 ** BELIZE. 28495 USB, Oct 6 at 2211, V31ZA call only uttered several times, must be trying to reach a more DX station in pileup. QRZ.com: ``V31ZA Belize flag Belize, KEITH SLATER, P.O BOX 76, San Ignacio, Cayo, Central America, Belize`` - is into animal rescues (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHILE [and non]. 28422 USB, Oct 6 at 2210, CE7VP, Patagonia, southern Chile, finally utters own ID after several quick contacts with USA like K2HCW in NJ. QRZ.com: ``CE7VP Chile flag Chile, Javier "Javi" Capdebilla A., P.O. Box : 42, Quellon, Chiloe Island, 5790000, Chile`` - I logged him before, Apr 25 at 2210 on 28433.065. Quite a few other sigs now on 10m, both phone and beacons not relogged such as WN2A/AK2F, AA1TT/B, XE1JAL/B. Way up on 28750 USB, QSO sounds like Ozes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11950, Mon Oct 6 at 2222, RHC Spanish, S9+20/30, slightly better than 11760, S9+20/30 undermodulated, while 13780 is S9+20 but JBM, 15230 deadair or trace of mod S9+20. 11950 is the rarest of these, probably limited hours. Not in current EiBi, but in Aoki M-F 23-24 only from Bauta. That was winter timing IIRC for the TV audio relay hour of `Mesa Redonda` but now // the mainstream RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, Oct 7 at 1858, RHC music, S8/S9 into Maryland SDR but with squeal equally on both sides, transmission defect, SAWA, making interesting display on H2Ofall, symmetrical bands out beyond plus/minus 5 kHz, not avoidable even by AM-narrow tuning, LSB or USB. 1900 ID, 1901 open English, never giving frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [non]. 13605, 11930, 11860, Oct 7 at 1642, R. Martí/LV del Trumpismo not off the air, blasting into Fort Lauderdale SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GERMANY. 3975.001, Oct 6 at 2000 after WOR, kept listening to SW Gold Radio via UTwente, while 6160 had just about faded out, for the Lullaby show, Karen Werner`s `Night Air` live from Bergen, Norway: soft singing until 2017, then dead air -- or to put it more positively, *quietude* as of course by then we are supposed to be dozing, and I almost am. A daring new concept in broadcasting! At 2030 revivifies with ID and some more quiet instrumental music; 2045 another ID and more upbeat music. 2100 `Letterbox Show` as sked Mon & Sat 21-22; Sat 12-13 on 6160, Sun 14-15 on 6160, Fri 17-18 on both 3975 & 6160, Fri 23-24 on 3975 as per: https://shortwaveradio.de/en/week41-2025 but playing music along with greetings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** POLAND [non!]. 17790, Oct 6 at 2159, WRMI gospel huxter // 15770, but after cutting him off for ID at 2159.5, at 2200* 17790 goes off rather than WRN relay of PRES as happens sporadically at least for a portion of the 1-hour program. Something`s odd at Okee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15520, Oct 7 at 1807, this REE frequency for ME is finally reactivated after weeks of silence, in Spanish, S6/S9 into Maryland SDR, // 15390 for Africa much weaker and // 17715 for S America much stronger - but STILL missing 15500 the N American frequency! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 6 at 2158, VOT not off the air, IS & IDs in English, 2200 TS and s/on, previews, S9+20/30 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K O G B A N I [non]. 9915, Oct 7 at 0627, the 0601 BBCWS news fairly audible via ASCENSION, 4 words behind relay via RNZP 11725 with much stronger signal - despite BBC`s best efforts to prevent North Americans from hearing them on SW. Per EiBi & Aoki, 06-07 is the only hour that legacy 9915 is now in use anywhere; for central Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2315 monitoring: confirmed 3975.002- at S9+5 and 6160.001 S9/+10 with usual RTTYditty on plus side requiring narrowed bandwidth if not LSB tuning, into UTwente, Monday October 6 at 1931 with WORLD OF RADIO 2315; 6160 almost fadeout by end, followed by the Lullaby show, see GERMANY. Also confirmed UT Tuesday October 7 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 into S Texas SDR. Also confirmed Tuesday October 7 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, JBA S6/S9 direct. Not confirmed Tuesday October 7 at 1425 the 1400 on even weaker WRMI 9955, JBA, but probably. Next: 2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160 [except Oct 8]; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. Many thanks to Jim Snow, St Simons Is., Georgia, for a generous check to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, and says: ``Dear Mr Hauser, I am sending this donation to help continue your great work in promoting our hobby!`` One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1420, Oct 7 at 0701 UT, ``CBC News`` attributed, sounds like, but no Canadians here in NRC AM Log nor any *non-comms in US which might be carrying it; then 0702 ad mentioning Mississippi Valley Fairgrounds; and ``News/Talk 1420 WOC`` ID, same station? WOC Davenport IA, the usual dominator here of 1420. In Log pp 259-260, I don`t see any network with similar letters (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1360.27 approx., Oct 7 at 0706, JBA het against 1360.0 stations. Estimated not by direct readout, but comparing het pitch in AM, with a frequency offtuned in USB. IIRC a recent report elsewhere of such, but can`t find it now. Nothing so far off, of course, on mwoffsets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7672-7726 approx., Oct 7 at 0632, very wideband multitonal carriers beating against each other, barely missing 7730 WRMI; what`s it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 10009 USB approx., Oct 7 at 0628, mix of voices here, one yelling sort of English, not on exact same frequency. Klingenfuß 2022 says it`s an AMS frequency = aeronautical mobile service, with no further details, like 10006, 10012, 10015, 10018, 10021, 10024, 10027, etc., etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1914 UT October 7 _ 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/
