 ** ALGERIA. 17600, Sept 7 at 1520, Ifrikya FM with guitar music, S5/S7 better than usual. I can also usually detect a JBA carrier around 0630 even if not much else propagating above 15 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA [and non]. Re 332 kHz MCW ND beacons. The RNA list omits QT, Thunder Bay, so apparently gone forever. Also shows only 25 watts for IC Wichita, logged as recently at 08-26; not 400 W as in dxinfocentre. ``Glenn, QT-332 was decommissioned on July 11, 2024 as part of Phase 12 of NAV Canada’s Modernization Program. Steve Howe, Saint Albans, VT`` -- that was my most reliable Canadian beacon after WG Winnipeg closed 248 kHz earlier. After that, YXL Sioux Lookout ON was regular on 346, but no sign of that yet either. It is still being reported on RNA list as of 2024-09-05 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, Sept 7 at 0559, S9+35/40 open carrier, obviously RHC not turned off yet. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, UT Sat Sept 7 at 0145, pirate song at S9. I bet it`s Ballsmacker Radio on very regular Friday-night sked. Yes: by 0147, I hear bowling strike sound (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6924.94 AM, Sept 7 at 0552, JBA carrier. Other logs as unID relay of WWV: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,133494.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Re 341 kHz, MCW ND beacon EI, EnId: RNA list shows 0 watts and last logged 2024-04-27 - but I was hearing it until a few days ago! Almost zero watts I could believe. In good old days others on 341 I got, even when EI was on, mixing: DNI Denison TX, 25 W, last logged 2024-03-10; and OIN, Oberlin KS, 25 W, last logged 2023-06-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 960, Sept 7 at 0616, local KGWA Enid again in dead air instead of C2CAM, S9+48. Did not attempt this time to pull some DX thru by nulling this signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.815 & 27224.48 AM, Sept 7 at 1522, S9 Enid CB pirate relaying 105.5 K288FX translator of 88.9 KYLV `K-Love` OKC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA [non]. 11935.792, Sept 7 at 1526, rapid chirping at S4/S5 direct, no Yemen programming audible under. Also at 1541 into UTwente when measured, S9+10/15. Had trouble synch-locking onto this exact frequency. Wolfgang Bueschel thinx it`s Iranian jamming from Sirjan site: ``SAUDI ARABIA / IRAN Radio war on 11935 kHz shortwave channel, between Yemen excile radio via Riadh bc shortwave center, and IRAN’s BUBBLE jammer irregularly on same channel via Sirjan bc center site. 11935.773 kHz peak signal of Yemen excile radio on upper flank, at 09.30 UT Saturday Sept 7th, S=9+10dBm fair signal into Doha Qatar remoted SDR access, ladies group Arabic singer performed at present, and Bubble signal underneath in Middle East target, slight downwards Riyadh signal traced on 11935.762 kHz now at 10.55 UT Sat Sept 7th. vy73 de wolfie df5sx wwdxc topnews`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2259 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday September 7 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, VG direct; after a second of false-start of some other program. After WOR at 0329 less than a minute of music before cutoff without ID or s/off announcement. The other WTWW still going on 5920. Also confirmed Saturday September 7 at 1452 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.000, S9+10/15 into UTwente. Also confirmed Saturday September 7 at 1735 the 1730 on SW Gold Radio, 3975.002+, S9+15/25, and 6160.001, S9+20 into UTwente, with ACI from 6165 CRI English Beijing site. Also confirmed Saturday September 7 at 1930 on WRN N America webcast; and on WRMI webcast-only. Also confirmed Saturday September 7 starting at 1958 the 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+16 into nearby SDR. Also confirmed Saturday September 7 at 2000 on WRN Europe webcast. Next: 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]; 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.

