Hauser
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.003, Feb 13 at 2318 VOT English S9+40 into
UTwente, CCCCCCI underaudible especially at pauses. `That`s Why`
repeat about learning more than one foreign language, voiced by the
badax. 2325 `Weekly Commentary` penned by a Fulbright Scholar --
Hussein? -- read by the badax, maybe half the words understood, about
Tucker Carlson`s interview of Putin, Ukraine situation. 2337 `Turkey`s
Geomarked [sic] Products`, some hot dessert with cheese ingredient.
2340 musix. 2353 s/off for 1330 broadcast only. 2353.6 IS starts. 2356
restart IS with German IDs. 2357.5* chopoff uncovering XJRTV, std
denunciations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2229 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday February 13 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, fair S9 into Durango2 SDR.

** VATICAN. 6035, Feb 13 at 1920, Italradio special for World Radio
Day, VG into UTwente, French segment about Marconi. 1932-1948 switch
to English, something about Marconi in 1903y; with IDs in Italian and
QSL offers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6190-6195-6200, Feb 12 at 0749, S9+35 DRM noise, so TDF
still active at 0730-0800 before QSY to 6000-6005-6010 at 0800 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Feb 12 at 2307, token English from SNR, good S9+40
direct, enough to overcome HLNL unlike 5960 Turkey. Feature is
interview about the ``migrant crisis``, with 7K already showing up
into the Canaries this year, causing the insular government to
``collapse``, calling for moving them on ASAP to roomier Peninsular
Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.005, Sun Feb 11 at 2336, VOT not off the air during
`Letterbox`, mail after mail from India, then Italy, Belarus`, Spain.
Has to prompt to include postal address for QSL as no eQSLs. Until
2344.4, so widening further the possible showspan. He loves us, back
next week. Then song, not theme. Was no signal yet just before 2300,
but VG now, S9+30/35 into UTwente, good mod, no squeal. 2351
multi-lingual ID filler reel.

2353 s/off only for the 1330 on 13635. That`s the first English
broadcast each day and they replay it over and over. Someone should
inform the announcer/operator about all the repeats. 2354 IS, 2356
restart IS with German IDs. 2400 timesignal and s/on as one of the two
earlier real German outsendings. Many familiar segment themes, same as
in English service. Circa 2450 finally chops off, uncovering XJRTV
East Turkistan, std denunciations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.005, Feb 12 at 2310, JBA direct vs line noise level
ranging from S9+10 to +20 all over the LW & SW bands. VOT English VG
into UTwente S9+30/35 when measured at 2335, ``always-by-your-side``
promo and ``That`s Why` on the ``art of learning a foreign language``
voiced by, who else, the badax. Says this feature is a translation
from original Turkish; which is likely the case for most segments,
unless originally in English such as a commentary or analysis by a
Westerner. Over already at 2339, ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music,
2344 ``w-y-e-h`` again, more music. 2349 one of those yet again,
music. 2352 *again*, what crutches! and s/off of 1330 only; chopoff at
2353* before any IS, uncovering the undercurrent of the understation,
XJRTV in Chinese from the other land of genocide, imperialist
ChiCom-controled East Turkistan. Note: I am not avoiding the issue of
Israeli genocide, but no SW broadcasts from there. As usual, it`s
necessary to retune UTwente, or step back-and-forth 5 kHz to get it to
display the new exact frequency which in this case is always much
closer to .000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1590, Feb 13 at 0140 UT, rather urgent talk in Russian, not
Ukrainian. The only likely possibility is WCGO Evanston IL, which per
Wikipedia does have Russian on weekday afternoons. Via tunein.com,
reaching own website, which includes a ``1950 AM`` blunder, Radio NVC
| Радио Народная Волна Чикаго | Northbrook, IL ...
https://www.radionvc.com
shows on into the evening tomorrow but won`t display now Feb 12 CST as
my computer is on UT: ``НОВОСТИ - СВОБОДА Tue, Feb 13 - Wed, Feb 14,
2024 7:00pm-12:00pm``. At 0146 could be a commercial in Russian;
however by 0230 the same semi-dominant signal is carrying songs in
Spanish. I find the webstream, http://ice23.securenetsystems.net/WCGO
and indeed it`s Spanish now as ``Ambiente Clásico`` as I already
logged direct some months ago. It sure would be nice to see an
accurate program/language full WCGO schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2229 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
February 11 at 2100.5 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S8/S9 into
UTwente, no CCI. Following 2057 vamp music, 2100 ID.

Also confirmed Sunday February 11 at 2256 the 2230 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.002, S8/S9 into UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Monday February 12 at 0043 the 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S7/S9 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday February 12 from 0401.3 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.93, S9/+5 into NH SDR, fortunately almost over by 0430 when
severe ACI hits from Russian on 6165: that`s NHK via Nauen, Germany at
0430-0450 only. HFCC shows that`s 125 kW at 85 degrees, so why such a
bigsig way over here?

