Hauser
** CHINA [and non]. 11760, March 18 at 1356, English not RHC but
`Beijing Hour`, then ``57 past the hour`` and current temps in
Celsius; Aoki shows this is via Kunming for SE Asia, and // 11880
which is Kashi-Saiba, EAST TURKISTAN. I was checking for RHC, which
does achieve a windhowly deadair on 15140; by 1410, RHC alone on 11760
with S9 deadair while 11880 has another hour of BJ in English (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, March 18 at 0650, no signal from R. Rebelde, tho there
had been a JBA carrier at 2314 before sunset here. Regardless of
apagones, of course, it`s extremely unreliable (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, March 18 at 2220 & 2227, RHC S9+10 of dead air direct;
and 11760 S9+20 of DA plus windhowl; 15140 not on (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** IRAN [and non]. 15730.08 approx., March 18 at 1447 direct, presumed
Iran International TV, clandestine Persian talk. But at 1454 into
UTwente, heavy bubble jamming, hard to separate and pinpoint
frequencies, maybe 15730.117, 15730.299 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 11975, March 18 at 2228, S8/9+10 of deadair to 2230* - That
would be CRI French via Bamako as scheduled 2130-2230 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 1700 kHz, March 18 at 0658 Spanish, ``Super 23`` or ``26``,
unlikely as ID, 0700 Mexican NA, so has to be XEPE, TUDN Deportes,
Tecate BCN, 10/10 kW. There may have been another SS mixing, which
would be KKLF Texas, but has been irregular; also English, WEUP: see U
S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 5140 USB, Wed Mar 18 at *1400, another weekly
OK emergency operations net, WSHM692 opening it, counting 12345,
54321, and rollcall, his name as Williams? Does not mention locations,
but I insert from previous logs:
WQYW443, Beckham County;
WQZT582, Broken Arrow;
WQSY836, Byng;
WNPV700, Durant EOC, Bill answers, L&C, no traffic;
WQYW883, Moore - JBA answer;
WNUW216, OKC;
WNUW215, Ponca City EOC, Jason answers;
KNGR728, Pontotoc County;
WPFY721, Seminole EOC, Ernie answers, L&C;
WNBM839, Stillwater;
WNCH624, Tulsa;
WNBE830, Jefferson City MO, JBA Corey answers, L&C;
At 1405, any others? One unreadable. 1406 closing net until next week
at same time 9 am Central. Then some brief informal QSOs between
WNBE830 & WPFY721, mentioning that Jason in Ponca City is a new one.
1407 WNPV700 Durant QSO another; it`s cold and sunny, until 1409
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 17790, March 18 at 1440, Romanian talk, S5/8 but
considerably off-frequency minus about 17789.96 direct; WRMI not on
yet. But at 1453 ito UTwente, rock music 17790.001+ to 1456* (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690 S9+20/30, 12030 S9/+20 and 17715 S9+10/20, March 18 at
2300 REE sufficient direct on all, for token English on Wednesdays,
``live from Casa de la Radio in Madrid`` - NOT, I`ll bet, rather at
original 12? UT non-SW broadcast. The usual W&M pair with heavy
accents, his worse. Preview something about space display; housing is
problem #1 in Spain. 2301.5 news of week starting with Pres. Zelenskiy
meeting *now* [NOT] with PM Sánchez. King Felipe admits that there was
abuse during the colonial period. 2306-2309, report from Beirut
correspondent about situation there with Israeli attax. Apparently
their only regular foreign correspondent but what other SW station has
one there? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.002, March 18 at 2300, VOT JBA direct with
timesignal, and presumably English. At 2350 into UTwente when
measured, S9+35/40 into UTwente with multi-lingual ID filler reel and
s/off, IS. 2356 pause and restart IS with German IDs until 2358.6*.
Emirler'de her zaman bir şeyler hatalıdır (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 257 MCW kHz, March 18 at 0636 UT, tuned to 255 USB, SW,
StillWater OK near me and always JBA when operative, has CCI from
another; periods almost the same so hard to separate, but last of 3
letters is C. Only fit in RNA list is one I recognize as having heard
before: 257 FWC `Wayne County` Fairfield IL, 25 watts, period 7.2 sex
while SW is 6.12 sex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, March 18 at 0643 UT, FBY, 50 watts at FairBurY
NE, usual dominator, has CCI from another, JBA as TOR, which is 25
watts at TORrington WY (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2338 monitoring: confirmed UT
Wednesday March 18 at 0031 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 3975.001+, S7/S8
but noisy into UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday March 18 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20 into
Knoxville SDR.

