Welcome to the January DiaLogs. New stations this month are CUMM "The Masturbation Station", Radio City a European station relayed via ???, Radio Fornication, Radio Mirage a British station relayed via NAPRS, Radio Toronto who was testing on 43 meters, Starshine Radio from Scandinavia relayed via Radio Doomsday and WKHz. Congratulations to Cap'n Eddy of the Radio Airplane for surviving 2 years, Nemesis of Radio Doomsday for his first anniversary and to Joe of One Voice Radio who made it back after a 3 year abscence. KTVI spans another continent this month! They were logged in New Zealand by Graham Barclay of Kiwi Radio. Congratulations! CLANDESTINE STATIONS & PROGRAMS La Voz del CID, Guatemala NOV 29 - 0410-0440+ - 9922.0 KHz - AM - OM ancr w/ Cuban pop tunes, ID's as "Radio Camilo Cienfuegos", many mentions of Cuba. Moved here to escape Cuban jamming on nominal 9942v KHz which the Cubans are still jamming even though the station has moved. Cuban jamming also on 9955 KHz directed at Lv de la Fundacion via WRMI and on 9965 KHz directed towards Radio Caiman which is apparently a CIA sponsored station based in Costa Rica. While tuning around, I also noted the same "Cuban Style" jamming on 7340 KHz an old LV del CID frequency, guess Castro's not taking any chances!

DIALOGS D-XTRA I am pleased to announce the first ACE Pirate DXer of the Year competition! This year long contest will start on 0000 January 1st, 1995 and ends on 2359 December 31st, 1995. Scoring is as follows: Distant Lands loggings are worth 4 points, North America MW, SW & FM and Clandestine loggings are worth 2 points, Submitting material for D-Xtra and IDing UNID's will get you 1 point per item, and UNID logs are worth 1/2 point. Your total points are then multiplied by the total number of different stations heard for a final score. I will and try to keep scores but your own record keeping will be appreciated. Periodic scores will be printed from time to time as space allows. First Prize, well you're just going to have to wait but I assure you it will be very nice. Prizes will also be awarded to Second and Third place scores. Good Luck and Have Fun! Graham Barklay from Kiwi Radio checks in this month. Graham is offering 30 minute blocks of airtime to be relayed via Kiwi Radio. Keep in mind that Graham does NOT support "studio pirates" so I assume this offer is only good for those that do their own transmitting. If you're interested, contact him at PO Box 3103, Onekawa, Napier, New Zealand. Radio Kiwi has also changed their s econdary 41 Meter frequency from 7455 KHz to 7460 KHz. That should be a better choice for us in North America. That frequency is used after 0850 GMT. The name conflict of Radio Dublin has been straightened out, it's Radio Dublin. I have no idea where the Dublin Community Radio IDs originated. They have also moved to 6915v KHz and appear to operate irregularly or at least no longer on a 24 hour schedule. Jesse Rose checks in this month posing the question "I wonder how fair the SIO code is to the stations?". Jesse also adds I have been hunting pirates about 5 months now. Currently I'm using a portable radio with no fancy features such as Sync Detection and a 23 foot reel-in antenna. How could this radio compare with a nice tabletop & antenna? I am currently saving for a tabletop and should have it in 3 or 4 months, I LOVE CHASING PIRATES! Well Jesse, in answer your first question, that's why it's important in your reception reports to tell the station what kind of gear you're using so they can take that into account when judging reception. SIO is a relative indication and was never intended to be precise. The (I)nterference value is one of the more important fields and you should also discern between QR(N)atural or QR(M)an Made interference. If your next radio has an S-Meter, it's always helpful to include S-Meter readings as well. I hope this helps.
