** 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 JBA 9874.919+ which would be Korea North. Something`s always erroneous 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 measured with music, S9+45/50; 2253 s/off as if 17620 at 1200, awry at Ankara, and IS to 2254.6* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2310 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday September 2 at 2000 in IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.994 kHz, S9+10/15 but noisy into nearby Noale SDR; after IRRS outdated canned ID claiming 7125 and 9510 kHz.

** U S A. 17790, Sept 2 at 2212, no signal from this WRMI with CRR; unclear whether off or due to degraded propagation; 15770 still audible with Taiwan relay. Same situation Sept 3 at 2210 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 570, Sept 3 at 0630 UT, several WNAX IDs in passing as promoting a ``Hawaiian Beach Getaway`` next Feb. Yankton SD, and no sign of KLIF, KWML or anything else, strange. Is U2 5/5 kW. Night pattern has a notch southward thisaway so maybe ND day pattern. In good old lower-noise days, I could hear it on daytime groundwave under DFW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Sept 1 at 2213, RHC with undermodulated music and squeal, S9+30, but no signals on 13780 or 15230. Somethings always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Sept 2 at 1454, RHC Spanish S5/S6, undermodulated and not too distorted; nothing on 13780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

DXheat/cluster fills in the missing letter: CE4JZO with WA4AV at 2205 on this very frequency. QRZ.com: ``CE4JZO Chile flag Chile, Federico Edo. "Kiko" Concha Traverso-, Avda. La Estancia N° 413, Comuna Machali, Sexta Región, Rancagua- 2910000, Chile``. Only one other phone signal on 10m, 28435 USB unID, and no beacons, but got a Guat on 12, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GUATEMALA. 24985 USB, Sept 1 at 2207, TG9AHM calling CQ in English, OSOB. QRZ.com: ``TG9AHM Guatemala flag Guatemala, EMMANUEL H. MIERES G. (Manny), 19 CALLE 10-38 ZONA 11 COL. MARISCAL, BOSQUES DE MARISCAL, CIUDAD DE GUATEMALA 01011, Guatemala`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MALI. 11975, Sept 1 at 2215, French with flutter and rumble, S9+10/20. It`s CRI relay at 2130-2230 for N Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, 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 holiday is over. First noticed Aug 30 at 2340, 63+ hours ago.

