** KUWAIT. 7590, March 10 at 0613, JBA music. EiBi shows R. Farda at
0230-0830 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 8828 USB, March 10 until 0625* mostly numerical by
monotone OM voice, ``--? VOLMET, out``. EiBi shows Auckland starting
at :20 and :50 past the hours, 24h timeshared with Kong Kong at :15,
:45; Tokyo at :10, :40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. Tropo is up, with Tulsa/Okmulgee/Eufaula UHF TV sigs
decoding for first time in long time, and most `open` channels have at
least BAD signals into Zenith STB from my rooftop antenna still
permanently aimed SSE toward OKC, March 10 at 1552, including: RF 28 =
Ion 44-1; RF 31 OETA 3-1 = KOET; RF 20 KQCW-HD 19-1; and RF 28 KJRH
2-11. KJRH is NBC affil, originally KVOO-TV, but what`s it doing on
this obscure sub-channel? Soon fades below decoding level. I would not
have noticed it tuning by RF channels, but at virtual 2 it came up.
Strangely enough, searching rabbitears.info on KJRH calls shows it
only on RF8 as 02-1. RF 28 is axually KTPX-TV Okmulgee, virtual 44 for
ION. If you bring that one up, it does show KJRH as 2-11. BTW, this
Zenith set-top-box DTV converter must be left on all the time. If
turned off or a power failure, it`s tough to get it to turn back on
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9610.018-, Sunday March 9 at 2201, S9+35/40 into UTwente,
well above annoying ChiCom Mongolian CCI of CNR8, VOT English amid
music break, 2204 `Letterbox` continues with one from Bangladesh,
names Turkey`s best university. 2207 Liam? Spencer, USA, 15-year-old
from Colorado, heard 6125. Hostess glad to hear from such a young SWL,
implying SW is not dead yet. 2209 Jayanta Chakraborty, north India,
``Dear Sir``, plugs freedom of religion in India; she distances
herself from a commentary on Mon & Wed which is translated from TRT
World website opinion sexion, not originated by VOT or its English
dept. 2222 ``that`s a wrap``, hostess names herself, sounds like
``Jamie`` but probably not, and closing song. 2216 `LBox` theme/outro
as there is briefly some OTH radar? cliQRM until 2219.5, no more.
``always-by-your-side`` promo, 2217 song. 2222 TRTVOTVorld.com promo,
music. 2225 s/off as if 1330 on 13635, and 9 notes of IS before chop
2226* uncovering CNR8.
I miss the next repeat if it succeeded, circa 2320 on 5960, so plan to
catch the first part of L`Box on final repeat circa 0415 on
6125/7285.
Indeed, I do, tuning in a bit earlier via UTwente to 6125.004+, S9+45,
perfect reception, in strength, modulation quality, no QRM, better
than sufficient // 7285.018-, S9+5/15. March 10 at 0416 a commentary
about Sa`udi influence and policies concerning tribes in Syria and the
Levant; outro as by an international relations expert, name not
understood. Then program outro as `The Pulse of Turkish Foreign
Policy`. 0420.5 music. 0424 TRTVOTVOrld.com promo in 41 {sic; more
added?} languages, and `Letterbox` theme, opening. 0425 YL hostess
says Ramadan started a week ago and is still getting used to fasting
all day, and feels less energetic since she can`t have any coffee or
tea - sounds fine and awake to me. 0425 Siddartha ---, reported 3-8
Feb at 1730, SINPOs all 44444: how many NGOs in Turkey? 122, relying
on donations, also some state support. Malik -- --, Pakistan: glowing
review of VOT. 0429 got email from EBU about ticket competition? for
Eurovision Song Contest, Basel in May. She always enjoyed it as a
child. Turkey not participating for a few years, a loss. Song quality
not that good, but fun like a party. 0430 music break: Anatolian pop
rock, names not understood - sounds like a scratchy vinyl at start.
0435 wanted to resume ``question of the month`` but manager nixed it.
Next, about what is the largest university in Turkey? by km2, by
number of students, but the best academically is a private one, name
not understood - etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 8782, March 10 at 0622 tune-in, few words by YL in SSB,
``Forecast center``? Then Morse code ID once as KFS and off. Could
call it CW, but was still tuned to exactly 8782.0 where SSB was clear.
Klingenfuß 2022 says it`s channel 822 for coast stations, QSX 8258,
but no KFS, only EQJ, PPR and XSQ. EiBi shows 8782, 24h for KFS, Rio
Vista CA, and also 24h XSQ Guangzhou (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
March 9 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.997+, S9 into UTwente

