** ALGERIA. 17600, July 3 at 2204, poor S7/S9 direct sounds French,
presumed Ifrikya FM running past nominal 2200* -- maybe for hours as
last logged at 0054 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11950, July 3 at 0031, RHC in English, VG signal
into Brasília remote, but somewhat muffled audio, plus YL accent =
hard to understand; later OM cites Granma, official Commie newspaper
named for a boat named for someone`s grandmother; really. No signals
yet on real English frequency 6000, nor others where it often shows,
9700 and 15230. Hit this while tuning 25m for RNA Brasil local sig
which yesterday was wandering around band; but 6180 is on now. 11950,
of course, is never a scheduled English frequency for RHC, but so
what? The Other Side:

``Cuba: a country hijacked by politicians hijacked by the military
Who would have imagined that the seven trumpets of the Castroist
Apocalypse would not be heard sounding from an American aircraft
carrier, but rather from the MINFAR General Staff's band?
Rafaela Cruz, La Habana 01 Jul 2024 - 17:13 CEST...``
https://diariodecuba.com/cuba/1719846823_55756.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, July 3 at 0702, R. Rebelde with S9+30/40 of dead air in
Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, July 3 at 0705, RHC deadair again except for somewhine,
S9+15/25. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, July 3 at 1723, huge buzz with no program
audible, S9+5/10 into UTwente. Synch mode stepping up and down 5 kHz
lands on different spots: .840, .721, .082, .083, .841 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed July 3 at 2200, token English from SNR, S9+20/30,
preview feature to be about Andy Warhol exhibition commemorating his
visit to Spain - yet another totally aural report about a totally
visual medium. 2201.5 news starts with record tourism increase of
13.6% compared to a year ago, in quantity and gigaeuros spent (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.019, July 3 at 2159, VOT IS, S9+10/20 direct but
insufficient vs noise level. 2218 into UTwente when measured further
above frequency than usual, about the history of sunglasses starting
with XII century China, 2221 outro as `Unscripted Twists of Fate`, a
new feature? ``always-by-your-side`` promo. 2222 song. 2226 `The
Middle East and Turkey` on the religious basis for US unconditional
support of Israel, i.e. explaining Christian evangelism. 2238 `Sports
Panorama`. 2244 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2251 ``with-you-every-
hour`` promo. 2252 s/off ignoring SW: do they really have more 
listeners direct off satellite than SW?? Something`s awry at Ankara. 
2252.6 IS. 2256 pause and restart IS with German IDs until 2258* 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO on IRRS changes: ``Hi Glen[n], Hope
you're doing well. We have a new program starting next Sunday. Because
of this update, we'll need to adjust some of your repeat times on our
stations. Here’s the new schedule for WOR on IRRS, effective July 7,
2024: [gh changed CET to UT:]

- SAT 23:30 UT streaming on IRN
- SUN 19:00 UT on 1323 kHz + streaming on IRN
- TUE 20:00 UT on 1323 kHz + streaming on IRN
- FRI 20:30 UT on 1323 kHz + streaming on IRN

You can tune in to IRN (Internet Radio NEXUS) at:
https://nexus.org/irn-player
or
https://nexus.org/mp3

Thanks for understanding, and we hope you enjoy the new lineup. Take
care and best 73s, Alfredo -- Alfredo E. Cotroneo, CEO, NEXUS-Int'l
Broadcasting Association``

So the return to one airing on SW has been short-lived: was Sunday
0930 UT on 9510. The Fri 2030 UT should continue to present the first
airing of each WOR, not the last. That, Sat and and Sun are unchanged,
but Tuesday is new.

WORLD OF RADIO 2249 monitoring: missed checking Tuesday July 2 at 2330
on WRMI 9395 and SW Radio, Germany, 3975. Anyone hear them?

