** CUBA. 5025, Jan 30 at 0720, R. Rebelde is on and modulating, but
nothing on X2 = 10050; despite frequent chex, have not heard that nor
10080 = 5040 X2 RHC lately. It seems 10080 was last heard Jan 12;
10050 Dec 11. Something`s not wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13680, Sun Jan 29 at 2138, RHC in Arabic, not Esperanto; and
15140 is off: either of which have sometimes spoken Esperantely.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. However, Jan 30 at 2203, 15140 still
on late with headlines and news in Spanish, S9+10/20 the SSOB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15680, Jan 30 at 2202, S7/S9 in unID SE Asian? language,
OOFSOB = One Of Few Signals On Band. EiBi shows at 2200-2230, KSDA in
NJ to Indonesia; Aoki, Nga. EiBi readme.txt language list shows NGA -
all caps, means Ngangela/Nyemba: Angola, but that can`t be right;
while NJ, not New Joisey dialect, but: Ngaju Dayak: Indonesia-Borneo
(0.9m) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 30 at 0652, S9+10/20 of dead air except for
squeal from VON. Something`s always abnormal at Abuja (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Jan 30 at 2306, token M/W/F English from REE,
after news, Amy Egan interviewing a woman director? about a play based
on letters between two women of different ages. S9 +20 on NAm
frequency into Maryland SDR, weaker on meter but still VG on 12030 to
ME off the back, and 11940 to SAm off the sidish. Still zero signal on
11670 or 11685 to Africa. Occupies rest of semihour with 2 minutes of
song about letters to conclude (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 30 at 2309, VOT VG into UTwente, last news item
about Toyota going to build E-SUVs in Turkey; 2311 `Review of the
Turkish Press`, as the CCCCCCI starts from E Turkistan, std
denunciation. 2313 song. 2317 `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`
about health benefits of pickles, evidently also various other foods
pickled such as Sauerkraut: good for intestines, anti-oxident, affects
moods, ending with ``Stay healthy, stay happy``. This bit surely has a
catchy themetune: what is it? 2324 multi-lingual ID reel filler,
during which I recognize a few more languages which WRTH says are NOT
on VOT SW sked: Greek, Romanian, Hungarian. Tsk: BTW, Hungarian is
related to Turkish. 2326 song. Not attentive during 2330 NBC Eveningly
News; 2353 s/off, 2355 IS, 2356 restart IS with one German ID before
chopoff at 2356.7 uncovering XJPBS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4095 CW, Jan 30 at 0713 UT, Desert Whooper beacon somewhere
in the Southwest, DW ID and sweeps upward; JBA in noise level, unheard
for months on occasional chex. 2097.3 CW, single-letter beacon A every
dekasecond is still JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13563.5 CW, Jan 29 at 2137, PCO, 4-milliwatt HIFER beacon at
Pine, ColoradO, is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: Confirmed Sunday
January 29 at 2100.5 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR; 2058 ME music, faded out at 2100 for ID
claiming frequencies are 7125!, 9510, 1323. During announcement, music
CCI JBA underneath with slow SAH, probably Smooth Radio, Brighton,
England.

Missed checking UT Monday January 30 at 0030 on WRMI 7780: did anyone
hear it?

Confirmed UT Monday January 30 at 0400 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 minus 64
Hz = 6159.936, S9/+5 VG into Maryland SDR. Next:

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid, OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4980, Jan 30 at 0717, S9+20 of dead air, another WRMI not
turned off, #4 supposedly scheduled 23-05 UT only with System C
Legends; but the System C program schedule below unshows 4980 at all!
nor for any other System (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17790, Jan 29 at 2131, S9+10 of dead air, still past 2141.
WRMI did not turn off #7, scheduled 1500-2100 only, Radio Africa
Network, toward S America, not Africa. NO details of programming as
perhaps ashamed of some of the dead and discredited gospel huxters
they are so excited, jumping for joy, to diffuse. WRMI sked refers to
https://www.radiopanam.com/
where no program sked can be found, nor specifically via:
https://www.radiopanam.com/impact/radio-africa-network/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 900, Jan 30 at 2230-2300 UT, KSGL Wichita KS, I find myself
listening to while resting/napping for some nice music: nostalgic love
songs, like `Midnight Gambler`, `Green Eyes` today. It`s 250/28 watts,
direxional E/W squished but sufficient signal to Enid, barely beyond
the daytime fringe contour per radio-locator. I never hear it at night
tho XEW hardly merits protexion any more. KSGL is split/personality
between `Music You Remember` -- is that a satellite syndication? And
gospel-huxtering, fortunately each in distinct segments. This leads to
program schedules and other info: http://www.ksglradio.com/
Official FCC sunset times in UT: 2330 Jan, 0015 Feb, 0030 March... I
think it used to be IBOC, but too weak here to notice noise circa 887,
913; and no longer listed as such in NRC AM Log (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Jan 30 at 0653, R. Vanuatu is JBA still here,
unchecked whether 7890 & 11835 after 0659 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Jan 30
at 0656: 855-2, 1044, 1089 kHz. Lowers would be Spain, but none on
1089, rather 700+ kW of TalkSport synchros, UK. No 846 TP Kiritimati
this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10001 USB, Jan 30 at 0718, 2-way intermittent, unseems
Spanish; inadvisable right next to WWV/H! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Jan 29 at 0644, RHC in English, S9+10/20, supposed to
be Spanish only and off much earlier; while the correct English
frequencies of 5040, 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, 12000 are all OFF
already. 11760 is still on at 0732 starting jazz show, S9+10.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, Sun Jan 29 at 1600, RHC on here at S9/+10, not 13700,
but no spurs; Spanish ID and supposedly only on 11760 & 15140 after
1600. IS, and opening Esperanto, 1603 wrong info for all three weekly
broadcasts as I have quoted time and again. Today Esp`o not only on
usual 11760 and 15140 but extras 13740 and by 1610, 15230 is also
still on, JBM S9. 15140 is S9+20/30 with adequate modulation level but
some squeal. Somethings` always wrong at RHC. EiBi shows 13700 at
1400-1600 only, but 13740 at 1200-1600 & 2200-0500; 15230 at 1300-1600
& 2300-0600, no mention of Esperanto for any except 11760 & 15140
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** DENMARK [and non]. 25800, Jan 29 at 1615, JBA carrier the OSOB,
while Andy Robins & Harold Frodge in MI, Andy Reid in Ontario, have
been getting more than that before and at 1700 today. It`s World Music
Radio, 60 watts, 24/7 per op SHN as of 12/31. Per Aoki & EiBi it`s the
only SWBC station active on the 11 mb. There used to be something DRM
from Germany? HFCC shows imaginary registrations from Bulgaria 26000,
Vatican 26010 for IRDR; and WMR might alternatively use 25795 or
25805.

A few years ago there were US low-power NBFM ``remote pickup`` or
``talkback`` transmitters, 25870 from WFLA, 25950 from Denver, 25990
from The Metroplex, or vice versa? And several more in the 26.1-26.5
range, all gone now? Never reported or listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NETHERLANDS. 6020, Jan 29 at 0733, JBA carrier, presumed Delta
Radio International, as being reported active as far away as BC by
Walt Salmaniw. Per EiBi, only other signal now would be Vietnam, but
well before sunset there. 6020 suffers from 6030 Cuban jamming against
nothing bleedover. DRI also on 11730 but no signal there here. It`s a
low-powered, irregular, ex-pirate (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 29 at 0635, VON is S9+20/30 with music but just
barely modulated. Something`s always abysmal at Abuja. Ron Howard was
also hearing it modulating before 0700 yesterday. Manuel Méndez and
Walt Salmaniw also hearing it before 0700 today. For me today it`s
still on and JBM past 0741 at S9/+10. Supposed to switch from Hausa to
Fulfulde at 0700; English after 0800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.072, Jan 29 at 1612, S9+10/20, the SSOB
in African language, from USAGM`s most capable off-frequency site,
Pinheira. EiBi shows VOA this semihour in KNK, which is keyed to mean
``KinyaRwanda/KiRundi service of VOA, BBC``. How different are they?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rwanda-Rundi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday January 29 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 to Maryland SDR, S9/+10
to Louisiana.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 29 at 0435 about 6 minutes into, so
started circa 0429 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+20 groundwave into
nearby SDR. Lots of CW QRM, some contest, best evaded by LSB tuning.

Vanuatu; by 0730 check, 11835 S8/S9 with island music, 3 x 3945.
Compared at 0735 to NZ on 13755: S9+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split 9/kHz MW carrier search, Jan 29
at 0636, trying earlier than usual: 693, 774, 855, 1053, 1521. 693
probably BBC Radio 5 Live synchros almost 300 kW total; 1053 Talk
Sport from UK, 500 kW altho also weaker Spaniards listed; 774 and 855
likely Spains as usual. Notably absent is 684, used to be 600 kW from
Sevilla RNE1, but power cut since last year, or off? MWlist.org shows
24h at 150/100 kW, which ought to be detectable here if the other
weaker ones are. As it`s Sunday, no TP signal on 846 from Kiritimati
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
