** ALBANIA [non]. 7730, Sun Apr 17 at 0608, WRMI S9+10 with travelog
of Albania, S9+10, so R. Tirana is still the primary occupant at 0600,
altho on April 13 Ivo Ivanov reported RFPI at this time: that may be
only weekly on Wednesdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN [and non]. 9880, April 16 at 2237, CRI Esperanto, VG
into UTwente, fluent YL with continuous musical bed; run across as I
am tracking Cairo. Via Kashgar, standard denunciation. Only Commies
SWBC in Esp`o, CRI and Cuba, per:
https://www.addx.de/cgi-bin/hfp.cgi
which shows RHC Sundays at 0600-0630 on 6100; really, instead of 0700?
I did not reconfirm either today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.951, April 16 at 2227, R. Cairo suptorted music, S9+30
into UTwente; at 2236 can recognize talk in Portuguese distorted, so
now ``9900`` is the 2215-2230 Brazilian service instead of English at
2115-2245 which is now scheduled and sometimes heard on 9440, but
nothing there now. That would require two transmitters at once;
possible? So I keep checking for subsequent emissions:

9884.951, April 16 at 2333, now Cairo in Arabic to S America, S9+45
with occasional modulation peaks breaking thru. Still suptorted at
0042 April 17, now S9 tuning direct. Note the close match of the
-49/50 Hz offset from one frequency to another.

9889.950, April 17 at 0044, has now already upslid 5 kHz for the 0045
Spanish service, same horrible modulation, but I missed the
transition. Measured via UTwente not until 0157 when about to end,
S9+20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6934.9 AM, April 17 at 0306, JBA talk, music, only
sign of a pirate as I haven`t been searching earlier during `prime
time` UT Sundays. These say it`s KMUD on ``6935``:

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2134 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
April 16 at 1930 on WRMI 15770, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR but only
S4/S5 into UTwente and with RTTY warble on the LSB.

Also confirmed Sat Apr 16 at 1931 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO,
S9+10 into nearby Warrenton SDR, about 11 minutes into so started
early about 1920

Also confirmed UT Sunday April 17 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+5 into
Tennessee SDR with storm crashes but better here than some other US
remotes.

Also confirmed UT Sunday April 17 at 0320 on WA0RCR 1860 AM, MO, about
8 minutes into so started circa 0312: S9+10 vs S9 local? noise level
unusual for nearby KB0FX SDR; amid R2 blackout but that should affect
the dayside, not nearby darkside groundwave. Axually better now into
Knoxville SDR, S9 with some storm crashes not nearby.

Also confirmed Sunday April 17 at 1402 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292,
Germany, 9670, about S4 into Castlegar, Ireland SDR, while Carlow
waterfall was blank; and not audible at UTwente = too close skipping
over. I tuned in just in time to hear WOR 2134 ending, so this week
must have started at 1333; then immediately into Russian. Next:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy; & 918?
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [to be canceled? still Apr 3 but 10?]
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW
0300vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW
2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB

** U S A. 5950, April 17 at 0000, WRMI with second of three
consecutive Texas Radio Shortwave hours, this one being `Howdy
Neighbor` with music by Oklahomans, or about us. I make a few but not
continuous notes: Opening synthyl says broadcasting from the Arkansas
River between Port of Catoosa and Fort Smith, Arkansas. Songs are
pre-announced in groups of three; first including Jack Guthrie. 0011,
a Cadillac Boogie; 0013 surfin` song despite no seacoast; 0019, Prop
Me Up By The Jukebox If I Die; 0025 Tumblin` Tumbleweed by Gene Autry
[who by sheer coincidence came from Gene Autry, Oklahoma!]; 0031 My
Oklahoma by Bruce Springsteen, and no Muskogee; 0045 says neighbor
next week will be New Mexico, and Patti Page coming up. 0058
best-for-last finale, Oklahoma from the Broadway musical and segué to
YROT closing theme. Altho I could have heard it direct, for
convenience at computer I`m listening via Knoxville SDR which is
usually good for WRMI 5950.

From advance publicity: ``New Texas Radio Shortwave Program: TRSW Says
Howdy Oklahoma! At 0000 UTC, Sunday, April 17, On 5950 Khz, with music
by Oklahoma artists and songs about the state. There are some big
names on the artist list; also, we bet you’ve not heard of a few.
Here’s the list: Big Chief Henry's Indian String Band, Bruce
Springsteen, David Gates & The Country Boys, Gene Autry, Gene Pitney,
Hinder, Jack Guthrie, Jimmy Liggins, Joe Diffie, Lester Young, Mary
Kay Place, Oklahoma Movie Cast, Otto Gray & His Cowboy Band, Patti
Page, Turnpike Troubadours, Wanda Jackson. The third eQSL in the
series of four follows the design of the others. Email a reception
report on at least 20 minutes of what you hear to
texasradiosw@gmail.com`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, April 17 at 0609, R. Vanuatu with S8/S9 of talk,
maybe English instead of Bislama, so third harmonic of 3945 still
funxions; 7890 with JBA carrier at second (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
