** CHINA [and non]. 13720, July 2 at 1347, very rough carrier here with some talk, tone. Aoki & EiBi show this hour has CNR1 or Firedrake jamming and RFA Tibetan via TAJIKISTAN. BTW, RFA Tibetan is making a whole bunch of frequency changes July 3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. Sound of Hope and consequently CNR1 jammers are attracted to frequencies ending in XX920: July 2 at 1443, JBA carrier on 14920, then on 15920 instead; and also on slightly stronger 13920 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13700, July 2 at 1347, no signal direct from RHC. Consequently no huge spurblobs out of that transmitter either. I`m seldom monitoring before 1400 so make a point to check this today, since nominal sked was 1100-1400. Searching archive of reports I do not find anyone else reporting at least 13700 for many months. Seems at least one RHC transmitter be permanently off. Other frequencies AWOL are 11880 afternoons, 6060 and 6100 evenings/nights (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, July 2 at 0639, JBA talk vs S9 HSNL, presumably anti-Christ pirate Station YHWH; tnx to tips from Lucas Bandura, Walt Salmaniw and Eric Fetters-Walp on the WOR iog who were still hearing him around 0630, much later than usual. 7400, July 2 at 0640, JBA carrier here too, presumably Radio Eastern Star or whatever currently named (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 96.9, July 2 at 1658 UT, futile bandscan for Es can`t help but notice that local KQOB is in dead air for 2+ minutes, but remodulating by 1702 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460, Sun July 2 at 1442, S7/9+10 algo just barely modulated. Only listed this hour is VOA in Kirundi/Kinyarwanda on weekends only. Before 1400 it`s RBAustralia in English daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** THAILAND. Compilation of posts on the bdxc-uk, odxa and WOR iogs July 1: [bdxc-news] Radio Thailand new schedule from July 1st Dear Valued Listeners, We would like to inform you about an important update regarding the schedule of the Radio Thailand World Service (Shortwave Radio Program). Effective from July 1st, 2023, there will be a change in the broadcast schedule. The new schedule will take effect at 0000 UTC. Thank you for your understanding and continued support. Best regards, Radio Thailand World Service 0000-0030 English 13750 kHz 0200-0230 English 13750 0500-0530 English 17640 1200-1230 English 9940 1230-1245 Vietnamese 9940 1245-1300 Mandarin 9940 1300-1315 Japanese 9940 1315-1330 Malaysian 9940 1330-1400 English 9940 1800-1830 English 7475 1830-1930 English 7475 #radiothailandworldservices #RadioThailand #FM88 (via Alan Pennington) ?? Does this mean all broadcasts in their own language, Thai, are canceled? Why don`t they say so? Check 13750 at 0030-0200. The others are more or less as in B-22 WRTH. A hotlink heading the sked goes to disgraced FB, not even to own website. Glenn Yes, only Radio Saranrom continues on 1575 kHz. There's an unfortunate error in https://wrth.info/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/WRTH23_INT_Summer_13.pdf 1330-1400 9940 kHz should also be in English, not Thai. Mauno Yes. This question was asked on their Facebook page: ".....But will there be no more Thai programs in the future?" And Radio Thailand World Service responded: "And yes, we will no longer have Thai program from Jul, 1st." 73 Alan Coming in well on an SDR in Indonesia at 0005 UTC, in English, on new 13750. Harold Sellers, Vernon, BC Jakarta is still getting a noisy signal on 13750 at 0037, something in English about China. Well, HSK9 English used to be 30 + 30 minutes from 0000. What will happen at 0100? Glenn 0047: I have not listened closely but it may well be CRI, per Aoki 00-01 this hour in English on 13750. Is Harold sure it was Thailand at 0000, no China QRM either? Thailand had been on 15590 per Aoki but nothing there now. Was 0000-0030 English, 0030-0100 Thai, 01-02 break, 0200-0230 English. Glenn Yes, I heard them talking about events in Thailand. I hope to check again at 0200 for their next English half-hour. Harold Heard again via the Indonesia SDR. Radio Thailand signing on in English at 0200 on 13750. ID heard, but VOA Radio Deewa was stronger. Radio Thailand needs to try another frequency. Harold Sellers, Vernon, BC As also noted here via Jak. If these are both really from Udon Thani site, what a mess. Nobody noticed they already had a program on 13750? Even if different sites, unacceptable. Maybe to Harold direct RT in English rules? Later after 0200: no signal direct to here from anything on 13750 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, July 1 at 2215, VOT is not off the air, rather VG modulation and S9+25/35 signal into UTwente; something about Dracula? I`m mainly monitoring elsewhere but a few chex here: 2225 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2241 something about cheese. s/off and IS chopped before completed even once at 2254.7* No finesse! Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4750, July 2 at 0643, CODAR ID firing thrice as I happen to pass here in bandscan, ends in 5 and presumably the usual WRPV785 in California: so the `schedule` should be at :43, :03 and :23 past each hour. Like CODAR swirshing itself, these IDs are very wideband, not on one discrete CW frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2197 monitoring: confirmed Saturday July 1 at 2230:30 on WRMIs: 15770 S9+10 to Virginia SDR; at 2251, VG S9+10/20 into UTwente; 5850 JBA in HSNL to Virginia; and 7730 still AWOL. Also confirmed UT Sunday July 2 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/9+10 into Louisiana SDR, starting as always on 7780 with a rude QRM blast for first 14 seconds. Also confirmed UT Sunday July 2 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/30 into Missouri but with lite warble RTTY? QRM I have not noted before vs 9395. Also confirmed UT Sunday July 2 from 0411 the 0315v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, but again with heavy local storm crashes. Also confirmed Sunday July 2 at 1346 the 1330 on WRMI 9955, S8/9 direct, no jamming audible. Next: 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week to Ron Howard, Monterey, California for a check to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, ``In memory of Noel Green.
