and all of them synchronized. BTW, after about four days, the outdated schedule on their redesigned website<br />
has been replaced by more or less correct one.<br />
CUBA [non]. <strong>Radio</strong> República added another broadcast. Tnx to tip from José Miguel Romero, Spain that it was very strong<br />
on 9840 during the 21 UT hour April 27, I started checking the frequency April 28. During the 19 UT hour, WHRI was still on it;<br />
nothing heard after 2000. At 2115-2135 I was getting R. República, only fair signal with deep fades, no jamming, so suspect<br />
UK site instead of Canada. 2200 ID with no frequency announcement, ``Entre Jóvenes`` show. Not heard at 2302 recheck. So<br />
schedule on 9840 is tentatively 2100-2300, then over to jammed 9545. I expect the jamming on 9840 will start ASAP.<br />
Lingering jamming against R. Martí, 7365, instead bothering WHRI at 0627 April 29, ID in English with contact info<br />
atop jam pulses.<br />
1431 April 29 on 12000, monitored RHC frequency announcement. Got most of it right, but omitted 11760, which I quickly<br />
confirmed was really on the air as usual.<br />
GERMANY [non]. DRM on 6125-6130-6135 outstix like a sorethumb in middle of 49m, April 29 at 0623. Surely strong<br />
enough to decode, altho listed as DW English via Sines, PORTUGAL, 0600-0700, 90 kW at 30 degrees, far from usward.<br />
TAIWAN. 11875 in soft In<strong>do</strong>nesian talk about saxophone, then sax music, 1418 April 29; 1428 ID as RTI. Good signal in the<br />
clear. Per Aoki it`s 250 kW, 205 degrees from Tainan at 1400-1500.<br />
U S A [and non]. KJES, Va<strong>do</strong> NM, again audible April 29, at 1415 on 11715, YL proclaiming Biblical quotes, immediately<br />
repeated robotically by OM. Very undermodulated still, and also with SAH, which per Aoki is VOA English via Tinang, PHIL-<br />
IPPINES at 1400-1500, 50 kW, 220 degrees.<br />
U S A [non]. 9760 via Tinang, Philippines, VOA English at 1250 April 29, report on Kokomo vs auto industry cuts, 1255 USG editorial<br />
on LTTE. But marred by audio dropouts every few seconds. Standard remarx about weakest link, anyone paying attention, need for<br />
backup feeds. Same programming repeated two hours later at 1450 without the dropouts; at least they have redundancy.<br />
11605, April 29 at 1315, a total mess, must be at least three programs mixing. Two of them would be ChiCom jamming as<br />
the only thing really scheduled is R. Free Asia in Tibetan via TINIAN, 250 kW, 309 degrees at 1300-1400. Recheck at 1414<br />
found Vietnamese in the clear, which is also RFA, but now 250 kW, 250 degrees via Tanshui, TAIWAN, at 1400-1500, per<br />
Aoki. Moral: Tibetans should learn Vietnamese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)<br />
CHINA [and non]. Not only <strong>do</strong>es the new Firedrake frequency 15600 block the newly discovered RHC mixing product in our<br />
mornings, Commies vs Commies, but at 2145 UT I was again hearing Firedrake on 15600, now underneath some religionist<br />
in Spanish, which would be WFYR 44 degrees to Europe at 1900-2245 including this hour in Spanish. Per Aoki, other collateral<br />
damage victims on 15600 are Iran in English at 1030-1127, and CRI in Malaysian via Kunming at 1230-1327.<br />
