** CHINA. Survey of CNR1 jammers, some only carriers on known
frequencies vs SOH, Dec 8 at 2318: 9180, 9215, stronger 9230.

At 2325, 9970, 10160; at 2328, 10820, 11070, 11000, 11120, 11170,
stronger 11440 & 11460.

At 2335, 7540 good with flutter, echo; this one vs RFA Tibetan via
Kuwait this hour only, unheard.

9900, Dec 8 at 2324, Firedragon music jamming mixing with something in
Chinese, this one against RTI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5025, Dec 8 at 2309, R. Rebelde modulation during music is
cutting off and on, S9+25/30. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6145, Dec 9 at 0712, new? announcer at RHC concluding,
Charles McKeely(?), then 0713-0722 `DXers Unlimited` Arnie mumbling
something about no sunspots; 0722 opening `Mailbag`. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTEING DIGEST

** CUBA [and non]. 13700, Dec 9 at 1500, RHC much weaker than usual
here, S8-S9, vs much stronger OC on 13740 just before it turns off.
13700 is also too weak to produce any spurs, tsk2. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. 13700 eclipsed by 13710 Sa`udi Qur`aning at S9/+10,
normally much weaker by comparison (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 9105, Dec 9 at 0708, JBA with flutter, presumed Echo
of Hope on this week`s jumparound frequency, nothing on 9100 or 9095.
Aoki of today agrees 9105 at 0600-0200. As of Dec 7 at 1128, Wolfgang
Bueschel remotely had this on 9099.993; the rest unresurveyed yet
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

December 8 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, poor-fair S7-S9.

but fading down/out by 0140.

S8-S9, and this time // 9395 is worse at only S4-S6, lowered MUF

** U S A. 7490+, Sunday Dec 8 at 2314, WBCQ amid `Uncle Bill`s Melting
Pot` seems to be in a comedy routine, so not always music, promoted as
being Hawaiian this week. Poor reception. At 2335 & still 2355 rechex,
I notice that 7490 is in dead air! The 2330-2400 segment on Sundays
has long been an orphan slot, without even an entry on the schedule as
``available time slot``; but usually filled with music from
somesource. Would be nice if UBMP could occupy a full hour.

BTW, while checking UBMP at 2316, RF noise burst from my nearest
streetlight igniting right at local sunset, earliest of the year, but
would be a few minutes later were it not cloudy (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 475 kHz, Dec 9 at 0715 UT, continuous weak CW as I am
dozing off; did not notice any DE definite ID, but could be this as
logged 11 months ago: ``U S A. 475 kHz, Jan 13 at 0701, WA4SZE/BEACON
on CW from Dave Frantz, of WWRB, Manchester TN`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5010-, Dec 8 at 2308, again unexplained LAH on the minus
side of WRMI; see yesterday`s speculation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13624.74 approx., Dec 9 at 1458, 2-way in Spanish
INTRUDERS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 1817 UT December 9
