Hauser
** CUBA [and non]. 880, Nov 7 at 0350, Spanish music atop KRVN making
a SAH of 84/minute = 1.4 Hz, presumed R. Progreso, Pinar del Rio, but
no SW 4765 to //. During EST season, nominal 4765 hours are 0130-0500
only UT. Does not fit exactly mwoffsets which implies these two 3.9 Hz
apart as measured on widely divergent dates 2 or 3 years ago. If KJOZ
TX were the Spanish, it and KRVN were only 0.7 Hz apart as of
2018/2019 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025 & 4765, Nov 7 at 0321, both Rebelde and Progreso are
off; 5040 RHC Spanish S9/+10. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, UT Mon Nov 7 at 0344, RHC is S9+25/35, but just barely
modulated with hum, not positive // 6165 as it`s only S7 and also
JBM/hum, during `Mailbag` with ``Ed Newman`` -- him being soft-spoken
would otherwise be pleasant, but not to cope with JBM! If RHC still
have two separate English hours alternating, this confirm that now
during evenings EST, Mbg appears within odd-numbered UT hours, as
expected in updated DX/SWL/Media Programs, rather than even-UT hours
during EDT. As for the isolated 1-hour Englishes at 20-21 and
peripatetic 22-23 or 23-24, never quite sure which be which.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 7 at 2001, RHC English is still here, VP and
distorted into Maryland SDR, presumably 20-21 ex 19-20 UT. Have not
tracked RHC much more yet; may be further changes following week
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6090-6120, Nov 7 at 0341, NHK Japanese relay via Issoudun
is S9+45 on 6105, splattering out to plus/minus 15 kHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** IRELAND. 3413 USB, Nov 7 at 0325, YL VOLMET in English, JBA S4 =
HNL. EiBi shows it`s Shannon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
November 6 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR with fast SAH and lite English understation,
presumably Smooth Radio, Brighton.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9 but noisy
into Missouri SDR; with 10-15 seconds of heavy noise overlaying,
blocking audibility of my opening, starting exactly same time as WOR
playback, obviously WRMI defect on this System/frequency.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0130 on WRMI 5950, VG
S9+20/30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 from 0401.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6160 minus 65 Hz = 6159.935. In the previous sesquiminute A51 had some
looping mélange, then cut to clear WOR. Next:

0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** VANUATU. 7890 < 11835, Nov 7 at 0740, R. Vanuatu JBA on 3945
harmonix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 603 kHz, Nov 7 at 0725, strong carrier but off at 0730
UT. This is a 9/kHz TA/TP split channel, but wonder if something
closer, like a domestic with a 3 kHz tone? I am not the only one
curious about 603. Possibilities include 500 kW Korea S, 600+ kW
China; 500 kW Oman, but all into daytime, most of all Oman. Similar
quandary on 891, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 891.00, Nov 7 at 0352, big het vs WLS and Cuban Spanish
on 890.00, but can`t pull any audio. Obvious choice would be Algeria,
but not there at 0412 recheck on the R75; so receiver birdie? Similar
quandary on 603, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at
0412: 684, 774-2, 837, 855 -- all likely Spain or Canary; 1467 & 1566,
JJBBA TWR Benin.

Nov 7 at 0440 another sweep: 612, 684, 747-2, 774-2, 837, 882, 999:
likewise, except 612 Morocco.

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at 0725:
801, maybe not too early for 10 kW KTWG Guam, 500 kW N Korea or 250 kW
Taiwan? Also 846 Kiritimati; 1287? 50 kW Japan? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST update:

Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm

1) Updated UTC offset notations for DST changes for Cuba (Progreso,
Rebelde), USA (Marti, WRMI, VOA)

2) Israel - KAN(REKA): Updated all links to the KAN/REKA website.
(Thanks to Daniel Rosenzweig for the updated info)

3) Norway - R Northern Star: New entry - added links to home page and
facebook page. The next update is scheduled for early December.

Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe

** CUBA. 5040, Nov 6 at 0642, RHC is still on in English with jazz
show, distorted S9+10/20 direct, so blots Vanuatu if still there until
0659. Also still on: 6060 and 6100 both S9/+10, but not 6165 or 6000.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Nov 6 at 1536, S9+10 of dead air from RHC, same
reading as 15140 with some music modulation, vs full mod on 13700 also
still on at S9+10, plus its FMish spurblobs approx. 13634 and 13766 at
S2/S3 with some mxmod audible too; but not on 2 x 64 displacements
plus/minus 128 circa 13572, 13828.

