Calif. coast; 0606, noted carrier, but no audio (suspect Japan); 0650,
pop songs from Japan starting to fade up; at 0730, fair reception of
Japan. 6055 was broadcasting today. Ron``

** CUBA. 6100, July 20 at 0618, RHC English humbuzzy transmitter is

this by substitute! Both Aoki and EiBi show both from Bauta. 6165 is

another Kashmir Civitas clandestine. Crosstalk briefly at 1501 from
something in Slavic? But Arthur Pozner says it`s Romanian. I listen to
whole thing, strumming background, catching occasional English words
evidently needed for concepts inexpressible in Urdu? Occupation,

** SPAIN. 17855, Monday July 19 at 2301, REE English good S9 but some
deep fades to S3, opens with only a minute of news, then feature about
an exhibition in Madrid of the art of Georgia O`Keeffe. Justin Coe
interview with Marta Ruiz, curator of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum.

I thought they were saying ``Titian`` but Thyssen, near El Prado, is
the museo exhibiting Georgia until August 8:
https://www.museothyssen.org/en/exhibitions/georgia-okeeffe

``The museum is presenting the first retrospective in Spain on Georgia
O’Keeffe (1887-1986). Through a selection of approximately 90 works
visitors enter the pictorial universe of a creative figure considered
one of the leading representatives of 20th century American art.

The exhibition offers a complete survey of O’Keeffe’s career, ranging
from the works produced between 1910 and 1920 that made her a pioneer
of abstraction to her celebrated flower paintings and views of New
York, which led to her recognition as one of the key figures in modern
American art, and culminating with her paintings of New Mexico that
arose from her fascination with the landscape and cultural mix
characteristic of that remote region.

Georgia O’Keeffe is organized by the Museo Nacional
Thyssen-Bornemisza, the Centre Pompidou and the Fondation Beyeler, in
partnership with the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, Santa Fe, New Mexico.
After it has been seen in Madrid, the exhibition travels to Paris and
Basel.``

They had been working for years to bring this about, and despite
delays and concerns about COVID, it is now underway, thanks to loans
from the O`Keefe museum in Santa Fe --- which I have visited, and
others. It was quite a task to get it all safely shipped. Thyssen
museum had only five O`Keefes. The artist had visited Spain twice in
1953 & 1954 but felt her western all-American art would not be
appreciated in Europe. Discussed not only her erotic flowers and
skulls but the whole range of her long career (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4840, July 20 at 0617, dead air again from this WWCR on
S9+30 carrier, no TOMBS but 3215 and 5890 remain nominal along with
5935 DGS. Why should anyone at WWCR listen to their own broadcasts in
order to fix this immediately?? Surely a refund goes to Walterboro, as
obviously WWCR`s fault (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9980, July 20, as I tune across at 1419, someone at TOM on
WWCR says ``Brother Stair is the meekest of all men on the face of the
earth``. Guffaw2. As always huge daytime signal, but some squeal on
the plus side. I think this is ACI from KVM70, Honolulu fax, as per
EiBi at 0519-1600 on 9982.5. That is regular at night when there is no
QRM:
9982.5 0519-1600 HWA KVM70 Fax Honolulu Oc nm
Amazing that KVM70 agreed to the 12-16 UT overlap with WWCR; or did no
one ask them? EiBi also shows this; what`s Cothen? A town in Utrecht
province, Netherlands, where Bach spent some time; but this?

UNIDENTIFIED. Re my repeated logs of JBA carrier on 4975, Ron Howard,
CA says July 20, ``BTW - UNID (SoAm?) on 4975, again heard with a
prominent carrier, but no audio detected, at 0525 & 0730. Ron``

And Rafael Rodríguez R., Bogotá, replies, here translated, original
Spanish in the WOR iog:

``Cordial greetings, A few short lines to tell you about the clues I
have about the unit on 4975 kHz: Since the beginning of the month
(approx. July 4) I have received the carrier at 4975 kHz; at first I
thought it was the European pirate Mystery Radio that I had already
heard on 60 meters a few days before, and then in HF Underground I saw
information about the pirate Radio Deltracks, but at the time they
reported tuning, I did not agree, before 22 UT.

The signal that appears at 4975 is captured after approximately 2330,
thus checking through several KiwiSDR in Europe and more precisely in
Holland at that time and after 00 UT, nothing is heard from Radio
Deltracks; the carrier is not even detected. At the same time,
traveling through various KiwiSDRs in America, only those close to the
Caribbean area capture the carrier.

On the other hand, there is a Colombian pirate operating at 6016.7 kHz
approx. not every day between 2300 to 0200 var. with varied music, and
sometimes broadcasting signals from radio stations such as Olímpica
Stéreo, Caracol, W Radio or Blu Radio. It has been on the air since
mid-March, but then in May and June was off the air, resuming
broadcasts two weeks ago. To the KiwiSDR of Bonaire it arrives very
well which makes me think that this is from the north coast of
Colombia. Sometimes there is some locution but otherwise are only long
waves of music. In April I was able to catch a name "El Prado Radio
Organization" see
6016.4 KHz El Prado Radial Organization - Colombian pirate station,
http://dxdesdecolombia.blogspot.com/2021/04/60164-khz-organizacion-radial-el-prado.html
but only at that time I heard that identification; they have not used
it again. They have mentioned operating at 98.1 MHz. Rafael Rodríguez
R., Bogotá, Colombia``

Lots more good info on his blog. I`ve yet to catch any trace around
6016 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
