Hauser
** CUBA. 6000, Sept 15 at 0418, RHC English S9+50 direct but
overmodulated/distorted. It`s always something wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9790, Sept 15 at 0421, CRI relay only S8 and JBM = just
barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760 & 15140, Sept 15 at 1501, for the record, Sunday-only
RHC Esperanto missing from both known frequencies as to be expected. I
expect the first airing at 0700 has also been missing; what about the
third airing Sunday afternoons at uncertain time and frequency? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sept 15 at 0423, Station YHWH pirate is S6/S8
but undermodulated so JBA. Somewhat better still on at 0520 when I can
make out a few words (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [non]. 780, Sept 15 at 0414 UT and later, WBBM Chicago in
the clear, no daytimer KSPI Stillwater on air tonight unlike last
night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PUERTO RICO [and non]. 391 MCW kHz, Sept 15 at 0535 UT, ND beacon
DDP, 2000 watts at San Juan/Dorado - Luís Muñoz Marín Intl AP. Tuning
upward, first copied at 389 USB, audible only on E/W loop into R75.
Great to hear this again, one of few such remaining active beyond
North America. My last previous log:

``391 MCW kHz, Dec 31, 2023 at 0418 UT, DDP, 1 or 2-kW NDB at San
Juan/Dorado, again at 3677 km = 2284 stmi. Must be alert for 369 ZDX
Antigua, 323 TAB T&T``

But current RNA list shows ZDX 369 last logged 2024-02-19; and TAB 323
Trinidad last logged 2024-08-25 with ``0`` watts. Are there any others
in Caribbean, Central or northern S America still active? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.005, Sept 14 at 2214, VOT English not off the air,
S9/+15 into UTwente, considerably weaker than normal but sufficient.
`The Energy Agenda` is underway until 2218 music. 2222 multi-lingual
ID filler reel. 2224 song. 2229 `Turkey`s Geomarked Products` repeat
about copper handicrafts from Marash(?). 2236 ``with-you-every-hour``
promo, music. 2241 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2246
multi-lingual ID filler reel AGAIN this hour. Something`s always awry
at Ankara. 2248 music. 2252 s/off as if the 1230 on 17620. 2253 IS to
2255.7* chopoff (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. ND beacons audible tnx to lowering noise level - only S7/S8
and improving conditions, Sept 15 at 0522-0527 UT on NRD-545 with E/W
longwire:
329 MCW, PMV, 25 watts at Plattsmouth NE, last logged Jan 28, 2024
344 MCW, JL, Joplin MO, 0 watts in RNA list = I suppose, unknown
power, `Lunns`
353 MCW, LI, Little Rock AR, 400 W, `Lasky`
356 MCW, ODX, Ord NE, 25 W
After 0535, I compare on R75 with E/W loop; different results:
251 MCW, AM, Amarillo TX, 400 W, `Pande` -- but see PUERTO RICO!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2260 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
September 14 at 2300 on WTWW 9475, VP S8/S9 into UTwente, so not aimed
at Europe? ACI from 9470. At 2259.5 had dumped out of PPPP for ID and
WOR on time. 9475 of course VG direct.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 15 at 0005 the 0000 on WRMI 9955.
Bonaire SDR not available but I see on Kiwimap a new? one in
Cundinamarca, so try it: good, S9+10/20. It reads 12 Hz high for WWV
and me.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 15 from 0315, the 0315v on WA0RCR,
1860 AM, MO, right on nominal time! S9/+15 into KM4RT SDR near
Memphis; S9/+10 into W8BUG SDR Knoxville but which lax a waterfall.
Next:

Also confirmed Sunday September 15 at 1900 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.995, S9+5 into UTwente across Europe.

