** CHINA. 6180, Jan 26 at 1553, JBA algo is the OSOB this late after
Enid sunrise 1337 UT today. EiBi shows possibilities: R. Taiwan Int`l
in Mandarin from site s=D/Tanshui, so of course it`s CNR1 or Firedrake
jammer from site f=Fuzhou = per Aoki Fujiang. But also CRI Russian via
Urumqi; so in effect, ChiCom are also jamming their own Russian
broadcast, altho widely apart geographically (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** INDIA. (15280), Jan 26 at 0430-0630, Republic Day parade in Delhi
supposed to be on SW, but I don`t even try as this is a visual
spectacle, easily seen on DD KISAN stream LIVE via

At first there were countless military units, unless a band playing,
everyone goosestepping and matching each step by hoisting left arm
with a white glove. Huge variety of very decorative uniforms. Also
missile launchers and other hardware. Eventually moved on to numerous
non-military floats, putting the Rose Parade to shame; and finally
flyovers. Occasional English commentary mixed with Hindi. Interspersed
with shots of stoic leaders observing, PM Narendra Modi, President
Smt. Droupadi Murmu; also a guy under a big black fez, Indonesian
Pres. Prabowo Subianto visiting. See them both here:

Huge crowds lining the route. Wide shots could not hide the smog in
the distance. Certainly worth viewing. Ron Howard provides the
ondemand link totaling 5:17:45:

Here`s a half-sesquihour version emphasizing the military, starting
with horseback:

** U S A. 26110 NBFM, Sun Jan 26 at 1541 UT, talk at S5/S6, not nearly
enough for full quieting, no doubt KMK282, Stockton/Sacramento, cuing
auxiliary of KOVR/KMAX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2279 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday January 26 at 0100 on WRMI 9955, S9+5 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 26 early from 0402 UT the 0415v on
WA0RCR, 1860 AM, following ARRL news. Nearby Warrenton MO SDR still
offline; not playing well in Peoria, where 1860 has distorted QRM from
a Peoria broadcast station - some overload, not an harmonic, no 930
locally. Best into far Maryland SDR, S7/S9 with no such problem. Also
heavy CW QRM due to some contest, Winter Field Day. CW is authorized
for entire 160m band, 1800-2000 but normally plenty space without
hitting 1860. See https://wa0rcr.com/sched.html

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, Jan 26 at 0754, JBA talk, as RV is still
on past previous 0658* as also reported last night by several. Now
9955 WRMI is equally JBA, unlike much stronger 9395 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VATICAN. 15565 // 13830, Sun Jan 26 at 1550, VR Amharic
synchronized so from same site SMG as listed, despite huge signals
especially on 15565 as if aimed thisaway instead of thataway (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 272 MCW kHz, Jan 26 at 0739 UT, JBA carrier the only
something of interest on the LW beacon band: too many possibilities
but most likely by proximity: LD Lubbock TX, RU San Marcos TX; IK
Kankakee IL, or OLY Olney IL (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
