about a red = net. QRZ.com: ``CE7FPL Chile flag Chile, OSCAR WERNER,

Montt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Also some unID SS on 28435, 28510 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH. 15245.24, May 2 at 1350, NK music is JBA, on signature
skewed frequency of VOK: this hour in English for Europe. No
comparison to bigsig from CNR1 jammer on 15340 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 21565, May 2 at 1347 JBA carrier direct is the OSOB.
EiBi shows nothing but BBC in English to Indonesia at 12-14. Another
success for near-antipodal Talata (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, May 1 at 2221 wild percussion partially
demodulated by fifth harmonic of KCRC (AM) 1390 Enid. At 2233* a local
power failure hits home, not KCRC. Surprise, no storming now. I don`t
have battery backup ready to go on the NRD-545, so hook up the DX-398
to longwire and keep listening to more pirate music; 2324 SSTV, outro
2325 as ``one of my old selfies``, more music. Many reports here as
Thunder Chicken Radio with visuals:

Ower power outage turned out to last a full hectominute until finally
back on at *2413 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, May 1 at 2202, REE S9+20 with navigational warning in
English, merely a clip during Spanish ``Así suenan siete días en Radio
Exterior de España`` as if it`s Friday there must be no English. Also
S9+20/30 on 15500, and S9/+10 and noisy deadair on 17715, no signal on
15390. The other 15s are the SSOB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, May 1 at 2159, VOT not off the air, but
undermodulated, S9+10 direct, s/on as if it`s 1230 on 17720;
something`s awry at Ankara. And with heavy splash from 11780 Brasil,
while 11790, 11795 and 11800 continue to be invitingly open (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2345 monitoring: Also confirmed
Friday May 1 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 undermodulated as usual on
this outlet.

Missed checking 2230 May 1 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975 due to power
outage so no computer operating, no remote tuning.

Also confirmed UT Saturday May 2 at 0305-0334 on WTWW 5085, S9+10/20
into Maryland SDR. WTWW was on air more than an hour earlier with T2P
which seems to happen only on Friday evenings. A rough start: 0300
``The Ministry of...`` World of Radio, but cut to dead air. 0303
another ID. 0305 restart WOR and plays to conclusion.

Confirmed not the Saturday 1430 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 6160, since
day-by-day skeds show pre-emption on May 2 and probably future first
Saturdays for Texas Radio SW; music heard at 1445 check into UTwente.

slightly more to the SSW; night pattern with a notch to the SW, but
major lobe closer to south like us. Last heard Feb 24. The SW notch
would be to protect ND KPOF Denver, not Wichita. The towns are in E

** SPAIN. Re 17715 three days of dead air and other REE anomalies, Ken
Zichi replies:

``Indeed, and last season when 9690 was absent for months at a time
they even tried to 'gas-light' me claiming it WAS on the air and people
were reporting it. When I 'called them out' and said that someone at
Noblejas was not being straight with them, it got suspiciously quiet.
I keep coming back to the 'truism': "If you don't broadcast, people
won't listen" ..... I mean, isn't that obvious? 73 //Ken Z``

** U S A. Re: "1230 kHz, Apr 30 at 0705 UT, weather but no clue to
location, and ID sounds like KXJB? on 98.9 FM. The WTFDA FM Database
is offline as I want to search for a match, so I look thru all 150 US
stations on 1230 in the NRC AM Log, no // 98.9 shown until almost the
end, WXCO Wausau WI, with W255DN, TLK format. Later WTFDA FMDB is
back, and makes exactly the same single hit. So maybe. WBBZ Ponca City
OK is far enough not to own 1230 at night, but close enough usually to
be in the mix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)"

``Possibly KFJB? Their translator is on 93.9. 73 Tim Hall``

{some AI butts in with this along with above email: ``Suggested reply:
Tim, Good point on KFJB. I'll check that translator frequency. Glenn``
GO AWAY! I don`t want or need your suggestions!!! -- the real Glenn}

KFJB indeed is a close fuzzy match to the call I heard; however don`t
see how I could have taken 93.9 for 98.9. Possibly in the graveyard
pilelup these were parts of two different stations. KFJB is in
Marshalltown IA.

