** ALGERIA. 13639.998+, Nov 18 at 2009 into UTwente, Arabic S9+10/15,
listed as Béchar site of TDA on 13640, but insufficient direct. We
really miss 17600 which in A24 ran very long hours, but now in B24
only in local mornings until when? HFCC has exaggerated registrations
one hour at a time even if no difference from one to another,
including now 13640, and where nothing heard, 13790 and 17600 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 7430.068 approx., Nov 18 at 2317, strangely strong S9+30
Khmer direct; it`s CRI via Nanning site, 100 kW at 200 degrees. Must
be grayline shortpath if not longpath. 2354 checking Hanoi SDR when
measured once calibration adjusted against 10000, rather weak until
2357*. Probably too close to Nanning, 323 km, but good skip distance
1302 km to Phnom Penh. Nanning to Enid: 12879 km = 8 kilomiles (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 1040 kHz, Nov 18 at 0726 UT, whooper/wobbler
audible under WHO, presumably only one listed, defective 10 kW R.
Mayabeque, Güines (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 13709.949, Nov 18 at 2006, algo JBA S7 into UTwente,
MWV per HFCC in Arabic, 100 kW at 355 degrees, so way off-frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Nov 18 at 2300, token English from SNR not off the
air, S9+20/30 direct and even sufficient on PL-660 with telescopic,
also audible on 12030, 17715, not 17755. Preview a festival in London.
2303 news leads with protests against corruption, 2306 about Cervantes
award. 2311 contact info including email which has not replied yet to
my inquiry and anomalies. 2312 interview about a festival starting Nov
20 in London of queer literature, not only in Spanish, but also
Catalan, Basque, Galician. That`s rather specialized. Google translate
is no help with ``queer`` into Spanish with the same neutral or even
positive connotation as in enlightened English (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 9610, Sun Nov 18 at 2130, JBA signal into
UTwente, maybe VOT English which is normally sufficient off the back;
propagation degraded. So not a chance to hear `Letterbox` yet. 5960.003+, Sun Nov 18 at 2259, VOT English, S9+10/20 into UK SDR I
have running to check 3975, s/on as if 1330 on 13635. Then over to
UTwente where measured, S9+20/30 with humroar and 6CI as Efsun the
axentuated reads the olds, and sports until 2317 `Weekly Analysis`
about increased Zionist influence on the *rump admn, ``penned`` by
John somebody - quill, fountain or ballpoint? 2322
``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2328 ``a-b-y-s`` again! and
`Letterbox` with Efsun so hard to understand despite her careful
attempts to read from a script. 1) perennial Jayanta Chakroborty, New
Delhi, logged 11/9 on 7285. 2) Rimantas? asks if they plan to use DRM?
Not now but maybe. 3) Canada, heard 45444. 4) Kouji ---, Japan.
Turkish music pause. 5) ``finally`` Paul? from S Australia who listens
to Chinese. 2335 more music. 2341 ``turning to a topic``,
lifelong-learning such as by listening to VOT. 2345 `L`box` outro.
2346 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music. 2351 headlines. 2353 s/off
as if the 1330 on 13635: something`s always awry at Ankara, and IS
briefly to 2354* uncovering the 6CI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, Mon Nov 18 at 2258 past 2315 several chex direct, no
signal from VOT English, but algo on 9610, the 2130 broadcast
overrunning? Can`t recognize anything in JBA signal. 2327 into
UTwente, no TRT, just Chinese on 5960 and presumed Mongolian on 9610.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 379 MCW kHz, Nov 18 at 0552 UT, DL, 50-Watt ND beacon at
DuLuth MN, ``Pykla`` nickname per RNA list. Last logged Feb 4, 2024
and definitely not RU on 379 in Arkansas. PyKla is also a Python user
group in Kampala, of course (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2269 monitoring: Confirmed Sunday
November 17 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.998- kHz, S8/S9
into UTwente with 5/second beepery ACI from 1321 - a local problem?
Not audible on other SDRs in Netherlands, Germany. Also confirmed Sunday November 17 at 2158 the 2130 on SW Radio,
Germany, JBA into UK SDR as not making it to UTwente, too close in
degraded prop. Also confirmed Sunday November 17 at 2330 on WRMI 7780 instead of
still silent 7570 for the fourth week, S6/S8 into Maryland SDR but at
2337, S9+5/10 into S Texas SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday November 18 at 0030, on WRMI 7780, S9+10/20

S7/S9 into EI6IZ Ireland SDR, after JBA at UTwente: propagation, or

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, Nov 18 at 1628, JBA signal surely WRMI. Current
skedgrid for System B shows until 1630*, then internet-only until
*2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) THE TINY TRAP Leslie Stahl introducing an otherwise excellent piece about BHUTAN on
CBS` 60 MINUTES really a sesquihour, at 0135 UT Nov 18 diminishes it
as ``tiny``. Really, the area of Bhutan - as if flat?? is 19,505.263
times the area of MONACO, which really is tiny. Duh. This report despatched at 0257 UT November 19
