Hauser
** BRAZIL. 15189.89 approx., Sept 19 at 2353, JBA S2/S3 Portuguese,
obviously the always off-frequency and always very weak only ZY left
active on 19m, R. Inconfidência, Belo Horizonte (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 18 at 0632, this RHC English is unusually still
on, along with 6100, 6165; but 6060, 5040 are off. Each night, each
hour, a different random combination? Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, Sept 19 at 2347, RHC S7/S9 but JBM barely recognizable
as English, with big hum. NOT // 5040 as scheduled this hour only,
well modulated, loud music, Spanish // 11760 etc. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 19 at 2129, NO signal from R. Cairo, English
into UTwente. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** INTERNATIONAL ATMOSPHERE [non]. News of hurricane Fiona hitting PR,
blacking out entire island, leads me to the Hurricane Watch Net on
14325 USB, via Boca Ratón FL SDR, Sept 18 at 2043, current NCS W2NNU.
Apparently changes NCS each hour? At 2100 it`s K5WAN declaring that
this is a ``directed net`, i.e., follow the orders of the NCS. Reads
latest warnings from National Hurricane Center in Miami: seemingly
repeating every few minutes, or maybe with slight updating. Too much
else is going on Sunday afternoons for me to render this my undivided
attention. Periodically calls for anyone from PR or vicinity to check
in but never heard any. Is that a positive or negative result? Glad
SDR has squelch, never needed for broadcast monitoring. 2205, partial
NCS call as --WCN. 2306 fluent but slightly accented Spanish versions
of NHC notices. Not much heard later, maybe net QSY to 40m by 0000?
7268 LSB, not checked. Call-area numbers no longer mean anything:

W2NNU USA flag USA
JAMES W W WILMERDING
816 Highway 51 South NE
Brookhaven, MS 39601 USA
Lots of info about his background:
https://www.qrz.com/db/W2NNU

K5WAN USA flag USA
Wendell A Neal
90 Church St., Apartment A
Covington, GA 30014 USA
https://www.qrz.com/db/K5WAN
Says he is former storm tracker for KOTV 6 Tulsa

Next day, Mon Sept 19 by 2330, no activity on 14325 despite Fiona
still churning from DR to T&C; how about HWN on 7268-LSB? Very active
at 2340, but some other net as if they own the frequency, ``3905
Century Club`` ``for WAS and DX records``. NCS ending in -GWS taking
numerous check-ins and greets them by handle; net not formally
starting until 2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Sept 19 at 0626, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
resumed Monday after silent Sunday. Shows what only 10 kW on MW can
accomplish over 4500 miles, if only on a clear frequency, audible just
about every night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 19 at 0641, again NO signal from
VON, but not totally inactive:

7254.933, Sept 19 at 1730 into Canary SDR, signature offset VON
carrier is on at S7/9+5, but mostly squeal with trace of unreadable
programodulation, and 2ACI from much stronger 7265, CRI Russian via
Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation, 1732 with horse clip/clop
SFX in dramatic narration, maybe about Mongols conquering Europe?
Watch out. 7255- totally off by 1743 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 9700, Sept 18 at 2356, RRI IS S7/9+10 into Boca FL SDR
until 2357.6*, so presumably my unID OC, 48+ hours ago, concluding RRI
Spanish hour via Tsiganeshti. People keep misspelling it ``Tiganesti``
without the necessary diacritix for which I substitute fonetikaly thus
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Monday Sept 19 at 2200, token English from REE. News
with Amy, too much sports with Hélena; 2211 Justin introduces a
15-minute book-launching talk in 2020y by Carissa Véliz of Prihvacy is
Power, as in: https://www.carissaveliz.com/books VG into Maryland SDR
and other three also audible, 15520, 11940, 11670 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.007, Sept 19 at 2223, VOT English, VG S9+45 into
UTwente only a very light squeal, amid `Feeling Supreme` with teas to
drink countering diabetic insulin resistance. After some music, 2353
std s/off with schedule, a bit of IS to 2355*, no extra German (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, Sept 19 at 0500, WRMI starts UR1 relay as
usual but all UU talk, no English `Ukraine: Security Issue` by when I
quit at 0513, as latest editions also missing from podcasts. But
Richard Langley replies at 1427 UT Sept 19:

``It is there now. As far as the airing on WRMI is concerned, I didn't
do my usual Sunday evening recording of 7730 kHz as I'm in Denver this
week for a conference, so have no confirmation if it aired then.
However, I automatically record Radio Baltic Waves International on
1386 kHz each evening at midnight UTC using the U. Twente SDR receiver
and my UNB desktop computer. "Ukraine: security issue" started at
about 00:13 UTC today (19 September). It was the same edition as that
on the website for 18 September.``

So maybe started on WRMI just as I gave up. Now monitoring the last
three issues. They are no longer announcing at the start the date or
warday number:

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_16_09_22.mp3
For Sept 16: Over 9 minutes, including: IAEA demands R stop occupation
of Zap. NPP. Up to 1000 dead in Izium, twice that of Bucha and other
cities destroyed. Must exhume each body. R fired into Dnep. region,
civilian targets, hydraulic struxures. Pres. of Euro Comm. visited,
Pres Z spoke with her about reaxions to R terror. USA SOS Blinken also
visited. More than 300 energy facilities destroyed in U, thermal power
plants. High risers will have to evacuate with no heat. R attacked Z`s
hometown to demoralise him. U understands what must be done. R tries
to blow up international sanxions. R sent $ 300 million to other
countries. R not understand U mentality, leading to its defeat. U
people back the leadership. Only 8% favor giving up territory for
peace.

