** CHINA. 9155, Sept 17 at 1329, Chinese VP from CNR1 jammer; none
audible in the 10s; 11460 & 11785 both JBA carriers at 1333; none in
the 12s or 13s; but 13855 is S3 in Chinese at 1351, CRI in Chinese
this hour only via Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of Uighur
brainwashing (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. Comparing the two RHC 19mb frequencies, Sept 16 at 2026:
15370 in Spanish song, not // 15140 in other music vamping. At 2030,
15140 goes into Portuguese but chops off at 2032.6* during This Day in
History; and 15370 continues, in choking Arabic. The foreign languages
don`t dare announce what times and frequencies they are on, since, you
never know when and where they will upshow. 15140 was supposed to stop
at 2030 after French, altho last check Sept 13 it was in Portuguese
before 2030.

Another check Sept 17 at 2008: 15140 OK in proper French; 15370 in
proper Portuguese but undermodulated with crackle on the modulation
and carrier. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR. 11965, Sept 16 at 2024 tuning across MWV hour in
English, I hear two words: ``vomiting, diarrhea`` ---- and keep right
on tuning! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15730, Sept 16 at 2026, VOA French with pronounced
long/short path echo, off by 2030. Also detected Sept 17 at 2007.
Haven`t heard any like this in a long time, as propagation in general
is so degraded against anything coming the long way around.
Calculating the delay as I have no way of measuring it: Grimesland NC
is only 1860 km from here short path, so would be 38215 km long path,
using 40075 km as the equatorial circumference of Earth. At speed of
light, SP takes only 0.006 second to get here, while LP takes .1275
second, so .1215 is the difference or about one eighth of a second.
The azimuth toward Africa is 94 degrees, so the bulk of the 250 kW
signal is radiating very close to opposite of here where we are almost
due west. Normally we get only a fraxion off the back of the beam,
while the LP peters out long before reaching here from the west. For
this to happen of course, it also takes a frequency/band which will
propagate both day and night. And the closer the source, the longer
the LP echo delay (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1999 monitoring: I missed it, but confirmed
by Mark Coady, Selwyn, Ontario, ODXA: ``7780, USA, WRMI at 0102 with
Glenn Hauser's “World of Radio” - Fair to Good at first but largely
lost to deep fading by 0111 Sept 17 – The bands pretty well died off
at this time with absolutely nothing from WRMI or any of the other
North American broadcasters and there were only a few weak
transmissions on the 80 meter ham band around 3755``.

Next we shall hear if WOR has really been canceled Wed at 2100 on WRMI
9955; last week it was replaced by `RFPI` in French, but the websked
still shows WOR. Also:

2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9455, Tue Sept 17 at 2125, S9/+10 of dead air, WRMI-8 must
not have turned off after scheduled APS Radio music at 1900-2100 M-F.
9395 & 9955 are modulating OK (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17775, Sept 17 at 2121, praise music in Spanish at S9/+10,
so KVOH is running overtime, supposed to close SW at 2100 Tue & Thu
per own sked revised Sept. 1;
http://voiceofhope.com/schedule/kvoh_program_grid.pdf
It`s the OSOB & SSOB, not even Kuwait on 17550, unless that`t the JBA
carrier circa 17550.6 rather than something local (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1590, Sept 17 at 0632 UT I find a strong dominant signal
with promo for Dave Ramsey on ``Smart Talk 1590, WCGO and 95-9 FM``,
0634 UT back to C2CAM. WCGO CoL is Evanston but tries to attach itself
to Chicago as the name implies. It`s U2 10/2.5 kW, with night pattern
aimed only NE! So for it to inboom here to the SW, it`s got to be on
day pattern ND and maybe day power too. Recheck next night, Sept 18 at
0350 UT, plug a website with chicago in it, but not as dominant,
losing to some Spanish from the south, see UNID.

