** CUBA. 5025, May 20 at 0158, R. Rebelde is off; had been fairly
reliable lately but weaker. Something`s wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MOLDOVA. 13730.011+, May 19 at 1551, Russian S9+25/35 into UTwente;
5+1 timesignal to 1600, silence and off some seconds later. Another
test of Vesti FM from Grigoriopol` site in Russian-occupied Moldova,
a.k.a. Pridnestrovye/Transnistria. Also heard widely in N America, tnx
to Alexander Miatlikov, Ukraine tip: ``Another round of SW tests from Grigoriopol-Mayak tx site in
Moldova/Transnistria towards the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug in the Far
East. May 19 on 13730 kHz
10.00-11.00 UTC
15.00-16.00 UTC
19.00-20.00 UTC May 20 on 15175 kHz
11.00-12.00 UTC
16.00-17.00 UTC
20.00-21.00 UTC May 21 on 17505 kHz

15.00-16.00 UTC
19.00-20.00 UTC 300 kW, 16 degrees
https://t.me/s/powerfulradio/290 P.S. Last time, this source also claimed the power was 300 kW, while a
worker of that tx site wrote on radioscanner.ru/forum that it was 500
kW. Maybe it's 500 kW now too`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 13690, May 19 at 0618, RNZP only here, not also on
11725 as was the case last night at 0648. Sked calls for 13690 only
until 0758, then 11725 plus 9700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 99.7, May 19 at 2220 UT, ``99-7 The Wolf`` ID,
i.e. KWFF. This frequency was hijacked from Enid to Mustang, SW of
OKC, by previous owner, then KXLS calls applied to 95.7 Lahoma
instead. But we still have `The Wolf` on 106.3, which is KWOF Waukomis
= Enid market. Both country format. How original! WTFDA FMDB lists 117
Wolfs in USA, and one Canadian, 104.9 CFWF-FM Regina, predominantly
country but scattering of rockishes. I fail to appreciate how branding
radio stations The Wolf accomplish anything positive (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 102.7, May 19 at 1938 UT, KJYO is on the air unlike
yesterday, but seems a bit weaker than other OKCs (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 105.3, May 19 at 1940 UT into caradio, enough signal to
be sure it`s MONO, not $ tereo, on the ``Infinity Sports Network``, ads
including one for Juneteenth with a (405) area code, so it`s not KFBZ
In Kansas, but per WTFDA FM Database, KINB, Kingfisher OK, 0.93/0.93
kW, 254.0 m with CBS Sports Radio - different than Infinity? Was
rebranded on April 15, 2024 per Wikipedia. So add one more to the MONO
survey. I suppose this little station tries to reach part of the OKC
Metro. Site is halfway between Kingfisher and Piedmont, i.e. further
from Enid, and circular prime contour only reaches NW OKC, not quite
to Lake Hefner. I wonder why they could not go to higher power (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Tornado season means OKC TV stations blow away a lot of
network programming, for often continuous storm coverage. May 19 at
2233 UT, KFOR `4` RF 27 did join NBC Afternoonly News a bit late;
while KWTV `9`, RF 25 shunted CBS Afternoon News to its substation
KSBI `52` RF 23 Cable 16. KOCO ABC and KOKH Fox also have substations
but I`ve yet to find them shunting major network programming to any of
those. KFOR could also do that, to KAUT. Or extremely important
preëmpted shows can be played in the nightmiddle for recording, such
as Jeopardy on KFOR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, 17715, 15520, 15390, Mon May 19 at 2200, token
English from SNR nominal direct on all four in order of decreasing
strength, and precious little else from Europe on these bands. Preview
topix: Olive Oil Council meeting in Madrid; Eurovision Song Contest
won by Austria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 9875.005+, Sunday May 18 at 2046, VOT English
backwards into UTwente, S9+15, tuned just in time for end of `The
Pulse of Turkish Foreign Policy` and start of `The Letterbox Show` -
as I have just finished delayed viewing of the #1 TV show, CBS Sunday
Morning via website minus commercials, which totals 62.5 minutes. As
usual I can only guess at some of the names, while others are repeat
attenders. 1) Michael Kovsky? NY, has 11780 Brasil QRM to 11785. 2)
Anatoly Klepov, Moskva wants May QSL: he reports every month. 3)
Christian Henke?, Germany, visited TRNC and has tried to QSL R.
