** CUBA. 5025, Dec 12 at 0727, S9+5/25 of dead air in Spanish from R.
Rebelde. Often missing completely, but tonight, halfway there! SAWA
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Dec 12 at 1520, RHC windhowl only, S8; 15230 JBA music
S3/S4; 11880 talk JBA S4/S5, maybe not Cuba. Still not hearing 13780
anymore at anytime. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15140 windhowl only and 11880 dead air, as usual, Dec 12 at
1959 tune-in, just in time for no English, from RHC, where SAWA. 15140
& 11880 the same at 2055 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 660, Dec 12 at 0707 UT, ``Esto es ABC Deportes``, then,
what else? a song in English. Not the first time I`ve hit such a
non-ID in random tuneacrossing; must be frequent. I.e., XEFZ,
Monterrey NL, 10/1 kW allegedly, but dominating the channel now rather
than KTNN or anything USelse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 93.1 & 95.1, Dec 12 circa 2030 UT, the dead air carriers
in $ tereo are still the same, peaking circa downtown Enid, and 1680
kHz Virtual DJ Radio continues to be JBA downtown but peaking circa US
81 & 412 junxion (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A. 8992 USB, Dec 12 at 0736, USAF crypto exercise in progress,
starting with SXSCDI.... Too late to wait for another clever tactical
handle to be uttered (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2325 monitoring: confirmed first SW
broadcast, Friday December 12 at 1325 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, JBA
S5/S6 direct, but following program was more audible.

Not confirmed Friday December 12 at 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.997, into UTwente, except for first few syllables: ``This is
Gl----``, cut and soon music fill, never to resume during the
semihour. I`ve notified IRRS HQ about the problem, so further repeats
can be OK. Next:

on life support)``

** U S A. 4840, Dec 12 at 0726, dead air again from WWCR-3, S9+30/45.
Muted show sked now is `Renewing Your Mind`. But remodulating at 0735
when `Insight for Living` is on, the latter one quieted when last
noted deadair. WWCR`s hours of dead air pale in comparison to Cuba`s,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5980, Dec 12 at 1330, no signal direct, not even R.
Martí; still trying to confirm or replace a report of R. Chaski, Perú
before 1400 into Arizona. At 1500 however a JBA carrier, presumably as
in EiBi, CRI Japanese at 1500-1600 only via site x. Need to check
OA4DFF SDR especially in daytime during hours when Chaski might be on:
11-02 per WRTH, or 10-15 & 22-0103 per Aoki. Nothing there at 1705 Dec
12. IIRC Lima has a very quick timeout. And it`s labeled 6.5-30 MHz,
presumably meaning not so good below 6.5.

By 1515 a few other lingersigs on 49m, JBA carriers: 6075 CNR1 vs
Taiwan; 6145 several China and Taiwan; 6180 some Chinese JBA, again
both Taiwan and Chinees possible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6251 approx., Dec 12 at 0732 tones repeating, sort of
musical but presumably ute; tuned in USB but can`t pinpoint it. Same
kind of thing encountered again at the late hour of 1516 when an AM
carrier put it on 6250.6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
