Logs
** CUBA. 15140, Aug 21 at 1815, S5/S7 of dead air, in Arabic? Did not
get around to checking if Englishing after 1900. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. Re 11610, R. Feda on Madagascar World Voice: what does
Feda mean? Google will only translate it from Turkish, not Arabic, as
sacrifice; reverse translation from sacrifice to Arabic yields:
tashia. I can`t find any explanation in WRTH or online. R Feda seems
to exist separately from MWV, based in Lebanon (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. ``PUBLIC NOTICE Published in the Enid News & Eagle August
20, 2024 LPXLP (282) --- Tillman Infrastructure, LLC is proposing to
construct a 174-foot overall height monopole telecommunications
structure near 4509 Unruh Drive, Enid, Garfield County, Oklahoma (N36°
26’ 25.1”; W97° 55’ 04.8”). Tillman Infrastructure, LLC invites
comments from any interested party on the impact the proposed
undertaking may have on any districts, sites, buildings, structures,
or objects significant in American history, archaeology, engineering,
or culture that are listed or determined eligible for listing in the
National Register of Historic Places. Comments may be sent to
Environmental Corporation of America, ATTN: Annamarie Howell, 1375
Union Hill Industrial Court, Suite A, Alpharetta, GA 30004 or via

667-2040 x 108 during normal business hours. Comments must be received
within 30 days of the date of this notice. 24-002152 MMT``

WTF,K?? Such notices are not unusual around here - but totally
unconcerned with RF interference impact!!!!!!! (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935.400, Aug 21 at 1556, Yemen service is S9+15
into UTwente, Arabic, no jamming or other noise. Ditto at 1756 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Aug 21 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
S9+20/30 direct and the other 3 audible; preview second topic about
preserving the Iberian wolf. 2202 news leads with killings of children
in Toledo, hate crimes; 31 women have been murdered in Spain by
spouses or exes; M-pox; 117-year-old woman dies. 2207 first feature is
about rights of victims` families vs media portrayals of ``true
crimes``. What a downer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 21 at 2158, no signal direct from VOT English,
but *2200 JBA S6/S7, unusable, so over to SPAIN. 2205, 11785 is off,
gave up, nor heard later in hour even unto UTwente. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2256 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
August 20 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+5/15 but noisy direct.

6160.000+ at S9/+10 and 3975.002+, S9+10/15 into UTwente.

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

** U S A. 9930, Aug 20 at 2329, this WTWW with TOMBS is off already,
tho had been on earlier at 2211. Now NO WTWW frequencies are on air;
nor after 0100 does 5920 appear.

George McClintock sends me this the morning of Aug 21: ``WTWW: SW100
belts --- Glenn, The SW100 Harris #3 transmitter lost 2 drive belts
that allow control of the IPA and plate motors. Spares were replaced
and are now working fine. The last SW100 problem is the error light
that stays on preventing the high voltage from being applied.  I have
not been able to correct this problem YET.`` {with photos} {2 minutes
later:} ``The IPA driver and the plate tune motor belts being
replaced. Not an easy job.
George McClintock 8-21-2024``

Circa 1830 Aug 21 he needs me to monitor as he attempts to bring
transmitter up on 9930; may not be getting accurate frequency
readouts. I get a big blob of extreme distortion circa 9790-9795,
confirmed as WTWW when he cuts modulation momentarily. Correlates with
a JBA carrier on 9475 when he is trying to come up there. Something is
very wrong with this other transmitter. But at 2130 he notifies me
that he did get ``5`` to come up, presumably 5085, so WOR could appear
as scheduled UT Saturday at 0300; but no telling what more might
happen in meantime. He says the other transmitter will be out for
maybe two weeks awaiting manufacture and shipment of replacement part
from Germany. Meanwhile he has built a backup studio at the site.
Another check about 2230 and 2355: no signals on 5085, 5920, 9475 or
9930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0037 UT August 22
