Missionária, but a JBA carrier on 11750v. Steven Luce in Houston had
replied: ``Glenn, checking Kiwi SDRs in Brasília and São Paulo around
0020 UT January 30: No sign of RVM on 5940 or 9665. However hearing
religious themed Portuguese on 11750 with heavy slopover from presumed

anti-Christ pirate, Station YHWH running late again (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 26110 NBFM, Jan 30 at 1622 UT, KMK282 no doubt, still too
weak and noisy for full quieting with live comments on plane crash by
Felodent Drumpf, who didn`t miss a chance to make it political (Glenn

** U S A. 5085, Jan 30 at 0125, WTWW-2 reactivated, presumably
SFAWPPPP programming, S9/+20 into Maryland SDR. Also JBV [just barely
visible on waterfall] trace of parasitic spur about 5072 and more
circa 5098, as before. Latest downtime started January 7. I ask George
about this and 9475, and he replies Jan 30: ``If nothing goes wrong
with 5085, your program will air on Friday night [UT Sat 0400]. 9475
is still up in the air while I am fighting other transmitter problems.
George McClintock 1-30-2025`` And on again at 0115 check January 31
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2280)

** U S A. 5890, Jan 30 at 0737, this WWCR-4 is on with TOMBS, running
a dekasecond behind // 5850 WRMI. 5890 is supposedly overnight 06-13
UT only on Sat & Sun but this is Thu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, Jan 30 at 1625, S8/9 almost steady open carrier
direct. Suspect WEWN making comeback. Had been missing for about a
year! EiBi also has CHiCom jamming vs SOH until 1600. I asked Glen
Tapley: ``Glen, At 1625 UT today I have a strong S9 and steady open
carrier on 15610. Is that WEWN, about to come back? How about the
other transmitter which had been on 12050? Regards, Glenn Hauser`` --
and he replies: ``Hi Glenn, Yes it is WEWN. Should notice 12050 soon,
but no definite ETA. Glen`` At 1640, Maine SDR also has S9+10/20 on
15610.005, with a slight whine, not sure whether transmitted. Still on
at 1951 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2280)

** BRAZIL. 9665v, Jan 29 at 0655, NO signal from RVM, must be off. At
0701 a JBA carrier about 11750, but could be China. Need to keep
checking for RVM also on 5940- despite WWCR, Nothing on any of the 3
into Bonaire at 1850 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11860 & 11930, Jan 29 at 0703, pulse jamming about S3/S4 vs
nothing, R. Martí frequencies only in daytime. Before 0700, would have
QRMed Romania in English from 0630, foolishly chosen 11930 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 9670, Jan 29 at 0655, ME? music with drumming, S8/S9, too
strong for Channel 292, else? NO, at 0700 it *is* 292 with Germenglish
ID: even during German they pronounce 292 in English. BTW, no Brasil
9665v ACI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 11825, Jan 29 at 0702, classical music at S5/S7, presumably
NHK in Japanese as listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Jan 29 at 2300, token English from SNR, 9690, VG
into Maryland SDR, feature to be about Spain`s preliminary competition
for Eurovision Song Contest; news starts with this being the
trimonthiversary of the Valencia storm which killed more than 200, and
controversy about how the governments handled it. Other frequencies
not checked until 2346 after English. Zero signal on 12030, presumed
off; visible traces only of 17715 & 17755 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 3955 LSB, Jan 29 at 0649, ham QSO with QRDRM,
right smack dab amid BBC Woofferton DRM hour 3950-3955-3960; one may
have mentioned some noise. N5KDH with definite fonetik call, per ARRL:
ISTRE, DOUGLAS J, N5KDH, 1610 DEER PARK DR, VIDOR, TX 77662. The other
sounded like K5EEN or K5EDN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 26110 FM, Jan 29 at 1635, S5/S6 news, no doubt KMK282, aux
of KOVR/KMAX Stockton/Sacramento, too weak for full quieting (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9265, Jan 29 at 0250, WINB, S9+25 with squeals - not noticed
this particular defect on 9265 before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, Jan 29 at 0657, S6/S8 talk in presumed
Bislama, RV better than usual, but off at 0729 check rather than
running over as last few nights. 9955 WRMI undermodulated at S9+26,
not a problem. BTW, WRMI skedgrids are now ``effective Jan 26, 2025``
tho individual System blox still show March 10, 2024 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 518 kHz, Jan 29 at 0708 UT, sounds of NAVTEX. Far too
many choices in complex scheduling, but presumably something closest:
https://dxinfocentre.com/navtex.htm
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5896.5 SSB, Jan 29 at 0157 VG loud and clear signal talk
in English: at first thought a broadcaster off-frequency, until
``out``. MARS or something. Must avoid times WWCR is on 5890, never
noted while it`s on. Klingenfuß 2022 has nothing on this exact
frequency. UDXF iog has only five hits 2015-2020y as USAF MARS and/or
FEMA net (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12169-12213 approx., Jan 29 at 1629, wideband
multi-carrier, multi-tones peaking about 12202 at steady S9+26. Just
far enough above 12160 not to bother WWCR. Same sounds as long heard
circa 17450, quite weak right now; and several other ranges. What is
this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Tue Jan 28 at 2301, quite by chance into
BST1 caradio, `Atividade DX` pgm in Brasuguese from RAE relay on WRMI;
lots of DX news compiled by Arnaldo Slaen including credited to me the
Spain B24 schedule. Later a report that R. Omdurman, Sudan is
well-heard in southern S America from 0400 on 7200. ?? Well, it used
to be on 7205 but AFAIK has been inactive for some years. Later on
home rx, RAE PP still going at 2347 with multi-lingual ID; and S Texas
SDR also gets it on listed // 7780. Trouble is, neither frequency aims
at Brasil, which might be helpful: 9455 to NW and 7780 to SW (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2279 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday January 28 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+10/15 into S Texas
KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed Tuesday January 28 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, JBA S6/S8
direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday January 28 at 1509 the 1500 on WRMI 9955, JJBBA

