Hauser
** CANADA [and non]. 245-MCW kHz, Sept 3 at 0610 UT, dash and YZE, ND
beacon 1000 watts at Gore Bay, Ont., and per dxinfocentre.com ``TO BE
DECOMMISSIONED 2020-09-10``; and mixing with FS, 400 watts at Sioux
Falls - Rock SD, anticipating less QRM.

326-MCW kHz, Sept 3 at 0615 UT, short dash and YQK, 200-watt ND beacon
at Kenora, Ont.; I was tuned to 325-USB

413-MCW kHz, Sept 3 at 0628 UT, dash and YHD, 250-watt ND beacon at
Dryden, Ont. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, Sept 3 from 1345: none higher than:
13020 JBA; 12190 JBA carrier; 11460 S5-S7; 11440 JBAC; 11155 JBAC,
else? 11150; 11120 S3-S4; 11100 JBAC; 10960 JBAC; 10920 S2-S3; 10820
S3-S5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9, Sept 3 at 0557 once again no VON (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 20, Sept 3 at 0345 UT a UHF/VHF bandscan prompted by
minor area tropo of levels 3-2-1 between here and OKC, per Bill
Hepburn`s maps does get something: a mostly solid signal on RF 20 into
my still broken antenna, from DTV 42-1 KBZC-LD. A rare glimpse of an
``Enid`` TV station, in Enid! Axually, Enid is only the community of
license, why? while the transmitter site is the NE OKC Antenna Farm
along with all the major TV and many FM stations, just south of the
Kilpatrick Turnpike, per rabbitears.info, 7.2 kW ERP at 328 feet above
ground. Approx. 100 km from Enid. Has 7 channels, all with same PSIP
ID: KBZC-LD. First I survey the content of each channel, then compare
to r-e listings:

42-1, commercials, but is Quest, logo circle-Q in lower right, 0400
reality show Ice Road Truckers
42-2, infomercials, no bug
42-3, BUZZR, bug LR, game shows
42-4, GetTV, bug LR showing part-time
42-5, infomercials, no bug; but at 0400, `Bonanza`, whence??
42-6, infomercials, no bug
42-7, ShopLC - formerly Liquidation Channel
This is one of those DTV America outlets providing a minimum of real
programming, certainly nothing new or informative.

RF 21, at 0358 UT Sept 3, slightly weaker bad signal starts to decode
while a top-of-screen streamer IDs as ch 19, KUOT. Listed as 5
channels of 3ABN stuff, 15 kW ERP from much further, the SE corner of
OKC, near SE 95th and Bryant (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Wed Sept 2 at 2200, VOT cuts on just in time,
allaying fears of yet another no-show, S9+40 as monitored via UTwente.
Usual features; news, press reviews, `This Day in History`, `Did You
Know That?` between music breaks, COVID-19 PSA, but by 2220, yet again
no `Letterbox`, just more great Turkish music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365-MCW kHz, Sept 3 at 0624 UT, ND beacon AA, which is 100
watts from Fargo - Harwood ND. I was tuned to 363-USB (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2049 monitoring: confirmed Wed Sept
2 from 2100:18.5 on WBCQ 7490.057v, sufficient S7 via Rochester SDR.

Also confirmed UT Thu Sept 3 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, JBA here.

NOT confirmed UT Thu Sept 3 at 0130 on WRMI 5010 & 5850; instead music
continues from RNEI, which is now scheduled at 0100-0200 Thursdays;

WOR has been moved, as I requested, 24 hours later to 0130 UT FRIDAYS
on 5850 and 5010 - which means that will be first SW airing `hot off
the press` minutes after it`s finished produxion, starting with #2050
Sept 4, unless there be some problem holding it up (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. Re my WRMI log under CUBA [non], of 5800 in Spanish after
0300 UT Wednesday Sept 2, assumed to be an expansion of R. República
from UT Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon only, I later check the skedgrid now updated
as of Aug 30, showing that hour really occupied by the Argentine media
program La Rosa de Tokio. WS & WOR remain at 0300-0400 UT Tuesdays,
and also a new repeat of `Encore` on UT Thursdays; the other days
remain blank hiding the existence of Radio República. But should R.R.
wish to expand to 7 dpw we`re all gone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5950, Sept 3 at 0553, WRMI is S9+10 of dead air instead of
SMTV; which had returned to normal after a couple days of
double-audio; silence in compensation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13093.6, Sept 3 at 1343, 2-way in colloquial Spanish,
one side with very loud ``engine noise``.

10828-USB, Sept 3 at 1350, 2-way in Spanish, both encountered during
CNR1 jammer bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1646 UT September 3
