** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Feb 25 at 2016, tune-in via
Argentine remote, just in time to hear CW ID and voice SS late sign/on
of LRA36, another test broadcast until 18h Arg. i.e. only half a
sesquihour to 21z; 2017 live opening with contact info. Later Uniendo
Voces program, no mention yet of ham activity from base as LU1ZV.
Maybe will have more in my next report? This remote is already
occupied with all 4 RX on LRA36, S9, so I add to the campers (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 530, Feb 25 at 0742, EZL music so R. Enciclopedia
is back on tonight after absence last night; QRM presumably CHLO
Toronto in unknown language, but intonation sounds sorta Brazilian.
Overnight sked not published (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4810, Ron Howard replies to my log of JBA carrier presumed R.

Radio Logos broadcasts programs in eleven of the 17 languages in the
listening area. Among them: Bora, Junicui, Ticuna, Pastaza, Quechua,
and Achuar.

Radio Logos’ shortwave transmission broadcasts the gospel into the
neighboring department of Loreto - Peru’s largest and most remote

** U S A. (7490v), UT Sat Feb 25 from 0100, WBCQ, a new `AAAWWW` and
right from the start Allan is in a big rant, sounds really mad about
everything, yet all framed as a prayer to his deity. I`ve never heard
him before so upset. Denounces Putin and other authoritarians, but
also denounces Pres. Biden as a ``puppet`` --- that implies there must
be a puppet master, but he never identifies that; not sure I want to
know. Anyhow thinx world would be in a much better situation if T****
were still in power. Angela occasionally chimes in support. I let
myself listen to this diatribe for a semihour before switching to
someone I agree with 100% at 0130 on WRMI 5850. Recheck 0150 now
skimming a new Free Radio Weekly, which arrived in time since this is
an off-week for alternating editor Turnick. Mostly he just names
pirate and frequency without much further detail such as time or
reporter, so not much use to casual listener, and besides, pirates are
notoriously frequency-flexible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1170, special MW DX test scheduled from WDFB, a 1 kW
direxional daytimer in Junxion City near Danville KY for Sat Feb 25 at
0501-0701 UT. This will be tough to OK with KTSB Tulsa 50 kW directly
in the way, unnullable. First I check near remotes to confirm whether
it`s really on the air. Closest at Lexington KY gets nothing on 1170!
Knoxville TN: W8BUG which I once found useful, gets it neither, but
another in K-town, KB5AG, succeeds, so I stay on it for a while. At
0510, continuous tone, then sweeps upward, a sure sign of a DX test
even without an ID.

Unfortunately we have to listen to an 1170 gospel huxter at same time,
suspected Brother Scare on WWVA OH. TOMBS sked shows at 11 pm-midnight
only, 04-05 UT. WWVA site, can`t find any full program sked: they must
be ashamed of anything but a few major talkshows hilited. At first
sounds much like BS but can`t make a match to 7570 even considering
way out of synch. At 0514 I first hear definite Morse code IDs as VVV
VVV VVV DE WDFB - repeated maybe 5 times. As a Christian station,
preaching was planned to be mixed with the test tones etc.; if so, I
never heard any nor vocal IDs, maybe indistinguishable from the QRM.

1170 has two major 50 kW occupants, WWVA Wheeling WV with site in OH;
and KTSB Tulsa OK. Each of them protects the other at night, leaving a
mid-continent gap occupied by many minor stations from MN to FL,
mostly daytimers, or if at night, low power and direxional. At 0518 I
try direct on my E/W longwire and R75. KTSB is not the powerhouse you
would expect for 50 kW direxional west; less than 200 km away, maybe
too close for much skywave, and there is QRM from others. At 0518 I
first try for WDFB direct: maybe, a 1 kHz tone, but nothing
recognizable as Morse code or sweeps which would have clinched it even
without a callsign ID. One more try direct at 0630-0635: at first I
think I hear a tone vs stupid sports talk on The Blitz. Not enough to
be definite and of course I will not seek a QSL nor would I want one.

Everything else in this report is via the Knoxville remote: 0528 code
and sweeps up; 0531 tone; 0532 VVV ID as above. 0533 sweeps up; 0534
step tones upward, then sweeps up; 0540 fast Morse code, again 0551.
0611 sweeps up; 0612 phone-off-hook noise; 0613 fast Morse, VVV IDs
again; 0620 fast Morse as I turn off the computer. Tnx for the test,
anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
