BRAZIL. 11780, UT Tue Apr 29 at 0151, token English from RNB via
RNA, S5/S7 with considerable fading into local? `Brasila` SDR, English
about cycles of rivers and rain in Amazonia; // 6180 is S7/S8 with
some fading but less than 11780. 0153 IDs in English, Portuguese,
switch to token Spanish about Belém, 0158 outro already. One needs to
tune in NLT 0148 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

SPAIN. 15520.000+, S9/+15 and 15389.992, S9+20, April 29 at 1543
into UTwente, REE back on air in Spanish, following massive Iberian
power outage; the other two, 15500 & 17715, don`t start until 1800 on
weekdays. 1844, 15500 & 17715 also on, all four roughly equal into
UTwente, news about Canadian elexion with voiced-over clips in
English. But if it`s Tuesday there must be no English at 2200, altho
all four are still on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

TURKEY. 11785.004-, Apr 29 at 2207, VOT English not off the air,
but JBA S9/+20 direct. At 2246 into UTwente when measured, S9+15/25 of
Turkish rock music fill. 2251 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2253

Logs
** FRANCE. 11995, Apr 30 at 0606, African language S9/+5. EiBi shows
RFI in Hausa at 0600-0630 via ISSoudun. This has a better signal than
11700 RFI in French which is 250 kW at 200 degrees. 11995 is 250 kW at
170 degrees, neither anywhere near thisaway. IIRC 11995 is a frequency
inherited from Africa Number One, Gabon; remember? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** JAPAN. 15195, Apr 30 at 0609, NHK IS, 0610 `Sakura` theme and
opening Chinese, S3 direct; odd time to start a broadcast, but
Mandarin indeed scheduled at 0610-0630. Many language services last
only 20 minutes now, otherwise Russian, Korean, French, Arabic, Farsi,
Hindi, Urdu, Thai, as in:
https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A25&broadc=NHK
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH. 15245.24 approx., Apr 30 at 2214, JBA talk, S6/S7 with
flutter, no doubt VOK Spanish as sked this hour. Aoki ignores the fact
that this is perpetually off+frequency, quite a signature, but EiBi
shows 15245.2, also at long hours of 07-09, 13-2350. If you do hear
something on 15245.0 at other times it would be CRI or RFA Taiwan
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1460, Apr 30 at 2225 UT, KZUE El Reno ID as ``La
Tremenda, 1460 AM y 97.7 FM``, and maybe then ``Radio Fórmula`` as in
NRC Log for this ``group``, which shows *two* FM translators on 97.7:
K249FG and K249EN. WTFDA FM Database shows K249EN also in El Reno, 250
watts vertical only, in Spanish; but mixed up about the other, K249FG
in OKC, G.C. slightly south and east of the other one, which is shown
as 250 W H&V, Spanish, yet ``smooth jazz``, ``The City``, which also
applies to KCYI-LP, 42 watts in OKC, but axually from Edmond, ex-97.5.
It seems that two translators and an LP on the same frequency in one
Metro would not be viable. 97.7 is blocked here with a local in Enid.
In English it`s ``Ree-noh``; would have to catch a full ID in Spanish
whether they can say ``Ray-noh``. KZUE itself is a 500-watt daytimer.
And does this R. Fórmula relate to the real Mexican network/brand?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.5, Apr 30 circa 2030 UT, rock music sounds mono altho
$ tereo pilot is on; local quality briefly on caradio around Cleveland
and west OK Garriott intersexion. By a mile east at OKG and South Van
Buren, where 1670 Virtual DJ Radio dominates, 95.5 is losing out to
real FM stations in the fringes: KWEN Tulsa, KWEY Clinton or KAHE
Dodge City. Heard same a day or two ago and figured some car`s RF
feeder, but this is apparently more permanent pirate (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 = 15500 > 15520 > 15390, Wed Apr 30 at 2208, all SNR
frequencies active for token English, all about the blackout/apagón of
Apr 28. In order here by decreasing strength direct (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.007-, Apr 30 at 2209, VOT not off the air, S8/S9
direct already in music after olds. At 2241 into UTwente when
measured, S9+10, ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music; 2245
``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music. 2253 s/off as if it`s the 1230
on 17620, IS to 2254.6*. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2292 monitoring: ``Richard Lemke,
St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, From the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF (30 years of service), Antenna: random
long wires in the trees, WRMI, USA, World of Radio #2292: 9395 kHz,
QRN, voice heard made out, S6 signal, 2345, 2359, April 29 UTC 2025
[Tuesday] (Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Confirmed Tuesday April 29 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/30 into Georgia
SDR.

Also confirmed Tuesday April 29 at 2331 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003+, S8/S9 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday April 30 at 1934 the 1930 on SW Radio,
Germany, 6160.001-, S9/+10 with RTTYditty de 6164, into UTwente, and
also on 3975.002- S9+5 weaker on meter but louder.

Also confirmed Wednesday April 30 at 2106 the 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -74 Hz
= 7489.926, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR. Next:

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

Financial support appreciated for our non-commercial public
service program: thanks for a generous contribution from Dan Sheedy,
Encinitas, California, ``Hey Glenn, big thanx 2 ya for all your
efforts keeping DX  info up 2 date - Cheers from the beach,
Dan -- PS stay safe, strong & may we all survive `25!`` - to
Glenn Hauser, P O 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. 9955, Apr 30 at 0603, WRMI off again instead of TOMBS. Reply
to my obs yesterday: ``WRMI latest schedule, Overcomer overnight
Saturday & Sunday only now. Peter W Hansen``. I think it has been
confusingly labeled like that for a long time, despite really running
9955 all night every night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, April 30 at 0603, R. Vanuatu in presumed Bislama
talk, S6/S9 direct. But soon gone again:

``Hello all, 30/04, around 0834 all R. Vanuatu's known frequencies are
off. 2485, 3945, 5040, 7260, 7890, 9960, 11835. Checked in various
remotes in AUS and NZL. 73 Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, Brasil``

``Greetings, Lúcio, from California. Thanks for monitoring! Yes, at
0910+ UT (April 30) also noticed no SW signal (3945, etc.) from Radio
Vanuatu, via various NZ remotes. Another power outage? Have sent an
email to the station. Ron (Monterey, Calif.)``

``Hello Ron, it happened 29/04 too, check around 0850 in various
remotes in AUS and NZL. Lúcio, Brasil, 73`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7656.0, April 30 at 0616, open carrier S7/S9 except for
some clix at irregular intervals, maybe about 23 per minute; and clix
audible out to this range: 7643/7666. What is this? Among several
