** CANADA. 328 MCW kHz, Dec 6 at 0740 UT, dash and YTL: 1000-watt ND
beacon at Big Trout Lake, Ontario. RNA list shows it first reported in
1989y, and never by anyone in OK. (I consult but do not post to RNA
and apparently they do not seek out reports elsewhere.) So another one
not yet decommissioned (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, Dec 6 at 0730, VVV DE HK3QQ BOGOTA COLOMBIA and
signature letters in defective keyboard order: QWETYUIOX... etc.
Something else not copied in the msg before ends with 73. AFAIK, I am
the only DX monitor ever to log and report this (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11930, Dec 6 at 0724, weak pulse jamming against nothing,
from the incompetent and wasteful DentroCuban Jamming Command; R.
Martí never on here in the night, and this`ll keep `em away!! But
11860 unscathed for a non-Martí signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Dec 6 at 2257, REE N American frequency still
missing: something`s not nominal at Noblejas; fairly audible on 12030
for ME, and carriers detectable on 17715, 17755 direct. Token English
at 2301 skips any news, right into interview with a Dr Durán? about
how illness is portrayed in literature (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TAIWAN [and non]. 9900, Dec 6 at 2313, two Chinese almost equal
mixing, S9+20. Aoki shows at 2200-2400 RTI via Tamsui site, and CNR1
jamming from Dongfang, Hainan site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.016-, Fri Dec 6 at 2258, VOT not off the air, S9+20/30
direct. 2300 s/on as if it`s 1330 on 13635: something`s always awry at
Ankara, and olds starting with Lebanon, Syria. 2318 music. 2333 into
UTwente when measured, music at S9+45. 2334 `That`s Why` repeat about
cameras = the word originally refers to a room - and still does
alternatively. 2338 ``always-by-your-side`` promo. 2339 music, and
more music. 2353 s/off as if it`s the 1330 on 13635 - something`s
always awry at Ankara. 2354 IS for less than a semiminute until
2354.5* chop uncovering the CCCCCCI already audible. No finesse (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sat Dec 7 circa 0120, this WTWW is already on, so
hope it will still be until 0430 for WOR at 0400 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, UT Sat Dec 7 at 0050 into
Maryland SDR: 3265 & 5130 OFF. 7490 -76 Hz = 7389.924, S7/9+10 with
FKB. On 7490-, 0059, ID, deadair, finally WTO theme and opening, plugs
``freedoom of the airwaves``. Starts talking about Notre Dame
Cathedral re-opening tomorrow so this is a new one and live. May I
point out that it is a 100% RCC monument? 0115 he`s fishing around for
some music on YouTube. 0121 says is supposed to be on 7490 & 5130 but
can`t hear 5130: back in ME, check whether it`s tripped off? I check
here and it certainly is on now; in fact I stay with it for the rest
via Maryland, 5130 -30 Hz = 5129.970. Music until 0127, then lauds
Model T Fords for which parts are all still available. 0143 offers to
put Canada back on SW, cheap. 0146 finally datestamp as Dec 6, from
Studio 9 in Florida where it`s cold! 0149 they call for Biden &
Harris, not by name but by insults, to be prosecuted for high treason,
what they have done to America -- huh?? Retune 0159 just in time to
hear end of items from new Free Radio Weekly, my 1670 Oklahoma pirate.
After 0200, 5130 goes to dead air, still on a few minutes when I quit
it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17525, Fri Dec 6 at 2012, no signal from WMLK, as just
pointed out by Liangas; yet it`s not yet their imaginary Sabbath which
would start at sundown; as if The Yahweh Deity were locked into the
human idea of a 7-day week! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1650 kHz, Dec 7 at 0235 UT on the D808, I`m getting
Spanish/music from the NW = Denver, and English/sports from the NE =
Iowa, but no third signal in Spanish from the WSW, so suspect KSVE El
Paso off the air. I still haven`t had an explicit answer from anyone
close to EP, but IRCA had another thread headed KSVE on Dec 5:

Bob Wien, KG6RJW: ``KsVE 1650 El Paso wasn't running any tones last
night, I can null my local 1650 Denver station, they are not real
strong here, the tones really cut through, Denver may even be off
after midnight as I get Iowa also on 1650. Bob Wien, Aurora CO``

John Johnson: ``Didn’t hear the tones here in Phoenix, AZ. Just the
normal KFOX signal. 73, John``

