** CANADA [and non]. Still researching IDs etc., of the huge sporadic
E FM DX opening from Saskatchewan, Alberta, Montana, July 14 1702-1953
UT. Hope to be done in time for next report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6100 & 6165, July 15 at 0617, RHC English both S9/+10 and
undermodulated; again 6060 algo JBA; 6000 off; 5040 in Spanish.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11850, July 16 at 0128, RHC is a steady S9+20 but JBM and
suptorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 7435 & 7335, July 15 at 0612, Radio Martí again on
extended schedule and atop jamming, also weaker 6030 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 7133-LSB, July 15 at 0612 unreadable QSO in
Spanish, and not much else on this part of 40m band, except for
amorphous weak jamming sounds as Ryan Ellegood had forwarded a
K0LWC Youtube report that Cuba had started jamming in the ham band.
Listening to it myself, it`s rather like what seems to be spurious
jamming in the broadcast bands, so can`t be sure it`s intentional, but
spurs from R Martí frequencies above 7.3 MHz seem unlikely. I find
sort of peaks circa 7105, 7120, 7130, 7140, 7157 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. OG&E crew from OKC finally came July 15 between 14 and 18
UT trying to locate source of the S9 line noise level I have been
suffering for a month or so, from LW thru MW and most of the SW range.
But they could not find it; offered to come back soon if it get worse
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** U S A. No FM DX today, but a bit of sporadic E beaconing on 10m,
July 15 at 1737: 28286+ partial copy before fadeout, surely:

18`` as heard several times before; and definitely:
28245.2, July 16 at 1740, VVV DE K0WKT/B IA IA IA 5W with call
repeated several times; per WJ5O list:
``28.2453 KØWKT ? MAY CITY, IOWA # 5W, VERTICAL New 25 July 2018``

First airings confirmed UT Fri July 16 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5800 S9+20/30
and 7780 S8/S9, but both with considerable storm noise from Kansas
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9330+, July 16 at 0421, WBCQ back on here, tnx to tip from
Dave Zantow, WI, but it`s surely not the broken #6 500 kW transmitter,
rather one of their ``classic`` units as Walt Salmaniw, BC also
agrees; I try Maine SDR first where it`s too close anyway and JBA
carrier; no better at Rochester NY; but near Washington DC it`s VP
S4-S5 presumably with WLCR flatearthiness, and in SAM mode varying
plus 12-15 Hz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 3215, July 15 at 0610, TOMBS is back on WWCR-1, missing
yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