UNIDENTIFIED. 711 kHz, Sept 15 at 0540 & 0546 UT, only hit in a full
9/kHz bandscan for JBA TA carriers - presumably El Aaiún, Morocco 300
kW, a.k.a. Western Sahara - unless it`s a Cuban +1 kHz spoiler like
631, 891 and 1141 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BOTSWANA. 5925, Sept 14 at 0412, rock music, poor signal, need LSB
tuning to minimize the hash from 5935 WWCR. EiBi shows it`s merely VOA
English at 0300-0500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 14 at 0411, R. Rebelde is OFF rather than merely
dead air. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 14 at 0414, RHC English S9+30/40 but distorted.
Unfound on any other frequency such as 9700 or 15230. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 3955 & 6070, Sept 14 at 1915, Channel 292 with `From
the Isle of Music` featuring classical music for a change; that sure
is nice. From Cubadisco 2024 award winners. I notice that the two
frequencies are several sex out of synch, why?: 6070.001+ and
3955.002- both S9/+10 and equally noisy into UTwente with considerable
fading. At least in synch mode, 3955 has intermittent het but can`t
locate it to a specific frequency by side-tuning. Need to narrow
bandwidth, unfortunately. 1933 inserts Ch 292 IDs in German and
Spanish by YL voice, AI? She also solicits more funding for more power
and/or more than monthly programs. It seems UBill is playing
commercial - pardon the expression, recordings with labels, in what
format, CD? Repeats at 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sept 14 at 0418, pirate YHWH is JBA with
undermodulated talk, S8/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 780, Sept 14 at 0401, WBBM is getting heavy
rock music QRM, must be cheating DAYTIMER, KSPI Stillwater, better on
E/W loop than N/S shortwire. I try to // translator on 94.3 into
DX-398, but tropo is up from Kansas, Bott owning channel. Still at
0419, S9+10. (I do get the real separately programed KSPI-FM on 93.7
with RDS stuck at tune in: ``ILLWATER``, indeed! later scrolls to
``STILLWATER`S SPI 93.7``). Back to 780 at 0648, still rock vs WBBM,
and 0651 ``94.3, Stillwater`s alternative`` non-ID, so that clinches
it. I assume they also stillcall themselves ``Pete 94.3`` after the
OSU ``Pistol Pete`` politically incorrect mascot. Perhaps only a
campus shooting there would make them reconsider. Anyhow, licensed as
D1 250 watts -- ND daytime ONLY. WBBM is ruined here but the
Stillwaterians are totally blocked from hearing one of few genuine
all-news stations remaining (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Sept 14 at 0713, JBA carrier, obviously SIBC
in absence of 5025 Cuba. Might become listenable if I were up later.
Honiara sunset today is 0717 and near-equatorial, varies little during
year, 0708/0735 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2260 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday September 14 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, VG direct. As usual
followed by about a minute of music before cutoff 0330* without ID or
sign-off announcement.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 0955 the 0930 on WRMI 9455,
S5/S8 direct: can only check this one when I happen to awaken during
that semihour.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1441 the 1430 on SW Gold
Radio, Germany, 6160.000+, S9 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1600 on WRN North America
webcast. There is always a several-second pause between their intro
and my start; not a problem but I wonder why, as there is no initial
deadair on my files.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1737 the 1730 on SW Gold
Radio, Germany, S9/+5 on 6160.000- with ACI from 6165; and S9+5/10 on
3975.002+ into Utwente.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1930 on WRMI webcast only, and
WRN North America webcast.

NOT confirmed on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, nominal 1930v Sat Sept 14: This
Week in Amateur Radio still playing by 1955 when remote in IL times
out, which I am having to use since usual nearby one in Warrenton MO
is offline. Next:

2300 UT Saturday WTWW 9475;
0000 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?];

One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank in US funds to:
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 880, Sept 14 at 0655, Mexmx again in the mix with WHSQ, KRVN
and English gospel huxter, probably KHAC AZ/NM. 0702 non-ID ``La
Tremenda`` so it`s WIJR, Highland IL, slogan as in NRC AM Log, U4
1700/160 from just east of St Louis MO, day and night patterns toward
SW, away from NYC - yes, always an obstacle to WCBS here, but now it
no longer matters! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 760.06 approx., Sept 14 at 0407 LAH = low audible
heterodyne on plus side of 760.0 stations like WJR/KCCV. Nothing
nearly that far off in mwoffsets list (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 14 at 0353:
only 855 in full 9/kHz bandscan, and it`s really JJBBA, presumably
SPAIN. So many of the UK and Spain MWs are deceased or depowered.
MWlist still shows 9 RNE synchros here up to 100 kW 24h but also
hipowers in Romania, Ethiopia, Sa`udi Arabia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 970, Sept 14 at 0359, Spanish dominant, mentions
``faul`` so a béisbol game or sportstalk about it. In NRC AM Log, only
two USA SS listed, neither at all likely, silent in Florida or
religious in Maryland. So Mexico: IRCA Mexican Log has four, headed by
Radio Fórmula flagship XERFR Mexico City, 50/5 kW and only one other
maybe, XEJ Juárez, Chihua2, 1/1 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6938 AM, Sept 14 at 0416, S9/+10 open carrier. Is it a
pirate or a ute? Nothing currently in HF Underground. Ricky Leong,
Alberta, also had this Sept 9 at 0503 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 6070-, Sept 13 at 0700, CFRX but a JBA carrier in disturbed
northerly propagation rather than usual reliable signal (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CANADA [non]. Re my log of CY9C: Experience the CY9C DXpedition on
the rugged and remote St. Paul Island, located off the coast of Nova
Scotia, Canada. In this exclusive on-island interview, team member
Craig Thompson, K9CT, provides an in-depth look at St. Paul Island,
ranked 50th on the DXCC most-wanted list. He discusses the island’s
challenging weather, its historical significance, and the
extraordinary efforts required to reach this isolated location,
including the rare use of helicopters. Craig introduces the dedicated
team of operators and details the radio and antenna capabilities
driving the CY9C operation. Gain insights into the leadership and
teamwork that keep the mission on track in such a demanding
environment. As the DXpedition enters its final days, the team
encourages radio operators worldwide to make contact with CY9C before
the operation concludes. Watch the full interview, subscribe to the
channel, and join the conversation!

(via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 13 at 0651, S9+40/45 of dead air in Spanish from
R. Rebelde. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Sept 13 at 1449, S5/S8 of suptorted Spanish, I think,
about all that`s left of RHC, where something`s always very wrong
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 15590, Sept 13 at 1452, informal M&W conversation
about how a taxi driver managed without GPS, American English so has
to be CRI; yes, as sked via Urumqi, 308 degrees to Europe, the SSOB,
S8/S9 but with very heavy flutter. The GC path to Enid from Urumqi in
the northern lobe of E.T., passes only a few degrees on the Russian
side of the North Pole; while Kashgar site in the western lobe of
E.T., passes only a few degrees on the Greenland side of the North
Pole (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sept 13 a 0258, Station YHWH, anti-Christ
pirate is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, Sept 13 at 1455, JBA carrier on the
signature frequency of that pirate last known as Hikari FM, allegedly
just across the AZ border in Mexico. The op told Dan Robinson he
hasn`t decided what to call it next when he gets stuff fixed and
powered up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Sept 13 at 0642, ``News on 6`` KOTV promo for
Dallas Cowboys radio network on Sunday afternoons - so is apparently
not 100% TV audio simulcast. But why broadcast the enemy? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA [non?]. 11935.8 approx., Sept 13 at 1457 direct, S4/S5
nothing but chirps audible, Iranian jamming? Cannot pin on an exact
frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, VG direct, also 17715, 15520 but 15390 still off, Fri
Sept 13 at 2200, token English from SNR. 2202 news about strained
relations with Venezuela as Maduro`s winning opponent has taken asylum
in Spain. 2208 feature interview about an exhibition in Santiago,
apparently the one in Chile, stemming from the ship Winnipeg which
transported refugees from France to Valparaíso in 1939 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.005+, Sept 13 at 2159, VOT IS at S9+20 direct but
extremely heavy rapid flutter, 2200 s/on as if it`s 1230 on 17620.
Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2221 into UTwente when measured
S9+55 without flutter, `Turkish Folk Tales` about the Woodcutter and
the Bear; 2227 music. 2231 ``always-by-your-side`` promo and `That`s
Why` repeat from last week still about lithium. 2241 TRTVOTVorld in 41
languages promo, music. 2246 ``always-by-your-side`` promo again,
music. 2251 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, s/off as if 17620, awry and
off by 2252* and if there were any IS it was very brief while I was
distracted. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 18163-USB, Sept 13 at 2205, W6A calling CQ Route 66 On the
Air, from Santa Mónica, says running 700 watts, lead station of
special event? Pronounces it ``Rout`` rhyming with doubt, so why isn`t
it spelt Roubt? After zero activity on 28, 24 and 21 MHz bands, first
phone signal I find. QRZ.com:

September 13 at 2034 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italian, 1322.995,
poor S8 into UTwente with ACI.

Also confirmed Friday September 13 at 2201 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 poor
direct. Better S9/+10 but noisy into Pardinho, Brasil SDR. No jamming
audible as many Cuban SW transmitters are broken.

Also confirmed Friday September 13 at 2242 the 2230 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 3975.000+, S8/9+5 and noisy into UTwente. Next:

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Fri Sept 13 from 2345, into
usual NH SDR: 6160 VP, no sigs on 3265, 5130 NOR 7490!! Something`s
wrong with this Kiwi. Switch to Maryland instead: there, 7490 -72 Hz =
7489.928 is VG S9+10/20 with FKB; 6160 -72 = 6159.928 is S5/S7 with
TOMBS; 5130 & 3265 agreeably OFF. So a rerun is likely. Listening to
7490-, after FKB wraps up, we hear a re-echo of his last words several
sex later. NO ID, no disclaimer, and rough start to playback of last
week`s AAAWWW wherein he starts saying ``beaming, not streaming``.
Never mind (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5010, Fri Sept 13 at 0650 UT, this WRMI-14 is off instead of
usual BS; but 9955 WRMI-3 is JBA S6/S8 at 0657, maybe deadair instead
of RFI Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5050, Fri Sept 13 at 0259, WRMI-4 with S9+30/40 of music so
presumably resumed `Legends` after previously only carriers on 5050 or
5051 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5800, Fri Sept 13 at 0259, WRMI with S9+30/40 of dead air.
Self-contradictory info on WRMI skedgrid: #10 transmitter 5800 shows
System D RAE Argentina at 0200-0300, System B Freedom Synergy Radio at
0300-0400. But RAE schedule shows nothing at this hour. System D shows
R. República at 0200-0300 UT Tue-Sat on 5800; System B shows Slovakia
in Spanish at 0230-0300, Prague in English at 0300-0330, on 9955!
Maybe FSR came up later after 0300 as usual on 5800, and previously
has been //9955 in yet another sked mismatch (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5935, Sept 13 at 0653-0654+, deadair from WWCR, longer than
typical pregnant pauses while DGS is lighting up a cigar (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 810, Sept 13 at 0637 UT, dead air atop a weaker music
station, presumably the normally dominant WHB Kansas City (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 880, Sept 13 at 0638 and 0710 UT, Spanish music in the
mix; 0708 think I heard ``Nuevo Mundo`` which would be TGJ Guatemala,
vs ESPN which would be WHSQ NYC ex-WCBS; and usual KRVN Nebraska. But
there are several US SS stations listed, most likely KJOZ Conroe TX.
New IRCA Mexican Log shows only one on 880 but it`s silent in
Chihuahua. TGJ was one of my early memorable DX catches (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9529.1 USB, Sept 13 at 0658, 2-way in Spanish, cambios,
whistling. Hardly any broadcast signals on 31mb to be bothered (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA [and non]. 17600, Sept 12 at 1503, JBA carrier direct,
presumed Ifrikya FM which was missing yesterday, but now during
almost-blackout K index 7, hardly any other signals on band except
17790 WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

I wonder about source and significance of that art:

``Glenn -- the mural was painted by Ginkym Production Services Inc as
a backdrop for TV series that had an episode filmed here in Hope. It
is on the side of the 'King Pin Lounge' on Wallace Street. The series
is called Untamed and I think it will air on National Geographic TV.
The mural is to honour our First Nations people of the Sto:lo nation.
Hope was also the backdrop for the film Rambo: First Blood starring
Sylvester Stallone forty years ago. He blew up a bridge and our Shell
gas station! They replaced them after shooting the film. Tony Pavick``

