** BRAZIL. 11815.032, Aug 31 at 0615, music at S2-S4, presumed R.
Brasil Central typically askew as in Brasil private SWBCs are required
to run significantly off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Aug 31 at 0608, humbuzz atop undermodulated English..
Something`s always wrong at shameless RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 7157 & 7215, Aug 31 at 0609, wall-of-noise Cuban jamming
which they keep running against nothing on these particular 40m ham
frequencies and no others, why? Nor is there any conceivable
broadcaster attracting jamming anytime on 7215. Unlike previously,
however, there is no jamming against vacant OCB frequencies above
7300; but there is on 9565, where Radio Martí quits at 2400*.
Something`s always wrong at the DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Tuesday Aug 1 at 1525, Kashmir Civitas in
Urdu talk but some English words: ``red light area`` and 1527 again
mentions ``red light`` twice. Wonder what that`s about? Also mentioned
``Jammu & Kashmir``. Chopped off at 1529* still talking, no postlude
of IRRS songs in English this week. Programmers don`t seem to
appreciate necessity for accurate timing. Last Tuesday I missed
checking this weekly 1500 broadcast via ROMANIA after having heard it
every week since it started. This week reception via UTwente is much
worse than usual; instead of loud & clear solid, it`s S7-S8 and
``hollow`` sounding. K-index now only 1, but G1 minor storms predicted
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6880-USB, UT Tue Aug 31 at 0148, only pirate
activity is here, S9/+10 with classical music, believe it or not! 0151
ID as Mix Radio International, more classical. I keep listening in
astonishment, as most pirates avoid classical like the plague. But MRI
after all is ``mixed`` and have broadcast various genres before. Let
us say these are ``popular classics``, war horses of tuneful
recognizability. At 0258 going from ``Deutschland ueber Alles`` to the
VVV opening of Beethoven`s Fifth.

At 0205 I switch from own rx to remote in Maryland which is getting it
equally well at S9/+10; 0206 another ID but music unseems named.
I suspect there be some repetition before it`s all over, but haven`t
kept track of individual pieces. No announcements at all heard in
final hour to sesquihour, abruptly off at end of final piece at
0340*.

Many other reports here starting at 2214 August 30, all classical:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85786.0.html
I am pleased to see positive comments from other listeners, perhaps
encouraging more of this from MRI or others. Some comment on the
wideband audio, but on the KiwiSDR I find plenty of highs, sorely
lacking in bass response if not bass transmission; rather tinny; no
equalizer? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 14322.5-USB, Aug 31 at 1907, JBA ``International Bible Study
Net`` announcing this frequency, later CQs, apparently trouble
rounding up students. Can`t copy the NCS call, never foneticized. I`ll
bet only welcomed are those accepting as a given that it`s the
Undisputed Holy Word of the Christian God; which version? No real
challenging (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 15610, Aug 31 at 1903, no signal from WEWN
English, scheduled to start at *1900; nor yesterday, I think, nor
night frequency 9385. Now neighbor 15825 WWCR at similar megameter
distance achieves S8-S9, and 15770 WRMI too.

12050, Aug 31 at 1957, at first hear non-Spanish, must be Ndarason in
Kanuri via Woofferton at 19-21, then CCI WEWN Spanish making >1 Hz
SAH; WEWN Spanish night frequency 5970 has been reliable. Some weeks
ago, WEWN tried 12040 instead, but back to 12050 since KSDA is already
on 12040 for one semihour at 2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 870, Aug 31 at 0119 UT, WWL New Orleans with storm
coverage vs the Cuban whooper. I think WWL is running lowered power,
as it`s incomparable e.g. to neighbors on 860 & 880. This makes sense
since they must be relying on generator. 10 or even 5 kW should be
enough to cover the disaster area; and who cares about skywave?