Confirmed Wednesday July 3 at 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001
S9+15/20 and slightly behind, 3975.004 S9+10/15 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday July 3 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -73 Hz =
7389.927, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 9955, Wed July 3 at 0648, once again tonight, this
WRMI is still on air contrary to websked - not RFI in Spanish as
previously heard, but music only, fill? First, sort of ``island``
music, then ``HOA``. 0700 no ID break, but still immediately into
Polish Radio External Service, via WRN, in English. Also light pulse
jamming audible direct. The Cuban commies have no love lost for
countries which overthrew the yoke of Soviet oppression. Also too
close for comfort to 9960 VANUATU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

5010 WRMI at 0700 July 3 is also still on air as uncheduled. Next
check at 1508, 9955 is still on air JBA, yet another anomaly (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, Wed July 3 at 0703, WWCR-4 is on with gospel music,
huge dirty signal of S9+45/50. Is it TOMBS? Not // 5850 WRMI. Sked
updated as of July 1, still claims 5890 is OFF M-F at 05-12, while
nothing but TOMBS on weekends. Of course this also activates the
leapfrog mixing product on 5980 whenever both 5890 and 5935 are on the
air, another 45 kHz beyond. But we don`t hear any reverse on 5845
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. DXMAP shows Es paths between OK and California, so I go
hunting on caradio, July 3 at 1958 UT. Instead, tropo boosts are up
from Tulsa, Wichita areas while OKC signals are diminished, and I
identify no Es.

100.7 at 1958, ``101 Country, KPNC Ponca City`` OK, normally inaudible
vs local 100.9.

107.9 at 1959, ``U.S. 107.9, ``Winfield, Wichita`` and somewhere
else:
KWLS 107.9 WINFIELD KS 50.0 kW 150.0 m 37-15-46 96-53-42 4B48 Big D &
Bubba Mornings-KSN News 5 6 & 10-kwlsradio.com COUNTRY US 107.9 - REAL
AMERICAN COUNTRY

93.5 at 2035, ``Power 93.5, Wichita``, hip-hop. This a surprise as the
KS station I normally hear fringily is the much further KKDT. Andover
is just NE of Wichita, with much LESS power, and tower, slogan a Big
Lie:
KDGS 93.5 ANDOVER KS 15.0 kW 114.0 m 37-42-47 97-14-51 189A
Artist/Song on Power 93 Adult Hits RHYTHMIC CHR POWER 93.5
KKDT 93.5 BURDETT KS 95.0 kW 304.8 m 38-36-32 99-42-12 COUNTRY MY
COUNTRY 93.5

93.3 circa 2040, 100 kW OKC station KJKE Newcastle ``Jake FM`` with
constant CCI, at 2049 maybe mentions Kansas, in weather? But the only
KS on 93.3 are two translators in far Manhattan and Liberal. And the
only other OKies are 7 translators or LP. What could this be? Seems
too  constant and weak to be Es.

