** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 25 at 2158, no signal direct from RNA/RNB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 28153 CW, re my log of beacon VE3IDS/B: ``Hi Glenn, Thanks
very much for the report. Yes ten metres has been pretty quiet this
summer. I appreciate the reports to know that there are people
searching for beacons. RBN is handy but a report from a human is
better! I will be happy to snail mail you a QSL card. I have some mail
to go to the post office on Monday. 73 Don ve3ids`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** CHINA [and non]. 11760, Aug 25 at 2210, JBA signal, presumably CRI
Portuguese via Xianyang site, rather than Cubacarrier as in Aug 23
report. About which this reply: ``Hello Glenn, I suspect you had a Cuban carrier with CRI Xian
underneath at 2200+ Z yesterday {Aug 23}. The carrier continued
throughout the evening yesterday, gone before 0400 sometime {UT Aug
24}. The carrier was back on this afternoon {Aug 25} at 2025 Z check,
excellent level, then came to life with excellent quality Radio
Rebelde audio at 2103Z, until abrupt plug pull at 2138*. 11760 audio
was synchro with a very weak 5025 signal, which suggests that a second
"RHC" tx at the Bauta site is now back in operation. 13780 RHC SPA was
also on during the 2100+ period, very weak here. CRI came up on 11760
for the usual 2200 POR fill music program at good level with flutter,
// 9685. And previously, I've never heard any Cuban CRI relays except
through Quivicán, FWIW... 73. -- David E. Crawford, Indian River City,
Florida Libre`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) see also CUBA below ** CUBA [and non]. 750, Aug 26 at 0704, whooper audible under WSB; not
often, and right now not heard on 870, 1040 or anywhere else. Only
Cuban listed in WRTH is R. Progreso, 10 kW, in Palmira, Cienfuegos
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Aug 25 at 2203, RHC S7/S9 but suptorted unreadable;
also S9+30 and clear on 13780 in Spanish, seems not // until I compare
music breaks vs talk, showing they are a few sex out of sync.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, Aug 26 at 0633, Spanish S9+30, as RHC
frequencies/transmitters are being revived, but at this hour? Suspect
it`s R. Rebelde programming and does seem // MW 1620 under QRM, can`t
tell about 5025 which remains a JBA carrier. Then at 0634, R. Rebelde
ID, and also an old yelled ID presumably dating from its early
clandestine era (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760 & 15230, Aug 26 at 1508, JBA carriers presumably RHC,
no signal on 13780. And another update from David Crawford, FL: ``11760 was noted this morning, 26 AUG, 1310 Z open carrier, 1320 very
faint audio, then up to readable but low modulation by 1325, carrying
RHC SPA. 1406 the audio was dialed back down, still open carrier at
1530 recheck, then was gone at 1758 recheck. Excellent signal level
and audio quality. The interesting thing: The 11760 RHC audio was exactly synchro with
the known old Quivicán tx on 6000 up to its sign-off at 1400. 13780
had the typical Bauta ~0.7 sec audio delay behind Quiv. Also, as
previously reported, the 11760 Rebelde relay the evening prior was
synchronized with the "weak 5025" Rebelde tx. Two conclusions: 11760 appears to be a new or very-well-repaired
transmitter at Quivicán, not the historical Bauta 11760. And the low
power 5025 Rebelde tx is likewise located at Quivicán.`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) See also CHINA [and non] ** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20 and much weaker 15390, Mon Aug 25 at 2159, these
REEs are on while 15500 & 15520 are OFF; still no English at 2200,
rather Spanish about Cambuya = Cambodia, what else? Some dispute about
whether to spell it Camboya in Spanish. Something`s nonsensical at
Noblejas, messedup in Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [non]. 11785+, Aug 25 at 2158, no signal direct from VOT.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler; nor at 2240 into UTwente,
when also checked accidentalternate 9875: not there either, only weak
off-frequency-minus signal, no doubt Korea North (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. Office of Cuba Broadcasting saving Greenville station: From
usually reliable sources: "Staff is being called back to Greenville,
and reportedly will be put back into normal operation. Greenville is
OCB owned now, allegedly because management thought OCB would have its
budget cut and have to turn it off and Washington management would not
be held responsible." (via Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2309 monitoring: Correxion: I wrote 9475

gospel huxter, KYFI St. Louis MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Re carrier I had on 1360.28, Martin Foltz replies: ``I
hear a big jet [het] on 1360 here in Sarasota FL. Martin`` - Well, no
Cubans are listed on 1360; one each in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico.
However, excellent new free IRCA Mexican Log shows three CPs on 1360: https://www.ircaonline.org/editor_upload/File/2025-26_IRCA_Mexican_Log.pdf
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9236.0, Aug 26 at 0635 open carrier with JBA clix
roughly once per second, and detectable out to 9220/9246. What is
this? Another report: ``3-Second "Click" Signal --- Hi Glenn, I just wanted to tell you that
last night I listened for the mystery "clicker" on the 31 meter band.
Sure enough, there he was. His signal was quite wide. Far too wide. I
was hearing him across a span of greater than 400 KHz. I did notice
that the period of the signal varied a bit. Only slightly, but
perceivable. Probably not any kind of radar. Take care, my friend. I
am a faithful listener to your podcasts. John Lutz, N9JL, EN51vm``
Shorewood IL, Aug 24 ``John, Good. Did you note the frequency range, top to bottom, or a
`center` frequency of open carrier like I have been getting? Glenn`` ``I started listening at 9936 kHz, and (randomly) decided to tune
lower in the band. I was still hearing it at 9350 KHz. At 9300 KHz it
was no longer audible. Thinking about it, the signal spanned over 600
KHz. Maybe a lot more. I didn't attempt to find the dropout point on
the high side, but it was definitely audible above 9,936 KHz. I
suppose it could be a radar set. It seems that 30-31 meters is
becoming a popular place for OTH radars. 😟 I listened for The Clicker again tonight {UT Aug 25}. No joy. But band
conditions seemed considerably better than last night.`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1956 UT August 26