1230, I try again May 1 at 0640 UT: Iowa is mentioned and ad? for
Heartland something, State? Broad search does find some connexions
between Marshalltown and Heartland entities, but that probably applies
to many other locations. Then C2CAM which would not be KFJB, listed on
Red Eye Radio instead (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9790, Apr 30 at 0411, S9 dead air, must be CRI relay
scheduled 04-05 in Cantonese to N America west. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Apr 30 at 0415, RHC S9+25/30 in Kriyol, yet after
midnight in Haiti on EDT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

shows BBC Somali M-F at 0400-0430. I always have a hard time
recognizing Somali; are there obvious keywords? HFCC shows 250 kW at 0
degrees, which I think means non-direxional rather than due north
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 17530, Apr 30 at 0427, kid? solo with harmonious choral
accompaniment, smax of Christianity, 0429-0430+ YL Chinese
announcement -- yes, it`s MWV in Chinese this hour, at 55 degrees
nowhere near thisaway, but with T/E propagational advantage (Glenn

** MALI. 5995, Apr 30 at 0601, ORTM not off the air, S7/S9 direct of
repetitive music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2345)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9820 USB, April 30 at 0410 S9+20 of pirate music,
hard to believe only a pirate, but within seconds it stops, after
saying something like ``thanks for tuning in``. It`s Mix Radio
International, which has been showing up on lots of frequencies beyond
the Pirate Band. Tony Pavick had tipped this at 0233 on the WOR iog:
``Mix Radio International is up and perking on 9820 USB tonite``. No
sign of Brasil 9818.6v lately, and Rudolf Grimm, SP, had reported Apr
30 to HCDX: ``9820 kHz: Radio Nove de Julho, São Paulo SP – April 26
at 1513. No signal`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2345)

** OKLAHOMA. 1390, Apr 30 at 0659 UT, dead air from local KCRC Enid; I
quickly check // 1640 KZLS, but by now an ID for ``WWLS FM, The Sports
Animal``. That`s the wrong ID normally aired on WKY 930 and
KWPN 640. NRC AM Log shows those are with ESPN, while KCRC/KZLS are
with Fox Sports Radio. Is it possible, or unusual for anyOkie to be
affiliated with both major national sports nets? (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715, April 30 at 1913 and 2209 chex, for the third day in
a row nothing but dead air on REE`s South American frequency, whenever
checked during its entire span, while 15500 for North America remains
VG and 15520 for ME also modulating, while 15390 for Africa remains
absent. Someone`s not paying attention at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WORLD OF RADIO 2345)

** TURKEY. 9770, April 30 at 0412, S7/S9 rock music. Nevertheless, per
EiBi it`s VOT in Turkish at 04-06 to Europe, and HFCC shows 300 kW,
310 degrees so also USward. At 0600 switches to 13635 only 250 kW at
same azimuth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

5000/136 watts, non-direxional but `2 modes`, whatever that mean.

** ITALY. 18140 USB, April 28 at 2218, IZ8DEP, Alfredo, S of Rome,
working W7SV and pileup of US stations. QRZ.com: ``IZ8DEP Italy flag
Italy, ALFREDO SCARPA, VIA PADRETERNO, 25, MARANO DI NAPOLI, IT 80016,
Italy`` - page full of nothing but equipment photos, especially coils
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 5140 USB, Wed Apr 29 at *1400, weekly emergency
net, tough copy with noise level S8 about the same as NCS WSHM692,
which is Breanna in Edmond. Usual opening procedure and 1402 roll

** PORTUGAL. 18137 USB, April 28 at 2214, Luis, CT1### working W7TJ,
K6ES et al., then nothing until 2217. Could not copy his whole call.
Found several contacts in DX Heat matching, from CT1ESO. QRZ.com:
``CT1ESO Portugal flag Portugal, LUIS GOMES, rua estreitinha s/n monte
dos calvinhos hortas, 8900-108 V.R.ST.ANTONIO, Portugal`` - Just
before this, found zero signals on 28, 24 and 21 MHz hambands, but
some skip on 27 MHz CB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715, Apr 28 at 2200, S8/S9 of dead air direct in token
French on Tuesday from REE; while 15500 & 15520 are modulating
normally. 17715 remains DA at 2208, 2222, and also into Bonaire
S7/9+10 at 2337. Someone`s nonawake at Noblejas. It`s really
incredible how many SW stations let this happen - they don`t care
enough to monitor themselves constantly, not even by silence-sensor
alarms!