By MO or check on a US bank in US funds to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 Or via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (12160), Sat Sept 7, `The Talking Machine Show` is the only WWCR program we always listen to, Sats 1700-1730, via WWCR-2 webcast. It`s really mostly music, not talk! At 1720, Phil says the piece playing was recorded 102 years ago in 1912. Therefore, this program itself is a dekayear old. If any show can be ``evergreen``, this is it. But we wonder if any ``new`` ones are being produced (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2009 UT September 7

 ** BRAZIL. 11780, Sept 6 after 2200 as I am checking direct for 11785 TURKEY, RNA is gone again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 870 at 0650 UT and 1040 at 0652 Sept 6, same whooper sounds QRMing WWL and WHO, thought to be malfunxioning Cuban transmitters (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, Sept 6 at 0305, S9+30/40 of dead air from RHC; and 15230, at 0306, S9/+10 not quite DA but JBM suptorted music, and NOT // 6000 which has begun barely modulating in English with hum. I guess 15230 on Spanish program feed. Still no 9700 or any other frequency found. Somethings always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5025, Sept 6 at 0629, R. Rebelde is totally off, rather than dead air usually by this hour. 4765 R. Progreso remains totally unheard even before its nominal 0400*. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Sept 6 at 1445, S4/S6 of dead air no doubt from RHC, no other signals anywhere from 9 to 17 MHz bands, not even 11760 or 15140. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT [non?]. 9440, Sept 6 at 2205, JBA carrier direct so can`t be sure where Cairo or BBC via Philippines this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 6185-, Sept 6 at 0634, XEPPM S9+25/35 of dead air or trace of mod? Yet again, just when I would like to drift off by their nice music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NICARAGUA. 28365 USB, Sept 6 at 2207, CQDX from YN9H as in Honolulu, soon working a US N+ station. Quick scan hit no 10m beacons so had to settle for phone, among a few other signals. QRZ.com: ``YN9H Nicaragua flag Nicaragua, Henry Arauz Ubeda, Sacramento, Jinotega, JI 65000, Nicaragua. QSL: ONLY via QSL MANAGER EA5GL`` Long ago, an aunt was confused as I tried to explain that a word like that was merely a fonetik not a station location (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, Sept 6 at 0309, JBA carrier from presumed Hikari FM pirate, Mexico. Gary Pence has managed to pull some musicaudio from this via California remote. No signal here at 1448 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 341 MCW kHz, Sept 6 at 0259, and still 1450 UT, no signal from EnId`s least-known radio station, ND beacon EI, at Woodring Airport. Had been reliable for many weeks and not logged. Even tho a few km away, it was never a local bigsig, but not even a trace of carrier now. This has happened before, but eventually resumed. Noise level always a LW problem, but I still can at least JB hear 255 SW Stillwater, 515 PN Ponca City and some Kansans (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15390 & 15520, Fri Sept 6 at 2158, half the REE frequencies are still OFF, a semiservice, leaving 17715; & best 17855 for N America still on for 2200 token English, S9+30/40 direct. 2201 news leads with shakeup in governmental financial officials; and new PM finally named in France. 2211 feature interview about editing Wikipedia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785+, Sept 6 at 2159 & 2200, no signal direct from VOT English; *2200.4 carrier on at S8/S9 but no mod. After Spain check, by 2203 VOT is modulating during olds, 2213 Gaza death toll at 40K. 2214 `Review of the Turkish Press`, about Egyptian Pres. Sisi`s first visit to Turkey, and Istanbul is Europe`s busiest airport. 2216 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo and `Weekly Analysis` on improving cooperation with Egypt following Sisi`s visit to Ankara. 2223 music. 2233 I`ve switched to UTwente at S9+50, ending `Turkish Folk Tales`, music. 2236 `That`s Why` as always voiced by Efsun the accentuated, on misconceptions about something, music. 2253 s/off ignoring SW, IS. 2256 restart IS with German IDs until chop 2259.8* just in time. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 332 MCW kHz, Sept 6 at 1450 UT, NDB IC, wIChita KS is JBA. For so nearby and powerful at 400 watts, it`s always incredibly weak and hard to reconfirm. And I have yet to hear any sign of QT, 1000 watts from Thunder Bay, in normal winter night conditions stronger than IC. Is it still on air? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [non]. 17629.989, Sept 6 at 1628, I`m standing by via UTwente for new weekly VOA Fulani semihour. This Friday, cuts on *1629 audiblizing tail end of `Africa News Tonight` in English! 1630 switch to Fulani, S9+15/20. Recheck at 1656 in some music. 1659 FuFu announcement mentioning Washington, cut to dead air at 1700, and off at 1700.3* without any closing in English, let alone YDD. Reportedly via site BOTSWANA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2259 monitoring: Confirmed by timer recording Friday September 6 at 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323, quite sufficient. Confirmed Friday September 6 at 2204 the 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20 but noisy direct. Also confirmed Friday September 6 at 2257 the 2230 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.000+, S9+5/10. Next: 0300 UT Saturday WTWW 5085; 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]; 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.

