** ALGERIA. 13590 & 13790, July 17 at 0118, unlike July 15, now both Ifrikya FM sites and frequencies are on with rock music, mentions ``Afrique`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, July 17 at 0124, S9+10/20 of big humbuzz, obviously RHC but English or Spanish? No program mod; wiggle that patchcord. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, July 17 at 0633, extra tonight in Spanish S7/S9 but just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Mon July 17 at 2206, token English from SNR, VG into Maryland SDR and other three frequencies also audible; feature is interview with an award-winning Canadian photographer specialising in sub-Saharan Africa, sorely lacking any visual element. 2226 a brief report about algo from Beirut correspondent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 7260, July 17 at 0129, VOT multi-lingual ID filler reel, during Spanish hour - IDess for that language is really cutesy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.019, July 17 at 2159, VOT IS, not off the air today, S9+30 into UTwente, 2200 quite distorted in s/on also by distorted accentedess, a double-whammy encouraging tuneout. Recheck 2258 it`s off already, so no extra German or Portuguese. Something`s always awry at Ankara and/or erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2199 monitoring: confirmed UT Monday July 17 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9 into Durango2, Mexico SDR, again with external noise blast first 14 seconds. Louisiana SDR accessible later, S9/+10 with storm crashes all over LA. Also confirmed UT Monday July 17 at 0302 just underway on Area 51, modulating via WBCQ 6160 minus 68 Hz = 6159.932, S7/9+10 into Maryland SDR; followed after 0330 by barnyard/animal sounds, apparently W.D.C.D. as at 0358, still past 0401+ rather than TOMBS. Sked shows H.R.I. at 0330, W.D.C.D. before WOR at 0230. Next: 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 No new contributions this week by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, July 17 at 0122, this WRMI is DA or JBM at best, S9+10/20. It`s either Legends per System K sked, or RAE Spanish per transmitter grid, one of many inconsistencies, contradixions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, July 17 at 0130, WRNO is on at S9+20/30 but distorted music. Something`s messed up at Metairie or SNAFU at Fort Worth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. FM DX: DXMAP shows sporadic E reaching OK, but as often happens I`m getting instead mostly tropo extending into far reaches of OK, north TX and even LA, KXKS-FM 93.7 Shreveport, July 17 at 1554/1816+ UT, blocking Es if any. Again 2026-2108 UT now some Es making it from the east, including WBJC 91.5 Baltimore MD. Details of all this yet to be compiled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0008 UT July 18 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
