Glenn Hauser logs January 11-12, 2026

** BRAZIL. 6180, Mon Jan 12 at 0753, tokEnglish from RNA underway
about a singer from Belém do Pará. 0754 switch to Spanish with heavy
Brasilian accent, singer named Pinduca? S9+20/30 here, only S9 on
11780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, Jan 12 at 0534, S7/9+10 of dead air direct, no doubt
RHC where something`s always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Jan 12 at 1955, RHC Kriyol is JBA under louder
windhowl on S9 signal direct, but clear on // 11760 also S9. Both
abruptly stop modulating at 1956 before the program really closes.
Then into Georgia SDR from 1959, 15140 is S9+25 with windhowl only,
11760, S9+5/20 dead and clear past 2004, and NO ENGLISH as supposedly
scheduled from 2000. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The same thing
happens repeatedly as if on an automatic timer (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO. 940, Jan 12 at 0715, wild ``La Q`` IDs a few times, ``La
Cuuuuuuuuu!``, finally as plain XEQ. It`s 30/30 kW in CDMX. Not always
dominant like now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960.000, Jan 11 at 2349, only Chinese into UTwente,
S7/S9. Couldn`t be VOT on so accurate a frequency. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler. Nor on accidentalternate 9610. Nor at a cursory
check earlier in hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365 MCW kHz, Jan 12 at 0727 UT, AA, 100-watt NDB at `Kenie`
Fargo ND, site really across in MN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2329 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
January 11 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.993, S9+12 into
nearby Noale SDR. No signals on 918 nor 207 kHz possibilities.

Also confirmed Sunday January 11 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

Also confirmed Sunday January 11 at 2230 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975, JBA S5/7 noisy into NW Ireland SDR after no signals into UTwente
or Bedford.

Also confirmed Sunday January 11 at 2337 the 2330 on WRMI 9455,
S9+15/22 into N9AZZ IL remote.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 12 at 0000 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/12
into N9AZZ IL remote.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 12 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into
N9AZZ IL remote which is miscalibrated. WRMI frequencies are always
almost spot-on but it shows -52 Hz. On same SDR I check WWV: 5000
shows minus 33.5, and 10000 shows -67. So an error of -52 is just
about right, slightly above halfway between those WWVs.

Confirmed UT Monday January 12 starting early 0358 on Area 51 via WBCQ
5130 -89 Hz = 5129.911, S7/S9 into Maryland remote, after ``WDCD``
program IDs over and over. ``W.D.C.D. Radio - a wonton display
of control and disruption``. But WBCQ *must* sign-off 5130 at 0400
sharp no matter what, so I am chopped off, but continue on webcast.

** U S A. At 0305 UT Jan 12, I notice the lowest WRMI frequencies are
missing, no signals into W8BUG Knoxville remote on 5050, 5800, 5850,
5950. I was wanting to hear `Encore` on 5950. Propagation somewhat
degraded but still well audible on highest channels 9395, 9455, 9955.
At 0346 direct, the normally strongest, 5850 is definitely off, JBA
carrier on 7730 but nothing on 7570, 7780. Something`s odd at Okee
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Jan 12 at 0535, S7/S8 dead air, presumably WRNO; I did
notice it in Hindi earlier after 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1340 kHz, re Spanish religious unID, Greg Hardison replies:
``Glenn: -- "UNIDENTIFIED. 1340 kHz, Jan 11 at 0335 UT, ``Holy3`` in
Spanish..." I could be talked into placing a Wild Card bet on KCCE,
San Angelo, "Red de Radio Amistad", per MW List. Just sayin'. 73z de
the other G H``. Nothing about Spanish in NRC AM Log, just REL. But
checking radio-locator link to stream at 1615 UT Jan 12, ``Aleluyas``
and preaching in Spanish. That certainly fits. WTFDA FM DB for the FM
it relays, KSAO 93.9 is likewise clueless about it really being in
Spanish! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re 1480 unID, R. Vida: ``A Facebook video posted yesterday
led me to the following web site for Radio Vida 1480 AM Houston.
Unlike various other Radio Vida sites, it appears to be current:
https://www.arca7.com/radio-vida-1480-am/
73 Tim Hall`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 711 kHz, Jan 12 at 0542, het upon 710 KGNC/KCMO. Could
be one of those Cuban Rebelde variants, or 300 kW ``MOROCCO`` from
Western Sahara, a TA which has a better chance of propagating than
anything else. No JBA carrier on 1141 now from Cuba, nor recently
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1020 kHz, Jan 12 at 0709 UT, some Spanish praising,
``alabad`` audible vs KOKP & KDKA normally dominant, probably KCKN, R.
Visión Cristiana, Roswell NM; NRC DX News reported Dec 30: ``KCKN NM
Roswell – Granted STA extension, U4 30000/50000, night pattern 24
hours`` - it`s almost same as day pattern, but major lobes to NW and
South, pulled in to NE but not a notch:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KCKN&service=AM&h=N
There are three other USSS but not REL: KTNQ Los Ángeles, KMMQ
Plattsmouth NE, both with 50 kW transmitters, and KDYK Union Gap WA
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4453.80, Jan 12 at 0743 UT during routine bandscan at
this spot, a CODAR ID fires, twice, but Morse code too fast for me to
copy; starts with WR-----. Probably audible over entire bandwidth of
this CODAR but no time to explore! These occur thrice per hour 20
minutes apart, so in this case at :43, :03 and :23.

EiBi lists only 4 CODARS:
4540 0000-2400 USA WRPW597 CODAR (IDs x3) Car sm
4750 0000-2400 USA WRPW597 CODAR (IDs x3) Car sm

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
