Thursday, August 28 2025
** BRAZIL. 9664.97, Aug 27 at 0622, R Voz Missionária, S9/+5 music, carrier mushy instead of sharp. Also sounded that way last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 26 at 2157, RNB/RNA gone again, no signal direct. Aug 27 at 2159 it`s on but weaker than usual S9+10/20 and tough copy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 28270+, Aug 27 at 2209, JBA beacon, dash and VVV PY4MAB, barely copied in multiple repeats, as in WGB list: ``28270.5 PY4MAB - Poços de Caldas MG BRA GG68re - #0/1/3 (07 Aug 2025) Note: VVV ID + grid + BCN + 5" carr - Cobra 142 gtl mod. ant vert 10w`` QRZ.com, with a huge photo gallery: ``PY4MAB Brazil flag Brazil, MAURICIO BERALDO, LUIZ ZANGIACOMI 145, POCOS DE CALDAS MG ZIP CODE 37704-274, MG, Brazil --- I have a Radio Beacon on the frequency of 28.270.4 CW, 24 hours a day, vertical antenna, 10 watts of power. In 2025 it will be 15 years since Beacon is on the air. Whoever receives the signals and sends me a confirmation by letter I will respond to everyone and send a special QSL card from my city`` Logged a few times before such as April 21 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** COLOMBIA. 28465 USB, Aug 27 at 2218, Cartagena station making quick contacts in English, says this the last one for now, 10 watts. Only hit at DXheat/cluster: ``HJ4EAB 28 465,0 HJ4V Portable QRP 22:01 27/08/25`` But HJ4EAB is not in Cartagena per QRZ.com: ``HJ4EAB Colombia flag Colombia, EDUARD DARIO OLARTE VASQUEZ, MEDELLÍN, Colombia`` - so how about HJ4V? Yes! HJ4V Colombia flag Colombia, EDUARD DARIO OLARTE VASQUEZ, Medellín 056432, Colombia - During my vacation (August 26–30 2025), I will be operating as HJ4V from the beach in Cartagena Colombia, on the 10m and 40m bands SSB`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 1141 kHz, Aug 27 at 0403, JBA carrier hetting 1140 Spanish, presumably Cuba vs XEMR on N/S antenna, while on E/W antenna English, WRVA? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13780, Aug 26 at 2205, RHC Spanish S9/+10 with good mod; JBA carrier on 15230, trace? of mod? Not on 11760, just China JBA direct with flutter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Aug 27 at 1457, RHC S7/S8 but suptorted, unreadable. Clear but weaker on 13780 JBA S6/S7. And not on 11760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Aug 27 at 2213, RHC suptorted, unreadable not on 13780 or 11760. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO [and non]. Re: "UNIDENTIFIED. 630.1 kHz, Aug 26 at 0703 UT, JBA carrier hetting 630.0 gospel huxter, KYFI St. Louis MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)"
``I had this on several of my Border Inn DXpedition recordings last October, and could only determine that it was a Mexican station (because they played the anthem around 1200 UT). This morning I finally found it again on the Brownsville TX SDR, after several previous failed attempts. It's XEFB Monterrey NL, on about 630.090 kHz, just as in my October 2024 recordings.
They ran a children's choral version of the anthem (1 verse), and one quick "Acústika" liner, then returned to music. They were NOT //XEJP-1150, which was also audible on this SDR at the same time. XEFB's anthem was almost two minutes behind XEJP's (XEJP's finished right about 1200 UT, and XEFB's started slightly after 1200 UT). After XEJP's anthem, they went into the Acústik program "Agronegocios" ("Farm Business?" Seems an odd programming choice for morning drive time in Mexico City). We already knew that both XEFB-630 and XEUNO-1120 (which may currently be silent) were running music instead of the actual Acústik network programming, but it's interesting to learn that they (well, at least XEFB) still bother to refer to themselves as "Acústika."
