This is VOA Radiogram in MFSK32.
We continue our experiments with non-Latin alphabets, this time
with Persian. Persian is read from right to left, and that will
be apparent as it prints out on your display. This transmission
in Persian is 1:17...

This is VOA Radiogram on the Voice of America. I'm Kim Elliott in
Washington.
Before VOA Radiogram occupied all of my spare time, another
project, www.kimandrewelliott.com, occupied all of my spare time.
This website aggregated news about international broadcasting,
with occasional comments and analyses of my own.
Because of requests that I resume kimandrewelliott.com, I will
attempt to find time for it _and_ for VOA Radiogram by
incorporating selected news from the website into this program.
The first news item from kimandrewelliott.com is in plain text.
In the plain text items, a shortened URL below the headline
provides a link to the post at kimadrewelliott.com The post <==== missing in LSB & USB....... ;-)
contains links to each news story.
Al Jazeera says its satellite signals are jammed from Egypt.
The Guardian, 3 Sept 2013, Lisa O'Carroll: "The source of jamming
of al-Jazeera's Egyptian TV service is outside Cairo, according
to a company that investigates interference with satellite
signals. Bruno Dupas, president of Integral Systems, said his
company was able to geo-locate the origin of the interference
which al-Jazeera says it has been suffering on a daily basis
since 3 July when Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi was deposed.
... Al-Jazeera, which commissioned the investigation, said the
locations Integral provided are close to Egyptian military sites,
leading it to believe the jamming was carried out by the Egyptian
government."
Gulf Times (Doha), 6 Sept 2013: "'The Al Jazeera Network condemns
the jamming of its operations and stresses that any attempt to
disturb the broadcast will not affect the network’s quest to
report facts and bring truth to viewers,' [a] statement said. 'In
reaction to this clear violation of broadcasting rights, Al
Jazeera has decided to take legal advice and action against those
who are responsible for the jamming of the signal.'"
Al Jazeera English, 4 Sept 2013: "The Qatar-based broadcaster has
been forced to change frequencies several times to allow viewers
to continue to watch the network's news and sport channels."
Egypt Independent, 7 Sept 2013, translating Al-Masry Al-Youm:
"Qatar will maneuver around the Egyptian government’s shutdown of
Al-Jazeera, media experts say, by launching its first satellite
'Suhail 1' in a bid to reaffirm its place in Arab media. ... [A]
source expressed fear of the consequences of the ruling which
ordered Al-Jazeera channels be banned on Nilesat. The source said
Al-Jazeera, which monopolizes all international and continental
sporting events, will move to Suhail 1, taking all football and
sports audience."

BBC's Japanese service is BBC World News translated into Japanese
BBC World News press release, 2 Sept 2013: "Starting today, Yuji
Watanabe will join BBC World News Japan as Managing Director,
heading up the BBC’s new business in Japan. His priorities as
Managing Director will be exploring new business opportunities
for the channel, expanding existing platforms and building the
profile of BBC World News with Japanese audiences. BBC World News
has been available to Japanese audiences since 1994 and Japan
continues to be a key market for the channel’s international
business strategy. It is currently the only territory in which
the BBC translates its English-language content into the national
language." [BBC World News is a 24-hour global English television
news channel.]
Daventry, England, honors its BBC World Service history in a
roundabout way.
Daventry Express, 25 Aug 2013: "The final design for a piece of
artwork at one of the gateways to the [Daventry] town centre has
been voted for by the public. 'Daventry Calling' was the winning
piece, representing the town’s broadcasting heritage with
symbolic masts radiating words to the world. The artwork will go
on the roundabout at the junction of Abbey Street and South Way
and has been paid for by the developers of the nearby Abbey
Retail Park... . The BBC World Service was originally broadcast
from Borough Hill using the radio call sign of 'Daventry Calling'
making the town’s name well-known across the world. In 1935, this
radio station was used for the first-ever practical demonstration
of radar. The sculpture will stand at around 7 metres high and
will consist of five 'masts' with a laser-cut 'radio wave' text
ring." [Of course, in the 1930s, it was the BBC Empire Service.
"World Service" came decades later.]

Deal brings CNN to former Yugoslavia and maybe to its languages.
Digital TV Europe, 5 Sept 2013: "Turner Broadcasting has signed a
broadcast affiliate agreement with N1, a new channel for the
Adria region. Under the agreement, N1 will be the exclusive news
channel affiliate of CNN in the region, joining CNN’s extensive
global network of affiliate channels. The deal gives N1 exclusive
access to video and newsgathering resources from CNN
International including live breaking news, news stories and
programming, for transmission in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia and
Herzegovina. N1 also will also have the option of translating
selected CNN programming and news into localised languages for
the first time in the region. N1 will give CNN access to its own
reporting from the Adria region, which will be gathered by teams
based in its Belgrade headquarters and in regional hubs including
Sarajevo and Zagreb."
followthemedia.com, 10 Sept 2013, Michael Hedges: Kanal N1 "is
already seen competing with Al-Jazeera Balkans, which was
launched in Sarajevo in November 2011."

Gaoxin-7(高新七号), marks an important step forward for
People's Liberation Army's (PLA) psychological warfare
capabilities. Based on a Y-8 airframe (similar to the U.S. Military's C-130),
the Gaoxin-7's primary mission is to conduct PSYOP missions against enemy

China (PRC) media has compared the
Gaoxin-7 to the U.S. Air Force's (USAF) EC-130J 'Commando Solo' in terms of its
