** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Tue Dec 30 at 2309, RAE via WRMI, VG direct
in `Atualidade DX` program in Portuguese, already underway, something
about Malawi; 2310 multi-lingual ID reel; 2311 DX news compiled by
Arnaldo Slaen including: Sked of WMR Denmark; Bangladesh on 4750 -
hasn`t that been gone almost a year? Still in Aoki, not EiBi or WRTH;
Vietnam Democracy Radio, 9670 via Paochung [Taiwan], 1230-1258 100 kW;
7515 Guam with Living Water Ministry in Korean, missed time, but Aoki
& EiBi show that only on 9900 at 1500-1600 via unknown site. BSKSA
Riyadh on 15120 at 09-11 with 500 kW --!? AFAIK it`s totally gone from
SW, even the Yemen service. R. Progreso, Cuba 4765 until 0400* -
almost correct, in `winter` until nominal 0500* when it`s not AWOL. R.
Omdurman, Sudão, 100 kW on 7200 heard in SAm from 0400 on 7200! This
has been gone from SW for a long time, or was it 7205? Some of these
wrong items seem familiar; I suspect they are rerunning very old
reports/show! Then something about the TELAM news agency in a new?
deal? with R. Nacional in Argentina. Not clear what this is about but
R. Nacional has a bunch of UNDATED stories about the Milei government
vs TELAM! English translations offered:

** CUBA. 13650, Dec 30 at 2303, S9+25 of dead air instead of fill
music instead of Portuguese from CRI relay. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba, and CRI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PHILIPPINES. 12055, Dec 30 at 2302, music, 2307 talk in tonal SE
Asian language, somewhat stronger than adjacent 12050 WEWN. Yes, EiBi
shows FEBC in Shan spoken by 3 megaMyanmarians, along with a string of
other obscure languages until 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9930, Dec 30 at 2259, TOMBS somewhat
distorted S9+40 via WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 & 17755, Dec 30 at 2333, just a trace visible but not
audible from REE into Georgia SDR; fortunately 9690 is still VG for us
direct, and 12030 sufficient, even tho tokENglish during this hour on
Dec 31 is expected to be pre-empted by New Year celebrations (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Dec 30 at 2300, JBA carrier direct, unlikely
VOT but Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, supposedly not starting until 2310. By
2337 no signal into Georgia SDR, and only Chinese into UTwente; while
accidentalternate 9610 is only JBA, presumably Mongolian on CNR8 from
Beijing site. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2327 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
December 30 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323v, S9 into UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday December 31 at 0030 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, 3975, S9/+20 into Bedford UK SDR, better than UTwente, too
close, S7/S9.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday December 31 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, no
signal into Georgia SDR, too close, but S9+12 into N9AZZ Illinois SDR.
Next:

2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW;

** U S A. 9330, Dec 30 at 2308, WLCR/WBCQ Portuguese blasting in again
at S9+35/40, evidently on wrong beam thisaway instead of Brasilward.
Altho the rotable antenna can be pointed in any direxion, only three
azimuths are in use per WLCR website, and only two languages! 170
degrees in Portuguese to Brazil at 22-05; 253 degrees in English to
USA at 05-17, and 57 degrees in English to UK at 17-22, Yet HFCC B25
https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B25&broadc=BCQ
shows certain hours in Spanish, German, Arabic, some other azimuths
and even powers, not always 500 kW but some at 250. And some imaginary
relays via Bulgaria on 13840, 13850 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re my 990 KWAM Memphis TN log: ``Hi Glenn, The KWAM tower is
across the river in Arkansas, justifying the K call. 73, Eike
[Bierwirth], Birmingham, AL``. OK, but there are lots of
``unjustified`` K/W calls on the wrong side of a river (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
