** CANADA. 93.5, June 3 at 1800 UT, snippet of Canadian news
mentioning a minister, immediately fading out. I`ve just turned on
caradio after Es FM DX MUF spiking 114 MHz to the NE of here, and
afterwards on DXMAP I see a lot of paths between Ontario and here; and
the most likely of the few full-power stations there is the CBC one,
per WTFDA FMDB: CBCL-FM 93.5 LONDON ON CAN 100.0 kW H only, 267.2m,
Mono NEWS/TALK, CBC RADIO ONE 93.5 FM. Kept tuning for another
semihour but no sign of any other Es (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, June 3 at 0624, music = noise level, but enough to tell
that R. Rebelde is not off the air this time; something`s not wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY. 1322.994+, June 2 at 1950 UT, music to ``Off the Wall``
anti-Trump talk. From IRRS SW relay via AM Italia. S9 at first into
UTwente, but some deep fades into noise. Like so much of its
``schedule``, IRRS does not show any specific program title at this
time, so no commitment, who knows what will appear next week? Nor is
it among the hundreds of programs at publicradiofan.com - but I find
program website as if it`s only on WUSB:
https://www.2600.com/offthewall/
Not to be confused with sibling show `Off the Hook` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, June 3 at 0615, JBA carrier on inside random
wire during storm, safe to presume it`s Station YHWH running late
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 87.9, June 3 at 1801 UT, the neighborly open carrier in
$ tereo is on again. Off by 2210. 95.5, June 2 circa 1945 UT, rock music lowpower pirate peaking around
Garriott and Cleveland in Enid is still going, as I drive thru the
area again. Not enough to capture from QRM, but fading away a few blox
north (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. I was seeking Es FM DX with lots of stuff on the maps,
but all I am hearing are tornado warning coverage all over the dial,
as many but not all OKC area stations are relaying one TV station
audio or another. KOCO ``5`` and KOKH ``25`` are on it, but the ones I
can recognize are KFOR ``4`` and KWTV ``9``. This is a rush job and
many not all be correct, in the 2216-2245 UT period June 3: KFOR ON: 88.5, 89.7, 90.1, 90.5, 93.7, 96.1, 100.5, 101.9, 102.7. Also
on AM 1000, 1340 vs huge noise level so not all signals are even
audible. KWTV ON: 91.7, 92.5, 92.9, 93.3, 95.3, 96.9, 98.9, 99.7, 104.1, 107.7,
and at 2242 even 104.5 which would be Woodward way out of the risk
area. And 1520 KOKC like on 95.3. Most of the gospel huxters ignored the tornado situation, with
exception of The House on 88.5 & 89.7: good for them. Coverage but not
sure from which TV station: 98.1. Some hastened to resume regular
programming ASAP circa 2230: 90.1, 98.1, 98.9, 100.5. Other obs: 93.7 KSPI Stillwater stayed in rock music. 106.7 KTUZ in
live? Spanish but unseemed about weather. 104.7 Ponca outside the
storm area, dead air in $ tereo at 2221, 2234. 105.1 stayed in stupid
sports talk (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15390, Mon June 2 at 2200, token English from SNR is VP but
better here on ME azimuth than the other three into UTwente, all of
which are offbeam or too close. At 2210 into Maryland SDR, 15500 for
NAm is the only one usable, tho much weaker S5/S7 due to degraded
propagation, than usual inbooming, the others JBA, 15520, 17715; and
15390 has a LAH = low audible heterodyne never heard otherwise (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, June 2 at 2200 and later chex into UTwente, no
signal from VOT in English; not on 11780 either like yesterday, just
traces of Brasil; nor on 11790 where they were advised to move; nor on
accidentalternate 9875. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler and/or
awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.006+, June 3 at 2211, JBA carrier direct, so VOT
English seems back on proper frequency. Yes, at 2252 into UTwente when
measured, multi-lingual ID filler reel, 2253 s/off as if 1230 on
17620, awry at Ankara, 4 notes of IS before chop 2254*. Very bigsig
but did not get a reading before gone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2297 monitoring: also confirmed
Monday June 2 at 1930 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.002-, S8/9+5 into
UTwente; and JBA on 6159.999+ both with hets of different pitches,
unknown sources. Also confirmed UT Tuesday June 3 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+20/30 into S
Texas SDR. Not confirmed Tuesday June 3 at 1301 on WRMI 9955, JBA S7 direct,
probably but can`t be sure it`s my voice. At 1300 sharp I might have
been able to recognize some notes from WOR theme. Confirmed Tuesday June 3 at 1423 the 1400 on WRMI 9955, S9+30 into
Georgia SDR, while JBA direct. Could not check 2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323v as
computer and internet off during local storm. Next: 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. Thanks this week for financial support from Terry Colgan, N5RTC of
Texas Radio Shortwave, via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to
woradio at yahoo.com, ``thanks for your hard work, keeping us
up-to-date on all things broadcasting.`` One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser,
P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 91.5, June 3 at 1810 UT on caradio, KSNS 96 kW vertical
only, Medicine Lodge, Kansas is *still* transmitting a very
off-putting big hum along with religious talk, 1820 program as `Our
Daily Bread`. This should be a big giveaway for anyone getting it as
DX. $ tereo pilot is on but sounds mono. Don`t hear much music from
them despite original slogan ``Keep Singing New Songs``. 92.9, June 3 at 1809 UT, ``Wichita Falls` #1 Hit Music Station``, i.e.
KNIN-FM, 100 kW, 114 m, ``92-9 NIN`` the listed slogan which they
might utter too. JBA fringe from TX overcoming OK stations, notably
K225BN, `The Edge` relay of 92.5 KOMA-HD2, 200 watts (Glenn Hauser,
Enid OK, WOR)
