** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sat May 22 at 1452 tune-in via Pardinho
remote in Brasil, LRA36 in progress, S5-S6 but noisy, with heavy rock
music, just what we need from that continent. 1453 ``Nacional, la
radio pública`` canned ID; 1457 LRA36 canned ID; 1515 efemérides -
this date in history, such as something in 1995y. Sounds like dates
are in marzo, i.e. an old show playback? Or is it ``mayo``, with the
cono-sur accent like ``mazho``, very hard to tell them apart.
At 1519 I switch to the PT2FHC Brasília #1 Kiwi where the signal is
very weak S1-S2 but better SNR. Mostly non-rock more pleasant music
with IDs frequently interspersed such as 1527, 1531; 1537 the
Antártida song signifying end of show; 1540 fading almost out, another
song. 1544 reopening with 4-language intro; 1547 Antda. song and
welcoming us to program, a different one?? 1555 operatic song; 1600
ID, march tune, then long lexure but too weak to get much out of it;
still going past 1621. 1646 ID, music; 1651 another ID and efemérides
again with the marzo/mayo confusion. 1705 more IDs and music past
1713. 1719 the Antda. song. 1725 just about faded out but still on
with music, S1 vs noise level. Recovers some, still at 1741 Antda.
song again; 1750 more songs at S2 past 1804 when I break for a lentil
lunch; 1818 ID with contact info for QSL; past 1832. I`ve used up my
allowed 3 hours on that remote so back to Pardinho: 1832 now up to
S6-S7, mostly music; 1846 Antda. song, finally stopping? NO, pause and
more music past 1913 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13628 approx., May 22 at 1442, FMish spurblob from RHC 13700
is S3-S4 here, and only a trace on opposite 13772. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. Unrelated 13740 is also on at S7-S8 but JBM. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN [non]. 7355, May 22 at 0506, news in English, mostly about
USA; what`s this? NHK Warudo Radio Japan via FRANCE, as scheduled only
on UT Sat & Sun; other DOW, at 0430-0500; S9+10/20 so has to suffice
for North Americans abandoned directly by NHK years ago. Beam is 155
degrees toward CIRAFs 53 & 57 = from Tanzania to Madagascar to RSA to
Namibia, where people are still allowed to listen on SW; therefore
directly off the back would be 335. Uplooked later, the // is 7245 via
Vatican to W Africa. 0545 recheck, only residual pulse jamming on 7355
against no Martí but which I was not noticing while NHK was emitting
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, May 22 at 0511, RNZI is S9+20, and the OSOB;
had been starting at 0600 except when absent. Current sked at
https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen
shows 11725 at 0459-0658 daily; preceded by 13840 which changed as of
May 17 to 2058-0458. Currently never in use: 15720, 9700 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 18116-USB, May 22 at 1445, K5EC calling ``CQ Parx on the
Air`` over and over with no response for a minute or two; eventually
says he is in Bryce Canyon NP. Rather rough modulation and the OSOB,
tnx to HF sporadic E barely exceeding 18 MHz MUF. QRZ.com home info: ``K5EC USA flag USA, JOHN R BONICA, HOUSTON, TX 77096-2305 USA

WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2087 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 22 at 1307 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, S8-S9. Next: Confirmed Sat May 22 from 1800:34 on IRRS via Bulgaria 7290, resumed
after a two-week pre-emption break. Via Padova SDR, checking 918 Villa
Estense, Italy which is supposed to duplicate, but since 1756 it keeps
playing music past 1804 as I break for lentil lunch, but then at 1819
I find WOR has been JIP in the meantime, and both play to conclusion
1829:34 but not exactly synchronized at least via two different
remotes. Earlier tune-in of 7290 via UTwente: 1756 the ute warble is
back on USB but inaudible on LSB. Open carrier at S9+25. 1759:48
abrupt JIP `Aida`` theme and quick sign-on, pause and WOR plays.
