** CANADA [and non]. 346 MCW kHz, June 25 at 0626, dash and YXL is JBA
direct, even when my ``locals`` are uncopiable vs high line and storm
noise levels, beyond perhaps a JBA carrier only: 255 SW Stillwater OK,
293 FBY Fairbury NE, 329 PMV Portsmouth NE, 332 IC Wichita KS, 395 CA
Newton/Harvs KS, 407 HRU Herington KS. All of which are 25 watts
except 400 for IC, really? The 500 watts from SiouX Lookout ON makes
the difference (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, June 25 at 0624, R. Rebelde not off the air but S9+25
making it the SSOB except for WWV. Only other broadcast detectable is
JBA carrier from Estación 4940, Venezuela, since 4840 WWCR is OFF,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser,, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2300 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke,
Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC
NRD-535 HF (30 years of service), Antenna: random long wires in the
trees, World of Radio #2300, congratulations:
9455 kHz, Static QRN, S6, S7 signal, 2330, 2344, 2345, 2358, June 22
UTC 2025 [Sun]
9395 kHz, 2330-2345, 2359 S5, S6 signal, just heard voice no ID,

2025, 73’s, Richard Lemke, 7:08 pm (Lemke, Richard -AB)``
Confirmed Tuesday June 24 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/35 into Georgia
SDR.
Also confirmed Tuesday June 24 at 2331 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.002+, S9/+10 into UTwente. Next:
1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.
Thanks for financial support this week from Gerald T. Pollard, Raleigh
NC, marking Summer Solstice, a generous check on a US bank to:
Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
One may also contribute via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9330, June 25 at 0616, NO signal from WBCQ. Also at 1456 -
but that could be during a rotation pause - NO, STILL NO SIGNAL at
1521, 1700. What`s wrong? BTW, 9330 is often unreasonably weak for
500? 250? kW, when WLC is beaming toward Brasil, off the side to here
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5935, June 25 at 0622, this WWCR is OFF instead of all-night
blasting DGS/PMS/TUN. Then I quickly discover 4840 is also OFF, having
first checked 5890 whether it be off as it is supposed to be, unlike
last night. So now, ALL WWCRs are off. What`s wrong?
At 1613, 13845 is on, 12160 is on with song ``Young Love`` during WW
Country Radio, 9980 is off. Current websked shows WWCR-4 on 9980 is
available ``13-01`` UT, meaning 12-24 UT, axual usage straight thru
those hours is only on Sat & Sun, while on M-F, 9980 is ON only at
12-14 & 22-24. Of course this will all shrink to zilch if TOMBS
axually quit radio after June 30. Has anyone found any explicit
confirmation of such plans on website, direct from TOMBS, or mention
on air? or more from Jeff White on Wavescan?
As for `WW Country Radio`, a much-needed respite from all that
politico-gospel huxtering, now sked: M-F 16-17 12160, Tue-Fri and Sun
05-06 4840. ``Ring of Fire``at 1621. These are real standards, so
wonder if any `new` shows are being produced, or just recycling
evergreens like `The Talking [sic] Machine Show` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. FCC website
https://www.fcc.gov/general/high-frequency-stations-seasonal-operating-frequency-schedules
Now has a link to A25 schedules as of April 29, but axually leads to
B24!
However if you edit the link to A25, there really is one at:
https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/A25FCC01.TXT
Also updated on the WOR homepage.
Strangeness: WTWW, finally has correct 5920 and 9930 instead of 5830
and 9940, but NOT 5085! And 12105 in case that ever reactivate third
transmitter.
Imaginary WWCR registrations: would you believe 124 entries? Covering
intraseasonal time changes, and segments within a broader span.
Frequencies not really in use now:
3195, 3215, 6090, 7390, 11775, 12180, 15795, 15825. 6090 & 11775 are
ex-Caribbean Beacon, Anguilla; 3195 was necessary only when sharing
3215 with defunct WWRB. 12180 & 7390 presumably alternates in case of
QRM to 12160, 7490. WRMI not in use: 9975, 17775, i.e. ex-KVOH. WJHR
fixionally as 50 kW on 15555 as if AM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9236.0, June 25 at 0617, weak open carrier direct, one
of the mysterious group always ending in 6. Had been accompanied by
clickery over a much broader range, but too much noise level to detect
that now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9340.4, June 25 at 0616, S6/S9 open carrier direct,
while 9330 WBCQ is AWOL. Ditto at 1456 check when it`s a JBA carrier.
What is this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, June 24 at 0629, VVV DE HK3QQ, etc. For the
record, *still* active sending corrupted letters in keyboard order. My
31m bandscans always start or end on this frequency. Lately just a
trace, but JBA tonight enough to copy definite ID (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** IRAN [non]. 12035, June 24 at 2157, R. Farda, music S8/S9,
surprisingly good direct way off-target from Woofferton (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 87.9, June 24 at 2219, dead air in $ tereo, not solid like
usually from maybe a block away, RF feeder? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, K17JN-D, the 3ABN multi-channel satellator, Enid`s
only local TV signal, is still OFF the air as of 16 UT June 24. This
has happened before and will probably eventually resume when they get
around to it. First noted missing this time on June 11. Their own ID
has been wrong for years, ``K17JI-D`` which is really in Fresno, CA
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5890, UT Tue June 24 at 0623, TOMBS on WWCR
with Bro. Edward, S9+65, ``maranatha``. // 5850 but not synch. 5890
overnight is supposedly only on weekends, usually no signal by now.
Something`s notright at Nashville.
``Maranatha [H] [S] ( 1 Corinthians 16:22 ) consists of two Aramean
words, Maran'athah, meaning, "our Lord comes," or is "coming." If the
latter interpretation is adopted, the meaning of the phrase is, "Our
Lord is coming, and he will judge those who have set him at nought."
(Compare Phil 4:5 ; James 5:8 James 5:9 .)``
``Come, Lord! In the Catechism of the Catholic Church, "Maranatha" was
translated as "Come, Lord!". In the Latin Church, the word "Maranatha"
has been used as a solemn formula of excommunication (alongside
"anathema").`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004+, June 24 at 2158, VOT not off the air, IS & ID
JBA in noise level tho S9 direct. At 2229 into UTwente when measured,
S9+25/35 TRTVOTVorld promo, music; 2253 ``always-by-your-side`` promo,
s/off, brief IS to 2254+* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 28204+ CW, June 24 at 2202, Ex10 DE KE4TRI/B beacon is JBA.

