Hauser
** ARGENTINA. 28453 USB, Oct 1 at 2206, CQ 10 from LU9DA, Rick in Mar
del Plata. Soon works WB1WM, Brent in MA, also audible. QRZ.com:
``LU9DA Argentina flag Argentina, RICARDO "Rick" SUAREZ, Barrio Las
Avenidas, Mar Del Plata B7600, Argentina`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 28480 USB, Oct 1 at 2207, CQDX from PY2SBY, Elvis in SP.
QRZ.com: ``PY2SBY Brazil flag Brazil, Elvis Gui, Vila Prudente, São
Paulo, SP 03135020, Brazil`` He went bald between 2001 and 2006y
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11815, Oct 1 at 0630, S4/S5 of harmonious song, presumably
R Brasil Central, one of few signals on band besides 11700 France.
EiBi and Aoki show Vatican, Japan, Taiwan and ChiCom jamming use 11815
but only RBC at this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHILE. 28410 USB, Oct 1 at 2204, CQ10 from CE3FSL. Not in QRZ.com -
am pretty sure he was saying ``sugar`` for S, but maybe something
else, not sierra (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 889 & 891, Oct 1 at 0646, JBA carriers/spurs/tones are back
from R. Progreso (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Oct 1 at 0643, S9+20/40 of dead air in Spanish from R.
Rebelde. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. The Other Side:

``Cubans are 'looking for food every day, and now water' --- The
island nation, which was once an agricultural exporter, now even has
to import its sugar. Almost the entire population has encountered
difficulties in finding enough food to eat.
By Alice Soledad (Havana, special correspondent) Published on
September 26, 2024, at 8:00 pm (Paris), updated on September 26, 2024,
at 9:35 pm...``
https://www.lemonde.fr/en/international/article/2024/09/26/cubans-are-looking-for-food-every-day-and-now-water_6727367_4.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 13760, Oct 1 at 1452, S4/S5 music but
modulation breaking up badly from VOK. Not local QRM, as even worse at
1520 into UTwente, and also with Chinese ACI from 13755, CRI via
Kashgar, standard denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Tue Oct 1 at 1524, REE VP direct but S8/S9 into
UTwente, and still no 15390. Both scheduled to start at *1500 M-F,
*1400 Sa/Su. 17715 also on by 1833, but still not 17855. Something`s
notright at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 1, JBA carrier from a few sex past *2200: I bet
it`s another fail:  After 10m check, by 2208, not even that much. Nor
anything later into UTwente. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28282+ CW, Oct 1 at 2202, VVV DE KW1RF/B - WGB list:
``28282.3 KW1RF/B - Preston CT USA FN41an - #0/1 (24 Sept  2024) Note:
VVV de ID + grid - 1/4 wave vertical 5w`` - QRZ.com: ``KW1RF USA flag
USA, NATHANIEL A LEE, Preston Contest And DX Society, 136 Parks Rd,
Preston, CT 06365, USA -- Jan 1, 2024: on the air with a 10m CW beacon
on 28.282.3 MHz, 3W to a quarter-wave ground mounted vertical`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Tuesday October 1 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+10 into Durango2 SDR,
after Everglades ID.

Also confirmed Tuesday October 1 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S6/S9 direct,
no jamming audible, after music to ToH, no ID.

Also confirmed Tuesday October 1 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia,