By MO or check on a US bank in US funds to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 Or via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com ** U S A. 9930, Sept 6 at 2210, WTWW with TOMBS, but 9475 with SFAW is OFF. By 2338 recheck, both are on, so expect 5920 and 5085 later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, Sept 6 at 0635, this WRMI reactivated, S9+15/20 of TOMBS, slightly stronger than 9395, S9+5/15 of SMTV in - German, why not? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Pre-check of WBCQs before `AAAWWW`, Sept 6 at 2345 into NH SDR: 3265 and 5130 off. 6160 -71 Hz = 6159.929, S9+5/10 TOMBS. 7490 -72 Hz = 7489.928 with FKB. 2359 FKB gets the one-minute warning to wrap up and does on 7490-; dead air, bit of extraneous rock/soul music, deadair. UT Sat Sept 7 at 0001 finally `Wm Tell Overture` theme. Now 5130 -74 Hz = 5129.926 is also on //, not 3265. It`s new, remarx over theme ``get those gears going`` and ``beaming not streaming`` -- really? 7490 is also streaming tho unchecked. ``Live`` from Studio 9, which means Allan is back home in Deland of Fla, and finally with Angela in view rather than on phone. Says has been shooting short videos of WBCQ and putting on X - which I cannot view without compromise. It`s too hot and too much rain. Worried about plastic pollution: each American consumes a credit card`s worth of plastic each week. 0024 about EVs, audio replacing radio, referring to Radio World articles. 0040 says simulcasting on 7490 and 5130 but no datestamp; 5130 has been fixed, it and 3265 are available for major airtime purchases, and some time on 7490. Rest mostly political about ``stolen`` elexion - Angela will never be convinced otherwise; ``Communist Democrats`; Harris a ``clown``. USA will be ruined if she`s elected rather than Trump: they are still totally delusional. Just switch the candidates and parties to get them back to reality, fat chance (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5890, Sept 6 at 0303, S9+30/40 of dead air from this WWCR but still surrounded by a noisy field 5875/5905 or so. This also means that there is modulation from 5935 TUN/PMS only on leapfrog mixing product 5980 at S9+10. Something`s nonsensical at Nashville. This particular hour is not TOMBS unlike all the others (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1110, Sept 6 at 0654, C2CAM on KFAB now running 31 seconds behind same on 1040 WHO; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VENEZUELA. 4940, Sept 6 at 0628, hymn? music at S7/S8 from Onda Corta 4940 station. Sometimes on air overnight, usually not (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 10020 USB, Sept 6 at 0638, 2-way in tonal language, almost musical-sounding. Nothing in Klingenfuß 2022y on this exact frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 12195 AM, Sept 6 at 0310, S9/+10 again of open carrier. Also at 0642 S6/S9, stronger than hardly any broadcast signal on the 25 mb (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 15648.83 USB, Sept 6 at 2221, 2-way in colloquial Spanish, whistling, and think I heard ``madre`` mentioned, as in short for ``puta madre`` a staple interjexion of lowclass ops (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0227 September 7

 ** BRAZIL [non]. 4885, Sept 5 at 0628, no signal from R. Clube do Pará, now nor ever for weeks. Used to be reliable evenings and overnights. Someone recently reported it after 1100, but I think that must have been Korean clandestine starting at 1100, which is 3 hours after sunrise in Belém (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 11780, Sept 3 at 2215, RNA is on at S9+10/20; was not on before 2200 as I was checking 11785 for Turkey, AWOL that date. Has been having 11780 transmitter problems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2259) ** CUBA. 5025, Sept 5 at 0626, S9+35 of dead air in Spanish from R. Rebelde. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2259) ** MEXICO. 6185-, Sept 5 at 0630, XEPPM in dead air or maybe trace of modulation, as too often the case latenight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935+, Sept 5 at 1625 into UTwente, extremely rapid chirping totally obliterates any program audio of Yemen service.

Since there is an experimental license for wideband data high power to be located at an old GTE central office building about a mile from the Everett Boeing aircraft plant.

Oh - 10240 was only used for a few days over a weekend about a month ago. I have not seen them there any more. I think they must of gotten a call that Monday from some of our 'friends' and was told to move away from the popular COTHEN channel on 10242 KHz. I have not worked hard to find the matching receive freqs. And maybe I will drive around with the SDRPlay and see where they might be located. In which case I will post.

