** BONAIRE. ``Hi Glenn… in your post “International MWDX to Enid OK,
March 22-28, 2021” to the NRC-AM group, you suggested that they “must
be deliberately attenuating it, understandably” on the Kiwi SDR. Indeed -- hovering your mouse on the blue “TWR Bonaire” tab at the top
of the waterfall display, a message on a longer yellow tab comes up:
“TWR Bonaire PJB3 - 30dB notch filter on 800kHz to prevent receiver
overload.” 73, Randy Stewart, Battlefield MO`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** COSTA RICA [non]. Berny Solano sent beautiful large-format 2021
calendar portraying the trees of CR, ÁRBOLES MÁGICOS, put out by the
foundation of the same name, http://www.arbolesmagicos.org
It`s almost a foot square, 14.34 x 14.34 cm. Berny had offered this
for all reports on his `Mundo Sorprendente` holiday special, along
with QSL card also enclosed, for 24 Dec 2020 at 01-02 on WRMI 7780.

As scanned here, or Nos. 119 & 120 via:
http://www.worldofradio.com/QSL.html Tnx, Berny! His show is originally on TIRCR, 930, 5 kW in San José.
WRTH 2021 shows a dagger next to it, without explanation, unlike
double-dagger which means inactive. Only on faraway page 659 do we
find that single-dagger means: irregular. Is it? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** IRAN. 7325 & 9620, March 29 from 2350 past 2400+, zero signals from
VIRI in Spanish, checked via Virginia and Bonaire SDRs, despite A-21
registrations there for Latin America thru end of October. Meanwhile
AER posted on ForoDX another notification from station that SW would
be ceasing as of March 29: ``Nos dirigimos a usted para informarle, hoy, 29 de marzo de 2021, la
Redacción Española de la Voz Exterior de la RII, como emisora de la
onda corta, se despide de los queridos oyentes que durante más de 40
[años] nos han acompañado, siguiendo la programación y alentándonos
con sus amistosos mensajes y cartas. Por medio de la presente anunciamos que la radio, en onda corta de
Irán a partir de la misma fecha se integra al canal de televisión
iraní en lengua española HispanTV, desde la cual continuará su trabajo
como una radio por Internet...`` Not crying wolf, this time they really mean it. However Wolfgang
Bueschel confirmed some other languages, at least Albanian and Hausa,
were still SW airing today. For the record, in case any further checking be done, A-21 Spanish:
0720-0820 15440 17815
2020-2120 7375 9665
2350-0120 7325
2350-0250 9620 And English evidently continues:
1520-1620 7410
1920-2020 9835 9855
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, new A-21 North American frequency of REE was AWOL on
first day of season March 28, so I am QRX for it March 29, supposed to
start at 1800 M-F. Monitoring via Virginia SDR at first: *1755 with IS
at S5, at 1756 powered up to S9. At 1803 to my own R75 deeper in NAm,
it`s S8/9+10. I plan to check it at least hourly this afternoon to
find how long it last or when it fade out; by 1843 has weakened to
S9-S7, fading. It`s roughly equal to 15520 to ME, off the back to us
but which is not fading down; better than 11940 to S America. Oh2, at 1857 check, 17855 keeps cutting off and on the air, and stays
off after 1900 --- never to be heard again; nor on ex-9690. So that
transmitter is upacting again wherever it may be. Still off at 1930
even into Virginia. At 2200 when it`s the new earlied time for token
English, we have no choice but backward 15520, which is still S9+10
into VA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2079 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday March 29 at 0230 on WRMIs: 7780, S9, after ID and music bit;
5800 S9+10/20. Checking what`s going on at our former A-season time, 0300 UT Mondays
on WBCQs: 6159.93 still with white-racist `Herald of Truth` which was
moved here because 7490 had to go off at 0430 for WHRI at least on
weekdays, not any more; but now WBCQ 7490+ is still going with TOMBS.
So maybe we are stuck at 2200 Sundays in the summer daytime. Also, via UTwente SDR, confirmed on IRRS 7290 presumed Bulgaria,
Monday March 29 from 1800:47, modulation cutting on after the WOR
theme has started, very loud and overmodulated. Atop CCI from CNR
Chinese which causes a slow SAH, scheduled to quit at 1805* but I`m
late for lunch and don`t keep listening. Presumably intact, WOR
concluding at 1829:36 without chop, IRRS ID and FSN. This is all one UT hour earlier due to imposition of DST in Europe. I
was monitoring from the start: At 1747, 7290 had CCI between China and
VIRI in Russian, but Iran quit as scheduled by 1749.5* leaving S5-S6
of CNR. During a Chinese song, at *1756 IRRS carrier comes on, shortly
powers up to S9+20, open except for some hum. Instead of sign-on,
continues silent, no mod until WOR JIP as above. Meanwhile I could
hear the CNR top-of-hour timesignal. Meanwhile I have also been checking out the adjacent+ channel QRM as
heard by UTwente. This splash has been a serious drawback all
B-season, but now it`s better. First at 1747, 7300 has German from
Iran, but nothing on 7295, 7285 or 7280. At 1824 the closest is 7275,
CRI Chinese from Urumqi until 1827*; leaving at 1830 nothing closer
than 7265, CRI Bulgarian via Urumqi, not problems. Thruout there has
been dittering on 7305, not a problem either like it was when on 7290.
Standard remark about East Turkistan. Next: 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2200 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
