re Bob's question,
can tell someone with English language background
in the SDR / Perseus community
about correct SDR receiver alignement / calibration and read-out
etc.,

and check action frequencies against reliable broadcaster like
BBC WOF, OMA, SNG, ASC and so on - on standard fq format WHV WWVH,
and especially to mention China mainland excellent shortwave radio work
these days,
with precise x.000 kHz outlets on their much amount of 500 kW beasts.

Note to compare with DXing in the 70ties in the past,
when used Collins 390A or 391 after WWII state of the art units.
Calibrated with a 5 kHz / 1 kHz calibrator reading in these era.

PERSEUS unit is the best ever used correct rx calibration here
since appeared from Italy on Christmas in 2008 year.

Tonight occurs excellent and early good reception worldwide,
when checked remote SDR in Cape Canaveral FL, NJ and MI units:

** CUBA. 9620-9660 approx., Sept 27 at 1326 range of buzznoise out of
9640 transmitter which itself exhibits some humbuzz rather than clear
modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But today no 13 MHz FM
service (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9490, Sept 27 at 1327, pulse jamming vs nothing, far outside
the Radio República hours of 01-05. Tough luck, many other users of
9490 including CRI in Bengali right now; also at various hours: AWR
Armenia, BVB via Germany, Bulgaria; NHK via Germany, Tibet, Romania,
Taiwan, VOA via Thailand, Kuwait, São Tomé, UAE, Ascension.
Something`s always wrong at the incompetent DentroCuban Jamming

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5129.976, Sept 27 at 0230, WBCQ now off-frequency-minus, but
closer after quite a spell circa 5130.38v. Can`t read the programming,
but scheduled UT Fridays 0200-0300 is Radio for Peace International,
i.e. in French; a new tongue for WBCQ? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A. 7505v, Sept 27 at 0236, WRNO is OFF; come to think of it,
have not heard in some time altho I have not been seeking it nightly
during the 01-04 UT window. Walt Salmaniw says it`s been a week or
two. So what`s wrong? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 860, Sept 27 at 1312? UT, tune across Pittsburg KS` KKOW ID
``and 97.5 in Joplin`` MO, item to add to the NRC AM Log which shows
no FM. Per WTFDA FM Database, that`s K248DR, 250 watt translator,
ex-K258BF on 105.7. It has no other FM relays of KKOW, not even in
Pittsburg itself (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1160, Sept 27 at 1253 UT, Oom-pah Mexican music is dominant,
but there is only one XE left on 1160, way off in BC. 1254
announcement mentions ``La Doble K``, so slogan ID? Searching on that
leads no closer than to Lima, Perú. There are no Unitedstatesian 1160s
with KK in their calls. Among US SS stations, this is certainly KCTO
Cleveland MO (KC market), but all listings and own website call it
``La Mega``, nothing about double-K. 1256 fades and I tune elsewhere;
back to 1160 at 1300 it`s faded back up with more Mex music so maybe I
missed real ID. KSL is hardly a factor, as usual seeming weakened.
Belatedly I try to DF it, and NE/SW seems to fit. Soon a SAH develops
of 72/minute = 1.2 Hz, losing out to religion in English, perhaps KRDY
San Antonio altho listed as TLK, or a late remnant of WYLL Chicago
(Glenn Hauser, OK,, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1210, Sept 27 at 0559 UT, rapid multi-station ID for the
Information Station group, including WJNL, and 0600 WJML News; so
Kingsley MI *50 kW daytimer is still cheating* as first noted here
over two sesquimonths ago --- obviously no one else cares, not even
the legal 1210 stations at night. I`m not aiming the DX-398 toward it,
just dominating KGYN et al., on the E-W longwire, at a
spur-of-the-moment check; and BTW at this time it`s much better than
1200 WOAI! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7457-USB, Sept 27 at 1322, MARS net 4TX2 with NCS AFA4WP
arranging relays in rollcall. No results searching for that call, but
we know it`s AF MARS region 4, and maybe TX refer to Texas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Logs
** CUBA. 6100, Sept 26 at 0633, RHC bigsig of S9+30 with deadair in
English; straining, a trace of JJBB modulation. 6165 is only S9/+10
but more modulation to the JB level, hardly sufficient. 6000 is
already off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5040, Sept 26 at 0640 is S9+20 but once again wrong language,
Spanish instead of English, and barely modulated. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13634 approx., Sept 26 at 1404, RHC-FM back to ``normal``,
spurblobs out of 13700-AM transmitter instead of 13740 as happened
yesterday. Matched by +66 kHz about 13766; with F# tones and second
orders much weaker about 13568, 13833; but no third-orders audible
about 13500 & 13900; the outer ones are really unnecessary, anyway.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11880, Sept 26 at 1415, CRI Plus English relay is S9+10 but
modulation somewhat suppressed + distorted = suptorted. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9610-9670 approx., Sept 26 at 1420, buzz field out of 9640
RHC now detectable over +/- 30 kHz range, worst peaks around 9630 &
9650. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** HAWAII. 5000, Sept 26 at 0649, WWVH again announcing a listener
survey at a website, could not catch details, but no doubt repeating
every hour during this minute, and elsewhen on WWV, which now is JBA
following WWVH TC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 12030, Sept 25 at 1820, after two days of dead air, REE has
awakened to modulate the ME beam with silly ballgame (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** THAILAND. 9390, Sept 26 at 1418, R. Thailand, VP talk in presumed
English as scheduled 1400-1430, also other languages since 1200. In
the MARE Tipsheet, Ken Zichi and Gary Vance report an unmod carrier on
9389, out of 9395 WRMI? Or an artifact. Never noticed here (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K. 12005, Sept 25 at 1819, French at S9-S7, discussion between
studio and phoner. HFCC shows BBC Woofferton, 1800-1830, 250 kW, 170
degrees. At 13-18 it`s also Woofferton due east with IBB in Farsi =
Radio Farda. And would you believe that HFCC still has registered in
A-19 on 12005 at 1700-2110, 500 kW from Sfax, Tunisia in Arabic,
long-gone and imaginary? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2000 monitoring: confirmed Wed Sept 25 at
2100 on WBCQ, 7490+, S9-S7. Rereconfirmed no longer simulcast on 9955
WRMI, q.v.

