** ANTARCTICA. 15476 USB, Sat Mar 25 at 2102, LRA36 is on with music, S4/S5 into Argentine SDR, tnx to tip from Manuel Méndez, Spain who had it direct from *2055. I may not have time to monitor much further detail, but supposed to last six hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11670, March 25 at 0643, RHC in English, S9+10 undermodulated; no other frequencies still on. You never know whether this will show up or not, on 11670 or 11760, modulated or not. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GERMANY [non]. 7230, March 25 at 0629, DW IS, brothers seeking brothers, S7/S9 with QRhaM, lotsa LSB during some contest. If it`s DW, cannot be broadcast direct from Germany. At 0630-0700 it`s via SAO TOME in Hausa, what else (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 17480, March 25 at 1509, S6/S8 two signals beating or Doppler fluttering, presumably Turkish jammer and Dengê Welat. Now nothing on 17460 or 17470 where they might also jump (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9955, March 25 at 1515, this WRMI is OFF, and so is 9455, leaving TOMBS on 9395 only; despite supposed extensions to 1600 Sabbathdays only on 9955, but also 7570, 5850, 7780, 5010, the latters unchecked but would hardly be propagating daytimely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, March 25 at 0023, VOT overrun in German is still going, UTwente check, running the 2-minute multilingual ID filler reel including English. From March 26 or maybe UT March 25 already, this will happen after 2300 on 11785 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 395 MCW kHz, March 25 at 1506 UT, CA, 25-watt ND beacon at Newton/Harvs KS due north of here; and also 407 MCW kHz, HRU, 25-watt NDB at Herington KS. My local noise hump circa 400 kHz is still there but diminished enough for these to be copied with IDs beyond JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2183 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday March 25 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S9+20/30 direct. Axually it started at 0130:15, altho 7780 is the only frequency needing a delayed start to avoid the noise burst. Missed checking UT Sat Mar 25 at 0400 on WBCQ R Angela 5130v; did anyone hear it? Confirmed Saturday March 25 at 1700 UT, on WRN North America webcast - still at winter timing. After the biweek of confusion, from April 1, this should change to 1600, as UK catches up with DST already in effect in NAm. Also all the other WRN airings from March 26. Not confirmed any time between 1930 and 2100 UT Sat Mar 25 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, S9+20 into nearby SDR. Maybe unusually ran much before nominal 1930, or not at all?

Pollard, Raleigh NC, for a generous quarterly check on a US bank marking the Vernal Equinox, to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA, One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 12160, Sat Mar 15 from 1700, WWCR-2 with `The Talking [sic] Machine Show` at earlified time for CDT season, to my surprise, at 1705 host Phil Patton mentions me, tnx for nice comment about his show in DX Listening Digest! You`re welcome; maybe a years-old evergreen repeat altho I have recommended TTMS recently apart from DXLD. Also says show is on two other stations, one of them webcast Geneva Community Radio in NY, 4 pm Saturdays. It`s now known as Global Community Radio, http://globalcommunityradio.blogspot.com/ with WOR at 0100 UT Mondays on GCR1 stream. But I don`t find TTMS on sked at all, nor on GCR2 or GCR3. Lots of great programming amassed, much of it international on GCR1 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330.000, March 25 at 0534, WBCQ-6 SuperStition is finally back on air with World`s Last Chance Radio in English, as first reported by Walt Salmaniw at 0413. But as soon as I tune in, it dumps off air at 0535*-*0536, and again for less than a minute during 0540. Still going next check 1518 when it matches WWV 10000.000 exactly directly. So the Continentals not only got it working again, but exactified the frequency, at least for now - but seems still stuck on 9330, no matter when or whereto. But UTwente is not even getting enough signal to lock onto. By 1907 it`s sporadically locking onto 9329.996+ but inaudible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, March 25 at 0630, no signal from R. Vanuatu, nor on 5040, 7890, 11835. Maybe still on but blanked by propagation disturbance (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2122 UT March 25