Into Maryland remote at 1600, ID claims to continue on 15140 & 11760
[only] + FMs. As a good little running dog of Yanqui Imperialism, Cuba
has also switched from EDT to EST. Instead of 1500, at 1601 opens
weekly Sunday Esperanto with same wrong sked as always, 0800 on 6100;
1600 on 11760 only, 2230? on 15730. By 1604, 15230 is still on and
becoming JB modulated in Esp`o; but Maryland is not getting the spurs.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Nov 6 at 0644, no JBA carrier direct from R.
Kiribati, presumed axually a silent Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11705 DRM noise, UT Sun Nov 6 at 0455, presumed RRI at end
of 0400 English broadcast to Asia; into UTwente SDR, but nothing on
listed 11790 AM or DRM. Had been listening on AM to N America
frequencies, 6020 & 7410, VG with `Listeners Letterbox` 0442-0452.
Included recitation of new B22 English sked. I wasn`t paying close
attention, but some frequencies seemed ``wrong`` compared to HFCC info
I`ve already quoted:
http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B22&broadc=RRO
Own English fq sked does not match exactly HFCC registrations:
https://www.rri.ro/en_gb/frecvente-259
And trying to reach program skeds, not only English but Spanish,
diverted by an ``internal error`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday Nov 6 starting 50 minutes late at 0405 UT on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
MO, S9+22 into nearby SDR. From next week, nominal time will be 0415
UT. Next:

2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW

** U S A. 1150 kHz, Sunday November 6 at 0644-0708 UT, I`m tuning
direct for the KSEN Shelby MT DX test scheduled for 0600-0800. 1150 is
dominated at night here by KSAL Salina KS with a tight direxional lobe
thisaway:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KSAL&service=AM&h=N
On the altazimuth wrist-mounted DX-398, at first I`m hearing echoey
talk show between two YLs, so KSAL with Coast to Coast, see separate
log, and what else? NRC AM Log shows the other C2Cs are: WJBO LA, KRMS
MO, WIMA OH, KAGO OR, KQQQ WA, WHBY WI, CKFR BC --- surely one of the
first two, closer to here. At 0650, continuous tone looping NW/SE, so
that`s got to be KSEN. 0655 tone on the R75 with E/W longwire. 0704
Morse on the DX-398, too weak to copy; 0706 & 0708 Morse on the R75.
Anyhow I heard and QSLed KSEN a biyear ago as exhibited in my previous
report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1150, Nov 6 at 0655 UT, `Coast to Coast` with guest host
Connie Willis, also resuming at 0706; while I`m really trying for the
KSEN MT DX test, see seprate log. At 0702-0703 UT approx., I can`t
help but notice dead air during a net newscast from KSAL KS, which had
just IDed before 0700, and a second one, presumably commercial holes.
Is no one paying attention in Salina? Of course not! (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 10080, Nov 6 at 0654, no signal from R. Vanuatu on 2 x
5040, fundamental now blocked by RHC. Ron Howard confirms he heard no
10080 previously on Nov 4. As for Nov 6, Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec in
Brasil confirms 5040 until 0659, then 3945 harmonix on 7890, 11835
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

ALAN ROE`S HITLIST:
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Nov 5 at 1454, song is on, into
Uruguay SDR as I`ve been seeking LRA36 since 1445, but the best
Argentine SDR is offline, and all others there or in Brasil are either
offline, busy, or zero reception. Uruguay has annoying local noise
level but will have to suffice. 1459.5 standard canned sign-on; 1501
themesong; 1504.5 recitation; 1506 song; 1510 YLs introducing 29th
programa of season, so confirmed as repeat of Wednesday Nov 2, see my
already report. 1525 ID with frequencies, ``Nacional, la radio
pública``. Etc., etc. past 1600; 1605 ID and apparently off. Anyhow
back to ``normal`` USB mode and off-frequency after foray to LSB
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Nov 5 at 0620, R. Rebelde ID, humbuzzz and distorted,
S9+10. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 880, R. Progreso: see USA [and non] KJJR DX test log

** CUBA. All RHC frequencies are OFF already, Nov 5 at 0628.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Nov 5 at 0644, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati;
and no other 9/kHz splits in cursory check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Nov 5 at 0627, ORTM is still off, all month (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Nov 5 at 0630, no signal from VON. Some editors
tend to dispense with such non-logs, but I think stations` absences
are just as significant if not more so, than their presences (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday November 5 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 VG direct, S9+12/27 into
Missouri SDR. // 15770 is VP S5/6. Until I reach the KFS SE antenna,
S7/S9 but with ACI from Chinese on 15775, while 5850 remains
much better, S9+10/22.

Also confirmed UT Saturday November 5 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130 minus 24 Hz = 5129.976, S8/9+10 into Maryland SDR.

Not confirmed Sat Nov 5 at 1600 on WRN North America webcast but some
other program; must have latened all broadcasts by one hour last
Sunday as if we were in Europe. Confirmed at 1700 UT now.

