** ALASKA [and non]. 7355, May 1 at 1232, gospel music from KNLS
English hour, QRM from pulse-jamming. When will stations ever learn
never to go on a frequency which has ever been jammed by Cuba, at the
same or any time? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRIA. 15440, May 1 at 1420, JBA signal in uncertain language:
listed as AWR in Urdu via Moosbrunn (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. 332-MCW kHz, May 1 at 0601 UT, ND beacon QT,
which is 1000 watts from Thunder Bay, Ont., tho I wasn`t quite sure
whether it was QE; atop my nearby IC, 400 watts at Wichita - PicnIC,
Kansas, usually audible by itself. Different pitches help to
differentiate them. Tonight lightning storms are faraway around the
Bahamas and scattered spots in western USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 11620, May 1 at 1241, song and Japanese talk, S7-S4. It`s
CRI via Xianyang site. I would have expected India on this frequency,
scheduled Tibetan service jammed, but currently most AIR external
services locked down (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. 11825, May 1 at 1237, Firedrake jamming atop
something in English, just clips amid Chinese translation on VOA via
THAILAND this hour; adding up to S9+10/20. Seems there is more FD and
less CNR1 jamming these days (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. 9660, May 1 at 1244, echoing Chinese plus
Firedrake, vs Radio Taiwan International. The echo presumably two CNR1
signals. Aoki now shows sites for some of these: Fuzhou.

9680, May 1 at 1245, echoing Chinese only here, CNR1 jamming via
Kunming vs another RTI Chinese frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 7350, May 1 at 1251, RHC again here instead of 7340, not only
MayDay but RHC anniversary: heartfelt renditions of ``The
Internationale`` first in Spanish, then in Brasilian.

There are many different lyrix but in English I prefer Billy Bragg`s.
Such idealism, yet ruined in application by Commies including Cubans:

https://folkworks.org/archives/2191-everything-but/46676-pete-seeger-the-internationale
Listen to and read three of them there.

Then testimonials to RHC, 1256 someone lauds from Sancti Spíritus, //
15230 et al.

However, Wolfgang Büschel reported a few minutes later: ``Every day, a
different schedule of the Radio Habana shortwave organization, these
days: At 1318 UT on May 1st, RHC Bejucal in Spanish on 7340 kHz (not
7350 as on April 29 and 30). 73 wb df5sx`` --- so they switched around
1300? Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** HONG KONG [non]. 9400, May 1 at 1248, one Chinese signal of S3-S5,
Liangyou 1 Radio via FEBC PHILIPPINES; unlike yesterday at 1313 when
there was a pileup of more Chinese, presumably jammers (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 251-MCW kHz, May 1 at 0607, ND beacon, AM, which is 100
watts at Amarillo TX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 257-MCW kHz, May 1 at 0605 UT, NDB: FWC which is 25 watts
from Fairfield, Wayne County; that`s between Mt Vernon and Mt Carmel
in SE Illinois. I was tuned to 255-USB in another check for my nearby
AWOL SW in Stillwater OK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 326-MCW kHz, May 1 at 0602 UT, NDB MA which is 400 watts at
MidlAnd, Texas. I was tuned to 324-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7212-LSB, May 1 at 0550, YL voice calling CQ CQ CQ over and
over in presumed recording, each item thrice: K7VAP. QRZ.com shows:

** U S A. 1540-, May 1 at 1208 UT, LAH against KXEL? from SSE/NNW
off-frequency station I am sure is KGBC Galveston TX, as IDed several
times before; but het is not always there, sometimes on-frequency; or
off the air? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN [non]. 9610, May 1 at 1242, other-worldly song and
religious Russian talk. This semihour only, it`s VR via USAGM, Tinang,
PHILIPPINES, violating Separation of Church and State (In case you
think I exaggerate, the USG should not be favoring any religion over
another. If it`s OK to make a relay deal with the Catholix, any other
ilk could expect/demand the same privilege! Why not Brother Scare via
Greenville?!) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1350+, May 1 at 1206 UT, somestation far enough
off+frequency to make a LAH - low audible het, with dominant from NE,
presumably KRNT Des Moines; but this one loops roughly SE/NW: two most
likely culprits are KCOX Jasper TX and WWWL New Orleans LA, both with
5 kW day power. But 5+ years ago in mwoffsetts, KWWL was very slightly
on the minus side, KCOX unknown (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1420+, May 1 at 1207 UT, someotherstation far enough
off+frequency to make a LAH with other 1420s, also looping roughly
SE/NW like 1350. Too many possibilities: closest KFYN Bonham TX; KBHS
Hot Springs AR; KPEL Lafayette LA; WQBC Vicksburg MS. Maybe we can
rule out KBHS which 1+ year ago was 3.5 Hz low (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2029 UT May 1, 2020

