** ANTARCTICA [non]. Any RNASG? Did not get around to checking for
LRA36 this Wednesday Sept 22 until 1608 UT: NO signal on
15475.98-RCUSB into Brasil SDR. Has it come and gone already; did
anyone hear it or try to earlier? Yes: Sam Sánchez, Oregon replies on
WOR iog:
``Subject: Re: [WOR] Antarctica today? --- I caught them today via
Brazil SDR around 1550 UTC, off at the top of the hour-ish. Nothing
via Iceland. Sorry for the inexact times - I was multi-tasking. ;-)``
Then I tuned down to 15475.00-USB to detect a reduced carrier if any,
none, but at 1609 Sept 22 there is very brief 2-way in Spanish
INTRUDING on that exact frequency. Will leave it there for a while.
Another longer contact at 1617, but colloquial and can`t understand.
Probably these nothing to do with Antarctica (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9665.968V, Sept 22 at 2354, gospel huxter in Brazuguese,
S5-S8; RVM is getting closer & closer to a full kHz off nominal.
Frequency wobbling slightly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-USB, Sept 22 at 2358, dense rock music at
S8-S9; 2405 YL ID as Mix Radio, International. 6940-6945 area is
normally avoided due to ute bonker circa 6942 but none of that now.
More reports here including from MRI herself:

``Thanks for tuning in to MRI. Just doing a test after restoring my
windows backup partition out to the stream TX remote location. I am
still working on the QSL’s from the classical show. Doing a little
over 8k audio. « Last Edit: September 22, 2021, 2359 UTC by M R I »``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 11940, Wed Sept 22 at 2200, same via Maryland and UTwente
SDRs, this is the only useful frequency for token English, but it`s
distorted like on Monday, not Tuesday. It`s more tolerable in AM mode
than in SSB. 11670 is JBA and no better into Kuwait or S Africa; while
17855 and 15520 are inaudible at all locations, likely off the air
rather than MUFed out. First news about the La Palma volcano; 2208
feature interview with a woman from Colombia who studied film scoring
in Boston and now is in Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 22 at 2210, VOT English already with 2-minute
filler of multilingual IDs, 2222 `Feeling Supreme` seems to be program
name; then a commentary another announcer is having trouble reading in
English. But signal is super into UTwente: S9+55! by the time it gets
into Maryland, only S9/+10 but still plenty, no QRM audible (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2104 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St.

Confirmed here, Wed Sept 22 at 1045 the 1030 on WRMI 5850, VG direct
as I happen to awaken -- and I belatedly notice that in the mid-break,
I mess up my own address, PO Box number as ``6184`` instead of 1684!!
Am I becoming lysdexic? Am I losing it? This bodes ill for continuing
to broadcast a program full of numbers. I hope no one really try to
reach me at that misbox! But no one else has noticed?
Also confirmed Wed Sept 22 direct at 2100 on WRMI 7780, JBA VP S5-S7;
21 seconds later on WBCQ 7489.9v, also S5-S7 but by 2128 the latter
has improved to S8/S9+5. Next, and last:
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW [news]
