GHANA BROADCASTING CORP. Heard on 25 Feb 93 on a Frequency of 4915 KHZ in french, signal was only fair at the time. at 0608 UTC Radio KUWAIT heard on 13620 KHZ on 26 Feb 93 with excellent signal at 1955 UTC R. CENTINELA DEL SUR heard until S/OFF at 0330 UTC on a frequency of 4770.8 KHZ on 23 Feb 93 BBC VIA LESOTHO heard on 25 Feb 93 at 0411 UTC on 3255 KHZ with a very good signal HCJB's Local outlet on 3220 KHZ heard in spanish at 0430 UTC on 25 Feb 93 Radio REBELDE, CUBA ... heard on 3366 KHZ at 0410 UTC on 26 Feb 93 in Spanish Radio CIMA in dominican Republic heard on 4959.80 KHZ at 0441 UTC on 26 FEB 93 CAMEROON RTV heard in local language at 0450 UTC on 5010 KHZ on 26 feb 93 ALL INDIA RADIO heard in local language at 0330 on 27 FEB 93 on 5040 KHZ R. ORION, South Africa heard with excellent signal every night on 4810 KHZ with english mixed with Afrikaans..around 0200 UTC RADIO BOTSWANA heard with S/ON at 0256 UTC at 3356 KHZ on 27 FEB 93 Also to be noted that every night this week Radio NIGERIA , KADUNA on 4770 KHZ has been having a Number Station right on top of it...making the reception of the station impossible until around 0455 when the Number station Signs Off.. Effective as of February 28, 1993 the ONLY SSB Feeder transmissions from VOA Bethany is a half hour of German on 10869 USB from 2200-2230. All other SSB Feeder transmissions have been cancelled. That means the feeder on 19261.5 kHz is now silent. * RADIO HAVANA CUBA Listener's group / round table email mail list . Please note: This group is an informal group of listeners to RHC who would like to be able to communicate with other listeners. It is NOT controlled or mediated by RHC or funded by RHC. If you would like to listen to Radio Havana Cuba the main frequency is 6010 AM & 9815 SSB at 7:00 PM EST in a two hour format repeated at 9:00 PM. The round table is meant to be a non political forum and open to anyone who is a RHC listener or interested in Cuba. Being on the list means you will be on a mailing list of contributions in a magazine format. Your name and or address will not appear unless you specifically request that. Currently there are many people who would like to help the Cuban people in one way or another but for the average person it is extremely hard to contact other people or organizations. A complete list of contacts, email addresses ect will be available as they arrive. One big problem is that the average listener in the USA does not have any way of communicating with RHC quickly, or cheaply with out a lot of effort. The RHC listeners group has a number from which all calls are forwarded to RHC in Havana. >From any where in North America it is 613 592 1401 24 hrs a day. All calls are forwarded to RHC in Havana with a maximum delay of a week. All calls are sent via the weekly flight from Canada to Havana. Callers should make their call before Friday 9:00 am and it will be in Havana Sunday afternoon and at RHC Monday morning. If you would like to be part of the RHC Listener's group contact Roger Townsend at aa367@freenet.carleton.ca voice mail 613 780 2555 If you like the idea and would like to see RHC mention that this Talk Back Line is now operating you should say so to The Director Radio Havana Cuba at radiohc@tinored.cu (RHC's email address in Cuba) Some Loggings --------------------------------------------------------------------- 00750 2334 R.

The two stations broadcast in 23 languages spoken in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union, most also carried by the Voice of America.