** U S A. 9955, March 10 at 1544, WRMI-3 is off already as nominally
to 1530 in DST season, ex-until 1630 in ST season (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR0
** U S A. 15150, March 10 at 1537, WMLK infested by unstable spurs
circa +/- 4X kHz, at least 15142, 15146, 15154, 15158, much like the
17525 galaxy before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7260, March 10 at 0613, JBA signal presumed R. Vanuatu and
still not on 9960. Due to the imposition of DST I shall probably be
monitoring more in the 06 UT hour than the 07+ (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 810.57 kHz, March 10 at 0554 UT, JBA carrier detectable
again aside 810 WHB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4200, 4800, 5100, 5400, March 10 at 0325 past 0405, and
0549-0601 UT, pips/beeps/carriers on and off at regular odd intervals
amounting to about 26X per minute on frequencies exactly 300 kHz
apart. Something never heard before. Details:
0325, found first on 4800.00 during bandscan; still past 0405. At 0407
found also on 5100, but fraxion of a second delayed using two rx, but
maybe because of different DSP delays in rx. And soon also on 5400
which is synched with 5100. Then I check other +/- 300 kHz spots for
this: NOT on 4200, 4500, 5700. Suspended chex 0416 as it`s almost time
for V of Turkey `Letterbox`, q.v.
0549 resume checking direct: 4800, 5100 and 5400, the latter with
almost double-pips, two sites? Now ALSO on 4200, but NOT on: 3900,
3600, 3300, 3000, 2700; 6000, 6300, 6600. At 0557: NOT on 4200, 4500,
but YES on: 4800, 5100, 5400. Not expecting any break for ToH ID at
0600, but listening just in case: NONE on 4800, 5100, 5400. So, what`s
going on here? Of course, nothing to be heard at next check in daytime
1545 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7725 CW, March 10 at 0616 UT, weak beeps at 24/minute,
related or not to the even 300 kHz intervals? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 8918 USB, March 10 at 0626, ATC comms, mentions 0625,
how copy? EiBi shows shared among Gander, New York and Piarco =
Trinidad (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST update
Hi Glenn, my latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm
1) Updated UTC offset notations for change to DST: Cuba (Habana R, R
Progreso, R Rebelde), USA (R Martí, V of America)
2) Turkey - Added a link to the TRT Global
Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe
** ITALY [and non]. 7399.906, March 9 at 1624, tune in UTwente just in
time for publicized monthly broadcast of Marconi Radio International
on ``7400`` until 1630 --- S8/S9 with Italian? talk vs much stronger
ACI from 7404.984 with ``shortwave`` jingle, Dutch? presumably R.
Piepzender as both these are the only stations anywhere, anywhen on
7395 & 7400. 7399.906 still going ast 1635 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 1549.82, March 9 at 0730, besides 1 kHz tones from unknown
US station, the JBA carrier hetting also detectable, maybe partway to
1549.81, presumed XEREL Morelia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 11934.893, March 9 at 1945, huge buzz atop Arabic
from Rep. of Yemen Radio via Riyadh, S9+20/30 into UTwente. Presumably
transmitter fault rather than jamming. Had been clear of this for
several weeks. Tnx tip from Tony Rogers and David Morris, bdxc (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday March 9 from 0511 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+15/20 with some
storm crashes into nearby SDR; very late after nominal 0415 as Houston
AMSAT started an hour late at 0400, after TWIAR, and before ARRL News.
From next week: WOR nominal 0315. Next:
2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy;
2230 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
2330 UT Sunday WRMI 7570 to NW [and/or 7780];

