Hauser
** CANADA [and non]. July 23 at 0021-0026 UT I had two Calgary FM
stations in a huge almost 3-hour sporadic E opening mainly from
Montana and NW states: 92.9, CFEX-FM a.k.a. X92.9; 92.1, CJAY-FM
a.k.a. CJ-92; and something in French on 93.5, the closest being
CBKF-FM-3 in Zenon Park, Sask. These will be reported in full once the
whole report has been researched and compiled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. Correxion: these were on July 18, not 17, entirely fixed:

96.7 FM, July 18 at 1646 UT, lexure in Spanish
during big mixed sporadic E and tropo openings; 1658 song with refrain
``Guajira``. 1659, ``Rebelde, La Habana, Emisora de la Revolución,
1700 ``Noticiero Nacional de Radio``. 1711 still in with Cuban
mentions, national weather summary, 1713 ``NN de R`` program ID again,
``en AM, FM y Onda Corta``.

Cuban FM DX is rare here, mostly too far for single-hop sporadic E,
but Habana is possible at 2095 km = 1302 miles, and westward. WTFDA FM
Database has three Rebeldes on 96.7, Bayamo and Moa too far, but this
must be:

CMBA-FM 96.7 CD. HABANA CH NEWS/TALK/VARIETY RADIO REBELDE 1.0 kWH 0.0
kWV 100.0 m HAAT 23-07-16 82-18-54 REBELDE Tx site Loma de la
Cruz/Regla
There are three other non-Rebelde 96.7s, one further west, R Mantua,
but presumably would not be RR relayers at midday. Only 1 kW
horizontal only, not very impressive for a flagship!?

Meanwhile I am hunting for other Cubans! Only one possibility:
99.1, July 18 at 1703, some CCI in Spanish. Besides two low-power
translators, this is the only full-power, and same site as 96.7:
CMBF-FM 99.1 CD. HABANA CH CLASSICAL/OPERA/ARTS RADIO MUSICAL NACIONAL
8.0 kWH only 100.0 m 23-07-16 82-18-54 RADIO TAINO Tx site Loma de la
Cruz/Regla --- R. Taíno is in the ``PS Info`` column, not sure what
that mean in practice (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2148)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, July 22 at 2152, NO signal of R. Cairo English
into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** HAWAII. 8764-USB, July 22 at 0623, robotic marine weather citing
geo coordinates in the Pacific, S9 peaks but rough modulation. USCG
broadcasts are typically poorly modulated, something which any ham
would not put up with from his own station. EiBi shows NMO, USCG
Honolulu at 0600-0635. Its other times: 0005-0040, 1200-1235,
1800-1835; while frequency is timeshared with many more broadcasts
from USCG NMN Chesapeake VA and NMC Point Reyes CA. XSR Haikou Radio
could also be there 24h in Mandarin, and XSU Yantai Radio at 07-21,
unheard now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday July 22 at 2200, REE timesignal, and --- NO
token English without explanation, instead something in Castilian
about Canciones Ténebres; usual good signal anyway into Maryland SDR.
English supposed to be M/W/F 2200-2230; maybe they ran out of rerun
material? Google translate insists that Tenebres is Catalan; but
further research implies originally French denoting darkness (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830+, July 22 at 2200, VOT succeeds transmitting the
English almost-hour, S9+25/35 into UTwente, BUT with constant
squealing, characteristic I guess of one particular transmitter or
feedline, as happens occasionally. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler. Opening news emphasizes the Ukra/Rusky agreement about grain
shipments reached in Türkiye. Also, new frequency, 9830.017
ex-9830.021 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, July 23 at 0500-0507, UR1 via WRMI, `Ukraine:
Security Issue` including Russia has lost 39,000 troops; 5000 reports
of children forcibly deported; Russia still stealing grain from
farmers; ports blockaded, but agreement to allow some exports reached
in Turkey. Good as usual via Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2148 monitoring: confirmed first
broadcasts, UT Friday July 22 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850, S9+20/30; 7730,
S9/+10 direct, both noisy.

Also confirmed UT Friday July 22 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S8/S9 direct.

Also confirmed Friday July 22 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S9/S6 direct,
trace of jamming. Next:

Also confirmed Friday July 22 at 1815.8 on IRRS SW via Bulgaria, 7290,
S7/S8 into UTwente and also on AM Italia, 1323 & 918 kHz about the
same into Noale SDR, but not 207 kHz; to completion almost 1845; then
fill music, 1849 UN News interview about a musician who had an
accident in Sardinia. 1857* 7290 chopped off already while 1323 & 918
continue with music. Also tuned in earlier: 1323 & 918 at 1758
``welcome to Country Jamboree`` for the week of July 17, just in time
to be chopped off at 1800 for IRRS `SW` ID and FSN; while as always,
7290 did not chop on until 1800.8, JIP FSN including Spotlite segment
at 1803, 1805 IRRS ID with Milano PO Box otherwise denied, music. 1813
bird calls and open TUC Radio, about effects of climate change on
marine life, just in time to be chopped off at 1815 for another long
IRRS SW ID and then WOR.

