ANTARCTICA. Wolfgang Bueschel just reported March 14: ``15474.971
kHz (!) UNIDentified mx program, likely Argentine Antarctic 5 kW tiny
LRA36 sce? rather strong S=7 at 2330 UT.``

Who says it`s 5 kW? March 15 at 0030 I also have it approx. 15475;
15474.97 into the one Argentine KiwiSDR working online. Only rock
music so far, rather weak, on both LSB and USB but louder on USB, and
a reduced carrier if sidetuned. Surprise Tuesday broadcast without any
advance publicity? Maybe it`s the `new` transmitter no longer circa
15476. As soon as I press Send, ``RAE Argentina To The World`` ID at
0033, more music, rather distorted. Glenn, at 0036. Other reports:

Doug White, KA5ETS: ``Just heard RAE Argentina al mundo ID at 0048.
S7 into central NC. Using Airspy HF+ Discovery with 57 ft end fed
antenna at 40 ft. Off, or no longer being heard here in NC by 0101``

gh: Not rechecked Arg SDR until 0113, off but: Something strange circa
15472/73, intermittent bits of electronic music or talk, very hard to
pin down exact frequency, which seems to fluxuate with modulation
{like a spur}, circa 0116. Then nothing to 0123. Glenn

Horacio Nigro, CX3BZ, Montevideo at 0141: ``They've been doing tests
on USB, LSB, including AM. I read of Korol asking for reports in our
Whatsapp group. But I am not close to active radio monitoring, lately.
Expect more tests coming besides regular sked already announced.``

gh: It`s on again with music from 1600 tune-in Wed Mar 15, 1608 RAE
multi-lang ID, 15475 USB not LSB, only S3 into BsAs SDR. Is becoming
so common now? 1618 phone tones, ``comunicad`` promo. Later chex:
still at 1647; 1804 S5, 1820. Glenn. Other reports on WOR iog:

Zach Liangas, Greece: ``More careful analysis shows AM mode with LSB
part at quite lower level than USB (about 10 db) possibly like
vestigial sideband. Song Eva at 1902 -92db``

Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens, Washington: ``At 2035 UTC, I found
LRA36 on 15475 USB (at least it was heard best in USB) with a rock
ballad, then an ID, into a rock instrumental with a male voice
speaking during the song, another ID, then into a slow rock song with
a singer who sounded at times like Tom Waits. The signal heard via the
Montevideo, Uruguay, SDR suddenly went off the air around 2047. Here
near Seattle, I could faintly hear the music directly, especially
during the guitar peaks, but it was overall much worse than last
Saturday's reception of LRA-36.``

Levi P. Iversen: ``Made it here to Norway too. Very weak but heard an
ID at just past 2015 UTC on around 15474.97 kHz: "Transmite LRA 36
Radio Nacional Arcángel San Gabriel" Clear ID. Best in USB. Carrier
off at 2047.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