East Asian conditions were excellent the morning of April 30, on 9-12 MHz but not higher: 13970 Firedrake was just barely<br />
audible at 1305, but not on 15600; and 13970 was missing at next check 1312. Perhaps the ChiCom determined that Sound<br />
of Hope was off the air by then. At 1338, FD on 9000 was good but much weaker on // 8400. Numerous CNR1 program<br />
jammers were to be found inside the 9 and 11 MHz bands, such as 9605, 9845, 11775, 11785, 12040.<br />
CUBA. Altho previously RHC English on 6000 and 6010 were found to be synchronized, they were again an echo apart with<br />
different feed routings when checked at 0528 UT April 30.<br />
My local noise level abated, I fear only temporarily, April 30 at 1312 so I could make out RHC in Spanish on 13880, the weak<br />
leapfrog mixing product of 13680 over 13780.<br />
CUBA [non]. R. República`s new 9840, via UK Survived another day without being hit by the DentroCuban Jamming Command,<br />
as still in the clear at 2145 check April 29; presumably running 2100-2300.<br />
KOREA NORTH [and non]. 9665v, April 30 at 1347, harmonious Juche music from KCBS, low het no <strong>do</strong>ubt from Mongolia<br />
as confirmed by Martien Groot, Netherlands. VOM might have picked a better new frequency. VOK also inbooming in stilted<br />
English, different music on 9335 and 11710.<br />
SOLOMON ISLANDS. 9541.5, giveaway off-frequency for SIBC, making a good het with China 9540.0, April 30 at 1329 during<br />
above normal FE conditions. I was able to make out a bit of BBC English and // 9740 Singapore altho not synchronized<br />
during news headlines on the half-hour. But at 1332 they went their separate ways. I wonder which BBC stream feed SIBC<br />
is getting to relay I also wonder why they bother as BBCWS is surely better audible on several of its own frequencies in the<br />
Pacific during these hours, but no complaints as this at least audiblizes Solomons even unto Central North America.<br />
THAILAND [and non]. 9455, R. Thailand via U<strong>do</strong>rn, April 30 at 1336 in Thai, but with co-channel QRM, off-frequency enough<br />
to make a rumble. Seems to be another Asian language! 1345 heard the QRM giving an address in USA, and YFR theme.<br />
Theme again at 1358. R. Thailand also had QRM from the Brother Scare spur on 9453 from WWRB 9385, no thanks to Dave<br />
Frantz, and as usual that was even stronger on the 9317 match. Thailand has English after 1400, but altho the co-channel<br />
was off by then, reception deteriorated, as Thailand switched from favorable 54 degree azimuth to unfavorable 132.<br />
Per Aoki, the offender is YFR in Vietnamese via Tainan, Taiwan, 1300-1400, 100 kW at 267 degrees. So during that hour we<br />
have Taiwan and Thailand crossing beams on 9455. During the first semihour, Thailand is 54 in Japanese, then 30 in Mandarin.<br />
Taiwan transmissions are forbidden by the ChiCom to appear in HFCC, so IBB, which handles frequency management for NBT<br />
Thailand, may have assumed there is no collision. If one actually monitors the channel as far away as Oklahoma, or consults<br />
the unofficial Aoki list, one learns the truth. Perhaps IBB should also get together with the YFR frequency manager.
