Hauser

** BRAZIL. 6180, June 13 at 0153, RNB/RNA into Pardinho SDR, no
English or Spanish but continuous Brazuguese, silly ballgame (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11780, June 14 at 0151, RNB/RNA VS into Georgia SDR, as
token English resumes after missing last night: about Festa São João
in Maranhão state, with songs, ``cultural bulletin for today``,
drumming. 0154 ID and same in Spanish, both with Ana Pimenta,
locutora. 0159 s/off message of 6180 & 11780 but they do not go off
immediately, 0200 another program starts in Brazuguese, but chop at
0202* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 382 MCW kHz, June 13 at 0614 UT, JBA carrier, in NDB
bandscan. Likely YPL, Pickle Lake ON, 500 watts as heard before but
tough under current summer/noise conditions. 346 MCW, YXL, SiouX
Lookout ON is JB identifiable, the #1 Canadian here. YPL may rate #2
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1670, June 13 circa 1930 UT, Virtual DJ Radio with rock
music, still going peaking at junxion of W OK Garriott & S Van Buren
in Enid. For months now, I`ve never found it absent when driving
around that area (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.5, June 13 circa 1930 UT, the rock music pirate still
going audible for a few blox around W OK Garriott & Cleveland in Enid.
Somewhat undermod and with hum. Never hear any announcements during my
brief chex (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [and non]. According to Jeff White on Wavescan, the
Overcomer Ministry says it will stop radio broadcasting on AM, FM and
SW at the end of June. Can no longer be sustained as contributions
have been dropping. It will continue on internet, and on a low-power
FM under construxion in Walterboro. However, I, gh, find no such CP or
existing station at the FCC LMS for that locality. 

This of course will open up a great many hours of `available` airtime
on the transmitters of WRMI, WWCR, WTWW, WBCQ, WINB, Channel 292
Germany, Spaceline Bulgaria, as well as several USA AM stations. I see
nothing whatever on the ministry website about this, rather still
plugging `expansion` to 300 kW Bulgarian transmitters. The Radio Log
is still dated April 2024 and also included these major AM stations:
WWVA 1170 and KXEL 1540, mostly late at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15500, June 13 at 2200, token English from SNR is only
S9/+10 direct VP in noise level instead of usual bigsig, and the
others even worse: 15520 JBA, 17715 S5/S8, 15390 JBA carrier; with
K-index of 6 and R1 blackouts per WWV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11784.992-, June 13 at 2158, JBA carrier direct so VOT not
off the air; at 2225 even into UTwente when measured, it is *very*
poor contrary to usual bigsig, S9/+15 in noise level but recognizable.
Due to this propagation situation:

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2299 monitoring: almost confirmed first SWBC,
Friday June 13 at 1300 on WRMI 15770, JBA, can`t even recognize theme,
but in next few minutes intonation seems gh-ish. Probably. 

Confirmed Friday June 13 at 2057 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.994+, S8/S9 and stormcrashy into UTwente.

Also confirmed Friday June 13 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 direct but
JBA undermodulated. At 2227 into Georgia SDR, S9+10 and undermodulated
vs OTHR clickery.

Also confirmed Friday June 13 at 2230 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.007-,
S7/S8 and stormnoisy into UTwente. Next:

Thanks for financial support this week from Richard Colgan, Austin TX,
via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com
and says, ``Keep on truckin'``

Or by MO or check on a US bank to: 
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, June 14 at 0123 & 0138 chex, this WTWW is off again so
I suppose won`t be on for WOR at 0300 UT Sat. 5920, however is on at
0147 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9930, June 13 at 2209, TOMBS from WTWW, this time the
transmitter with parasitic spurs plus/minus 12.9 kHz from center which
is S9+30/40; and also still on // but not synchronized 9980 WWCR
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, June 13 at 2355 into NH SDR:
3265, 5130, 6160, 9330 nothing, 7490 -79 Hz = 7489.921 with FKB only
S3/S4, VP in prop disturbance. After 0000 June 14, AAAWWW JBA on 9330
as well, as I listen to stream, beginning with ``when in doubt, start
pushing buttons``, so it`s a rerun; never mind.

Geomagnetic storms reaching the G2 level are expected.``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13845, June 13 at 2205, NO signal at all from WWCR-2,
supposed to last until 7 pm CT with DGS/TUN, off? Even with K=6, 9980
& 9350 are blasting in as usual. I see that in its program skeds, WWCR
*still* misconverts the difference between CT and UT as 6 hours
instead of 5! Go by CT which is correct as CDT (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, June 13 at 0620, R. Vanuatu music S5/S9.
Has been quite regular and reliable lately, not always relogged. No
distraxion from 9955 as WRMI is OFF (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9125.2 USB, June 13 at 0617, intermittent one side of
two-way in tonal language, maybe Chinese JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9340.43, June 13 at 0618, S6/S7 open carrier, as often
around here/then, but 9330 WBCQ is JBA only S4/S5, so unlikely out of
that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11525-11532 & 11545-11552 approx., big buzzers at S9+10,
relatively narrowband, what? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 100.3 FM, June 13 at 1957 UT, dead air in mono near
downtown Enid; idle RF feeder? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0208 UT June 14

Hauser

** BRAZIL. 11780, June 11 from 0140, I`m monitoring RNA/RNB via
various ZY, OA remotes, one of which times out in only 5 minutes; the
best signal from this or 6180 are not into the `local` `Brasila` one.
Because last night there was no token English at 0150, rather Spanish
and then some native language. But tonight hyper Brasuguese keeps
going past 0150 and 0200, I guess some stupid ballgame. So maybe
tomorrow night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15970, JBA carrier with flutter, and even weakers 16100 &
16160, June 11 at 2214 direct, i.e. jammers against Sound of Hope, as
listed on these three in a row in Aoki, among countless others (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. Hearing RHC`s Spanish DX program `En Contacto` is just about
impossible on SW, but it`s still being produced. I came across this
link to audio of the June 10 edition:
https://elradioescucha.net/2025/06/10/en-contacto-radio-habana-cuba-208/
Very well done, including upcoming ham DXpedition info. I pay especial
attention to the closing credits, namely guión = script by Luís Rafael
Milán Roldán as in QRZ.com: ``CO7GW Cuba flag Cuba, LUIS RAFAEL MILAN
ROLDAN, CALLE UNION, EDIF TRANSPORTE AGROPECUARIO APTO 11, E/ REEVES Y
CARR., CTAL, CAMAGUEY 70600 Cuba`` E/ probably means esquina, corner
or intersexion; CARR. = Highway, CTAL = Central? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1390, June 11 at 0654 UT, dead air from KCRC Enid instead
of stupidsportstalk; and at 0703, 1640 KZLS also dead air. The two are
normally // but not exactly in sync (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1670 kHz, June 11 at 2020 UT, for the record, Virtual DJ
Radio is still going, always audible in the vicinity of junxion of
US81 and 412 in Enid. Rock music with DJs naming themselves. Am I the
only one anywhere hearing this webcaster transmitted on AM or FM?
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Bandscan in downtown Enid by USPS Box 1684, finds
anomalies: 92.1 deadair in $ tereo; 101.7 deadair in mono, probably
idle RF feeders in parked vehicles. On 96.3 extremely distorted
mixture of two talk stations, never heard before. This is a block from
the almost-vacant Broadway Tower hosting some FM stations, but I can`t
figure out a mixing formula and have only the caradio, no second
receiver to search for matches.

Once further from downtown I am hearing on 92.1 as expected mono music
and at 2029 UT, ``America`s Best Country 92.1``; ad for an event June
28! for Independence Day in Bray, which is the next town a few miles
east of Marlow, ad for Legacy Bank, and ``KFXI, Country 92``. 

WTFDA FMDB shows ``KFXI Foxy 92 The Real Country Giant`` which may
well also be correct, as any station does not necessarily have a
certain single slogan engraved in stone and no others, but variations
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. My last DTV set-top-box converter is back in service.
More than a week ago there was a power glitch, after which it refused
to turn back on -- or rather its eye did change from red to blue, but
no output into the TV set. Finally after multiple reboots it`s back,
until the next power failure. So with somewhat tropo enhancement I do
a mostly-UHF bandscan June 11 at 0337 UT. RF 28, virtual 34 from Tulsa
market, KTPX-TV Okmulgee, is decoding; several BAD signals achieve at
least a little bar on RF: 36, 34, 31, 26, 22, 21, 20, 14. And Enid`s
only local TV, K17JN-D on RF 17 is OFF AGAIN, a.k.a. K17JI-D mis-ID.
K17JN-D is licensed to Clarion Broadcasting Group, Inc., admittedly
closely allied to 3ABN, and with three other low-power relays in OK.

I much prefer this Zenith receiver rather than DTV sets with built-in
tuners which are user/DXer-unfriendly. Why the hell should I have to
scan for signals rather than manually tune easily to each channel no
matter temporarily? how weak?? Of course these were handed out free at
the big DTV conversion; I got a few but should have got more, at least
in reserve. Wonder if they still be available, preferably new/unused
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 & 15500, both S9+20/30 direct, 15520 S9+10/20 and
15390 only S9 = noise level, token English from SNR, Wed June 11 at
2200 joining for //, opening with Sinatra`s `New York, New York`,
intro feature about Madrid`s yearly book fair, NY being the theme;
interview with two women officials, as theme of fair is: NY. BTW, USA
is the #2 Spanish-speaking country in the world, i.e. must be more
than España with only 48.35 total megapeople, after #1 México 129.7.
Right into this, skipping any news, who cares? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.006+, June 11 at 2157, VOT English not off the air
but JBA direct S9/+10 with IS & ID. At 2226 into UTwente when
measured, S9+30/40 music and 2230 some talk feature, music. 2246
multi-lingual ID filler reel, music. 2252 TRTVOTVorld promo. 2253
s/off as if 17620 at 1230, awry at Ankara, 2254 IS to almost 2256*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2298 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
June 10 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+30 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed Tuesday June 10 from 2331 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.002+, S9+10 into UTwente. 