** U S A. 7505, March 9 at 0654 UT, WRNO on late again unpredictably,
S9+25 with song, presumably hymn (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. MW bandscan during the Hour of Confusion, March 9
after 0700 UT, hits several frequencies with 1 kHz tones, no doubt
from unattended and failed satellite feeds; exacerbated due to the
imposition of DST. These are not hets since the pitch peaks the same
on LSB and USB.
680, March 9 at 0714-0718+ UT, tone on for 30 seconds, off for 20
seconds, over and over. No announcement between, and not CJOB which is
continuously audible mixing with Manitoba mentions, intruding as usual
into American Airspace. Most likely my regular KFEQ, St Joseph MO, or
possibly KKYX San Antonio TX.
870, March 9 at 0719 UT, no doubt WWL New Orleans, 1 kHz tones
alternating with announcement, ``Westwood One, SES? something,
transponder 17, call 720-873-5177 between 8 am and 10 pm Eastern
time`` - that is not heard on most of the others but possibly only due
to QRM while the tones are clearly audible. AC 720 is Denver CO
overlaying 303, uplink location?
1100, March 9 at 0721 UT, S9+30 of dead air, no doubt WTAM. It`s
normally // but not synch with 1110 KFAB which is nominal now, and by
0727 WTAM modulation matches KFAB. No tones heard here.
1300, March 9 at 0722 UT, 1 kHz tone and unreadable announcement,
probably like on WWL. Too many possibilities, from KAKC Tulsa to
Nebraska, Texans, etc.
1380, March 9 at 0723 UT, 1 kHz tone on and off. Which?
1470, March 9 at 0725 UT, 1 kHz tone on and off. Which?
1550, March 9 at 0726 UT, 1 kHz tone on and off. Which?
Meanwhile I scan up and down the band a few more times in case I
missed some more tonals during pauses (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS
updated for North American DST season March 9, before confirmations
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
** CANADA. Official SWL Channel of Gilles Letourneau, Québec, often
activates on Saturday afternoon. I check him from time to time, but
there is too much going on Saturday afternoons for me to follow one
thing for 5+ hours, starting circa 2000 UT:
https://www.youtube.com/live/RRzaF4LPGlE
I happen to retune about 0110 UT March 9, and there he is ``dancing``
or rather ``handing`` or gesturing to ``Midnight in Moscow`` music.
The whole shebang apparently shows him seated by his radios, chatting
with participants, some of the 50K followers he has accumulated. That
was apparently the final performance this week as the feed froze by
0112 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY. 9670, Saturday March 8 at 1800, `From the Isle of Music`
via Channel 292, VG into UTwente, delayed almost a minute behind 3955,
but much better VG signal on 9670 until fading down last new minutes
before 1900. Inconvenient scheduling, since it collides with `Talking
Machine Show` on WWCR 12160, and Metropolitan Opera. I had to miss the
first hour of `La Bohème`. Same situation next week for his other
monthly, `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, unless I can manage to catch its
first and only other airing, Friday at 2200 on 3955 only, as UB will
not availablize his shows ondemand online, in support of the shortwave
medium (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, UT Sat March 8 at 0237, JBA music, no doubt
Ball Smacker Radio on its reliable Friday-evening frequency and time;
more reports here:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141935.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6849.9 AM, Sat Mar 8 at 0238, disco beat music JBA.
More reports here as Liquid Radio on 6850, but none later than 0232:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141937.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17715, Fri March 7 at 2222, another frequency missing from
REE, the one for SAm which is second-best for us in the also continued
absence of 12030 for ME. Still on 17755 for Af, VG S9+30 9690 for NAm.
2300 token English previews topic about a feminist leader for
International Women`s Day. All checked direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9610, March 7 at 2315 direct, algo weak can`t tell if VOT
English, and nothing on 5960. At 2332 into UTwente, only Chinese on
5960, only Mongolian on 9610. VOT a total loss; but this saves them
from another error, German after 2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.003+, Sat Mar 8 at 2300, VOT English not off
the air; something`s not erroneous at Emirler, S9+25/40 into UTwente
and not even tried direct. Some hum, and somewhat
overmodulatedistorted. News already over at 2311 music. 2317
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2320 talk about Feb 2023
earthquaxe, pipeline from Azerbaijan, Georgia. Not sure of title, but
sounds familiar. 2226 music. 2330 TRTVOTVorld promo. By now there is
CCCCCCI which does not make it easier to understand Efsun the
axentuated who is back! talking about something, 2243 outro title was
`Dream Destinations`, I have to check Roe`s sked to find; music. 2347
``always-by-your-side`` promo again, repeat feature about famous cats
from the White House to Hermitage to Key West. 2351 music. 2353
``with-you-every-hour`` promo. 2354 s/off as if it`s the 1330 on
13635, awry. 2355 first notes of IS about one sesquitime, and chop
off* uncovering ChiComusic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed Friday
March 7 at 2315 the 2300 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 direct and
undermodulated. From next week: 2200.
Also confirmed Friday March 7 at 2333 the 2330 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003, S8/9+5 into UTwente.
Not confirmed UT Sat Mar 8 at 0400 on WTWW 5085, remains off air. From
next week, if on: 0300. Stream is not working either, tho when it did,
WOR was not to be heard even when airing on 5085.
Confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1542 the 1530 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.000, S8/9+10 into UTwente. Almost QRM-free: nothing on 6155,
strong music on 6150, presumably Europa 24 from Germany; weak algo on
6165 with warble, CRI Pashto via Urumqi.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1700 on WRN North America stream.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 1833 the 1830 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003-, S9+10 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 from 2028 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO,
S9+20 into nearby SDR by groundwave. From next week: 1930v.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 2030 on WRN North America stream.
Also confirmed Saturday March 8 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream. There is
always a pregnant pause of about 10 sex between their WRN intro and me
starting. Next:
0330vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0600];