NRC AM Log gives WCGO slogan ``The Talker`` instead and no FM. Per
WTFDA FMDB, 95.9 is, you guessed it, a mere 250-watt translator,
W240EH in Evanston, ``Chicago`s Smart Talk``. At least 1590 still gets
top billing as heard. And would you believe there is *another* 95.9
translator licensed to Evanston, W240DE relaying WKTA-1330. It is
however, only 80 watts, located 7 minutes, 1 second further north; 10
minutes, 29 seconds further west (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1590, Sept 18 at 0351 UT, as I just remonitored WCGO
from the NE, Spanish music upfades, romantic, then tropical. I get a
pretty sharp DF as due south/north, which per NRC AM Log points to
KDAE Sinton TX (Corpus Christi), Radio Aleluya, U4 1000/500 with
virtually no signal to the north. Other SS in TX is KMIC Houston, U2
5000/5000, Radio Libertad, at night Gulfward. Both listed as
Spanish/Religious. Of course, fade down if there were any ToH ID, then
back up while WCGO is in network news in English. One more
possibility, XEVOZ in CDMX, which is somewhat west of south, but 20/10
kW with POP E/S format per IRCA Mexican Log. The only Mexican left on
1590. Fred Cantú`s final 2015y roster still had four (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 300 kHz, Sept 16 at 0622 UT, dash and YIV, 500 watt ND
beacon from Island Lake, Manitoba. Believe this be a new one for me.
Wikipedia: ``Island Lake is a small community in east central
Manitoba, Canada. The community is on several islands in Island Lake,
which is the 6th largest lake in the province. The community is
located 297 kilometers (185 mi) east from Thompson, Manitoba and 610
kilometers northeast of Winnipeg`` near the Ontario border. That makes
it 1965 km = 1221 miles from me. Bill Hepburn had reported that this
one was to be retained beyond 2026y rather than decommissioned.

218 kHz, Sept 16 at 0626 UT, dash and RL, 975 watt ND beacon from Red
Lake, Ontario.

332 kHz, Sept 16 at 0628 UT, dash and QT, 1000 watt ND beacon from
Thunder Bay, Ontario. Same time and frequency, IC, 400 watts from
Wichita, Kansas, but different pitches. Also two more from USA, q.v.

346 kHz, Sept 16 at 0630 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watt ND beacon from
Sioux Lookout, Ontario (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13557, 13629, 13770, 13841, trace 13912 approx., Sept 16 at
1358, FM spurblobs out of 13700-AM, RHC; but today these are rather
weak, with F# tone but very little or no program modulation; and the
one on 13629 produces more mod in AM than FM, as RHC fails again to
provide decent FM service; roughly 70-73 kHz intervals above and
below. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9630 & 9650, Sept 16 at 1410, buzzblobs equally on both sides
of 9640 RHC, which I conclude is producing them; matching and above
line- and other band noise levels. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 326 kHz, Sept 16 at 0620 UT, MA, 400 watt ND beacon from
Midland TX. I was tuned to 324.

347 kHz, Sept 16 at 0631 UT, AFK, 25 watt ND beacon from Nebraska
City, NE. Also logged four from CANADA, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1999 monitoring: confirmed
Sunday September 15 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, JBA vs HNL.

Also confirmed UT Monday Sept 16 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, poor, // much
better S9+10 on 9395.

Also confirmed UT Monday Sept 16 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, poor after
`Everglades` ID.

Also confirmed UT Monday Sept 16 from 0303.6 on Area 51 webcast; JBA
in HNL at 0326 check on WBCQ 5130.37v.

Also confirmed UT Monday Sept 16 at 0330 on WRMI webcast, but 9955 is
JBA carrier vs Cuban pulse jamming at 0327. Next:

** U S A. Larry Will explains further on the WOR iogroup Sept 16 about
the Jason we heard on WBCQ:

``Jason Hill runs WBCQ 94.7 "KIXX-FM" (country format) and WXME 780 //
W252DW 98.3. WXME has a talk format in the daytime and runs an album
rock format at night. Jason's been working with WBCQ for over 20
years. At one point he was a board operator and did a show called
"Squad 51" on WBCQ shortwave c. 2004 in the early days of the
5100/5105/5110/5130 service.

