73, Glenn Hauser

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Tue Mar 24 at 2258, WRMI with `Top of Hour`
IS & ID; 2300 cut to JIP not RAE, but domestic R. Nacional ID with 8
pm timecheck, talk about stupid ballgames. 2302 show about ``vocación
nacional``. Usual VG sig aimed right at us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See
also USA

** ARGENTINA [and non]. 28398 USB, March 24 at 2217, LW3DG quick
contact with XE1RIA also audible, in Spanish, then LW3DG calling CQ in
English. QRZ.com: ``LW3DG Argentina flag Argentina, Eduardo Gómez, QTH
Postcard: Av Dardo Rocha 433 entre 4 y 5 Berazategui, CP: B 1884
Buenos Aires Argentina B 1884, Argentina`` with a lot about the
hassles of QSLing. And:

``XE1RIA Mexico flag Mexico, ADONIS IGLESIAS RODRIGUEZ, P. O. BOX
19-052, D.F. 03901, Mexico`` -- so call = initials in reverse order.

Only few other sigs audible on 10m but unlike yesterday not because of
S9 local high line noise level. A few hours after I left a message for
the OG&E noise guy, it`s greatly diminished to virtually S0: but I`m
afraid that`s coincidental. Still pretty high on LW (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11950, March 24 at 2212, RHC Spanish S9+10 with goodmod,
while // 11760 is S9/+10 with windhowl. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, March 25 at 0619, RHC S9+25 somewhat overmodulated in
Spanish, along with 9395 WRMI the SSOB by far (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, March 25 at 0633, R. Rebelde, S9+25 of dead air in
Spanish; next check 1355, no trace of a carrier. SAWA (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** HONDURAS. 28470 USB, March 25 at 2202, HQ9UM, YL op with quick
contacts, QRZ? At 2259 now an OM op, says power 900 watts. QRZ.com:
``HQ9UM Honduras flag Honduras, Theodore A "Ted" Krieger, 4593 Tally
Ho Trail, BOULDER, CO 80301, USA -- Violetta (KN2P), Ted (N7VZ), and
Mark (W7UM) operating from Roatan Island, Honduras (IOTA NA-057). 24
March - 31 March 2026, QRV for CQ WW WPX SSB`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MONTSERRAT. 28405 USB, March 25 at 2159, quick US contacts; must
be some contest. QRZ.com: ``VP2MPN Montserrat flag Montserrat, Corey
Landrum, Po Box 28432, Henrico, VA 23228, USA.
Island Hopper Group will be operating from Gingerbread Hill in St
Peters Montserrat for CQWW SSB``. The local line noise level on 10m
now is up to S6/S7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 5140 USB, Wed March 25 from 1400 UT, weekly net
opened by YL NCS this week, WSHM692, ``Oklahoma --?-- HF test net``,
counts 12345 54321, 30 second pause to tune your transmitters. Breanna
gives her ham call KM4UJS, otherwise WSHM692, and 1402 starts roll
call, each a second time if no answer first time, which the alternate
OM NCS does not do. Letters in calls always pronounced fonetikaly, and
mentions locations unlike the alternate OM NCS:
WQYW443, Beckham County ESP [or EFT? several with letters like this,
not sure of them];
WQZT582, Broken Arrow;
WQSY836, Byng EOC, Jeff ans, no traffic;
WNPV700, Durant ESP, Bill, no traffic, loud & clear;
WQYW883, City of Moore ESP, ans?;
WNUW216, Oklahoma City, Max[?];

WPFY721, Seminole EOC, Ernie ans;
WNBM839, Stillwater, Joe ans;

