Cuba On AM Log From August 9th In Laramie, WY |
|
Monday, August 10 2020
 Here's a clip of Rebelde on 1180 from Saturday night August 8th. 1180 here is somewhat rare and if I hear it, I usually only here one transmitter.. but listen to the guys speech in the very beginning of the recording, I hear what sounds like a tiny tiny bit of a stutter caused by Echo of multiple transmitters:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CZn6eDhkNW6gTDhldk5q7mpGmlI_S2gm/view?usp=sharing listen to this clip, fast forward to 2 minutes 30 seconds and hear how GOOD Rebelde can sound here on 710khz:

 ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, Aug 8 around 2300 check, no sign of LRA36 via several SDRs in Paraguay, Uruguay and Brasil; supposed to be running all-night in a 24-hour test as heard before 1800, but not surprisingly not propagating after dark on so high a frequency at winter-max, nor would it likely at summer-max either during solar-min.
Not checked again until 1454 August 9, and there it is into a Brasil SDR, usual stuff of songs and canned IDs at 1454, 1502. Bruce Churchill advocates an Iceland SDR for LRA36, despite the distance an all-agua Atlantic path, but neither of them is getting it at 1516. Of course, no sign of it direct to here either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey Aug 9 at 1350: JBA carriers, u.o.s.: 13530; 13160 S5-S7, 13130, 13070 S7-S9, 13020, 12870 S3-S6, 12820. No there WOOBs checked before 1400. At 1432: 12190, 11100, 11070, 10870 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE. 9420, August 9 at 0536, VOG is S9-S7 with Greek Orthodox chanting, harmonies on a Sunday morning, violating Separation of Church and State, unless WRTH dubbing it ``public`` instead of ``gov`` make a difference; anyhow, always enjoyable music to the secularist. Apparently came on late this Sunday date as Eric Fetters-Walp, near Seattle was not hearing it by 0245. Note that it is always OFF early UT Mondays, our Sunday evenings until I don`t know when (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6933-USB, Aug 8 at 2334, VP talk sounds like a pirate, after some music which seemed to be on 6935. Without a carrier and unfamiliar music, can`t always pinpoint right away. These say it`s Zeke`s (or Zekey`s) Attic: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,70283.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 341-MCW kHz, Aug 9 at 0604 UT, Enid NDB EI is JBA amid storm noise: had to listen for a couple minutes to detect it between crashes; this local one is always much weaker than the further Okies on 255, 350 and 515 kHz. Less QRN at definite recheck 1349 UT. So remains on air for a second day after revival, and you may assume continuing until I note another absence. 350-MCW kHz, RG at Will RoGers World Airport, OKC, BTW is not to be confused with another RG nearby on 352 kHz, RarotonGa, Cook Islands, as the west coast DXers have to be careful (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 7340, Sunday August 9 at 0544, again no signal from the hypothetical COVID-19 extension of Eye Radio via Madagascar (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2046 monitoring: confirmed Saturday August 8 at 1948 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, close to the end at 1951.7 UT which means it started at 1922.7; incredibly good S6-S8 signal via KiwiSDR in Warrenton MO --- that`s because the two towns are only a few km apart; after getting no signal via the SDR I mostly used before in much further Edinburgh IN. Next item a speech by a ham who is also a medical doctor about ham radio and COVID-19; I think the call was K0MD, but at qrz.com that one appears to be a full-time ham. Also confirmed NEW time, Saturday August 8 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, VG to UTwente; immediately preceded by R. Tirana theme, not the IS and no ID break. Also confirmed UT Sunday August 9 at 0300 on WRMI 5800, good direct, after R. Tirana theme but with an ID break. Also confirmed UT Sunday August 9 at 0421 mid-break on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, again via the Warrenton MO SDR of KB0FX, but buried in heavy storm noise, much worse reception than in the daytime; so started late circa 0406. I had been checking since 0315. Blitzortung shows a small but strong storm right over the St Louis area. After 0421 axually better reception faraway here but still noisy. Next: 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0130 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to NE 0230 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to NE 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 5130v Area 51 or 6160v to WSW 0330 UT Monday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE 0900 UT Monday Unique Radio NSW 3210-USB 1800vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy 0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Thanks for financial support from Doug Brown, London, Ont., for a check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA One may also contribute via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com -- not necessarily in US funds as they will convert (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Aug 9 at 0015, WTWW-2 webcast with `Theatre Organ [NOT] in the Ozarx` already underway, ending at 0037 so must have started circa 0007 this week (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17815, Sunday Aug 9 at 1439, S7-S9 but noisy gospel huxter the OSOB, i.e. WHRI on limited schedule. Its own website not to be believed, as Angel 1 on 21610 at this time: ``New Beginnings Church & World Outreach Pastor Ronnie L. Patrick`` and 17815 not starting until 1900, as noted yesterday with dead air in the morning; and no 17815 on Angels 2 or 6. There are NO program listings for Angels 3, 4 or 5; and 6 is shown 24 hours on 7385 except for brief bits on 5920. Don`t you believe that either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1928 UT August 9 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

