** CUBA. 9490, Oct 9 at 0618, residual pulse jamming against nothing,
long after R. República via RMI vis France is off; but this time
accompanied by strings of two alternating tones between brief pauses.
Their CW-like carriers zero in on 9490.0 and 9490.4 -- tones on jam
frequencies happen occasionally in different configurations; jamops
playing around, relieving boredom? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 9 circa 2130, NO signal from R. Cairo direct
nor via UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11525, Oct 9 at 0648, JBA carrier; 11510, Oct 9 at
1535, JBA signal; both presumed current jumparounds in the Kurdo/Turco
radio war (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 9 at 1526 UT, JB detectable SW, 25 watt
NDB at Stillwater, vs line noise level of S9. Had not been able to
hear it for many weeks, if really on air all the time (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7570, Oct 9 at 0635, S9+25/35 of dead air
from TOMBS via WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Oct 9 at 2200, VG S9/+20 into Maryland SDR, token
English from SNR by the usual Amy Egan & Marilýn Quintana, but quick
IDs come from unfamiliar voices they must have recruited for that
purpose of variety. Feature subject after news to be marking World
Mental Health Day --- what? Everyone should know it`s Columbus Day
[non], as Oct 12 would be inconvenient on a Thursday. Or the Day of
the Race as celebrated? in Latin America if not Spain. Interview
emphasizes caring for elderlies` M.H. 2226 wrapup, they invite us to
listen again but never admit English is tokenly only on M/W/F, so
anyone tuning in on T/T is in for frustration, disappointment (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.008+, Oct 9 at *2156.7 carrier on and soon IS and
English ID loop from VOT, S9+47 into UTwente, and soon drift up to
.009+. 2200 timesignal closely matches SPAIN via different remote.
Lotsa news, delaying `Review of the Turkish Press` until 2220, spoken
by badax so only some words understandable; and longer than usual
until 2224 music; 2228 `New Day/New Choices` about listening to Mozart
temporarily improves IQ scores. 2232 multi-lingual ID filler reel.
2257 recheck: off already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. My high line noise level has abated only slightly on LW/MW,
and/or conditions have improved only slightly, allowing me to detect
again some of my `regular` MCW ND beacons:
293 kHz, Oct 9 at 0726, FBY, Fairbury NE, 25 watts
326 kHz, Oct 9 at 0730, MA, Midland TX, 400 watts
329 kHz, Oct 9 at 0731, PMV, Plattsmouth NE, 25 watts

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 8 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/12
into nearby Noale SDR; with lite CCI singing, sorta Qur`anish, from
what? if Smooth Radio, England begone? mwlist: IRIB Radio Tabriz
1820-2020 azeri -- and with 50 kW per WRTH 2023. Seems off by 2022 and
then no signal into Kuwait SDR. So our other airing on 1323, Friday
from 2030 would be after Iran closes. There could still be a 30-watter
on 1323 from UK.
Not confirmed UT Monday October 9 at 0030 on WRMI 7780: another airing
bites the dust without notice:, something musical instead, vs noise
blast first 14 seconds. Still showing WOR on WRMI System D sked.
Confirmed UT Monday October 9 from 0300.6 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-,
S8/9+5 into NH SDR with frozen wideband mode so there is ACI from 6165
Turkey, timesignal already out of the way long before 0300:00. Next:
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW; to be confirmed]
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [was planned from late Sept]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB
1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2210]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. 5940.19, Oct 9 at 0639, PMS audio on a discrete spur in the
sideband of 5935 WWCR; no match on the minus side (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 5085, Oct 9 from 2350, standing by for the delayed and
delayed revival of WTWW: finally cuts on Oct 10 at *0009.5, JIP
preacher referring to this month and this day being for Pastor
Appreciation; I guess it`s a carefully chosen recording of Pastor Pete
Peters while he lived. Hits S9+40/48 but modulation including hymns is
a bit rough and crackly with distortion (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VATICAN. 17800 // 15595, Oct 9 at 1530, Arabic opening from VR SMG
site, both unreasonably strong if aimed away, 116 and 107 degrees
respectively (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4741.5, Oct 9 at 0643, as I happen to be here during a
routine bandscan, CODAR ID fires two times, starting with WR, probably
WRPW597 as reported extensively last Feb 10/11, from the MS/AL/FL Gulf
coast, so still every icosaminute at :03, :23, :43. I think the IDs
are not ordinary CW, but just as wideband as CODAR itself, which
paused during IDs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9960, Oct 9 at 0616, some JBA broadcast here in splash
from TOMBS 9955 WRMI. Nothing listed; only 9960 in Aoki & EiBi is
1730-1930 R. Pilipinas. 2 x 4980? Nothing listed there except in HFCC
but not at this hour, Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of imperialist
ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems. 3 x 3320?
P`yongyang is there 22 hpd including now; but some new fundamental
likelier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
