** ALGERIA. 17600, May 22 at 0647, Ifrikya FM at S7/S8 in music, French. Propagating again after a spell of lowered night MUFs. Previously had some English in second half of this hour. SSOB by far with several other JBA on 16m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, May 22 at 0647, RHC with S9+25/35 of dead air in English, but no signal on 12000. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Not found on any other frequency by 5025 Rebelde manages to be on and modulating (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 9635, May 22 at 0646, no signal from ORTM, and a JBA one on 5995; contrary to last night when only 9635 was on as early as 0648; traditional switchtime is 0800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15390, May 22 at 1531, REE finally back on air to Africa, only S5/S6 in Spanish to UTwente, // stronger 15520 to ME. Both scheduled to start at 1500 weekdays, 1400 weekends. EiBi shows 15390 target is East Africa, but 161 degrees from Noblejas is more like West, Central & South Africa. Officially registered CIRAF zone targets for 15390 in HFCC are 46,47,52,57: https://www.itu.int/net/ITU-R/terrestrial/broadcast/images/broad-ciraf2.gif i.e. down the west coast of Africa from Western Sahara to South Africa, inland as far as the western half of Sudan; East Africa would be 48. Reconfirmed all four on air into UTwente, token English from SNR, Wed May 22 at 2202: 15389.990, VP S8/S9; 15520.000, S8/9+5; 17715.013, S7/S9; 17855.000, S8/9+5. 2207 Salman Rushdie speaking during book tour in Spain for his latest in translation: note: his books are funny including `The Satanic Verses`. Undercurrent of translation into Spanish. 2226 about boxing? competition involving singers, huh? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, May 22 at 2200, no signal of VOT English into UTwente; nor on possibly overrun 9875, nor either by 2215 recheck. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2242 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees. Dear Glenn: Update, WOR #2242, my confirming is short and sweet, lack of reception due to radio blackouts, and solar flares are hampering my listening and confirming your broadcasts, WRMI: 9395 kHz, double voices heard, why? QSB fading a lot, 0130, 0144, 0159 (45433), 0159, May 16 UTC 2024 [Thu](Lemke, Richard -AB)`` short and longpath?? (gh) WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday May 21 at 2333 the 2330 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.000, S9/+5 into UTwente. Also confirmed Tuesday May 21 at 2335 the 2330 on WRMI 9395, S6/S9 with storm noise into Plymouth MN SDR. Also confirmed Wednesday May 22 at 1951 the 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.000, S9/+10 into UTwente, and running 5 words behind into the same, 3975.003 at S9. Not confirmed Wednesday May 22 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490-, due to Internet outage here; anyone hear it?

Thanks this week to Sheldon Harvey, Québec who sent a box of equipment. One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds, via PayPal to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9475, May 22 at 0021, WTWW still on here, BB on Methodist scisms, S9+50 direct. Not yet QSY to 5085; first was at 2300, then 0000, now 0100? Not rechecked. Makes sense to laten it with expanding daylight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0008 UT May 23

** ALGERIA. 17600, May 21 at 1840 tune-in, Ifrikya FM English in progress, speaker with heavy French? accent, S9+10/15 into UTwente about African nations achieving ``food sovereignty`` such as in Sudan; prompting guest, VP of GRFI, to laud Ifrikya FM, and plugging current event in Algiers. 1847 with 710 exhibitors, more than 25K professionals, about agriculture until May 23. 1848 back to French & Arabic IDs; music I find enjoyable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 21530, May 21 at 2204, JBA carrier, second only to 21490 at S4/S6; per EiBi CNR1 jamming and SOH do not start until 2300, but surely do. Likely likewise the JBA carriers on 18970, 16100 at 2214. See also UNIDENTIFIED 21530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. Spy numbers figure in this 60 Minutes story May 19: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/spies-for-cuba-a-danger-to-us-national-security-as-american-secrets-sold-around-the-world-60-minutes-transcript/ I don`t see a link to axual audiovideo of segment; must be somewhere. It seems that after serving her sentence, Ana Montés is living the good life in Puerto Rico where she is treated as a heroine (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** IRAN [and non]. 5990, May 21 at 1905, as I am checking Canary Is SDR for 5995 MALI, q.v., a big S9+25/40 open carrier here with slight hum, trace of mod at best. EiBi shows it`s VIRI in Albanian at 1820-1920! Typical shutout at Sirjan. I assume this minor language is of interest due to the Islamic minority there, who are thus being disserved; with ACI from 5985 Chinese music, i.e. CRI so-called Portuguese service to southern Africa from Beijing site. How about second registered fq for IRIB Albanian hour? At 1917 into UTwente, nothing on 7325, and 7310 Chinese, probably CNR1 jammer vs SOH. And by 1921, 5990 is off as expected to 1920* in IRIB`s wacky :20 to :20 scheduling of most languages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 9635, May 21 at 0648, surprised to find S6/S8 in French here, normally nothing. Got to be Bamako as nothing on 5995. Normally switches from 5995 to 9635 at 0800. Permanent change or error? Check around 1900 May 21 into Canary SDR, neither. But at 1921, 5995 has come on, S9+20/40 with heated discussion in Bambara? and music breaks. 