** CHINA [and non]. CNR1 jammer survey, July 27 at 1352-1400: again
none found in the WOOB areas of 13, 12, 11, 10 or even 9 MHz; but
there is a poor inband signal on 9680 until 1400* timesignal and off.
Is it propagation, or has there been a cutback? N Korea is still
propagating poor-fairly on 11735, 11710, self-jamming on 9435, and S
Korea on this week`s jumparound 9095.

11440, an hour later at 1454 at least is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 11880, July 27 at 1455, S9+30 of open carrier, so CRI
Plus English relay via CUBA at 1500 seems promising tho did not get
around to evaluating. There had been reports of this missing, not only
from the canceled 14-15 hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11634-11635, July 27 at 0133, extremely distorted spurblob at
S5-S7 but loud, and tone also audible in FM mode; with similar sound
on source 11670 RHC transmitter, and more at 35-36 kHz intervals:
11706, 11742, 11776 vs Brasil 11780.

It so happens that `En Contacto` starts at 0135 UT Monday, Arnie with
variety of topix, including ``QSL en el aire`` to someone in Arequipa,
Perú for a report of --- 11670! NOTHING said about the spurs it
outputs! Arnie says this transmitter and antenna put out 4 megawatts
of ERP. Then another report from Brasil of someone hearing English on
15140 at 1900 --- and again no mention of the constantly defective
modulation there! And if a QSL on the Air is provided, does that mean
you don`t get a hard- or e-copy?? Axually listening on clear 11760;
also on 11800 which is suptorted; wiggle that patchcord! Somethings`
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 5150-USB, July 27 at 0127, JBA music vs HSNL. Per
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,69905.0.html
it`s Radio 48. This area just above Area 51 has become active for
pirates I need to check more often (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Despite heavy storms in western Kansas heading this way,
some ND beacons are audible vs the noise:

388-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0533 UT, OB --- pretty sure of this ID but no
matches in either list nor on adjacent frequencies; closest would be
OK, 388 in Okmulgee OK, 25 watts.

395-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0542 UT, ULS, 25 watts in Ulysses KS where the
storms are.

417-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0543 UT, IY, 25 watts in Charles CItY, Iowa; I
was tuned to 415-USB.

420-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0546 UT, PK, 25 watts at Olathe - Herbb KS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2044 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday July 27 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG at Austin TX KiwiSDR, close to
its aim, and at 0053 check also VG here, S9+20/30.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, VP S5-S7 here.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, VG at UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 from 0302 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5130, good
at Rochester SDR; here, S9/+10 including high storm noise level from
Kansas.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, JBA here;
inaudible on TWR SDRs Bonaire, DR, Boa Vista, but fair at Brasília,
good at Maine SDR! Next:

1800vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW

** U S A. 9955, July 27 at 1402, WRMI is still on with anti-ChiCom
comments from Freedom Synergy Radio, but gone at 1419 recheck. So it
seems running past 1400 weekdays is irregular, unintentional (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5050, July 27 at 0128, S9+30/40 of dead air and then
annoying fast busy signal for at least a minute before I get out of
there. Someone`s program feed by phone has failed to WWRB; at least
confirmed still on air UT Mondays and presumably also Sundays (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540-, July 27 at 0147 UT, big low het to 1540.0 stations,
doubtless KGBC Galveston TX doing it again sporadically.

1560, July 27 at 0147 UT, Vietnamese in the mix but not dominant,
doubtless KGOW Bellaire TX; both Houston market; vs a Fox Sports Radio
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, July 27 at 0155:
nothing lower but a JJBBA het from 891 upon WLS, doubtless the
Algerian which makes it if any (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6970, July 27 at 0125, JBA AM carrier, maybe a pirate or
mixing product. Nothing recent on HFUnderground. With bonker QRM from
about 6973 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Correxion: of course, I meant to write ``weekly RHC Esperanto``,
not Spanish; fixed:

** CUBA. 11760 >> // 15140, Sunday July 26 at 1501, weekly RHC
Esperanto opening; YL mispronounces Ameriko as Amériko; despite
seeming fluency cannot escape her native Spanish accentuation for
Espo`s invariable penultimate accent, so I don`t even stay tuned to
hear her give the wrong schedule. Something`s always wrong at RHC

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, July 26 at 1545, LRA36 has supposedly
stayed on all night until 1500 but it`s still on, as activity
publicity never seems accurately fulfilled; sufficient via Brasil SDR,
almost nothing but music; `Ave Maria` nice harmony hymn playing at
tune-in, then lots more secular? songs. 1606 mentions Santiago del
Estero; 1633 song about Provincia de Santa Fe; 1802 brief talk about
the music; 1816 at last canned LRA36 ID and plug `Corazón Antártico`
program. Finally cut off about 1833*. I had been listening with half
an ear all this time, mainly to WYSU`s pipe organ music. Let`s face
it, hardly any of the program content on LRA36 is about *ANTARCTICA*,
rather Argentina and lots of music which is hardly Antarctican either

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, July 26 at 1355-1400: NONE found WOOB in
the 13s, 12s, 11s, or 10s, but in the 9s: 9215, 9230 VP in Chinese; I
suppose due to depressed propagation rather than operation (Glenn

S9 not distorted but undermodulated. 5040 off already. Something`s

Occasionally one gets very lucky and is in the right place at the right
time for a new log just 300 miles away from a 50,000 watt flamethrower.....
this is from April 2020 here in Laramie, WY.

Fast forward to 55 seconds and listen for a few seconds:
