** BRAZIL. Correxion: error in one of my measurements, Rádio Voz
Missionária, had it on 5939.806 instead of 5939.506; which I rechecked
after seeing wb`s report of 5939.517 the next day at 2253; fixed:

5939.506, Aug 11 at 0635, JBA carrier in 5935 WWCR splash, but no
problem from 5945 NZ, no doubt also RVM, always off-frequency. Altho a
few other ZYs are reported active on 6, 9 and 11 MHz bands, these are
the only ones detected at this late/early hour,'

Also one of my unIDs, on 6134.882, Aug 12 at 0614, he says is R.
Aparecida, 6134.883 rather than R. Santa Cruz, Bolivia at 2258 Aug 12,
via remote in Massachusetts. Anyhow our independent measurements now
match nicely within a few Hz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey Aug 13 at 1355-1400: 13130 S7-S9; 12850;
12230 S3-S6; 12210; 11170, 11150, 11120, 11100, 10920, 10820 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) See also SAUDI ARABIA

** EAST TURKISTAN. 15590, Aug 13 at 1432, English at S8-S9, i.e. CRI
at 1200-1500, via Urumqi, land of ChiCom persecution of Uighurs. See
also SA`UDI ARABIA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 341-MCW kHz, Aug 13 at 1354 UT in full daytime,
NDB in Enid, EI is JBA, while OIN Oberlin KS is JJBBA underneath
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 17895, Aug 13 at 1431, JBA carrier; and 17615+ JBA
modulation, no doubt SBC; the latter later at 1502 measured on
17615.067 with Qur`an. Slight improvement in conditions on usually
deadband; but no 17705. Aoki shows 17895 & 17705 both until 1457,
17615 until 1557. 17895 not measured but close, unlike 17615+.

No 17775 KVOH yet; at 1432 the only other trace a JBA on 17690 where
VOA Tibetan is scheduled this hour only via Lampertheim, so probably
hearing CNR1 jammer instead, spoiling the Sa`udis` claim to OSOB
status, just SSOB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also EAST TURKISTAN

** U S A. 7505, August 14 at 0134, WRNO is still AWOL (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11530, Aug 14 at 0138 rather strong open carrier goes
off quickly, leaving a JBA carrier. Three stations, four sites ever
use this, none listed at this hour: Cuban spy numbers, Bejucal; Denge
Welat via France or Pridnestrovye; and its Turkish jammer --- is that
still active? Not reported lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0411 UT August 14

** CUBA [and non]. 5990, 6000, 9535, 9640, 11790, 11800, 11810, 11980,
13650, 15230, 15730, Aug 12 at 2354, all these RHC or CRI relay
frequencies are missing, and not all from same transmitter site. Still
on are: 11950 with Mesa Redonda diversion; 11760 overmodulated and
distorted mainstream music; 11670 S9+20 suptorted but no spurs; 13740
S9+10/20. Also a JBA carrier on 13650 presumably Japan. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba/RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Aug 13 at 0054, R. Progreso back in whack with music
modulation in AM mode rather than noise blob; vs some CODAR swishes,
checked at Rochester SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2046 monitoring: confirmed Wed Aug 12 from
2100:28 on WBCQ 7490, JBA here but VG S9/+10 at Rochester NY SDR.

Also confirmed UT Thu Aug 13 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, good S6-S7 at
Rochester.

Next WOR 2047 should be ready early UT Fri Aug 14 for first airing at
2200 on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, UT Thu Aug 13 at 0001, WRMI with Radio Emma Toc
starting their first request show, with some pulse jamming, too soon
after the Radio Libertad hour; also heard R.E.T. Tue Aug 11 closing by
2300 on 9955 --- but that`s scheduled as one hour from 2200, while
Thursday it`s 0000-0030 only. Only other time is UT Mon 0100-0200 on
9455 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Aug 12 at 2341, S9+20 open carrier, still at 2410 and
2427 chex, no doubt WRNO about to make a comeback after about a month
AWOL. Maybe to resume regular schedule of 0100-0400? That was direct
but after 0100 Aug 13 I`m getting no signal at Rochester (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0136 UT August 13