Missed checking Mon Feb 12 at 0930 on SW Radio, Germany day frequency
6160, since I`m always ZZZ. Anyone hear it?

Also confirmed Monday February 12 from 2031.3 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.002, S9+10/15 into UTwente, as preceding ADDX show in German runs
slightly over, mentioning Bryan Clark [NZ]. Next:

** VANUATU. 7260, Feb 12 at 0751, song at S8, R. Vanuatu reactivated
after missing a couple nights as Manuel Méndez also notes; and Ron
Howard found it on no known frequency Feb 11 at 0705 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4750, Feb 12 at 0743, as I happen to be starting a 60mb
bandscan, rapid Morse code CODAR alfanumeric ID fires; unprepared, did
not copy it, but probably same one previously traced in this area; and
should be audible over entire swirsh-range, not just on 4750; anyway,
reconfirms time as :43 past the hours, and believed to be
icosaminutely also at :03 and :23 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5051.0, Feb 12 at 0745 carrier, seems to be constant,
also as het to 5050 earlier when WRMI Legends is on. Others hearing
it? A utility protest objector? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Feb 11 at 0100*, LRA36 off exactly as
scheduled, concluded from last report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sun Feb 11 at 0757, this RHC is unusually still on;
S9/+20 vs line noise level of S9+30 but undermodulated and have
trouble recognizing language but probably English. 0800 into weekly
Esperanto as I do recognize theme and a few words. Uncopied this time,
but they always announce 6100 as the 08 hours frequency, where it was
for longtime but 6100 totally off the air for months now. Something`s
always wrong at RHC. And now there is also QRDRM! noise from
6000-6005-6010, requiring LSB tuning of 6000 to hear anything at all.
RHC should really be on 6100 for this, even for half an hour per week,
but that would make too much sense and be too much trouble. Esperanto
is lucky to be on *any* RHC at this hour. See FRANCE (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6000-6005-6010, Feb 11 at 0800 as I am trying to monitor
RHC Esperanto on 6000, QRDRM noise ACI to it; see CUBA. Another test
from TDF, which lately had been on +6195+ at 0730-0800 but not now.
Unknown whether 6195 abandoned or just QSYed at 0800. TDF DRM at
0800-0900 on 6005 is already in EiBi and drmrx.org but not Aoki. HFCC
shows 100 kW at 350 degrees from ISS, i.e. into N Atlantic, Arctic
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955 USB, Feb 11 at 0302, rock music, S9/+10. The
R75 NB really helps, not the NR. Off by 0410 recheck. These say it`s
WTF Radio Worldwide, off at 0316 or 0317*
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,125408.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935 AM, Feb 11 at 0411, pirate music; QRM from
Spanish 2-way ``pesky`` about 6933.70 USB. These say it`s Trance Radio
on 6934.967:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,125411.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17 = virtual 17, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV signal
but certainly no local origination! Feb 11 at 0405 UT in a DTV
bandscan on the STB I encounter a `new` one labeled 30-9, Radio 74
`Audio only` but really leading to RF-17, while the other virtual 17s
no longer include Radio 74 audio - why in the world change it to
``30-9``? All the lower virtual 30s trace to RF 29 KTUZ Shawnee/OKC.
So it`s time for another survey of what`s really on K17JN-D, circa
0430 UT Feb 11. I suppose some of these might differ depending on time
of day?? But first, current info copied from rabbitears.info, quite
out of date:

17-1 17.1 K17JN-D 3ABN
17-2 17.2 QuoVida Amazing Facts TV

17-5 17.5 AmFacts 3ABN Music Radio
17-6 17.6 LLBN-EN Radio 74
17-7 17.7 3ABN-RL [Blank]

Here`s what I get: all display = virtual 17 except for 30-9!

17-1 K17JI-D* 3ABN *[STILL TYPOED WRONG!!!]

everything but an on-air station list! (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2229 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday February 11 at 0100 on WRMI 9955, S9 into Maryland SDR while
JBA in deep South America; no jamming audible.

Missed checking WA0RCR, 1860 AM until after 0500 when not heard past
0600 so probably and hope ran circa nominal 0415 UT Sunday Feb 11.

