** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, Sat Sept 19 at 1457, no signal direct of
course from LRA36, nor at Brasil SDR by 1506, despite RAE special
postponed to this date, 1500-2200 UT; meanwhile, Manuel Méndez
Lugo, Spain, informed us: ``ANTARCTICA, 15476, LRA 36, Radio Nacional

** U S A. Regarding the late Justice Ginsburg being treated as if she
were a Christian: among the wall-to-wall TV coverage, the crowd
spontaneously gathered outside the SCOTUS building broke into hymn,
`Amazing Grace`. This is one of the best-known Christian hymns, not
ecumenical, Judeo-Christian, from its very origins in a conversion.
https://www.learnreligions.com/amazing-grace-701274
However, the original lyrix do not mention J.C. at all, and thus could
be taken as more generic. But is it ever sung in synagogues? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA [non]. 600, VOA via R. Libertad, COLOMBIA: I have not
monitored since its première UT Sept 16, but Don Moore now reports
Sept 19:

``Colombia/Venezuela: There has been discussion in Cadena DX, the
Latin American Facebook group, on the VOA programs via Radio Libertad
600 kHz in Barranquilla, Colombia. Santiago San Gil in Barinas wrote
that normally Radio Libertad was received there with "acceptable
signals" but that since the programs began there has been significant
co-channel interference. Fernando Viloria in the coastal Venezuelan
state of Carabobo says he has been hearing an unlisted station calling
itself "Radio Verdad" and "La Emisora de la Alegría" on 600 kHz. The
station has not announced a location. Several DXers wrote of tuning
the Radio Libertad programs on the remote SDR in Bonaire. They report
it is putting in a good signal to Bonaire. (Don Moore)``

A great many Venezuelan radio stations have gone off the air, tnx to
government persecution and/or the economic situation. Was there ever a
600? Yes, first checking a WRTH 2014 at hand:

YVSW, 15 kW, R. Alto Llano, Sta Bárbara de Barinas. I wonder if SSG
remembers that one? In fact only one of two MW stations in that state
at that time.

YVSW also in WRTH 2005, when there was a second 600: YVQB, 10 kW,
Radio Sucre, Cumaná, Sucre, whose address was in a building called
Libertad.

In 2005 WRTH there were a number of stations around the country named
Radio Alegría, or Radio Fe y Alegría, probably a group or network. Do
not see any with Verdad in their names.

There may have been remnants of these outlets which could be pressed
into jamming disservice in short order; or any MW transmitter could
soon be retuned to 600. Connecting to a proper-wavelength antenna
could be quite another matter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

huxter resumes at 0250 citing Ezekiel XL et al. (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A. 7490, UT Sat Sept 19 at 0000, first monitoring webcast, WBCQ
has A&A conversing before the WTO theme plays for `AAAWWW`; almost
immediately interrupted by phone call from annoying Freddy, a good
excuse to tune out. Recheck at 0022, Freddy is just now being let go!
Whew. Allan then says he has been working on rebuilding #1
transmitter; the one donated by WRMI, just waiting for Tim Tron to
come up from Skowhegan and put the finishing tuneups on it. TT seems
putting off coming to Monticello, despite low COVID-19 rate there. I
think AW said or implied it`s the #3 transmitter which is currently on
7490, but also mentioned a #2. I wish we had a clear roster of all six
WBCQ SW transmitters, by number and which frequency they occupy. Has
the ex-WRMI unit hauled from FL last year, ever been on the air yet at
WBCQ? All except the 500 kW, i.e. ``classic WBCQ`` have to be rewired
for single-phase power. At 0030 A&A get into discussing conspiracy
theories, this week coming off a bit milder. Now I check the other
frequencies at Rochester remotes: 5130 is S7-S8; 3265 nothing; 6159.9
is S9; 7490 no signal! 9330 WLCR in Portuguese is S6-S7. ``Biden can`t
win since he`s partially demented``. O yeah? 0050 about an hour late,
word arrives that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has died. On his best
behavior AW does not denounce her as a socialist/communist, but ``may
she be reunited with our lord and savior in heaven; RIP``. Wait a
minute, she`s Jewish! But so was AW, originally, so he should know the
difference. Before they finish at 0100, I check Alexandria VA SDR for
7490 and it`s OK there, S9+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6970-AM, Sept 19 at 0238, JBA carrier while I am still
getting Ballsmacker on much stronger 6960; another pirate? None
reported in HFU but is also a Sound of Hope frequency, so maybe CNR1
jamming but would have to be from far west China possibly to
propagate. Seems there has also been a mixing product reported here,
Cuba? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 371-MCW kHz, Sept 18 at 0619 UT, JBA NDB dash and GW i.e.:
``371 GW CAN QC KUUJJUARAPIK 2000 55 17 5 -77 45 5`` - dxinfocentre.
A new one on me; wow, what a name! I wonder if the French Canadians
find it any more daunting than the English?

