VOA Radiogram

バヌアツでは昨夜、未曽有の災害に見舞われた。燃料の補給ができず、結果発電ができないので停電中らしい。そんな折仙台でWCDRRが開催された。久しぶりにVOAのデータ放送を受信した。このところスーパージャミングが出ない時間帯が多くなっている。14日、土曜日もいたって静かである。0930からの5910kHzがそれなりに受信できた。こんなことは極めて珍しい。テキストは問題ないが、画像が流れてしまうのもあった。
受信できた後半部分の途中から。

From Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty:
Facebook Alternative 'Caliphatebook' Goes Offline
Joanna Paraszczuk
March 10, 2015
A site billed as the pro-Islamic State alternative to Facebook has been taken offline by its creators.
The 5elefabook website, whose name comes from the Arabic word for "caliphate," replaced its front page on March 9 with a message announcing a "temporary shutdown in order to protect the info and details of it's (sic) members and their safety."
The individuals or group behind 5elafabook also created a Twitter account, which was suspended on March 10. The site had created something of a buzz on Twitter, where some users referred to it as a "Salafi crowdsourced social site."
The website is listed as having been registered with the Arizona-based GoDaddy Internet domain registrar and ¿hUä¢o company. The contact person for the site is listed on GoDaddy as "Abu Musab" and the country in which he is based as Egypt.
However, somewhat confusingly the address given by "Abu Musab" is listed as "Islamic State Mosul."
LnW= d individual affiliated with the website told the Al-Arabiya news outlet that 5elefab etnot actually affiliated with the Islamic State group. However, those behind the site are loyal t ± h ¿oKIPÑlamic state, the individual said.
A message displayed on the site on March 10 also claimed that 5elafabook is "an independent site and is not sponsored by the Islamic state."
According to Al-Arabiya, unlike Facebook, whose members are actively encouraged to post pictures of themselves, members of "caliphatebook" were strictly forbidden from sharing their photographs, or from sharing personal information.
The site's log in page¼el I5xfalaced by a message explaining that 5elafabook's purpose "was to clarify to the whole world that we do not only carry guns and live in caves as they imagine."
While the site in6le yknžmbers "do not live to kill and spell (sic) blood as the media portrays us," 5elefabook does admit it has ambitions of global domination.
["We] will rule the whole world by Allah's permission...we love to die as much as you love to live and we promise to fight until the last one of us," the message explains.
Initially, the website's main page design featurotfûf the world with the Arabic text of the shahada (the Islamic creed) and the Seal of Muhammad -- both features of the Islamic State's black flag -- inscribed on each continent, suggesting a global takeover by the bliali! te group, or those affiliated with it.
While 5elefabook appears to be the first attempt to create a dedicated pro-Islamic State social network, there are several websites linked to the militant group. Russian-speaking Islamic State militants close to the group's military commander in Syria,
Umar Shishani, maintain a weniytget oi° that posts news and videos relating to the Islamic State group and to militant Islam in general. Records show that the FiSyria website is hosted by a company based in Istanbul.
The Islamic State group previously maintained an official Russian-language site, H-Center, which posted official Russian translations of Islamic State propaganda material and was apparently affiliated with the militant group's media wing, Al-Hayat. However, that site was taken offline late last year. Records show that the domain is currently registered to the name of Fatima Ummhamza who is based in Oleksandriya, Ukraine.

From Radio Free Asia:
North Koreans Turn to Smartphones to Evade Censorship Checks
Jieun Kim
RFA Korean Service
March 06, 2015

A new censorship policy under which authorities are tracking the
activities of cell phone users is prompting some North Koreans to
ditch their handsets and buy secondhand, touch-style smartphones
smuggled from China to access prohibited South Korean movies,
North Korean sources said.

North Korean authorities began the "1080 Sangmu" censorship
program in early February to find people who were using their
cell phones to store and acco¯outh Korean music and movies.

Downloading and watching foreign movies, especially ones produced
in South Korea, is a crime in North Korea, punishable by
imprisonment.

"Now I can't use my cell phone outside without worrying that if I
take it out of my pocket, a 1080 Sangmu member might take it and
look into the contents it holds," said a source in North Hamgyong
province, the country's northernmost province which borders
China.

Authorities are cracking down on cell phones with memory chips
that North Koreans refer to "Bbak," a proper noun which is a
rendering of the word "back." They are the chips on which music
and movies are stored and sometimes accessed overtly in broad
daylight, he said.

The source cited an example from June 2013, when some members of
Pyongyang's Unhasu Orchestra were dismissed from their positions
and punished along with some actors, because they had exchanged
adult videos from Japan using Bluetooth technology via their cell
phones.

"There are many people who have suffered at the hands of thieves
who access the contents of their cell phones [after stealing
them] and now with the 1080 Sangmu" which randomly inspects and
confiscates their phones, a source in northwestern North Korea's
Chagang province said.

Smartphones are an alternative

The crackdown has prompted some to cancel their cell phone
registrations and buy smartphones instead, sources said.

North Koreans, especially those who do business with the Chinese,
are buying smartphones in local markets for about U.S. $300, they
said.

Authorities in North Korea have the right to recall cell phones
from users who cancel their registrations without paying the
owners for recalling their phones, the source in North Hamgyong
province said.

Touch-screen type smartphones are gaining popularity because they
allow users to freely store movies and music on their memory
chips and feature games, the source in Chagang province said,
although the phones are not used for calling services.

Smugglers have noticed the growing demand for smartphones and
been supplying used ones from China to North Koreans, he said.

"Now that the 1080 Sangmu has been organized to frequently
monitor and censor cell phone use, the number of people who use
the devices to make and receive calls will decrease," he said.

"But other functions of touch-type cell phones are gaining
popularity, which means the number of unregistered, illegal
smartphones will increase," the source said.

RFA Cantonese 15260kHz

どこからか知らないが、RFAの中国向け放送が中止されるという情報があるらしい。真偽のほどは知らない、ほかの言語は続くらしいと言うからこれまたよく分からない。

そんな中広東語放送の終了部分で9月15日まで文字放送が行われた。予定では2258の15260kHzが最後のはず、いつもと変わらぬ状態で復調できている。
9月15日2258に15260kHzでの受信。


前日9月14日、同時刻15390kHzでの受診。
