Hauser
** CANADA. Bedtime beacon bandscan concentrating on less- or
never-heard ones, Feb 13 at 0711-0719 UT finds these from four
provinces:

392-MCW kHz, dash and ML, 500 watts from La Malbaie - Charlevoix QC

385-MCW kHz, dash and QV, 100 watts from Yorkton, Saskatchewan

355-MCW kHz, dash and YWP, 200 watts from Webequie, Ontario. Where`s
that, and how is it pronounced? http://www.webequie.ca/

``Webequie is a growing Ojibway community located on the northern
peninsula of Eastwood Island on Winisk Lake, 540 km north of the city
of Thunder Bay. The 850+ community members originate from all over
Northwestern Ontario, and enjoy a life that embraces traditional
cultural practices. Surrounded by Winisk River Provincial Park,
Webequie provides tourists a pristine natural landscape with some of
the best fishing and hunting in Northern Ontario``

353-MCW kHz, dash and PG, 25 watts from Portage-la-Prairie, Manitoba;
mixing with IN and LI, the confusing MN/AR overlapping pair

340-MCW kHz, dash and YY, 500 watts from Mont-Joli, Quebec
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, Feb 13 at 0646, RHC still in Spanish instead of
English, and suptorted altho S9+30; also with a big hum. Wiggle that
patchcord. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 7405, Feb 13 at 0641, Cuban wall-of-noise and pulse
jamming altho not very strong, IIRC a frequency abandoned years ago by
OCB. Also jamming against nothing on 7335, where RM is never currently
scheduled; and Radio Martí over jamming on 7435 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13700, Feb 13 at 1538, NO spurs today --- how is it that
other days they are all over the band from same frequency? But 13740
is still on with dead air, so something`s still wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15369.23, Feb 13 at 2150, for third day, this RHC way
off-frequency at the same offset, S9+10/20 but suptorted in
Brazuguese. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Feb 14 at 0114, RHC is S5-S7 and JBM, also with a JBA
spur carrier on 11840; but carrier on 11860 bears non-// music, see
UNIDENTIFIED. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185.716v, Feb 14 at 0105, XEPPM is still way off-frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU [and non]. 5980, Feb 13 at 2329, Cuban noise jamming is
running, altho could not detect it for a day or two; JB allowing the
Radio Chaski carrier to be heard, until autocutoff at 2352:50.5*. Last
check was Feb 8 until 2352:59.5*, 9 seconds later, 5 days ago,
averaging 1.8 earlier each night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 13 at 2353, VOT English is not only on today,
but still on running much later into the hour than usual, with
headlines, only at 2354 sign-off claiming this has been the 1330-1430
broadcast on 12035! Well, maybe it was as recorded without bothering
to update any `news` as supposedly done thru the 2130 show. 2354.6
starts playing IS but I don`t stay with to tell if German succeed.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler and/or Ankara (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 2097.3-CW, Feb 13 at 0651 UT, single-letter beacon A is
absent again. Last few nights had tuned across and heard it when I
paused for at least 10 seconds, without bothering to relog (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2020 monitoring: confirmed UT
Thursday February 13 after 0100 on WRMI 7780, JBA here, but F-G via

** U S A. 5950, Feb 13 at 2329, this WRMI is finally back on with
usual weakish signal, TOMBS // much stronger 7570 & 7730. It had been
off due to damage since Feb 8 and still off early UT Feb 13, which is
what I based my WOR 2021 comment upon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11860, Feb 13 at 0113, music JBM at S5-S7, and not //
RHC 11850 which puts out spurs on 11840 & 11860. Could it be Saudi`s
Republic of Yemen Radio which I have not heard clearly in over a year?
Thanks to the Cuban radio war in the daytime. Aoki says Yemenish does
not start until *0200; EiBi *0300. Anything else? CRI Nepali service
not until *0130. Or could it really start at 0115, due to Nepal`s
wacko +5:45 timezone? BTW I can`t help but wonder if timezone
confusion has led to any Everest fatalities among all the visiting
foreigners (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Feb 14 at
0212-0216: 531, 549, 558, 567, 576, 621, 711(2), 774(2), 837, 855,
891=strongest, 909, 936(2), 1053, 1089, 1215, 1305 kHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1477+ & 1503-, Feb 14 at 0118, no sign of the FMish
spurblobs presumed to emanate from some defective 1490 kHz
graveyarder. Meanwhile, a resounding lack of interest, no replies
found to my previous reports of these posted ASAP to MW groups,
requesting other DXers try to get a DF fix on them. Should they recur
I shall certainly report them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0421 UT February 14
