Greetings friends and welcome to this month's DX tips from Indian DX Report on KBS Listeners' Lounge. I am your host Prithwiraj and hope you all are keeping fine. So lets begin with few DX news from Asia.
Radio Taiwan International has recently announced in their website that it's transmissions towards the Philippines in English between 0100 to 0200 UTC on 11875 kHz and between 1100 to 1200 UTC on 9465 kHz will close from July 1st!! However, their Medium Wave transmission from 1100 to 1200 hour UTC on 1359 KHz will remains unchanged.
According to a news published recently, China Radio International’s Tamil service is all set to launch its FM station in India as part of its 50th anniversary this year. CRI Tamil, which broadcasts on shortwave targeting Tamil Nadu in India, is in talks with some FM stations in Chennai. The Tamil service of CRI was started in August 1963 and besides Tamil, CRI broadcasts in three other Indian languages — Hindi, Bengali and Urdu. If this proposal of CRI realised the this will establish CRI's footing in the FM area of India.
Taiwan based PCJ Radio has recently started a series of Shortwave test transmissions via SLBC relay station in Trincomalee beamed to East and South East Asia with a powerful 125 kW transmitter. On 19th May, Sunday they successfully conducted this test transmission between 1300 to 1400 hour UTC on 11750 kHz and three more test transmissions are scheduled on this same frequency and time on 26th May, 2nd June and 9th June, Sundays. Printed and eQSLs are offered by this station for correct reception reports for these test transmissions.
All India Radio Port Blair station transmitting with a 10 KW transmitter from Beautiful Indian Islands of Andaman and Nicobar is reported missing on 4760 kHz due to a breakdown in transmitter. The station engineers are trying best to restore the faults and hopefully AIR Port Blair will be soon on air again. Here is the current transmission schedule of AIR Port Blair:- 2355 to 0300 hour UTC and 1030 to 1700 or 1730 UTC on 4760 kHz; AIR Port Blair is also available on 7390 kHz between 0315 to 0400 UTC (Saturdays till 0415 UTC and on Sundays till 0500 UTC) and 0700 to 0931 UTC (on Sundays till 1000 UTC).