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2300 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday June 24 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+ into S Texas SDR.
Also confirmed Tuesday June 24 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, JBA S7/S9, seems
also some CCI, but nothing else is ever scheduled on 9955.
Also confirmed Tuesday June 24 at 1407 the 1400 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9
direct, and better than an hour ago.
Also confirmed Tuesday June 24 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia

** U S A. 10005-10019, 9840-9875, June 24 at 2208, approx. range of
splatter peaks out of 9930 WTWW with TOMBS, which is S9+50 and
somewhat overmodulatedistorted on fundamental, also with plus/minus
12.8 kHz parasitic spurs. Probably broader but at least not QRMing
much if tuned directly to 9955, 9980 or 10000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 780, June 24 at 0640 UT, WBBM Chicago with `StarDate` -- if
I`m awake and alert enough this late, a very reliable time for this
2-minute feature. Toward the beginning of any date, so unnecessary to
try to catch it later during our noon hour on KPR or QXFM. Not sure if
this be M-F only or everyday. So I check out the website. WBBM.com
leads to a TV station. For the radio station it`s
https://www.audacy.com/stations/wbbm780 --- guess what, lots and lots
of stuff there, but can`t find a plain old program schedule!!! And if
you`re not careful, will get sidetracked to countless other Audacy
stations. Located a search field but it can`t find StarDate with or
without a space. As usual, 780 is an afterthought to 105.9 FM as the
primary WBBM branding.
The program website:
https://stardate.org/radio/affiliates/state/illinois
includes it under Illinois; I don`t know about the other times on WBBM
AM & FM, but it lax this one! And it`s precisely at :40 past the hour,
so the others probably are too. The first one would be correct if it
were more than Monday and in CST during CDT and one minute earlier:
``Mon 12:41AM; Mon – Fri 3:41AM; Mon – Fri 9:41PM; Sat – Sun 8:41PM``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. ``Glenn, regarding your reception on 1460: That would be
Sangeet Radio in the Houston market targeting the South Asian
community. They also have an FM translator K236AR on 95.1. There are
four FM translators with South Asian oriented programming here; you
might also try for KGOL “Hum FM” which is running a 2kw days/100 watts
nights STA on 1180, so critical hours might be a better time to try
for that one.
https://sangeetradio.com
Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` - tnx; 1180 would be tough here with
IBOC from 1170 KOTV, and the Cuban radio war (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 97.3, June 24 at 2110 UT, bandscan during possible Es
opening encounters nothing except, ``continuous country Q97``, JBA.
WTFDA FMDB shows four Q97s with various punxuation which are country,
but cannot connect a ``continuous`` slogan to any of them even by
searching websites. The most likely, groundwave Garden City, doesn`t
play when I try to listen live, if I really wanted to listen long
enough to hear the utter that exact slogan again. Anyhow, the
possibilities:
KKJQ 97.3 GARDEN CITY KS 100.0 kW 244.0 m KKJQ THE DAWG - COUNTRY
Q 97 FM
WKJQ-FM 97.3 PARSONS TN 6.0 kW 78.0 m COUNTRY Q 97.3 FM

