** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. 9700 // 11725, Sat May 31 at 0617, RNZP in
AM on both, and equally S9/+30, with ``Get Your Kix on Route 66``
version by The Rolling Stones! as back-announced. I`m a Rt 66 guy!
having spent my first nine years in our house right next to it in
Santa Rosa NM. I thought this would be RNZ`s request show, but on sked
does not start until 0708: ``7:08 PM. Saturday Night - Saturday nights
on RNZ National is where Paul Brennan plays the songs YOU want to
hear. All music from 7 till midnight (RNZ)``. During the previous hour
it`s: ``6:06 PM. Nashville Babylon - Mark Rogers offers the very best
in Americana, alt country, folk, soul and blues music (RNZ)`` and with
playlist: ``Artist: Rolling Stones, Track: Route 66, Composer: Bobby
Troup, Album: The Rolling Stones, Label: Decca``.
RNZP own sked shows 11725 only until 0758, then from 0759, both 9700 &
11725. This conflicts with two other 9700 stations listed in EiBi, but
no sign of them: Ouargla, Algeria until 0700, and Romania in German at
0600-0630! Aoki however shows ALG ending at 06, and I rather doubt
they are there at all.
BTW, `Samantha Brown`s Places to Love` on PBS/OETA Create channel is
in a marathon including this episode:
Route 66 - Missouri to Oklahoma #809 --- Samantha starts her trip with
a view of the St. Louis Arch and visits Ted Drewes Frozen Custard,
famous for its thick desserts. She meets author Michael Wallis, who
shares insights on Route 66. Exploring Cuba, Missouri, she admires
colorful murals and the Osage Trail Legacy monument. Crossing the
Arkansas River, she stops at the Uranus Fudge Factory. In Carthage,
she learns about a little-known Civil War battle before heading to
Springfield, the official birthplace of Route 66. In Kansas, she
visits Gearhead Curios, a unique pit-stop, then meets a joyful
business owner at Buck Atom's Cosmic Curios in Tulsa. Finally, she
reflects on the Tulsa massacre at a memorial before learning why Tulsa
is known as the Route 66 capital.
Broadcast In: English Duration: 0:27:45 HD CC Additional Airings:

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2297 monitoring: not confirmed UT
Sat May 31 at 0300 on WTWW since 5085 is still off the air altho was

P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 810, May 31 at 0626 UT, strong and steady dead air at S9+28,
presumably usual dominator WHB Kansas City failing again to diffuse
stupid sportstalk. But there is a JBA signal underneath with soft
music, 0626 unexpected ID as ``-- 95 FM, 810 AM``. That`s probably
KLVZ Brighton CO, per NRC AM Log, U4 2200/430 oldies, ``Legends 95.3 &
AM 810`` - I don`t see any other 810 correlating with FM 95-something.
WHB is U2 50/5 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 900 kHz, May 31 at 0659 UT tune-in, immediate ID as ``AM 900
WKDA Lebanon`` TN, which is U1 5000/136 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1510 kHz, May 31 at 0636 UT, horrible collision, two talkers
at equal level. Besides WLAC Nashville, the other is surely KCTE
Independence MO, still cheating 10 kW daytimer! As previously logged
March 20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 9960, May 31 at 0620 & 0705, *still* dead air only from
RV, S8/S5 direct. Zach Liangas also reports at 1021 UT: ``Once again
in Townsville with only carrier from Vanuatu, 1016 LT 31/5 in
the spectean`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 810.49 approx., May 31 at 0630 UT, mystery JBA carrier
hetting 810 as I am logging WHB/KLVZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9339.58, May 31 at 0614, JBA carrier S4/S6, again
suspect spur out of 9330 WBCQ which is only S7/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9664.95, May 30 at 0623, RVM in Portuguese S7. Variable
frequency, never spot on 9665.000. TE signals somewhat enhanced, also
JBA carrier about 9818.54, R. Nove de Julho, always way below nominal
9820. Only two ZYs left on 31m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15500, 15520, 17715, 15390, Fri May 30 at 2159, SNR all four
in decreasing order of strength, as 17715 for Europe is much weaker
than recently with reduced MUF. 15390 // 15520 at first, then all join
for token English. Preview feature about a film commission, impact of
tariffs on US industry and locations in Spain; no news but instead at
2201 report from Lebanon correspondent about a Spanish music festival
in the mountains on May 21. By 2206 already into the film topic (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004+, May 30 at 2158, VOT not off the air, but JBA
direct vs noise level. At 2236 into UTwente when measured, S9+30/40,
Efsun the axentuated voicing something I can hardly understand. 2238
music. 2245 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2247 musix. 2254 s/off as if
it`s 17620 at 1230, awry at Ankara, bit of IS and off by 2255* (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2297 monitoring: confirmed first SWBC, Friday

