** ALGERIA. 17600, May 14 at 2037, Qur`an at S3/S6, so presumed the HQ
service during off-hours of Ifrikya FM. Béchar site scheduled 18-21
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ARGENTINA. 28459 USB, May 14 at 2044, LW9EMY, in a contact, says he
is Alejandro, in Quilmes. QRZ.com: LW9EMY Argentina flag Argentina,
Alejandro Daniel Gio, Quilmes, lw9emy@gmail.com, Argentina.
28480 USB, May 14 at 2045, LU7YZ says he is in Patagonia: LU7YZ
Argentina flag Argentina, Alejandro "Alex" NAZRA, 8309 - Centenario,
Neuquen, Argentina (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 28453 USB, May 14 at 2043, PY3PA calling CQ. QRZ.com:
PY3PA Brazil flag Brazil, PAULO SANTOS, DAVID RIBEIRO, 555, AP.201,
TOMAZETI, CEP 97065-000, SANTA MARIA - RS -, RS, Brazil (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 17480, May 14 at 2036, JBA talk, only sig here
below 17490, therefore to be assumed it`s Dengê Welat and/or Recep`s
Turkeyjam (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 28492 USB, May 14 at 2046, ZL1WN, mentioning his 10-10
interest. Heard already a few weeks ago; now at same time as Deep
South Americans: ZL1WN New Zealand flag New Zealand, ROSS BIGGAR, 210
Oroua Rd, R D 5, Palmerston North 4475, New Zealand. After four
longhaul countries on 10m in 10 minutes, at 2047 I tune across 12m and
encounter zero activity (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. I don`t watch KWTV News 9 much, but during 60 Minutes,
May 14, 2023, I notice a promo for some anchordude whose face and name
I don`t recognize, so I wonder what happened to Kelly Ogle? Where
better to investigate than this blog:

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** PARAGUAY. 28450 USB, May 14 at 2040, ZP8VAO calling CQDX, careful
fonetix for the suffix, not for prefix: first thought he was saying
``VP2`` instead of ``Zulu Pete``. Suffix = his initials out of order
per QRZ.com: ZP8VAO Paraguay flag Paraguay, AMADO OSVALDO VILLASANTI
GAUTO, Manzana 28 Lote 15 1000 Viviendas, AYOLAS-MISIONES, Paraguay,
400 miles from Asunción. At 2042 called for 10-minute QRX. Love these
long-haul 10m F2 openings with nothing close. Might think band dead,
tuning up from 28150 with no beacons (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, May 14 at 2238, checking VOT for any elexion news,
but just music, S9+50 into UTwente. At least, unlike the 1830 on 5960,
this has been in English instead of Turkish, per routine closing at
2252 ``always with you``, 2253 heavyaccent YL with partial sked,
goodbye, and IS less than once to 2254*. I could not hear anything
direct on the intervening English from 2030 on 9875 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2160 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 14 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+5/15 into
nearby Noale SDR, only lite SAH and understation CCI. But by 2013 much
more musiQRM, presumably Smooth Radio, Brighton, England, UQKOGBANI.
Also confirmed UT Monday May 15 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/S9 into
Louisiana SDR but always with external 14-second noise blast override
starting at exactly same time. I also have UTwente running so check it
there even tho aimed SW from FL: detectable but unreadable in HSNL.
NOT confirmed UT Mon May 15 at 0300 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 -68 Hz =
6159.932 into NH SDR. Instead after JL ended on time, played a graphic
tutorial on love leading to sex, and later a lo-fi phone? conversation
past 0333. I have no idea why WOR was pre-empted. Unless narrowed,
some ACI splash from Turkey 6165 thataway in English about elexion.
Next:
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