** CANADA. 61.26 MHz, August 12 from before 0300 UT, this site
http://www.livemeteors.com/
is live-monitoring frequency for meteor-scatter pings at the annual
peak of the Perseid shower; explains that from the Wash DC area a yagi
is aimed at Timmins, Ontario, where there still exists a full-power
analog TV station, on channel A3, video offset-plus, i.e. 100 kW
CITO-TV per W9WI.com. I have indeed heard a few pings in a few
minutes. It also warns that prolonged pings would be something else,
and from 0405 I am getting some of those which I suspect are
MS-induced sporadic E probably from same station. It seems that on the
KiwiSDR roster there are NONE tuning the FM band, or any VHF from 30
to 108 MHz. Chris Mackerell in NZ explains that those SDRs are not
designed to do so. A check of our northern sky found it clear for a
change but too much Enid light pollution and mosquitoes to watch it
very long. 73, (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 11120, Aug 12 at 1417, CNR1 jammer JBA, the only one now,
none detected WOOB in the 14s, 13s, 12s (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Aug 12 at *0029 just as I tune in via Virginia KiwiSDR,
noise blob cuts on air covering 4760-4770, evidence that this mess is
just the Radio Progreso transmitter as scheduled but totally out of
whack: no trace of program modulation. Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba. It does not sound like DRM however, and the SDR does not
recognize or decode it as such; in fact, if you mash DRM you get a
roster of known DRM transmissions, maybe not the current frequency.

Hey, at this very time, Arnie should be in AM on RHC for the mit-week
[sic] edition of `DXers Unlimited`, so he could explain it! But he
won`t as he never deals with any of countless Cuban technical SNAFUs;
instead it`s all about ham DX for the last few minutes of his show.
6000 is suptorted [not ``supported`` as one editor ``corrected`` a
previous mention: I explain again that I coined that word to combine
suppressed and distorted, which is just what RHC and some other
stations provide] while 6145 is sufficient. Meanwhile 5025 Rebelde is
undermodulated but readable and not distorted. The 4765 blob is still
same around 0130, and by 0400 is off, again matching Progreso
scheduling. Mark Coady first reported this anomaly on August 9 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Aug 12 at 0052, RHC Spanish is suptorted on it #1
legacy frequency, 11800 undermodulated, and 11670 off. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Aug 12 at 0612, ORTM with good S9/+10 signal and even
good modulation, in language maybe Bambara, rooster-crow just before
today`s Bamako sunrise of 0620; no ACI from 6000 Cuba already off
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515-MCW kHz, Aug 12 at 1406 UT, NDB PN in Ponca City is
off; 341-MCW, EI in Enid is on now; earlier at 0623 I could not make
it out vs HSNL, but traces of OIN in KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 600 kHz, Aug 12 at 0618 UT, `Coast to Coast AM` from a
strong station and a weaker one echoing. WMT Cedar Rapids, Iowa, lost
tower during the derecho, and was reported off the air; it`s normally
dominant here, lobe aiming thisaway but does not quite make it, days.

https://600wmtradio.iheart.com/content/2020-08-11-legendary-am-600-wmt-radio-cedar-rapids-off-air-after-high-wind-storm/
The other listed C2CAM 600 affiliates in last year`s NRC AM Log are
KCOL in CO, KTBB in TX and WREC in TN, all of which could also be
heard here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6134.882, Aug 12 at 0614, JBA signal in the variable
area where could be either R. Aparecida, Brasil, or Radio Santa Cruz,
Bolivia, more likely the former altho it is sometimes on the plus side
about 6135.2; normally nonesuch at this nightpart (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 1639 UT August 12

** BRAZIL. 9630.338, Aug 11 at 0631, JBA off-frequency, no doubt R.
Aparecida; 11856v not audible now or ever any more. Also:

9664.839, Aug 11 at 0632, music S2-S4, no doubt R. Voz Missionária.
Have not heard these 31ms overnight for some time, and no 9819v.