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_17_09_22.mp3
For Sept 17, including: UN sending team to investigate war crimes,
Izium tortured bodies. Must recognize R as terrorist state. Whole
families buried, more than 400 so far exhumed. Civilians also died
from cold, hunger. Baby spent most of life in basement. Survived on
honey, cheese, mother`s milk. Illegal prison in another town, Kharkiv
region. R war crimes everywhere. At least 389 U chilldren killed, 756
injured during war. Putin could withdraw troops with one phone call.
Far from reality.

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_18_09_22.mp3
For Sept 18, YL with heavy accent, including: 59 bodies exhumed at
Izium, civilian and military, evidence of torture. Will take at least
two weeks. hashtag: #iziummassacre. Someone was ``electrocuted`` for
40 minutes, but apparently survived. R doing what Nazis did. Electric
torture tools found in railway station. Defining genocide. R trying to
destroy U identity. Major artist killed, was volunteer. Bit of a song.
Neighboring countries say no land should be ceded. WaPo says EU
funding to Hungary should be suspended (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2156 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St.
Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio:
JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees, Dear
Glenn:
World of Radio, monitoring and confirming the latest for #2155, #2156,
9955 kHz, listen creek fm/stream internet.

9/11, 21 years ago, Sunday, Sep 11, 2022. Friday evening, barbecue
attended and restaurant Sunday evening, 60th Anniversary at CIDX
gathering in Sherwood Park and Lamont, Sep 16-18, 2022. I had a
spectacular time despite only nine or ten at the most showing up,
still great time seeing memory lane slide show, even seeing how much
hair I had way back when. Interviews were recorded in the
International Radio Report recent show, Richard. WRMI:

[2155:] 5850, QSB fading, jamming [??], moderate static, 0133, 0151
(55333-4), 0159, Sep 9 UTC 2022 [Fri]
9395, QRN, QSB fading, 0031, 0043, 0059 (45343), Sep 13 UTC [Tue]
5850, 1032 (55434), Sep 14 UTC 2022 [Wed]
9395, QSB fading, shockwave [??], 0030, 0043, 0058, 0059, Sep 15 [Thu]
[2156:] 5850, moderate static and jamming [??], 0130, 0137, 0144
(55344-3), 0159, Sep 16 UTC 2022 [Fri] (Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Correcting this item which I misplaced onto 6160- instead of 5130-:
Also confirmed UT Saturday September 17 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130 minus 25 Hz into Maryland SDR = 5129.975, S9+10.

Confirmed Sunday September 18 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz,
Villa Estense, Italy, S9+10/15 into nearby Noale SDR, atop
understation of talk and music making a medium SAH. Is Romania still
on? If not, that leaves Iran or Tanzania, even later into their
nights. OR among the total 1360 kW from Chinas. Not on 918, where it
should have been, with no QRM. Trace of algo talk on LW 207, probably
not me, Iceland or mix? 2037 recheck, familiar theme and `Counterspin`
starting, a show which deserves explicit regular scheduling.

WOR 2156 also confirmed UT Monday September 19 at 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S9/+15 into Boca Ratón SDR I already have running for HWN. I would
expect it to be in the awkward skip zone from most Okeechobees.

Also confirmed UT Monday September 19 from 0304 since JL ran over
again, S9 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 - 63 Hz = 6159.937 into Maryland
SDR.

Also confirmed UT Tuesday September 20 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+20
into Maryland SDR, right after Jeff White intervention, ``Right now
the world is in turmoil...`` Is that the Tecsun SW radio ad? Next:

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 Radio webcast [5035/3210 USB suspended]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

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. 9330.1v, Monday Sept 19 at 1441 check, WLCR/WBCQ is gone
again after a Sunday morning revival (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.9v, Monday Sept 19 at 2338, S9+15, WBCQ, Greek? and/or
similar music, certainly no longer `Camp Constitution Radio` far-right
politix; fill? Or UBMP? It still shows as 23-24 UT tho it would be a
neat trick to run that and CCR at same time 2330-2400 as still on the
never-up-to-date program schedule, with all EDT conversion times
mislabeled as EST. Did not check at 2300, since last week, the real
semi-UBMP repeat had been replaced by a new gospel huxter (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540.24 approx., Sept 20 at 0000 UT, het to 1540 stations.
Bet it`s WKVQ, Eatonton, Georgia, still/again way off frequency as I
was often hearing it last year, even all-night; and just reported
again by several, ranging 1540.241 to .247:
https://groups.io/g/mwoffsets/topic/93742683#673
Here it seems to have gone off shortly after tune-in. FCC AM Query is
erroring out, but looks as if official sunset in September should be
2345 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. Re RV registered 2485, thus possible harmonix, Ron Howard
replies: ``Hi Glenn - Regularly I do check 2485, as I have heard RV
there in the past, but certainly not heard recently. 2020 audio is at
https://app.box.com/s/9cn4yyt71n1meom6e6ivfha8olqh7626
Ron (California)`` 1015-1018+ UT March 5, vs HNL.

7890, 7932, still unheard Sept 19 circa 0635, nor 8620 at 0705 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7879.577v, Sept 19 at 0634 open carrier, maybe Vanuatu I
am looking for, not on ex-7890? No, soon goes into utebeeps, switch to
7880.42 or so (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0113 UT September 20
