** CHINA. 21490, Aug 13 at 2203, JBA carrier is the OSOB and thus also
the SSOB, i.e. CNR1 jammer, which might run 34 minutes short of 24 hpd
per Aoki with Sound of Hope hours 1526-1500.

Also JBA carrier on 18970 and another on 18965. Aoki shows only 18970
starting at 2200 the same radio war. None audible 24h later (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Aug 14 at 0651, S9+20/25 of dead air in Spanish from R.
Rebelde;  ho, hum, something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 15245.0, Aug 14 at 1512, JBA algo. Since it`s not
off-frequency, must not be VOK as sked in English around 15245.2;
rather CRI English via Kashgar also sked, Commies vs Commies! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 7340, Aug 14 at 1522, JBA carrier into UTwente. No signal
direct nor into Canary SDR nor on 13735. Should be Mini Transat marine
weather as heard past two days. Wolfgang Büschel, Germany was hearing
7340 only at 1505, S9+5 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUATEMALA. TGAV Radio Verdad has been off the air since 5 December
2020, but would you believe it`s still in Aoki? I have been in contact
with Dr Madrid, whose digital clox keep failing, but he says they do
not depend on WWVB.

``We miss your 4-MHz signal. I guess you have no plans to resume it? I
hope you have realized by now that nothing comes of the ``worldwide``
SW signal satellite relay deal. Best wishes, Glenn Hauser`` - his
reply August 14:

``Now, referring to our short wave station Radio Truth International
on 4055 khz, we have discarded our satellite project, and have
returned to the conventional short wave radio. We are expecting to
receive in Guatemala a new and modern 1200 watt transmitter
constructed at Frankfurt, Germany. This is a computerized transmitter,
quite modern. The transmitter was sent to the United States already,
in order to set our 4055 Khz frequency, and will be sent to Guatemala
these days. We plan to return to the air quite soon. We hope so. Thank
you very much. Your radio friend, Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid, Radio
Truth International`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORWAY [and non]. 18127 USB, Aug 14 at 2209, only phone contact on
band now, US station KG4GTN, Jack in Florida, asks, ``how are things
in Niue?``, or so it sounded which got my attention. His JBA QSOer was
LA4###. Never could catch his complete call, but DXheat.com has the
answer: on 18127 USB at 2210 was LA4UOA, with another QSO. Then
uplooked in QRZ.com:

``LA4UOA Norway flag Norway, Torgeir "TOR" Strisland, Strislandsveien
110, 4525 KONSMO. 4525 Norway`` with lots of photos of his homemade
tower, and:
``KG4GTN USA flag USA, JACK V OLSON, 16410 Nolen Rd, DADE CITY, FL
33523, USA`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1170, Aug 13 at 2216 UT, just noting that
despite conversion to KOTV AM, Tulsa still running IBOC noise peaking
1183 and 1157, the lower QRMing poor KSL SLC also at night, which to
boot has a poor signal unlike the good old days, 50 kW CC ND around
only 800 miles like WJR 760 Detroit. However, KSL cannot complain
since per new NRC AM Log, both it and KOTV are still IBOC. It probably
impedes KOTV out west with noise peak about 1173. But circumUtah, who
cares about local Tulsa news? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PANAMA. 28159.5 CW, Aug 14 at 2203, VVV DE HP1RIS/B and longer

11940 CRI English this hour only via Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems (Glenn

S9+20/30 direct, and also audible or detectable on 17715, 15520,
15390. Preview topic to be the 70th anniversary of some ``gag law``
reforms which are now being reconsidered, interview with someone from
Amnesty International (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.004+, Aug 13 at 2158, VOT English not off the air
with IS, 2200 s/on ignoring SW, S9+10 direct vs S9 local noise level.
Into UTwente at 2232 when measured, S9+35/45 with Efsun the
accentuated, never could figure out the subject, music. 2244
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2250 `Turkey`s Geomarked
Products`` by accentuated OM, finally understood the subject as
weaving. Alan Holder says presenter of this is Evran Genç. More and
more they seem to introduce selves, but understanding names is still
difficult. 2253 s/off again ignoring SW, something`s always awry at
Ankara; and IS to 2256* just in time to avoid German (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 13 at 2158, and later 2203, 2212 chex direct, NO
signal from VOT English. Nor circa 2245 into UTwente, nor on previous
goofs 9875, 11795. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Propagation is back to normal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Aug 14 at 0640, gospel huxter in English, S9+20/30,
WRNO on extended sked. Not heard this late for many weeks in nightly

recently heard them earlier in Hindi? unlogged (Glenn Hauser, OK,

UNIDENTIFIED. 15150, Aug 14 at 1511, algo JBM at S3/S5. HFCC shows
nothing here between 1220 and 1700, just Romania, Iran, France
elsewhen. It`s WMLK`s frequency but surely not now, rather 0400-0900
except Sabbathdays. Even less in Aoki, and in EiBi nothing but WMLK

** FRANCE. 13735, Aug 13 at 1534, S5/S9 of pop music fill, weather
info portion already over from Mini Transat; 1558 quick sendoff,
``Have a nice day``, ``à demain``, bit more music to 1559.7*. As heard

UNIDENTIFIED. 891 kHz, Aug 13 at 0640, JBA het against WLS, presumably
ALGERIA. No other X9/kHz carriers found, checking mainly SPAIN
frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2329 UT August 13

** ALGERIA. 17600, Aug 12 at 2202 & 2207, Ifrikya FM still on the air
past nominal 2200* and JBA direct despite major geomag storm (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Aug 12 at 0423 RHC English still running later than
usual, S9+25/35 direct and VG modulation, show is `Sustainably
Speaking` about agriculture, M&W alternating, seems apolitical, soon
into next program, Economic Report. Meanwhile the nominal English
frequency 6000 is JBA carrier only, and 15230 is also on at S9+5/15
with dead air! Something`s always wrong at RHC. Same at 0437 recheck.
Hope 9700 be off before NZ come up! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 7340 // 13735, Aug 12 at 1513-1559.7*, Issoudun with French
and heavily accented English weather info for sailboat race. I`m
checking following this in BDXC-UK Communication, first report I`ve
seen this year about MiniTransat: ``13735 1505 MiniTransat Sailing,
France. Maritime wx, OM, FF, EE // 7340 333 24/07 GS = Gabby Simmonds
Worcester Sony ICF-2001D, MLA-30+``

13735, from 1458 past 1500, NO signal at all direct. Propagation very
degraded with little else on band outside USA. So by 1513 I`m tuned to
UTwente where 13735.001- is audible poorly at S7/S8, as to be expected
at short skip distance, much better on 7340.000- at S9+5/10, YL in
heavily accented English with weather info, foneticizing e.g. NNW as
November November Whisky. Mixed with French and hard to tell when
she`s switching languages. 1522 ``that`s all the weather today`` and
over to OM in French, seems like race standings. 1529 music bits. 1530
she`s back talking about Olympix, medal counts, etc. 1532 familiar
``Nuits de Paris`` song, not sure of proper title; and many other
songs filling out the hour. First several minutes would play a tune
for only a minute or so, fade it down, and start another; must be a
very impatient DJ. Chopoff at 1559.7*

But which race is this for? The big one with SWx broadcasts like this,
La Boulangère Mini Transat, does not appear to be in progress now nor
in July. In fact this website
https://minitransat.fr/
has nothing about this year, but lots about 2023, when arrival dates
ranged from November 8 to 18. That`s the one from France to Canarias
and then to Guadeloupe. This site shows many other races including
some starting 19 July, 18 and 24 August; I wonder which and how many
merit SW broadasts:
https://www.classemini.com/?mode=courses

