** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, May 11 at 1528, NO signals from LRA36
into 8 KiwiSDRs, 4 in Argentina, 4 in Brasil. Manuel Méndez got a
whatsapp notification yesterday that RNASG was going to broadcast this
Wednesday at 1500 repeating the Saturday show. They started to, says
Kari Kallio, Finland, but dumped off the air already at 1508*. That
explains it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY [non]. 11850, May 11 at 0634, YL talk in unknown language,
S4/S7 direct. Aoki shows it`s DW in Hausa via FRANCE.

I really have no ``feel`` for recognizing Hausa, one of the major
languages of Nigeria, no keywords like ``imnida``, a giveaway for
Korean. I investigate via Google Translate: how would they say ``Hier
ist die Deutsche Welle``? --- ``Ga Deutsche Welle``. How about ``This
is the Voice of America``? --- ``Wannan ita ce Muryar Amurka``. The
ADDX language schedules show Hausa still on SW via all these: AWR,
VOA, TRT, BBC, IRIB, RFI, VON, DW, CRI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 104.9, May 11 at 1702 UT, ``KQSN Ponca City,
oklahomabull.com, 104-7 The Bull`` also offering bull rides, and what
else? Country music. That URL converts to
https://www.myhometownpost.com/1047thebull
as part of a group also including WBBZ 1230, 95.9 Bob FM, KSOK 103.3 &
1280, the latters axually in Arkansas City, Kansas.

I`m bandscanning on the caradio as Hepburn tropo map for ``Ern No
America`` predicts as of 1800, a Level 5 = strong tropoblob almost to
Enid covering eastern OK, and large parts of the ArkLaTex --- but
nothing special now, not even Tulsa enhancement. Similar on the F5LEN
tropo map for the ``west coast``, but less extensive.

104.9 I also inspect, which bore The Metroplex S Asian station before:
now fading out and in is ``Wild 104-9`` which per WTFDA db is merely
KKWD Bethany OK, 6/6 kW, 100 m HAAT.

Whatever became of newish 104.9, KEUC Ringwood, much closer but only
0.1/0.1 kW, 21 m HAAT with EWTN; is it on the air? I haven`t heard it
even on the west side of Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. May 10 at 1715 UT on caradio in garage, another FM check
compared to yesterday noon:

93.9, KIMY Watonga has now managed to modulate, as one of
thegospelstation.com acknowledging support from the Pollard Theater,
Guthrie, which I had assumed was a secular institution.

Website has a coverage map centred in OK but with outliers in TX, AR,
OH, TN. Tho singularly named, it`s axually a 17-station network:

88.3 South Central OK
88.3 Broken Bow, OK
88.3 Dibrell, TN
90.1 HD2 Edmond OK
91.5 Henryetta/South Tulsa OK
91.5 Wichita Falls, TX/Lawton, Duncan, OK
91.9 Granite/Altus OK
93.9 Watonga/Kingfisher/Weatherford, OK
99.7 HD4 Amarillo, TX
100.1 Chickasha, OK
101.5 Oklahoma City Metro
102.7 Paris, TX
103.9 Bartlesville, OK
104.7 Amarillo, TX
105.1 Ada, OK
106.9 Hillsboro, OH
107.3 Edmond/Guthrie, OK

Note the 90.1 HD2 Edmond, which means is sapping some of the power out
of KUCO, our classical station with a signal much weaker than
equivalent commercial OKC stations. But renting the HD2 to gospel
huxters helps pay their bills. You would never know there is such a
connexion by inspecting the KUCOFM.com website.

88.3, at 1717 UT May 10, dead air in stereo from the KJIL 99.1
translator in Enid, K202BY, at least for a few minutes; modulating
when next checked at 0226 UT May 11.

104.7, at 1718 UT May 10, dead air in mono with some CCI. Normal
fringe dominator is KQSN Ponca City, 25/25 kW. 1830 recheck now
driving, is on with slogan ``The Maul`` -- or Moll -- or Mall? They
all sound alike, but in db as ``The Bull``. Why name station for a
stupid animal? Could the DA have been a silent unID unfed nearby RF
feeder instead? Would expect one of those to be $ tereo (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. From Wolfgang Buschel, more about missing RRI frequencies:
``Sender Țigănești TX1, -- missing transmitter function since April 1,
2021: ... is the 2nd attempt, after a wrong order with a wrong
component to repair attempt in 2021. 73 wb`` and forwards this from
someone in translation:

``Good afternoon, here is the promised answer to the question about
the reactivation of the Țigănești TX1 transmitter: A conversation with
RADIOCOM revealed that they were [awaiting] the delivery of a
capacitor from China. Delivery date would be June at the earliest.
Kind regards, Alexander`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 10 at 2252, VOT English is S9+10/20 into
Marylandm reciting entire English transmission schedule as always in
somewhat jumbled form, and with quite a hum; IS and cut off at 2255*
before can switch to bonus German. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 10 at 0501-0506, UR1 via WRMI with
`Ukraine: Security Issue`, the fast-talker in English for May 9, Day
76 of the War, VG into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2137 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday May 10 at 0037 the 0030 on WRMIs direct, 9395 & 9455 both
S9/+10 but somewhat lower modulation level on 9395.

Also confirmed Tuesday May 10 at 2230 on WRMI 9955: S6/9+10 direct
with no jamming audible; then at 2250 checking remotes to the SSE
where it`s allegedly aimed, little or nothing to Boa Vista or St
Lucia; nor even Knoxville to the NNW. But it`s S9/+10 to Maryland as
lite jamming becomes audible and builds toward 2300 for Radio
Libertad, since there is no liberty allowed in CUBA. The Other Side:

``Cuba touts itself as a 'medical powerhouse,' but many citizens have
to go abroad for treatment --- Most of them apply for humanitarian
visas to be treated in 'the belly of the monster'.

1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW

** U S A. Doug Smith replies re contradictory info about KKFI 90.1
KC/MO which I DXed at some 300 miles/500 km:

``The 5.31 kW KKFI facility is a backup transmitter. If you look in
the FCC LMS records, the "service" is "FS" instead of "FM". There's an
old permit (superseded) for a different site but both that permit and
the actual site in use are east of I-435, well inside Missouri``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. RF 12, May 10 at 1450 UT, tropo up again much like yesterday
morning, lots of BAD VHF & UHF DTV signals, but only this decodes,
KSCW 33-1 Wichita but carrying Eyewitness News from KWCH ``12`` on 12,
which itself is really on RF 19 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
