											|  ** ANGOLA. 4949.732, April 1 at 0132, JBA carrier, presumed RNA on
 signature off-frequency - checked just as I am mentioning on 9395
 during WOR that Ron Howard had found them missing. Also an even weaker
 carrier close to 4950.0, likely AIR Srinagar, Kashmir --- neither in
 HFCC but in Aoki/NDXC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CANADA. 328 kHz, April 1 at 0617, dash and YTL from NDB beacon at Big Trout Lake, Ont., 1000 watts. Really remote, fly-in only in NW
 Ont., beyond Pickle Lake, almost 90 west, 54 north. 2031 km = 1262
 miles from here. Also got three de USA, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK,
 DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA [and non]. 7355, April 1 at 0042, wall-of-noise jamming against no MartÃ, which seems jamfree on 7335 // 7365. Way to go,
 incompetent DCJC on first day of new season! HFCC A-19 registrations
 for IBB in Spanish from Greenville-B, which mean precisely nothing but
 RM:
 23-03 7365  00-07 7335  00-12 6030  03-05 7435  05-07 7365  07-10 5980
 10-13 9805  10-14 7335  12-14 7365  13-20 13605 14-20 11860 M-F
 14-24 11930 20-24 9565
 We sincerely hope this non-classified info assist DCJC to jam correct
 frequencies and no others! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 6165, April 1 at 0049, RHC English is instead S9+20 of dead air; while 6000 has undermodulated music at S9+10/20. Something`s
 always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 11670, April 1 at 0100, RHC news theme for Spanish is S9 but JBM, much softer than 11700, 11760, 11840 and its 11830/11850 spurs.
 Spain is now scheduled on 11670 until 2300 so will those ever collide?
 Not sure when RHC start, where something always be wrong (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 6165, April 1 at 0544, RHC English survey during music: this one is S9-S6 and JBM; 6100 S9+10 suptorted; 6060 S9+20 slightly
 distorted and Algerian Qur`anRM is gone! 6000 S9/+10 JBM and
 distorted; 5040 S9+30 about like 6060.
 Rechecking at 0606+, 6165 JBM; 6100 undermod; 6000 OFF; 6060 & 5040 both with CCI --- no it`s not, rather undercurrent during voice-over
 translation, self-QRM! When will SW stations ever learn to fade the VO
 down completely once briefly established?? Something`s always wrong at
 RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 4764.999, April 1 at 0327, R. Progreso VG signal measured here with margin of error of 2 Hz at most. And it matches 5025 BFO
 pitch. Anker Petersen, Denmark has been reporting this as 4765.02,
 such as March 24 at 0330, but I have never noticed them that far off
 in BFO 1-kHz-step bandscans. Some of his other logs such as Eritrea
 and Mali appear to be measured +.01 or +.02 too high. Please check
 receiver calibration vs WWV or the like (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** ERITREA. 7180.024, April 1 at 0325, JBA carrier, presumed VOBME, but nothing on other channel 7140+; nor still inactive Somaliland 7120
 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** IRAN [non]. 12005, April 1 at 1418, SW Asian music S7-S8, from Radio Farda, eastward from Woofferton at 13-18 (also Lampertheim at
 11-13) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** JAPAN [non]. 9625, April 1 at 1420, Japanese lesson for English with arpeggios, as NHK 1400-1430 is now here, due west from PALAU.
 Ignore all the South Africa listings on 9625 still in HFCC A-18 (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** MALI. 5995.000V, April 1 at 0550, R. Mali is already on with song of lament in French, S9 and best heard yet. 0556 apparent switch to IS
 repeating; 0557 military-band NA, sign-on in French I copy partially
 vs distraxions, including ``Ici l`Office de Radiodiffusion TÃlÃvision
 du Mali, ÃmÃttant de Bamako,`` and decades-outdated frequency list
 including 4783 and another on 60m! And 92 MHz FM (four-score and
 twelve). With BFO, frequency wavers very slightly. By 0602 is in non-
 French, probably Bambara. Anker Petersen, Denmark, has reported this
 on 5995.02, such as March 25 at 2120, but again I think his
 measurement is way off. Please calibrate (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** NEW ZEALAND. 5980, April 1 at 1416, RNZI is poor S5-S7 on new frequency, bad for us. Maybe usable somewhat from *1259 if the Cuban
 jammers be turned off in time (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** NORTH AMERICA. 6889-USB, March 31 at 2227, folk/rock song at S3-S4, not rechecked until 0038 April 1 when it`s off. Already at 2232* per
 several logs of this pirate as Evergreen Radio:
 https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,52472.0.html
 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** ROMANIA. 7420, April 1 at 0043, Balkan music, good S9+20; at first imagined Greece ex-9420 or mistake? EPT is usually silent early UT
 Mondays; in fact this is the RRI Romanian service now, as spoken at
 0054 and // 9790.
 7375, April 1 at 0044, RRI English now here giving schedule during a mailbag, much stronger than // 6040 at 0048 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST) See also SAO TOME 6080
 ** SAO TOME [and non]. 6080+, April 1 at 0548, VOA news magazine in English, S9+20 but with fast SAH CCI. We already know Pinheira is the
 one off-frequency, but now the collider is RRI in English, 300 kW to W
 Europe and USWard at 0530-0600, also French 0500-0530, while VOA runs
 04-07. How is this acceptable to HFCC?? Surprised RRI be the
 understation, but that may change with conditions (Glenn Hauser, OK,
 DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** TURKEY. 9830, March 31 at 2225, VOT in English, S8-S9 with flutter, back on always-A-season frequency to North America at 22 instead of
 5960 at 23 in Bs. No RTTY now, but 9830 fully occupied earlier in day:
 we can only hope it will always quit by 2158. Will Emirler knock this
 one off to 9830.7 at times too? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
 DIGEST)
 ** U K. 7300, April 1 at 0040, sounds like BBCWS in science magazine, now about LEO satellites, S9/+10. 0058 wrap up `Science in Axion`,
 0059.5* chop off. HFCC shows Woofferton eastward this hour only.
 Offers a decent chance to hear in its long-abandoned N American target
 area (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 245 kHz, April 1 at 0612 UT, ND beacon FS is JBA! Is at Rock, Sioux Falls, South Dakota, 400 watts per dxinfocentre. LW storm
 noise level is unusually low so I take advantage for some sleepytime
 beepery.
 293 kHz, April 1 at 0615 UT, ND beacon FBY, which is 25 watts from Fairbury, Nebraska.
 329 kHz, April 1 at 0618, ND beacon PMV, 25 watts from Plattsmouth, Nebraska (a flood area, I think). Also logged one from CANADA, q.v.
 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1975 monitoring: Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reports: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on
 7265 CUSB, March 31
 https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/04/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on.html
 1031-1100 on  7265 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg to CeEu English Sun, weak``
 Confirmed Sunday March 31 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, poor S5-S7.  Also confirmed UT Monday April 1 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+20 (and still not on 5950).
 Also confirmed UT Monday April 1 after 0230 on WRMI 7780, fair S9/+10. Also confirmed UT Monday April 1 from 0301 on Area 51 webcast; and at 0323 on WBCQ 5130.41, VP and not // 3264.9.
 Also confirmed UT Monday April 1 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, JBA. Next: Oops, missed checking new time 1800 Monday April 1 on IRRS 7290 Romania; but another SWL program VG via UTwente at 1840

 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 7490.15v, UT Mon April 1 at 0045, sacred choral music, S9+10 on `Encore` from Radio Tumbril via WBCQ. Brice Avery in Edinburgh is
 disappointed in lack of listener response to his new WBCQ broadcasts,
 in the form of QSL requests. Lack of any listing on the outdated WBCQ
 program schedule, nor any publicity on its website, surely do not
 help. Still showing for UT Mon 00-01 on 7490 is `Shoot the Darn
 Messenger`. He welcomes music requests and has had much better
 response to broadcasts via Channel 292 in Germany. Let`s show him some
 support! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. Area 51 webcast flowed on, UT Mon Apr 1 at 0400 after HRI and WBCQ 5130v presumably closed down --- with `Church of the
 Subgenius Hour of Slack`, reveling in how many F-bombs could be
 exploded on internet only. I had thought that show was a bit more
 erudite (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 5050, April 1 at 0050, WWRB reactivated on A-frequency with politico-gospel huxters at S9+40. Likely the only frequency in use, no
 more 3185 or 3215; unless some Ugandans give it another try (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 7505v, April 1 at 0541, WRNO is S5-S9 of dead air; in Chinese or English? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST

 7) Update to UT offset notations for Croatia, Germany, Greece,

 Unless there's a major change anywhere, the next update will be in late April. Best wishes and 73 (Alan Roe, March 30, DXLD)
 ** CUBA [and non]. 13605, March 31 at 1401, Radio Martà is S9+20 unjammed, having just made the totally predictable A-season switch
 from 13820, where the wall of noise remains. Something`s always wrong
 at the DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
 DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 11880, March 31 at 1425, China Plus relay in English on NF for A-19, ex-15700; S9+20 and somewhat undermodulated as required.
 Earlier, Wolfgang Bueschel had accumulated the A-19 sked for these
 relays, via QuivicÃn site:

 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** NEW ZEALAND. 9630, March 31 at 0553, RNZI with C&W music on NF for A-19, S9+10, the SSOB by fair, virtually the OSOB, and ex-25m is
 essentially dead. No het, as R. Aparecida, Brasil, has been missing
 from 9630.5v lately, but it`ll be a hetmess should it resume! A bad
 pick for RNZI, now sked daily 0459-0658; then 5945, and from 1259 on
 5980 as yet unchecked here. RNZ National program times within will
 shift one UT hour later on April 7 when NZ go off wacky DST of UT +13.
 At least that match DST offdate in Australiaparts now (Glenn Hauser,
 OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** OKLAHOMA. 1640, March 31 at 0610 UT, KZLS ``Enid`` is dead air; by next check at 1400 UT has added a big hum, but still no programod
 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** OKLAHOMA. 27185-AM, March 30 at 1731 on caradio, loop of ``Happy Birthday to You`` by amateur pianist, occasionally interrupted, but
 still/again going at 1930. Our local Enid CB pirate (Glenn Hauser, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** ROMANIA. 7320-7325-7330, March 30 at 0551, DRM noise at S5, now RRI as scheduled 0530-0600 in English, plus 0600-0630 German. (WINB is
 also registered for same DRM frequency span at 07-09 M-F, 07-10
 Sat/Sun) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** SOUTH AFRICA [non]. 7285-LSB, March 31 at 0441, VA5AA calling CQ contest, before Radio Sonder Grense would be on here anyway, but still
 no RSG at 0550, RSA SW gone for good. Others noted its finale on 3320
 a few hours earlier. So NAmhams get a frequency back. QRZ.com shows
 VA5AA is: Mason John Hnatiw in REGINA, SK S4V 1V2 Canada --- that`s
 Witanh spelt backwards (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** TURKEY. 9515, March 31 at 0306, VOT English to N America at S9-S7. I had no luck for the earlier broadcast March 30 at 22 or 23 on 9830
 or 5960, so this is my first A-19 QSY confirmation. Surely this will
 sidekick to 9515.7 at times (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A [non]. 15180, March 31 at 1430, YL in SW/C Asian service? at S2-S4 but one of few signals on band. HFCC A-19 shows it`s IBB in
 Uzbek this hour, 300 kW, 80 degrees from Woofferton UK, i.e. Radio
 Liberty (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A [non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1974 monitoring: Manuel MÃndez, Spain, reports: ``6190, Hamburger LokalRadio, Goehren, *0700-0800, 30-03,
 English, ID âHamburger LokalRadioâ, programs âMedia Network Plus and

 ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1975 monitoring: not confirmed, Saturday March 30 at 1531 on HLR 9485-CUSB; monitoring via UTwente,
 inaudible, altho earlier circa 1520 I thought I heard a trace of Keith
 Perron during MN+.
 Confirmed Sat Mar 30 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, poor S4-S5; also confirmed UT Sun Mar 31 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, very good. Also confirmed UT Sun

 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 UNIDENTIFIED. 4774.975, March 31 after 0600, romantic? song at S7 vs double-CODAR swooshes. I seldom pull any modulation here. First
 thought is Brasil or Perà which insist on colliding with each other;
 but if you believe Aoki sked, neither would be on between 04 & 07.
 Instead, TWR English is on 4775 until 0700 --- but Manzini sunrise was
 already at 0403 today, surely too late for them. So I refine the
 frequency (and maybe there is a second carrier almost the same), which
 points to S America. I found one report of TWR only 8 Hz low, while
 here`s a typical comparison of Brasil and Perà by Carlos GonÃalves
 from June 2016y: ``PERU 4774.946 R. Tarma, Tarma, 2232-2240, 02/6,
 canÃÃes Ãndias; 34433, QRM do Brasil [Congonhas] em 4774.914`` (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 UNIDENTIFIED. 12031, March 30 at 1606 check, the extremely distorted spurblob is finally gone, no QRM to SPAIN. I had been hearing it at
 various times every day March 26-27-28-29. We may never know what it
 was (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

											|  ** CUBA. 15700, March 27 at 1431, China Plus relay is S9+30 but
 suptorted. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 13661.5 & 13738.8 approx., March 28 at 1443, buzzes centered about 13700, more spurs out of that RHC in addition to the bigger ones
 plus/minus 28.3 kHz. Then I have some modulation about 13634.7 during
 apparent asymmetrical multiple spur carrier peaks. Something`s always
 wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 6000, March 29 at 0530, RHC English S9+10 but JBM; 6060 is S9+20/30 with good modulation but CCI and SAH from Algerian Qur`an via
 FRANCE; 6100 S9+10/20 undermodulated; 6165 S9 but JBM; 5040 S9+20/30
 loud; talk is about slavery. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 15700, March 29 at 1415, China Plus relay is JBA S5-S7, fadey, maybe also undermodulated. Usually this inbooms whatever the
 modprob. Cuba is about all one can hear in the morns on 19m: 15825
 WWCR & 15770 WRMI being JBA to JBA carriers. How about the RHCs? 15140
 is steady S9 but suptorted; 15230 weaker S5-S6 and not distorted.
 Can`t have everything. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** MALI. 5995, March 27 at 0612, R. Mali finally audible in this daypart: poor S3-S4 of African language; Cuba off 6000 already.
 5995, March 27 at 2359, African song, S9+20 but ACI; some widely-spaced tones maybe own timesignal? Or from 5990/6000 Cuba; by 0000
 March 28, 5995 is off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** NORTH AMERICA. 6880-USB, March 30 at 0115, rock music the only pirate found; 0118, 0125, 0137 YL IDs as Mix Radio
 International/Worldwide; S7-S9; off by 0256 recheck. More logs:
 https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,52390.0.html
 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS. 9985, March 27 at 1534, RFA Korean is S9-S5, from now confirmed refurbished Saipan antenna. I don`t hear any
 jamming on this; does DPRK try? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
 DIGEST)
 ** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, March 27 at 1500 UT, Classical KUCO-FM manager Brad Ferguson, after Stardate, in pledge drive, says this is the first full
 day they are on full power from new transmitter, 100 kW ERP, new
 processor and antennas; and want reports about improved reception. He
 asked me directly how it is in Enid. Transmitter power is 38 kW.
 I checked around 19-20 UT as I was driving around. Altho the signal seemed somewhat stronger overall, I had to tell him:
 still picket-fencingstill subject to Vance aircraft multipath Doppler flutter
 still blocked by noise at traffic signals
 still not breaching stereo threshold, tho caradio shows ST; it blends
 rather than separates
 unlike 91.7 KOSU, 92.5 KOMA and many other OKC stations rock-solid
 Later he explained that KUCO had been running only 20 kW ERP from old transmitter; that side-mounting antenna on mast has been positioned
 for max lobes up I-44 to the NE and down I-35 to the S. No doubt that
 makes sense demographically. So away they go! That explains why there
 is not much improvement here to the NNW, still a need for a
 translator, if it could get a perfect signal input, perhaps from the
 feedline to KBCW and KCSC relays.
 EARLIER as installation was underway, Chris Stevens of RFSolutions wrote, ``Once this is complete it will be pretty much the top of the
 line radio site in terms of power, efficiency and technology. We are
 running the best processors you can get into the best transmitter you
 can want. Add in the efficiency of liquid cooled and itâs a perfect
 combination with remote control capabilities that Captain Kirk would

 ** U S A. 7490.15, UT Sat March 30 at 0050, WBCQ is playing a lot of music, DJ Larry Will, Jane, et al., so is it really called Allan
 Weiner Worldwide? Live timechex, said would go off at 0100 and
 continue on 3265 ---- but 7490 did not cut off until 0113* after more
 music. John Carver files his fuller report:
 ``Tonight's show started at 0001 after an audio clip from One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest. No voice overs during the theme song, then a
 clip of Allan flying off the handle about moonbats then into music
 which told me that Larry and Jane Will were doing the show this
 evening. Larry said that Allan and Angela were off on super, secret
 business for the station. Some talk of this week's special HAARP
 broadcasts, then a short description of what HAARP was and consisted
 of. Then a synopsis of all of the conspiracy theories involving HAARP.
 Some more music.
 Then some talk of Ken Nordine and playing one of his bits from the record collection from the old WXM. A refreshing change from last
 week`s Gloom and Doom show. A brief rundown about 3265 and the birth
 of the Falling Star Network. Said that Monday thru Friday 0100 to 0500
 the programming came from Area 51 and Area 51 programmers. Said they
 are still running low power during this testing period and are still
 experimenting with different antenna systems though no technical
 details included.
 Phone call at 0049 from Ramsey then into more music. Program was off the air at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 7505v, March 28 at 0100, WRNO is back on after a few nights? off, S9 but just barely modulated. March 29 at 0125, now it`s VG
 S9+10/20 with fully modulated gospel huxter; 0522 hymn at S9+20 (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 UNIDENTIFIED. 2940.14, March 28 at 0540, harmonic with the most modulation yet but still too weak, seems YL talking but can`t tell
 language. At 0548 an OM instead. Have been presuming it`s 2 x
 1470.07v, but since 2+9+4 = 15, a multiple of 3, this could also be a
 third harmonic of 980+.
 http://mwlist.org/mwoffset.php?khz=980
 shows a few remote possibilities (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
 DIGEST)
 UNIDENTIFIED. 12031, March 27 at 1437, approx. peak of extremely distorted blob at S5-S6; ``modulation`` cadence of some talk but
 totally unreadable; compared to RHC and Martà frequencies, but NO
 match. 12050 is a JBA carrier, presumably WEWN Spanish which unseems
 source, but if so is putting most of its power out here.
 12031 blob is still there at 2024 March 27 and now QRMing 12030 Spain when tuned to LSB. 12050 has two weak signals presumably WEWN and
 Ascension. So it`s on long hours and propagating, but not heard later
 in afternoon, evening.
 12031v blob is still2 there at 1452 March 28 before Spain is on weekdays. FM mode tuning makes it sound a bit more like speech,
 totally unreadable past 1500 and again not matching OCB or RHC.
 12031 blob extends up to 12040, March 29 at 1418, QRMing TURKEY 12035.7. (12050 WEWN is VP but sounds OK) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF

								| WOR and DXLD delays |   |

											|  WORLD OF RADIO and DX LISTENING DIGEST delays:
 As you may have noticed, I have been producing these every week now for many years without a break. It`s been my pleasure and passion to
 do so. But I have been rather ill the past week, as some medical
 issues are catching up with me, cutting into the very long hours I
 needed to spend editing and typing at the desktop (in the long run,
 this may be a good thing...)
 I was already running about a week behind in completing a DXLD issue after it was used as content for a WOR edition, while ideally, as once
 was possible, it would be complete or almost complete by recording
 time.
 As of early UT March 27: DXLD 19-12 material as on WOR 1974 is still in raw unedited form, not ready for publication.
 I have been gathering material for DXLD 19-13 and WOR 1975, but that process is not caught up yet. 1975 will not likely be ready for
 broadcast even later on Wed Mar 27.
 If I don`t lose too much more editing time, I am thinking of finishing 19-13 first to avoid falling further behind; and working on completing
 19-12 later on the side when possible.
 I know stations and listeners depend on and expect a new edition every week but for the time being, I must ask people to stand by. Stations
 please just repeat 1974 until 1975 is notified or uploaded.
 One thing I can still do is DX, as I was already DXing while on the bed most of the time! I will try to keep producing my log reports
 without too much delay.
 Thanks for your understanding --- Glenn |  |

