** COLOMBIA? 4940, Nov 16 at 0235, anonymous mystery missionary
station, gospel huxter with dramatizations, S9/+10. In the NASWA
Flashsheet, editor Mark Taylor in WI agrees it`s still anonymous:
``4940, 2359, 11/12-13/20. Hymn through ToH, 1 beep, man announcer
with talk about faith then woman with news or actualities. No ID or
program name noted at ToH`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [non]. 6125, Sun Nov 15 at 2324, no signal from R. Martí ---
that`s because per HFCC it`s scheduled only M-F 2300-0400 Tue-Sat.
Instead there is something in Chinese, i.e. CNR from SZG site (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 9535, Nov 16 at 0656, JBA talk not // RHC English
on 6 MHz frequencies, altho this RHC Spanish frequency has been known
to run overtime in English. Instead it must be R. Ndarason
International about to switch sites from Woofferton to Ascension.
9535, Nov 16 at 1555 however, now it is RHC, S9 but undermodulated.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, Nov 16 at 1524, RHC music is S9 but just barely
modulated, while 15140 is S9 and merely undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13566 & 13836 approx., Nov 16 at 1503, traces of spurblob
second-order mixing products with F# tone, and much stronger
first-orders about 13633 & 13768, i.e. about 67-68 kHz displacements
and multiples, out of RHC 13700 which is undermodulated S7-S9.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY [non]. 9570, Nov 16 at 0657, African talk and music at
S6-S9 until chopoff at 0659*. It`s DW in Hausa from 0630 via FRANCE
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NICARAGUA. 8989-USB, Sun Nov 15 at 2325, fisher-preacher VP at S5,
with applause? mixed with band noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6934.9-AM, Nov 15 at 2319, unID JBA carrier
typically piratical; numerous reported previously in HFUnderground but
none currently (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA [and non]. 7220, Nov 15 at 2318, RRI English now more
audible under Vietnamese talk & music bed, totalling S9+30.
Theoretically, per HFCC, RRI should dominate, 300 kW at 300 degrees
from Galbeni altho not intended beyond UK, while CRI Vietnamese is 500
kW, 190 degrees from Xi`an toward Vietnam.
9415, Nov 15 at 2327, then I find CRI Vietnamese loud and clearer
here, S9+35, which is 500 kW southward from Beijing site (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SLOVENIA. 18118-USB, Nov 16 at 1521, S57DX calling CQ 17, fonetix
alternating Sierra with Sugar for first letter, then working a K2.
This ham continues to be the dominant Eurosig on 18 MHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960, Sun Nov 15 at 2323, no signal from VOT English to
North America; something`s always erroneous at Emirler; nor yet any
signal from Urumqi 5960-, East Turkistan, land of ChiCom brainwashing
Uyghurs, nominally starting at *2330 per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 392-MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0712 UT, mixture of two 25-watt ND
beacons at different pitches: FMZ, which is from Fairmont - Beklof,
Nebraska [spelt backwards: Aksarben, Folkeb]; and ML, from Monroe,
Louisiana.
385-MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0714 UT, ND beacon HO, which is 200 watts from
Hot Springs, Arkansas. I was tuned to 383-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2060 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday November 16 on WRMI 7730, VG here.
Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, poor S7-S8 here but
good S9+5 at UTwente Holland SDR where it`s aimed.
Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, S9+15 at UTw; and
also S9+15 on 5800 into TWR Bonaire SDR where it`s aimed. Also almost
synchro on WRN webcast.
Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 from 0402 on Area 51 webcast, while WBCQ
6159.9 is JBA direct; inaudible at closer SDRs in VA and NY, but good
S9+15 into Warrenton MO SDR, which must be at ideal skip distance from
Maine.
Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0430 on WRMI 9955, good S8 into
Bonaire SDR where it`s aimed, no jamming audible. Next:
1900vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
0200 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE [NEW]

** U S A. 5950, Nov 15 at 2321, WRMI-5 is back on, presumed the weak
S6-S9 in unknown English program, after several days absent since Nov
11. Still no mention of 5950 going & coming on disgraced FB of WRMI.
This might have been helpful for hearing Ethiopia, but Manuel Méndez,
Spain reports Nov 16: ``5950, Voice of Tigray Revolution, Addis Ababa,
seems to be out of air for more than a week`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 3215, Nov 16 at 0020, gospel huxter, so WWRB has belatedly
made its B-season QSY from 5050 for weekend-only emissions. By 0316
recheck has flipped to 3185, S9+20 more of same, not TOMBS. Probably
from 0200 when WWCR-1 has dibs on 3215. It was not clear whether WWRB
would use 3185 or 3195 this season, both registered. 3185 was once
exclusively for Brother HyStairical, but now long gone as a WWRB
client (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. 5980, Nov 16 at 0647, mixture of PMS from 5935 and
BS from 5890, audible under Cuban jamming, i.e. leapfrog mixing
product of the two WWCRs landing here another 45 kHz beyond, where the
Cubans cannot be too careful, lacking a Radio Martí to jam, just in
case wacky yanqui religionists in English make inroads into Cuban SWLs
who would not be listening to them in the clear on the fundamentals.
Something`s always excessive at the Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** VENEZUELA. 6906v-RCUSB, Nov 16 at 0235, still no signal from ROCV
into Bonaire SDR. Manuel Méndez, Spain, explains Nov 16: ``6906, R. O.
C. V., El Tigre, seems to be out of the air for at least two days. I
have contacted the station staff and they confirm that they are off de
air due to a transmitter power failure`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Nov 16 from 0701,
this time tuning down in LSB from +1 kHz above 9-kHz channels: 1215,
1107, 1089, 909, 882(2), 855(2), 837, 774(2), 756, 747, 693, 684, 621,
612, 558.
At 0709 on 846, a fast beat between two, one of which would assumedly
be TP from Kiritimati, but what else? Best W Europe can do at this
late hour is 3 kW from Ireland, R. North; maybe a high-power E Asian
already at this early hour like 250 kW Taiwan? or 2 kW from NZ barely
around summer sunset? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