** ARGENTINA [and non]. 28193 CW, Sept 30 at 2205, wobbly dash, steady
dash, and VVV DE LU2DT ... WGB list: ``28193 LU2DT - Mar Del Plata BA
ARG GF11fx - #0/1/3 (14 Sept 2024) Note: VVV de ID + grid 30" off -
Pwr 10w``. QRZ.com: ``LU2DT Argentina flag Argentina, Radio Club MAR
DEL PLATA, C.C. 664, MAR DEL PLATA, BA 7600, Argentina``. Also relogs
of VE1VDM/B, NS, 28174; and V31HQ/B Belize, 28258 - over a wide area
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 28405 USB, Sept 30 at 2209, PP5KP calling CQ DX several
times. QRZ.com: ``PP5KP Brazil flag Brazil, RAFA, Rafael Capistrano,
Rua Manoel Vidal, 89 - Pântano do Sul, Florianópolis, SC 88067140,
Brazil`` with photos of equipment, certificates (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 889 & 891, Sept 30 at 0626 and earlier, no spurs/hets
detectable, unlike usually. Maybe fixed or 890 R. Progreso itself be
off? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 30 at 0235, S9+30/40 of dead air in English from
RHC - not even a trace of mod. Only other frequency on is 15230 at
0249, S9/+10 of extremely suptorted music in presumed Spanish service.
Somethings always wrongs at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 17675, Sept 30 at 0631, surprised to find RNZP here so
late, after nothing on 9700, 11725 or 13690; S8/S9 report about a case
of radiation exposure on Guam; 0633 start another program, `It`s
Personal` interview. This is not a mistake, however, as Tanino
Marabello points out, another sked revision shows 17675 at 0000 until
0658 daily ``updated 8 Sept``! Surely was not running 17675 that late
already for two sesquiweeks:
https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen
17675 also at 2259-0000 Sun-Fri only - so that means ZERO frequencies
during that hour on Saturdays, surely not correct! 13690 now shown at
0659-1258 for Pacific daily, AND 1059-1258 for Solomons/PNG on M-F
only. Does that mean one transmitter split into NW and NE antennas, or
two different transmitters on same frequency? This span was previously
shown on two different frequencies. At 1259-1650 daily on 7440 for
Pacific, which I confirmed circa 1345 after a 1-hour power outage
here. 15720 at 1859-2258 depending on day of week, target.

This schedule can be so confusing. Instead of specifying different
days of week for each segment, they ought to have complete skeds for
Mon-Fri, another for Sat only and another for Sun only. DRM skeds
should also be separated. Also it takes a lot of fishing around
website to find program sked info, depending on whether it`s RNZ
domestic relay and those are of course in local imaginary time UT+13
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935 USB, Sept 30 at 0237 song, S9+10/20 somewhat
distorted. These say it`s KDOG:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,134439.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 AM, Sept 30 at 0228, open carrier, unID. No
reports in HFU but 25 hours earlier was Liquid Radio (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.92 approx., Sept 30 at 0255, Enid CB pirate with
music // 105.5 K288FX translator of Kay-Love, KYLV 88.9 OKC - but with
a big het from a spoiler about 27184.65. Same situation at 0625
recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 11934.894, Sept 30 at 1550, Arabic lexure
with music segments, and NO, chirping/jamming for a change, presumed
still Rep. of Yemen Radio service; S9+10/20 into UTwente. Wanted to
hear such ID around 1600 but *1557 outwiped by heavy ACI from 11940,
CRI English claiming everything is just fine and free in China,
restarting English at 1600; from Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN, land of
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems. By 1707
recheck, 11934.895- in the clear again, and still at 1931, exactly
same offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520+, Mon Sept 30 at 2202, token English from SNR, ONLY
here, now the other three frequencies ALL OFF: 17855, 17715, 15390 -
unless some might have moved without notice: they never announce any
frequencies during broadcast. Something`s not sufficient at Noblejas.
15520 is S9+10/20 direct off the back toward ME, with flutter: not
solid but readable. 2215 feature interview is something about king of
Spain commissioning art, women`s portraits? by Rubens from the Low
Countries in the XVII century (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TAJIKISTAN. 15515, Sept 30 at 0250, gospel huxter in English,
S9/+10 with flutter. EiBi shows AWR via Dushanbe for Bangladesh at
0200-0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.005-, Sunday Sept 29 at 2159, VOT IS, not off the
air, VG S9+45/50 into UTwente. 2200 sign/on as if it`s 1230 on 17620,
preview features `Weekly Analysis`, `Letterbox` and music, into olds.
One topic is objexion to US lifting arms embargo on Greek Cyprus. 2216
`Weekly Analysis` by Prof. Dr. somebody of some institution, cannot
possibly copy the names or even guess at their spellings, nor at
outro. About crises in ME and Europe. 2224 `The Letterbox Program`:
Hope you are all in good mood. Halil is very well today unlike last
week. 1) Christer Brunström, Sweden: report of 11 August. Using a VOT
QSL to illustrate an article in Eter Aktuellt. Says the 25-language ID
is a waste of time. Why insist in English we call it Türkiye? Should
other countries require to be called Sverige, or España? Halil
explains how he used to be mocked with turkey-gobbling, like when he
visited the US at Thanksgiving. I`ve got news for them: it sounds too
much like Turkey - should come up with a totally different name. Some
remark about climate change. Tech dept says the multi-lingual ID
filler reel, as I call it, is when they are turning some of the 3
satellites in use -- yeah, sure. Siam changed to Thailand to avoid
confusion with that cat. 2) at 2234: Jayanta Chakroborty, New Delhi,
yet again for QSL, 7 Sept report on 7275 at 0300: why does he keep
reporting the NAm frequency off the back and not the S Asian 6165 off
the front? Perhaps at 8:30-9:30 am IST there is too much summer
daytime for 6 MHz. 3) David Ross, somewhere in Canada, new listener?
Sept 9 report on 7275. DXer since 1972 and has huge ham country total.
No eQSLs, only pQSLs. 4) Matthew Ellis, Springfield USA - MO, is that
Missouri? heard Sept 8 at 2230. 5) Ankor? Oleg?, Brest, Belarus, no
further info. 2245 time`s up, goodbye. 2246 music. 2248 multi-lingual
ID filler reel. I thought there were more than 25 but have never
counted them. 2252 headlines, more than usual including Greek Cypriot
item. 2254 s/off as if on 17620. Something`s always awry at Ankara.
2254.8 IS a few times to 2255.3* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.005-, Sept 30 at 2200, VOT English not off the air,
but S9+20/30 direct, s/on as if it`s 1230 on 17620 - something`s
always awry at Ankara. Says after `Review of Turkish Press`, will be
`Energy Agenda`, `That`s Why` and music; into olds, starting with
denials of reports that Germany is deporting 200 refugees, Turx? At
2228 into UTwente when measured, S9+45 ``always-by-your-side`` filler
promo crutch, music. 2236 `That`s Why` about ex-planet Pluto. 2241
music. 2243 ``a-b-y-s`` again already. Well, they do say it`s
``always``, music. 2250 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2253 s/off the
1230 on 17620 - something`s always awry at Ankara, and IS. 2256
re-start IS with German IDs. 2300 accurate timesignal and s/on German,
Altrichten to 2203* chop. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U A E. 9895, Sept 30 at 0243 ME music, S9/+10. EiBi & Aoki show the
only 9895 is at 0230-0300, IBRA Radio in Dari via DHA (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13563+, Sept 30 at 0246, HIFER beacon AN from SW corner of
AZ is JJBBA vs noise level. The only one heard at all lately, despite
at least once-daily scans of this ISM band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
September 29 at 2337 the 2330 on WRMI 7570, S9+15/20 into Carterville
IL N9AZZ SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday September 30 at 0052 the 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S8/9+5 with some storm crashes into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday September 30 from 0301 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.93, S9+10/20 direct after JL gotta go at 0259, something
extraneous at 0300.