2006 recheck in French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1120, May 20 at 2035 UT check on caradio, KETU Catoosa back on the air with Spanish music, after missing at 1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 11935, May 21 at 1642, via UTwente, horrible buzzroar gets ACI from CRI English via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN on 11940. Still 1854 in the clear without ACI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN [and non]. 17855, Monday May 20 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG S9+30/40 direct, preview of topic: an AI treaty in Europe rating countries on a scale of 1-12, as in interview underway at 2208 after news. As usual lately, almost as good on 15520 backwards to ME, S9/+10, poor on 17715 to S America, no signal on 15390 for Africa. 15390 has been missing so long that I wonder if they QSYed without notice, at least not in English. HFCC A-24 shows all these 161-degree alternatives available on weekdays during this hour: 21620, 11670, 15350, 15385, 11530. By 2230 when French should be on, I check each via UTwente for possible // to 17855: none, altho there is weak signal from algo on 11670, which would be CNR Beijing from 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 18155 USB, May 21 at 2207, EA7GX contacting a W7 near Bend, Oregon and other Americans, ``Peter in Spain``. Not surprising since Noblejas booms in S9+20/30 on 17855 in non-English. QRZ.com: ``EA7GX Spain flag Spain, PEDRO ROLANDO ORTEGA, ALBORAN 7, LA LINEA DE LA CONCEPCION, CA 11300, Spain`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, May 20 at 2159, TRT IS, 2200 timesignal, opening English, S9+10/20 direct but still too much high local noise level - HLNL of S9+10. So not off the air today, but no time to listen in detail. Recheck into UTwente where measured: 2253.6 s/off ignoring SW, 2254.3 IS but chopoff by 2254.7, no finesse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 11785.009, May 21 at 2159, no signal direct from VOT English vs S9 HLNL while RRI 11800 manages to be JBA. But at 2200:15, JBA carrier briefly on 11785. Recheck at 2215 not even that. Finally at 2234 I tune UTwente to confirm no 11785 --- but there is Ms. Badax on 9875.007! That`s the 2030-2130 English frequency running way overtime. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. S9+15/25, but in addition heavy ACI from stronger 9880 which is CRI Esperanto with a Chinese? accent, for S America via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems; not that that gets Turkey off the hook for denied genocide against Armenians a century ago. Anyhow, not going to try to listen under such circumstances, and besides, it`s primarily time for BBC and NBC news on TV. But recheck at 2254 both 9875 and 11785 off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed Monday May 20 at 1930.5 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001 S9+20 and 3975.003 S+10, into UTwente. Also confirmed UT Tuesday May 21 at 0334 the 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+10/20 into Querétaro SDR. Also confirmed Tuesday May 21 at 1322 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S5/S7 very poor direct. Next: 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; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated, by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. Thanks this week to Sheldon Harvey, Québec who sent a box of equipment. One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds, via PayPal to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17790, May 21 at 1527, WRMI-7, with IS and IDs, ``programming resumes at top of the hour`` -- NOT! 1530 stops and something undermod, presumably ``Radio Africa`` to S America. Propagation continues very degraded, but at S7 direct, this wins as the SSOB. Not all WRMI frequencies ``resume`` at ToH, but they don`t have a runup version specifying ``bottom of the hour``. Nominally 17790 would start at 1500, until 2100. Something`s odd at Okee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, May 21 at 0658, S9+50! of dead air from WWCR direct, as often happens late at night instead of TOMBS. Standard derision (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13845.026, May 21 at 1534, WWCR-3 perceptibly off-frequency, so I check two remotes for accurate measurement: UTwente inaudible, yet enough signal to lock onto as above. Same readout for NH SDR, accurate calibrated with WWV. MUF is such that 13845 is weaker than usual while 12160 blasts in direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** URUGUAY. 