From SW Radio, Germany: ``FYI: All of today`s shows on 3975 are
canceled, as we had tx failure earlier on at around 16:30 UT. So no
airing of WOR at 20:30 UT [Wed Mar 18]. Hopefully I manage to drive to
the tx site tomorrow to fix the problem. - Anyhow, I think no one will
notice - lol. Cheers for now, Andy`` - so I did not even check it.

Confirmed Wednesday March 18 at 2123 the 2100 on WBCQ, 7490 -36 Hz =
7489.964 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday March 18 at 2334 the 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+35
into Georgia SDR, but with noise QRM from the plus side, like jamming?
R. Farda via Kuwait now on 9390 might be the target, but it`s not
jammmed, while adding ACI to WRMI from the other side! Next:

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 Martin Gallas, Springfield IL, who says, ``Glenn,
Thanks for your efforts to support Short Wave Radio all these years.
Let`s hope we all live to see sanity restored to our gov`t, more
specifically to the VOA, RFE, RFA etc.`` with a contribution by check
on a US bank to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, March 18 at 2300, VORW International on WRMI as on
Wednesdays only instead of RAE relays. But by 2339 check, dead air
again at S9+40/50 into Georgia SDR, silencing the second half of VORW,
just as it has been blocking WOR at 2330 Sundays. When will WRMI fix
this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1700 kHz, March 18 at 0700 UT, ``94.5`` in English mixing
with one or two Spanish. So that`s rarely heard WEUP, Huntsville AL,
``Worship 94.5`` per NRC AM Log. 94.5 is a mere translator, W233BR,
yet heading a group also including 1600 and 1190 stations. WTFDA FMDB
shows W233BR relaying WEUP 1700 with 250 watts at Moores Mill AL,
``The Heritage Station 1700 AM``, not Worship 94.5, outdated? Moores
Mill is just NE of Huntsville (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0027 UT March 19

** ARGENTINA. 28504 USB, March 17 at 2214, LU3DK with KM7EKJ? QRZ.com:
``LU3DK Argentina flag Argentina, Claudio Hector Luna, Gral. Frias 74
Junín - BUENOS AIRES 6000, Argentina -- DON´T LET THE QSL-CARD CULTURE
BE LOST!!!!`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Tue Mar 17 at 2305, RAE via WRMI finally
back to Portuguese, and `Atualidade DX`, with continuous tango music
in background. YL host. I missed first part, but talking about CFRX
6070. Then about several Denmark stations, such as Radio 208 on 1440
kHz, 5970. Which closed on 31 May 2020. Alemanha: R. Mi Amigo
Internacional; Europa 24 at 0733 on 6150 via Datteln. 2309 credit
Arnaldo Slaen. Despite the show name, it appears trying to be
historical rather than current DX tips, mentioned several other years
in the past. Multi-lingual ID reel and 2310 into next topic:
anniversary of the March 17, 1992 bombing of the Israeli embassy in
Buenos Aires; In 2017 this date was established as an annual memorial.
Hezbollah was blamed, but still not certain who did it. 2313 switches
to Spanish about this and no translation by the time I tune out. Since
this is March 17, gives the impression this broadcast was axually
produced today, or for airing today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 11880, March 17 at 1407, discussion in American
English, S6/S7, must be CRI as listed via Kashgar this hour only.
Certainly not RHC, as I have been checking all their regular
frequencies, and no sign of them at all as the American apagón
continues. FWIW, EiBi shows RHC on 11880 between 15 and 23 only (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13650, March 17 at 2314, still no signal from CRI music
instead of Portuguese relay; no RHC frequencies found either but on
5025 a JBA carrier, presumably Rebelde. News reported some power was
being restored by now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. ``Some recent software issues have caused World of
Radio to be broadcast at the wrong times. We're working on it and
sometimes we live stream it. Hopefully all will be resolved by the UK
clock change day on March 29th. 73's Gary Drew Worldwide 🌐

Caribbean/CIRAFs 10-12. WOR, DX program presented by Glenn Hauser.