** CHINA. 9360, S6-S8 and 9970, S6-S7, April 30 at 1753 past 1800
without ID or any break, past 1818, both Firedragon jamming against
nothing else audible but listed RFA in Mandarin via Kuwait and Saipan
respectively. Rather surprised to be getting this around noon here. No
sign of any others above or below this band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD
OF RADIO 2032)

** CUBA [and non]. 7350, April 30 at 1309, RHC Spanish is S4-S6 and
undermodulated, ex-7340. Evidently moved because of someAsian on 7340;
seems like Chinese, but Aoki shows the only at this hour is National
Unity Radio, clandestine toward North Korea from Tajikistan site; as
long as AIR Mumbai be inactive. 9535 RHC is also on at 1314 check
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2032)

** CUBA. 13740 // 13700, April 30 at 1315, RHC on these two today but
no spurblobs; rather very weak leapfrogs on 13660 & 13780. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11790 & 11810, May 1 at 0019, RHC JBA parasitic carriers to
new 11800, so that proves they are the ex-11850 transmitter, ex-11840
always with the plus/minus 10 kHz sputnix. Something continues wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9340, May 1 at 0020, RHC is gone again after appearing on
this new frequency yesterday. Now 9535 and 9640 are still on.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11700 and 13740, onetime/sometime RHC frequencies are also off, May 1
at 0021. Wolfgang Bueschel notes new 15230 carries some Portuguese, so
that makes it ex-11700.

So a full survey of active Cuban SW frequencies, including CRI relays,
circa 0025 May 1, finds: 15730, 15230, 15120, 11760, 11670, 9640,
9535, 6145, 6060, 6000, 5990, 5040, 5025 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, May 1 at *0030 sharp, carrier on from Radio Progreso,
but like last night, another fiasco, no modulation and keeps cutting
off and on after nominal sign-on time: 0033* off, *0036:35 back on and
off, *0040:35 on and off again; 0050 still off, so enough of that, but
by 0155 recheck it`s staying on with musical modulation. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** HONG KONG [non]. 9400, April 30 at 1313, heavy collision, at least
one in Chinese, fast SAH, another in classical music, and maybe a
third station. I figured it must be SOH or Taiwan or RFA piled upon by
ChiCom jammers, but Aoki and EiBi show the only station is Radio
Liangyou 1, via FEBC Iba site, PHILIPPINES at 1030-1400. It doesn`t
rate an entry in WRTH, just another Chinese broadcast of FEBC. But
originating in Hong Kong, does it have a political agenda beyond mere
evangelism, to merit jamming? The only other 9400 partially listed at
this hour is Brother Hystairical via Bulgaria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH. 9095, April 18 at 1818, Korean at S7-S9, i.e. this
week`s jumparound frequency of Echo of Hope, clandestine for the
north. I often detect a carrier at many times on 9095, 9100 or 9105,
but rarely this good. 9 MHz must be in a sweet spot for reception from
E Asia, cf. Firedragon jammers from China. EiBi shows VOH not on the
air at this hour, but Aoki does (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9, April 30 at 0614, S9-S6 of dead air from VON.
Well, that`s something --- but not really better than nothing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6159.917V, May 1 at 0158, this WBCQ is on with Hal Turner
spelling out his NJ address, and asking for foreign currency
contributions; frequency wavering slightly as I try to measure it;
also on // 5130 and 7490.04v; presumably also on WRMI 9455, but over
by the time I check at 0159 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0411 UT May 1

** CUBA. 13740, April 29 at 1334, RHC back on here instead of 13780:
they can`t decide which one to keep. // 13700 as usual, and it`s the
one also producing extremely distorted spurblobs circa 13637 and
13763. This time no readable program audio on them in SSB, AM or FM
reception modes. 1424 check, 13700 still on, spurs off and 13740 off.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15730, April 30 at 0013, RHC on and propagating, but
suptorted with cutouts, French not // 5040 Kriyol. Something`s always
wrong at RHC.

15230, April 30 at 0013, RHC in Spanish! This frequency has been
running only in the mornings, 13-15 per Eibi, 11-15 per Aoki/NDXC.
This is only the start of various new frequencies/times now heard:

11800, April 30 at 0016, new RHC in Spanish // 11760, and //
ripple/distorted 11670 as if two carriers? but 11700 and 11850 are
both OFF. So the 11850 parasites on 11840 & 11860 also off. Which one
does 11800 replace, or both? 11800 better not be on before 0000 as the
others were, due to Romania in Spanish! Something`s always wrong at
RHC. The 11980 harmonic of 5990 CRI in Spanish also audible now.