These two entries in today`s HFCC update could be a clue, note
effective dates:
7340 1500 1600 27W,36,37W ISS 250 266 0 146 1234567 120724 250824 D

also in EiBi without datespans, not Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 9700, Aug 12 at 0608, Britishish English, presumed RNZ
now, risking RHC collision if on later than last check in its English
at 0437 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Aug 12 at 0613 UT, instead of Olds from NewsOn6,
KOTV Tulsa with 10-second loops of 3 seconds of tone and ``This is the
TSN? Dallas Cowboy Channel``. Nobody paying attention at this sorry
excuse for a 50 kW clear channel station, demoted to TV audio when
they get around to it. Unclear how an unused offtopic satellite
channel could get plugged into on the air (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Aug 12 at 2200, token English from SNR is a JBA
carrier direct to here! Extremely unusual due to major geomagnetic
storm. Slightly better on 15520 off the back at 2207 and the others
17715 & 15390 JBA carriers. By UTwente check at 2227, all are JBA.
Here`s why:

** TURKEY. 11785.010-, Sun Aug 11 at 2158, VOT not off the air,
S9+25/35 into UTwente, not checked direct, with IS, ID. 2200 s/on as
if the 1230 on 17620. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2201 olds by
Efsun the accentuated. 2217 ending sports, and multi-lingual ID filler
reel. 2219 music. Slightly distorted due to overmodulation. 2224
`Weekly Analysis` about Israel genocide against Palestinians in Gaza,
by John Hunter?, foreign policy researcher, in Jeddah? Not sure of
those names. 2229 music. 2232 `Letterbox` finally starts with host
Halil, who is OK, but weather is hot and humid, 30-33 degrees, yet in
a couple [?] months it will be freezing cold in Ankara.

First, reception report from Siddartha --- in India, asking how many
tigers are there in Turkey? None, except in zoos. Pakistani wants QSL.
Another from Siddartha. Another Pak reports on Spanish broadcast, tnx
for QSL, Halil is glad to know since some don`t get theirs in the
mail. Terry Downson?, Australia, 9875 report, gets up early to hear
it. Jayanta Chakroborty, India. Someone from SE Poland. Rimantas --
from ``Letonia`` reception report: Rimantas is a Lithuanian, not
Latvian name, but Letonia means Latvia; confused them? Anatoly Klepov,
Moscow, wants QSL as usual. Does not know he`s the editor of RUS-DX?
Andrei -- in Tomsk. Another from ``Letonia``. Time`s up at 2245. 2246
``Dear listeners, bye-bye, I love all of you`` and fill music *before*
the `L`Box` outro plays at 2250.5. 2251 headlines, leading with Israel
massacres 100 Palestinians. 2254 s/off of 17620. 2254.7 IS once and
off*, finesse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 12 at 2159, VOT English a JBA carrier direct. By
2227 check into UTwente, only JBA, incredible. At least we can tell
they are not off the air, so not TRT`s fault, rather major geomag
storm: see WWV report under SPAIN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non?]. 7460, Aug 12 at 0427 African language at S9+25/30,
stronger than 7435 Martí via Grimesland, 0430 drop to dead air, no ID
and off at 0430.45*. HFCC Aug 12 still shows this as VOA BOTSWANA in
Kin, 100 kW at 350 degrees, not exactly favorable for us, as I suspect
a NC substitution. 7435 also has a `hollow` sound, perhpaps due to
prop disturbance, different beamangle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

IN AMERICA, `LIBERAL` IS THE NEW MAINSTREAM

https://open.substack.com/pub/michaelmoore/p/in-america-liberal-is-the-new-mainstream

This report dispatched at 0336 UT August 13

** AUSTRALIA. 10125 USB, Aug 11 at 0645, two Oz hams S4/S5 discussing
equipment. Mentioning Sydney, and Damian? name of one of them? This
time at 0652 IDs without fonetix sound like VK2XZL and VK2AKP.
QRZ.com:

``VK2XZL Australia flag Australia, GI SCLANDERS, 49 WARRAH RD, YOWIE

``VK2AKP/SK2024 Australia flag Australia, SILENT KEY SILENT KEY,
Saviour "Sam" GALEA, 57 FAIRVIEW ROAD, CANLEY VALE, NS 2166,

So one of them is deceased. Possibly miscopied one of the letters? Can
also search QRZ.com by names: there are 394 Damians, worldwide!
including 8 in Australia, but none with similar calls.

