CUBA    About Radio Rebelde on 60mband.

I, as so many others are puzzled/intrigued about the low modulation index
on the Radio Rebelde transmission on the 60m band (5025 kHz), it's a crazy
thing the technicians don't have a modulation index monitor, a way to just
calculate that or a remote quality control station, or any other mean to
find that issue.

This night I was listening to WRMI Legends (5050 kHz from Okeechobee-FL-
state-USA) and set the FFT scanning to 10 minutes to see the birdies of my
neighbors AC inverters over time (I have a lot of them ??) and found some-
thing interesting; a theory that makes sense to me and maybe is the sim-
plest explanation (Occam razor's: the simplest solution maybe is the cor-
rect one).

Maybe the modulation index on the TXsite for Radio Rebelde is showing near
100% modulation index and for the technicians working there "all is ok",
because the TX is broadcasting a 20 kHz wide signal vs the normal 10 kHz
signal!

All resumes to math: Power is the area below the curve, the wider the sig-
nal the more power gets distributed over more "area" and then you have a
lower useful audio power in the usual 10 kHz window; because there is
wasted power distributed on the "unused" 5-10 Khz part away from the
carrier.

See the below pictures of my SDR screen on a 10 minute span, in normal
"real time" the 20 kHz width of the signal is really not noticeable, but
when you over sample it and integrate over time is clearly visible.

Again this is just a theory, maybe they have no modulation index monitor
and are doing the math from the carrier level power vs the audio power
level into the modulator, and the 20 kHz wide signal spoils the metric.

I hope you understand the idea and maybe makes sense to, you are free to
consult, debate, elaborate or simplify it to tell the audience if you
seems apropiarte and valid.

This is just an observation and a educated guess from an old ham that
likes to listen to broadcasting stations on short waves.

re: "fyrryradio" on 6185 kHz.

"Fyrry" is just a local dialect word from the Ostrobothnia region (Poh-
janmaa) in Finland. Meaning:
Fyrry hyrraeae (to blow / hiss / rumble, like blowing through a whistle
or making a buzzing sound). It is the traditional Ostrobothnian name for
a children's toy made from a wooden clapper (a small rotating wheel or
"ratchet" that spins when you blow into a pipe/whistle).

The word "fyrry" was originally just a playful or onomatopoeic way to des-
cribe that toy's sound or rattle.

FRANCE   'France 24': Radio France staff strike over appointment of far-
right weekly editor.

<https://www.france24.com/en/france/20260913-radio-france-staff-strike-
over-appointment-of-far-right-weekly-editor>

Staff at France's public radio broadcaster began a two-day strike on Sun-
day over the appointment of a commentator whom unions accuse of promoting
far-right ideas ahead of next spring's presidential election.

Charles Sapin, deputy editor-in-chief at far-right weekly Valeurs Actuel-
les, has since late August been presenting a weekly political commentary
segment on France Inter, the country's most-listened-to radio station.

Management has defended the appointment in the name of pluralism ahead of
the April-May election to choose a successor to President Emmanuel Macron.
Polls suggest far-right leader Marine Le Pen has her strongest chance yet
of winning the Elysee Palace.

Staff have expressed their opposition to the appointment, arguing that Va-
leurs Actuelles' editorial values are at odds with Radio France's public
service mandate. Due to the strike,Sapin's weekly column, scheduled to air
early on Sunday, was not broadcast. Other segments of France Inter's morn-
ing programme were also taken off the air and replaced with music.

Morning programmes on 'franceinfo' and 'France Culture',the public group's
other radio stations, were broadcast as normal. The magazine, which des-
cribes itself as conservative, has faced numerous legal controversies,
including convictions for racial public insults.

In an opinion piece published in daily 'Le Parisien' on Saturday, around
300 public figures including filmmakers, writers and lawyers described
'France Inter's recruitment of Sapin as "outrageous" and called for him to
be stripped of his political commentary slot.

"Pluralism must operate within the framework of republican values and
should not be confused with complacency toward ideas that pose a threat
to democracy and respect for fundamental rights," they said. Signatories
included left-leaning figures, among them actress Julie Gayet, wife of
former president Francois Hollande, and Nobel Prize-winning author Annie
Ernaux. Speaking on air on Thursday, 'France Inter' director Celine
Pigalle defended Sapin's appointment, describing pluralism as"fundamental"
for a public radio station. "I believe I can trust him not to put France
Inter's airwaves at risk," she said. In early September, hard-left fire-
brand Jean-Luc Melenchon described Sapin's appointment as a "takeover by
fascists".

The disappearance of Moussa Kaka, the director of Niger's Radio Television
Saraounia and the Niamey correspondent of French broadcaster Radio France
Internationale (RFI), illustrates an increasingly hostile environment for
media freedoms in the West African country, RFI said on 14 September.