The Timtron show we ran on Saturday at 2300 on Area 51 was actually a
rebroadcast from 26 January 2013 which, non-coincidentally, was
Timtron at Monticello with Jason as a guest. Lw`` (Glenn Hauser, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1280, Sept 16 at 1645 UT, KSOK Arkansas City KS is still
weak, QRP with music; nearing midday, only one GW signal from its
direxion. Could be on night power of 100 watts, instead of 1000 day,
500 watts PSRA. It`s only 106 km = 66 statute miles city-to-city
(Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BONAIRE. 800, Sept 15 at 0144, without really trying in
tune-across, Spanish mention of rtm.org and Bible talk in strange
accent, i.e. PJB, TWR. Dominant on the E-W longwire, where`s KQCV OKC?
It still dominates on the DX-398 except when nulled (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 13640, Sept 14 at 2237, JBA talk of interest only because
hardly anything else is audible on band --- listed as CRI Japanese
bihour from Jinhua site, so probably aimed thisaway beyond (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Re my CNR1 jammer log on unlisted 11170, Wolfgang Bueschel
reminds that he found Sound of Hope nearby during his exhaustive
survey: ``my trace action of 05 - 12 July, 73 wb: 11170.091 S=6 1414
UT 2150-1700 SOH Xi Wang Zhi Sheng Chi 1-7 0607 UT<<<<<<`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 9580, Sept 15 at 0120, CRI English via CUBA is
splashing upon 9570, CRI English via ALBANIA, lessened by LSB tuning.
Commies vs Commies vs Commies! Maybe not such a good idea to run them
only 10 kHz apart, altho not synchronized with an extra satellite hop
to reach Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13557, 13627, 13767, 13848 approx. centers, Sept 15 at 1333,
barely detectable FM spurblobs with F# tone from RHC 13700-AM, as RHC
fails to provide a useful FM service today; something`s always wrong
at RHC. The one around 13627 is somewhat readable, and I notice that
the F# tone is also JB audible on 13700-AM, but not on 13740-AM, at
1336 as `En Contacto` is underway. Hey Arnie, this would be a great
topic for you to discuss/explain in English and/or Spanish, rather
than boring QSLs-on-the-air, etc., of possible interest to only one
listener. At 1426 recheck, traces of FM but no mod around 13771,
13629, as blobs shift. BTW, 13700 & FM constellation came on air late,
still unthere at first check 1306 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** GREECE. 9420, Sept 15 at 0130, great Greek music from ERT,
S9+10/20. But it will be off 24 hours later on UT Mondays (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 11659.970, Sept 15 at 0124, VIRI IS, 0126 suptorted Spanish
during trihour starting at 2350 from Sirjan. If Iran can`t keep its SW
frequencies accurate, how can we expect them to enrich Uranium
properly? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 640, Sept 15 at 1308 UT and still 1315 UT, dead air from
KWPN Moore, but too much signal to let KFI thru this late; at least
Okies may still hear stupid sportstalk in English now on sibling 930
WKY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1999 monitoring: confirmed Sat Sept
14 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, S8-S9 after 2059 IS/ID loop, upcut joining
WOR missing my first eight words, at ``1999---``.

Confirmed UT Sunday Sept 15 at 0328 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, about 15
minutes into so started circa 0313; VG S9+10 with some storm crashes
from Iowa.

** U S A. Re our AAAWWW reports for Sept 14, John Carver explains:
``Glenn. Jason works for WBCQ. At present time he's working with the
FM station, I believe. He's been associated with the station for years
and pops up now and then on the SW. Tim usually refers to him as Jay
of Son. I have no idea what his last name is.`` And at 2306 UT Sat
Sept 14, John says ``TimTron is doing his Area 51 show live from the
station tonight and Jason is sitting in with him again. John`` (Glenn

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Sept 15 at 0100, WTWW-2 with rock music, not
`Theatre Organ in the Ozarx` as claimed on far-outdated website; not
checked this week whether at 2330 Sat when it has also been missing
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1280, Sept 15 at 1317 UT, my semi-local KSOK Arkansas City
KS seems to be off; instead two weak signals: one from NE/SW with
gospel huxter, not its musical format; 1319 another fades up from
NW/SE with income-tax ad. 1329 first one into Lord`s Prayer and
benedixion, outro as a Lutheran program, 1330 KSOK ID! and into music.
So KSOK must be on power greatly reduced from 1 kW ND; axually I had
already noticed it weak yesterday.

As for the perpendicular signal, could be much-wanted KPRV Poteau OK,
or maybe WODT New Orleans, or KWHI Brenham TX. KBNO Denver might be
more likely except it`s listed Spanish.

1280 also has hiss from adjacent IBOC: I suspect de 1270, KRXO
Claremore OK, but NRC AM Log unshows it as I, rather KFLC 50 kW
Benbrook (Metroplex) TX, which is still in Spanish but can`t be from
defunct ESPN-D (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VIETNAM [non]. 7315, Sept 15 at 0117, VOV via WHRI in Vietnamese,
not English as had been, while Viet was registered at 0130 when
English has been running. Seems you can never depend on WHRI to play
which language in which segment of the bihour relay (Glenn Hauser, OK,

UNIDENTIFIED. 3325, Sept 15 circa 1250, JBA carrier again, from
Bougainville or Indonesia? Ron Howard says he was not monitoring
yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9200, Sept 15 at 0118, S9-S6 of open carrier, mystery
continues altho I have not bothered to rereport it for some weeks.
Possibly an RTTY station QRX for rare beepery? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
