BRAZIL   Now at 06.11 UT on Apr 13 
9664.514 kHz - against WWV Colorado,

heard in Cape Canaveral FL SDR unit S=5 or -96dBm.
BRAZIL. 9664.515, April 12 at 0610, RVM is S4-S7 of music, varied 
slightly upward but obviously now on the plus side of the halfway spot 
in BFO stepping 9664/9665 back and forth on the R-75. Last night while 
hunting for Cairo, had it on .511; no spurs noted now like on April 7

-8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

CUBA  At 02.24 UT on Apr 13, 
NOTHING ON AIR of R Progreso 4765 kHz only CODAR scratch,
5025 kHz powerful S=9+20dB -53dBm powerhouse as usual, 


but something wrong at Bauta on
5040 kHz, only tiny signal of S=4-5 -97dBm signal traced,
only exciter on air,
transmitter power amplifier final stage of 5040 kHz is wrong.

CUBA. 4765, April 12 at 0046, R. Progreso is still AWOL, while 5025 
Rebelde is nominal. The third night in a row. Ditto at 0331 check 
April 13, fourth night. Transmitter totally broken? Something`s always 
wrong at RadioCuba. That leaves weak CODAR swooshes, and maybe a 
chance at Tajikistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1977, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)
CUBA. 5040, April 12 at 0047, this RHC is off; 0050 back on with S9 
carrier and whine, JBM on and off and on and off, in French or Kriyol. 
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** BRAZIL. 9664.515, April 12 at 0610, RVM is S4-S7 of music, varied
slightly upward but obviously now on the plus side of the halfway spot
in BFO stepping 9664/9665 back and forth on the R-75. Last night while
hunting for Cairo, had it on .511; no spurs noted now like on April 7
-8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11840, April 11 at 2101, JBA RHC carrier, aside new frequency
11850 which is S9+20 but undermodulated. By 2252, there is enough
audio on 11840 to match it to 11850 --- and *also* on 11860 just
barely enough to hear thru the jamming overrun against RM. By 2334,
both 11840 & 11860 have risen to S4-S7, the latter over the jamming
level which has declined further at least by comparison, and still of
course all // modulation to 11850.

Therefore I am positive that 11840 & 11860 are in fact plus/minus 10
kHz spurs out of 11850, just like 11830 & 11850 were when 11840 was
the fundamental halfway in between, with similar relative signal
disparities. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

Also, I do not see 11840 on any of the new RHC schedule versions,
despite what Wolfie had concluded April 10: ``and 10 kHz down [from
11850] also fundamental Bauta tx unit {not spur signal} as 2100-0400
11840 BAU 100 160 SoAm Spanish Buenos Aires tx #5 sometimes irregular
on air, ex13740 kHz previously, wb`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
1977, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13650, April 11 at 2336, CRI is S9+30 but suptorted also with
annoying music in background, relay to Brasil but in Luso accent.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 4765, April 12 at 0046, R. Progreso is still AWOL, while 5025
Rebelde is nominal. The third night in a row. Ditto at 0331 check
April 13, fourth night. Transmitter totally broken? Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba. That leaves weak CODAR swooshes, and maybe a
chance at Tajikistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1977, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5040, April 12 at 0047, this RHC is off; 0050 back on with S9
carrier and whine, JBM on and off and on and off, in French or Kriyol.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, April 12 at 0048, RHC is S6-S* of dead air or JBM;
other English frequency 6000 is S9/S9+10 but suptorted JBM.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6165, April 12 at 0600, RHC English is S9+20 of dead air;
6000 is off; leaving 6060 & 6100 & 5040 still modulating in English.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 12200, April 12 at 0614, RHC English at S6 about = to band
noise level; second harmonic of 6100, a new one here. Otherwise you
might not know the MUF is this high in the nightmiddle. Something`s
always wrong at RHC. Will have to add it to the frequency list for
DXers Unlimited, right, Arnie? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 7380, April 12 at 2201, RHC dead air; 2203 finally opening in
French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT [non]. 9720, April 11 at 2329 past 2330, JBA carrier,
probably IBB Mandarin via Kuwait at 23-24, rather than R. Cairo as
also registered in A-19 HFCC for Portuguese to S America at 2215-2330.
Then 2330-2445 Arabic on 9660, 0045-0200 Spanish on 9665. I hear no
trace of these either before and after 0045, and believe that Cairo`s
S American service continues to be imaginary. 9665 of course is
occupied by BRAZIL, measured at 9664.511, yes now slightly less than a
semi-kHz off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1977, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS. 11805, April 12 at 1355, S9-S7 in
Myanmarianese, 1400 mentions Washington DC. Registered as TINIAN at
1230-1430 for IBB, i.e. R. Free Asia during this span, so maybe a
transmitter there be back in service. Had not noticed this frequency
before. BTW, Palau takes it over at 1430 weekends (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11819.987, April 12 at 2210, SBC is no longer off-
frequency to the plus side, Qur`aning until stops abruptly at 2214,
but dead air carrier stays on past 2221; nominal sked is until 2257*
per NDXC/Aoki, 2300 per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 11 at 2247, no signal from VOT English to N
America, which if it ever started after 2200, should not have signed
off quite yet. April 12 at 2202, however, JBA talk presumably VOT, vs
stray Cuban pulse jamming if not RTTY (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1976 monitoring: confirmed UT