Eike Bierwirth: ``This morning on 1650, I heard the usual dominant
KCNZ with KFSW Country-gospeling in the background. Wonder whether
Fort Smith is still on 250 Watts STA. But there was also a het,
roughly 1 kHz and similar in strength to KCNZ, it didn't seem local
but I didn't have time to check some kiwis. 73, Eike, Birmingham, AL,
Sony ICF-SW7600GR`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Dec 6 at 0727, JBA music, R. Vanuatu still on here.
Also reported by Manuel Méndez, Spain at least until 0806, and by Ron
Howard via a remote until 1104* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0316 UT December 7

** NETHERLANDS. 5955, Dec 5 at 0725 JBA carrier where normally I hear
nothing. Only thing listed in EiBi at this hour is low-power R.
Veronica, 24 hours, or Aoki 2200-1830. Not among 6 such stations in
WRTH 2024, rather on 5955, Sunlite Radio, 0.2 or 0.5 kW at 0500-1930
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 5 at 2253, North American REE frequency still off
today but no English to be missed at 2300 on a Thursday (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2272)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 5 at *2256, VOT cuts on with IS and IDs in
English, VG into UTwente, so not off the air for a change like it was
on Nov 29, Dec 3 and 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2272)

** U S A. 245 MCW kHz, Dec 5 at 0738, JBA carrier, most likely
previously heard FS, Sioux FallS SD, 100 or 300 watts (Glenn Hauser,

later on this frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2272)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6000, Dec 5 at 0726, JBA carrier. Unlikely remnant of
RHC, and Beijing not sked to start until 0800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 11815, Dec 4 at 0746, expecting Brasil, but in Chinese,
S5/S6 with heavy Doppler flutter, unless it`s an extremely unstable
transmitter. Same kind of Dflutter on 12055. Aoki shows 11815 at 07-09
is CNR1 jamming from Baoji-Sifan site, EiBi 11815 at 07-08 as CNR from
Beijing site, but nothing listed by either as target. 12055: EiBi at
06-08 CNR17 in Kazakh from site L; Aoki at 07-08 CNR17 Kazakh from
Lingshi 725 site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO [and non]. 800, Dec 4 at 0730 UT, distorted QRM atop KQCV
OKC, no doubt XEERG NL still not fixed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1670+ kHz, Dec 4 at 2115-2150 UT, another attempt to
locate source of Virtual DJ Radio relay, somewhere near the
intersexion of US 81 & US 412 in Enid, mostly afoot. Quite frustrating
as line noise level is awful all over Enid, varying from low to
extreme, but never near zero. Might be at one of several restaurants,
bars or stores in the area, altho there are residences only one block
to the north/west. Could be employing this to feed background music
speakers in a business, at no cost. But I never approached any with
very strong signal as a giveaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Dec 4 at 2158 into Maryland SDR, no signal again
today from REE`s N American frequency. At 2258 direct, I conclude
17715 is also off, 17755 JBA carrier, but 12030 off the back for ME is
sufficient S9. 2300 opening English, topic to be investigation into
how over 7000 patients at care-homes in Madrid died in 2020 as result
of COVID, no such toll elsewhere in Spain. 2301 news leads with
situation in South Korea (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 4 at 2258, no signal from VOT English direct;
9610 algo talk, not IS. Later in hour into UTwente, only Chinese on
5960, Mongolian? on 9610. Second night in a row with something
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28278 CW, Dec 4 at 2305, VVV DE W7UUU/B CN87, good signal
from beacon but NOT in the WGB roster on this or any frequency.
QRZ.com: ``W7UUU USA flag USA, DAVID E "Dave" Ellison, PO Box 383,
Burley, WA 98322, USA`` with impressive photos of his shack including
when it was burned out, but not a word about any beacon. Has strict
rules about QSLing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2271 monitoring: confirmed UT
Wednesday  December 4 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9/+15 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday December 4 at 0030 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003, JBA S7/S8 into UTwente. Midnight-MUFs must be way down
now.

Also confirmed Wednesday December 4 at 2041 the 2030 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.002+, S9/+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday December 4 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -76 Hz =
7489.924, S9+5/15 into Maryland SDR. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975.

** U S A. 660, Dec 4 at 0729 UT, Navajo drumming & chanting, KTNN
obviously again not nulling toward NYC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1650 kHz, Dec 4 at 0540 UT, I`m checking remotes for signs
of KSVE El Paso TX - since for a few nights we are no longer hearing
the continuous tone it had been broadcasting after 0500/now 0600?
There are two in AZ, a new? one at Concho in the northeast of WA7CCA,
and another near Phoenix. KSVE had a TUDN sports format. Instead
hearing pop tunes in Spanish, 0544 & 0546 ID for KBJD Denver; around
0600 several mentions of ``Radio La Red, Denver``.

