Logs
** CUBA. 15140, Aug 17 at 1831, S5/S7 direct of dead air in Kriyol?
from RHC. At least the transmitter is on, that`s half the battle,
auguring well for English at 1900? No, at 1932 into Missouri SDR,
still dead air at S9/+10 - or maybe a trace of talk with all volumes
at max! But could be crossmod from elsewhere. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUATEMALA. 28228+, Aug 17 at 2108, DE TG9TEN/B, very long pauses.
WGB list: ``28228.3 TG9TEN/B - Guatemala City GTM EK44mv - #0 (16 Mar
2024) Note: ID + grid - HTX 100 1w into A99 vertical``. No other
beacons but lots of phone on 10m now, e.g, q.v. VIRGIN ISLANDS (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** INTERNATIONAL WATERS [non]. 7268 LSB, Aug 17 at 0608, Hurricane
Watch Net; good of them to keep far enough away from 7260 R Vanuatu.
It seems the NCS has several specific texts with exactly same wording,
calling for check-ins with callsigns from affected areas. Or calling
for low power or portable stations. Even mentions SW listeners!
Welcomes both measured observations and not. 0618 mentions Hurricane
Ernesto. Day channel 14325 [USB] will activate at 7:30 am EDT = 1130
UT. This NCS has been N8NIF. More info at HWN.org Then around 0630 two
others discuss who will take over: W1ABW, WF4H. Very few of the
checkins audible here, just the NCSes. Was hoping to hear Bermuda.

14325 USB not checked until 1813, 1833, nothing heard, and website
shows not active at that time. Uplooking calls at QRZ.com, the last
two do mention HWN:
N8NIF USA flag USA, RICHARD K SEELEY, 1549 ROSEWOOD, JENISON, MI 49428
W1ABW USA flag USA, DOUGLAS H "Doug" HOGE, 15 LAUREL DR, VOLUNTOWN, CT
06384-2015
WF4H USA flag USA, Dwight A Greenberg, 5320 Shadwell Ave, Cocoa, FL
32926
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.825, 27224.51, 27285.17 all AM and approx., Aug 17
at 1820+, Enid CB pirate relaying 105.5 FM translator K288FX of KYLV,
K-Love, 88.9 OKC. All are S9, first two undermodulated, third JB
modulated. Daily chex had not heard any of these since August 6. I do
wonder if K288FX really pick up KYLV direct as it`s flanked by two
other Enid translators on 88.7 and 89.1 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935.416, Aug 17 at 2017, Yemen Radio loud and clear
S9+15/20 in Arabic into UTwente. Off by next check 2130 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9930, Aug 17 at 1837, TOMBS resumed on WTWW
after missing yesterday, S9/+25 and // 9980 WWCR, equally huge
Overkiller, and 9930 running 7 seconds behind 9980. So if you hear
something on 9980 and can`t believe your ears, you have 7 seconds to
hear it again on 9930, how convenient (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.004, Aug 17 at *2157 VOT not off the air, IS & IDs,
S9+15/20 into UTwente, not checked direct. 2200 timesignal, date as
today and s/on the 1230 on 17620, the only SW broadcast they ever
mention despite several repeats including this one. Something`s always
awry at Ankara. 2201 news leads with forest fire under control; Gaza
attax by Israel. 2213 `The Energy Agenda`, record oil produxion in
Turkey, statistix. 2217 music. 2221 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2223
song. 2227 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music. 2233 `Turkey`s
Geomarked Products` repeat about weaving patterns. 2235 song. 2239
``always-by-your-side`` promo, more music... (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17530, Sat Aug 17 at 1814, SSOB S9/+10 English interview on
phone with African accents about Nigeria, chopped amid at 1830* for
VOA, WDC s/off with YDD once. Beyond me why VOA doesn`t correlate
transmission breaks with programming breaks, far from the only
instance of this. O, I get it, SW is only an inconsequential appendage
to other platforms! HFCC not updated since Aug 12! Shows GB =
Grimesland NC, daily at 1700-1830 in English; 1830 switch to Ascension
for Kinyarwanda, but nothing heard now since that is M-F only (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VIRGIN ISLANDS US [and non]. 28395.1 USB, Aug 17 at 2111,
``Ed/V.I.`` is the ``ID`` most often used by this strange station,
contest contacts, eventually says home call is K9VV and club call is
NP2X --- where?? Finally says US Virgin Islands, even tho none of his
calls are specific to there! Says 100 watts. QRZ.com: ``K9VV US Virgin
Islands flag US Virgin Islands, FREDERICK H KLEBER, Gallows Bay
Station, PO BOX 24275, Christiansted, VI 00824-0275, USA. Please QSL
NP2X (NP2X also uploads to LoTW) VIA  K U 9 C  PO Box 529, Mount
Freedom, NJ  07970-0529. NP2X works thousands of folks in contests.
Look forward to working you!! Very 73, Fred, K9VV / NP2X``. Yes, sure
sounded like Ed, not Fred. Lots of other phoners on 10m now, such as
on 28520.14, PY4H## in Brasuguese against a very noisy background
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
