Oops, accidentally sent out both pre- and post-edited versions. Go with the second one which is the same except Romania edited for clarity. Glenn
** ROMANIA [and non]. 11930 AM, Oct 31 at 0642, with Cuban jamming adds up to S7/S9, readable but annoying. NOT DRM as shown on earlier version of RRI own sked. But not any more:
https://www.rri.ro/en_gb/winter_broadcast_frequencies_2023_2024-2692610 Would DRM do better against jamming? Doubt it. HFCC format https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B23&broadc=RRO has no column for DRM or not, tho could be placed under NOTES. The master frequency sked, still not updated since Oct 27, does claim 11930 is N = numérique = digital; NOT. HFCC also includes countless wooden transmissions as if all senders were in use.
Meanwhile received reply from English Dept., to my previous two logs: ``Hi, Glenn, We're sorry about this whole business. Unfortunately there is not much we can do about it :/ We are however happy to hear about reception quality on your frequency. Best wishes, The English Service`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 940, Oct 30 at 0701 UT, Canadian news, so CBM réal? Dominating on my E/W longwire: but NOT // 990 CBW, and also mentions Canadian Press, so it`s the only other non-LPRT, CJGX Yorkton SK, U2 50/10 kW. And CBM is long-gone! Now 940 in PQ is CFNV, U4 50/50 in French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 15034 USB, Oct 30 at 2216, Trenton Military *still* with ``no report received`` even from Toronto, Ottawa, Trenton. What a laughingstock (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 7335, Oct 30 at 0656, jamming against nothing since R. Martí has moved to 7355; and still on 7435, both extremely strong and can`t hear any jamming. B23 HFCC shows: no 7335 at all; 7355 at 23-24 & 03-15; 7435 at 00-11 & 13-15. Only other 40m is 7365 at 01-03 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 21640.15V, Oct 30 at 1515, YL with marine weather in French and English, like ``43-West``, S4/S8 direct, i.e. La Boulangère MiniTransAt temporary transmission from Issoudun. This is varying audibly as I try to measure it. At 1532, Maryland remote ungets it any better, S3/S5 but Synch shows fq oscillating between +129 and 162 Hz. Bonaire gets S7/S9 oscillating +122/+159. Now has been reciting race standings in order. 1540 ``question of the day``, what? 1541 into music fill including 1555 Céline Dion`s catch-phrase in medley. 1557 deadair to 1600*. Nothing on also registered 17800. And there is nothing about these broadcasts on homepage https://minitransat.fr/ The sailors were to have departed Oct 28 on the second leg, Canary Islands to Guadeloupe, France (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 11610, Oct 30 at 2212, outstanding S9+10/20 signal direct in Arabic with contact info, quaint ``Greenwich`` times, Radio Feda IDs, i.e. MWV which is 100 kW, 325 degrees for NW Africa, favorable for us beyond: and would you believe the preceding hour in Chinese is registered with exactly same parameters? Feda means redemption (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 13630, Oct 30 at 2212, choral music S9/+10, i.e. CRI Bamako relay in oddly scheduled 2130-2230 French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 13755, Oct 30 at 0649, RNZP at S9/+25 much better than first night of new B23 channel; almost overcomes my high line noise level bursts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA. 9510, Oct 30 at 0417, RRI on NF in English for N America west, excellent like a local direct, S9+40/45, armchair listening including: `Encyclopedia`; 0421 song; 0424 `Visit Romania`; 0428 `Romanian Without Tears` = language lesson with useful phrases pronounced carefully; 0430 ID and `Music A to Z`; 0451 `Focus on Romania: Simply Folk`; 0455 s/off and IS twice to 0456*. I`m also sending these directly to engl@rri.ro (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA [and non]. 