 ** CANADA [non]. 6160 -74 Hz = 6159.924, July 26 at 0000 this WBCQ has cut on with ambient music, Morse Code, numbers in English and later German, i.e. `Requiem for Radio`, Amanda Dawn Christie`s opus scheduled for this hour but unknown frequency of WBCQ and WWCR. Never found this time on WWCR, despite checking all known frequencies, even at wrong hours, and even those registered only imaginarily.
I quickly check out the others which were publicized: WRMI 17790 is JBA but I hear some mentions of RCI; 15770 is VG S9+10/15 into NH SDR so I keep listening mainly there. 15290 via TDF Issoudun FRANCE puts a VG S9+20/30 signal into NH, presumably aimed thataway, but initially seems JBM if not OC. Later it`s louder and certainly also RfR = which is supposed to be on 5 different transmitters at once, with 5 different audios, so to properly experience it, one needs five radios with good reception and 5 speakers spaced around one? At 0058, 15290 cuts to the Cuban national anthem, and R. República ID, oops! until 0059* - that of course being on the RMI feed to ISS for the 9490 broadcast at 0100. After that, however, 15290 still has a weaker hummy carrier. At 0100, 6160 plays the IRA ad like we hear infesting the WWCR stream openings, but it`s certainly WBCQ, and into Hal Turner. RfR was during the same hour as `AAAWWW` on WBCQ 7490 & 9330 which fortunately turned out to be a repeat. See my previous report for more details about `Requiem for Radio`, from WRMI FB, which showed the next and apparently final broadcast as 2000-2100 UT Sat July 26: 15770 (WRMI), 9395 (WRMI), 21600 (TDF); and probably 9980 (WWCR), but where on WBCQ? Since ADC put so much effort into this project, it`s a shame she did not clue us all in advance about the details (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13780.00, July 25 at 2345, RHC S7/9+10 with music into UTwente and good modulation. At 2359 RHC IS, VG into Maryland SDR and off shortly after. Now this remote reads 66/67 Hz high, since WWV 15000 also looks likewise. 13780, July 26 at 1441, RHC Spanish, S7 into Maryland SDR, but at 1444 JBA carrier direct. 26 de julio: time for my annual tribute to The Revolution, parody of their favorite slogan; again I invite photographic evidence of this being scrawled on any public surface, however briefly, inside Cuba: PATRIA O SUERTE, ¡PENSAREMOS! which could be loosely translated, ``Fatherland or Fortune, we`ll think about it!`` i.e., get out of here for a better life (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, July 26 at 1510 UT, still NO signal from K17JN-D, the 3ABN satellator, Enid`s only local TV signal. First noted missing on June 11, a sesquimonth ago. Rabbitears.info still does not X this as off the air, unlike K32MG-D, the only other Enid entry, which I can never recall seeing. RF 20, July 26 at 1510 UT, the only BAD signal with slight tropo enhancement, very likely KQCW-DT Muskogee, Tulsa market (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15520.001, Fri July 25 at 2156, REE S9+15/25 into UTwente prior to token English; at 2200, 15500 is S9+5/22 into Maryland SDR. No news, but right into feature about The Way of St James, some weird religious trek the Spaniards engage in. I listen no further (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.024+, July 25 at 2156, VOT into UTwente, dead air at S9+40/45. By next check 2200, is modulating but tone QRM of about 1 kHz; seems to be on both USB and LSB, so not QRM; and same thing heard into Maryland SDR. Therefore, it`s a transmission, not reception defect. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Reducing bandwidth helped, but must reduce too far to diminish it. I listen no further, altho it might have been possible to notch it out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKOGBANI. 7350.000, July 26 at 1901, S9+35 from Woofferton into UTwente, strange vocalizations by wide variety of human voices, bird sounds, airplane roar. As in this info via Alan Pennington, BDXC UK via Alan Roe: ``[WOR] Radio Love Warbler SW - Imminent at 1900 on 7350 via Woofferton! Radio Love Warbler will broadcast locally on 87.7 FM from a transmitter hosted by the National Coastwatch Institution, Folkestone, daily from dawn to dusk 19th July - 19th October 2025. This is a project by British-Finnish artist Hanna Tuulikki: "What if a bird could remix its own love song? Hanna Tuulikki’s Love (Warbler Remix) brings this idea to life through the Marsh Warbler - a clever migrating bird that copies and blends the songs it hears on its journey." https://www.creativefolkestone.org.uk/artists/hanna-tuulikki/ The above website also shows shortwave broadcasts from Encompass Woofferton (first tomorrow 26 July): Radio Love Warbler SW Broadcasting internationally on shortwave radio 26 July 2025, 19.00 UTC Western Europe, Central Europe and Southern Europe (7350 kHz) 9 August 2025, 19.00 UTC Southern Europe, Southeastern Europe and Middle East (9500 kHz) [...] Full details:`` https://www.creativefolkestone.org.uk/artists/hanna-tuulikki/ Not quite full: duration, 1900 until when, 2000?

Pre-`AAAWWW` WBCQ chex, July 25 at 2349 into NH SDR: 3265 off. 5130 off. 6160 off but CRI English via Kashgar to S Asia at 23-24 is poorly audible. 7490 -78 Hz = 7489.922 is S9+10/15 with FKB. 9330.00 with WLCR Portuguese is S6/S9. Just before *2356, 5130 -85 Hz = 5129.915 cuts on with IS & ID. UT Sat July 16 at 0000, 5130- starts something else, presumably `The Intelligence Report`, ex-6160. And 7490 is already in `WTO` theme of `AAAWWW`, opening interjexion ``another day, another no-dollar``, so it`s a repeat as expected of last week`s show as I reported in detail then. Never mind. However, something else on 6160: see CANADA [non]! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)7 ** U S A. 9980, July 25 at 2215, this WWCR-4 is on again with gospel huxter, audible at Bonaire where I`ve just checked WOR on 9955. At 2217 into Maryland SDR, S9/+20 with praise music. Still supposed to be totally off per program sked. It might have stayed on past 0000 for Requiem for Radio, but did not (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Re: 1700, KKLF, stuck in a 16-second loop for hours and hours: ``Glenn et al., These days many stations “local offices” do not exist. In the case of KKLF their owner, who is Claro Communications, has the address that you see in the AM Radio Log. You will notice in the next edition that won’t change. The mailing address for all of the corporate owners’ stations of religious broadcaster Relevant Radio is listed at their corporate address in Lincolnshire, IL… Unfortunately, that is the way it is these days, and it is not a “Joke” that we list the best available contact for stations in these days of corporate owned radio in America. 73, Wayne Heinen N0POH, Editor, NRC AM Radio Log, Aurora, CO`` Wayne, the ``joke`` I meant was not about the address but the ``programming``. However an address 359 miles away suggests that there is no one in The Metroplex responsible for keeping the station running smoothly. Of course the same thing can happen totally locally (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1944 UT July 26 _ 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/
