** ALGERIA. 531 kHz, Jan 12 at 0218 check, some audio from RTA Jil FM
is separable from 530 stations; first noted at 0006 as the strongest
of the TA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 223-MCW kHz, Jan 12 at 0727 UT, dash and YYW, 1000 watt NDB
at Armstrong, Ontario (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. This from Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria explains why I was
reporting Chinese on new 7665 as early as Dec 27 at 1540:
``TAJIKISTAN, Frequency change of Radio Free Asia, January 10,
1500-1700 NF 7665 DB 250 kW / 110 deg to EaAs Chinese, ex 5820``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13630 & 13769 approx., Jan 12 at 1514, FM/AM spurblob out of
13700; also 13839, but no match on the minus side which would be circa
13561, rather our local ISM RF ID? noises. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sunday January 12 at 1518, RHC overmodulated and
distorted here but OK on // 15230. Recheck at 1631, 15140 the same
just concluding slightly overtime Esperanto // 11760. Recheckk at
1857, 15140 still OM/distorted during multi-lingual ID. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 1300, Jan 12 at 0708, corrida song solo by OM dominates,
from WSW, XEP Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua; 0711 ``Radio Mexicana,
Nuestras Noticias`` ID but NO news now! and another solo song by YL.
This has a better signal than most Mexicans, even 800 XEROK. IRCA Log
says ``Fiesta Mexicana`` frequently announces 40 kW, but night power
unknown. Had been and still is listed as 0.2 kW night in WRTH 2020,
and agrees on the slogan I heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1530, Jan 12 at 0718 UT, Spanish ID mentions Tulsa and
FM. So Spanish at night isn`t necessarily KGBT. KXTD Wagoner OK is a 5
kW direxional DAYTIMER. NRC AM Log shows its FMs are on 104.9 and
100.3. Could this explain it? Should not; Paul Walker reported last
Nov 7:

``OK, this has to be one of the oddest explanations I’ve ever read for
requesting Special Temporary Authority. KXTD-AM 1530 Wagoner, OK is
requesting permission to operate at lower than its licensed 5000 watts
and to do it Non directional after a trampoline flying through the air
during a tornado toppled one of their towers`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** PERU. 5980, Jan 11 at 2353, JBA carrier from R. Chaski vs heavier
jamming than usual, so I can`t pinpoint the instant of autocutoff, but
approx. 2353:55.5*. That would be 9.5 seconds earlier than 2354:05* on
Jan 6, 5 days ago, right near the 1.9 second average slippage per
noctem (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 13590.057, Jan 11 at 1942, discussion in
American English, like CRI. No, only some VOA sites would be so far
off frequency, Pinheira as listed for 19-20, 100 kW at 138 degrees
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Sat Jan 11 at 2354, VOT IS is still running
after English --- prospects good for the collision I have been
predicting: 2356 starts inserting German IDs zweimal per minute. The
Mighty KBC via Nauen, GERMANY is not quite on yet for its weekly
broadcast also to N America. *2359, there it is, carrier on, atop TRT
still going, making SAH of about 96/minute = 1.6 Hz. TRT
sesqui-second-late ToH timesignal fires just as KBC starts modulating.
Next few minutes I can`t be sure VOT still be on; but at 0028 UT Sun
Jan 12 I bring up 5960 at UTwente SDR, to find TRT German way on top!
of KBC, and still at 0051 toward end of extraneous German hour. So
it`s a big mess inside Europe, and probably worse clash than here,
eastward in N America. BTW on this occasion, not hearing any sign of
off-frequency-minus East Turkistan, which could QRM KBC even without
TRT. By choosing 5960 repeatedly of all possible frequencies, despite
my warnings, KBC must deserve what it gets, tsk2 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 329 kHz, Jan 12 at 0226 UT, ND beacon PMV, which is 25 watts
from Plattsmouth, Nebraska,

365 kHz, Jan 12 at 0222 UT, ND beacon HQG, which is 25 watts from
Hugoton, Kansas; I was tuned to 363-USB.

