pirate Hikari FM testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 95.7, Oct 20 at 1850 UT, KXLS Lahoma/Enid is OFF! Instead
on caradio, weak gospel huxter; at 1853 overridden by KKAJ ID, like a
meteor burst; or airplane scatter, in & out. 2000 local still off and
Bott Radio Network singing ID; by 2007 I find it running about 1
second behind 800 KQCV. This all correlates with WTFDA DB:

But two other siblings on 97.7 & 106.3, at separate sites, are not
off. Nothing else heard on 107.1 but I see Bott has another overkill
OKC translator there, El Reno. Something unID on 107.3; several
possibilities around OK and KS. Both 95.7 and 107.1 are back on by
next check circa 2200 UT (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 20 after 2200, VOT English with VG S9+15/25
signal and even VG modulation today into Maryland SDR; includes
`Weekly Analysis` on Turkish relations with Israel until 2228, then
multi-lingual ID filler reel; 2230 `Feeling Supreme/The Healing
Spring` about diarrhea and nutrition, just right for supper time.
After s/off announcement IS & ID still going, switching to German at

CCI! Only other thing listed on at this hour by mwlist is 30 watts
from Leeds, UKQOGBANI; or has Smooth Radio resumed? It`s even worse by
2100 and definitely in Hungarian, so Romania`s 15 kW minority service
must have been expanded past 1900, or 2000? Also confirmed first SWBC, Friday October 20 at 2200 on WRMI 9955,

yes, it`s `Encore` now sked this hour on Fridays (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 7490 -72 Hz = 7489.928, Oct 21 at 0000, WBCQ with `AAAWWW`,
also on 5130+ cutting away from Trumpcrap, no signal on 3265+; and
6160 - 68 Hz = 6159.932, after ID continues with some other far-right,
far-christian huxter, contrary to program sked which claims it`s also
`AAAWWW`. Hmmm, sounds sorta like Biermann, but on BCQ? No, shortly
mentions `Intelligence Report`, which is supposedly sked only at 0000
UT Tue on 7490. Right into how to stock up on guns and ammo. Claims
USA is Soviet-occupied? Back to AAAWWW: at 0037 dated as Oct 20, and
simulcasting only on 7490 & 5130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UZBEKISTAN. 15475, Oct 20 at 1452, JBA carrier, among many on the
band but this one could QRM LRA36 if overlaps with its alleged 15-17

0329-0334, on the R75 with N/S interior shortwire: 1566?, 1044, 999,
855-2=strongest, 774-2, 711, 585, 576, 531 kHz. Then I switch to the Wellbrook loop aimed E/W and get slightly better
results tuning back upward at 0334-0342: 531, 576-2, 639-2, 684, 711,
729, 774, 855-2, 882-2, 909, 954, 999, 1017, 1026, 1044, 1107-2, 1125,
1296, 1305-2, 1422, 1503, 1521 kHz. -2 means at least 2 carriers
beating. Might have pulled a few more, but all the splash from obstructive
North Americans on 10/kHz channels is fierce. Here in deep North
America, with my ordinary equipment, getting any axual TA audio is
rare. But hey, a signal is a signal, making the trip. Many of these
I`m sure are Spain but there are some intriguing other possibilities
listed I won`t go into now. Trans-Pacific: 846, R. Kiribati, Kiritimati, so far have not detected
this, if on the air? Would be audible as early as 0430 at least into
Hawaii SDR, and of course direct long after TAs absorbed in daytime;
anyway, nothing over 3 kW in Europe (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5041.65 USB, Oct 20 at 0712, 2-way in Spanish, very