WORLD OF RADIO 2338 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday March 17 at 0030
on WRMI 7780, S9+15/20 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 17 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 17 at 1500 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9 direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 17 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,

** U S A. Bob Biermann replies to me about the delay getting WTWW 5085
back on air: ``The truth is the number of us that can work on these
transmitters shrinks everyday. It is beyond critical. Last week I
needed to call Continental Electronics for a part for WRMI.
Continental is the last remaining US Shortwave transmitter
manufacturer. Nobody would answer the phone. I tried for several days.
I hear they may be exiting the SW sector. That means no more custom
parts. That will leave only China, India, and a very expensive
European company with a three year lag time`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 28475 USB, March 17 at 2213, YV4EBD calling some more DX
station. QRZ.com: ``YV4EBD Venezuela flag Venezuela, Edgardo "ED"
Perez,
Valencia 2001, Venezuela`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9490, March 17, originally very strong open carrier as
in last report from 0206, finally cuts off air about 0359* into
Georgia SDR.

Another 9490 report, from JRX in Brasil: ``FRANCE, 9490. Wed, Mar 11,
2026. 0209-0220, Radio República, Issoudun-F, in Spanish to Cuba. Good
signal, S9 +20, dead air! The transmission problem continues. CLA
Station.`` Unclear how he can be certain of such identity (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 25985 LSB, March 16 at 2216, unID Brasuguese CB/freebander
with reverb, beeps; while licensed Brahams are in on 10m. Another, at
2217 on 25835 LSB, yelling, reverb, beeps (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 28490 USB, March 16 at 2211, Matt, PU1SHK calling CQDX from
Rio. I thought it was PY1SHK, unfound, but DX heat/cluster matches
frequency and call to a contact at 2203. Then back to QRZ.com:
``PU1SHK Brazil flag Brazil, Matheus "Matt" Miller, Campos Dos
Goytacazes, RJ, Brazil`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. NO RHC frequencies, Rebelde or CRI relays heard March 17
around 0210 on 4 thru 16 MHz, due to islandwide apagón as in the news.
I don`t usually have any clear on MW, but the most obvious absence
there is 530, only a JBA carrier presumably Canada (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CHILE. 28495 USB, March 16 at 2214, CE3VAK, Víctor in Santiago
contacting a TI. QRZ.com: ``CE3VAK Chile flag Chile, Victor M.
Aranguiz M., Santiago, Chile`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004-, March 16 at 2305, no signal from VOT
into UTwente. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. But recheck at
2353 when measured, a song which could be Turkish or Turkistanish, now
S9+30/40; 2355 VOT English s/off as if 1330 on 13635, something`s
always awry at Ankara. Fragment of IS, just in time to pause, cut to
restart IS loop now with German IDs. Emirler macht immer Fehler. 0000
March 17, s/on but hard to understand German, must be Turkish accent:
something`s always awry at Ankara. Now the ChiCom understation is
audible. By next check 0006, VOT finally off, clear for East
Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom cultural genocide against
Uighurs and other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2338 monitoring: Confirmed Sunday
March 15 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.996+, S9 into
UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday March 15 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

Also confirmed Sunday March 15 at 2230 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975.001+, S8/9+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday March 15 at 2300 on WRMI 9395, S9+15 into
Knoxville SDR.

NOT confirmed Sunday March 15 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, rather like last
week cut to S9+10/20 dead air into Knoxville after Wavescan, 2350
lead-up to resuming at top of hour!

Confirmed UT Monday March 16 from 0305.2 on Area 51 webcast, after
WBCQ 5130 cut off JL who was running over, not gotta go until 0304.
BTW, 7490 at that hour was getting only OTH radar into NH SDR.

Confirmed Monday March 16 at 2030 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975.001-, S9/+10 into UTwente. Next:

0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW;

