Hauser
** CUBA. 15230, Oct 18 at 2219, dead air at S3/S7, maybe trace of JBM?
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15440.00, Oct 18 at 2223, choral song in minor key, then SE
Asian Indonesianish talk, listed as KSDA in Sundanese alternate days
with English, S9/+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH.. 15245.41 approx., Oct 18 at 2220, wobbling
off-frequency carrier, presumably perpetual VOK (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO. 6200, Oct 18 at 0656, S7/S8 carrier, silent, or trace of
mod? From presumed pirate Hikari FM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 18 at 0645 UT, NDB in Stillwater, SW, is
JBA: reconfirmed on, but nowhere near the signal it once had (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Oct 18 at 2208, token English from SNR, feature
after news is interview about Spanish philosopher José Ortega y algo
on anniversary of his death. Still VG signal direct (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 18 at 2210, VOT English not off the air,
S9+10/30, but only fair direct, 2214.7 `Review of Turkish Press`
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Oct 18 at 0645, FBY, NDB in Fairbury NE, is JBA
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 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, I did hear 5850, 9395, confirming WOR #2212, WRMI:
5850, 0133, 0146, 0159 (55433), October 14 UTC 2023 [Sat]
9395, 2330, 2346 (45443), 2359, October 17 UTC 2023 [Tue]
73’s, Richard, October 18, 2023 10:49 am``

Confirmed Tuesday October 17 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+35 into
Missouri SDR.

Confirmed Wednesday October 18 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -74 Hz = 7489.926,
S9/+12 into Maryland SDR. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW

No new contributions to acknowledge this week, in US funds but not
necessarily, via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com

Or MO, check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Oct 18 at 1511, World`s Last Chance Radio on WBCQ-6,
in pseudo-scientific discussion of how the earth is flat, as looking
at the stars surely confirms, Polaris visible in the south, the stars
being very nearby in the firmament. So ridiculing them as ``Flat
Earthers`` is still very much appropriate. Allan Weiner would never do
that but often reminds us he is a ``man of science`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, Wed Oct 18 at 0654, WWCR-4 is on with unID gospel
huxter, not // 5850 WRMI so not TOMBS. This transmitter had been on
overnight only on UT Sat & Sun for TOMBS. WWCR-4 on 5890 could be on
anytime between 02 and 12. For axual scheduling, rather than 24/7
registered availability, we must look instead at the program
schedules.
The Oct 1 version still claims 5890 is OFF THE AIR, M-F 12-7 am
Central, misconverted to UT as 06-13 rather than 05-12. Could it be
something sked on another transmitter? NO, 5935 has University
Network, not that. 4840 is TOMBS, and 3215 is supposed to be OFF just
like 5890, altho I did not recheck 3215 at this time.

WWCR has already added B23 transmitter schedules, in two steps, the
first week Oct 29-Nov 5 while USA be still on DST; and then Nov 6
onward, off DST. Same old frequencies, but shifts in changeover times
for a few of them. 5890 will be available at 03-13 UT. On this xmtr
page it appears they get the CT/UT conversions correct, unlike on the
programming pages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, Oct 18 at 2226, RCC discussion in English, so WEWN is
back on; was AWOL last time I checked. S9+10 with squeal (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Oct 18 at 1512 UT, YL DJ on KLEY Wellington KS with
slogan in passing as ``The Wave``, NOT ``Red Dirt Country`` as in
2023-2024 NRC AM Log, and rock rather than country (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 18 0657, S4/S5 talk from R. Vanuatu still here,
vanishes sometime after 0658. I don`t think they make any retuning
announcement, do they? Leaving listeners hanging unless they be
DXer-like, in the know (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search October 18 at
0111-0120 UT. This time on the NRD-545 which doesn`t tune in 9-kHz
steps - or if it can, I don`t know how; rather than the IC-R75, so I
have to manually go in USB to 1 kHz below some of them, and do get
some hits, not in exact order tuned: 684, 711, 774-2 beating, 855,
891, 909-strongest, 999-2, 1053, 1107 kHz. Likely from Spain, Western
Sahara, Algeria, UKQOGBANI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15299.87 approx., Oct 18 at 1514, JBA carrier direct as
I am checking for MiniTransAt. At 1521 I check UTwente, but it has an
S7 open carrier right on 15300.000 but rough. Was it a birdie? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 362 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0611 UT, dash and SB, 500 watt ND
beacon at Greater Sudbury, Ont.

346 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0714 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watt NDB at Sioux
Lookout, Ont. Tough copy but must be this regular (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Oct 17 at 2150, R. Cairo is on, YL talking English?
but distorted, S9+20 direct --- but 2152 drops to dead air.
Something`s amiss at Abis and/or cutoff at Cairo (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** GUAM. 15320, Oct 17 at 2158, open carrier with some hum, S7/9+10
direct; 2200 AWR theme, s/on in English mentions language on 15320 but
can`t copy it. Then heard ``Suara`` so Indonesian-related?