** CUBA [and non]. 1040, Jan 27 at 0309, wobbler audible under WHO;
also try 870 and soon 0310 also hear a bit under WWL. Later, Greg
Hardison using a FL remote was hearing a new? wobbler on 1000, plus an
unID Spanish on 1005 kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 7365, Jan 27 at 0341, pulse jamming against nothing, S9+10 vs
S9 noise level, while R. Martí is unscathed on 7355 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 9790, Jan 27 at 0347, CRI English relay S9+20, nothing but
some weak unreadable spikes at modulation peaks. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 13760, Jan 27 at 0354, English closing listing some
times and frequencies, S9 = noise level minus some deep fades.
Including 800 hours, and 6110 = KNLS at 08 on 6075 and 14 on 6110, for
this is WCB`s otherstation, MWV, English to India at 02-04. ``We leave
you with Taylor Swift...`` Per EiBi, overlaps with VOK 13760 to Latin
America at 03-09, starting with Spanish but no sign of that (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 AM, Jan 27 at 0339, S9+10 of undermodulated
music: a few reports here as R. Free Euphoria:

6970 AM, Jan 27 at 0340, JBA unID pirate. none reported in HFU (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Jan 27 at 0551 UT and still 1605, NO signal from
Enid`s only local TV, K17JN-D. All multi-channels off. Perhaps if and
when resumed, 3ABN will include audio on 17-1 unlike that past several
weeks? Ahá, all back on by 2340 including sound finally on 17-1 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 6125 & 7285, Jan 27 at 0404, no signals direct from TRT
English, no loss since no `Letterbox` and no VOT (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 280 MCW kHz, Jan 27 at 0724 UT, JBA carrier.
DXinfocentre.com shows the only 280 anywhere is GYZ, Guernsey / Camp
Guernsey WY, 50 watts. RNA list shows 3 more in S America, but no
others in USA. This is between Torrington and Wheatland in SE Wyoming
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2279 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
January 26 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHx, S6/S7 into
nearby Parma SDR.

Also confirmed Sunday January 26 at 2127 the 2100 on WRN Europe
webcast.

Also confirmed Sunday January 26 at 2258 the 2230 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.002+, S6/S7 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday January 26 at 2330 on WRMI 7570 AND 7780, still,
both S9/+12 into south TX SDR, but 7570 seems weaker, a bit further
off the azimuth to NW vs SW for 7780 from Okee.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 27 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+5/20 into
S Texas SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday January 27 at 0419 on Area 51 webcast only,
18 minutes into so must have started at 0401. Earlier I was monitoring
5130- direct to hear what would happen. 0400 nondescript music playing
until 0403* chop without a WORd, whew.

** U S A. Since CBS dispensed with 60 Minutes for yet another stupid
ballgame, clear to hear `Le Show` with Harry Shearer via WBCQ 7490
stream. Toward the end, Harry coined a much-needed neologism for the
next quadriyear, in case any president should also be a convicted
felon: FELODENT!! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, Jan 27 at 0345, WMLK, S9+30/40 of ``bilge`` as Ralph
Perry rates their output; accompanied by squealy spurs +/- only 5 kHz,
so better than some brethren (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1070, Jan 27 at 0316 UT, dead air except for a low roar,
must be from my nearby dominator, KFTI Wichita (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VATICAN. 9885, Jan 27 at 0349, S9+20/30 in excited African language
with gunfire, screams, drama? Per EiBi, 0330-0430 is VOA KNK via SMG
to E Africa, i.e. Kirundi/Kinyarwanda. That explains the bigsig, more
of it over here than there, I suspect. Violating Separation Of Church
And State (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1290, Jan 27 at 0740 UT, open carrier atop the pile.
Closest are KUOA AR, KWFS TX, but less than 100 watts at night; and
KMMM Pratt KS with 500 W; KOIL Omaha NE has 5 kW but supposedly
direxional away (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9236, Jan 27 at 0343, S9+30 open carrier except for clix
exactly once per second, maybe practicing to be time signaler but no
minute markers; the clix are also audible out to 9223/9248 on two
different antennas, i.e. +/- 12/13 kHz. Whatzit? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
