backward into UTwente, some splatter from plus side tho nothing sked
on 9880; but `Letterbox` is already in progress. Hostess talking about
an antenna problem at Emirler accounting for irregular operation. Not
recording, and hard to understand every word anyway, but we need to
know exactly what she said about this. Did anyone get it? Attempting
to enumerate the listeners called: 1) Francis, Ireland. 2) Mohammed,
Malaysia. 3) Alan Holder, UK - spends a lot of time with and very glad
to hear from him, long-time listener, since 1970? And he will be 70
next month. He wonders if 11785 problem may be due to maintenance, or
shift changes. She says shift change is at 0200? or 0300? local time
probably. 2055 pause for a song, from the 2003 Eurovision Song
Contest. 2059, 4) Spain reports a wrong frequency but will forward to

** TURKEY. 7275, UT Mon Apr 21 at 0301, NO signal from VOT English for
North America, nor on 6165 to Asia, but *0305, 7275.003+ chops on,
S9+25/40 into UTwente, and weaker 6165.005- is also on as they JIP the
2-minute multi-lingual ID filler reel instead of any olds, just like
the 2200 broadcast. 6165 has some RTTYditty QRM, probably on 6164.
0306 starts `The Pulse of Turkish Foreign Policy`, about the ``Iranian
Kurds`` I think tho sounds a lot like ``Iranian Turx``. 0315 `The
Letterbox Program` starts with new frequencies especially for
listeners in America are a bit of a ``menace``. Ricky Hein, SD, called
thrice that 11785 and 6165 are not funxioning properly and signal not
reliable at all, 11785 SINPO 15111, and all-twos? in 6165 [of course
6165 is not toward NAm unlike ex-6125 at 0400 in B season]. Alan
Holder also says 11785 has been missing some Sunday transmissions.
Asked the Emirler staff and they said the antenna for American
continent is out of use, and the replacement antenna is not working as
it should. Rain prevents trux from moving around the ground for
repairs, and afraid it will not improve very quickly. This time I
recorded the opening via UTwente, and that helped to quote her
accurately. Well, *when* they are on, 11785 and 7275 seem to be plenty
strong as if with a proper antenna.

Alan Holder also replies: ``Hi Glenn, My recent e-mail was featured on
"Letterbox" yesterday and since I always keep recordings of such
events, I am sending these on to you. The presenter read out my
message in full. The lady now regularly hosting the show is Seher
Cemre Turan. She appears to prefer to be called by her middle name.
Only recently did I find out that in Turkish, the letter 'c' is
pronounced 'j' (as in John). Therefore it's "Jemre" with the stress on
the Jem.

So it seems that the North America antenna is only a temporary affair.
The original may have been damaged by bad weather and must have
collapsed. The irregularity of the 2200 UT broadcast cannot be wholly
explained by the use of the temporary antenna. Also, the 2030
broadcast on a different antenna is off air on some days, as you
know.

I checked some time ago and at 2200, only one transmitter appears to
be in use. All five units are on air at one point in the daytime
(including the one jamming Dengê Gel until 1600). I reckon they
reserve late night hours local time for transmitter maintenance.
Wolfgang Bueschel also pointed out that some HFCC listings for TRT
include 300 kW power, which means that they have (or will) install a
new transmitter at Emirler. {WRTH says they already have 5 x 500 kW}

By the way, I remember the situation at Kol Yisrael's Yavne site when
one of their curtain antennas was damaged by severe gale force winds
back in 2002. The antenna was in place but some of the elements were
broken. They had to hire a mobile crane with a reach of 100 metres and
it was about a nine month wait before repairs could be done. Only then
was the ground solid enough to support the crane (and this in Israel's
relatively dry climate). If the thing toppled over, you can imagine
the damage that would result.

Belated best wishes to you on your 80th birthday, Glenn. Alan Holder,
G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

there is a lot of CCI on 790. There are *no* Canadians at all on 790.
I guess some unknown USA program/net must have mentioned CJOB. I don`t
find any 93.9 in connexion with it. 92.9 does not correlate with WMC
790 either, but I find that WMFS 680 & 92.9 is a ``sister station`` to
WMC. Hmmm (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUATEMALA. 4052.5, April 20, one final non-log of TGAV, R. Verdad,
which never made it back on SW, and now never will, because Dr. Édgar
Amílcar Madrid Morales has died on April 20. For the record, via Dino
Bloise, Frecuencia al Día, translated:

#FrecuenciaAlDía - GUATEMALA: #MOURNING | WELL-KNOWN AND PROMINENT
PASTOR, Dr. EDGAR MADRID, DIRECTOR AND OWNER OF RADIO VERDAD IN
CHIQUIMULA, DIES. THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH MOURNS THE DEATH OF DR. EDGAR
AMILCAR MADRID MORALES.

On the evening of Wednesday, April 16, the renowned and prominent
pastor, Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid, passed away. He was originally from
Chiquimula and had a long career as a preacher of the word of God. He
founded the Evangelical Friends of Holiness Church, which currently
has seven churches throughout the country. He also founded the Quaker
Theological Seminary and the radio station, Radio Verdad.

He was a professor at the Chiquimula Experimental Institute, a
musician, composer, writer, theologian, inventor, and possessed many
other gifts that God allowed him to develop here on earth. He was
recognized as a Guatemalan scientist during the Álvaro Arzú
administration and received awards such as "La Muta de Oro,"
"Francisco Marroquín," and "La Orden del Quetzal," among others.

With his extensive knowledge, he trained musicians, broadcasters,
Sunday school teachers, professors, theologians, and many
professionals who today represent the development of Guatemala and
other Latin American countries. Without a doubt, Dr. Madrid leaves a
void in those whose lives gave them the opportunity to experience all
his skills and talents, without blemish, in keeping with God's
command.