Website is certainly current in more ways than one, hosted somewhere
with electrical fluid. I can`t find anything about technical issues,
nor even a list of all the FMs allegedly carrying WWL at least on HD2.
But they do plug ``WWL HD2`` which you can hear online; who cares
about OTA FM? As if it were separately programed, but totally unclear
about that. During the emergency, likely a single stream on all
possible outlets. Not to be confused with Audacity, sounds like
``odyssey``:

https://www.audacy.com/wwl

As for the QubaRM, IIRC, WWL was among many major US MW stations that
the USG took over for VOA Spanish during the 1962 Missile Crisis; so
maybe the Commies have not forgotten certain frequencies worth
jamming, just in case!

and Terry L Krueger, Niceville FL panhandle has just reported in GMT:

``870 LOUISIANA WWL New Orleans 0826 8/29/21. Excellent live and local
coverage with Hurricane Ida coverage, but sadly, terrible interference
from co-channel Radio Reloj, Cuba with exceptionally terrible voltage
wobbling noise and -- even more sinful -- WPWT, Colonial Heights, TN
(C&W "96-3 The Possum"), a D1 that constantly runs 10,000 watts
overnights. Recheck pre-sunrise on 8/30, WWL is much weaker. Still
audible daytime though poor in local noise. The only other New
Orleans-proper licensed station audible is 1280 kc/s WODT, which on
8/29 was blindly running Black Information Network feed, but on 8/30
at least was airing local coverage under the BIN branding. KLEB Golden
Meadow 1600 kc/s (in the bullseye of Hurricane Irma) was noted
pre-sunrise 8/29 but with the usual Blues/Cajun music. So far, I
haven't traced their signal since but inconclusive`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2128 UT August 31

** CANADA. 15034-USB, Aug 30 at 1447, no signal from CHR Trenton
Military VOLMET; nor on numerous other random daytime chex, tho still
active on 6754-USB night channel. Propagation has been pitiful, but
now I *am* getting 14670-RCUSB, CHU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13700, Aug 30 at 1445, S6/S9 dead air from RHC; meanwhile,
modulating to various degrees on 15230, 15140, 11760, 9710, 9535, and
by 1450 also resumed on 13700. Meanwhile, no spurblobs out of that
now, nor for quite a while, last caught on July 8 at +/- 62 kHz, etc.;
surely they will eventually erupt again. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CZECHIA [non]. 15770, Sunday August 29 at 2135, very nice classical
music on harp -- could this WRMI be an Encore encore? S9+20 better
than usual here off the side. No, it`s R. Prague in French. Seems both
the English and French services play classical on Sundays, this one
concluding with giveaway `Moldau` at 2157 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ITALY [non]. 7290, Mon Aug 30 at 1745, I`m checking whether IRRS
still be on air from 1800, as it was missing on Sat Aug 28 when WOR
should have aired. Via UTwente, at first I hear Russian, which is Iran
scheduled until 1750. Also the constant RTTY warble on plus side only.
1748 another carrier on? Iran soon disappears but no formal closing
heard; uncovers even weaker CNR China. *1755 stronger OC with hum,
S9+25 in Synch mode, presumed BULGARIA; a few seconds before 1800, no
Aïda theme at all but quick IRRS sign-on with phone number, falsely
claiming to be in reduced-carrier USB; and right into a gospel huxter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Aug 30 at 2157, this REE frequency for S America is
still AWOL. The other three continue past 2200 joining for English, VG
17855, 15520, 11670 in decreasing order via Maryland SDR. Justin Coe
does news first about Spain`s de-involvement in Afghanistan; to be
followed by folk musician Eliseo Parra. The music finally starts at
2215 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 30 at 2200, VOT English is not off the air today!
VG into Maryland SDR. But I`m listening to Spain until its English be
over at 2230; more than second half of VOT hours are mostly good
Turkish music fill, with interruptions such as the 2-minute
multilingual ID reel --- which could be a learning experience if they
would label each one in English. It`s hard for us to differentiate the
various Turkic languages. 2346 already signing off English with
convoluted English schedule, then IS keeps on and on until 2256 starts
interspersing German IDs. 2259 quick break in transmission probably
when the sleepyrator thinx they are turning it off, but right back on,
2300 timesignal and opening spurious German hour, not with news but
historical talk about Atatürk, who was too secular for Erdogan; and
other features, still on past 2320 with web address, much more music;
2325 another talk, briefly about Olympix, 2327 ID like in English
``VOT with you everywhere``, song starts until finally abrupt chopoff
at 2329*! Something`s always erroneous at Emirler; extra German
probably had more listener in Oklahoma than at 1-1:30 am in Zentral
Europa (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565-CW, Aug 30 at 1444, K6FRC ID over and over from 1.8
milliwatt HIFER beacon in Patterson CA. Check for it almost every day
in bandscan, only heard around this time, and last logged July 30
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
August 29 at 2000 on IRRS Shortwave via AM Italia, 918 kHz, VG S9+33
into nearby Noale SDR. So this is still funxioning if SW 7290 is not,
Saturdays at 1800. See also ITALY [non].