Also confirmed Wednesday June 11 from 1931 on SW Radio, Germany
6160.001+ S9/+10 and 3975.002+ S9+5/10 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday June 11 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -77 Hz =
7489.923, S8 into Maryland SDR. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7780, June 11 at 0632, JBA signal, sounds like TOMBS,
probably like slightly stronger 7730. WRMI 7780 is normally very
silent long before this hour. But the current skedgrid does show
WRMI-11 7780 from 00 to 11 including Overcomer block 06-08. With TOMBS
allegedly about to quit radio broadcasts, it would be interesting to
calculate the total number of weekly transmitter-hours on WRMI, but
DOW, especially weekend variations difficultize that (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) 

** U S A. 780, June 11 at 0639 UT, just before very reliable
`StarDate` time 0640 on WBBM Chicago, weather forecast for low of 33,
high of 90. 33?? in June, almost summer? NWS shows the June 11 low at
Midway was axually 64.9 F at 0853 & 1053 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11485-11538 approx., June 11 at 2208, wideband
multi-tone, multi-carriers beating against each other, S9+20; like
often heard circa 17450 and some other places, but not before in this
range which could QRM broadcasters. What is this? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 0001 UT June 12

** CANADA. 6754 USB, June 10 at 0632, Trenton Military not off the
air, Split VOLMET at the moment, poor signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, June 10 at 0631, JBA signal presumed pirate
Station YHWH, in another late run (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA.  Incredibly, this entry is still in the WTFDA FM Database
as of June 10, 2025:

``K226BR KIMY 93.9 93.1 ENID OK USA 0.25 0.25 0.0 0.0 36-23-48
97-52-38 SOUTHERN GOSPEL THE GOSPEL STATION 156415``

IT HAS BEEN GONE FOR OVER 12 YEARS, AS I ORIGINALLY NOTED ON May 27,
2013:

``93.1 K226BR, the one which provided
straw-sucking-on-almost-empty-cup sounds, has been off for a few weeks
now (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``  

I have occasionally mentioned its absence further once every year or
two. I don`t know whether it still be licensed, but the fact that it
is LONG GONE ought to be noted. 73, (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

The FCC seems to disagree:
https://transition.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/fmq?call=k226br&filenumber=&state=&city=&freq=88.1&fre2=107.9&serv=&status=&facid=&asrn=&class=&list=0&ThisTab=Results+to+This+Page%2FTab&dist=&dlat2=&mlat2=&slat2=&NS=N&dlon2=&mlon2=&slon2=&EW=W&size=9
(Brian Beezley, K6STI, WTFDA FMDX-NA iog)

Despite what's happening on-air, it looks like the FCC granted
the renewal of its license on May 20, 2021. -- (Rick Lewis, ibid.)

``Added to the record for K226BR... ``This station noted OFF multiple
times since 2013`` - That should help clarify things a little. Mike```
Bugaj, WTFDA.

A little; altho I have obviously not monitored 93.1, 24/7 for 12+
years, I should be extremely surprised if anyone could prove it were
*ever* on the air. I wonder if its ex-primary KIMY 93.9 Watonga know
of the situation (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. MORE ENID FM UPDATES: This station still has not yet gone
on the air, and the Part 15 OG&E downtown on 95.1 has remained off:
``KOKJ-LP 95.1 ENID OK USA 0.1 0.1 29.0 29.0 36-24-13 97-52-40
788786``

This one has changed to relay 99.9 as below, no longer KLVV, several
months ago as I reported at the time: 

``K253BC KLVV 88.7 98.5 ENID OK USA 0.25 0.25 0.0 0.0 36-28-3897-58-14
CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN MY PRAISE FM 51936``

``KVBN-LP 99.9 ENID OK USA 0.075 0.0 34.0 0.0 36-25-54 97-50-16
RELIGIOUS TEACHING 194113``
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 104.7, June 10 at 0504 UT, KQSN Ponca City, dead air in
$ tereo again - only result of yet another fruitless Es FM DX bandscan
prompted by some recent paths into OK on DXMAP. Maybe just for an
automated ToH newshole? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, June 10 at 1423, TOMBS via WWCR still
blasting S9+40. However, big news from Wavescan is that the BS
ministry is about to quit SW; more on the next WS. This may have a
drastic effect on most private US SW stations depending on that cash
cow, if they can stay on the air at all, reducing other programming
hours? But they will no longer be so embarrassed or subject to
ridicule.

At 2214 direct, TOMBS on WTWW 9930, S9+20/30 and exactly 10 seconds
later on WWCR 9980, S9+50; ``the end is near`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) 

** TURKEY. 11785, June 10 at 2206 direct, and 2225 via UTwente, VOT
English not on the air, nor on 11780, 11790, 9875. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2298 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday June 10 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into S Texas remote. 

Also confirmed Tuesday June 10 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday June 10 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, S9 but JBA
direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday June 10 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia
1322.994+, S7.5 into UTwente. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;
