A21 - 160+ NEW FREQUENCIES MONITORED

A21 TRANSMISSION SEASON

160+ NEW FREQUENCIES MONITORED

The new A21 transmission season began last weekend. I have been very busy scanning the international shortwave bands, checking out what has changed since the start of this new season. As expected, there has been much movement across the spectrum by most major players. Below is a record of some early observations made during the past week.

Where possible, for each item, I have tried to identify the former frequency used in the B20 season. But this is sometimes quite hard because schedules can be complex or drastically changed by the broadcaster, making it difficult to arrive at direct comparisons. There are well over 160 frequency changes observed below. So if you are missing your favourite station, then it could be listed below!

Some additional points to note:

1. The list is in frequency order. The countries listed are where the transmitter sites are located. Many broadcasters make use of transmitters in other countries in order to achieve better reception to the target zones. e.g. In this list below, the world-famous BBC currently uses relays in Oman, Singapore, Bulgaria, Tajikistan, the United Arab Emirates, the Vatican, and Madagascar as well as its transmitters in Woofferton, England!
2. Australia is not part of the target zones for just about all of these broadcasts. The era of services beamed specifically to Australia stopped years ago! So, comments on signal strength, as noted at Mount Evelyn, have not been included in this list. In the designated target zones, listeners should find good to excellent reception from many of their favourite broadcasters.
3. All observations were made here at Mount Evelyn. Occasionally, remote SDRs are called upon to confirm reception and monitor reception conditions in or near the target zone. These remote tools are particularly useful for checking the impact of interference, if any, of co-channel or adjacent channel broadcasters.
4. Some DX lists relate their "ex" frequencies to what was used for the same transmission season last year (i.e. A20).  Personally, I don't find this system useful and can be confusing. Yes, I know that a few stations will often try to use the same frequencies for the previous corresponding 12 month period. However, from a regular shortwave listener's perspective, at the start of a new season, they want to know if the frequency has changed since they last listened on the previous day or previous week - They won't remember a frequency from a season ago!
5. You may see an occasional change to some of the frequencies listed below in upcoming weeks. This is not unusual as broadcasters may discover they have clashed with other stations or receive reports of poor reception in the target zones. Sometimes, it can take a few weeks for everything to settle in a new transmission season.

Equipment: Yaesu FTDX3000 transceiver, Kenwood TS2000 transceiver.

Antennas: 100m long horizontal sky loop antenna, a delta loop antenna for 10 MHz and a double bazooka antenna for 14 MHz.

Abbreviations:
NF = New frequency for the A21 transmission season
QRM = Interference from another station
// = The same broadcast simultaneously on another frequency, i.e. in parallel.

Heavy co-channel QRM here and from remote SDRs in SAs and SEAs until CRI s/off at 1530. There are definitely other vacant channels for KBS to inhabit! Apr 4.
