** OKLAHOMA. 1580, KOKB Blackwell once again lost modulation, just open carrier July 28 at 2006 UT. No understations audible this time, only a sesquihour after local mean noon (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15385.2, KJES is indeed this far off-frequency as previously reported by Mark Taylor as unID on July 24 at 1914. Heard July 28 at 1937 registering S9+20 but quite undermodulated so I need to turn the volume almost up full for normal listening level. Hymn sung by OM in Spanish with gringo accent (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9335, new frequency for Brother Scare: what`s he doing here? Wednesday July 28 at 1946 with usual depressing pessimism, to say the least. Runs about 10 seconds ahead of himself on WWRB 9385. 9335 is fairly steady at S9+15, poor in daytime noise level, but stronger than adjacent WBCQ 9330-CUSB with non-BS, presumed still GFRN.

A few minutes earlier I had noticed WINB missing from 13570, thought maybe due to poor propagation. It`s also missing from 9265, which normally carries BS thru midday only on Sabbathdays instead of 13570 otherdays. Then I check the 9335 carrier with BFO --- yes, it is slightly unstable, just like WINB on its known frequencies.

Keep listening and at 1958:30, 9335 cuts away from BS for WINB ID, address but no frequency mentioned, off at 1959*. I then tune one radio to 9265 and another to 13570 to cover where it may show up next. Yes: *2000:10 carrier on 13570, 2000:50 sign-on, this time giving 13570, address, and phone 717-244-5360. 2101:40 into Voice of the Spirit.

I am tempted to call them and ask what`s with 9335, but instead I check the website later. http://www.winb.com --- anything about this? Of course not! Still shows 9265/13570/9265. The program schedule still dated March 14 as of the start of EDT, still shows 5 instead of 4-hour difference from UT. Still shows Tony Alamo at 11 am-noon and 2-4 pm weekdays, which I assume means 15-16 and 18-20 UT instead of 16-17 and 19-21 as shown.

So WINB is not only on a brand-new unannounced, unlisted frequency, but also with a change in programming, finally rid of that monster sex predator a full year after his convixion. Further check needed at 1500 to be sure. I guess 9335 is for Brother Scare, who wants to be on 9 MHz instead of 13, since 9 MHz works on Saturdays.

FCC/HFCC registrations still include long-inactive WMLK on 9265 in the daytime except on Saturdays when WINB has it for BS. So in order to use 9 MHz in the day other than on a Saturday, apparently had to find another frequency, but only 5 kHz from another US station, WBCQ?!

Of course, there is no sign that WMLK is being resurrected. It was silent for years preceding the death of Elder Jacob O. Meyer, and it`s even less likely now to come back. Might as well give up the wooden frequencies for it in the registrations.

The WMLK website is still up, http://www.wmlkradio.net/ with all the antenna update info but apparently nothing this year, since EJOM died April 9, 2010, per the obit. They claim to be streaming 24 hours, but make lots of excuses if you don`t hear it, and I don`t, altho the embedded player launches and the clock is running.

How about the Overcomer Ministry? Website is no longer as fancy and we finally find the SW schedule page under Downloads.
ftp://www.overcomerministry.org/RadioSchedule/Short%20Wave%20Radio.html
It`s no more accurate than before, but it does reveal a few things:

BS is indeed on WINB instead of Alamo, M-F at 2-4 pm on ``13570``, but look at the last entry. The same hours, plus M-F 11 am-noon, on ``9355``, not attributed to any station. Besides that, the frequency is wrong, obviously meant to be 9335 where I heard it, definitely IDed as WINB. After WBCQ and WWRB times, the rest of the list, sic:

WINB 9265 8Am-11Am Mon-Fri
WINB 9265 9:30Am-4:30Pm Sat
WINB 9265 5Pm-7Pm Mon-Fri
WINB 13570 2Pm-4Pm Mon-Fri
6110 UK 10Am-12Pm
13810 Europe 10-11Am
6155 UK 1900 - 2000 UTC
7425 Israel 1900 - 2000 UTC
9895 Europe 1900 - UTC
9355 11Am-12&2Pm-4Pm

The `9355` entry neatly covers all the times previously scheduled for Alamo, so it looks like WINB has cleaned up its act by one step. It`s helpful to know that you can keep broadcasting for a full year on WINB after being convicted, leading to a sentence of 175 years.

Or, another possibility is that WINB is really supposed to be on 9355 but they got it wrong: 9355 has IBB Philippines and Saipan on it, but possibly sharable in NAm daytime, and not adjacent to other domestic US stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. Not only is RA on 9560, 9580 and 9590, with Late Night Live ending segment about excessive US support of Israel, right or wrong, July 26 at 1235 but also three seconds later on 9965, fair signal, which is due west from PALAU at 11-13; and furthermore // 9580 on 11945, fair at 1239 which is 329 degrees from Shepparton at 07-13 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake July 26:
10500, good at 1236; none found lower
15140, fair at 1242 // 10500; none found higher

I retuned at 1320 and found them both going, but just in time to hear 15140 cut modulation and a couple seconds later cut carrier at 1320:18*. Then 10500 did the same thing at 1320:35*. No doubt from same transmitter site and it took 17 seconds for operator to get from one unit to the next. A rather strange time to close, but monitoring HQ must have decided that #1 enemy Sound of Hope had gone off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 11775, July 26 at 0527 Arabic with strange accent, then soft music, vs residual DentroCuban jamming against R. Martí which never is on 11775 at this hour. 0535 into Chinese music, a clue that it`s really CRI relay as scheduled via ALBANIA, 240 degrees at 05-07 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 12240, July 26 (yay!) at 0522, RHC in Spanish, poor, out and in with peaks to S9+ on this second harmonic of 6120, and matching its rough lo-fi modulation compared to other RHC channels.

