** BULGARIA. 11600, Jan 9 at 1505, S3-S7 of dead air, presumably TOMBS
as scheduled 15-17 UT; altho SOH and CNR1 jamming also could be here,
but not much coming from thataway. Not unusual for Brother Scare`s
satellite feed linx to fail, leaving SW transmitters, including US
ones, with dead air, no one paying attention or ready to switch to
webfeed backup; who cares? And this is during Sabbathday disservices,
no less, oh my! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, Jan 9 at 0715, RHC English still on and VG S9+10 with
an American? commenting on Capitol terrorism; also 0722 on 6100 at
S9+20; and at 0726, 5040 open carrier still on at S9+20/30. You never
know whether any of them will be on after 0700 and if so whether for
the full final hour. May depend on whether sloppyrators have dozed
off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13575, 13638 approx., Jan 9 at 1457, extremely distorted
spurblobs with F# tone from RHC 13700-AM, not very strong, while on
the plus side, 13763 is S7; at 62-63 kHz intervals, next one up should
be around 13825, but not detectable vs huge 13820 Radio Martí.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 9 at 0718, no signal from VON; unknown if on
11770- instead, 25m dead (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13565-CW, Jan 9 at 1456, K6FRC HIFER beacon is JBA, but
always noteworthy as a 1.8-milliwatt transmitter from Patterson,
California. None others audible in the ISM band (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2068 monitoring: not confirmed Saturday Jan 9
at 1300 on WRMI 15770, zzz. Did anyone hear it? Probably Ken Zichi
will report it eventually from habitual monitoring along with SW

thanks this week to Robert Zerilli, Hazlet NJ, for a contribution via
PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com and commenting: ``I`m a long time SWL
and appreciate you being out there`` One may also contribute by MO or check in US$ on a US bank to Glenn
Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, UT Sat Jan 9 at 0324 check, WRMI with `Freedom Synergy
Radio` concluding and probably going on to another episode at 0330; an
`open` hour where it seems FSR may appear on no/short notice instead
of whatever else be scheduled; so beware UT Tuesdays vs Wavescan and
WORLD OF RADIO. This one had a New Year message so seems fairly recent
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4980, Jan 9 at 0728, WRMI reads S9/+10 but muffled audio
undermodulated, and I`m not even sure of language before goes into
music; then unseems // any other WRMI frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 7505.00, Sat Jan 9 at 0327, weak gospel huxter in English,
poor S5-S6 barely above S5 noise level. Got to be reactivated WRNO
after long absence: I last logged it Oct 22 & 27, and found it missing
when checked Nov 10 & 18. MARE SWBC summary shows Harold Frodge last
had it on some unknown October date (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search: quite a while since
I have done this as a night-owl sleeping past sunrise here; but Jan 9
I happen to be awake by 1350 UT so I check anyway altho the sun has
just arisen at 1343, which is just past the earliest of the year at
1344. On the hand-held DX-398 with internal antenna only and battery
power, I do hear plenty of carriers as 9-kHz tuning is slightly offset
minus, audiblizing each where they exist: not exactly in the order
tuned: 594, 693, 729, 747, 774, 828, 873, 972, 1044, 1053, 1089, 1134,
1242, 1287, 1566. All checked loop NW from E Asia rather than WSW from
D Under, as apropos for mid-winter/summer. Likely sources are: 594, 693, 747, 774, 828, 873, NHK Japan
superpowers; 972, 1134, 1566, Korea South; 729 Japan 50 kW, or China &
Vietnam each 200 kW; 1044, China 600 kW; 1053, Japan or China 50 kW;
1089, China 600 kW; 1242, Japan 100 kW; 1287, Japan 50 kW. All
glancing thru the WRTH 2021 frequency listings where the powers are
outstanding. As 1400 approaches I am still getting 747 & 774 carriers, so I hope to
detect NHK time pips for a tad more certainty, but this is not to be
as nearby 780 KSPI Stillwater starts clanging! music at 1359; for
Pete`s sake! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1803 UT January 9