24965 USB, May 20 at 2206, CX4RT working FL and other US. Only phone signal on band. A few minutes earlier, nothing at all on 10m. QRZ.com: ``CX4RT Uruguay flag Uruguay, Juan Conde, Aveneu Victor Hugo casi Lope De Vega Post Code 20100, Punta del Este Grid Square Locator GF25MB Uruguay`` -- putting that GSL on your letter might confuse the posties! Photos of antennas, equipment, motorcycles and three girlchildren on website (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 10024 AM, May 21 at 0650, S3/S5 with a trace of modulation; broadcast spur? Klingenfuß shows numerous South American `Air` SSBs on 10024. Besides Lima, EiBi shows only Tegucigalpa, Honduras, ``COCESNA Cenamer Control``, never specifying AM or SSB mode for anything (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 21530, May 20, Chinese? S3/S5, OSOB. Nothing in latest HFCC; Aoki & Eibi show Sound of Hope 21529.7 and CNR1/Firedrake jammer but not between 13 and 23. Not off-frequency so very likely jammer from western ``China`` such as East Turkistan to be propagating way over here mostly day path (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) {Time missing the first time from this, the point being that it was at 1517!} cf CHINA This report dispatched at 2315 UT May 21

** ALGERIA. 17600, May 20 at 1752, NO signal from Ifrikya FM into UTwente, apparently off; it still gets 11935 Sa`udi buzzroar, q.v. No 15160 either. 17599.998 is however on by next check 1811, S7/S9 in French, no 15160. 1821 brief break in transmission during music. 1823 several more and stays off till 1824.5. Of course I am hunting for a floating English segment if they can stay on air. After music, 1837 into English with FM frequencies, but who cares about SW? 1838 Zoom Africa, ``guh-reetings to you``, she starts. About IT innovations 20-22 May event in Algiers. Besides some overmodistortion, her pace and accent are a bit of an obstacle and the musical background is annoying; 5G networks, etc. 1842 already wraps up referring us to various web platforms for more. 1843 other announcer about this multi-national exhibition on agriculture, livestock. 1844 back to music-only. 17600 & 15160 are the onlies registered in HFCC every hour from 06 to 19; then 17600 & 13790 at 19-22; 13790 & 15110 at 22-03; 9500 & 9700 at 03-06. That`s it. Béchar at 131 degrees is on 15110, 9500, 17600. Others are ``Ourgla`` at 210 degrees. Béchar, in the NW corner of Algeria next to Morocco, is more favorable for us directly off the back = 311 degrees NW. WRTH spells the other, SSE of Algiers, Ouargla, which searching immediately confirms is correct. Could also be transliterated from Arabic as Wargla -- the ``Ou`` being the French version of W, oui2. Aoki goes with Ourgla, EiBi both as alternatives (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1120 kHz, May 20 at 1520-1530+ UT, NO signal from KETU, 10 kW Spanish daytimer, Catoosa (Tulsa). If on, it would certainly be audible by groundwave. It`s been sporadic in the past. I still have a JBA carrier on 1110, more likely KFAB Omaha NE remnant than closer KVTT Mineral Wells (Metroplex) TX. When it was newer years ago, I visited the 1120 site: gleaming steel towers, no red or white paint (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Sunday evening May 19 into UT Monday May 20: Four major OKC TVs in wall-to-wall storm/tornado coverage all evening till circa local midnight. CBS KWTV ``9`` shunted 60M to KSBI ``52``. Some of them got live video of tornados in the dark during lightning flashes. Again Enid lucked out, but OKC area hit and also north of here. If anyone would like to experience what we do, I imagine that KFOR, KOCO, KWTV, KOKH are also streaming. We got hail for 5+ minutes. Damage inspexion next morning sees two guywires loose on the rooftop TV antenna yet it`s still erect. Need to go up there and secure them. More storms coming this week and next; happy May! (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, May 20 at 1750, still 1845, 1921, horrible buzzroaring from Riyadh, no program audio, S9/+5 into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.010, Sunday May 19 at 2200, VOT English not off the air, S9+30/45 into UTwente and I don`t even bother to check it direct. UTw displays frequencies to the hundredth of one Hz, where they are never stable. This is mostly in the top half of the .009 to .010 range so rounding it upward tho never surpasses .010 as I am watching. Some editors do not understand how to do this, rather lopping off all the digits right of the decimal, can`t be bothered with precision! Ms. Badax presents the news. 2217 song starts, ``Time for your letters`` -- what?? I must be imagining as the song is really in Türkiyesh! 2220 brief item about May 19 being a holiday, start of Atatürk`s independence revolution in 1919y, now celebrated as his ``Youth and Sports Day``. 2222 L`Box theme axually starts. Usual friendly host rushes thru more QSL requests than usual from: ``Litonia`` i.e. Latvia but the name sounds more Lithuanian? He has trouble making out their postal address. Then Italy, India, another India, Pakistan, Klepov in Moscow, Pakistan, India, NC/USA, Germany, India same person as before, India same person for 3rd time: how many letters do they send every week? Finally Fiji for the first time from someone with an Indo-Portuguese name. 2238 out of time so play another song. 2242 finally L`box outro, multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2244 music. 