** CUBA. 11760, June 27 at 0646, RHC S9+10/20 in wrong? language,
Spanish instead of usual extra English, only frequency still on air
alternating with 9700 and 11670. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 11760, June 27 at 2203, S3/S7 of almost dead air
except for squeal, presumably RHC Spanish; but the JBM music is not //
11850 which really is RHC Spanish doing much better than usual, S5/S8
undermod but sufficient. Therefore I think the music under 11760 be
the simulscheduled CRI Portuguese from Xi`an to Europe, which of
course is nothing but fill music even at hourtop like at 2300 on 13650
via Cuba. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 17470, June 27 at 2150, JBA carrier direct,
presumably Dengê Welat via Uzbekistan and/or more likely Recep`s
Turkish jammer. Nothing else on 16m except Spain 17855, weaker 17715
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Area tropo is up per APRS map, reaching Enid from west,
south, east. RF 14, June 27 at 1520 UT, brief decode with PSIP ID for
KOCY as 48-3. That`s Telemundo, unnecessary since is also on a much
stronger subchannel of RF 29 KTUZ. Does not last long enough to
explore what may be on 48-1, 48-2, 48-4 or beyond, but rabbitears.info
shows it`s alone despite the -3 virtual enumeration. I`ve had traces
of this before when OKC tropo enhances but not definite until now.
It`s 15 kW, somewhat direxional northward since site is on south side
of OKC, near SE 49th and Oklahoma Avenue. BAD signals are on RF 10, 11, 20, 21, 22, 26, 31, 35. But there is no
signal at all on RF 29, normally huge local-level from ``Shawnee``
with the three Spanish nets and some shoppers. Suspect KTUZ may really
be off the air. It`s back by 1605 check. Some Tulsans are in, on RF
28, ION 44-1; and an RF 29 spoiler from there could be 15 kW KTZT-CD,
Daystar for Tulsa, but unlikely. Other Bad signals decoding briefly long enough to ID are RF 34, 33-1
KWRW-LD OKC, Heartland et al., and RF 36, 36-1 KUOKCD1 [sic] OKC,
Univision also duplicated on RF 29 KTUZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 99 MHz Es MUF in spots leads me to the caradio for a
check, but nonesuch here, rather tropo is up. On 93.5 I normally get
fringer from Kansas to the north, but June 27 at 1732 UT I happen to
catch an ad for ``right here in Altus`` and then ``K-pro 93.5 Altus``.
WTFDA FMDB shows it relays KWHW 1450, but no mention of it now!
KPRO KWHW 1450 93.5 ALTUS OK ROCK KPRO ROCKS 45.0 88.0 34-37-35
99-20-10 4AE4
235 km = 146 miles. I had several days` logs of KWHW x 2 on 2899.75 in
May 2015. Altus also has the distinxion often of hitting maximum heat
in OK since it`s in the SW corner, well over 100 lately. One other log
this opening from TX: see U S A (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA. 11800, June 27 at 2202, no signal direct from RRI, English
alternative I had recommended. Very bad propagation, or off? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, June 27 at 2200:17, timesignal ending 17 seconds
late compared to WWV, poor S4/S6 from VOT English direct with ACI from
11780 Brasil; anyhow, not off the air today. Something`s always awry
at Ankara and/or erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2196 monitoring: ``15770, UNITED

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9265, June 27 at 0643, NO signal from WINB which per own
schedule is supposed to run TOMBS daily until 0658: but has wrong time
conversion between ``EST`` instead of EDT vs UT, i.e. 5 hour
difference instead of 4. Come to think of it, I don`t encounter WINB
in routine bandscans after 0600. So suspect it really stops at 0558 UT
= 1:58 am EDT. That means ALL OTHER program times at
http://winb.com/schedule.htm are WRONG: The EST is really EDT and the
UTs are one hour later than reality. One could confirm this by
checking any random shorter program on air vs on sked. It`s incredible
