** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Sept 10 tuning Argentine remote
from 1439, nothing yet. SDR thinx I am in Amarillo TX, IP confusion?
Also Gary Pence in Dallas, someone in Hamburg. LRA36 cuts on air *1454
with sufficient S6/S7 music; 1502 canned standard sign-on with 4
languages, staff list, ``Nacional, la radio publica``. 1503 Esperanza
themesong. 1507 historical bit mentioning Alasca and Groenlandia. 1511
song. 1515 ID ``su compañía``, then ``live`` YL chat. One of them is
out sick. Not sure of program number mentioned but should have been
#20; geo coords; Base founded 17 dic 1952.
Mentions ``viernes, 9 de setiembre``, so the missing Wed 7 Sept
broadcast must have been on Friday instead when I did not check for
it, nor anyone? 1520 multi-platform contact info starting with phone
numbers, too fast and not repeated: give us a break if you want
contacts. 1521 birthday greeting to someone who has completed another
year; 1523 song but chopped off air at 1524* and never comes back! Yet
another transmitter failure, why? And why won`t/don`t they ever turn
it back on? I wonder if it only be sporadic electrical fluid. Yes,
it`s off: always a good idea to recheck the SDR in case it have been
inadvertently knocked off frequency. Remotely possible they tried again circa 1800, as once publicized for
Sats, but not checked until 1922, nothing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 9 circa 2115, no signal direct from R. Cairo;
nor any at 2200 check into UTwente, rather some loud clicking from
something else. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 5995, Sat Sept 10 at 1853 tune-in via Canary SDR, R. Mali,
S7/S9+5, already in weekly English that I can scarcely understand, so
heavy are the accents of the alternating W & M scriptreaders. Storm
crashes from all over Morocco, some blaaps and running water QRM, some
ACI from 5990 unless avoided. Finished 1906, French ID, music (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 10 at 0646, VON is on; almost sounds like
English intonation rather than Hausa, but too sleepy to concentrate.
Might be something to do with EIIR*. 7255-, Sept 10 at 1853, no VON signal into Canary SDR. Not checked
earlier but I suppose no English from 1630 today (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27185 approx., Sept. 10 at 1915 UT, undermodulated music
and ``The Hawk`` ID, on SW caradio in motion in Enid; one of its
memories is programmed for this CB channel. Once again, the pirate
relay of 97.7 KHRK Hennessey -- only 3.9 kW ERP so needs some help?
No, already blasts into nearby Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, Sept 10 circa 1850 UT on caradio a few blox W of
downtown Enid, open carrier vs the two weaker stations in KS and OK:
not unusual to encounter such a mystery, perhaps someone`s RF feeder
in a car left on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 18, KOPX OKC, I`m looking for NEWSY on 62-7, morning
of Sept 10, but it`s ShopLC instead! Whew, lineup has been rearranged
with NEWSY still there but on 62-6. The complete octostation: 62-8, HSN
62-7, ShopLC
62-6, NEWSY
62-5, TruReal
62-4, Grit
62-3, CourTV
62-2, Bounce
62-1, ION
So it seems the secondary ION channel has been eliminated. I was going
to notify RabbitEars about this, but they already have it; maybe it
has been at least a week since I last sought NEWSY. KOPX is fortunately among the OKC stations always available thru
rooftop antenna, but not my rabbitears. NEWSY, at least, is anti-cable
by design. Info:
https://rabbitears.info/market.php?request=station_search&callsign=kopx DA pattern has 8 equally spaced peaks and valleys around 360 degrees:
Max 200 kW, Min 108.63, Avg 140.43; 1532 feet HAAT surely helps. https://rabbitears.info/pattern.php?request=ant_pat&ant_id=25076f916adca429016ae5a4803210e6&rotation=0&erp=200
My STB remembers when it was still on RF 50 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Sept 9 at 2200, REE token English, to NAm VG into
Maryland; Justin Coe previews feature will be his interview with
bluesman Corey Harris, which starts at 2214. He must have a huge
archive of such stuff from his Ruta 61 show. US 61 runs up the western
edge of Mississippi east of the River, into Memphis; thence crosses
