** CHINA. Unusually today I have been bandscanning the entire 11-15
MHz OOB range for jammers, once one was found to be propagating, as I
was originally looking for a Cuban harmonic on 12200.

12190, April 17 at 1234 Chinese at S3 // 6125 and 11785 where there is
a mixture. This is one of countless CNR1 jamming frequencies as
monitored by Wolfgang Bueschel during this hour, +3 Hz high.

13130, April 17 at 1242, another Chinese at S2 // 11785. Per wb`s
report, another CNR1, vs Sound of Hope, the latter being +86 Hz high
when he heard it, but not even a het from it here.

12820, April 17 at 1244, Chinese at S3. Wb`s report shows CNR1 on
exact frequency, while target SOH when he monitored was -95 Hz low,
inaudible here.

must have been off; not NSP? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1390, April 16 around 1830 UT, as I drive around north
side of Enid, it`s clear that the reactivated KCRC has an expanded
radius of desensitization as far as my caradio is concerned. Now I
can`t hear 1410 KGSO Wichita --- not that I should ever want to with
stupid ESPN sports talk! This close to KCRC`s 3 towers, desens extends
further but hard to evaluate its edges. This suggests that present
transmitter is running more than 1 kW and/or is broaderband. Still no
spurs on 1420 or 1360 but those OK & KS stations also inaudible; plus
the splatter out of 1390. Even at my home QTH further away, 1410 is
just starting to break thru, unlike with the old KCRC transmitter
(Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

April 15 from 1817 on IRRS via Romania, 7290, via UTwente SDR good and
not too much splatter from 7280/7300. This week at 1813 tune-in there
is a tone, 1814 JIP tail end of Feature Story News, 1815 two minutes
of IRRS` ``Triumphal March from AÃda`` theme, before WOR finally
starts at 1817, so presumably running almost until 1846.

** U S A. 7730, April 16 at 0000, WRMI switches from TOMBS to
synthetic Bible readings in Spanish, instead of Wavescan. And at 0030
Wavescan replacing WORLD OF RADIO, as first noted last week. Skedgrid
via http://www.tinyurl.com/WRMIfqs has been partially updated again
dated April 13 now explaining this: it`s Alameda Bible Fellowship,
which has been inserted in many new spots on several frequencies,
thrice weekly, mostly M/W/F, or in this case on 7730 at 0000, UT
Tue/Thu/Sat, which also displaced WOR on Thursday. And also 2030
Tuesday on 7780, in this case Mon/Tue/Fri. The Program page has no
portion about ABF, but as I recall, they have podcasts of Bible
readings in many languages. The one at 0000 April 16 had to be
interrupted abruptly before 0030 for WS, so apparently not packaged as
29-minute SW programs (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490, John Carver fills out his report on AWWW 4-6-19 on
WBCQ: ``Tonight's show started more or less on time after a brief
period of dead air. Allan and Angela in the studio in FLA stating that
they are analog in a digital world. Talking about GFI plugs and
receptacles. Says they're all Chinese junk. Then talk about buying and
selling antique cars and how the bottom has dropped out of the market.
Talk of problems with the rebuild of his most recent old car. Auto
talk continues for most of the program.

Allan said that 3265 service would continue but this summer he will be
changing both transmitter and antenna. Reading of emails began at 0051
and the feed to Maine dropped, followed quickly by the station playing
some music fill. Feed restored in a minute or so. Reading of the Free
Radio Weekly. No closing prayer and program was off at 0100 followed
by some music. 7490 was off the air at 0102. John, Mid-North Indiana``

** U S A. 5890, April 16 at 0603, WWCR open carrier is on at S9+20 =
to 5935 modulating DGS. 4840 is also S9+20/30 of dead air, allowing
the adjacent bonker about 4843 to audiblize. Normally off, 3215 is
also emiting OC/DA at S9+10/20. I am beginning to see a pattern here:
Tuesdays --- same kind of thing I have logged before on April 2,
January 29, January 22, December 25; plus once on Thursday February
28.

Ethan Best, KC9YDN, also reports today April 16 to the WOR iog:
``Early this morning (6:30z) tuning across the bands I noted 3/4 of
WWCR's services are dead air. 3215, 4840, 5890. Only one with

** OKLAHOMA. More on 1390 KCRC Enid: in original report I did not make
clear that it was totally off the air from 2030 UT April 13, rather
than open carrier like its related FM stations.

Shortly after filing that report, I find 1390 finally back on by 19 UT
April 14, after some 22.5 hours of silence; could it be they were
working on getting rid of the spurs? Ha! I am no longer hearing them
at 2235 UT, 1360 clear for KPHN El Dorado KS with EWTN, and 1420 for
KTJS Hobart OK, except now there is expanded splatter from 1390 even
beyond that +/- 30 kHz range. Rather I think KCRC had to switch to a
backup transmitter with different deficiencies.

