BRAZIL 5045 Radio Nacional Brasilia heard on this frequency on October
1, 2010 around 0400 UTC. Most probably relayed by Radio Cultura do Para -
an unusual format here instead of the former regular musical program
called "Cultura Madrugada". Frequent "Radio Nacional Brasilia" IDs.

talking in Portuguese, lots of mentions of Nacional, full ID as "Radio

CANADA [and non] 6070, CFRX still open carrier only, Sept 24 at 0113 UT
check. When will they notice at HQ and get around to going out to the
transmitter site to fix it?
6070, still open carrier only from CFRX, Sept 24 at 0607; and around
1245 UT mixing with North Korea audio.
6070, another day with no modulation from CFRX, Sept 27 at 1201 just
carrier making fast SAH with VOK playing DPRK NA, 1203 re-opening final
hour of Japanese. NK is not on 6071, as someone recently reported, but
within SAH range of CFRX, one or both just a few Hz off 6070.
6070, still open carrier, obviously CFRX with the lost modulation still
ignored, meanwhile burning up a kWh for over a week, as of 0531 UT Sept
29. It could be a very simple problem to fix. I wonder if Steve Canney of
ODXA has noticed these reports, as in 2008 he was their liaison / QSL
manager for CFRX and eventually helped to get them back on air in 2009 and
modulating properly after long downtime. There was also a CFRX yg which I
can no longer reach, deleted?

This is the latest.
CFRX Update: September 27, 2010.
It came to my attention via e-mailed reports that CFRX was transmitting a
carrier but no audio. I alerted the Chief Engineer Ian Sharp about this
and he said a technician would be at the site this week to check into it
further. I was at the site today and called Ian on my cell phone to tell
him what I saw. I followed his instructions over the phone to try and
troubleshoot the audio issue but I couldn't get audio into the
