Dear radio friends,
Please see the JSWC Bulletin DX News of the month.
The first topic is about continued suspension of Japan’s Radio Nikkei 2nd broadcast during the week.
In order to deal with the electric power shortage caused by nuclear power plant accident, Radio Nikkei
2nd broadcast continues to suspend its weekday transmission. They only air a test signal from 23:00-23:25UTC
on weekdays Japan time. At present, they air from 23:00 through 09:00UTC only on Saturdays and Sundays
on 3945, 6115 and 9760kHz.
Radio Nikkei’s 1st broadcast is aired from 22:25 through 15:00UTC on weekdays, and from 21:55 through 12:00
or 12:30UTC on weekends. Frequencies for 1st broadcast are 3925, 6055 and 9595kHz.
We are advised to reduce 15 % of electric power usage during the months of July through September.
I have changed all light bulbs to LED type and purchased an electric fan to reduce the air-conditioner
on time. Major companies decided to work on Saturday and Sunday and take holidays on weekdays when
the power consumption is larger than the weekend. We don't have Day-light saving time, but some
companies has announced to work half an hour or an hour earlier this Summer. People here are very
much interested in energy saving idea and some people plant an ivy to get shadow from Sun to reduce
an air-conditioner on time. We will see how these idea will work in Summer.
This is all for this month.