Also confirmed Monday September 30 at 1932 the 1930 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 6160.000+ at S9+10/15 into UTwente but with RTTY QRM from
~6164; and 3975.003-, S9+10 clear. Next:

0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW;
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?];
2000 UT Tuesday IRRS 1323-Italy;
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.

Thanks this week to Chris Campbell, Columbus, Ohio, who sent a box of
radios and other equipment to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK
73702; where one may also send a MO or check on a US bank.

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

** U S A. From George McClintock, with photos: ``WTWW: studio and
audio program --- WTWW now has a studio at the transmitter site.
Inline image - WTWW now has a computer program to run audio on either
transmitter. Inline image. WTWW: damage -- WTWW arcing damage to
transmitter # 1. Inline images - George McClintock WTWW 9-30-2024``
(via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** U S A. 5800, UT Mon Sept 30 at 0230, WRMI starting `Wavescan` with
Ray reading a script about early wireless in Japan. Then I find same
on 5850, but not synch, 4 sex behind 5800. As on skedgrid simul but
different playouts on Systems D and F if you look at programming blox
rather than transmitter blox atop which show otherstuff (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9395 & 9455, Sept 30 at 0241, both these WRMIs are OFF,
while the 5s and 7s are nominal. They had been back on since the worst
of H. Helene (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 3803 LSB, Sept 30 at 0225, sounds like standup comedy
routine, with audience applause, reverb; 0226 interrupted by ham
saying ``3820``, then more of same there. No music, but is this a
rulebreaker, more like a pirate broadcast? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0209 UT October 1

Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe

** CHINA [and non?]. 15300, Sept 29 at 0149, Chinese at S9+20/30 with
heavy flutter. NOT listed here at any hour by Aoki, EiBi, nor HFCC
which has finally been updated Sept 29 after a two-week delay!
Probably EAST TURKISTAN with CNR1, could be jammer if SOH have shifted
up from 15295 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 17640, Sept 29 at 0150, CRI English chat, S9/+10 and
// 9580 a few sex delayed via CUBA. 17640 is via Kashi-Saiba, EAST
TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and
other Moslems. See also CHINA 15300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 29 at 0138, RHC S9+30/40 but so suptorted I can`t
be sure it`s in English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Sept 29 at 0148, RHC S9+10 but very suptorted only
audible at Spanish modulation peaks. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
No other frequencies found now besides 6000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 13690, Sun Sept 29 at 0717 and S9+10/20 at 1037
recheck, RNZP still on here instead of 9700. There has been yet
another schedshuffle. Per
https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen
13690 at 0659-1258 daily and 9700 at 1059-1258 M-F, i.e. both on the
air during that bihour: we shall see. DST has just started in NZ,
imagining local time UT+13 yet still west of the dateline, which means
most programming especially when live from domestic RNZ, has to appear
one real UT hour earlier until April; such as, `Mediawatch` UT Sat
2006-2036 on 15720, Sun 0910-0954 on 13690. Its exact duration is
unclear; also available as podcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6924.96 AM, Sept 29 at 0131, rock music with heavy
beat, S9+10. Difference of opinions here: unID, RCW Chile, Liquid
Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,134370.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6920 USB, Sept 29 at 0133, rap at S9+10/20. Lots of
reports here as Sycko Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,134368.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6880 USB, Sept 29 at 0134, rock at S9+20. These say
it`s Radio 48 via MRI, with waterfall image:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,134365.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, Sept 29 at 1445, JBA, no dobut pirate
Hikari FM on its signature offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.61 approx., AM, undermodulated `Kay-Love` stuff //
105.5 FM translator K288FX of KYLV 88.9 OKC; Enid CB pirate again
(GLenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 27, Sept 29 at 0332 UT, KFOR-TV joins the season
première and 50th anniversary show of `Saturday Night Live` THREE
MINUTES LATE, assuming NBC still starts it at 0329 not 0330, JIP the
opening skit which is often the best part of the show, downhill from
there, except for Weekend Update circa 0420. News was over by 0329 but
then crammed in several local commercials and News Nation promo from
their corporate masters! Will have to try to find the full opening
somewhere later. I sent this on their contact form:

``It looks like you cut off the first 3 minutes of SNL which NBC has
been starting at 10:29 and I don`t think there was any sports delay
tonight. Of all things, this was their season premiere and 50th
anniversary show. You should apologize and play it from the start
during a newscast on Sunday. IF I am wrong, I apologize, as it`s hard
to be sure what we have NOT been able to see, but the opening skit
appeared to be in progress when you cut to NBC at 10:32, after
commercials and News Nation promo.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PHILIPPINES. 9405, Sept 29 at 1444, Korean at S7/S9, the SSOB
except for 9980 WWCR. This hour is VOA via Tinang, the 21 degree beam
carrying right on into us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA [non]. 11936+, Sept 29 at 1447, chirping at S5 direct,
presumed IRAN jamming SA`s inaudible Republic of Yemen Radio (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring. WTWW 9475 still
off the air at 2300 UT Saturday September 28 - but cuts on at *2302,
not with WOR but Scriptures for America. Modulation level up and down
with breaks, and chop off at 2307* - so just as well did not attempt
WOR, still having problems with this transmitter.

Confirmed UT Sunday September 29 at 0020 the 0000 on WRMI 9955,
S9+10/22 into Missouri SDR; no jamming audible nor has there been for
a while during WORs on 9955.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 29 at 0320 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO,
S9+15/20 into nearby SDR, about 3 minutes into so started circa 0317
the 0315v, close. Next:

Not confirmed Sunday September 29 the listed 1030 on WRMI 9955; check
at 1038 hears TOMBS instead. Maybe is on stream?

