Hello again,

Welcome to another issue of our DX MAGAZINE. I have no news to report from inside or outside theclub this month.

Therefore best wishes and good DX until next month from

Liebe Freunde der Kurzwelle,

Seit 8 Jahren senden wir mit unseren im Vergleich zu den (ex)-staatlichen Grosssendeanlagenbescheidenen Mitteln auf Kurzwelle.

Was anfangs mit ein paar Stunden taeglich auf einer Frequenz begann hat sich mittlerweile zu einer"oppulenteren Angelegenheit" gemausert. Ab April 2015 strahlen wir woechentlich 365 Stunden (gut 52Stunden am Tag) verschiedene Programme auf bis zu 4 Frequenzen gleichzeitig aus. Von Musik- bisInfoprogrammen in verschiedenen Sprachen haben wir verschiedene Partner gewinnen koennen, die einfuer Euch hoffentlich genehmes Programm produzieren.

Als eingetragener Verein verrichten wir alle Arbeiten rund um den Sendebetrieb ehrenamtlich. Sender-und Antennenwartung, Programmerstellung, Sendeplanprogrammierung, QSL Karten ausfuellen undverschicken - alles wird liebevoll von einem kleinen, aber feinen Team am Laufen gehalten, damit wiralle unser gemeinsames Hobby, die Kurzwelle noch moeglichst lange am Leben halten.

Gerne moechten wir unser Engagement auf dem jetzigen Niveau halten und ggf. noch weiter ausbauen.Die rechtlichen Grundlagen sind da: Die Kurzwellenfrequenzen duerfen aktuell noch bis mindestens Ende2025 genutzt werden.

Aber: jedes Hobby kostet Geld. Das weiss jeder, der eine Modelleisenbahn, eine Yacht oder einen Fablefuer Schallplatten hat. Bei der Kurzwelle ist es nicht anders. jedes kW Sendeleistung kostet Geld, auchdie Senderoehren wollen alle Jahre mal getauscht werden, das Programmsignal muss zum Senderkommen, hierfuer braucht es Tonleitungen... und... und... und...

Die Einnahmen durch die Vermietung von Sendezeit fliessen zu 100% wieder direkt in dasKurzwellenprojekt und die Programmerstellung.

Dennoch: nicht alles kann vollstaendig durch Relaysendungen refinanziert werden. Vieles steuern unsere

Foerderer aus privater Tasche bei: QSL Karten, Portokosten, Infrastrukturkosten etc. Wir wuerden unsdaher sehr freuen, wenn es in dieser Runde den ein oder anderen gibt, der sich am gemeinsamen Hobbyeventuell beteiligen moechte. Sei es durch gute Ideen, aktive Mitarbeit oder einen kleinen Obulus fuerdie Vereinskasse.

Vielen Dank fuer die Aufmerksamkeit und allzeit guten Empfang!

Two Brazilian issuers return to transmit in tropical waves

After several months inactive, two Brazilian issuers returned to tropical waves. They are the Radio CançãoNova, Cachoeira Paulista (SP) in 4825 kHz, and Radio Iguatemi, in Osasco (SP) in 4975 kHz. Theinformation is of Luis Valerio Valladão, who resides in Três Corações (MG). According to Luis both comewith strong signal there in southern Minas Gerais. Here, in the countryside of São José de Piranhas (PB),I could see the return of the Radio Canção Nova, today, around 02:00 at UTC, and behold, the receptionwas very good.

Remember that this is a recurring problem in many Brazilian stations broadcasting on short and tropicalwaves, sometimes in the air, why are inactive.

CHINA - CCPPCC and CRI.At last months meeting of Committee Of The Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in Beijing.One of the sub-committees headed by Zhang Dejiang, who is also the Chairman of the National People'sCongress Standing Committee. Will be forming a 12 member board to look into the effectiveness ofshortwave as a delivery platform for China Radio International.

The committee who's members include leaders from various government ministries including defense,culture, propaganda, SAFRT and the Central Committee. Part of the investigation will be to look atshortwave cuts made in Australia, Canada, Russia, UK, and the US. Last year the Chinese Governmentspent over 600 million Yuan in shortwave (around 100 million USD. This includes not only CRI broadcasts,but also China National Radio. They will also be looking at staff reductions.

Currently China Radio International has a staff of 8500. They are looking at reducing staff by 40%, closing7 of there overseas bureaus, closing CRI Television, closing some CRI language services. Some of thelanguages that are being looked at axing are Tagalog, Polish, Greek, Italian, German, Esperanto, Croatian,Dutch, Swedish, Norwegian, Icelandic, Finnish, Bulgarian, and Danish. But English would be expandedas would Chinese.

With the cut of CRI Television, which no one has ever seen. Talks already started last year to create anew channel. CCTV has two international channels CCTV 4 (Chinese) and CCTV 9 (English). If the plangoes ahead both these channels would close and a new channel would be created along the lines of RT.A few RT executives have been hired as advisors for the new project.

China has just begun it's 13th 5 year plan 2015 to 2020. It will take them at least 1 year to come up

7

with the findings, and another 2 to 3 years to implement. But China being what it is, there is a possibilitythis could move faster. This is because of Chinese President Xi Jingping's anti-corruption crackdown.<https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/dxld/conversations/messages/81402>(Keith Perron-TWN, dxld March 22)

Nach erfolgversprechenden Testsendungen am 21. und 22. Maerz beginnt DP07 Seefunk (Reiner Dietzel,Estedeich 84, 21129 Hamburg, <http://www.dp07.com> <info@dp07.com> am 1. April mit regulaerenSendungen ueber das Kurzwellenzentrum Kall Eifel <http://www.shortwaveservice.com/>

Ausgestrahlt wird der "grosse" Seewetterbericht mit den Seegebieten vom Eingang Aermelkanal bisSuednorwegen in die Nordsee, ueber die Seegebiete Kattegat, Skagerrak in die Ostsee, bis hinauf zumFinnischen Meerbusen. Die Kurzwellensendungen sollen den Betrieb der UKW- Kuestenfunkstellen ueberdie Nord- und Ostseekueste hinaus nach Skandinavien erweitern.

Die Idee zur Zusammenarbeit mit dem Funkhaus Euskirchen wurde 2014 geboren, als die Kooperation

16

DP07 Seefunk mit der Kuestenfunkstelle Monaco Radio keine zufriedenstellenden Ergebnisse mehr brachte.Die fuer den Norden bevorzugte Sendeanlage von Monaco Radio auf 13146 kHz war im Fruehjahr 2014durch Blitzschlag zerstoert und anschliessend nicht ersetzt worden. Die Ausstrahlungen von DP07 Seefunkauf der Ersatzfrequenz 8728 kHz brachten keine oder nur wenig zufriedenstellende QSL's aus Schweden,Norwegen und Finnland. Deshalb wurde diese Kooperation, sehr zum Bedauern von beiden Seiten,eingestellt.(Prof. Dr. Hansjoerg Biener-D, ntt aktuell April 2015)