WRN program skeds are still for A-22! Assuming all have shifted one UT
hour later than shown, some WOR times have been deleted, e.g. no
longer at 0130/0230 UT Sun/Mon. All the times now match up to the
three different target areas: Sat 1700, Sat & Sun 2100, Sun 1330.

Missed checking the Sat Nov 5 at 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, as I was
engrossed in updating --- WOR skeds, and DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS. This
occupied most of my afternoon.

Confirmed UT Sunday Nov 6 at 0030 on WRMI 7780. Checked first on
Argentine SDR I still have linked for Antarctica this morning, and
pleased to find WOR JBA down there way offbeam. Unfortunately, not
much better on nearer SDRs in GA, MD, TX. Next:

0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0430]

[some non-DST changes start here]
2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW
0130 UT Monday WRMI 5950 to NNW

** U S A [and non]. 880, Sat Nov 5 at 0603 UT, tuning for the KJJR
Whitefish MT DX test: starting on the DX-398 with altazimuth wrist
mount: first hearing Spanish music looping NW/SE, surely R. Progreso,
Pinar del Rio, CUBA, rather than the only US SS possibility, KJOZ
Conroe TX. That makes a 1.0 Hz SAH with dominant KRVN Nebraska unless
nulled. At 0604 sweep tones in the mix, so that has to be KJJR. On the
R75 with E/W longwire it`s a different situation: KRVN with a 4.0 Hz
SAH from something else. I listen mostly on the DX-398: 0609 Morse
code; 0611 sweeps; 0612 romantic music in Spanish peaks again; 0614
prolonged tone; 0617 VVV ... JJR in code; 0618 on R75 code also
underaudible. KJJR has DX tested before: see my log of Jan 8 at:
https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2022_0106_0112.txt
I did not get a QSL for that but for its sibling station KSEN 1150:
https://www.w4uvh.net/KSEN1150DXghQSL.pdf
from a test before that on Nov 8, 2020, which this year is testiing 24
hours later on UT Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 5040, Nov 5 at 0619, in absence of RHC, JBA carrier, again
reconfirmed by Ron Howard as RV, and switching at 0659 to 3945 +
harmonix. Also here, no signal on 7260 at 0630. When last used 5040,
IIRC no harmonix heard on 10080 or 15120, but check them (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Saturday, November 05 2022

Hauser
** CUBA. 5025, Nov 4 at 0636, R. Rebelde is on with efemérides about
some event in year 1929. The word in English refers to astronomical
calculations, but much broader in Spanish, like almanac = this day in
history (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Nov 4 at 0635, only one of The Cuban Five still on air,
RHC English, S9 but undermodulated. See also UNID 5040. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, Nov 4 at 2321, RHC Spanish, music overmodulated,
distorted with growl, // clear 11760 where it`s about the 120th
anniversary of relations with Belgium, so this is Belgian Culture
Week, in Cuba: how nice. Also // 11880, what became of English? It`s
also distorted but not as bad as 11670. Something`s always wrong at
RHC. 11850 not on, and 11950 as usual separate Spanish Mesa Redonda TV
soundtrack (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Nov 4 at 2132, NO signal into UTwente from R.
Cairo in English, where something`s always egregious (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** ITALY [and non]. Checking the IRRS hour from which WORLD OF RADIO
at 1815 has been removed, Friday November 4: 1323 kHz, AM Italia,
Villa Estense into nearby Noale SDR, at 1756 totally buried by talk in
Hungarian, the minolity service from Romania but still no usage of
relatively clear ex-918 kHz, nor experimental LW 207. By 1758 into
UTwente, 7295.000 carrier is on already, presumably still BULGARIA,
but at different local time no longer delayed until *1800.8 and indeed
we can hear the real ``IRRS signing-on`` just seconds before 1800, and
into `Feature Story News`. 7295 escapes first-adjacent QRM from East
Turkistan, but it`s so huge on 7285 that some second-adjacent QRMs
7295. Hungarian is still way over 1323. The 7295 harmonic would now
fall on 14590 - not heard at 1802 but some ute QRM locked onto at
14589.970.85v. 1803, `FSN Spotlite`. 1804, 1323 now atop the CCI, and
1805 VOA News, by remote, instead of UN News, until 1810 into fill
music, while at 1809 AMI was = RomHung. Still music past 1815; 1818
UNESCO PSA in Spanish about masking; music. 1825 to `Country
Jamboree`, fragments of which have been filler before. DJ explains how
this was recorded in early October and when it might repeat; dedicated
to the just-deceased Oct 4 Loretta Lynn, playing a number of her
songs, still past 1844; 1855 recheck now in some talk show.
Henceforth, no WOR to recheck for (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 28460 USB, Nov 4 at 2310, JJ2IJU contacting a US station:
JJ2IJU Japan flag Japan
AKIRA "AKI" HONDA, 9-39-1 AKO-DAI, KUWANA-CITY 511-0935 MIE-JAPAN ---
among quite a bit of activity on 10m now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Nov 4 at 1525, English for a change, about
Protestant Reformation; 1529 closing only in English as V of Martyrs
Korea, Maldives service with address maldives@vomkorea.com, off at
1530*. Unlike yesterday`s closing which I recorded via UTwente. I
cannot figure out the word between www and .com in her Dhivehi(?)
announcement, then same English as today. VG signal S9+10/20 direct
from secret site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [non]. 7255-, Nov 4 at 0630, no signal direct from VON. C.
1730 into Canary SDR, nothing but huge CRI English (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Nov 2 at 2337 UT on caradio, KTSB Tulsa mentions
the BetQL network. I knew they were sportstalk, ``The Blitz``, now
bettalk? Website sked does not mention that net but at 6-7 pm CT only,
``Bet MGM``. BTW, a strange, can it be coincidental? As my left
fingers were misaligned, typing one character to the left of KTSB, I
wrote to my surprise, KRAV --- another Tulsa station!! Could this
happen in any other market? A project. BTW, ``BlitZ`` branding would
fit much better on another Tulsan call, 1430 KTBZ, but that`s `The
Buzz``, also sports nonsense. Date correct, overlooked in previous
report (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Friday Nov 4 at 2313, token English from REE about
vaccines: altho stronger on the S meter, good signals on 12030 & 11940
are preferable with less fading and noise. Also VP 11685 avoiding
Habana now on 11670. 2325 an acrobat about not being afraid (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 15150.03, Nov 4 at 1527, R. Tamazuj ID,
obviously off-frequency but estimated rather than precisely measured
to the Hz; much stronger than // 15550. The lower one is MADAGASCAR,
the higher, VATICAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Nov 4 at 2313, no signal direct from VOT, presumed
off again, erroneous at Emirler, but no chance to check later into
UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed first SW
airing, UT Friday November 4 at 0330 on WRMI 7780. As usual on this
system, first 10-15 seconds marred by self-imposed noise burst! Same
heard briefly again at 0337. Poor reception via Georgia, Maryland,
Texas remotes.

