** ANTARCTICA. Missed checking for LRA36 Sat June 18 around 1500. Did
anyone hear it? Have seen no reports (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 4924.835, June 18 at 0606, JBA carrier. A few hours earlier
Manuel Méndez, Spain had reported R. Aparecida reactivated after 5
years --- but it used to be on 5035. Further monitoring by Rafael
Rodríguez and MM concluded it`s really what you would expect on 4925v,
reactivated R. Educação Rural, Tefé, Amazonas, but it was relaying R.
Aparecida network overnight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 13020 & 13130, June 18 at 1436, CNR1 jammers vs SOH, both
S6/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, June 18 at 0610, RHC English with big humbuzz; clear on
only other frequency 6165. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, June 18 from *1459.8 c/on and soon s/on in
English from V of Martyrs Korea and right into Dhivehi. Still going
tho not checked lately, from secret site perhaps Taiwan (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA [non]. 11770-, June 18 at 1657, still nothing from VON; SDR
in Canary Islands gets only a JBA carrier averaging 0.5 Hz minus,
presumably Urumqi, standard denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Nearby beacon check June 18 at 1839 UT: 255 SW StillWater
is still off; 515 PN PoNca City still on (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A. Sporadic E DX paths get tantalizing close geographically and
MUFilly for the FM band, but not quite, so anyhow I tune for 10 m

``Welcome, all ham appliance operatooors to my personal QRZ Biography.
And special thanks to Glenn Hauser (World of Radio) of Enid OK, for
his personal critique & review of my bio and notoriety in the nonsense
of the hobby. Everyone wants to be a shining star in some regard these
days. Just look at what Reality, Tabloid & Fox TV have done for the
country. If the upward curve trend continues, we may all become cigar
smoking, smartphone clutching, drooling, incessant, incontinent,
knuckle-dragging, lying, dancing celebrities wearing pink tutu's. It's
gonna be great I tell ya'. Always be sure to click on the Greyed out & blocked YT videos on my
Bio page. They are the most interesting, personally rewarding,
redeeming and technically challenging to watch for hammies.`` He must be referring to what I wrote a biyear ago as in:

Blitzortung, no lightning nearer to Monticello than Nova Scotia. Then
I see this at 0206 from UB Tilford: ``FYI, Thor is throwing his hammer

yeah, the new NBCWO show on Sat only, leaving R. Tirana relay in
English only for Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri/Sun. But is there a new program even
produced on UT Sundays? Long ago when RT was a real SW station itself,
they took Sundays off. I do wish that when committed to relay a daily
or almost-daily service, it would not be bumped off part of the time;
the other being Wed for RFPI Russian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130, June 18 at 1840 UT quick check, KLEY Wellington KS is

several chex June 18 don`t get any of it here - until after 0000 UT
June 19, when I try the hot caradio again with vertical fender antenna
only, no RDS and no internet access in real time. Even so I get a few
signals here and there only in the bottom half of the FM band. 93.3 at 0009, OKC stn fighting with DX CCI: ad sounds like Cali
Customs, then Firefly Festival; 0010 ``#1 hit music station, BoB?
93-3``. 0012 ad for uqora.com/radio - fortunately they finally spelt
it. 0013 Carolina mentioned. 0014 National Dodge-Chrysler-Jeep-Ram ad
on highway 17 in Jaxonville. ``We`re jackin` this in Jaxonville``,
more adstring; something about a national music request line in from
several states, 0016 finally playing a song. I can`t imagine why
anyone would voluntarily listen to a huge string of hardsell ads first
--- other than for IDing DX! If one searches the WTFDA db on city only, spelt Jacksonville, wasting
a lotta letters, one quickly learns that such a town exists not only
in NC and FL but also TX, IL, AL, AR, OR, GA, each with one or many FM
stations. But would you believe not a single one on 93.3? Must be a
rimshotter so now I shall seek likely NCs or FLs nearby: None of the
FLs nicknamed Bob. Here it is:
WERO 93.3 WASHINGTON NC CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO BOB 93.3 100.0 kW 543.0
m --- however, Wash & Jax are about 60 miles apart hardly neighbors,
but certainly within a common 100 kW coverage area. From Enid: 1873
km == 1164 miles. The Firefly music Festival might be a local
reference? But it`s in Dover, Delaware, this September. There is no DE
at all on 93.3 94.1 at 0017, Jaxonvil, North Carolina mentioned: must be this right
up the coast at a little town of 900:
WNBU 94.1 ORIENTAL NC GROOVIN OLDIES 94.1/97.9 11.0 kW 148.0 m ---
1915 km = 1190 mi 99.1 at 0018, K-LOVE. Oops, none in the Es area, rather KTLI 100 kW El
Dorado KS, just NE of Wichita; had not noticed this before. Fades in
and out quickly as if Es rather than dynamic 100-degree groundwave
--- 182 km = 113 mi 96.3 at 0020, far-right extremist talk show, caller blasts Biden. Show
maybe called John Perry? Ad for My Pillow. Must be this in PTA, the
only full power in NC, and aptly called!
WRHT 96.3 MOREHEAD CITY NC TALK 96.3 100.0 kW 150.0 m --- 1918 km =
1192 mi 95.1 at 0023, ad for something in Hempstead on highway 17; Kia in
Jaxonvil; 0025 store in High Point; Kysol? Palms. 0026 Lenoir County
Public Schools congrats to grads; ``The Beast in the East, 95.1 WRNS``
--- so now there is no doubt about the slogan, as already heard a few
days ago, but still not in WTFDA db:
WRNS-FM 95.1 KINSTON NC COUNTRY YOUR COUNTRY 95.1 WRNS 100.0 kW 459.0

However, Hempstead or similar spelling does not check out for Kinston
area, nor a hwy 17: maybe something else, but surely not LINY. Lenoir
County does contain Kinston --- 1831 km = 1138 mi 97.5 at 0027, K--- 97.5, creditrepair.com but voiced by local DJ?
1-800 number. Community Tax, 1-800-375-7841. 0030 still adstring, Ox
Car Care, 800-736-##73. No match or specific location for Community
Tax and the 800#. Ochs car rental or other car co`s in Missouri,
Pennsylvania. But a hit on K 97.5 in NC::

WCMS-FM 94.5 HATTERAS NC COUNTRY BIG 94.5 FM 100.0 kW 299.0 m --- 2001
km = 1243 mi. At 0037 I belatedly install the big box fan in the back seat 92.1 at 0041, caterwauling, brief Es-like peak, whew 97.3 at 0044, silly puck game, Colorado Avalanche vs Tampa Bay
somethings, appears to be ice hockey of all things; wild play-by-play
from Ball Arena, which is in Denver. Score so far 3-0. WFLA 970 is
home station of Tampa Lightning team; no 97.3 listed in its small
network. If we are still in eastern NC, maybe altho not sports format,
as this is a Big Deal Stanley Cup game:
WMNX 97.3 WILMINGTON NC URBAN CONTEMPORARY COAST 97.3 100.0 kW 269.3 m
--- 1821 km = 1132 mi 96.5 at 0052, about to quit as Es seem to have faded out, but among
CCI here, some station invites visitors to its studio at 109 --
something street. Could just be one of the Okies? No, does not fit for
KECO or KRAV. Could we get an ID just from that clue? No fit either
for the only fullpower in NC, WFLB. I do quit and start researching this report with AC in shack, but
DXMAP is still showing lots of Es even on 2 meter band! (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 11835, June 18 at 0629, RV active tonight on 3 x 3945 with
song at S9/+10, amazing signal for an accidental? harmonic. JBA