Missed checking Sunday Aug 29 at 2230 on WRMIs 9955 and new 7780: did
anyone hear them?!

Also confirmed UT Monday Aug 30 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG S9+20/30.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 30 at 0130 on WRN webcast to North America.

Confirmed replaced by something else Mon Aug 30 at 0230 on WRMIs 7780
& 5800.

NOT confirmed on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, UT Mon Aug 30 at 0300, as
that WBCQ is OFF the air. I believe I had noticed it on air an hour or
two before. 4790 is also off now but the other BCQs remain on: 3265,
7490 and 9330. No lightning around Monticello now. WOR is running on
Area 51 webcast, checked 0317 at midpoint. And by 0351, 6160 is back
on with HRI, and 4790 with BS. At 0412, 6160 is still playing A51
music as on webcast. Would have been nice if WOR could have run then
instead. Last week`s WOR on 6160 was also curtailed. Next:

** U S A. As Hurricane Ida hits New Orleans and knocks out all power,
about time to check whether 7505 WRNO can be on the air from *0100;
it`s anyway erratic without storms. 0120 next check: WRNO is absent,
surprise2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 870, Aug 30 0042-0050+ UT, no signal from WWL New
Orleans. CNN has also just reported that the entire city is without
power - but you`d think this vital station would have backup
generators, contingency plans. A rare chance to DX something else on
870? But 0122 next check: WWL is back on with callers, serenaded by
the Cuban whooper. Later ToH legal ID includes a bunch of HD2s on FM
stations; wish I could copy all. So AM 870 is RRRR = really rather
redundant radio? Still WWL 870 is the place for NOLA news in the
aftermath if you can get it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1040, another anomaly at 0040-0044+ UT Aug 30, strongest
signal on 1040 is dead air, looping from the direxion of WHO Des
Moines. 0122 next check: 1040 WHO is remodulating with talk show
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, August 30 at 0531,
early enough that not everything has faded out yet: 621, 711, 747(2),
774-, 846=Kiritimati?, 882, 1107, 1125, 1503(2).

1503 is especially intriguing: WRTH shows two low-power RNE5 Spain of
2 and 5 kW; beyond that, 25 kW inactive Egyptian on the dayside; not
to mention 1 kWs Bosnia and UK. Maybe not too early for 2.5/5 kW
NZers? (2) means at least two carriers beating.

Notable for its absence now and for some months is a carrier on 936
kHz, which would hold up later than most of Europe and was assumed to
be the 200 kW in Agadir, Morocco. I last logged it Jan 24 & 27, and
Carlos Gonçalves, Portugal reported on May 31, ``711 and 936 outlets
off the air``. In MW Circle, Aug 30, John Hoad in Canary Islands,
says, ``more recently Morocco 936 kHz has gone. 73 John, Playa Blanca
Lanzarote``. Jorge Garzón Gutiérrez "IberiaDX", 39698 Santiurde de
Toranzo (ESPAÑA - SPAIN), replies, ``Hi John, I have 936 al-Amazighia
(MRC) last record on May 2021. Did you listen to later than this?
Maybe is not active since then? ¡Gracias!``. Furthermore, I am not
hearing once-reliable Algerians on 531, 891 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6910-USB, Aug 29 at 2330, JBA contact sounds like MARS
or some mily/govt net, NCS503 calling NN6GT, not sure of second call`s

beepery, perhaps SSTV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

latter is certainly active too with Ida advisories, as heard via
Knoxville SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12788, 8502, 4316, Aug 28 at 2145, attempts to monitor USCG
New Orleans, NMG as scheduled per EiBi at 2130-2145: nothing.

