** EGYPT [non]. 9439.995, Sept 12 at 2203, NO signal from R. Cairo in
English into UTwente, just that heavy loud clicking which must be
something else. 9900v, which sometimes tries to carry Portuguese
service, is also AWOL at 2255 check into UTwente, rather just Chinese.
Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Sept 12 at 2150 UT, local Enid CB pirate is
still relaying // KXLS 95.7, steady S9+22 at JBM level; why? No skip
now or lately, but it ties up the channel (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Sept 12 at 2200, token M/W/F English from REE, VG
into Maryland SDR, no need to check three others but you never know
whether some will be missing or defective. I`m mainly audioviewing BBC
News, see UK [non], but at 2210 check the feature is about a flamenco
artist, Rosalía, which seems vaguely familiar: there are a lot of
reruns. But by 0028 check Sept 13, NO signal on 17855 into same;
supposed to run until 0200* Tu-Sa. 11940 for S America is still VG
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830.003, Sept 12 at 2203, VOT English is on today, VG
S9+30/45 into UTwente, but I`m mainly audioviewing BBC news on TV: see
UK [non]. Back here at 2228, `Feeling Supreme` is underway, natural
remedies for head lice, but I`ve missed the first nine of twelve; the
tenth is: garlic. Not a problem here, but attn all SWLs with head
lice: you`ve got to listen to VOT! This will probably repeat
eventually.
After some musix, 2245-2249 another feature, `DYKT`, about a town on
the Aegean with ``the most beautiful beach in the world``. She of the
heavy accent mentions the name several times but never can I
understand it, so does she ever spell it? Of course not! Something`s
always awry at Ankara. Surely one could find on the web a roster of
the thousands of beautiful beaches in the world with this atop it, #1,
right?
There has been some fading in the modulation, rather than signal level
or propagation, it seems, but might be SDR reception artifact rather
than transmission problem. Also considerable splatter from something
on 9820 unless narrowed. Standard sign off and cut 2254* before any IS
heard, let alone extra German (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** UKRAINE. Catching up on `Ukraine: Security Issue` with dramatic
music sounders from UR1 via WRMI 7730 circa 0500, but copied later out
of archive:
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_10_09_22.mp3
For Sept 10, but no date or warday mentioned, including: Liberating
Kharkiv region proceeding. R army still shelling along entire front
line. More than 5500 civilians died, more than 8000 injured, probably
much higher. NATO Secy-Genl says war is entering critical phase. NATO
should be ready for long-term support. More than 80% of R`s land
forces committed to U war. Putin resorting to energy blackmail of
Europe, R increasingly isolated, trying to break will of allies.
Another 5 ships left U ports for Africa, Europe, with grain, corn,
other food. 113 vessels total left for Asia, Africa, Europe. Ports no
longer blocked.
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_11_09_22.mp3
For Sept 11, again no date or warday mentioned, including: Zap. NPP
seized by R, placed mily eqp on it. U has liberated more than 3000 sq
km of territory in Sept. R lost more than 400 soldiers this day.
Civilians still being killed. Shot down enemy missile. Negotiations
with R not currently possible per Pres Z. They must be ready to give
back our land. Negos with R on March 29 but situation has changed.
Needs artillery ammo from Germany. Germany has changed position by 180
degrees in favor of aid. Pres Z has discussed with new British PM.
Moldova banned flights to R.
For Sept 12, not yet posted as of 0345 UT Sept 13. Sept 9 still
missing, linked by mistake to Sept 7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U K [non]. RF 13, KETA virtual 13-1 OKC, Sept 12 at 2200-2227 UT,
what used to be `BBC World News America`, but anchored out of NY or DC
with plenty BBC content, is now coming direct from London, altho the
unknown anchor does acknowledge besides domestix, PBS viewers in
America at closing. BBC were already planning to downsize/merge their
news operation, so this may be the new normal, but EIIR* coverage
threw a monkey wrench into everything, so it`s not clear whether just
a temporary/special arrangement. Furthermore a ``live`` shot from
Scotland at 2210 UT had a clock showing 21:10, so it was already two
hours old! OETA, and other PBS? have always delayed it at least one
hour, olds instead of news. The identical `cast also runs a semi-hour
earlier at 2130 on OETA-2 for our convenience.
