** ROMANIA. 11930, Feb 23 at 0652, surprised to encounter something in English, S7/S9 direct, in fact the SSOB = strongest signal on band. Normally nothing but leftover Cuban jamming against R. Martí, but none audible now. EiBi shows the only 11930 besides RM at 14-01 is RRI Galbeni to Europe at 0630-0700; Aoki lax RRI but adds Riyadh, Sa`udi Arabia in Arabic at 1755-2257. Is that really on air? We could hardly notice it here vs the Cuban radio war. Std remark about avoiding any frequency ever jammed by Cuba, tho RRI in luck this time. Aoki also fails to * Martí as jammed! nor does EiBi show any separate entries for noise jamming. HFCC nothing but RM and RRI but the latter as N = DRM! 90 kW 300 degrees from Galbeni: certainly not, this in AM. Not in drmrx.org either. RRI own B23 English sked shows only two DRM frequencies elsewhen, not including 11930: https://www.rri.ro/en_gb/frecvente-259 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Feb 23 at 2300, token English from SNR, sufficient direct on DX-390 with clipon, 2301 news, first items about a major fire, and corruption case concerning COVID masks; much better on R75 with shortwire: 2309 contact info by Justin Coe, including they especially enjoy postal mail; as if he were still there. 2310 feature interview with an expert about the impending 2nd anniversary of Russia`s war on Ukraine (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.005, Feb 23 at 2308, VOT English a JBA carrier direct vs HLNL. 2333 into UTwente, when measured, S9+30/35, during `Turkish Folk Tales`; 2337 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music; 2342 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, `That`s Why` voiced by the badax so I have no idea of the subject; 6CI undercurrent. 2348 ``w-y-e-h`` again, music. 2353 s/off for the 1330 broadcast only, 2354 IS; still on at 0000 Feb 24 timesignal, into German. On & on, same liners/jingles/themes as in English. 0059 recheck *still* on air with IS, 0100 s/on Luso-Portuguese! Takes about 2 minutes to recite all the satellite parameters, etc., not copied in detail but with Turkish times, one at 22h and this one at 04. Supposedly no Portuguese at all, but someone recently heard them announce 7280 at this time, so now intentional? Time yes, but nothing on 7280. By 0103 I recheck 5960: now it`s suddenly off, uncovering Chinese from XJRTV, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Muslims; trying to outdo Turkey against the Armenians? 0104 I check 7280 again and *now* it is on in Portuguese, VG really 7280.006. Somethings` always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2231 monitoring: confirmed Friday February 23 at 2130 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1322.997 kHz, S9+10 but noisy into UTwente across Europe.
