 ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, July 6 circa 1500, I miss checking for LRA36 this Wednesday, but Gary Pence was getting it via the KFS remote in California, and Brazilians from 1446 to 1511* LOS, peaking at 1458-1502 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9673.72 & 9673.52 approx., July 7 at 0701, RVM praise music in Portuguese keeps hopping back and forth around these as I am trying to measure it exactly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11670, July 7 at 0646, RHC English again on unsked frequency, S9/+10 but somewhat distorted; only other still on is // 6165; 5040 still on in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13629 & 13771 approx., July 7 at 1441, RHC spurblobs from 13700 at plus/minus ~71 kHz, rather weak this time, no readable modulation even in FM mode; also second order 13558 approx. vs. RF ID local ISM beepery 24h on 13560; but can`t be sure of a match on 13842 vs 13845 WWCR AM. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9440, July 6 at 2136, R. Cairo English scheduled, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR but extremely distorted music with whine; no better at 2214 recheck. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 7425 AM, July 7 at 0654, S9/+20 VG signal talking about NZ but chopped off at 0655*. No, NOT 7245. 7425 is a registered alternate for RNZP, so must be one of their Thursday maintenance tests; and 9700 is absent, so anyone axually listening for content is out of luck! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also unIDs 5980, 6075 ** TAIWAN. 9705, July 7 at 1450, pop songs S5/S8, best extra-continental signal on band while K-index is 5, i.e. per Aoki, Furusato no Kaze in Japanese at 1430-1458 via Paochung site. On a NNE beam it would carry on well to OK far beyond target Korea North (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2145 monitoring; ``From: Richard Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees. Dear Glenn: World of Radio, monitoring and confirming the latest for #2145, 9455 kHz is not on my schedule anymore, continued troubled time hearing at 0130 UTC on 5850 kHz, too much daylight hours reduced reception, WRMI: 5850, 0132, 0145, static moderate, 0159, 5850 kHz, July 1 UT [Fri] 9395, static, 0044, 0057 (45443-2), 0159, July 5 UT [Tue] 9955, 2234, 2247, Creek FM [as in webcast?], 2259, July 5 UT [Tue] 9395, 2330, very weak, 2359, July 5 UT [Tue] 5850, missed broadcast sleeping, 1059, July 6 UT [Wed] 9395, 0030, 0044 (45343), usual static QRN; 9395, 0130, 0135, 0150, 0156 (45443), 0159, July 7 UT [Thu] Good listening, Richard, July 7, 2022`` Also confirmed Tue July 5 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, S9+10 into Georgia, no jamming audible, but built up by 2300 against R.

Richard did get 9395. NEW WOR 2146 should be ready for download and first broadcasts by 0130 UT Friday July 8 on WRMIs 5850 & 7730 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9260-9265-9270, July 7 at 0704, DRM noise from WINB as now registered 07-10 but Sat & Sun only and this is Thursday. Characteristic hybrid with noise on top half, secret data beepery on bottom half (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. As of July 7, I`m still working on compiling my July 4 Es FM DX logs from NV, UT, WY, ID, MT. Since then, and so far July 7, MUFs tantalizingly hovering mostly somewhat below the FM band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 11835, July 7 at 0648, R. Vanuatu is still AWOL from 3 x 3945, nor has it appeared since last unlogged June 30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5975-5980-5985, July 7 at 0656, S9+ DRM noise atop usual mess of jamming/WWCR leapfrogs. Shortly disappears. Suspect another RNZP maintenance test. Not in skeds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6070-6075-6080, July 7 at 0650, DRM noise S9+10/20: something new not in Aoki, EiBi or HFCC. Sharp cutoff does not bother 6070 CFRX much even when tuned in USB. Another NZ test maybe?

