** NORTH AMERICA. 6960-AM, April 18 at 0128, pirate music at S9-S7.
Many logs here say it`s Ballsmacker Radio:

** TURKEY. 9830.03, April 17 at 2216, VOT is on with music, but so is
NAU RTTY, adding up to S9+10, diminished but not eliminated by ANF on
the R-75. A brief English comment by the OM announcer circa 2227, more
music, and RTTY finally stops by 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K. 9800, April 17 at 2058-2100*, BaBcoCk/Encompass IS, so must be
Woofferton, a test? No, I see in Aoki/NDXC that this is ``WBCQ``
World`s Last Chance in Arabic at 1800-2100. Well, this relay has
nothing to do with WBCQ; it started this month since the 500 kW from
Maine proved to be insufficient, but I had not sought nor heard it
until this random hit on the caradio memory bank. I believe others
have said this is not // the simulArabic on 9330 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 18140-USB, April 17 at 1812, KM6TS concluding a contact with
a KA2, and immediately into CQ, which draws another contact with
W7CDP. Mentions that he had had an unusually short distance QSO with
someone in Arizona. QRZ.com shows he is:
``KM6TS USA ELLIOT P QUICK, JR, PALMDALE, CA 93550 USA`` 6m DXMaps show some Es MUFs sufficient for this but not into VHF, let
alone the 88+ MHz FM band. Then I find one other on 18 MHz band: 18150-USB, April 17 at 1814, from Vegas lamenting that it`s a ghost
town, everything on the Strip and beyond, closed. Eventually 1821 ID
as KE7JHA in contact with an AL7.
``KE7JHA USA David B Kutiej Las Vegas, NV 89108 USA``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2030 monitoring: due to a typo in
the file name to WRMI servers only, completely my fault, the new 2030
edition did not play, but instead 2029 repeated Friday April 17 at
2200 on 9955, which had VP reception vs lite pulse jamming; and UT
Saturday April 18 at 0130 on 5010 & 7780, both S9+10/20 but noisy, and
5850 VG S9+20/30. Now corrected, the remaining WRMI airings will be
#2030, and this did not affect any other affiliates or podcasts. Next:

hearing the FKB gospel huxter still talking under the automatic WBCQ
ID, but quits before ``William Tell Overture`` starts. A&A are doing a
new show live from Deland of Fla, trying to be upbeat, main topix
being air conditioning, searchlights, and the superiority of
electro-mechanical equipment over solid state = not subject to RF
interference. While I record the rest of the webcast to check later,
at 0047 I move to monitor the SWs: 7490.1 and 5130 are on, but not
6160v, despite AW having twitted earlier that it would be. The last quarter includes: 6160 has had some issues but will be
working on it; are understaffed in Maine, not enough engineers but
those working are doing the best they can, essential workers, also
observing social distancing from each other and anyone else.
Acknowledges that Hal Turner has been running on 6160 // 7490. Spends several minutes scanning logs from the new Free Radio Weekly
just in, which includes more than usual from me, but AW never credits
the reporters, just goes over some stations, frequencies as if they be
permanent, and program content. Says that 4955-USB was playing
Peruvian music, while I only pointed out it was also frequency of a
legal Peruvian station, not heard. Out of time, no prayer even started
before canned ID cuts him off and into Hal Turner. BTW, I`ve just heard from his son that John Carver, mid-north Indiana,
who usually monitors AAAWWW for us, is fine, but his computer is still
out of order (and I guess no library access either, which might also
explain the silence of Artie Bigley as mentioned at start of WOR
2030). (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7637-USB, April 18 at 0124, encrypted military traffic
except for one ID/codeword ``Moonshine``. In alfanumerix, he is
careful to pronounce 5 as ``fife``; that`s to make it less confusable
with another long-I number, 9 = ``niner``. I`ve previously logged this
frequency in the morning as a ``Triblade`` CAP net. But why the
mumbo-jumbo if it`s Civil? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0336 UT April 18
