Operations Security Net [or something like that], NCS WSHM692 OM voice

really the same *station*, or just the NCS call for whoever be in
charge this week? Counts 123454321, allows ``30 seconds to tune
transmitters``. Rollcall of each call once, not twice like Breanna
does, and does not mention locations. I am referring to previous

S9+20/40 into Georgia SDR, and almost as good on 12030 & 17715, still
zero on 17755. Heavily accented opening billboard has someone sayinf
``Trump Always Chickens Out``, altho tacos are more Mexican than
Iberian. I wonder if someone who obviously understands English so well
could with a bit more effort, even out his heavy Spanish accent?
Listen to VOA more -- o, not any more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

probably just started at 1800, S9 into UTwente, still going at 1837,
1849 chex. No jamming audible. I recorded brief segment probably for
WOR 2338. This was originally on 7910 USB, and attracted a lot of
attention, is it from Iran, or against Iran? ``Thanks to info from the
priyom.org monitors, this numbers station has moved to 7842 kHz at
18:00 from March 7. Unjammed (so far!) Alan Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of

WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Tue March 10 at 2307, NO signal of VOT into UTwente.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. But at next check 2319,
S9+30/40 of Turkish-sounding song, but only .002 kHz high, making me
suspect it`s East Turkistan which starts around 2310, but then I can
hear its weaker undersignal. And 2323 clinching it, ``TRTVorld of
news`` promo and `Conflict Zones in Africa`, how affected by Iran war.
Music break and at 2337 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, 2343
``always-by-your-side`` promo; 2352 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2354

skedgrids; xmtr sked for WRMI-13 shows switch from red System F to
blue System D at 0330. República is nowhere on WRMI`s Okee senders,
just via ISS France, 9490, and not at this hour or day, only 02-03 UT
Sat/Sun/Mon.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 10 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S7/9+15 direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 10 at 1425 the 1400 on WRMI 9955, S7/9+5

Ron Howard was hearing it on 9960 as early as 0235 and as late as 0458
via NZ remote (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7654-7715 approx., March 10 at 0618, very wideband 61

This report dispatched at 0024 UT March 11

** ANGUILLA. 28347 USB, March 9 at 2327, VP2EWE calling QRZ, quick

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Mon Mar 9 at 2259, WRMI IS & IDs leading up
to ToH programming, then 2300 RAE relay opens in Chinese. But at 2340
check it`s JBM at S9+25/30 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, March 9 at 0442, S9+10/20 of dead air; and 11760, at
0444, S9+30 of DA plus windhowl. Another check at 0623: 9710 S9 DA,
11760 S9+25 DA+howl, from RHC, where something is always wrong (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 11610, March 9 at 1527, NHK IS at S5, prior to Hindi at
1530-1550 and after Bengali at 1500-1520, per EiBi - does Yamata stay
on for the entire 10-minute break? Both 300 kW due west at 270
degrees, but HFCC shows Bengali at 1500-1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 11825, March 9 at 0446, soul music S9+10/20, then
devotional in American English about Jesus, ``making a difference in
Africa``. It`s MWV with African Pathways Radio during this hour for
central Africa at 295 degrees so more or less thisaway beyond. I
assume produced in Franklin TN as on the last line of page 636 of WRTH
2026 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185-, UT Mon March 9 at 0430, ID as ``Cultura México,
señal internacional de Radio Educación`` and `Sintonía Libre`, a
DX/media show, instead of `La Hora Nacional` supposedly carried by all
XE stations, especially government ones, Sundays at 10 pm (and which I
did confirm at 0454 on XERF 1570). Two YLs intro show, about ``la
mejor de las telecomunicaciones`, with or about Solano, radio in Costa
Rica, Paraguay with Daniel García Gómez; red social, etc. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 28415 USB, March 9 at 2345, XE1ADY, quick contacts, has
trouble copying callsigns, high-pitched voice, child or YL? QRZ.com:
``XE1ADY Mexico flag Mexico, WhatsApp 5533753863, YUDIANA "YUDY"
TORRES CLEMENTE, GARDENIA L1 MZ13 COL.MINAS PALACIO, Naucalpan estado

to Mar 15, 2026`` -- WWA means World Wide Award, and prompted by
International Women`s Day March 8 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9025 AM, March 9 at 1529, S5 introducing JFK and a
few words from his speech. Such a time on workdays is prime for this
`presidential pirate`. Someone should TDOA/DF it, as exposing its
source should not be a problem if it be a government contractor, not
subject to FCC enforcement. UDXF frequency list page 723 shows on 9025
numerous USAF stations at home and abroad, but no mention of this
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 93.7, March 9 circa 2045 UT, KSPI-FM Stillwater missing
in routine bandscan while driving around Enid. Not to be confused with
94.3 translator of 780 KSPI (AM) which is occasionally marginally
audible here (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A. 379 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0632 UT, RU, 25-watt NDB at

Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 397 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0644 UT, JE, 25-watt NDB `Algoa`,
JeffErson City MO, alternating/mixing with 395 CA, 25-watt NDB
`Harvs`, Newton KS, as I am axually tuned to 395 USB (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 410 MCW kHz, March 9 at 0648 UT, BA, 25-watt NDB `Clifs`,
Columbus IN; rarely audible vs noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2337 monitoring: also confirmed
Sunday March 8 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.997, S7.5/8 into
UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2234 the 2230 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, 3975.001+, S8/9+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2300 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/15 into
Knoxville remote; ex-0000 in standard season.

