** COSTA RICA [non]. Berny Solano2 of `Mundo Sorprendente` asks me to
spread the word that because of pandemic restrixions, he has not yet
been able to send out all the calendars and QSLs; BTW, my packet
arrived by registered mail, so I had to stand in line behind a
maskless Enidiot coughing --- she says, ``just allergy``. Berny:

``Estimado don Glenn, ¡Qué alegría que haya recibido el paquete
postal!, que lo hemos enviado con muchísimo gusto y agradecimiento.
Que disfrute el calendario.

A la vez, le cuento que hay paquetes postales que por las
restricciones de la pandemia, no las he podido enviar.

Estoy atento en el momento en que puedan ser enviados. Quería
comentárselo por si pudiera ayudarme a hacer eco de la situación.

Con todo respeto y estima, Berny`` (G. Glenn Hauser, OC, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, March 30 at 0644, RHC English not only with humbuzz but
is also pulsing, worsening it more. // 6100 is OK, 6165 is
undermodulated, 6000 is off; and at 0649, 5040 is still on but in
Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11880, March 30 at 2309, RHC is NOT in English but
Kriyol! English hour at 23-24 had been on 11880 & 5040 since Yanqui
DST start March 14. And now 5040 is in Spanish, not English either.

15730, March 30 at 2309, I first found Kriyol on this reactivated, S9
but distorted and modulation crackling, then found // on L&C 11880.
Talking about Haïti, Duvalier. RHC scheduling is SNAFU! What else?

13650, March 30 at 2306, the only Cuban active on this band now, no
13680 or 13740; still pointless CRI Portuguese relay filled with
Chinese music, and considerable CCI from R. Japan direct backward in
Thai. On 19m, RHC trace on 15230, no 15370, but 15730 as above.

9650, 11670, 11760, March 30 at 2314, RHC Spanish mainstream, but
11850 and parasites 11840 & 11860 are off. Separate Spanish, `Mesa
Redonda` TV soundtrack this hour, on VG 11950 but with crosstalk, //
JBM 6000 at 2313.

6000 is off by 0007 March 31, rather than English which has already
started on 6165. Multiple somethings wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** IRAN. 9835 & 9855, March 30 at 1930, VIRI with news in American
English, COVID stats, etc. New A-21 frequencies for 1920-2020 English,
both good into UTwente, but 9855 has an additional rustling sound. So
English remains on SW. Meanwhile, still uncertainty about some other
languages on SW: French missing, but Spanish resumed? Not the *2350
broadcast, nothing into Bonaire on 9620 or 7325 at 0002 check March 31
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, March 30 at 2147, I remember to check REE`s alleged N
American frequency, which yesterday lasted only one hour+,
*1755-1900*. Not a trace of it now direct, nor via VA SDR after 2200.
15520 to ME is JBA, which means the MUF is lowered, so 17855 could be
on but not propagating at all. That leaves 11940 to S America which
would have been second-best here, but now is first-best, fair and
sufficient. At 2204 via VA SDR, if it`s Tuesday, Ladino music, long
`Emisión Sefarad` announcement and more nice music after 2216.

Earlier, Richard Langley, agrees on the WOR iog: ``Today (30 March)
here in NB noted REE only on 15520 kHz and 11940 kHz (weak) at around
2040 UT -- Richard Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SRI LANKA. 11755, March 30 at 1610, S Asian song, S7-S9 and
fluttery on a frequency mostly vacant. It`s AWR Trinco in Urdu, the
only thing ever scheduled, at 1600-1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, March 30 at 2203, VOT English to N America, first
checked via UTwente, only a trace under RTTY even over there until
RTTY stops at 2204; into Virginia SDR, it`s S9-S7 without the RTTY.
Recheck direct to here at 2303, 9830 is still on in spurious German,
VP. Still going at 2327 but gone at next check 2333. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 9615, March 30 at 1612, S7-S8 in Korean; at first seemed
tonal, but ``imnida`` giveaways. 입니다 is a very common word in KK, yet
google translate does not recognize it, tries to make it Indonesian. A
basic search on the Romanized word leads to explanation that it merely
means ``is``. Anyhow, this is BBC via USAGM Tinang, PHILIPPINES at
1530-1830. 21-degree azimuth carries right on into North America as a
bonus (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 227-MCW kHz, March 30 at 0643 UT, ND beacon TNZ, which is 25
watts from Walnut Ridge / Lawrence County, Arkansas, just south of
Pocahontas, in the NE corner. This is a *new* one for me, increasingly
hard to find vs all the oldies I usually skip relogging.