** IRAN [non]. 12035.000, June 23 at 2213 direct, S8/S9 ME music, soon
mention Farda and Iran. Much stronger than neighbor 12050 WEWN. At
2231 into Maryland SDR, VG S7/S9 with music, not news on the hour - of
course, it is the nightmiddle there. Chopoff at 2259.7* during music.
Yes, as now scheduled via Woofferton, per HFCC 1900-2300, 250 kW 90
degrees due east, so we are not directly off the back. 12035 is also
via DHA, UAE site at 04-07 & 13-17 with 250 kW at 35 degrees from
there.
Kuwait should have been the preferred SW site if Trump had not forced
it to close - almost? Monthly update from Association for
International Broadcasting June 23: ``Meanwhile there's news about
transmitting stations owned by the US Agency for Global Media. The
relay station in Kuwait that was closed down in early June has been
reactivated to allow 15 minutes of VoA Persian to be broadcast
to Iran and neighbouring countries. It is unclear who is operating the
station as the AIB understands a "manager" had been sent to Kuwait
(presumably from Washington DC) to close the operation.``
To which I replied: ``15 minutes? Why bother? Time and frequency?
source? Not in HFCC as of June 23. Of course we know that R Farda is
back on air 24h via UAE, Woofferton. From what studio, Washington,
Prague, or ??``
Full 24h schedule registered with HFCC as of June 20, first reported
by Jean-Michel Aubier. These are all routed thru Encompass. Here it is
in time order:
2300-0400 9620 (WOF)
0400-0700 12035 (DHA)
0700-1000 13710 (DHA)
1000-1300 15720 (DHA)
1300-1700 12035 (DHA)
1700-1900 9450 (DHA)
1900-2300 12035 (WOF)
9620, June 24 at 0226, VG S9+10 direct, folk song in English,
``Farewell, Angelina``, evidently by Joan Baez; radiofarda.com ID,
more music. 0230 themes and presumed news, 0235 back to music. Website
easily converts to English, but nothing there about any SW
frequencies. BTW, Farda means tomorrow, very similar to the #1 nuclear
site bombed, but I guess coincidental (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15500 & 17715 S9+20/30, 15520 S9/+10, 15390 S9 vs S8
noiselevel direct, Mon June 23 at 2200, token English from REE/SNR,
preview topic the ``evolution`` of Madrid over 3 decades, interview a
non-native who feels at home there. 2201 token news, only 2 brief
items about US attacking Iran Sat, Iran promises revenge, clip of
Drumpf; Spain`s agreement with NATO to remain in good standing despite
refusing to spend 5% of GDP on defense, now may set its own level. NO
mention of Iran attempting to bomb US base on Qatar which was several
hours ago, so this is olds, not news. 2204 already into Madrid
interview (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.020, June 23 at 2158 past 2200, no signal from VOT
English direct; something`s always erroneous at Emirler. But on by
recheck 2212, S9+10/20 in music. At 2239 into UTwente when measured,
S9+30/40. Not retune until 2254 when IS is already playing. 2256
restart IS with German IDs: here we go again, immer etwas, but chopoff
at 2259.6* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2300 monitoring: confirmed Monday
June 23 at 1938 the 1931 on SW Radio, Germany, 6160.000+ S9/+15 and

