DX Fanzine, an electronic newsletter which was originally edited in 1999/2000, brings together tips and news as contributed by individual DXers or ascertained from different sources. We are interested in any change about frequencies, times, language-services, transmitters, programme contents, phone and fax-numbers, electronic and postal address, station personnel.
The purpose of DX Fanzine, which doesn’t pretend to be in competition with any other electronic DX newsletter, is to provide timely and topical news and information to shortwave enthusiasts worldwide.
It is available on the web at http://www.dxfanzine.com and updated as soon as loggings, DX news, frequency upadates as well as QSL notes are received from any SWL around the world.
Although the primary platform for delivery of DX FANZINE information remains its web site, it is turned into a pdf file, (where you can see the final version of it with loggings and information, just as they appear online), a couple of days after the end of each month and sent out FREE
to anyone who has subscribed. The current as well as the previous editions of DX Fanzine (including those of years 1999/2000!) can be accessed from its home page and are there almost indefinitely.
NB: All times, days and dates are day/month GMT-UTC, unless otherwise stated.
Logs are entered in frequency order. Reception quality abbreviations: P = Poor, F = Fair, G = Good, E = Excellent.
Language Abbreviations: AA=Arabic, CC=Chinese, CT=Catalan, DD=Dutch, EE=English, FF: French, GG= German, IT=Italian, JJ=Japanese, PP=Portoguese, RM=Romanian, RR=Russian, SS=Spanish, VV=Vernacular
Material from DX Fanzine may be redistributed, posted to any other location, published or used for broadcast, provided it be fully credited to DX Fanzine and the original and intermediate sources.

CONGO (DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF)
Michel ANGAIKA BHABA, director of Radio Tele Candip, says in an E-mail message dated 19th March
2016, they are on air on 5066 kHz with 1 kW, from 0430 to 1100 and from 1600 to 2200 local time.
He adds that Congo DR is UTC+2 (so the schedule in UTC should be 0230-0900 and 1400-2000). He
also says they are looking for some spare tubes which are not available in Congo DR, asking if
I can help him by suggesting where those spares can be found in Italy. Unfortunately he didn't
mention which kind of tubes he needs. Last but not least: he states they also broadcast on VHF
FM with 500 watts. (Antonello Napolitano Taranto-ITALY).

Radio Candip, 5066 kHz, verified an E-mail report 81 days after a F/UP for a reception
report of 1985!! with a long and friendly E-mail. V/S: Michel ANGAIKA BHABA, Chef de Section
CANDIP et Directeur de la Radio Télévision Communautaire CANDIP-ISP/Bunia (RTCC); Coordonnateur
de l’Association des Radios Communautaires et de Proximité du Haut-Uélé et de l’Ituri (ARCPHI).
Contacts: +243 (0) 817363753 / 998714482 / 893453829 / 859186203. Mail: michelbhaba@gmail.com or
michel_bhaba@yahoo.fr. Adresse du Centre: 1, Av. du CANDIP, Q. MUDZI-PELA, Ville de BUNIA,
Province de l’ITURI, RD Congo. NB: In August 2015 I already received an E-mail message confirming
my very old reception report. Mr. Bhaba also promised to send me in the next days a verification
letter as an attachemnt. As I never received such a letter in December 2015 I wrote a second E-mail.
Mr. Bhaba says in his reply he was experiencing lot of problems with Internet connection during the
last months and for this reason he wasn't able to keep his promise. The report was sent to:
radiotelecandipisp@gmail.com.
How I got this reply is a little bit funny and intriguing. In summer of 2015, after hours and hours
of research on Google I found a website from India (!) which included the E-mail address of Mr. Frank
Bura Dhengo, a librarian and teacher of "Institut Supérieur Pédagogique de Bunia"(ISP). As I was aware
there is a link between ISP and Radio Candip, I wrote to Mr.Bura Dhengo explaining that, despite some
F/ups via snail-mail, I never received a reply from Radio Candip. I attached my original report (of 1985!)
and mp3 recording. As I didn't know any E-mail contact for this station I asked him to forward my report
to Radio Candip. After a few days I received the following reply from Mr. Bura Dhengo: "Merci Mr
Napolitano pour ce contact intéressant sur la Radio CANDIP. En 1985, je produisais encore des émissions
à la radio CANDIP. Pour de meilleurs échanges avec la Radio CANDIP, je partage avec vous son adresse
Email,laquelle permettra que vous échangiez régulièrement avec les responsables actuels. Adresse Email:
radiotelecandipisp@gmail.com. Pour le moment, la Radio CANDIP émet sur 5066 KHz avec l'émetteur
Bauer 1 KW. Les deux autres antennes Onde courte sont en panne. En outre, je viens de transférer votre
message à la radio CANDIP pour une suite plus riche. En ce qui concerne la boîte postale de la Radio
CANDIP, il faut utiliser 340 ou 373 BUNIA-ITURI RD CONGO. Quant à moi, je suis actuellement Enseignant
et Bibliothécaire toujours à l'ISP/Bunia, et je fais beaucoup de recherches dans le domaine d'histoire
et de la documentologie. Avec l'espoir que nous resterons en contact. Amicalement Franck BURA DHENGO".
Two days after Mr. Bhura Dhengo reply I got an E-mail confirmation from Michel ANGAIKA BHABA, director
of Radio TV Candip who promised to send me later an appropriate verification letter as attachment.
Last but not least: I never spread this story to shortwave community (Only a few DX friends knew about
my special contact with Radio Candip) as I decided to keep a low profile until the reception of a new
feedback from Mr. Bhaba. Despite this on 30th September 2015 I sent contact details of Mr.Bhaba to
Mauno Ritola so he can ask him if the information in WRTH was correct.(Antonello Napolitano Taranto

second E-mail explaining what's happened and I got this reply: "RADIO DARC broadcasts are Sundays
10 hrs UTC and Mondays 16 and 19 hrs UTC all on 6070 kHz. If you have received another transmission,
it is not from us or it might be a re-broadcast by a pirate. There are some pirates from Holland who
often re-broadcast recorded other transmissions e.g. from Channel 292, also in 6070 kHz. So I am
also not sure what you heard, but on 4895 kHz it is not an original broadcast of RADIO DARC. Kind

