 ** AZORES. 6114, Feb 11 at 0652, RTTY INTRUDER is back, S9/+10 vs JBA 6115 carrier from Japan. Believed to be USN Azores (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Feb 11 at 0653, RHC English, S9+10/20 including big humbuzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Others are clear: 6000 VG S9+20/30; at 0658, 9700 VG S9+30/40 and 5040 S9+20/30. Some of these probably about to quit circa 0700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 11 at 0702 UT, PN, 25-watt NDB at Ponca City, is off again (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Friday Feb 11 at 2259, NO signal from REE! N American frequency is off. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas. I`ve cleared a semihour to listen to Spain and/or Turkey English at 2300; running two remotes at the computer. Maryland for Spain, which soon finds the other three frequencies active: 11685 weakish with usual RTTY QRM, but 11940 for S America VG S9+10/20 and 12030 Mideast, VG S9+10/15 like a local, so I keep on it! Almost as if knowing that the NAm transmitter is down, REE redirected the 12030 toward us, or at least bidirexional. But even under normal circumstances it`s good for us off the back, often better than 9690 depending on OWF and time of day. So I`m mostly listening to VOTurkey at same time, q.v., via UTwente. On headphones, one of them panned for some separation. Both start with news of course and you can guess the prime topix now. At 2311, REE into an Amy Egan feature about the Eurovision Song Contest this year, May in Torino, but Spain already picked its entry; and about previous years. Sounds like they are all hard-rock, yuk. 2324 it`s over and Justin Coe read my mind, after all that pop-rock, time for a respite of some 200-year-old-music, a Lied from Schubert`s Winterreise about Frühling, danke! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Feb 11 at 2300, VOT English is on today with VG signal into UTwente and modulation, only a hint of squeal. I`ve cleared a semihour to listen to Spain and/or Turkey, almost the only Europeanish SW services in English to N America at this hour. (There is Romania also but officially not for us beyond W Europe, yet putting a VG signal into Maryland on 7220, unlike the other 3 either off or aimed away.) So I`m mostly listening to Spain at same time, q.v. On headphones, one of them panned for some separation. Both start with news of course and you can guess the prime topix now. At 2315, `Weekly Analysis`, by some professor, Turkey`s policy on the Ukraine crisis; Tatars, the related Turkic people in Crimea, are a significant factor. 2329, `Feeling Supreme`, on ``natural cures for cracking hands due to cold; eczema``. Now especially during pauses the CCCCCCI is obvious underneath from East Turkistan, standard denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6125, Feb 11 at 0430, VOT English is on, S9/+10 into Maryland, modulation OK, no squeal; 0433 a talk about augmented reality. At 0358 direct I feared it would be late or missing, no interval signal yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2125 monitoring: confirmed UT Friday February 11 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, S6-S9 into St Lucia SDR after usual IS/ID loop until ``top of the hour`` [sic]. S9/+10 into Missouri SDR but noisy with bleed from 5980 jamming. Also confirmed Friday February 11 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9 direct but seems undermodulated compared to e.g. blasting/ed 9980 WWCR. Also confirmed Friday February 11 from 1915.5 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria, VG into UTwente; and not quite synchronized on IRRS via AM Italia 1323 kHz. Previously tuned in both before 1900: 7290 from *1859 carrier, as always no modulation until JIP Feature Story News just before 1901. 1323 is already in FSN but rapid SAH and CCI from Romania in domestic German. But AM Italia has some breaks in transmission or modulation, before WOR at 1902-1903, 1911-1912, and JIP late at 1916; now the German QRM is severe. I can`t bear to listen any further, but at least 7290 has been running without breaks. Note: the Fri 1915 airings to be pre-empted next week Feb 18. Also confirmed Fri Feb 11 at 2154 the 2130 on AM Italia only, 1323 kHz. Now there is no QRM, good S9+10 steady signal into nearby Noale SDR. But at 2156 WOR signal drops down abruptly into noise level but is still barely audible; back up in less than a minute, so still transmission problems at AM Italia [or maybe the SDR?]