** ARGENTINA [non]. 5800, UT Tue April 28 at 0230, via WRMI, RAE AAM
opening octolingual hour in Spanish. Fernando says it`s ``Made in
Casa`` #5, but impression from further comments is that was recorded
last week, not today. German YL a few minutes later, usw., etc. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11950, April 27 at 2217, this RHC on earlier than nominal
*2300 for alternate `Mesa Redonda` TV soundtrack. It`s a speech by
some Commie, perhaps a live event, distorted here, but // mainstream
RHC Spanish on 11760, undermodulated 11850 and its spur on 11840;
while 11700 is in Portuguese, 13740 and 15370 are off. 6000 is on at
2225 and the SSOB at S9 --- except it`s dead air. Normally it would be
// 11950 for the separate M.R. at 23-24. By 0214 Apr 28, 6000 is JBM,
perhaps in English like louder 6145. Something`s always wrong at RHC
::: (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11670, April 28 at 0219, RHC Spanish is S9+20, overmodulated
and distorted. 11760 is off already. Not on at 2217, but 13740 is on
now, S9+20. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Just for giggles, let`s check own website frecuencias schedule at:
http://www.radiohc.cu/interesantes/frecuencias
It`s still the B-18 sked! headed
``HORARIOS, BANDAS Y FRECUENCIAS EN ESPAÑOL
PERIODO NOVIEMBRE 2018/MARZO 2019
CAMBIO DE HORARIO Y FRECUENCIA 11 DE NOVIEMBRE``
not including any 11760 in the tarde; but EiBi A-20 shows 21-02 while
11670 is 23-04, 11850 21-05. As for the Esperanto broadcast missing at least the last two weeks
from Sunday 1500 on 11760 & 15140, now the Esperanto page
http://www.radiohc.cu/eo
does provide audio of the April 26 show, which 2+ minutes into
announces the schedule as Sundays: 08 UTC on 6100; 16 on 11760; 2230
on 15730 --- those are winter times! Should be at 07 and 15, but maybe
still at 2230. I`ve checked neither the first nor the last, and who
knows, maybe sometech axually believe it`s supposed to be at 16?(Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 27 at 2214, zero signal from VOT English to
North America. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler, and/or awry at
Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2031 monitoring: confirmed Monday
April 27 at 1800:40 on IRRS 7290, VG via UTwente SDR. Open carrier
already on at 1755 (and Iran in Italian already off, this week!);
1759:40 IRRS sign-on, 3 headlines from Feature Story News, then WOR.
There is no ACI plus/minus 5 on the tuner, but still some QRM on 7290,
apparently splashing out of 7280 Vietnam. After lunch, 1829 recheck
just as WOR has ended, FSN from Washington yet British accent, with
more detail, but cut to dead air at 1832 and still dead past 1838 when
The Shortwave Report should be playing. I hope there were no such
interruptions to *our* SW report. Also confirmed UT Tue April 28 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 here but
noisy so only fair; at 0127 check, poor at UTwente, but VG at remote
in Maine. Next: 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, April 28 at 0010, ``weather around the globe`` ---
followed by --- music! on SMTV via WRMI. Just another example why it`s
not a good idea to run TV soundtrax on radio without ``translating``
video-only info into audio. I can just *imagine* the grafix with maps
and temps, like on NHK Newsline, along with its tiresome always-same
music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, April 28 at 0216, WRMI relaying RPI in Spanish, but as
I tune in with BFO, carrier is breaking up rapidly, then settles down.
Good thing there is an adjacent standby transmitter for this System
and frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7490.097V, April 28 at 0015-0100, WBCQ with `From the Isle
of Music`, jazz as promised this week, mostly music rather than
interviews, fair S9+10. I was glad to advance-publicize a WBCQ special for Tuesday May 5 at
21-22 UT, featuring this and other musical programmers. Unfortunately,
we know that this time of year, reception that early in the day to
this far away will be poor, mostly absorbed before it get here, just
like other shows at 21, Marion`s Attic, BeHAViour Night, and World of
Radio. To be on 7490; and 5130 which will be even worse in the
afternoon. Why not repeat it after dark?? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0434 UT April 28
