** 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) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday October 1 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+10 into Durango2 SDR, after Everglades ID.

** 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

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.

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.

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: 2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 7570 to NW; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW [irregular]; 0830 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 6160 [resumed]; 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 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. 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) This report dispatched at 1952 UT September 29

** 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, Germany, 6160.001, S9/+10 into UTwente.

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.

Saturday, September 28 2024
** 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: WF4H flag USA, Dwight A Greenberg, 5320 Shadwell Ave, Cocoa, FL 32926 W1ABW flag USA, DOUGLAS H "Doug" HOGE, 15 LAUREL DR, VOLUNTOWN, CT 06384-2015 N8NIF flag USA, RICHARD K SEELEY, 1549 ROSEWOOD, JENISON, MI 49428 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** 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]. WORLD OF RADIO 2262 monitoring: confirmed Friday September 27 at 2042 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.995 kHz, S8/9+5 into UTwente. Increased talk CCI underneath at 2050. Also confirmed Friday September 27 at 2204 the 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 direct and undermodulated. Also confirmed Friday September 27 at 2234 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.002+, S8/9+10 into UTwente. Next: 0300 UT Saturday WTWW 5085 - but all WTWW frequencies OFF at 0225; 0930 UT Saturday WRMI 9455 to WNW; 1430 UT Saturday SW Radio, Germany 6160; 1730 UT Saturday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM [1900/2100]; 2300 UT Saturday WTWW 9475; 0000 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 0230vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0500]; 1900 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy; 2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 7570 to NW; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW [irregular]; 0830 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 6160 [resumed]; 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 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, but not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com (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) This report despatched at 0231 UT September 28
