** CUBA. 15370, March 4 at 2210, RHC is AWOL but on 15370.0 at 2329
check, S9+20/30 but overmodulated, distorted while // 13740 is good.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11850, March 4 at 2215, RHC Spanish is S9+10 but suptorted;
not English like on 11880. As always accompanied by much weaker
parasitic carrier on 11840, and probably one to match on 11860 vs
OCB/jamming. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA. After last night`s anomalies from RRI in the 01-03 period,
I check again March 5 at 0058: 6130 & 7325 with RRI IS, 0100 opening
English with detailed satellite info and other platforms but NO
mention of SW frequencies! Meanwhile, 7410 and 5910 are off.
At 0200 I check all four via UTwente SDR: French is starting on 7410
and 6130; 5910 and 7325 are off. So the same as before; Romanian
missing, and swap 7 MHz frequencies by 0200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Mar 4 at 2328, caught tail of REE English back on
the air today as Alison is axually speaking news about Snowden, Boris
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960, March 4 at 2329, VOT is on at S9+10 but JBM, no good
English. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2023 monitoring: confirmed the Wed 2100 on
WRMI 7780 at 2126 check March 4, JBA direct; fair via UTwente SDR.
Also confirmed Wed Mar 4 starting as usual at 2200:20 on WBCQ,
7490.2v, fair.
Also confirmed UT Thu March 5 at 0100, JBA on WRMI 7780, but VG via
UTwente SDR.
WOR 2024 should be ready by early UT March 6 for first NAm SWBC Friday
at 2300 on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5830, March 5 at 0250, WTWW-1 is back on with SFAW from
tornado-ravaged Lebanon TN, but 5085 WTWW-2 is still off. 5830 had
been underpowered but now is quite strong. The WTWW-1 webcast is
running too, `Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting` with a caller from
Wisconsin at 0255; but not WTWW-2 stream (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5915, March 5 at 0057-0101+, carrier with heavy splash
from 5920 WHRI. By 0125 same talk is JBA. Checking because JRX in
Brasil reported ZAMBIA here around 0100 last night in vernacular. ZNBC
has run 24 hours before and might again, perhaps due to electric
``load shedding`` meaning no power during day or prime time but
available when demand is much lower overnight.
However, one other station is listed active before and after these
hours, MYANMAR, where it`s just after sunrise. I try the two KiwiSDRs
in RSA and one of them is getting it no better than I am, nor does
UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
