TIPS v. HILE THEY 1 RE STILL TIPS n1 would like to say that t~e-vRC-i; tlW be~t-club going.- lt's got to be - just think - a bulletin every week! Tha t means you get the DX news while it is still hot. With other cl"G.bs you usually ge t the news afte:r it has coQ.led off ahd the tips are little use to you. But the good old NRC gives you tips while they a.re still tips. I would also like to express my thanks to Steve Mann. He h as not only ione a swel l job arranging special broadcasts, but has i •1clud.ed macy- valuable tips for the for­eign ECB DXer. - H;nk Holbrook - Chevy Chase, Maryland

NNRC ANOTHER CLUB SPECIAL =

Just before going to press we received word from Edi tor· Stephen Mann, Westbury, L.I.j N.Y., that the. final program in the series pre­sented by Central and South American stations and by some in the Carib­bean area, is scheduled for Sunday, Feb~ 11th from 5 to 6 A.M~ (E~T)~ This one. will be transmitted by 4VGM, 1430 kcs., 1000 watts; Port~~u­Pr·ince Haiti~ Send reports to Frank C~ Magloire; Manager; 4VGM~ 36 Rue J1mer'icaine,. Port-~rn-Prince; HaitL .

. Note: It is possible that this program may .be postponed until feb. ·1s~h, same time. Therefore, if not heard on Feb~ 11th; we suggest ~uning for .it .on the 18th.

ATTENTION

Accpmpanyirig the March 5th Bulletin will be Nominations Blanks . on which members are to list their choices for Club offices to be fill~ ed during the Annual Election in April~ When you receive these forms please fill them out without delay and forward them immediately to the Nominations and Election Committee according ·to instructions that will appear on the forms.

DISAPPOINTED ----The poor response to special DX programs arranged by our cour­

tesy programs committee this season, brings the following comment frqrn Steve Mann; who; like the other members of our CPC, has ~abored dili­genti¥. snd. at personal expenae, to schedule many1 outstanding broad-casts for members' benefit~ Steve writes: . .

"I might comm~nt at . . this time to the effe9t that I am extremely disappointed in the support given the specials from abroad; by NNRC members. From reports received here from the sta tion's involved, it is apparent that on the average only about FIVE NNRCers reported each pr ogram and in every case, non-members and members of other clubs out­numbered NNRCers by more than 5 to 1. This is bad, especially in view of the fact that some of the broadcasts, such as those by CX-28 and CB-106 for example, had such strong signals that reports were received . from persons using four and five-tube se t s with indoor antenntHl .Obvious­ly, it appears that the great majority of our members wer.en 1 t inter­ested anough to tune in and report ~1

NEWSETTES

Shortwave Editors Henry (Hank) and Amelia Bennett are bsck home in Collingswood, N.J;~ after an auto jaunt in the 1928 Pontiac which took them to Grand Rapids, Mich. for a visit with Mrs. B~nnett•s folks, The return trip was through Canada and via Niagara Falls. Pretty rug -ged; those Bennetts~ ··

p, recent telephone call from Carl L• Horton~ Athol, Mass~, ex­plains why earl has been inactive from a DX ' viewpoint recently~ An up­surge in the leather .business with which he is connected, · has made it necessary for him to make fr equent trips .to and from Wa shington~ Carl expects to be back into the har ness before ·1ong . ·

Honorable mention for Director .A. J. (Stogie) Koempel, Asbury Park, N ~ J~ Al hasn't missed a Board of Directors meeting all season and in many cases he has had to make the long trip alone· since Direct­or Bill Fallender, Neptune City~ N.J~, now has a job · that 'necessita tes night work~ Now that.John T~ Tweedie, Oakhurst; N.J., is ·a Director, old ' faithful will once again have company on· those night ei:cursions.

A gesture of appreciation also to three Club officials whose t a sks this season, with Club work .and the Bulletin, have been arduous and have required many, many hou·~s of labor willing ly given. We refer to Secretaries Al Sauerbier and Ben Feinstein and to Bulletin Manager John w. Reichert.

