 ** ANGUILLA. 28347 USB, March 9 at 2327, VP2EWE calling QRZ, quick contest contacts. QRZ.com: ``VP2EWE Anguilla flag Anguilla, Janusz Wegrzyn, Welches, Poland, see https://vp2.dxpeditions.org/ 15,690 QSOs logged between 2026-03-04 00:24Z and 2026-03-10 00:58Z`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Mon Mar 9 at 2259, WRMI IS & IDs leading up to ToH programming, then 2300 RAE relay opens in Chinese. But at 2340 check it`s JBM at S9+25/30 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9710, March 9 at 0442, S9+10/20 of dead air; and 11760, at 0444, S9+30 of DA plus windhowl. Another check at 0623: 9710 S9 DA, 11760 S9+25 DA+howl, from RHC, where something is always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 11610, March 9 at 1527, NHK IS at S5, prior to Hindi at 1530-1550 and after Bengali at 1500-1520, per EiBi - does Yamata stay on for the entire 10-minute break? Both 300 kW due west at 270 degrees, but HFCC shows Bengali at 1500-1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 11825, March 9 at 0446, soul music S9+10/20, then devotional in American English about Jesus, ``making a difference in Africa``. It`s MWV with African Pathways Radio during this hour for central Africa at 295 degrees so more or less thisaway beyond. I assume produced in Franklin TN as on the last line of page 636 of WRTH 2026 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 6185-, UT Mon March 9 at 0430, ID as ``Cultura México, señal internacional de Radio Educación`` and `Sintonía Libre`, a DX/media show, instead of `La Hora Nacional` supposedly carried by all XE stations, especially government ones, Sundays at 10 pm (and which I did confirm at 0454 on XERF 1570). Two YLs intro show, about ``la mejor de las telecomunicaciones`, with or about Solano, radio in Costa Rica, Paraguay with Daniel García Gómez; red social, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 28415 USB, March 9 at 2345, XE1ADY, quick contacts, has trouble copying callsigns, high-pitched voice, child or YL? QRZ.com: ``XE1ADY Mexico flag Mexico, WhatsApp 5533753863, YUDIANA "YUDY" TORRES CLEMENTE, GARDENIA L1 MZ13 COL.MINAS PALACIO, Naucalpan estado de México, EM 53696, Mexico`` and ``Young Ladies WWA 2026 from Mar 09 to Mar 15, 2026`` -- WWA means World Wide Award, and prompted by International Women`s Day March 8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 9025 AM, March 9 at 1529, S5 introducing JFK and a few words from his speech. Such a time on workdays is prime for this `presidential pirate`. Someone should TDOA/DF it, as exposing its source should not be a problem if it be a government contractor, not subject to FCC enforcement. UDXF frequency list page 723 shows on 9025 numerous USAF stations at home and abroad, but no mention of this (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 93.7, March 9 circa 2045 UT, KSPI-FM Stillwater missing in routine bandscan while driving around Enid. Not to be confused with 94.3 translator of 780 KSPI (AM) which is occasionally marginally audible here (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A. 379 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0632 UT, RU, 25-watt NDB at RUssellvillE AR which lost its final E and never got it back (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 397 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0644 UT, JE, 25-watt NDB `Algoa`, JeffErson City MO, alternating/mixing with 395 CA, 25-watt NDB `Harvs`, Newton KS, as I am axually tuned to 395 USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 410 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0648 UT, BA, 25-watt NDB `Clifs`, Columbus IN; rarely audible vs noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2337 monitoring: also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.997, S7.5/8 into UTwente. Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream. Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2234 the 2230 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 3975.001+, S8/9+5 into UTwente. Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2300 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/15 into Knoxville remote; ex-0000 in standard season. Not confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, S9+15/20 of dead air into Knoxville. I notified Jeff White by 2340, and at 2350 started IS & ID loops, ``regular programming resumes at top of the hour``. Which it does at 2400 with `Wavescan`. Unclear if a mistake or a seasonal change, since 9455 is still on the System D schedule from 2300 including WOR at 2330 Sunday. The overall skedgrid page is now dated March 8, but individual blox of it are not necessarily updated! On Monday March 9, 9455 was signing on at 2259. Confirmed UT Monday March 9 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into Knoxville SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday March 9 after 0100 on Global Community Radio 1 webcast. Also confirmed UT Monday March 9 from 0309 the 0300v on Area 51 webcast, as preceding rock music show, not JL this week, ran over, despite being chopped off SW WBCQ 5130 at 0300 sharp. Also confirmed Monday March 9 at 2030 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 3975.001-, S8/9+5 into UTwente. Next: 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 1400 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 2100 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323; 0030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 2030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160?; 2330 UT Thursday WRMI 5950 to NNW [NEW]. Thanks this week to Peter Robinson, Preston UK, for a contribution via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to: woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1080, March 9 at 0502 UT, huge deadair signal obviously KRLD Dallas, finally comes to life at 0506 as ``NewsRadio 1080, 24-hour breaking news center``. Well, I`ve got some broken news for you: CBS news on the hour was suppressed, and you didn`t notice? During that it also seemed the IBOC noise peaking on 1067 & 1093 was missing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1090, March 10 at 0013-0017 UT, weak talk signal via E/W longwire, no change at all circa 0015, which is local sunset time for March at KAAY Little Rock, and signal ought to drop out here, but only if there be one in the first place. I have been trying to confirm its new operation. There is a SAH between two weak signals of 76/minute, or 1.27 Hz. But I don`t see any clear 1.3 Hz differences between likely 1090 stations at https://mwlist.org/mwoffset.php?khz=1090 -- such as KAAY, KEXS, KMXA, XEAU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1290, March 9 at 0459 UT, ad for upgrading kitchens with a 309 area code, and fading during ID, WIRL, Peoria IL; U4 5/5 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1430 kHz, March 9 at 0456 UT plugging an April arts event at Cathedral high school in Houston, so KSHJ, U4 5/1 kW; altho address in San Antonio. I assume call alludes to ``sacred heart of Jesus`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0258 UT March 10 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