S8/S9 and noisy into UTwente. Preceded by Wavescan and a few seconds
of ``UN News Today``, IRRS donation promo.
Also confirmed Friday May 30 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9+20 direct but

** U S A. Pre-AAAWWW chex of WBCQs, May 30 at 2344, into NH SDR: 3265
off. 5130 JBV carrier jumping between -50/-100 Hz, possibly exciter
only? 6160 also trace of something. 7490 -76 Hz S9/+10 with FKB. 9330
S7/S9 WLCR with RTTYditty on 9332.0. At *2355 as usual 5130 -85 Hz =
5129.915 cuts on with IS & ID loop. 2358, 6160 -72 Hz = 6159.928 now
on at full strength with music but from 0000 dead air. UT Sat May 31
at 0000, WTO theme and `AAAWWW` starts, first over-exclamation, ``Hey,
get flushin```. Could not copy the single word later. 0004 A&A are
again in same studio, Florida. Reminds Jason back in ME to be sure
they are on ``all`` frequencies and streaming -- but *still* not on
3265, or 6160, only 5130, 7490, 9330. Says admin is giving the country
an enema -- you know what that means. Politically charged environment
not just in USA but everywhere. 0011 accuses Harvard of anti-Semitism.
Declares there are only two sexes as a god ordained for mammals like
us. 0028 gospel? tune. 0033 reading article about plans to resume SW
in PNG. 0034 check, 6160 is still dead air! and 3265 is still off.
0035 endorses T`s attempt to kill VOA, NPR, PBS since they have become
``a little bit communistic`` - Enough of that for a while. 0050
laments that southern Maine is run by communistic democratic Moonbats,
unlike the good people in northern Maine. Also condemns AOC, Pelosi,
Schumer, why keep voting them in? 0052 items from new FRW just
published including some from gh but never credited and does not do
them justice. 0057 some other email. 0058 prayer. 0059 my internet
connexion is lost, tsk; but back in a few minutes It was too late to
bother tuning in SW direct. For more rational political coverage
during the same original AAAWWW hour, may I recommend `All In` on
MSNBC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 9960, May 30 at 0621, S7/S9 of dead air still from R.
Vanuatu. Other reports:
``Checking 9960 sporadically this evening (about 0310-0550Z 5/30) via
the northern NZ SDR, there's been a carrier on throughout, much weaker
than the past week), but no audio (Chuck Albertson, Seattle, Wash.)``
``0631, 9960 just the carrier of -69dbm in Townsville Australia`` -
Zach Liangas
``0745 UT and still open carrier on 9960; did NOT switch to 3945 at
0658, on May 30.
Nothing new from engineer at the station. Ron Howard``
``Hi Glenn - May 30, at 1805 UT, on 9960 kHz is still just an open
carrier with no modulation (no audio). Ron`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1690, May 30 at 0638-0640+ UT, very strange sound like a
reel-to-reel tape fast forwarding or rewinding across the heads. Not
adjacent QRM. Mixed with another station in normal English talk. The
three closest 1690s normally heard are: WVON Chicago, WMLB Atlanta,
KDMT Denver; all of them licensed to a suburb, why? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9339.57, May 30 at 0626, S5/S6 carrier, suspect spur
from WLCR/WBCQ 9330 but it`s only S8/S9, no modulation audible and no
match on the minus side. Previously caught them May 18 with a spur on
9346.04 which did modmatch 9330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, May 29 at 0547, JBA carrier, so R Vanuatu is back on
air; on indoor random wire during lightning storm. However, Ron Howard
reports:
``May 29 (Thursday UT) am hearing Radio Vanuatu on 9960, BUT is only
with a strong open carrier, with no modulation (no audio!) from 0600+
via SDR remote in NZ. Again have notified the station. Radio Vanuatu
on 9960, at 0658* UT cut off the air; switched to 3945, but again only
with an open carrier with no audio. At 0820 UT, Radio Vanuatu on 3945,
is still just an open carrier with no audio. Radio Vanuatu (3945)
continues with just an open carrier (dead air) at 0920 UT.
Ron, Monterey, Calif`` - and Zacharias Liangas: ``1035z with only
carrier`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2297)
UNIDENTIFIED. Another reply about this: ``Glenn, When I see the
carrier on 6938, it is almost always accompanied what I call “the
ladder” that stretches from a hair over 6942.5 to about 6946. Although
I have recorded hours of broadcasting on 43 meters, and check 6938
regularly, including using USB, I have never seen or heard any audio.
In this shot at around 0145 on 26 May, the 6938 signal is about 30 dB
above the background noise — plenty for something to be heard or seen
on the waterfall if there were something to see or hear. The yellow
band is the bandwidth (1350 Hertz) of the receiver tuned to 6938.000.