Missed checking Sun 1130 on WRMI 9955, zzz; anyone hear it? Next:

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Feb 11 at 0252 UT:
801, 855-2, 1044. The beat on 855 is 2.4 Hz, likely two from Spain;
mwoffsets shows 7 RNE outlets each on a slightly different frequency.
I see a couple 2.2 Hz apart. Plus two more in the master list. 801 is
unusual, but a het on 800 KQCV OK. There are a bunch of medium-powers
in Spain, 10/25 kW. For 100+ kW, only Iran and Ethiopia, unlikely.
1044 also likely Spain. Considerable local line noise level only these
could overcome even as JBA carriers; otherwise surely would have found
more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Feb 10 at 2300, LRA36 is on again,
tnx to advance notice from Adrián Korol of RAE via Manuel Méndez. My
favorite Argentine SDR is offline, so I bring up another one with a
rather noisy signal, but 2301 s/on M&W chatting. It`s quite distorted
too and hard to understand, maybe fault of rx not tx? 2327 I try
Brasília and find it just as bad, so transmitter fault. Too painful to
keep listening. By 0000 Feb 11 modulation improved but now someone is
on a lofi phone line. 0013 into lofi music, but still mostly talk with
some distortion; very rapid and colloquial conversation, rather than
broadcast-quality speech with clarity and comprehension in mind. 0029
check direct: audible at S4 about the same as noise level. Argentine
SDR also has intermittent high noise cutting on and off (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Sat Feb 10 at 1044 UT when I happen to awaken,
``The Moldau`` is just ending and program ID as `Gameplay` -- so that
reconfirms the secret programming Sats at 4-5 am CT i first ran across
a few weeks ago. Still not acknowledged by KUCO in skedgrid nor in
alfabetical program list. I search it out, to much more info and
access to episodes:
https://www.interlochenpublicradio.org/gameplay
https://exchange.prx.org/series/39230-gameplay
This was once on the KUCO sked during an evening waking hour before
the massive programming shuffle a few months ago. Still undiscovered,
what other secret program occupy the previous hour, Sat 3-4 am CST =
09-10 UT.

Another recent unexpected change. Lane Whitesell`s post-Met unnamed
vocal fill-music show has been reduced by an hour, ending Sat at 4 pm
= 22 UT, with 22-23 UT now occupied by `Footlight Parade` an hour
earlier than before with 23-24 UT now containing `Dinner and a Movie`,
more cinemusic which I hear for the first time today, but whence? On
Feb 10, Met was shorter than usual ending at 1950 UT after love-duets
for Valentine`s Day, so Lane still had plenty of time to fill.

Another2 change I had not noticed before but does show on sked:
`Classical Guitar Alive` Saturday at 14-15 UT = 8-9 am CT, while
`Performance Oklahoma` replay has shifted an hour later to 9-11 am CT
= 15-17 UT; axually usually more like a sesquihour, but allows for
variable lengths. Original airing is at 7 pm CT Thursdays = 01 UT
Fridays. I would like to think that the latening results from a
request I made months ago that 8 am was too early on a weekend.

Since Kimberly Powell resigned a year ago, the new host has been
relying more on recordings of UCO faculty members` own performances,
rather than live events - that`s OK if there aren`t enough for a new
liver every week. I find his announcing style annoyingly stilted,
sorry; and he also needs some foreign language study.

Note that despite its huge roster of programs, publicradiofan.com
still has NO listings for `Gameplay`, `Reel Music`, nor `Dinner and a
Movie`! Searching on the last title leads to loads of hits, all about
a cooking TV show on TBS, revived last year, surely something else!
Adding radio to the search gets it: out of KCME Colorado Springs:
https://exchange.prx.org/series/34434-dinner-and-a-movie
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. I sent this to Matt Rogers, host of `Reel
Music`, i.e. cinematic, which is on KUCO 90.1 Fridays at 2 pm and
Saturdays at 11 am CT = Thu 20 & Sat 17 UT:

``Enough snackbar --- Matt, Thanks for Reel Music, which I always
listen to on KUCO, sometimes twice. While the vintage snackbar
announcements were cute the first time, may I please ask you to phase
them out? We listen to public radio to avoid hard-sell commercials!
While these are all in fun, they do clash severely with the rest of
the program. Why not have a contemporary hi-fi, soft-sell, perhaps
female, voice record exactly the same texts and run those for a while?
Regards, (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK``, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.005, Feb 10 at 2303, VOT English not off the air,
S9+25/35 into UTwente. Final news item is about Turkish activity in
Antarctica on Dismal Island - or Disney? sounds like, and Horseshoe
Island; just as I am hearing LRA36 on another remote. 2310 into `The
Energy Agenda`, 2318 music. Too much else going on this hour to listen
continuously. 2349 more nice music. 2354 quick s/off as if the 1330 on

** U S A. 9475, Feb 10 at 1937, George McClintock calls for a
radiocheck as he has this WTWW frequency running. It`s rather weak and
fading here, maybe S6 before shutting off, while neighbor 9980 WWCR is
inblasting, S9+30. Says running about 40 kW on 9475, maybe less
favorable antenna than WWCR. Also says waiting on one part to get #1
transmitter going again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
