** SPAIN. 17855, Monday May 8 at 2200, token English from SNR is VG
into Maryland SDR; sufficient on 17715 for SAm; and even on 11670 for
Africa but with squeal - but NO signal on fourth frequency 15520 for
ME, nor at UTwente. Something`s not right at Noblejas. But not much
else on SW from Europe a sesquihour after an M-class flare as Gary
Pence points out. Of course from Europe`s SW corner, Spain enjoys best
advantage of the lowest-latitude and closest path to NAm; since
Portugal gave up SW years ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, May 8 at 2158, no signal yet from VOT English even
unto UTwente SDR. Cuts on at *2201 but off again in a few seconds
before I can even note the offset a few Hz on the plus side; and never
returns next 30+ minutes. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2189 monitoring: confirmed Sunday May 7
at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, still not 909 or 207 kHz,
S9+10/15 into nearby Noale SDR; with storm crashes from northern Italy
and Serbo-Croatia. Also slight CCI from understation.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 8 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+10 but noisy
into Louisiana SDR, starting with usual 14-second external noise
blaster.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 8 at 0300 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 -67 Hz =
6159.933, S9/+15 into Maryland SDR. Next:

** U S A. 9330, May 8 at 2314, menacing music from WLCR on WBCQ-6 and
into Brasuguese talk, VG S9+20/30 as if on wrong beam thisaway;
normally is perceptibly weakened when in Portuguese correctly
southward at 175 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9975, UT Monday May 8 at 0010, AWR Wavescan, later Jeff
White interviewing John[o] Wright of ARDXC during recent visit to NSW;
S8/9+5 but noisy into Louisiana SDR. At 0145 recheck it`s S9+20/30
direct, more like it. KVOH had been AWOL for some time but back this
weekend as reported earlier to WOR iog:

``I can hear something on 9975 kHz at the moment, just ID'd as "Voice
of Hope" at 0406 UTC May 6. Ricky Leong, Calgary, Alberta, Canada``

``Super strong into Masset, BC at 0421. Left the air at 0500. For the
last 15 or 20 minutes, reception became fluttery; auroras are back!

** U S A. Further update from George McClintock, WTWW, captions with
multi-MB close-up photos:

``Subject: WTWW: all 48 power modules repaired --- This is the bad
part on this control card, a voltage requlator.

All 48 of 48 power modules have been repaired and returned to the
stacks. They are the power modules that $ 100,000 dollars was
squandered by the GOOD OLD BOYS and NO repair took place. Since I have
repaired what the good old boys did not repair, I want the 100,000
dollars they got for no work, at all, on transmitter # 1. Just
kidding.

These are the only 2 burned control cards that I have. They are in the
process of being repaired. I am still waiting on Continental for any
control cards that may be lying around. I am short 5 and are sure that
the good old boys know where they are but are keeping quiet. George
McClintock 5-7-2023`` (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Still a big tropo blob around here on APRS map, May 8 at
0412, BAD signals on RF: 8, 10, 11, 15, 21, 22, 26, 30, 31, 34, 36. 15
degraded to bad means DX QRM to KTBO OKC. Only DX decoding are: RF 20
KQCW-HD 19-1 Tulsa; RF 28, ION 44-1, i.e. KTPX-TV Okmulgee = Tulsa
market.

At 0431 May 8: RF 36, TBN HD 17-1, i.e. KDOR Bartlesville = Tulsa
market; RF 26 KOTV 6-1 Tulsa; RF 20 KQCW Muskogee = Tulsa mkt, 19-1
still with VG signal; and these BADs: 8, 10, 11, 12, probably also
Tulsa.

Circa 1545 UT May 8, again a tropo blob over eastern OK with Enid on
the edge; but only DX signal is BAD RF 28, no doubt ION 44-1 again

