ALASKA 3250 kHz Nov 19 at 0454 UT, HAARP, into VE6JY Alberta-CAN
Perseus remote SDR. Upward sweeps three times per minute, on H2Ofall
splaying out matching LSB and USB. Tnx tip from Walt Salmaniw on WOR iog:
"HAARP (That's more like it) - "Finally found them tonight at 0446 UT with
rising tones and distinctive look on the waterfall on 3250 kHz. Frequency
of the tones is quite a lot lower than what I've experienced in the past,
although it sounds like there are some echos several seconds later ? Moon
bounce? Walt - Enjoying the world of radio from my remote QTH on Haida
Gwaii off the NoWest coast of BC, Canada" - some more WOR iog posts:
"HAARP 18 Nov 0210 UT - From: Pop Shop Date: Tue, 18 Nov 2025
12:58:09 UT - HAARP was active last night on 6900 kHz, no doubt giving
the peskies some grief, between 0210 UT and 0259:45 UT with sweeping
tone between 6901 to 6989 kHz. Short video clip:

"There definitely is some reflections noted. Look at the complex image
and notice the weaker lines: They seem to occur starting about 6 seconds
after the strong signal rising tone which occurs every 15 seconds. Inte-
resting, for sure! HAARP 3250 <04h48_19Nov2025_Masset.jpg>
73, Walt (Masset-BC-CAN)"
"Hearing fairly strong HAARP signals on 3250 kHz via the Anchorage_ALS
Kiwi SDR just after 0500 UT November 19. Waterfall display is quite com-
plex, with multiple tones rising and falling.
Stephen Luce, Houston-TX-USA"
"Now I'm hearing a buzzy AM signal on 3.250, and then shifted down to
2.8 MHz, but now back on 3250 (at 0509). No more sweeps. Walt" "Now
sounding like a motorcycle revving up on 3.200! VERY weird stuff! 73,
Walt (05:13)" "Now on 3200 with a very weird revving motorcycle
sound! 05:15 (Walt)" "The same revving motorcycle sound continued
and then off exactly at 05:30:00 on 3200. Clearly on a timer, I'd say!
Very strong into Masset throughout. Tomorrow is scheduled from 01:30
to 08:00. 73, Walt"

CHINA 6200 kHz Voice of Jinling via Nanjing yay! - Nov 10, Was worri-
ed we lost this one, but back on the bands this morning at 1245 UT check
and found with usual excellent signal playing segued mx selections (mellow
guitar mx, Chinese romantic ballads). If past seasons' behavior holds,
this should come on the air daily at nominal *1230- UT but actually 1225-
1235 UT with their infamous 'double-sign-on'.
Not yet sure if they are using the same usual recorded content as before
for this first half hour, e.g. with Chinese superstar Joker Xue or Singa-
porean Tanya Chua (Red High Heels), etc. But the genre sure sounds the
same.
6200 kHz Voice of Jinling via Nanning, Nov 12, noted signing on later
today than in the past, not sure if the new normal or just an aberration.
At first absent and only weak PBS Xizang noted here at 1230 UT on fqy
w/strident YL in CC running past 1237 UT when I left it as no sign of Jin-
ling. But at 1248 UT recheck found Jinling in progress with usual strong
signal. Perhaps s/on this season is to be closer to a nominal *1245- UT?
Can also confirm they are using same recorded pgm block for this 'warmup'
xmsn segment. Zorba-style mandolin at 1258 UT with OM Chinese anmts and
then Tanya Chua 'Red High Heels' 1259 UT leading to usual 1300 UT trium-
phant fanfare and OM ID segment. Into advts on TOH.
6200 kHz Voice of Jinling via Nanjing, Nov 16, good signal at 1255 UT
with usual recorded first half-hr of pgming, playing saccharine pop har-
monies that sound like CC version of Disney movie songs.

