** CUBA. 6060, Oct 28 at 0605, JBA carrier: hard to believe it`s RHC,
but nothing else listed at this hour, except in Aoki: SRDA Curitiba,
Brasil. Is it active? Not in EiBi or latest DSWCI DBS as of last
April. Not in WRTH 2022, 2021, either. Same question I raised on July
9, 2021.
6165, Oct 28 at 0605, only RHC left, in English, S9+10/20 but
undermodulated. No Cuba or other broadcasters above 5000 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 28 at 0607, VON is on at S9/+10 but JBM. At
1742, 1826, no signal into Canary SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Friday October 28 at 2200, token English from REE,
sufficient on NAm frequency, S9+20/30 into Virginia SDR. Feature after
news will be part 2 of interview about Salem witchcraft, plus a
Lebanon/Israel agreement, and another spooky movie review. 2206
witchcraft starts but doesn`t really interest me. 2225 the Leb/Isr is
about maritime border agreement for offshore gas exploration, brokered
by US, i.e. each signed with US, not having to deal directly with each
other. 2227.5 final #10 Hallowe`en movie review, did not get Spanish
title, as signal is fading down. 2316 recheck, nothin` but noise on
17855, but SAm`s 11940 is still S9+5/10 into VA; 15520 & 11670 would
have closed after 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, W OR) ** TURKEY. From HFCC B22, VOT TRT in English, as expected changes, 1
real UT hour later from Oct 30:
1330 12035 Eu, but NAm beyond
1730 9660 C&SAs
1930 6050 Eu
2130 9610 SEAs, Pac
2300 5960 NAm
0400 6125 NAm, 7285 ME
Not including the inevitable errors, like 5960 on past 0000 in German
(Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 2162) ** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 28 at 2200 no signal yet into UTwente from
VOT English; must have come on way late but going S9+25/45 at 2230
after I retune from Spain --- but it`s not English, rather Turkish.
2235 machine gun fire, declamations, like a military coup?? Also has
some music background, 2238 martial songs; 2240 more talk and machine
gun fire. At 2243 I notify the WOR iog to tune this in quick! But no
replies. Then mostly songs, no English, cut off at 2255.5 which would
be nominal for end of broadcast. Probably the sloppyrators brought up
the wrong program feed, like a dramatic movie soundtrack. Something`s
very erroneous at Emirler and/or awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 6m DX MAP commonly shows Es MUFs to 70+ MHz, hardly ever
above 88; but that`s plenty for 28 MHz hambeacons to show. I only have
time to copy a few, among others also too close to each other less
than 1 kHz apart, Oct 28 at 2020-2027 UT, first with listings from

``My 10 Meter Propogation Beacon at Rose Lake transmits on 28.2165 MHz
at 5 watts. It's pretty much always on with a couple of deep cycle
batteries for power. The transmitter is an old Realistic HTX-100. The
antenna is an A-99 vertical. The keyer is an ID-O-Matic by N0XAS. The
receiver in the HTX-100 smoked, literally, years ago but the
transmitter just keeps on going. I have a small fan in back of the
radio to keep things a little cool. For me part of the fun of having
the beacon is playing with antennas. So far it's had a loop, dipole,
and verticals 8', 17', 31' and 120' long.``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2162 monitoring: not confirmed UT
Fri Oct 28 at 0330 on 7780 still not restored, nor 9455. Confirmed Friday October 28 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, VP S7/S9 direct, and
off after 1500. Also confirmed Friday October 28 from 1815.3 on IRRS via Bulgaria 7290
and AM Italia 1323. Into UTwente, S9+5, nothing audible on X2 = 14580.
Into nearby Noale SDR, 1323 with heavy CCI from Romania`s minority
German service: e.g. 1823 WOR is atop, 1828 about equal, 1831 WOR
abottom, 1843 WOR JBA way under. Monitoring same earlier and later: 1323 from 1756 tune-in classical
music from Rom way atop; nothing ever on 918 or 207 kHz. 1801 IRRS
``sign-on`` by when 7290 is also on so I mainly listen there: Feature
Story News & Spotlite; 1806 song fill; 1812 open `Counterspin` with
Jennine Jaxon [sps?], one current news item being explosions on
pipeline off Poland: that`s really olds, happened on Sept 26. 1815
chop off for IRRS ID and then WOR. After: 1844 music and IRRS ID, 1845 more music; 1847 open `Shortwave
Report` with Dan Roberts in CA; same old stations recorded this week:
DW, F24, RHC, NHKWR. DW is about Truss resigning, which of course is
impossible on SW in English. 1855, France 24 of course does not even
pretend to be a SW station as he continues pulling off webcasts, *not*
off SW. He does admit to webcast alternatives. Cannot provide any SW
frequencies for first two, because there aren`t any. 1857* Bulgaria
cuts 7290 off as usual before programend. Try to listen to rest on
1323 but buried by music from Romania, until 1900 prolonged tone and
off; audiblizing pretending ``IRRS SW signing-off`` and Verdi theme,
as less than half of so-called SW Report has been aired at all; 1903
FSN again. Also confirmed Friday October 28 at 2038 the 2030 on AM Italia, 1323,
S9+10/17 well over music understation and SAH presumed Smooth Radio. Next:

Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330+, Oct 28 at 1514, WBCQ/WLCR is off again. At 1420 Oct
28: ``Hi Glenn, Yes, we are continuing to do daytime maintenance work
on our 8 million dollar Superstation antenna, The Ampegon model RCA
4-4. The work will finish by the end of November. This will enable us
to concentrate a full 20 million watts ERP of free speech shortwave
radio power, in any desired direction. Elon is freeing Twitter: WBCQ
will continue to keep freeing the shortwaves. Thanks, Allan & Angela
Weiner, Owners, WBCQ Radio`` Does that mean it has not been able to rotate as registered? Have

monitoring; starts right off with anti-government talk. Must vote out
all Democrats. Gotta keep fossil fuels, very slowly wean off them.
Laments cost of diesel fuel et al. to keep warm in Maine winters. I also check Maryland remote how the SW frequencies are going: 5130
minus 9 Hz; 6160 minus 63 Hz; 7490 minus 66 Hz; 3265 off; 9330 WLCR
minus 25 Hz. All these are varying 1 or 2 Hz up and down. 0030 refers to gh and sending me the above message. Accuses me of
saying stuff without verification, but still loves me. Tower work has
been going on for 2.5 months; antenna was not 100% complete so they
are working on final touches. Ultimately will be able to beam ERP of
20 megawatts anywhere with 500 kW transmitter. 0041 accuses Moonbats
of ``killing our children``, by uncertainty about gender. 0044 says
trimulcasting on 7, 6 and 5, on 28 of Oct YOOLF 2022. 0047 denounces
NPR = ``National Socialist Public Radio``. Radio World story from Sept
about decline of public radio, ``constagflation`. Usual prayerful
wrapup ending late at 0101, JIP Hal Turner, too late to tell whether
he still claim to be on 540 KYAH Utah, which was 13 watts at night;
did that allude to Yahweh? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 12050, Oct 28 at 1515, S9/+10 of dead air from WEWN. This
keeps happening; is no one paying attention at Irondale or Vandiver?
The ghost of M. Angelica might as well QRT the remnant Spanish service

mixing with talkers probably KGYN & WPHT. Can`t find any 1210 listed
with classical: can`t imagine a commercial station in US or Canada,
nor can NRC AM Log. IRCA Mexican log shows max 3 stations, not. Cuba?
Two stations in WRTH not on CMBF network. Central America? Guatemala
has a religious one. Nothing else in CAm, Caribbean or S America
with an overtly cultural or classical name, but exact formats
difficult to divine. Ideas? Possibly something completely different
defaulting to such fill during loss of network signal; or an equipment
test. This makes a SAH of 164/minute against some other = 2.7 Hz.
MWOffsets shows KUBR San Juan TX in the RGV on 1210.0027! But it`s
Spanish Christian. No program sked found on website (Glenn Hauser, OK,
