** CHINA [and non]. 9455, Mon Dec 26 at 1651, S9/+10 Chinese dominant,
vs another Chinese, i.e. CNR1 jamming vs RFA SAIPAN; heavy fast SAH
and at least one more signal buried with music, WRMI TOMBS, sounds the
same as 9395 and WWCR 9980. I`ve always been amazed that FCC is fine
with WRMI vs jammed USAGM on 9455, per Aoki sked: MWF 16-17 & daily
19-21 Saipan, 21-22 Kuwait. However, Dec 26 at 1921 check, WRMI is
alone on 9455; and 9395 is OFF (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Dec 26 at 0704, only Cuban channel still on but S8/9+10
of dead air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140 & 11760, Dec 26 at 1646, the only two RHC frequencies
supposed to run past 1600 are absent. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Dec 26 at 0657, VON is S9+10/20 but JBM - maybe
hearing some drumming IS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 6950, Dec 26 at 1655, AM signal cutting on and off with
sports talk - must be fifth harmonic of local 1390 KCRC. Yes, it is
//. Was tuning pirate band just in case on a holiday. Have not had any
problem with KCRC harmonix in years beyond 2780 = X2 always a weak
distorted. Same sound now on 4170 = X3, nothing on 5560 = X4.
Something`s loose at KCRC, and it`s not especially windy now.

Another check at 1943: 6950 & 4170 still like before; nothing on 5560
or 8340, the X4 and X6, but a weak blob on 9730 = X7. Harmonic
panoplies tend to favor all-odd or all-even ones (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 25 at 2300, VOT in English, VG signal into
Maryland SDR but undermodulated; likewise at 2348 check direct.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2170 monitoring: Also confirmed
Sunday December 25 at 2100 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only,
S9+10/20 into nearby Noale SDR; again with ripple SAH from another
carrier, Romania? but no modulated QRM; that`s gone before the end at
2129. Following until 2100 some anonymous music show from Wales
produced for IRRS.

Also confirmed UT Monday December 26 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8 but
noisy. However does not start with self-imposed overriding noise
burst. Hope that has been repaired for good.

Also confirmed UT Monday December 26 from 0402.7 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160
minus 62 Hz = 6159.938 into Missouri SDR, S9+5/15, after JL running
late and ``11-L Radio signing off``. Next:

0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
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. 7490v, Sun Dec 25 at 2310, WBCQ in `UBMP` featuring some
naughty Xmas tunes. I try to listen to WBCQ webcast: it`s running but
just barely modulated! Not enough to hear with all my volumes at max.
Likewise for `Le Show` at 0000 Dec 26. So forces me to listen on SW,
direct or via remotes, like S9+10/15 into Maryland. Rechecked later,
stream still JBM past 0500, like that for 6+ hours?! Direct reception
was sufficient for `Marion`s Attic` until 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 6160-, Dec 26 at 0703, WBCQ S9 with rock music, certainly
not usual TOMBS after-hours of Area 51 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330-, Dec 26 at 0707, WBCQ-6 SuperStition off the air, and
no Cuban spy either on Monday. Still no WLCR at 1717. What`s the
problem now? Surely not still too windy. Closest NWS info to
Monticello is Houlton AP where it`s west at 14 gusting to 24 mph
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4980, Dec 26 at 0433, WRMI S9+25/30 with news about Ukraine
by computer voice which mispronounces some words; 0435 outro as from
Alexander on WRMI Legends. Items seem current rather than legendary
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) WRMI vs USAGM and jamming: see CHINA [and
non]

** VANUATU. 7260, Dec 26 at 0658, JBA carrier from R Vanuatu; while
Ron Howard says ``non-stop listening 0640-0840 UT, Dec 26. Outstanding
reception the whole time; nicely readable; probably my best ever
reception. My audio posted at bit.ly/3YQ7SqE --- Ron California``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1017 kHz, Dec 26 at 0712 UT, JBA carrier I would like to
think be TONGA already post-sunset, but no lower 9/kHz splits, not
even 846 Kiritimati which could be off. At 0715, unusually detect a
few more at topend, 1503, 1539, 1584, unlikely Pacificans. Only TA
country all four have in common is Spain, 5 or 10 kW synchros of RNE5
or SER. But then there is Spain on most frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5051.0, Dec 26 at 0659, open carrier of S8/S9 at this
strange spot, while NO US or Cuban signals above 5000, and 4980 WRMI
also absent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
