** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Aug 13, via Buenos Aires remote
start listening at 1440, but nothing until cuts on S7/S9 at 1523 amid
music, 1524 formal sign-on, quadrilingual, for this ``Ciclo Radial
2022 Esperanza Audaz``, staff names and themesong. 1529 historical
items; 1532 song; 1535 ``Radio Arcángel San Gabriel, su compañía``,
then ``live`` YL chat starting with María, for this programa No. 15 of
Esperanza Audaz, referring to other bases, some transitory, about
Melchior this time, as same stuff I heard on Wednesday. So I suspend,
especially since a 137 MHz sporadic E patch east of here beckons me to
the FMDX caradio --- yet nothing but tropofringers. Recheck for LRA36
at 1605, off already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9664.935, Aug 13 at 0619, RVM with music; has been fairly
stable around here for several nights (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 9818.791, Aug 13 at 0630, presumed R 9 de Julho, JBA on
signature skewed frequency and slightly wavering. Last measurement a
dekanight ago was .793, margin of error (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15140, Aug 13 at 1701, RHC Spanish, distorted. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UTwente but extremely distorted suppressed modulation. Something`s
always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 95.3, Sat Aug 13 at 1545 UT, // 1520, KOKC
translator with call-in show about nutrition? not excluding praying,
so an infomercial as sked `Great Health Live`. Checked because of CCI
from algo, hoped-for Es or at least tropo DX.
100.1, Aug 13 at 1700 UT, ``The Spirit of the West``, i.e. KWFX
Woodward, listed as ``Spirit Country``, 100 kW, but mostly blocked

** TURKEY. 9830, August 13 at 2202, no signal from VOT English into
UTwente, nor later in hour checked direct. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, Aug 13 at 0500-0507, UR1 via WRMI, via
Maryland SDR, `Ukraine: Security Issue` for Aug 12 = Day 170 of

various other attax; civilian casualties in Mykolaiv; over 43K Russian
casualties so far; Russia recruiting mercenaries from Syria, Mali,
Laos, Uzbekistan [what a motley group]; Zap. nuclear plant still being
shelled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 347 MCW kHz, Aug 13 at 0625 UT, AFK, 25-watt ND beacon at
Nebraska City NE, encountered JBA between 341 Enid and 350 OKC; easy

OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330.051, Aug 13 at 0617, WLCR/WBCQ in English, back to the
plus side, from the minus side 24 hours ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 96.7, Aug 13 at 1550 UT, after nothing much, suddenly a
strong signal with football talk, about TX Rangers, DFW, and soon JBA
again, only KTCK-FM Flower Mound TX, which really gets out when it
catches a wave, as also heard Aug 11 at 1554, 381 km = 246 miles.
Faded in and out like sporadic E which I was hoping for, with a
137-MHz MUF patch east of here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
98.3, Aug 13 at 1654 UT, Open carrier, dead air, must be from 97 kW
semi-local KQZQ, Kiowa KS, just a few km and fewer miles from OK.
However, pretends to be a Pratt station, site more than halfway from
Kiowa, north of Medicine Lodge. Still dead for a few minutes, not
rechecked until 1935 when it`s alive with country. BTW, Kiowa was the
last known location of Scott Becker, onetime partner of Allan Weiner
until becoming a nonentity to WBCQ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
