** CUBA. 9490, Oct 9 at 0618, residual pulse jamming against nothing, long after R. República via RMI vis France is off; but this time accompanied by strings of two alternating tones between brief pauses. Their CW-like carriers zero in on 9490.0 and 9490.4 -- tones on jam frequencies happen occasionally in different configurations; jamops playing around, relieving boredom? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 9 circa 2130, NO signal from R. Cairo direct nor via UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11525, Oct 9 at 0648, JBA carrier; 11510, Oct 9 at 1535, JBA signal; both presumed current jumparounds in the Kurdo/Turco radio war (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 9 at 1526 UT, JB detectable SW, 25 watt NDB at Stillwater, vs line noise level of S9. Had not been able to hear it for many weeks, if really on air all the time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7570, Oct 9 at 0635, S9+25/35 of dead air from TOMBS via WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Oct 9 at 2200, VG S9/+20 into Maryland SDR, token English from SNR by the usual Amy Egan & Marilýn Quintana, but quick IDs come from unfamiliar voices they must have recruited for that purpose of variety. Feature subject after news to be marking World Mental Health Day --- what? Everyone should know it`s Columbus Day [non], as Oct 12 would be inconvenient on a Thursday. Or the Day of the Race as celebrated? in Latin America if not Spain. Interview emphasizes caring for elderlies` M.H. 2226 wrapup, they invite us to listen again but never admit English is tokenly only on M/W/F, so anyone tuning in on T/T is in for frustration, disappointment (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.008+, Oct 9 at *2156.7 carrier on and soon IS and English ID loop from VOT, S9+47 into UTwente, and soon drift up to .009+. 2200 timesignal closely matches SPAIN via different remote. Lotsa news, delaying `Review of the Turkish Press` until 2220, spoken by badax so only some words understandable; and longer than usual until 2224 music; 2228 `New Day/New Choices` about listening to Mozart temporarily improves IQ scores. 2232 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2257 recheck: off already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. My high line noise level has abated only slightly on LW/MW, and/or conditions have improved only slightly, allowing me to detect again some of my `regular` MCW ND beacons: 293 kHz, Oct 9 at 0726, FBY, Fairbury NE, 25 watts 326 kHz, Oct 9 at 0730, MA, Midland TX, 400 watts 329 kHz, Oct 9 at 0731, PMV, Plattsmouth NE, 25 watts See also OKLAHOMA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed Sunday October 8 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/12 into nearby Noale SDR; with lite CCI singing, sorta Qur`anish, from what? if Smooth Radio, England begone? mwlist: IRIB Radio Tabriz 1820-2020 azeri -- and with 50 kW per WRTH 2023. Seems off by 2022 and then no signal into Kuwait SDR. So our other airing on 1323, Friday from 2030 would be after Iran closes. There could still be a 30-watter on 1323 from UK. Not confirmed UT Monday October 9 at 0030 on WRMI 7780: another airing bites the dust without notice:, something musical instead, vs noise blast first 14 seconds. Still showing WOR on WRMI System D sked. Confirmed UT Monday October 9 from 0300.6 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, S8/9+5 into NH SDR with frozen wideband mode so there is ACI from 6165 Turkey, timesignal already out of the way long before 0300:00. Next: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW; to be confirmed] 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [was planned from late Sept] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB 1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2210] 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week for generous financial support from Richard Langley, Fredericton NB, in US funds but not necessarily, via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com Or via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5940.19, Oct 9 at 0639, PMS audio on a discrete spur in the sideband of 5935 WWCR; no match on the minus side (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, Oct 9 from 2350, standing by for the delayed and delayed revival of WTWW: finally cuts on Oct 10 at *0009.5, JIP preacher referring to this month and this day being for Pastor Appreciation; I guess it`s a carefully chosen recording of Pastor Pete Peters while he lived. Hits S9+40/48 but modulation including hymns is a bit rough and crackly with distortion (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VATICAN. 17800 // 15595, Oct 9 at 1530, Arabic opening from VR SMG site, both unreasonably strong if aimed away, 116 and 107 degrees respectively (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 4741.5, Oct 9 at 0643, as I happen to be here during a routine bandscan, CODAR ID fires two times, starting with WR, probably WRPW597 as reported extensively last Feb 10/11, from the MS/AL/FL Gulf coast, so still every icosaminute at :03, :23, :43. I think the IDs are not ordinary CW, but just as wideband as CODAR itself, which paused during IDs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9960, Oct 9 at 0616, some JBA broadcast here in splash from TOMBS 9955 WRMI. Nothing listed; only 9960 in Aoki & EiBi is 1730-1930 R. Pilipinas. 