In late-night bandscanning I always check this frequency, but first
time any phone heard again in ages. Jan 16 at 0756 a QSO in
non-English, German? unID Ozzies last heard Aug 29, 2023 at 0647. I
never hear any other voices on this band.

This is of particular interest, to me, anyway, since the 29m ``30m``
hamband is supposedly for CW/digital modes only, not phone, but
Australia apparently makes an exception (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 9670, Aug 11 at 0350, Texas R SW test with `YROT`
versions, via Channel 292, only S3/S5 and noisy direct = SINPO 25232.
Insufficient for easy listening over here. Others report better
results; it was aimed toward western N America. Station claims 10 kW
transmitter power contrary to 1 kW license (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 7275 & 6165, Aug 11 at 0340 into UTwente, VOT English
missing from both frequencies, as it was for the previous 2200

erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2255 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Saturday August 10 at 0330 ex-0400 on WTWW 5085. I was listening at
0300 and heard WOR start to play for a few seconds, but then cut to an
hour of harmonious gospel music; no WOR at 0330, and chopped off the
air at 0357* before WOR could appear at previous time. Evidently
George`s timechange was not implemented by Bob Biermann, who later
told me that would not be convenient. The ``attack`` on George may
have contributed to the lack of coördination. Who knows what may
happen next week? Then I hear from George on the phone Aug 10 around
1840 UT. He`s hurting but able to keep running WTWW. Hopes to get the
other transmitter going next week with separate programming; he told
me previously, 9930 daytime, 5910 or 5920 nighttime, not 5830. 9475 on
the air again normally at 2235 Aug 10, anticipating WOR at 2300.

Confirmed Saturday August 10 at 0950 the 0930 on WRMI 9455, S9+20/25
direct.

Confirmed Saturday August 10 at 1450 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 6160.000+, S7/S9 and noisy into UTwente.

** U S A. Latest on the WTWW situation: see WORLD OF RADIO report

UNIDENTIFIED. 890 kHz, Aug 10 at 0430, the Fuerteventura, Canary
Islands SDR is getting a JBA signal here hetting 891 Algeria - the
reverse of what I hear in OK. 890 has to be from the Americas, perhaps
the 200? kW Cuban, or the closest Brazilian, 20/10 kW R. Tamandaré in
Olinda, Pernambuco, ZYI772. Would you believe that mwlist does not
specify the STATE of each ZY entry? It`s a huge country and that would
be like eliminating states from USA listings - the most informed
American would never be able to know the state for every little town
with a radio station - and many town names are duplicated in several
states. So I had to look in WRTH 2024 which does show the states. BTW,
Tamandaré sounds familiar: was it also on SW long ago? I had been
checking this remote for TWR Benin, a weak signal on 1566, and not
much on 1476.

As to the het from 891 I hear against 890 WLS, presumably Algeria,
note this at almost the same time today:
https://groups.io/g/IRCA/topic/107820942
``889 & 891, 4:23am #42486 -- When there's a 1 kHz heterodyne against
890 the usual guess is 891 Algeria. This may not always be the case.
See if there is also a carrier present on the low side at
approximately 889. The 889/891 pair, as illustrated below, is most
likely from a Progreso Cuba outlet. Inline image -- 890 on the plot is
R. Progreso Cuba dominant. Usual crummy audio.
Plot from PEI SDR screen a few minutes ago, ~0400 UTC.

Not now nor ever so far have I noticed anything on 889, but shall be
on lookout for it. Then at 0625 Aug 10 direct with the DX-398 I get an
891 bearing of NE rather than SE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 4940, Aug 10 at 0637, JBA signal here, always presumed
to be Estación 4940 or Onda Corta 4940, thought to transmit from Apure
area in southern Venez. Most nights this late there is no signal
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