92.7 at 2049, ``The Pulse,`` Kansas lottery. Must be this, but slogan
change, or just a fleeting program reference?
KWME 92.7 WELLINGTON KS 14.0 kW 130.0 m 37-20-08 97-27-53 4B54 KWME
Oldies CLASSIC HITS 92.7 THE RIVER (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRIA. 11870, July 2 at 0346, language?, music bit smax of
Christianism, S9/+10 one of best signals on band. AWR Persian
scheduled via Moosbrunn. I wonder what % of power goes off the back
USward (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, July 2 at 0331, no signal from R. Progreso; has it been
off all evening, sked 0030-0400? Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba. 5025, R. Rebelde, however, is on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, July 2 at 0338, S9+30 Spanish music, so RHC in which
language? 0342 English announcement undermodulated and distorted but
music sounded OK. Something`s always wrong at RHC. 6000 not on earlier
but now dead air as well as on 12000 at 0347. 15230 JBA carrier, maybe
also still English like at 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, July 2 at 0336, JBA in S9+10/20 high noise
level, presumed Station YHWH as frequently reported around this time
when I am rarely monitoring (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 341 kHz MCW, July 2 at 2213, Woodring AP Enid beacon EI
is JBA vs noise level; had not been able to detect it for some weeks.
Now absolutely no others penetrating, once regular (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.58 & 27224.9, July 2 at 0350, both S9+10 open
carriers, obviously the local Enid pirate often relaying 105.5 FM
translator, but no modulation right now. Same at 1851 recheck (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 11785.010, July 2 at *2200.4, VOT cuts on late
for English, off and back on, 2201 JIP olds already. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler. S9/+10 direct, would be sufficient if not
for my high line noise level. 2226 tune-in via UTwente when measured,
S9+35/45 plenty with commentary about China; 2232
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music; 2238 `Turkey`s Geomarked
Products`, some dish with goat or lamb meat; 2240 finished already,
``ABYS`` already again; 2241 song; 2245 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo;
2246 song; 2250 ``ABYS`` for at least third time this hour, and song:
finally a recognizable tune! ``Quizás3``, with Turkish lyrix,
``Dan-dan3``. 2253 s/off ignoring SW: something`s always awry at
Ankara. 2253.7 IS; 2256 restart IS with German IDs; 2300 timesignal
close to exact by my watch so must have been early with Internet
delay, s/on for satellite and SW but not at this hour, Alten starting
with northern Syria, which Turkey apparently considers it should
control. Still going past 2324. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler. BTW, Brasil missing from 11780; yesterday Paul Walker found
them way off frequency, 11974.666. I have something unID yet circa
11975 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13563+, July 2 at 0348, HIFER beacon AN is JBA at fadeup vs
high noise level. First one heard in many weeks on the ISM band
despite daily tunebys. LWCA list shows 13562.9~ for AN in Somerton AZ,
but this was on the plus side of 13563. Somerton is even further SW
than Yuma, right on the border (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2249 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday July 2 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+10/20 direct = HSNL.

NOT confirmed Tuesday July 2 at 1307 and later rechecks for the 1300
airing, because 9955 is now OFF the air! It had been running past
0600, instead of weekends only, as in separate report. Yet, 9395 &
9455 are still going strong at 1307. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
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.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, July 2 at 0639, WRMI-3 is ON, surprisingly, on a
Tuesday rather than Sat & Sun only this late; in Spanish S9/+20, soon
ID as ``Noticias de América, en RFI``, i.e. France relay; a July 1
sked change? What does grid show now? Frequency/transmitter grid shows
nothing but TOMBS daily 0400-1100. System B sked shows 0400-1000
``Internet only except weekends 9955``, with the 06-07 program block
unspecific World Radio Network daily, with RFI Spanish supposedly at
05-06! The System E TOMBS sked, however shows 9955 aste*risked at
05-10 daily as weekends only. It seems to be impossible for them ever
to get all this coordinated and not self-contradictory. So the
question remains, was 9955 on past 06 this Tuesday just an error?
Furthermore, by 13 UT when WOR should have aired, it was OFF! 9955
past 0600 is bad news for VANUATU, q.v., 9960. Recheck at 2205, 9955
is back on undermodulated S9+10; nominal restart at 2200. Something`s
odd at Okee.

5010 WRMI is also on late contrary to *sked, Tue July 2 at 0651 with
TOMBS // much stronger 5850 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, July 2 at 0337, no signal from WRNO. When active
should be on at least 0100-0400, right? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, July 2 at 0645, RV is on, but some splash
from 9955 WRMI running late, hope not a permanent nightly extension
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10048 USB, July 2 at 0638, selcall tones, ATC presumably
San Francisco remote-controlling transmitter in Hawaii or Alaska,
advising ``secondary`` frequency at 6673 rather than 6676 as copied
last time. Craft contacted not audible. Only 6673 item in EiBi is
00-24 San Francisco Radio CEP covering eastern Oceania from site dx,
which means Dixon, California, but what means CEP? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