RADIO HABANA CUBA WILL SOON SPEAK ITALIAN by Antonello Napolitano.
Radio Habana Cuba will start broadcasting in Italian as soon as possible. This explains why that language
has recently been added to its website. Italian is the only language among those available on Radio
Habana Cuba’s official website that is not used for its short wave broadcasts, too. “We started by adding
the Italian language website and as more personnel is available, a half hour daily short wave broadcast
to the Mediterranean region – says Arnie Coro, DX Editor of Radio Habana Cuba - will go on the air”.
Currently there is only one editor who updates the Italian section of Radio Habana Cuba’s official website.
But of course for a daily 30 minute broadcast a larger staff is necessary. “It is our perception –
comments Mr. Coro - that one can start to feed news and features to a web site with a one person staff,
but it is not wise to start a half hour daily program with just one voice on the air!!! Our past
experiences with languages such as Portuguese, Creole and Quechua have demonstrated that the right thing
to fully guarantee a daily broadcast is to have at least two multi-purpose persons, and better yet three...
By multi-purpose I mean a person capable of writing news and scripts, and also with a good on the air voice
too!!!”.
Despite the never-stopping decline of shortwave broadcasting Mr Coro still believes in it. “The absurd idea
that everyone is connected to the Internet , is just that, an absurd idea. There are many areas of the world
where Internet connectivity is simply non-existent, and in other areas the bandwidth and reliability of the
connections leaves a lot to be desired, even in highly developed nations areas. Hopefully in the not too
distant future the now not so new Digital Radio Mondiale may benefit from the availability of good quality
and relatively low cost DRM capable receivers...”. Even the small shortwave audience in Europe and North
America seems to not discourage Mr. Coro. “Regular short wave listeners, let us say fans are not too many
in developed countries, but my personal experience is that they constitute ¨a high quality audience¨ in the
sense that we are dealing with highly educated and influential persons...”
Radio Habana Cuba: C’è anche l’italiano
(The Italian version was originally written for www.coradx.it - Versione italiana scritta in esclusiva
per www.coradx.it da cui è tratta)
Radio Habana Cuba inizierà un programma in lingua italiana nel più breve tempo possibile. A renderlo noto é
il Professor Arnie Coro, DX editor dell'emittente cubana. Si spiega così l'inaspettata introduzione qualche
settimana fa di una pagina in italiano, aggiornata regolarmente, sul sito web ufficiale dell'emittente.
Il futuro programma avrà cadenza giornaliera e durerà trenta minuti. Ad impedire il contestuale avvio del
nuovo servizio è, secondo il Professor Coro, l'attuale mancanza di un numero sufficiente di redattori che
parlino la lingua italiana. Attualmente la pagina web di Radio Habana Cuba nella nostra lingua è curata da
una sola persona. Ma questo, ovviamente, non basta per produrre una trasmissione quotidiana. "L'esperienza
maturata con i programmi in Portoghese, Creolo e Quechua ci ha insegnato - sostiene Coro- che il modo
migliore per produrre quotidianamente una trasmissione è quello di poter contare su due, o ancora meglio,
tre redattori capaci di scrivere le notizie ed i testi dei programmi e che siano dotati anche di una bella
voce".
Probabilmente non sarà facile trovare in tempi brevi il personale qualificato ma la strada sembra ormai
tracciata. Coro smentisce anche alcune illazioni circa il futuro delle trasmissioni in onde corte di Radio
Habana Cuba che potrebbero cedere il passo allo streaming online. "L'idea che tutti siano connessi a
Internet é assurda. Ci sono ancora molte aree del mondo - afferma - dove il collegamento Internet é
semplicemente inesistente, mentre in altre aree, persino nei paesi sviluppati, la larghezza della banda e
l'affidabilità delle connessioni lasciano spesso a desiderare ".
Per il DX editor di Radio Habana Cuba il futuro delle trasmissioni sulle onde corte appartiene al non più
tanto nuovo sistema DRM, a patto però che lo stesso possa beneficiare dell'introduzione sul mercato di
ricevitori adeguati ed a basso costo.
Il Professor Coro crede ancora nelle onde corte e, tramontato il tempo del loro utilizzo per diffondere
la propaganda di natura politica, lascia intendere che possano avere ancora un senso per i paesi in via
di sviluppo alla ricerca di investimenti. “Gli ascoltatori abituali delle onde corte o appassionati non
sono molti nei paesi sviluppati. Tuttavia, per quella che è la mia esperienza personale so – conclude -
che essi costituiscono un’audience di alta qualità, nel senso che ci troviamo di fronte a persone con un
livello di istruzione molto alto ed influenti…”.