_ RQ.b.!.r1 !l!o_B9,.:t9: :: 16-L _Mag]:_a_nd_ You•ll think I am going backward in rcy DXing when you read this and probably you will be right as I have not done as much recently as I did in the fall. The other I dug out a lot of old aluminum records that I had made back in the 1930s and enjoyed hearing bits of Bx proadcasts from some now non-existant stati ons. I picked out the ones I thought were most interesting and tried to t heir station announcement onto one of. present dey coated record bla11ke. I have about lZ of the old sta-tions and 8 from post-war to fill up both sides of a 10-inch record cut a.t 78 R.P. M. It makes a rather interesting record for a DXer to listed to and a few those selected are KYW Chicago, just before move to Philadelphia; CFLC, Pres-cott, Ont., CMPN, Havana, KFPM, Greenville, Texas, and t he announcer spells out F-1-F-T-E":"E-N- watts. CHGS in Sum:nerside and t he last day f or WSAL, Salisbury, Md.. , put off the air b,y F.C.C. 30, 1940. More recent DX announcements include HHGM CKCL KCRG. Of course there's lots of noise as those old aluminum were not no.ted for quality and t here is the ever-·present statio. Since I can make duplicates of the composite record t hat I made for myeelf , I thought some others that have turntables might like a copy. If so I will be glad to mail a copy to any JLember for $a.oo. These records are cut from center-out, so just be sure you can run your pickup into the center to start if.. you an

This probably coincides with the station I heard as it was en-tireq music but at 5:05 there was an English announcement and "veteran" note "hich makes me think it U.S. but don't know who or time zone. I m• be wrongt though. 4VGM was on the air Feb. 18 using all English a.nnounceents dedicating their program to NNRC. They were operating both BCB & SW, both heard OK hera.

=. l5.a.. Ma.nr.!.a,nd_ It 1 s high time for a report from a DXe1·. Gue ss from the looks of things I mey be the only member from Md. in the NRC, & I ha'!e to admit that my reports are scarae. What's happened to our oli friend Nelson Seese? He was the one who introa duced me to the NRC. I haven 1 t heard. a word from him since he was married last spring. I guess he 1s pinned down. 1 1m a fine one to talk 1 1m becoming engaged this spring. Been going with the girl for 5 years now, but haven't gotten her interested in the hobby of DX. In fact she olaima I neglect her to listen to the radio. Nelson, if you are living aeywhere near Chevy Chase how about giving me a call? The phone number is still WI. 3332. All the problems I had about the service are for the time being at least put aside. Instead of joining the Air Corps, 1 went back to GWO and will definitely there June, the end of the semester. During the past couple of weeks I've dona little DXing. 1 sold my National HRO, and 'RME, and my GE has been undergoing a thorough overhaul. Lately most of my listening has been done on aGE portable, and I have had little luck with receiving foreigners. I am glad to report that DX activities will again pick up since I got my GE back yesterdef and it is sure in swell shape. It1 s a funny thing but this set was purchased 2 years ago for the mighty sum of 20 bucks & on the BCB it worked better than the HRO & BME. The GE (E-91) is a large table model radio tubes. Its main drawback is that it does not have a crystal but. I hope a friend be able to put one in it. The is a list of stations reported to since my last report to this section in January. Stations reported during the latter part of January were YVKL TIRA, Monte Carlo France on 1349, Rabat 2, PRE-? PRG-2, TIW YVKU, BBC-881. Sta tions reported in Febru-ary were \HAC HJCZ WCRW CBE CFOR KMOD KILO CKNtV CHFA 4VGM & PRG-3. I very seldom re-port to domestic stations, but WCRW was a rare station & KMOD & KILO were recieved under unusual conditions. Last week,..end I went on a DXing tour, accompanied by 2 bud-diea who do not DX b'\lt who went for the ride. We left Chevy Chase at 10 'PM the l?th & drove lOB miles to a spOt about 3000 feet above sea level in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. I wanted to see if .OX was arf/ better in the mountains. We

tuned my friend's car radio whioh is a Hupnobile of 9 tubes between 2-6 AM. The better stations heard were KMOD (Cal.) KILO (N.D.) CKNW (B,C,) CHFA (Al-

