** CANADA. 269 MCW kHz, Oct 29 at 0636 UT, JBA dash and ID too weak to
copy, but smax of Canadian. DXinfocentre.com and RNA list show only:
UDE, 50 watts at Delta MB; and two or three USA (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 6010.01, Oct 29 at 0632, JBA carrier, probably LV de tu
Conciencia, which was previously slightly on low side as measured by
Wolfgang Bueschel, while R. Inconfidência, Brasil is always on the
plus side (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, S9+5 of DA with squeal, Oct 29 at 1455; 11760 dead air
at S6/S8, Oct 20 at 1456, no signal on 13780 from RHC where
something`s always wrong. At 1900 retune to 15140, `news` in English
already in progress so must have started early; no other frequencies
on and 15140 has some noise, S9+10 direct; but at 1935 into Knoxville
SDR, 15140 is a bit noisy at S9+20/30, to dead air at 1958. At 2215,
modulating on 11950, at 2216 dead air on 11760, at 2221 DA S9+10 on
6000. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 15380, Oct 29 at 1454, R Martí on already, maybe
because of hurricane, rather than usual *1600. Direct at 1456 also on
11860 & 11930 but not 13820. 1650 all four are on, VG into Ft
Lauderdale SDR. Usually off by 2100 but today still going at 2215
about UNICEF aid to Cuban children hit by hurricane, on 15380, 11930,
11860, 9565, not 13820, all VG direct from Grimesland up to S9+20/30.
By 2337 all are off, nor 7, 6 MHz evening channels (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** DENMARK. 25800, Oct 29 at 1451, JBA carrier vs noise level of S4 in
USB, S1 in AM mode. I`ve been trying to hear World Music Radio, but no
better than this so far. Ralph Perry in IL and Walt Salmaniw in BC
have been hearing it. Via Mike Barraclough: ``World Music Radio (WMR)
is broadcasting on
5930 kHz 24/7 - Transmitter site: Ishoj, Copenhagen.
15700 kHz Daily 0800-1600 UTC (From October 26, 2025) -
Transmitter site: Randers.
25800 kHz 24/7 - Transmitter site: Marslet, Aarhus``

But as of Oct 29 from Alex Miatlikov: ``Denmark's WMR is now on new
frequency 3965 kHz, probably 24/7. Plans to start broadcasting on 3965
and 25820 kHz were announced earlier this year. -- Alex, Dnipro,
Ukraine`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6055-6060-6065, Oct 29 at 0633, S9+30 of DRM noise. TDF has
huge number of DRM registrations in B25 HFCC, many of them with more
than one CIRAF target at same time. 6060 at 06-07 could be aimed at
280, 148, 333 or 232 degrees from Issoudun. In fact, more DRM then AM:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 21660 AM, Oct 29 at 1510, MiniTransAt marine weather in
French, S9/+10 into Azores SDR, OM voice for a change, with pulsing
undercurrent like jamming, but must be Issoudun transmitter defect. By
1535, YL voice is ranking the contestants in order; 1541 ``that`s all
for today; à demain`` and music fill of familiar showtune medley, no
further announcements until chop at 1600* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 13755, Oct 29 at 0624, news presumably from BBC, on NF
of RNZP, S9+15/25 and the SSOB by far, ex-11725 and just as good. RNZI
website:
05:59 - 09:58     13755     Pacific     Daily

Fri
09:59 - 12:58     13755     Pacific     Sat - Sun

Pacific means the 35 degree antenna, best for us, and Van/Sol/PNG
means 325 degree beam. HFCC displays it differently:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, Oct 29 at 2220, S9+20 rock music. These
say it`s Thunder Chicken Radio, including a horrible SSTV image:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1680, Oct 29 at 2030 UT, Virtual DJ Radio ID near ground
zero US81 @ US412, following ``Knock Three Times`` and preceding
``Wheels`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 5140 USB, Wed Oct 29 at 1408, no sign of OK emergency
net, that Don Moore has been reporting to MARE Tipsheet; he did hear
them on Oct 15 while in Kansas, thought maybe weekly, or first and
third Wed? Must check Wed Nov 5 at 9 am CST which then will be 15 UT.
He logged numerous towns and calls, all W + 3 letters and 3 numbers

** SPAIN. 12030, Wed Oct 29 at 2344, ``English language service of
Spanish National Radio``, and immediately Spanish! announcement, back
to English, discussion about drama. Best by far into FL SDR, tho only
S4/S7 off the back of ME beam, and JBA carriers on 17715, 17755; still
AWOL from 9690 N American frequency which they keep announcing without
embargo, such as just before 1900 opening on 17715 which at that time
was good direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Oct 28 at 2315, trace of a carrier line at
Maryland SDR; a little more at another Maryland; Carlow, Ireland hears
Chinese only S5/S7, algo on accidentalternate 9610. UTwente offline.
VOT must be off the air in English. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.002, Oct 29 at 2322, VOT not off the air,
S9+20/30 into UTwente, but with 6CI = CCCCCCI = Chinese language
Chinese Communist co-channel interference. Just a trace of that into
NH SDR, S9+15/20, Efsun playing martial music, 2327 `Sports Panorama`
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7268 LSB, Oct 29 at 0617 latest hurricane info from NWS on
Hurricane Watch Net, including Cuba, Haiti, Jamaica, Cayman Is,
Bahamas, Turx & Caicos. I had been wondering about Cayman as never
mentioned otherwise, luckily just outside the hurricane path. Next
advisory to be at ``5 AM`` = EDT = 0900 UT, ID as N8 + something and
off. Nothing heard on quick chex of 7098 & 7198 ARRL specified for
Carib hurricane traffic. Daytime HWN is on 14325 USB (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

for your program [0300 UT Saturday]. No transmitter problem. Was on
this last Friday, Saturday, Sunday. George McClintock 10-29-2025``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7570 // stronger 5850, Oct 29 at 0620, WRMI playing `The
Moldau`, great classical music by Smetana, so R. Prague as on WRN? Or
is this Encore?? Not sked now, and just before finale, modulation
rudely chopped off at 0628*. Dead air for a minute, and at 0629 (not
0630), ``Welcome to Encore,`` from Brice Avery, i.e. start of an hour
program, and 0630 intro four love songs by Guillaume Dufay. This does
not match either of the two current Playlist displays. It appears that
WRMI is running fragments of old Encores as fill music. As usual,
skedgrid self-contradictory showing WRN or Legends during this hour.
Something`s odd at Okeechobee. Brice, on what dates/weeks, were you
playing those pieces? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 24950 USB, Oct 29 at 2223, WA6TN calling CQ.
This was a recheck following songs at 2212-2214, then off & on; and

voxing and not from same station. QRZ.com: ``WA7TN USA flag USA, R
