By 0200-0205, MUF is down, opening overing? and I need to quit. At
0400 I see still going, but nexus further west, OK periphery at best
(Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13780, July 15 at 2349, new RHC on air again today, S9+10/15
into Georgia SDR, while 15230 is not on. At 0008 UT July 16, 13780
seems off both at Georgia and Lima, but at 0026 Georgia gets a JBA
carrier, from what? CRI Nepali from Kashgar is not until 0130 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13780, July 16 at 1341, RHC Spanish NF also in the mornings,
S7/S9 direct. 15230 is also on S4/S6 but very suptorted. On second rx
does not seem // or at least not synchronized; same at 1405. At 1420
seems // with applause intervals but not synchro, into Georgia SDRs
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13780, July 16 at 2215, RHC S9+30 in Spanish with good
modulation, and not on 15230. Wonder which transmitter/site and how
they finally got it fixed up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1680, July 16 circa 2000 UT, Virtual DJ Radio still
going, best audible near US412/81 junxion in Enid, but seems weaker
than before - or line noise level worse. Likewise the never IDed rock
music with $ tereo pilot on 95.5, peaking about a mile west, at best
mostly a hummy dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15390, Wed July 16 at 2200, token English from SNR but on
this Af frequency, only a high-pitched tone. Something`s notright at
Noblejas. The other three funxional, but MUF is down, weakening SAm
17715 to S9/+10, ceding betterness to 15520 S9+10 for ME off the back
direct to here; with 15500 for NAm S9+20/30 best by far. Preview topic
to be about the Spanish Association of Consumer Rights. 2201 news
leads again with strife in a Murcia town resulting from 3 north
Africans attacking a real? Spaniard, leading to riots, demonstrations,
protests; ``deport them now`` - not just the culprits. RTVE reporters
had to be escorted out with police protexion. And the PM has visited
Mauritania - implying that`s where they were from. 2206 on to
discussion about a consumer protexion bill, planned obsolescence e.g.
light bulbs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785 & 9875, Wed July 16 at 2159 and later chex, no
signals direct nor at 2225 into UTwente from VOT English for N
America. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 9917.2 & 9942.8, July 16 at 2212, weaker but doubtless
spurs, +/- 12.8 kHz out of 9930 WTWW S9+40/50 direct as TOMBS rants
against Catholix for worshiping Jesus, Mary, saints, rather than the
one and only diety (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17790, July 15 at 2350, checking whether WRMI has extended
this as on current sked: yes, still on with Classic Redneck Radio,
S7/S9, but off by 0006 check July 16 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7780, July 15 at 2351, this WRMI is on already with IS and
ID leading up to scheduled 0000 start, S8/9+10 into Georgia SDR; after
AWOL last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. FM DX opening July 16: see CANADA [and non]

** VANUATU. 9960, July 16 circa 0630, usual signal from R. Vanuatu;
but at 1406 a JBA carrier direct; and 1450-1500+ into Townsville SDR,
S9+10 of dead air except for some hum, some slight SSB QRM nearby.
Still DA at 1631. Off by 1747. As no other stations are ever using
9960, presumably RV leaves its carrier on overnight (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