The reason is that the Voice of Greece can use the VOA MW transmitter at Kavala (792 kHz) only at 2200-2230 local time and they prefer to use that half hour for programmes in Balkan languages. We here at RVI will wait until the end of March, until the 28th to introduce a new schedule, that's when the continental countries of the European Community switch back to Summer Time, Summer Daylight Saving Time. Others will make changes this weekend, or rather from the first of March. Although we have four weeks to go, I'll present our new schedule today, as I don't want anyone to complain about not having been informed in time: so here it is, as I said: from the 28th of March : R.VLAANEDREN INTL, BELGUIM: on weekdays, that's Monday through Saturday, we broadcast in Dutch on 5910 kHz to Europe and on l3675 kHz to Africa; >From O6.OO to O6.30 h in Dutch and from O6.30 to O7.OO h in English on 5910 to Europe and on 9925 kHz to Europe and Australia; * From O7.OO to O7.30 h in French, O7.30 to O8.30 in Dutch, O8.30 to O9.OO h in German and from O9.OO to O9.30 h in English on 5.910, 9.905 and 13.675 kHz, all this forlisteners in Europe; * From O9.30 to 10.OO h in French and from 10.OO to 11.OO h in Dutch on l3.675 kHz for Europe and on 17.540 kHz for Africa; * From ll.OO to 11.30 h in Dutch on 9.905 and 13.675 kHz for Europe and on 17.540 kHz for for Africa * From ll.30 to 12.OO h in Spanish to Europe on 9.905 and 13.675 kHz; * 12.OO to 13.OOh in Dutch, 13.OO to 13.30 h in English and 13.30 to 14.OO h in French on 15.530 to North America and on 17.540 kHz to South East Asia; * Then in Dutch again to Europe from l4.OO to 16.OO h on 9.905 kHz; * From l6.00 to l6.30 in Dutch and from l6.30 to 17.OO in Arabic on 15.540 kHz to the Middle East and East Africa and on 17.540 kHz to Africa; * From 17.OO to 17.30 in Dutch and from l7.30 to 18.OO h in German on 5.910, 9.905 and 11.695 kHz to Europe; * From l8.OO to l8.30 h in English, l8.30 to 19.OO h in French, l9.OO to 20.OO h in Dutch on 5.910 kHz for Europe and 13.685 kHz for Africa, except on wednesdays and saturdays, and on 15.540 kHz, also for Africa. On wednesdays and saturdays there's a programme in Dutch from l8.OO to 20.OO h on 13.685 kHz; * then: from 20.00 to 20.30 in Dutch, 20.30 to 21.OO h in Spanish and 21.OO to 21.30 h in English on 9.905 kHz for Europe; * From 21.30 to 22.OO h in French, 22.OO to 23.OO h in Dutch, 23.OO to 23.30 Spanish and 23.30 to 24.OO h on 9.930 kHz for North America and 13.655 kHz for South America. On Sundays the schedule is basically the same, except: >From O7.OO to O7.30 French, O7.30 to O8.OO h German and O8.OO to 10.00 h Dutch on 5.910 and 13.675 kHz for Europe and 17.540 kHz for Africa. >From l0.OO to 11.30 h Dutch on 13.675 kHz to Europe, and 17.540 and 21.815 kHz to Africa; >From ll.30 to 12.OO h English and from 12.OO to 12.3O h Dutch on 15.530 kHz to North America and on 17.540 kHz to South East Asia; >From 12.30 to 16.OO h Dutch on 9.905 and 13.710 kHz to Europe and on 17.540 kHz to Africa; >From l6.OO to 16.30 h Dutch and l6.30 to 17.OO h Arabic on 9.905 for Europe and 17.540 kHz for Africa; 20.OO to 20.30 h Dutch on 5.910 kHz to Europe, 13.685 and 15.540 kHz to Africa; 20.30 to 21.OO h Spanish and 21.OO to 21.30 h English on 5.910 kHz and 9.905 kHz to Europe. We carry additional broadcasts to the Belgian troops in Croatia on Saturdays from 16.OO to l7.OO h in Dutch and French on 9.905 kHz and on Sundays there's a broadcast for the Belgian paratroopers in Somalia from l6.OO to 17.OO h on 15.540 kHz, if they're still there, of course, which is most likely. And of course, all these transmissions, or most of them anyway, are going out on mediumwave, from O4.OO to 23.OO h on l.512 kHz. Note that the programmes in German, French, English, Spanish and Arabic are in fact not half-hour programmes but have a duration of 25 minutes. As you will have realised the major change, as far as Brussels Calling is concerned, is tha all transmissions come one hour earlier. Here are all our frequencies : 5.910, 9.905, 9.925, 9.930, 11.695, 13.655, 13.675, 13.685, 13.710, 15.530, 15.540, 17.540 and 21.815 kHz. I hope I've got them all there. HCJB: The religious broadcaster HCJB of Quito, Ecuador, with programmes in English from O7.OO h is on 9.600 kHz from the first of March, in replacement of 6.205kHz. The parallel frequency is ll.835 kHz. News is at O7.30 h. WWCR: We also note that WWCR of Nashville Tenessee is back on 7.435 kHZ after unsuccessful attempts on 12.160 and 9.370 kHz. R.ALLA: Eugene Gebruers reports the disappearance of Radio Alla, which he liked for its folk music programmes I reckon. The station is no longer heard on any of its 10 shortwave and 2 mediumwave frequencies. ZAIRE: the announcement in the BBC's German-language DX programme that the monitoring service had observed La Voix du Zaire on its longstanding frequency of 15.245 kHz. Extensive monitoring by Eugene produced no results at all, except that at l6.30 h, as the BBC said, there is indeed a programme in French that can be heard, with great pain, under the signal of the Voice of America, carrying news in special English. So, from l6.30 until the end of that broadcast, and only then, only when the Voice is active, there is indeed a station carried on the same wave, in French. Could that be Za#re ? Hopefully it is, and hopefully it will be audible at other times as well, when the frequency is clear, as we here in Belgium are very keen on first-hand information from Kinshasa, especially in these times of deep political and economic crisis in our former colony. Hopefully, also, Glen Hauser is right when he said La Voix du Zaire would at some time in the future use a new transmitter on 15.245 kHz. Eugene last heard Zaire on that frequency on the llth of September l987, four and a half years ago. From March l988 the transmitter packed it in indefinitely. So, if any of you has heard Zaire on 15.245 kHz, please tell me. WWCR: will continue to use 7435 KHz up until 1000 UTC which would include the Sunday 0800 UTC airing of WoR. As Spring approaces the 9, or 12 MHz band might prove to be more useful. (WoR #682) R.BOSNIA: via WHRI, Dianne Mauser heard them Thursday Feb.11th at 0100 on 7315 KHz originating from the San Francisco Area since they had a 415 area code phone number.

R.MOSCOW: Over to Russia, first for the Dutch-language programme of Radio Moscow International: that's from 18 to 19 h UTC on 11920, 9720 and 9640 kHz.

There might be other frequencies as well, of course.Eugene says Radio Moscow is still playing its silly game of trying to occupy as many frequencies of Radio Ukraine as possible. As soon as Kiev starts broadcasting on a new frequency, the Russians jump on it to spite them. All very childish, if you ask me.
