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 ..

** CUBA. 11760, Sept 1 at 2213, RHC with undermodulated music and
squeal, S9+30, but no signals on 13780 or 15230. Somethings always

WOR)

** 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

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715, S9+20/30 direct and VP 15390, music from REE, 2200
accurate timesignal and RNE program in Spanish, domestic relay?
instead of English, which supposedly resumes on Wednesdays only at
2200-2300, first at 1004, when presumably not on SW (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Sept 1 at 2157, VOT not off the air, IS & IDs in
English, S9+10/20 direct, mostly readable vs noise level; 2201 already

equal strength 70-second loop, Skyview Networks, test tones left and
right channels and then both. Calls for internet connexion, so not via

WOR)
