** AUSTRALIA. 10124 USB, May 17 at 0628, ragchew hamnet of Oz accents,
more unID VKs in the Aussie-only phone subband on 29 m, 10120-10135
kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9667.177V, May 17 at 0635, RVM music, carrier wobbling
audibly but still exceeding 9667 from nominal 9665 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 13680, May 17 at 2001, RHC theme JBA and sounds like
Portuguese/Brasilian. This frequency is still missing from EiBi and
Aoki tho I reported it some time ago. Is anyone paying attention?
15140, May 17 at 2002, RHC definitely in Brazuguese, S6/S8 but not //
13680. Maybe two separate playouts. Aoki is way out of date, still
showing winter timing for English on 15140 at 2000-2100. EiBi on 15140
at 2000-2030 shows French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EGYPT. 9439.995, May 17 at 2201, R. Cairo still in extremely
distorted English, plus hum S9+30/40 into UTwente. As Alan Holder
quipped, ``something`s always amiss at Abis``, but that does not do
this justice; rather, ``egregious in Egypt`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SRI LANKA. Correxion to typo in frequency as ``15709.079``! Delete
original report and replace with:
15709.979, May 16 at 1447, JBA carrier. Scheduled is AWR Chinese via
Trincomalee on ``15710`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 17 at 0500-0506, UR1 via WRMI, day 82 of
Russia`s war, `Ukraine: Security Issue` in English (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A. ``Glenn, the WRMI spurspikes below 9455 have been going on
for at least a couple of weeks. I can hear them well up to 150 kHz
below fundamental when reception is good. One night they pretty much
ruined otherwise decent reception of BBCWS via SMG at 0500 on 9410.
Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` as of May 13. Also, typo in my report
as ``9355`` instead of correct 9335, spurs heard even next to WBCQ
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15770, Tue May 17 at 1930, VOA News via WRMI, and 1935
`Flashpoint: Ukraine` dated today, not Mon May 16 edition which got
lost, since 72-hour-previous Fri May 13 edition played yesterday.
S9/+10 into Maryland SDR. But followed by another anomaly at 2000,
faux-time-signal and VORW, John claiming it be Sunday May 15 on 5850
doing a full new show tho did not feel well (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5130, May 17 at *0155, WBCQ IS & ID loop, just reactivated
for first time, ex-4790 for Radio Angela. S9/+5 into Maryland SDR
reading -22 Hz = 5129.978 as every Classic `BCQ frequency must be at
least slightly askew. At 0200 starts `Marion`s Attic`. We have now
escaped CODAR QRM and the uteblaaps! No QRM to 5130, but still some
storm crashes inevitably in spring/summer. Yet listenable, and better
than the original 7490v airing too early at 21 UT Fridays. 0300 next
show is `Bluegrass State of Mind`. Or, is it ``Mine``? 5130 ex-4790 of
course also applies to WORLD OF RADIO at 0400 UT Saturdays.
4790, from 0343 I inspect the ex-frequency via same remote: the
uteblaaps are still there visible on waterfall and/or audible, once a
minute near :00 and also near :42 past each minute. One at a time, in
three different positions: below, right on, or above, 4790. They too
are now free of WBCQRM - you`re welcome (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, May 17 at 0145, NO signal from WRNO which nominally
starts at 0100. Also missing last night. Previous report to the WOR
iog:

``[WOR] WRNO 7505 missing --- For the 2nd night in a row, I note that
WRNO is missing from their usual 7505 frequency. Walt`` Salmaniw, BC,
0218 UT May 16. This is not unusual: WRNO may disappear for nights or
weeks at a time for no obvious reason: technical or operational?