** U S A. 9930, March 7 at 2229, no signal from WTWW-1 with TOMBS, nor
at morning check today. 9475 still missing from WTWW-2 so totally off.
Probably not on subsequent night frequencies either, 5920 & 5085.
However, 9930 found on with TOMBS at 0044, but gone again at 0120, nor
on 5920; but 5920 is on at 0305 & 0357 chex, not 5085 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, UT Sat Mar 8 at 0043 into NH
SDR: 7490 -77 Hz = 7489.23, S9+15 of FKB; 9330.00, S7/S9 of WLCR in
Portuguese; 6160, 5130 & 3265 all OFF. At *0055, 5130 -25 Hz =
5129.975 with The Planet ID & IS loop. 6160 -68 Hz = 6159.932 now on
at S9+10 with some music. At 0100, only 5130 & 7490 join for `AAAWWW`
this week, not 9330, not announced as originally aired last week, but
it is obvious rerun as talkover during theme includes ``Either or not,
we`re coming thru ... billions & billions of radio receivers out
there...`` and quick interjexion at end sounds like ``Fab-u-4``, segué
to ``Turn Your Radio On`` hymn; tuneout (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WRMI sked grid is now ``as of March 9, 2025`` per the
header, but each individual System program grid is *still* dated as
``effective March 10, 2024``!!! Altho each has doubtless been changed
numerous times in the past year, and we still spot some of the same
old errors concerning WOR and other programs, never 100% matching
reality of what really airs:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pcIEX8kisrOPqlXHDAq6gympKUgDj0SIb96qce2kGGQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 17509 JBA, 17513, 17517, 17521; 17529, 17533, 17537, JBA on
17541, slightly unstable spur carriers at 4x kHz intervals above and
below 17525, obviously emanating from that S9+30 WMLK, March 7 at
2221.
At 0158 March 8: ``More fun from WMLK? I'm seeing a really strong
carrier, no audio, on 17525 during the past 30 minutes (the 0100 UT
hour). Only noting this due to some recent mentions of them on 17525.
I see it on several SDRs I've checked as well. Did someone lock up for
the night and forget to turn out the lights? Tony Pavick, Hope BC
Canada`` -- In a hurry for Sabbath? Could not go back to do ``work``
after sunset just to turn it off? Yahweh`ll get `em for that?
Apparently it did get turned off eventually. Hmmm, does automation
count as illegal ``work`` since set up by believers? (Glenn Hauser,

** U S A. 880, Sat Mar 8 at 0806 UT, KRVN, Lexington NE starting `Our
American Stories`, usual dominant signal here. From next week: 0706
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7636.0, March 8 at 0713, open carrier at S9+ plus clix
once per second. Same as logged March 4. No other significant hits in
archive to explain it. Also had 9236 on Feb 26, but this time
instead:
Also 9126.0 at 0716 March 8, S2/S3 carrier but only occasional random
clix. Searching my archive on 9126 gets this hit, maybe coincidental,
Sept 13, 2024 from:
``Takahito Akabayashi, Tokyo, Japan --- According to Japanese radio
amateur Ryota Mitobayashi, JJ1WTL, US-based companies have set up 4
Experimental Shortwave Financial Data Trading stations in Japan. All
the stations are located in Boso peninsula, Chiba prefecture, about
100 km southeast from Tokyo. Details of the 4 stations are as follows.

UNIDENTIFIED. 21480-21490, March 7 at 2219, DRMish noise direct.
Nothing of any ilk listed on 21485 per HFCC, Aoki, EiBi, drmrx.
Suspect could be another China DRM, but sounds not quite normal with
some pulsing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Lake ON. Hadn`t heard this one in a long time.
346 MCW kHz, March 7 at 0725 UT, dash and YXL, Sioux Lookout ON. Also