BTW, we couldn`t help but notice while CNN & MSNBC and even FNC were
covering memorial service in live Edinburgh, BBC America had: Star
Trek! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7780, UT Tue Sept 13 about 0040-0053, central feature this
week on WRMI, AWR `Wavescan` is Jeff White`s first report from Sofia,
Bulgaria for the B-22 meeting of HFCC, the last week of August,
opening remarx by himself, reps of host Spaceline, ABSU and ABU; more
to come next week. At the same time one might have been hearing WOR on
WRMI 9395, but we have several other airings and WS has dozens of
others as on the WRMI skedgrid or our SWL/DX/Media Programs schedule.
Portions of WS not scripted by Adrian Peterson are never availablized
in transcript form. This was followed by a monthly Philippine DX
report, consisting of a rapid bunch of routine loggings with no
program details, just date, time, frequency, station, language and SIO
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. (7489.9v), Monday Sept 12 at 2259, WBCQ webcast of AW`s
closing prayer ending an `AAAWWW` episode repeat is cut off by an AW
canned ID, as the show always runs at least a bit overtime. I`m tuning
in now to hear the first half of `UBMP` on its secret semi-repeat, as
I often do 25 hours after original Sunday airing at 2200 when I am
distracted by other audio/viewing --- but not any more!
This time has finally been sold, for the first program of ``Living by
the Sword`` from Gospel Gunslingers --- I kid you not: the confluence
of deadly violence, The Second Amendment, and Christianity [gunshot
SFX]: none of that ``other cheek`` crap: ``thou shalt murder thine
enemies``. O, where`s that? Apparently plenty of Biblical references
can be dredged along those lines, as I tune away in less than two
minutes.
Now the only alternative for `UBMP` is UT Sundays at 0300-0400 on
Radio Angela 5130- only, where webcasting is banned; but it`s `billed`
as original airing, with Sun 2200 on 7490-, the only and now final,
repeat. But even on webcast, it`s never in $ tereo. Music on a couple
recent shows I haven`t much cared for, but heh heh, I come back as UB
eclectically invites (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5130 minus 23 Hz = 5129.977, Sept 13 at 0358, WBCQ R. Angela
asking for donations as they are ``working on getting two 100 kW
transmitters to the station``; whence? Presumably used. S9/+10 after
bluegrass show, sounded like Dolly.
Next week on the third Monday = UT Tuesday Sept 20, sked shows at
0355: ``El gringo viejo con mucha cuerda (language: Spanish), Host:
Scott Hadley (Mexico), Format: Scott presents a custom-tailored
version of his popular short on radio station XHBUAP in Mexico in
which he presents early recordings made in Latin America.`` --- where
is XHBUAP? 96.9, a 10 kW college station in Heroica Puebla de
Zaragoza, Puebla, per WTFDA FM Database, which I might have DXed were
it not for a local on same. BUAP stands for Benemérita Universidad
Autónoma de Puebla. That means Meritorious, or Worthy. ``Autonomy`` is
a big deal among Mex Univs unlike USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Reply to my last report: ``Glenn, not SW but FYI: `NBC News
Daily` apparently has four live feeds starting at 16, 17, 18, And 19
UT. Stations can choose which one to air, regardless of location. The
previous soap opera also had multiple feed options. Stephen Luce,
Houston, Texas`` --- hmm, does that mean each hour is different as
news develops? Or mostly the same with different ``live`` timechex.
What if a hot-news affiliate wanted to run it more than once? Of
course, `Nightly` has long provided two feeds at 2230 & 2300 UT, for
affiliate convenience, presumably the same unless news be really,
really, breaking; and likely later ones for west coast. BTW, `not SW`
is not a problem, as I and the WOR iog are open to much broader media
coverage, ``above all, SW`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
