Glenn Hauser logs April 19, 2023

Thursday, April 20 2023


** ALGERIA. 9455, April 19 at 0400, RTA Arabic playing martial
national anthem, but no English ID by 0405 as before following NA;
back into Arabic, and Qur`an; break circa 0430 more talk before
resuming Qur`aning. This continues from previous report about this
colliding with reactivated WRMI, worse on receivers further west
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, April 19 at 0625, RHC English, S9/+10 on wrong
frequency yet again and nowhere else on 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 or 15 MHz
bands. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, April 19 at 0620, JBA carrier only here
below 17500 so presumably Dengê Welat and/or Recep`s Turkish jammer. A
few other JBA carriers further up the band as previously explored
despite the nightmiddle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995.000, April 19 after 2300, ORTM mostly nice African
music, vocals and drumming, fair into UTwente with no QRM, S8/9+5.
However, by 2325 there is CubaRM on both sides unless narrowed.
Scott Walker in Virginia had recommended this hour. Of course it`s
also a regular from around *0600 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Severe weather hitting OKC and southward causes big 3
affiliate stations to blow away network news at 2230 UT April 19,
replaced by wall-to-wall weather warnings. KFOR `4` finds a rerun of
`Friends` too important to preëmpt on substation KAUT `43`. No ABC on
KOCO `5`. But KWTV `9` moves CBS news to its substation KSBI `52`,
just in time instead of `Hiway thru Hell` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed April 19 at 2205, token English SNR topic seems
to be about bees, but I don`t have time to listen. Maybe worth
retrieving from archive. But there`s never enough time to hear
everything desired, now or later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, April 19 at 2200, VOT not AWOL today with
opening timesignal, but VP direct; measurement when checked during
music at 2248 via UTwente, S9+45. Off around 2255 with no extra German
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2186 monitoring: ``From: Richard

UNIDENTIFIED. 10125 CW, April 19 at 0627, again something sending
keyboard letters in sequence with pauses: A S D F G H J K L ; Q W E R
T Y U I O P; periodically interjects much faster: VVV DE HK_QQB_ as
only partially and tentatively copied. I don`t suppose it`s from
Colombia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