Also confirmed Fri July 22 at 2030.3 on AM Italia 918 & 1323,
following IRRS SW ID claiming that it`s on reduced carrier USB, which
it is not; besides not even being on SW air ever at this hour. Tuned
in at 2028 to a show of music from Ulster, before it`s chopped short.
1323 has ACI seemingly Romania on both sides 1314 & 1332, and now fast
SAH and CCI which could also be Romania.

Also confirmed UT Saturday July 23 after 0130 on WRMI 9395, JBA on
caradio amid a huge FM DX opening from the NW.

Also confirmed UT Saturday July 23 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5129.971, S9/+10 but noisy into Maryland SDR; PEI is offline. Next:

Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat July 23 at 0000, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW`,
soon obvious as new since refers to last week`s show about the
Webbscope. Once again, Angela is remote on a lo-fi phoneline. But I am
called to the car for FM DXing for almost 3 hours. Once again, I
request if anyone else listen to this show and hear any significant
info about WBCQ, such as new programming, technical matters such as
the crashing SuperStition, buying up other SW stations, please report
it to the WOR iog or to me (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5129.971, UR Sat July 12 at 0252-0300, managed to catch a
few minutes of Greek Music Refuge, new show on WBCQ R. Angela,
presented by Bill Tilford, but our longtime DX contributor Zacharias
Liangas says he compiled the playlist. In the absence of ERT on SW any
more. S9+10 but noisy storm crashes into Maine SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. After a few days of tantalizing not-quite sporadic
E FM DX paths to OK, UT Sat July 23 at 0000 I see MUFs exceeding 100
MHz to the NW of here on DXMAPs, so head for the hot car in the
garage. I`m there for almost 3 hours of continuous DXing, centered on
Montana, but also from Alberta, Idaho, Washington, South Dakota at
least. Occupying 5 pages in my log notebook, it will take some time to
research and compile completely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7849.3 LSB, July 22 at 0619, weak 2-way seems Spanish,
vs QRM from CHU as I am investigating its vestigial LSB. Never notice
it in normal USB or AM tuning (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 0514 UT July 23

** OKLAHOMA. 1520 kHz, July 21 at 1451, KOKC is on but remarkably
weak, e.g. graveyarder 1490, 1 kW KMFS is quite stronger, tho somewhat
closer in Guthrie (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, July 21 at 0500-0507, UR1 via WRMI, `Ukraine:
Security Issue`, for July 20 = Day 147 of Putin`s war, including
terrorism against Ukrainian civilians; forced labor and deportations
to Russia; 100K survivors are still in the destroyed city of Mariupol
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2147 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St.

Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330.191V, July 21 at 0621, WBCQ with WLCR in English,
S8/S9+10 direct. Next check at 1443, 9330.238V, S6-S9 in English. Ivo
says this is WBCQ-6, i.e. the 500 kW SuperStition; how does he know
that? Until latest crash its frequency was not offvarying like all the
`Classic` WBCQ transmitters (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7570, July 21 at 1446, only this 7 MHz WRMI frequency is on
and JBA S8/S9 vs high noise level, with TOMBS // 9980 WWCR about 10
seconds later. Current grid shows 7570 until 1500*, Saturdays to 1600*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, July 21 at 1450 UT, KLEY Wellington KS is still
dead-airing, steady daytime groundwave 250 watts. Also vs KWKH at
night, obviously not reduced to licensed one watt (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. DXMAP shows Es FM DX possibly reaching OK from the east,
July 21 at 1515 UT, so I try the caradio, yet nothing to show but some
tropo-enhanced Kansans:

93.7 at 1520, community bank ad with branches in towns such as
Minneapolis, Ellsworth -- yes, Kansas, not Minnesota. 93.7 anti-Kris
Kobach political ad for Atty General in Republican primary; says he`s
a loser in all his previous runs for other offices, and godforbid a
Democrat should become AG. Salina/Abilene ad, Y-93.7:
KYEZ 93.7 SALINA KS COUNTRY Y93.7 100.0 kW 155.0 m -- 273 km = 170 mi

94.5 at 1523, pro-Kris Kobach for Atty Genl ad, sounds like voiced by
the nauseating Ted Cruz, a non-Kansan; 1526, Dan Holliday from the
Capitol Federal Weather Center, just numbers, no local references! But
ID as ``94.5 Country`` with the most music in a row once it start:
WIBW 94.5 TOPEKA KS COUNTRY 94.5 COUNTRY 100.0 kW 370.0 m WIBW-FM BIG
94.5 COUNTRY! --- 354 km = 220 mi

