** INTERNATIONAL INTERNET. Here`s another neat little program not only
on but produced at KUCO 90.1 and streaming. Many of the episodes are
in ``the rest of the story`` style with a big reveal at the end,
finding out who he has been talking about. I see that it is syndicated
by PRX to some other stations but I have not found an affiliate list.
They may be conveniently auditioned in groups of 5 at a time = less
than 14 minutes per week.

A Day to Remember with Kent Anderson
Weekdays: 8am & 5pm {CDT = 13 & 22 UT}

A Day To Remember is a daily journey into the treasures of history,
great and small.

Researched, written, and hosted by longtime KUCO broadcaster and
award-winning novelist Kent Anderson, A Day to Remember covers a wide
range of topics, ranging from ancient history to the 21st century:
battles and elections, inventions and adventures, art and culture,
science and spirit.

“It isn’t just a typical ‘this day in history’ module, and it isn’t a
lesson or a lecture,” says Anderson. “I’m telling stories. Some of
them will be familiar, famous events, and others will feature stories
from the past that we may not have heard so often.”

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 18 at 1520 UT, BAD undecodable signal from
Enid`s only local TV transmitter, K17JN-D with 3ABN network.
Presumably caused by DX QRM as there is mild tropo around here per
APRS map. Bandscan finds only two other BAD signals, on `open`
channels, RF 31 & 34. Soon K17JN recovers (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

24 hours after I was hearing Radio Caroline via 5130 WBCQ, between 06
and 07 UT May 18 it`s off the air again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF

** U S A. ``Yesterday, I was able to adjust the frequency plungers so
that I can now change frequency on #2 transmitter by remote control

WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11670-11675-11680, May 18 at 0617, DRM noise S9,
unlisted in HFCC, EiBi, Aoki, not even in
https://www.drmrx.org/drm-broadcasts-shortwave-by-frequency/
Same sound of noise on 11615-11620-11625 which is known to be Romania
in German during this semihour, slightly weaker S7. Per EiBi the only
other DRM stations at this time, in case they have QSYed from other
frequencies, are WINB, CRI and CNR1 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 0108 UT May 19

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, May 17 at 1936, Manuel Méndez in Spain
reports LRA36 already on the air this Wednesday. For a while it had
seemed they were on Saturdays only and there was no advance notice of
this. So I tune in at 2026. It`s JBA on the Mendoza, Argentina SDR,
but good S6/S7 into Buenos Aires, during a song; 2040 talk, ID as on
SW and streaming via Tierra del Fuego at HQ website. 2046 music, 2051
canned ID and talk about the silencio at Marambio base, with a brief
bit of noise at 2101 like wind in the mike. 2103 noticias australes by
YL, but by 2103 fade-out or off the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. 5990, May 17 at 0003, no signal into Georgia SDR;
had been CRI Spanish relay via CUBA, which may have been canceled, but
did not get around to rechecking later in hour.

24 hours later, May 18 at 0003, 5990 is on air with music but can`t be
sure it`s CRI. Yes, I can: // 9560 & 9800 into UTwente not synched.

9710 & 9590 are sked 0100-0300. Both confirmed into UTwente but 9710
stronger, at 0158 concluding in Spanish about the Chinese language,
0200 usual ToH theme music, no news. That completes my chex of all
previously scheduled CRI Spanish broadcasts on SW, which still exist
but without any current event coverage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12200, May 17 at 0642, RHC English again, S9 with some squeal
// fundamental 6100 weaker S7/S9. Nothing audible on 6100 X 3 = 18300,
which might be possible under optimum conditions, if not X 4 = 24400.
No other fundamentals still on. 6100 and therefore 12200 are off
already at next check 0651, before this hour can complete, frustrating
listeners? Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SLOVAKIA [non]. Further chex of RSI relays via WRMI, UT May 17: at
0047, 5850 // 7730 // 15770, subject adoption, so we know it is the
new Tue May 16 edition on System F as heard earlier.

0130 is the next scheduled RSI relay on 5800, but instead we hear NHK
World in English after a couple of false starts. This had been on
System K with the Jan 30 RSI program as heard at 0630 May 16.

