** ALASKA. 9580, April 27 at 1421, VP S4-S5 rock music, presumed KNLS
as now scheduled for English this hour on what will always be for us
the #1 Radio Australia frequency before it self-destructed. Recall
that right after that, as I suggested, WRMI registered 9580 at 0900-
2100, thus ``reserving`` it but never implemented, much less an RA/ABC
relay whether the Aussies liked it or not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13739.240, April 27 at 1342, RHC knocked itself off-frequency
again, VG. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** IRAN. 11660, April 27 at 0243, YL talking, eventually recognized as
Spanish on fluttery S9/+10 signal; S Asian music, 0247 mixed with
sounders uttering times and SW frequencies of several VRII SS
broadcasts, and some on satellite, off at 0250:34*. This one is three
hours long from 2350, 500 kW, 328 degrees from Sirjan for parts of
CIRAFs 7, 10 and 11, i.e. crossing N America from the tip of Greenland
to New Orleans, close to Mexico City. A mostly night path starting to
propagate summerlish. HFCC shows Spanish also on 7230 at 2350-0120,
and 9550 at 0020-0320: strange, offset times. Also has Spanish to
Spain mornings and evenings (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 26 at 2220 check, VOT English is on today,
fair. And so is erroneous German at 2313 check, still only fair (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1979 monitoring: confirmed first
American SW broadcast, Friday April 26 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, good, not
upcut at start, but final number ``1979`` overlapped by fill music.
Also confirmed UT Saturday April 27 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, fair.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.17v, UT Sat April 27 at 0004, WBCQ, Allan Weiner from
Deland of Fla opening what he has just renamed from today, ``Allan And
Angela Worldwide`` in honour of his co-host wife (who rarely says
much), and tells Larry Will to change it on the website: not yet; so
now it`s AAAWW. Soon says the 500 kW Superstation is getting close to
on-air testing (like it was two weeks ago). AAAWW also on 9330+v
instead of TOMBS; something else on 5130+v; and no signal a tall on
3265-v. Have not heard yet from John Carver for the rest of the story
this week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9475 & 5830, April 26 at 2331, neither WTWW-1 frequency is
on the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9265V, UT Sat April 27 at 0240, beepery from Kim`s
`Shortwave Radiogram` via WINB, and yes, this transmitter is still
wobbling. I wonder if that degrade SWRG decode? Maybe not if BFO not
engaged (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 11610, April 27 at 0245, call-in about Luther on the
Catholic Radio Network, S9/+20. Did he repent on deathbed? It`s WEWN`s
new English frequency overnight I had not noticed before, since ex-
11520 was easily overlooked. This one fades to JBA carrier by 0252.

EWTN website still shows B-18 sked of 11520, et al.! :
http://ewtn.org/radio/freq.htm
So check HFCC A-19 registrations, which may be excessive beyond usage:
English 00-09 11610, 09-13 9470, 19-24 15610
Spanish 00-14 5970, 14-24 12050
BTW, CNR westward from Beijing is also on 11610 at 23-13. Not
``Bejing`` as WEWN spells its 335-degree target on 9470 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ALGERIA [non]. 6125, April 25 at 0535, S7-S9 song, choral almost
hymnic, mixed with talk in French. Now scheduled here is TDA via
FRANCE, and certainly not the Qur`an service (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CONGO. 6115, VP signal S5-S8 at 0534 UT April 25; almost sure it`s
Brazzaville in French, while it`s too early for the other 6115, Nikkei
Japan at 14:34 local time some 4-5 hours before sunset (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 12000, April 25 at 1336, RHC S5-S6 // 11760, and 6000, of
which this is the second harmonic. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5900, April 26 at 0537, JBA carrier, presumably RHC leapfrog
of 6100 over 6000, reconfirming from same site; 6100 is S9+20 but JBM;
6000 is S9-S7 and also JBM. 6165 is S9-S8 and undermodulated. Only
6060 is any good, S9+20 and plenty mod. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6000 & 6100, April 26 at 1207, RHC active on both but neither
second harmonic propagating. 6100 also has CCI from CRI Russian,
Commies vs Commies. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EQUATORIAL GUINEA. 5005, April 25 at 0538 music at S4-S6, presumed
Bata, same time as hearing 6115 presumed Brazzaville (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA [and non]. 3325, April 26 at 1157, dead air at S3-S5 --
then I detect a trace of modulation. Ron Howard has been observing
dead air from VOI Palangkaraya for most of April, so the other could
be a trace of co-channel NBC Bougainville. There is also a JBA carrier
on 3260, Madang PNG? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 6070, April 25 at 1303, Shiokaze sounder under
CFRX, and similar on 5920, the two current frequencies for Seabreeze
in English only on Thursdays, both very poor (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 650, April 25 at 1155, 10 minutes after Enid sunrise,
Mexican music and Spanish, fast SAH, presumed the usual SRS dominator
XETNT, Los Mochis, Sinaloa. Faded by 1200. However, next morning, see
below:

On April 26 pre-sunrise I tune the lowband for Mexicans still
propagating:

540, April 26 at 1126, potosina ads, i.e. XEWA SLP (I was also hearing
it after 0500 NA with ``Los Cuarenta`` slogan.). Nulling this at 1126,
I have another Mexican, no doubt XETX Chihuahua which typically
dominates a bit later.

550, April 26 at 1127, Mexican music loops WSW, which would be XEPL,
CuauhtÃmoc, Chihuahua, the only N/W Mexican, dominating for now before
KFRM overtakes.

650, April 26 at 1128, NO signals at all on 650, nor any XE on 610,
sibling station to XETNT, XEGS Guasave, Sinaloa. Strange, and
wondering if these too are giving up on MW. Both are supposed to be
24h per 2018 IRCA Mexican Log.

710, April 26 at 1136, ``primera ediciÃn`` of newscast from BM Radio,
i.e. XEDP, CuauhtÃmoc, Chihuahua; not off-frequency this time. 1151
news of marijuana bust in Delicias, citing grams, then mentions
Oclajoma!

800, April 26 at 1128, ad for Laboratorios Camacho from Los Ãngeles,
i.e. one of the major advertisers on XEROK JuÃrez; with KQCV OKC
easily nulled. But a few minutes later XEROK has vanished, and is
normally inaudible at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 21, April 25 at 1454 UT, KUOT-LD, 4 kW ERP, OKC,
briefly decodes with slight tropo enhancement, I hurry to 21-6 to try
to identify this subchannel. Only KUOT on all PSIPs; and no bug on it,
but infomercial with this link: teamlifestyle.com which forwards to:
https://www.asarx.tv/ not very helpful. W9WI.com shows 21-6 as
``Revn`` (Revelation?)
http://www.w9wi.com/web/tv-channels/21-mx.html
but the others don`t match my last log as in DXLD 19-15 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. Level-2 tropo enhancement blob around Enid as far as
Tulsa on Hepburn map, April 26 at 1410+ UT correlates with what I am
seeing, decodes on RF 20, 19-1 KQCW-HD, and RF 28, 44-1 Ion, plus many
more Bad signals on most lower UHF channels still funxioning. And some
on hi-VHF.

Also, RF 24, 25-1 megawatt KOKH OKC FOX is not decoding, pointing to
CCI from the 600-watt KTUL extra channel in Tulsa. BTW, KOKH 25-3 has
not been Weather Nation for many months, despite W9WI.com.

However, OKC`s 7.2 kW on RF 42, KBZC-LD, manages to decode just fine.
NOT in Enid, just the city of license, unfathomably (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 12065, April 25 at 1338, something in English, CRI? No,
not // Cuba 9570. Listed as BBCWS via SINGAPORE this hour only (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1978 monitoring: confirmed UT
Thursday April 25 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair S7-S9 --- the last airing

** U S A. 15770, April 26 at 1329, a few seconds of beepery as the new
Friday 1300 time for Kim`s `SW Radiogram` is concluding on WRMI, music
fill, vintage WNYW-style ID, and 1330 intro Alameda Bible Fellowship
for synthetic English Bible readings, Jeremiah 34; seems they are
stuck on this book, mentioned elsewhen? 15770 has been extended an
hour earlier before 1400 overturning to SMTV (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 890, April 26 at 1133 UT, with KTLR OKC nulled,
``EscÃchenos, la nueva radio cristiana``, i.e. KVOZ; searching on that
slogan leads to two of my own logs in 2011 & 2012, so it`s hardly new!
NRC AM Log shows CoL as Del Mar Hills, with address in McAllen, so a
suburb of that? NO. Del Mar Hills is not to be found even in the
large-scale Rand McNally road atlas. Radio-locator shows it`s Laredo:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, April 25 at 1146-
1152 as I happen to awaken just at LSR 1145: 864, 882, 1035, 1548,
792, but by far the strongest is 1098 from west, the all-night open
carrier from V7AB, Marshall Islands. The others are too weak for a
definite DF, but probably from WSW = S Pacific rather than NW = E Asia
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, April 26 at 1138:
702, 837-WSW with two beating, 1098, 774 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