This also reminds me that altho my first log of POH on 428 kHz, the
highest-frequency MW beacon in the Conterminous, was correctly
attributed to IOWA, a later one in December was mistakenly put in
Arkansas! Pocahontas, IA is NW of Fort Dodge (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Shepherd on German cockroaches` rapid breeding. Yes, the `Old Time

hour on Fridays; and always Jean Shepherd first, as in this week`s

** U S A. 15745-15750-15755, March 30 at 1607, WINB hybrid DRM noise
succeeds reactivated A-season frequency today unlike yesterday; tonal
in the lower half with still unknown content or purpose (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re my remark about prolonged offfrequenciness of WKVQ
1540.200, "...Whatever became of a major FCC monitoring post in GA,
Powder Springs? ..." --- Greg Hardison, now in CA, replies:

``Glenn, you may have been with us, were you not?, when we toured the
Powder Springs facility during the 1978 National Radio Club Convention
in Atlanta. I seem to recall R390s, at least one R388, and other
venerable boat-anchors of that ilk, whilst drooling uncontrollably!
Not long ago I scoured the area via Google SatView, which as I recall
was a mile or so south of Powder Springs Rd., not far from the present
WDWD/590 and WAZX/1550 xmtr sites. I saw plenty of newish development
on what used to be pig farms during my childhood, but no signs of the
FCComplex, which covered several acres back in the day. I applied
unsuccessfully to the FCC at age 18; at that time the Allegan [MI]
facility was used for training purposes, among other usage. I did find
Google-directed e-thread concerning the overall subject here - but
beware, some of the posters seem to have issues with apparent drug
use: https://groups.google.com/g/rec.radio.cb/c/Yd1L5ZxVjqs

That '78 meetup was perhaps the most tour-centric in NRC history.
Besides the FCC, we also saw both studios and transmitter for WSB/750,
and the Shepherds Lane FM/TV "candleabra", shepherded by then-WBIE
owner Jim Wilder, thanks to Karl Jeter. My own contribution was
arranging a quick look at the Turner-satellite uplink for WTCG (later
WTBS), off in what used to be the woods behind Cumberland Mall --
nowadays gone and replaced by rampant development. Ahhh, my twisted
days of Youth!...``

I don`t remember seeing that FCC station; only the one by Grand
Island, Nebraska (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN [non]. 11900, March 30 at 2314, 1 kHz tone causes me pause;
2315 hymnic ditty and opening Vietnamese: it`s Vatican Radio via USAGM
Tinang, PHILIPPINES, a semisesquihour violating Separation of Church
and State, S7-S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 6205, March 31 at 0005, NO signal from ROCV into Bonaire
SDR; now what? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 383-MCW kHz, March 30 at 0634 UT, JBA ND beacon,
two-letter ID, first letter definitely H, second not positive but
maybe W. None such listed on 383-385 in dxinfocentre.com, so I check
more comprehensive classaxe.com --- on 385 there is 100 watt HV at
Hiva Oa, Marquesas Islands, but I can`t imagine getting that, so far
only reported from AZ, CA and OR. V of course is ...- while W is .--
What else? Nothing closer than that; something miskeying? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0033 UT March 31

** CANADA. 2598-USB, March 30 at 0224 UT, marine weather in English by
roboyl, S6 = band noise level and unreadable beyond language ID, from
NL area. 0230 recheck after the other goes off, now this one in
French.

2749-USB, March 30 at 0224 UT, stronger CCG marine weather channel
from NS area, S8 vs S5 noise level. In French but reading a
``déclaration`` rather than wx info; what`s that about? Stops at
0229*.

Do these stations shift sked according to local DST or not? If so,
does https://dxinfocentre.com/mb.htm take that into account? Going by
skeds there, at these UT hours, I have been listening to:
2598: VOJ-6, Port-aux-Basques NL, 400 watts starting at 0207, EE/FF
2749: VAR-9, Yarmouth (Halifax) NS, 1200 watts from 0140, EE/FF