 ** CUBA. 13651 & 13749 approx., July 5 at 1441, S5/S7 spurblobs extremely distorted with no readable audio, JBM even in FM mode, but telltale F# tone. So plus/minus ~49 kHz out of 13700 AM transmitter. Also weaker at X2 = ~98 kHz offsets, 13798 and obscured by 13605 Martí, on 13602. Also X3 = ~147 kHz, JB detectable circa 13554 and maybe 13846 vs 13845 WWCR. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 99.5, July 4 at 1739 UT as a big sporadic E opening is underway, currently from Utah but not yet compiled, something here instead of usual fringe KXBL Henryetta --- Waynoka in western OK mentioned and then, and then --- ``1430 AM, KALV``. That`s in nearby Alva which I can barely hear on 1430 with direxional pattern and/or QRP. This is NOT in the WTFDA FM database: must be a new? translator, as I do find it at FCC FM Query: ``K258GZ OK ALVA USA FX LIC Licensee: REMEMBER RADIO, LLC Service Designation: FX Translator Station (retransmits signal, different channel than main station) [but NOT specified KALV or any] Channel/Class: 258D Frequency: 99.5 MHz Licensed File No.: 0000106074 Facility ID number: 203242 LMS Application ID: 25076f917036859c017045c234d2086b (Assigned numerical ID: 0000106074) Licensed date: 2020-03-11`` Well, that was over a biyear ago; if it`s really been on, had not noticed it before. Translators are often owned by another party as a station makes a relay deal, but KALV 1430 also belongs to Remember Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) More OK under USA ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2145 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday July 5 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9/+5 into Maryland SDR. Next: 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html For these noncommercial services, voluntary financial support is much appreciated; thanks this week to Terry Colgan, Austin, TX for a contribution via PayPal in US funds, but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com and says, ``Thanks for your continuing dedication to the radio listening hobby. Best wishes for health and good DX`` One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Sporadic E FM DX opening UT Sunday July 3 from 0129 to 0217; a few Mexicans at first already reported. 88.1 at 0133, Spanish music, tropical, ``carnaval`` repeatedly refrained. But segué to English song, ``River So Wide``. Despite Es in progress from AZ/Sonora border area, suspect this be KWOU Woodward OK relaying KGOU Norman, during `Global Sojourn` show at 8-10 pm CDT Saturdays, including a playlist which may be what I heard but not obvious hits: 8:28 PM TITLE: Bomba Swing COMPOSER: W.Cepeda ARTIST: William Cepeda & Afrorican Jazz ALBUM: My Roots & Beyond 8:35 PM TITLE: River Jordan COMPOSER: n/a ARTIST: Peter Broggs ALBUM: Progressive Youth 88.1 at 0207 indeed ``Global Sojourn`` but with DX CCI in Spanish 100.3 at 0139, rock YL DJ, ``on the beat``. If a station slogan, the only two are nowhere near the PTA: WMVN 100.3 SYLVAN BEACH NY HD RHYTHMIC CHR THE BEAT 6.0 kW 100.0 m KATZ-FM 100.3 BRIDGETON MO HD URBAN CONTEMPORARY 100.3 THE BEAT 17.0 kW 120.0 m [near St Louis like 1600 KATZ] More likely in the AZ/CA border PTA: KJMB-FM 100.3 BLYTHE CA ADULT CONTEMPORARY KJMB FM 100.3 36.0 kWH only 17.0 m horizontal only I do not see Beat mentioned on website but does not rule it out: https://kjmbradio.com/ --- 1552 km = 964 mi One thing I resist for lack of time is monitoring streams of stations later for something matchable. 100.7 at 0140, Catholic talk in English about Loreto. Nothing fits in AZ or NV, and the closest in CA is rather far-fetched: K264CK relays:KHOT-1250 100.7 FRESNO CA RELIGIOUS TEACHING IMMACULATE HEART RADIO 0.25 kW --- 1953 km = 1213 mi; and it takes some doing to audiblize against adjacent local 100.9 KGWA translator. Faked out by something nearby in KS or OK? No Catholix listed. Possibly religious but not exclusively Catholic tho seems unlikely, such as KWRD Highland Village TX north side of The Metroplex, a Salem outlet so presumably evangelical/Protestant. 