** U S A. Another fruitless search for Es FM DX bouncing over and
around us per maps: Kansas GW/tropo is still up, possibly blocking any
`openish` channels, but some obs of note, May 15:

93.5, at 0157 UT ``Power 93.5, Wichita`s #1`` and at 0202 adding ``#1
for hip-hop and more``. WTFDA shows KDGS Andover KS, 15/15 kW, 114 m
HAAT, format Rhythmic CHR. Ordinarily the KS I get on 93.5 is the
further KKDT Burdett, 95 kW, 304.8 m, 248 km/154 stmi.

89.5 is an `open` frequency here between ACIs, usually nothing at all
audible, but at 0155 UT a program outro is JBA but steady for
``Somebody Loves You Radio``, address in California, mention CSN so
presumably a CSN = Calvary Satellite Network station. i.e. a relay of
KAWZ 89.9 in Idaho. Likely one of these three closest:
K208CG OKC 0.25/0.25 kW; K208GR Wichita 0/0.25 kW; or KJCC Carnegie OK
23.5 kW, 118.8 m, 157 km/98 stmi (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4850, May 15 at 0639, JBA carrier like 3 nights earlier,
probably Euro pirate as others were hearing modulation via Ireland
remote (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2295)

UNIDENTIFIED. 105.3, May 15 at 1711 UT into caradio, dead air seems
here, a tight squeeze between 105.1 & 105.5 stations. Could be either.
KINB Kingfisher OK 0.93/0.93 kW, 254.0 m CBS Sports Radio; or KFBZ
Haysville KS [suburb SW of Wichita]. 98.0/98.0 kW, 307.0 m, The Buzz,
Top 40 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Tropo map https://vhf.dxview.org/ shows big
blob over Enid extending to W Kansas, E Oklahoma, so UHF bandscan at
1505-1515 UT May 14:

DX Decoding; not taking time to explore subchannels:

BAD signals: RF 6, 8, 9, 10, 11, 21, 36. There are still *no* RF 6 in
OK, so must be KBSD Ensign KS = Dodge City, only one in KS. Takes some
doing to show an RF 6 sig into my antenna for hiband 7+ and UHF only
and aimed SE. There are however several low-power RF6 in TX, not LA
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PERU. 21265 USB, May 14 at 2207, OA4CHA calling CQ in English, then
QSO in Spanish. We had trouble understanding his fonetik for H but I
guess it was hotel. QRZ.com: ``OA4CHA Peru flag Peru, Luis Enrique
"Luis" Meza Alvarado, Calle Andalucía 207, La Molina, Lima 15024,
Peru`` - but his ``latest QSO`` shown there was on 4-28 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN [and non]. 17715 & 15390, May 14 at 2159, NO Signals from
REE, must be off, while 15500 is S9+20/30 and 15520 S9+10. 17 MHz prop
is OK since 17880 from Beijing site is audible - I had assumed it were
Kashgar. The two REEs are SSOB along with 15770 WRMI. 2200, SNR token
English previews something about Segovia; and San Ysidro en Madrid.
2201 news leads with scandal about leaked messages, the PM`s wife, and

** U S A. 25000, May 14 at 2205, WWV S9/+10 getting a sporadic E boost
under 500 miles, also 20000 S9+20/30. Checked 30000 in case of a WWV

** U S A. Looking for sporadic E on caradio, but instead, extended GW

94.5, at 1945 UT, music, strong, surely Es instead of nothing? Fades