Olathe - Herbb, Kansas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2016 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
January 11 at 2058 UT on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, my intonation barely
recognizable in hi noise level for the 2030v broadcast.

Also confirmed UT Sun Jan 12 at 0431 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville

** U S A. 980, Jan 12 at 0009 UT amid my JBA TA carrier bandscan, I
notice an open carrier upon this TA/NA frequency, still so at 0014.
DFing makes it NE/SW, and surely my nearest KMBZ Kansas City MO which
normally dominates at night here, and of which there is no other sign.
Main QRM is Spanish music NNW/SSE, making SAH of 204/minute = 3.4 Hz,
very likely KQUE Houston market TX. Can it be that no one is paying
attention at one of KC`s major(?) radio stations? Transmitter site is
east of Stateline (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1090, what in the world is going on at KAAY Little Rock?
Even more strangeness than heard last night: Jan 12 at 0655 UT, W&M
discussing: pizza! But audio is continuously breaking up severely like
internet buffering. Then mentions ``see it``, a smokeless grill, so
this is audio of a TV infomercial (taking a cue from co-channel XEAU
Monterrey which does the same thing in Spanish at these hours). Sound
is horrible. ``Exclusive TV offer`` runs past ToH 0700 UT, 0702 ending
disclaimer and NO ID, but from DF and usual dominance, I am sure it`s
KAAY. At 0704 UT, still breaking up, starts `Judge Judy` TV show!
(Yesterday it was NBC-TV Today Hoda Kotb hour.). 0724 UT recheck,
still J.J. breaking up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 5800, UT Sat Jan 11 at 0133, RAE AAM, Spanish via
WRMI is in Friday DX program whose name is ``actualidaddx.com.ar`` ---
something about a station on 12005; then far-advance news about the
Radio Öömrang annual broadcast Feb 21 at 1600-1700 on 15215; then a
long item about stations in Perú, until closing at 0142; 0143 next
program is `Migrantes y refugiados`. I wonder if same DX content in
English translation appear next semihour 0200-0230 on 9395? Did not
get to check that.

Despite my numerous reports of the correct frequency and time for RAE
Spanish via WRMI, Conexión Digital continues to ignore them and
publish totally wrong info about their own station:
``RAE, Radiodifusión Argentina al Exterior:
HORA UTC KHZ DIAS
0100-0200 O-6060 23456
2200-2300 O-5010 12345``

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2016 monitoring: Confirmed at 2300
Jan 10 via WRMI 9955 --- jamming did not abate a bit until about 2318,
and finally gone by 2327.

Confirmed much better jamming-free, UT Sat Jan 11 at 0130 on WRMI
5850, and much weaker 5010 which fades out to storm noise by 0148;
while 7780 has been replaced by music --- APS Radio! Without notice.
BTW, following WOR at 0200 on 5850 was a VORW dated 8 August 2019!

** U S A [and non]. Some minor updates/correxions to WORLD OF RADIO
2016:

About Mongolia 7260 English scheduling: the one-hour-earlier Saturday
broadcast is at 00-01 UT; the time 08-09 was local time.

About beacon A on 2097.3: I meant to say Oct 11 as the date I noted it
had been missing, not Aug 11.

Also, we have learnt later that SPAIN has resumed 9690 as of Jan 10;

About Radio Onda ASBL, Brazilian music via Netherlands at new time
00-17 on 5940, but has anyone ever heard it? A later report:

``Rádio Onda has moved to 5940 kHz from 6060 kHz. Heard testing today
at 1100 on 5940.05v kHz, weak here in Finland. (Mauno Ritola on WRTH
Facebook group, 5 Jan)

(Radio Onda's entry is on page 459/460 of WRTH 2020 under Belgium -
though SW licence is for 1 kW from site in Netherlands see:
https://www.radioonda.be/ondes-courtes)

"Welcome to Radio Onda's website! We are broadcasting in DAB+ from
Brussels. Here you can listen, in addition to the good French music,
the best international hits 80s and 90s, and of course, the beautiful
Brazilian music! Listen to the broadcast of Radio Onda also on 6060
[sic] kHz" https://ondaasbl.wixsite.com/english