2252 Badax headlines, or rather repeating at some length the holiday item, and about Georgia. 2255 s/off as if the 1230 on 17620. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2255.5 IS, 2256 pause and restart IS with German ID, something`s always erroneous at Emirler, but chopoff at 2257.3* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed Sunday May 13 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1322.995 kHz, S9 into UTwente, nothing on 918 or 207 kHz: do they ever test/turn those on? Also on WRN Europe webcast, and WRMI webcast-only. Also confirmed at 2158 the 2130 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975, S9+5 and 6160 S9+10, into UTwente. ``Good evening Glen[n], I was listening to "Wavescan" tonight on 7570 kHz (2300 UT, Sunday). Upon completion, there was a station ID and then the current "World Of Radio" broadcast was aired. I listened to the entire show until 0000 UT. S meter readings on my recently calibrated Hammarlund HQ-145AC were 20db over S9. Truly 55555. I guess this was a bonus airing? I enjoy having both shows ("Wavescan" and "WOR") back to back in the evening. Hank Blackwood, Dalton, GA`` I see both are now on the System D sked, instead of Argentina on weekends, so hope there to stay for a while; aims across NAm at 315 degrees like 5850, where WOR was dropped. Am glad to be on 7570!, tnx, Jeff. Also confirmed UT Monday May 20 at 0041 the 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+15 into Querétaro SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday May 20 from 0301 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -70 Hz = 6159.930, S9/+15 into NH SDR. Next: 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [irregular]; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 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; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated, by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. Thanks this week to Sheldon Harvey, Québec who sent a box of equipment. One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds, via PayPal to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [non]. 3955, May 19 at 2300, special test of `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot` via Channel 292, GERMANY, good S9+15 into UTwente, while // 9670 is JBA as to be expected that close in nightmiddle. Worried, as previous music program was breaking up/overmodulated/distorted but UBMP OK. Seems that rather than music, at least 50% of the hour is talk, interviewing two musical guests, as I am distracted by tornado warnings west of Enid; see OKLAHOMA. Bill Tilford advises about next shows: ``Uncle Bill's Melting Pot, 15 June 2024 as follows: A. 1700-1800 UT on 9670 Beam E-F (best for South Asia remote listeners) B. Repeat: 1900-2000 UT on 3955 & 6070 kHz C. Repeat: 2300-2400 UT on 3955 (best for East Asia remote listeners) June's program will feature music from Haiti and the Dominican Republic. [and one week earlier: From the Isle of Music] All on Radio Channel 292 from Germany. Both shows honor reception reports using kiwi SDRs PROVIDED that which SDR is specified and the entire hour's content is reported with details (the entire hour rule will be strictly enforced beginning in June). Reception reports can be sent to tilfordproductions@gmail.com`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 21530, May 20, Chinese? S3/S5, OSOB. Nothing in latest HFCC; Aoki & Eibi show Sound of Hope 21529.7 and CNR1/Firedrake jammer but not between 13 and 23. Not off-frequency so very likely jammer from western ``China`` such as East Turkistan to be propagating way over here mostly day path (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 1925 UT May 20

** ASCENSION [and non]. 21645, Sunday May 19 at 1450, JBA carrier, almost the OSOB except for another JBAC on 21485. Aoki & EiBi show 21645 BBC Saturday only in Hausa at 13-17; surely for stupid ballgames. I guess if there were one on Sunday instead they would have to turn it back on. 21485 is R. Tamazuj via FRANCE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15140 & 11760, Sunday May 19 at 1501, NO signals direct from RHC instead of weekly Esperanto; nor at 1520 into Maryland SDR. Nor hit on any known frequency before 1500 in multi-bandscan. Something`s always wrong at RHC. By 1900, 15140 is on opening English hour but VP S3/S5 into Maryland, no 11760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday May 19 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, following fruitcake-for-Xmas promo, Ian ID, S9/+5 with jamming underaudible into Peoria SDR; into Bonaire where it`s aimed at 0015, S7/S9 with heavier jamming but still copiable. Also confirmed UT Sunday May 19 at 0337, on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S7/S8 into Peoria IL SDR with heavy storm noise, about 12 minutes into, so started circa 0325. Next: 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy; 2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW; 0830 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 6160; 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [irregular]; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 