** ALASKA [non]. 13760, UT Mon May 5 at 0338, `DX tips for beginners`
just concluding by Carl Mann, something about electronix. I think
Mann`s tips were recorded decades ago and keep recycling on ``your New
Life Station``, originally KNLS only and now via MADAGASCAR, the SSOB
at S9+10/20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 1040 kHz, May 5 at 0401 UT, wobbler beneath WHO,
only one currently audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA. 9740, May 5 at 0344, RRI English about Romanian
involvement in Gaza, relief? Only significant signal from Europe on
band. Propagationally there could be so many more if they hadn`t
deleted SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9875.003+, Sun May 4 at 2040, S9+25/30 backwards into
UTwente, starting `The Pulse of Turkey`s Foreign Policy`, yawn. 2047
music. 2051 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2053 TRTVOTVorld promo and
`Letterbox`. Hostess says recording a few days early, Thu? since was
going to be away for weekend, so shorter show. Has consulted with
Emirler about status of American antenna due to problems with 11785,
7275. There is a new technical manager. No change since last week, no
repairs posssible, apparently ground too wet to bring in heavy
equipment like crane to work on it. [Again I say nothing seems wrong
with antenna *when* it is on the air - gh]. 1) Hemming? new listener
from Germany. 2) Oykala?, Kawasaki? City, apparently Japan,
61-year-old pharmacist. 3) Siddartha ---, W Bengal, India, about World
Health Day, April 7. 4) Port Alberni, [Vancouver Island, BC] Canada.
2102 that is all, 2103 fill with Azerbaijani folk song.
So I don`t need to listen to the 22+ UT repeat on 11785, but at 2257
confirm it has been on air, 11785.006+, S9+25/30 into UTwente, IS with
extraneous German IDs to 2258.4* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. 356 MCW kHz, May 5 at 0601 UT, few NDBs audible in
local and storm noise level but here is ODX, 25 watts in Ord,
Nebraska; and on 379 MCW kHz, RU, 25 watts at RUssellville, Arkansas
which lost its E long ago, supposed to be RUE. Also on 346 MCW, dash
and YXL is JBA, SiouX Lookout, Ontario, 500 watts. If any Canadian can
arrive, this is it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5932.9, May 5 at 0348, spur from 5920 WTWW, barely
detectable in sideband of 5935 WWCR, but the match on minus side of
5920, approx. 5907.185 is obvious. Same situation as heard elsewhen
parasiting 5085, 9930. Furthermore there is splatter matching mod
peaks of TOMBS on 5920, NOT 5890 WWCR unsynchronized TOMBS, splatter
peaking around 5980 but audible up to 6020, and as close to 5890 as
5895 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9930, May 5 at 1514, open carrier at S9+30 cutting off and
on past 1516. By 1535 constant music of traditional hymns, and NOT //
9980 TOMBS on WWCR, and 1541 ID as ``5085, Ancient Word Radio on
WTWW``. Bob Biermann is very confused about frequencies; or rather
WTWW is testing with canned IDs, frequently between hymns as 9475 &
5085, especially at hourtops 1559 & 1659. 1700 into `Truth2Ponder`. So
is WTWW`s one funxional transmitter now dedicated to Biermann instead
of Stair? But at 1706 recheck 9930 is back to TOMBS, while 9980 WWCR
has gone off. Yes, 9930 now // not synchronized TOMBS on 9395 WRMI
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9330, May 5 at 0342, WLC Radio on WBCQ is finally on, S9+50
in English, after missing a couple days whenever sought (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9275, May 5 at 0241, S9+30 of dead air, but just a pause as
soon gospel huxter on WMLK, S9+30, much stronger than neighbour in
more ways than one, 9265 WINB at only S9+20/30; and WMLK fails to
provide any spurs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. 670, May 5 at 0403 UT, NO WSCR Chigago! rather
Cuban music, but WSCR may be on with open carrier. Meanwhile, 720 WGN
and 780 WBBM are VG as usual; WBBM pretends to be an FM-only station.
At 0409 also audible a very weak station in English, could be KLTT CO
or KBOI ID. By 0607 recheck, WSCR has resumed modulating stupid sports
talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 750, May 5 at 0608 after CBS news, WSB`s AM dog wagged by
95.5 FM tail, lacks any QRM from KMMJ Spanish gospel Nebraska, not
cheating with nocturnal emissions now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 630.04 approx., May 5 at 0406, low audible het = LAH
against 630.0 stations. MWoffsets has nothing further off than 630.006
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1240+, May 5 at 0359 UT, het on plus side of 1240
Graveyard pileup, presumably perennial KCRT Trinidad CO (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1476 kHz, Mon May 5 at 0357, JJBBA carrier, only 9/kHz
TA one in careful full MW bandscan direct, surely TWR BENIN, with its
low-latitude advantage, per MWlist from 0320 M-F in Hausa, 150 to 200
kW. I wonder if it be direxional favoring Nigeria, disfavoring us
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1540-, May 5 at 0359 UT, het against 1540.0 signals, no
doubt usual KGBC Galveston TX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1550-, May 5 at 0359 UT, JBA het against 1550.0 signals,
presumably XEREL Morelia, Michoacán, México (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11540 approx., May 5 at 0338, multiple tones mixing like
several CW signals on almost same frequency, narrowband unlike the
wideband unIDs I report. This is the SSOB as there are *no* broadcast
signals audible on 25m except for JBA 12050 Spanish, i.e. WEWN (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