5939.806, Aug 11 at 0635, JBA carrier in 5935 WWCR splash, but no
problem from 5945 NZ, no doubt also RVM, always off-frequency. Altho a
few other ZYs are reported active on 6, 9 and 11 MHz bands, these are
the only ones detected at this late/early hour (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey Aug 11 at 1413-1418: None in the 16s, 14s
or 12s but at least JBA on 13130, 11460, 11440, 11170, 11150, 11120,
10920 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GREECE. A reply on the WOR iog to my report that VOG was missing
from 9420 early UT August 9:

``Voice of Greece could have been temporarily off the air due to some
devastating thunderstorms and flash flooding in the area of their
transmitter site located in Vathi Voiotia, Greece. The nearby island
of Evia across the straight (South Euobean Gulf) to the northeast of
their transmitter site seems to have been worse hit...

kHz (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Aug 11 at 0646, JBA carrier in 5025 Cuba
splash, presumed SIBC, about all one could expect so early, but have
not been getting even this around 0600 chex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey Aug 10 at 1348-1356; I am in too big a
hurry before breakfast to note S readings; some are sufficient, some
are JBA carriers in presumed spots: none in the 16s; 15165 with fast
SAH CCI, 15130, 14980, 14920, 14850, 13835, 13630-rare/new; 12850,
12190; inband 25m skipped; 11460, 11150, 10920, 10870; 9s not checked
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Aug 10 at 0550, RHC English check during music: this
one is S9+10/20 but suptorted; 6100 is S9+20/30 with less modulation
and less distortion; 6145 S9+10/20 with more modulation, less
distortion; while 5040 is S9+20/30 and suptorted. On the average,
overall, I suppose, a net improvement for now. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. (9830), as reported before, VOT English was missing from
the Wed Aug 5 at 2200 broadcast, so no `Letterbox` to be heard circa
2215; not until UT Aug 10 do I get around to checking the podcasts at
radio360.eu, only to find that Aug 5 is also missing there! But the
mailbag repeats on Saturdays so I listen to the Aug 8 one, to find it
at :13 into, and indeed a new one a week after previous, not a 2-week
delay, for the first reply is to Italy dated Aug 4; then India,
Algeria; Tampa FL --- where our 42-year-old host visited when he was
20 after Florence AL and New Orleans LA; India, Bahrain, but already
``out of time`` finishing after only 8 minutes at :21, and into music,
very enjoyable Turkish songs which play continuously past :46, so what
happened to all the other features? Something`s always awry at Ankara
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 18154-USB, Aug 10 at 1425, the OSOB is KD8BO, concluding
contact with an inaudible K0: ``KD8BO USA flag USA, Clarence L Jobe,
Sr, New Paris, OH 45347 USA``. This encourages me to check 10 MHz
higher:

28298-CW, Aug 10 at 1452, beacon K5TLL/B, relog: ``28.298 K5TLL C
HATTIESBURG, MISSISSIPPI # 25W, VERTICAL New Freq 14 Dec 08``
There is another weaker I can`t read within one kHz.

28254.5-CW, Aug 10 at 1501, VVV VVV DE K4JEE/B thrice ... LOUISVILLE:
``28.2545 K4JEE C LOUISVILLE, KENTUCKY # 5W, VERTICAL New 6 Nov 11``
This one is strongest of the lot, no problem copying

28209-CW, Aug 10 at 1506-1514, JBA, N8##L, can`t copy full call but
alternates at fast and slow WPM, surely this heard before:
``28.2088 N8PVL I LIVONIA, MICHIGAN # 5W, VERTICAL new 12 Feb 2011``

28281-CW, Aug 10 at 1507, DE W8EH and a grid square, no VVV preceding,
another one heard before as newies are seldom:
``28.281 W8EH C MIDDLETOWN OHIO # 8W, GP VERTICAL``

But no MUF into FM band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2046 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday August 10 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG here direct.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 10 at 0130 & 0230 on WRMI 7780, both VG
S9+10/20 at UTwente; also WRN webcast at 0130.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 10 starting at 0314 on Area 51 webcast of

Also confirmed Mon Aug 10 from a few seconds before 1801 in IRRS 7290
Bulgaria? via UTwente SDR, VG S8/S9+10 but with perpetual warble from

tune-in; <1759 JIP some unknown talkshow; <1800 chop for IRRS ID and
PO Box Milano, not a sign-on, by Italian accent for a change; very
quick FSN headlines and WOR which continues intact for first several

** U S A. 1210, August 10 at 0558 UT, a periodic but vain check for 50
kW daytimer WJNL in Michigan cheating again; instead I hear a mix of
Spanish mentions of McAllen, Texas, and Coast-to-Coast-AM. Per last
year`s NRC AM Log, only 1210 affil is WPHT Philadelphia, while the SS
is certainly KUBR San Juan, Tejas in the RGV; right now I am not
hearing KGYN OK either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4765, Aug 10 at 0433, noise blob but not decoding as DRM
