** BOTSWANA. 13830.32, Tue May 23 at 0638, open carriers beating,
seemingly another on 13830.0. Presumably VOA in French not turned off
after 0530-0630 M-F (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 15034 USB, May 23 at 1533, Trenton Military is JBA, at par
with ``no report received`` from Zagreb, Split. Had been inaudible
several days and presumed off altho propagation has been degraded and
still is. Right now, CHU 14670 is also JBA. CHR is again audible
direct at 2227 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9565, May 23 at 0622, two-tone blipping with BFO, surely a
jammer against nothing, operator messing around as happens
occasionally, instead of regular pulse noise. This is a longtime
Martí frequency, but only at 21-24 per Aoki & EiBi; and wisely, no
other broadcasters are ever on 9565 now. Some different toning on
11930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 9965, May 23 at 0621, pulse jamming against
nothing, a frequency evacuated by R. República at least a decade ago
when stopped via Costa Rica. Now using 9965 are only Palau on a very
limited non-daily 08/13 UT skedspan; and EiBi also shows something
unknown to me:

must be a Brazilian pirate (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GUAM [and non]. 9890, May 23 at 1955, tune in one of two KiwiSDRs
in Korea South, for KSDA, AWR scheduled to start a new day at 20-21
UT in Korean. Cuts on air at *1957 with incredible S9+60 carrier, some
dips to only +45. 1959 my ``Optimum`` internet drops out, and not back
until 2001 when I`m on the other KS SDR where it`s much weaker and
noisier, but underway in Korean with AWR mentions, perhaps for the
last time? Since a super-typhoon is heading toward Guam and expected to hit
Wednesday afternoon, circa 04 UT. As soon as we got this story via
Mike Terry, A monster typhoon is barreling toward a US territory with deadly winds
and 25-foot storm surge
By Derek Van Dam, CNN Meteorologist
Published 10:47 AM EDT, Tue May 23, 2023 Super Typhoon Mawar is barreling toward Guam on Tuesday, threatening
to
slam into the US territory as the strongest storm there in more than
60
years. The typhoon, which has strengthened rapidly in recent days, is posing
a
“triple threat” of devastation including deadly winds equivalent to a
category 5 hurricane, exceptional storm surge and torrential rainfall,
according to the National Weather Service office in Guam... https://edition.cnn.com/2023/05/23/weather/typhoon-mawar-guam-forecast-track-tuesday/index.html I started replying: I was going to suggest monitoring KTWR & KSDA whether they be blown
off -- both totally worthless for any LOCAL news about Guam. WRTH
Update
https://wrth.info/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/WRTH23_INT_Summer-8.pdf
has nothing under Guam. Instead they are mixed in with other TWR and
AWR sites under Singapore and USA respectively. If anyone can find or
compile KTWR-only or KSDA-only transmission skeds, please do so.
Glenn Perhaps most convenient will be EiBi by time:
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/bc-a23.txt For KTWR, search on KTWR, to find it is OFF the air between 1630 and
1000.
For KSDA, search on GUM-a, which is OFF the air at 1830-2000 and
0000-1000.
Not considering day of week variations. So first up will be KSDA at 20-21 in Korean on 9890
Glenn, 1833 UT There is one public radio station, KPRG
http://www.kprgfm.com/main/index.php
and its stream is working
http://peridot.streamguys.com:5090/live I have not investigated for commercial stations There are many more utility transmitters which you can find on EiBi by
searching merely GUM There are no KiwiSDRs to be found on Guam by searching or on the world
map. Glenn I do not see any explicitly local news on the schedule which is UT+10,
but I suppose there may be some such inserts during NPR programs such
as ATC. Here & Now is currently running at 6-8 am. Glenn
http://www.kprgfm.com/main/index.php?key=schedule KPRG did not occupy the optional cutaway in NPR news at 1904 UT, but
stayed with NPR news until 1906. Also, I see that KPRG does not carry
NPR Morning Edition which would start around local midnight, but
rather BBCWS. Glenn Arthur Pozner replies: Radio-locator.com has 21 local stations listed
for Guam. Most of them appear to have live links. And Jose Jacob, India: Hello Glenn,
KSDA A23 Schedule is in my site:
https://qsl.net/vu2jos/A23/KSDA.pdf
KTWR A23 Schedule is in my site:
https://qsl.net/v/vu2jos//A23/KTWR.pdf Gary Pence says at 2059: Glenn, The radar shows they`re getting into
it. I can only hope it moves quickly; the slower it moves or stalls
awhile, more damage and destruction occurs. Gary So we`re all set to follow what happen to Guam and its stations.
SAIPAN & TINIAN with USAGM SW stations are not far away to the North,

WOR) ** LIBERIA. 6050, May 23 at 0632, JBA something, presumed ELWA which
Bryan Clark, NZ, says has just been resuscitated. For longtime in
nightly bandscans during this hour, I have encountered nothing on
6050; and sharer HCJB is off by 0500 latest. Monrovia sunrise is now
0627 UT and varies only a few minutes during the year at +6 degrees

FairBurY, at 422 km = 262 stmi, or 10.48 miles per watt, or 0.0954
watt per mile; admittedly shortly beyond the KS border (Glenn Hauser,