NHK does not appear anywhere on the WRMI skedgrid now partially
updated as of May 12. It does now show 7730 as XMTR 2 at 44 degrees to
ENA, 24 hours, much but not all of it duplicating 15770 at same
azimuth for Europe.

0300 is next scheduled RSI relay supposedly on 7730, 7780 and 15770
--- but monitored on 7780 only, no date copied at outset but not the
Mon Jan 30 show, rather Tue May 16 one with something about European
summit in Iceland. 7730 & 15770 with SMTV instead. The transmitter
grid atop now shows that, not the program grid abottom.

At 0630 May 17, RSI again on 7730 and much weaker 15770, System H with
same Jan 30 show as 24 hours earlier and no doubt also previous 105
days intervening, mentioning a Jan 27 anniversary of something in WWII
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 11785, May 17 at 2200, VOT is not off the air
today, S7/S9 with timesignal; later compared to WWV as 12.5 seconds
late. Standard remark about inaccurate pipping; on another receiver
I`d already heard 17855 Spain`s more accurate timesig. Further chex
direct, despite constant squeal on the frequency, some distortion, and
too-accented announcers: 2217 `Whipping Piles` something about AI
systems; music break. 2225.5 two-minute multi-lingual ID filler reel.
2227.5 `Weekly Commentary` penned by that Jonathan again. 2251 the
multi-lingual ID filler reel *again* already; s/off, 2254 IS to
2255:58*. Something`s always awry at Ankara, erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UQKOGBANI [non]. 5130.06, May 17 at 0656, surprised to encounter
UK-orientated commercialstring after a bit of rock music and DJ; then
Radio Caroline ! IDs in passing. 0701 full ID, sounded like ``6-40``
instead of 648 kHz. Then back to DJ and rock, S7/S9.

Got to be a relay via WBCQ but off-frequency+plus implies it is not
the usual R. Angela transmitter which is always slightly
off-frequency-minus. Was there any advance publicity about this, or
was I the sole listener who ran across it in a routine bandscan at a
time WBCQ is normally way off the air? Not a twit about it from AW,
nor anything on the WBCQ website; one-off, or to continue? Full span
unknown as past my bedtime. I asked Bill Tilford of R. Angela if he
knows anything about this?

``I was not informed in advance, but apparently they are testing
another transmitter outside of core hours on 5130 using Radio Caroline
material. At the moment that's all I know.

I can tell you that Radio Angela per se is an endangered species if we
don't get a significant uptick in financial support in terms of more
airtime buys, donations or some combination of the two rather soon.

This was a bold experiment but is not achieving sustainable economic
results. We would hardly be the first quality broadcasting venture to
fold its tent after one season if that happens. Those who consistently
complain about all the political and religious programming on the air
would do well to take note.``

Updated WRMI skedgrid shows an additional WOR airing, Sunday 1330 on
9955 System C. Also, the UT Sat 0130 not only on 5850 but also on 7730
now reactivated System F (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5130v, WBCQ: See UQKOGBANI [non]

** U S A. 7505, May 17 at 0653, canned WRNO ID as I tune in but the
gospel huxter audio is not paused or diminished resulting in an unholy
mix. Something`s SNAFU at Fort Worth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, May 17 at 0704, R. Vanuatu still poor here with BB
talk, no switch to 3945/7890/11835/15780 at 0659. Same thing happened
last night when I was not monitoring but noted by Ron Howard on May 15
and 16, much later QSY (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0009 UT May 18

** CHINA [and non]. A few days ago, May 12, we had news that CRI had
stopped Spanish on SW, to continue only online as ``Onda China``. This
has remained unverified, so on May 16 I resolve to check scheduled
Spanish broadcasts.

17680, May 16 at 0626, JBA carrier, no more than that, like several
others in the nightmiddle on 16mb. CRI only thing was sked, at 06-08
via Kashi/Kashgar, occupied EAST TURKISITAN.