** U S A. 5129.9, June 24 at 0126 JBA signal vs HSNL must be WBCQ,
which per own websked is not on the air at all on UT Tuesday!! At 0158
I check Maryland SDR, and hear Hal Turner wrapping up with a
gold/silver commercial, whilst 6160- is off the air, but // 7490-. But
by 0200, 5130- is playing the generic WBCQ s/off. Evidently Turner has
been moved from 6160 to 5130. Why doesn`t the sked show this
correctly? Not that I care to hear him anywhere (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 7505, 9275, 5085, June 24 at 0130, these stations are NOT on
the air when they are scheduled to be: WRNO, WMLK, WTWW (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9930, June 24 at 0128, TOMBS on WTWW is S9+40/50 direct,
with JBA spur parasites plus/minus about 12.8 instead of 12.9 kHz,
i.e. 9917.2 & 9942.8; but no splatter despite huge signal on
fundamental. Continuing bandscan, by 0132 I find 5920 is on instead of
9930: is 0130 now the nominal QSY time? How old is this nonsense from
Brother Hystairical? He happened to mention ``today, 7/31/08`` (Glenn

** ANTARCTICA [non]. Re: ``"I recorded the whole 30-minute version

A slightly different version for The Documentary Podcast. So, we have
three versions: the SW version transmitted to Antarctica, the version
that went out earlier on the BBC WS streams, and the podcast
version.
By the way, this year's program has special significance for us at the
University of New Brunswick, as one of my colleagues participated in
the Canadian science expedition to Antarctica on HMCS Mary Brooke
earlier this year and did some unprecedented mapping of part of the
ocean floor down there. He also visited Rothera.

** BRAZIL. 11748.9, June 23 at 0205, JBA carrier in typical
offfrequenciness of R. Voz Missionária (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9580, June 23 at 0200, one pip and CRI relay presumed
Cantonese, very suptorted so my 100% uncomprehension was not affected.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. The ChiCom obviously don`t care
how negatively this reflect upon them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA NORTH. 13649.93, June 23 at 1453, JBA carrier. Suspected UAE
site in characteristic offfrequenciness, with WRN Russian relays, but
that does not start until 1700. Closest to this time is VOK/KCBS until
1450 per Aoki & EiBi, certainly another one with such capability

** U S A. 5830/6050, June 23 at 0213-0218, rough extent of splatter
out of WTWW 5920, during TOMBS, pinned on that rather than 5850 or
5890, by matching modulation peaks on a second receiver; takes some
doing vs high storm noise level out of west Texas, and/or Nebraska,
Minnesota. Worst of course closest to 5920. First peak noticed
5955-5965 area, then 5975-5990, trailing off above 6000, and then
traced downward to 5855 and the other side of WRMI 5850 to 5830 or so.
QRMed/blocked by non-spur signals such as 5850, 5890, 5935, without
which and HSNL it would probably be audible continually.
The other WTWW not on 5085 tonight, and have not noticed it on for
several nights now. No word yet from George about what may be the
latest problem with that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15555 USB, June 23 at 1450, JBA talk in deceased
gospelhuxter style, and not on LSB, so WJHR Milton FL. I was about to
wonder if it were silent as not heard for a week or two in random
daytime bandscans, at 1449 about to conclude that, until straining to
hear it now. Can be much stronger if it get a sporadic E boost, which
one would expect more often this time of year. Minimum legal power is
50 kW, but it`s always been much less from a glorified ham rig. WRTH
2025 page 596 says: ``1 x 0.25 kW (run at 1 kW PEP)`` How does owner
George Scott Mock get away with that? ``Plans`` a 50 kW unit? Not in
the WOR Hitlist but WRTH says website is:
https://mytgibc.com/Missions.php i.e. ``True Gospel Independent
Baptist Church``:
``WJHR Radio is a short wave radio station that broadcasts the gospel
of Jesus Christ around the world. The station has received letters
from Russia, Italy, Germany and South America to just name a few. WJHR
broadcasts nothing but preaching 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The
station was built and is maintained by Brother Scott Mock who is a
faithful member of True Gospel Baptist for many years. If you would
like to support or desire more information you can contact Brother
Mock through the church or at the radio stations email address: WJHR@
usa.com`` - I don`t think it`s ever been 24/7! Aoki shows
1400-2200, EiBi 1358-2200. That website does not explain that WJHR is
a memorial to John Hill, who I think is the only preacher ever heard
on WJHR.
On Dec 31, *2008*, Benn Kobb reported to us:
``The applicant doing business as Hill Radio International is an
individual, Scott Mock, WB4BFO, who plans to broadcast from his
Milton, FL home.
He proposes to use a custom-built transmitter and a four-element
cubical quad antenna at 90 feet AGL. He told me that this
station, which he hopes to name WJHR, will broadcast exclusively
in single sideband.
Thus, to the FCC application question of "rated unmodulated
carrier power output", he answered "Zero". The stated emission
type is B8E.
He conceded that SSB broadcasting is unusual, but feels that
there are enough SSB-capable receivers now and that his content
will be compelling.
He said the station would be a commercial operation, but would be
funded mostly by "contributions from churches that support our
beliefs." The programming will come from a 40-year collection of
recordings made at Smyrna Baptist Church in Pensacola FL.
You will recall that this church received its own construction
permit for an HF station one year ago. There are several months
left before that CP expires, but it appears that it will not be
built and that WJHR is a new version of that project.
In the license application, where the applicant must outline his
"program plans and policies", Mr. Mock simply referred the FCC to
that earlier Smyrna file "to avoid duplication." Benn``