JRX in Paraíba already reported earlier: ``17715. Tue, April 28, 2026.
1901-1920, Radio Exterior de España, Noblejas-E, in Spanish to SAm.
Very good signal, S9 +30, dead air, zero modulation! Since 1829 UT
when I tuned for the first time! Parallel on 15390nob, out; 15500nob,
woman and men announcers hablando de fútbol, 45543; 15520nob,
3~45543``

And later, 17715 still DA April 29, as Wolfgang Büschel reports: ``REE
Madrid, live coverage, football game tonight from 19-21 UT Atlético
Madrid vv Arsenal London England. At 2005 UT on 15500 S=9+10dB in
Europe, 15520 kHz S=9+35dB much powerful signal, and 17715.014 kHz
EMPTY CARRIER noted at S=9+25dB signal level at 2009 UT, no football
game live transmission audio. 15390 alternate frq channel - empty``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715, April 29 at 2157, REE still dead air at S9+20/30
direct, while 15500 is VG and also 15520 manage to modulate, wrapping
up coverage of stupid ballgame, 2200 timesignal and usual PSA about
voting by mail before May 17 in Andalucía; 2201 opening token English
since it`s Wednesday, ``live`` [not], usual pair Alba and Daniel with
his especially heavy accent which is tiring to listen to even if
comprehensible. They talk at breakneck pace with only one hour a week,
perhaps to flaunt their fluency. Preview topics, a rugby legend,
living with HIV, historic blackout a year ago in Spain & Portugal;
2203 news leads with crisis in housing prices. I`m exhausted already,
hi. 2213 check now about Wash hotel shooting (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Apr 28 at 2157, VOT not off the air with IS, splash
from 11780 Brasil, HSNL and S9+10 direct, 2200 opening English, too
poor to keep listening. Still refuses to shift even another 5 kHz away
from RNA to 11790 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 11785, Apr 29 at 2157, 2159, 2208, 2210 chex, no
signal from VOT English direct, nor on 9875. Into UTwente at 2239,
still no 11785, algo on 9875 but JBA too weak for VOT, vs ACI from
9880 which is CRI Esperanto via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN, for S
America. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2344 monitoring: not confirmed
Tuesday April 23 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, because it`s OFF the air.

Confirmed Tuesday April 23 at 2330 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975.002-, S9+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday April 29 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+30 into
Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday April 29 from 1930.7 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, 6160.000+ S9+35 and 3975.001+ S9/+10 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday April 29 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490-, S6/S7 into
Georgia SDR, some gospelhuxter, TOMBS? chopped off at 2059 for promo
and ID, then WOR. Certainly not `Pirate Joe Extravaganzo` who has been
gone from Wed 20-21 UT for months, but still on the websked!

Also confirmed Wednesday April 29 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/30 into
Georgia SDR, after a bit of `Hard Day`s Night` at 2329. Next:

1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;

** U S A. 9955, Apr 28 at 2203, this WRMI is OFF, while 8 and 9 hours
earlier it was merely dead air, but now, no air. Still audible on
9395, 15770, 17790. Nothing about this on WRMI FB, where anomalies are
sometimes explained, rather than on own website! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 15770, Apr 29 at 1545, WRMI with lugubrious Korean talk,
artificially slowed down, certainly not `Truth 2 Ponder` as on
skedgrid this hour for System F. S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR, and not
// 9395, JBA 7730 or 9955 off. Might be multilingual SMTV, but not
their format to go on and on like this; mentioning `Maria` a few times
so maybe an RCC gospel huxter? 1557 suddenly speeds up to normal pace,
but quick cut to music; 1559 ID, 1600 four tones and `Hello World
Radio` as sked, a DJ show mostly music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9930, Apr 29 at 1441, dead air from TOMBS on WTWW, only S9
direct; by next check 1515 is modulating (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9750/9965, Apr 29 at 2209, approx. range of WTWW splatter
out of 9930 which is distorted and overmodulated with TOMBS, S9+50
direct. Some QRM to 9955 WRMI, but worst roughly between 9800 and 9950
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 760, Apr 29 at 0643 UT, WJR Detroit has QRM from another
talk station, almost equal strength, and religious. Just about has to
be, by format, proximity, direxionality, KCCV Overland Park KS, but
site across in MO; 200 watt night pattern favors WSW with null toward
WJR; 6000 watt day pattern NE/SW, Enid barely within fringe contour.
Guess which? No doubt the Deity makes an exception (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 4940, Apr 29 at 0657, Estación 4940 is on the air S8,
unlike last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15000, Apr 28 at 2206, huge wideband noise blob almost
obliterating WWV, its tone JBA; on two different antennas, but maybe
something local, not usually a problem on this frequency (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