11930, Oct 30 at 0646, RRI English is being jammed. They were foolish enough to assume a R. Martí frequency would be OK at other hours, unaware that the fiendish Cubans would be jamming it up to 24/7. HFCC shows no others fall into the 11930 trap, just the 0630-0700 English from Galbeni for W Europe. RM OCB registered 14-24 at 184 degrees from Grimesland, 00-01 at 183 degrees: why bother with a 1-degree adjustment?? As for Cuba, I`m sure they don`t mind causing collateral damage to a country which decades ago overthrew the yoke of Commie oppression (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Oct 30 at 2301, token English from SNR at new B23 time and frequency; this early in season, greatly inferior on the ATS-909 portable to how 17855 previously arrived at 2200 in A23. But the NRD-545 with longwire gets it just fine, S9+15/30, much better than 12030, and VP on 17715, inaudible on 17755. Maryland SDR also gets 9690 VG S9+20/30. 2309 interview with an EU spoxeperson in Brussels about being wary of fake news. 2322 about Spain`s first and only astronaut who launched on October 29, 1998. 2328 wrapup about Rocky Horror Pixure Show, for Hallowe`en (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, Oct 29 at 2318, VOT English confirmed on new B23 frequency and new time 23 instead of 22 UT due to irrelevant end of DST in Europe, not Turkey. VP here, not enough to overcome my high line noise level imposed by OG&E. 5960 again Oct 30, no contest vs simulEnglish from SPAIN, q.v. But doing well into Maryland SDR, 2330 haunting Turkish song, S7/9+5. 2334 `New Day, New Choices` about dietary benefits of eating eggs, S9+25/40 into UTwente on 5960.005; 2338 always-by-your-side promo, another song. But do I now hear a trace of understation CCI? Yes, HFCC shows CNR Urumqi at 2330-1800, 100 kW ND in the Zho language -? Must not mean Chinese since there is a nearby entry as Chi. Look at the HUGE language abbr. file among the HFCC zippery -- it`s about the same size as the schedules, with countless tongues never heard of and certainly never on SW, even considering rabid evangelism of cultural genocide. Zho *does* mean Chinese and there is no ``Chi`` between Chh for Chinook and Chj for Ojitlán Chinantec. There are also countless abbrs. starting with Z for names with no Z in them. 2343 `Did You Know That` Turkey participated for first time in Olympix, Paris, 1924y. 2352 s/off and IS for a while, but off before German IDs can start after 2356 and uncovering that Zho station: which should not be a QRM problem in North America. Std denunciation re E Turkistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6125.019, Oct 30 at 0420, VOT English on new B23 frequency for NAm and new time, S9+20/35 into Georgia SDR but with constant squeal. At 0432 direct, same squeal, S9+20 but insufficient vs my high line noise level bursts. No contest vs simulEnglish from ROMANIA, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKQOGBANI. 25900, Oct 30 at 1604, JBA carrier direct vs S6/S7 local noise level, from daring new 11m service of BBCWS in English. Barely better at Maryland SDR, S3/S5. At 1605 I bring up the target area SDR at TWR RSA: S7/9+5, usable but hardly solid with fades. By 1658 it`s peaking S9+10. 1700 timesignal and continues rather than off: I thought it was for one hour only but HFCC now shows 16-18, 125 kW, 165 degrees from a Woofferton semi-transmitter. I keep an ear on it for rest of hour; by 1754 fading down to S7 until 1759.5* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. 11810, Oct 30 at 0645 BBCWS newsy in English, S7/S9, this hour only ASCENSION, 125 kW at 65 degrees; vs line noise level here of S6/S7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 28208.2, Oct 29 at 2204, beacon with two alternating IDs: certainly sounds like one transmitter on exactly same frequency and never overlapping, with VVV VVV: WN2A/B, and AK2F/B. Yes: WI5V roster shows: ``28.2082 WN2A/AK2F C BUDD LAKE/RANDOLPH, NJ # 4W, VERTICAL (alternating ID).