Logs
** CUBA. 13700, Oct 10 at 1533, JBA carrier, maybe Bauta left exciter
on? Usually off by 1500. Nothing else listed on 13700 except CNR13 in
Uyghur from Lingshi 725 site until 1400 - but I never notice any QRM
to RHC. Meanwhile 11760 is S9/+10 with sufficient modulation, 15140
S7/S8 JBM. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 10 at 2147, no signal, no loss, of R. Cairo
into UTwente in English. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 10 at 0630, no signal from VON direct; Oct 10
at 1718 & 1744, no signal into Canary SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN [and non]. 17855, Mon Oct 10 at 2200, token English from REE,
S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, but better S7/9+10 on 11940 for S America;
15520 ME S5/S7; 11670 Af also S5/S7. After news, Justin will interview
someone about a music foundation; and intro a new series until Nov,
foreign movie reviews - but heard neither as I`m back to BBC Proms on
Sounds before they are all supposed to expire at 2259 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 10 at 2158, VOT English is on today with IS,
2200 usual opening, somewhat undermodulated, S9+55 into UTwente; but
it`s the final hour for BBC Proms on Sounds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE. I am now about a week behind in copying info from
`Ukraine: Security Issue`, and have decided not to resume. It is
rather depressing, and of course we are constantly bombarded by news
about the war otherwise. There was a rather lukewarm response to my
inquiry whether my reports were useful: from only three people. Best
approach if you are interested, is to devote no more than 9 minutes a
day to these yourself, via:
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/ua_security_issue
Maybe WRMI will eventually resume SWing them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2159 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 9 from 2000:35 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9/+15
into nearby Noale SDR, atop medium SAH and musiCCI; following DJ show
for IRRS ``south of the Alps``, 2000 IRRS promo.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 10 at 0030 on WRMI 5950, S8/9+10 into
Maryland SDR; 7780 still not restored.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 10 at 0300 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160
minus 64 Hz = 6159.936, S7/S8 into Maryland SDR. Next:

** U S A. WRMI: Hurricane Restoration Update: [FB, c. 16 UT Oct 10]
``We have hit a snag in our transmission line repair effort. The
hydraulic system on our truck that lifts the telephone poles up has
stopped working, so our facility manager Pat (who is also a good
mechanic) is repairing that now. When that is finished, we will
continue with the repair of the antenna transmission lines. Rain is
also forecast, so we're running against time.``

``Llily Zichi : If it CAN be fixed, I’m confident Pat can do it.
Unfortunately, that truck is getting old. Maybe that’s a good thing
though. Old stuff CAN be fixed. Look at all the 1950s Detroit iron
running around the streets of Havana! The combo of old tech and
diligent mechanics can’t be beat! 😁``

Subject: WRMI 7730 kHz on air

Ladies and Gentlemen: Today at 1700 UTC we were able to get 7730 kHz
back on the air. It will be on 24 hours per day until further notice.
It is on low power at this point; we can't operate it at high power
yet. But at least it's back on the air.

Meantime, the hydraulic lift on our line truck has malfunctioned and
we have to get that repaired before we can continue the repair of the
transmission lines. We are working on that as I write this. Jeff
White, General Manager`` (direct, via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

7730, Oct 10 at 1926, JBA carrier into Athens GA SDR. Had been on a 44
degree antenna, unreparable, so what azimuth now? (gh)

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 10 at 0630, RV with music, S6/S8. Notably the
OSOB = only broadcast signal on band - if one define 41 m as 7200-7300
only.

11835, Oct 10 at 0701, talk in presumed Bislama, S8/9+10, having just
switched to 3945 in order to occupy this clear 3rd harmonic spot; zzz,
7890 = X2 not checked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. 15565, Oct 10 at 1538, Afro/Asian? talk, S7/S9 so one of
better signals on band. Keyword ``Francesco`` so it`s an
Italian-influenced language, i.e. Ethiopian. Yes: 1530-1600 is VR in
Amharic, direct from SMG site putting more signal than it should, off
the back; rather than long-path, I think; no echo (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
