Philippine DX news no.30
Philippine DX News No.30August 09, 2009Hello everyone and welcome to the August edition of the Philippine DX News. This is report No.30 and I’m Henry Umadhay in Antique, Central Philippines.Glad to be back and thank you for tuning by. In today’s program we have few items.First,
RADIO FREE ASIA RELEASES THIRD RADIO PIONEER QSL CARD
Radio Free Asia announces the release of the third QSL card in its Radio Pioneer series. The card honors Serbian-born American physicist, Nikola Tesla. Tesla was a pioneer in many fields. The Tesla coil, which he invented in 1891, is widely used today in electronic equipment. Nikola Tesla patented the basic system of radio in 1896. Tesla’s schematic diagrams describing the basic elements of a radio transmitter were later used by Marconi. In 1896 Tesla constructed an instrument to receive radio waves. He experimented with this device and transmitted radio waves from his New York laboratory. The radio device clearly establishes Nikola Tesla as a radio pioneer. In Colorado Springs, where he stayed from May 1899 until 1900, Tesla made what he regarded as his most important discovery– terrestrial stationary waves. By this discovery Tesla proved the Earth could be used as a conductor and would be as responsive as a tuning fork to electrical vibrations of a certain frequency. He also lighted 200 lamps without wires from a distance of 25 miles and created man-made lightning. The QSL card below will be issued for all valid RFA reception reports from July 1 – August 31, 2009.For more information visit www.rfa.org
FEBC Philippines
After 61 years of broadcasting the Good News, FEBC privileged to minister to different ethnic groups through their heart languages. Our stations in Mindanao have broadcasts in Cebuano, which is widely used in the region. They also carry programs in Ilonggo and other Visayan languages. In addition, there are broadcasts in particular tribal dialects, such as Tiruray, Manobo and T’Boli in 1116 DXKI Koronadal and Matigsalog in 1197 DXFE Davao. When 1143 DZMR Santiago City begins to operate, there will be broadcasts in Ilocano, which is the lingua franca or the most common language in Northern Luzon and the Cordilleras. Furthermore, there will be programs in Ibanag, Itawis and Ifugao, which are the heart languages of some people groups in the area. We hope to eventually broadcast in 10 more languages and dialects in the years to come.

July 12, 2009
Hello everyone and welcome to the July edition of the Philippine DX News. This is report No.29 and I’m Henry Umadhay in Antique, Central Philippines.Glad to be back and thank you for tuning by.
For the first item this time.
Church acquires TV/Radio franchise in the Philippines
One of the latest feats in the history of the church in the Philippines was to acquire a license to operate television and radio stations in the country. For some years this had been the dream of church leaders to go on air by way of obtaining a franchise for nationwide broadcasts.
That historic event was sealed on May 21, after several months of negotiation, when the officers of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in southern Philippines (SPUC) signed the memorandum of agreement with Conal and Digital Holdings. This legal document transfers the right of the former owner to the Adventist Church to operate a television and radio network in the Philippines. Henceforth, Hope Channel will operate its stations in the Philippines under this franchise.
The acquirement of the franchise started the process of applying for TV and radio frequencies in towns and cities all over the country, said Dr Jonathan C Catolico, communication director for the church in the southern Asia-Pacific region (SSD).
The representatives of the church have started working with the government’s national telecommunication commission to process applications for frequencies. An initial number of 20 ultra high frequency stations have been targeted to cover a wide geographical area of the country.
The Hope Channel studio facility in Cagayan de Oro City will serve as the headquarters of Hope Channel in the Philippines. Other production studios in northern and central Philippines will beef up production for national and international broadcasts.
Pastor Wendell Serrano, SPUC president,signed the transfer agreement on behalf of the Adventist Church in the Philippines.
Under special fund of the world church, the establishment of the Adventist broadcasting network in the Philippines, along with the setting up of Hope Channel production facilities in the three regions of the country, and program production for local and international broadcasts will hasten the completion of the Lord’s work in this part of the world,” remarked church leaders.
Broadcasting Pioneer DZRH Turns 70
70 years ago, at exactly 6 in the morning, announcer Hal Bowie took his seat before a microphone in a little studio at the top of the Heacock Building in Escolta, and bid his unseen audience good morning. Thus was born the fourth commercial radio station to operate in Manila. In just a few years, with the entire Philippine archipelago caught in the maelstrom of the Second World War, the fledgling station – which took the call sign KZRH – would buck the challenge of history and remain as the only surviving radio station in the country.
It’s a suspicious beginning as the mouthpiece of one of the largest department stores in the Pacific must have laid the groundwork for the station’s commercial viability all these years – a major factor in the survival of the so-called “stepchild of media arts.”
New as it was, KZRH management led by Bertrand Silen was not just armed with the technical know-how in radio operations, but likewise had fundamental marketing knowledge down pat. They knew what radio listeners liked and disliked.
