** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Feb 16 at 1520, no signal of LRA36 into
two Brazilian SDRs, but JBA this Wednesday into Brasília, and
Montevideo, S1-S2 with 1525 ID, 1527 Antárdida themesong, past 1547
but gone before 1603. Sam Sánchez, Oregon had it as early as 1414 via
Brasília; and Wolfgang Büschel, Germany, 1500-1520 via Montevideo
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6000, Feb 16 at 0700, S9+20 of dead air from RHC;
all other frequencies are off already as I expect this one shortly
shall be too. Something`s always wrong? at RHC. 5040 however bears a
JBA carrier, presumably VANUATU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 7220, Feb 16 at 2305, I am plenty busy simulmonitoring
English from SPAIN and TURKEY [qq.vv.] at once but make a quick check
of RRI: at UTwente, very heavy rapid clicking ranging 7200-7240, OTH
radar? centred right on maybe a trace of RRI. But at Maryland SDR,
much further beyond W European target, RRI is loud and clear with none
of that QRM. Or could be local problem at UTwente? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 16 at 2307, token REE English is not off the
air but VG S9+15/27 into Maryland SDR. After news, feature about a
``ghost village`` uncovered in a draining reservoir; 2310 about Gala
cinema awards in Valencia, not in Castilian. Shortly retune to TURKEY,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Feb 16 tune-in from Spain at 2316, closing
a `Feeling Supreme` feature about some remedy, +018 Hz offset and
S9+35 into UTwente but annoying hum. Otherwise sufficient modulation
and no squeal. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. 2318 `Weekly
Commentary` penned by someone in a Washington DC branch, but neither
intro nor outro can I understand their name or credentials, as voiced
by the YL with heavy accent, but it`s about Qatar as a useful non-NATO
ally. 2329, `Turkey`s Cultural Treasures,` something dating back
thousands of years; but at 2330 it`s my time for `NBC Nightly [sic]
News` already before sunset here. Later always enjoyable Turkish music
fill, 2353 the usual OM announcer sign-off of the ``1230-1330 on 15450
to Europe`` broadcast! Which is doubly erroneous, the A-season
scheduling only. Something`s always awry at Ankara. The CCCCCCI has
been growing and uncovered at VOT 2354* after only a fragment of one
IS iteration (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re 305 kHz, my Feb 15 log of beacon OI, S. Sioux City NE,
Rick Barton replies: ``Hey Glenn. My only expertise here is being a
DXer and being the son of two general aviation pilots.

Many of the NDBs used to set up approaches to airports use 5 letter
names, i.e., "BILOY" that sets up for Billard Airport in Topeka,
Kansas. of course, the beacon call is "TO". This is also true of
enroute IFR "intersections", such as the "PAYSO" intersection, NW of
Phoenix, but close to Payson, AZ. Another beacon, that sets up an
approach for Charles City (IA) airport, is designated "CHUKK" (get it?
Charles, Chuck Hi HI).

Anyway, I learned over time that some of the airnav sites are named
for purely local things like nearby golf courses, businesses, rivers
and lakes, or even ghost towns. Someone from South Sioux City, Neb.
might have your answer.

It may be that the airport where the beacon is located, Martin Field,
was named for Tom Martin. Beacons "at the field" are usually named for
the airport itself, and may not use the 5 letter rule. But I took a
look at the aviation chart and saw right off that the beacon is one of
two that set up approaches for Sioux City Gateway Airport's Runway
13/31. (The other beacon is SU-"SALIX"). It may have been convenient
that the nearby town of Salix, IA, has 5 letters! 73 from the Sonoran
Desert - rb`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 335 MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 0654 UT, BV, 25-watt ND
beacon at BatesVille, Arkansas; mixing with dash and YLD, 1000 watts
at Chapleau, Ontario which is normally heard without any BV.

245 MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 0700 UT, FS, 400 watt NDB at Sioux Falls, South
Dakota; tuned to 243 USB. A regular not always logged, but note not a
trace now nor ever on 243 of RTLuxembourg, which WRTH says is 24h with
750,000 watts day, 375,000 night, direxional 227 degrees toward Paris

air again over a trace of KWKH. Groundwave weaker than usual at S6/S7.
KLEY had been successfully musicking since last report (Glenn Hauser,

684, 774, 1044, 1215, i.e. surely KIRITIMATI vs remnants from Europe:
Spain and UK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0031 UT February 17

