Default BBC missing on some frequencies

I have noticed that the world service has been missing on 11835 lately
and tonight they are missing on 5975. I have resorted to listening to
them on 6195 for tonight.

They either are having transmitter trouble or they have changed their
schedule.

BBC was also not on 12095. I also had trouble with the usually reliable
6020 for Australia this morning. I thought it was propagation.

They are currently up on 12095 at 1645.

Yeah, I also noticed them missing on 5.975 last night, but strong as usual
on 12.095.

12095 is usually not good here. I looked around on the BBC site and it
looks like 11835 is a summer frequency. I think they went to from 11835
to 9525 for the winter.

5975 always booms in here so I have no idea why it was missing Thursday
night. When I did not find them on 5975 I scanned the 49 meter band and
I recall finding them on 6195 for some reason. That night I also
listened to them on 9525 and 6135.

12095 returned as noted by another listener. I listen on SSB b/c of an
annoying teletype signal. I don't know what that is. I've had BBC on
6195, but I get various bits of interfering signals on 6135 and 9525. I
haven't really tried to ID them, but it's something non-English. I'm a
long way north of you maybe 2500 miles and 1000 west.

Sorry to hear about the interference problems. I don't have that
problem just that 12095 is usually to weak for me to want to listen to
it. 6135 is not a strong signal for me either. 5975 is usually very
strong and 9525 seems to be as well. 11835 was good a while back.

All other BBC frequencies for me are weak most of the time. Other than
frequencies I mentioned above and a few others beamed to Mexico the next
best bet for me appears to be frequencies beamed to Africa.

I had to look at Mexico schedule (central America) to find any short
wave frequencies beamed to this part of the world. As you know they
just provide FM and now Sirius and XM satellite to the USA.

The BBC world service web site is real slow.

I couldn't hear Africa on 6005 last night (0500 UTC), which is normally
reliable. It was barely there. What other times and frqs are you getting
BBC-Afr ? I like this stream b/c its so different in focus at least part
time.

Satellite radio is available here, mostly used by truckers who are going day
and night, and people north of 60 (in the NWT and Nunavut) where you can't
get much other than CBC-northern service (if that).

What kind of receiver? If the 40 meter ham band is busy, my single
conversion FR-200 is really stuffed up from the images 910 kHz
higher.

Have you guys tried the 15280 kHz signal from Thailand, 23:00-05:30 UTC?

I have gotten them on 19 meters on 15,400 and 16 meters such as 17,830.
