** CANADA. 351 MCW kHz, Feb 8 at 0750 UT, dash and YKQ, only somewhat
unusual, 500 watt NDB from Waskaganish QC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 13570, Feb 8 at 0356, weak in English, not Spanish and not
// 9820 so not R. Martí; rather CRI in English to where else? Siberia,
per EiBi, from Xian site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 9790, Feb 8 at 0353, CRI English S9+40/50 and somewhat
undermod via CUBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9490, UT Sun Feb 8 at 0348, Spanish at S9+20/30
about Cuban history, but audio craps out and stix and repeats briefly,
then OK. Since R. República is not scheduled now, I ponder whether RHC
could have been smart enough to move onto its frequency? Naaah, too
busy broadcasting S9+20/30 of dead air on 9710; and S9+20 of windhowl
only on 11760; while 6000 is off. Back on 9490 at 0358, ``La Cuba que
Perdida[?]``. R. República ID with websites, and SW sked as: lunes a
jueves 9-10 pm, viernes a domingo 9-11 pm; and cut off at 0359* UT.
Translated from EST to UT days and times: Tue-Fri 02-03, Sat-Mon
02-04. WRMI skedgrid at the very end shows relays via Issoudun,
France, as of B24?! including R. República, at 02-03 UT on 9490 on
Sat/Sun/Mon only! Now what will happen March 8 with the imposition of
foolish DST in USA and consequently in the Running Dog of Yankee
Imperialism? Everything one UT hour earlier? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 9755, Feb 8 at 0352, La Voz Alegre, with phone or other
contact numbers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALAYSIA. 11885, Feb 8 circa 1530 JBA signal direct; at 1618 into
KFS NW antenna, S9+15 distorted music and 1620 Indonesian? = Malay
talk, mentions UNESCO, certainly not Vietnam in English as scheduled.
More music. Further test of new transmitter. Zach Liangas reported at
1637: ``Corr Rtm network feed change -- Heard now 16+ z the feeds are
now changed to 11885 $ abah v FM and 15295 Nasional FM. The *11885* khz
feed was a bit garbled with strong signal on the SW Au kSDR and
partially with low audio. !!Stop missing the forest for the trees,
Zacharias Liangas, Radio worker`` More of my monitoring thru KFS: 1700
``don`t be greedy`` PSA in English, ID as Sabah V FM, 92.7 in Kota
Kinabalu, ``experience variety``. Not sure of the word/letter between
Sabah and FM, but WRTH 2026 page 336 shows 92.7 in K.K. as Sabah VFM.
1755 UT still going long after local midnight, songs, 1759 PSA about
energy, food, exercise, ``experience variety, Sabah VFM`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 AM, Feb 8 at 0339, pirate music S9+10/20
direct. Strangely enough, no reports of this in HFU, rather nothing
after WDOG on 6925 USB from 0047 to 0134*. Also an open carrier on
6938, pirate or ute? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, Feb 8 at 0340, pirate rock music, S9+10
direct. unIDs in HFU from 0334, but with SSTV labeled Scottie 2:

** ROMANIA. 9720, Feb 8 at 0350, Spanish, and Romanian song, from RRI,
S9+20/30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9660.008, Sun Feb 8 at 1740, VOT English S9+25/30 into
UTwente, news by unfamiliar M voice with accent, and a bit distorted.
1741 into Cemre with her ``belovèd`` Letterbox: 1) Jamie Evans, K24GBB
[sic, can`t find a similar ham call], Georgia; needs Pmail address for
QSL. 2) Patrick Travers, Sheffield, England. 3) Jayanta
Chakraborty/Chakrabarty [I`m always confused about spelling and so is
he: spelt both ways on a single dxindia post! No doubt there is no
confusion in Bengali: ``Chakraborty Name Meaning Indian (West Bengal)
and Bangladeshi: Brahmin name, čokroborti in Bengali, from Sanskrit
čakravartī 'emperor', which means literally 'wheels rolling';
metaphorically, it denotes a ruler whose chariot wheels roll
everywhere without obstruction (čakra 'wheel' + vart- 'to roll').``],
has trouble hearing morning bc at 0400 on 6125, 7285 so listened to
live stream. 4) David Govan?, NB, Canada, heard Turkish at 21 on 5980.
5) Christian Holberg, Germany, German at 1830 on 5945. At 1751: 6)
finally, Anatoly Klepov, Moscow, incredibly detailed; he reports for
QSL every month. 1753 ending, QSL or eQSL available by preference.