Confirmed Sunday September 29 at 1900 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.995, S9+5 into UTwente. Next:

** U S A. 9955, WRMI: now whenever checked, such as Sept 29, RFI
Spanish no longer heard before 0700 nor Polish Radio in English after
0700: rather, Brother Scare! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UZBEKISTAN. 15475-, Sept 29 at 1450, JBA carrier offset minus but
not measured, typical for Tashkent site, as Furusato no Kaze is
scheduled - and reminding us that LRA36 continues to be absent from
15475.98 RCUSB. Now that spring has sprung in Antarctica, it`s about
time to get it going again with that long-expected new transmitter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4763.64 USB, 2-way in Spanish, which would not be here
if R. Progreso still existed on 4765 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 18995, Sept 29 at 0151, S9 open carrier, OSOB. Nothing
listed, in little-used SWBC band except by SOH and ChiCom jammers,
maybe something related to that. Often have carriers elsewhere on band
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 28 at 0616, S9+30/40 of dead air in Spanish from
R. Rebelde. IIRC, 24 hours earlier it was totally off the air. You
never know which will it be; something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 7340, Sept 28 circa 1540, nice music, presumably
XJRTV Kazakh service as listed, fair into UTwente, from Urumqi, land
of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems; was
checking for Mini TransAt sailboat race special, expected to reappear
via FRANCE during this hour here and on 13735, nothing yet (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 739.97 approx., Sept 28 at 0630, R. Fórmula IDs, i.e. XEQN,
Torreón, Coahuila, mixing with 740 KRMG (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 800, Sept 28 at 0632, heavy QRM to KQCV OKC, very distorted
music from XEERG, Ojo de Agua, Nuevo León, as I previously discovered,
still not fixed or silenced (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sept 28 at 0613, Station YHWH, anti-Christ
pirate once again on much later than formerly, JBA Josiah
pontificating (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11620, Sept 28 at 0618, S6/S7 in German, the SSOB and
virtually the OSOB. RRI at 0600-0630 only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.005, Sept 28 at 2201, VOT English not off the air,
good direct with olds. 2207 into UTwente when measured, S9+50. 2211
music. 2224 ``always-by-your-side`` promo. 2225 `The Energy Agenda` on
battery manufaxuring increasing in Turkey. 2230 `Turkey`s Geomarked
Products` on women`s Azolay[??] outfits starting with a skullcap and
chin strap which give a clue about her marital status. 2236 music.
2240 music. 2244 music. 2247 ``always-by-your-side`` promo agin,
music. 2252 s/off the 1230 on 17620, NOT, duh. Something`s always awry
at Ankara; IS to 2255* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U A E. 21470.165, Sept 28 at 1514, JBA offfrequency carrier; sked
Sat only at 14-16 is BBC English via DHA to Central Africa. Some
sites/transmitters are habitually askew. Why isn`t there a simple
``fine-tuning`` control like on receivers? Or maybe there is but no
one cares or pays attention (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT Saturday
Sept 28 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, as George McClintock notified at 0240:

``WTWW transmitter problems --- Glenn, The #1 transmitter was throwing
off the driver breaker. Found that the neutralizer plate was too close
to the boiler which has full plate voltage. This caused the
transmitter to only run 40 KW. We are now able to run 100 KW. However,
the studio lost power today due to the storm and was unable to feed
Brother Stair to WTWW. Power will return by Sunday. I am having to
take BRo. Stair directly off his website. This caused the #1 & 2
transmitters to be uncontrolable by remote control.  So your program
cannot air tonight (Friday). I did run Stair on 9930 from transmitter
#2 today Friday). #2 transmitter had a set of its own problems. I am
activating a 2nd computer which should correct the problems. What a
mess this storm has created. George McClintock 9-27-2024``

Confirmed Saturday September 28 at 1447 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,

** U S A. 920, Sept 28 at 0635 UT, sportstalk dominant above
preachtalk. KYFR Shenandoah IA normally dominates at night here with a
lobe aimed right at us; there are several sportstalkers but closest
with the mostest is KARN Little Rock AR. Its night pattern is supposed
to be a circle tangent to the SW. Radio-locator shows plenty signal
thisaway, notches to the NNW and east. This was originally KARK, a
premier radio station which spawned KARK-TV ch 4 but not licensed
until 1957, now RF 32 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN [and non]. 21705, Sept 28 at 1515, S5/S7 in Portuguese:
Vatican Radio special covering pope`s travels. More activity than
usual on 13m with JBA signals or carriers now also on: 21720, 21690,
21645, 21485; and 21470.165, see UAE (Glenn Hauser, OK,  WOR)

** MEXICO. 739.97 approx., Sept 27 at 0650, Spanish talk mixing with
740.0 KRMG even on my E/W longwire. Normally XEQN, Torreón, Coahuila
only makes a LAH against KRMG. It`s been off frequency for ages, but
not mentioned as such in the IRCA Mexican Log! mwoffsets has it on the
other side, 740.06 as of two years ago.

