** OKLAHOMA. 89.7, May 21 at 2040 UT, $ tereo pilot is back on KJTH
Ponca City, contrary to my check May 18 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. Some area tropo affects UHF TV, May 21 at 1455 UT. Bad
signal on RF 20 briefly decodes with News on 6, which is KOTV Tulsa,
and after tuning around I get same on RF 26, which is primary, but how
was I seeing same on 20? Rabbitears.info reminds us that RF 20 is
KQCW, 19-1, which is a substation of KOTV. Checking KQCW program
schedule, yes in fact they put News on 6 on KQCW during that and
several other hours. KOTV news stream audio is also on 1170 kHz, now
renamed KOTV too, ex-KTSB, ex-KFAQ, ex-KVOO. And 1170 also spews IBOC
QRM above 1180, ``jamming`` R. Martí. Otherwise around 15 UT May 21: NO signal on 17, not a bit on the
``meter`` from local Enid K17JN-D misnamed K17JI-D. Either it is off,
or totally QRMed by DX, such as KTEN Ada, OK`s only full-power on 17.
Later in afternoon when tropo has burned off, still zero on 17, such
as 2330. RF 29, KTUZ signal is BAD, unusual, must be DX QRM. But there are no
other full-powers in OK or KS per FCC LMS. BTW, City of License
Shawnee for KTUZ is meaningless, as it`s really part of the NE OKC
antenna farm, sharing the very same tower with all these TV and FM:

And how can 27 KFOR-TV be only 55 kW ND, while 29 KTUZ-TV is 1000 kW
ND? Normally roughly equal signals here (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, 17715, 15520, 15390, Wed May 21 at 2200, token
English from SNR on all four, previewing something about a festival;
news leading something about former Ukrainian leader fleeing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) See also TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING below ** TURKEY. 11785, May 21 at 2159, 2215 direct, VOT no signal; nor at
2253 into UTwente, nor on accidentalternate 9875, tho that would have
WTWW splatQRM. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. 11725, May 21 at 0602, S9/+25, BBC news relay via RNZP
again here instead of sked 13690, the booming voice of Neil Nunes, who
originated in Jamaica; and again the SSOB and if it were not for JBA
11700 France, OSOB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 8992 USB, May 21 until 1437, US military crypto message
exercise concluding with ``Automatic, out``. Punxuated by irregular
noise bursts, rather like thunderclaps, which I think are intentional
among different types of self-imposed QRM; first heard on much weaker
15016 USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2295 monitoring: ``Richard Lemke,

7489.924, S3/S6 into NH SDR. BTW, tuning in early at 2056, it`s
*still* TOMBS instead of what used to precede and still shown on sked,
`Pirate Joe Extravaganzo` - not extravaganza, which would be feminine.
TOMBS has no built in breaks at hourtops, so he has to be chopped off
at 2059.5 for WBCQ promo and ID. Next: 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. Thanks this week for generous financial support from Peter Robinson,

PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 98.3, May 21 at 2040 UT, dead air in $ tereo, presumably my
otherwise near-local KQZQ Kiowa KS, home of Scott Becker, 97.0 kW ERP,
208.9 m HAAT (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9930, May 21 at 2204, WTWW at first with dead air, then
TOMBS modulation, extremely strong. Even before mod started I was
hearing splatter spurs, as well as the usual parasites plus and minus
12.9 kHz from center. The splatter beyond sort of peaks at multiples
of that, tho very diffuse/broad. Some peaks circa 9872, 9859,
especially 9846, 9808; upper around 10005 severely QRMing WWV! Once
there is talk modulation, on a second receiver I match the peaks to
9930 and NOT 9980 WWCR which is also TOMBsing but never synchronized.
Also match during music bits. I detect the splatter as far down as
9600 and as far up as 10250 very approximately. Meanwhile I emailed
George by 2225 urging him to close down immediately. Probably did not
get my message right away, altho abated slightly, but still there
around 9846, 10050; and at 2305 around 9846, 10015. At 2323 check,
9930 is still on but dead air again; turned off at 2327. Back on at
*2328.7 OC. 2330.7 resume TOMBS, shortly back to dead air. Making
adjustments, I guess. 2335 off again. *2342 cut back on with TOMBS
immediately, still broad splatter peaks circa 9846, 10015. And so it
goes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING Spain committed national suicide through mass deportation