Aoki says ``Nga``, abbr. for what? EiBi says ``NJ`` to INS =
Indonesia, and his readme says ``NJ Ngaju Dayak: Indonesia-Borneo
(0.9m)[nij]``; WRTH UD under USA:AWR just calls it Dayak (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6200.00, Oct 17 at 0645, S7/S8 open carrier, presumably
Hikari FM, pirate still testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7300.09 approx., Oct 17 at 0640, JBA S7/S9 talk
probably sermon from the hamish pirate heard before only on UT Sundays
but this is Tuesday. Nothing from another one now on 7320 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785+, Oct 17 at 2200, VOT on the air, VG S9+20/30 direct
in English, some distortion during music. 2218 ``always-by-your-side``
promo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKQOGBANI. 15245, Oct 17 at 1327, no signal yet from Woofferton,
rather just barely audible carrier off-frequency, no doubt VOKorea.
This is for the one-hour special from 1330 marking the 80th
anniversary of Woofferton. 17785 eastward is on already with Encompass
IS. Back to 15245 at 1330, now it`s on aimed USward with no het or
other QRM, SINPO 45444 or S9/+20, so I listen mainly to it but 17785
is almost as good with a bit more fading. This on the NRD-545 with
100-ft E/W longwire; but heard the last few minutes sufficiently on
DX-398 portable with telescopic antenna only.

After sign/on, at 1331-1348, monolog by Dave Porter with great detail
about all the different transmitters the WOF site has used over the
years, concluding with RIZ from Croatia capable of DRM. 1348 asking
for reports to radio@encompass.tv for special eQSL and chance to win
something in a drawing. Then we hear voices of a number of other
current or former engineers and other staff; including at 1352 G8XYJ.
1358 the first YL voice, office manager; interspersed with more QSL
requests. 1402 Lilliburlero. At 1412 starts playing IS/IDs of: VOA
signing off with Yankee Doodle Dandy, London Calling, Bow Bells, RCI,
NHK, DW, RFE/RL Praha, B-B-C- chime notes, RNW. The same sequence
repeats over and over and over again until cut off the air at 1430
during NHK with no further announcements. Quite nice nostalgia, and
congrats to WOF. The WORLD OF RADIO iogroup was also flooded with
reports on this. It would have been nice if defunct sites, Rampisham,
Skelton had received similar treatment on their anniversaries (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0704 UT, ND beacon SYZ, new one for
me, 25 watts at Shelbyville IL. Same frequency where recently heard
AA, Fargo/Harwood ND, but dxinfocentre.com places it in Minnesota
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Tuesday October 17 at 0030 on WRMI 9395; rather rock music from before
0030 continues; Legends? I asked Jeff White about this and the
off-and-on appearance of WOR UT Mondays at 0030 on 7780. He says these
are subject to pre-emption for specials and should both be on next week.

Confirmed UT Tuesday October 17 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+12 into
Louisiana SDR starting with that 14-second uteblast override.

Also confirmed Tuesday October 17 at 1326 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9
direct. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB
1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2211]
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

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Oct 17 at 0652,
obvious het direct from 711 kHz when tuned to 710, likely this as in
mwlist: ``AOE SNRT Al Idaâ Al Amazighia El Aaiún 24h Laâyoune=El Aaiún
300 kW languages: Tamazight (Berber), Tachelhit, Rifain, ar // 936``
--- AOE as country means Spanish West Africa - hardly anymore, rather
WESTERN SAHARA but occupied by MOROCCO imperialism, their station. At
this late hour, far more likely than lower-powereds further into Africa,
Europe, ME (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** EGYPT [non]. 9440, Oct 16 at 2217, no Cairo direct, just BBCWS in
English which is via USAGM Tinang, PHILIPPINES. Something`s amiss at
Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6200, Oct 16 at 0655, JBA carrier, probably Hikari
FM, the pirate in NW Mexico, which has been silent for quite a while.
First time I`ve heard a trace checking almost nightly. Now nothing
from other possible pirates on 7300v, 7320.

Then Ron Howard reports: ``[WOR] 6200 kHz. (pirate) testing again ---
6200 AM - For a long time I had not been hearing any Hikari FM
(pirate) signal and assumed he was having transmitter problems. Then
on both Oct 15 and 16, I heard an open carrier with good signal
strength (0450+ UT). Sent an email to the operator of Hikari FM,
inquiring if I was correct in assuming he was testing again. Here is
his reply, with the good news that he plans on returning to the air
before too long with actual audio. Ron (Calif.)