 Thanks for your understanding --- Glenn ** ALASKA. Caught the last part of Amanda Dawn Christie`s experimental transmissions via HAARP, UT Wednesday March 27, after referring to the
 schedule at:
 https://www.ghostsintheairglow.space/transmissions
 which confusingly refers to this day as ``March 26+1``
 At 0239 and still at 0240, 4500 to the east is S9+10 with CODAR QRM, SSTV; noting heard on 4400 to the west. This is contrary to her sked
 for Sexion VII at 0233-0239 which said 4500 would be ``NATO fonetik
 alfabet x 3``, and 4400 would be ``counting to one hundred``.
 The same frequencies continue for Sexion VIII, at 0239:30-0245:30. Retune to 4400-AM at 0245 just in time to hear the fonetik letters; I
 think the last three were TAY, and off at 0245.5. Considerably weaker
 than 4500 as to be expected, which at 0246 has been restored to CODAR
 only.
 0246, frequencies have changed for Section IX, ``Spy Cameras from the Sky, and a Mystery Box in the Woods``: 6900-AM to the east is S9+10/20
 with somewhat muffled and lo-key YL narration, mostly unreadable with
 possibly local device QRM, but I pick out a few bits, describing an
 object: ``On Sunday December 1``; ``who gave you the authority?``;
 ``RCMP``. Also some music in background. At 0254 it suddenly switches
 to SSTV, and then find it sounding the same as on S9 5100 to the west.
 Both stop before 0256*
 0256.5, the only and final frequency is 3200, for Sexion IX, ``Not with a bang but with a WSPR``. This is the weakest, S5-S7 and is, as
 not specified, a CW message, which I am not recording and not up to
 speed to copy live, seeming repeated a few times until off at 0259:30*
 There have been many other running reports of this from WOR iog contributors, which I have not digested before writing my report. I
 assume most or all will be posted audiovisually (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
 LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, March 26 at 2145, RAE Italian via WRMI is rather in Spanish for a dramatic reading with dramatic music of
 something by Borges about the tango; no translation necessary,
 apparently. 2152 back into real Italian for headlines also with
 annoying music, 2153 ciao! And WRMI 9395 ID, Oldies music fill at S8-
 S5, 2159 VOA ``news`` not quite on the hour --- so must have been
 recorded at least an hour ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CHINA [and non]. 12120, March 26 at 1432 Chinese with sounder, S6 with flutter, also constant RTTY and CODAR QRM. A frequency a
 broadcaster should avoid, but not VOA PHILIPPINES in Mandarin this
 hour, so I am not sure whether this is the CNR1 jammer or not. Before
 1400, FEBC is on 12120, and even earlier KTWR --- I hope listeners
 aren`t thinking VOA is also a gospel huxter by the company it keep
 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** CUBA. 4765, March 27 at 0050, R. Progreso is on with mostly music, well atop CODAR above and below. A while ago, Wolfgang Bueschel was
 wondering if they were really starting at 0030 now as he was not
 hearing them that early; must have been an anomaly (Glenn Hauser, OK,
 DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** ROMANIA. 5935-5940-5945, March 26 at 0552, DRM noise at S4-S5, which is RRI Tsiganeshti as scheduled this semihour in Russian (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also UNID 5850
 ** SPAIN [and non]. 12030, March 26 at 1819, REE has heavy QRM from an extremely distorted and wide signal from 12021 to 12039 approx. At
 first I suspect a Noblejas transmitter is acting up again, but the
 ``modulation`` does not match up to REE-AM in the midst of it. What
 else could it be? WEWN has also broken down like this in past. But
 there own much weaker Spanish on 12050 sounds OK, and there is no spur
 match on 12070 or anywhere. At 1923, 12050 has two weak stations with
 a slow SAH, i.e. WEWN and Ndarason/Ascension. By 1922, REE is somewhat
 overcoming the QRM, another indication it`s not self. Maybe a totally
 different station mistuned to the wrong frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
 DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 5896.5-USB, March 27 at 0031, joint Air Force/Navy MARS net, mostly VP-P; calls heard include NNA6AR, AFA6UB, NCS387, NCS307 (or
 are they NPS---? only these are not fonetik); ACA70 refers to a
 different frequency but never spoken in the clear; 0037 I think they
 were to close with SSTV but too weak to hear any beepery. Amid just as
 weak broadcast signals 5890 & 5900 which are not a problem (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1974 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday March 26 at 2030 on WRMI 7780, JBA. It`s unclear when 1975 will be
 ready: see my notice atop (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 5130.48v, March 27 at 0208, WBCQ is on with dead air, no ham show audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 ** U S A. 7505v, March 27 at 0213, no signal from WRNO, which reminds me I have not heard it either for a few nights now (Glenn Hauser, OK,
 DX LISTENING DIGEST)
 UNIDENTIFIED. 5845-5850-5855, March 26 at 0552, DEM noise at S5, sounds about the same as 5940 RRI; WRMI is the only 5850 station
 anywhen in Jeff`s HFCC, available at this hour but has not been using
 it. Possibly another special for the DRM GTG on Mallorca today, from
 Okee? I don`t think WRMI has ever run DRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
