** CUBA. 9700, June 25 at 0154, RHC in English with good signal; not
on 11950 now but Jon Collins, Birmingham UK reported at 0020:
``listening to radio habana cuba on 11950 khz in english from 00:00
utc, very strong reception with very good audio etc but yl reading the
news speaks too quickly. Tecsun pl-660+15 mtr long wire`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Monday June 24 at 2200, token English from SNR,
S9+10/20 direct; also detectable on 17715, 15520 but not 15390 which
for Africa is always weakest here. First news item about the tragedy
of Melilla, when thousands of migrants mostly from Sudan were killed
trying to get into that enclave next to Morocco. 2220 interview about
researching the Spanish civil war. 2227 outro, has been with Nigel
Thompson, author of new Penguin book, ``Modern History of Spain``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.000, June 23 at *2200, VOT carrier cuts on a few sex
late, no modulation, S9/+5 into UTwente and not the usual .009 offset,
but cuts off at 2202* and never comes back for rest of hour. So much
for English to us and the Letterbox show. Should have checked previous
accidental alternates 11795 & 9875. Another anomaly followed UT June
24: JRX in Brasil heard them in unscheduled Portuguese after 0000 on
9870, test?; which is sked for Spanish at 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.010, June 24 at 2200, JBA carrier direct if it`s VOT;
but a few minutes later it`s S9/+10 but still insuff. vs noise level.
Into UTwente at 2218 when measured, S9+40/50 about Turkey`s solar
energy capacity. 2226 music. 2230 multi-lingual ID filler reel, music.
2237 `That`s Why` with Ms Badax, something about paradoxes,
contradixions, lying, logic. 2242 music. 2247 ``always-by-your-side``
promo. 2248 music. 2253 s/off by OM ignoring SW. 2253.4 IS to chopoff
at 2255.2* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9870.005, June 24 at 2355, VOT IS, S9+25/35 into UTwente,
with ACI until it`s off at 2356*, presumably CRI 9865 Urumqi. And at
2256 restart IS with Portuguese IDs; hard to understand, but seems
like ``Ouvem a TRT, Voz de Túrkiye`` [not Turquia, stress on the i].
JRX in Brasil heard this test? broadcast last night and we are
rechecking. Some modulation dropouts. 0000 UT June 25, S/on with
lengthy satellite parameters, 5-digit MHz frequencies, symbol rates,
etc., for a broadcast at 22h Turkish time, I think. At the very end
also mentioned SW 9870, time not copied, but presumably now and an
intentional broadcast before the 01-02 Spanish on same, rather than
accidental. Does not start with news, rather music, and very little
talk during hour. 0027 multi-lingual ID filler reel like during
English. 0034 `That`s Why` theme, now titled ``Por que``? YL announcer
with Luso not Braso accent, and JRX finds her Turkish accent makes it
harder to understand (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2248 monitoring: UT Sat June 22:
``I was passing through the 5-MHz band [5085] when I noticed that WTWW
had a very good signal (SINPO 45333) coming in tonight, and there was
Glenn's voice with "World of Radio" in progress. I already listened to
the latest episode via podcast, but by 0414 UTC, Glenn was talking
about New Zealand and then Oklahoma as the program progressed through
the episode.
The episode was done at 0428 UTC, followed by a religious song, a
couple of transmitter interruptions mid-song at 0430 UTC, then off for
good a moment later. The signal was down to SINPO 35333 before
sign-off. Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens, Washington``

Confirmed Sunday June 23 at 2027 the 2000 on WRN Europe webcast, but
not on the 2000 WRMI webcast only: rather, music fill; did WOR start
and cut off early or not at all? These timings have been problematic.
Still on skedgrid, and Wavescan started OK at 2030.

Confirmed Sunday June 23 at 2130 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001,
S8/9+10, and 3975.002, S9/+10 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday June 23 at 2330 on WRMI 7570, S9+15/20 into
Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday June 24 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+15 into
Querétaro SDR.

NOT confirmed UT Monday June 24 at 0300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6159.931,
S9/+10 into NH SDR. Instead, 0301 ID and nothing but rock music, no
announcements, until 0400 ID and turnover to TOMBS!

Larry Will explains: ``I was away this weekend and the automation
system failed to pick up JPL {Johnny Lightning?} for some reason. This
cascaded into the later programming as well. I apologize for the
non-airing. Lw``

Also confirmed Monday June 24 at 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, into
UTwente: 6160.001 at S9+10 and 3975.004 at S7/9+5. Next:

** U S A. 5130v, June 23 at 2358, NO signal from this WBCQ into
Maryland SDR. Seems it has not come back since activated with a
stronger transmitter for `AAAWWW` UT June 22 until 0100. ``No *rump
none of the time``  --- I`m for that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WTWW: SW100 transmitter update from George McClintock, June
23: ``Glenn, I have just removed the 4 loading inductors (coils) from
the Harris SW100 number 3 transmitter and placed them in cleaning
vinegar. After washing, they are ready to be put back into place.
These coils were so dirty that the motors were having a difficult time
moving them. I had to put a voltage regulator in that had been removed
and the wires tied together by the previous engineer. The high voltage
power supply is working well. We are getting ready to bring the Harris
SW100 transmitter up in the very near future.`` (via Glenn Hauser,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, June 24 at 0635, RV is gone again, no signal. I did
not check for other frequencies but he did: ``[WOR] R. Vanuatu on 3945
kHz --- Lucio Otavio Bobrowiec --- Hi all, 3945 kHz, R. Vanuatu, VUT;
06/24, 0934. 7260, 7890 and 11835 off/inaudible. OM 25422 (LOB).
Tecsun PL 310ET, Dipole 18m, Embu SP Brasil`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 4940, June 24 at 0639, JBA music, presumed Estación
4940. Usually nothing there around this hour, but surely this when
there be; has been quite erratic. Much earlier into Bonaire SDR but
unlogged, it had a VG signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 28290, June 24 at 2127, JBA carrier direct when there is
nothing else on 10m. I could report countless unID carriers, but
mostly internal birdies landing on odd split frequencies. This one
could be third harmonic of 9430 - but nothing listed anywhen there by
Aoki or EiBi. Let this anyway serve as a reminder to be alert for such
harmonix especially on higher bands when propagation opens up (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