April 15 at 1412 UT check, still no spurs circa 1360 & 1420, but the
splatter continues, obscuring 1410 Wichita which never suffered this
KCRC problem before (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. (7490), John Carver, IN, updates us April 15 on news from
the last two `Allan Weiner Worldwides` on WBCQ, Saturdays 00-01:

``Glenn, two episodes ago Allen said that 3265 would continue through
the summer, but once he was back in Maine, the antenna would be
changed and possibly the transmitter.

In the most recent program, he stated that the super station would be
energized this week for testing. They will be testing primarily on
9330 and some testing on 7490.

He will post detail on his twitter account. He will be in Florida at
least until the end of the month.

He has developed some health problems, and is seeing several doctors
to try and remedy the situation. He is having heart problems,
primarily a-fib. He doesn't believe it is terribly serious at the
moment. He said, that if he has to have a pace-maker installed, they
will have to put in some special shielding because of the RF energy at
the station. -John``

Now what is his Twit? NO link to it on the homepage
http://www.WBCQ.com --- The obvious guess, https://twitter.com/WBCQ is
axually Dr Scott Becker, not Allan. /weiner is an outdated 2015 Trump
for President troll. Finally found him:

A new photo with each post, and political propaganda (Glenn Hauser,

** U S A. 7490+, UT Monday April 15 at 0000-0100, `Encore` classical

** U S A. 15825, April 15 at 1409 and still 1445, WWCR-1 is S9+20/30

in play making this one-megameter path propagate; confirmed by 10m Es
DXmap which does show a few contacts across this area. 15555-USB WJHR
is also showing up weakly. And at 1415, 12050 WEWN is S7-S9, much
better than usual with an Es boost too. Still not a peep out of 17775
KVOH from the west this early (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

CNR1 loud & clear on 11785 during Sunday-evening cultural show. Aoki
shows 15165 at 13-14 is VOA Chinese via Thailand, and *jammed of

quite pleased this is making it all the way to Chile. She pronounces
his name as if GÃlaz, altho he never puts an accent on the first A. He
also threw in ``fraternal`` verbiage such as ``hasta la victoria
siempre`, so I guess he is really a Commie; or just sucking up? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 9605, April 13 at 1410, NHK World Radio Japan in
English on new frequency from today via PALAU, ex-9625.

Ivo figured the change would also apply to the preceding Indonesian
broadcast, but April 14 at 1357, that is still on 9625 with a fast
SAH, 1400 timesignal and opening English still on 9625! But cuts off
at 1401 and 9605 comes up a few seconds later. Way to go, ex-LeSEA!
Doubtful that such sloppiness would have occurred at Yamata, etc.

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5-WBFM, April 13 before and after 1700 UT, KOCD
Okeene is back on the air; after a week of broadcasting only 14
seconds out of each minute, and then a couple weeks off completely.
Now it`s continuous with praise music in Spanish; 1720 ID jointly with
the 93.9 LP in OKC, KWDW, omitting the denigrating but legal suffix -
LP. The ignorant announcer pronounces it ``Oquini``, while the last E
is silent, at least in Okiesh.

Do they really think their deity listen to this praise stuff on 101.5
and/or crave such reinforcement for Its fragile ego? If I were It, I
would urge My subjects to Get a Life, do something productive with
their Time on Earth, rather than praising Me.

BTW, Okeene`s signature annual event is imminent, the Rattlesnake
Roundup, April 26-28,
http://www.okeenesnakehunt.com
You can bet there will not be a word about this on 101.5. Why
persecute these poor creatures who are just minding their own
business?? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. Enid is just beyond the edge of the big storms to the
south and east, so it`s quite a surprise when the OG&E power goes off
sharp at 2030 UT April 13. Unfortunately I don`t have battery power
set up for the R75, and tho the line noise level should be down, there
is still storm noise. So to accomplish something, we go shopping to
another part of town with power. During which I bandscan caradio and
find the outage goes far beyond our neighborhood:

Dead air from KNID and the other Chisholm Trail stations on 107.1,
106.3, 97.7 and 95.7. Also 1390 KCRC. This means the FM transmitter
sites still have power but not the studio on Willow next to the three
AM towers. The FMs had resumed modulating by 2240 check.

These are off the air completely: the two LPFMs on 94.3 and 99.9 which
are on the same minitower. Other local AM & FM signals continue
unscathed. 94.3 carrier back on by 2240 but not 99.9.

We later hear that the power resumed at least in some parts at 2149.
But guess what, 1390 KCRC never comes back! Suffered some damage, or
AM appendage overlooked to restart?