BTW, after many, many months, WRMI skedgrid continues to show three
imaginary airings of WOR in the 2100-2200 span (along with many other
programs) when System D has *no* frequencies: Tue 2130, Wed & Thu
2100. Also never deleted from that sked, System F, Wed 1030 on 5950.

WOR 2000 also confirmed UT Thursday Sept 26 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, poor
off the side, and not upcut as I repeat my opening words. Next WOR
2001 should be ready early UT Friday Sept 27 for first SW airing at
2200 on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, Wed Sept 25 at 2058, WRMI with IS & ID loop, 2100
opening RFPI in French; since I am not familiar with exactly how they
begin, can`t be sure whether it`s upcut like ex-WORLD OF RADIO always
was for weeks at this time; for the third week RFPI, and finally that
shows on the skedgrid. BTW, I see that WRMI now shows both XMTR 4 and
10 on 9955 at 160 degrees, but no transmissions at all from #4, so a
backup? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. [re my previous report:] ``9955, Sunday September 22 at
1253, `I Love Italy` acknowledging reception reports. In Italian,
quite different accent than we hear from Roberto Scaglione in Sicilia;
I wonder if this guy be an expatriate. Nothing about the show on the
WRMI Programming page; scheduled Sundays 1245-1300``

On the WOR iog, Roberto Scaglione replies: ``He is not an expatriate,
but Andrea Mangiarotti is from far north and I am from far south,
completely different....``

And Tibor Gaal, Budapest, Hungary adds: ``North and south Italian
people speak different dialects of Italian. Italy's geographical
feature made it possible to form different dialects in the south than
in the north of the country. On the map Italy is a long country if you
see in north-south direction meanwhile it is not very-very wide
(east-west direction).`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330, Sept 25 at 1814 check, WBCQ-6 not on today nor later
into UT Sept 26 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5890, Sept 26 at 0628, S5-S9 of dead air as WWCR is on again
with kilowastage; same signal level as 5935 modulating DGS (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5050-USB, Sept 26 at 0645 weak talk in USB only, seems
Spanish, continuous like a broadcast, but eventually some pauses like
2-way. Severely obscured by big AM carrier on 5051.0 where normally
there is none. 5050 talk is not // either Cuban on 5040, 5025 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Logs
** CUBA. 13675, Sept 25 at 1320, RHC spurblob at new spot; only a
trace of unreadable modulation when tuned in FM mode, along with F#
tone but now seems an octave lower, below middle C. Immediately
obvious that this is no longer coming out of the 13700 AM transmitter,
but instead out of 13740-AM! That one now has a big hum unlike 13700.
They must have swapped transmitters/sites! Why? Just for me?

EiBi not updated since Aug 25! Eike on holiday? Aoki & EiBi agree that
13700 is/was Bauta. 13740 Bejucal per EiBi, totally missing from Aoki.
Then until 1326 I search out the rest of the spur constellation, at
about 65 kHz intervals above and below 13740, progressively weaker
toward the edges ending with traces:

13805, 13870, 13935, 14000, 14065, 14130, 14195
13675, 13610, 13545, 13480, 13415, 13350, 13285

That out to the seventh order, 7 x 65 kHz. 13610 is obscured by Radio
Martí 13605 --- a little nudge to the spurring would have added more
jamming on that! Recheck at 1426, 13740 and its splotches all off.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** FRANCE. 15300, Sept 25 at 1339, song like a round, and French
announcement about ``animal imaginaire``, S9 much stronger than RHC
15230 or 15140. Tuned for anything else on 19m and back to 15300 at
1342, it`s already off! Nothing but RFI Issoudun uses this frequency
but at many other hours, not scheduled this one. Qu'est-ce qui se
passe? Épreuve? (Guillaume Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5980, Wed Sept 25 at 1310, fair YL in Korean, no
jamming audible. One of the current frequencies for Shiokaze from JSR
JAPAN, Korean scheduled this semihour on Wed & Fri. Tomorrow Thu
should be in English. 6070 supposed to be // not noticed there tho not
specifically checked as had not remembered where (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** KUWAIT. 17549.98, Sept 24 at 2140, JBA carrier, OSOB, presumably R.
Kuwait`s over-optimistic quadri-hour Arabic broadcast especially for
C&W North America. First time for a few weeks even a JBAC detected
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6185, Sept 24 at 2009 UT, JBA carrier from
presumed XEPPM which is really on air in daytime; equally JBA carriers
on 6070- from CFRX CANADA, and 5950 WRMI USA, ``the nifty NAFTA trio``
on 49m, again detectable tnx to fixing my line noise level. LSS today
0026 UT, so more than 4 hours before our sunset. Only signals audible
on 49m. All of these in the 1100-1200 mile range (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 18150-USB, Sept 24 at 2027, XE1XR, David, is the OSOB
making quick contacts in English with US stations as if in a contest
on a Tuesday? Signal VG, the OSOB and I do not hear his contacts if
simplex. Obviously an off- or late-season HF sporadic E opening.
QRZ.com lookup finds:

XE1XR Mexico
David Vega Urbina
MORELIA, MICHOACAN
QSL: DIRECT TO EA5GL

He has an extremely heavy accent, hard to follow and overmodulated.
Must be close to MUF, as absolutely nothing to be heard on quick chex
of 21, 24, 27 and 28 MHz bands (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6900-USB, Sept 24 at 2129, now with my line noise
fixed I can look for pirates this early in the daytime, 3 hours before
sunset, not expecting to hear any so early, but here is one, music
mixed with talk, ``who did that to you?`` like a soundtrack. Music
includes wacky sound effects. Peaks at S8. No announcements until off
at 2149*. Surely someone else reported it to hfunderground --- NO!
Several of the regular pirates have appeared on 6900 in the past
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1.6-2.4 MHz or so, Sept 25 now I have an S9 line noise
level in this area, where it was not before the 3-9 MHz range was
cleared up. O well, this bit is more dispensable, but still a bother
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 12030, Sept 24 at 2014, dead air for the second day from REE
to ME; ¿no one notices at Noblejas? S9+10 fading to S7; 9690 to NAm is
OK; 11940 to SAm also S9-S7 with silly ballgame. Recheck at 2124:
12030 still dead air, 11940 & 9690 good, 11670 off (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 4623.5-USB, Sept 25 at 1305, MARS net 6TX2 with NCS AFA6RH
rollcall to numerous stations. I thought it would be easy to search
out location of this call, not so (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A. 7200-LSB, Sept 25 at 0612, KM6VPJ with quick CQs over and
over, no answers; at least a legit ham on this frequency. Do I hear
Midway Island? Hardly. QRZ.com:

KM6VPJ USA
Alan E Lubanes
520 Empirecreek Trail
Georgetown, CA 95634 USA

** U S A. 9330.00, Sept 24 at 2008, WBCQ-6 on with rock music, only
S9-S7 so presumably again testing oppositeward like 60 degrees toward
Egypt. Much weaker than 9350 WWCR always blasting in here, S9+40. Did
not track 9330 further, but not on into the evening (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.09v, Tue Sept 24 at 2132, WBCQ during ``Available Time
Slot`` fills with `AAAWWW` as he is talking about e-mail with a
caller. Before line noise was fixed I would not have been able to hear
this weak signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 4840, Sept 25 at 0601, S9+20 of dead air from WWCR, when
TOMBS was supposed to start overnight from 0600. Failure to
connect?Other WWCRs are OK: 5935 with DGS/PMS, 3215 TOMBS gets to
WWCR, so why not on 4840? 3215, however has the perpetual squeal
infecting the #1 transmitter; who cares? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1280, Sept 24 around 1830 UT on caradio, NO signal from KSOK
Arkansas City KS. Past week+ had been QRP, and now completely off.
What`s the problem? Later at 2017 UT on the R75, only a JBA carrier,
probably Poteau OK KPRV. KSOK not related to these:

1130, Sept 24 around 1830, KLEY Wellington KS remains off. Its
protracted absences may not just be a technical matter. Artie Bigley
forwards this about its group problems:

Sale Conflict Takes Wichita Cluster Off The Air
https://radioinsight.com/headlines/180682/sale-conflict-takes-wichita-cluster-off-the-air/

Also affecting stations on 1550, 92.3, 92.7, 97.1, 100.3, 100.5.
Around the same time I had noticed 92.3 missing but not 92.7 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 90.1, Sept 25 at 1348 UT, KHCC Radio Kansas tropo is
overriding KUCO OK, and I think I hear the last words of a StarDate
episode -- but unfound on KHCC websked, too insignificant? Not on SD
affiliate list either in KS, just the KANU stations and KRPS (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