** U S A. 9330v, Nov 4 at 0632, still no signal from
WBCQ/WLCR. Nothing about this in recent twits (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7490v), UT Sat Nov 5 at 0000, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW`,
bound to be anti-Democratic political ranting, so am zoning out until
0031 starts to talk about radio: SuperStition 9330 remains off the
air, since the transmitter has been causing a lot of trouble; and one
engineer, Jeff, has been badly hurt -- apparently electrocuted but
nothing specific. Altho listeners are entitled to know everything
about WBCQ (?). Then cites a dozen or more staff and volunteers who
work on it in Maine, by first names only. 0038 reads Radio World story
about FCC vs property owners hosting PIRATEs. 0049 FCCommissioner
calls for ban of TikTok. 0054 Free Radio Weekly items with names and
frequencies only. Prayer, as always runs over Hal Turner JIP at 0101.

At the start I checked Maryland remote for frequency offsets: 5130 -
13 Hz = 5129.987; 6160 - 64 Hz = 6159.936; 7490 - 70 Hz = 7489.930.
Not on the air: 3265+, 9330+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Nov 4 at 0630, no signal from RV. See also UNID
5040.

UNIDENTIFIED. 5040, Nov 4 at 0636, JBA carrier compared to loud Cuba
5025. What could this be? Remnant exciter of RHC? MW harmonic, 6 x 840
or 3 x 1680 or 8 x 630 or 4 x 1260 or 9 x 560? Amazing, all the
possibilities. Aoki shows only other 5040 SW stations are Jeypore,
India, but x = off the air, and if on, certainly not at this time nor
propagating from noonday; and 5040 is a R. Vanuatu alternate at
2000-2400, not quite too early for that, and it`s missing from 7260.

Ahá! Ron Howard`s independent report received later: ``VANUATU. heard
on their alternate frequency of 5040 (ex: 7260), Radio Vanuatu,
0649-0659* UT, Nov 4. Tuned in to check the usual 7260, but clearly
not there; found on 5040, with island songs and announcers; not as
good as ex 7260. *0659 UT, heard very poor reception on 2nd harmonic
(7890); while both 3945 and 11835 were totally unusable; later, after
0720+, had decent 11835 reception, even with CODAR QRM, but overall a
very poor day for Vanuatu reception. Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) CODAR inside the 25m BC band??

UNIDENTIFIED. 11494 USB, Nov 4 at 2319, ``014JS1``, requesting a
change in the primary. Smax of US military. Lots of logs in UDXF,
lately and primarily US Coast Guard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13579 LSB, Nov 4 at 2317, very weak 2-way in Spanish;
cambio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0119 UT November 5