** U S A. 1460, June 23 at 0223, South Asian singing atop the pile
right now; equal on the N/S and E/W antenna implying it is not due any
of the cardinal direxions. NRC AM Log shows the only one with such
``Asian`` format is KBRZ Missouri City/Houston TX, U1 5000/125 from
the SSE; as this is not Vietnamese = KCLE Burleson/Cleburne TX and
besides was silent as of 4/24. Of the 62 UStations on this busy
`regional` channel, only one other is ``ethnic``, WBMS Brockton MA, 30
watts - I think not (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Date and time omitted from this: 0153 UT June 22: 6861
approx., repetitive musicalish notes, no carrier, can`t get a fix to
resolve it in USB or LSB; pirate? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11580/11585, June 23 at 0201 as I bandscan, encounter a
very strong tone/carrier sweeping in this approx. range, then gone.
What? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA [non]. In the WOR iog, very useful replies to questions
raised in my previous report: The remote in the middle of the ocean
between South Africa and Antarctica: OOOPS, Kiwi map put it at
latitude south instead of north! From Alexander Miatlikov, Ukraine:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niendorf_an_der_Stecknitz
``Niendorf an der Stecknitz is a municipality in the district of
Lauenburg, in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. Coordinates: 53°35′N
10°36′E``
``I think this receiver is in Germany (Niendorf an der Stecknitz), but
registered with "S" rather than "N" in its coordinates. It could be on
a boat I supposed, but I suspect administator finger trouble. Cheers,
Chris`` Mackerell, NZ.
``I recorded the whole 30-minute version using the U. Twente SDR
receiver with good quality but it might take me awhile to do a formal
archiving. I’ll see if I can put it somewhere temporarily tomorrow and
then share the link. — Richard Langley``

** TURKEY. 9875.019-, Sunday June 22 at 2049, VOT English S9+20/30
backwards into UTwente, starting `Letterbox` after music break. Cemre
says toward end of the month the QSL dept. compiles email reports and
forwards them to her for show. That could explain why so much of the
correspondence is from QSL-seekers. 1) Bulgaria. 2) Annan? Mohand?
India, pres. of an SWL club since 1990y with 338 members worldwide.
Will have a contest about VOT, asking several questions. She answers
some of them already, such as the English service gets about 100
emails per month. 2) Andre, Russia. Letters, I guess meaning postal as
distinct from e: 3) China, two from same. 4) India? SWL club. 5)
Colorado. 6) Sichuan, China. 7) last: Malaysia, QSL for Spanish.
Closing and 2106 theme, tune-out. I have a very hard time copying
names, especially with some distortion as received by UTwente (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re previous report: ``VOSR, at 2300 on WRMI 15770, is for
Euro listeners; the guy hosting the show is known as WaveCrest Guy on
YouTube, with monitoring samples from various receivers and with
different antennas. Another great Hawaii DXer, following the lead of
such notables as Dale Park from the 80s, and Dr Richard E Wood. It's a
great spot for trans-Pacific SW and MW, if you have the right
equipment for the task. Joe Hanlon, NJ`` - so his real identity
remains hidden? So he`s a surfer? BTW, his website seems from some
template with certain parts not filled in (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
