** BRAZIL. 9671.4 & 9657.7 approx., April 8 at 0548, RVM again tonight
putting out lots of spurious, peaking intermittently around here from
fundamental 9664.52, during gospel huxter preaching. Especially on the
plus side there is plenty of garbage in between. Displacements are
plus 6.88 and minus 6.82 kHz, averaging 6.85 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11850, April 7 at 2125, RHC Spanish surprises us on another
new frequency, revolutionary music // 11760. Apparently ex-11840 which
transmitter was always flanked by weak but readable spurs on 11830 &
11850, but this is no spur nor are there any audible 10 kHz above and
below it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6165, April 8 at 0624, RHC English is S9+20 of dead air here;
6100 S9+40 with mailbag, good modulation, as is 6060 only S9+20; 6000
also S9+20 but with some distortion. 5040 is off. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13740, April 8 at 1328, RHC here for second day ex-13780, and
off by 1400, so apparently deliberate; why? HFCC as of April 5 shows
no collision on 13780; Saudi adjacent 13775 & 13785 but not
significant; while 13740 already has Iran and Issoudun covering the
entire presumed RHC span 11-14 UT; altho neither noted here before RHC
glommed. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6000, April 8 at 1334, surprise, RHC is back here ex-6150 for
morning 49m broadcast, S7-S9 but just barely modulated. These are
happening a week after A-19 began for participating stations; what
next from Arnie? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1975 monitoring: while I was busy finishing
1976, Mark Coady, Ontario was hearing another new airing: ``7780, USA
WRMI at 0130 with Glenn Hauser's âWorld of Radioâ - Good Apr 6 [UT
Sat] â WRMI is finally showing âWorld of Radioâ at this hour instead
of IBC Radio on their schedule spreadsheet``
WORLD OF RADIO 1976 monitoring: confirmed Sunday April 7 at 2130 on
WRMI 7780, poor S6-S8.
Also confirmed UT Monday April 8 at 0130 on WRMI 9395 only, S9+10/20
Also confirmed UT Monday April 8 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, fair
Also confirmed UT Monday April 8 at 0300 on Area 51 webcast; and via
WBCQ 5130.42 at 0327 check, S9 vs high noise level
Also confirmed UT Monday April 8 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 fading to
S6. Often 9955 is JBA carrier by now. Still preceded by ``Hallelujah``
song filler which I am forced to interrupt; sorry! Next:

** U S A. 7490+, UT Monday April 8 at 0000, WBCQ starts playing
`Encore`, the new weekly classical music hour; just after I dispatch a
reminder to the WOR iog. At first I am listening on webcast for
convenience; but less than 2 minutes later, WBCQ switches to sign-off
announcement! (with classical music, anyway), and then to Town Hall
far-right network feed with commercials, and 0006 starting ``Common
Sense Show``. I confirm the same is happening on 7490, which has not
signed off.
Not checked again until 0015, now when `Encore` is back, with Brice
introducing only the second item on this week`s playlist,
https://www.tumbril.co.uk/playlists --- the Shostakovich, so may have
restarted from the beginning in the meantime. I notified the WOR iog
immediately of the problem and Brice also contacted WBCQ. I continue
to listen, after 0040 only to SW, which is S9+20 but not enough to
overcome some lightning crashes (from central TX?). Despite this, I
think I prefer hearing it on SW, which is shall we say, more
``dynamic`` than a webcast. A nice mixture of war horses and less
familiar contemporary music. Keeps playing past 0100 when the hour
should have finished, to 0113 when WBCQ makes an abrupt change to rock
music. Brice Avery says, ``I am listening on SDR in various parts of
the US and the quality is excellent`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 5800, April 8 at 0039, no signal from WRMI; checked after
John Figliozzi, Sarasota, reported: ``5800nf - USA - WRMI, Okeechobee
FL @0000 w/Xmas mx & EE ann. ID on hr. //5950. SINPO - 35433. (4/8/19
Figliozzi, FL) John Figliozzi Sarasota FL Lowe HF-150 / BoniWhip
antenna``. So WRMI must have briefly powered up on 5800. `Countdown 2
Xmas` is on 5950 // 9395 already this hour even in April. WRMI skeds
have been revised dated April 7, but still don`t show 5800, and still
contain outdated System D material including some non-existent WOR
times (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9475, April 8 at 0532, JBA talk, got to be WTWW-1 still on
day frequency since SFAW 5830 night frequency is AWOL. Ted does it
again! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15102-USB, April 8 at 1405, very poor 2-way INTRUDERS,
sounds like Brazilians; unstable with pitch varying by modulation
level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
This report dispatched at 1756 UT April 8