1409 informal QSO WNBE830 and WPFY721;
1410 Wild Bill in Durant contacts Ernie in Seminole, about weather,
housing, Silo school district, millage rate; WNPV700 slips and gives
his? ham call NR5X? unfonetik, before closing at 1415. But that is
someone else in Caddo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ST LUCIA. 21289 USB, Mar 25 at 2206, J62K, CQ and quick contest
contacts. Pauses between the 6 and the 2; so J6 is the prefix, not 62?
QRZ.com, with 13 strict rules for QSLing: ``J62K St Lucia flag St
Lucia, SLCC Saint Lucia Contest Club, Soufriere, St Lucia`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 12030 & 9690, Mar 25 at 2256, REE roughly equal good signals
direct, but 12030 less noisy even tho it`s aimed away from US, for
2300 token English on Wednesdays; much better than 17715 for S
America. The heavily accented M&W intro and 2301 news leading with PM
Sánchez expressing opposition to Drumpf`s war on Iran, likely to lead
to negative consequences for Spain. I expect Ken Zichi will report a
very detailed log of this hour, so I don`t have to (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TAIWAN [non]. 17790 // 15770, March 25 at 2212, R. Taiwán
Internacional via WRMI, equally VG S9+20/30 and S9+20, after contact
info, `Taiwán en 360 Grados`, interviewing visiting alcalde de
Belmopán, Belice (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 24 at 2300, VOT probably JBA direct opening
English, not off the air but sufficient into UTwente.

5960, March 25 at 2301, NO signal direct, and still no signal at 2338
into UTwente, just Chinese. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
No 9610 overrun either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2339 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
March 24 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.996, S9 into nearby
Noale SDR.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday March 25 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+30 into

``Glenn, WTWW 5085 will be up and running this Friday night and your
program, if nothing else bad happens --- still finishing repairs and
adding a new audio filter to reduce bandwidth. George McClintock
3-24-2026`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9930, March 25 at 1842, WTWW is unusually OFF, no TOMBS.
Propagation poor but WWCR 13845 & 12160 still inboom. All would be
SSOB. Greenvilles also audible but hardly strongs. 9930 back on at 2030
check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, March 25 at 2218 and still 2222, WRMI with S9+10 of
dead air - or trace of mod? or cross-mod. Not checked after 2230
whether still DA, but at 2255, presumably from usual 2250, the IS&IS
loop leading up to resuming programming at top-of-hour, which it does
with VORW since this is Wednesday. At 2330 keeps going rather than
chopped off like last weeks (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also
ARGENTINA [non]

** U S A. 7505, March 25 at 0625, WRNO still on, only S6/S7 with JBM
music, English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1330 kHz, March 25 at 2224 UT, routine daytime bandscan
notices that KNSS is quite undermodulated compared to neighbor of
approx. equal strength S9+10, 1340 KGHM MWC, or anything else; just as
it IDs as ``KNSS, Wichita`s #1 talk`` along with FM 98.7 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 0017 UT March 26

** BRAZIL. 28450 USB, March 23 at 2213, PY4JW quickly working US
stations, QRZ? Only a few phonesigs make it thru the local S9 high
local line noise level here. Must get the OG&E guy on it. A quick
multi-band scan MHz by MHz on the R75, finds the worst noise peaks on
28, 19, 8 down to 4 MHz. QRZ.com: ``PY4JW Brazil flag Brazil, JÉBER
WILKER COLARES, Rua Rio Pardo 244 - Centro, Taiobeiras-MG - Cep
39550-000, Brazil`` page full of certificates and antenna shots (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 13650, March 23 at 2306, CRI ``Portuguese`` music fill
via CUBA is missing; apagón aftermath saving the ChiCom some pesos?
Doubt it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 23 at 2224, RHC dead air with howl now here
instead of 15140 earlier in day; while 11880 is S9+10/30 in Spanish,
but somewhat undermod with hum. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, March 24 at 0630, RHC with S9 dead air with some hum;
and 11760, S7/9+20 of DA with windhowl. Ho, hum, the incompetence
prolongs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9800 USB, March 24 at 0213, S9+20 of Mix Radio
International with heavily produced IDs; tnx to this tip: ``[WOR] Mix
Radio International on 9800 USB as of 0200 UTC - This North American
pirate's playing electronic and contemporary music up in the 31-meter
band tonight. I'm hearing a very good signal via an SDR in Wisconsin.
Out here near Seattle where we're still pre-sunset, I'm getting just
barely audible music at times. Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens,
Washington USA. My QSL website: https://treehouseswl.mystrikingly.com
`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.5, March 23 circa 2340 UT, it`s been quite a while
since I have driven thru the intersexion of S. Cleveland & W. Owen K.
Garriott in Enid, where there has been the focal point of a very weak
pirate with rock music. Yes, it`s still there, undermodulated rock and
$ tereo pilot is on; barely enough to overcome the adjacent 95.7 local
and two fringe Okies on 95.5 itself. Never heard any announcements,
let alone ID, but never listened for more than a few minutes.
Meanwhile no signals around downtown on 93.1 or 95.1 today nor lately
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 16, Virtual 46, KOCM Norman OK, is only 27 kW ERP, and
usually not strong enough to decode thru my antenna, altho its main
channel is on coveted low cable channel 6. Gospel huxters. However,
when I am getting it direct with a bit of tropo help? I discover 46-3,
KOCM-SD which is Daystar Reflections [sic, no x`s here!], showing
scenes of nature with locations captioned, and quiet relaxing music,
not necessarily religious, with Bible verses - if you ignore those
intrusions, it`s quite pleasant. March 24 circa 0500 UT, after
watching only a couple hours, I hope I am correct that it`s 24/7 like
this? Here`s the full network listing:

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 23 at 2306, VOT is JBA direct, presumably in
English. Maybe will be much better from next week on 11785 at 2200
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2339 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday March 24 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+10 into S Texas SDR. Once
again a preceding talk program cut off abruptly at 0330; I have no
idea what it be. Need to check at 0300.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 24 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 24 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, by now degraded

** U S A. 5085, March 23 at 2140, George McClintock notifies me that
this WTWW transmitter is finally back on the air, so unless something
else go wrong, WORLD OF RADIO should appear UT Saturday at 0300. Not
on the air when I turn on right away, but is at 2200 into Georgia SDR
with `Scriptures for America`, S9+35, then cut modulation, so just
testing. At 2208 direct, S9+10/20 vs high local noise level. Off at
2303, but sked before fracasal was limited, only from 0100? But still
not back on air after 0100 or before 0300 March 24 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 15770, Mon Mar 23 at 2018, WRMI in Russian, S6/S8. Altho
have added some seculars like R. Liberty and WRN clients, this on
System G is `E. Bible Fellowship` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Mon Mar 23 at 2222, S9/+10 of dead air from WRMI-11
which skedgrid shows xmtr not starting until 2300 with System D. Nor
accounted for in any other System program grid. At 2300 starts to play
`Joy to the World`, harmonious version with guitar & chorus in
English; what? Xmas carols can`t be played in March! 2305 segué to
another song. Certainly not RAE relay in Portuguese as still
scheduled, nor in Japanese, Chinese or Spanish. What next? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1440 kHz, KPUR Amarillo: more about that as in previous log,
from radio-locator.com about its FM side: ``Claude, Texas, "Texas 95.7
the Armadillo", Station Format: Country, tell me about "Country"
stations, find more Country stations. https://www.957kpur.com/
:website``

Note: may well be the only station formerly named for an armadillo --
or was that a typo for Amarillo?! WTFDA FMDB finds none in the Slogan
field. BTW, we have a resident armadillo on our property; need to ask
if s/he be familiar with KPUR. See:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9695, March 24 at 0214, classical music, as first
reported by John Figliozzi, presumably still in Florida: ``9695 -
Classical music from an as yet undetermined and unlisted station
(China via Cuba perhaps?)`` - surely not, but I hear more of it at
0629, S5. Nothing at all listed at these times in Aoki, EiBi - could
it be a new A26 operation jumping the gun? Nothing there either nor in
B25 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2037 UT March 24

** CUBA. 11760, March 23 at 1407, RHC not off the air, S9+20 with good
modulation during song in English; also weaker 15140 S7/9+5 and not
too much windhowl? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880 & 15140, March 23 at 1858, RHC in Kriyol, about
S9+10/15 on both into Georgia SDR, but 15140 is JBM and 11880 slightly
overmodulated and distorted. Somethings always wrong at RHC, but
tolerable. Instead of cutting to dead air before English can start,
keeps modulating! 1859 IS, 1900 English opening previewing contents of
first [only] hour: News, Viewpoint, Science/Medical, Culture/Arts.
First news item about boats from Yucatán carrying aid for Cuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. March 23 0458+ UT, rapid MW bandscan hears warmongering
Mexican national anthem on all these, even if only buried in QRM: 590,
610, 690, 730, 900, 940, 1060 now it`s 0500, 1190, 1280, 1570, 1670
kHz. This is 11 pm HCM, i.e. immediately following `La Hora Nacional`
on UT Mondays; otherwise NAs more likely to play at local midnight,
which is 0600 UT except Texas border cities forced to observe American
CDT = 0500 UT. Identity obvious in most cases from major stations, but
what about: ?

590, XEPH in CDMX is biggest 25/10 kW, while closest XEFD Rio Bravo
does not NA per IRCA Mexican Log; two others. Immediately following ID
is time to snatch IDs. 0503 ``La estación más caliente?`, string of
government PSAs, 0504, ``esto es música continua`` - IRCA shows `La
Más Caliente` is a slogan of XEPH, a.k.a. Sabrosita.

610, XESORN Saltillo Coah is closest, 4 others

1280, XEAW Monterrey probably, but 4 others

Some other SS were not NAing as I tuned across: 660, 770, 1050.

By 0508 some more SS which may or may not have NAed: 860 lectura, 0510
music.

1090 at 0523 lectura on N/S antenna only and LSB required to avoid
KRLD IBOC noise peaking 1093; likely XEAU Monterrey.

1300 at 0525, song; two lowpower Texans are SS:REL, and WNQM Nashville
of WWCR has some Spanish. Three Mexicans led by XEP Juárez, 40 kW day
power, but night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, March 23 at 0452, anti-Christ pirate
Station YHWH, S9/+10 direct, thintonations of Josiah easily readable
but yawn. Some guys never tire of hearing him, hi (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Sent to KUCO 90.1: ``What is going on? This weekend I
have heard several IDs for KUCO/KBCW/KCSC, the relays you disposed of
a year ago. Inserted within programs; were you playing back old
airchecks? For example, Sunday at 10:20 am {1520 UT} inside Sunday
Baroque? Monday 6:33 am {1133 UT} during Concierto, and why was it
playing then? Monday at 1:21 am {0621 UT} ending From the Top, NPR,
evidently from year 2019, IDs and starting Wind & Rhythm. Why at these
hours? And why don`t you include on your program schedule what`s
really airing at 12-6 am, especially weekends? Regards, Glenn Hauser,

Reply: ``Thank you for your email Glenn. KUCO had a connection failure
that links the studios to the tower forcing our station to play backup
audio for on-air and streaming. We have since corrected the issue.

** U S A. 1440, March 23 at 0532 UT, C&W dominating, something new?
Then ``Amarillo`s home for independent country music``, ad for Glenrio
town on NM border; ``Texas 95-7 KPUR``. Seems the 1440 has been off
for quite a while. First noted in MWCircle:

``KPUR Amarillo TX 1440 on air again - From: Bjarne Mjelde Date: Sun,
22 Mar 2026 19:32:17 UTC - Haven't seen any posts in here about it,
but according to the FCC info they resumed operations on March 11.
Heard here at the KONG-HQ in Arctic Norway with 95.7 liners and
mentions of 957kpur.com, likely on day power the last two nights. C&W
format. -- From the world's northernmost DX-er, Bjarne Mjelde, Arctic
Norway, kongsfjord.no, arcticdx.blogspot.com`` and in IRCA, Paul
Walker suggests they turned it on to preserve license, i.e. allowed
silent time about to expire, so we`ll hear if it vanish again. It had
been off for almost a year. KPUR is U2 5/1 kW, no longer farm/talk/ag
format ``all ag all day``; night pattern favors NW/SE put plenty to NE
not notched. 100 kW 95.7 is licensed to Claude, which is ESE of
Amarillo on US287 on the way to Clarendon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, March 23 at 0517, JBA carrier, presmed RV here
instead of 7260 yet; by 0653, S5/S7 music on 7260 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4810, March 23 at 0456 carrier but can`t pull any
modulation even by LSB tuning to avoid Martinique uteblob. Presumably
R. Logos, Chazuta, Perú, only thing in Aoki but 0900-2330/2400; rather
in EiBi at 0815-1500 & 2100-0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4850, March 23 at 0458, JBA carrier. Maybe Europirate?
Nothing listed now, and around noon in Xinjiang but which is JB
audible 5/6 hours earlier when Kazakhing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 1948 UT March 23

