** ALGERIA. 17600, Sept 11 at 2208, S2/S3 of secular-sounding Arabic talk, no doubt TDA, and the OSOB = only signal on band, since on Sunday 17855 Spain is already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, Sept 11 at 2214, S6/S9 of dead air when RHC is supposed to be Frenching; 11850 Spanish is JBM with JBA plus/minus 10 kHz parasitic spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Unknown if English succeeded at 2300; a while ago someone reported 11880 in Spanish instead of French here after 2200. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, Sept 12 at 0607, RHC English S9+10/20 with humwhine; 6100, S9+20/30 JBM English; all others off including 5040. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 12 at 0608 check, VON is OFF. 7255-, Sept 12 at 1734, VON is ON, signature minus 66/69 Hz offset = 7254.934 to .931, English talk about Nigeria, hard to follow despite S9/+10 into Canary SDR, squeal, lots of storm noise from N Morocco into SE Spain and N Algeria; and 2ACI from 7265, much louder CRI Russian pontificating via Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation. AMNarrow or LSB helps a bit but still squealy. Recheck at 1757, VON is OFF, supposed to run another hour in English and after that Fulfulde vs heavy ChiCom CCI not 2ACI. VON may be cutting off and on erratically should I have cared to keep on it. But by 1817 recheck, the H2Ofall is blank, as Peter, EA8BFK = DJ9PC must have recaptured it for his own hamming as per standard warning. 1907 it`s back, nothing but CRI Turkish, huge S9+10/25 and almost on-frequency. Hard to believe this be all the way from Kunming instead of E Turkistan. SDR location is the CI of Fuerteventura. Antenna is ``80m Loop`` -- measuring 80 metres, or peaking on the 80m band? It worx well anyway on 40m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6920 USB, Sept 11 at 2220, rock music S5/S6. Several reports also as unID, between 2143 and 2225 at least: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101808.0.html Some request QSL anyway; if forthcoming, would it then be IDed, or ``QSLing your unID...``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Sept 12 at 0045, hard rock, some DJ? talkovers unreadable; 0125 quick ID as Radio --something, back to music. Many logs here as Sycko Radio, not exactly at 0125 tho: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101816.0.html BTW at 0051 a noise burst of about 10 seconds, probably RF auto-ignition of my nearest streetlight circa sunset which was at 0045; but not confirmed at visible wavelengths -- i.e. I did not hasten to look out a window (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Sept 11 at 2202, S8.5/S9 of JBM music but this time matchable to 95.7 KXLS ``Lahoma`` Enid, fourth known station local CB pirate has rebroadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: tnx to Vern who explains without my asking what happened UT Sunday circa 0315 UT: ``Hi Glenn, This is to let you know that WOR 2155 did not air in the 22:15 CDT slot on Sept. 10. An area wide power outage from 21:25 to 23:55, caused by a severe lightning thunderstorm in the area. It caused WA0RCR to be off air during that time. Operation did not resume until 23:56 CDT. Vern Jackson`` -- I wish other affiliates would do that. Confirmed Sunday September 11 at 2005, the 2000 on AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+5/18 well atop musical understation. Yesterday 918 was also on and much better into same nearby Noale SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday September 12 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+5 into Maryland SDR with usual noise burst for a few seconds at start. Also confirmed ENDING at 0259 UT Monday Sept 12 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160-, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, and right into Hobart Radio International, both half an hour early! Larry Will says sorry, it was a one-time automation mixup. BTW, HRI program was dated 23 July - 13 August, i.e. was supposed to repeat week after week over a monthlong period, now long past. Next WORs: 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 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html A noncommercial service for which financial support is appreciated to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, by money order or check on a US bank. Or via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, Sept 12 at 0612, this WRMI is S9+20, distorted and splattering again, as far down as 9410 marring BBC. Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330v, Sept 12 at 1523 check, WLCR/WBCQ is still AWOL at least during this hour. What does WLCR own sked say? https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio-broadcast-schedule.html 9330, nonstop 24h including nothing but English 1100-2400, all at 253 degrees, yet specifying different targets: Central/West USA at 11-14; Canada/Upper Mid-West USA at 14-17; East/Central USA at 17-24. Why 253 degrees? I had not realized until tracking it on my NGS Globe with geometer, that it`s aimed right at Enid! Thus WLCR has been dedicated from the outset to convincing ME that the World is flat!! And incidentally that there is some wacky deity, ``Preparing for Yahuwah`s Earthly Kingdom, Established at Yahushua`s Imminent Return!`` -- Y & Y, what`s the diff? Guess I have not been paying attention, but ``don`t spell me Yahweh!``. Cf. WMLK and Station YHWH. Anyhow, no one is in a better position than I to divine whether 9330 be on the air or not during all those hours. 253 degrees also crosses near Detroit, out of USA east of El Paso, and out of Norteamérica across BCS. Eventually it hits Tahiti, and New Zealand. This is slightly beyond the nominal azimuth of all the ``classic`` WBCQ antennas, 245 degrees as in FCC, while 9330 has a wide variety of other angles registered, totally different from own current sked. Still nothing but 9330, no other imaginary frequencies contemplated as in original plan, since they still haven`t figured out how to QSY. For a while they were compensating for this by hiring some time elsewhere, still IDing as if WBCQ, but has anyone heard those lately: current HFCC shows Spaceline, Sofia, Bulgaria for Allan H Weiner: Perhaps only one at a time, or none: 07-12 13840 & 17520, 07-15 15780, all multilingual, daily, 250 kW at 156 degrees to CIRAFs 38,39,48,47E = NE, E and C Africa from Libya to Sudan to Kenya, and Turkey thru Arabian Peninsula, of course including Egypt HQ of the cosmetix magnate instigator, an alien who could not own a US SW station directly. What`s his name? Lotsa luck finding it at https://www.worldslastchance.com/founders-headquarters.html with weasely generalities. New Jerusalem, really? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. RF 27, KFOR-TV OKC ``4`` with premiere of `NBC News Daily`, Sept 12 at 1800 UT. This hour replaces the soapera `DOOL` which has been banished to Peacock after countless decades on real air. Opening gives time of 2 pm in the east, 11 am in the west, --- and 1 pm in St Louis!!! Incredible, a national coastal-based network acknowledging that there be anything such as a different timezone in the great Central US. Will they ever mention Denver, or Phœnix? Evidently it`s running live everywhere, rather than 3-hour delay to PDT, so must require some other program-juggling. This fortuitously coincides with EIIR* super-coverage destined to last at least another week, but by 1808 already moved on to T**** and many other topix. Some of same anchors, but no, not on MSNBC too. Let`s hope it continue to cover the news broadly with twice as much time M-F as `Nightly` which is airing before sundown in most of the country. At least here, confronts `The Talk` on CBS, and an hour after `GMA3` on ABC, hardly hard news there. NBC provides 1822 & 1852 cutaways used for local weather, hostessed by the very pregnant meteorologiste Emily Sutton; https://kfor.com/news/local/big-announcement-kfors-emily-sutton-is-expecting/ She`s also on the pre-sunrise shift, #2 only to Mike Morgan in primetime 4 pm+. Enid`s low this morning was 49, whew! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7932+, Sept 12 at 0610, RV is S7/S8 vs CODAR, 2 x 3966+, back on Monday after silent Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1916 UT September 12