2 x 4980? Nothing listed there except in HFCC but not at this hour, Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems. 3 x 3320? P`yongyang is there 22 hpd including now; but some new fundamental likelier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0027 October 10

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sunday Oct 8 at 1553 and 1650 chex, NO LRA36 signal into Argentine or Brazilian SDRs - despite sked they just sent to Manuel of 15-17 daily except Sat 18-23 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** FRANCE. 13735, Oct 8 at 1520, again I tune UTwente in too late to hear any weather or race info from MiniTransAt, already in rock medley music fill bits, including 1522 ``Sweet Dreams``, 1526 ``We Will Rock You``, S9+15. 1527 ``à demain``, and James Bond closing theme, from which movie? 1528 dead air to 1530.2* off - or rather not quite: still a JBA carrier at S7 past 1608, presumably the Issoudun exciter not also turned off as nothing else is known on 13735. https://minitransat.fr/ map shows all vessels still at Santa Cruz de La Palma on east side of island, no departures yet for Guadeloupe. Also details of race standings places 1 thru 28 with three more at the bottom dropped out, ``abandon``. There are no Atlantic hurricanes now, but a ``tropical wave`` developing might be a problem. See https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/gtwo.php Petteri Kostermaa explains: ``Hi Glenn, Re "I wonder if leaders keep leading or they all re-depart La Palma at once." Yes, they all depart at the same time from La Palma on 28 Oct. It is the total time of both legs that determines the winner. 73s, Petteri`` --- hmm, that`s quite a long layover, but welcome recovery? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11510, Oct 8 at 0649, JBA music, presumed Turco/Kurdo radio war as nothing else in the 11.5s; 11525, Oct 8 at 1445, JBA music, ditto, nothing else below 11590 = KTWR in Kazakh. I suspect Dengê Gel and consequently Recep the Jammer could appear on any 5/kHz-step channel in this range, not necessarily at same time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Oct 8 at 1507 UT, K17JN Enid still on air transmitting nothing but black and silence; including the three ``audio only`` subchannels which were always black - and one of those was always silent (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday October 8 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, this new time finally activated after several weeks on the alleged skedgrid: S9/+5 into Bonaire SDR, maybe a trace of jamming during fades. Not confirmed, UT Sun Oct 8 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, nor expected as changed to `Thank You` show previously. I`ve asked Jeff what that`s for, and if it`s a WRMI produxion or from elsewhere. Nasty ute is still blasting noise at 0030 for first 14 seconds. NOT confirmed, UT Sunday Oct 8 at 0300 on WRMI 7780, despite appearance on skedgrid several days ago; instead, Slovakia in English. Guess what: skedgrid shows 7780 at 0300-0330 on BOTH Systems D & F, the latter with RSI English and // 7730, where I think I am also hearing it but not synchronized. I notified Jeff about this contradixion, and now I see that Sys D sked has deleted WOR and everything else at 0300-0330 daily. Confirmed UT Sunday October 8 at 0311 about 4 minutes into so started circa 0307 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, S9+15 into nearby MO SDR. As usual, not awake during Sunday 1030-1100 on WRMI 9955; has anyone reconfirmed that airing lately? Next: 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW; to be confirmed] 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [was planned from late Sept] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB 1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2210] 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week for generous financial support from Richard Langley, Fredericton NB, in US funds but not necessarily, via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com Or via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, Oct 8 at 0649, dead air yet again from WRNO vs HLLNL; something`s always messed up at Metairie, and/or fouled up at Fort Worth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9162 USB, Oct 8 at 1455, weak 2-way seems Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1958 UT October 8

** ANTARCTICA [and non]. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Oct 7, listening to Argentine remote from 1755, nothing yet from LRA36; let it play as noise under Handel`s oratorio Jephtha on WFMT/KUCO. Just at intermission, 1815, I realize it`s on, maybe a bit earlier. Later switch to Brasil SDR where at 1835 it`s S7/S8 during song. 1950 a piece from someone in Sucre, Bolivia about that city, founded in 1538y. 2100 & 2216 still going with songs. Off during song without despedida circa 2310*, nothing but splash from 15480 China at 2312.