(It never fails - as soon as we publish the IRCA Mexican Log, something newsworthy happens a day or two later that I wish I could have included in the Log)... On the subject of off-frequency stations on 630, is KHOW also still running high, around 630.019, as they were in all of my October 2024 recordings? 73 Tim Hall``
``Hey Tim! The bane of all list keepers! The day it goes to press is the day it’s out of date! 73 Wayne Heinen N0POH, Editor, NRC AM Radio Log, Aurora, CO``
XEFB is better? known as call of the once widely DXed TV channel 3/2 in Monterrey (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1680, Aug 27 circa 1930 UT, Virtual DJ Radio still running pop music and audible for only a few blox around crossroads of US 81 & US 412 in Enid; self-promotion calls itself a ``radio station``, but no specific ID recaught. Has anyone else, anywhere ever heard VDJR on a real radio transmitter, AM or FM? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** ROMANIA. 9740, Aug 26 at 2209, RRI English at S9/+10; reception improving but still insuff intended for W Europe only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15500 & 15520, Aug 26 at 2159, no signals direct from REE, but audible on 15390 and S9+20/30 on 17715, 2200 accurate timesignal and Emisión Sefarad, still on Tuesdays, but what happens next week/month? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20/30 & VP 15390, Wed Aug 27 at 2200, REE on these but not on 15500 or 15520, timesignal and Spanish, `Españoles en el Exterior`, something about arroz = rice. As expected, no English when it used to air. One week from today, English will supposedly resume at inconvenient hour of 1000 UT on frequency unknown (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.010-, Aug 26 at 2157, no signal direct from VOT; but on by next check 2206, in English; and at 2241 into UTwente when measured, music at S9+35/45; 2246 ``always-by-your-side`` promo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 13635, Aug 27 at 0630, Turkish music, SSOB S7/S9, now the SSOB, scheduled 06-13 250 kW 310 degrees to WEu and thisaway, VOT Turkish. Always audible but improving now, Followed by 17815 same parameters at 13-16, heard about 1503 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004-, Aug 27 at 2158, VOT not off the air, S9/+10 IS and IDs in English. At 2229 into UTwente when measured, S9+40/50, ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2238 ``ABYS` again, music. 2243 TRTVOTVorld.com promo, music. 2251 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2254 s/off as if 17620 at 1230. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2254.5 IS to 2255.4* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2309 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday August 26 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1332.994, S9+5 into UTwente across Europe.
Also confirmed Tuesday August 26 at 2330 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.002+, S9+10/20 into UTwente.
Also confirmed UT Wednesday August 27 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+15/20 into Knoxville SDR; following Blues Radio International, and ``Okeechobee Ocean`` ID - I`ve been craving to hear that entire song, and here it is: https://youtu.be/8uhB9Buxifg https://www.lyricsvault.net/php/artist.php?s=181180
Also confirmed Wednesday August 27 at 1931 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.000+, S9+10/20, by recording and presumably also on 3974.999+, which was S9/+15 by 2005, both into UTwente.
Also confirmed Wednesday August 27 at 2100 on WBCQ, 7490 -70 Hz = 7489.930, S9/+15 following TOMBS chopped off at 2100 for ID, then WOR.
Also confirmed Wednesday August 27 at 2330 on WRMI, 9395, S9+10/20 into Knoxville SDR. Next:
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.
Thanks this week for financial support from Peter Robinson, UK, for a very generous contribution not originally in US funds via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com
One may also contribute via money order or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9905/9955, Aug 27 at 2212, approx. range of modsqueals out of screaming TOMBS on 9930 WTWW where he`s S9+40/50. Similar situation around blasting 9350 WWCR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9330, Aug 26 at 2207, NO signal from WBCQ WLCR; what`s wrong? Even when on to Brasil, no comparison at this angle, to much weaker-rated WWCR transmitter blasting in S9+40/50 on 9350; WINB 9265 even S8/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 660, Aug 27 at 0400, KTNN ID at ToH plus two others, Tohatchi, which must be KTNN-FM 101.5, and KKNS Corrales, which is 1310 in Albuquerque suburb. Not a bigsig, but anysig at night implies not protecting WFAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 252 MCW kHz, Aug 27 at 0357 UT, LW beaconscan hits only one unusual, 252 kHz; trouble is, dxinfocentre.com shows only two possibilities, in SC and NS; and RNA list shows none anywhere. Now wondering if I were really tuned to 251 AM but I think not (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic MWDX conditions are starting to improve. JBA carrier search Aug 27 at 0348-0356 UT, first 9/kHz steps on USB, tuning downward one kHz below channels: 1053, 909, 711. Then tuning up in LSB on 9/kHz steps one kHz above channels: 585?, 684, 711, 855, 882, 999, 1044, 1053, 1089, 1305? Most of those are typical of Spain or UK, except 711 could be Cuba or `Morocco`. No sign of Benin on 1476 or 1566. Better results on my indoor N/S shortwire than on the E/W loop (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1290, Aug 27 at 0404, Spanish YL preaching, seems Catholic, on E/W loop but not on N/S wire. By format SS:REL the only fit in NRC AM Log is KRGE Weslaco TX, Radio Vida, U2 5/5 kW, but in wrong direxion! R. Vida appears ``evangelical`` rather than anything Catholic on website (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1360.29 approx., Aug 27 at 0405 UT, JBA carrier hetting 1360, like previously on 1360.28 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9478.9 LSB, Aug 27 at 0629, intermittent 2-way JBA in unknown language (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Tuesday, August 26 2025
** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 25 at 2158, no signal direct from RNA/RNB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 28153 CW, re my log of beacon VE3IDS/B: ``Hi Glenn, Thanks very much for the report. Yes ten metres has been pretty quiet this summer. I appreciate the reports to know that there are people searching for beacons. RBN is handy but a report from a human is better! I will be happy to snail mail you a QSL card. I have some mail to go to the post office on Monday. 73 Don ve3ids`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA [and non]. 11760, Aug 25 at 2210, JBA signal, presumably CRI Portuguese via Xianyang site, rather than Cubacarrier as in Aug 23 report. About which this reply:
``Hello Glenn, I suspect you had a Cuban carrier with CRI Xian underneath at 2200+ Z yesterday {Aug 23}. The carrier continued throughout the evening yesterday, gone before 0400 sometime {UT Aug 24}. The carrier was back on this afternoon {Aug 25} at 2025 Z check, excellent level, then came to life with excellent quality Radio Rebelde audio at 2103Z, until abrupt plug pull at 2138*. 11760 audio was synchro with a very weak 5025 signal, which suggests that a second "RHC" tx at the Bauta site is now back in operation. 13780 RHC SPA was also on during the 2100+ period, very weak here. CRI came up on 11760 for the usual 2200 POR fill music program at good level with flutter, // 9685. And previously, I've never heard any Cuban CRI relays except through Quivicán, FWIW... 73. -- David E. Crawford, Indian River City, Florida Libre`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) see also CUBA below
** CUBA [and non]. 750, Aug 26 at 0704, whooper audible under WSB; not often, and right now not heard on 870, 1040 or anywhere else. Only Cuban listed in WRTH is R. Progreso, 10 kW, in Palmira, Cienfuegos (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Aug 25 at 2203, RHC S7/S9 but suptorted unreadable; also S9+30 and clear on 13780 in Spanish, seems not // until I compare music breaks vs talk, showing they are a few sex out of sync. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760, Aug 26 at 0633, Spanish S9+30, as RHC frequencies/transmitters are being revived, but at this hour? Suspect it`s R. Rebelde programming and does seem // MW 1620 under QRM, can`t tell about 5025 which remains a JBA carrier. Then at 0634, R. Rebelde ID, and also an old yelled ID presumably dating from its early clandestine era (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760 & 15230, Aug 26 at 1508, JBA carriers presumably RHC, no signal on 13780. And another update from David Crawford, FL:
``11760 was noted this morning, 26 AUG, 1310 Z open carrier, 1320 very faint audio, then up to readable but low modulation by 1325, carrying RHC SPA. 1406 the audio was dialed back down, still open carrier at 1530 recheck, then was gone at 1758 recheck. Excellent signal level and audio quality.
The interesting thing: The 11760 RHC audio was exactly synchro with the known old Quivicán tx on 6000 up to its sign-off at 1400. 13780 had the typical Bauta ~0.7 sec audio delay behind Quiv. Also, as previously reported, the 11760 Rebelde relay the evening prior was synchronized with the "weak 5025" Rebelde tx.
Two conclusions: 11760 appears to be a new or very-well-repaired transmitter at Quivicán, not the historical Bauta 11760. And the low power 5025 Rebelde tx is likewise located at Quivicán.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also CHINA [and non]
** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20 and much weaker 15390, Mon Aug 25 at 2159, these REEs are on while 15500 & 15520 are OFF; still no English at 2200, rather Spanish about Cambuya = Cambodia, what else? Some dispute about whether to spell it Camboya in Spanish. Something`s nonsensical at Noblejas, messedup in Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [non]. 11785+, Aug 25 at 2158, no signal direct from VOT. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler; nor at 2240 into UTwente, when also checked accidentalternate 9875: not there either, only weak off-frequency-minus signal, no doubt Korea North (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Office of Cuba Broadcasting saving Greenville station: From usually reliable sources: "Staff is being called back to Greenville, and reportedly will be put back into normal operation. Greenville is OCB owned now, allegedly because management thought OCB would have its budget cut and have to turn it off and Washington management would not be held responsible." (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2309 monitoring: Correxion: I wrote 9475 instead of 9455 about this, fixed: Confirmed Sunday August 24 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, S7/9+10 into Georgia SDR.