. WOR plays to completion, IRRS ID, 2200 Feature Story News, 2205 UN News, 2209 still on, into music; off sometime before next check 2227. Next: 0230 UT Saturday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2030vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0530] 1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0400vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] 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 Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support. Thanks this week to James Ferry, Thornville, OH 43076, for a contribution via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com not necessarily US$ One may also contribute by MO or check in US$ on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5850, Feb 11 at 0347, this WRMI-12 is OFF; all others seem on as usual; 0655 recheck, 5850 back on with TOMBS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (6160v), UT Saturday Feb 12 from 0100, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW`, says it`s live from Fla studio. First denounces horrible cable TV people for being dishonest; why doesn`t everybody stream their entertainment like A&A, from Netflix, etc.? Transmitter site in Maine is buried after 3 snowstorms of 12-20 inches each, piled up to 3-4 feet or more than a sesquimeter. Could be even worse in March. They support the trucker protesters in Ottawa and elsewhere. Criticizes Putin over Ukraine: this is not the 1920s or the 1820s; also Moslems, not the 820s. Wars are outmoded. Against ``the cult of the mask``. 0121, trimulcasting on 7490, 6160, 4790. New 4790 service starting March 1 will be called ``Radio Angela`` following Uncle Bill`s tests in February. Will be a ``premier`` service with new music, great alternative programming, 4h per night starting at 7 or 8 pm Eastern. Mostly music, some radio theater. Example week 3 of the tests, detailed night by night, but UB has not sent those to us. Will include some from WHVW and WXNZ. This will NOT BE STREAMED. You will have to listen on a SW radio or OK via a remote SDR. 4790 has excellent TimTron audio and is being improved even more. Only religious content allowed on it will be music. ``Gotta get Glenn Hauser`s WORLD OF RADIO on the lineup, the only real DX show left``, says Allan. 0137 call from Cracker, trucker protests spreading, anti-vax, Allan agrees. 0146, a 5-minute podcast lexure by someone, ``A brief history of slavery`` --- it`s existed thru human history, was not started by whites, but ended by whites, so don`t blame them. A&A going to Ham-Cation in Orlando this weekend, Allan in a safari hat. 0156 Email, someone`s birthday. Elon going to moon to dispose of spent Tesla batteries? And several more, no Free Radio Weekly tho it was promptly published almost two hours ago. 0159 prayer; 0200 this stream goes to some blah-blah-blah screamer. At the computer I did not check the SW frequencies at all this time, remotedly or directedly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5910, Friday Feb 11 at *1730-1800.7*, open carrier dead air except for some hum, equally good into UTwente at S9/+15 and into Kuwait SDR at S8-S9. Checking out the mystery in WRTH Updater which says new unknown clandestine in Farsi for Iran, Fridays only, site unknown too. At 1747 a trace of modulation, but maybe cross- or QRM. 1748 two brief noise bursts could be QRM or failed attempt to make a connexion. Did not even try TDOA since no modulation for delay timing. Evitable ACI from weak 5915 probably Zambia, and continuous CW on 5916 which EiBi lists as RCV, Russian Navy. I reminded the WOR iog of this an hour earlier; Hansjoerg Biener and Zacharias Liangas report the same results on 5910. Shortly Wolfgang Büschel replied: ``MOLDOVA 5910 / 5909.999 kHz ONLY CARRIER total empty channel from late CRASH start 1730:51 UT, to TX-OFF switch at 1800:37, some 100 / 200 / 300 Hertz apart distance strings on both sidebands. Kiwi-server TdOA function showed signal origin of Radioteletsentr (PRTC) transmitter Grigoriopol Maiac in Russian speaking community Pridnestrovie oblast. S=9+5dB or -69dBm signal in Kuwait Kiwi remotedly, S=9+10dB or -64dBm in western Europe and Athens Greece Kiwi_sets. 73 wb df5sx`` I wonder how precise and definite that TDOA was? Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria shortly responded elsewise: ``Tx hum is same as of RRTM Telecom Tashkent [UZBEKISTAN] previous day at same time but on 5925 kHz for Sae Nala`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0213 UT February 12

 ** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 10 at 0701, JBA carrier, surely R. Kiribati; while no trans-Atlantic signals are making it. A few nights ago, 846 was stronger than usual, but never able to pull any audio from it. Tnx to Gary DeBock, here`s what it would be like:
``846-Kiribati has a very early fade in (around 0500 UTC in the Oregon coast), and signs off around 1015 UTC.

