** CANADA. 300 kHz, Dec 8 at 0727 UT, dash and YIV, 500 watt ND beacon
from Island Lake, Manitoba; logged once before on Sept 16, when I
described its location.

340 kHz, Dec 8 at 0729 UT, dash and YY, 500 watt ND beacon from Mont
Joli, Quebec. I was tuned to 341 where it mixed with local EI, and
first thought it could be an attempt by YYU Kapuskasing to come back
from the dead. Mont-Joli is on the Gaspé coast, just NE of Rimouski,
2761 km from here = 1715 stmi.

352 kHz, Dec 8 at 0732, dash and YKQ, 500 watt NDB from Fort
Rupert-Waskaganish, Quebec. It`s a remote Cree community on James Bay,
but only 2250 km from here = 1403 stmi, atcf (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 5050, Dec 7 at 2314, Chinese talk, VP vs splash from 5040
RHC --- Commies vs Commies! Aoki/NDXC shows:
``5050 2300-0102 CHN Voice of Beibu Bay Radio Chi Nanning 954 1-7``
Their only morning broadcast; have several others in Thai, Vietnamese,
Cantonese, Mandarin. HFCC shows 100 kW at 232 degrees. WWRB is OFF
5050 for the B-season (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 6105, Dec 8 at 1355, Firedrake jamming atop a weaker
station, i.e. RTI. Besides showing RTI *jammed, separate entries for
CNR1 Jamming from Qiqihar 202 site, probably but not necessarily same
when employing Firedrake audio. BTW, don`t you believe! that XEQM
Mexico still exist on 6105 as in Aoki/NDXC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 7470, Dec 7 at 2325, Chinese with echo, i.e. CNR1 jammers
against RFA Tibetan via Tajikistan at 2200-2400. This used to be the
YHWH pirate frequency around 0300-0530 as in Aoki, but quit several
weeks ago. Worth further checking, as Rick Barton, AZ, just reported
YHWH again! on 11650 at 2000-2010* Dec 7; me too Dec 8 at 1900, q.v.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13767 approx., Dec 8 at 1416, weak spurblob from RHC 13700,
and even weaker JBA match circa 13633. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. 9680, Dec 8 at 1445, Japanese alone on frequency. Aoki shows
NHK not starting until 1455, but HFCC shows 1400-, due west (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 6145, Dec 8 at 1357, Korean talk and piano music
from Shiokaze via JAPAN; good and clear here, no jamming audible; the
latest frequency change reported by Ron Howard. The other one listed
by Aoki at 1300-1400, 7245 not checked (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6970-USB, Dec 7 at 2201, `Hearts of Space` type soft
music, S7-S8, off by 2215, unID pirate, and strangely enough, zero
reports of it on HF Underground (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Dec 7 at 2202, FDR speech about Japan`s
attax on several Pacific islands, S8-S9 with background noise
apparently from crowd on original recording. 2206 the famous part
about Pearl Harbor; and then ``Remember Pearl Harbor`` song; 2210
another song, ``Mister Jap``; 2213 song ``I`m Off to Yokohama``; 2216
repeat the FDR ``infamy`` speech; 2224 ID as ``W-F-D-R, New York ---
Good Night`` as if closing down. But soon another? weaker station on
same frequency. Many more logs here:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,61017.0.html
By 2300, WFDR resumed, on 6940-USB:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,61023.0.html
WFDR pirate broadcasts are an annual tradition on Dec 7
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Dec 7 at 2225, weak music shortly after
WFDR closed; 2232 maybe announcement, unreadable; 2310 still on with
some whoops and chimes. Other reports say WENO, Voice of Brian Eno:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,61020.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11650, Dec 8 at 1900, here`s the reactivated YHWH
guy, anti-Christ Josiah with usual earnest evangelism, poor S7. Tnx to
tip yesterday until 2010* by Rick Barton, AZ. Also check 40m evenings,
formerly in 03/05v span on 7470 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 341 kHz, Dec 8 at 0729 UT, Enid ND beacon EI is on again
in the nightmiddle, vs 340 YY in Quebec, see CANADA (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SCOTLAND [non]. 6115, UT Sun Dec 8 at 0100, WWCR-1 opening `Encore`
classical music hour, VG except for usual squeal on the #1
transmitter. Playlist on website is still from last week ``1/12``.
Brice Avery says from next week, this moves to 9350 at 2100-2200
Saturdays, i.e. WWCR-2 without the squeal. 9350 has a super signal
here and there is much less conflict with other programming at that
time; and could also reach awake Europeans, altho nominally 85 degrees
toward Africa. That hour has been for Brother HyStairical, only on
Saturdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7490+, Dec 7 at 2200, Brother Scare
interrupted for WBCQ ID, then dead air instead of resuming. Scheduled
until 2300 on Saturdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. 774, Dec 7 at 0708, starting TA carrier search here to find
this one strong enough for some audio, RNE1 synchros (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2011 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday December 8 starting at 0423 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, VG but with

** U S A. 7780, Dec 8 at 1412, SMTV VP // 15770 WRMI; a rare instance
of two SMTV frequencies at once, 7780 only Sundays at 14-15 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, Sat Dec 7 at 2313, WTWW-2 already on with ham talk
about 160m; S9+40 but overmodulated/distorted as it would be for
hours! By 0106 UT Sunday Dec 8 I notice that `Theater Organ in the
Ozarx` is underway as sometimes happens around this time, Xmasmx awful
with the distortion; also emitting intermittent huge noise bursts
ranging 5050-5110. At first I suspected some new Xmas lights in the
neighborhood, until found this confined to the 5085 area! 0402
recheck, still distorted with rock music. Doesn`t Ted know nor any of
his listeners tell him about this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A. 3185, UT Sun Dec 8 at 0410, gospel huxtress S9 but
undermodulated; not // TOMBS frequencies. So WWRB now using 3185
instead of 3195 when on after 0200, UT Sun and maybe Mon (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5010-, Dec 7 at 2316, WRMI in Spanish vs a LAH = low
audible heterodyne from the minus side. Brings to mind Madagascar
offset, but not supposed to be on between 1500 and 0200 as per
Aoki/NDXC. Don`t you believe! that Honduras or Dominican Republic
exist on 5010 as shown there; they`ve been gone for years. OTOH, India
is NOT listed, but has been reported sometimes; not aware of it being
frequency-low. VU2JOS shows latest AIR info: ``5010 50
Thiruvananthapuram Kerala Malayalam S=zone 0020-0205 1130-1745
(Irregular)`` and 2316 should also be too early for it; unless
something special is going on there or in Madagascar. The two Bauta,
Cuba transmitters on 5040 & 5025 could also leapfrog to 5010, but at
least one of them would have to be off-frequency slightly, which does
not seem to be the case now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Dec 8 from 0709,

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, Dec 8 at 1330-1339
UT just at sunrise here, on the R75 with E-W LW, so no DFing but
probably E Asian more than DU: 558, 594, 612, 621, 657, 693, 702, 738,
