** KURDISTAN [non]. 11540, Sept 20 at 1500, sounds like Turkish music,
i.e. jammer against and/or Dengê Gel, which recently quit the 17 MHz
band for 11510, but once jammer caught up, into the cat-and-mouse
jumparound. No other significant signals now below 11600 such as
11510. Later 11540 confirmed as I see this Sept 20 on the WOR iog:
``Dengê Gel has started using alternate frequencies to avoid the
Turkish jammer. Noted today at 0640 on 11540, with Erdogan speech on
11520. When Pridnestrovye was used in the past, signal strength here
in the U.K. was much stronger. Probably still via Tashkent. Alan
Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Sept 20 cuts on late at *1500.5, VOMK in
unreadable English, S6/S9+10; by 1503 changed to the YL in presumed
Dhivehi. Propagation degraded so not as strong as usual, but more than
one could expect from Uzbekistan site rather than Australia. Which is
continuing to be a matter of controversy; another possibility is that
more than one site may be in use on different days (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Sept 20 after 2200, token English from REE main
feature on quick midcheck, VG into Maryland SDR, interview about

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sept 20 after 2200, VOT English back to VG
signal into UTwente; `Weekly Commentary` - or was it `Weekly Analysis`
started shortly after 2230 until almost 2250 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Sept 20 at 0141, no signal from WBCQ-6 W.L.C.R., tho
Classix on 7490- & 6160- are nominal. 9330 still off at 0620 while
6160- is still on with TOMBS. Wonder what`s the problem now? Next chex
at 1656 and later, 9330 back on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5085 & 5130+, Sept 20 at 0036, still no signals from WTWW
planning to resume, nor WBCQ Trumpmitter. 5010 WRMI is on but not yet
5050 until 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15770, Wed Sept 20 at 1930, WRMI relaying VOA News, and 1935
`Flashpoint Ukraine`; final item is interview with CEO of DragonFly
about how drones in private hands will soon be as fun and ubiquitous
as the internet. 1959 VOA ID sung by sounds like Louis Armstrong, neat
-- but NO WRMI ID and 2000 immediately into gospel huxter. The casual
uninformed listener would conclude that VOA is now a religious outlet,
violating Separation Of Church And State (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 860, Sept 20 at 1854 UT, KKOW Pittsburg KS, is off! During
routine bandscan from ~25 km north of Enid. Did not know it had any
problems; neighbor 690 KGGF Coffeyville KS is VG as usual, both 10 kW.
On 860 seems a JBA fast SAH but would not expect any daysigs from
others nearest in TX, AR, IA. On 860 and above there is lite line
noise audible even tho no powerlines in sight where parked along US
81/60/64 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

north on expedition, no problem; WTFDA FM DB: ``KVGB-FM 104.3 GREAT
BEND KS CLASSIC ROCK THE POINT 96.0 kW 247.0 m HAAT 38-25-54 98-46-18