Next Spanish scheduled from 2100. Monitoring via UTwente: 7335 is on
already in Chinese as scheduled at 2054. 9640 pops on at *2057 with
music not // 7335, and at 2059, 9640 talk in neither Spanish nor
Chinese, but they are joint from 2100, just more different music. I
can`t listen for whole hour, but at 2157, they are both in Spanish,
seems to be concluding a language lesson. 2200 sounds like same music
heard an hour earlier, and now also // 17880, still at 2207. At 2221
now a Spanish feature about Chinese folktales, with birdchrip SFX
etc., just like I heard May 12 at 2120: identical? or maybe another
episode. At 2313 check May 16, 11855 // 9800 // 9590 with music to
UTwente.

My impression so far is that what Spanish remains on CRI/RIC is
evergreen archives stuff, nothing about current events requiring a
live staff and new produxion.

``Hoy, 20 de abril``, she says at 2321 May 16 on Chinese learning,
for el dia de la lengua china``.

How about the CRI website? Here`s a page linked as RADIO but it
mentions everyplatform but SW:
https://espanol.cri.cn/audioonline/index.shtml
and everything on it is dated 2017!

Here`s a very generic 2-hour program block showing as of 2017, Boletín

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6000 // 9700, May 16 at 0127, RHC English only
here, both somewhat undermodulated with 6165 long gone. 0243 recheck,
9700 now has CCI clearly underneath from Spanish, i.e. Romania as
scheduled 0200-0257. How could RRI possibly know about RHC which
refuses to register in HFCC? Someone should tell them. I don`t know
the total span of RHC 9700, but varies to much later. Aoki does not
list it at all, while EiBi shows 01-04 incorrect Spanish, 05-07
English, all irregular. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12200, May 16 at 0643, RHC English, S8/9+10 and somewhat
undermodulated; i.e. 2 x 6100 which is indeed still on and much weaker
S7/S9; and no other RHCs found on any band. Same situation as on May
12 when both were heard but dead air. And April 18 with disturbed
modulation. Not only is the harmonic escaping, but the fundamental is
weaker indicating transmitter mistuned to peak on X2. Something`s
always wrong at RHC!

Also today I decide to give RHC another chance to provide an uptodate
nominal schedule. The homepage defaults to Spanish, and under De
Interés, a drop down to
https://www.radiohc.cu/de-interes/frecuencias

On the homepage there are no longer flag icons for languages, such as
UK`s for English, never USA`s! let alone words. To get to English you
have to click on the globe icon in upper right to get a drop-down of
langs. Click and wait for slow loading. Eventually:

From there under Interesting another drop-down including Frequencies:
https://www.radiohc.cu/en/de-interes/frecuencias
same as you get by going via Spanish: also for the B20 season,
starting Nov 17, 2020! FWIW:

The times, such as 15140 at 20-21 instead of current 19-20, correspond

I`ve yet to catch the Africa service before or after 23 UT on 11880,
and suspect it has totally got lost. It used to be at 22 UT in B
seasons, 23 in A seasons, opposite of DST shifting.

How about programming, in English?
https://www.radiohc.cu/en/de-interes/programacion
It leads to exactly the same thing as this:

How about programming, in Spanish:
https://www.radiohc.cu/en/de-interes/programacion
This is NOT a program sked - no names or times of specific pgms, but a
transmission sked in English and the other languages. This one is
undated, but we recognize some frequencies long out of use, if ever,
so surely is very outdated. Like 17730, 6075, 9850, 17580. Somethings`
VERY wrong at RHC.

Things were a little better until the passing of frequency manager
Arnaldo Coro Antich, who refused to participate in HFCC, but would
send more or less intentional seasonal schedules to Wolfgang Büschel.
I wonder who`s mismanaging them now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17480, May 16 at 1537, S5/S8 talk with heavy

war; but there is a JBA carrier on 17450, maybe Dengê Welat (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

playing an hymn, the SSOB until cutoff at 0629* with no ID or
announcement. Scheduled as AWR French at 0600 via Talata (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SLOVAKIA [non]. 15770, May 16 at 0630, WRMI-9 propagating well
tonight, S9+10/20 as R. Slovakia International relay starts as
scheduled on System H daily. But I can hardly believe my ears as it`s
announced as the *Monday, January 30* broadcast! Among other things,
about some WWII anniversary on January 27. This must mean that WRMI
has got no newer files than 3.5 months ago from this station. Has no
one else noticed? Something`s odd at Okeechobee. Another System H time
is 0130 on 5800.

