S28

A Buzzer oddity was noticed by Jan Michalski on 3 September at 2120 UTC.

The station emitted a background audio noise stronger than the channel marker itself. Short (~0.3-0.5 sec.) transmission breaks occurred quite often. The problem was most probably caused by a malfunction of the transmitter or the audio feeder line.

The Mazielka [X06] popped up a number of frequencies in September:

XSL / XSW / XM

The Slot Machine [XSL] was good audible during various evenings here in Holland. I copied it on 6417, 6445, 8588, 8703.5 and 8313 kHz.

The Whales [XM] almost daily on 5435 kHz.

Squeaky Wheel [XSW], although weak, daily audible on 3828.9 kHz

Jammers

The number of jammer reports were amazing this month. Especially the Chinese music jammers seem to be a popular target for jammer hunters. Not only the Chinese were active but others like the bubble and wobble jammers from Iran Iraq Cuba N.Korea and reportedly also from Kyrgyzstan and Chechenya were heard.