& 4VGM (Haiti). All the stations excppt 4iGM were received very Not Qad for a oar radio. Varies reed since rJ:J;f last reparilt are TIHB TIGPH CX-28 CMKS TIRA KFAR (from report sent last YN'N TIW CBE YVKC (?90 - they stated their long-wave call was yVKC, not YVKB) WCRW, France 1.349, Rabat 2, PBB-6 HJCE WIAC CFOR & KILO. The varies from PRB-5 and HJCE are very strange to the least. On the AM of 1/9 I heard a Brazilian on 1200 & not knowing if 1 was PBE-9 or PBB-6 I sent both duplicate reports. In my reports I stated I didn't know which I was hear-ing & if m§s report checked with the log of that station would they be kind enough to QSL? A couple of weeks ago I reed a verie from PBE-9, & I iropped dead when QSLed yesterdaft Both stations in their Vdries stated I iefipitelf tuned to their transmitter. I 1m going to count both of them since I don't know which I nrd. Maybe they carrying ths same program but I very much doubt it. :Sy the wey PRB-6 wants reception reports, so they stated in their letter. I was equally sUrprised yes-terday when HJCE QSLed. On Christmas I heard a station on 8?0 kc/ s . announcing as be-

in Bogota. My radio log put out by FBIS in 1948 listed HJCE so I mailed than a tetter. I lated read. in 11DX News" that many of the fellows were hearing HJCC at that :;ime, ao I nc1turally thought that I had reported to the wrong station. Who is on 8?0, :tree or HJCE? PBJ3-6 and HJCE sure have haJ. my head spinning. Darn it - I mhsed HOL • . r just recel;:tly pu-rchased a ?-inch TV set in :dna shape for $15, & DX is really auf .. faring. I had intended to hit the hay at 10 PM on Sat. & get up for the HOL special but I got interested in a couple of TV programs & before r knew it it was l AM. I was 1.ead tired so decided I'd take a short nap. I set rey Z alarms for 3:451! 4 AM ar..d

therr in opposite corners of the My stratQgy being that one of the clocks ·Nould wav wake rr.e up and that the other would completely do the trick. Tea plan

The next thing I knew it was 6 AM. I was amazed when I found that not on-Ly had I gotten up shut off both alarms. but I had also closed the windows. Guess I ·can now join the sleep walkers' league. ?3.

When I followed up with more information he replied t hat due to changi ng the frequen-cy of their FM station, which means a new FM antenna on top of their AM tower, he will not be able to go t hrough with it. MW percentage on DX arrangements is very very poor! However, don't fo rget WCRO on the 19th. = N·l· The Brasilian stations showed a surprising comeback Saturday Harch 3rd.

In a.dd.ition, an unidentified Brasilian was heard on 1000 kcfs with a goa':! signal, giving WCFL a fight. But who is the Brasilian on 1030, Steve? He came on at 4:00 and ws.s just barely audible. The stations en 780, 880, 980 and 800 f ailed to show at all. So excellent was PRG-9 that I sent a recording of the signal, with ex-planation, to the Brasilian Ministry of Communications in Rio de Janiero. Here's a little more of rey log - 570 - WGWD (V) RLt\.C (H) (N) WACL (N) N< YB (V) WVMI (N) V!MCA (V) WSYR (H) WWNC (V) WKBN (V) WNAX ( V) KUTA ( )? KV!

They 1re all bunched together, with 3 on the same channel. They are CFAR CKUA CJFX KCPn & CKCV. There are about eight others of pre-war vintage, mostly on graveyard channels, but the ones indica.ted here J would get the greatest satis-faction in logging. That 1 s it for now.

