** CUBA [and non]. 1040, Oct 24 at 0640 UT, ``whooper`` QRM vs WHO, a
typical Cuban defect. WRTH has only one, 10 kW R. Mayabeque, Güines
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2266)
** NEW ZEALAND. 17675, Oct 24 circa 0640, JBA carrier from RNZP, as has
been the case lately, hardly propagating like it was for a while. B24
schedule changes a lot but stays on 17675: AM daily: 1651 11725, 1759
15720, 2159 17675, 0659 13755, 1259-1650 7390. DRM daily except
Saturdays: 1651-1758 9780, 1759-2058 13840 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2266)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 960, Oct 24 at 0632 UT, local KGWA Enid in C2CAM
but considerable CCI and a pronounced SAH, adding up to S9+42. Only a
few km away, this is unusual: must be on reduced power, yet air not
deadened. Also echoing C2CAM from an understation, most likely WERC
Birmingham AL per NRC AM Log altho there are a few others at greater
distances, lesser powers. However, Log does not have KGWA as C2CAM
station; may have started later after August closing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 245 kHz MCW, Oct 24 at 0643, 400-watt ND beacon FS, Sioux
Falls SD, only somewhat unusual barely overcoming noise level (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2265 monitoring: confirmed UT
Thursday October 24 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, S9/+20 into Bonaire SDR.

** U S A. 17790, Oct 24 at 1904, WRMI R. Africa noted for first time
since Hurricane Milton, S6/S7 relinglish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD
OF RADIO 2266)
** U S A. 660, Oct 24 at 0636 UT, NO C&W loud and clear but mix of
weaker signals, so KTNN AZ must axually be on night pattern protecting
WFAN, unusual (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VATICAN [and non]. 25700, Oct 24 at 1418, S5/S7 in language, i.e.
Hausa from BBC via SMG at 1400-1430 M-F only. Logged for the record.
Not violating Separation of Church and State as both UKQOGBANI and
Vatican are theocracies. Vatican apparently has no problem doing
business with Church of England heretix. OSOB, nothing audible on 25800
where LP Denmark could be 24h; per Aoki, only other 11m activity is
25900 at 1200-1230 daily, BBC French via Madagascar. EiBi adds the LP
Russian on 25900 and USA broadcast auxiliary relays, all apparently
inactive, on 25910, 25950, 25990, 26110, 26190, 26450. I frequently
check 26110 for KMK282, of KOVR/KMAX Stockton/Sacramento, the last one
active, not heard since Nov 28, 2023.
HFCC B24 as of Oct 22 shows some other intriguing possibilities on 11m,
if they ever happen:
25700, 1400-1430 M-F BBC Hausa will be via Woofferton instead
25795, 25800, 25805, 24h alt channels for 10 kW WMR Denmark
25820, 1400-1500 daily but irr. DRM from Issoudun, France
25850, RON, Luxembourg in Portuguese, 1 kW, 24h
26000, Spaceline, Bulgaria, 24h 50 kW at 306 to W Europe
26010, IRDR Vatican placeholder, 100 kW to all CIRAFS, 24h
26040, new 1 kW FNA Berlin in German, 24h
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9945-9970 approx., Oct 24 at 0128, OTH radar clickery
QRMing 9955 WRMI amid, as heard via Bonaire SDR; 25 kHz bandwidth,
typical of Russia? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 21725.0, Oct 24 at 1903, JBA carrier direct, the OSOB.
Nothing listed anywhere around here; I also get local birdies obvious
on vacant bands, but they land on odd split frequencies, yet this one
is exact so suspect it`s real (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNSOLICITED TESTIMONIAL. Kudos to Fred Studenberg in Melbourne,
Florida, producer of the no longer available BST-1 SW car radio. It`s
remote-controlled only by a key fob link on 433.92 MHz, but I lost it
on an outing! Fred very kindly replaced it for me at no cost, which
also involved sending the radio back to him for reprogramming. Website
is still up where you may read all about it; maybe find one on used
market?