ZAMBIA [and non]. 13590, April 30 at 1310 a guy in English sounding rather like Keith Perron until he started going on and<br />
on about God --- i.e. CVC Lusaka at 315 degrees toward Upper Michigan. But with co-channel from something unintelligible.<br />
That must be VOR Mongolian service via Novosibirsk, as scheduled with 100 kW, 110 degrees per Aoki.<br />
CUBA. RHC, 11820 in Spanish, at 2222 check April 30, much stronger than // 11800, altho 11820 is for Europe. Little did I know<br />
that this was the farewell broadcast of RHC on 11820, as José Miguel Romero reports that per Arnie Coro, RHC moves May<br />
1 to 11770 for this European transmission in Portuguese, Arabic and Spanish at 2000-2300. Arnie has not notified me directly,<br />
nor thanked me for bringing their collision with Saudi Arabia immediately to attention! How will 11770 be Nothing there that I<br />
can find, not much on 11765, but it may be tough for Barbi Bridges from a Lesser Antille on 11775 until 2215v.<br />
16m was cooperating at 2212 April 30 with RHC on new 17660 in French, good signal but distorted modulation; no ID needed<br />
as who else would be talking about Committees for the Defense of the Revolution About same signal level on 17705<br />
in Portuguese, but more distorted.<br />
9640 confirmed as the new Mesa Re<strong>do</strong>nda frequency, ex-9820, apparently just getting under way at 2230 April 30; undermodulated.<br />
Nominal span is 22-24, but I think it usually starts at 2230, and not necessarily on the air every weekday. I wonder<br />
how the ChiCom feel about this overlapping their own Spanish broadcast daily from Kashi to Spain until 2300 on 9640.<br />
CUBA [non]. Altho <strong>Radio</strong> República`s new 9840 had been heard the past three days, both before and after 2200, it was<br />
missing on April 30 when checked at 2207. Nor was there any jamming on the frequency. Possibly it was still on during the<br />
2100 hour, but more likely a brief test period has ended. A quick scan of other bands 7-18 MHz failed to find a replacement<br />
for 9840. I was standing by on the other frequency 9545, which at 2259 already had jamming ramping up, and a few seconds<br />
after 2300 on came R. República with theme, ID, no frequencies mentioned, and into ``Encuentro Informativo``.<br />
EGYPT. R. Cairo, 11590 in English to NAm, April 30 at 2310 with Arabic music, undermodulated but sufficient. At 2315 timesignal<br />
17 seconds late, so why bother if you can`t <strong>do</strong> better than that News march theme, and YL with presumed news<br />
in English, but now the modulation is so low I can`t make anything out; the propagational fading is louder than she is from<br />
the speaker. Par for the course for this totally incompetent station.<br />
ROMANIA [and non]. As I tuned across RRI in English on 9790, Thursday April 30 at 2227, they were just starting their<br />
mailbag program, reading a report from one Joseph Padula in Mont Albert, Australia. This fellow born in 1939, touts his<br />
professionalism, an award he got, his restored California bungalow. I suspect he is very closely related to Robert J. Padula,<br />
a.k.a. Bob. But why would anybody switch from a perfectly good first name to a middle name Perhaps he is starting over<br />
his QSL-collecting career under a new identity.<br />
RRI was also well audible when checked earlier at 2213 on // 9675 and 11940, the latter bothered by buzz bleeding over up to<br />
11950 from the DentroCuban Jamming Command on 11930 vs Martí, but not on the low side. Commies vs ex-Commies!.<br />
SAUDI ARABIA. 11915 with Qur`an, fair with SAH April 30 at 2212, but NO BUZZ. This has often been reported with buzz,<br />
same BSKSA Riyadh transmitter as we hear on 15435 at 15-18 and on several others before and after. It is sporadic, and I<br />
<strong>do</strong>ubt the problem has been permanently fixed.<br />
U S A. WWRB, 9385 with plus and minus 68 kHz spurs on approx. 9317, and weaker 9453, April 30 at 2237 as Alex Scourby<br />
was ponderously pontificating. With E-W longwire aimed at Manchester TN and preselector peaked on each frequency, I<br />
read the FRG-7 S-meter as S9+22 on 9385, +15 on 9317 and +12 on 9453.<br />