One might compare info at Canadian Coast Guard and EiBi sites but have
not yet done so. In the spring I am glad to be getting them this well
without much Blitz, confined to the Gulf coast between LA and FL
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, March 30 at 0240, RHC Spanish still with humbuzz on
this transmitter. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6165, March 30 at 0242, RHC English undermodulated, SAWA, yet
splashing over 6160 where WBCQ is absent, but would be QRMed. Wonder
if they will ever go back to 5130, where meanwhile real pirates
sometimes show (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6125, March 30 at 0156, wall-of-noise jamming
against nothing, since R. Marti has moved back to 5980 for the A-21
season. But the DentroCuban Jamming Command is too dumb just to look
at the publicly posted HFCC schedules, which RM follows strictly. So
RM is L&C on 5980 at 0156, no jamming audible, altho later in night we
do hear some jamming against nothing [jaman?] on 5980, and right now
there is light pulse jamming on 6080 against nothing, from a single
transmitter apparently leaping from 5980 over 6030 where there is
heavy multiple jamming as usual vs RM. The 5980, 6030 and 6125
situations remain the same at 0238 recheck.

On 41 mb, more jaman at 0254 on 7355, 7345, while RM is really
unjammed L&C on 7365 & 7335, BTW with a report about Myanmar.

Not to set the jammers straight, but here is the A-21 scheduling of RM
on the bottom bands; note OFF the air 04-10, no jamming needed!

5980 M-F 22-03 Tu-Sa -- forget about R. Chaski except weekends
6030 00-04 & 10-12 daily as are all the rest
7335 22-04 & 10-14
7345 17-02 NOT specified as DRM tho it always has been
7365 00-03 & 12-14
7435 03-04 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 770, March 30 at 0242 UT, ``Fórmula Financiera`` mentioned
and 0243 ``Grupo Fórmula, Monterrey, 7-70 AM``, QRM from another SS,
hard to separate from SSW, probably Fresnillo. The mountain king
station is XEACH. I thought condx were somewhat auroral, but K-index
at 03 is zero, no storms (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6186, March 30 at 0152, XEPPM has slight QRM from
a double-blip every four seconds exactly, about 1 kHz above 6185.
Lasts a while, but not there at 0243 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7395-USB, March 30 at 0252, two-way in unID language, JBA,
not Spanish, maybe Slavic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 880, March 30 at 0335 UT, Mexmx is dominant over KRVN, soon
ID as ``La Tremenda 8-80 --- La Raza``; loops NE/SW. That makes it
WIJR, Highland IL (St Louis MO mkt), nominally U4 1700/160 watts. Both
day and night patterns aim thisaway:

** U S A. 1540.200v, March 30 at 0302 UT, tell-tale het still here
against 1540.00 stations, WKVQ Eatonton GA. Whatever became of a major
FCC monitoring post in GA, Powder Springs? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1319.720, March 30 at 0322 UT, MW bandscan encounters
another intriguing way-off-frequency het like 1540-. Wavers slightly
and can`t make out any mod; loops E-W-ish vs some sports station, and
vs Black Information Network, new identity of KXYZ Houston. OK`s KCLI
Clinton has been slightly off-frequency for ages but not this much.
Aha, mwoffsets has a recent answer:
`` 1319.717 WCOG r:WTOB (Greensboro, NC) 2021-03-16``
Does r:WTOB mean it relays that 980 station in Winston Salem, also the
address of WCOG? It`s U4 5/5 kW; night pattern supposed to go SE, day
pattern SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, March 30 at 0257:
585, 612, 621, 639(2), 684, 693, 747, 774(2), 855(2), 891, 999, 1098,
1107, 1125, 1152, 1215 kHz. 747 is interesting, no superpowers in
Europe beyond 25 kW Canary Islands, if not 100 kW Iran. Lately am not
hearing much from 531 Algeria even when 891 is in; something changed?
I thought condx were somewhat auroral, but K-index at 03 is zero, no
storms (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 800, March 30 at 0337 UT, open carrier over CKLW, but

** BONAIRE. ``Hi Glenn… in your post “International MWDX to Enid OK,
March 22-28, 2021” to the NRC-AM group, you suggested that they “must
be deliberately attenuating it, understandably” on the Kiwi SDR.

Indeed -- hovering your mouse on the blue “TWR Bonaire” tab at the top
of the waterfall display, a message on a longer yellow tab comes up:
“TWR Bonaire PJB3 - 30dB notch filter on 800kHz to prevent receiver
overload.” 73, Randy Stewart, Battlefield MO`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** COSTA RICA [non]. Berny Solano sent beautiful large-format 2021
calendar portraying the trees of CR, ÁRBOLES MÁGICOS, put out by the
foundation of the same name, http://www.arbolesmagicos.org
It`s almost a foot square, 14.34 x 14.34 cm. Berny had offered this
for all reports on his `Mundo Sorprendente` holiday special, along
with QSL card also enclosed, for 24 Dec 2020 at 01-02 on WRMI 7780.