Bayrak, but mail does not go thru; can VOT forward? 4) Mario Peña,
Zaragoza, Spain, has monitored Turkish and French, when is Spanish? 5)
Jayanta Chakroborty, India, 03 UT broadcast missing but heard next
day, better on 7275 aimed at NAm than 6165 toward ME. 6) Orlando?,
Taranto, Italy. 7) John Miller, Ochlocknee? Georgia, reports
``11875``. 8) Hideki? Miyaki? Japan, heard Chinese at 1100 on 17620,
et al. tentatively VOT. 2105 wrapup; says 5/19 is Atatürk Day, 2106
plays children`s choir with patriotic song. 2109 outro theme. Don`t need to hear 2200 on 11785.006, but confirmed on at 2229 check,
S9+45 into UTwente, when I hear that Georgia town better (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, May 19 at 2158, VOT not off the air but JBA direct
equal to noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2295 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 18 at 2155 the 2130 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.002+, S9+10 into
UTwente. Also confirmed Sunday May 18 at 2330 on WRMI-11, 9455, S9+20/35 into S
Texas SDR, VG for us, NW across the continent. Skedgrid finally shows
this correctly on System D, not 7570 or 7780. Also confirmed UT Monday May 19 at 0030 on WRMI-13, 7780, S9+10/30
into S Texas SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday May 19 from 0305 on Area 51 webcast only as
previous program ran over; while WBCQ 5130 cut off at 0302*. Also confirmed Monday May 19 at 1953 the 1930 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.001, S9+10/15 and on 3975.002+, S8/S9, both into UTwente. Next: 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW;

PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, May 20 at 0158 & 0228 chex, this WTWW is on again and
so is the other transmitter 5920. Still no sign of 9475, the daytime
counterpart of 5085 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, May 19 at 0539, this WRMI-11 is off again, so last
night`s expansion was anomalous. It`s also off at 0052 May 20 during
its nominal 00-04 schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17525, haven`t run across WMLK here for weeks in random
afternoon bandscans; is totally unused? HFCC A25 registered 1730-2230
daily except Sabbathdays. Mostly heard mornings on 15150, some
evenings on 9275. Last logged March 6-7-8 by myself and others when at
first it was putting out 8X kHz spurs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1650, 1640, 1620 kHz, May 19 at 0600 UT, stupid sportstalk
as I tune downward, slight delay from 1650 to 1640 and a bit longer
delay on 1620, as network feeds are seldom synchronized from one
affiliate to another, i.e.: FSR on 1650 KCNZ Cedar Falls IA, to 1640
KZLS Hennessey/Enid OK, to 1620 KOZN Bellevue NE (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. ``Hi Glenn, It took a while, but I believe I can rule
out your 1549.82 carrier as being XEREL Morelia. I've attached an AVI
file that is from my recording of 11 May 2025 near local sunrise, when
the path between my home and Morelia was still in darkness. You can
hear the Mexican anthem weakly in the recording and notice that no
signal peaks are in the 1549.8-1549.9 range. I did not hear an ID, but
XEREL is the only known Mexican on 1550 in the UTC-6 time zone. It is possible that another Mexican has recently become active on
1550, perhaps XECCAW in Jalisco, and that is the station playing the
anthem. In that case, though, XEREL is putting in virtually no signal
for me at 88 miles/142 km away. They have never been strong here
despite being on a wide-open frequency, and my suspicion since you
queried me about their signal is that the only way they will get to
Oklahoma is with a plane ticket. 73, Mike Jeziorski, Qro.`` Tnx, Mike. Well, I would settle for Perú instead, hi (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6938.0, May 19 at 0556, JBA carrier again, cf
yesterday`s report: ``NORTH AMERICA. 6938 AM, May 18 at 0208 and still
0232, open carrier vs HSNL; at least I can`t make out any mod if it be
a pirate? Nothing now reported in HFU, tho lots of older logs, unIDs,
USB or AM`` To which Walt Salmaniw, BC replied: ``Glenn, I often hear this OC in
Masset, but always assumed it was somehow connected to my Bodnar
mini-GPS that does put out some spurs. I've never seen any modulation
associated with it. 73, Walt``
Well, I don`t have a Bodnar mini-GPS, whatever that be, so really
think 6938 be external to both of us. Should appear on various remotes
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0246 UT May 20