U S A. WRMI still has not resumed weekday afternoon broadcasts on 9955. Nothing there, no jamming either, at 2207<br />
check April 30. Jeff White says they are still waiting on some maintenance to be <strong>do</strong>ne. Unless time is sold, the 8-hour<br />
period of 16-24 UT M-F is scheduled to be filled by World <strong>Radio</strong> Network relays in English, as I assume it still is on<br />
WRMI`s webcast. Maybe in May.<br />
U S A [non]. Sem Limites, the CVC Brazilian service show of snippets of popular classical music bits mixed with evangelism,<br />
on 15410 via Chile, April 30 at 2239 until 2257 when cut abruptly to rock music. This show is a travesty, not presenting any<br />
piece in its entirety, just chopping them up and cutting them off abruptly, such as at 2248. These people have no appreciation<br />
or respect for classical music, but are just using it for one hour a day to try to reach a different audience than otherwise.<br />
Here`s their hard-sell announcer: http://www.radiocvc.com/Grfx/Jose001.jpg<br />
Per schedule at http://www.radiocvc.com/programas2008.htm this is supposed to be at 20-21 hours Brasília time, and so<br />
I had expected it to be at 2300 UT, its original time before Brazil started fooling with DST. That ended this year already on<br />
February 15, but apparently CVC did not shift its Miami-based programming one UT hour later to keep it at the same local<br />
time in parts of Brazil going on and off DST! So it is still running at 22-23 UT.<br />
Despite my disgust, I kept listening for a while, as this could be the final SW broadcast of CVC in Portuguese, which was previously<br />
reported to be ending at Aprilend for financial reasons, tho continuing on internet and satellite feed to affiliates. Yet to be<br />
confirmed, but just try to find any mention of their last remaining SW frequency on website. We`ll find out on May Day.<br />
VENEZUELA [non]. RNVCI via CUBA, 13680 // 15250, VG April 30 at 2302 as YL is opening in stilted English with program<br />
summary, the latter part of the hour to be back in Spanish. Gave date April 30. Then starting with ``Informative Short News``<br />
about Venezuela preparing for swine flu tho no cases yet.<br />
CHILE. Despite reports in April that the Brazilian service of CVC, A Sua Voz, would cease SW at the end of the month, it was<br />
still there on 15410 May 1, at 1336 check, Portuguese mixing with Hausa from DW via Rwanda, 5 Hz away.<br />
Other collisions are 15-17 <strong>Radio</strong> Farda via Lampertheim, 1730-1900 VOA English via Greenville, but after that should<br />
be in the clear until closing at 0100, or is it 0200 So did the service get a reprieve because of Brazilian SW listeners`<br />
objexions, or what.
CUBA. It`s a big day in Cuba, not only MayDay, but the official 48th anniversary of RHC (which started earlier in 1961 as Onda<br />
Corta Experimental Cubana; I remember hearing that from the outset.) At 1326 on 13780 I found a phone interview in Spanish<br />
with Arnie Coro in progress, as he was recounting the foundation of RHC in which he was heavily involved, how they started<br />
out without any studios but were provided space on the fifth and sixth floors of <strong>Radio</strong> Progreso (where they still are). Didn`t<br />
yet have steel towers in place for anten<strong>nas</strong> at Bauta. The first frequency was 11760, still beloved and still in use.<br />
Arnie asserted that he had already received congratulatory messages from English speaking listeners in the USA, where tnx to<br />
the journalistic quality of RHC, people are better informed! He is missing the celebrations in the Plaza de la Revolución as he<br />
is staying home to monitor to be sure everything is going well, and says all transmitters are well-modulated (if so, that would be<br />
a first!). Ended at 1333 and more lo-fi phone reports from correspondents around the country about local celebrations.<br />
The interview with Arnie would normally repeat in the 17 UT hour on the webcast-only playback of Despertar con Cuba, but might<br />
be pre-empted today for live coverage of the festivities. Still one might tune in earlier than 1726 to try to hear the rest of it. I also<br />
