My friends at Radio Damascus are asking to monitor both frequencies which are registered at Radio Damascus : 9330 kHz and 12085 kHz . Although I haven't personally monitored 12085 Khz for a very long time, some listeners did think to have heard the Spanish program of Radio Damascus recently again on this frequency (see Glenn Hauser's DX LISTENING DIGEST 9-010, February 1, 2009).
Maybe Radio Damascus re-activated 12.085 Khz again. My own monitoring of Radio Damascus on 9330 Khz in Belgium gives the following results :
1800 UTC : German : if on the air, fair to strong signal (1)
1900 UTC : French : idem but heavy interference from Radio Farda (?), using a transmitter in Kuwait (1)
2000 UTC : English : only on satellite - no shortwave
2100 UTC : English, second hour : no reception on shortwave -signal too weak
2200 UTC : Spanish : idem as English at 2100 UTC
(1) Very weak modulation. Even when 9330 kHz is on the air with a strong signal, it is very difficult listening because the extremely low audio signal.
May I ask all listeners of Radio Damascus, wherever they are, to monitor both frequencies 9330 kHz and 12085 kHz) in the coming days and to send their comments and reports to this email address :
radiodamascusenglish@yahoo.com
Please also report on the modulation. I will forward every report immediately to the head of the English section at Radio Damascus.