** CUBA. Almost all RHC SW frequencies have been missing at various
random chex, Sept 11; maybe 6000 remains. Rick Barton, Sun City AZ,
Sept 10, says spynumbers are also missing: ``We reported weeks back
the return of the Cuban numbers stations, which then promptly
disappeared. If any Utility DXers have heard anything, we'd love to
hear from them. I was still trying to sort out the new schedules when
they went back off. My last recorded log was on Aug. 3. And it was
even before that that they dropped the morning numbers broadcasts from
1600-1857 UTC.``

That`s not surprising, since numbers and RHC obviously have been
sharing same transmitters, now almost all broken. CRI relays maintain
on 9790, Rebelde on 5025 (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 2260)

The Other Side: ``The evidence of Cuba’s imminent collapse is
overwhelming --- CIBERCUBA September 9, 2024

It's September 2024, and Cuba is on the brink of a humanitarian
catastrophe. The collapse of the country's industries, infrastructure,
and public services is accelerating exponentially (problems are
multiplying rather than gradually increasing) due to 65 years of
accumulated deterioration under communist rule plus the regime's lack
of resources to fix the country's problems due to its disastrous
response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the loss of aid from Venezuela, and
the mass exodus of at least 11.4% of the country's population in 3
years (70% of them of working age). The island's energy, water,
transportation, and health infrastructure could collapse
simultaneously, as they are interconnected and a failure in one could
lead to failures in the others...``

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, Sept 12 at 0632, JBA S6/S7, sure sounds
like the tones of Josiah on Station YHWH, at a much later hour than
usual; and LSB tuning required because of utehash on the plus side.
EiBi shows only other 7475s: CNR1/Firedrake jamming at 23-24, and R.
Thailand English at 1800-1930. Aoki and HFCC Sept 11 show only
Thailand (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2260)

** OKLAHOMA. FCC change info for Sept 11: ``KOKJ-LP 95.1 Enid OK
initial calls for new station`` (via Mike Bugaj, WTFDA, FMDX-NA iog)
No sign of it on-air yet. Will overcome the radio war between KICT
Wichita and KQCV Bott OKC; and probably impossiblize the KOKC-1520
translator on 95.3 which really gets out, and difficultize what has
been a good ``open`` DX frequency 94.9. Would you believe that
searching FCC LMS on KOKJ hits instead DKOKJ-LP, Elk City TV deleted a
dekayear ago! FCC FM Query: zero results! We find it by searching on

UNIDENTIFIED. Noise level has abated enough and propagation improved
enough to uncover some JBA carriers on ND beacon frequencies, Sept 12
at 0637-0642 UT. These are my guesses based on previous reception with
no IDs axually hearable now, as in dxinfocentre.com or RNA, with
listed watt powers:

251, AM, Amarillo TX, 100;

UNIDENTIFIED. 12195, Sept 12 at 0623, S9+15/20, mystery open carrier,
much stronger than hardly anything within 25mb SWBC, just a few JBA
carriers, so I guess it be close by. What is it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD 
OF RADIO 2260)

UNSOLICITED TESTIMONIALS

``Been Missing. Hello everyone. It has been a long time since I have
been able to listen to short wave. I bought a SFR and boy, these
things are great. It's a SdrPlay DX. I was listening to a station out
of Florida and I heard the familiar Glenn Hauser World of Radio show.
In a instant it brought me back to listening to it in the 90's. Glenn,
I want to thank you for the great job you do. I've read all the
articles you put in Popular Communication [rather, Popular
Electronics, Monitoring Times]. If I get some money together I'll buy
you a pizza and a drink. You put your life into this and I just wanted
to say thank you for your efforts. I really enjoy your show and the
updates in print and radio. There's always something wrong with Radio
Cuba. Take care and happy listening`` (John Spicer, Sept 5)

John, Welcome back and thanks for your kind comments. 73, Glenn
