** CUBA. 5025, Jan 25 at 0011, S9+25/35 of dead air in Spanish direct
from R. Rebelde, where something`s always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 11760, Jan 25 at 0729 UT, S6/S8 of deadair,
obviously RHC failed to turn off hours ago, the SSOB except for 11780
RBA Brasil already on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 9700, Jan 25 at 1531, song in English, S7/S8 direct.
Aoki & EiBi have nothing until 1651 for RNZP, but HFCC shows 9700
*available* for that anytime between 0900 and 1800. Own Howtolisten
page claims 9700 on air ONLY on Saturdays in AM at 1651-1858, but this
is Sunday, axually local Monday already; and 7390 supposedly daily
1259-1650 which I did not think to check at the time. Another failure
to follow own published sked; something`s wrecked at Rangitaiki (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1040 kHz, re hearing a very weak C2CAM here
instead of normal WHO bigsig, I recall that when near the 960 KGWA
antennas in NW Enid years ago, I detected a spur? from KGWA on 1040;
never confirmed at home several miles away, but a possible explanation
rather than attenuated WHO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 5140 USB, Jan 25 at 0010, no activity on Emergency
Operations net frequency, but news reports that EOCs are monitoring
the situation of Winter Storm Fern -- how cute, tnx Weather Channel,
with frigid temps, heavy ice and snow -- so far in Enid, only snow,
temps in the plus single digits F. Also no activity at several random
chex of 5140 next few hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9660.003, Sun Jan 25 at 1743, VOT S9+15/20 into UTwente, as
`Letterbox` starts, Cemre speaking slowly, previewing mail from Japan,
China, India, UK, Malaysia. There is some ACI splat, but next signal
on 9655 is only open carrier: nothing in EiBi, Aoki or HFCC. 1) Alan
Roe, Teddington UK, postcard of Ted., Middlesex, lovely handwriting.
2) Mr Miyaki, Hiroshima, Japan, where it`s cold, sent map and postcard. 3) Mr Mei Lin?, Sichuan prov., China, listened via UTwente,
Nov, Dec. 4) ?? ??, Spain, two reports from May & Nov 2025, beautiful
stamps. 5) ?? ??, Fukuoka pref, Japan, NY card. 6) Mr Annan?, an SWL
club in Chennai, India, 2026 colorful calendar. Has 347 members since
1985. Listened via Indian Harbor Beach, Florida SDR. 7) Mr Peter Ng,
Johore Bahru, Malaysia. 8) final: Miss Leila? Bell, UK, listened via
UTwente, also to Voice of Korea - north. 1801 ending, 1802 theme
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 359 MCW kHz, Jan 25 at 0719 UT, GGF, NDB at Grant NE, only
audible with above normal condx/below ``normal`` noise level.
407 MCW kHz, Jan 25 at 0726 UT, NDB OOC is JBA mixing/alternating with
regular HRU in Herington KS. Only the double-O in the clear, but
surely OOC as listed 25 watts `Campi`, Natchitoches LA. It would take
quite a while for them to precess enough not to overlap each other as
periods are almost the same per RNA list: OOC 7.794 seconds, HRU 7.890
sex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 28234.5 CW, OOFSOB, Jan 25 at 1535, DE WS2K/B - WGB list:
``28234.5 WS2K/B - Perkasie PA USA FN20jj - #0/1 (23 Jan 2026) Note:
ID + grid - Ex 28288`` QRZ.com: ``WS2K USA flag USA, JOSEPH M FLASKA,

continue operation of my coordinated 10m CW beacon. It is on the air
continuously. Spots are greatly appreciated. WS2K/B 28.234.5 MHz
Power: 10w`` - Perkasie is in east central PA between Allentown and
Philly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [non]. 9310, Sun Jan 25 at 1530, no signal from V of tRump
via Philippines - because it`s M-F only. WTF,K? I omitted the
frequency for this on WOR 2331 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2331 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
January 24 at 2030 on WRN via WRMI 9395, S9+25/35 into west TN SDR.

2030, no signal into UTwente nor Bedford UK, but JBA into Carlow,
Ireland, with rock music, SW Radio announcements, rather than WOR
which is still on their schedule for this date; have enquired.
Maybe confirmed on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, the 2030v Saturday January 24
at 2043, JBA into N9AZZ IL remote vs HNL, seems like my intonation.
Nearerby remotes even worse.
Confirmed Saturday January 24 at 2100 on WRMI 9395, S9+35/40 into
Georgia SDR, an immediate replay after the 2030 emission.
Also confirmed Saturday January 24 after 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

S8/S9 direct and // 17790 S7/S8 direct.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 25 from 0403 the 0415v on WA0RCR,
1860 AM, MO, S9+15 into KM4RT west TN SDR, early for a change as
expected since preceding ARRL News was on well before 0400.
Also confirmed UT Sunday January 25 at 0730 on WRN via WRMI 7780,
S6/S8 while best frequency 5850 is OFF! 7730 with JBA carrier, and
tonight 5950 is also off unlike last night. Did not note what was
audible on 7570.
Not confirmed Sun Jan 25 before 1100 the 1030 on IRRS SW Romania,
9510, as I happen to awaken about 1055 and not surprisingly, no signal
direct.

** U S A. 7505, Jan 25 at 0737, S9+20 undermodulated English,
presumably WRNO as sometimes extended (Glenn Hauser, oK, WOR)
** U S A. 780 kHz, Sun Jan 25 at 0740 UT, WBBM ``105.9`` zips right
past `StarDate` with otherstuff, seems to be a regular Sunday defect.
Timechex following are wrong, like ``45 past the hour`` at 0743 -
really an edited? replay of several hours earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 1120 kHz, Sun Jan 25 at 0605 UT, deadair from KMOX until
0606 start `Our American Story` - or did I mean 0705 UT? Yet per sked
https://www.audacy.com/stations/kmox/shows/show-schedule
OAS is at ``3am`` presumably meaning local CST = 09 UT! Or does Audacy
promote eastern-zone primacy no matter what? We in the Central zone
are rather tired of having to subtract one hour from TV/radio network
program times treating ET as if nothing/nowhere else matter (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
