** CHINA. 17615, July 11 at 0628, S6/S7 JBA Chinese music. Aoki & EiBi
show CRI doubling up during the 06-07 hour: German via Urumqi, EAST
TURKISTAN, and Mandarin via Kunming. I`ve still hearing this and a
number of other 16 mb signals from the dayside in the summer
nightmiddle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, July 11 at 0645, RHC English during mailbag,
overmodulated & distorted on this erroneous frequency not on every
night, S9+10, // 6165 only S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, UT Monday July 11 at 0647, RHC still on in Spanish with
last few minutes of `En Contacto`, YL with prop info, i.e. solar flux
and A-index predixions for each day thru August 12; source not clear
but much like the SWPC info from yanqui imperialists that I copy and
post. Brief explanation of OWF = optimum working frequency under some
other name. Closing credits with no mention of Arnaldo Coro Antich,
long version of theme with Morse code embedded until 0651, `En Cía.
del Doctor`. Would have started circa 0635, presumably final repeat of
several Sunday airings starting with 1335, which I have not monitored
in a long time. 0635 Monday is *not* included in wb`s SWL / Media
Programs in English, German & Spanish, just Sun 1335, 2235, Mon 0135
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, July 11 at 1438, S9/+10 of dead air from RHC, but a
minute later comes to life. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 730, July 11 at 0703 song in English, so something
unMexican? No, 0705 ID in Spanish mentioned ``W``, and another song in
English. IRCA Mexican log 2021 shows XEX is now only 60 kW and
supposedly Deportes. I guess it can`t be sports 24/7 or is there a
change? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2146 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
July 10 from 2001 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9/+15 into
nearby Noale SDR but noisy, after long IRRS ID at 2000.

Missed checking Sunday July 10 at 2230 on WRMI 5950, distracted by FM
DX opening; did anyone hear it?

Confirmed UT Monday July 11 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/9+5 into Maryland
SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday July 11 from 0301 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160
minus 62 Hz = 6159.938 into Maryland SDR, S8/S9+15. JL gotta go by
0300 this biweek. At 0328 ACI from 6155 VOA signing-on: that`s an hour
of Kin/Kin via SAO TOME. BUT, 6165 RHC is absent altho active later.

Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 750, July 11 at 0701 UT, dead air obviously WSB and for next
few minutes rechecked. News hole failure or deliberate Monday morning
maintenance? AM hardly matters to them since they got on FM (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Sporadic E FM DX July 10: much of the day it was working in
SE USA, slightly out of reach to OK. No DX at first check 2019 UT. MUF
patches often drift westward as the day goes on and by 22 UT it seems
to be worth trying despite the 101-degree heat in the shade and at
least that much in the garaged car.

It`s clear that everything is coming from Florida, so in follow-up
research on the WTFDA FM Database, I`m searching only Florida
frequencies. As usual, all on my own caradio, vertical fender antenna
only, no RDS, my own ears only in real time, no recording, no internet
access until later, all times strictly UT, in chrono order. Some
circumstantial; any correxions or ID help welcomed. I don`t count
stations, states or anything and am not in competition. Rather, each
DX log is a potential learning experience. Distances approx.,
city-of-license to Enid, not site to site, from distancefromto.net