** U S A. 5800, April 12 at 0559, WRMI modulating Oldies at S9+10 vs
storm noise, and // 9395, both across ToH with no ID; and not // 5950
which is presumably SMTV now. 5800, still not on the WRMI skedgrid,
may have bumped up testing power but soon faded to way weaker. Which
transmitter is it? The only one with 24 hour blanks on the websked is
#4 as if 9455, at 160 degrees; but HFCC reg for 5800 is 181 degrees,
which is currently used by 5010 on its limited sked (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** CUBA. 7380, April 10 at 2200, new frequency for African service,
RHC opening in French, S9/+20. 2250 check still in Kriyol instead of
Portuguese from 2230; 2310 check in English, so that`s now at 23-24 on
7380 // 5040. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15370, April 10 at 1926, RHC OC prior to 1930 broadcast, but
with spurious hash peaks approx. plus/minus 3 kHz, even with no
modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 4765, April 11 at 0321, NO signal from R. Progreso, just some
CODAR swishing. Richard Langley, NB, agrees, who first noted RP absent
the night before during its entire 0030-0400 span. 5025 Rebelde is
still on and nominal. What`s with RP? Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13739.239, April 11 at 1327, RHC way off-frequency from
13740. As soon as I found new 13740 ex-13780 on April 7, I figured
same transmitter would eventually also get knocked off-frequency about
0.76 kHz below, and now it has been! Last measured March 25 on
13779.24. Considerably weaker than // 13700. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTEING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15230, April 11 at 1411, RHC is S9+10 but just barely
modulated; // 15140 better but still undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 9435 // 11710, April 11 at 1317, VOK with
insufferable propaganda in stilted English accompanied by self-jamming
noise bleeding from adjacent transmitters. Almost identical signals,
S9+10 and S9 respectively. Have not heard these in some time, and
suspect one or both transmitters have been down; 13-14 is the prime
broadcast for North America, with a repeat on same at 15-16.

At least NK has the right idea about scheduling, while SK`s KBS World
Radio`s so-called N American service in English also at 13-14 UT
remains on 15575, inaudible almost yearound. At 1321 check I can
almost imagine a JBA carrier on 15575! If KBS put the same transmitter
on a clear 9 or 11 MHz frequency, it could be heard. In fact, 13-14
English is on // 9570, but 205 degrees and totally blocked here by
Habana relaying China (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1600, April 10 at 1933 UT, searching for some rare music
on the AM band, ``1600, The Cush, and 1600kush.com``, i.e. KUSH in oil
terminal Cushing OK, east of Stillwater. Cush is pronounced like in
cushion; then C&W or nostalgia, or ``Americana``.

[and non] This reminds me to enumerate the few stations around here on
daytime/groundwave listenable primarily with music, not including
foreign language, gospel huxters: 780 KSPI, 860 KKOW, 900 KSGL (split
with gospel huxters mornings), 1070v KFTI, 1280 KSOK, 1600 KUSH.
Everything else is talk or sportstalk (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Apr 10 at 2201, REE thrice-weekly English already
amid interview with an author instead of a musician! About Nazi
concentration camps; OK, Justin, but how about some material
explicitly about SPAIN??? Even news? Interviewing some foreigner you
can catch visiting Madrid is a cop-out (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** THAILAND. 9390, April 11 at 1316, English announcement introducing
Mandarin, S8-S4 with flutter. R. Thailand is back here for all
languages 1200-1430, beam changes between each from Udorn, including
the two English aimed 132 degrees at 1230-1300 & 1400-1430. Too bad
the English is not on 30 degrees USward like Mandarin now.

Other HSK9 English: 0000-0100 & 0200-0230 15590 to North America but
inaudible here until maybe midsummer?; 0530-0600 17640; 1900-2000 &
2030-2045 9920 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 10 at 2200, NO signal from VOT English to North
America, no RTTY either. Still nothing at 2209, but did not get around
to checking later in hour whether it ever came up. TRT'de her zaman
yanlÄÅ olan bir Åeyler var.

In A-19 schedule, following frequencies are on earlier, probably one
of them prolonged, failing to QSY to 9830:
9460, 1600-2100 Turkish (someone already noted it on past 2100)
9620, 2030-2130 English
9635, 1930-2030 French
11615, 1930-2030 French
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1976 monitoring: NOT confirmed
Wednesday April 10 at 2100 on WRMI 9955 --- off the air past 2108+, as
I sometimes have to remark ``such are the risks of being the first
program in a transmission block`` (meanwhile 9395 WRMI is OK with RAE
Italian). However, WOR confirmed on WRMI webcast, and by recheck 2127,
9955 is on at S9-S6. Simultaneous 7490.17v WBCQ with WOR from 2100 is
JBA even with ECSS at 2105, a situation which is only going to worsen
as summer oncomes; also confirmed on webcast.

NOT confirmed, UT Thursday April 11 at 0000 on WRMI 7730, replaced by
Bible reading in Spanish. This is the fourth former WOR airing on WRMI
which has been canceled in the past 3 days! Quite a shakeup.

Whew, still confirmed UT Thursday April 11 at 0100 on WRMI 7780,
S9/S9+10. Next:
0930 UT Friday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW
0130 UT Saturday WRMI 7780 [new; or 1977?]

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7505v, April 11 at 0601, NO signal again tonight from WRNO
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15115-15120-15125, April 11 at 1412, cannot detect any
hybrid DRM from WINB; by 1431 now I can hear some weak tones on the
lower half, while any DRM noise on the upper half is indistinguishable
from band noise level. Maybe this works better toward Europe? 19m
propagation to here is pitiful except from Cuba. Presumably during
Unique Radio, Australia, program as now scheduled Wed/Thu/Fri 14-15