9395, Aug 25 at 2208, this WRMI is back on unlike yesterday. We can only hope it will continue at further scheduled WORLD OF RADIO times.
Confirmed UT Tuesday August 26 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+10/20 into Durango2 SDR.
Confirmed Tuesday August 26 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S4/S6 direct.
Also confirmed Tuesday Auguts 26 at 1425 the 1400 on WRMI 9955. Next:
2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323 and/or 918; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

One may also contribute via money order or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR))
** U S A. 7570, Aug 26 at 0642, this WRMI is on again and as usual much stronger here to the NW than 7730 & 7780 to the NE & SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1270, this may have a bearing on my log of KNWC Aug 20 at 0725: ``Applications for STA and other variance notifications received: 1270 KNWC SD Sioux Falls – Applies for STA, U5 5000/575, night pattern is unstable. (NRC DX News Sept 2, published August 25, 2025)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 630.1 kHz, Aug 26 at 0703 UT, JBA carrier hetting 630.0 gospel huxter, KYFI St. Louis MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Re carrier I had on 1360.28, Martin Foltz replies: ``I hear a big jet [het] on 1360 here in Sarasota FL. Martin`` - Well, no Cubans are listed on 1360; one each in Costa Rica, Guatemala, Mexico. However, excellent new free IRCA Mexican Log shows three CPs on 1360:
https://www.ircaonline.org/editor_upload/File/2025-26_IRCA_Mexican_Log.pdf (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9236.0, Aug 26 at 0635 open carrier with JBA clix roughly once per second, and detectable out to 9220/9246. What is this? Another report:
``3-Second "Click" Signal --- Hi Glenn, I just wanted to tell you that last night I listened for the mystery "clicker" on the 31 meter band. Sure enough, there he was. His signal was quite wide. Far too wide. I was hearing him across a span of greater than 400 KHz. I did notice that the period of the signal varied a bit. Only slightly, but perceivable. Probably not any kind of radar. Take care, my friend. I am a faithful listener to your podcasts. John Lutz, N9JL, EN51vm`` Shorewood IL, Aug 24
``John, Good. Did you note the frequency range, top to bottom, or a `center` frequency of open carrier like I have been getting? Glenn``
``I started listening at 9936 kHz, and (randomly) decided to tune lower in the band. I was still hearing it at 9350 KHz. At 9300 KHz it was no longer audible. Thinking about it, the signal spanned over 600 KHz. Maybe a lot more. I didn't attempt to find the dropout point on the high side, but it was definitely audible above 9,936 KHz. I suppose it could be a radar set. It seems that 30-31 meters is becoming a popular place for OTH radars. 😟
I listened for The Clicker again tonight {UT Aug 25}. No joy. But band conditions seemed considerably better than last night.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Monday, August 25 2025
** OKLAHOMA. 1210 kHz, Aug 25 at 0606 UT, local weather forecast of Monday`s high 101, then KGYN ID, `Red Eye Radio` -- NWS says high of 77! as the heatwave has now broken. KGYN must be airing long-outdated wx info! At least a week old. Don`t you believe KGYN either with far-right nonsense on RER. And of course if I`m hearing it, not on DA pattern protecting WPHT. Somethings goofed-up in Guymon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 92.1, Aug 24 at 2104 UT, ``Oklahoma City`s sports radio, 105.3 FM`` -- but this is a translator of KRMP 1140 as in WTFDA FMDB: K221FQ KRMP-1140 92.1 OKLAHOMA CITY OK 0.099 0.099 0.0 0.0 35-32-58 97-29-49 3E2B OKC'S HEART AND SOUL 92.1 460-1140 No Program Type or Undefined URBAN AC 77231
However, 105.3 is: KINB 105.3 KINGFISHER OK 0.93 0.93 254.0 254.0 35-43-38 97-52-30 2673 KINB CBS SPORTS RADIO 105.3 KINBFM.COM 405-600-9096 SPORTS 88376
Radio-locator confirms both are owned by Perry -- so maybe cross-promotion, but they could have changed inputs.
