** BRAZIL [and non]. 28475 USB, Oct 31 at 2218, PU2KNM calling CQ DX,
and so is HC4ES colliding. Obviously they can`t hear each other.
QRZ.com: ``PU2KNM Brazil flag Brazil, CLAUDIO, RUA: PAULO NEDOPETALSKI
215 BAIRRO ALTO DA TENDA, APIAI, SP 18320000, Brazil`` -- His ``latest
QSOs`` all date from 2021y. And:
``HC4CS Ecuador flag Ecuador, ARMANDO CERVANTES, URB. VISTA PACIFICO,
MANZANA B SOLAR 3 AYANGUE SANTA ELENA, AYANGUE SANTA ELENA, EC 240109,
Ecuador`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 15034 USB, Nov 1 at 2237, Trenton Military still on daytime
channel, giving its time as ``2135z``! and then conditions at Shannon
as of 2230; go figure - literally (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Nov 1 at 2238, RHC S9/+10 in suptorted Spanish, //
13780 not distorted. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHILE. 28375 USB, Nov 1 at 2242, CE3PCU calling CQDX in English;
hard to understand Uniform, and is it two or three? But there is no
CE2PCU at QRZ.com: ``CE3PCU Chile flag Chile, Marco Antonio Saez
Palma, foresta oriente 11940 c 8, santiago chile, Chile`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ITALY. 1322.995+ kHz, Friday Oct 31 at 2030, IRRS via AM Italia,
S8.6 into UTwente across Europe, not WORLD OF RADIO as I forgot to
shift it one UT hour later already on my sked, but `Counterspin` in
progress until 2054. This an excellent program from USA, yet appears
nowhere on the IRRS schedule any day of the week; rather now, ``news
and features from our studio``, which means we can`t depend on it,
just another filler. https://fair.org/counterspin/
At 2100 into `Wavescan` as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960.002+, Oct 31 at 2315, VOT not off the air, S9+20/30

OK, WOR)
** U S A. 420 MCW kHz, Nov 1 at 0658 UT, NDB TU, copied best when

** U S A. 9930, Oct 31 at 2041, still deadair from WTWW. I notified
George and he replied that it`s not a transmitter problem this time,
but failure of the ``data line``, i.e. program feed from Bob Biermann,
also affecting the other transmitter which might prevent WOR at 0300
UT Sat on 5085. Not clear to me why leave transmitter on with dead air
for hours and hours; maybe hopeful feed will pop back on at any
second. By next check 2329, TOMBS is back on 9930, moanin` & groanin`
hour. At 0105 Nov 1, 5085 is also on, but modulation extremely
distorted. He says that`s fixed by 0117 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. (7490), Nov 1 at 0000 UT, WBCQ stream, not even trying SW
this time, for `AAAWWW`; first interjexion in WTO theme is
``cookies``, and last one is ``60``?, segué to ``Monster Mash``. 0011
Jason is on phone, in charge of R. Angela, which will start at 0100 UT
Sat with a Hallowe`en show, thence 24/7 on 6160. He used to do a `Rock
Waves` show once a week, and will rerun archives of that on Friday
nights renamed ``High Voltage``. Most programming will be at *random*
times, only a few scheduled shows. Damian, a new hire, who runs a
store somewhere in Caribou, ``Mudroom Records`` will do a show by that
name? in about two weeks. Jason has picked out 1600! one-hour shows
from the BCQ archive to play. Would-be programmers may contact him,
Jason Hill, P O Box 344, Monticello ME 04760. Will avoid poltix &
religion, rather music and entertainment. And only on analog SW 6160,
NO streaming, tho welcome to listen via remote SDRs somewhere on the
east coast. 0037 Allan says now on 9330, 7490, 6160, 5130; but not
3265 because no one but him knows how to turn it on (and he`s in
Florida now); it has no remote control. Also on laser into space, and
gives nanometer wavelength, but I missed it! Assures us this is live
as of 10/31/25. 0038 into music. At 0050 I bring up 6160 -75 Hz =
6159.925, S7/S9 into NH SDR, a lot weaker than the others including
5130-. Hey, I`m too busy to listen for random programming! Need to
know when to hear what I may be interested in. The 6160 sked still
shows mostly Hal Turner, which has been canceled:
http://wbcq.com/schedule/index.php?fn=sked&freq=6160
At 0100, 6160 starts Radio Angela, with scary organ music. Harold in
spooky voice introduces HW sounds and stories. I haven`t tried to
listen since (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9395, Sat Nov 1 at 1600, WRN relay via WRMI starting KBS
World Radio. WRN still has not put up a B25 schedule, and this is not
merely a one-hour-later shift as the A25 sked does not show KBS at
1500 Sat, rather DW. But at 1530 R. Prague was on, rather than 1430.
This is the sked you get for NAm, despite being labeled Africa & Asia
Pacific, but we thought the services had axually been merged:

Here is the page linking to skeds, surely eventually leading to B25s:

Whether or not WRMI be relaying parts of this is another matter (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 17525, Oct 31 at 2228, WMLK has DEJOM about to sign off with
postal address, lofi audio with hum, S9+30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1550.3, Nov 1 at 0700 UT, again mystery off-frequency
carrier hetting 1550.0 stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
