** BRAZIL. 28470 USB, May 7 at 2213, PU5WMA calling CQDX in English,
working a K4. QRZ.com: ``PU5WMA Brazil flag Brazil, Marcelo Arthur
Mendes Waechter, Rua Marechal Rondon, 5051, Cascavel, PR 85813720,

Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 28193 CW, May 7 at 2204, VVV DE VE4ARM/B and more ending
with 17 or 18 E = dits. WGB list: ``28193.0 VE4ARM/B - Manitoba
Amateur Radio Museum - Austin MB CAN EN09mw - #0 (31 Mar 2025) Note:
VVV de ID + grid + E × 16 - Pwr 5w`` with a bit more Es MUF I should
have had FM DX from that area. QRZ.com: ``VE4ARM Canada flag Canada,
MANITOBA AMATEUR RADIO MUSEUM INC., C/O Johnson, Bruce Frederick, 153
Wharton BLVD, Winnipeg, MB R2Y 0S9, Canada`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHILE. 28506 USB, May 7 at 2208, XQ3WD calling CQDX, working a KD9
in Indiana, etc. Lots of fading, and a non-standard fonetik for his
second letter - sounded like ``Peter``, certainly not Quebec, or even
Queen. Also was not sure whether number 2 or 3. Not in QRZ.com, but
DXheat cluster shows such a call on that frequency later that hour
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 87.9, May 7 at 2017 UT, deadair in $ tereo on caradio in
my neighborhood; not always on, and only sometimes musicking, RF
feeder? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 97.5, May 7 at 1651 UT, tuning caradio for Es gets `new`
fairly strong and steady $ tereo signal here, ``Classic Hits, 97-5,
KZLF``. `1702 ``all-news 97-5 KZLF``, ``tnx for all our freedoms``
plug; 1703 ``SSB`` solo by soprano YL; 1705 jingle. Was expecting
Tulsa but hardly anysigs from others 95.5 & 96.5. WTFDA FM DB shows
KZLF Alva OK, 50/50 kW, 150.0m, ``silent 10/31/24 xmtr damaged by
lightning`` -- well, it`s back! Sounds too much like Enid`s KZLS -
coincidence?
92.9, May 7 at 1653 UT, ``92-9 The Edge``, really K225BN xltr of 92.5
KOMA-HD2, 200 watts H/V at 267.7m HAAT. Nearest 92.9 competitors are
Tulsa, Wichita Falls and Osage City KS = between Emporia & Topeka.
In full bandscan these without $ tereo pilot icon: 89.3 KIEL Loyal;
90.3 KHEV Fairview; 105.1 KOSB Perry. Also 91.7 KOSU with NPR talk
daytime but $ The Spy music alterego nighttime. WTFDA FMDB has no way
of showing stations half $ /half mono but could be in remarx (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PANAMA. ``Hi Glenn! The beacon you heard from Panama on 28282.0 kHz
is actually HP1DCP/B, located in Panama City, not HP1DQP/B. It is
fairly widely heard, especially when conditions favor receptions from
Mexico and South America, like they have recently. The operator does
have a page on QRZ.com, but William Buchanan has yet to hear it, hence
it’s not in his beacon list. Steve Howe, Saint Albans, VT`` - so I
must have miscopied C as Q. QRZ.com: ``HP1DCP Panama flag Panama, RENE
IVAN FONSECA, P.O.BOX 0819-09911, REP. OF PANAMA, Panama`` (Glenn

Wed May 7 at 2159, all four REEs are on, and the SAm one slightly
stronger direct than the NAm one. The other two in Arabic before
joining up for 2200 token English. Preview topix: Festival de Madrid,
cine; and sexual violence against women in Spain`s cinema and
audiovisual industries. 2201.6 news leads with Pope stuff of course;
PM speaks for first time about last week`s blackout and what caused
it; discussion whether Spain should rely more on nuclear energy. At
2219 second discussion that over 50% of Spanish women in AV/cinema
industries have experienced sexual violence = not only rape but
threats, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, May 7 at 2159, VOT not off the air, S9 but JBM?
totally unreadable direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9930, May 7 at 1506, TOMBS on WTWW, VG signal but no spurs
or splatter. George McClintock just informed me that both transmitters
are working, this one on 5920 at night, and the other one on 5085 at
night, altho 9475 in daytime is still off.
9930 at 2216 check May 7, S9+60! direct but no spurs or splatter this
time, TOMBS // not synch with 9980 WWCR. 9475 is still not on.
Likewise at 2347 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1630 kHz, May 7 at 0620, ID in passing as ``970 & 1630``, YL
with news, about equal mix with another. There are only 3 N Americans
on 1630 and this one is certainly KKGM Fort Worth TX, with BIN network
and per NRC AM Log also in group with 970, which is KHVN, address for
both axually in Dallas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Kansas FM stations whilst seeking Es DX: 93.1, May 7 at 2020
UT, ad for People`s Bank & Trust, and for abbyvillerodeo.com. The bank
is in McPherson, NE of Hutchinson, and the rodeo - at first I thought
the were saying radio -- is west of Hutch, so it`s KHMY, My 93-1,
licensed to Pratt SW of Hutch, but operating from Hutch. Abbyville is
too insignificant to appear in my atlas map or index. KHMY is normal
fringer but had some good peaks I hoped would turn out to be Es.
94.3, May 7 at 2021 UT, financial talk with a religious angle, mono so
surely the Bott station, KCVW in Kingman. But not // 800 KQCV OKC.
2024 outro show Faithfi.com, i.e. Faith & Finance; 2026 Bott ID (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9936.0, May 7 at 0607, there it is again like 24h ago,
open carrier at S6/S7 with clix. What is this? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 12153-12196, May 7 at 1431, range of multi-carrier,
multi-tones beating, peaking circa 12171 at S9+5. Would make a huge
collision with WWCR 12160 after 1500 - but at 1502 recheck, WWCR only,
which of course is the OOB intruder. What is this? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. First sporadic E FM DX of season? May 7 circa 1630 UT,
map shows nexus around Memphis with NW/SE and NE/SW paths; tho a
little too close to here and E/W, worth it to tune the caradio for DX.
No IDs, but brief Es-like strong signals appeared and soon faded out:
93.3 at 1650 UT, Jake-FM OKC unusually with CCI
93.5 at 1709 UT, mono talk over KS C&W
94.1 at 1710 UT, talk not // 89.7 so not KTHM Waynoka OK; but poss. 3
other Okies (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 87.7 MHz, May 7 at 2008 UT tune-in caradio in downtown
Enid, fragment of Mexmx and gone. Must have been meteor scatter;
nothing more in next few minutes. Could have been 87.75 (Glenn Hauser,