Nothing comparable among few week known signals on 16 mb. Most likely it`s VOA Grimesland NC testing prior to scheduled service on quite different frequency, 17655 from 1700 or 17700 from 1900 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNSOLICITED TESTIMONIAL ``Just a short word. I started listening to SW radio when in high school back around 1980 when I was 14-15 and listened to you regularly for several years. Thank you! The information you provided was absolutely fascinating at a time when world communications really were at the heart of understanding the world. I am glad to find that you are still doing the program. Thank you for what you do. I am planning to get into Ham radio this year, taking the ARRL exam and going from there.

 ** ANTARCTICA [and non?]. 15475.98 RCUSB, Wed Feb 9 not tuned in until 1558, feared too late, but LRA36 still on air with music, VP S3 into Campo, Brasil SDR, no better at Brasília #2. Still going at 1601, but 1602 QRMed by unID 2-way on 15475.00 USB exactly. Maybe Spanish but so colloquial I can`t be sure. Then nothing more from LRA36. I wonder if the 2-wayers and LRA36 are aware of each other. Occasional 2-way contacts next few minutes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13740, Feb 9 at 2310, S9+25/40 of dead air in Spanish from RHC. 13680 is off; something`s always wrong at RHC. 13650 is on with usual Chinese music replacing CRI in Portuguese (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9899.605, Feb 9 at 2155, R. Cairo S9+5/15 and suptorted in English, via Maryland remote tuned to 9900 showing SAM offset -395 Hz, same as stable direct readout daily from UTwente. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6920-, February 9 at 0346 from music into ID as ``--- radio station``, then sounds like Russian rock; 0357 hard rock song sounds with Russian lyrix past hourtop 0403+. Probably R. Pushka [gun/rifle], I`ve heard previously on this offset frequency slightly low, maybe from western USA, but no HFU reports of it at this time. Pushka posts directly on HFU such as within: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,92719.0.html ``Offline RadioPushka Jr. Member ** Posts: 34 I am an idiot, I acknowledge that.

Maybe one day I can get an RF amplifier. But still not bad for 15 watt carrier and 1/4 vertical.`` Other recent reports not evening or at my time, rather 10/15 UT span: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,92746.0.html https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,92688.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, February 9 at 2303 direct, no signal from VOT English to N America; still nil at 2312, 2319 chex. At 2337 via UTwente, S9 on 5960.001 --- but it`s Chinese! i.e. PBS Xinjiang, Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems. Don`t buy anything made by their slave labor. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 6993, Feb 9, 2022 at 0724 UT, JBA carrier, presumed same as last logged Oct 4, 2021, when I also referenced this from 2017: ``6993, Sept 10 [2017] at 0002, JBA carrier as almost always audible from presumed WH2XWF, experimental 164-watt transmitters with several locations in Florida, to study ionospheric disturbances, never IDing, nothing but dead air``. So new log for the record (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2124 monitoring: ``Dear Glenn: World of Radio #2124, confirmed, below with details, location, St. Albert, Alberta, Details: 5850, 0132, 0144, 0158 (55434), 0159, just made it hearing #2124, February 4 UT [Fri] 9395, muddy, noisy, 0241, 0244, 0258, S7 signal, 0259, February 5 UT [Sat] 7730, jamming [?!?], 0030 (55433), 0044, 0057 (45433), 0059, February 6 UT [Sun] 7730, 0030, can’t hear him, 0040, voice, below S7 signal, 0059, concludes, 0058, Feb 7 UT [Mon] 9395, 0130, 0150 (35442), 0159 Feb 8 UT [Tue! new time I was unaware of but now on program schedule --- gh] 9955, 2330, #2124, confirmed hearing jingle, QRN, 2344, listened to streaming FM Creek, 2359, February 8 UT [Tue] 5850, 1030, 1031, 1040, signal S9, 1043, 1058 confirmed #2124, 1059, Feb 9 UT [Wed] (Lemke, Richard -AB)`` I happen to awaken at 1030 UT Wednesday February 9 so check WRMI 5850: confirmed, VG direct.