"Radio Onda is managed by ASBL Onda, a non-profit association based in
Bruxellas [sic], Belgium. Our activities are aimed at the
dissemination of Brazilian culture by the old continent. In addition
to webradio, we have a 6030 [sic] kHz Shortwave broadcaster from
Holland, with 1 KW of power, covering much of Europe. The programming
of the station is quite varied, and here you will hear from MPB,
National Rock, Samba, Country, among other national styles. This way,
we bring you a great variety of music, with lots of humor and
information, for an audience not only Brazilian, but also Belgian and
European. ASBL Onda is a member of HFCC, an international organization
for shortwave radio frequency coordination, in addition to the
Geneva-based ITU." (translated from Portuguese at

(N.B. Voz Missionaria, Brazil also uses 5940 kHz, though off channel
around 5939.7 kHz)(Alan Pennington, bdxc-news iog)``

{many others then report hearing it Jan 10-11, at least via remotes}

To which Wolfgang Bueschel replies:

``Yes is A-20 season registered already, start as from March 29, 2020.

(Glenn Hauser, WOR iog)

** U S A. (7490, 5130), UT Sat Jan 11 at 0000, monitoring WBCQ 7490
webcast, FKB preacher runs over mixing with canned ID; `WTO` theme of
`AAAWWW` plays, but soon interrupted by Pirate Joe substituting, and
he fades out the WTO, enough of that, before it finishes. Meanwhile,
both 7490v and 5130 are JBA, so I leave it to John Carver to report on
whatever fill this hour:

``Tonight's show started on time this evening. Very poor signal on
7490 and a little better signal on 5130. Pirate Joe is the host this
evening. He starts off by telling the listeners to create their own
shows and put them on WBCQ. Some talk about fun and our country's
history of not allowing fun going back to the original Puritan
settlers. 5130 started to go downhill about 0115 and getting difficult
to copy. Will listen to the noise in case the signal picks up again.
Later on I hear George Bush being mentioned and a bit later something
about Iraq wanting us out. It sounded like he may have started playing
music around 0147. At 0155 there was a station ID but only one so they
must have corrected the problem of constant station IDs for five
minutes in a row. As near as I can tell program ended on time. John,
Mid-North Indiana``

Too bad, isn`t it, that none of the Superstation project is available
to make Classic WBCQ programming somehow audible on SW (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12160, Sat Jan 11 at 1607, WWCR church choir with modulation
breaking up. Scheduled this hour is `The Church of the Lord Jesus
Christ of the Apostolic Faith` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1090, Sat Jan 11 at 0702 UT, KAAY Little Rock with series of
jokes to a laughing audience, stand-up? Not the usual
gospel-huxtering; XEAU Monterrey at right angle needs to be nulled
instead of vice-versa; 0705 ads; 0708 opening the NBC-TV Today show
hour with Hoda and Jenna for January 10! but no video here. Seems a
drastic format change. Maybe this is not `Beaker Street`, but a
related story sent on by Rick Barton, AZ; very vague about when B.S.
would be on:

“Beaker Street,” Clyde Clifford’s pioneering late-night radio show, is
back on the air. The program debuted on 50,000-watt AM radio station
KAAY in 1966 and established itself as an underground dispatch — and
as an antidote to commercial radio’s milquetoast formulas and
penchants for repeating the same 100 classic rock tracks on a
carousel. Clifford favored deeper and longer album cuts than daytime
mainstream radio had patience for, and because he broadcast the show
from KAAY’s Wrightsville location, where the station’s transmitter was
located, he set his mellow narration to a backdrop of freaky space
sounds to muffle the transmitter’s hum — a trademark that so defined
the show that it had to be kept, even when “Beaker Street” found life
in other, more noise-controlled studios.

Now, with Clifford’s (real name: Dale Seidenschwarz) retirement from a
decades-long day job in the rearview mirror (barely), the beloved rock
radio bulletin is slated for a revival on Arkansas Rocks, a coalition
of veteran radio talent that, like Clifford, skews less toward stuff
like “Hotel California” and more toward the likes of “Traveller in