`` But why? As usual these days the beacon band is full of signals, so I just pick one, hoping eventually to hear something outside of North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 11720, Oct 29 at 2143, VOA Grimesland reactivated here for B23, country music loud & clear off the back. This is a VOA music hour which presumably still includes `Music Time in Africa` Fridays at 2105, our best chance to hear it instead of weak 15580 via Botswana. Does the hostess still never mention this time for it? Have not searched new sked, but normally this is the *only* VOA English hour surviving out of Grimesland (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2214 monitoring: confirmed Sunday October 29 at 2100 ex-2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+15 into nearby SDR, atop some CCI talk, can`t make out language, but Hungarian from Romania or something schedule also probably shifted an hour later. Also confirmed UT Monday October 30 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+5 into Georgia SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday October 30 from 0301, S9+5/15 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -68 Hz = 6159.932 into Georgia SDR. There was dead air at 0300, then ID. From next week: at 0400v. Next: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [irregular?] 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB 1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2213] 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 Thanks this week for financial support from Andy Reid, Ontario, via PayPal not necessarily in US funds to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, WTWW missing a few nights checked before 0400; nor noticed at random other chex, nor on 9475 at 2209 October 30. No 5085 at 0013 Oct 31. Wonder what the story is now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0026 UT October 31

WORLD OF RADIO SCHEDULES update for non-DST in Europe; non-DST in North America will be Nov 5 http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST update Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update. https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm 1) Updated UTC offset details for start of DST (24 September) in New Zealand (RNZ) 2) Updated UTC offset details for end of DST (29 October) in Germany (HCJB Deutsch), Greece (V of Greece), Romania (R Romania Int), Spain (REE) 3) Canada - BVB: Updated link to new B23 frequencies. 4) Germany - R Elektra: removed entire entry, domain no longer exists 5) Netherlands - R Delta Int: Updated links to RDI frequency and programme pages 6) Spain - REE: Updated link to frequency page for new B23 schedule 7) USA - WRMI: removed link to an old (no longer updated) Facebook page The next update is scheduled for early November (for end of DST in Americas) Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe ** ALGERIA. 6040, Oct 29 at 0622, JBA something new here for B23. Latest HFCC dated Oct 27 shows TDA Ouargla at 03-07, 300 kW at 210 degrees. 21550 nor any other 13m channel B23 for TDA in HFCC, and indeed nothing there Oct 29 at 1505, tho JBA carrier 21551.2 probably receiver birdie (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, UT Sunday October 29 the Saturday broadcast from circa 1800 is *still* on the air at further chex of Argentine SDRs, at 0023; 0103 about Oct 29 being an anniversary of Base Marambio; and how they had a special broadcast on Friday Oct 20 for the 44th anniversary of LRA36. May I suggest it is rather lame to rely so much on anniversary dates for programming ideas, especially if they not be multiples of 5 or even 10? Still at 0110 but any further monitoring here is interrupted by a series of thunderstorms. As in last report, LRA36 had ``re-signed-on`` at 2306, presumably playing back the 1800 broadcast, but until?? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 2749 USB, Oct 29 at 0314 UT, S9 marine weather by YL voice in French, my first log this season of Canadian Coast Guard MW broadcasts. https://dxinfocentre.com/mb.htm shows the latest transmission on 2749 starts at 0240 from VCS-21, 1500 watts, Halifax NS, but not flagged as bilingual. DST is still in effect, but never clear to me whether these stay at same local clock time or same real Z time. Nothing heard now or yet on 2598 USB, from the further Newfoundland area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, Oct 29 at 0642, RHC overtime, S3/S5 about bloqueo, tiresome Spanish blaming that for their own incompetent Commie government. Maybe Sunday Esperanto followed at 0700? Something`s always wrong at RHC; zzz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 13605, Oct 29 at 1459, still pulse jamming here on R. Martí A23 frequency just vacated; while B23 channel, 13820 is in dead air until 1500+ some music and ID, way atop jamming if any which was never turned off completely during A-season (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, Oct 29 at 1500, RHC in Esperanto, but 15140 is weak with no modulation audible. Opening sked recitation still imagines at 1600 on 11760 only, which may become true next week when as a running dog of Yanqui imperialism, Cuba goes off DST same date. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 21485, Oct 29 at 1504, JBA carrier as I check for B23 newness. HFCC shows 1430-1600 it`s ISS 250 kW 135 degrees in Apd language by JRC; is that unclear? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 21640, Oct 29 at 1505, something JBA. HFCC of Oct 27 for B23 shows new frequencies for the TA boatrace! 21640 1500 1600 11SE,36S,46NW,81S ISS 250 240 0 207 1234567 291023 131123 D 17400 Fra F TDF TDF 4328 MiniTra but rotating 17 degrees further clockwise for final week: 21640 1500 1600 11SE,36S,46NW,81S ISS 250 257 0 217 1234567 141123 201123 D 17400 Fra F TDF TDF 4329 MiniTra Plus another hour and frequency for the first biweek+: 17800 1700 1800 11SE,36S,46NW,81S ISS 150 250 0 217 1234567 291023 151123 N 17400 Fra F TDF TDF 4086 MiniTra No more listings for 15300 & 13735 where I routinely unheard them today after 1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 13755, Oct 29 at 0639, RNZP on new frequency, only S6/S7, ex-11725 which was always a blaster. Now sked 0559-1258, preceded by 17675 from 2259, followed by 7390 until 1650 of which I have a JBA carrier at 1507 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17755, Oct 29 at 1509, JBA presumed REE for Africa and nothing on 17775 for B23; also still 17715 for S America slightly better; but 9690 this early useless for N America. Propagation 101: they don`t get the need for at least two bands, higher and lower for a long timespan partly all day, partly mostly night. That leaves 12030 best for us in the morning, S6/S7 despite off the back toward ME; dispensable sports report now from Fórmula 1 to baloncesto (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 13635, Oct 29 at 1417, VOT English is JBA on new frequency for B23 from 1330, ex-1230 A23 on 15450; ex-1330 last B-years on 12035 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2214 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday October 29 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 over lite Cuban pulse jamming into Maine SDR. Not confirmed UT Sunday October 29 between 0300 and 0605 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO into nearby SDR; nominal time 0315. This Week in Amateur Radio seemed to go on forever; I should catch WOR if I check at least once every 25 minutes. One ham radio news item was about the SAQ upcoming Oct 24 transmission. Next: 2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy [ex-2000] 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW [irregular?] 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [irregular?] 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB 1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2213] 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 Thanks this week for financial support from Andy Reid, Ontario, via PayPal not necessarily in US funds to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 29 at 0633, no signal detected from RV; but I`m on interior randomwire due to T-storms. Manuel Méndez, Spain, was getting it direct presumably longpath this date at 0552-0658* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VATICAN. 6195, Oct 29 at 0624, S6/S7 in French. B23 HFCC shows BBC via SMG at 0600-0629, 250 kW at 234 degrees; also English at 05-06, 195 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Oct 29 from 0302 UT, vs hi storm noise level, on the R75 with loop: 531, 774-2, 855-2, 891, 1098, 1107, 1116, 1125, 1134 --- AND 1548 kHz at 0309, much stronger than the others but no audio-ible; slight fades unlike something local. Right on 1548.00 to my ear. The only two bigsigs on 1548 in Eurasia are R. Farda, 600 kW via Kuwait; and TWR Europe, 500 kW via Pridnestrovye, but mwlist, WRTH Update and EiBi show both on air only in local evenings, not mornings. Nevertheless possibly one of them testing, and no signal at next check circa 0325. Another TA bandscan at 0321: 585, *684, 693, 774-2, 837, 855-2, 891, 1008, 1098, 1107, 1305; and something offset below 1494, nothing listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9700, Oct 29 at 0635, S2/S3 jazz? HFCC B23 shows both Turkey and Japan; or Cuba never in HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1956 UT October 29