Earlier, a report on the WOR iog from: ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain --- Current schedule, according to a WhatsApp received from the station: Saturdays: 1800-2300, program “Uniendo Voces” and “Jóvenes de la Antártida”. All other days of the week: 1500-1700, program “Ecos de la Antártida”. Today, Saturday, October 7, they have bad weather at Base Esperanza. They hope to be able to go on air and that the weather does not affect the transmission`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT [non]. 9440.001, Oct 7 at 2218, news in English with correspondent reports, too good to be Cairo, and not on 9439.995 into UTwente. Of course, it`s BBCWS relay this hour only via USAGM Tinang, Philippines 250 kW at 200 degrees toward Indonesia. I won`t accuse this of being a violation of Separation Of Church And State, altho UKQOGBANI is theoretically a theocracy --- just ask King Charles III. Is he a.k.a. CIIIR, like his mom, EIIR? Cairo had been reported recently by Alan Holder, Isle of Wight, to have improved modulation, but not on air now, tho who knows, could have initiated English at 2115. Somethings amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE [and non]. 13735, October 7 at 1502, JBA signal direct. EiBi has nothing but MiniTransAt, as this is one of four available frequencies during the bakery race. At 1516 I tune at UTwente, where it`s no longer on 6100, just a weak presumed CRI, but S7/S8 on 13735, playing medley of classic rock hits, only the signature title tunes, like `Hey Jude`. The weather and race standings info must have been quite brief today. 1526, YL with quick words, I think ``Have a nice day``, a bit of James Bond theme music, 1527 dead air to 1530*. Map at https://minitransat.fr/ shows most have arrived at La Palma, Canary Islands, completing first leg. Then onward to Guadeloupe. I wonder if leaders keep leading or they all re-depart La Palma at once. Later on may ascend further to 15300, not there yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ISRAEL [and non]. [WOR] ``i24 news from Israel --- Altho there is plenty of coverage of the Israel/Gaza war on US news channels, may I point out a channel direct from Israel, i24. I have found it to be fairly objective in the past, non-governmental AFAIK. It may be on a basic cable tier like here; or maybe satellite, or streaming`` --- I posted at 1916 UT Oct 7. There ensued discussions of how to hear KAN -- successor to Kol Israel, online (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALDIVES [non]. Re: ``11620, Oct 6 at *1459.7 carrier on, 1500 seems to JIP intro in English, never IDing as Voice of Martyrs, Korea...`` Hi Glenn - The usual intro per my recording {May 3} - https://app.box.com/s/ycqvhrojx0n8c3lm6itxk60a02583ouf "Maldives shortwave radio. This is Pastor Eric Foley from Voice of the Martyrs Korea. There are followers of Jesus all around the world, even inside the Maldives. . ." FYI: "The Reverend Eric Foley is CEO and Co-Founder, with his wife Dr. Hyun Sook Foley, of Voice of the Martyrs Korea, supporting the work of persecuted Christians in North Korea and around the world and spreading their discipleship practices worldwide. . ." https://dotheword.org/about/ Ron California`` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Enid translator K17JN, 3ABN and multiple subchannels after several weeks nominal operation is black and silent, Oct 7 at 0510 UT and still at 1513 check. Zenith STB box displays ``NO SIGNAL`` yet meter shows usual strong signal! So it IS on the air, but failing to modulate any video or audio. This useless thing is Enid`s only local TV transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TIBET [non]. 13720, Sat Oct 7 at 1359, humroar and off leaving algo JBA. Not your usual kind of CNR1 jamming against RFA Tibetan via Tajikistan at 1300-1400. After 1400 per EiBi that would be KTWR in DD language to S Asia: we have to uplook at his README page: ``DD Dhodiya / Dhodia: India-Gujarat (150,000) [dho]`` ``On the right in [brackets] the ISO 639-3 (SIL) language code for reference. For more information on language [abc] visit https://iso639-3.sil.org/code/abc `` - SIL was originally Summer Institute of Linguistix, erstwhile gospel huxter entity, dedicated to depriving countless ethnicities of their original religions: https://www.sil.org/about/history (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sat Oct 7 at 2201, sufficient direct, VOT not off the air today, and good modulation for a change, 2217 only S9/+15 into UTwente, weaker than usual with multilingual ID filler reel. 2220 `Gripping Piles` on increasing water use in the global textile industry. 