** CHINA. 21490, Aug 13 at 2203, JBA carrier is the OSOB and thus also
the SSOB, i.e. CNR1 jammer, which might run 34 minutes short of 24 hpd
per Aoki with Sound of Hope hours 1526-1500.
Also JBA carrier on 18970 and another on 18965. Aoki shows only 18970
starting at 2200 the same radio war. None audible 24h later (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, Aug 14 at 0651, S9+20/25 of dead air in Spanish from R.
Rebelde; ho, hum, something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 15245.0, Aug 14 at 1512, JBA algo. Since it`s not
off-frequency, must not be VOK as sked in English around 15245.2;
rather CRI English via Kashgar also sked, Commies vs Commies! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** FRANCE. 7340, Aug 14 at 1522, JBA carrier into UTwente. No signal
direct nor into Canary SDR nor on 13735. Should be Mini Transat marine
weather as heard past two days. Wolfgang Büschel, Germany was hearing
7340 only at 1505, S9+5 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GUATEMALA. TGAV Radio Verdad has been off the air since 5 December
2020, but would you believe it`s still in Aoki? I have been in contact
with Dr Madrid, whose digital clox keep failing, but he says they do
not depend on WWVB.
``We miss your 4-MHz signal. I guess you have no plans to resume it? I
hope you have realized by now that nothing comes of the ``worldwide``
SW signal satellite relay deal. Best wishes, Glenn Hauser`` - his
reply August 14:
``Now, referring to our short wave station Radio Truth International
on 4055 khz, we have discarded our satellite project, and have
returned to the conventional short wave radio. We are expecting to
receive in Guatemala a new and modern 1200 watt transmitter
constructed at Frankfurt, Germany. This is a computerized transmitter,
quite modern. The transmitter was sent to the United States already,
in order to set our 4055 Khz frequency, and will be sent to Guatemala
these days. We plan to return to the air quite soon. We hope so. Thank
you very much. Your radio friend, Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid, Radio
Truth International`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORWAY [and non]. 18127 USB, Aug 14 at 2209, only phone contact on
band now, US station KG4GTN, Jack in Florida, asks, ``how are things
in Niue?``, or so it sounded which got my attention. His JBA QSOer was
LA4###. Never could catch his complete call, but DXheat.com has the
answer: on 18127 USB at 2210 was LA4UOA, with another QSO. Then
uplooked in QRZ.com:
``LA4UOA Norway flag Norway, Torgeir "TOR" Strisland, Strislandsveien
110, 4525 KONSMO. 4525 Norway`` with lots of photos of his homemade
tower, and:
``KG4GTN USA flag USA, JACK V OLSON, 16410 Nolen Rd, DADE CITY, FL
33523, USA`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1170, Aug 13 at 2216 UT, just noting that
despite conversion to KOTV AM, Tulsa still running IBOC noise peaking
1183 and 1157, the lower QRMing poor KSL SLC also at night, which to
boot has a poor signal unlike the good old days, 50 kW CC ND around
only 800 miles like WJR 760 Detroit. However, KSL cannot complain
since per new NRC AM Log, both it and KOTV are still IBOC. It probably
impedes KOTV out west with noise peak about 1173. But circumUtah, who
cares about local Tulsa news? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PANAMA. 28159.5 CW, Aug 14 at 2203, VVV DE HP1RIS/B and longer
message, the OBOB and indeed the OSOB; see previous logs of August 6
and July 18 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 11935.404-, Aug 14 at 1629, Rep. of Yemen
R., Arabic only S7/S8 into UTwente with heavy ACI from much stronger
11940 CRI English this hour only via Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Aug 13 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
S9+20/30 direct, and also audible or detectable on 17715, 15520,
15390. Preview topic to be the 70th anniversary of some ``gag law``
reforms which are now being reconsidered, interview with someone from
Amnesty International (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.004+, Aug 13 at 2158, VOT English not off the air
with IS, 2200 s/on ignoring SW, S9+10 direct vs S9 local noise level.
Into UTwente at 2232 when measured, S9+35/45 with Efsun the
accentuated, never could figure out the subject, music. 2244
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2250 `Turkey`s Geomarked
Products`` by accentuated OM, finally understood the subject as
weaving. Alan Holder says presenter of this is Evran Genç. More and
more they seem to introduce selves, but understanding names is still
difficult. 2253 s/off again ignoring SW, something`s always awry at
Ankara; and IS to 2256* just in time to avoid German (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 13 at 2158, and later 2203, 2212 chex direct, NO
signal from VOT English. Nor circa 2245 into UTwente, nor on previous
goofs 9875, 11795. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Propagation is back to normal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15120, Aug 13 at 2206, S9+20/30 of dead air, obviously VOA
Grimesland tardy in turnoff following 2130-2200 Bambara (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Aug 14 at 0640, gospel huxter in English, S9+20/30,
WRNO on extended sked. Not heard this late for many weeks in nightly
bandscans. A one-off, or to continue, only English or otherlangs? I
recently heard them earlier in Hindi? unlogged (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15150, Aug 14 at 1511, algo JBM at S3/S5. HFCC shows
nothing here between 1220 and 1700, just Romania, Iran, France
elsewhen. It`s WMLK`s frequency but surely not now, rather 0400-0900
except Sabbathdays. Even less in Aoki, and in EiBi nothing but WMLK
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15333-15355 approx., Aug 13 at 2207, OTH radar INTRUDER
clickery at S9/+10 in typical 22-kHz bandwidth, Russian or ChiCom? Why
don`t I see others logging these; don`t matter? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