Sunday, October 29 2023
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Oct 28 at 1753, no signal yet from LRA36 as I break for lunch, but it`s on by 1821; 1900 song ``Argentina Blanco``, surely not implying that Arg. be masculine? 1905 ID, contact info, 1913 about LRA36. It`s S6/S7 into Bs. As. remote, sufficient. Still going at 2117. And 2200 also via Mendoza, while Bs As is totally blocked intermittently by wideband QRM bursts, on H2Ofall seemingly emanating from about 7.1 MHz, i.e. a nearby ham. Still on at 2228. 2257 about ham radio: I think she says the ham station at the base uses the same rhombic antenna as LRA36, worked 70 countries including FT8 mode. 2301 contact info including huge whatsapp number uttered once. 2302 outro ham segment with Morse code. Song and 2305 long Morse code starting with LRA36 ID. 2306 canned *sign-on*, ``a partir de este momento,`` multilingual RNASG IDs, and scripted recitation, ``El valor del miedo``. 2311 re-starting a new edition of `Uniendo Voces`, but I bet they chop off long before another 5 hours have passed. Weather conditions, but slurred and I can`t understand the temp. 54th anniversary of Base Marambio is coming up. 2340 still going (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA [and non?]. 11499.978, Oct 28 at 1616, UTwente synchs on a signal here, which must be Sound of Hope or CNR1 jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 5025, Sat Oct 28 at 0643, R. Rebelde is gone again; something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. 5010, WRMI is on, but often not this late: per grid it`s after 0400 only on Sat & Sun with TOMBS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non?]. 11760, Sat Oct 28 at 1534, no signal from RHC, but pops on at *1535 in Spanish. Should be // 15140 where there is something weak but unseems the same. Aoki & EiBi show nothing else on 15140 except: 16-17 RFA Uighur via Tinian and CNR1 jamming. We should keep in mind that 15140 = 2 x 7570 whenever that WRMI be on but it hardly ever harmonicizes. Hmmm, skedgrid shows WRMI-11 on 7570 until 1500 but Saturdays until 1600 with TOMBS. 7570 itself unchecked now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 28 at 2124, no signal from R. Cairo into UTwente, nor just before 2200 but a tone presumably BBC warming up to be unimpeded. Something`s amiss at Abis. HFCC B23 shows 9440 continuing for another season in English at 2115-2245, however imaginary that may often be - and the others look familiar too: https://new.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B23&broadc=ERU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 11655, Oct 28 at 1533, S Asian talk, S7/S9, listed as NHK in Hindi from Yamata until 1550 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11545, Oct 28 at 1531, weak talk, stronger than only other carriers below 11600, which are 11530 and 11575. EiBi has nothing on 11545, but Aoki shows Dengê Gel until 1600 via Uzbekistan. I haven`t tried for this much lately, due to jumparounds vs Recep the Turkish jammer, often hard to tell which if not on same frequency. 11530, Oct 28 at same time 1531, JBA carrier. EiBi shows this as Dengê Gel rather than 11545. One or the other likely to be jammer right now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KUWAIT. 11575.000, Oct 28 at 1617, something exactly on-frequency at UTwente, listed as R. Ashna, USAGM service for Afghanistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWAZILAND. 11879.96 approx., Sat Oct 28 at 1537, off-frequency talk at S4/S5 vs local noise level S7/S8. TWR in Somali only on weekends extended 1530-1545. Likely longpath (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 28 at 2158, VOT is not off the air unlike yesterday, IS running, VG S9+50 into UTwente and good modulation too. After news, 2212 choral anthem, national? but cut short for promo at 2213 about ``Happy 100th anniversary of the Turkish Republic`` and `The Captain`s Log`, told in first person as if announcer himself wrote it, about how wonderful a city is İstanbul. 