``Kuujjuarapik - Village in Québec, Canada --- Kuujjuarapik is the
southernmost northern village at the mouth of the Great Whale River on
the coast of Hudson Bay in Nunavik, Quebec, Canada. Almost 1000
people, mostly Cree, live in the adjacent village of Whapmagoostui.
The community is only accessible by air, Kuujjuarapik Airport and, in
late summer, by boat. Wikipedia`` Also seems the AP abbr is YGW, but
not in this callsign, no Y; just GW as in Great Whale. Each DX log a
potential learning experience. BTW, I do skip over a number of the
``regular`` beacons, not relogging them every time, but OTOH not
non-logging them either, once heard once (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Portuguese, 2030 Arabic. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUINEA [and non]. 9650, Sept 18 at 2040, JBA carrier, could it be
RTG? Unheard for quite a while, maybe QRP or is its only SW frequency
kaput? It was reported Aug 13 at 1710 by DJM in the British DX Club.

Aoki/NDXC shows VOK in Japanese does not start 9650 until 2100. Use it
or lose it: 9650 is also one of the frequencies planned for WIPE, the
DRM/HF trading crypto pending in NJ, as per the drmnainfo blog:

``Frequencies are stated to be 9650, 11850, 13720 and 15450 kHz. Mode
is listed as DRM with emission designator 10K0G7W (which is consistent
with 10 kHz DRM).`` Depending on the timing, other WIPE frequencies
could conflict with Romania, Turkey, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Area tropo enhancement blob in NW OK up to Level 4, not
really extending to OKC, but only DX signal decoding via my broken

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Sept 17 past 0500, anonymous missionary station is
still going with M&W dialog, VG at Bonaire SDR. Also audible at 0622
direct S6-S7 with talk. Manuel Méndez. Lugo, Spain, points out:

``Hi, Glenn, despite the religious station on 4940 mentioning a lot of
times "Colombia", and it has programs like "Lecciones de la Historia
Colombiana", always announcing UT -4 time, instead of UT -5. Years ago
a Venezuelan station transmitted on 4940 kHz, Radio Amazonas, Puerto
Ayacucho. It is possible this religious station is using the Radio
Amazonas transmitter? The religious station is heard every day here in
Reinante, Lugo, North West of Spain with weak to very weak signal.
This weekend I will be in Friol and there I will have better
conditions to hear it. Best 73,s``

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Sept 16 before 2400 UT, anonymous missionary
station is on with good signal into TWR Bonaire SDR, so since no one
else is doing it, I try TDoA direxion-finding for the first time. I am
not impressed, but maybe I am insufficiently expert in application. To
get to it, find TDoA under extensions on the player. Get the map
zoomed appropriately. Enter up to six SDRs to employ. Run it as each
tries GPS for one minute. Then algorithm gets to work.

First try comes up with -10.50, -134.50, i.e. somewhere in the S
Pacific; I think not. It seems I can`t use Bonaire itself since that
one of the three SDRs for TDoA is ``all busy`` including by me.
Another try with Vilhena western Brasil participating, comes up with
12.40, -64.60 which is Caribbean between Grenada and Curacao; Getting
warm??

Bogotá SDR is receiving a poor signal on 4940, so now I start from
there, and can bring up three closest TWRs, Bonaire, Boa Vista and DR
to do the TDoA. At 2350 these come up with 3.80, -65.60, which is
Marahuaca National Park, Amazonas, in remote S Central Venezuela! This
might be believable, not too far from Boa Vista, Brasil. But almost an
hour later at 0045 UT Sept 16, I retry with exactly same parameters
still entered, and this time it finds ``most likely`` 18.60, -63.80
which is between BVI and Anguilla.

I`m afraid Timed-Delay-of-Arrival is so unreliable,
self-contradictory, as to be useless. Anyhow, none of these tries came
up with anywhere inside Colombia. For giggles, I finally enter some
known frequencies as picked up in Bogotá: 5800 WRMI it places at 9.40,
-70.80, in Trujillo, Venezuela! 9955 WRMI at 16.20, -71.00, asea south
of DR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sept 16 at 1428, RHC is S9+10 but extremely suptorted
as usual, ruining the music of `Sonido Cubano`; // 15230 is only
S5-S6, undermodulated but not distorted; // 13700 is loud and clear,
lacking spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 7, KOCO-TV ``5``, Sept 16 at 2205 UT, surprised to
find besides local news on 5-1, its only extra channel, 5-2 is running
an acting-president Drumpf, Liar-in-Chief press conference apparently
live, instead of MeTV which per onscreen guide is supposed to be in
The Flintstones; o, if only! KOCO is Hearst-owned. Have not noticed
them putting any other live or Breaking ``news`` on 5-2 except for an
extra hour-early local news at 9 pm CT, before 5-1 does so at 10 pm
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Wed Sept 16 at 2215, VOT and NSS RTTY add up to
S9/+20, but already in music fill, no Letterbox; 2219 ID and more
music. Cannot notch out the RTTY CCI, but I can notch out the VOT
carrier itself. Something`s always awry at Ankara, i.e. in frequency
management; and programming failures (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 395-MCW kHz, Sept 16 at 1421 UT, ND beacon CA, which is 25
watts from Newton - Harvs KS north of Wichita; still tuned here after
YL from Manitoba 8 hours earlier; not then, but now there is very weak
CCI, probably from ULS, 395, Ulysses in western KS (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