would not be surprised if there are additional SW broadcasts today when RHC normally takes a siesta between 15 and 20 UT.<br />
U S A. VOA News, 9760 via Philippines, VG May 1 at 1305 with in-depth report by Dan Robinson, about Somali piracy, many<br />
clips of comments from Capitol Hill.<br />
One of the many `improvements` in VOA`s website redesign is that a gallery of its English-language broadcasters is no longer to be<br />
found. Just these 12 mostly non-English despite the word in the URL: http://www.voanews.com/english/About/talent-gallery.cfm<br />
This news hour is presented by one Philip Alexia (spelling). But that name, nor any other likely spelling, is not even on the long<br />
drop-<strong>do</strong>wn list of correspondent names where one can search out text reports via http://www.voanews.com/english/search.cfm<br />
But then, he`s an anchor, not a correspondent. He puts a lot of expression into his announcing, so much that it may be a<br />
turnoff to some listeners; I wonder if he`s a refugee from commercial radio.<br />

NEW SURVEY AVAILABLE:<br />
The DOMESTIC BROADCASTING SURVEY 11 (DBS-11), May 2009<br />
edited by DSWCI Chairman, Anker Petersen.<br />
ISSN 1399-8218<br />
The 52 years old DSWCI which counts experienced DX-ers in 33 countries all over the world as members, has just issued<br />
the 11th Edition of its annual Domestic Broadcasting Survey. This survey is divided into four parts:<br />
Part 1: The 37th edition of the Tropical Bands Survey covering all ACTIVE broadcasting stations on 2300 - 5700 kHz.<br />
Part 2: Domestic stations on international shortwave bands above 5700 kHz broadcasting to a <strong>do</strong>mestic audience.<br />
Part 3: All ACTIVE Clandestine shortwave stations are now listed in one frequencyorder with schedules and identifications.<br />
Part 4: Deleted frequencies between 2 and 30 MHz which have not been reported heard during the past five years, but<br />
may reappear.<br />
This new Survey is based upon many official sources and DX-bulletins. A09 schedules are included when available.<br />
In order to make the DBS reliable, our own monitors around the world have checked throughout the period May 2008 - April<br />
2009, if each of the 1000 station frequencies is on the air. ACTIVE stations are marked with an A (”Regular”), B (”Irregular”)<br />
or C (”Sporadic”) in the list. D means ”Likely inactive”.<br />
A unique feature is the right column called ”Last log”. It shows the last month and year before DBS deadline on April 27, 2009<br />
when the particular station was reported logged by a DX-er somewhere in the world. This is another way of indicating the<br />
current audibility of the station. To avoid inactive stations in this DBS, most frequencies which have not been heard during<br />
the past year, have been deleted and are moved to Part 4.<br />
Other useful features for easy identification (ID) are the parallel frequencies and reference to Station ID slogans.<br />
Three sample extracts from the DBS-11 are shown the next page. Reviews can be found on www.dswci.org<br />
All buyers of DBS-11 will get a username and password to the monthly updates on the tropical bands published as "Tropical Bands<br />
Monitor" on our website. The similar data from 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 are available at www.dswci.org/tbm to anybody.<br />
The 35 pages A-4 size DBS-11 is available by e-mail as pdf-format (about 452 KB). A limited number is also available<br />
printed on paper.<br />

Programa mais antigo <strong>do</strong> Rádio Catarinense.<br />
A Rádio Marconi, ZYT-22, de Urussanga, que há mais de 55 anos, opera em 780 kHz e tem uma<br />
área de abrangência de 17 municípios <strong>do</strong> Sul Catarinense, apresenta em sua grade de programação,<br />
o conheci<strong>do</strong> programa “An<strong>do</strong>rinha Mensageira”, considera<strong>do</strong> o programa mais antigo <strong>do</strong> Rádio<br />
Catarinense, ainda no ar.<br />
Engenheiro cria nova tecnologia para ante<strong>nas</strong><br />