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; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated, by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. Thanks this week to Sheldon Harvey, Québec who sent a box of equipment. One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds, via PayPal to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5050, May 19 at 0604 and still 0645, S9+25/35 open carrier/dead air. Surely it`s WRMI-4, forgot to turn off after only times on skedgrid, 01-04 Legends. Aoki shows 02-05, presumably leftover winter timing. Something`s odd at Okeechobee. And would you believe current Aoki as of 5/18/24 still lists totally defunct WWRB on 5050 at 22-13 on days 127 only = Sun/Mon/Sat?? Dave Frantz died in Aug 2021, but station survived a bit longer; last? log of it I had was Dec 12, 2021, testing on 3360 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1955 UT May 19

** CHINA. 13690, May 18 at 2219, algo music and talk, S9/+10 with flutter. Could it be NZ? Not until much later. Per EiBi it`s CRI in Spanish to S Europe at 21-23, also Mandarin at 20-21 from site s - which means Shijiazhuang 723 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 28228 CW, May 18 at 2206, EEEEEEE DE ZL3TEN/B plus a longer message not copied, the OBOB = only beacon audible on band. A bit of USB further up, Spanish on 28340. The W.G.B. 10M Beacon List: ``28228 ZL3TEN - Rolleston, Christchurch NZL RE66ej - #0 (09 Jan 2024) Note: ID + grid + eee``. QRZ.com: ``If you are hearing our beacon we would like to know. ZL3TEN has been on air for 14 years 28.228 MHz. [power??] The Christchurch VHF DX Group consists of a small team of enthusiastic VHFers wishing to promote the world above 10 meters. We have just upgraded antenna to a half wave, which is mounted much higher so you may get a better signal. 73 Ross ZL3ADT ZL3RJ`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PUERTO RICO. 11688 & 11981 approx., May 18 at 2222 fast and loud RTTY, both reportedly NAU Isabela. Had not heard both simultaneously so thought maybe single transmitter, one or the other. INTRUDERS discouraging any legitimate AM broadcasters near either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Sat May 18 at 2200, REE continues in Spanish, not English. Someone recently said English was on M/W/F/Sat. I had not been checking on Sats and their online program sked did not show English at 0000 local double-daylight-time on Sundays, but there`s nothing like making a firm dis/confirmation by monitoring. While I`m at it, 17855 is VG direct, 15520 good, 17715 poor, and 15390 is *still* missing, no beam south into Africa. Something`s nonfunxional at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sat May 18 at 2200, no signal direct from VOT English for us, nor at 2221, while simulEnglish from Romania 11800 manages to be JBA, tho always weaker than VOT. To be sure, at 2230 checking UTwente, no signal on 11785, nor on possible overrun 9875. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. I give the exact frequency since when it has been on recently it`s always +9 Hz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday May 18 from a few sex before 0400 on WTWW, 5085, VG direct due west. I`m still not certain of any direxional lobes from their rhombic antenna. ID just before WOR claimed 100 kW on 9475 & 5085. Also confirmed Saturday May 18 at 1453 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001, S6/S7 JBA into UTwente rather than usual solid signal; propagation? ``WOR DX program on 6160 kHz today the 18th May 2024 via SW Gold Radio in Germany at 14:40 UTC+ Reception report from Finland via Kiwi sdr in Tampere owned by the local dxers -- using horizontal Loop antenna for 80m. Nice reception SINPO 44444 -- S7+ on an average. Just good - it´d be great to receive your QSL as a verification - many thanks in advance. I put some sound clips for you as testimony. [eight 1 or 2 MB wav files] 73, Kari Kallio Lahti Finland EU`` Sorry, I had to disappoint him as I don`t have a QSL, leaving that to stations carrying the program. Confirmed at 1733 on 6160 with S9 + 15 dB and 3975 with S7 via SWR on Upper Bavarian Kiwi. Fine audio. http://sdr-bayern.spdns.de:8073/?f=6160.00amz6 Mini-Dick antenna at UTwente still deaf. Background noise about S7. Lesley Illingworth reporting`` Also confirmed Saturday May 18 at 1732 via UTwente: SW Gold Radio, 6160.000 S7/S9 and one word behind on 3975.002, S7/S8. Also confirmed Saturday May 18 from *1958 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, VG on groundwave into nearby SDR, the nominal 1930 starting late after TIAWR. Recently the max span for this WOR is roughly 1900/2030. Next: 0000 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 0230vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0500]; 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy; 2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW; 0830 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 6160; 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [irregular]; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 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; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.
