(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, July 17 at 2314, WBCQ-6 is still off but there is that
curious JBA carrier on 9333; no signals on 5130 or 6160v, only noisy
7490v, as I am assessing the situation in hour prior to AAAWWW.

Area 51 webcast at 2357 mentions ``slack`` several times, as in `Hour
of` ? And about anal-retentiveness.

7490 webcast I switch to at 0000 UT Sat July 18 just as WTO theme is
starting; by 0003 A&A opening as he always helps his sweetheart to
adjust her microphonium; and right into politix which I don`t need to
hear.

At 0004 recheck the A51 webcast and find it also running AAAWWW but
several seconds delayed. Spotchex follow: at 0015 A51 is playing a
song, so no longer with AAAWWW, where the lovebirds are still talking
on 7490 webcast. At 0018 annoying Freddie has called; altho he has
several Black friends, he doesn`t like this BLM stuff.

0023 back on A51, music, what is this? DJ talking about formerly on
WZAK in Canton OH, after a bunch of country/drinking songs.

0048 on 7490 webcast, AW mentions ``9330 is down, with *another*
transmitter problem``, but no further details, not now anyway.

At 0051, while AW is trying to read e-mail, Freddie is still on the
phone interrupting with signal reports, including 5130 as 20 over S9,
and as if AAAWWW is axually on it, so I check SW frequencies here:

At 0054, 5130 is buried in noise but I can tell it is AAAWWW, not the
music on the A51 webcast. 6160- is also audible, weaker than 7490.

0100, 7490 webcast, AAAWWW wraps up just in time for Hal Turner
theme.

0217, A51 webcast is still running with music so I listen again for a
while. DJ says this show is all-beer songs and back-announces a number
of titles; in a six-week theme series, last week wine, next week
marijuana, so put in your requests now to Zombo`s Record Party on FB,
but this show is pre-recorded not live.

IIRC, Zombo has appeared on WBCQ before, and he does mention WBCQ
among other stations, but his name is not to be found on the WBCQ
website schedule, nor even the Archive. Was on WZAK Canton at 4 am;
also had been on WAPS; and did one --- only one --- show for KAOS on
the west coast; finally ``This is WRCT 88.3, Zombo In Your Brain``.
That`s a free-form station in Pittsburgh PA, and such a show is
scheduled Fridays 10 am-1 pm EDT = 14-17 UT:

** BULGARIA. 7290, July 17 at 1827, I check out how IRRS hour in
English is doing via Secretbrod, into UTwente SDR: dead air! except
for 7291 warble, 7280 splash and humroar on own carrier; but song
modulation cuts on once a minute for 5-10 seconds at 1827, 1828, 1829,
1830, 1831, 1832 --- enough of that; time for lunch. 1859 recheck
still DA, but 1900 brief ID and off. What programming was defeated?
Glad it would not have been WOR. Tried to check website,

S2-S4 Chinese, 10960 JBA.

At 1346: 9180 Chinese; stronger 9260 S5-S7 this one with fast SAH from
victim, SOH? also 9215 JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Sporadic E MUFs are mostly tantalizingly just below 88 MHz
FMBC band. Unfortunately, I don`t have a decent lowband TV Ch 2-6
antenna and rotor, so I am missing DTVDX and maybe some analog left
from Latin or Canadian America; 6 meters may be open too, but a few
chex for beacons there have not succeeded, as all I have is my
longwire mainly for HF and MF. That leaves the 10m hambeaconband,
after first finding CB such as 27025 hopping with hetty pileups:

28217.5, July 17 at 1419, VVV DE K4PAR/B, and fades. WJ5O shows:

PROPAGATION BEACON "ON AIR"

One of the many things I do to help the amateur radio hobby is to
operate and maintain a "propagation beacon" station using a FCC
approved Amateur HF Transmitter for [CW].

There are many such stations located around the world that are
operated by other amateur radio operators. Simply stated: A
propagation beacon station constantly transmits a signal using morse
code (CW) on a specific frequency. If an amateur radio operator or
short wave listener hears a beacon coming from another part of the
world it usually means that they can either hear, or in the case of an
amateur radio operator talk to, stations operating from the same area
as the beacon they monitored.

Join in on the fun of running a propagation beacon.

** U S A. 9330, July 17 at 0639, WLCR via WBCQ-6 is OFF again. (No
9333 carrier either now); still off at 1345. What`s wrong? Still
nothing about it from AW twits, other than vague comment latest:

``Allan Weiner @AllanWBCQ · Jul 16 --- Another day of radio work here
at the shortwaves station WBCQ. From antenna maintenance to
transmitter repair. From roof work to field mowing there’s always much
to do at WBCQ. 9330/7490/6160/5130khz are the free speech spots on
your dial. Fixing the 780khz AM transmitter.``

Is he back in ME now or still in FL? Can`t tell. Maybe he will impart
some info on tonight`s AAAWWW; please monitor, 00-01 UT Sat on 7490+
and maybe some of the others, or webcasts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Fri July 17 at 1348, WRMI-3, `Viva Miami` --- this
time it`s really in Spanish, Jeff & Thaïs chatting about Florida, a
visit to almost vacant Orlando; big turtles on the beaches; and
acknowledging reception reports, some from non-SS countries, such as
Japón; did they really write in Spanish? Postal address remains
6-figure box in Miami; I`d think that would be inconvenient for the
Okeechobeeans to check.