It said Kaka's relatives had not heard from the veteran journalist since
he left work on 31 August, two days after a failed mutiny by a section of
the army nearly toppled the ruling junta.

The French broadcaster said the detention of journalists such as Kaka, re-
strictions on access to information and other measures that have encourag-
ed media self-censorship have led to Niger's latest press freedom ranking
in the Reporters Without Borders (RSF) index to plummet by 37 points,
dropping it to the 120th place.

It added that new legal measures adopted by the government on 10 Sept.,
which notably imposed restrictions on accreditation for correspondents of
foreign media outlets, further reinforce the erosion of media freedoms in
the country.

Niger appears to be following the example of its Alliance of Sahel States
(AES) neighbours, Mali and Burkina Faso, by banning foreign outlets and
imposing ever more restrictive conditions on local media.

GREECE  Broadcasting from Greece in Russian and nine other languages began
with the commissioning of a 7.5 kW shortwave transmitter in December 1947
or early 1948; the first edition of the WRTH handbook, prepared for print-
ing in November 1947, indicates that the shortwave transmitter was still
under construction or installation at that time. A daily 15-minute broad-
cast in Russian was aired.

A 1953 reference guide lists the following station identification for the
Russian-language broadcast:

"This is Athens calling. Listen to the 'Voice of Greece'."

Russian-language broadcasting ceased in early 1961 and resumed eleven
years later, on November 28, 1972, following the commissioning of two new
100 kW shortwave transmitters. This coincided with the rule of the mili-
tary junta in Greece-a government the USSR labeled a fascist regime-and
Russian broadcasts from Greece were heavily jammed until the end of 1975.

The 10-15 minute Russian segment, which included news and - occasionally -
a review of the Greek press, aired as part of a broader Greek-language
program aimed at the Greek diaspora in the European part of the USSR.

Starting in 1980, a similar Russian-language segment was introduced within
a 50-minute broadcast for the Greek diaspora in Soviet Central Asia (spe-
cifically targeting Tashkent).

Occasionally, instead of the standard Russian programming, the station
aired bulletins seeking to locate Greek relatives within the USSR.

Certain details stand out in memory. Judging by the voice, the Russian
broadcasts between 1972 and 1976 were hosted by an elderly announcer -
possibly someone who had worked for the Russian service prior to 1961. In
May 1984, an event titled "Days of Athens in Moscow," organized by the
Greek side, took place at one of the pavilions of the VDNKh exhibition
center.

Groups of visitors were first shown a documentary about Athens and the
Greek capital's landmarks.It turned out that the film's narration was pro-
vided by the very same "Voice of Greece" Russian-service announcer whose
voice listeners heard on the air every day.

As of 2001, the "Voice of Greece" ceased producing Russian-language pro-
grams (as well as those in other languages); they were replaced by ...
rebroadcasting programs from the domestic Greek multilingual radio station
"Radio Filia" (1999 - June 11, 2013). The Russian-language broadcasts
lasted 30 minutes and featured Greek music, while the Saturday programs
were dedicated entirely to such music.

The famous Yiorgos Dalaras was frequently among the artists played. One of
his 1975 songs is very well known in Russia; its original title is "Ola
Kala Ki Ola Orea" ("Everything is Good and Everything is Beautiful").
A Russian version with different lyrics - "Mne Mama Tikho Govorila" ("Mom
Quietly Told Me") - was performed by Philipp Kirkorov, while the original
is still performed today by Oleg Pogudin:

1) Kirkorov and Dalaras
<https://my.mail.ru/music/search/Ìia+iaia+oeoi+aiaiðeea+???+????/>

2) Pogudin  <https://ru.hitmoz.org/song/72925553>

Russian-language and all other multilingual broadcasting on "Voice of
Greece" ceased in mid-November 2021. In its final years, the service was
available primarily online.

Another multilingual municipal radio station in Athens, AIR - 104.4 FM
(launched in 2004), was available via the "Athina984" station's website
until the end of 2016 (or 2015, according to Wikipedia). Russian-language
programs on the station were hosted by Russian announcers; in 2016,
15-minute news bulletins aired Monday through Friday, and a program titled
"Half an Hour on Culture and Tourism" aired on Tuesdays. About "Voice of
Greece":

Currently, the "Voice of Greece" radio channel (broadcast via the Internet
and satellite) airs programs in English alongside Greek; additionally,
five-minute news bulletins are broadcast Monday through Friday in Arabic,
French, Spanish, and English. A daily one-hour program titled *Greek Music
Express*, featuring Greek songs and artists, is also broadcast in English.

MONGOLIA   Radio in a Catastrophic State. Despite repeated promises every
year that the facilities will be renewed, funding has yet to materialize.