 ** AUSTRALIA. 2368.43, Feb 8 at 2102, S4-S5 with fades of Greek songs past 2125 via VK2GGC SDR, R. Symban. There has been lots of good discussion about this by nearby Aussies in the WOR iog (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 15190.10, Feb 8 at 2323, JBA S1-S5 of talk, music? Even so it seems undermodulated. I`m confident it`s R. Inconfidência, Belo Horizonte on its signature off-frequency. That`s a strange name for a radio station if you go by its translations in my Langenscheidt dixionary: ``disloyalty, infidelity, unfaithfulness`` --- perhaps a quite different contextual meaning or historical connotation in General Mines? 11780, Feb 8 at 2322, no signal from RNA, but VG on 6180. Wonder if on the way to installing pure DRM, after successful? low-power but high-gain tests a year ago on 11905 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11880, Feb 8 at 2258, RHC English is back today after AWOL yesterday, S9+20 but deep fades to S6, just concluding item about ballet and De Falla music I wish I had heard; ``Ed Newman`` outro as first of two hours, but second hour will not follow immediately in current scheduling (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9899.606, Feb 7 at 2131 check via UTwente, R. Cairo in S9+40+ of dead air except for some hum; and occasional bursts of extremely distorted Englishy talk. Something`s always egregious in Egypt. 9899.606, Feb 8 at 2119, S9+30/40 of big hum but constant suptorted modulation of music and talk, also UTwente. Ditto (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 8 at 2321, VOT English is on today, S9/+20 direct but undermodulated on the squealing transmitter. Recheck at 2345 on my other radio, better mod level in music but still squealy. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 8 at 0732 UT, OS, 25 watt ND beacon at Ohio State, Columbus; JBA in additional high noise level here; in continued absence of PN Ponca City OK from 515 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2124 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday February 8 at 2330 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 direct, no jamming audible. Next: 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 Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support. Thanks this week to Joe Caberlin, Port Colborne, Ontario for some US$ to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, USA One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 7772-7784 approx., Feb 8 at 2315, WRMI 7780 is battered by clicking OTH radar; WRMI already weak here off the side. Seemingly aimed right against it, or just doesn`t care. 7570, Feb 8 at 2316, this WRMI has very different QRM problem, roaring noise but unlike DRM; nominally aimed NW right at us, WRMI is also much weaker than usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VATICAN [non]. 9580, Feb 8 at 2313, 1 kHz tone. Must be VR prior to 2315-2400 Vietnamese via USAGM PHILIPPINES, violating Separation of Church & State. For those who don`t care, let me explain that the USG is showing extreme favoritism to one particular religion, thus opening itself up to demands from far less savoury gospel huxters for time on our secular transmitters. That it`s an ``exchange`` for SMG airtime is beside the point, an equal violation. BTW, Aoki shows that Taiwan in Korean is also on 9580 at 2300-2330 but not heard even tho its beaming would be more favorable for us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 4095.7, Feb 8 at 0730, upward sweeps are JBA, i.e. the Desert Whooper beacon which intersperses CW IDs as DW. I often hear it like this without relogging. For some reason DW on Feb 6 reposted to HCDX a last August reply to me with background info about it: http://www.hard-core-dx.com/article.php?story=20220206181502578&mode=print (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11689.90 approx., Feb 7 at 2311, S7-S3 open carrier like at 1531, now measured on my other receiver. On the KiwiSDR network, Feb 8 at 0021 I try to locate it by TDOA; measured now by Missouri remote at -74.8 to -74.9 Hz below, i.e. 11689.925. And by Maryland at -74.7 to -75.0, S5. I pick four locations, Brazil, Rio Grande Valley, NE USA and northern Utah: TDOA leads to ``probably`` in the North Atlantic``; delete the Utah one and try again: ``north Pacific``! Obviously useless, no point in quoting the exact imaginary coördinates; then I realize that TDOA may depend on modulation timing, so no good anyway on open carriers. Next day Feb 8 circa 1530 check, no signal circa 11690. Of the known occupants of 11690, the one most likely off-frequency is Madagascar. Now at 2034 February 8, UTwente is getting it on 11689.914 at S7 --- with RTTY. So it`s not a broadcaster but a usually idle RTTY outlet leaving the carrier on. Intruder! Anyway. Still clattering away at 2307. Next step is to search the UDXF iog, on 11689. -- immediately comes up a thread from August *2006* started by me, but mainly about two other frequencies, 7455 and 9960: https://groups.io/g/UDXF/topic/3508999#3014 Search on 11690 gets most of the same, nothing new, disregarding 11690 as a 5-digit cypher group rather than frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0059 UT February 9
