 ** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, Jan 2 at 0750, no signals from RNA for token English; both off, or degraded prop? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9710, Jan 2 at 0451, S7/S9 of dead air from RHC, and 6000 is off the air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ETHIOPIA. 6110, Jan 2 at 0445, S7/S9 of dead air direct. Only thing sked at this time is R. Fana, starting at 0255 or 0300. Still there past 0500 into Georgia SDR. Sunrise at Āddīs Ābebā was 0341 UT today, so 100 kW could still be propagating for a while longer. Something`s egregious in Ethiopia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 21580, Jan 2 at 1604, JBA signal, must be RFI in Hausa this hour, the OSOB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1680, Jan 2 circa 2100 UT, Virtual DJ Radio relay from unknown site in S central Enid is still going and audible noisily with pop music as far as downtown central Enid. Another week, another month, another year. Also the two low-power deadairs in $ tereo circa downtown on 93.1 and 95.1 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6125, Jan 2 at 0446 check direct whether VOT be on air for English - familiar segment theme, but not in English! Sounds like Turkish. What about // 7285? NO signal there. Both were missing last night. The Turkish language frequency now is 9650, and bingo, there it is weaker // 6125, so the WRONG LANGUAGE is going out on 6125! Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Final check at 0457 into Georgia SDR, 6125 is off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. With noise level down to *only* S5/S6 in this LW+ part of the spectrum, a few less usual ND beacons are audiblized, Jan 2 at 0729-0734 UT in MCW: 251, AM, Amarillo TX 255, SW, Stillwater OK - NO signal, must be off again 272, JBA carrier; as I noted Dec 2 from RNA list, possibilities: MI, IL, TX, IL, WI, TX, AK, Lord Howe Island 338, RYN, Tucson AZ 397, JBA carrier, most likely JE, JeffErson City MO 426, UV, Oxford MS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

Meanwhile, Greg Hardison suggests: ``Glenn: — Seemingly hearing your het on 810.57, as close as I can nail it on the Orem [Utah] SDR, staying steady against the "KSFO" effluence of fascist spew. Any semblance of associated audio seems to be musical in nature, as opposed to spoken word. Of course, tho', nothing strong enough to be of any more use. KXOI [Crane TX] is certainly a viable theory, but the Lubbock SDR is offline, and if anything, there's a hi-het against WHB on the Austin SDR, that seems to be lower in freq than 810.57, with NO discernable audio — the Austin het could even be imaginary on my part; it is that measly. "Conclusion", as it were: I still have my suspicions about KBHB Sturgis being somehow involved — for what that may be worth. KBHB featuring pop-country mx on their webstream tonight. 73z, for a judicious 2026, The other G H`` This thing has been mystifying since last February.

Tnx, Tim. A deep dig into their website finally finds what it stand for rather cumbersomely: ``El Sembrador Nueva Evangelización`` Sembrador = Sower (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11472-11522 approx., Jan 2 at 1606, multi-carrier, multi-tones beating against each other, peaking S9 amid. This may or may not be pertinent to it, since never IDed: Via Benn Kobb, FCC has informed `experimental` stations such as WL2XEE that they must start IDing in clear AM voice or Morse Code, following complaints of QRM from other spectrum users; changing policy which had ``waived`` ID requirements: ``Station ID is mentioned on both pages 1 and 2 of this letter. https://apps.fcc.gov/els/GetAtt.html?id=389975&x= I will also cover this in my next Experimental Radio News, coming Real Soon Now. BK`` Viz.: ``Station identification – unless specifically exempted by the terms of the station authorization, an experimental radio station shall transmit its assigned call sign at the end of each complete transmission at least once every thirty minutes in clear voice or Morse code, with all digital encoding and digital modulation disabled during station identification`` - still, listening to such noise for 30+ minutes to catch an ID would be a task. Address in NYC, but where exactly is WL2XEE? FCC LMS search can`t find it. Broad search leads to: https://groups.io/g/radiofromaroundtheworld/topics Almost all of this is Richard Clifford, reposting stuff from our WOR iogroup to 15 members.