"Yes, I am having problems with my amplitude modulator. I need an
audio amplifier to modulate it. The previous modulator got very hot
and it was very inefficient which led to its failure. Right now the
setup is a modulation transformer and I am building a class E audio
amplifier. This setup allowed me to step up the power a little. The
carrier is on because I will be doing some testing and pretty soon
will be back on air with music. This is if all goes by plan. There is a
lot of new music that will be coming and another reformatting with
now separate time for electronic music and another time for Jpop.
Thank you very much for your support! Best regards."``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Oct 16 at 1955 UT, NO open carrier signal, no $
icon, so KOCD Okeene is finally turned off - but who knows whether
permanently this time (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local but useless TV signal
is *still* black and silent but at normal strength, Oct 16 at 1858 UT
check. Apparently there is no great demand for 3ABN and subnetworx; in
fact, I doubt many Enidians know it exist, or that it`s our very own,
should scantuning hit on it and save. Yet there are three 7DA churches
here, one of them in Spanish. 3ABN is on an upper tier ch 370 on
Optimum cable, likely directly off satellite rather than RF 17, as
it`s labeled -E, implying there be also a 3-hour delayed -W feed. Hmm,
before this went black there were crawlers warning of a change of
satellites. Online 3ABN program sked displays automatically in GMT
like my computer, including still rerunning `AWR360 Broadcast to
Baptism`, Saturdays at 1930, UT Thursdays at 0330 (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9955, Oct 16 at 0701, TOMBS still via WRMI,
but modulation is crackling; also with Cuban jamming. Tnx a lot!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Oct 16 at 2200, token English from SNR still
holding up VG direct, S9+20. 2207 feature is interview with an
Uruguayan author of a book about survivors of a plane crash in South
America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 16 at 2200, VOT English not off the air today,
in fact just as big a sig direct as 17855 Spain, S9+10/20, but
modulation somewhat distorted, worst during music at 2223. Heavy
accent only makes it worse. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
But 2256 check, already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Next airings of WORLD OF RADIO 2212:
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW]
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [NEW; also web-, phonecast; jammed?]

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 16 at 0656, R. Vanuatu ID in passing, S3/S4
direct, with some ACI from 9955 WRMI even with USB tuning. Cuts off
about 0658.7* for presumed QSY to 3945 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** BRAZIL. 5940.184, Oct 16 at 0214, JBA carrier presumed R Voz
Missionária; 5935 WWCR not too strong now. Not to be confused, I hope
with this: ``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)

** CUBA. 6000, Oct 16 at 0215, RHC dead air at S9/+10 or trace of JBM
presumably English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 9880, Oct 15 at 2212, Esperanto, so it`s CRI as
sked via Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs
and other Moslems. Note, it`s only Commies which speak Esperanto on
SW! with Cuba. What would Zamenhof say? He died on 14 April 1917y,
just missing the Bolshevik Revolutsiya. AFAIK not one gospel huxter
uses Esperanto: audience would be too smart (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Oct 15 at 0211, jazz at S6/S9, 0235 more
like soul vocal.

These reports say it was Two Dog Radio until 0219*
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,119544.0.html
followed by: Sycko Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,119547.0.html
and followed by a third one on same 6930 at 0253 I did not hear:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,119549.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4930.6, Oct 16 at 0003, JBA carrier direct, surely the new
station reported since Oct 6, on this frequency offset, R. Pitumarca,
Sicuani, via R. Surandina. But nothing there at 0018 when checked via
Bonaire SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 15 at 2211, NO signal from VOT into UTwente;
so per Craig Tyson`s advice, checking:

9875, the 2030-2130 English frequency which sometimes stays on thru
2300 --- There is something S9 locking on at 9875.003, but modulation
sounds like whispering, unreadable and can`t even guess the language.
Maybe that`s TRT. Or VOK in Mandarin, also sked this hour. No, this is
not splash from an adjacent, nothing on 9870 and 9880 has EAST
TURKISTAN, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 15 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+17 with
slight QRM from understation, Qur`an? so Iran sked until 2020. Also
confirmed on WRN to Europe webcast and WRMI webcast.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 16 at 0045 the 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S7/S9 into Bonaire SDR. This was not on last week so I removed it from
sked. Good thing I thought to recheck. So, what happens next week?

Also confirmed UT Monday October 16 at 0306 about 4 minutes into so
started circa 0302 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -68 Hz as displayed later
at 0354 by Maine SDR. Next:

0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW]
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [NEW; also web-, phonecast; jammed?]