Tnx, Berny! His show is originally on TIRCR, 930, 5 kW in San José.
WRTH 2021 shows a dagger next to it, without explanation, unlike
double-dagger which means inactive. Only on faraway page 659 do we
find that single-dagger means: irregular. Is it? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** IRAN. 7325 & 9620, March 29 from 2350 past 2400+, zero signals from
VIRI in Spanish, checked via Virginia and Bonaire SDRs, despite A-21
registrations there for Latin America thru end of October. Meanwhile
AER posted on ForoDX another notification from station that SW would
be ceasing as of March 29:

``Nos dirigimos a usted para informarle, hoy, 29 de marzo de 2021, la
Redacción Española de la Voz Exterior de la RII, como emisora de la
onda corta, se despide de los queridos oyentes que durante más de 40
[años] nos han acompañado, siguiendo la programación y alentándonos
con sus amistosos mensajes y cartas.

Por medio de la presente anunciamos que la radio, en onda corta de
Irán a partir de la misma fecha se integra al canal de televisión
iraní en lengua española HispanTV, desde la cual continuará su trabajo
como una radio por Internet...``

Not crying wolf, this time they really mean it. However Wolfgang
Bueschel confirmed some other languages, at least Albanian and Hausa,
were still SW airing today.

For the record, in case any further checking be done, A-21 Spanish:
0720-0820 15440 17815
2020-2120 7375 9665
2350-0120 7325
2350-0250 9620

And English evidently continues:
1520-1620 7410
1920-2020 9835 9855
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, new A-21 North American frequency of REE was AWOL on
first day of season March 28, so I am QRX for it March 29, supposed to
start at 1800 M-F. Monitoring via Virginia SDR at first: *1755 with IS
at S5, at 1756 powered up to S9. At 1803 to my own R75 deeper in NAm,
it`s S8/9+10. I plan to check it at least hourly this afternoon to
find how long it last or when it fade out; by 1843 has weakened to
S9-S7, fading. It`s roughly equal to 15520 to ME, off the back to us
but which is not fading down; better than 11940 to S America.

Oh2, at 1857 check, 17855 keeps cutting off and on the air, and stays
off after 1900 --- never to be heard again; nor on ex-9690. So that
transmitter is upacting again wherever it may be. Still off at 1930
even into Virginia. At 2200 when it`s the new earlied time for token
English, we have no choice but backward 15520, which is still S9+10
into VA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2079 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday March 29 at 0230 on WRMIs: 7780, S9, after ID and music bit;
5800 S9+10/20.

Checking what`s going on at our former A-season time, 0300 UT Mondays
on WBCQs: 6159.93 still with white-racist `Herald of Truth` which was
moved here because 7490 had to go off at 0430 for WHRI at least on
weekdays, not any more; but now WBCQ 7490+ is still going with TOMBS.
So maybe we are stuck at 2200 Sundays in the summer daytime.

Also, via UTwente SDR, confirmed on IRRS 7290 presumed Bulgaria,
Monday March 29 from 1800:47, modulation cutting on after the WOR
theme has started, very loud and overmodulated. Atop CCI from CNR
Chinese which causes a slow SAH, scheduled to quit at 1805* but I`m
late for lunch and don`t keep listening. Presumably intact, WOR
concluding at 1829:36 without chop, IRRS ID and FSN.

This is all one UT hour earlier due to imposition of DST in Europe. I
was monitoring from the start: At 1747, 7290 had CCI between China and
VIRI in Russian, but Iran quit as scheduled by 1749.5* leaving S5-S6
of CNR. During a Chinese song, at *1756 IRRS carrier comes on, shortly
powers up to S9+20, open except for some hum. Instead of sign-on,
continues silent, no mod until WOR JIP as above. Meanwhile I could
hear the CNR top-of-hour timesignal.