Tim Hall`s Border Inn NV/UT report of last year: ``739.937 MÉXICO
XEQN, Radio Fórmula, Torreón, COAH. 10/29 1158 - Way under KIDR with
Radio Fórmula feed including single-verse children's choral version of
Mexican anthem, //XEE-590 and XEKAM-950. MWLIST offset data shows
XECAQ on 739.95 and XEQN on 740.06, but I believe someone got the two
Radio Fórmula stations confused. 1125 miles. Relog.`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA [non]. 11936.190-.230, Sept 27 at 1947, rapid chirping
upon Riyadh`s Yemen service, bit of talk underneath. UTwente lox on to
various frequencies in this range when tuned to 11936.20. S9+20.
Waterfall shows 11936 upward to 11960, and very little if tuned to
LSB, not even the Sa`udi carrier on 11935. Perhaps they have moved it
again? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17715, Friday Sept 27 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
S9+10/20 with some flutter but deteriorating, this SAm frequency while
17855 to NAm is absent. Also on 15520 backwards for ME, S9+10/20; and
15390 for Africa still AWOL. So REE is at 50% capacity. No news today,
but into feature interview, something about Artefacto, witnessing
changes in crafts at 2218 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Sept 27 at *2200-2202*, TRT attempts to start up but
only dead air in English and soon off, not to return. It was S6/S8
with flutter direct. Why does this keep happening like once a week?
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7268 LSB, Sept 27 at 0505, Hurricane Watch Net is of course
active due to Helene, soliciting reports of wind speeds, pressure,
welfare traffic. I am monitoring via Georgia remote. 0506 NCS WF4H
turns it over to W1ABW. No reply to many prompts and when there is
one, usually much weaker to inaudible here. At 0522 someone is QSYing
to 7260 for a side contact. What about VANUATU?! A bit early, not
audible there yet. 0556 I hear N8NIF. 0655 recheck still going, asking
for equipment chex. QRZ.com:

** U S A [non]. 17630, Sept 27 at 1630-1700*, new Friday-only VOA
Fulani service, VG into UTwente and Kenya SDR. I run TDOA from
Brasília, Cyprus and Switzerland, which at 1641 leads to: 4.40 N /
18.00 W = off the coast of Guinea: I think not. Re-run from same sites
at 1655 leads instead to: -14.00 / -14.40, = further south in
Atlantic, not exactly Ascension: I think not. Allegedly Botswana per
WRTH. This broadcast is still totally missing from ITU, HFCC, EiBi and
Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, Sept 27 at 2352 into
NH SDR: 3265 & 5130 OFF; 7490 -67 Hz with FKB S9+10/20; 6160 -70 Hz
not sure what but `Amazing Grace` into Netanyahu`s UN speech, S9/+10.
0000 Sept 28, `AAAWWW` on 7490- only, WTO theme, talkover starts with
``we have to fight for free speech``, and single interjexion toward
end, ``weasel``. Appears to be a new one. He says Angela does not look
happy. They go right on to blast Democrats for everything that`s
wrong, fascism ``up`` in Maine, so they must be in Deland of Fla
tonight. At 0009 he says they are on both 7490, and 5130 -- NOT.
Electric costs at WBCQ are $ 8000 a month. I`d rather listen to Pres.
Harris` live speech from Douglas AZ. By 0050 recheck there is ACI from
7495 at least into NH. That would be VOA R Ashna via Lampertheim at
0030-0100 only. At 0059.5 Allan is interrupted for canned Allan ID and
joining Hal Turner just about on time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 660, Sept 27 at 0652 UT, C&W music in English, S9+35, 0654
ID for KTNN Window Rock AZ, KTNN Tohatchi NM and KKNS Corrales. So 660
is still on 50 kW ND day pattern, also being reported even further
east such as by Kevin Redding, Crump TN. Once again it far outshines
neighbor 650 WSM. Tohatchi is a ``suburb`` of Window Rock across the
border, but Corrales is a suburb of Albuquerque, 1310 KKNS. KTNN on
101.5 is only 2.25 kW. It should include an -FM suffix but not so in
the WTFDA FM DB. The question is whether it`s always // 660 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
