** ALGERIA. 17600, Sept 11 at 2208, S2/S3 of secular-sounding Arabic
talk, no doubt TDA, and the OSOB = only signal on band, since on
Sunday 17855 Spain is already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, Sept 11 at 2214, S6/S9 of dead air when RHC is
supposed to be Frenching; 11850 Spanish is JBM with JBA plus/minus 10
kHz parasitic spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Unknown if
English succeeded at 2300; a while ago someone reported 11880 in
Spanish instead of French here after 2200. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Sept 12 at 0607, RHC English S9+10/20 with humwhine;
6100, S9+20/30 JBM English; all others off including 5040. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 12 at 0608 check, VON is OFF.
7255-, Sept 12 at 1734, VON is ON, signature minus 66/69 Hz offset =
7254.934 to .931, English talk about Nigeria, hard to follow despite
S9/+10 into Canary SDR, squeal, lots of storm noise from N Morocco
into SE Spain and N Algeria; and 2ACI from 7265, much louder CRI
Russian pontificating via Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation.
AMNarrow or LSB helps a bit but still squealy. Recheck at 1757, VON is
OFF, supposed to run another hour in English and after that Fulfulde
vs heavy ChiCom CCI not 2ACI. VON may be cutting off and on
erratically should I have cared to keep on it. But by 1817 recheck,
the H2Ofall is blank, as Peter, EA8BFK = DJ9PC must have recaptured it
for his own hamming as per standard warning. 1907 it`s back, nothing
but CRI Turkish, huge S9+10/25 and almost on-frequency. Hard to
believe this be all the way from Kunming instead of E Turkistan.
SDR location is the CI of Fuerteventura. Antenna is ``80m Loop`` --
measuring 80 metres, or peaking on the 80m band? It worx well anyway
on 40m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6920 USB, Sept 11 at 2220, rock music S5/S6. Several
reports also as unID, between 2143 and 2225 at least:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101808.0.html
Some request QSL anyway; if forthcoming, would it then be IDed, or
``QSLing your unID...``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Sept 12 at 0045, hard rock, some DJ?
talkovers unreadable; 0125 quick ID as Radio --something, back to
music. Many logs here as Sycko Radio, not exactly at 0125 tho:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101816.0.html
BTW at 0051 a noise burst of about 10 seconds, probably RF
auto-ignition of my nearest streetlight circa sunset which was at
0045; but not confirmed at visible wavelengths -- i.e. I did not
hasten to look out a window (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Sept 11 at 2202, S8.5/S9 of JBM music but
this time matchable to 95.7 KXLS ``Lahoma`` Enid, fourth known station
local CB pirate has rebroadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: tnx to Vern who
explains without my asking what happened UT Sunday circa 0315 UT: ``Hi
Glenn, This is to let you know that WOR 2155 did not air in the 22:15
CDT slot on Sept. 10. An area wide power outage from 21:25 to 23:55,
caused by a severe lightning thunderstorm in the area. It caused
WA0RCR to be off air during that time. Operation did not resume until
23:56 CDT. Vern Jackson`` -- I wish other affiliates would do that.
Confirmed Sunday September 11 at 2005, the 2000 on AM Italia, 1323 kHz
only, S9+5/18 well atop musical understation. Yesterday 918 was also
on and much better into same nearby Noale SDR.
Also confirmed UT Monday September 12 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+5
into Maryland SDR with usual noise burst for a few seconds at start.
Also confirmed ENDING at 0259 UT Monday Sept 12 on WBCQ Area 51,
6160-, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, and right into Hobart Radio
International, both half an hour early! Larry Will says sorry, it was
a one-time automation mixup. BTW, HRI program was dated 23 July - 13
August, i.e. was supposed to repeat week after week over a monthlong
period, now long past. Next WORs:
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. 9455, Sept 12 at 0612, this WRMI is S9+20, distorted and
splattering again, as far down as 9410 marring BBC. Something`s odd at
Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9330v, Sept 12 at 1523 check, WLCR/WBCQ is still AWOL at
least during this hour. What does WLCR own sked say?
https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio-broadcast-schedule.html
9330, nonstop 24h including nothing but English 1100-2400, all at 253
degrees, yet specifying different targets: Central/West USA at 11-14;
Canada/Upper Mid-West USA at 14-17; East/Central USA at 17-24.
Why 253 degrees? I had not realized until tracking it on my NGS Globe
with geometer, that it`s aimed right at Enid! Thus WLCR has been
dedicated from the outset to convincing ME that the World is flat!!
And incidentally that there is some wacky deity, ``Preparing for
Yahuwah`s Earthly Kingdom, Established at Yahushua`s Imminent
Return!`` -- Y & Y, what`s the diff? Guess I have not been paying
attention, but ``don`t spell me Yahweh!``. Cf. WMLK and Station YHWH.
Anyhow, no one is in a better position than I to divine whether 9330
be on the air or not during all those hours.
253 degrees also crosses near Detroit, out of USA east of El Paso, and
out of Norteamérica across BCS. Eventually it hits Tahiti, and New
Zealand. This is slightly beyond the nominal azimuth of all the
``classic`` WBCQ antennas, 245 degrees as in FCC, while 9330 has a
wide variety of other angles registered, totally different from own
current sked. Still nothing but 9330, no other imaginary frequencies
contemplated as in original plan, since they still haven`t figured out
how to QSY.
For a while they were compensating for this by hiring some time
elsewhere, still IDing as if WBCQ, but has anyone heard those lately:
current HFCC shows Spaceline, Sofia, Bulgaria for Allan H Weiner:
Perhaps only one at a time, or none: 07-12 13840 & 17520, 07-15 15780,
all multilingual, daily, 250 kW at 156 degrees to CIRAFs 38,39,48,47E
= NE, E and C Africa from Libya to Sudan to Kenya, and Turkey thru
Arabian Peninsula, of course including Egypt HQ of the cosmetix
magnate instigator, an alien who could not own a US SW station
directly. What`s his name? Lotsa luck finding it at
https://www.worldslastchance.com/founders-headquarters.html
with weasely generalities. New Jerusalem, really? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. RF 27, KFOR-TV OKC ``4`` with premiere of `NBC News Daily`,
Sept 12 at 1800 UT. This hour replaces the soapera `DOOL` which has
been banished to Peacock after countless decades on real air. Opening
gives time of 2 pm in the east, 11 am in the west, --- and 1 pm in St
Louis!!! Incredible, a national coastal-based network acknowledging
that there be anything such as a different timezone in the great
Central US. Will they ever mention Denver, or Phœnix? Evidently it`s
running live everywhere, rather than 3-hour delay to PDT, so must
require some other program-juggling.
This fortuitously coincides with EIIR* super-coverage destined to last
at least another week, but by 1808 already moved on to T**** and many
other topix. Some of same anchors, but no, not on MSNBC too. Let`s
hope it continue to cover the news broadly with twice as much time M-F
as `Nightly` which is airing before sundown in most of the country. At
least here, confronts `The Talk` on CBS, and an hour after `GMA3` on
ABC, hardly hard news there.
NBC provides 1822 & 1852 cutaways used for local weather, hostessed by
the very pregnant meteorologiste Emily Sutton;
https://kfor.com/news/local/big-announcement-kfors-emily-sutton-is-expecting/
She`s also on the pre-sunrise shift, #2 only to Mike Morgan in
primetime 4 pm+. Enid`s low this morning was 49, whew! (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7932+, Sept 12 at 0610, RV is S7/S8 vs CODAR, 2 x 3966+,
back on Monday after silent Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
