** ARGENTINA [non]. 9455, Dec 20 at 0031, Japanese at S9/+5, weakish
signal into Knoxville SDR after checking WOR on 9395; at first thought
maybe something Asian, but WRMI now scheduled with RAE Japanese relay
this hour UT Tue-Sat. At 285 degrees, this is hardly aimed at Japan,'
rather Honolulu and Port Moresby, PNG. If RAE were serious about
reaching East Asia, they would enlist a closer relay site (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, Dec 20 at 0434, this RHC is off, so no English at all.
Only other RHC found on is 11760 Spanish. Non-RHCs: 4765, 5910 on;
5025 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side: ``Subsidies in Cuba: grateful fish --- The Castro 'subsidy' is like
treble hook chemically sharpened for deep-sea fishing.

gratitude and its loyalty towards those supposedly self-sacrificing
and disinterested leaders...``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, Dec 19 before 0600 UT, K17JN-D, still claiming to
be ``K17JI-D`` is back on air already, having been OFF since Dec 17.
Looks like the same multi-channel lineup as before, without one-by-one
checking (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Dec 20 at 2301, S9+30/40 direct, token English
from SNR previewing afternews feature to be about Xmas customs, yawn;
and so it was at 2314 quickcheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.005, Dec 20 at 2300, VOT not off the air,
S9/+20 direct with s/on sked in English. 2346 recheck when measured,
S9+20/30 into UTwente, ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, song; 2350 s/off
by the badax with partial *A23* not B23 English schedule; all times
and frequencies wrong but only one hour early instead of three hours
late! IS briefly and off 2352* uncovering the CCCCCCI from East
Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and
other Moslems. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2221 monitoring: confirmed UT

into Maryland SDR, yes, now offset+plus and calibration confirmed
accurate vs WWV 10000. By 2340 recheck, down to 7490.086. After two

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 3215, UT Wed Dec 20 at 0432, WWCR-1 yet again sup/torted
during gospel huxter, S9+20/30. One program sked this hour UT
Tue/Wed/Thu; different ones other days of week: we should see if this
happen to them too. Something`s not right at Nashville (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** U S A. 690, Dec 20 at 0803 UT, dead air atop several weakers.
Dominant 690 here day and night is KGGF Coffeyville KS, no sign of it
otherwise so presumably the dead one. Might have been missing a news
hole, but still silent after 0806 when some talkshow would have
resumed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7200 USB, not LSB, Dec 20 at 2319 QSO between strong
hams complaining about ham QRMers, someham always making anti-Semitic
remarx; first name basis and heard only one call mentioned in next few
minutes, probably the one speaking as he cambioed, but he didn`t even
say ``this is`` or ``from`` W1INE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) TEXT INTERVIEWS WITH GLENN: SWLing Post blog, Nov 2023, original English; Russian and Spanish
