** ANTARCTICA. Correxion: the surprise was Sat Dec 4 not Wed; fixed:
15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Dec 11 at 1523 & 1556 chex, NO signal from LRA36
into Brasil remote, despite surprise appearance last Sat Dec 4 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, UT Sun Dec 12 at 0735, RHC English S9+30 here while all
other frequencies are off, music show. RHC does feature some good
music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ITALY. Advance publicity that AM Italia, 918 kHz would also be
broadcasting on LW 207 kHz on Dec 12 to mark the 120th anniversary of
Marconi`s trans-Atlantic transmission from Cornwall to Newfoundland.
207 would run 1 kW into a 350-meter wire antenna.
Via Noale SDR near Villa Estense, Dec 12 at 0618 UT, traces of a
carrier on 207 kHz, while on 918 I hear some tones, and Italian
narration about the historical event. S, ... in CW over and over again
at 0624. Maybe this is a loop. 0625 brief announcement about this in
English, offering QSL. And repeat the Italian. At 0628 on 207 sounds
like the same thing, but very poor unreadable there with hashy QRM,
and then fast CW QRM, maybe image on that SDR.
Some Europeans could hear 207 with difficulty, and the same was also
reported on 918; and 1323 kHz, which is not listed in WRTH 2021 as
anywhere in Italy. The loop may continue thruout Dec 12 and into Dec
13 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, Dec 12 at 0253, soft jazz at S7-S9. 0257 ID
by YL as ``--- Radio``. These say it`s Ball Smacker Radio:

gone at 0410 recheck. At 0253 also had JBA carriers on 6925-, 6920,
6885. HFU indicates usuals 6925 Coastal Rock R, 6920 R. Pushka but
nothing on 6885 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 11940, Dec 12 at 1552, no signal from REE frequency for S
America, which ought to be detectable, since 11670 for Africa is, as
well as 12030 ME, 9690 NAm, but all VP with silly ballgame (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
