** BRAZIL. 11780, June 19 at 0150 into Bonaire, S9+10 in some native
language, translation voiceover Portuguese, more but diffrent voice at
0156, 0159 back to Brasuguese: instead of nominal 0150 English, 0155
Spanish. What is that language? Also noted by John Figliozzi: ``No
English tonight. Sounds like a man speaking in a language native to
the Amazon region. (0150-0157)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2300)
** CANADA. 28168 CW, June 19 at 1551 just before trying for the
Armstrong special from NJ on 42.8 MHz, even 10m is hardly open,
nothing but a JBA beacon finally copied after multiple passes as: EEE
VVV VA3KAH/B. WGB list: ``28168.0 VA3KAH/B - Kah-She-Island Georgian
Bay ON CAN EN95wc - #0 (06 Oct 2024) Note: VVV de VA3KAH + grid + E ×
5 - Ant half wave vertical pwr 38w /ERP 65w`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1650 kHz, June 19 at 0622 UT, Spanish audible underneath
``The Fan`` which is KCNZ in Iowa. Probably KBJD Denver, if not KSVE
El Paso - no overnight tones from that heard in longtime but
supposedly 24h with TUDN, per NRC AM Log (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 42.8 MHz, June 19 at 1556-1607 UT, no trace of a signal from
the publicized Armstrong FM test from Alpine NJ, as in:
https://www.radioworld.com/news-and-business/armstrong-broadcast-returns-to-new-jersey-in-june
Never clarified whether this would be in WB FM, NB FM, or not even
FM!
Tuning direct on the R75, however, without a specific VHF antenna.
Sporadic E might have propagated it afar. At that time I was hearing
only one ham beacon on 10m from Ontario; see Canada. Other reports of
no signal on 42.8:
Patrick Mannion, W1PAC, WOR iog at 1559: ``Listening on a nearby web
SDR, so far nothing heard, not even signs of a warmup.`` Mannion at
1630 UT: ``Just got a carrier as of 12:30pm``
Arthur Pozner: ``Which SDR are you using?`` -- ``A friend's internet
connected one, it was DM'ed to me on IRC. I don't think I'm allowed to
share it.``
At 1617 UT: Mike Schaffer, WTFDA: ``Nothing heard in Easton, PA
(FM20jq). Who is hearing it?`` At 1654: ``Armstrong Tower is 70 miles
east-northeast of my location. Still not hearing it.``
Mike Bugaj, CT: Not hearing it and really wasn't expecting to. 100
miles NE with an APS13 not cut for 40 MHz. Heck I can't even get WNYZ
87.7 unless tropo is up. I would expect this to be a NYC area event.`
