** FRANCE. 11995, Apr 30 at 0606, African language S9/+5. EiBi shows
RFI in Hausa at 0600-0630 via ISSoudun. This has a better signal than
11700 RFI in French which is 250 kW at 200 degrees. 11995 is 250 kW at
170 degrees, neither anywhere near thisaway. IIRC 11995 is a frequency
inherited from Africa Number One, Gabon; remember? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** JAPAN. 15195, Apr 30 at 0609, NHK IS, 0610 `Sakura` theme and
opening Chinese, S3 direct; odd time to start a broadcast, but
Mandarin indeed scheduled at 0610-0630. Many language services last
only 20 minutes now, otherwise Russian, Korean, French, Arabic, Farsi,
Hindi, Urdu, Thai, as in:
https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A25&broadc=NHK
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA NORTH. 15245.24 approx., Apr 30 at 2214, JBA talk, S6/S7 with
flutter, no doubt VOK Spanish as sked this hour. Aoki ignores the fact
that this is perpetually off+frequency, quite a signature, but EiBi
shows 15245.2, also at long hours of 07-09, 13-2350. If you do hear
something on 15245.0 at other times it would be CRI or RFA Taiwan
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1460, Apr 30 at 2225 UT, KZUE El Reno ID as ``La
Tremenda, 1460 AM y 97.7 FM``, and maybe then ``Radio Fórmula`` as in
NRC Log for this ``group``, which shows *two* FM translators on 97.7:
K249FG and K249EN. WTFDA FM Database shows K249EN also in El Reno, 250
watts vertical only, in Spanish; but mixed up about the other, K249FG
in OKC, G.C. slightly south and east of the other one, which is shown
as 250 W H&V, Spanish, yet ``smooth jazz``, ``The City``, which also
applies to KCYI-LP, 42 watts in OKC, but axually from Edmond, ex-97.5.
It seems that two translators and an LP on the same frequency in one
Metro would not be viable. 97.7 is blocked here with a local in Enid.
In English it`s ``Ree-noh``; would have to catch a full ID in Spanish
whether they can say ``Ray-noh``. KZUE itself is a 500-watt daytimer.
And does this R. Fórmula relate to the real Mexican network/brand?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 95.5, Apr 30 circa 2030 UT, rock music sounds mono altho
$ tereo pilot is on; local quality briefly on caradio around Cleveland
and west OK Garriott intersexion. By a mile east at OKG and South Van
Buren, where 1670 Virtual DJ Radio dominates, 95.5 is losing out to
real FM stations in the fringes: KWEN Tulsa, KWEY Clinton or KAHE
Dodge City. Heard same a day or two ago and figured some car`s RF
feeder, but this is apparently more permanent pirate (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715 = 15500 > 15520 > 15390, Wed Apr 30 at 2208, all SNR
frequencies active for token English, all about the blackout/apagón of
Apr 28. In order here by decreasing strength direct (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.007-, Apr 30 at 2209, VOT not off the air, S8/S9
direct already in music after olds. At 2241 into UTwente when
measured, S9+10, ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music; 2245
``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music. 2253 s/off as if it`s the 1230
on 17620, IS to 2254.6*. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2292 monitoring: ``Richard Lemke,

** U S A. 9955, Apr 30 at 0603, WRMI off again instead of TOMBS. Reply
to my obs yesterday: ``WRMI latest schedule, Overcomer overnight
Saturday & Sunday only now. Peter W Hansen``. I think it has been
confusingly labeled like that for a long time, despite really running
9955 all night every night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 9960, April 30 at 0603, R. Vanuatu in presumed Bislama
talk, S6/S9 direct. But soon gone again:

``Hello Ron, it happened 29/04 too, check around 0850 in various
remotes in AUS and NZL. Lúcio, Brasil, 73`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7656.0, April 30 at 0616, open carrier S7/S9 except for
some clix at irregular intervals, maybe about 23 per minute; and clix
audible out to this range: 7643/7666. What is this? Among several
spots doing the same ending in -6. This one also logged March 24, q.v.

** BRAZIL. 11780, UT Tue Apr 29 at 0151, token English from RNB via
RNA, S5/S7 with considerable fading into local? `Brasila` SDR, English
about cycles of rivers and rain in Amazonia; // 6180 is S7/S8 with
some fading but less than 11780. 0153 IDs in English, Portuguese,

no Perú 4810 or any other broadcaster to be uncovered (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15520.000+, S9/+15 and 15389.992, S9+20, April 29 at 1543
into UTwente, REE back on air in Spanish, following massive Iberian
power outage; the other two, 15500 & 17715, don`t start until 1800 on
weekdays. 1844, 15500 & 17715 also on, all four roughly equal into
UTwente, news about Canadian elexion with voiced-over clips in
English. But if it`s Tuesday there must be no English at 2200, altho
all four are still on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004-, Apr 29 at 2207, VOT English not off the air,

