** CUBA. 11760 // 15140, Sunday January 15 at 1603, RHC opening weekly Esperanto, still giving wrong schedule, probably taped years ago: Sun 0800 on 6100 - while all frequencies were off by 0710; 1600 on 11760 - only, despite addition of 15140 years ago; and 2330 on 15730 despite axually heard at 2130 on 13680. They also continue to mis-pronounce some words, unable to divorce themselves from Spanish habits of stress: Ameriko, politiko. 15140 modulation somewhat distorted compared to 11760. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Some Comsymps take me to task for being so hard on RHC: since Cuba jams my program and countless others, and always airs an anti-American slant, it deserves no respect (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 15665, Jan 15 at 1555, S Asian songs are SSOB, S9/+10 but chopped off the air at 1558*, how rude! It`s AWR in MAL, which here means Malayalam, not Malgache or Malay, scheduled at 1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13563.5, Jan 15 at 1559, PCO, HIFER beacon from Pine, ColOrado is JBA and unusually, so is 13565, K6FRC, Patterson, California. Still no trace of all the others listed in the 13550-13570 ISM band at https://www.lwca.net/sitepage/part15/index.htm (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2173 monitoring: confirmed starting at 2108 Saturday January 14 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, steady S9+20 into nearby MO SDR, the nominal 2030; shortly after last report dispatched. Delayed by `QSO Today` podcast of American-accented Israeli ham interviewing South Australian-accented ham and winegrower until 2108. Also confirmed Saturday January 14 at 2230 new time on WRMIs: 5850, S9+20/25; 15770 S9+15/25 both direct. At this early hour despite 5850 thisaway and 15770 thataway off the side, better less noisy reception on 15770. As usual no signal on imaginary 7730 which WRMI keeps showing on schedules anyway. Also confirmed UT Sunday January 15 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10, still starting with a ~10 second noise blast overriding my opening; also 3 more brief blasts at 0033. At 0054 much better signal, VG S7/9+10 into Maurice LA SDR. Also confirmed starting at 0458 UT Sunday January 15 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, VG groundwave S9+20 into nearby SDR. Great variability in start time depends on greatly variable lengths of preceding ham shows. This week I noted the Houston AMSAT net going to ARRL news at 0449.

By 0709 check, 9455 is S9/+10 but no spurs audible. Also, right after `Encore` finishes 5850 at 0200, another repeat of KBC `Giant Jukebox` on that frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15770, Sun Jan 15 at 1935 checking WRMI during `Music and Medicine`, introducing a Nocturne by Chaikofsky. Would like to listen more to this show but at same hour as `Pipedreams` I always get on $ tereo webcast of WYSU HD2, at this time playing `Nimrod` from Elgar`s `Enigma Variations`. Is M&M at any other time? OMG, now at 10-11 UT Wednesday on 5850, displacing a longtime WOR airing at 1030! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 11835, Jan 15 at 0701, JBA music from R.