Since KCRC was 24h NSP, very strong and also with spurs near 1330,
1360, 1420, 1450, this is a rare chance to DX something else at least
on 1390. Nothing audible under daytime conditions, and near sunset
just a graveyard-like jumble. Not until 0558 UT April 13 do I make a
serious effort to DX 1390, but there are still no dominant signals.
This is really to be expected as all the nearest 1390s in adjacent,
even second-adjacent states run quite low power at night. For
instance, KFFK Rogers AR is only 30 watts. KGNU Denver 139 watts. KNCK
Concordia KS 54 watts. KJPW Waynesville MO 111 watts. KHOB Hobbs NM
500 watts. KULP El Campo TX 500 watts. KBEC Waxahachie TX 260 watts.

I`m trying both on the DX-398 for DFing, and on the R75 for better
gain on the E-W longwire. Slightly above the jumble at 0558 UT is C&W
looping NW/SE; 0600 news from same? 0602 back to music. At 0605 I
think I *may* hear a WROA ID in passing, but I already know that
Gulfport MS is a possibility with its 5/5 kW U4 and NOStalgia format.

Awake at 1225 UT after sunrise, maybe still some SRS? C&W looping E/W.
at 1233 UT mentions ``1390`` amid C&W; 1253 UT now a station with
financial talk by M with W sidekickess; 1258 UT fade-out. 1300 UT a
ToH ID I just cannot copy but then can recognize Fox ``news`` sounder;
now that`s a useless clue! Give up while KCRC still remains silent
past 1800 UT April 14. All very frustrating. Maybe there will be
further chances (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1977 monitoring:

Confirmed Saturday April 13 at 1145 the 1130 on WRMI 9955, good.

Also confirmed Saturday April 13 after 2100 on WRMI 9955, fair.

Also confirmed UT Sunday April 14 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, very good.

Also confirmed UT Sunday April 14 starting at 0321 on WA0RCR 1860-AM,
S9+20 but vs storm noise

Alan Gale, England, reports: ``Hi Glenn, No sign of World of Radio
this week, though HLR was coming in reasonably well on 6190 kHz right
up to 1300 UT then not a peep after that. I assumed that it may have
changed to either 7265 or 9485, but there was nothing on the former
and just QRM from a FSK station on the latter plus a lot of splatter
from a station on 9490 kHz.

A check on various webSDRs in northern Germany didn't find anything
either, so I can't work out if it was just propagation or if the
station actually went off air after the programme finished at 1300 UT.

It's back to IRRS 7290 again on Monday again then [1815]; that has
been a very good signal here over recent weeks..... :-) Alan``

I replied, ``Alan, Tnx for checking. I found the same situation via
UTw before 1500 Saturday April 13. The 9490 huge signal would be
Romania. Just heard from HLR and they have been unable to get the
latest WOR on for any of the three weekend broadcasts as long as I do
not have them ready before Friday afternoon their time. I am going to
try to get done earlier in the week, maybe Thursdays, except next week
I have medical appointments both on Thursday and Friday. Glenn``

** U S A. (7490v), April 13 at 00-01, missed AWWW on WBCQ again this
week as I am finishing up WORLD OF RADIO 1977; and John Carver must
still be out of contact. If anyone hear AWWW say anything significant
about program changes or progress on the Super-station, do let us know
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, Saturday April 13 at 2337, WTWW-2 finally starts
`Theater Organ in the Ozarx` at its advanced DST timing; and it runs
until 2412 Sunday April 14, i.e. 35 minutes long --- except besides
confirming it on 5085, I`ve really been listening to the webcast which
this week provides VG hi-fi and stereo sound as very much needed for
organism. Bob Heil closes by lauding all the other great programming
on WTWW --- really? I can`t think of any besides his (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490, April 14 at 1422, S9+40 of dead air from WWCR-2, which
during this hour only on Sundays is scheduled for TOMBS. But
Walterboro is successfully broadcasting via WBCQ 9330.1 and WRMI 9395

UNIDENTIFIED. 1380, April 14 at 1245 UT, blinds.com ad by Dennis
Prager. Unlike 1390 with a jumble of weak signals in the absence of
local KCRC, adjacent 1380 without any splash has good talk signal. So
I try to find a station list for Prager, but no such thing; instead
you have to e-mail him with location and he will answer with
suggestions! https://www.dennisprager.com/find-a-station/

Checking the listings, most likely KXFN St Louis The Answer but `Best
of Prager` is not scheduled until 15-16 UT, while before 13 UT it`s
`Townhall Review` which could still contain such a commercial.
https://theanswerstl.com/programguidedaily?dayOfWeek=Sunday&timeFilter=0
Prager`s home station is another `The Answer` somewhere (Glenn Hauser,
