** COLOMBIA. 6016.84, July 15 at 0211, JBA carrier, presumably this as
reported a few nights ago: ``COLOMBIA, 6017, Organización Radial El
Prado, 0353-0357*, 09-07, after many months without hearing it, today
on air with Colombian song and closing transmission with the national
anthem of Colombia. 15422. Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, Log in
Reinante, NW of Spain, Sangean ATS 909X, Tecsun PL-880, cable antenna,
8 meters``. And he reports it again just now: ``6016.9, Organización
Radial El Prado, 0128-0137, 15-07, Spanish, comments, Latin American
songs. 15421.`` Two sesquiyears ago it was reported on 6016.4 and
6016.7. Wethinx this be a pirate; not in WRTH 2024 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, UT Monday July 15 at 0219, RHC English propaganda, VG
S9+30 here and nowhere else, not even 6000. A bit of studio reverb and
YL accent impaired comprehension. At 0234, Elena Valverde with
``Caribbean Outlook Show`` about H. Beryl damage to several Windward
islands [or it seems that Windward & Leeward have fallen out of
fashion; unofficial anyway]. The Other Side: ``Where are you going, Cuba? --- Fidel Castro lost the country. Today,
Castroism is just struggling to stay in power, at any cost.

Cuban emigrants on a raft. Getty Images Pursuing his cardinal goal of perpetuating himself in power, in 1959
Fidel Castro planted the seeds of a crisis that today seems to be
finally winding to an end. The bearded commander rose to power on a
scaffolding of unaccountable government so that he could implement his
personal agenda, breaking his promise to restore the 1940 Constitution
and hold democratic elections, as it was always his aim —privately
confessed to his most trusted confidante, Celia Sánchez— to foment
perpetual confrontation with the United States, perhaps because he

the only enemy as enormous as his ego...``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5955, July 15 at 0607, not wideband noise with hum centered
here, unlike the usual pulse-jamming sound against no R. República
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, July 15 at 1455, RHC at S6/S8 of dead air, some hum,
not sure if JBM. Not found anywhere else, 15140 missing as usual.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, July 15 at 1915, NO signal from RHC`s first English
broadcast of the day - make that zeroeth, as usual. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. However, it can happen: Ron Trotto, IL, had it on July
12; and Rick Barton, AZ, on July 6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11760, July 16 at 0137, S9/+20 of dead air in Spanish from
RHC. Nothing at all on possible English frequencies, 11950, 9700,
6000. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 4765, July 16 at 0151, no signal from R. Progreso; but 5025
R. Rebelde is on at S9+20/30 somewhat distorted. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6955 USB, July 15 at 0201, pirate music at S7/S8,
interrupted for announcement at 0202, ``go to wix.com [??], single
life portal [?] platform``, back to music. Filed here as WIND tho no
one seems to quote an ID by those letters:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6938.0 AM, July 15 at 0203, JBM talk at S7. Probably
a pirate, but nothing in HFU recently on this frequency/mode (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Mon July 15 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
direct and also audible on 17715, 15520, 15390. Preview topic to be
about the province of León pushing for autonomy from Castilian
domination (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sunday July 14 at 2201, not off the air, VOT
English underway, olds by Ms Badax, S9+40 into UTwente. 2209 `Weekly
Analysis` on the NATO/Washington summit. 2213 music. 2218 `Letterbox`
intro but plays a tune first before host speaks at 2224. Opens mail
for first time, almost all QSL requests, some with standard wording,
from: Japan where it`s rainy season. Handwritten from Spain, can`t
make out name. Miss Mei Lin in Szechuan, China says she wrote 8
letters last year and 4 so far this year without any replies: host
thinx it`s because altho wrote in English, address is in Chinese only,
which the QSL dept. can`t handle. Another from Spain, ditto. A.
Klepov, Moscow, a regular. Another from Russia. Andrei Kuznetsov, a
Russian name in Riga, ``Letonia``. ``Eugene`` K. in Russia. Craig
Tyson, Perth, Australia, two in a row. Jayanta Chakroborty, India.
Says QSLs in postal mail should arrive with stamps [rather than
metered?]. Two more from Tyson = four reports for four days in a row.
2240 time`s up, ``goodbye, my lovely dear listeners``, music fill
again until 2240 `L`box` intro/outro plays again, then music outside
it. 2250 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2252 Ms Badax s/off as if the
1230 on 17620, IS until chop at 2254.8* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.019, Mon July 15 at 2205, VOT English not off the
air, but unreadable direct at only S9 level equal to noise. 2225 into
UTwente when measured, S9+35/45, `The Energy Agenda` repeat about
effects of Russian/Ukrainian war. 2231 Ms Badax with `That`s Why`,
black is not a color. 2235 music. 2239 multi-lingual ID filler reel.
2241 music. 2253 Badax s/off as 1230 on 17620. 2254.7 IS main theme
only twice before chop by 2255* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 7260 AM, July 16 at 0147 snippet of music
recognizable as one of the themes duriing VOT English. This is Spanish
as sked; also an LSB ham right on frequency for free BFO (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7630.5 USB, July 16 at 0141, military net with quick 2-way
voice contacts, callsigns abbreviated but unreadable; pauses for
``test messages`` in digihash. Searching frequency in UDXF iog gets a
few hits as USAF MARS no more recently than 2014y; nothing on exact
frequency in 2022y Klingenfuß (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2251 monitoring: confirmed Sunday

73702. One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 9955, July 15 at 0604, WRMI is off again instead
of persistent late extension, leaving 9960 VANUATU alone but JBA. 9955
is still on past 1500 July 15, S4/S6 like noise level, cannot discern
if modulated. 5010 was also off at 0604, as it would usually match
9955 late activity (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15150, July 15 at 0600, still no signal from WMLK, which
should have started at 0400 on a non-Sabbathday. Not a peep from
DEJOM. Usual spread of several other mostly JBA signals on 19mb. BUT: 9275 *is* on July 15 at 1739, VG S9+10/25 into Maine SDR (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1549.82 approx., July 15 at 0225, carrier/het to 1550.00
stations. Like I logged May 16 at 0627 on 1549.91. Not to be confused
with tones flanking 1650, as I was about to (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1649.58 & 1650.42 approx., July 15 at 0612, ~420 Hz tone
against a FSR 1650 station, which would be KCNZ Iowa; so this is
something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Over-the-Horizon radar rapid clickery in three different
spans with the same sound, approx.:
15942-15966, July 15 at 0157, S9
9152-9176, July 15 at 0216, S7
12167-12190, July 15 at 0230.
Note the `typical` bandwidth about 24 kHz. From Europe, or Asia?
