DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS updated Sept 6: http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
** CHINA. 13130, Sept 6 at 1439, CNR1 jammer, JBA with flutter. None others in the 12s-13s or 10s-11s, which means as I approximately bandscan, 10.7-11.2 and 12.5-13.55 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 25800, Sept 6 at 1507, still no signal from RFI Swahili into RSA SDR, but JBA on 21690. Anyway they are all set to QSY if they dare before end of A-21 season (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GUINEA [and non]. 9650, Sept 5 at 2256, no signal from RTG into UTwente: hastening to check only SW frequency following news of coup, but has been inactive or sporadic for months. There is a JBA carrier, probably VOK in Japanese as scheduled, but more QRDRM from 9655 covering 9650-9660, which would be CNR1 as scheduled 2157-0100 via Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems. Another 9650 check next day Sept 6 at 2225: nothing. Domestic Broadcasting Survey of April 2021 showed 9650 had been heard as recently as March, sked 0600-2400. In Communication of the British DX Club, Lionel Clyne in Kent had reported it July 14 at 1944. It seems my last log of it was January 23 at 0742. May I point out that major broadcasters would not give a QRM break to a small country with only one possible SW frequency; altho Cuba did move off 9650 for some reason (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Sept 6 at 0616, carrier more than usual JBA, presumed R. Kiribati. I note that a PNW DXer who gets it much stronger says no modulation is to be heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6974.9-AM, Sept 5 at 2223, JBA music, presumed pirate Nowhere Radio as particular to this off-frequency. unID reported here between 2010 and 2200 only: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,86017.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6965-USB, Sept 6 at 2217, JBA pirate music and talk. These say Radio Free Whatever from 2207: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,86087.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6885-AM, Sept 6 at 2218, JBA carrier. Nothing reported now in HFU, but most recently in the morning by Dan Robinson, via a remote in New Mexico; et al., Radio Pushka: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85992.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 6 at 2209, this REE for S America is still missing during token English semihour Monday; as `cello music is starting: about time for another ``DX Program`` = mailbag, but not yet. Good on 17855, fair on 15520, and audible on 11670 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 6 at 2227, VOT English is not AWOL today but JBA direct on LSB to avoid USB RTTY (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 420-MCW kHz, Sept 6 at 0623 UT, ND beacon FQ, which is 25 watts from Fairmont, Minnesota. 257-MCW kHz, Sept 6 at 0705 UT, NDB JYR, which is 25 watts from York, Nebraska (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2102 monitoring: confirmed Sunday September 5 from 2000.8 on IRRS SW via Italia AM, 918 kHz, via Noale SDR - as I tune in at 1959, someone in Manchester is already running this frequency! So I camp. But they depart as soon as WOR is heard. BTW, Kiwis think my IP is in Grove OK -- Not. Also confirmed Sun Sept 5 at 2230 on WRMIs, via TN SDR: new 5950 VG S9+10/15; 9955, S9+27. Almost synchronized but probably separate playouts from different Systems. Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 6 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct. Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 6 at 0130 on WRN N America webcast. Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 6 from 0300:38 on Area 51 via WBCQ, 6159.948, S9+10/20 direct but splash from 6165 Cuba. Then I check a TN KiwiSDR in SAM mode which measures carrier offset at 6160.000 minus 30-31 Hz, or 6159.969-6159.970 --- which to believe? Or it might have varied that much in the few minutes between them, but SAM does not show much fluxuation now. BTW, by 0608 recheck direct, 6160- is playing jazz, presumably from the Area 51 webfill, rather than back to TOMBS from 0500; Overlooked? Now these are // if not synch with The Overkiller: 5800, 5850, 5890, 5950, 7570, 7730 for starters, probably also on several 4 and 9 MHz. WOR 2102 next not until Wednesday: 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support; via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com --- Thanks this week to Ray Lappeus who says, ``Former amateur radio op here. Recently returned to SWL as well as your program and enjoying both. Thank you for all the hours and hard work going into this program every week. Ray Wraye Mid Michigan`` One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7489.9v, Sun Sept 5 after 2230, WBCQ with `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, listening better here via TN remote rather than mono webcast which is rather distorted. I expect to catch the first half tomorrow at 2300 on the secret semi-repeat. But: 7489.9v, Mon Sept 6 at 2225 first check, NO signal from any of the 5 WBCQs, turned off since there are storms all along the NB/ME border. Propagation? 7850-RCUSB CHU is audible, and so is 9265V WINB. After 2300 via Maryland remote, still no 7490- but now the webcast is OK for `UBMP` until chopped for McDonald`s! ad at 2330, and `Camp Constitution Radio`, show apparently attached to different national pre-commercials. But does McD really know about such a political adjacency? The rest still missing 2300+ except a carrier on 6160-. 7490- still silent UT Tue Sept 7 at 0015 during `FTIOM` but which is well heard on the webcast of semi-classical documentary movie theme (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 6 at 0616: 711 > 621 strength probably Morocco & Canary; 882 where Wales has lowered power so probably also Canary 20 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0025 UT September 7
