CUBA 13699.812, Jan 16 at 1541, RHC off-frequency again, S8-S9; as
heard yesterday but not in time to measure. As in previous report, was
also askew on 9699.879 at 0227. Both also weaker than normal, and
lacking spurblobs on 13 MHz, suspect a totally different transmitter
has been substituted. Meanwhile, Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria found another
such: 6099.86 at 12-14. He thinx the same Bauta transmitter would be
on 15140v from 19 in Arabic, 20 in English; but at 1739 and 1940, it's
within a fraxion of 1 Hz from 15140.00 per Bonaire SDR.

``The Codebreaker --- Wife. Mother. Secret American Hero.

Based on the book The Woman Who Smashed Codes: A True Story of Love,
Spies, and the Unlikely Heroine Who Outwitted America's Enemies, The
Codebreaker reveals the fascinating story of Elizebeth Smith Friedman,
the groundbreaking cryptanalyst whose painstaking work to decode
thousands of messages for the U.S. government would send infamous
gangsters to prison in the 1930s and bring down a massive,
near-invisible Nazi spy ring in WWII. Her remarkable contributions
would come to light decades after her death, when secret government
files were unsealed. But together with her husband, the legendary
cryptologist William Friedman, Elizebeth helped develop the methods
that led to the creation of the powerful new science of cryptology and
laid the foundation for modern codebreaking today.

Aired January 11, 2021 --- Watch Film:

or repeats may still be running this week on your PBS station

** VENEZUELA. 6200+, Jan 16 at 1742, into TWR Bonaire Kiwi SDR, steady
S5 noisy RC/USB signal with peppy Spanish songs and brief
announcements; 1759, ``es la una``, ID as ``ROCV en 6,200 kHz``. SAM
mode shows slight fluxuation up to 12 Hz plus; sometimes jumping to
400-500 Hz range, perhaps confused by unheard QRM. Still the same at
1940 recheck.

Totally daytime; employing distancefromto.net for distance El Tigre to
Kralendijk, first try with those names and countries is totally wrong,
393 km, map pointing to a spot just east of Lake Maracaibo, while El
Tigre is really SE of Caracas, S of Cumaná, Barcelona and Puerto la
Cruz, midway to Ciudad Bolívar. Then I insert the state, Anzoátegui to
get it right: 569 km = 354 statute miles. Always inspect the map to be
sure it`s not a spurious result. Have seen no reports yet of hearing
its alternate frequency 7375 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

In the face of a reckoning, white supremacists, enablers cry 'Unity,
unity!' --- James Neal | Enid News & Eagle Jan 15, 2021

... if you want to understand why this evil persists in a nation
populated by people — of all colors — who are mostly not white
supremacists, consider the words of that master-insurgent, Mao Zedong:
“The guerrilla must move amongst the people as a fish swims in the
sea.”

** CUBA. 9699.879, Jan 16 at 0227, RHC English way off-frequency and
relatively weak S5-S7; same as happened this morning to 13700-minus
before I could measure it, surely same transmitter. This kind of
anomaly rarely happens, but has before to make things more
interesting. All other RHC frequencies checked are within a few Hz of
nominal. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 5870-5875-5880, Jan 15 at *2330-2400*, RFI DRM cuts on and
off at these precise minutes, not *2300. I set up Bonaire SDR early,
tuned for DRM and heard silence until 2330. Then there was music, and
after 2333 mostly H&F discussion in French, only S7-S8 but enough, few
if any dropouts, labeled: S/N 14.7 dB; mode B; Chan 10 kHz; 16 QAM;
8.08 kbps; TDF. Did not check Jan 14; see detailed discussion in
previous report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Jan 15 at 2301, still no signal from REE`s North
American beam when English should be airing on Friday. Several others
have noticed it missing for a few days, maybe because of massive
snowstorm? I`m checking via Bonaire SDR. But there is a VP S4-S6
signal on 11940, the South American beam which should be much better
there; recognizing the casual voice of Justin Coe but not whatever he
be saying (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 6200-RCUSB, Jan 16 at 0001, frenetic music with
voiceovers, VP S4 to Bonaire SDR nearby where ROCV should be better.
No one else has mentioned that this is on USB only, no LSB, but with
reduced carrier detectable by off-minus tuning, just like 6906v was,
same transmitter presumably. When tuned in Synch AM mode, carrier
offset is shown varying up to 8 Hz mostly on the plus side. By 0007
has improved to S5-S6; by 0205, JBA S3 music in USB, so not yet
Tibet.

Oh2, at 0217 Jan 16, I am checking 6200 direct but mainly hearing
two-way in Spanish on USB above the JBA carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Jan 16 at
0241-0244: this time I am tuning the MW band in AM mode, 10 kHz steps,
merely noting where I can detect a 1 kHz het, and not bothering to
ascertain whether it`s above or below the domestic frequencies, but
well-assuming these: 711, 819, 891, 909, 981, 1089, 1179. I would also
have expected at least 531 and 621, but bottom of band suffers high
line noise level peak (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