** CHINA [non?]. 7500, UT Sat March 21 at 2220, talk in Chinese?,
music, S9+10 direct vs noise level of S9+10. 11575, at 2221, S9 sounds
the same but not attempted to match //. EiBi shows 7500 at 2200-2230
daily? VOA Mandarin via Philippines, and CNR1/Firedrake jamming at
same time M-F only. And 11575 at 2200-2230 only, RFA in Mandarin via
PHT, no CNR1/Firedrake jamming. Aoki shows both VOA and nothing about
*jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, March 21 at 2214, RHC Spanish, S9+10/20 with windhowl,
// clear 11760 at 2217, S9/+10 direct. Shortly after this there was
another severe blackout. At 0642 March 22, 5025 is off nor any RHC
frequencies found; nor at 1450. By 1929, S7/8 carriers only on 15140,
11880, not 11760, so some power is back on for RHC to waste (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. 5890.3, March 22 at 0054, Farsi? presumed Iran
International TV via BULGARIA, as previously reported on this
splitaway from original 5885, S7/S8. WWCR 5890 not a problem, not on

** MEXICO. 1090, March 22 at 0104 UT, poor S9 of Spanish talk only; no

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, March 22 at 1520 UT on KUCO webcast, amid `Sunday
Baroque`, IDs for 90.1 KUCO but also the two satellites it sold off a
year ago to gospel huxters, KBCW 91.9 McAlester and KCSC 95.9
Woodward. Playback of entire program from back then? WTFDA FMDB shows
91.9 call now KJAL, but still as relay of classical KUCO --- NOT! And
95.9 as KJAR, ditto! Radio-locator.com shows owner of 91.9 is now The
Christian Center Inc., unknown! format. But it still has 95.9 as KCSC
relaying KUCO! Broad search on owner name leads to KJRF Lawton, `King
Jesus Reigns Forever`, on 91.1, which is the flagship no doubt relayed
by the others; none of which I have heard, nor care to. KJAL & KJAR
slogans now no doubt King Jesus + something; ideas? Website of KJRF
but nothing about the others?
https://lawtonchristiancenter.org/our-radio-station
Broad search also leads to a listing for KJAL 91.9 at rabbitears.info
- I did not realize that covers FM as well as TV:

But not for KJAR (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2338 monitoring: ``9395 UNITED
STATES (FL) WRMI at 2330. WoR confirmed, but we weren't able to copy
content (too far west here for 31 meters this hour). We confirm WoR
bc the one thing that did come thru was recognizable voice of Glenn
Hauser. Thinking here the program was better at timezones east of
here. --- Noted 3/18 (Rick Barton-AZ)``

Germany, 3975, fair into recommended Barney SDR in Bedford UK.

S3/S4 into Brasila.

Sat Mar 21 at 2335, WRMI 9455 with gospel huxter instead of deadair,
so maybe the anomaly has been fixed allowing WOR to be heard again

webcast only.

** U S A. (12160), Sat Mar 21 at 1700 on WWCR-2 webcast, `Talking
Machine Show` which is mostly musicking rather than talking, host Phil
Patton at 1705 thanks Mr Glenn Hauser for some nice comments about his
show in DX Listening Digest - shows you how ancient this tape be - I
remember hearing the same shout-out some time ago, probably same
episode, never explicitly numbered nor dated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15150, March 22 at 1450, WMLK is only S9 in severely

storms (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re KTALDT 6-1, RF26 Shreveport DTVDX, as rabbitears.info
reminds us, community of license is Texarkana TX - not AR - not that
it matters, but operates out of Shreveport LA, market sharing, and
site in LA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
