DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS
updated for the two sesquiweeks of confusion due to imposition of
nonsensical DST, will be availablized circa 0500 UT March 8 at:

** CAYMAN ISLANDS. 28466 USB, March 7 at 1535, ZF1A making quick
contest contax. QRZ.com: ``ZF1A Cayman Islands flag Cayman Islands,
CAYMAN AMATEUR RADIO SOCIETY, Savannah, Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands
--- ZF1A is exclusively a contest station and is only licensed to
operate during major contests. If you worked us outside a major
contest - it is likely a busted QSO. Dan Craig/N6MJ, 200 Barcelona
Cir, Fullerton, CA 92835`` ARRL international callsign series shows
ZBA-ZJZ for UKOGBANI, not broken down into individual colonies. I
thought it might be Bermuda until uplooked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760, March 7 at 1530, RHC ID, S9/+10 OK, while // 15140 mod
is buried under windhowl, S9+10/20. 15230 sig also seems RHC only
S4/S6. Nothing else ever listed on 15230. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15140, March 7 at 2007, S9+20/30 of windhowl only, but
pristine deadair on 11880, S9+20 both into Georgia remote. So the
20-21 English deadair will presumably shift to 19-20 from March 8 due
to the imposition of nonsensical DST in most of the USA and Canada,
and in the Running Dog of Yankee Imperialism, Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 15016 USB, March 7 at 0724 a crypto exercise message is
underway, so I switch to // 8992 USB for better reception. Not trying
to copy it, but waiting for an ``ID`` -- which never came past 0729!
Unlike ``normal`` cryptos, just keeps going with letters, occasional
numbers, and at times the same one in a row like SSSSSS, which would
never happen ``normally``. Op got carried away? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2337 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
March 7 at 0930 on WRMI 7570, S9+20/40, NOT 9455 which has been
showing on the WRMI skedgrid for months if not years.
Not confirmed Sat Mar 7 at 1545 the 1530 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
6160, but instead Texas R SW playing Mexmx, VG into UTwente, and 3975
is off. TRSW is not on every week, and the Mar 14 sked shows WOR

SDR.
Confirmed Saturday March 7 at 1700 on WRN via WRMIs: 7730 S3/S5 into
