** CUBA. 11670, Oct 11 at 0640, RHC English at S9+10, a frequency
supposed to be only in Spanish and off by 0500. Sometimes happens,
failing to change same transmitter to one of 49mb frequencies, as now
all but 6165 are off, and that is also much weaker. However, 5040 is
also still on and in English, contrary to sked. And 5025 Rebelde is
off again. Somethings` always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [non]. 846 kHz, Tue Oct 11 at 0622, no signal here from
R. Kiribati. Still JBA carriers on 684 & 621, likely Peninsular and
Islander Spain, still pre-sunrise.

For those who may be confused. Kiritimati is the correct spelling in
Gilbertese of Christmas. It sounds more similar than it looks, as the
``ti` is their way of rendering ``s``. It`s a subset of the entire
widely-spanned country of Kiribati, pronounced Kiribas, itself a
corruption of Gilbert. As such, Kiritimati should be considered a
separate ``radio country``, with 2 kilomiles of ocean between its
eastern and western islands (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11775, Oct 11 at 0641, talk and presumably Kurdish
music, Dengê Welat via BULGARIA; with fast SAH and weaker CCI,
presumably Tuerkiyeish jammer. Or vice versa. Ivo says D.W. switches
from 7285 to 11775 at 0530, but unclear total span of each (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 11 at 0625, no signal from VON direct. At 1809,
no signal either into Canary SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2159 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday October 11 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, VG S9/+20. Next:

2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

*WRMI frequencies not yet reactivated, and may be considerable delay.
At those scheduled times, check all other active WRMI frequencies in
case there have been a schedule switch, at least temporarily.

** U S A. 9455, Oct 11 at 0629, this WRMI is back on, S9+10 with SMTV,
the Supreme Masteress herself cut off at 0630 for Andean fill tune on
quena and guitar. VG modulation; and splatter seems to be fixed, for
now?

9395, Oct 11 at 0629, this S9+10 WRMI, briefly R. Tirana opening
German, the long-standing automation mixup at end of 0600 English
half-hour, originally only on 7730 which is supposed to be back on,
but low-power and hardly audible. Then at 0631 it too plays the quena
tune like 9455, but without two receivers going, I can`t be sure
whether synchronized or separate playouts. I think there was a WRMI ID
first at 0630 from one or both. By 0634 both have gone to a male
soloist, sounds like hymn, in unknown language. However, now 9395 has
become way undermodulated while 9455 remains VG. Strangeness.

Latest from WRMI on FB circa 1930 Oct 11: ``Here is today's update on
hurricane restoration work here at WRMI. We don't have any more
frequencies back on the air today, but we did finish most of the
repair work on our line truck so that we can hopefully continue
repairing the transmission lines in the antenna field tomorrow. Our
next target is 15770 kHz to Europe (also heard in the Middle East and
North Africa). If all goes well, we could have this back on the air by
the end of this week or early next week. Meanwhile, our partners at
Pan American Broadcasting in California, which places programming on
all of our WRMI frequencies, told us they are doing "somersaults of
joy" as we get more and more frequencies back on the air! (See photos
below of our Pan American colleagues Robin Boggs and Elizabeth
Dubach.)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 11 at 0625 weakly audible still on this
fundamental. Did not manage to be awake after 0700 for 11835 check
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15232.3 USB, Oct 11 at 1453, 2-way in colloquial
Spanish, lots of numbers, maybe kilos of drugs, one of them chirping

S7/S9 and just barely modulated. Nor am I. One of them may be closer
to 15232.4, as I try to tune for `normal` voices (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** CUBA. 13700, Oct 10 at 1533, JBA carrier, maybe Bauta left exciter
on? Usually off by 1500. Nothing else listed on 13700 except CNR13 in
Uyghur from Lingshi 725 site until 1400 - but I never notice any QRM
to RHC. Meanwhile 11760 is S9/+10 with sufficient modulation, 15140
S7/S8 JBM. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 10 at 2147, no signal, no loss, of R. Cairo

S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, but better S7/9+10 on 11940 for S America;
15520 ME S5/S7; 11670 Af also S5/S7. After news, Justin will interview
someone about a music foundation; and intro a new series until Nov,
foreign movie reviews - but heard neither as I`m back to BBC Proms on
Sounds before they are all supposed to expire at 2259 (Glenn Hauser,

** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 10 at 2158, VOT English is on today with IS,
2200 usual opening, somewhat undermodulated, S9+55 into UTwente; but
it`s the final hour for BBC Proms on Sounds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE. I am now about a week behind in copying info from
`Ukraine: Security Issue`, and have decided not to resume. It is
rather depressing, and of course we are constantly bombarded by news
about the war otherwise. There was a rather lukewarm response to my
inquiry whether my reports were useful: from only three people. Best
approach if you are interested, is to devote no more than 9 minutes a
day to these yourself, via:
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/ua_security_issue
Maybe WRMI will eventually resume SWing them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2159 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 9 from 2000:35 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9/+15

** U S A. WRMI: Hurricane Restoration Update: [FB, c. 16 UT Oct 10]
``We have hit a snag in our transmission line repair effort. The
hydraulic system on our truck that lifts the telephone poles up has
stopped working, so our facility manager Pat (who is also a good
mechanic) is repairing that now. When that is finished, we will
continue with the repair of the antenna transmission lines. Rain is
also forecast, so we're running against time.``

``Llily Zichi : If it CAN be fixed, I’m confident Pat can do it.
Unfortunately, that truck is getting old. Maybe that’s a good thing
though. Old stuff CAN be fixed. Look at all the 1950s Detroit iron
running around the streets of Havana! The combo of old tech and
diligent mechanics can’t be beat! 😁``

Subject: WRMI 7730 kHz on air

Ladies and Gentlemen: Today at 1700 UTC we were able to get 7730 kHz
back on the air. It will be on 24 hours per day until further notice.
It is on low power at this point; we can't operate it at high power
yet. But at least it's back on the air.

Meantime, the hydraulic lift on our line truck has malfunctioned and
we have to get that repaired before we can continue the repair of the
transmission lines. We are working on that as I write this. Jeff
White, General Manager`` (direct, via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

7730, Oct 10 at 1926, JBA carrier into Athens GA SDR. Had been on a 44
degree antenna, unreparable, so what azimuth now? (gh)

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 10 at 0630, RV with music, S6/S8. Notably the
OSOB = only broadcast signal on band - if one define 41 m as 7200-7300
only.

11835, Oct 10 at 0701, talk in presumed Bislama, S8/9+10, having just
switched to 3945 in order to occupy this clear 3rd harmonic spot; zzz,
7890 = X2 not checked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. 15565, Oct 10 at 1538, Afro/Asian? talk, S7/S9 so one of
better signals on band. Keyword ``Francesco`` so it`s an
Italian-influenced language, i.e. Ethiopian. Yes: 1530-1600 is VR in
Amharic, direct from SMG site putting more signal than it should, off
the back; rather than long-path, I think; no echo (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