96.7 at 1525, ``1290 AM, 96-7 FM``, country:
KSOB relays:KMMM-1290 96.7 LARNED KS COUNTRY TRUE COUNTRY - THE MIGHTY
1290 3.0 kW 81.0 m --- 1290 Pratt is mighty commonplace, 5/0.5 kW U4
--- 226 km = 141 mi from Larned (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, it`s a Wednesday, July 20, so time to
check for LRA36 which was absent a week ago. Tuned in at 1444 via
Argentine SDR, already on with song, S7/S9; shortly YL greeting for
the 12th program of the 2022 series `Esperanza Audaz`, a ``día muy
especial``; staff names; blows a kiss to all listeners, including via
the 50-station RNA network. 1450 temp is 7, winds 51 kph; sunrise at
09:57 local, sunset missed. Multiple-platform contact info. 1500 ``su
compañía`` ID, song. After 1500 I`m mainly attentive to Afghanistan
documentary on PBS World, about the anti-Soviet Jihad years; but let
it run without trying to understand much of the content. 1504, This
Week in History starting with 18 July 1918 birth of Nelson Mandela.
1516 song about Esperanza; 1519 chat; 1522 contact info again; 1527
long lofi telco interview. At 1533 I see that all four RXs at this
remote are on it, besides me, Gary Pence, `San Antonio` but really
Dallas; and someones in Florence, Italy and Dayton, Oregon. 1550 song.
1554 greeting with reverb, seems sent by a listener. 1601 song, talk,
1613 ID, song; 1629 still chat, 1641 song, 1643 ID with staff names
and off at 1644*. So I had it for exactly two hours.

Gary Pence reports at 1510: ``LRA 36: Hi Glenn, I got on just before
you to already hear LRA36 song in progress at 1440z, I just don't know
when they started. I wasn't able to use KFS SE [antenna] this morning
so I switched over to KPH Point Reyes omni antenna just to hear a
trace.`` And at 1615: ``LRA 36 stuff --- Glenn, I finally got a seat
at KFS SE SDR and was very underwhelmed at the lack of signal; it was
just traces, nothing sustainable. Sounds like they have pretty serious
power regulation issues going on there. Remember in the movie Apollo
13 where the portable cassette deck with very low batteries was
tumbling in that cold capsule? That's just how their audio sounds...``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 4985+, July 20 at 0640, R. Brasil Central is JBA not just
JBA carrier, slightly plus and without 2-receiver matching, seems //
same music and talk on 11815++ which is a bit further off-frequency,
but tolerable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. Immediately after compiling my July 18 FMDX
report on July 19, DXMAPS show the MUF finally into FM band to here as
it`s transitioning into UT July 20, so out to the garaged car thru the
heat dropping slightly around 100. Standard provisos as introducing
previous reports.

96.7 at 2359, hard rock, a couple dropouts to dead air for a few
seconds; ``The Rock Station, KLT`` VG but fades out by 2400. Searching
96.7 Slogan field on KLT gets no hits since DB has it as KL:T with a
:colon: spurious punxuation? It is:
WRGZ 96.7 ROGERS CITY MI CLASSIC ROCK KL:T THE ROCK STATION 42.0 kW
162.0 m WKLT 97.5 & WBCM 93.5 & WGRZ 96.7 Rock //WKLT 97.5 & WBCM 93.5
--- I had heard 97.5 & 93.5 ones July 2. WRGZ: 1537 km = 935 mi

Now it`s UT July 20:

95.3 at 0003, hard rock overrides KOKC translator, gone before any ID

94.3 at 0005, outro NPR News, CCI KS, ``Inspired`` program. Strong
fade-ins. A bit of ``Kix on Route 66`` song and talking about the PBS
show `Great Muslim-American Road Trip`, another episode of which is
coming up tonight and I am watching it as I write after 0200.

WTFDA FM DB Search funxion does not apply to all fields, just 10 major
ones, not including Mode or Remarks. Otherwise one must display an
entire frequency file on one page - pick 500 to be sufficient.
Searching entire 94.3 USA file on NPR gets WCMV and 2 other hits: WZAI
Brewster MA; and K232AM, China Lake CA translator of Nevada PR and
presumably National PR. We can rule those out!

Also the MODE column where HD sometimes appears even more rarely is
labeled mono (but $ tereo must be understood, u.o.s.). Such is the case
with WZAI.

A drawback of this DB is that there is no column/field for NETWORK! I
still would like to know for sure all the NPR affils on 94.3. Of
course, these days, many stations, commercial or not, are affiliated
with more than one, even multiple nets. E.g. an NPR is probably, but
not necessarily, also getting shows from APR and PRX.

