** CHILE. 28473 USB, May 3 at 2219, CA3VAK calling CQDX in English,
working USA. QRZ.com:
``CA3VAK Chile flag Chile, Victor M. Aranguiz M., Santiago, Chile``.
Not unusual for 12, 11 and 10m beacon band to seem dead but Chilean
phones make it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHILE. 28436 USB, May 3 at 2220, CE4KM calling CQ DX in English.
QRZ.com: ``CE4KM Chile flag Chile, César Orellana Lopez, CALLE DUAO

** CUBA. 6000, May 4 at 0021, S9+20/25 of dead air from RHC in
English, as usual. Something`s always wrong at RHC. 5990, May 4 at
0021, S9+15/20 of JBM talk with whine, presumably CRI relay.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, May 3 at 2215 direct, and at 2236 into UTwente, NO
signal from R. Cairo`s 2115+ sesquihour in English. I have given up
checking for it much, but I suspect has been totally off the air.
Latest reports I easily find were from early February. Has anyone
heard *any* R. Cairo broadcast, since when? They are all scheduled on
a 9 MHz band frequency:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, May 3 at 0630, JJBBA carrier. Almost every
night I check for signs of R. Kiribati reactivated, which used to be
regularly detectable, since it`s on a `clear` split and very far east,
same longitude as Hawai`i. This is so weak that I am far from sure
it`s not a spoiler birdie (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 ISB, May 4 at 0020, pirate music, S9+5. Bet
it`s Wolverine Radio; yes:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,144450.0.html
Many of these reporters list every song played by a pirate - I guess
they have great reception unlike me, have tremendous musical
knowledge, or Shazaam to the max. I`m glad not to bother (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.004-, May 3 at 2214, VOT English not off the air,
S9/+10 direct but not enough vs noise level. At 2235 into UTwente when
measured, S9+15/25, mostly music until 2254 s/off as if it were 1230
on 17620, something`s always awry at Ankara, 2255 IS first notes only
twice and off* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2293 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 3 at 1454 the 1430 on SW Radio, Germany, 6160.001-, S9+5 into
UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday May 3 at 1600 on WRN North America stream.

Also confirmed Saturday May 3 at 1733 the 1730 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.000+, S9+10 into UTwente but ACI from 6164/6165; also 3975.001+,
S8/S9, both with storm crashes from N France, central Germany.

Can`t confirm the Sat May 3 at 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, because
nearby SDR is still gone and none of the others closest in IA, IL, MO,
TN, can get it in daytime. Should this continue to  be the case, would
appreciate monitors in St Louis area checking.

Confirmed Saturday May 3 after 1930 on WRN North America stream.

Confirmed Saturday May 3 after 2000 on WRN Europe stream.

Also confirmed Saturday May 3 at 2230 on WRMI 15770, S9+ into Maryland

** U S A. May 3 at 1520, near blackout without even JBA carriers on

9395, 9930, 9955, 9980, 12050, 12160, 13745, 15770, 17790. WWV at 15

** U S A [and non]. 9330, May 3 at 0616, no signal from WLCR on WBCQ.
Propagation? 9395 WRMI is S9. 9330 also inaudible circa 1525. Off?
Back at 0616, other sigs on 31m: 9410, 9610 DRM, 9665, 9955, 9960. At
2216 May 3, 9330 is definitely off, zero signal direct. Ditto at 0016
May 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9930, Sat May 3 at 2216, WTWW is off, no TOMBS, despite
having been on earlier than usual at 1520 check, maybe due to Sabbath?
But on 9980 WWCR so 9930 hardly necessary. By 2318, 9930 is back on;
still no 9475 when WOR was scheduled months ago (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 15770, Sat May 3 at 2027, WRMI `Wavescan` outro as scheduled
at 2000 on System H, but 2030 music fill instead of `Viva Miami`, then
2045 `I Love Italy`. At 2222 in Spanish seems to be language lesson
with repeated phases about ``mi madre``, but no Chinese, from R.
Taiwán Internacional relay (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 28444 USB, May 3 at 2221, YV5SSB calling QRZ, CQDX.

``world champion`` contester (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9540, May 3 at 1525, some JBA talk. This is the only
signal audible on any band 7-22 MHz except US stations, in near
blackout. EiBi shows RTI, SOH and CNR1 jamming all could be active at
this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
