** CANADA. 346 MCW kHz, Oct 6 at 0633 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watts from
Sioux Lookout ON, remains the only Canadian NDB I`m hearing now. Many
former regulars have evidently been decommissioned. More about Sioux
Lookout, which is quite a transportation hub by rail, road and air;
name alludes to Ojibwe looking out for Sioux enemies:

** CUBA. 6000, Oct 6 at 0330, RHC S9+30 but suptorted probably
English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9790, Oct 6 at 0337, S9+20/30 of JBM Chinese, then English
with cgtn.com reference. CRI relay by RadioCuba where something`s
always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY. 9670, Oct 6 at 0307, drama from Texas Radio SW, oldtime
radio of Texas Rangers, instead of music, S9+10/20 direct, seems too
strong for alleged power of Channel 292 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6955+, Oct 6 at 0304, pirate-bandscan encounters
musical tones when tuned here on USB, like CW bursts at slightly
different frequencies. Wish I had a recording of the tune. Stops
shortly and nothing further around frequency in any mode. WTF Radio
Worldwide had many reports earlier on 6955 USB, including one at 0247,
``Morse code sounding beeps and boops``:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935 USB, Oct 6 at 0305, pirate music like a M&W
lovesong, S9+10. Several logs as B-Side Radio, but mostly in AM:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6970.08 AM, Oct 6 at 0331, S9/+10 of undermodulated
pirate music. More reports as unID:

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, Oct 6 at 0334, JBA carrier direct vs
utehash on the plus side; with LSB tuning can recognize the
intonations of Station YHWH. He may need to QSY (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, Oct 6 at 0338, JBA carrier from presumed
Hikari FM pirate on new frequency with signature offset (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1210 kHz, Oct 6 at 0314 UT, S9+30/20 stupid sportstalk
about football. Got to be KGYN Guymon, blasting thisaway at night
instead of protecting WPHT Philadelphia as licensed; and still/again
at 0624, S9+30/40 of sportstalk. Not unusual, but not always. KGYN is
U2 22/10 kW, so on ND day pattern at least, or even day power. Years
ago there were plans to move 1210 to OKC, but never happened (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** TURKEY. 7275, UT Sun Oct 6 at 0300, INTRUDER targeting N America
inside our 40m hamband, VOT English not off the air, VG S9+30/40
direct, s/on pretending it`s yesterday at 1230 on 17620. Does not name
which features will air later in hour. News leads with extremely
detailed casualty figures from Gaza, presumably from the Hamas
authorities, treated as if true: Israel killed 23 more Gazans the past
24 hours, injured 66. Totals over almost a full year of conflict:
41,825 killed, 96,910 more injured in this ``genocidal war`` which
also has destroyed 79% of the mosques.
Not monitored further on 7275, but at 0339 I find dead air slightly
above 11785 at S9/+10, suspiciously like the 2200 transmission which
was missing Oct 5 - could that be another Emirler transmitter somehow
on the air now? Per EiBi only 11785 scheduled now is CNR-2 from
Xianyang site at 00-13. I bet it is Emirler, where something is always
erroneous (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2263 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
October 5 at 2300 on WTWW 9475, VG direct. Had been off but cut on
with SFAW at *2240 in plenty of time for WOR. At 2340, I wrote to
George: ``Tnx for getting 9475 up and running in time for WOR. Hope
your repairs are going OK - Glenn`` - and he replied at 2345: ``Glenn,
Just finished removing from the high voltage line, a bad power module
that was causing overloads. Running fine NOW. George McClintock
10-5-2024``.

** U S A. 5010, UT Sun Oct 6 at 0329, this WRMI is off already,
instead of running late into the night with TOMBS. Still off circa
0635 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4840, UT Sunday October 6, 2024 at 0320 I run across WWCR
with some guy citing outdated DX loggings --- like Spain on 12030 and
11675, WBCQ via Woofferton in Arabic on 9800 - huhh? 9970 RFA via
Marianas. 9675 Saudi in Turkish. 11530 V of Welt [sic] in Kurdish, and
there will be no HFCC meeting in Bulgaria in August! No ID outro, 0326
switch to Bible stuff. It`s obviously Bob Padula! Yes, `Australian DX`
is still on the WWCR 4840 sked dated Oct 1, at 0315 UT Sundays.
Trouble is, it`s over 4 years old!!! HFCC: ``Due to the ongoing
COVID-19 situation, the conference in Bulgaria in August 2020 has been
cancelled. The B20 coordination is to be done online via our website,
e-mail correspondence, etc.``
What a WWCR disservice. I think BP stopped producing those years ago,
but I never listened since there was never any accurate, useful info;
his logs were ``routine`` at the time, nothing newsworthy about them.
And once cordial BP blew me off long before, when I dared to point out
to him some errors. I think he forbade me to quote him, which was fine
with me. He`s also on the outs with ARDXC. Evidently he has changed
passtimes to hiking instead of DXing. Has WWCR been running the same
4+year-old show every week, or more variety of useless outdated
misleading info? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 338 kHz, among several intriguing JBA MCW carriers on
NDB band, Oct 6 at 0630 UT, partial call as #M but nofits in RNA list
or dxinfocentre. 338 is normally RYN Tucson or TU Tulsa.
359 MCW, Oct 6 at 0634 UT, seems like MGF: probably GGF, Grant NE
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search: full 9/kHz
bandscan at 0308-0312 Oct 6 hits only two: 774, likely Spain, and
1089, likely UK; and no 889/891 now but yes at 0621 presumed Cuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9697-9716 approx., Oct 6 at 0336, OTH radar clickery;
fortunately no broadcasters in this area, maybe no coincidence (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
