Wai FM 11665 starting /ending times !

 the station suffers from very irregular starting times though ending times have a tighter time that is between  1357-1402  this list  to be updated as far as i will be able to do that...

 

 5.4

11665 ONLY !!!

 Wai FM with regional music but with talks in standard Malay  non 2138  and signal on -75dbm in Bandung song “…ku mentara pagi” , then Heavy mental  song . in PHL with -65 dbm  and Alessandro in wai FM before 2155 then joget song ON 2200zand then  with kita[b]I  program for Catholics . motioning many times kita[b]i.

Kitabi  is the indo term  for the Christian religious sanctioned book[s] .

On 6/4 once again checked on the bands since 20z . The signal started on 203630±15 sec with signal -80dbm in PHL or -65in Bandung. Checked also on Perch AU  with -65dbm  

On 7/4 via Jakarta with -73 but herd strong on 0639 with Christian  religious program told by male speaker  Ended 0653 with description by YL “Tuhan Yesus”  and followed with  a Rohani song. 2x7 kZH wide. “Limbang FM” ID at 0658  Morning program started around 2204-10 

8/4  started some when between 2205-2210

9/4  there was nearly no propagation  towards Banding or the southern places giving nearly taces of signal 0n 2150+ . Seems they started around 2152 with best signal in Thailand ih levels to -70dbm

10/4 the station started much earlier than I expected with signal already booming on 2136  via Jakarta at -60dbm signal while in Bangkok the  signal was marginal . This possibly was due to  Eid ul Fitr or end of Ramadan.  Between  live feed vs kSDR ,programs were not the same even if on 22z both were IDed as Wai FM (!!)  Instead Limbang FM stream  was in // with  kSDRs  ahead by 15 seconds

(Think a bit before  reacting)

0607 no signal  in any kSDR  today local morning on 0615 …  

7290 no signal from Nabire same time

No signal on 2130 or 2230 z However around 00z it was already on with +60 in jakarta!

11/4 Tested on local morning with the stream to be in near // with Limbang FM 

12/4

Later,1140 heard Wai again via Jak kSDR with -65 dbm signal for around 15 minutes

No signal on 22 but check 00z to be in the band

13/4 tested 13+ to be // Limbang FM stream , went off before 14z . Continue to listen to the stream and  IDing as Wai FM with is TOH ID seemed as Wahai  Wai FM (Oh my )

Continued listening  to Sarawak for some time with nice joget songs on hari raya  by a group of local singers

 

note: local day numbers! (previous UTC  date )

15/4 with station s/off 11z! Something always weird happening in Kajang!

19/4  tuned 22.z already in the band Same on 20/4 

20/4  heard Libang via the net for 12-14  with this rough program
12-1230 : prayer  very long indeed , 1230-13z music and talks , 13-1305? news from the base (KL) 1330 -45 religious again m 1345 - 1357* with songs  

In the 22 zone, they are steadily available in the band after 19/4.

22/4 Via Jakatra kSDR with finally Wai FM 1665   in // to the live scream with -85dbm signal which is quite low I think . There is an local electricity noise afaik that suddenly stopped leving te signal in the clear!  Spiritual song  while the live scream is in mono.. in contrast Sarawak FM is in stereo .Didnt  someone know that   mono as “blackoke” are killing music?

Back to the shortwaves  Wai is airing local S’waki  songs on -0715

Still nothing on 9835. Lets better listen to them in scream,,

 11665 tested 23/4 being in // with Wai Fm . Radio Kayan Miri noted as ID on 0716 reception via Jakarta kSDR at -76dbm mean and relatively steady signal Lots of talks by YL in between this ID . 0719 “Miri FM” also noted .  Audio  is at 7.5 kHZ occupying to 15 kHz in the band nice pop music  on 0720

Lots of talks by  the female speaker , once again with Ids as radio kayan on 0732 the latest with joget music background.

Language seems not  the typical Malaysian I found many localization similar to the Asyik Fm a station I had for more than 5 years  via the web platform.  Several mentions of Sarawak.A short song remix form local songs.  0741 again with IDs then with local

Which is the lang?  The kSDR has some very short timeouts or freezes due to audio overload

Changed the kSDR into a Thailand (la6lau) continuing this long talking from the female speaker , but adding some music in between while passing  08UTC  (0801 with a pop song  )  I narrowed the passband filter to avoid interference from CNR 2on 11670 (with the info from the SDR)  0805 with advert or promo. 0806 with a rock song  Signal is -70dbm at bset as herd o 0809  at least this SDR has lesser overloads /underruns .

Used Ai program to detect text for translation but the results were bad , with good copy for the first  5 minutes.

 
23/4 start 24/4of transmission on ca 2150 with Limbang  and ID of  Wai Seems relig chorus ON  22 with program "pagi wai" (morning wai )
 
24/4 for the 25/4 transmission of  Wai /limbang Fm  with many audio under-runs during the near 22z transmission 
 
27.4  for the 28.4 transmission  on nearly 215x and via Jakarta at -60dbm . on 2250 z  the signal was -90 dbm but on PHL kSDR the signal was good 

the easiest way is to check via waterfall after 28.4 i kept the diary  using this feature accuracy of +- 5 sec
 
28.4  for the 29/4 transmission of on 2151.50 by checking water 🍂 airing Limbang FM

8-5 started 2142.15 -60 via PHL deep fades after 2147 25db Again 0418 with <-90db in PHL better in Cha An Thailand . this day seems  to have very low propagation in both LA and SEA areas as example 9730 Myanmar is  the only station heard in this SDR in the 9 MHz band