I was bandscanning for possible sporadic E, maybe Mexico; only other item of note was dead air in mono fading on 91.5, seemingly atop KSNS in Kansas (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2309 monitoring: confirmed Sunday August 24 at 2113 the 2100 on WRMI 15770, S9+5/15 into UTwente where it`s aimed.
Confirmed Sunday August 24 at 2157 the 2130 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.001 S9/+5 and 6160.002- S9+10/15 into UTwente.
NOT confirmed Sun Aug 24 at 2300 on WRMI 9395, as that transmitter is still OFF, altho 9455 & 9955 are on well.
Confirmed Sunday August 24 at 2330 on WRMI 9475, S7/9+10 into Georgia SDR.
Confirmed UT Monday August 25 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+5/22 into S Texas SDR.
NOT confirmed UT Mon Aug 25 circa 0300 on Area 51 webcast only. WBCQ 5130 -84 Hz = 5129.916 signed off at 0300 but webcast continued with something else: Natasha Femkin loves Marion`s Attic, mentions www.recordrama.com? and Magic Radio; 0318 mentions 7.415 MHz so it`s a *very* old show, but webcast music is in $ tereo. 0336 still something else on A51. Another check of webcast at 0416 finds WOR playing now, about 17 minutes into, so must have started an hour late circa 0359. Next:
1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 1400 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323 and/or 918; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

** U S A. 1180, Aug 25 at 0605 UT, sports talk, no doubt KZOT Bellevue NE still cheating (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1010 kHz, Aug 25 at 0602 UT, mentions 95.1, sports talk. No correlations found on NRC AM Log or WTFDA FM DB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1050 kHz, Aug 25 at 0603 UT, mention of phone with AC 605, music. 605 = South Dakota, but no 1050s in SD. Closest would be KLOH Pipestone MN, U4 9380/432 watts, covering part of SD. Dominating now; XEG no longer owns 1050 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1360.28, Aug 25 at 0709 UT, JBA carrier hetting 1360.00. Nothing so far off in mwoffsets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7235, Aug 25 at 0557, mystery JBA carrier still here, slightly stronger than 7260 Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 23 at 2232, RNA/RNB again not off the air, jazz, S9+20/30 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9790, AUg 24 at 0703, S9+30 of open carrier/dead air. Bigsig has got to be transmitter relaying CRI scheduled 0300-0500 only in English, Cantonese, but missing a lot lately. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760, Aug 23 at 2233, RHC #1 legacy frequency finally back on air after long absence -- but with JBM Chinese music! Instrumental only but not Firedrake. RadioCuba didn`t used to relay CRI at this hour. This is so strong, S9+20/30, that it`s got to be Cuba rather than China itself, also scheduled on 11760 this hour in ``Portuguese`` to Europe via Xi`an. At 2257, 11760 goes to dead air but still on air past 2301; while:
13650, Aug 23 at 2259, RadioCuba on with open carrier, 2300 CRI theme, Chinese & Portuguese IDs, for the traditional hour of fill music.
13780, Aug 23 at 2233, RHC in Spanish, S9+20 with good modulation, running about 2 seconds behind // 15230 which is S9+10/20 and suptorted. 15230 is off by 2259: maybe moved to 13650 but not with same defect. Anyhow it appears RHC is now capable of running 3 transmitters at once!
All those as monitored direct; into Georgia SDR at 2313, 11760 deadair, 13650 CC music, 13780 SS & music, 15230 off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1390, Aug 24 at 0312, KCRC Enid dead air pinning the needle S9+70? still dead past 0455+. I`ve left a radio on with volume up to hear if and when it resume. Which it does, finally, blasting on at 0500 sharp. Substation 1640 KZLS was also DA only S9+45 atop CCI. But by 0639 next check, 1390 & 1640 are deadair again, and *0700 they blast back on with baseball info; 1640 as usual is about 2 seconds behind 1390 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15500, Sat Aug 23 at 2248, REE to NAm is still OFF, but the other three are on in Spanish about Panamá: 17715 S9+20/30 > 15520 > 15390 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785+, Aug 23 at 2232, VOT not off the air and furthermore in correct language, English, S9+20/30, best signal direct in a while. At 2250 music has increased to S9+30/40. 2252 s/off as if it`s 17620 at 1230, awry at Ankara, and IS to 2253.7* chop (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9750.008-, Sun Aug 24 at 1900, S9+40/50 into UTwente, VOT English with `Letterbox`.
