Logs
** CUBA. 6165, UT Thu Dec 22 at 0730, RHC English with `Ed Newman`
presenting Mailbag, S9/+10 undermodulated. Only RHC frequency still
on. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. From the WOR iog UT Dec 22 starting at 0131, from me:

``[WOR] XEPPM seems back --- While scanning for Pres. Zelenskyy`s
speech on SW, I ran across some S7/S9 music on 6185 about 0047 - and
it`s off/frequency minus like XEPPM used to be, about 6184.97. And
nothing else scheduled. It was still missing when checked last night.
Glenn`` --- replies:

At 0156: ``Yep - I'm not hearing any readable audio yet, but there's
definitely a signal there for the first time in weeks. It's a solstice
miracle! Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens, Washington``

``Hearing music on 6185 during a 0430-0440 check UT December 22. No
announcements, but consistent with XEPPM programming. Signal weaker
than typical XEPPM reception at my Houston QTH. Has been off the past
three weeks. More checks needed! Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas``

At 0532: ``I was disheartened last night when checking for XEPPM,
thought maybe they quit SW by this time. YES, tonight we are hearing a
woman presenter here, a lot of talk about Christmas, some music and
they are back. (Of course, Mexican Spanish). 73 - Rick in Arizona``
Barton

gh` further chex: at 0338, undermodulated Spanish S7/9+10. 0728, no
signal, so not yet all-night or until 1000v* as before.

``Dec 22 - Checking 6185, at 0735 UT, found no one there. Ron
(Calif.)`` Howard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2170)

** UKRAINE [non]. From the WOR iog UT Dec 22, starting with me at
0035:

``[WOR] Pres. Z. about to address Congress --- At 0030 UT Thu,
coverage of Pres. Zelenskyy`s address to US Congress is about to
start, and multiple TV networks are on it, like CSPAN1, MSNBC, PBS,
CNN - for those only listening to SW, where what do you bet, not a
single US SW station will find it worth airing. Glenn``

``I am pleased to report Radio Martí appears to be carrying the speech
with simultaneous translation in Spanish. Can hear it on 7435 and 9565
kHz at the moment (0048 UTC) 73 Ricky Leong, Calgary, Alberta,
Canada``

``No point in trying to hear VOA English anywhere at this hour. No
active US private SW frequencies on it.

At 0050-0055 I did a quick MW scan during his speech, and it was
absolutely nowhere. Stations will not deviate from their talk, sports
or whatever commercial format. If we had any public radio stations
audible on MW, maybe there? Even less point in checking FM, except
KOSU with NPR -- No, not even there. Glenn``

Pundits later compared this to Winston Churchill in Dec 1941 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2170)

** U S A. 5085, Dec 22 at 0330 check, no signal yet from WTWW, tho
WRMI Legends has skidaddled back to 4980.

At 0541 via George McClintock: ``George is authorized usage of 5085
and 9475 kHz for WTWW. Regards, Tom Lucey`` of FCC.

``George, That`s a rather informal note -- Good; from when? Did not
hear any 5085 tonight. Glenn``

``His full e-mail is as good as a license to broadcast. George
McClintock 12-22-2022``.

WTWW back on 5085, Dec 22 at 2355, as George calls me to check on the
spurs he`s working to eliminate: still there now and a bit stronger
than last time, 5072.1 & 5097.9; SFA PPPP programming and stays on
past 0206 check. He does not have programming arranged yet for daytime
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2170)

** U S A. 4980, Dec 22 at 0732, WRMI with TOMBS // 5010 et al. 4980
just resumed with Legends at 23-05 but now running it longer. Yet not
as such on the skedgrid updated Dec 21. Other changes: WRMI-1 on 7730
to 160 degrees but BLANK 24h. WRMI-2 ALSO on 7730, 44 degrees to
Europe, with wide variety of Systems and shows 24h! It now matches
exactly what`s shown for WRMI-9 on 15770, also 44 degrees, 24 hours
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2170)

** U S A. 9329.761, Dec 22 at 0739, WBCQ/WLCR in English at S9/+10,
way off-frequency the lowest yet.

The winds here are howling, 40 mph gusts forecast, as intermittent
noise appears on MW & SW, probably rattling power lines; and we are
headed for extreme windchills like -24 F, and lows circa zero F, Thu &
Fri.

9329.838 is where Maine SDR finds it at 1917 Dec 22. Despite proximity
ought to be in skip zone, but S9/+15 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2170)

** U S A. 13845 & 15825, Dec 22 at 1617, NO signals from these WWCRs.
K index at 15 was only 3. Must be OFF or there would at least be JBA
carriers. 12160 is still inbooming S9+30 and the other WWCR 9980 is
also silent as it has been most days lately. Survey of other USignals
finds normal reception from WRMIs, 13820 R. Martí, 15755 WINB DRM,
even JBA 15555 USB WJHR. At 1652 I check Maine SDR for WWCR and it too
is hearing nothing but 12160. At 1916, however, all 4 WWCRs are on and
into Maine SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Dec 22 at 0734, R. Vanuatu still here and VP. Ron
Howard also reports it 0610-0731 with severe weather warning, and news
about Fiji leaning more toward ANZUS rather than China (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0212 UT December 23