** MEXICO. 800, March 7 at 0712 UT, heavy distorted mess from XEERG vs
KQCV OKC, still unfixed. I wonder if CKLW and PJB listeners also have
a problelm with it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SCOTLAND [non]. I was complaining about music being hard to find on
SW vs talk formats. But unlike some stations with only one or three
transmitters, there are plenty of music blox on one WRMI or another,
altho only one classical: `Encore`. Turned on my BSR1 caradio, Friday
March 7 around 2030 and there it was, already tuned to 15770. Fair
signal but never a blaster here since it`s aimed NE. Too bad not a
single WRMI in daytime be aimed across N America, and should be on 13
MHz or higher. I had already heard this new biweekly episode at first
airing, UT Fri Mar 7 at 0200 on 5850. Other WRMI times: UT Sun 0100 on
5850, UT Mon 0300 on 5950, Tue 1300 on 15770. 5950 is subject to DST
shifts unlike the others, so should already be at 0200 UT Monday
when the System L sked shows it should also be on 7730 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. As if in reply to my observation that I`ve heard no
trace of any CW beacons on the ISM band for months, are any active?
These logs in CIDX Messenger:
``13566.50 kHz CW; 1519 UT Feb. 26. KE4TWI. HiFER (High Frequency
Experimental Radio) CW beacon in Lebanon, TN. Weak. These
transmissions occur within the ISM band
(Industrial/Scientific/Medical) where unlicensed experimental
operation is allowed, but with very low power levels (mW range). In
hobbyist lingo this is the "22m HiFER" band, which is 13553 to 13567
kHz (Hudak-ON)
13566.55 kHz CW; 1456 UT Feb. 22. RVA. HiFER CW beacon. Richmond, VA.
Weak to fair (Hudak-ON)

** U S A. 830, March 7 at 0707 UT, WCCO with `The Other Side of

with 720, so I wonder if it originate at WGN? He is // WGN 720 but
about 8 words behind WCCO. So he`s on WCCO before WGN. Search leads to
Frank Morano also on WABC ``live and local`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. LW bandscan, full of tantalizing JBA carriers of ND
beacons, March 7 at 0713-0739 UT. If only my local noise level could

UNIDENTIFIED. 810.57, March 7 at 0710 UT, JBA mystery carrier hetting
810.00 WHB. I`ve DFed it more than once as roughly 100/280 degrees
from Enid. Now we need others to get a bearing from other angles to
triangulate it. This can be done on a hand-held portable with built-in
ferrite rod antenna, preferably with BFO, not with otherwise superior
fancy fixed antennas which have such a disadvantage (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A. Re my non-reception of 17525 WMLK: ``17525 is still active
and was noted at 1630 UT today [March 5]. One thing I will say
about WMLK is that compared to WINB they have a far better quality
signal. WINB always sounds really compressed. Source programme issue
maybe? Tony Pavick, Hope BC``
Today March 6 at 1633, no 17525 but on 15150, S9+10/15 into Wichita
SDR; 1658 s/off with address for reports, bit of music till 1700*
sharp. Original schedule was 15150 to 1700, 17525 from 1730. Via
UTwente I sit on 17525, which cuts on S9/+10 carrier 17525.011- at
*1727, 1730 s/on giving ``licensed to broadcast at 0400-0900 &
1700-2200`` but no frequencies mentioned!

1730-1830 in A-25 if VOA retains that frequency. Of course the entire

** U S A. 4831.20, March 6 at 0659, JBA carrier, suspect spur out of
very strong WWCR-3, 4840; but no match +8.8 kHz on other side. This is
quite steady unlike the spurfield out of 5935 WWCR-2. New transmitter
sked from March 9 for DST season is now up showing some changes,
mostly one-hour shifts in some spans, but not all to earlier:
https://www.wwcr.com/transmitter-sched.html
We expect all programming moves one UT hour earlier to stay at same
Central time after the imposition of daylight-shifting (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7260, March 6 at 0657, RV is already here in JBA music, no
9960, and 7260 continues after 0700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2285)
** VATICAN. 15565, March 6 at 0716, JBA carrier, the OSOB except for
15770 WRMI also very weak. SMG site in convoluted schedule of
languages and times (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED [non]. 13554-13566, March 6 at 1633, NO trace of any CW
beacon in the ``HIFER`` ISM band -- just the local RF ID clutterstuff
around 13560. I bandscan this at least once a day or night, but
nothing heard for several months. Used to occasionally pull one. Is it
only my noise level, propagation, or are few of these really active?
Look at this list and hunt them:

UNIDENTIFIED. 15916.0, March 6 at 1618, open carrier except for clix
every second, S7/S8 but which are detectable out to 15902/15927; same
as recently heard on 7636.0, 9236.0, no listings for any in Klingenfuß
2022. Perhaps significant that they all end in 6? What are they?