2220 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2222 song -- these musical breaks are never identified and I don`t always mention them. 2227 `Gripping Piles` repeat on the gig economy. 2230 another Happy-100th promo. 2235 always-by-your-side promo. 2239 `Geomarked [sic] Products` on lace from Sparta? 2242 with-you-every-hour promo. 2250 Happy-100th again. 2251 s/off. 2252 IS playing for a decent interval until off at 2255.6* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U A E. 12095, Oct 28 at 1540, no signal yet, but from Oct 29 with B23, Encompass will transmit the WRN Russian service via Dhabayya at 1500-1700, including Prague, own programs including Panorama DX program Sats at 1530; 1600 Japan, 1630 Slovakia, as Panorama reported last week via Alex Miatlikov from Ukraine to the WOR iog. This is a busy channel, pioneered by BBC which still partly uses it via various sites, but also FEBC, with an A23 gap 1400/1800 sometimes occupied by R. Delta Int`l, Netherlands (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2214 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday October 28 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S6/S8 into Maryland SDR. Also confirmed Saturday October 28 at 1600 on WRN N America webcast.

Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Oct 28 at 0514-0531 on the NRD-545 with E/W longwire: this time I laboriously punch each of almost all 9/kHz channels minus one in USB. I started downwards from 855, then upwards from there but here put in order: 603, 612, 621, 639, *684, 702, 711, 747-2, 774-2, 801-2, 837, *855-2; 864, 882, 891, 936-2, 963, 999, 1017, 1044, 1098, 1107-2, 1125, 1152-2, 1296, 1305-2, 1314, 1413, 1422. *strongest, likely both Spain and many of the others. -2 = at least two carriers beating. Above 1422, I hit only two anomalies, off-frequency approx. 1467.3 and 1565.13. Mwoffsets has Iran on 1467.39, but nothing that far below 1566. These could be local receiver birdies; or spurs from US station(s). If matching from one station it would be exactly halfway between them: 1516.215 = very unlikely as nothing there. Does anyone else get carriers on those? Could also be Latin American variants (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING New House Speaker Thinks Creationist Museum Is 'Pointing People To The Truth' By Liz Skalka and Paul Blumenthal Oct 26, 2023, 07:59 PM EDT An ark replica with dinosaurs "is one way to bring people to this recognition ... that what we read in the Bible are actual historical events,” Mike Johnson said... https://www.huffpost.com/entry/mike-johnson-young-earth-creationist_n_653adc81e4b0d69ae7068a0b (via Greg Hardison) i.e., showing the SOTH is irrational!

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9955, Fri Oct 27 at 1457-1459.5, multilingual RAE IDs repeating over and over, filling out the French relay via WRMI sked M-F at 1430 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Oct 27 at 2200, token English from SNR for last time until March 25 (?) at this hour and frequency: from Oct 30 will be at 2300 on 9690 for us. Feature to follow the news today about some festival. Altho metering S9+10/20 direct, lots of fading and noise make it suboptimal for further escuching. 15520 even worse but still mejor than 17715 or 11670 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 27 at 2200 and several later chex both direct and via UTwente: no signal in English to us, nor on possible mistaken 9875.

Also on 5130+ pre-empting T****, but still something else on 6160-, and no signal on 3265+. Major news from elsewhere in Maine, was it mentioned? Anyhow we learnt that the rather small city of Lewiston is nevertheless second only to Portland in size. Places like Augusta, Bangor, Kennebunkport are even smaller. So I`m curious how Monticello ranx by population in Maine? Convenient Maine Demographics website has an exhaustive ranking: Monticello is #326 with a pop. of only 733. Does that include A&A who are in Florida much of the time like now? As usual runs over at least a minute into Hal Turner time on 7490 by 0101, but I notice that did not happen on 5130+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED.