At the main website https://www.npr.org/ there is no obvious link to a
simple list of stations and frequencies! But the first thing they want
to set up is *your* NPR station after which nothing else matters,
driving financial support thataway.

However a broader search leads to this roster by state and city,
https://legacy.npr.org/stations/pdf/nprstations.pdf
but why ``legacy``? Implying it is historical rather than up to date??
Aha, abottom it`s dated JUNE 2013! BTW I do not see a single
translator-style call! Tho surely there be many. The 94.9 KOSU relay
in Ponca City doesn`t make this list!

There I can anyway search on 94.3 and get only 2 hits: of course,
non-comms 92+ are a rarity and thus should be outstanding.

Per this we have: WBTN-FM Bennington VT, and WZAI-FM Brewster MA - but
no station in Leland MI! Another oddity is that every single callsign
is suffixed -FM, which is not always the case. Except for the few AMs,
where there should NOT ever be any -AM suffix.

How about this?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NPR_stations
Hopefully uptodate, but admittedly incomplete:

``List of NPR stations From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ---
The following is a list of full-power non-commercial educational radio
stations in the United States broadcasting programming from National
Public Radio (NPR), which can be sorted by their call signs,
frequencies, band, city of license and state. HD Radio subchannels and
low-power translators are not included. ``

BTW, Wikipedia also linx to the 2013 NPR page, so I guess there is
nothing more recent from NPR itself.

I do not see any way to sort by frequency, but can search the whole
page on 94.3, which gets us 4:

KBYI Rexburg ID -- o yeah, I DXed that one recently
WZAI Brewster MA
WCMV-FM Leland MI!
WBTN-FM Bennington VT

Anyhow, only MI is in today`s PTA:
WCMV-FM 94.3 LELAND MI NEWS/CLASSICAL CMU PUBLIC RADIO 20.5 kW
233.0 m NPR --- 1399 km = 869 mi

WCMV would be relaying WCMU. Own website can`t locate own program
sked! But it does find this show at the time I heard it, 8 pm [EDT]
Tuesday, claiming to be only PR show exclusively about religion:
https://radio.wcmu.org/show/inspired
I had never run across it on any other station.

93.5 at 0012, CCI with Kansas, ad for an adventure park,
urbanairsudbury.com Website really leads to:
https://www.urbanair.com/ontario-sudbury/
so it`s certainly:
CIGM-FM 93.5 SUDBURY ON CAN CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO HOT 93.5 100.0 kWH
43.0 kWV 150.0 m horiz only THE NEW HOT 93.5 FM Top 40 --- 1794 km =
1115 mi

95.1 at 0014, French Canadian conversation overrides KS/OK stations,
0018-0020 VG peak, then fadeout; certainly this near Sudbury PTA:
CBON-FM-17 relays:CBON-FM 98.1 95.1 NORTH BAY ON CAN French NEWS/TALK
ICI RADIO-CANADA PREMIERE 100.0 kW 145.0 m horiz only --- There are
four others, all in far Québec and N-B, low power except for CBF-FM
itself in Montréal. 1884 km = 1171 mi

93.9 at 0023, some rock music DX tries to overcome dead air from
presumed KIMY but can`t make it. Of course I cannot manipulate
antenna

93.1 at 0025, ``93 K-Rock``. No hits unless you ditch the hyphen for a
space; there it is again as in two previous openings this summer. This
and other stations are rather lax about whether to include the number
after the decimal in slogan IDs:
WIMK 93.1 IRON MOUNTAIN MI ROCK 93.1 K ROCK 100.0 kW 180.0 m --- 1331
km = 827 mi

96.7 at 0030, praise rock, soon CCI from another rock, both fade 0031;
hard rock in & out again at 0033, as I quit.

94.5 at 0058, another quick check in toohotcar, some rock here may be
skip. After that MUF falls (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1520 kHz, July 20 at 1704 UT, KOKC is OFF! In FMDX
bandscan across 95.3 I check for // to the translator, but nothing on
1520. This may mean that refurbishing their 50 kW direxional license
is finally underway. If off tonight maybe a DX opportunity; but back
on at 1858 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 92.3, July 20 at 1706 UT, Dan Bongino show is restarting
on usual fringe signal, so now sure it`s KMZE Woodward, altho neither
station nor show will confirm such a hookup. Bandscanning for Es DX
but none showing in next 18 minutes (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 93.9, July 20 at 1705 UT, KIMY Watonga is back in
business with gospel music instead of dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, July 20 at 0502-0508, UR1 via WRMI, VG into
Maryland, 2 minutes of UU before English `Ukraine: Security Issue`
including at least 353 Ukrainian children killed by the Russians;
strixe against Vinnitsa civilians, far from any military target;
losses in Russian war equipment (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