375 km = 233 mi. 94.9 log below points to north TX. 102.1 at 0140, soft rock and talk about music, or CCI 94.9 at 0146, Eyemart Express ad, fade. I figure it`s a national ad but search leads right back to several locations in OK, and a few in adjacent states KS, MO, TX. OK has only two unlikely translators; KS has two distant full-powers in Concordia, Shawnee, but nearest is: KIND 94.9 ELK CITY KS HOT AC 6.0 kW 82.9 m --- not the Elk City in OK! This is just west of Independence in the SE, not very close to Wichita where Eyemart has its only two KS stores. Nothing near Joplin MO. However, both TX locations hit close geographical correlations: Eyemart Wichita Falls, near Electra: KOLI 94.9 ELECTRA TX COUNTRY 94.9 THE OUTLAW 50.0 kW 150.0 m --- 279 km = 174 mi and Eyemart Flower Mound, N side of The Metroplex, near Arlington: KLTY 94.9 ARLINGTON TX HD CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN 94.9 KLTY 99.0 kW 508.0 m --- 413 km = 256 mi; so apparently extended groundwave on a channel normally vacant here, not even the KOSU Ponca City translator 93.5 at 0158 ads, CCI with KS, tostadas, González Meat Market in Lancaster, State Farm. 0200 ID for Rosamond-Lancaster-Palmdale, so: KQAV 93.5 ROSAMOND CA CLASSIC HIP-HOP OLD SCHOOL 93.5 6.0 kW 27.0 m //KOSS 1380/K272FI 102.3/K296GX 107.1 --- 1841 km = 1144 mi 94.3 at 0209, ``The Duck, giveaways all summer``; CCI from song mixing Spanish and English; 0212 ``hits back to back 24 hours a day, 94-3``; 0217 rock, about a sex pill [so not Bott!], tickets to Six Flags [over something? not TX. Probably Magic Mountain as in L.A.], ``right here on The Duck, 94 days of summer`` and end of opening: KDUC 94.3 BARSTOW CA RHYTHMIC CHR THE DUCK 4.6 kW 239.0 m --- 1735 km = 1078 mi (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2124 UT July 5 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

 ** BRAZIL. 9673.22V, July 4 at 0638, RVM gospel music wobbling around here as I try to measure it, good signal and modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 13530 & 13130 & weaker 13020, July 4 at 1457, the regular CNR1 jammers with pop music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 12000, July 4 at 0618, RHC English S6/S8, 2 x 6000 which is much stronger. This harmonic appears only occasionally, at transmitter maladjustments? By 0650, these three are unusually all still on: 6000, 6060, 6100 but not 6165. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2145 monitoring: Also confirmed Sunday July 3 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323 kHz, S9+20/25 into nearby Noale SDR including heavy splash from much stronger adjacents on 1314 and 1332, plus storm crashes. Also confirmed Sunday July 3 at 2237 the 2230 still on WRMI 5950, S9+10/22 into Georgia SDR with storm crashes. Also confirmed UT Monday July 4 at 0033 the 0030 on WRMI 7780 S7/S9 into Athens GA SDR, better here than some others checked, even Durango2 and TWR Brownsville. Also confirmed UT Monday July 4 from 0259 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6159.942, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, trying to avoid ACI from 6165 RHC thru LSB tuning narrow, or AM narrow, but can`t get rid of it completely as these two stations refuse to distance from each other. Next: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html For these noncommercial services, voluntary financial support is much appreciated; thanks this week to Terry Colgan, Austin, TX for a contribution via PayPal in US funds, but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com and says, ``Thanks for your continuing dedication to the radio listening hobby. Best wishes for health and good DX`` One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9940, July 4 at 0645, WTWW with soft rock at S6/S9, still on but not so strong, // 5085 at S9+40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5890, July 4 at 0647, this WWCR is missing TOMBS, while 5935 and 4840 remain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Sporadic E FM DX opening Saturday July 2 at 1829-1930 UT from Michigan and vicinity, somewhat Lower than last time; on caradio with fender vertical antenna only, standard provisos to which I add: no possibility of side-tuning to even frequencies avoiding QRM; strictly UT: We start off with a rather confusing situation; perhaps Chris Kadlec can straighten it out. 92.9 at 1829, strong rock/rap. Nothing further here, but based on following logs we look up Michigan: WJZQ 92.9 CADILLAC MI CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO Z93 100.0 kW 278.0 m Z93 Today's Best Hits Top 40 --- website is: https://www.z93hits.com/ but its studio is in Traverse City, not too far but not too close, to Cadillac --- 1369 km = 851 mi 93.5 at 1830, music CCI with Hayes KS fringer. Later at 1855, ``The Rock Station K-L-T``; 1900 ``Rogers City - Alpena, The Rock Station K-L-T``. WBCM relays:WKLT 97.5 93.5 BOYNE CITY MI ROCK 97.5 WKLT 14.0 kW 283.0 m The trouble is: Boyne City, just S of Petoskey on the NW coast, is 100+ miles from Rogers City & Alpena on the NE coast. So it relays the KLT station as below on 97.5 yet gives own frequency 93.5. But the 97.5 station is in Kalkaska, just east of Traverse City in the NW. It`s also linked to a 98.9 station but not branded as KLT which applies only to 97.5 and 93.5. Is 98.9 serving RC&A? No, it`s in Petoskey. Boyne City: 1458 km = 906 mi 93.9 at 1830, music CCI with KIMY OK. And at 1841 97.5 at 1831, a poet quoted, maybe the source of 93.5 above. 