** U S A. 9955, Apr 29 at 0620, this WRMI is off, so less TOMBSing.
Not just propagation as 9395 WRMI is S9+5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 9960, April 29 at 0630, RV island music S8/S9, while 9955
WRMI is OFF, tho rarely a problem for RV. Meanwhile, Ron Howard

his postal address] and:
``LU1VZ Argentina flag Argentina, Radio Club Bariloche, Cdte. Luis
Piedrabuena 5560, BARILOCHE (8403), RN, Argentina, For more
information: http://radioclubbariloche.ar``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, Apr 28 at 0242, pirate music at S9 = noise

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, Apr 28 at 1519, still no signal from Rep. of
Yemen Radio; yet Rick Barton, AZ was hearing Arabic Apr 27 at 1430;
sporadic? HFCC shows a res by RAM for something NEW at 1500-1600, 110
degrees, 300 kW from MOLDOVA. RAM = Radio-Agency-M, broker for KCH and
TAC Uzbekistan sites (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715, 15520, 15500, 15390, Apr 28 at 2058, REE completely
off the air, due to huge power failure in Iberia, checked into
Maryland SDR. At 2159 direct, still nothing. John Figliozzi, however,
reports they were still streaming but with a domestic network at 2200
instead of Monday English, however with French at 2230 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 9875.005+, Sun Apr 27 at 2046, VOT English not
off the air, S9+15/25 into UTwente, ending `The Pulse of Turkish
Foreign Policy`, music. 2050 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2053
starting `Letterbox`, hostess Seher Cemre Turan, name provided by Alan
Holder, starts musing about spring, but it`s either rainy or cloudy.
4/23 is some Children`s Day, but dumps off the air at 2054* before she
gets to any mail; and does not return. By 2106 I`m hearing weak
Chinese: that would be VOK in Mandarin from 2100 per EiBi. I`m set to
resume Lbox at 2225 on 11785 but that is also OFF the air again today.
Somethings always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.006+, Apr 28 at 2200, VOT not off the air, better
than usual direct, S9/+10 but still insuff for armchair listening.
S/on as if it`s 1230 on 17620, into olds. At 2238 into UTwente when
measured, mostly music S9+30. By 2243 ``always-by-your-side`` promo,
now S9+40. 2253 s/off still pretending it`s the 1230 on 17620.
Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2254 IS to 2255* (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2292 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
April 27 from 2131 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.002+, S8/S9 into
UTwente, and also on 6160.001-, S9/+5 but with 6164 RTTYditty which
must be avoided by LSB tuning and/or narrowed bandwidth.
Also confirmed Sunday April 27 at 2334 the 2330 on WRMI 9455, S9+18/22
into N9AZZ remote in IL, while 7780 is off, and 7570 is something
else! Into S Texas SDR, 7780 is also off, but 9455 also inaudible!
while 7570 is TOMBS. Sked is totally upmixed, claiming WOR at 2330
Sunday be on 7570 only.
Also confirmed UT Monday April 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+10 into
Georgia SDR.
Also confirmed UT Monday April 28 at 0300 on Area 51 webcast only,
while WBCQ 5130v has switched to music.
Also confirmed Monday April 28 at 1930 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.003,

** U S A. 9930, Apr 28 at 2224, WTWW is S9+50/60 with TOMBS, also some
modulation audible on parasitic spurs 9917.1 & 9942.9, but no splatter
beyond; same huge signal on 9980 WWCR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15770, Apr 28 at 2219, S9+10/20 of dead air, or maybe trace
of mod? WRMI-9 is supposed to be R. Taiwán Internacional on System H (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7780, Apr 28 at 2333 check, WRMI-13 is still off, like it
was yesterday when WOR might have aired. Xmtr skedgrid shows on air
only at 00-04, which could be currently correct. For months it had
been coming up at 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1590, Apr 28 at 0634 Mexmx and ID as ``Ambiente Clásico
Radio``, so it`s WCGO Evanston IL, as heard last September 3 at 0707.
It`s not 100% with this slogan, nor even 100% Spanish; and surely my
unID of Apr 22 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 9960, Apr 28 at 0559, JBA carrier so RV is back on. Ron
Howard replied to my yesterday report of its offness: it seems that
VBTC is notified about outages by him before any one of the 335,169
Vanuatuans!
``Hi Glenn - Here is the reply to my email (received 2144 UT, April
27) and my subsequent log:

- - - - - - My remote log via NZ: April 27, at 2158 UT, heard Radio
Vanuatu on 9960, back on the air again; Whitney Houston singing "Where
Do Broken Hearts Go" and weather report; was in French at 2215. Nice
to have them back again, and am grateful that he always seems able to
fix whatever the problem is in a timely manner. Emailed him back,
confirming reception. Ron, Monterey, Calif.``

lobes, but KFNW has a lesser daytime lobe southward (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1590, Apr 28 at 0622 UT, mention in English of ``630
CJAB`` sounds like. There is no CJAB on 630 or anywhere on MW, maybe
CHED? But no Canadians on 1590. May have been something else
completely, commercial, not callsign. This was just before WCGO log in
Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15070-15093 approx., range of OTH radar rapid clickery,

WORLD OF RADIO 2292 monitoring: ``Thank you for World of Radio -- Hansjörg Biener. 250426 3975 1750 D SWR, E (//6160), Glenn Hauser’s World of Radio 35433 HjBi`` Also confirmed Saturday April 26 at 1730 on SW Radio, Germany, 6160.000, and 3975.001-, both S9+10 into UTwente. Not confirmed Sat Apr 26 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, since nearby remote is offline; checked closest alternatives in IL, IA, and MO between 1900 and 2030 for the 1930v, just high noise, altho with max blanking Carterville IL gets something like talking. Confirmed Saturday April 26 at 1930 on WRN North America webcast. Confirmed NEW time, Saturday April 26 at 2237 the 2230 on WRMI 15770, S3/S5 direct, but listed // 7730 is JBA carrier only. At 2246 into Maryland SDR, 7730 is NOT WOR, but Supreme Master TV. Skedgrid again is self-contradictory: transmitter grid atop shows WRMI-2 on 7730 with SMTV this hour, and WRMI-9 on 15770 with TOMBS! Only the pink System H program grid below shows WOR Sat at 2230 on both those frequencies. Also confirmed UT Sunday April 27 at 0424 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, about 13 minutes into so started circa 0411 almost an hour later than nominal 0315v, S8/S9 into N9AZZ remote in Carterville IL as nearby Warrenton MO is still absent, and Godfrey IL is NG, nothing but noise. Earlier, Houston AMSAT net nom. 0200 did not start until 0302, following `QSO Today`.

WTWW situation from George McClintock circa 22 UT Apr 26: 9930 back on air after some corona goop arrived to apply to insulators which were arcing. Had been absent for two or three days. I check here at 2206, and find 9930 with TOMBS is S9+40/45, but without the splatter we had been getting: maybe that was caused by the arcing. The plus/minus 12.9 kHz spurs are still there but JBA carriers only. He also says the Harris SW100 transmitter has been sold to someone who wants to go on SW, somewhere unspecified, but does not have a CP yet. The live-in operator at the site has now moved in along with his wife. The gate to the property is soon to be upgraded to automatic. Someone else is still consulting on getting the other transmitter back on the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1480, April 27 at 0320 UT, Vietnamese, and also 1560 in Vietnamese, but definitely not //, one OM, other YL, or music. 1480 is KNGO Dallas, U4 50/1.9 kW; 1560 is KGOW Bellaire TX, U4 46/15 kW, both the only two members of the Group, besides a translator, `Viet Radio` as defined by NRC AM Log. Website certainly implies they are //, Houston being primary: http://vietradio.com/ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 9960, Apr 27 at 0545, RV again missing from 9960, nor 7260, 5040, 7890. Ron Howard replies to my previous report: ``Hi Glenn, April 26 also noticed the absence of Radio Vanuatu. April 27, via various remotes, when checking at 0415 UT, on 2485, 3945, 5040, 7260 or 9960, found no Vanuatu signal. Have contacted the station! Ron, Monterey, Calif.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1130, Apr 27 at 0340 UT, tone of about 700 Hz mixing with KLEY/KWKH, rock/stupid sports talk, so a third station? then 0342 drops to 670 Hz or so and disappears. I was hoping for a satellite feed filler ID (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11935.0, Apr 27 at 1455, JBA carrier direct. Could Yemen via Saudi be back? Not checked UTwente until 1538, nothing. Nor anything at this hour in Aoki or EiBi, but HFCC as of Apr 25 has an entry, quite possibly wooden: 11935 1500 1600 40E,41 KCH 300 110 0 156 1234567 300325 251025 D Mul MDA NEW RAM 3824 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING DOONESBURY is back in the Enid News & Eagle Sun Apr 27: apparently CNHI censorship of this is not permanent. This one can hardly be construed as critical of His Magasty; about UFOs. The first two panels are skipped; I`ve noticed this happening with some other strips which seem to be configured so that the first two panels are optional.