Sent: Thursday, August 06, 2020 Subject: [WOR] Glenn Hauser log roundup July 30-August 5, 2020CUBA. 11627 & 11713, July 30 at 0034, major spurblobs at S9 out of RHC 11670, plus & minus about 43 kHz; better readable in AM than FM mode; also another +43 around 11756, and JBA minus 43 around 11584 JBA. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 15230, July 30 at 0040, RHC still on here at S9 but Just Barely Modulated. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 11742-11777, July 30 at 1420, splatter range out of RHC 11760. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 5025, July 31 at 0558, R. Rebelde at S9+10/20 but suptorted; wiggle that patchcord. Something's always wrong at RadioCuba. 5040 RHC English is already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 15230, July 31 at 1337, RHC is S4-S6 of undermodulation, suptortion; 15140 by comparison is much better. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 15410 approx., August 1 at 2151, distorted spurblob with music and telltale F# tone, so I know immediately it has to be coming from the nearest RHC, i.e. 15370: Yes, undermodulated there at S7, soon with poetry or lyrix recitation; where else at ~40-kHz intervals? S5 15333 approx. at minus 37, while they are really diffuse, now 15407-15411 audible; JBA around 15447 but not around 15289. Event from an echoey hall, mentions Moncada, perpetual revolutionary obsession, living in the past. Surely same spurry transmitter recently on 11670 later, and less recently on 13700 earlier. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 11800, Aug 1 at 2206, RHC is S7-S8 and suptorted while its parasitic spurs on 11790 & 11810 are mere JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 11760, Sunday August 2 at 1501, via Alexandria SDR, weekly RHC Esperanto opening still alleges wrong info for this very broadcast: Sunday 1600 on 11760 (only, ignoring 15140); after Sunday 0800 instead of 0700, on 6100, which may or may not be the frequency extended after English; and 2230 on 15730 which at least is correct. Another mispronounced word is politiko, as if it were Spanish, "político". Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 15370, August 2 at 1933, RHC is S9+10 but dead air except for some F# tone but no spurs around 40 kHz intervals away; 1938 recheck, now JBM in unknown language and spurblobs detected circa 15412, 15329 and at least the F# audible circa 15290 but not 15450. Somethings' always wrong at RHC. 15140, meanwhile,Aug 2 at 1935 is S9 but extremely suptorted, JBM, so bad I can't be sure it's really in English as scheduled or something else. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 13740, Aug 3 at 2043, S9+10 of dead air from RHC; warmup? well before scheduled *2100; no spurs. 15370, Aug 3 at 2046, S9 of suptorted Arabic, which even when well-modulated sounds like choking. No spurblobs noted now. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 13650, Aug 5 at 2305 JBM music at S9-S5, the CRI "Portuguese" relay filled by music-only; much weaker than RHC itself on 13740. Something's always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 7380, Aug 5 at 2306, no signal from RHC English to Africa, but 5040 English to Carib is audible VP in noise. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) CUBA. 11670, Aug 5 at 2308, RHC Spanish with very distorted music at S9+20; at least no spurs this time. Something's always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

 ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, Sat Aug 8 at *1629, LRA36 comes on with fast CW message I am not prepared to copy or record, 1630 into song, 1633 ID for `Corazón Antártico` Wed 11-13 LT show. This is the well-publicized Saturday special supposedly starting at 1700 and staying on for 24 hours. From previous experience we know to tune in at least half an hour early for the runup, so I`ve been listening since 1617 via Brazil remote which gets it at S2-S3. The best one, Pardinho is not available, and Dan Robinson says it`s now by password only. Usual fill of mostly songs, 1645 another canned ID; 1656 plays the Morse code again and this time believe I can copy ``LRA36`` toward the end of it. Then voice IDs in Spanish, German, English and Russian; ``Nacional presenta: Corazón Antártico``, starting a few minutes early, into ``live`` mostly YLs, with G.C. of Esperanza Base, staff credits, and more chatter. I have to switch to a different Brazilian KiwiSDR at 1717, S1-S2 or S3 but more local noise. 1737 break for a song and then more talk. Altho publicized as an SSB test as if that were something new, it still has a residual reduced carrier, obvious when downtuned to 15475-USB.
However, since 1700 I`ve been preferably listening to the LA Opera via KUCO-FM webcast, this week the underperformed ``La Clemenza di Tito`` by Mozart, with a much better $ tereo signal. I would need much better reception from LRA36 to try to understand and get anything out of what they are saying, so enough by 1751 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA [and non]. CNR1 jammer survey, August 8 from 1343, early enough start to be thoro in the WOOB ranges before 1400*. Generally JBA or JBA carriers except as noted: 16600 and stronger 16300 with flutter; 15165 Chinese and fast SAH from VOA Thailand victim; 15130 vs VOA Philippines; 14980, 14920, 14870, 13920 S9/+10, 13835; none just above or below 13 MHz, unusual. The CW South Koreans inhabit. At 1351: 12550 S8-S9, 12230 S6-S9, 12190 vs CODAR; 25m inband not checked; 11460 & 11440 both S7-S9; 11150 & 11100 JBA carriers; 10820 S2-S3; none in the lower nines by 1357 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 341-MCW, Aug 8 at 0614 UT, Enid`s only ND beacon, EI at Woodring Airport, is back! I check for it every night, and only heard occasionally OIN from Oberlin KS on 341. EI was first missing on July 23 so was off for a semimonth, 16 days (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2046 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday August 8 at 0130 on WRMI-1 7780, which has been restored to air after power surge damage, but NOT on 9955 which is now shown on the sked grid, rather a preacher, previous occupant of this time? so maybe WOR from next week? As also shown on sked, WOR no longer on 5850 & 5010, which had been a prime early airing and the only one across mid-America 315 degree azimuth, on 5850. As usual 7780 is poor here but good to the NE remotes. Skedgrid shows blank spaces for System F 5850 & 5010 at 0130-0200 on UT Wed, Thu and Fri. The latter would be a good replacement for WOR as soon as it`s finished. The bumper off our former spot is for only 15 minutes, so after 0145 there is World Music fill, such as the polka? at 0150. WOR 2046 also confirmed Saturday August 8 at 1310 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, JBA; 1320 slightly better, sounds like me.