The international service of Radio Mongolia has suffered a complete shut-
down of its shortwave transmitter following a major breakdown. The situa-
tion is no better on the domestic network.

A live television debate program has just examined the state of radio
broadcasting. For an hour,those responsible for the transmitters presented
the condition of the facilities, their inability to obtain spare parts,
and above all, power tubes. Some transmitters are now broadcasting more
noise than sound.

All the listeners present in the studio expressed their indignation and
called for the preservation of the longwave service, which no other system
can replace given the vast size of the country.

The program was organized just as negotiations were beginning regarding
future assistance from Japan's KDDI Fund for Information and Communica-
tions.

SHORTWAVE BROADCASTS.  The international service began in 1964 and was
transmitted using former Soviet transmitters from the Khonkhor transmitt-
ing station, located about 25 km east of Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mon-
golia.

In 2003, the transmitting center was re-equipped by NEC Made in Japan with
funding from the Japanese government. A 500 kW transmitter, consisting of
two 250 kW units, was intended for the Voice of Mongolia, while a 50 kW
transmitter was allocated to the second program of Mongolian Radio on
7260 kHz.

Due to the aging of the equipment, only one of the two 250 kW units was
kept in service, while the other was used as a source of spare parts. The
shortwave transmitters have now reached the end of their service lives.

Nevertheless, let us hope to hear the Voice of Mongolia on 12015 and 12085
kHz, depending on the time of day.

LONGWAVE BROADCASTS. The situation is no better here. Assistance has been
requested from several countries, but without results.

The transmitter at Ulgii (Oelgii) 209 kHz (48 57 25 N  89 58 13 E), dates
from 1965 and now operates at only 30 kW.

Those at Altai 227 kHz (46 19 11 N  96 15 07 E), and Dalanzadgad 209 kHz
(43 r31 55 N  104 24 42 E), date from 1978 and operate at only 75 kW.

The Khonkhor transmitter serving Ulaanbaatar, 164 kHz (47 48 01 N
107 11 04 E), dates from 1984. It is the only one that, when everything is
working properly, operates at 500 kW.

Only the Choibalsan transmitter on 209 kHz (48 00 21 N  114 26 08 E) is
relatively recent. It is a TRAM 150 installed in 2012, currently operating
at the reduced power of 75 kW.

FM NETWORK. In recent years,Mongolia has installed FM transmitters as part
of the Emergency Warning Broadcast System, funded by Japan's KDDI Fund.
Unfortunately, FM coverage can never replace the coverage provided by
longwave across such a vast country.

Re:  Mongolia.  Although this paints a bleak picture, Mongolia's five
active longwave transmitters now account for half of all the world's
LW broadcast senders, with some of the remaining five also now operat-
ing irregularly or with reduced power.
(Chris Greenway-UK, wor Sept 15)

Whatever happened to the new "digital" shortwave transmitters that were
mentioned in the domestic Mongolia listing in the 2025 and 2026 WRTH edi-
tions ?  Proposed but no funding ?

Checking the Oita, Japan Kiwi SDR just now at 14.30 UT on September 15:
I am only hearing a weak 'Voice of Korea' on exactly 12015.35 kHz; no sign
of scheduled 'Voice of Mongolia'in English on the frequency which tends to
be slightly below the nominal 12015, causing a huge het.

I agree that Mongolia is one of the rare cases where longwave still makes
sense, due to the large size of the country and its huge rural areas. Were
the proposed new domestic SW transmitters intended to replace LW ?
(Stephen Luce, Houston-TX-USA, wor Sept 15)

re Mongolia.
Hello everyone, Thanks for such a detailed message. To be honestly, the
conditions of the VOMNG shortwave transmitters were very poor (even worse
than their colleagues in VOK which have been put in use since the 1960s
and BBEF valves since 1980s), but their longwave transmitters are (were)
better for I could even heard them on both 164 kHz and 209 kHz in the city
center of Beijing at night last winter.

SOMALIA   7750 kHz USB_mode, Radio Warsan, from 18.17 UT till suddenly off
at 18.32* UT on Sept 15, heard via Kiwi SDR remote at Voi, Kenya; non-stop
indigenous music; 18.30 UT, with brief "Radio Warsan" ID. Broadcasts in AM
/USB.

I have monitored the frequency many times since 2025 year, via various re-
motes, but believe I was often making a significant mistake. I think my
problem with reception in the past was I was inadvertently listening in
LSB_mode, with no results. In fact today, that is what happened. But today
I did hear an extremely weak signal in LSBmode, so weak it was just a UNID
station. Later I happened to switch to SAMreception and had good reception
and found USB:mode switch to be equally good. I had forgotten that in my
2025 log, I indicated USB:mode reception. An embarrassing error !

USA   Re:  9330 kHz is back, WBCQ WLCR ?

Today I sent an enquiry to Lee Houser of WLC radio together with a couple
of reports via their online form. Reception was poor here at 06:00z and
after 09:00z, with only about S-5 on my meter with moderate fading.

Here is his reply:
"The WLC Radio broadcast is still not up and running 100%. Allan Weiner is
currently broadcasting with a backup transmitter, reduced power, and an
Ampegon antenna pointed at 245 degrees. It's wonderful to hear that you
were still able to pick up the signal, even if it was less than optimal.
Thank you for letting me know about the e-QSL service bug. We'll resolve
this as quickly as we are able."

The 50 kW txs at WBCQ are probably permanently routed to existing anten-
nas (rhombic ? ) so maybe they have hooked up another small tx to the
Ampegon instead. Obviously the 500 kW unit needs some work to be done on
it before it is operational.

USA   Re:  9330 kHz is back, WBCQ WLCR ?
Sorry for being late to the party but I wanted to report an update on the
good reception (and recording) of 9330 kHz using the Uni Enschede-Twente
Kiwi SDR receiver on 13 September from about 23:13UT for about an hour and
five minutes when I ended my recording.

A WLC program was in progress with a full and long ID starting at about
23:48z explicitly mentioning SW transmission and plugging its website.
Another ID by WLC specifically mentioned WBCQ just before 24:00z. At 24:00
another full WBCQ ID: "from the land of freedom, this is WBCQ ... " Then
the gardening program "White Mountain Garden Talk" started. Never heard
that program before. The show was about building a home from scratch!

71. UKW-Tagung: "Technik veraendert sich, die Neugierde bleibt".

In Weinheim kamen alljaehrlich am zweiten Septemberwochenende viele Funk-
amateure zur UKW-Tagung zusammen, um sich ueber Neuigkeiten und Trends zu
informieren. Neben dem geselligen Part am Clubhaus DL0WH mit Camping war
vor allem das Vortragsprogramm mit der Haendlerausstellung und dem Floh-
markt in der Dietrich-Bonhoeffer-Schule Weinheim Anziehungspunkt. In drei
Vortragssaelen erfuhren die Tagungsbesucher viel Neues.

"Wenn man von der 71. Tagung hoert, das ist nicht nur eine Veranstaltung,
sondern eine Institution", stellte der Weinheimer Oberbuergermeister
Michael Moeslang in seiner Begruessungsrede zur Tagung fest.

"Die Geschichte der Tagung reicht bis in die 50er Jahre zurueck. Heute
kommen noch immer Funkamateure nach Weinheim", so Moeslang. Dies sei be-
merkenswert, da "in den 50er Jahren die Technikwelt noch ganz anders
aussah."

Sein Fazit: "Technik veraendert sich - die Neugierde bleibt". Beispiels-
weise ging Pieter Tjerk de Boer, PA3FWM, der Frage nach, ob man einen per
3D-Druck gefertigten Traeger fuer gekoppelte Spulen entwerfen koenne.

Hier fand neue Technik ebenso Eingang wie bei Andreas Spiess, HB9BLA, der
sich mit Kuenstlicher Intelligenz und ihrem Nutzen besonders fuer die
Entwicklung von Software befasste. Sein Fazit: Die Geschwindigkeit zum
Ergebnis motiviere enorm.

So ermoegliche die Anwendung von KI unerreichbare Projekte, der Mensch
habe aber Wuensche und bleibe der Auftraggeber und Pruefer. Eyecatcher
war indes der grosse EME-Portabelspiegel von Emil Bergmann, DL8JJ. Ueber
seine EME-Erfahrungen berichtete er in einem eigenen Vortrag. Neben diesen
gab es noch viele weitere Vortraege ueber den gesamten Tag.

Eine Europapremiere konnten die Besucher am Icom-Stand erleben. Der Her-
steller zeigte dem europaeischen Publikum erstmals seinen neuen IC-7110
Transceiver, der kuerzlich erst auf der 'Tokyo Hamfair' vorgestellt wurde.
Kenwood stellte mit seinem TM-D750 ebenfalls neueste Technik vor und
zeigte passend ein neues Bluetooth-Headset mit PTT-Funktion.

Zum Ende des Samstags konnte man die Exponate des Selbstbauwettbewerbs be-
staunen. Es lagen acht Exponate von sieben Einreichern vor, welche die
Jury zu bewerten hatte, darunter eine latenzarme Inhouse-Remote-Bedienung
fuer den IC-7300, eine LDMOS-Endstufe und eine selbstgebaute Squeeze-
orsetaste.

Der Termin der 72. UKW-Tagung steht indes auch schon fest, es ist der
10. bis 12. September 2027.