over to west of River in Arkansas, all the way thru Missouri, Iowa,
similar to I-55 as far as St. Louis. Crosses River from Dubuque into
Wisconsin at its SW corner but soon back across into Minnesota as far
as Twin Cities. It originally ran thru Duluth almost to the Canadian
border, outmoded by I-35 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.003, Sept 9 at 2200, VOT is on today, VG with only
lite squeal, but I`m mainly listening to Spain. Missed topic of
`Feeling Supreme` but followed at 2242 by `Did You Know That`, about
``Turkish Delight`` which has been around for 1600, or was it 2600
years. ``Turkish delight or lokum is a family of confections based on
a gel of starch and sugar. Premium varieties consist largely of
chopped dates, pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel;
traditional varieties are often flavored with rosewater, mastic gum,
bergamot orange, or lemon. Wikipedia`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: confirmed Friday
September 9 at 1815.3 on IRRS SW, 7290 via BULGARIA, S9/+10 into
UTwente; and // AM Italia, Villa Estense, 1323 AND 918 kHz but not LW
207 kHz. Maybe IRRS noticed my observation that 918 gets less QRM than
1323, so brought it back; but you never know. 918 into nearby Noale
SDR at S9+22, while 1323 is generally below the CCI in German from
Romania, worse than usual. Again, I monitor the whole hour: From 1755, 918 >> 1323, music of unknown origin. 1800 brief ``IRRS SW
signing on`` and `Feature Story News`. As always, 7290 JIP late a bit
before *1801. Guess what the only topic is, also for Spotlite segment
at 1803; 1805 IRRS ID by YL still asserting totally wrong frequency
7125 long gone, plus 918 and recently added 1323; `UN News in Brief`.
1808 raucous music fill of unknown origin; 1813 `UN News in Brief` --
again? Wasn`t paying attn at 1805 whether same topix now. 1815 chop
for a different IRRS plug/ID without frequencies, and WOR 2155
complete to 1844; at 1840 checked UTwente for 14580 = 2 x 7290 but not
audible this time. 1844 bit of music, OM ID with Milan address; 1845 blues? music; 1848
unID DJ introduces an Irish jig, `The Cat`s Miaou`, no program name
either. 7290 cuts off air already at 1855* instead of 1857. Back to
918, I find that still on but dead air, S9+22 of it. Shortly ID for AM
Italia on 207 & 918 & 1323 kHz (kee-lo-hertz) by synth? YL. Never
heard on 207 this hour nor for many weeks but does not mean it`s never
on, tho I don`t see it reported in European MWDX clubs. `She`
concludes with address info@amitalia.it, cute ESL ``Have a nice
listening``; then a timecheck in Italian uncopied, music. Meanwhile on 1323 kHz the music has CCI and rumble; 1859 closing
German announcement from Romania, tone. 918 remains much better as at
1901 they both play the Verdi closing theme of IRRS; yet neither MW
frequency is going off the air now, and the SW is already long gone. Also confirmed Friday September 9 at 2052 the 2030 on AM Italia 1323
at S9+15 and rough; and much better 918 at S9+22, not 207. 1323 also
has ACI from 1314 and less so from 1332. Both 918 & 1323 marred by
storm noise from lightning right over NE Italy & vicinity. 2059 WOR
finished, fragment of `Country Jamboree` opening, nexus.org ID,
`Feature Story News`; 2108 song. Should anyone run across WOR on WRMI at a secret/unlisted time, such
as Friday evening, do let us know: this has happened in the past. Also confirmed UT Saturday September 10 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130 minus 24/27 Hz, S6/S8 into Maryland remote. And: ``USA WBCQ-3 Radio Angela relay GH's World of Radio №2155 on 5130 kHz

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat Sept 12 at 0000, WBCQ stream with `AAAWWW`
- a new one but an immediate turn-off as he starts by insulting us by
equivalenting Communists = Socialists = Democrats = Biden, not
necessarily in that order. Back toward the end of show he`s fishing
around for the new issue of Free Radio News -- he means Weekly, not
realizing that of the three rotating editors, only Harold gets it out
ASAP after the UT Sat 0000 deadline; Larry is next; but it`s the
following morning before Dave does it, including this week. BTW, `The Score` this week about movies that bombed despite their
great music, includes variations on William Tell about :25 minutes
