CUBA see Kiwi SDR access remotedly in Colombia at URL

http://duitama.proxy.kiwisdr.com:8073/

11760 kHz RHC Bauta sundays only in Esperanto at 16.00-16.30 UT.
S=9+15 or -62dBm signal observed at 16.04 UT
and some annoying BUZZ audio interference
'visible on 120, 240, 360, and 480 Hertz distance apart'

and also
15140 kHz S=8-9 or -68dBm at 16.12 UT on Jan 23.

and also the other azimuth direction at
Adair Village in Oregon-US state western US state,
of W7PUA KiwiSDR installation at

http://w7pua-2.ddns.net:8073/

15140 kHz stronger than 11760 kHz,
S=9+20dB of -57dBm at 16.23 UT on Jan 23.

Esperanto px til approx. 16.28 UT, but from
16.29 UT seems I state change
from Esperanto to pure Spanish language - likely.

Guantanamo Cuba island item
(matter of former US empire, the harbour rent 120 years ago,
or even concentration camp prison matter of US justice too).

Followed at 16.32 UT Cuban canciones music.
RHC station ID given in Spanish at 16.33:08 UTC, '... para El Mundo ...'.

CUBA. 9700, Jan 13 at 0652, RHC English is S9+30 and
undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK,WOR)

CUBA. 5040 & 6100 & 9700, Jan 14 at 0713-0715, the only three RHC
frequencies still on the air are all dead, open carriers,
respectively: S9+20/30; S9+10/20 also with a low roar; S9+30.
Something`s always wrong at RHC X 3, Think how many undernourished
Cubans could have been fed hearty meals for the cost of all this
wasted juice - also wasted when modulating propaganda
(Glenn Hauser,OK, WOR)

CUBA. 5040, Jan 16 at 0700, RHC still on here at S9+20/30 but in
unscheduled Spanish instead of English. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. 6060, Jan 16 at 0705, RHC English at S6/S9 with humbuzz; only
other one still on is 9700, S9+10/20 but undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. 6060, Sunday January 16 at 0810 before I doze completely, RHC
weekly Esperanto confirmed only here, and like in English previous
hour, with humbuzz.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. 9700, Jan 18 at 0724, RHC English at S9 but JBM, only
frequency left. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK,WOR)

CUBA. 6060, Jan 19 at 0707, RHC is S9 of humbuzz only, no English.
6100 is S9+10/20 of dead air; 9700 is S9 of dead air; 5040 is S9+30
still on in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC

Logs
** AUSTRALIA. CARN - Calling All Radio Nutzz, publicized by Jen to
occur at 19-21 UT Sat Jan 22 on Unique Radio 5035-USB and stream: so I
bring up the stream at 1915 and past 1927 hear nothing but rock music,
apparently by a DJ in Los Angeles, altho an Unique Radio ID inserted.
C.A.R.N. was supposed to include: ``prop news, Segments From Around
The HF Radio Spectrum, besides, HF audio files to play for you. GB's
logs From the Past, Musical Interlude, Dx-News, & last but not least,
Our Live HF tuning segment From South FL, Jen & GB From England seeing
what`s hot on the "Waves"`` --- but no sign of that with Jen nor in
following semihour when I leave the rock on in the background.