** CHILE. 28433.065 approx. USB, Apr 25 at 2210, CE7VP in Chilean
Patagonia, making quick contacts with K2RLA and other US stations.
QRZ.com: ``CE7VP Chile flag Chile, Javier "Javi" Capdebilla A. P.O.
Box : 42, Quellón, Chiloé Island, 5790000, Chile``. Not much activity

** CUBA. 15230, Apr 25 at 1440, S5/S8 of dead air from RHC, where
something`s always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GUATEMALA. 24985 USB, Apr 25 at 2212, TG9AHM calling CQDX. QRZ.com:

** SPAIN. 15520, Fri Apr 25 at 2200, token English from SNR missing
from the ME frequency, but VG S9+20/30 direct on 15500 for us, and
17715 S9+10/20 for S America, whilst 15390 for Africa is JBA. Preview
topic to be about careers for women in tech, a female IT engineer to
be interviewed. 2202 news leads about an ammo contract with an Israeli
company worth 6.6 megaeuro has been terminated since it violated
international regulations, vs genocide in Gaza. Second story: proposal
to reduce working hours per week from 40 to 37.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, Apr 25 at 2157, VOT IS & ID, but inadequate vs local
noise level; slightly better on N/S interior shortwire S9+10/20 than on
E/W loop S9+10. At 2206 already playing music after olds. It has been
reported that VOT policy is NOT to cover news about Turkey! just
anywhere else (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2292 monitoring: confirmed first SW
BC, Friday April 25 at 1300 on WRMI 15770, S5 direct on indoor
randomwire after storms.
Also confirmed Friday April 25 at 2056 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM
Italia, 1322.995+, S8.5 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Friday April 25 at 2057 the 2030 on WRMI webcast.
Also confirmed Friday April 25 at 2218 the 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20
direct but undermodulated JBA.
Also confirmed Friday April 25 at 2242 the 2230 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003, S9/+5 into UTwente.
BTW, SW Radio now has a date-by-date program sked in CEST = UT+2, not
showing WORLD OF RADIO - but we know it`s always the second half of
the hour labeled CQ Serenade.
https://shortwaveradio.de/en/schedule_line_up
Not confirmed UT Sat Apr 26 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, which remains off
the air pending repairs; WTWW-2 stream is running with something
else.
NOT confirmed Sat Apr 26 at 0939 check when I happen to awaken, on
WRMI 9455, despite still shown on WRMI skedgrid. 9455 is OFF the air
at that hour. Initially after hurricane damage, some 9455 programming
was shifted to 7730, but now that frequency is unWOR too, JBA sounds
like TOMBS.
However, looking thru the supposedly updated WRMI skedgrid, I find a
NEW WOR time I was unaware of, Sat 2230 on 15770 & 7730, to be
confirmed!
Also confirmed Saturday April 26 at 1449 the 1430 on SW Radio Germany,
6160.001-, S9+5 into UTwente; and 3975 not on air yet.
Also confirmed Saturday April 26 at 1600 on WRN North America stream.

** U S A. 9930, Apr 25 at 2219 and earlier chex, as well as on Apr 24,
WTWW OFF, and not found on any other frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Apr 25 at 2356 into NH SDR: 3265
off. 5130 S9/+10 already in IS & ID loop. 6160 else. 7490 S9+15/20.
9330 OFF at 2357, briefly presumably for antenna change. W1NT SDR is
still miscalibrated so I don`t try to get exact readings, e.g. it
shows 102 Hz low on WWV 20000, 50 Hz low on 10000 - I see a pattern,
and BTW gets the binary ticking from 9996 RWM.
Anyhow, but 0000 UT Sat Apr 26, 9330 is back on and joined by 7490 &
5130 for WTO and opening of `AAAWWW`. His first overwords are ``OK,
OK, OK, OK -- here we are, folx...`` Trimulcasting as I have observed.
Explains how details of music are not his thing, zones out when people
talk about performers, groups, etc, but does like certain music; not
much jazz, but blues is better. Angela also discusses. By 0009 I hear
``moonbats`` so I know they are into far-right politix, that`s enough.
Later something about Jason wanting to change format on their FM
station. 0020 a song they do like, `Riverboat Fantasy` which includes
some nasty words. 0024 datestamp. 0027 `Star Spangled Banner`
jazzed-up; Jimi? 0047 reading reception reports/email already (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15150, April 25 at 1442, WMLK is S9, but fails to accompany
itself with panoply of spurs at 4 kHz intervals as I heard before out
to 15130/15166, outdone by Wolfgang Bueschel who heard them from 15122
to 15178. Something`s not botched at Bethel (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU [non]. 9960, Apr 26 at 0647, NO signal from RV, so another
schedule shuffle? Not audible either on 7260 or 3945 at 0650, but at
0652, JBA carrier on 7890, where 3945 used to accomplish a second
harmonic, since suppressed, and probably something else now. 9955 WRMI
is also off at 0647 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 869.62, Apr 25 at 0536 UT, carrier hetting 870, vs high
storm noise level on indoor randomwire. Unlike some other mysteries,
suspect this may be of household or neighborhood origin, never heard
before. But to note whether anybody else detect or I hear it again
under other circumstances - such as not heard in the daytime (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