2228 `Captain`s Log` travelog. 2234 always-by-your side promo, music.. 2239 with-you-every-hour promo, DA, music. 2251 canned s/off, chopped off before finished at 2252.8, not a note of IS. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 26110 NBFM, Sat Oct 7 at 1450 UT, no doubt KMK282, studio feed from KOVR ``13``, remote news report about some neighborhood. This time most readable in FM mode at fadeups to S5. California 10m beacons also simul (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 28265, Oct 7 at 1455, DE K6SSB/B, the new beacon at Brentwood CA, as first heard 24h ago. These are by sporadic E, which never - hardly ever - reaches the FMBC band this time of year, but plenty of lower MUFs. 28300, Oct 7 at 1456, K6FRC/B, beacon at Tracy CA, again too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday October 7 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S9/+12 into Missouri SDR. Also confirmed Saturday October 7 at 1600 on WRN North America webcast. Also confirmed Saturday October 7 at 1639 the NEW 1630 on WRMI 15770, but JBA direct, and also JBA S6/S7 into UTwente, Europe target area! Does make it well as far as Maine SDR, S9+10/20. Also confirmed after 1930 Saturday October 7 on WRN webcast, and almost synchronized on WRMI webcast-only; is that out of WRN too? Also confirmed at 1941 about 3 minutes into so started circa 1938 after ARRL News on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, S9 into nearby MO SDR. Next: 0000 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 to SSE [? was planned from late in Sept] 0245vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0457] 0300 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW; to be confirmed) 1030 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 [jammed by Cuba?] 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW; to be confirmed] 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [was planned from late Sept] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB 1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2210] 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week for generous financial support from Richard Langley, Fredericton NB, in US funds but not necessarily, via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com Or via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7490v), UT Sat Oct 7 at 0000, `AAAWWW` on WBCQ, quickly recognized as rerun of last week, so dispensed with. BTW, just before this, the live? FKB gospel huxter show broadcasts a ``one minute!`` warning to him to wrap it up, from WBCQ op. But why does that go on the air? I guess he is listening to himself off the air/web (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, Oct 7 at 0641, S9+20/25 of dead air, enough to overcome the high local line noise level - HLLNL. So WRMI yet again has failed to turn off #10 transmitter at scheduled 0400* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, Oct 7 at 0714, S9+45 of dead air from WRNO, yet again. Maybe will be in Mandarin if & when they get around to it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 26450 USB, Oct 7 at 1453, full bandscan turns up one side of 2-way conversation, frequent pauses for replies; at first seems Greekish, or more like Slavic. Deep fades and peaks. Doubt it`s from Europe, as no 25800 Denmark which might have been propagating. 10 & 11 m bands are open from California via sporadic E (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2340 UT October 7

** CANADA. Responses to my obs of ``no report received`` from Trenton Military:
In the UDXF iog: ``Michael Scheel, Oct 5 #111948, After seeing that Glenn Hauser reporting via his log online that he hadn't heard Trenton for a while. I tried it just now (2032z) and hearing it weak but readable via a SDR in the Midwest. The broadcast consisted of a roll call of several terminals with "no report received".`` And Oct 5-6 on the WOR iog: ``Tuned into Trenton Military on 6754 kHz starting at 0031 UTC (S9+20 signal into central NC) and heard several actual weather reports for Shannon, Prestwick (sp?), and Keflavik, however after that, everything else was "no report received" for all other locations (Shearwater, Greenwood, Gander, Halifax, Trenton, Bagotville, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary, Cold Lake, Winnipeg, Edmonton, Abbotsford, Comox, Victoria, Vancouver). As usual the station clock reports the current Eastern Daylight Time as Zulu time. After a 0059 UTC sign off, it started up again around 0112 with many "no report received" observations until 0130 when there were three additional reports that were not "no report received" for Zagreb, Split, and Thule.

WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed Friday October 6 after 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+12 into nearby Noale SDR, and no CC QRM, England finally gone. NOT confirmed Fri Oct 6 after 2030 on WRMI webcast only, rather world music tunes we have heard countless times before. This airing has continued on the System B skedgrid for several weeks, never fulfilled. Confirmed Friday October 6 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, JBA into portable DX-398 but surely much better otherwise. Preceded by music other than IS & ID loop; as SW is just resuming after webcast only break.

More talk, between ``405`` and ``406``, one much weaker than the other; or ``Highland Echo``? Something like that, then ``moving to primary, out``. Searching frequency at UDXF iog, besides Russian, Taiwan and Chinese stuff, was active for Armed Forces Day crossband several years ago, and several logs of NNN0ASF, MARS, Easton MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 17680-17685-17690, Oct 6 at 1456, DRM noise at S9, too close to weak AM signal on 17690, but DRM cuts off at 1457*. That uncovers an AM on 17685 in French vs CCI QRM? Or voice-over something in background. But this also goes off at 1458*, uncovering a JBA carrier on 17685 AM. Listings are of NO help: only 17685 in HFCC is non-digital Issoudun at 1600-1630, an hour later. Nothing in Aoki. EiBi shows that as ``CLA Amharic R.Int.V.o.Fanno AH EAf /F-i`` The 17690 until 1500 would be VOA Tibetan via Lampertheim, Germany or/and CNR1 jamming, of course (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0103 UT October 7

** BRAZIL. 6107-6127 approx., Oct 5 at 0205, extremely distorted blob, can`t specify a peak point, hyper-enthusiastic Brazuguese talk, like futebol play-by-play. It`s RNA, totally missing from 6180 leaving that clear for MWV Madagascar in Spanish. By 0211, manage to match mod peaks to 11780 which sounds OK on separate radio. Something`s bollixed up at Brasília!
Ron Trotto was first reporting this as unID into IL on 6115. That`s approaching local midnight at 0300 UT; do futebol games run that late in Brasil or is it a playback? Next check at 0240, both are off: previously logged chopping off air during programming at 0230* rather than nominal 0300*. Ron Howard replies: ``The only major sports event found in Brazil (Rio De Janeiro) tonight, as noted on online, was the Volleyball Men's Olympic Qualification Tournaments, with Brazil vs Ukraine. Final score - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfonZnrOPTE Ron (Calif.)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2211) ** CANADA. From Richard B Langley, NB: ``Hi Glenn: Just a minor nitpick of your last program. Miramichi is actually pronounced as mir-a-mi-SHEE. Not so it rhymes with Don Ameche. Another weird Canadian`` Richard, Tnx, please don`t hesitate to correct/enlighten me about any further mistaxe. I do tend to default to penultimatism u.o.s. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2211) ** FRANCE [and non]. 6100, about MiniTransAt, we`ve been calling this a yacht race, but I note that word does not appear on the homepage when translated to English. These are of course, sailboats, unmotored, right?? That`s the point of the race. I suppose there is some ideal, not very large size, for speed, yet able to grab plenty of wind. What`s a yacht, and what`s nacht? It seems American usage is quite different from elsewhere. Huge luxury vessels also called yachts. Google translate indicates that if they have to say it, the French use the English word (Glenn Hauser, landlubber, WORLD OF RADIO 2211) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2210 monitoring: confirmed UT Thursday October 5 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/25 into Missouri SDR.

Not on air last night or tonight. Problem is the remote control which had been reliable for years, is not working. Will have to download the program and install on a different computer. Bob Biermann agrees to wait until next Monday night = UT Tuesday October 10 at 0100; but possibly could start earlier if the remote is working. He can also handle the PPP feeds. SFA in Colorado still wants to sell it; maybe in a couple months. If so, George hopes to retain access to one of the transmitters. One of the antenna fields to be combined with neighboring property for greater value over $ 1 million (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 5 circa 0645, no signal from R. Vanuatu. As also noted by Ron Howard: ``Radio Vanuatu - Oct 5, tuned in at 0644 UT, expecting to hear them on 7260, as they normally switch frequencies from 7260 to 3945, at 0658, but not today; already on 3945 at tune in; 0659, promo for the Vanuatu TV program "Morning Show"; 0701, start of news. Wonder when they started broadcasting on 3945 today? Ron California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2211) This report dispatched at 0240 UT October 6