1848, mattress ad in Traverse City. Great Lakes Land with lots in northern MI: WKLT 97.5 KALKASKA MI CLASSIC ROCK KLT THE ROCK STATION 32.0 kW 188.0 m 97.5 FM 98.9 FM KLT The Rock Station //WRGZ 96.7 - 1415 km = 880 mi 93.7 at 1833, Lakers, trends in baseball; unlikely residual KSPI OK; 1835, Z-93, YL DJ on blood giving, Michelle Peréz at noon to one; 929-HITS which chex as number for Z-93, not to be confused with anything on 92.9 MHz: https://www.z93hits.com/contact, Traverse City ads, Cherry Festival, Downtown Arts Fest; Tony`s Best Tacos, Z-93. Must be this just S of Traverse City, but not branded as Z-93: WKAD relays:WMBN-1340 93.7 HARRIETTA MI SPORTS THE TICKET 4.3 kW 119.0 m // W284DF 104.7 --- 1354 km = 841 mi 93.3 at 1834, CCI with Jake OKC 95.3 at 1843, plug event in Kresge Auditorium which chex as Interlochen i.a.; arts fest, Interlochen.org - a classical mecca with arts school. None especially close but outreach probably beyond the WIAA coverage area, like this non-comm down the coast: WGVS-FM 95.3 WHITEHALL MI NEWS/JAZZ WGVU 88.5 & 95.3FM 2.0 kW 110.0 m Saturday Night Blues LISTEN ONLINE AT WGVU.ORG No Program Type or Undefined //WGVU 88.5 & W237CZ 95.3 [Grand Rapids, but oldies??] Whitehall also correlates with next single log across Lake MI in WI: Whitehall: 1253 km = 779 mi 95.5 at 1844, algo trying to edge in to local 95.7 97.3 at 1845, ``97-3 The Game``: WRNW 97.3 MILWAUKEE WI HD SPORTS 97.3 THE GAME 15.5 kW 278.0 m Top 40 [sic] --- 1127 km = 700 mi 96.3 at 1858, Bad Credit Blues ad; Ballard`s Plumbing and Heating in Petoskey; vs ACI from 96.1 OKC: WLXT 96.3 PETOSKEY MI ADULT CONTEMPORARY LITE 96.3 100.0 kW 299.0 m --- 1472 km = 915 mi 94.5 at 1901, 3:01 timecheck, inviting R&R requests, and multi-station ID including WYPV Mackinaw City, too quick to copy all, ``road-runner`` only station for R&R: WYPV relays:WQON 100.3 94.5 MACKINAW CITY MI CLASSIC ROCK Q 100 50.0 kW 110.0 m // WWMN 106.3 --- 1514 km = 941 mi 97.5 at 1911, ``Werewolf 97.5``, country. Turns out to be the Alva OK station not far from Enid to the NW, but a new name on me. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KZLF ``KZLF ("Werewolf 97.5 FM") is a radio station broadcasting an adult hits music format licensed to Alva, Oklahoma, United States.[1] The station is currently owned by Running Wolf Radio LLC, which purchased it from George S. Flinn in 2022.[2]`` ``Human all day - WOLF ALL NIGHT`` see https://werewolf975.com/ --- ex-KPAK. WTFDA has new call but not new branding and non-silent format: KZLF 97.5 ALVA OK Silent CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN 97.5 THE QUAKE 50.0 kW 150.0 m 37-01-27 98-41-22 Silent 3/25/22 equip replacement --- 70 km = 44 mi 96.7 at 1917, ad for waterfront property (877) 333-8830 or https://whiteoakcreekranchtx.com --- TX??? I`ve been getting Michigan but those clues indeed lead to Texas, phone in Decatur which is NW of Fort Worth. From photos, the ``water`` refers to ponds or lakes or creeks, not seashore! Surely not advertising waterfront property to Michiganders. Closest station to there is on N side of The Metroplex: KTCK-FM 96.7 FLOWER MOUND TX SPORTS RADIO 1310 & 96.7, THE TICKET 90.0 kW 621.0 m All Sports all the time - KTCK The Ticket - //KTCK 1310 --- so this is fluke extended GW and that tall tower helps, not sporadic E. KTCK 1310 being successor to long-lamented WRR --- 381 km = 236 mi 99.7 at 1927, ``Hank FM``, another fringe Okie, but later see there is another same name in adjacent Kansas on same 99.7; beware, but only ours spells HANK backwards: Can anyone think of another station branding by spelling callsign backwards? FHGK sure won`t work: KNAH 99.7 MUSTANG OK COUNTRY HANK FM 47.0 kW 155.0 m - 112 km = 70 mi KGHF 99.7 BELLE PLAINE KS COUNTRY 99.7 HANK FM 50.0 kW 147.0 m unhrd 93.1 at 1930, ``93 K-ROCK``, one last gasp of the Es from MI, and one Yooper I heard in previous opening: WIMK 93.1 IRON MOUNTAIN MI ROCK 93.1 K ROCK 100.0 kW 180.0 m --- 1331 km = 827 mi More sporadic E FM DX yet to be compiled: July 3 at 0129-0218 UT: AZ, CA; Mexico SONORA already done July 4 at 1634-1907+ UT: NV, UT, WY, ID, MT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 13745-13755, July 4 at 0616, sure sounds like weak DRM noise but nothing in skeds to account for it. Maybe China or Russia? Romania is on 13750 at other times in AM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2347 UT July 4 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
