** BRAZIL. 5940.184, Oct 16 at 0214, JBA carrier presumed R Voz
Missionária; 5935 WWCR not too strong now. Not to be confused, I hope
with this: ``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)

** CUBA. 6000, Oct 16 at 0215, RHC dead air at S9/+10 or trace of JBM
presumably English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 9880, Oct 15 at 2212, Esperanto, so it`s CRI as
sked via Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs
and other Moslems. Note, it`s only Commies which speak Esperanto on
SW! with Cuba. What would Zamenhof say? He died on 14 April 1917y,
just missing the Bolshevik Revolutsiya. AFAIK not one gospel huxter
uses Esperanto: audience would be too smart (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Oct 15 at 0211, jazz at S6/S9, 0235 more
like soul vocal.

These reports say it was Two Dog Radio until 0219*

followed by: Sycko Radio:

and followed by a third one on same 6930 at 0253 I did not hear:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4930.6, Oct 16 at 0003, JBA carrier direct, surely the new
station reported since Oct 6, on this frequency offset, R. Pitumarca,
Sicuani, via R. Surandina. But nothing there at 0018 when checked via
Bonaire SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 15 at 2211, NO signal from VOT into UTwente;
so per Craig Tyson`s advice, checking:

9875, the 2030-2130 English frequency which sometimes stays on thru
2300 --- There is something S9 locking on at 9875.003, but modulation
sounds like whispering, unreadable and can`t even guess the language.
Maybe that`s TRT. Or VOK in Mandarin, also sked this hour. No, this is
not splash from an adjacent, nothing on 9870 and 9880 has EAST
TURKISTAN, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 15 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+17 with
slight QRM from understation, Qur`an? so Iran sked until 2020. Also
confirmed on WRN to Europe webcast and WRMI webcast.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 16 at 0045 the 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S7/S9 into Bonaire SDR. This was not on last week so I removed it from
sked. Good thing I thought to recheck. So, what happens next week?

Also confirmed UT Monday October 16 at 0306 about 4 minutes into so
started circa 0302 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -68 Hz as displayed later
at 0354 by Maine SDR. Next:

0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [NEW]
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [NEW; also web-, phonecast; jammed?]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB
1030 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB [previous #2211]
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

No new contributions to acknowledge this week, in US funds but not
necessarily, via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search: whoopee, the
`season` is back, able to detect a few on two receivers, three
different antennas; despite line and other noise levels, Oct 16 at
0231 on 855, 1044 and two beating on 1053. At 0247, 855 and 828. At
0305, 855 and 1053. Not making any airtight claims, but: 855 & 828
both have 100 kW Ethiopians. 855 more likely RNE Spain synchros. 1044
has 10 & 20 kW from Spain but 200 kW from Ethiopia. 1053 Talksport UK
synchros up to 500 kW, but also 50 kW Ethiopia -- the country common
to all 4 frequencies. WRTH 2023 has no sked info, but this would be
around 6 am local, likely to be on air and skipping out westward circa
sunrise. MWlist shows 828 // 855 // 1044 all R. Ethiopia, 24h. 1053
is R. Oromiya not until *0400, but Talksport is 24h.

Method: I scan the entire MW band with the new R75 set at 9 kHz steps,
USB tuning 1 kHz below each: thus, 1 kHz tones/hets on TA frequencies
stand out except of course those ending in -0 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1430 kHz, Oct 16 at 0233 UT, strong open carrier/dead
air dominating at S9+10, occasional dips to S9. No stations in OK or
nearby have favorable night patterns thisaway, but several ND day
patterns + failure to modulate make this intriguing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 0537 UT October 16
