** CHINA. 11120, May 27 at 1430, CNR1 jammer, poor S2-4
11460, May 27 at 1431, CNR1 jammer, S3-S4
12500, May 27 at 1433, CNR1 jammer, poor S3-S5,and // 11120.

All of these fit the timespan in Aoki/NDXC for such jammers against
Sound of Hope, Miaoli, Taiwan. Never the same set on from one day to
the next. Then bandscan 8.9-15.0 MHz found no more WOOB jammers by
1438 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. See USA: AM & FM midday bandscans including some OKies

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1983 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 26 at 2145 the 2130 on WRMI 7780, JBA vs high noise level.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 27 on WRMI 9395, S9+10, fair vs noise.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 27 on WRMI 7780, very poor

Also confirmed UT Monday May 27 on Area 51 webcast; and at 0328 on
WBCQ 5130.4 vs HNL

Also confirmed UT Monday May 27 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, VG S9+10, a few
seconds overlap by preceding Czech song fill

I am often lunching during the following, but thanks to Alan Roe,
Teddington UK, for checking May 27: ``World of Radio 1983 heard
Monday 1815-1845 UT with strong signal on 7290 kHz via IRRS via
Romania.``

Next:
0800 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW [2 editions], ND
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955, to SSE [fingers crossed to stay on air]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v [and/or 2130], to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780, to NE

[it appears we will now be running on a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, so
freshest new airings are on weekends]

** U S A. May 27 starting at 1900 UT, less than one semihour after
local mean noon, bandscans on caradio from central Enid at a fairly
quiet parking lot, at least so at the long end of MW/low end of MF.
No storm noise now, but increasing line noise higher in the AM band.
I skip over many frequencies, only some notable items:

530, `K530AM`, Vance AFB is still off and maybe gone forever, rather
than inane loops of Ad Council PSAs, interspersed with occasional
imaginary IDs and never heard with any traffic or emergency info. As
in DXLD 18-30, it had been ``off the air again for a few days`` as of
July 18, 2018 --- and never heard since despite regular chex. If it
does resume, I shall be sure to report it.

560, fast SAH, maybe 20 Hz, presumably KWTO MO and KLZ CO at the
limits of their groundwaves 300+ and 400+ miles. But MWOffsets has
KLZ at .0000 and KTWO only 0.3 Hz away at .9997 --- nothing anywhere
near 20 Hz away

630, JBA talk, presumably KHOW Denver with far better Ogallala
Aquifer conductivity than KYFI St Louis beyond the Ozarx

650, JBA talk, presumably KGAB Orchard Valley WY (Cheyenne) as
previously under optimum GW conditions, like the Denverites

670, ``Call to Freedom`` program with Denver address: KLTT Commerce
City CO (Denver), a regular at the margins with 50 kW; no WSCR today

1070-, KFTI Wichita KS, country, is OFF! Very unusual; Memorial
holiday break? Hope they are fixing their off-frequency-minus
transmitter; yeah, sure. KNX beware. But this allows weak 1080 KRLD
Dallas to be heard without splash. KFTI still off at 1948 check

1090, weak religious talk, no doubt 10 kW KEXS Excelsior Springs MO
(Kansas City); highest frequency daytime GW from that area, 300+
miles, continues to amaze me

1130, KLEY Wellington KS, still OFF as has been for some weeks now

1190, medium SAH, presumably our two closest but also too far: KVSV
Beloit KS, and KFXR Dallas TX

1230, WBBZ Ponca City OK, is OFF! Very unusual for this semi-local
which has not been noted with any techdiffs. Another holidayer? Still
off at 1949 recheck. Nothing else audible, like the only other Okie,
which I *need*, KADA, where else but, Ada?

1460, KZUE El Reno OK, still on unlike offknocked by previous
tornado. Spanish talk, and PSA in Spanish for ``The Marines``! So not
plugged into Mexico City yet.

Re the name of the hmotel in El Reno hit by tornado, I finally got a
glimpse on KFOR of their sign still standing, American Budget Inn, I
think. Then reporter verbalized it: American Value Budget Inn, or
Budget Value per the grafix. Confusing.

1580, KLTR Blackwell OK, now it`s 1909 UT, dead air, while sibling
1020 KOKP Perry OK is nominal. I think there has been flooding in
Blackwell

88.3 and 92.1 Enid are still open carrier/dead air; nearby 89.3 &
90.3 are nominal.

