** CHINA. 9545, July 28 at 2321, Chinese maybe echoing, S7/S9 with
heavy flutter. That would be CNR1 jamming against RFA Tibetan via
Tajikistan. Several similar sigs on 31m band only, the sweet spot now
for such propagation. BTW Aoki still has Solomon Islands the only
other on 9545, at 22-05, but believed inactive, not reported in
longtime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11760, July 28 at 0715, overtime RHC Spanish S9+10 but JBM.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. It`s the only log I make this
late-night due to horrible S9+10 noise level all over the bands:
suspect from neighbor and/or thru power lines. I may have to rely even
more on remote receivers, but many of them also have `line noise`
problems. Abated by 15 UT enough to tell that propagation is now
degraded (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15230, July 28 at 2316, RHC S9/+10 of dead air. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Fri July 28 at 2200, token English from SNR, intro as
interview with some French composer/singer living in Spain, still no
news. Good into Maryland SDR, confirmed also active on 17715, 15520,
11670 and over to TURKEY instead (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.006, July 28 at *2159, VOT tries to start, cuts right
off, comes back at *2201 to stay on 11785.009. Heavy modulation almost
tolerable distortion in talk, horrible in music. Top news about Niger
coup. 2210 `Review of Turkish Press`. 2212.5 music. 2220 multi-lingual
ID filler reel. 2222 `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`, repeat
about persimmons. 2229 music. 2234 ``Always By Your Side`` promo. 2238
`Did You Know That`, by badax, repeat about WWI peace treaty during
Ottoman Empire. 2242 two more distorted musix. 2249 ``With You Every
Hour`` promo, music. 2253 always defective s/off announcement,
fragment of IS chopped off at 2254.6*, no finesse. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Fri July 28 at 2323, WRMI with email in English for, I
think, backwoodsradioshow@gmail.com certainly not RAE relay in
Portuguese as claimed thrice in schedule grids. No such name anywhere
on the skeds, nor on the Programming page. We do wish Jeff would
assign someone to keeping his displayed skeds up to date. Assumed
music, but maybe this drama podcast I searched out:
https://www.backwoodspod.com/ with horrible disgusting illustrations,
nothing about WRMI, and a different email (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. (7490), UT Sat July 29 at 0000 on WBCQ webcast, minute of
dead air after lo-fi feed from FKB gospel huxter finishes; 0001 JIP
`AAAWWW` theme, and soon obvious it`s a repeat of last week where he
goes political despite audience hating it. Is it quadricast again? At
least I recheck sigs into Maryland SDR: 7490 -72 Hz = 7489.928; 6160
-68 Hz = 6159.932; 5130 & 3265, no signals, just storm crashes (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
