** BRAZIL. 11780, July 14 at 2203, RNA S9+10/20 direct in presumed
`Voz do Brasil` at this hour; someone had reported it missing
recently. Also UT Tue July 15 at 0155, RNA/RNB in Spanish bit about
the Parque Rodeador SW transmitter site, presumably after English bit.
0159 usual ID and s/off routine, but still on at 0202 with ``Garota de
Ipanema`` and another hit past 0207 until chop in mid-word at 0208*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13780, July 14 at 2214, Spanish historical talk no doubt in
honor of Bastille Day, mentioning Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité --- and
then, RHC ID! A RARE new frequency for them, S9/+10, good modulation
level with only slight distortion; and not // 15230 I had just checked
at 2212, S9 but very suptorted, intonation sounding Spanish instead of
Portuguese. At 2330, 13780 with music is S7/9+10 into Lima SDR. Still
on at 2357 direct, but 15230 off by now.
AFAIK, RHC never on 13780 before and not in current schedules, least
of all its own, which is still imaginary B23:

Axually an accurate current sked would be of-interest, duh. Somethings
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13650, July 14 at 2352, S5/S6 of dead air direct or maybe
JBM, the CRI relay for years of music fill instead of Portuguese.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 4765, July 15 at 0048, no signal from R. Progreso direct, tho
5025 has JBA carrier from severely underpowered Rebelde; and by 0132
still no 4765 into Georgia remote, nor at 0155, 0243. Somethings
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PANAMA. 28282 CW, July 14 at 2204, VVV HP1DCP/B ... COM 73s. Last
heard May 6; still NOT in WGB beacon list, in fact only one HP
somewhere else. This one is in QRZ.com: ``HP1DCP Panama flag Panama,
RENE IVAN FONSECA, P.O.BOX 0819-09911, REP. OF PANAMA, Panama`` [sic:
they sure don`t want to bother with accenting all those á] (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715 // 15500, Mon July 14 at 2200, token English from SNR,
equally S9+20/30 direct on these, also audible on 15520 and JBA? on
15390. Preview topix to be a festival in Córdoba, and killing malaria
parasites but not? mosquitos. News leads with something going on in
Murcia vs North African resident there (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004+, July 14 at 2204, VOT not off the air, S9/+10
JBA direct vs noise level. At 2244 when measured, S9+40/50 into
UTwente, ``always-by-your-side`` promo. 2251 ``with-you-ever-hour``
promo, s/off as if 17620 from 1230, awry in Ankara, 2252 IS almost to
2253*.
Some editors like to delete my non-logs of this as if inconsequential:
but they are significant, and without them one might wonder why other
logs are specified as NOT off the air! We are not simply routinely
logging stuff as supposedly scheduled, but building up evidence of
failures or at least anomalies, the big picture (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 17790, July 15 circa 0000, no signal from WRMI: but this is
a reminder to confirm whether it really be on air until 2400 as in the
current skedgrid, instead of -2100 with R. Africa Network. The
transmitter grid for WRMI-11 on 17790 at 160 degrees (same as 9955
azimuth) now shows RAN until 2130, red System F at 2130-2200, and
green CRR System E at 2200-2400. But the red Sys F program schedule at
2130-2200 shows 15770 only. And there could be even more; NASWA
Flashsheet:
``17790 UNKNOWN. UNID, July 6, 2025, 0119–0133. OM with sermon or
religious message in EE, possibly from the Vatican. I was unable to
find or hear an ID sufficiently well to be positive. SIO 333. Mixed
choir with a hymn after the sermon (Vince Henley, WA)`` Well, today
July 15 at 0125, no signal on 17790 into Lima (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
This report dispatched at 0248 UT July 15