** EGYPT. 9899.60, Feb 15 at 2121 check, R. Cairo is 100% improved: NO
signal into UTwente! However, at 2204 UT, Andy Reid, Ontario tells the
WOR iog: ``With varying degrees of audio quality, I don’t believe it
is the transmitters. They are on now in English 9900 with some audio
squeaking though. I did hear the word “president“!`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960+, Feb 15 at 2333, VOT direct is S9/S6 but just barely
modulated. Checking UTwente at 2348 it`s +016 Hz high, undermodulated
but sufficient if you turn up the volumes on strong S9+27 signal;
compared to e.g. much louder 6015 station, Kazakh from East Turkistan,
standard denunciation. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. 2353
unusual s/off by heavily accented YL as if this were the 1330
broadcast, IS until 2356* uncovering another Urumqi in Chinese, its
CCCCCCI having been audible before TRT quit. Now at least until the
0000 timesignal, another carrier is making a rumbling SAH, unaccounted
for in listings, so I guess it may be the Emirler exciter before
turned off completely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 305 MCW kHz, Feb 15 at 0711 UT, OI, 25-watt ND beacon at
sIOux City / Tommi, Iowa. What means Tommi? Top search hits lead to a
Finnish masculine name; a girl`s name and a VR game. Adding Sioux City
leads to S.C. people named that; and OI axually located across the
border in South Sioux City, Nebraska!
https://opengovny.com/place/ChIJwxQS3cQGjocRz90zVBZkN3M
Also leads to a street view of the transmitter box and antenna. Still
lacking is any explanation of why this and so many other NDBs are at

** U S A. 9455, Feb 15 at 1612, NO signal from WRMI-5 which is
supposedly 24/7 including TOMBS cult all day, according to skedgrid
now labeled as ``WRMI B21 Broadcast Schedule as of January 20, 2023``
[sic!]; but other WRMIs, 9395 & 9955 are on and well audible. 9455
azimuth is 285 degrees, close to thisaway, same as 7730 which when on
has a better signal here.

On 9455, no sign either of CNR1 jammer or RFA Chinese via Saipan as
scheduled this hour, but M/W/F only and this is Tuesday, instead:

9720, Feb 15 at 1613, music with fast SAH, repeating melody like an
unknown interval signal, 1614 other music, S6-S8. This is the Tue &
Thu RFA Chinese via SAIPAN frequency and CNR1 jammer, instead of 9455
M/W/F. So what about 16-17 UT Sat & Sun? 9900 shown by WRTH 2022. This
jumparound obviously does not escape ChiCom jamming, so why bother?
Must confuse casual non-DXer listeners.

9455 is back on with SMTV cult at next check 0118 UT Feb 16; as WRMI
skedgriddled at 01-07 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0312 UT February 16

** CUBA. 9700, Feb 14 at 0712, S9/+10 of dead air, trace? of
modulation, the only RHC frequency still emanating. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Feb 14 at 2228, RHC still on here, S9+5 in Spanish,
instead of scheduled 2130* after French // much weaker 15370. Checking
all bands next few minutes, no other RHC frequencies active on 15, 13,
11, 9, 7, 6 MHz; except 11880 English, S8-S4 and suptorted. At 2240 a
Cuban seeks pen-pals, with his postal address, then ``amigos de la
onda corta, Nuestra América, revista informativa``. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT [and non]. 9899.60, Feb 14 at 2218 direct, R. Cairo S9/S7 but
JBM and suptorted in music. Continues as total failure. At 2237 there
is a weak het from something on 9900.0, i.e. the TAIWAN/CHINA radio
war from 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15215, Feb 14 at 2226, vocal SE Asian music, S5/S2, best if
not only signal from west on mostly vacant band; it`s KSDA amid
Vietnamese hour, beamed even further west from Agat. One can only
wonder how 7DA meshes or conflicts with Vietnamese culture, as well as
its countless other targets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** LUXEMBOURG. 234 kHz, Feb 13 at 2326, RTL VG into UTwente, during
special about history of pirate radio. At tune-in a put-off, English
and French narration mixing at same level! One must be voice-over of
the other, which should be avoided except possibly when there be
stereo separation. About R. Caroline, clip of ``199`` ID = metres;
2329 French only, about R. Atlanta. Too much else going on at this
hour to keep listening, e.g. UBMP, not to mention WOR. BTW, in my LW
bandscans for beacons I never hear a trace of this 375/750 kW signal
nor any other European LWBC.

