Logs
** CANADA. 6030, Sept 29 at 0644, comedy in English at S6/S8 tnx to NO
Cuban jamming, CFVP Calgary. Tnx also to Ian, as Cubans would leave
jamming on all night even when Martí is off after 0400 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9565, Sept 29 at 0114, pulse jamming continues against
nothing after OCB is over, despite ``total blackout`` of power in
Cuba. Don`t you believe it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. From 60 to 22m band, Sept 29 at 0122, all known SW
frequencies of RHC, Progreso and Rebelde are OFF due to blackout, but
which however has not silenced all the jammers, nor all the MW
stations per DXer reports. All SW RHC and RR still silent at 0630
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 9490.058V, Sept 29 at 0115, R. República with VG
unjammed signal via RMI via defective ISS FRANCE transmitter never
on-frequency, and wavering slightly, difficultizing measurement; with
seemingly current Hurricane Ian news. 0117 ID and announcing schedule
in Yanqui-imposed EDT: 9-10 pm Mon-Wed; 9-11 pm Thu-Sat; 9-12 mn Sun.
And ALSO on 5800 which is/was really WRMI, I was unaware of: M/W/F 11
pm-mn. Current WRMI skedgrid shows System B in bluegreen, otherwise
mostly into 9955, as Radio República on 5800 at 11 pm-mn but on
Wed/Thu/Fri. Beware! That could draw jamming to a previously free
frequency not only during those three hours but anywhen affecting
other programs! As yet unconfirmed, as WRMI itself is totally off the
air. DOW variations too confusing for the jammers, often left running
after RR is off.

Now the same sked info converted to real UT days and times: 9490:
01-02 UT Tue-Thu; 01-03 UT Fri-Sun; 01-04 UT Mon. 5800: 03-04 UT
Thu-Sat, or Tue/Thu/Sat? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 9735-9740-9745, Sept 29 at 0625, DRM noise at S9+10 not
noticed before. EiBi shows MiniTransAt Sailing at 06-07 from Issoudun
for N Atlantic, but not marked as DRM. It is N = DRM in HFCC for dates
19 July to 30 Sept only, so about to expire, 100 kW at 320 degrees
thisaway for all these CIRAF zones: 04,05,09,17,18,27,36,80. This
would be bad news for Tsiganeshti, RRI in Arabic if it really run past
0630, unrechecked, which I at first thought might be the DRM, on
early. Some of these TransAt DRMs were really only half an hour. By
now I`m listening direct, off computer so can`t try to decode the DRM
marine weather info remotely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Thu Sept 29 at 0656, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati, back on after another silent Wed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 29 at 0633, S7/S9 of dead air direct from VON.
7254.933, Sept 29 at 1730, S7/9+10 of dead air into Canary SDR.
Something always absolutely abject at Abuja (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 5025, Sept 29 at 0058, JBA signal, S5 = noise level,
presumably R. Quillabamba, tnx to absence of Rebelde, which even
before Ian was sporadic. From 0100 marred by uteblaaps at the regular
rate of 24 times per minute (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA. 9996, Sept 29 at 0627, binary clicking JBA, just far enough
from WWV to avoid QRM. No doubt RWM timesignals from Taldom/Moskva
which at certain other times does ID in CW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Sept 29 at 1500, for at least the fifth day in a row,
nothing but dead air from REE to the Mideast! S6/S9 direct. Isn`t
there a meter on the transmitter showing modulation, or not?? Even if
not listening to it. Could the ops at Noblejas be both aurally and
visually impaired; or just mentally (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6993, Sept 29 at 0637, still JBA carrier, presumed WH2XWF
propagation research, not all or any? of their low-power Florida sites
blown off air yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2157 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT Thursday
Sept 29 at 0030 on WRMI 5010 which is off the air. Earlier in the day,
Jeff had hoped to keep that one going. NOT confirmed either, UT Thu at
0130 on WRMI 9395, which has been off the air for some time. Shortly
WRMI would be totally silent, so WOR may be hard to hear for an
unknown period. The UT Friday 0130 first airings on 5850 & 7730 had
already been canceled last week, and no response to our request to
restore them; UT Fri at 0330 on 7780 would be next, but unlikely to be
funxional again already.

No longer facing at 0130 Friday deadline, WOR 2158 may not be ready
until somewhat later. I anyway post the nominal sked including WRMI in
case some of them can resume in the following week. Even if SW off,
with studio power the 9955 webcasts may appear, assuming there is
studio power to accept our uploads. Confirmed connexion tested at 1903
UT Sept 29. Otherwise, our listeners via WRMI are well-advised to seek
another station or listen off the web:

** U S A. Sept 29 at 0030, the only WRMI frequencies still on air are
9955 with gospel huxter, 7730 with Slovakia in English, 5950 with UFO
show, which appears to be a live feed per his comments. By 0120, 9955
is off. Shortly WRMI would go off completely, power outage besides as
yet unknown antenna damage. All are off at 0630. We must check
wrmiradio on FB for the latest, or this direct from Jeff:

``Dear Colleagues and Clients: Last night Hurricane Ian passed through
central Florida. Winds were extremely high, and they caused extensive
damage in our antenna field. The winds are still very strong as I
write this (1330 UTC Thursday), and we have not been able to assess
the extent of the damage yet. Electrical power went out at 0200 UTC
Thursday and is still out. The power company, Florida Power and Light,
cannot begin to work on power restoration until the winds go down to
about 35 miles per hour, and that may not be until later today or
tomorrow. So we are off the air, except for our Internet stream, until
further notice. Thanks for all of your messages and phone calls. We'll
keep you updated. Jeff`` - I wonder if flooding also be a threat
around WRMI as elsewhere like inland Orlando; how far above Lake level
is it, and how close to the shore?

Sept 29 at 1440 check, all OFF: 9395, 9455, 9955, 15770 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15555 USB, Sept 29 at 1501, WJHR unusually audible S6, piano
music joined by hymnsinger. Must be some HF Es boost. Not even a
reduced carrier, so hard to pinpoint reference frequency, but Rodney
Johnson, MN, put it at 15554.88, Sept 18 at 1405, power as only 1 kW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, 7932, 8620, Sept 29 at 0630, still no signals from
RV. We should have let their off-frequencies and harmonics be instead
of bringing them to attention of station (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9992 USB, Sept 29 at 0628, 2-way in language unseems
Spanish; stronger station has ``engine noise``, first noticed aside
9996 RWM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