9340, April 30 at 0021, RHC on brand new frequency in Spanish, but
missing from 9535 & 9640 the normal 31mb tarde channels; replaces
both, or error, or?

Another change reported by wolfie the morning of April 29 was 7350
instead of 7340. Remains to be heard if all these changes stick, and
what more there may be; Arnie just getting around to post-seasonal
juggling? Or maybe to celebrate May 1: ``patria o suerte,
¡pensaremos!`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, April 30 at 0037, Radio Progreso is S9+10/20 of dead
air until cut off at 0043.5*, back on *0051.8-0052.3* still with no
modulation. Lite CODAR swishing QRM only on the LSB side. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 29 at 2242, VOT makes it on air today, S9+5
during Turkish music fill. Seems their success rate on this
transmission is less than 50%; and when it is on they claim it`s the
1230 on 15450. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler and/or awry at
Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2031 monitoring: confirmed after 2100 Wed
April 29 on WBCQ 7490.1v, JBA here and UTwente; VP at Chicagoland
KiwiSDR, sufficient at one of the numerous Rochesters.

Also confirmed UT Thu April 30 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9 on generous
meter but rates only poor vs noise level. Presumably much better to
the NE of FL.

WOR 2032 should be ready by early UT Fri May 1, for first WRMI
broadcast at 2200 on 9955. BTW, I`ve been feeling OK since 2031.

This report dispatched at 0145 UT April 30

** CUBA. 13502, 13568, 13634; 13766, 13832, 13897 approx., April 28 at
1418, extremely distorted spurblobs out of S9+30 13700-AM of RHC. The
inner pair are much stronger than the rest at intervals of about 66
kHz; more readable in AM than FM mode which also bears the earmark F#
tone above Cmiddle. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11980, April 29 at 0020, CRI relay in stilted Spanish,
S8/S9+10 which could be mistaken for a fundamental instead of the
second harmonic of 5990 which is S9+10/30; also on non-harmonic weaker
// 15120. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. Both fundamentals are
Quivicán per Aoki/NDXC but fails to acknowledge the existence of
11980. Nor does Eibi, but ``harm`` 12000 for RHC, and the Vanuatus,
nothing else despite what I and others may hear. Aoki does not even
include the widely-reported Vanuatu multiples of 3945.

I find it perplexing how some DX sources are so reluctant to publish
harmonix and other monitored spurs. Sesquidecades ago I had a column
in NASWA FRENDX, `Hunting Harmonics with Hauser`, and got the
impression that some `DXperts` were reluctant to admit that they
really exist, that I was not imagining them, or suffering from
receiver-produced images (which can also happen, but, know how to tell
the difference!) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000 & 6145, UT Wed April 29 at 0030, at tune-in the mit-week
edition of RHC `DXers Unlimited` is just starting right at the
midpoint of its widely variable timing during each English hour ---
assuming that started on time, not always the case. First topix are
the sporadic-E season about to start (meaning on VHF, it already did,
April 13/15, and before that on HF); and sunspot signs of two solar
cycles at once --- but reception is so poor on the only two
frequencies, due to heavy storms in central and NE Oklahoma, and
undermodulated/weak signals, that I give up.

Why, in the noisy, insolated summer, are all RHC English eggs in one 6
MHz basket after 00 UT, plus even lower 5 MHz, not always, after 05
UT? Makes one wonder how well frequency manager Arnie really
understand propagation. I would not call him a ``self-styled expert``
as he once honored me. Something`s always wrong at RHC, and this is
just another thing, self-defeating its anti-American propaganda ---
so, way to go! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1600, April 28 at 1456 UT during talkshow, KUSH Cushing
carrier is rapidly rippling, unlike any of its neighbors (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. For Lane Whitesell --- I am not a big opera fan, and
rarely listen to an entire opera, unless maybe Mozart or Glass, but
I want to thank you for the wonderful music you play afterwards until
5:00 including today April 25! Do keep doing it. Glenn Hauser (a
former classical music programmer and announcer, myself) [on KUCO 90.1

Thanks for the comment --- It's nice to be appreciated for what I try
to do well in the studio (at KUCO). Thanks! (Lane A. Whitesell, April
26 to gh)