WBOKi s CE says sta tion radiates a signal equal to 2500 in a northeasterly direction, being south-west of the city and beaming into it, which rr.ay explain wey t hey get through CKLW here so evenings. Missed a fav, DXe s by ove:rsleeping, Especially mad about WM.TV't which I needed badly. Don't lu1ow though- WJBK was testing on 1490 when I finally did wake up. Also missed hearing WLEE the same morning. First DX needed where we failed to wa.ke this season. WDSC seemed to be missing again on his latest DX date. WCRB was well heard but not needed. DX continues good but th& SAs seem weaker now. Lately some one has bean l1eard q,uite strongly back of WJBK on 1490 around 6:00 daily, louder than Detroit at tines " Don't give call very often. Seems to use foreign language, but also English and mo st music is .American. Think 0 in call - could it be KTOH that loud? Have not heard in some years. WJKO, 1600, could be heard here at 6!45, but now signa on at 6:00 a om. come3 in well at t P4t hour weekd.eys. Often topping WKNK and WHRV. KWOR heard easily through V.JBK and un-known at 5:30 a.m. on 3/4, other many needed Wyoming stations would do that. = I had good r eception on both Feb. 25 and 26 and added 9 new stations to my lo g. On Feb. 25 I was surprised to fine KORE topping 1450 from 3:30-4:04 with a good but my biggest surprise was flnding HOL up a fine signal for the first 20 minutes of their DX on 1.390. Their sie,.1al f aded sorr,e what after 4:20. WICA sent in good signal on jammed 9?0 kc/s, for their DX from 4:30-5:00, and nunber 4 for the dey was added when I heard. WKMH ( l3J.O) with a good signal from s:o0 .... 5Z30. On Feb/ 26, I to snag 5 more good ones. First was KRIZ (1230) Phoenix, Arizona with their 3:00-3:15 TT-f/c, then 2nd was KXLO aliso on 1230 wi th their DX :from 3:59 -4:30 with a good signal despite half a d.ozan statior.s makiniS f/cs a.t t he same time , Then I was happy to add one of rare Pennsylvanians in WCDL (1230) from 5:00 with tough WNOR QRM. I sure to thank Fred and Charlie for arranging these DXe s from some o.f these rare Pa1 s. They sure are a swell addition to my lo g . 4th for tha day was one announcement from WV.'NF (1230) on a f/c at 4:45. They broke thru just once. Last was swell DX from WLEE ( H80) 5-5=.30. Only other adiition this week was on 3/2 when I heard KSEL announce at 2 : :t.? for their f/c. I did hear a few others this week that are rarely heard here, such as on 2/25- WJAX-ET 2:4? on 930i ET 4-4:1? plus f/cs . from WTMV KRAI KRDO .KMYR & KGHF.

Right•\1\;.' iting to Musings of the Members, so you fellow s better appreciate t his r.eport since I'm using valuable time-H!. First of all I believe Verified-Heard list the it now stands is of little interest and value. I t h ink the ·idea H. Campbell had, which was stat ed in the last bulletin, is . very good. I also have o one of my own. Why not first list stations vel'ified followed by countrifl verified and then lmst stations verified from parts of the world such as(usine my st a ndin gs) North America (704) ·, Wes.t Indies(43), Central Am eric a( 22 ), South America{ 21), Europe( 14 ), Africa( 5), Near East ( 0) East(O) and Pacific Area(5)--this would include islands of the Pacific Hawa1i, New Zea land, Australia and so on--. The sta tions could also be listed in the same manner: however, in my opinion the heard list is unecessary since ver ies are what count s. I also believe that a prepared card should b e but why limit these listing s to only once a year? it Should come out at least at the beginning of each nx season and at t he end of t :1 e DX sea son • . I frankly don't care whose idea is used. But I do believe t he Verified-Heard List needs to be definitely improved. to sum up my DX activities b e tween Nov.-April.
