** BELGIUM. 14266-USB, Jan 30 at 1615, OQ4U making quick pro-forma
contacts with US stations, some kind of contest, giving signal reports
as ``S9-315-VB``, consecutively increasing to 316, etc. Call fonetix
always clear as ``Ocean Quebec Four Uniform`` -- doesn`t he know that
O = Oscar in this paramilitary system? So many hams mix their fonetix,
out of ignorance, or just to be distinctive? QRZ.com:

``OQ4U Belgium flag Belgium, MARC MICHIELS, HALENSEBAAN 137,
TIELT-WINGE 3390, Belgium`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Jan 30 at 0637, RHC in English, S9/+10, reactivated!
This frequency had been off for months despite originally scheduled
before 0500 in Spanish, afterwards in English. Is it back to stay?
Also // 6000 & 6100 all with adequate modulation and 9700
undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13636 & 13765, Jan 30 at 1527, RHC extremely distorted FMish
spurblobs with F# tone approx. plus/minus 64-65 kHz from fundamental
13700-AM; also second-order traces about 13572, 13828, vs Martí 13820.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Jan 30 at 1530, this RHC is S9+20 but modulation
severely suptorted = suppressed & distorted; other frequencies sound
OK, 13700, 11760, 9650. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. About corporate complicity in Uighur slave labor,
as heard on NPR Weekend Edition Saturday Jan 30 via KOSU:

http://www-cf.npr.org/2021/01/30/962358073/amelia-pangs-book-explores-the-human-cost-of-our-cheap-goods
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 4060-USB, John Carver replies to my pirate log:

``Bread and Puppet Radio --- Glenn, just finished reading your most
recent log report. It might not be anything but I've always been
fascinated by the sixties communes. Have three or four dozen books on
the subject. About a year ago I read an overview of communes around
Taos, New Mexico and right after that about communes in Vermont. I
think it was in the New Mexico book but there was a piece about some
crazy old fart who had been in the theater for most of his life. He
built life sized puppets and started a commune to train people to
build puppets and put on shows with them. His real passion though was
baking bread and would make hundreds of loaves of bread at the same
time. He'd sell it door to door, give it to people on street corners
and when he had enough people to put on the puppet shows he'd give a
loaf of bread to everyone in the audience. It was called the Bread and
Puppet Theater. Perhaps Zekey has a thing about communes also. I'd
have to dig out the books and look it up but I think the book was
called Memoirs of a Taos Hippie or some such. At any rate that was the
first thing that popped into my head when I read Bread and Puppet
Radio. A hell of a coincidence. John`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. Re 6935-USB, my R. Nova eQSL and SSTV,
https://www.w4uvh.net/RN-QSL34.jpg
``but what is it?`` Jonathan Rice replies:

https://www.tripadvisor.com/LocationPhotoDirectLink-g186245-d7278109-i337938524-Tintagel_King_Arthur_Walk_South_West_Coast_Path-Tintagel_Cornwall_Englan.html

``Photo: La statua in ferro di Re Artù --- Bossiney Road, Tintagel PL34
0AJ, England. Description: A 3.6 mile walk on part of the South West
Coast Path around Tintagel`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7265-LSB, Sat Jan 30 at 1603, WB5ALM, as NCS of Salvation
Army net reading boilerplate, reference website SATERN.org; says also
liaison with another SA net on 14265 daily except Sundays at 16 (15?)
UT. Also have a digital mode net on 14065. SA is currently still
working on the Alabama tornado aftermath. 1605 opening for check-ins,
but no replies! Some may have checked in earlier, then starts calling
them. QRZ.com shows this is a club station:

``WB5ALM USA flag USA, WILLIAM H FEIST III, SATERN ALM Division, PO
BOX 4857, Jackson, MS 39296 USA`` While Feist`s own call is WB8BZH.

But what does ALM stand for? First, what does SATERN mean? ``Salvation
Army Team Emergency Radio Network``. Nothing about ALM on the About
page. Maybe just refers to the word ``alms`` as in being helpful?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Wisconsin for a generous check on a US bank to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702

One may also contribute via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com
not necessarily in US funds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9333.0, Jan 30 at 1601, open carrier, and *no* signal on
9330 from WBCQ SuperStation. When 9330 is operating, have never heard
9333 carrier/het on at same time, so suspect same defective
transmitter. This was direct; and again at 1742 recheck via KB0FX
remote in MO, still thus at S5-S6, with carrier offset varying minus
8.3 to 9.0 Hz. Unlikely the Cuban spy which is also on 9330 but only
after 0700. I`ve heard 9333 previously under same circumstances, July
17 and June 24, 2020.

Last night on 6160v AAAWWW, John Carver reports: ``Phone call at 0134
from a gentleman who informed them that he thought the superstation
was down again. Allan explained that they may have turned the antenna
in another direction. Jason sent them a message stating that the
superstation was indeed down due to another leak in the cooling
system.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7778 & 7782, Jan 30 at 1605, carriers flanking 7780 WRMI;
axually, 7780 is transmitting 2 kHz DSB tone, why? Trace of mod on
center frequency, TOMBS as Sabbathly modulating properly on // 7570,
7730; 9395, 9455, 9955; 5800-carrier, 5850, 5950; while 15770 remains
with SMTV and 21525 JBA carrier presumed still R. Africa, which is not
in pan-America since Pangaea (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1914 UT January 30
