There is a Radio Cima lited in the WRTH in the FM part of the Dominican Republic
called radio Cima, and it is located in Santo Domingo I`m not however 100% shure 
that this is that station. What is the FM frequency that they where announcing?
Does it corespond with the FM frequency in the WRTH? If it does that is a strong
indication that Cima is an Dominican Republic station.

When i heard it it announced something that sounded like (translated to english)
Brodcasting from the capital of Dominicana or Equadoriana, which seems to indicate
that is the radio Cima listed in WRTH.

If anyone else has any more information about this station it would be
most welcome.

It was heard in sweden around 0200 UTC with QSA 3 exept when giving the station call
on the hour when it was QSA 2.

Glenn Lasher <GL8574@acspr1.acs.brockport.edu> has howling when a control
is adjusted.  This sounds like an antenna trimmer cap to me; or an add-on
preamp maybe?

The symptoms Glenn mentioned sound a lot like you have when a decoupling
capacitor goes out.  Since this is an o-l-d radio, I'd suspect this anyway.
Most of those inexpensive radios used cheap paper capacitors for everything.

I'd replace the screen and plate decouplers with some nice disc ceramics.
Something like .001 or .01 uf, 600v or 1kv.  Start with the 12SA7 RF/OSC/
converter stage.  It would be a good idea, while you're in there, to replace
ALL those old paper caps.  By now they're probably real leaky anyway.

Good luck,

I realize you might need to be brave to try it this way, but...
Small regulated supplies, even good ones, might need some load before they
will regulate properly.  

Cheap regulators depend on a tight range of load; i.e., if it says
100-300mA, it will probably deliver reasonable volts only within those
ranges, any less, high volts, any more, low volts.

My problem with the cheap regulators is threefold:
1. It might get switched to the wrong voltage inadvertently, since the
	selector switch is usually sticking out.
2. Recently, cheap regulators have a fitsall plug, leaving exposed volts on
	several connectors that I don't want.
3.  If a cheap regulator goes bad, it probably shorts a linear regulating 
	transistor, putting full output on the load, regardless of selector
	position.

I heard them on Saturday morning with fine reception.  However, on Monday-

On September 28th I heard Radio Centinela del Sur, Ecuador, on 4871,2 kHz.
The station closed down with very clear stn identification & Ecuadorian
anthem at 0339 UTC.  This stn has been heard in Finland on various frequencies 
around the 60 mb (4770-4890 kHz) since last summer.  They must have troubles
with their transmitter as it seems to be drifting to a new frequency every 
night.

A new station from Latin America can be heard on 4962 kHz.  The station
uses id "Radio Cima" or "Radio Sima".

Has anyone more info?  According to some rumours this could be Radio HIN
from the Dominican Republic.  However, the stn announces only 60 mb short-
wave frequency plus some FM-frequency - no mention of AM/MW 1220 kHz where
Radio HIN should broadcast.

The station was heard here in Finland on 4962,0 kHz at 0230 UTC with very

The fee paid was originally supposed to cover the costs of the FCC in
attending frequency co-ordination conferences with international
broadcasters. However, at least as of earlier this year, the FCC
refused to attend those conferences.

And out-of-band is STILL out-of-band!

	The only problem with kits such as those is that you're going to
be pumping some big bucks into them.  One of the electronics mags ran
plans a couple of years ago.  The receiver was very nice -- probably the
best shortwave kit I've seen.  However, it would cover only two bands
at a time, and only 3-4 MHz per band.  You could change that, but you'd
be stuck with two bands of your choice.  The total cost of the project
was around $60 or so, I believe.  For not too much more than that you
can get the DAK receiver with digital readout and much more coverage.

	A BFO circuit for making SSB signals intelligible isn't too
difficult, and can probably be built for under $5.  Of course, if you 
want the experience of building, and the pride and thrill you get when you
power up and hear a station, then go for the kit!

I read in a magazine, or was it here, that Radio In the American Sector
(RIAS), is going to close down soon.  I logged them back in August and sent
off for a QSL card.  Just today, I got mail from them.  Upon opening th
letter, I was surprised to see what I got.  Along with the QSL, there was 3
stickers, one with logo only, one with a teddy bear (kinda cute), and one with
a big "D" (what does this mean?) on it.  Also there was 2 postcards and 2 blank
(old?) QSL cards.

Having recieved all this (kinda like a close out sale), I can only guess that
they are infact closing.  I haven't tried to see if they are still on, but some
of you might want to give them a try.  If they are still on, try 6005 Khz.  I
dont remember the time off the top of my head, but I do remember that there was
a lot of QRM from the BBC and that you had to concentrate very hard to listen to
them under the BBC's strong signal.

Also in today's mail is the new NASWA's "the JOURNAL".  Look on page 1 and
you'll see my name in the new members box at the bottom of the page. :-)

Oh, and before I go, anyone from around Mississippi on the list?

That's all for now.

Broadcast operations in this part of the spectrum are NOT the primary users.
If the broadcast station 
interferes with the primary user, which here would seem to be the RTTY 
station, then it (the broadcast station) would be the one that would 
likely need to move.

The price was $399. I also bought with it a 3years extended warranty

Radio Japan also broadcasts at 0100 UTC on 5960KHZ for 1 hour.  They do
broadcast on other frequencies at 0100 but I can't remember those off hand. 
Look in Passport to World Band Radio, Popular Communications or Monitoring
TImes for specific stations and times.  They come on at 0200 UTC on 5950KHZ in
Japanese if you want to practice your Japanese.