4318 approx., Aug 29 at 0630, fax at S9+10/20, NMG scheduled
0600-0855.

12788-USB, Aug 29 at 1749, S3-S5 into Knoxville SDR, with fadeouts,
marine weather about tropical storms in Atlantic, waves starting off W
Africa. Obs mostly longitude 50 or less, nothing to do with Hurricane
Ida. NMG N.O. sked at 1715-1750. 1752 robotic voice with Norfolk
address, originating there? 1753 finally mentions Ida landfall
briefly, on to Juliet; ``This is US Coast Guard Communications
Command, out out`` and off 1755.5* = 5.5 minutes later than sked. No
individual station ID. Recheck at 1823, fax beepery approx. 12790 as
sked 1800-2105 for NMG. Nothing ever audible on 8502 or 4316 and
suspect not really on air in daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 870, Aug 29 at 0638 UT, WWL New Orleans apparently
live with calls about Hurricane Ida; Cuban whoop-whoop QRM comes and
goes, usually JBA underneath but some surges. Of course, WWL is easily
the dominant signal here, scarcely one megameter away. It will be
interesting to hear whether it be knocked off the air, not to mention
WRNO 7505, which is anyway erratic; check at 0100-0400.

Many listeners afar have complained about whooping: apparently a very
much-out-of-order Cuban transmitter rather than deliberate jamming,
and similars have shown up on other frequencies. WRTH 2021 has three R
Relojes on 870, 10 kW each at Bueycito, Granma, and Baracoa-Van Van,
Guantánamo; 1 kW at Sancti-Spíritus, S.S. The first two are in eastern
Cuba while S.S. is in central Cuba, more likely to be the whooper
except it`s lowest-powered. IF this info be correct, current.

Terry Krueger`s Cubalist has not been updated in exactly 5 years; back
then, it showed on 870 one Reloj in S.S.; the Baracoa Reloj on 860
instead; R. Progreso also on 870 in S.S. per WRTH 1997; and a Progreso
in Pilón, Granma. DXers closer to north of Cuba ought to be able to
get DF bearing on the whooper, from which part of the Great Antille?

into nearby Noale SDR. As usual, playing `Aïda` march theme from

UTwente, NO IRRS SIGNAL from Bulgaria at start nor past 1830, just
that weak Chinese before 1800, its ToH timesignal, and a few more
minutes, vs RTTY warbling on the plus side. I let 7290 run the entire

** U S A. 12160, Sat Aug 28 at 1728, the last minutes of scratchy
lo-fi ancient record or cylinder music, no closing announcement, just
quick WWCR ID and intro a Nashville gospel huxter. `The Talking
Machine Show`, misnamed as most of the old recordings are music, not
talk! scheduled 1700 UT Saturdays. I search the latest, Aug 1, WWCR
skedgrids and do not find *any* other time for it now! Used to fill
several slots, and I do mean fill, subject to time being sold off.
Perhaps the only WWCR program worth listening to, certainly the only
one itself produces, i.e. by engineer Phil Patton. 12160 at midday
here one megameter away usually provides a VG signal, like today
S9+10/20.

There also used to be another similar show but can`t remember the name
and don`t see any sign of it on sked either, tsk2. O, maybe this be