** 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 in olds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

9750.018+, Sun Aug 31 at 1846, S9+40/55 into UTwente, after `The Pulse of Turkish Foreign Policy`. 1) Gabriel Gómez, Montevideo, Uruguay, CX001, SWL since 1984 and ham CX7BI. 2) Mr Francis Moller?, Dublin, Ireland. 3) -- Ide, Tokyo, Japan, listened to Chinese broadcast for Turkish music. 4) Iran. 5) Siddartha, India, as weekly with questions: Is World Lion Day 20/8 celebrated in Turkey? World ELephant Day on 12/8? These are rather new; Turkey has more wild goats than elephants... (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 28450 USB, Aug 30 at 2320, few signals on 10m but hello`s, 1,2,3,4,5 tests in English then repeated ID fonetikaly as AB6VR, with accent, but not DX, rather in ARRL/FCC lookup: ``GONZALES, ROMEO F, AB6VR, 494 BLAKELEY DR, LEMOORE, CA 93245`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2310 monitoring: confirmed Saturday August 30 after 0930 on WRMI 7570: first time I`ve happened to awaken during this; despite still shown on skedgrid for blue System D as 9455, which had something else, CRR. All other programming for that hour must also be shown on wrong frequency.
Also confirmed Saturday August 30 at 1435 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.002-, S9 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday August 30 at 1600 on WRN North America and Europe streams.
Also confirmed Saturday August 30 at 1730 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001+ S8/9+5 and 3975.001+ S8/S9 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday August 30 at 1930 on WRN North America stream; and still not really on WRMI stream. And remotes could not get enough signal from WA0RCR 1860 at 1930 or later.
Confirmed Saturday August 30 at 2100 on WRMI 9395, S7/S9 into Knoxville SDR.
Also confirmed Saturday August 30 at 2230 on WRMI 15770, S9+5/15 into UTwente where it`s aimed.
Also confirmed UT Sunday August 31 from 0316 until 0345 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S7/8.5 into IL N9AZZ remote - almost right on time. Also well audible into Knoxville SDR, S8/S9 at 0325.
Also confirmed Sunday August 31 at 1900 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 -6 Hz = 1322.994, S9+14 into nearby Noale SDR, while JBA into UTwente across Europe. And still not on 918 kHz. Next:
2100 UT Sunday WRMI 15770 to NE; 2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2300 UT Sunday WRMI 9395 to NNW [new]; 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 9455 to NW; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 0830 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 6160 [suspended]; 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 1400 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast]; 2000 UT Tuesday IRRS SW via AM Italia 1323 and/or 918; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 2330 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.
No new financial support this week, not necessarily in US funds via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com
One may also contribute via money order or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1110 kHz, Aug 30 at 0624 UT, KFAB modulating unlike protracted dead air last night. BTW, during `C2CAM`, KFAB is normally a second or two ahead of neighbor 1100 WTAM Cleveland (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1180, Aug 30 at 0625 UT, sports talk, LSB needed to escape KOTV IBOC noise peaking 1183. No doubt still KZOT Bellevue NE from IOWA, *still* cheating with 25 kW daypower, as first noted Aug 18 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1360.025 approx., Aug 30 at 0627 UT, LAH = low audible heterodyne from offset carrier. I fear previous logs as 1360.28 or 1360.29, may have been mistaken without the 0. In this case there is now a very recent entry in mwoffsets for 1360.033 from WWOW Conneaut OH as of 2025-08-13. I also suspected WWOW in an August 9 log, q.v. Aug 30 at 1540 UT I check the KiwiSDR at Southington OH, and bingo, it has a nostalgia station +33 Hz from 1360; calibration not checked precisely, but neighboring frequencies are closer to .00 either side of channel. NRC AM Log shows OLD format rather than NOS, but ``I love you because you`re you`` and ``You are the sunshine of my heart`` are more like NOS than OLD which applies to early rock (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1570, Aug 31 at 0650 UT, ``WLRS`` mentioned immediately as I pause on this frequency. This is it: New Albany IN, U1 1500/233 watts, ``Kentuckiana`s True Oldies``, address in Clarksville, per NRC AM Log. There are many, many UStations at night on 1570 under 500 watts, or under 100 watts, even two in TX at 6 and 11 watts: tough luck, XERF! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 29 at 2159, RNB/RNA not off the air but JBA direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 30 at 0149, token English from RNB/RNA, yet again repeating snippets about the anniversary of the Parque Rodeador hi-power SWBC site. S9+10/25 into Bonaire SDR, much better than into Brasila. 0153 outro that there was an AI voice - so that`s why he was speaking perfect Amerenglish. Portuguese break then into same in Spanish, must be another AI, but with a Castilian accent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 28405+USB, Aug 29 at 2220, PY2FZ, with quick contacts, spells BAURU, CCI from an LU calling CQDX in English: they probably can`t hear each other, too close. QRZ.com: ``PY2FZ Brazil flag Brazil, Helio "Bono" Bono, Avenida Antenor de Almeida, 3-199, Condominio Chacara Odete, Bauru, SP 17047590, Brazil`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Aug 29 at 2204, RHC Spanish, S9+10 and suptorted but readable, yay! // 13780 also S9+10 with goodmod, but 2215 recheck, 13780 deadair while 15230 continues. Somethings always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715, Fri Aug 29 at 2200, REE S9+10/20 still in Spanish, no English, and also only on very weak 15390 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004, Aug 29 at 2159, VOT IS & ID in English, not off the air, S9+10/20 direct but JBM to undermodulated. At 2244 into UTwente when measured, S9+25/45, somewhat undermodulated, starting `Did You Know That`, something about fish migration but I shall not strain to understand more than 20% of the words emanating from the larynx of Efsun. 2249 music. 2254 s/off as if 1230 on 17620: something`s always awry at Ankara. 2254.6 IS. 2256 pause and restart IS with German IDs: something`s always erroneous at Emirler, until 2258* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2310 monitoring: confirmed Friday August 29 at 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.994, S9+5 into UTwente - and still no signals on 918 or 207 kHz.
Also confirmed Friday August 29 after 2200 on WRMI 9955. At first direct it doesn`t sound like me, S9/+10 but very undermodulated. By 2206 seems me; by 2215 am pretty sure.
Also confirmed Friday August 29 at 2243 the 2230 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.002-, S7/S9 into UTwente with storm crashes.
Also confirmed UT Saturday August 30 at 0300-0329 on WTWW 5085, now back in service, still intro as ``The ministry of`` ---, complete plus music until 0331*. Next:

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Aug 29 at 2352, into NH SDR, which is 50 Hz off compared to WWV 10000, so exact readings have been corrected: 7490 -55 Hz = 7489.945, S9+20 with FKB. 9330.005, S9+30 WLCR Brazuguese but off for rotation at 2357. 6160 +20 Hz = 6160.020, S5/S7 with CRI, but BCQ on by 2356 with IS & ID loop, S9+15/20 and 0000 into something else. 5130 by 2357 somebuzz not BCQ still past 0000. 3265 totally off.
UT Sat Aug 30 at 0000 announces that following AAAWWW was originally broadcast March 28, 2025 - never mind, see my log on that date. Now joined by 9330 only. On Thu Aug 28, Allan said ``listen tonight`` for more about the ``Laser Broadcast System`` he had been publicizing, but I assumed he really meant Friday night - not. Did anyone hear him with any new/live info about that? Anything on his X? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 252 kHz, my JBA carrier where no beacons are likely, could well be the 750 kW broadcaster in ALGERIA, I have just realized. I have so little luck with any LWBC DX that I didn`t even consider that: ``252 kHz, Aug 27 at 0357 UT, LW beaconscan hits only one unusual, 252 kHz; trouble is, dxinfocentre.com shows only two possibilities, in SC and NS; and RNA list shows none anywhere. Now wondering if I were really tuned to 251 AM but I think not``. The remaining active EurAfrican LWs are on: 153, 162, 171, 198, 225, 252. Gedas in Indiana has been getting 198 and 225. And E Asia = all Mongolia: 164, 209, 227, per WRTH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 17435-17470, Aug 29 at 2213, S9 multi-carrier, multi-tones beating against each other over this approx. range. Often heard for long time but have not relogged it for quite a while. What is this? Similar things elsewhere such as circa 9.2 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