flutter, i.e. CRI Portuguese service from Xianyang site this hour only
which of course is nothing but fill music, like used to be at 23+ UT
via Cuba 13650. Today however at 2345 check into Georgia SDR, 13650 is
in suptorted English presumably CRI via Cuba, -2400*. As for 11760,
RHC is never heard anymore on its #1 legacy frequency (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, May 27 at 2225, S9/+10 of suptorted music, probably
RHC Portuguese service, where something is always wrong. Likewise 24h

** U S A [and non]. Glenn, I got the news just now at 1622 UT, it
(shortwave from the VOA) is over. All PSC are fired. A manager is on
his way to Kuwait to oversee the shutdown of that station and as I
understand it de-commissioning. There will be some folks left to
oversee the shutdown of Greenville. What has happened is, in Trump`s
big, beautiful bill, all funding for the USAGM has been removed. No
money, no shortwave or anything for that matter. I think I`m gonna
drink today. Glenn W7GS/8 (ex-Greenville)(via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** U S A. 9917.1 & 9942.9, May 28 at 2216, parasitic spurs out of 9930
WTWW which is S9+40/50, but no serious splatter. Strange that the
plus/minus 12.9 kHz are sometimes there, sometimes not; different
tunings or different transmitters? Heard before out of 5085 but not
5920, or 9475? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1660, May 28 at 0622 UT tuneby, immediately hear credit to
North Dakota Broadcasters Association, back to Dan Patrick show. So it
is KQWB, West Fargo, allegedly called ``Bison 1660``. Normally
dominant are KWOD Kansas City or KRZI Waco (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

(9960 kHz) power problems --- May 28 (Wednesday UT), am hearing
problems on 9960: 0555 to 0607* UT, with very good signal via SDR
remote in New Zealand, till the transmitter suddenly cut off.
*0612-0613*, transmitter back on for a minute, till cut off again.
0613+, still silent through 0635. Have notified the station of the
problem. - - - - - Appreciate the quick reply from Pryce Aptenbel:
"Dear Ron, Thank you for your message and for monitoring our
broadcast. Apologies for the disruption — there was a power cut, which
likely caused the issue you observed. I’m currently on my way to
restart the transmitter and get us back on the air as soon as
possible. We appreciate your continued support and patience. Best
regards" -- 0730 UT - Radio Vanuatu still silent on 9960. Ron,