Richard Langley, NB, tells the WOR iog: ``Interesting show. Although
the commentary is in French, there was lots of English in the sound
clips and jingles from the different English stations. And the pop
songs of course. And those with a smattering of French can follow the
drift. I recorded the show using the U. Twente SDR receiver with good
quality. But the podcast is even better:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Feb 13 at 2308, novelty song about bride
of Frankenstein, I guess for Valentines Day, S9+15; 2310 another song;
2312 segué to Mideast tune but English lyrix about rock `n` roll;
2315.5 Outhouse Radio ID, SSTV. Many more logs here with lots of noisy
fuzzy SSTV images:

** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 11650+, Feb 14 at 0334, S7-S9 of
Hornish-of-Africish music, 0335 announcement, more music, mostly talk
past 0348. Outstanding signal at first seems the OSOB = only signal on
band, until I find also a JBA carrier on 11875, so instead it`s the
SSOB = strongest signal on band. At 0352 I switch to Knoxville SDR
which is getting 11650 better, S7-S9 reading also, during dialog talk
and carrier offset displayed as +53.6 Hz, varying to +52.3 Hz. It`s
Radio Tamazuj, via MADAGASCAR, which also accounts for
offfrequenciness. MUF barely to 12 MHz is funxional for this
trans-equatorial signal; but the 11875 must be VOA Somali via UAE,
close to trans-polar (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690 reactivated after AWOL Friday, Monday Feb 14 at 2300,
token REE English, VG via Maryland SDR; after news mainly interview
about a Greek film; but at 2325 acknowledging World Radio Day
yesterday with UNESCO statement about it, and last minute at 2329 a
bit of a Spanish version of Elvis Costello`s ``Radio, Radio`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Feb 14 at 2259, BBC closes but nothing from VOT
English to us during the entire hour as monitored via UTwente. Instead
a weak carrier which bumps up to S9 at 2309, JIP PBS Xinjiang,
Mandarin in progress from Urumqi, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide
against Uighurs and other Moslems. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler; so no contest whether to listen to this or SPAIN, q.v. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K. Feb 14 tune in Emma Toc webcast at 1843 when live again,
https://www.mixcloud.com/live/RadioEmmaToc/
Jim Salmon preparing to drink worldwide toasts to 2MT at 1900 ---
axually three toasts: to 2MT; radio hams who promoted; and to first
DJ, Peter Pendleton Echersley(sp?) with a clip of him CQing --- during
which the stream to me stalls. Apparently a re-creation some ten years
later. Chat keeps going including overhearing 2m? ham contacts past
1930. We continue to wonder and marvel how Emma and Toc ever emerged
as fonetix for MT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 5945.095, Feb 14 at 0316, JBA S6/S8 carrier
off-frequency in 5950 WRMI splash. Aoki shows this hour only it`s BBC
Arabic via UAE site, another one which accomplishes inaccurate
frequencies. See also SUDAN SOUTH [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2125 monitoring: Also confirmed Sun
Feb 13 at 2100.8 on AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+8/12 via nearby Noale SDR;
preceded by someshow about Montenegro`s entry into the Eurovision Song
Contest, 2100 IRRS SW ID. Initially lots of noise
but cleared up by WOR time; power output surges at station? Also
checked at UTwente tuning MW rather than SW: at 2120, 1323 kHz is good
and clear into other side of Europe, S6-S7 over slight CCI.

Also confirmed Sun Feb 13 at 2341 the 2330 on WRMI 5950, S9+35/20 into
Knoxville SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 14 at 0030 on WRMI 0030, S9+10/20 into

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 14 from 0402.7 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160
minus 29 Hz = 6159.971, S9 into Knoxville SDR; running a bit late: at
0356, multiple repeat IDs of ``WDCD Radio``, and ``Wanton Display of

off-frequency near 5010, possibly hetting RMI, but not lately; when

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1942 UT February 13

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Feb 12 at 1525, RNASG confirmed on this
Saturday, JBA S1 music into Brasília SDR; LRA36 ID; Pardinho a trace
in the noise; Campo best at S2. 1550 about ``la noche polar``; 1554
``todo por hoy``, Antártida themesong and apparently off, nothing
further heard. Sam Sánchez, Oregon had been hearing it via same
remotes as early as 1420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.607v, Feb 12 at 2128, R. Cairo, S9+40 into UTwente, but
dead air except for some hum and maybe trace of modulation. Wiggle
that patchcord! Something`s always egregious in Egypt. At 2146 the
signal drops off, or rather down below noise level but Synch stays
locked to remaining signal as above; 2147 back up and more brief drops
to S6 vs S9+40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. Re the mystery on 5910 Friday only at 1730-1800, which
on Feb 11 was totally dead air: The original version of the WRTH
Update has been amended without notice to show this additional info;
as I heard GB reference it on C.A.R.N.:

``WRTH B21 SCHEDULE UPDATES - FEBRUARY 2022 www.wrth.com
CLANDESTINE AND OTHER TARGET BROADCASTS

Target: IRAN (IRN)
CHANNEL ONE TV (NEW ENTRY)
W: https://ch1.cc/ E: mahastim@ch1.cc
Farsi Days Area kHz
1730-1800 ....f.. AFG 5910
Notes: Opposition TV station based in Canoga Park, Los Angeles.
Weekly broadcast relayed on SW to Iran``

