** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, UT Tue Dec 13 at 0200, RAE ATTW in English,
VG via WRMI, show dated Wed Dec 7! Preview not mentioning any `DX
Actuality` on this one. System G/ray skedgrid shows RAE English at
0200 UT Fri & Tue -- other RAEs not always at this time otherdays. I
guess RAE are still producing only one new semihour per week in
English? Several other times for it shown on convoluted skedgrid:
0200 Tue & Fri 9395
0200 Thu 5800
0930 Wed & Sat 9455
1100 Thu 15770
1130 Fri 15770
2330 Wed 7570
If anyone confirm or deconfirm any of those, do let us know (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. 750 kHz, Dec 13 at 0741 UT, Spanish music during
WSB absence, tnx to tip from Les Rayburn of the CPC, to be 0500-0930
both tonight and Dec 14. Not sure whence, but by 0744 some hard rock
music dominates instead: I bet it`s CKJH. Yes, 0746: ``wherever you
go, you can find us, beachradiosk.ca`` -- always good for a chuckle,
their beach-branding far from any seacoast at Melfort, Saskatchewan.
25 kW day and night, and what do you bet they are ND rather than
aiming NNE with a notch toward WSB? Now, if only I could DX the Okie
on 750 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Dec 13 at 0128, Spanish, presumed R. Rebelde is back on
with strong signal here, but no harmonic on 10050. 5025 activity bad
news for Quillabambans and Honiarans and those who would hear them.

10080, Dec 13 at 0128, RHC harmonic is on with music, not // 6000
English nor 11760 Spanish. 0131, RHC theme and French which is
supposed to be on 5040, but a JBA carrier there, as transmitter
mistuned to X2.

This is the situation at later chex 0727-0730: 10080 with RHC music
S9/+10, but 5040 a JBA carrier only. 10080 with RHC news in Spanish at
0730. No 10050 now, but 5025 with Rebelde ID at S9+20.

6000, Dec 13 at 0728, dead air at S9+20/30 and 6100 dead air at
S9+10/20. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Dec 13 at 0726, S7/S8 of dead air, no doubt the most
silent of RHC transmitters supposed to be off long before now. Proving
propagation from Cuba at this hour is the pulse jamming against
nothing, neighborly on 11860; but not 11930 this time. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Dec 13 at 2118, R. Cairo S9+40/45 into UTwente,
huge humbuzz and whine with traces of extremely distorted talk
modulation in presumed English. Something`s always egregious in Egypt.
Let`s hear it for Pres. Sisi! Made it onto air today (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Dec 13 at 0738, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati;
only other one on 1215, see UNIDENTIFIED (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Dec 13 at 1642 UT check, K17JN-D, Enid, is still,
no surprise, off the air. I would be surprised if K17JN-D have any
significant viewership besides me - tho never for the gospel-huxter
program content! It gets absolutely no publicity in Enid: no newspaper
listings, not on cable [tho 3ABN by satellite is somewhere on a high
tier], and most Enidians unaware of it, or if they are, don`t know
it`s really here. Only way to run across it is making a DTV set scan
for OTA channels --- when it`s not AWOL (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.002, Dec 13 at 2300, VOT VG S9+35/45 into
UTwente with timesignal, English sign-on with jumbled sked, news; 2309
Review of the Tuerkiyish Press, by now with CCCCCCI making a medium
SAH. VOT is somewhat undermodulated but sufficient on very strong
signal and no hum or other extraneous self-imposed noises. 2315
`Weekly Commentary` by a guest prof, but I give up trying to
understand it vs the reader`s heavy accent: something about Xi and
China. 2352 sign-off and 2353 IS stays on a while for a change. 2356
starts interspersing IDs in GERMAN twicemal per minute. 2358* chops
off totally uncovering the ChiCom at only S9/+5, also on 5960.002 but
still with that medium SAH which must be caused by some other carrier
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [and non]. On Mon, Dec 12, 2022 at 04:44 PM, Glenn Hauser

Volodya Salmaniw replies on the WOR iog: ``When I checked 1386 last
week [via Lithuania via remote SDR], RUI continued in English for some
25 minutes before switching back to Ukrainian. I do see that the RUI
link is active with current programming. Maybe some sense of returning
to a new normalcy? Digging a bit deeper, they are there. The cover
page wasn’t updated. Here’s a link for December 11th:

Richard Langley, NB: ``That page gets updated sporadicly. But, as Walt
said, you can find the audio file on the daily program pages on those
days that the English version of "Ukraine: Security Issue" has been
aired. For example,

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/schedule/period-items.html?channelID=4&date=2022-12-11
"Ukraine: Global" also aired on that day following "Ukraine: Security
Issue." You can select a different day using the calendar to the right
on the page -- Richard Langley`` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2168 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday
December 13 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S8/9+10 direct; following Jeff`s
Tecsun commercial attempt after ID, ``The world is in turmoil...`` for
which I, gh, take no responsibility.

NOT confirmed Tuesday Dec 13 at 2330 on WRMI 9955 - now replaced per
sked at 23-24, `Living by the Sword`, politico-religio about leftists
in Mexico, Peru. That leaves us with zero emissions on 9955, the
remaining two on sked being imaginary. Next, I hope:

0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 5950, UT Tue Dec 13 at 0134, WRMI with strange show about
astrology, Geminids MS peak, mispronounced Geminides. At first I
thought it was a hamish subshow on Legends, but not // 9455 during
this hour. Time references make this seem live. 0142 says is now also
on WBCQ, but which? Not 7490- but there he is on 6160-, `Your UFO
Show`.

Here it is on WRMI Programming page in a variety of fonts, illustrated
logo a hand-drawn flying saucer with alien pilot, [sic]:

So is he on the WBCQ schedule yet? Of course not:
http://wbcq.com/schedule/index.php?fn=sked&freq=6160
Shows 6160 not on air before 0200 except UT Mon, Sat and Sun, which
means there would be a conflict with AAAWWW on UT Sat. BTW, this fails
to show any TOMBS at all on 6160-, which runs all-night, until when?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 9330v, Dec 13 at 0731, NO WBCQ/WLCR, and no Cuban
Spies either. What a waste of spectrum. O -- when they are on, still a
waste! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1550, Dec 13 at 1623 UT, rock music // and synchro with 1130
KLEY Wellington KS. Therefore its long-silent sibling station KKLE
Winfield KS is really on the air. Furthermore, 1550 loops correctly
NNE/SSW, but it has a fast SAH from an Okie. On Nov 18 in the
nightmiddle 0803, when 1130 is supposed to run ONE WATT, but always
with 250 W day power, I heard a joint ID for both of them among
several others including FM translators. All have had
financial/ownership problems; tho run from the same address in
Wellington, 1550 originally was separate news/talk format (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1215 kHz, Dec 13 at 0737 in JBA 9/kHz split carrier
scan, surprised to hit one here, only one besides 846 and vs lightning
storms just west of here. Much earlier in evening, 1215 would
obviously be Absolute Radio, UK, six synchros totalling 366 kW; only
other TA possibilities this late would be three X 15 kW COPEs in
Spain, if still on air. But e.g. London sunrise today is not until
0758, almost as late as it can be. How about TP? Only one 2 kW from
NZ, and nothing on islands closer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