12120, correlating with pipeline from Cuba even bringing in weak RHC harmonic on 12240, were cut numbers in A2, spy transmitter, July 26 (yay!) at 0524, mixed with RTTY.

In honor of el 26 de julio, I revive my parody slogan not repeated for some months: ``Cuba --- territorio esclavo en América --- Patria o Suerte, ¡Pensaremos!`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. Checking 9690 for AIR GOS, July 26: tune in at 1328 to hear pop music in some Asian language, from something else? Could that really be NIGERIA, which BTW have not heard in weeks on 15120 or 7255? Apparently not: at 1329 AIR hum begins to be audible and with no transmission break opens GOS in English at 1330. AIR had been playing that off-topic music instead of the AIR IS prior to GOS.

1330:35 newscast starts; 1344 ending commentary, program summary including 1430 mailbag Faithfully Yours, 1345 into classical music with vocal. 9690 was fair, and also audible on poor // 13710, not 11620. At 1344 I also find it strange that AIR domestic services on 9425 and 9870 are not audible. All three 31m channels are via Bengaluru, but on different headings. While 9690 is toward SE Asia, the others are northerly which ought to favor US more (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NEW ZEALAND. 6170, RNZI came on a few sex before 1300 UT Monday July 26 with Bell Bird, timesignal and news. Poor signal with a sesquihour of sunshine on this end of the path, and worse for Mailbox, checked at 1341 as after music break, Myra Oh was welcoming Adrian Sainsbury back from another big trip, an 8-week holiday to Europe bypassing the troubles in Bangkok, but including a Mediterranean cruise. As usual I have to go back and listen to it later online for perfect reception:
http://www.rnzi.com/audio/mailbox.mp3
including Part II of David Ricquish`s feature on history of broadcasting in PNG.

Adrian says he had planned to retire in January, but will be staying on a while longer at RNZI. Looks like a youngfellow, far from retirement age at http://www.rnzi.com/images/Adrain%20in%20Tonga.jpg

And also previous show with Part I of Ricquish`s PNG feature:
http://www.rnzi.com/audio/mailbox2.mp3
As of July 26, the link for this at
http://www.rnzi.com/pages/audio.php
is dated June 13 --- is that correct? What happened to the two intervening fortnightly shows? Apparently into black hole, as at the end of the older mailbox2 file Myra did say ``back in two weeks with DX report from Bryan Clark``, but the other, new file has Ricquish again, not Clark (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1580, KOKB Blackwell still open carrier Monday July 26 at 1305 UT, so I listen to the undersignals, mixture of several, none in Spanish, producing multiple subaudible heterodynes. Mostly talk tho heard a bit of C&W music too; sportstalk dominated at 1311, not // ESPN KCRC 1390. 1315 with phone number 419-something; 1316 ad with area code 303 heard twice, i.e. KKKK in Colorado. At 1338 promo mentioned Fox Sports Radio, but not // KOKP 1020, so there is definitely some other station with FS on 1580 now. Next check 1357, KOKB had come to life with overmodulation outblotting the rest (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN [non]. 15170, REE, Monday July 26 at 1242 expected to hear token news in Catalan, but music fill instead, // 5970. Wonder if COSTA RICA lost feed from Spain, but 17595 not audible yet to compare. However, at 1246 Galician was on, so the lost feed was from Barcelona to Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Re my previous report of KPBI-DT 34 in Eureka Springs AR, it`s not new at all, despite FCC TV Query showing it only as a CP. So much for relying on official FCC info. Fritze H Prentice Jr in Star City AR says,

``Glenn, KPBI-DT *34* Eureka Springs AR (PSIP and actual) has been on the air for nearly a year. It went silent June 12, 2009 because it had to flash cut but did not have its DTV facility ready.

KPBI 34 Eureka Springs AR went silent on June 12, 2009 (as an analog)
and reactivated as a digital station (KPBI had no companion // DTV
channel) in early August 2009. I logged KPBI 34 as a DTV on August 25, 2009. I blogged about this via DFLCA (with a screenshot)
http://tvdxseark.blogspot.com/2009/08/another-new-dtv-log-for-augustkpbi-dt.html

Interesting, although the COL for KPBI is Eureka Springs, Eureka Springs is actually in the Springfield MO TV market. Neither KNWA, nor KPBI were carried on COX cable in ES as of last November. KPBI was previously a MyNetwork TV affiliate for NW Arkansas but that service has gone over to a subchannel of KFSM-DT 18 ("5-2").

I hope this clears things up, Glenn, that was a fantastic catch from Enid (OK) --- Fritze H Prentice Jr, KC5KBV, Star City, AR`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