** U S A. 9930, March 16 at 2207 as I happen to bandscan across here,
no signal from WTWW, but instantly cuts on with S9+40 of TOMBS (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, WTWW update early UT March 17 from George McClintock:
still can`t get it to work, after installing a new tube. Will keep
messing with it, awaiting consultant, who is ex-Continental and made
the transmitter, to return from Vietnam. There was a burned-up shroud
around the tubes, blackening. Checked the tube sockets and they seem
to match. Another $ 1200 tube did not work and surprisingly the seller
refunded his money. Got two plungers costing $ 6000 each (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17790, March 16 at 2220, zero signal direct from WRMI-7,
leaving 17715 Spain the OSOB; while 15770 WRMI-9 is nominal (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Mon March 16 at 2307, WRMI-11 in Portuguese, so RAE
relay is back to that after excursions to Chinese, Japanese, Spanish.
Let its S8+30/40 into Georgia SDR run in background and did not notice
exactly when it went silent, but at 2350 came to life with the IS/ID,
ToH leadup as if just signing on. Same mixup we`ve been getting on
Sundays, instead of previously scheduled WOR at 2330 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, UT Tue March 17 at 0202, surprised to hear WWCR-4 on
the air now; maybe it`s been back for a while, but only scheduled UT
Tue-Sat at 02-04 when I haven`t been checking much. It`s Truth House
this hour and guess what, the convicted and deceased Tony Alámo at
03-04! per sked. 4840 & 5935 are also on air, so WWCR is back to full
75% with #1 unit still closed down voluntarily. This also possiblizes
the leapfrog mixing product on 5980 if not in reverse on 5845 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 760, March 17 at 0211 UT, something in Spanish almost
as strong as WJR, but no time to follow it. Rather than Cuba, most
likely XEABC near Mexico City among the six XEs, if not 10 kW daytimer
KMTL Arkansas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9490, March 17 at 0206, huge S9+40 open carrier direct,
surely too strong for ISS in case on by mistake with no R. República
feed? It`s the SSOB exceeding 9395, 9690, 9700, 9955! Still at 0245
S9+50 into Georgia SDR, but seems to go off about 0258 -- no, a weaker
deadair is still there, only S7/9+15 past 0313 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, March 16 at 0443, RHC S9+30 in -- Brasuguese! Where
it`s 1:43 am in most of Brazil, but one or two hours earlier in the
sparsely populated western timezones. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 6030, 7355, 7435, 9820, March 16 at 0430, R. Martí is
still on here, strongest on the 7s, weakest on the 9; but all off by
0506 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. 15750.1, March 16 at 1452, JBA carrier direct. Only
15750 listee is Iran International TV at 04-19 via XUU = unknown site
per Eibi, but BULGARIA per Aoki, not in HFCC. Or since it`s
off-frequency, could this be a jammer instead? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** JAPAN [non]. 7450, March 16 at 0507, frequency announcement in
French, S9/+10. It`s NHK via FRANCE, but such relays are canceled as
of A-26 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

``North Star Bank in Estherville, Iowa is a longtime sponsor on KILR,
which has been getting out suspiciously well the past couple years.
They've been solidly under KNX on many of my recordings at the Border
Inn. 73 Tim Hall``

KILR is U4, supposedly only 250/48 watts! Estherville is almost at the
Minnesota border, east of Sioux Falls. Day pattern is slightly
lopsided favoring the southwest, night pattern more so. In this Tim
Hall report from 2025y, times presumably EDT so 1159 UT:

``1070 KILR IA Estherville – 10/27 0759 – Steady signal, way under
KNX, with ID: “News Talk 10-70 and 97.3 FM, KILR Estherville” into
Town Hall News. Listed 48 Watts nights (directional) or 15.3 Watts
PSRA (non-directional). 1040 miles``

Then I also get these tips from Saul Chernos, Ont.: ``North Star bank
also in Minnesota. There’s also in Iowa including Estherville`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. ``Hi Glenn, A while back you mentioned picking up a
signal somewhere around 1441.65. This signal is present on many of my
Border Inn recordings from last October. It is stronger on my more
northerly wires, but conditions that weekend strongly favored northern
signals, so that not be a reliable clue.

More importantly, I have just noticed that there is a companion signal
on 1458.35 -- about the same signal strength as 1441.65, and stronger
on my more northerly wires. This would seem to imply that we're
dealing with spurs from a station on 1450.

On the recording I'm currently reviewing (aimed 56 degrees at
Minnesota), the stations that were coming in on 1450 were KBFS, KEYY
and KJCV. Of course, there may have been others present that didn't
ID.

KBFS is all over my recordings from last October -- even on wires
aimed way south of them. They would probably be the first station I
would suspect. KJCV is semi-regular and KEYY (despite being one of my
closest signals on 1450) is only an occasional catch.

I'll try to gather a bit more data, such as what time the signal
finally goes away each morning, and what stations were present on 1450
when the spurs were strongest. I'm well behind on reviewing last
October's recordings, so it may be some time before I can assemble
enough information to be useful. 73 Tim Hall``

Great, your attn to these things is much appreciated! And the KILR
reply. I tune primarily in USB, so next time I get 1441+ I must try
1460 minus on LSB. KBFS = Belle Fourche SD; KEYY Provo UT; KJCV =
Jackson WY.

In fact I check this out soon, March 16 at 0432 UT on the R75: 1441.61
is indeed accompanied by a matching JBA carrier about 1458.39. Then I
try to get a rough bearing on the handheld PL-660, and 1441.61 seems
to peak more from NW than NNW, so that points to UT or WY rather than
SD (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