 ** CANADA [non]. Re 24955 USB, CY9C: ``Hi Glenn, Just for your reference, St. Paul Island is counted as a separate country on the ARRL Country list as is Sable Island. Bill Smith, Douglas, MA``
Makes no sense to me, but ARRL can create radio countries at will. Sable, yes, far out in the Atlantic. Wikipedia info: ``Sable Island (French: île de Sable, literally "island of sand") is a small Canadian island situated 300 km (190 mi) southeast of Halifax, Nova Scotia, and about 175 km (109 mi) southeast of the closest point of mainland Nova Scotia in the North Atlantic Ocean.`` ``St. Paul Island is a uninhabited island located approximately 24 km northeast of Cape North on Cape Breton Island and 71 km southwest of Cape Ray on Newfoundland; it is along the boundary between the Gulf of St. Lawrence and the Cabot Strait. Province: Nova Scotia`` Such a ruling would imply any island more than 24 km from mainland, despite no *political* separation, could be a radio country. How about Magdalen Islands, further than that? Haida Gwaii? countless other Arctic situations? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Sept 4 at 0257, S9 of dead air from RHC. 6000 is only other frequency found, S9+40 at 0306, suptorted English and still no 9700. Somethings always wrong at RHC. The Other Side: ``'The ideological spirit and forces driving regime change in Mexico are from Havana' Diego Santana, Madrid 03 Sep 2024 - 17:52 CEST Andrés Manuel López Obrador and Miguel Díaz-Canel in Havana [caption]. Mexico 'The ideological spirit and forces driving regime change in Mexico are from Havana' DIARIO DE CUBA talks about relations between the two countries with Cuban journalist Rubén Cortés, who has been based in Mexico for more than 20 years. Cubadebate Relations between Mexico and Cuba, between the governments of Andrés Manuel López Obrador (AMLO) and Miguel Díaz-Canel, have been particularly intense in recent years, marked by ideological affinities, the influence of propaganda from Havana in Mexico, and the economic support that AMLO has provided to the Cuban regime amidst the unremitting collapse of Cuban society. In the coming weeks, Mexico will swear in a new president, Claudia Sheinbaum, heiress to the current ruler, but will relations with Havana change? DIARIO DE CUBA spoke with the Mexican-based Cuban journalist Rubén Cortés, with extensive experience in that country's media, to analyze the current context of bilateral relations, how they have influenced each other, and how they will do so in the future. What do you think is Cuba's real level of influence in Mexico today? Havana is supervising and overseeing the design, structure and execution of the dismantling of democracy in Mexico, like it did in Venezuela and Nicaragua, with some variations, depending on local characteristics...`` https://diariodecuba.com/internacional/1725378739_56950.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9790, Sept 4 at 0313, CRI English relay S9+20/30 but quite undermodulated.

Ron Howard had also been wondering about him and reports on Sept 3: ``[WOR] Hikari FM (formerly Radio Pushka and later became Radio Channel Eastern Star/Radio Vostochnaya Zvezda) --- Hi Glenn, Thanks very much to Gary Pence for the reminder that the pirate Hikari FM has not been reported for a while now, so perhaps I should resume my contact with the station to find out what his current plans are. As a result I emailed the operator of Hikari FM and here is his quick reply: "Thank you very much for reaching out! Thank you very very much. I will bring hikari back on, I have brought it on with my old transmitter on 11.515. I am designing and building a new shortwave transmitter. Last time my antenna got demolished by careless landscaping workers. I have rebuilt everything and re-tuned the system which was lavishly tuned prior. I really want to get a local signal into California and a (listenable) signal into Japan. SW is definitely my go to from now on. I cannot get any good coverage locally even with a 500 watt FM transmitter, my location is horrible for FM, my site is lower than the average terrain. While I am on the small transmitter I will run the station 24/7 but when I finish the 100 watt one I am not sure. I might even relay NHK at some point idk, not sure what the rules are regarding that. Very Very best regards" I appreciated receiving his neat eQSL in the past - https://app.box.com/s/840fokvf0foh4oll221ekynr0vx4ku3s Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935.417-, Sept 4 at 1816, Yemen service with ME chanting and drumming, soon Arabic exhortations, S9+15/20 into UTwente.