So why does it show AFG as Area target? Still nothing about the true
site. How did they get this info since there was NO modulation this
week? The website is well-developed, and remains mostly in Farsi even
if you click on ENGLISH; searching on 5910 goes nowhere, and can`t
find anything about radio broadcasts but plenty about satellite TV.
Google can translate it, not DeepL (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6920-, Feb 13 at 0305, S6-S7 music, 0410 JBA S5-S6.
Slightly on the low side. These earlier made it Radio Pushka:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,92919.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 12 at 2308, VOT at S9+15/25 into UTwente, but
with that pervasive squeal. Narrowing filter from default 9.0 kHz,
down from 2.61 to 2.37 kHz gets rid of it, so squeal is approx. 2.5v
kHz. But that leaves the remaining program audio rather lo-fi,
especially music. Checking the Autonotch box does nothing about this.
After news, 2309 sounds like ``The Firsts of Anatolia``; later at 2325
repeating already yesterday`s `Feeling Supreme` about cracking hands.
By now the CCCCCCI underneath is quite audible from East Turkistan,
land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems.
Off at 2350* uncovering ET. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
For many years I was on the P-mailing list once or twice a year for
VOT program schedules. Is there any such thing on the TV-dominated
website now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2125 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday February 12 at 0230 on WRMI 9395 -- barely. JBA S2/S3 direct;
at 0233, JBA carrier into Missouri SDR; JBA S5/S7 with hi noise level
into Winnipeg; but at 0235 VG! S9+10/15 into Minneapolis SDR which
must be at ideal azimuth and skip distance from Okeechobee, and/or

** U S A. 4789.993, Feb 12 at 2357, via UTwente which I had running
for Turkey, checking for WBCQ and there it is with IS & ID loop, noisy
S7/S8, unlistenable, but I suppose pretty good for <50 kW off the
back. But heavy splash from 4800 China. 2400 `UBMP` starts in the test
series, this week from 0000 to 0200, but from UT Feb 14 between 0100
and 0300. Feb 13 at 0005 much better into Missouri SDR, S8/S9+10 but
not solid noise-free; agrees minus 7 Hz offset. Direct at 0009, S9/+10
but noisy and fading down and up; later more like -8 Hz.

4790, Feb 13 at 0257, WBCQ still on here, closing `Underground Jam`,
NY? address, S9+10/20 vs CODAR; about a minute of dead air until 0300
canned WBCQ ``family`` sign-off. Not part of UB`s test curation, at
0000-0200 only, this date. WBCQ 4790 sked shows nothing but TOMBS
24/7, tho canceled some weeks ago:

** U S A. 5950, UT Sun Feb 13, WRMI S9+30 with Texas Radio SW special
tribute to the late Dr Tim, Europirate. Synthetic Susan`s accent is
often hard to understand as she names each `station` only once, so
names copied may be incorrect guesses. Off-air recording clips may or
may not include a readable ID, often lo-fi. 0021 Gold Cup Radio. 0025
Trans-Atlantic Broadcast. 0028 FSK32 image beepery. 0034 Parade Radio.
0036 Lifetime Radio. So far it seems Dr Tim`s musical range is rather
narrow pop/rock. 0040 classical piece but jazzed up. 0043 Radio
Carneval. 0046 something about a 100-watt transmitter. QSL offer for
at least 20 minutes of details. Sense of humour: ``Hier ist Doktor
Tim`` polka. 0056 SSTV beepery. 0058 TRSW outro and version of YROT
theme (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5850, UT Sun Feb 13 at 0100, this WRMI-12 is OFF again
tonight! One of the best frequencies, aimed thisaway, but still on
7780 WRMI-1 for `Encore` classical music; no good here but listening
via Maryland SDR good S9+15, and S9 further to UTwente. 5850 still off
at 0526 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Feb 13 circa 0035, WTWW-2 sounds like Bob Heil
but he`s talking ham rather than thorgans, 0100 ID treating Star
Spangled Banner like a jingle, gospel huxter; finally 0103 starts
`Theater Organ Under The Arch` for the next hour or so; but I`m
listening to `Encore` classical on anagram 5850 WRMI-12. BTW, I
happened to hear later on ARRL News via WA0RCR that Bob has
sold/retired from HeilSound but as emeritus will continue to do
outreach (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 2097.3 CW, Feb 12 at 0657, JBA single-letter beacon A
every dekasecond, reconfirmed active, from anywhere but Quartzsite AZ
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