Um engenheiro <strong>do</strong> Departamento de Física da Universidade Rhode Island, Esta<strong>do</strong>s Uni<strong>do</strong>s, Rob<br />
Vincent, confirmou mais uma vez que a necessidade é a mãe da invenção. Rádio-ama<strong>do</strong>r desde<br />
criança, ele sempre sofreu com a impossibilidade de montar uma grande antena em sua casa.<br />
“O Cálice Sagra<strong>do</strong> da tecnologia de ante<strong>nas</strong> é a criação de uma pequena antena com alta eficiência<br />
e banda larga,” explica Vincent. “De acor<strong>do</strong> com a teoria atual, você tem que deixar de la<strong>do</strong> um <strong>do</strong>s<br />
três - tamanho, eficiência ou largura de banda - para obter os outros <strong>do</strong>is.” Após décadas de testes,<br />
combina<strong>do</strong>s com uma experiência de 30 anos como engenheiro, Vicent inventou uma nova tecnologia<br />
de ante<strong>nas</strong> que é revolucionária. Suas ante<strong>nas</strong> monopolo de carga distribuída são peque<strong>nas</strong>, têm alta<br />
eficiência e mantêm uma largura de banda de boa a excelente. E têm múltiplas aplicações. Com esta
tecnologia, será possível pelo menos <strong>do</strong>brar o alcance <strong>do</strong>s rádios utiliza<strong>do</strong>s pela polícia, bombeiros e<br />
pessoal de segurança. Outras aplicações possíveis são: ante<strong>nas</strong> portáteis para uso militar, navios e até<br />
monitores de bebês. Até as RFID, etiquetas inteligentes que deverão substituir os códigos de barras de<br />
produtos, deverão ser beneficiadas. “Ela pode até mesmo tornar o relógio de pulso <strong>do</strong> Dick Tracy, com<br />
todas as suas características, como acesso à Internet, uma possibilidade,” afirma o inventor.<br />
Os testes confirmaram que as ante<strong>nas</strong> de Vincent têm entre um nono e um terço <strong>do</strong> tamanho das<br />
ante<strong>nas</strong> comerciais de mesmo desempenho. Normalmente as ante<strong>nas</strong> peque<strong>nas</strong> têm uma eficência<br />
entre 8 e 15 por cento. Mas as novas mini-ante<strong>nas</strong>, criadas a partir de um programa de computa<strong>do</strong>r que<br />
simula seu comportamento, atingem entre 80 e 100 por cento de eficiência. A Universidade requereu a<br />
patente da invenção e deverá licenciá-la para que as novas ante<strong>nas</strong> possam chegar ao merca<strong>do</strong>.<br />

Baixa atividade solar intriga os cientistas.<br />
O portal de notícias da UOL, no endereço http://noticias.uol.com.br/bbc/2009/04/21/ult2282u1659.jhtm<br />
, divulga um texto <strong>do</strong> BBC Brasil.com, no qual apresenta que os cientistas estão intriga<strong>do</strong>s com a atual<br />
baixa atividade solar.
O sol passa por um de seus perío<strong>do</strong>s mais quietos por quase um século, praticamente sem manchas<br />
solares (explosões na atmosfera solar) e emitin<strong>do</strong> poucas chamas.<br />
O sol normalmente passa por ciclos de atividade de 11 anos. Em seu pico, ele tem uma atmosfera<br />
efervescente que lança chamas e “pedaços” gasosos super quentes <strong>do</strong> tamanho de pequenos planetas.<br />
Depois deste pico, o astro normalmente passa por um perío<strong>do</strong> de calmaria.<br />
Esperava-se que o sol voltasse a esquentar no ano passa<strong>do</strong> depois de uma temporada de calmaria.<br />
Mas em vez disso, a pressão <strong>do</strong> vento solar chegou ao seu nível mais baixo em 50 anos, as emissões<br />
radiológicas são as mais baixas <strong>do</strong>s últimos 55 anos e as atividades mais baixas de manchas solares<br />
<strong>do</strong>s últimos 100 anos. E como sabemos, esta calmaria solar afeta muito negativamente a propagação<br />
das <strong>Ondas</strong> de Rádio.<br />

observamos que na freqüência de 6.010 kHz, existem duas emissoras se interferin<strong>do</strong> bastante e
“guerrean<strong>do</strong>” para tentar serem captadas. São elas, a Rádio Mil, <strong>do</strong> México, e a Rádio La Voz de tu<br />
Conciencia, da Colombia. Estes dexistas narraram que ora uma interfere sobre a outra, principalmente<br />
nos horários noturnos, impossibilitan<strong>do</strong> á cópia das modulações. O Julián Santiago, até informou que<br />
