** ALASKA. 9580, April 27 at 1421, VP S4-S5 rock music, presumed KNLS
as now scheduled for English this hour on what will always be for us
the #1 Radio Australia frequency before it self-destructed. Recall
that right after that, as I suggested, WRMI registered 9580 at 0900-
2100, thus ``reserving`` it but never implemented, much less an RA/ABC
relay whether the Aussies liked it or not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13739.240, April 27 at 1342, RHC knocked itself off-frequency
again, VG. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST) ** IRAN. 11660, April 27 at 0243, YL talking, eventually recognized as
Spanish on fluttery S9/+10 signal; S Asian music, 0247 mixed with
sounders uttering times and SW frequencies of several VRII SS
broadcasts, and some on satellite, off at 0250:34*. This one is three
hours long from 2350, 500 kW, 328 degrees from Sirjan for parts of
CIRAFs 7, 10 and 11, i.e. crossing N America from the tip of Greenland
to New Orleans, close to Mexico City. A mostly night path starting to
propagate summerlish. HFCC shows Spanish also on 7230 at 2350-0120,
and 9550 at 0020-0320: strange, offset times. Also has Spanish to
Spain mornings and evenings (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 26 at 2220 check, VOT English is on today,
fair. And so is erroneous German at 2313 check, still only fair (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1979 monitoring: confirmed first
American SW broadcast, Friday April 26 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, good, not
upcut at start, but final number ``1979`` overlapped by fill music.
Also confirmed UT Saturday April 27 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, fair. Thomas VÃlkner advises that Hamburger Lokalradio is off air this
weekend for maintenance. Next: 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7490.17v, UT Sat April 27 at 0004, WBCQ, Allan Weiner from
Deland of Fla opening what he has just renamed from today, ``Allan And
Angela Worldwide`` in honour of his co-host wife (who rarely says
much), and tells Larry Will to change it on the website: not yet; so
now it`s AAAWW. Soon says the 500 kW Superstation is getting close to
on-air testing (like it was two weeks ago). AAAWW also on 9330+v
instead of TOMBS; something else on 5130+v; and no signal a tall on
3265-v. Have not heard yet from John Carver for the rest of the story
this week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9475 & 5830, April 26 at 2331, neither WTWW-1 frequency is
on the air (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9265V, UT Sat April 27 at 0240, beepery from Kim`s
`Shortwave Radiogram` via WINB, and yes, this transmitter is still
wobbling. I wonder if that degrade SWRG decode? Maybe not if BFO not
engaged (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 11610, April 27 at 0245, call-in about Luther on the
Catholic Radio Network, S9/+20. Did he repent on deathbed? It`s WEWN`s
new English frequency overnight I had not noticed before, since ex-
11520 was easily overlooked. This one fades to JBA carrier by 0252. EWTN website still shows B-18 sked of 11520, et al.! :
http://ewtn.org/radio/freq.htm
So check HFCC A-19 registrations, which may be excessive beyond usage:
English 00-09 11610, 09-13 9470, 19-24 15610
Spanish 00-14 5970, 14-24 12050
BTW, CNR westward from Beijing is also on 11610 at 23-13. Not
``Bejing`` as WEWN spells its 335-degree target on 9470 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1645 UT April 27