I am referring to vocal/choral music, not necessarily operatic, often
keyed to performers` birthdays, to fill out the widely variable space
following Met or other Saturday opera broadcasts which generally start

`Footlight Parade` from elsewhere, Broadway to operatic, this time

** PRIDNESTROVYE. 12160, April 28 at 1434, VP talk in unknown language
vs lite CODAR. Aoki/NDXC shows TWR-India via MDA/Grigoriopol`/KCH site
at 1345-1445 on a complex language schedule per quarter-hour, this one
in Hindi on M-F only; off earlier other days. Just so gone by *1500
when WWCR-2 ascend from 7490 to 12160 --- not *1600 as in Aoki,
outdated standard timing? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 28 at 2234 check, another failed non-broadcast
of VOT English to North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17530, April 28 at 1435-1436* open carrier cuts off shortly
after tune-in; presumably IBB Grimesland routine transmitter check a
few hours before scheduled broadcast on same (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5010, April 28 at 0559, S9+10/20 of open carrier; can`t see
how it could be anything but WRMI-10 which nominally closes at 0330
after Argentina relay. So why on now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4840, April 28 at 0558, WWCR is S9+40 but dead air except
for some hum; by 0604 has resumed with TOMBS, tsk2 (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A. 7505, April 29 at 0149, just at tune-in, WRNO drops off the
air, and still off by 0156 tune-out. No great loss (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** ARGENTINA [non]. 5800, UT Tue April 28 at 0230, via WRMI, RAE AAM
opening octolingual hour in Spanish. Fernando says it`s ``Made in
Casa`` #5, but impression from further comments is that was recorded
last week, not today. German YL a few minutes later, usw., etc. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11950, April 27 at 2217, this RHC on earlier than nominal
*2300 for alternate `Mesa Redonda` TV soundtrack. It`s a speech by
some Commie, perhaps a live event, distorted here, but // mainstream
RHC Spanish on 11760, undermodulated 11850 and its spur on 11840;
while 11700 is in Portuguese, 13740 and 15370 are off. 6000 is on at
2225 and the SSOB at S9 --- except it`s dead air. Normally it would be
// 11950 for the separate M.R. at 23-24. By 0214 Apr 28, 6000 is JBM,
perhaps in English like louder 6145. Something`s always wrong at RHC
::: (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, April 28 at 0219, RHC Spanish is S9+20, overmodulated
and distorted. 11760 is off already. Not on at 2217, but 13740 is on
now, S9+20. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

not including any 11760 in the tarde; but EiBi A-20 shows 21-02 while
11670 is 23-04, 11850 21-05.

As for the Esperanto broadcast missing at least the last two weeks
from Sunday 1500 on 11760 & 15140, now the Esperanto page
http://www.radiohc.cu/eo
does provide audio of the April 26 show, which 2+ minutes into
announces the schedule as Sundays: 08 UTC on 6100; 16 on 11760; 2230
on 15730 --- those are winter times! Should be at 07 and 15, but maybe
still at 2230. I`ve checked neither the first nor the last, and who
knows, maybe sometech axually believe it`s supposed to be at 16?(Glenn

just as WOR has ended, FSN from Washington yet British accent, with
more detail, but cut to dead air at 1832 and still dead past 1838 when
The Shortwave Report should be playing. I hope there were no such
interruptions to *our* SW report.

Also confirmed UT Tue April 28 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 here but
noisy so only fair; at 0127 check, poor at UTwente, but VG at remote
in Maine. Next:

2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

** U S A. 5800, April 28 at 0010, ``weather around the globe`` ---
followed by --- music! on SMTV via WRMI. Just another example why it`s
not a good idea to run TV soundtrax on radio without ``translating``
video-only info into audio. I can just *imagine* the grafix with maps
and temps, like on NHK Newsline, along with its tiresome always-same
music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, April 28 at 0216, WRMI relaying RPI in Spanish, but as
I tune in with BFO, carrier is breaking up rapidly, then settles down.
Good thing there is an adjacent standby transmitter for this System
and frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7490.097V, April 28 at 0015-0100, WBCQ with `From the Isle
of Music`, jazz as promised this week, mostly music rather than
interviews, fair S9+10.

I was glad to advance-publicize a WBCQ special for Tuesday May 5 at
21-22 UT, featuring this and other musical programmers. Unfortunately,
we know that this time of year, reception that early in the day to
this far away will be poor, mostly absorbed before it get here, just
like other shows at 21, Marion`s Attic, BeHAViour Night, and World of
Radio. To be on 7490; and 5130 which will be even worse in the
afternoon. Why not repeat it after dark?? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