93.5, rock?, fading in and out, Es? 1927 ``My Country 93-5``, so the
only hit on the WTFDA Database is KKDT Burdett KS, 95 kW H&V, 304.8
meters. Why should a town of 247 have such a big radio station? Maybe
because it`s midway between Jetmore and Larned. Wherever there
happens to be a kilofoot tower available? Burdett is 248 km = 154
stmi NW from Enid. Tropo from KS is slightly enhanced

101.5, Spanish but not gospel huxter KOCD nearby Okeene, still off.
Not to be faked out by ``La Mexicana``, fading 1918 ads and ID for
101.5 and 92.9, i.e. 100 kW KSMM Liberal KS way out by Guymon in the
OK Panhandle, relaying 92.9 KMML Cimarrón KS (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK,

Logs
** CUBA. 12200, May 26 at 0606, RHC English S7-S9 but undermodulated,
2 x 6100 harmonic becoming reliable. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, May 26 at 0600, VON AWOL again, no signal altho it
was there 24 hours earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, UT Sun May 26 at 0300-0400 UT, KUCO-FM with
`Weekend Radio`, comedy stuff from WCLV we listen to every week now
if not an hour earlier via WCLV itself webcast. Should have, as
ruined on KUCO, interrupted 5 or 6 times this hour for tornado
warnings, with those horrible tones, and instead of clear talk, a
pileup of multiple echoes as different stations --- nodes? in the
chain are all coming in at once! Isn`t it about time the EAS got
their act together?!?! Not necessarily blaming KUCO for this
situation altho did not check how they were coming across other
stations. This was the hour when the tornado hit El Reno. I`ve yet to
hear any newscast utter the *names* of the motel or trailer park. Is
this info being deliberately suppressed? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K. 12015, May 26 at 0614, BBCWS interview in English, S8-S9,
matched with // 9440. HFCC shows both as Woofferton but 9440 supposed
to be in French. Accurate language info in HFCC is not assured (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1983 monitoring: confirmed UT Sun
May 26 at 0330 in progress on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO. Far too much storm
noise to detect just where in the show this was, just recognize my
own voice.

Also confirmed by ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, Logs in Friol, Tecsun

** U S A. 5085, Sat May 25 at 2329 tune-in, WTWW-2 has already
started `Theater Organ in the Ozarx`, so I listen on webcast. Unseems
stereo this time; lots of familiar tunes making one wonder how
limited the repertoire be of TOITO. May be playing old recordings
originally mono. Also unusually no announcements by Bob Heil until
2357.

And by 0159 UT May 26, WTWW-1 is OFF both 9475 and 5830 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15760, May 26 after 1600 and 1700, no signal from WHRI.
Figured, as did EiBi, that the Indy 500 carace, a dangerous exercise
in futility, would be carried again this year, especially since 15760
is A-19 registered available to WHRI all day, 250 kW at 315 degrees,
but I think has not been in daily use. Still not (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7840, May 26 at 0602, JBA carrier. Matches another on
3920, maybe a ham and her harmonic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

Logs
** ALGERIA [non]. 6050, May 24 at 0435, fair ME songs and then Arabic
announcement, i.e. TDA via FRANCE as scheduled this hour only. But
certainly not the Qur`an service as listed.

HCJB is quite weak here until 0230, but extends two nights a week to
0500 when there will be a collision --- or rather Issoudun will wipe
out Pico Pichincha. HFCC says days 6 & 7 which mean Friday and
Saturday, but no sign of it now, so really UT Saturday and Sunday?
WRTH shows no such extension beyond 0230/0235 anynight, degraded to
only 1 kW. Nor does Aoki/NDXC, reminding us that Tibet is also on
6050 thruout, but it`s daytime there. EiBi does show HCJB at 0233-
0500 Fri & Sat only, in Spanish, not Kichwa. Need to check whether
HCJBe there just before 0400 on which nights. UT Saturday May 25 on
6050 I do have a JBA carrier 0232-0237+; kept thinking it cut off,
but merely fading to nothing and back up. Still there at 0328 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.97, May 24 at 1710-1815, tnx to tip from Dan
Robinson to the WOR iogroup, LRA36 on the air Friday and heard via
Pardinho SP SDR in Brasil, which seems to be the best one for this.
The entire hour+ was music, no IDs or any announcements: a tragic
loss of opportunity to diffuse Antarctic culture, politix, native
music, history, scientific achievements, etc. Also could discourage
QSL seeking with no significant program content to report. Bruce
Churchill also recommends the much further SDR in Iceland, a total-
water path like SP (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. 5045-USB, May 24 at 0954 I happen to awaken so a rare
chance to check for WORLD OF RADIO on Unique Radio, now scheduled at
both 0930 & 1000 Fridays. Not surprisingly I get no trace of the low
-power signal here; but I do have a JBA carrier on 5055 from presumed
4KZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 9570, May 24 at 1332, CRI relay S9 but just barely
modulated; much softer than 9640 RHC. Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ECUADOR. See ALGERIA [non]

** EGYPT. 9900.175V, (meaning varying slightly, audible in real time)
May 24 at 2147, JBA talk by YL, 2153 ME music, 2201 talk; S5-S7 on
inside longwire due to storm; quick attach of outside LW boosts to
S8-S9 but still far too much storm noise. Surely the R. Cairo English
broadcast scheduled on 9900 at 2115-2245 but has been inactive as x-
ed in Aoki. HFCC shows 125 kW at 325 degrees from Abis to W Europe;
and the closest thing to a North American service by extension. I
don`t recall any previous reports of it so far off-frequency but
certainly a Cairo capability (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 92.1 WBFM, May 24 circa 2030 UT and earlier, later chex,
KAMG-LP Enid in open carrier only. That was quick: As in previous
report, I had just found it reactivated after 21 months on May 22 as
``Radio Vivir``.