Meanwhile I have also been checking out the adjacent+ channel QRM as
heard by UTwente. This splash has been a serious drawback all
B-season, but now it`s better. First at 1747, 7300 has German from
Iran, but nothing on 7295, 7285 or 7280. At 1824 the closest is 7275,
CRI Chinese from Urumqi until 1827*; leaving at 1830 nothing closer
than 7265, CRI Bulgarian via Urumqi, not problems. Thruout there has
been dittering on 7305, not a problem either like it was when on 7290.
Standard remark about East Turkistan. Next:

** CHINA [non]. 9580, March 29 at 0115, CRI English at S9+10 via CUBA,
CCCCCCI at first turned out to be self-imposed QRM by voiceover
translation, not fading down completely the original language. Ex-6180
now clear for Brasil if they care to use it. Well, not completely, CRI
English southward from Kashgar is still on 6180 at 0000-0200, via EAST
TURKISTAN, land of ChiCom imperialist genocide and persecution of the
Uyghurs. Altho not stated, my previous report of CRI at 1500 on 11880
was also via CUBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, March 29 at 2203, RHC not in French as expected at
shifted time to ``Africa`` but Spanish, music show // other mainstream
Spanish: 11850 JBM, 11760, 9650, 9535 and reactivated 15370, S9+25/30
and distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC. However, by 2316,
11880 is properly in English, going from `This Week in Cuba` to
`Mailbag` with no sign of `DXers Unlimited` which used to occupy this
timearea.

15230, at 2205 check March 28 is in Brazuguese, but distorted and
wobbly. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, March 29 at 0117, RHC English is gone again: I bet it`s
back to 49 meters --- Yes, there it is on reactivated 6165, S9+10/20,
which will be a QRM problem for 6159.93 WBCQ; -70 Hz offset won`t help
much; and still on // 6000. RHC should really stay on 31m thru the
summer for some frequency- and noise-level diversity, tsk2 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. As I have reported in detail to MWDX groups, KSDA SW site is
hosting a temporary antenna setup for KUAM 630, which has been off the
air since May 1, 2020; it will be at reduced power and under new
ownership and religious format. Matt Francis replies on the WOR iog:

``Hi Glenn, The assignee - Good News Broadcasting Corporation - is the
not-for-profit operator of JOY FM in Guam KSDA 91.9 FM and KORU 89.9
FM in Northern Marianas Islands. According to their website, they
assumed responsibility for the FM station sometime after 1992. It had
originally started operating from the AWR-Asia studios in Guam in
1991, but Good News took over following a decision by AWR to shift
away from local AM & FM broadcasting.

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST A-21 UPDATE

Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm

1) UTC offset notations updated for DST changes in Croatia, Germany,
Greece, Romania, and Spain
2) Chad - R Ndarason Int: Added links to this station
3) Germany - Media Broadcast: Updated link to redirect to A-21
schedule
4) Norway - RNEI: Added links to this station
5) Spain - REE: Deleted link to old B-20 frequency schedule

Unless there's a major change anywhere, the next update will be in one
week to take account of DST change in NZ. Best wishes and 73 (Alan

** CHINA [non]. 11880, March 28 at 1459, S9+20 open carrier, as CRI
relay is back down here for A-21, usual switch from 15700 during B-20.
Wow, successfully starts modulating at 1500, ID as ``CRI Plus Radio``,
into Commie Party ``news``. Somewhat undermodulated but with this
bigsig one can safely upturn the volume. Why 11 MHz in summer and 15
MHz in winter is not clear; some propagation model calls for that?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, March 28 at 0603, once again this RHC English suffers
from big humbuzz. 6000 has just cut off; // 6100 is undermodulated
with somehum but tolerable. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 13605, March 28 at 1452, R. Martí has made its
totally predictable and registered A-season switch from 13820, VG here
and if there is any jamming, inaudible; while 13820 still has
wall-of-noise jamming against nothing. Something`s always wrong at the
incompetent DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, March 28 at 1455, new A-21 REE frequency is S9 with
silly ballgame to ME, ex-12030; but new N American frequency 17855 is
missing, supposed to begin at *1400 weekends; nor on ex-9690 either.
Off to a great start. 11940 to SAm is VP. As usual the ME frequency is
best for us off the back if there is none thisaway! Propagation MUF
insufficient for 17855? No, should work over totally-insolated
daypath, if not later into the night. But only signal on 16m is JBA
17630 CRI Mali. I check various remotes: at 1533, Maine is getting
zero on 17855 & 9690; at 1535, RSA is getting zero on 17855 & 15520;
Kuwait is getting 15520 OK, nothing on 17855 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2079 monitoring: tnx to Richard
Langley, NB and Wolfie Büschel, Germany for confirming WOR is NOT on
WRMI 15770 Sunday March 28 at 1130, but as per skedgrid, Wavescan.
