** CUBA. 7335, Jan 12 at 0417, pulse jamming against nothing: hey,
stupid DCJC, can`t you tell R. Martí is on 7355, and 7435? Very strong
even here and no jamming detectable on those (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9790, Jan 12 at 0426, S9+40 wasted since modulation is
extremely suptorted in CRI relay. Geez, it`s hard enough to understand
Cantonese when it`s clear! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** IRELAND. 3413 USB, Jan 12 at 0436, YL with VOLMET, S9/+10. Shannon
is here 24h per EiBi, altho San Francisco could be too with non-VOLMET
comms (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KUWAIT. 7590, Jan 12 at 0418, JBA carrier: got to be R. Farda at
0230-0830; we don`t have to consider jamming against it, do we?
Instead Iran will just throw station relatives in prison (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 15215, Jan 12 at 0431, talk at S9+10 but = noise level
so JBA, and is the OSOB! Only signal on band. Trans/eq advantage
rules: it`s RFI in Swahili at 0430-0500. Now the 13 and 17 MHz bands
are also totally dead (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO [and non]. 800, Jan 12 at 0402 UT, heavy distorted QRM from
XEERG, NL on my N/S shortwire; hardly any vs KQCV OKC on my E/W loop
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 USB, Jan 12 at 0415, variety of siren sounds
intermittently; then at 0416 same on 6955 USB -- at least I think they
are USB. Nothing reported in HFU: may have been only brief bits (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1640 kHz, Jan 12 at 0405 UT, KZLS STILL dead air atop
something. probably WSJP Relevant Radio, WI again. 1708 UT still,
passing the 82-hour mark (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** PHILIPPINES. 9275, Jan 12 at 1549, song with good signal: not WMLK
since it`s huxtering on 15150 now. EiBi & Aoki show R. Liangyou at
1000-1600 via FEBC Bocaue site. WRTH treats this as merely another
Chinese broadcast from FEBC, nothing about Liangyou; EiBi implies it
originates in Hong Kong. But here it is:
https://www.febchk.org/en/liangyou-en/
Searching that for 9275 gets NO hits! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA. 9510, Jan 12 at 0423, RRI VG S9+30/40 in English; 0424
`RRI Encyclopedia` about the Revolution of 1848 and slavery of the
Roma people [i.e., ``Gypsies``, not Romanians]. Not found on listed //
7410 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SUDAN [non]. 11650, Jan 11 at 0428, S9+20/10 of dead air is the
SSOB; 0429 R. Dabanga ID in passing, also shouted; MADAGASCAR relay of
course so also thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Jan 12 at 0746, UI, qUIncy IL, ND beacon mixing
with FBY, FairBurY NE. Normally hear FBY only. Per dxinfocentre, UI
has a power advantage, 30 watts vs only 25 for FBY (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 344 kHz, Jan 12 at 0757 UT, open carrier; compared to
othersigs, this one should be strong enough to hear an MCW ID if any
were transmitted. Most likely JL, JopLin MO, 25 watts altho there is
also JA, JAxonvil FL, 400 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 6501 USB, Jan 12 at 0412, S9+30 of roboman voice obsessed
with ``seas`` and ``winds`` concerning the Atlantic, Bahamas. It`s
NMN, Chesapeake VA during this 0330-0430 segment, USCG timeshare with
NOJ Kodiak, NRV Guam, NMO Honolulu, per EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2277 monitoring: confirmed UT

** U S A. 9395 // 9455, UT Sun Jan 12 at 0421, WRMI on both with
dramatic narration, weird music, S9+30/40 and S9+40 respectively. 9455
had made fitful attempts to resume long after hurricane damage; we`ll
see if it remain this time. Per XMTR grid, 9395 WRMI-6 is System G
with TOMBS, 9455 WRMI-11 off after System E TOMBS until 0400. System G
itself shows TOMBS on both at 0400-0500 UT, except UT Sunday: 0400
`Rural Routes`, 0430 `Wavescan`. What`s `Rural Routes`?? Nothing about
it on the Programming page. 9455 is off again at 1548, JBA carrier
from CRI Kunming this hour only. WRMI-11 is sked 23-04 UT only, BTW
the skedgrid is now dated at the top ``effective January 11, 2025` --
so it ought to be totally accurate, altho individual Systems still
show ``effective March 10, 2024``! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 880, Jan 12 at 0758 UT, open carrier/dead air atop some
Mexmx; 0800 finally alive with KRVN ID, Fox `news`. See also
UNIDENTIFIED (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 900, Jan 12 at 0442 UT, ads with 903 area code including
hair stylist. The only fit in NRC AM Log is KPYN Atlanta TX U1 1000/33
but was Christian and silent as of 11/2023. When did it become
unsilent? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 990, Jan 12 at 0806 UT, ``Mighty 9-90, K-Wam and 107.9``
after ads so not CBW; CBS News, mentions South Haven, but this is not
Kansas; per NRC AM Log, only 990 with this slogan and FM translator
match = W300DE, is KWAM Memphis TN, U4 10000/450. But not listed as
CBS affiliate, rather Fox. Southaven MS is a Memphis suburb right on
the border (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1200, Jan 12 at 0446 UT, 9-second loop over and over, ``This
is the Houston Texans Radio Network`` including ear-splitting tone for
5 seconds, still past 0451 when I can stand it no longer. OMG, *STILL
DOING THAT* at 0635 recheck. O, how the mighty have fallen! No one
minding the store at WOAI San Antonio, the nation`s premier Clear
Channel Station! Yes, that`s ``Texans``, not ``Texas``, a team name?
Yes, football. Eric Fetters-Walp in Washington and Walt Salmaniw in BC
could also perceive it thru QRM. STILL going at 0744, 0808 chex, and
Roger in Germany says still past 0915 UT. And:
``Still doing that now at 1300Z, after my local sunrise. Quite strong
signal into Birmingham, not unusual here. Oh it just stopped, Fox News
about plane crash at 1304. Dead air after end of Fox News at 1305. End
of DX test! Dead air ends at 1307 with promo for a show "on 1200
WOAI", ad for pet shelter, then dead air again. Eike Bierwirth,
Birmingham, AL`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 410 kHz, Jan 12 at 0757, JBA carrier. DXinfocentre.com
says this is a ``Maritime RDF Channel``. Only 3 USAs listed in IN, TX,
NC and several in Canada (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 880, UT Sun Jan 12 at 0440, Spanish talk dominates
especially on E/W loop with less CCI from KRVN to the north. Seems to
be religious, of which there are two in NRC AM Log: KKMC Gonzales CA,
U4 10000/10000; WRRZ Clinton NC, D1 1000; but bigsig more likely from
supposedly secular: WIJR Highland IL as previously heard, U4 1700/160;
WMDB Nashville TN U1 2500/2! watts; KJOZ Conroe TX U4 10000/1000. I
also wonder if KHAC Tse Bonito NM U1 10000/430 is ever Spanish besides
Navajo/English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1440 kHz, Jan 12 at 0811 UT, ID sounds like KBUS or
KBUN, but no fits; the closest fuzzies would be my two closests: KPUR
Amarillo TX and KTUV Little Rock AR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7890, Jan 12 at 0418, JBA carrier: I would like to think
it`s an harmonic leak from 3945 VANUATU like in the good ole days,
altho rather too early for either to be active and propagating. Even
Klingenfuß 2022 has no ute on this exact frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