Since radio and internet are already saturated with rock, why does
anyone think we want more of it??? At 1957, however, Aussie Tim is
introducing his own signature show, `Sounds of Your Life` -- well,
maybe his life. Must be a very old recording as he claims to be also
on WINB 13755-DRM, Wed/Thu/Fri at 1400-1500, which is not even its
current frequency; and on 5045 which is not even his own current
frequency, from Gunnedah NSW, not his current location. The Unique
Radio website is quite a mess if you try to figure out what`s on when,
more and more DJ shows (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Jan 22 at 0805 UT, RHC is *still* on the air, not a
typo, S9+10 but JBM in English. 5040, only other frequency still on at
0807 Jan 22, but is the S9+20/30 dead air in English or Spanish? Take
that, Vanuatu! Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, Jan 22 at 2215, RHC with weather report in English, S9
but undermodulated with hum; 11850 Spanish is S9+25/S8 but suptorted
and pulsing; 11760 S8-S9 distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6933 USB, Jan 22 at 2253, S9/+23 but distorted,
overmodulated playing ``Wheels``; 2254.7 SSTV beepery; 2256.6 no
announcement, surfin` tune; 2258.7 another SSTV already; 2300.6
another surfin` song; 2302.7 ``Wipeout``, still distorted. If you are
really out on the waves, you certainly are not listening to any music
so how is this a subgenre all its own? Tune away briefly, then 2308
recheck it`s off. If there were ever any ID, sign-off announcement, I
missed it, but am confident there will be HFU reports:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,91986.0.html
Outhouse Radio since 2204, with noisy images (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 AM, Jan 22 at 2308, rock at S8-S9, 2309 English
talk with background noise, ``-- Dog? Radio``, ``if you don`t like it,
tune your radio to a different frequency``. Hmmm, hadn`t thought of
that. Bet it`s not RCW Chile, a prime time for it nor on 7610. These
say it`s Goatherder Radio, a Zekey station:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,91989.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 22 at 2258 direct, S9+15/25 of open carrier: then
I barely hear the VOT IS JBM, 2300 unreadable sign-on. So today`s
transmitter is the one which hardly modulates. Over to the pirate
band, where there is *over* modulation. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K. Audioviewed another webcast of Radio Emma Toc by Jim Salmon,
Sat Jan 22 at 1600-1800 UT; continuous talk, calling out to a few
chatters, several brief AV clips mostly about offshore pirate radio.
Said he was recording and entirety would be available for replay:
https://www.mixcloud.com/live/RadioEmmaToc/
and so it is, in brief check afterwards. Next one will be on
anniversary of original RET, Mon Feb 14. Has been on WRMI and Channel
292 before and plans some more SW sometime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2122 monitoring: confirmed Sat Jan
22 after 1700 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed starting at 2029 Sat Jan 22 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, S9+11
into nearby MO SDR. Next:

0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW
0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0530]
1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670

check on a US bank to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Jan 22 at 0807 UT, not a typo, WTWW-1 is still on with
PPPP, S9+40. Therefore, 5085 WTWW-2 must also be on: yes, S9+40 of
rock music. How much longer? 5085 is on again before 2300 since it`s
Saturday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.605, Jan 21 at 2201 & 2226 chex via UTwente, R. Cairo
is on at S9+25/35 but almost dead air in English, occasional traces of
modulation peaks. Wiggle that patchcord! Would that the fix were that
simple. Something`s always egregious at Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ITALY [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO is scheduled to be pre-empted once
a month on third Friday by IRRS at 1915, and indeed at 1918 check Jan
21, music is playing on 7290 via Bulgaria, into UTwente, weak with
QRM; and on 1323 from AM Italia. Anyway I check out the QRM situation:
918 is off leaving La Inter, Madrid to dominate. 1323 has CCI, but at
2000 via Noale SDR I hear the IRRS ``sign-off`` with the other Verdi
theme, mixing with end of minority German service from Romania, and a
long tone. We hope it will be better at 2130 for remaining airing of
WOR: see USA [and non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 94.3: On Jan 20 we got this note: ``Glenn, of
interest in the local Enid area: I see that KLGB-LP 94.3 turned in its
license on January 19, so that frequency should be open for your FMDX.
Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas``

I immediately confirmed that KLGB-LP is off the air. While ``open``
for DX, it`s also open for a much needed public radio translator from
KGOU at OU in Norman; or KUCO-FM, classical Edmond-OKC. KGOU has zero
signal into Enid except very marginally with a little tropo help from
its 88.1 relay in Woodward, especially on west side of Enid, but too
close to a local translator on 88.3. KGOU 106.3 is totally blocked by
a local; its NE OKC relay KROU 105.7 could barely make it here if it
were not for another damn gospel huxter translator on 105.5. KUCO 90.1
is marginal direct, picket-fencing and not enough for $ tereo to break
thru on caradio, or to attain full quieting. It also has
better-than-translator relays in the small towns of Woodward and
McAlester, both useless here. I notified both stations of 94.3 now
being available in Enid, and one of them is looking into it.