We join in the grief of his daughter, Edna Edith Madrid, and all the
members of the Friends of Holiness Church. Heaven is celebrating; a
servant of God who fought throughout his life to teach the truth of
the gospel here on earth has passed away. May God receive him in his
holy glory. https://www.facebook.com/LatitudStereo @BaraAnes``

And Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, commented: ``They didn't just scam him
with that imaginary global satellite shortwave network, but also, and
very recently, with the purchase of a new transmitter to resume
broadcasting on traditional shortwave on 4055 kHz.

Because of this latest scam, I believe they left him without the
little money he had, causing him great disappointment. Just a few
months ago, he was very excited about the arrival of that nonexistent
new transmitter from Germany, allowing him to return to shortwave.

The poor man fell into the hands of unscrupulous people who kept
deceiving him and demanding more and more money for something that
would never arrive. People tried to warn him about how fictitious it
all was, but he was so sure it was true that he never listened to
anyone. Rest in peace.``

During its heyday I received a number of very nice pennants and QSL.

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sat Apr 19 at 0537, JBA carrier, presumed
Station YHWH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 88.1, Apr 19 at 1800 UT on caradio, weak signal ID in
passing as WOFM? No Es, this is surely KMSI Moore OK, with the Oasis
Network. I previously heard a ``WOFM`` ID on 89.1, which is the Enid
translator of Oasis` KNYD 90.5 Tulsa flagship, K206CA. The real WOFM
is as previously researched, an AirOne affil in Alcoa TN,
coincidentally on 89.1. Now checking the Oasis website,
https://oasisnetwork.org/index.php/affiliates
it`s clear that I had an Oasis net ID including a far-flung one I am
not really hearing, not WOFM but WOFN, 88.7 in Beach City/Canton OH.
Canton was also mentioned the previous time. BTW, K206CA cannot
possibly be picking up 90.5 directly for relay as there is a stronger
closer blocking 90.5. If not a non-broadcast feed, may really relay
KMSI, but subject to KWOU Woodward QRM (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PERU. 4775, Apr 20 at 0108, JBA carrier in HSNL, interior random
wire, no doubt R. Tarma, which is never on during my nightmiddle
tunings. Now no signs of any other S Americans on 60m except 4940
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20/30 for SAm, slightly stronger than 15500
S9+10/20 for NAm, then 15520 S9/+10 for ME, and 15390 JBA for Af,
direct, Fri Apr 18 at 2200, token English from SNR. Preview topic to
be from archive, how Holy Week is celebrated in different regions of
Spain. Contact info by email, whatsapp number, postal; not pursued
further the antix of religionists (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Apr 18 at 2158, VOT IS & ID are JBA direct S9+20 =
noise level. Not pursued further but at least we know they were not
not off the air at the start (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785 & accidentalternate 9875, Apr 19 at 2205 & 2250 chex,
zero signals from VOT English for N America, into UTwente. Something`s
erroneous in Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13566.6 CW, Apr 20 at 0123, JBA HIFER beacon repeating call
over and over: KE4TWI - first one I have copied in months on the ISM
band. As in LWCA list: 13566.46~ Lebanon TN, EM66ug CW (r 2024/12)
BC``. Despite storm noise, on my interior shortwire (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2291 monitoring: confirmed Friday
April 18 at 2215 the 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20 direct but JBM and
squeezed between the TOMBS on 9930 & 9980.

Also confirmed Saturday April 19 at 1450 the 1430 on SW Radio,
Germany, 6160.001+, S8/9+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday April 19 at 1600 on WRN North America stream.

Also confirmed Saturday April 19 at 1730 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.001-, S9/+15 into UTwente, and also 3975.001-, S9/+5 into
UTwente, not synchronized.

Could not check the 1930v Sat Apr 19 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, since the
local SDR is offline, and the nearest otherones in MO, IL, IA get
nothing but noise in the daytime.

Also confirmed Saturday April 19 at 1930 on WRN North America stream.
And at 2000 on WRN Europe stream.

WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, at 0315 UT April 20 is still in the
variable-lengthy Houston AMSAT net replay, so WOR will probably start
considerably later than nominal 0315 UT Sunday. Checked at the Peoria
IL SDR where it`s S9. Next:

** U S A. 9930, Apr 20 at 0059, WTWW ID for 9930 & 5920, then TOMBS
ID, S9+50/60. This time there are *no* parasitic spurs about 9917.1 &
9942.9, making me wonder if switched to the other transmitter. Also no
significant splatter as has happened before. But still no activity on
5085/9475 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Fri Apr 18 at 2352 into NH SDR:
3265 off, 5130 off, 6160 algo S5/S6; 7490 -75 Hz = 7489.925 only
S5/S6, VP quite unusually compared to the others; 9330 S7/S9 WLCR
Portuguese. *2355, 5130- cuts on, S8/9+10 with IS & ID loop. I keep
tuned to this one as 5130, 7490 and 9330 merge at 0000 Apr 19 for
`AAAWWW` WTO theme; first overtalk: ``powerful electronic fist pounds
into your head`` , and final one word: ``happy``. Obviously
new and live as it`s Easter weekend, good Friday. Obligatory piety to
start. Angela`s mike is off for a few minutes before they realize it,
so her habit of asking if she`s on is well-founded. I`m paying more
attn to otherstuff, but at 0025 he`s talking about audio processing;
0048 some music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9265, Sat Apr 19 at 0536, WINB is off unlike the past two
Saturdays when it ran way late past 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 17420-17480 approx., Apr 20 at 0119, multi-carrier,
multi-tones beating against each other peaking circa 17446 at S9+10.
What is this? Much stronger than any 16m broadcaster now, including
JBA 17675 NZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
