** CUBA. 11880, Dec 2 at 2129, RHC IS and Portuguese ID, program, VG
direct. WRTH *2025* showed PP at 2130-2200 on 15140 for *North*
America; only other on at 2300-2400 on 15230 for S America, not found
lately. Was the 23 including a replay of the previous half-hour? By
2259 today, 11880 is off; 11760 windhowl at S9+20 and still no mod at
2320. However, S9+20 dead air on 13650 at 2259 becomes CRI IS at 2300,
Chinese ID and s/on in ``Portuguese`` to be music fill only. Fairly
good modulation level but somewhat distorted, tsk2. SAWA RHC &

** FRANCE. Re my missing checking 21660 Dec 1 & 2, From Terry Krueger,
Dec 2: ``Glenn, MiniTransAt: They were on 1500-1515 at the usual
21660, local level here in NW Florida. If I copied the heavily
accented lady, it was scheduled to be the last transmission as the
remaining boat was approaching Guadeloupe later in the day. Worth
checking again tomorrow. Did it take Columbus, Ponce de Leon, Narvaez
et al this long to cross the Atlantic?``.
21660, Dec 3 at 1500 past 1503, no signal from MiniTransAt, so
apparently finished, and on same rx I keep checking 5140 for OK
security net, q.v., and hear some of that. There is a JBA carrier on
21690, from France, so prop is sufficient despite K-index of 4.67. But
by next check of 21660 at 1510, it`s *on with music, S4/S6, and by
nextnext check at 1515 it`s off* already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** JAPAN. 28420 USB, Dec 2 at 2314, JA1NFM, Hiro making a contact.
QRZ.com: ``JA1NFM Japan flag Japan, Hiroshi "Hiro" Takahashi, 1150-81
Shikawatashi, Yotsukaido Chiba 2840003, Japan`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11500-11550, Dec 3 at 1547, no signals from Dengê
Gel nor Turkish jammer, so it`s really all over per this:
``I have just found this news: `Radyoya Dengê Gel, which for years was
the voice of the Kurdish people from the mountains to the prisons, has
ended its 23-year broadcasting life` [...] One of the coordinators of
Radyoya Dengê Gel, Mustafa Rêzan, stated that the first radio
broadcasting in Kurdish media began in October 1992 with Dengê
Kurdistana Serbixwe and continued in 1995 with Dengê Mezopotamya.
[...] this journey continued in 2012 under the name Dengê Kurdistan.
[...] Dengê Kurdistan continued steadfastly until 2016, after which it
went on under the name Dengê Welat, and from 2023 onward under the
name Dengê Gel...`

** MALI [and non]. 13685, Dec 3 at 1545, S4/S6 discussion in English
about China, so CRI Bamako relay to EAfrica as sked; with 13830,
Vatican listed in Amharic, the only significant overseasigs on band,
beyond the USAs blasting on 13570, 13820, 13845 (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** NEW ZEALAND. 28228 CW, Dec 2 at 2304, EEEEEEE DE ZL3TEN, beacon
without a /B, fadey. Not in QRZ.com but WGB list: ``28228.0 ZL3TEN -

** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Dec 3 at 0716 UT, no signal from SW, NDB at
StillWater, nor recently, but now I`m sure it must be off, since much
furthers are now audible vs noise level, such as 245 FS Sioux FallS
SD, and 251 AM AMarillo TX. More at USA (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 5140 USB, Wed Dec 3 at 1503, WNPV700 in Durant
checking in to a net. Strongest signal heard of group, and the NCS is
much weaker almost JBA; WPFY721, previously located as in Seminole. I
started monitoring about 1459, but on a single receiver switching back
and forth with 21660 FRANCE, q.v. Also possible alt 7477 USB, but
which after 1500 was hit by splat from 7490 WWCR. Rollcall with a
number of callsigns in same format, 4 letters fonetikaly and three
numbers so the letters are more likely to be accurate than the
numbers. But replies mostly uncopied, including: WNUW215?, KNBR72#?
Pontotoc County, WN##212, WNBM839 Stillwater, and definitely WNBE830
in Jefferson City MO, i.e. the net to follow this one.
At 1508 mention Oklahoma Operational Security Net, I think, and refers
to next week, hoping for more checkins than this week, with no-shows.
Just before 1509, ``WPFY721, clear`` but then another contact from
Missouri. Recheck at 1530, algo JBA, presumed Missouri net but likely
to be even less audible than the OK, I don`t attempt to monitor any
further. See my previous log/reports about this Oct 1 at:

** OKLAHOMA. 93.1, Re the dead air in $ tereo, it`s gone later Dec 2
circa 2130 UT, which is neither here nor there. Meanwhile my inquiry

bounced: ``Sorry, we were unable to deliver your message to the
following address. <dwilliamson@onalot.com>: Unable to deliver message
after multiple retries, giving up`` Maybe changed to offalot?! The DA

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 2 at 2256-2300+ no signal direct from VOT; at
2257 also music on 9610 but not the TRT IS. At 2335 into UTwente, weak
Chinese on 5960.000+, and something else not VOT on 9610, which could
be an accidentalternate past sked -2230*. Something`s always erroneous