However, RSI is also scheduled at more times on System F, a different
server, which might not be so outdated. Listen for datestamps at their
sign-ons!
2200 on 5850
0030 on 5850, 7730, 15770
0300 on 7730, 7780, 15770

``Hola, todos! Nací el 13 de mayo de 1967 en la localidad de Quillota,
República de Chile, radioaficionado licenciado desde 1981, cuando
tenía 14 años.

Mi primera licencia fue la de solicitante número 1881, luego obtuve
ce2fau, ce4fau, ce4ats, ce2ats, y en la actualidad ce2tp. Estoy
felizmente casado con Claudia Bernal desde el 28 de agosto de 1993,
tenemos dos hijos.
Me gusta el radio hamming y lo disfruto mucho, es el único hobby que
tengo.

Lo que me gusta es la comunicación de larga distancia (dx) en todas
las bandas, pero sobre todo intente la propagación en la banda de 6
metros.

En mi choza hay un Icom IC-746 pro, Icom IC-7000 versión europea, Icom
Ic-761, raro Icom IC-740s, solo 25w PEP con el que utilizo un pequeño
amplificador Trio TL-120, Kenwood TS-2000x, Yaesu FTDX-1200, Kenwood
TS-440sat, TS-850sat, TS-450sat, TS-130s, Yaesu FT-891, Yaesu System
600, y otro es un gran Kenwood TS-430s. En mi coche utilizo el Yaesu
FT-100 D, y Icom IC-706, con antena helicoidal de Eco veicolare
fabricado en Italia, y el Kawasaki pongo Alinco DR-135mkII VHF, antena
de 5/8 ondas.

Las antenas que utilizo como se muestra en las imágenes de abajo hacia
arriba: 3 elementos yagi Hy gain TH 3 jrs. Elaboración casera 3 el.
monobanda para 6 metros. En la parte superior de la torre hay una VHF
9-el. viga, espaciamientos largos, fabricada por Tonna (Francia).

Gracias por mirar, un gran abrazo para todos y nos vemos en radio.``

two Es beacons lower down from MEXICO, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, May 15 at 0638, huge S9+10 dead air, got to be RHC way
out of whack again, supposedly daytime only frequency. Now it`s the
SSOB by far -- strongest signal on band, not even 15770 WRMI more than
JBA carrier. No other RHCs found now on any band. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORWAY [non]. Re R Northern Star via TRSW via WRMI, "All the music
is US classic rock, in English, and even the wide variety of jingles
and IDs are in American accent." Kari Kallio, Finland replies:

``RNS buys the entire music program package ready-made, I remember
from the USA. Svenn might have said the name of that company to me,
but in that case I've already happily forgotten it. br Kari`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon May 15 at 2200, NO signal from REE to NAm; 15520
& 17715 in OK, as Justin skips any news, about this being 40th
anniversary from 1983 teletext in Spain, then interview with an artist
named Williams (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. Correcting my comment about 5960 not in English, May 14:
``5960 always carries Turkish, English at 18:30 was on 5945 kHz as
usual. Announcer Omar was reading out the latest election figures
followed by some music. I did not stay listening for long.
11785 at 23:00 [2200 UT] is too late for me to listen.

Earlier in the day at 12:30 on 15450 kHz, the lady announcer with the
almost incomprehensible accent was on duty, speaking about the
election. She appears to have been suffering from a sore throat - due
to a virus - or maybe from over enthusiastic shouting at a rally?

It looks like a winner for Erdogan in the run-off in two weeks time.
So another 5 years of oppression of the media in Turkiye. Alan Holder,
G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.`` on the WOR iog.

9875, May 15 at 2042, VOT English via UTwente, S9+20/30 but
heavyaccent YL about elexion. 2045 `Feeling Supreme` theme; 2105
multi-lingual ID filler reel.

11785, May 15 at 2200, not off the air direct but poor. It would take
very careful listening with perfect reception and accent to evaluate
whether VOT reporting is objective or partial to Recep (Glenn Hauser,