Musical variety shows, comedy skits, and short newscasts were the order of the day. Jazz and ballads became standard fare. Together with American wit, the English language spread. KZRH found itself as an advertising medium. Apart from 15-minute block time sold to advertisers, commercial spots mixing announcements with music were also produced. KZRH found itself amidst lucrative times.
Then came the grim shadow of war. The Japanese Imperial Army took over the sophisticated equipment, which eventually got blown sky-high by the Americans. And while Silen’s staff – considered the best in the Far East – found themselves either in Bataan at the internment camps of Santo Tomas and Los Banos, within the guerilla movement, or simply felled by enemy bullets, plans for the rebirth of KZRH upon liberation were kept alive.
Upon being released, Silen sought help from the National Broadcasting Company in New York to secure new transmitters, and with the financing the new operations at the Insular Life Building on Plaza Cervantes, KZRH was back on the air under the auspices of Manila Broadcasting Company on July 1, 1946 – just in time to cover the inauguration of the new Republic.
Soon after, the International Telecommunications Union adjusted the call letters of Philippine radio, and all allusions to the western United States through the letter K were removed. Until today, all radio stations in the Philippines begin with the letter D.
Over a decade, the station embarked on a “One Nation, One Station” initiative, expanding its coverage to an unprecedented 97% of the Philippine archipelago. To date, DZRH is the only station in the country that is on the air nationwide 24/7 on stereo, simulcast via satellite to relay stations in key provincial cities.

Philippine DX News No.25
Philippine DX News No.25
Hello everyone and welcome to the march 8th edition of Pilipinas DX. A special 2nd year Anniversary presentation. This is report number 25 and I’m Henry Umadhay in San Jose de Buenavista, Antique, in central Philippines.
Glad to be back and thank you for tuning by.
Our limited 2nd year anniversary QSL card is available and to those who would like to collect please just kindly send your reception reports to:pilipinadx@yahoo.com
This card featuring our province Antique.
Antique is a province located in the Western Visayas region. Its capital is San Jose de Buenavista and is located at the western portion of Panay Island, bordering Aklan, Capiz, and Iloilo to the east. Antique faces the Sulu Sea to the west.
Antique was one of the three old districts of Panay before the Spanish colonizers arrived in the islands. The Antique was then known as Hantik, which was named after the large red ants found on the island, called hantik. The Spanish chroniclers, however, recorded it as “Hantique” in the French manner. Later, the initial “h” was dropped, and the name officially became “Antique.”
Antiqueños are very hospitable people who would go out of their way to extend assistance to visitors and guests.
A typical rural area with agriculture, fishery, livestock and poultry, forestry, trade, commerce, and industry and mineral resources
The mineral resources that abound in the province are coal, marble, copper, gold, limestone, silica gemstone and others. An indication of oil deposit was recently discovered at Maniguin Island in Culasi.
Antique is composed of 18 municipalities. Famous for it’s Rafflesia,the biggest flower in the world discovered in the 5511hectare Sibalom National park.
Historians believe that the earliest people who settled on the island of Panay were tribal Negritos or Atis. Oral history, related as the legend of Maragtas, states that in 1212, ten Malay datus escaped persecution from Sri-Vishaya, a Hindu-Malay empire that existed at that time in Borneo and Sumatra. These datus, led by Datu Puti, sailed with their families and communities from Borneo northward and landed on Panay .
There they met the Negrito chieftain Marikudo. They bought the island from the chieftain for a golden saduk (headpiece or helmet), and a golden necklace, among other gifts. The Negritos then retreated to the mountains, while the Borneans settled in the lowlands. Today, the landing is commemorated every year in Antique in the Binirayan festival.
The island of Panay was then divided into three districts. These are Hantik, Aklan, and Irong-Irong. Aklan became the present-day Aklan and Capiz, Irong-Irong became Iloilo, and Hantik became Antique. Hantik was named for the large red ants found on the island called lantik-lantik.
The district of Hantik was given to Datu Sumakwel one of the ten datus, and who, according to tradition, was the oldest and wisest of them. The three districts were later governed as a political unit called the Confederation of Madia-as, also under Datu Sumakwel.
Datu Sumakwel founded the town of Malandog , considered to be the first Malay settlement in the country. Malandog is now a barangay in the present-day municipality of Hamtic, which was named after the historic district.
Binirayan festival
This started in San Jose de Buenavista 34 years ago by the late Gov. Evelio B. Javier - a week long festivities of colorful street parades, beach shows, plaza concerts, beauty contest and trade fair. “Binirayan” biray or “sailboat” in Kinaray-a, Antique’s local language), refers to the difficult journey of the 10 datus to reach Malandog beach, where they befriended the Atis (Aetas) and eventually started a civilization in pre-Hispanic times.
We have only one MW station dyKA 801 khz and two fm station HotFm and Radio Natin Fm.
For some DX News