January 21 circa 1930 UT on caradio I check out what remain on 94.3:
another gospel huxter marginally dominates, which must be per WTFDA
Database:

``KCVW 94.3 KINGMAN KS RELIGIOUS TEACHING BOTT RADIO NETWORK 100.0
100.0 253.0 253.0 37-46-26 97-30-52 1780 Bott Radio Network
Religious Talk``

134 km = 83 statute miles, city-to-city northward. There are three
other further and weaker Kansans. It also has some CCI which must be
an Okie, most likely:

``K232FI KSPI-780 94.3 STILLWATER OK ADULT ALTERNATIVE PETE 94.3 0.25
0.25 0.0 0.0 36-10-47 97-00-38 Focus on 90s/early 2000's
alternative``

-- i.e. the translator wagging the dog of 780 branding, even tho KSPI
has had its own full FM on 93.9/93.7 for many years but separately
identified and programmed. There is also a 12 kW in Elk City, KXOO,
Classic Rock, Kool 94.

Circa 1935 UT Jan 21, I drive right up to the KLGB transmitter site
just north of Poplar intersexion with N Van Buren = US 81; just in
case its exciter still be on: no, right next to the tower I am getting
CCI from the two other stations. Sign still says ``Home of KLGB
94.3``. Last owner was Covenant Life, a church elsewhere in Enid. It
was a pretty worthless station, long dispensed with any local
programming, plugged into some gospel rock satellite service; and
frequently failing with distortion or dead air.

FCC FM Query now gets no hit for KLGB. Even tho deleted, ought to
preserve data for historical purposes! (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Jan 21 at 2300, tokEnglish from REE, S9+20
excellent to N America, much weaker //s 12030 > 11940 >>
11685-not-11670. No contest today whether to hear this or Turkey, a
JBA carrier on 5960 from East Turkistan instead. Opening news by
Justin Coe about Spain`s stance on the Ukraine/Russia situation
distracts me as JC is pronouncing the Spanish Foreign Minister as if
``Alvárez`` instead of the common MexAmerican surname Álvarez accented
on first A. But uplooked later, he`s correct: ``Ministro de Asuntos
Exteriores, Unión Europea y Cooperación, José Manuel Albares, Desde el
12 de julio de 2021``.

2307 to Amy Egan`s first feature, the 85th anniversary of Spanish
National Radio, Jan. 19, 1937. Göbbels gave fascists in Spain a 20 kW
Telefunken transmitter in 1936 first installed in Salamanca, then
moved somewhere else, and finally to Madrid with Franco`s victory in
1939; but WTFK?? Features a song by a partisan altho Argentine-born.

2318 ID, another song, and another feature about the long-running
series on TVE, `Cuéntame` - or in English, Remember When? but said to
be equivalent to the American series `The Wonder Years`. It`s still
being renewed after 20 years. Stories of a fixional family thru the
years, set first in 1968y, thru the death of Franco in November 1975,
now reaching the 1990s (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Fri Jan 21 at 2300 & 2330 chex direct, JBA carrier,
so no contest whether to listen to English from VOT or from SPAIN
which is inbooming on 9690. As suspected, at 2333 check of UTwente, no
VOT at all, just Chinese from East Turkistan, std. remark (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2122 monitoring: pre-empted as
expected from 1915 on IRRS 7290 & 1323 this third Friday January 21;
see ITALY [and non]. Confirmed Fri Jan 21 when next scheduled, 2130 on
AM Italia only: unlike before 2000 as heard via nearby Noale SDR, 1323
is also clear of QRM so Romania is off by now? S9+10. No longer
chopped off air before ending, heard complete to 2159, with a slight
rippling SAH from algo. Not much ACI either. Not on 918 or 207.

Barely confirmed UT Saturday January 22 at 0230 on WRMI 9395: JBA
carrier direct = 9455 and 9955 only slightly better JBA. Remotes?
Nothing to Colombia but beamed NNW; does not reach Winnipeg; JBA S5-S7
to Knoxville; S6 noisy, and lessening to Missouri SDR. Next:

partying. John Carver agrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
