** CANADA. 258 MCW kHz, Oct 18 at 0634 UT, dash and ZSJ, 1000-watt ND
beacon at Sandy Lake, Ont. Occasionally heard; the regulars, also
hefty 1 kW, I seldom bother to relog: 248, WG WinnipeG; and 332, QT
Thunder Bay, mixing with IC wIChita KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 18 at 2205, R. Cairo S9 but just barely
distorted modulated with hum, into Spain SDR. Something`s always
egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Oct 18 at 0627, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati. Gary Pence advised me earlier it was on tonight with a
screenshot from the Oahu SDR of a tiny trace on 846 already at 0412
UT. Now, I also have neighboring 9/kHz JBA carriers on 837 and two
beating on 855, likely Canarias/Spain; As for Oct 17, 16: ``Hi Glenn -
Yes, 846 was heard Oct 17 (Monday), from 0603+ UT. Clearly was silent
yesterday (Sunday). Ron (California)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 18 at 0635, no signal direct from VON. Also no
signal at 1740 into Spain SDR while Canary SDR is too busy, nor the
latter when it connects after 1800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830.003, Oct 18 at 2207, VOT is on in English, S9+50 into
UTwente, undermodulated but otherwise sufficient. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2160 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Tuesday October 18 at 0030 on WRMI 9395: instead, after an ID,
switched to SMTV! Which per skedgrid during this hour is supposed to
be on 5800, but something else not // there; and normally always QSYs
at hourtop not bottom. Jeff White explains that the automation
sometimes goes haywire changing System inputs when it`s not supposed
to, so this was a mistake and hopefully will not rehappen. Anyhow, was
S9/+20, nor was WOR to be found on any other active WRMI frequency.

** U S A. WRMI update on FB circa 21 UT Oct 18: ``Another transmitter
and frequency is back on the air as of 1940 UTC today. We are
replacing 21525 with the new frequency of 17790 kHz. The programming
of the Radio Africa Network will be airing on this frequency daily
from 1500-2100 UT. We are using a different azimuth of 160 degrees for
this one, due to the damaged 87-degree antennas that were used before.
Tomorrow we will attempt to get another frequency on the air. We still
have 5850, 7570 and 7780 kHz to go. Thanks very much for the
tremendous listener support we have received.`` -- 17790 not checked
here yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1140 kHz, Oct 18 at 0620 UT, open carrier again, not as
obvious as last night, but suppressing `C2CAM` from presumed WRVA VA,
altho one other 1140 is on that, Palm Springs CA, never heard. This
time I do DF the OC on the DX-398 and indeed it is E/W, so KLTK, 5 kW
ND, Centerton AR daytimer is even more likely source. On the R75 with
E/W longwire, the OC is more prominent. Nulling it on DX-398, weak
Spanish, unsure if XEMR. BTW, KLTK is also Spanish if ever modulated.
Also noted the OC much earlier in evening, so KLTK presumably does not
turn off carrier at LSS. I want to check the official FCC SS/SR times
for KLTK, but AM Query errors out when trying to get to
https://transition.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/amq?list=0&facid=33073
Are others having this problem?
The first page before that shows KLTK as licensed to La Zeta 957 Inc.;
but NRC AM Log shows it`s // K260CS, 99.9, ``Radio Las Américas
1140``. That implies some relation to 1120, KETU Catoosa/Tulsa OK,
which FCC has licensed to Radio Las Americas Arkansas, LLC; but NRC AM
Log for KETU says it`s ``La Que-Tu, 1120, La Diferente`` -- I also
have had that daytimer sometimes modulating at night, QRMing KMOX.
Judging from commercials, Las Américas is at root a grandiose grocery
store (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