that America`s ``oldest`` private SW station would make such juvenile
mistakes. I try 9265 Tue June 26 at 2206 UT and hear a gospel huxter in Spanish:
none sked!:
04:00P / Tue-2100...Bishop S. C. Johnson
05:00P / Tue-2200...The Overcomer
06:30P / Tue-2330...The Essentials of Life and Wellness
But there is supposedly on Wednesdays: even further SNAFU:
04:00P / Wed-2100...A Look At The Book - Spanish -
04:30P / Wed-2130...Wells of Salvation
05:00P / Wed-2200...Templo Trinidad Presenta Jesucristo
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9975, it seems my previous log of KVOH, UT Monday June 26
before 0600, was in its very last minutes forever. Shortly afterwards,
Jose Jacob notified that had been its final broadcast, more info in
the next `AWR Wavescan`. Dino Bloise of `Frecuencia al Día` which had
also been carried on KVOH, also reported this. I had been hearing
rumors of impending doom for some time. It would seem that if its own
transmitter is no longer any good, and if the Tayloes wish to continue
their ministry and could afford it, buying a few hours on existing US
SW stations would serve the purpose, such as WRMI or even WTWW. George
McClintock had been trying to make a deal for KVOH to buy WTWW, but it
did not work out. It seems that KVOH also has a problem with the lease
running out for the property it has been using. Jose Jacob also refers
us to his convoluted history of KVOH et al., as of two years ago:
https://qsl.net/vu2jos/VOH.pdf
The last I checked there was nothing about this on VOH website (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15150, June 27 at 0649, presumed DEJOM on WMLK, but only
S6/S8 direct unlike usual 300 kW whopper; 15770 WRMI is stronger,
reverse of normal. Maybe northerly propagation be degraded, or QRP
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5980, Tue June 27 at 0651, weak carrier interfering with
Cuba`s jamming against nothing; as I bandscan downward I know I will
find 5890 TOMBS on WWCR on the air even tho has been running overnight
only on weekends; leaping over 5935 DGS/PMS another 45 kHz beyond.
Yup, there it is on 5890, S9+20/30. And current sked dated June 1
still shows WWCR-4 OFF the air M-F at 05-12 UT. Change, or mistake?
Something`s not right at Nashville (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9395, June 27 at 2208, ``Bishop`` Bob Biermann is really
angry on `Truth [sic] 2 Ponder` via WRMI. He must have recovered from
his surgery. Denounces homosexuality as sinful and laments that
``Pride`` gets a whole month with 3 more days to go, while worthy
unsinful holidays are for only one day a year! Doesn`t care what
others think of him. Names several major denominations which have
embraced Gay Pride: they are all wrong, he thinx (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 96.7, June 27 at 1724 UT into caradio, a strong and steady
*mono* signal with two guys talking about engorgement, phone sex ---
oooh, hot stuff; axually rather vapid, but what is this on normally
nothing channel adjacent local 96.9? I was looking for Es but this
isn`t. Finally at 1730, ``The Ticket`` for the ``tri-state area``
[besides TX and OK, what??], later mentions DFW and ``Sports Radio
96-7 and 1310 The Ticket``, so it`s:
KTCK-FM 96.7 FLOWER MOUND TX SPORTS SPORTS RADIO 1310 & 96.7, THE
TICKET 90.0 621.0 33-26-13 97-29-05 426A All sports all the time KTCK
The Ticket // KTCK 1310 381 km = 236 miles.
Flower Mound is on the north side of The Metroplex which may help a
little, but as before I have no sign of any other DFW signals. Finally
fades at 1736 but back up at 1741, now really talking about sports
instead of sex; as I leave for lunch. One other log this opening, see
OKLAHOMA. That is, until another check on the caradio at 2047: 94.5, ads and PSA
for contact Dallas City Hall for West Nile Virus info, AC 214. This is
the station closest to Dallas, well north of The Metroplex and good
for reception into OK:
