** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Wed Dec 15 at 1548, no signal from
LRA36 into Pardinho, Brasil SDR. BUT: I again tuned in too late
because Sam Sánchez reported at 1512: ``[WOR] LRA36 Antarctica - Hello
again! 15475.98 USB via KiwiSDR Pardinho, Brasil, 1453 - "You're the
one that I want", Olivia Newton John and John Travolta (from the
musical, "Grease"). ID at 1500. Sam Sanchez, Oregon, USA`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.589, Dec 15 at 2113, into UTwente, R. Cairo is S9+30 of
dead air except for some hum, but the mistimesignal is detected ending
at 2115:08 --- wow, that`s close, presumably initiating the inaudible
English sesquihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Dec 15 at 2315, no signal from VOT English
into Virginia SDR; nor to UTwente where only the Chinese station is
heard. Nor on any of the five other TRT frequencies scheduled until
2130 or 2200. But at 2327 recheck, now VOT is on 5960 at S9+40/50 into
UTwente, talking about Iran. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler.

Recheck again Dec 16 at 0013, VOT is *still* on running its
multilingual ID loop filler, and 0015 into German with Chinese JBA
under; by 0024 recheck, VOT is finally off uncovering what is really
PBS Xinjiang, Mandarin, from Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, land of
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems. It`s as
if the TRT sleepyrator were compensating for joining English late by
adding on part of German hour not supposed to be on SW now at all. Or
maybe the ole clock on the wall is running really slow? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Dec 14 at 0243, VP signal but seems to be RHC back here
since it sounds same as 6000 English, and there is nothing on 6165
where it resounded last night; nor 6145. May it stay away from 6160;
except when TOMBS is on that, most of the time. Something`s sometimes
right at RHC. 0736 recheck, all RHCs are off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, Dec 14 at 2213, RHC Spanish S9+20/30 but distorted.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11850, Dec 14 at 2220, RHC Spanish S9+20 but trace of distorted
modulation, and parasitic spur JBA on 11840, while its twin on 11860
is still blocked by R Martí which is also atop jamming. SAWA.

11760, Dec 14 at 2220, RHC Spanish with hum, S9 and dead air. SAWA.

11880, Dec 14 at 2221, RHC English succeeds with broad weather report,
temps from the Chief Meteorologist (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.6, Dec 14 at 2212, R. Cairo is on at S8-S9 direct but
only a trace of modulation presumably English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Tue Dec 14 after 1600, quick check of UTwente
reconfirms that Kashmir Civitas via Romania is still gone (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 9870 & 9780, Dec 15 at 0100, no signal from KBS
World Radio Spanish via Greenville, which they had publicized as a
test on 9780, Dec 12 & 13, only? for better reception than 11880. But
Ivo Ivanov and Wolfgang Bueschel say 9870 was the frequency per HFCC.
Now I`m not hearing more than a JBA carrier on 11880 so a descent is
indeed called for, maybe even lower (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NICARAGUA. 8989-USB, Dec 14 at 2218, JBA trace of talk, presumably
the pescador preacher circumNic. Seldom hear anything when
bandscanning around this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6924.9 AM, S4-S5 and 6920.0 AM, S5-S6, Dec 14 at
2228 both with JBA pirate music. This pair are very active, almost
every evening? But always too weak here. Latest HFU logs show:
Radio Pushka 6920:

unID on 6924.8 but lately has been Coastal Rock Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,90284.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 8992-USB, Dec 14 at 2217, cryptic EAN alfanumeric message
with self-imposed whine and reverb; quickly finding the same on
15016-USB and 4724-USB. EiBi calls these US Air Force Messages, also
on a fourth channel 11175, all 24 hours, and SSB never specified
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2116 monitoring: confirmed Tue Dec 14 at 2330
on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20 direct, but fading down to S3-S7 by 2348 and
gone before 2400. Next:

** U S A [and non]. 5800, Dec 14 at 2225, WRMI-10 with SMTV, weaker
than // 9395. 5800 runs 24 hours including TOMBS overnight; I notice
that FRS Holland plans 5800 as one of its frequencies for December
Special Sunday Dec 19 at 0852-1330 UT, but also 7700, 6185. Obviously
timed for daytime Europe, not N America. That late, maybe 5800 WRMI
will not be a problem over there; and maybe we could hear 7700 over
here, while 6185 signal if any would be blocked by Mexico (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Dec 14 at 2216, zero signal from Flatearthic Worlds
Last Chance Radio via WBCQ, crashed again and no exciter on 9333
either. Not a prop problem since neighbor 9265V WINB is still S9+10/20
with TOMBS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6115, Dec 14 at 2227, WWCR-1 is still inoperable here but
instead I hear some RTTY centred about 6114, INTRUDING (Glenn Hauser,

** CUBA. 6165, Dec 13 at 0400, RHC English is back here after a spell
on 9700, just in time to impose ACI splash upon much weaker 6160- WBCQ
and WORLD OF RADIO. Shux, but we`ll see if permanent or not. 9700 did
clash with Turkey at 0400-0700 but RHC usually well atop here. 6165 is
still on with dead air of S9+20/30 at 0729. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.588v, Dec 13 at 2145, R. Cairo still trying to
broadcast in English and failing miserably: S9+20/25 into UTwente, but
modulation of totally distorted spikes only; I rip off my headphones
in disgust, but from the table I hear a 3+1 mis-timesignal at 2200:49,
a bit of the theme; and at 2204.6 cuts off the air ceding to noise
level. UTwente still receiving at 2220 when it`s putting out amid the
hash, electronic tones of seemingly random pitch and length, perhaps
an artifact of trying to synch on the non-signal? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** FRANCE. 15285.070V, Dec 13 at 1615, S3-S5 of talk, the frequency
audibly wavering. It`s Issoudun with R. Manara International in Hausa.
Previously measured during same hour Nov 27 at 15285.052. See also SAO
TOME (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.071, Dec 13 at 1613, S4-S6 of talk, VOA
Pinheira in Kinyarwanda scheduled, typical offfrequenciness here; I
bet the earlier ``15460`` VOA hours via Vatican, Botswana be a lot
closer. Previously measured during same hour Nov 27 at 15460.070,
within margin of error. See also FRANCE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Dec 13 at 2311, REE`s token English after the
news, presents the full speech of Nobel Peace Prize winner from the
Philippines, Maria Ressa, an excellent advocate for Freedom of the
Press. Unfortunately, REE is going into deeper and deeper fades into
the local high Xmas noise level and I give up about halfway through.
Quick check of the other three frequencies finds zero signals on
11670, 11940, 12030, not propagating and/or not on the air. Her speech
should be available somewhere, eventually in REE archive (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565 CW, Dec 13 at 1610, HIFER beacon K6FRC, Patterson CA,
is JBA then increasing to BA; latest in day yet logged but always in
the mornings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2116 monitoring: not confirmed
Sunday December 12 at 2100 on AM Italia, 918 kHz, still running the
Marconi anniversary special loop, as heard via Noale SDR.

Confirmed Sunday December 12 at 2352 the 2330 on WRMI 5950 but JBA to
Bonaire, and 9955 at S9+5. Then to Missouri SDR, 5950 is S8+35/25 and
9955 S6-S9. At Bonaire, NO signal on 4980, should be audible if
propagating, since 5010 WRMI is there. No 4980 either to Missouri.
Another example of self-contradictory WRMI skedgrid info: System L
shows 5950 only but transmitter sked atop shows System L also applies
to 4980 at 23-24. Apparently 4980 at 23-24 is really M-F only during
APS Radio program. WOR did appear once on 4980, Fri Dec 3 at 2330
before APS launched. Now that broadcast is on neither.

Also confirmed UT Monday December 13 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S5-S7 into
Missouri vs hi noise level, but improved to S9+10/25 at 0047.

