** BOTSWANA. 5925, Sept 14 at 0412, rock music, poor signal, need LSB
tuning to minimize the hash from 5935 WWCR. EiBi shows it`s merely VOA
English at 0300-0500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 14 at 0411, R. Rebelde is OFF rather than merely
dead air. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 14 at 0414, RHC English S9+30/40 but distorted.
Unfound on any other frequency such as 9700 or 15230. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 3955 & 6070, Sept 14 at 1915, Channel 292 with `From
the Isle of Music` featuring classical music for a change; that sure
is nice. From Cubadisco 2024 award winners. I notice that the two
frequencies are several sex out of synch, why?: 6070.001+ and
3955.002- both S9/+10 and equally noisy into UTwente with considerable
fading. At least in synch mode, 3955 has intermittent het but can`t
locate it to a specific frequency by side-tuning. Need to narrow
bandwidth, unfortunately. 1933 inserts Ch 292 IDs in German and
Spanish by YL voice, AI? She also solicits more funding for more power
and/or more than monthly programs. It seems UBill is playing
commercial - pardon the expression, recordings with labels, in what
format, CD? Repeats at 2300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, Sept 14 at 0418, pirate YHWH is JBA with
undermodulated talk, S8/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 780, Sept 14 at 0401, WBBM is getting heavy
rock music QRM, must be cheating DAYTIMER, KSPI Stillwater, better on
E/W loop than N/S shortwire. I try to // translator on 94.3 into
DX-398, but tropo is up from Kansas, Bott owning channel. Still at
0419, S9+10. (I do get the real separately programed KSPI-FM on 93.7
with RDS stuck at tune in: ``ILLWATER``, indeed! later scrolls to
``STILLWATER`S SPI 93.7``). Back to 780 at 0648, still rock vs WBBM,
and 0651 ``94.3, Stillwater`s alternative`` non-ID, so that clinches
it. I assume they also stillcall themselves ``Pete 94.3`` after the
OSU ``Pistol Pete`` politically incorrect mascot. Perhaps only a
campus shooting there would make them reconsider. Anyhow, licensed as
D1 250 watts -- ND daytime ONLY. WBBM is ruined here but the
Stillwaterians are totally blocked from hearing one of few genuine
all-news stations remaining (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Sept 14 at 0713, JBA carrier, obviously SIBC
in absence of 5025 Cuba. Might become listenable if I were up later.
Honiara sunset today is 0717 and near-equatorial, varies little during
year, 0708/0735 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2260 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday September 14 at 0300 on WTWW 5085, VG direct. As usual
followed by about a minute of music before cutoff 0330* without ID or
sign-off announcement.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 0955 the 0930 on WRMI 9455,
S5/S8 direct: can only check this one when I happen to awaken during
that semihour.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1441 the 1430 on SW Gold
Radio, Germany, 6160.000+, S9 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1600 on WRN North America
webcast. There is always a several-second pause between their intro
and my start; not a problem but I wonder why, as there is no initial
deadair on my files.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1737 the 1730 on SW Gold
Radio, Germany, S9/+5 on 6160.000- with ACI from 6165; and S9+5/10 on
3975.002+ into Utwente.

Also confirmed Saturday September 14 at 1930 on WRMI webcast only, and
WRN North America webcast.

** U S A. 880, Sept 14 at 0655, Mexmx again in the mix with WHSQ, KRVN
and English gospel huxter, probably KHAC AZ/NM. 0702 non-ID ``La
Tremenda`` so it`s WIJR, Highland IL, slogan as in NRC AM Log, U4
1700/160 from just east of St Louis MO, day and night patterns toward
SW, away from NYC - yes, always an obstacle to WCBS here, but now it
no longer matters! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 760.06 approx., Sept 14 at 0407 LAH = low audible
heterodyne on plus side of 760.0 stations like WJR/KCCV. Nothing
nearly that far off in mwoffsets list (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 14 at 0353:
only 855 in full 9/kHz bandscan, and it`s really JJBBA, presumably
SPAIN. So many of the UK and Spain MWs are deceased or depowered.
MWlist still shows 9 RNE synchros here up to 100 kW 24h but also
hipowers in Romania, Ethiopia, Sa`udi Arabia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 970, Sept 14 at 0359, Spanish dominant, mentions
``faul`` so a béisbol game or sportstalk about it. In NRC AM Log, only
two USA SS listed, neither at all likely, silent in Florida or
religious in Maryland. So Mexico: IRCA Mexican Log has four, headed by
Radio Fórmula flagship XERFR Mexico City, 50/5 kW and only one other
maybe, XEJ Juárez, Chihua2, 1/1 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6938 AM, Sept 14 at 0416, S9/+10 open carrier. Is it a
pirate or a ute? Nothing currently in HF Underground. Ricky Leong,
Alberta, also had this Sept 9 at 0503 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