Suspect another cynical example of going on the air *only* to
preserve a license, but not interested enough to keep broadcasting,
yet preventing anyone else from getting the frequency. At FCC FM
Query, I do find that the original KAMG-LP was granted a license to
cover on February 27, 2007. and clicking on the pdf Authorization,
``This license expires 3:00 a.m. local time, June 01, 2013``. Another
six years would be a week from now! So at least the licensee is
paying attention to the calendar.

While I am at it, a quick check of other area FM stations with dead
air:

88.3, K202BY, Family Radio translator has been open carrier for many
many months, meanwhile getting an STA to be *off* the air, which is
not the same thing as on the air transmitting nothing! Perhaps they
can`t tell the difference back at KEBR-FM HQ in California?

89.1, K206CA, Oasis Network translator of KNYD(FM); often dead air
and this time has been for a few days at least.

90.3, KHEV Fairview, relay of KHYM seems on but dead air now. Maybe
caused by recent/current storms. With 490 watts, gets into west side
of Enid best.

101.5, KOCD Okeene, satellite of KWDW-LP 93.9 OKC is still out of air
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENINIG DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 9690, Friday May 24 at 2202, REE`s Justin Coe introducing a
4-movement serious music piece, sounded like ``In Memory of Tonal
Music`` by Strauss, but that does not compute. Podcast archive is
running a week behind, but per WOR Hitlist, should eventually show
at:
http://www.rtve.es/alacarta/audios/emision-en-ingles/
S9+10 but vs heavy storm noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1983 monitoring: [see also
AUSTRALIA]. Confirmed first NAm SWBC, Friday May 24 at 2200 on WRMI
9955, poor in storm noise but I listen to the whole thing until 2229
to be sure it`s intact with no transmitter failures.

Also confirmed UT Saturday May 25 starting at 0130 on WRMI 7780, fair
S9/+10 but still too much storm noise. Followed familiar bit of World
Music fill at 0129 and Ian McFarland ID at 0129.5, no WOR upcut.

** U S A. 7490.16v, UT Sat May 25 at 0000, WBCQ William Tell Overture
introducing `AAAWWW`; heavy storm noise so I copy only bits, not
necessarily correctly. 9330+ is a bit better for a while: crazy,
crazy country; the $ 15 special deal on 5130 is over; could get $ 200
an hour. Recheck 0048 with a caller discussing Iran; now down to
7490.14v. Thales has mailed out something today. Water and big tubes
don`t mix. That`s why there have been no tests the past week.
Everything is under warranty. Prayer, etc., runs over a bit to end of
AAAWWW at 0103. John Carver`s computer was out last week, but fills
in details this week:

``Tonight's show started a few seconds early on 7490 after a bit of
fill music. Allan and Angela in the studio. Tom is there also working
on the computers. Allan seems to be in a better mood this evening.
Allan begins with a strange musing on Memorial Day and wonders why we
need war and memorial days anymore. This quickly morphs into a one
sided dialog with god. Allan then stated that Angela had gotten a
Maine driver's license and is working on her US citizenship.

Said that there had been some setbacks with the transmitter for the
superstation and they were waiting on parts and a crew from the
transmitter manufacturer to install them. They had a water leak in
the water cooling system and the PA tube and its socket were damaged.
Tom mentioned that it would take four men to move the tube. Allan
said he wasn't impressed with the design of the new transmitter.

Phone call at 0045 from a woman with a reception report and it turned
out she had recently been in Iran so that was discussed for awhile.
Reading of emails began at 0056. Closing prayer at at 0100. Show was
off the air at 0103. Some dead air for a few seconds and then some
music. 7490 was off the air at 0107. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn

** U S A. 9265V, UT Fri May 24 at 0400 tune-in to wobbly WINB playing
the Star Spangled Banner at S9+10/20, as if signing off; not quite:
then starts playing another version of SSB but talking over the first
part of it with sign-off message in anthem desecration. Plays to end
but at 0402: Dan Curtis wishes good day and wants to save me. ``Don`t
you want to go? I`m goin` to heaven ---`` and *then* cuts off the
air. Bye!! Seemed late hour for WINB, had been closing earlier, but
they are very flexible with schedule span depending on airtime sales.
Website shows now: daily except UT Sunday from 0300 is `Worship At
Home`, which we now know must be a full hour long. I think that`s
also on WRMI. Final WINB show UT Sunday starts at 0230, so probably
finishes an hour earlier at 0300. Annoyingly, WINB never publishes
its sign-off times, let alone true duration of programs. As for Dan
Curtis, he is not on the list at
http://winb.com/bypgmsch.htm
but he did not give any other title for his minis-try. Poor Dan! Or
was it Don. Off to heaven before he can even get started (Glenn