Also confirmed UT Monday December 13 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+5/S7 to
Missouri; but at 0138 NO signal direct.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 13 at 0230 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 13 at 0400 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-,
carrier minus 45 Hz = 6159.955 to Knoxville SDR, JBA to S2-S4 -- as
RHC has moved back to 6165 from 9700 just in time to resume QRMing us
with much stronger signal, no better but carrier offset shows minus 52
Hz = 6159.948. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?]
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 5010 to S

** ANTARCTICA. Correxion: the surprise was Sat Dec 4 not Wed; fixed:
15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Dec 11 at 1523 & 1556 chex, NO signal from LRA36
into Brasil remote, despite surprise appearance last Sat Dec 4 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, UT Sun Dec 12 at 0735, RHC English S9+30 here while all
other frequencies are off, music show. RHC does feature some good
music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ITALY. Advance publicity that AM Italia, 918 kHz would also be
broadcasting on LW 207 kHz on Dec 12 to mark the 120th anniversary of
Marconi`s trans-Atlantic transmission from Cornwall to Newfoundland.
207 would run 1 kW into a 350-meter wire antenna.

Via Noale SDR near Villa Estense, Dec 12 at 0618 UT, traces of a
carrier on 207 kHz, while on 918 I hear some tones, and Italian
narration about the historical event. S, ... in CW over and over again
at 0624. Maybe this is a loop. 0625 brief announcement about this in
English, offering QSL. And repeat the Italian. At 0628 on 207 sounds
like the same thing, but very poor unreadable there with hashy QRM,
and then fast CW QRM, maybe image on that SDR.

Some Europeans could hear 207 with difficulty, and the same was also
reported on 918; and 1323 kHz, which is not listed in WRTH 2021 as
anywhere in Italy. The loop may continue thruout Dec 12 and into Dec
13 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, Dec 12 at 0253, soft jazz at S7-S9. 0257 ID
by YL as ``--- Radio``. These say it`s Ball Smacker Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,90151.0.html
gone at 0410 recheck. At 0253 also had JBA carriers on 6925-, 6920,
6885. HFU indicates usuals 6925 Coastal Rock R, 6920 R. Pushka but
nothing on 6885 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Dec 12 at 1552, no signal from REE frequency for S
America, which ought to be detectable, since 11670 for Africa is, as
well as 12030 ME, 9690 NAm, but all VP with silly ballgame (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2116 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
December 11 at 2058 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, about 17
minutes into so started circa 2041, S9+10 into nearby Warrenton
KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed UT Sun Dec 12 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 S9+5 into MO SDR;
and 5950, S9+20/30. The 5950 airing is to be replaced by `Postcard
Panorama: A Shortwave Radio Conversation` from January.

Also confirmed UT Sun Dec 12 at 0501 UT on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, about
9 minutes into so started late circa 0452; VG into nearby KB0FX SDR.

** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Dec 12 at 0103, WTWW-2 webcast with `Theater
Organ Under the Arch`, TOUTA underway with Xmasmx in $ tereo. Usually
starts considerably before 0100v. This hour conflicts with `Encore`
classical music on WRMI 5850, so will have to be sure to catch that on
next repeat UT Monday 0300 on 5950, when best reception will be needed
via a remote; no webcast to hear that in $ tereo. TOUTA ends at 0151.7
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 3360, UT Sun Dec 12 at 0415, WWRB S9+10/20 with gospel
huxter, new experimental? frequency presumably 0200-0500v UT Sun,
0200-0400v on UT Mon but not on weekdays. So far I don`t see anyone
else reporting this; due to total lack of interest? (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A [and non]. 9275, Dec 12 at 1549, VG S9/+10 signal, could be
WMLK? NO! Chinese pop music, so FEBC Philippines until 1600. WMLK
supposedly will not start until 1700. Website progress report as of
Dec 12 linx to disgraced FB:

UNIDENTIFIED. 5970, Dec 12 at 0736, JBA carrier, surely not WEWN
Spanish unless exciter only as neighbor WWCR inbooms S9+30 on 5935,