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Saturday May 6 at 2255, LRA36 with
S6/S8 good signal into Argentine remote, studio discussion, saluting
birthdays of certain military personnel; 2318 music, weaker with 15480
ACI; next check 2327, is off. Nominal sked is now 20-23 UT Saturdays
only. Manuel Méndez, Spain had reported earlier: ``LRA 36 on air ---
Speakers today, male Juan Benavente "Uniendo Voces" and female Noemí
Cisneros "Ecos de la Antártida", transmission cut off abruptly at 2023
and returns at 2027`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15800, May 7 at 1457, YL song, S9/+10 with flutter, // 15760
and much weaker 15340 & 15110, 1459 Chinese announcement. All check as
CNR1 jammers in Aoki. Not much else on 19m band except Cuba, making
15800 the SSOB! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 13550, May 7 at 1505, JBA carrier, CNR1 jammer against Sound
of Hope (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 5910- & 6010-, May 7 0638, both Puerto Lleras stations
are off. Until now 5910 Alcaraván Radio had been reliable; and last
night I thought 6010 LV de tu Conciencia may have resumed (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 15140, Sunday May 7 at 0644, JBA carrier = just
barely audible: suspect RHC which is supposed to be here in daytime
only, but this has happened before. After searching all lower bands
with no RHCs found. This remainder may stay on past 0700 when weekly
Esperanto is supposed to air on 6100 only - and 12200 of course.
Nothing else sked on 15140 now. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Also,
15140 is the SSOB = strongest signal on band, but not the OSOB = only
signal on band, as 15770 WRMI is also detectable, even weaker JJBBA
carrier, in degraded propagation. WRMI must think it`s going somewhere
by running 15770 all-night; as the more appropriate 7730 remains
silent for lack of antenna. Skedgrid shows 7730 as both transmitters 1
and 2, 24 hours of blank on 160 and 44 degree azimuths (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, May 7 at 1501, RHC weaker than // 15140 opening
Sunday-only Esperanto, and still on at 1506 tho supposed to be off. //
11760 is VG much stronger. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17480 & slightly stronger 17470, May 7 at 1502,
only JBA carriers below 17500, presumably Dengê Welat and Recep the
Turkish jammer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. That tropo blob is *still* there over mid-America when I
next check for TVDX, UT Sun May 7 at 0231: BAD signals on RF 9, 10,
11, 17, 18, 26: notably, 17 and 18 are bad because of DX against Enid
and OKC stations. 26 briefly decodes as KOTV 6-1 Tulsa, along with
KQCW on 6-2, and NewsOn6 on 6-3 - at this time also on KQCW, couldn`t
tell if identical and synched (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Some OK FM logs are mixed in with non-OK FMDX in this
report under USA, q.v. for 104.5 KZZW; 106.9 KHTT; 104.9 KKWD; 104.9
KEUC; 105.3 KINB (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, May 6 at 2200, VOT is not off the air today,
timesignal and English VG via UTwente SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2189 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 6 at 2230 on WRMIs: 15770, S9/+5 into Missouri SDR despite off the
side; 5850 S7/S9 with nearby storm crashes.

Also confirmed UT Sunday May 7 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/S9 including
heavy storm crashes into Missouri SDR; less noisy S9+5/12 into
Louisiana SDR. And *still* with external noise blast during first 14
seconds, then another mini-blast; and three more quick ones after
0037: I think this always happens by that spoiler ute.

Also confirmed starting late at 0357 UT Sunday May 7, the nominal 0315
in WA0RCR, 1860 AM, S9+10/20 including very heavy storm noise level =
HSNL. Next:

** U S A. After two days of tropo TVDX within huge blob extending from
Monterrey to Des Moines, I switch to FM DXing via my best option,
stock Nissan caradio in the cool garage on our first 90-degree day
this year; with fender-mounted vertical antenna only.

This is my first serious car FM DX session this year, and maybe since
last summer, so there may have been some changes to the ``local`` dial
too. Info from the great WTFDA FM Database. Numbers before the geo
coordinates are kW ERP and antenna height above average terrain in
meters - H&V all the same in today`s logs so deleted the duplications.
Distances in km/stmi are approx., city-to-city of license, computed by
distancefromto.net.

100.3, May 6 at 1653 UT, adstring including Staples, ``KJKK-FM
Dallas-Fort Worth`` ID. This stays in for quite a while, yet several
other open Metroplex channels are unoccupied - or maybe too occupied
resulting in hash. By 1747 this is gone but a few words from somewhere
burst in via a meteor.
KJKK 100.3 DALLAS TX HD ADULT HITS 100.3 JACK FM 97.0 574.2 32-35-02
96-57-48 28D2 JACK~ FM - Song/Title Song/Artist Adult Hits - 414
km/257 stmi