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 7780 // 5800, UT Sat Aug 28 at 0200, WRMIs with
another TRSW relay of a European low power, this one licensed on 6020,
Radio Delta International. Publicity continues to overlook 7780. Both
are S9+10/20 here but not unnoisy. Starts with a bit of YROT theme,
Second Mate Susan ID, Cap`n Ric introducing RDI. Starts with RDI`s
very own theme song with Dutch lyrix including kilohertz. 0204
greeting from Andy in Switzerland, and someone else, presumably
listeners rather than Deltans. 0213 QSL address as
radiodelta@icloud.com --- then I realise I am missing the Wiener
Philharmoniker Summer Night Concert, on PBS! Over to OETA on RF 13
for my attention, undivided except for stereo to one ear each. I`ll
have to catch the repeat 3 hours later for the first part. Great
music, and scenery, but still hard to spot the token females in the
orchestra (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960-AM, UT Sat Aug 28 at 0118, S8-S9 of pirate rock
music; 0123 Ball Smacker Radio YL offers eQSLs, tenpins collision. Yet
another regularly scheduled Friday night broadcast for convenience of
the FCC, week after many weeks. Also JBA carrier on 6974.9 presumed
Nowhere Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Fri Aug 27 at 2355 checking all WBCQs via Maryland remote:
3265 is on and poorly audible with gospel huxter, seems // 7490. 4790
with TOMBS. 6160 with Area 51, Amos `n` Andy? 9330 with WLCR. Then I
axually listen to `AAAWWW` on 7490 webcast, where already at 2359,
Allan does not realize his mike is open as he exclaims about some tone
we`re hearing, as FKB gospel huxter is wrapping, and as they are
setting up for the live show to follow. As soon as that`s underway, UT
Sat Aug 28 at 0000 with WTO theme I recheck all the lower 4 SW
frequencies and indeed they have united.

Cold wave has hit Maine, from 88 F yesterday, it`s 58 today.
Complaining about all broadcasting on the way out, everything to The
Cloud; complaining about ``gendering``, people objecting to being
classified as male or female. Angela reminds us that she is convinced
Trump is really still president. WBCQ has enemies who don`t like WLCR
or TOMBS, but they ``will be crushed``.

0026 says new tube is in -- or rather, on the way; hope to get the
SuperStition back on at full 500 kW ``within days``. 0028 call from
Annoying Freddie in Massachusetts, about drinking on the air. It seems
Angela has a small? bottle of wine, and they attempt a toast over the
phone. Quadricasting tonight. The SS transmitter is a Continental
420D, right? What about the warranty on the tube? he asks. But C`l do
not make that component. Allan says they are ``working on it``, the
warranty issue. How much does it cost, $ 100K? Much more than that,
like for a house. $ 200K? Even more than that, but will not say how
much now.

Datestamp: 27th of August, YOOLF 2021. 0035 caller from Durango,
Colorado with reception report, 7490 poor but best as to be expected.
0037 call from Jason in Nova Scotia, implying he will visit in person?
Someone sent quotation from Thomas Paine, about ``trying men`s souls``
and how that may apply to current events. TANSTAAFL. 0045 Jason calls
back to greet Angela after she complained about being ignored.

``We have enemies who don`t like Worlds Last Chance or Brother Stair
--- very sick and deranged people``. He seems to think they are behind
the FCC/WHRI SNAFU. 0048 Tim in Connecticut thankfully briefly, and as
someone pointed out always happens, the stream craps out at 0053. I
get it started again. 0055 to read email, nothing significant. 0059
prayer, that the Lord must have a great sense of humor, and ``please
cleanse this world of virus``, etc. [? why didn`t He stop it in the
first place??], 0101 joins Hal Turner a minute late as usual. Here`s
John Carver`s version:

``Tonight's AAWWW --- Tonight's show started on time on 4790, 6160 and
7490. Allan and Angela in the studio. Allan is taking about Angela
being naked in the studio. Also complaining about the temperature as
it's now 58 degrees at the station. Then talk of people wanting to do
away with TV and radio and put everything on the cloud. Then talk
about the war concerning gender talk. Was also announced that the new
tube for the superstation is on its way to Maine. Phone call at 0027
from Freddie who is off the phone in a short time. Phone call at 0035
with a reception report from an old listener. Phone call at 0037 from
a listener asking about the other frequencies they're using tonight.
Allan then reads something that was sent to the station last week by a
listener and written by Thomas Paine. Phone call at 0048 from Tim who
manages to turn a pleasant non political show political as usual.
Finally off the phone Tim calls back immediately to make a point and
then off the phone again. Reading of emails at 0056 and closing prayer
at 0059. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
