** CHINA. 13690, Sept 3 at 2211, music at S9+20 but very heavy flutter
and Doppler flutter, as appropriate for CRI Spanish via Shijiazhuan
site, 500 kW at 315 degrees, i.e. NW thru the Siberian auroral zone on
the way to target Spain, but much closer to transpolar toward here
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, Sept 3 at 0104, 0230, 0402 chex, no signal from RHC,
nor on 6000; previous night had reports from Ron Trotto and Tony
Pavick of RHC English on 9710 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Sept 2 at 2213, RHC Spanish, S9+10 and not suptorted,
much stronger on // 13780 S9+10/20; and some other music on 11760,
China? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. Chris Campbell says he got this from his RHC contact today
Sept 3:

``This is the latest information about RHC`s shortwave service. As of
yesterday, broadcasts resumed from the Nauta {sic: Bauta} Center on
transmitters 4 and 5 on frequencies 11760, 15140 and 11950 kHz. We now
have programs on shortwave. The 2:00 a.m. English program, which was
scheduled to air on 6100 kHz, is now being broadcast on 11760 because
there is no antenna for that frequency``

Then I check 15140 at 1846 and get a JBA carrier direct. After 1900
into Georgia? remote it is RHC in English but VP signal. The 1900
English broadcast had not been heard for many months. 

Further chex at 2159 direct: 15230 is on with algo, no 15140 or 13780.
At 2350, none of all these frequencies audible into Maryland SDR
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 91.3, Sept 4 at 2118 UT, local on 91.1 is off,
clearing the way for an AFR station on 91.3, which per WTFDA FMDB must
be: ``KAXR 91.3 ARKANSAS CITY KS 13.5 kW 98.0 m 36-55-32 97-01-34
RELIGIOUS TEACHING  AMERICAN FAMILY RADIO 85167``

91.1 is Air One in Enid: ``KKRD relay of:KAIV 92.7 91.1 ENID OK 0.45
kW 63.0 m 36-23-57 97-52-48 2C25 1073KKRD - CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN
AIR1 19603`` - meanwhile the adjacent Air1 on 90.9 in OKC is still
there. 

KKRD coordinates are I believe on the Broadway Tower in downtown Enid,
so I check whether another station there at exactly same coordinates
is also off? Yes! ``K288FX relay of:KYLV 88.9 105.5 NORTH ENID OK 0.25
kW 0.0 m 36-23-57 97-52-48 CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN K-LOVE 140182``

On 105.5 at 2119 I hear instead ``Cowboy Country 105.5`` which is
normally blocked: ``KGFY 105.5 STILLWATER OK 4.2 kW 119.8 m 36-10-47
97-00-38 COUNTRY COWBOY COUNTRY 105.5 22267`` By next check 2203 UT
however, 91.1 is back on and 91.3 cannot be heard; 105.5 not rechecked
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20 and 15390 JBA, Sept 2 at 2211, REE here but
still absent from 15500 & 15520 during non-English. Something`s
notright at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715 and much weaker 15390, still no 15500 or 15520, Wed
Sept 3 at 2158 we are all set for resumption of SNR English with a
publicized 1-hour weekly broadcast - but NO SHOW! 2200 instead RNE ID
(not REE) and `Futuro Abierto` program about sleeplessness - insomnia
in Spanish. 

Jean-Michel Aubier reports on the earlier Wed scheduled English: ``But
no English broadcast at 1004 (12.04 local time) on the livestream
although the website indicates a transmission at this time (Spanish
instead)`` - will they ever get their act together? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SWAZILAND. 11880, Sept 3 at 1459, tinkling TWR IS, JBA. Manzini
about to start Somali; may be long-path (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Sept 2 at 2156 & 2210, no signal direct from VOT
English, nor at 2230 into UTwente, nor on accidentalternate 9875, only

at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009+, Sept 3 at at 2158, VOT not off the air with IS,
2201 olds in English, S9+10/20 direct. Into UTwente at 2247 when

From now and for an unknown time, at least for 3years, I will not use any radio except the remote SDRs for DXing. Recently wemoved from the village back to the city in a space that prohibits the use ofdesktop DXing, a place flooded by high levels of noise in the LMHF bands. Theradio is now used mostly for FM, for news listening.we run politically livelycondition with always very interesting twits every day ..

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Re Skyview tones QRMing 780 WBBM:

``Hi Glenn - Ran this thru ChatGPT, to see what AI thought about it.
Ron

``What you describe is very intriguing DX-wise. Let’s break it down:
Your log:
Date/time: Sept 1, 0640 UT
Frequency: 780 kHz
Station normally there: WBBM Chicago (dominant on 780 at night)
What you heard: Equal-strength QRM, repeating ~70-second loop of
Skyview Networks test tones (L/R channels, then both), plus a voice
message calling for “internet connection” and giving the Skyview ops
center phone number 877-503-8910.

Possibilities

WBBM technical issue / mixup
WBBM is a Skyview client (Skyview distributes CBS/Westwood One
content, and handles network ad insertion).
If their STL (studio-to-transmitter link) or satellite receiver
hiccupped, the Skyview receiver could have defaulted to its test loop,
thus being heard on air mixed with program.
The “call the operations center” message is meant for engineers when
the receiver is out of sync.

Another Skyview affiliate bleeding in
KSPI Stillwater, OK, is indeed on 780, but it’s a daytimer (500 W). It
should have been off the air at 0640 UT (01:40 CDT). If it wasn’t,
maybe it was running satellite network feed (via Skyview) unattended
overnight.
However, with equal strength to WBBM in Oklahoma, that would be
unusual—KSPI runs only 250 W at night if authorized (but FCC shows
daytimer).

Imposter / spur / crossfeed
Less likely, but another station in the region could have been airing
Skyview’s loop due to automation misconfiguration.

If it was truly “equal strength” with WBBM in Oklahoma, that points
toward a local/regional source, not just WBBM alone.

My take

Most likely it was WBBM itself briefly radiating the Skyview test loop
due to a network receiver failure. The fact you heard both WBBM and
the loop “equal strength” could have been their audio chain mixing the
live program with the backup/test channel.

KSPI or another Oklahoma station seems less likely at that hour,
unless it was mistakenly left on at night running satellite
automation.

📌 What you might do:

Check KSPI’s official FCC license (it’s indeed daytimer only). If they
were on at 01:40 CDT, that would be unauthorized nighttime operation.

If this repeats, it’s more probably WBBM itself having an
uplink/network receiver issue.`` (via Ron Howard)

This is more or less to be expected, except AI does not know that from
my previous experience, KSPI daytimer *can* be on overnight, and at
nearby groundwave range, will be steady and as strong as WBBM via
skywave. KSPI is 250 watts, not 500. It was not very brief, but maybe
5 minutes before I tuned away. No such problem 24 hours later (Glenn
Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 930, Sept 1 at 2156, 2218 UT chex, WKY OKC *STILL* in
dead air; also Sept 2 at 0625, and **STILL** at 1452, even tho the

WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Sept 1 at 2157, VOT not off the air, IS & IDs in