96.7, May 6 at 1655 UT, mentions something sponsored by WBAP & WFAA -
as if they were still related; 972 AC for Best Buy windows. 1711, ad
for Triple-C Roofing in DFW. I don`t perceive it as ``all-sports`` but
therefore must be:
KTCK-FM 96.7 FLOWER MOUND TX SPORTS SPORTS RADIO 1310 & 96.7, THE
TICKET 90.0 621.0 33-26-13 97-29-05 426A All sports all the time
KTCK The Ticket - All Sports all the time - KTCK The Ticket - Sports
//KTCK 1310 - 381/236

104.5, May 6 at 1702 UT, ``Weekend Top 20 Countdown`` but of Christian
songs only, no ID; ad for Metashare? 844-74-BIBLE; vacation rentals in
Florida; finally multi-station IDs including KJIL and KHYM. I figured
this would be the newish station near Woodward, but last I heard, it
had not been acquired by the SW KS-based gospel huxter network:
KZZW relays:KJIL 99.1 104.5 MOORELAND OK CONTEMPORARY
CHRISTIAN/RELIGIOUS TEACHING YOU'RE WITH FAMILY 62.0 365.0 36-16-23
99-26-45 54A4 KZZW - 119/74

106.9, May 6 at 1705 UT, rap in unknown language, not English or
Spanish; but 1707 quick English non-ID as ``K-Hits``, So:
KHTT 106.9 MUSKOGEE OK HD CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO K-HITS 106.9 74.5
388.0 35-53-00 95-46-14 247D K-HIT 106.9 K-Hits Tulsa's #1 Hit Music
Station Top 40 - 237/147

104.9, May 6 at 1714 UT, Midwest City OK ad from KKWD alternately
fading with South Asian YL mixing language in with accented English;
even a bit of play-by-play cricket! 1735 mentions Punjabi and Urdu, ad
with (972) AC; 1736 S Asian song. I try searching WTFDA DB first on
languages, but there is a drop-down menu of only certain ones, no
Urdu. Punjabi, Indian and Pakistani do not get any 104.9 hits
anywhere. I know it has to be DFW TX market, so geographically I soon
find this entry not citing any specific languages:
KZMP-FM 104.9 PILOT POINT TX HD ETHNIC FUNASIA 35.0 535.0 33-33-37
96-57-34 534B KZMP-FM 104.9 Pilot Point, Dallas, Fort Worth
WWW.FUNASIA.COM - 344/214

I never heard Funasia mentioned: this one in Dallas proper could be
problematic if it really exist:
K285HJ relays:KLNO-HD3 104.9 DALLAS TX VARIETY YOUR CHOICE RADIO 0.099
0.0 32-35-25 96-58-24

And details of the OKC station it`s duking it out with back & forth:
KKWD 104.9 BETHANY OK VARIETY HITS ALICE 104.9 6.0 100.0 35-29-53
97-37-10 2CA7 Artist/Title HD is Off - 101/63

BTW, I still haven`t heard the alleged EWTN station in Ringwood just
west of Enid, KEUC, 100 watts, 21 meters on 104.9. I should be getting
it easily like the 99 watts from Kingfisher below on 105.3. 33 km/20
stmi

107.5, May 6 at 1719 UT, ad in Spanish. No Okies, but three in TX:
discounting San Angelo and Rio Grande City, that leaves in the PTA:
KMVK 107.5 FORT WORTH TX HD Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA GRANDE 107.5
16.5 574.2 32-35-02 96-57-48 31DC - 408/254

105.3, May 6 at 1737 UT, YL sports talk, ``CBS Sports Radio`` ID, huge
adstring, none local, including Rangers.com, Navy Federal Credit
Union. It`s merely a near-local from a town where they assault HSFB
players leading to a mega$ lawsuit; and I don`t think it was CBSSR the
last time I noticed:
KINB 105.3 KINGFISHER OK SPORTS CBS SPORTS RADIO 105.3 0.93 254.0

town itself -- ?? (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** U S A. More TVDX chex tnx to persistent tropo blob over
mid-America, May 7 at 1517 UT: BAD signals on RF 28, 11, 9 and 6. Yes,
6, despite my antenna for highband 7+ and UHF only and aimed SSE.
Prime suspect is always closest full power on 6, KBSD, Ensign/Dodge
City KS with 31 kW ERP, 244 km/152 stmi. Beyond that: KWNB-TV Hayes
Center NE, 11.9 kW, CP for 45, 538 km/334 stmi. There are zero OKies
on 6 of any power. Lots in TX but all low-power or translators. All
per FCC TV Query. Next check at 1636: only 20, 11 and 10 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