ISRAEL Closure of 'Galei Zahal' radio station.
A few weeks ago, we reported on 'Galei Zahal', the Israeli military radio
station. We described it as a media anomaly, an almost unique case:
a military radio station that is open to the exchange of opinions, includ-
ing critical voices against various governments, which often threatened to
shut it down.
Now this threat seems to be becoming a reality.
The defense minister of Netanyahu's government has officially announced a
proposal to end 'Galei Zahal's broadcasts.
Israeli Defense Minister Katz announced last Wednesday that he will soon
submit a proposal to the government to close the Israeli Armed Forces
radio station 'Galei Zahal',with the shutdown scheduled for March 1, 2026.
Based on the recommendations of a commission that investigated the activi-
ties of 'Galei Zahal',the team will work to preserve Gal Galatz, a station
that mainly broadcasts music and traffic reports.
Operating a civilian radio station under military control is an anomaly
that does not exist in any other democratic country.
Katz added that since the 1950s, various defense ministers and IDF chiefs
of staff have considered closing the station, removing it from the mili-
tary framework, privatizing it, or closing its news department. However,
none of these processes has been completed.

den (beiliegend als pdf-format-Datei). Ich meine nicht, dass alle QSL aus

Einige wie 6210 kHz oder 9250 kHz stammen noch vom Ende des zweiten Welt-
krieges, ueberhaupt die 4 und 5 kW Sender der deutschen Luftwaffe? {? am

Wann die ersten Antennen in Saftica SW Sender errichtet wurden, konnte ich
bis heute nicht erfahren, weder von RRI die mich ans Technische Museum
verwiesen hatten, von wo ich (das sind nun schon einige Jahre her) nie
eine Antwort bekommen hatte. {Dafuer gibt es Hinweise von der US Embassy
aus dem Jahr 1958; ed.}
Jedenfalls 1953-1954 wurde dort von RadioCom Saftica ein Sendegebaeude er-
richtet. Ich habe eine Aufstellung von den rumaenischen Kurzwellensendern

ROMANIA RadioCom Saftica Radio Masts and Political Intrigue ...
Nicolae Ionel Ciuca, President of the Senate and presidential candidate
of Romania, lives in the immediate vicinity of the famous radio antenna
masts built by the RadioCom Saftica center in 1953-1954. These meter-
high metal structures are visible from the DN1 highway in the Balotesti-
Saftica area.

<http://binged.it/1LJIrgZ>
One of the radio masts, the tallest, is located just some 65 meters from
Ciuca's villa.
According to sources at the G_andul newspaper, the former prime minister
is greatly bothered by the presence of this towering mast near his home.
For several reasons. Therefore, pressure was exerted on the state-owned
company that manages the mast site to decommission and dismantle the five
strategically important radio dipole curtain antenna structures.
The radio antennas in Saftica (Ilfov), where the shortwave radio trans-
mitter of the same name is located, belong to RadioCom - the National
Radio Communications Corporation - and are under the jurisdiction of the
Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digitization (formerly the Ministry
of Communications). The transmission center and the curtain antennas have
been used for both strategic purposes and broadcasting over the decades
since 1955.
For about in 2002 to 2017 years, several elegant villas have been built in
Saftica in the immediate vicinity of this broadcasting center and its
antennas on various streets. Many residents find the metal structures,
erected in 1953-1954 and designed by Soviet suppliers, unsightly, parti-
cularly due to their appearance.
Official sources say: "The antennas in Saftica are not dangerous."
RadioCom has been repeatedly pressured by local residents to dismantle the
radio curtain antenna.
New property owners in the area have demanded that RadioCom demolish or
dismantle the support structure for the satellite dishes in Saftica. They
argued that the structures posed a danger to the environment. "On behalf
of the company, on-site inspections were carried out by the technical
department. These inspections determined that the metal structures did
not exhibit a dangerous level of corrosion, so the satellite antennas must
be dismantled," administrative sources told G_andul.
On the other hand, the same sources stated that the radio antennas in
RadioCom Saftica soil were of strategic importance and that the state
could be forced to reactivate them for shortwave broadcasting at any time.
This is particularly relevant in the context of the war between Russia and
Ukraine now on Romania's eastern border. {...}
These antennas have been out of service for *50 years, are rusted, and
pose a real danger.
(G_andul report, Nov 2024)
Comment by ed.
*The CIA documents from 1956/58 year already indicate the start of Saftica
Radio Bucharest Romania bc shortwave transmission at the end of 1953 for a
100 kW transmitter at 9570 kHz and a 50 kW transmitter at 5979 kHz.
From January 5, 1955, to July 14, 1977, it was used for secret broadcasts
by the Comintern and for the secret radio stations of Spain and Portugal.
It also served as a 50 kW regular shortwave station for Radio Bucharest
until its restoration in 2008, 17 years ago.
[...] in order to clear the RadioCom Saftica area for residential develop-
ment on the property:
"And also scrapped at [Tiganesti #2] Saftica site the old various longer
leg rhombic antennas in direction of Spain/Latin AM and Portugal from days
of Clandestine transmissions of "Radio Espana Independiente" by Comintern
and as well as Portuguese Communist Party "Radio Portugal Libre" too.
At Saftica broadcast center directional horizontal thombic antennas ope-
rate also back as via jamming equipment to other countries like all-USSR
in 1953 to 29 July 1963. Rhombics are visible on G.E. images til 2006-
2008 images.

