 ** CHINA. 11670 // 11725, Tue Feb 18 at 1512, huge VG signals S9+20/30 from CNR1 jammers: per EiBi, 11670 vs RFA Mandarin via Philippines this hour only; 11725 vs RFA Mandarin via Kuwait, this hour only on Tue & Thu only. Aoki fails to * that 11725 be jammed. No trace of victims here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, Feb 18 at 0730, R. Rebelde is OFF. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. It had been ON earlier in evening (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Feb 18 at 1506, RHC music S9 but JBM. Is anyone ever hearing any active RHC frequency besides this and 6000? Spanish evenings on 9710 is not RHC as someone guessed, but CRI East Turkistan. 9710 still shows on RHC website of grossly outdated info (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, Feb 18 at 1509, S6/S6 of JBA music on signature off-frequency of ex-Hikari FM, in Mexico? Earlier than Rick Barton reports it normally starting at 1700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Feb 18 at 1504, S9+35/45 of dead air from TOMBS via WWCR; but resumed in less than a minute. No idea how many minutes or hours of DA preceded that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 18 at 2300 past 2330, NO signal from VOT, or TRT. VOT programming was ``back`` Feb 17, but neither on air today! Likewise the 2130 broadcast on 9610, both checked via UTwente, hearing only the Chinese no longer understations. So much for that; or, who knows what`s next? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 26110 NBFM, Feb 18 at 1901, local weather, S5 far from full quieting, from KMK282, aux of KOVR `13` Stockton CA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2282 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday February 18 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+20/40 into S Texas SDR. Also confirmed Tuesday February 18 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, S9/+20 direct. Also confirmed Tuesday February 18 at 1500 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9 direct. No problem from something on 9960, which would be VOA Philippines in Myanmarianese at 1430-1630, rather than Vanuatu. Also confirmed Tuesday February 18 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italian, 1322.999-, S9 into UTwente. Next: 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 2030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975.

Therefore it is: KZNX Creedmoor TX, U7 10000/220 watts per NRC AM Log, but beware: another SS on 1530 is KXTD Wagoner OK also with FM on 104.9 but its other is 100.3, Qué Buena. KZNX`s 104.9 is KTXX-FM, 3.2 kW in Bee Cave. Its 95.1 is a mere translator, K236AT in Westlake Hills TX, 99 watts. Radio-locator shows address 6633 E Hwy 290, Austin TX 78723. But NRC Log shows address for KZNX in El Paso, tho Creedmoor is south of Austin, a tiny town pop. 202 as of 2010y census; why does it deserve such a station? U7 means 3 different direxional antenna patterns for day, night, and critical hours, CH power being 1000 watts. Locator shows two different sites, nighttime SE of Austin closer to Manor; day and CH south of Austin. If that`s not complex enough, per NRC also has a PSRA power of 55 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1670, Feb 18 at 0755, ``Black Information Network, Macon 1670``, easily surpassing local Enid pirate? Virtual DJ Radio, and XEFCR Reynosa. That`s WMGE, CoL Dry Branch GA. That leaves WOZN Madison WI sports the only other 1670 within easy range to here, besides two Californians and a Quebeckian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** YEMEN [non]. 11934.9, Feb 18 at 1505, and still 1849, poor signal direct, presumed Arabic from Rep. of Yemen Radio, via SA`UDI ARABIA, on signature very stable offset, and no ``jamming`` for a long time now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6001, Feb 18 at 0515, nothing on 6000 but at UTwente 6000 USB tuning still audiblizes the beepery only. Previously about this on-off-keying under CUBA [and non], ISRAEL, also maybe Norway? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11954.1, Feb 18 at 1850, JBA signal, also at 2004. Nothing in EiBi or Aoki on 11955 at these times, but HFCC has NHK Yamata, Japan registered 1900-0100 in Japanese at 290 degrees. Or maybe a local birdie, but seems stable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2349 UT February 18, 4 degrees F in Enid _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