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search: whoopee, the
`season` is back, able to detect a few on two receivers, three
different antennas; despite line and other noise levels, Oct 16 at
0231 on 855, 1044 and two beating on 1053. At 0247, 855 and 828. At
0305, 855 and 1053. Not making any airtight claims, but: 855 & 828
both have 100 kW Ethiopians. 855 more likely RNE Spain synchros. 1044
has 10 & 20 kW from Spain but 200 kW from Ethiopia. 1053 Talksport UK
synchros up to 500 kW, but also 50 kW Ethiopia -- the country common
to all 4 frequencies. WRTH 2023 has no sked info, but this would be
around 6 am local, likely to be on air and skipping out westward circa
sunrise. MWlist shows 828 // 855 // 1044 all R. Ethiopia, 24h. 1053
is R. Oromiya not until *0400, but Talksport is 24h.

Method: I scan the entire MW band with the new R75 set at 9 kHz steps,
USB tuning 1 kHz below each: thus, 1 kHz tones/hets on TA frequencies
stand out except of course those ending in -0 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1430 kHz, Oct 16 at 0233 UT, strong open carrier/dead
air dominating at S9+10, occasional dips to S9. No stations in OK or
nearby have favorable night patterns thisaway, but several ND day
patterns + failure to modulate make this intriguing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** BRAZIL. 3365.1, Oct 15 at 0017, JBA carrier direct. See previous
report of R. Cultura Araraquara special test definitely heard via
remote in Brasil on this offset frequency. Was to run until 0200;
recheck via Brasília at 0228, it`s off; to return nevermore? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 11820, UT Sun Oct 15 at 0023, Chinese opera, S9+10/20. Don`t
understand a word or note but nice to listen to for a while till
fading by 0040 to S7/8. I sure thought it was Mandarin, but listed as
CRI Cantonese this hour only to SE Asia from Xianyang 59 site (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5990, Oct 15 at 0046, dead air with some hum at S9+30/40 from
CRI relay; then, bits of mod trying to break thru: wiggle that
patchcord! Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Oct 15 at 0047, dead air at S9+20/40 with some hum;
something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. Hardly Chinese opera, but when that fades I`d better
check for pirates on Saturday night: 6950-USB, Oct 15 at 0049, S8/S9
sounds like oldtimeradio drama; distracted by another on 6955-USB, so
tuning forth and back. At 0051, 6950 is talking about SCOTUS as if in
a documentary. 0104 in music. Meanwhile I switch to real music on
Encore, 5850 WRMI, missing first few minutes. 0154 recheck, both
pirates off.
Many more reports of this as Zeeky Radio:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955-USB, Oct 15 at 0050, right next to another
pirate on 6950, music I would call ``trance``; 0056 cut to SSTV which
presumably contained an ID but not for me; 0057 back to music; 0103
announcement maybe attempt at ID but all I catch is ``listening to
me``. And over to WRMI 5850 for Encore. 0154 recheck, both pirates
off. Many more logs with SSTV images, but unID:

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11860, Oct 15 at 0040, huge loud hum, S7/8, obviously
the Republic of Yemen Radio transmitter which has been thus for
months; cannot hear any Cuban jamming against nothing under it. They
must be totally incompetent at site, but which? Aoki says Jeddah, EiBi
says Riyadh, HFCC says nothing, WRTH UD says Riyadh: the winner.
Perhaps Ed, the American ``navydude`` DXer who lives there, could clue
them in (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365 MCW kHz, Oct 15 at 0650, JBA non-Canadian beacon, or two
mixing, hard to differentiate, but I think I hear AA, which is 100
watts from Fargo/Harwood ND; heard before, last Feb 22. Many other
tantalizing NDB carriers vs the high line noise level (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. UT Aug 27, 2023 at 00-01 on WRMI 5950, Texas Radio Shortwave
presented recordings off WRNO air by Mick Delmage, Alberta of two
WORLD OF RADIO editions from 1986, #322 and #342 - almost complete,
the second one slightly short for time. Many thanks to Terry Colgan
for this recognition. A few weeks later, TRSW suddenly suspended
operations. I hope Terry is OK. Now available this nostalgia as
broadcast on WRMI:

A special QSL was offered, but should not be requested now from
listening to this. It may be viewed however at:

** U S A. 5050, Oct 15 at 0019, no signal from WRMI; still off at
0200, but rock music on 9455. Aoki shows 5050 at 22-04 with Legends,
EiBi at 01-04. WRMI Legends blox are more convoluted also involving
9395. Aoki has also failed to delete long-defunct WWRB from 5050
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Oct 15 at 0019, no signal from WTWW; I guess it
be irregular, not always starting at 2300 or even 0000. Next check
0200 it`s on, Biermann ID as Ancient Word Radio -- another AWR! and
Truth2Ponder saying next week expects to add live services from the
little church he founded in SW VA, and repeat in evening. Evidently
will mean reactivating 9475 at least on Sunday mornings (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