On parts of the former RadioCom site Saftica, which property was sold in
2008 approx., west of the shortwave curtain antennas, further horizontal
log-periodic rhombic antennas were also visible via satellite images among
the fruit trees in the area, which were used for secret, disguised
Communist Party radio broadcasts towards the Iberian Peninsula (Spain,
Portugal Iberia audience) as well as towards Colombia and Venezuela in
South America. ed.
Between 2002 and 2017 years, the number of private houses on the RadioCom
Saftica property boundary increased from 8 to 21.

I did some research myself: WRN Vsemirnaya Radioset seems to be WRN's own
program in Russian, which is probably produced in Moscow. I'll have to
check the Russian pages of WRN later to see what it's all about.
[...]
In "Europe on Shortwave" by Tony Rogers-UK, I have just found detailed
information about the Russian WRN program.
It will probably be compiled by WRN and obviously contains contributions
from the BBC London, KBS World Radio Seoul, Radio Prague, REE Madrid, and
Radio Slovakia International in addition to its own productions. See also
the program overview at
<https://wrn.world/programs/>
World Radio Network in Russian.
World Radio Network in Russian offers a 24 hour service, of which three
hours is also broadcast on shortwave. The WRN Russian website at
<https://wrn.world/>
says "The World Radio Network is a multicultural channel offering its
listeners programming from many countries. We provide our listeners with
the opportunity to directly immerse themselves in the national cultures of
many countries and receive first-hand information about current events,
all in Russian and on a single channel, without intermediaries.

USA Possible end to US shutdown in sight.
The USgovernment shutdown is already the longest in the country's history.
Among other things, the budget freeze is affecting amateur radio admini-
stration in the US - from Deutschland-Rundspruch # 40 reported this with
reference to the US Amateur Radio League (ARRL). Now there are increasing
signs that an end could be in sight. The US Senate has cleared the way for
an end to the shutdown. In addition toother areas, this would also be good
news for radio amateurs.
The US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) would be able to resume its
work, for example to continue processing applications from individuals and
clubs for examination sessions. The government shutdown began on Wed, Oct
1, at 12:01 p.m. Eastern Time, when Congress failed to pass a budget bill
or other plan to fund the government for the new fiscal year beginning
October 1.

Quote from the program: "Testing a new shortwave frequency. Rebroadcasting
via a transmitter in A'Dhabbaya, United Arab Emirates. Due to interference
on 5990 kHz, the World Radio Network, broadcasting in Russian from 17:00
to 20:00 UT, will broadcast on a new frequency of 9820 kHz starting Tues-
day, November 18, for a week. A decision on the future broadcast frequency
will be made based on the results of program monitoring."