Not confirmed Sunday March 8 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, S9+15/20 of dead
air into Knoxville. I notified Jeff White by 2340, and at 2350 started
IS & ID loops, ``regular programming resumes at top of the hour``.
Which it does at 2400 with `Wavescan`. Unclear if a mistake or a
seasonal change, since 9455 is still on the System D schedule from
2300 including WOR at 2330 Sunday. The overall skedgrid page is now
dated March 8, but individual blox of it are not necessarily updated!
On Monday March 9, 9455 was signing on at 2259.

Confirmed UT Monday March 9 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into
Knoxville SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 9 after 0100 on Global Community Radio
1 webcast.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 9 from 0309 the 0300v on Area 51
webcast, as preceding rock music show, not JL this week, ran over,
despite being chopped off SW WBCQ 5130 at 0300 sharp.

Also confirmed Monday March 9 at 2030 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
3975.001-, S8/9+5 into UTwente. Next:

** U S A. 1080, March 9 at 0502 UT, huge deadair signal obviously KRLD
Dallas, finally comes to life at 0506 as ``NewsRadio 1080, 24-hour
breaking news center``. Well, I`ve got some broken news for you: CBS
news on the hour was suppressed, and you didn`t notice? During that it
also seemed the IBOC noise peaking on 1067 & 1093 was missing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1090, March 10 at 0013-0017 UT, weak talk signal via E/W
longwire, no change at all circa 0015, which is local sunset time for
March at KAAY Little Rock, and signal ought to drop out here, but only
if there be one in the first place. I have been trying to confirm its
new operation. There is a SAH between two weak signals of 76/minute,
or 1.27 Hz. But I don`t see any clear 1.3 Hz differences between
likely 1090 stations at https://mwlist.org/mwoffset.php?khz=1090 --
such as KAAY, KEXS, KMXA, XEAU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1290, March 9 at 0459 UT, ad for upgrading kitchens with a
309 area code, and fading during ID, WIRL, Peoria IL; U4 5/5 kW (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1430 kHz, March 9 at 0456 UT plugging an April arts event at
Cathedral high school in Houston, so KSHJ, U4 5/1 kW; altho address in
San Antonio. I assume call alludes to ``sacred heart of Jesus`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0258 UT March 10

** CUBA. 11760, Sun Mar 8 at 1501, RHC with Esperanto theme and
opening, still giving long-gone first time of 0800 Sunday on 6100;
this, the second one and third time not copied, but likely all wrong
too. Anyhow, this confirms that as a Running Dog of Yankee
Imperialism, Cuba has indeed switched from EST to EDT of UT -4, since
Esperanto had been at 1600v UT. Must keep in step with the gusanos in
Miami! Otherwise I have not heard a live timecheck yet on any Cuban
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9660.018, Sun Mar 8 from 1744, VOT with `Letterbox`,
S9+15/25 into UTwente. Very little intro by Cemre, right into mail: 1)
Mr --? Albanese, Palermo, Sicily, heard Italian on 11970. 2) Anatoly
Klepov, Moscow, weekly report, wants March QSL. 3) Chris Marbov?, Port
Alberni BC; had Chinese QRM to 9610. 4) Mr Jian? Chiang?, Guangzhou,
again mispronouncing ou as oo instead of oh, a 14-year-old Cantonese
or was it 40? 5) Shivanda? Pol?, secretary of a radio club in W
Bengal. At 1757 OTH clikQRM starts, worse on lower side, diminished
but not banished by USB tuning. 6) Maurizio --?, Rome with ham call.
7) A physical letter! from Annan? Bayn?, president of SWL club in
India. Ran a quiz about VOT, what`s it called in Turkish, how many
langs on SW? was 25, now 26 with Uzbek, and about that lang. Cemre
says they read *all* the letters and emails on the program -- which
means they don`t get much! 8) Mr Francis Waller?, Dublin, Ireland.
1808 ending, contact info, 1809.6 theme (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO monitoring: confirmed Sunday March
8 at 0730 UT on WRN via WRMIs: 5850 S9+20/25; 5950 on again for this
but not other nights, S9+25/30; 7570 S9+25 undermodulated compared to
the others; 7730 JBA; 7780 S9, all direct. DST ostensibly started at
0700 UT in FL, 2 am EST renamed 3 am EDT, but did not affect these
broadcasts.

Also confirmed Sunday March 8 at 1138 the 1130 on WRN via WRMIs 7780
S8/S9; but S9+30 of dead air on 7570, still so at 1150. Not heard on
any other WRMI frequencies.

Also confirmed Sunday March 8 until 1500 on CKUT Montreal webcast --
huh? https://ckut.ca/listen-live/ Sheldon Harvey & Gilles Letourneau
had a last-minute problem uploading their own International Radio
Report and asked to run latest WOR instead this week. Glad to be of
help. Sheldon says, ``I have to say it was really neat to hear WOR
coming over CKUT's airwaves! We are going to re-record our IRR show
today and post it on our YouTube channel, even though it didn't air on
CKUT. Sheldon Harvey, Greenfield Park, Quebec``

** VIETNAM [non]. Re my 1480 log mentioning KNGO Dallas: Ngo is a
common? name, or once well-known, as in Ngo Dinh Diem or rather, Ngô
Đình Diệm, a president of Vietnam South. But what does ngo mean as a
word? Google translate says `dainty` without any accent, but with the
circumflex, means ``corn``. Now we know. There are websites trying to
explain exactly how to pronounce his full name. It seems that the
crossed-D is like English D, while the plain D is more like our J - or
``dj``. There is huge info about him at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ngo_Dinh_Diem -- but does KNGO Dallas
callsign allude to him, to dainty, or to corn? The 1560/1480 website
