** ALBANIA [non]. 7730, August 1 at 0627, R. Tirana via WRMI, opening German service! as if on ``3985``; with strange accent, I guess Albanian. 0629 cut to Everglades ID, and 0630 to Brother Scare. Richard Langley has also been noting this on UT Mondays: the timing of automated recording of RT`s previous English broadcast is misaligned, and after a bit of BS will be turned off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** AUSTRALIA [non]. Jen`s UT Sunday shows in the 18-22 UT slot are inconveniently timed for me when I have other favorite listening; but on July 31 I had the Shoutcast stream running, http://uk4-vn.mixstream.net:8104/ and found it can be paused, so from 2007 it accumulated 2+ hours which I then played back later in segments her World Beat Special. She announces as on Unique Radio 5035, 3210 USB, but current sked and Tim Gaynor confirm she`s on webcast only. Just in from Jen: ``Next Sunday a Real Deal of a Special, anyone for a Rebellion (Fest) of Real Deal R & R music? More to follow towards the end of the week. On the live digital stream, UT Sunday August 7th, 1800-2200. Enjoy our World Beat Cast. Or our Pod. Jen & GB 73 & 33'`` [the full 4:17 July 31 broadcast can be reached here:] https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/uniqueradioaus (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9440, August 1 at 2205, no signal from R. Cairo direct, so I cannot comment on how horrible the modulation would be. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [non]. IRRS/NEXUS/IBA/IPAR on 7125?? As announced: see USA [and non] WORLD OF RADIO monitoring. No, August 1 at 1801 still on 7290 with gospel huxtress and USB warble via UTwente, not on 7125 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, August 1 at 2200, REE another Monday, another week, another month, still no token English as allegedly scheduled on REE; rather another episode of `Canciones Ténebres` about Cuba. Rechecking the English podcast page, still nothing new since 16 July. Ironically, just before the 2200 timesignal was a song about summer in English on the program outroed in Spanish as `Canciones de Verano`. Something`s messed up in Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, August 1 at 2205, no signal direct from VOT English; and still no signal into UTwente at 2253 just before it would have closed. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, August 1 circa 0500, missed checking for UR1 via WRMI with `Ukraine: Security Issue`; so heard later via: http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_31_07_22.mp3 You could reach further editions by changing the date on that. This one for Day 158 includes: 41K Russian soldiers KIA since beginning of war; missile strike on Mykolaiv killed noted businessman and his wife (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2149 monitoring: confirmed Sunday July 31 from 2000.8, on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, not 918 or 207; S9+10/15 into nearby Noale SDR. Preceded by new canned ID by YL claiming frequencies used by NEXUS/IBA are *7125*, 9510 and 1323! Vaguely recall IRRS may have been on 7125 in the distant past, but always has been hamband in Europe! Imaginary now instead of 7290 Bulgaria? see Italy [non]. Still shows 7290 here: https://www.nexus.org/member-services/radio-and-tv/schedules/a22-schedule/ The announcement must be recently recorded, since 1323 was not activated until this year. WOR 2149 also confirmed Sunday July 31 at 2230 on WRMI 5950, S9+20 into Athens, Georgia SDR; Knoxville is running but blank waterfall. Also confirmed UT Monday August 1 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/9+10 into Georgia; but it`s not L&C, a shame this one can no longer be aimed WNW, but SW from FL. Also confirmed UT Monday August 1 from 0259 on Area 51 webcast -- BUT WBCQ 6160- is OFF the air! As checked on remotes and direct - and so is R. Angela 5130-; but 7490- & 9330+ are still on and strong, and there are no storms near Monticello now. What`s the problem? 3265+ is not on either. I should have kept monitoring, but not rechecked until 0355 when both are back on, into Maryland SDR: 5129.973 toward the end of `Concert Hall` on R. Angela; 6159.937 with repetitive looping? music, presumably HRI on Area 51. So I don`t know whether back on with part of WOR before 0328. Next: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 1100 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB [ex-1000; also possibility of repeats later in night] 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html For these noncommercial services, voluntary financial support is much appreciated; via PayPal not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com Or by postal money order or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130 kHz, August 1 at 2212 UT, for the record, KLEY Wellington KS enters another month of dead air; 250 watt day power transmitter seems 24h (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 11835, August 1 at 0633, RV is on but VP unreadable; also JBA carrier on 7890, harmonix of unchecked 3945 where I never expect to hear it despite fundamentalism (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2355 UT August 1
