** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, April 20 at 0635, once again the strange
station sending keyboard letters slowly in sequence: ``QWERTYUIOX
ASDFGHJKLÑ ZXCVBNM`` and then much faster: ``VVV DE HK3QQ BOGOTA
COLOMBIA`` --- note the error? of X instead of P, like reversed dits
and dahs? And the Enye after L; maybe that`s where it lies on a
Spanish keyboard. QRZ.com:

``HK3QQ Colombia flag Colombia, Jesús Ernesto Reyes Castro, Bogotà
111156, Colombia
Escuela de telegrafia Marconi ilustrado - Colombia
Frecuencia: 7.070 CW
Beacom VVV De HK3QQ Bogotá Colombia 5W``

** CUBA. 6100, April 20 at 0655, RHC English still on here with some
rumble, and this time nowhere else on 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 or 15 MHz
bands. Had not heard 6100 for weeks. Nominal sked was 05-07 English,
extended to 0730 for Esperanto, Sundays. Something`s not wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 221887)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7400, April 20 at 0642, JBA music, then ``Mayak``
interval signal, and unreadable talk mixed with music: from R.
Vostochnaya Zvezda: first reported moved from 7320 to 7400 at 0419 UT
April 19 by Lucas Bandura, BC:

``[WOR] Radio Channel Eastern Star now on 7400 AM -- He moved
yesterday at 0423 UTC April 18. I was talking to him in the HF
Underground Discord chat and he moved to get away from the Radio Martí
QRM. Today he is having issues with his audio that is causing
distortion. I have also heard the English ID as “Radio Channel Eastern
Star” now.``

Per EiBi, 7400 is a good clear spot - except Brazilian Pará pirate R.
Antares could be there at any hour; nothing broadcasting at night on
7395 or 7405 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2187)

Like our website, a noncommercial service for which financial support
is appreciated; thanks this week to Dan Sheedy, Encinitas CA, for a
generous contribution to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702;
``Just wanted to wish you a happy birthday and throw a donation into
the `WOR vat of consistently useful and accurate DX info`. Thanks for
all your efforts to keep DX info non-trivial. Cheers, Dan``

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. What about Radio Angela? 5130, still no WBCQ R Angela
signal from 0200 UT April 20. Yet, 6160 & 7490 are both carrying
military medley, SSB amid extended Hal Turner show.

R Angela must be of lowest priority - so the usual 5130 xmtr is
broken: why not let it be on one of the others temporarily? Other
nights would deprive dead Brother Hystairical of one frequency among
many.

And what about all the extra transmitters supposedly at Monticello?
Jeff White gave them one from WRMI. 3265 could be turned on at same
time as all the others, so why not use it now, preferably on 5130 or
higher instead?

``Bad tubes``, hard to find. R Angela & listeners may be in for a long
wait unless some alternative is used (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2187)

``Uncle Bill responds: At the moment I anticipate Radio Angela not
returning to the airwaves before May. There are actually two
components to the problem, parts and labor. The late Tom Barna was the
engineer in residence on the spot who might have been able to jury rig
something together, and he is missed more than ever right now. Timtron
and (at the moment) Allan are both some distance away.

The 5130 transmitter does legitimately need new tubes which are both
hard to find and expensive, hence our increasingly-frequent appeals
for financial support. But even with enough benefactors to buy "new"
tubes, the station does also need to hire another engineer as well and
has been actively recruiting. 7490 is full enough that throwing us
there isn't practical and the other frequencies aren't ideal options
just now either for other reasons. It would be nice on general
principles if listeners who miss us wrote the station to remind it
that we are missed when we are gone. --Uncle Bill [Tilford], Curator,
Radio Angela, WBCQ The Planet`` (April 21, WOR iog via Glenn Hauser;
not in time for WOR 2187)

** U S A. 9975, UT Fri Oct 21 at 0110, still no signal from KVOH,
which had started to run on Thursday nights too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0201 UT April 21