Have queried whether DXer Robert Vance in El Paso can confirm KSVE be
off the air. He agrees no more tones, but the question is, whether
KSVE is still on the air at all, and whether still on air overnight
with anything, even a carrier, lacking the tone. Still TUDN sports in
Spanish? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** URUGUAY. 28417 USB, Dec 4 at 2307, CX3AT, Lalo, with quick contacts
in Spanish or English; took a while for him to utter his own call.
QRZ.com:
``CX3AT Uruguay flag Uruguay, LALO GIORDANO, Montevideo, Uruguay``
with lots of photos including a dog, certificates (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Dec 4 at 0743, JBA talk, so R. Vanuatu again running
past 0700 on this frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0036 UT December 5

** EGYPT. 9439.843, Dec 3 at 2150 direct, S9+10/20 vs noise level of
S9+10, music and can`t tell if very distorted; surely R. Cairo in some
rare activity for English sesquihour from 2115. Then I see these other
report in the WOR iog:

Andy Reid, Ontario at 2157: ``They are on the air tonight with a fair
signal into NAm and modulating but with a lot of distortion. 9440``

Walt Salmaniw, BC: ``Thanks, Andy. Sure enough, excellent strength
into Masset on measured 9439.854 at 2205. As I typed this, dropped the
transmitter. I am seeing something closer to nominal still there. 73,
Walt`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.882, Dec 3 at 2152, JBA carrier direct,
presumed Hikari FM, pirate. Also noted many other days and times if
not logged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 960, Dec 3 at 0739 UT, local KGWA Enid again in dead air,
or maybe JBM but that`s probably another understation (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 3 at 2258, no signal direct from REE to North
America but would be Sefardí Tuesday not English. 12030 well audible,
17715 and 17755 detectable. Same later in hour at UTwente check.
Something`s not nominal at Noblejas.

BTW, via AER we learn that REE head Antonio Buitrago will be
discussing the future of SW, [in Spanish], Wed Dec 4 at 1830, and hope
will be available later:

[AER foroDX] Radioaficionados. Ciclo de charlas: Pasado, presente y
futuro de la radiodifusión en O.C. El próximo miércoles 4 de diciembre
a las 19:30 EA-Peninsular (CEST) / 18:30 UTC, se transmitirá por el
canal YouTube de URE la charla “Pasado, presente y futuro de la
radiodifusión en O.C.”, que impartirá Antonio Buitrago, y que podréis
seguir como es habitual en:
https://www.youtube.com/ureradio

El periodista Antonio Buitrago, ha sido director de Radio Exterior de
España, conductor del programa Ondas de Ayer de Radio 5 y es Premio
Nacional de Radio. Ha dirigido y presentado el programa ‘Amigos de la
onda corta‘, y es miembro de la Asociación Española de Radioescuchas
(AER). Tiene por tanto una dilatada experiencia en el mundo de la
radiodifusión, y en particular en la radiodifusión en Onda Corta.
Antonio relanzó la onda corta en Radio Exterior de España como medio
de transmisión hacia el exterior, y gestionó la ampliación de sus
emisiones hasta las 8 horas diarias.

Por todo ello escuchar a Antonio es una enorme oportunidad para
conocer de primera mano las interioridades de estas emisiones, su
historia, el papel que juegan las entidades que están tras ellas, el
objetivo que cumplen actualmente, cuáles son los países más
interesados en mantenerla e impulsarla, la razón para ello, etc.

Esta charla nos ha parecido una buena idea para cerrar 2024, año en el
que se ha cumplido el centenario de la radiodifusión en España, a la
que se dio luz verde el 14 de junio de 1924 en el B.O.E., hecho que
constituyó oficialmente el nacimiento de la radiodifusión en España y
que permitió el establecimiento de las primeras emisoras de radio en
nuestro país.

Como es habitual, al final de la charla, Antonio estará disponible
para que le hagáis preguntas. Os esperamos el próximo 4 diciembre..
(Vìa Toni Morilla)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Dec 3 at 2257 and well past 2300, no signal in
English from VOT direct; algo on 9610. At 2322 into UTwente, 5960 with
Chinese only, 9610 with Mongolian only. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 1322.998, Tue Dec 3 at 2058, IRRS via AM Italia, tuned
in just before via UTwente and heard Jeff White standard closing for
`Wavescan` including WWCR among its outlets. As we have reported, the
only known WWCR airing, UT Sunday 0430 on 4840 had been canceled a few
weeks ago. Does Jeff not know, or is it back or at some other time?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, Dec 3 at 0720, JBA carrier so surely RV
resumed and running past 0700; just as Ron Howard had heard Dec 2:
still on to s/off at 1104* + carrier remained, instead of switching to
3945 around 0658. Meanwhile 9955 is also a JBA carrier, yet 9395 from
WRMI is S9+20/25! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
