7/7/12:
9:00z timeslot
9063 SK01 (RDFT) - carrier until 5947 kHz transmissions ended.
5947 SK01 (RDFT) - ended at 9:27z, moved traffic to the 9063 carrier.
7/8/12:
5:00z timeslot
5898 M8a - missed callups. "Normal" transmission. No SK01 after. Off at
5:55z
6:00z timeslot
5800 M8a - Callups 73722 84402 07841; first groups 228?2 2??0? 00?70
(respective to callups). No SK01 after. Off at 6:51z.
9063 SK01 (RDFT) - Found at 6:44z. "Normal" transmission. Off at 6:55z.
7:00z timeslot
5853 Partial V2a - began early with 210 "uno"s, began callups, then changed
to 5883 kHz in the middle of the second round of callups.
5883 V2a - a continuation of the above; callups 20582 33011 46341, first
groups 68473 ????? 70253 (respective to callups). End with "final"s at 7:41,
off at 7:42.
Here I noted possible transmitter problems due to abrupt and significant
changes in signal strength. The signal became a very strong +10dB after
7:35z, compared to being around S3 earlier.
M8a and SK01 were not found in this timeslot
8:00z timeslot
5898 V2a - +10dB signal; callups same as 7:00z (20582 33011 46341), first
groups 01572 72384 76430 (respective to callups). 2 minutes before I heard a
pair of "uno"s.
All had 60 Hz hums, not 50 Hz as in daytime 17/18 MHz transmissions earlier
this month. All V2a transmissions used "Atención". All SK01 transmissions
used RDFT, were spaced 5 minutes apart, and did not include the FSK heard on
some transmissions.
