VOK is certainly not in the league of Radio Australia or New Zealand. However, those signals may be beamed to North America. Key difference: North America is not the TARGET AREA of Oz/NZ broadcasts. They target Asia and the South Pacific. The nature of SW is such that they can be heard in NAm, but the target area is far south of LA. The broadcasts by NK that are targeted to North and Central America air in the very early morning in the target area. To my knowledge, they do not broadcast to NAm during our prime time, about 5-11 pm local time. Most stations that broadcast to NAm have a prime time slot, but not the North Koreans. NK broadcasts to NAm in the early morning-6am on the west coast, 9am on the east coast (if the signals reach that far). Most SW listeners in NAm don't sit down and listen in the morning, which is why it's not prime time. I suppose that in Kim Jong Il's hermit kingdom that all workers are properly indoctrinated in the morning before work, which is why they target us at such an odd time. running dogg wrote: wrote: Some ungoldly time, like a bit before 3am PST on 2/10/2006.

I'm surprised it was so weak. I believe that NK has a tx to NAm at 1500 UTC.

The nature of SW is such that they can be heard in NAm, but the target area is far south of LA. It's been about twenty years since Radio Australia stopped registering frequencies and time periods for North America with the ITU. They decided to concentrate their resources on listeners in the Pacific and Asia where Australia has more influence. I remember when their registration of 9580-Khz for the time period 1100-1300 UTC for North America expired. The next day the VOA started using that frequency in the same time period, which made it impossible to hear RA. The VOA wasn't violating any regulations because the frequency was no longer registered by RA for North America. They changed it to the South Pacific. I talked to someone in the frequency department at the VOA that first morning when the problem started. They weren't aware that RA was still using 9580-Khz because it was no longer shown in the ITU schedule for NA. As it turned out, the VOA moved to 9590 the day after I talked to them, apparently as a gesture of good will to RA. According to ITU regulations at the time, the VOA didn't have to do it. |

Nice work in the Kommode, John. If you can get it.
__________________________________________________ ____ Atlanta, GA: Epoch Times Chief Technical Officer Beaten By Communist In His Own Home Around noon on Feb. 8 two armed men forced themselves into the Atlanta home of Epoch Times lead information technology specialist Mr. Yuan P. Li, beating him and stealing two of his laptops. After Mr. Li managed to free himself from the extension cord used to bind him, he was taken to an area hospital for treatment. This crime, occurring in a very safe area in Atlanta and done without concern for the taking of valuables, appears to break new ground in the Chinese Communist regime's campaign against The Epoch Times. http://english.epochtimes.com/news/6-2-9/37956.html __________________________________________________ ____ Chinese Newspaper Editor Beaten to Death in Police Custody Wu Xianghu, Deputy Editor-in-Chief of the Taizhou Evening News, recently suffered serious injuries while in police custody. Mr. Wu had been arrested for publishing an investigative article on arbitrary ticketing practices by the police. Thursday morning, February 2, Mr. Wu failed to respond to medical treatment and died of his injuries. He was 42 years old. http://english.epochtimes.com/news/6-2-10/38031.html http://english.epochtimes.com/news/6-2-7/37864.html __________________________________________________ ____ Human Rights Attorney Gao Zhisheng Asked to Leave China by Secret Police Sound of Hope reporters Qin Yue and Li Min reported that famous human rights attorney Gao Zhisheng ended his two-day-long hunger strike. Right after he stopped fasting, he received a cell phone message from the secret police, trying to persuade him to leave China. When Gao ended his two-day fast for human rights, his relatives and friends from his hometown were all very worried about his safety. They urged him not to continue to confront the CCP. http://english.epochtimes.com/news/6-2-9/37970.html __________________________________________________ ____ "I.P. Yurin" wrote in message ... "I.P.

Smash the imperialist bloodsuckers and their capitalist-roader running dogs! -- Col. I.P. Yurin Commissariat of Internal Security Stakhanovite Order of Lenin (1937) Hero of Socialist Labor (1939) Komrade Yurin! How are you? I don't know you are Atlanta Party Chief. Kongratulation!!! Do you see Komrade John? I am well. It has been a while since I've communicated here in r.r.s. Checked back in from time to time. More consistently these last weeks. The place seems to have become a nuthouse. Well... nothing the NKVD can't clear up with a few mass purges... Your remarks about Atlanta and comrade John await decryption from the comrades in the appropriate bureau. Lacking the decryption, I have no idea what you're talking about. Lots of work here. Many investigations. Infinite confessions to extract from the wreckers and Trotskyite degenerates. You understand, I'm sure.

I suspect you're partially right. On maps that show world electricity use, NK is completely dark. I suspect that power is turned on for only a few hours in the evening. The bc times mentioned are all in the evening-up to about 1am-NK time. When the power is off to the proles, the power is likely off to the government too. So NK can only broadcast on shortwave when the power is on, which is in the evening local time. A side note: when electricity was first introduced to America, it only was generated in the evening, as it was concieved as a way to light houses and nothing more. It took some convincing to turn the juice on 24/7. I suspect that electricity is in very short supply in NK, so they're doing the natural thing-just using it for lighting when people need it most. |

Certainly not! In the Workers' Paradise of Korea, the Party is in firm control. Electricity (from the millions of victorious, small power plants) is given to what the Army-based philosophy of the Dear Leader determines is most important. The masses gratefully accept whatever is left over. And no one ever complains. -- Col. I.P. Yurin Commissariat of Internal Security Stakhanovite Order of Lenin (1937) Hero of Socialist Labor (1939) |
