** ANDORRA [non]. 7400, Feb 5 at 2157, another Radio Andorra Revival
special for a bihour, this time via ARMENIA. S9+5/15 into UTwente,
signal good but modulation level fading down and up, and it`s quite
lo-fi, deficient feed to site? Zach Liangas had same reaxion:
``Andorra 7400 final report! 7400 heard at 2133 via local SDR with S9
signal but rather poor reception with lots of local noise and with
very trebly sound. Rather under modulated as like someone turned off
Dolby while playing a cassette and with full treble! Spectrum analyzer
shows that very clearly. In my radio it's much more noise. Check in
central Italy with S10 and splitter in the lab with very trebly sound
lacking bass and up to 35 db of fades. Also test in Brasília with
signal to S10 but strong fading -- Zacharias Liangas,
Temp Litohoron, Greece`` in the WOR iogroup. Anyhow. at my check there was conversation in French rather than
music. First of four airings earlier at 12-14 UT across N America on
WRMI 5850 should have been well received here if anyone were awake. It
seems this is a really big deal in Europe among fans of R. Andorra way
back when. I did QSL it 62 years ago direct on 5972 kHz:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, February 5 at 1544 tune-in, LRA36 is
on! this Saturday to belie my WOR 2124 remark that it had not been
appearing Saturdays, correct as of then. Via Brazil SDRs: Pardinho is
still not getting it: antenna broken? Only S2-S3 into Campo and about
the same to Brasília #2. Music at first, 1545.5 ``Nacional, la Radio
Pública`` ID. 1552, LRA36 ID; still 1619 another ID but fading to JBA
music, 1628 ``NLRP``, 1650 trace; 1715 now better into Campo with
Antártida themesong past 1709; recheck at 1748 now gone. I later see
that Sam Sánchez, Orygun in the WOR iog heard it first at 1352 today
via same remotes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5040, Feb 5 at 0720, RHC Spanish is still on here, S9+40.
This happens so often that we wonder if it`s intentional rather than
accidental. One STL is still carrying English past 0700, today at 0722
check, into 6060 which is S9+20/30 and no humbuzz! and only 9700,
S9+10 with usual anti-American propaganda unworthy of detailing.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side: ``Cuban pastors and 11J: A turning point in the repression of
evangelicals --- Yoe Suárez La Habana 29 Ene 2022 - 04:16 CET Although clashes with the State and acts of punishment or intimidation

the point where a large number of pastors were imprisoned for days,
weeks or months. Until ‘11J’ came along...``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, UT Sun Feb 6 at 0727, this RHC English remains on at
S9+30, maybe to prolong until 0830 with weekly Esperanto? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAIPAN. 11550, Feb 6 at 1550 tune-in, surprised to hear English ID,
``You are listening to Radio Free Asia --`` and back into Korean,
scheduled 1500-1900 via Agignan Point (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2124 monitoring: Confirmed Sat Feb

WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, VG into nearby KB0FX SDR; and ending at 2056, so
started circa 2027. Altho most of my opening billboard country roster
has to be cut because of the music, that time is made up for by
interruptions every dekaminute for WA0RCR IDs, FCC requirements. Also confirmed UT Sunday February 6 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG S9+20

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Feb 6 at 0052.6, WTWW ends hamstuff for canned
ID treating snippet of Star Spangled Banner as if it were a jingle,
but not into `Theatre Organ Under The Arch`, as often happens at odd
hour, and for which I was checking. Instead filled with rock music and
a couple more of same ID, until axually starting at 0100! As if trying
to begin it at hourtop for a change. Unfortunately it`s also time for
`Encore` classical music on WRMI 5850, so over to that for me; as
TOUTA also clashes with The Giant Jukebox on 5960 and Texas Radio
Shortwave on 5950 in the Saturday evening musicglut. I do listen to
second hour of TRSW blues at 0200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505.052, Feb 6 at 0720, WRNO unusually off-frequency and
undermodulated in English, music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 620, Feb 6 at 0708 UT, KTNO ID as ``Radio Luz, Dalas``, then
rabid Spanish gospel huxter. KTNO is dominant here on the frequency
hijacked from KWFT Wichita Falls TX, which was a good talk station; I
was even on its program schedule P-mailing list for years. In Spanish
you would pronounce it ``Dah-yahss`` with two Ls. CoL is axually
Plano, and physical address in Irving (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6018 approx., Feb 5 at 0724, very rapid FSK/RTTY, a new
intruder while the slower 6114 one is absent. At least not QRMing any
broadcaster except the jamming spillover from 6030! Probably unrelated, but look at this in the WOR iog from ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, Log in Friol: UNKNOWN, Mexican? station,
6017, heard for about ten minutes, 0605-0615*, 06-02, Mexican songs,
at 0614 anthem, I think was the Mexican National Anthem and close.
Weak but clear signal here in Friol, also checked via SDR Kiwi remote
receiver in Iceland and exactly the same frequency, 6017 kHz with a
bit better signal, via Pardhino, Brazil, no signal`` Well, Radio Mil, XEOI, used to be on 6010, gone for many years. Its AM
base on 1000, XEOY is now ``Stereo Cien`` as an FM simulcast. BTW, in
Spanish the calls are clever: OY can be pronounced ``oye`` = listen,
and OI = ``oí``, I listened. Of course, Aoki has never removed ``6010
XEOI Núcleo Radio Mil``, daily 22-05 UT! The last definite log of it I
can find is Sept 23, *2013* by Ron Howard with a recording on 6009.97.
At that time, had been reactivated on evening-only schedule after a
previous absence (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. RF 10, 12, 31, 35, Feb 5 at 1550 UT, BAD DTV signals
into the STB, none decoding. Both tropo maps call for a lot of level
1-2 enhancement around here today and next week: it`s been frigid, but
a little warmup over snowpack sets it off. At of 15 UT, area affected
is most of OK and eastern KS. However tropo maps the next morning Feb
6 show much less of it expected (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1955 UT February 6