Once again, 9955 does not go off* at 1400 but continues with `Freedom
Synergy Radio`, first item about Hong Kong situation, in English;
still going at 1417 but off after 1430. However, System B sked shows
FSN webcast only for a full hour at 1400-1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

OK, KS, July 17 at 1500 UT, and I bandscan starting at 1525: most open
UHF channels, 20-36 have at least a Bad signal and several of the OKC
channels are not decoding due to DX QRM. Also RF ch 6 Bad despite no

Laff; 31-5 Court.

** U S A. 9330, July 17 at 0220, no signal from WLCR via WBCQ-6; but
there is an S5-S8 open carrier on 9333.0. I`ve heard that before, only
when WBCQ is absent, never a detectable het when it`s on, making me
think the two are somehow related. 7490+v still on nominally (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, July 16 circa 2000, WEWN English is still AWOL after

** CUBA. 13650, July 15 at 2321, suptorted Chinese music fill instead
of scheduled CRI Portuguese relay. On July 13, Rick Barton in AZ
caught this transmission carrying CRI English instead; July 14 back to
the usual. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, July 16 at 0020, RHC Spanish at S9+10/20 but JBM,
better than 11800 dead air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6100, UT Wed July 15 at 0626, RHC `DXers Unlimited` final
repeat is just starting as I tune by, Arnie says for next 10 minutes
but really lasts only until 0633; reminiscing about his first ham call
once the Commies were in power, granted in October 1959, CM2DL, altho
he had been allowed to operate a friend`s ham station before then,
Elmer? I believe that CM- prefices were/are for novices; eventually
became CO2KK, which should not be pronounced in Spanish unless with
`kilo` fonetix. His slurred speech is not too disturbing today. Also
on 6145 but not much on 12200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, 9690-, 11770-, 15120, July 15 at 0620, VON cannot

** TURKEY. 9830, July 15 at 2158, VOT already on with IS and English
ID, S7-S9 but undermodulated, 2200 timesignal two seconds late, so
what good is it? Don`t you believe; sign on delayed or lacking
modulation at first. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn

an unannounced appendage of paltry translator K277CK, which is
*supposed* to be secondary to the primary AM license. WTFDA Database
shows a different slogan, ``The Mixx AM 1280 and K277CK 103.3``. NRC
AM Log of last year showed ``The Mixx 103.3`` with CLR = classic rock
format: does that correlate completely with slogan I heard? Years ago
it was in AM stereo but I can`t tell now; NRC does not show it as $ .
While we`re at it, look at the few more AM stations around here with
at least mostly music format and a decent daytime groundwave signal:

780, KSPI Stillwater OK, rock, ``Pete 94.3``, named for OSU mascot
Pistol Pete, not exactly politically correct altho he`s a Cowboy.
Branded for a translator of course as the real KSPI-FM is separate on
93.9.

860, KKOW Pittsburg KS, C&W/polka, also IDs, secondarily! as 97.5 in
Joplin (MO) --- per WTFDA FM Database, that`s really K248DR, CoL
Warsaw MO, not Joplin. NRC AM Log did not show any FM. The real
KKOW-FM is separate, 96.9 in Pittsburg. Not with an -h.

Wait a minute: Warsaw is nowhere near Joplin, with 250 watts could not
possibly serve that city; Warsaw is 101 miles to the NE, closer to
Sedalia than Springfield, let alone Joplin. FCC FM Query has no such
station in Warsaw, nor that callsign anywhere. It does have a
different 97.5 translator in Joplin, K258BF without saying what it
translates!

But wait another minute: 97.5 is channel 248, not 258, so call as
displayed by FCC, K258BF is wrong. Possibly it was a move-in from
Warsaw? 258 would have been 99.5. Proper new callsigns for translators
changing frequency/city often lag behind the moves. A lot of
tail-wag-the-dog, AM-gotta-be-on-FM translator acquisitions are
accomplished by moving an existing license in from somewhere else
rather than starting from scratch.

900, KSGL Wichita KS, part NOStalgia, part gospel huxterism; it`s
IBOC, but too weak to hear much buzz aside 900 here.

1070, KFTI Wichita KS, C&W, listed by NRC as $ tereo and I know it used
to be; not listed for being significantly off-frequency-minus; as of
last October, mwoffsets had it on 1069.9773 --- no problem in the
daytime here, but at night its LAH is an annoyance to KNX et al.

1600, KUSH Cushing OK, Americana and talk. My favorite among the
bunch. With 5 kW ND daytime, radio-locator shows Enid, OKC and Tulsa
are all just beyond the distant contour but well within the fringe.

Everything else on daytime MW here is talk of some sort in English or
Spanish. I am not aware of any ``liberal`` or ``progressive``
stations. Gospel huxters of course may include some religious music
