** CHINA [non?]. 17855, Sept 19 at 0600, surprised to hear some
Chinese JBA on frequency left tuned after Spain at 2200. Not accounted
for in Aoki, but EiBi shows RFA via Tinian, and CNR1/Firedrake jamming
this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Sept 19 at 1500 UT on caradio, again dead air with
stereo icon, presumed KOCD. Recheck at 1703 on DX-398 with telescopic
antenna only and at ground level, now enough signal for RDS icon and
to display: KOCD-FM_ static! So now it`s 100% certain that all this DA
has been from the Okeene station which supposedly went off the air
last January. At this time RDS worx, but not enough signal for $ tereo
icon (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sept 19 at 2200, VOT English is only S7/S9 with
noise, fading, even unto UTwente where normally can hit S9+50. About
the worst I`ve ever heard it there. So a good excuse not to attempt
any detailed logging today. I really need to break away from such a
habit: better ways to spend a few hours per week. WWV reported at
2100: ``Solar-terrestrial indices for 19 September follow.
Solar flux 166 and estimated planetary A-index 52.
The estimated planetary K-index at 2100 UTC on 19 September was 3.67.
Space weather for the past 24 hours has been strong.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G3 level occurred.
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 level occurred.``

** U S A. 1130 kHz, Sept 19 at 1635 UT, no signal on caradio from KLEY
Wellington KS; despite high storm and line noise level, should be
audible as usual daytimes. At 1655 I get a JBA carrier on the R75; on
the DX 398 I can`t get a DF fix. Could be image, or: how about running
``one watt`` night power in day rather than 250 watt day power at
night? So KLEY seems totally off the air, and not merely dead air as
often. Meanwhile sibling KKLE Winfield KS 1550 is quite audible with
bluegrass, altho always weaker than KLEY when it`s normal, and DF for
NNE/SSW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
