** BRAZIL. 28485 USB, Oct 16 at 2210, PY3PR calling CQDX and making
quick contacts in English with US hams. QRZ.com: ``PY3PR Brazil flag
Brazil, Paulo R. Ferreira, py3pr@arrl.net, Xangri-lá, RS, Brazil. My
QTH is Xangri-lá, RS (GG 40), an atlantic seashore town in Southern
Brazil where I also enjoy bycicling and fishing`` -- once again, 10m
is replete with beacons; and phones, some of them working Parks On The
Air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHILE [and non]. 28472 USB, Oct 15 at 2206, CA3VAK, Víctor in
Santiago, contacting VA7LSA, also audible weaker. Already heard him
about the same time on Oct 11, 4 kHz lower, q.v. 10m is crammed with
beacons and phone, 11m CB full of QRM from all those skippers, many AM
on inexact het frequencies.

Must be the October peak. I spend some time bandscanning above 30 MHz
for broadcast harmonix of 5, 6, 15 MHz bands, as well as below 30 for
9 MHz harmonix x 3, especially in the 28.5+ MHz range which is still
mostly vacant of hams; but nothing. Even if propagation be possible,
there are so few fundamentals anymore from Latin America. I also keep
checking 35790 for Martí 3 x 11930 which did make it to Alberta, but
no luck here where sporadic E would do it. But I urge others to be
alert for such breakthrus (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA [and non]. 10125 CW, Oct 16 at 0622, HK3QQ, keyboard
alfabet with usual errors and ID. Also traces of USB, no doubt the
Australian hams (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 11965, Oct 15 at 2221, S9+10/20 in Japanese talk so strong
that I suspect Madagascar relay, which is on 11965 at 20-21 but with
MWV/WCB. HFCC shows at 2100-2300, NHK direct from Yamata, 300 kW at
235 degrees for SE Asia = Myanmar to Philippines to Indonesia.
Directly off the back would be 55 degrees toward Sacramento and across
Mexico, while we are at about 45 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, Oct 15 at 2219, JBA presumed Hikari FM,
pirate supposedly in Sonora next to Arizona, also reported about every
day at wide hours by Rick Barton, AZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Tue Oct 15 it`s Sefarad/Ladino day on SNR at 2200, VG
S9+20/30 direct and also not off the air on 17715, 15520 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Oct 16 at 2200, token English from SNR, good
direct and better than 17715, 15520; 15390 still AWOL. Missed
interview topic but at 2219 ``near the end`` so contact info mixed
with brief mailbagish acknowledgements to several listeners, until
2221, then music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.006+, Oct 15 at 2200, VOT s/on, S9+10/20 direct with
some flutter. 2234 into UTwente when measured, VG S9+45, `Weekly
Commentary` ending at 2235, music. 2240 `Turkey`s Geomarked Products`
about mincemeat, music. 2251 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2253 s/off
as if it`s the 1230 on 17620. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2254
IS briefly to chop 2254.5* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.014-, Oct 16 at *2200.4 direct, JBA signal cuts on
but off by 2202* so assuming VOT in another try-but-fail. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler.  However, recheck at 2216, now it`s on at
S9+10/20 but insufficient vs noise level; and into UTwente at 2233
when measured, higher offset than usual, maybe different transmitter,
S9+5/15 even there instead of usual blaster, poor and ``hollow``
sounding (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2264 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
October 15 at 2330 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.00+, S9/+15 into
UTwente.
