** CANADA. 300 MCW kHz, Dec 2 at 0748 UT, dash and YIV, 500-watt ND
beacon at Island Lake, MB - so one more Canadian not yet
decommissioned (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6180, Dec 2 at 0238, huge S9+30/40 dead air in
Mandarin from CRI via Quivicán, but JBA Spanish underneath, i.e. La
Voz Alegre, MWV MADAGASCAR, an incredible example of frequency
mismanagement. If one didn`t know about this, might think it were JBM
in Spanish only from RadioCuba, where something`s always wrong (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 1050 kHz, Dec 2 at 0730, song with refrain to the tune of
``Yes, we have no bananas``, word sounds like ``Vibanana`` which could
also be interpreted as ``Viva Nana``, on XEG ``La Ranchera de
Monterrey`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 267 MCW kHz, Dec 2 at 0747, HET, ND beacon at Henryetta,
ID barely copiable, and better if tuned to 265.5 USB, as off-tuning is
sometimes the key (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1670.05 approx., Dec 2 at 2011 UT, JBA carrier direct to
home rx; after 2115 I return to the US 81/412 intersexion where I
first had good signal a biday ago from Virtual DJ Radio - and there
it is again, apparently a different DJ, as per the website they have a
large roster of them - the deal being that once installing some
software, anyone can play DJ without having to get a job at a real
radio station. With the DX-398 in hand, I DF it at first as definitely
NE/SW, then driving back and forth and around, it seems to be more
westerly than easterly, but with lots of noise in various blox, do not
manage to get a  direxional fix on it from a different angle. And
driving around the busiest intersexion at rush hour and with low sun
in eyes is not a good idea. Maybe if it`s not too cold some midday
with plenty of time, I`ll pursue it afoot (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA [and non]. 7220, Dec 2 at 2302, RRI English is almost
sufficient with USB tuning vs a ham on 7220 LSB, who sounds oblivious
to all the QRoM he`s getting. In this case RRI is not an intruder as
it`s aimed away from the Americas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 2 at 2230, REE NAm frequency is off again, while
the other three remain, 12030, 17715, 17755. At 2300, 12030 backwards
for ME is S9+10/20 direct but insufficient vs same local noise level.
At 2317 into UTwente, 12030.001- is JBA S6/S7. Finally try Maryland
SDR, where it is sufficient S6/S8 vs lower noise level there, in some
medical discussion (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 9610, Sun Dec 1 at 2130-2145+, NO VOT signal into
UTwente, likely off the air instead of toward S Asia.

5960.003, Sun Dec 1 at 2259, VOT not off the air, IS and English ID,
S9+30/40 into UTwente, s/on as if 1330 on 13635, something`s always
awry at Ankara, and into olds. 2313 ending `Weekly Analysis`, 2314
`Letterbox` with another host, sounds much like Halil, but a guy who
says he last did it in 2008y. Could I understand his name? Or course
not. 1) Vilnius, Lithuania, someone wants to know if VOT has or will
test DRM. No answer yet from engineering dept, at least host did a
little research, but there was a DAB test from Istanbul in 2021 [i.e.
VHF not HF]. 2) Harald Süss, Austria, with three follow-ups for QSLs;
I notice the 6CI underneath. 2318 break for song, why? Relief from not
much talk? 2322, 3) Siddartha ---, wants lotsa swag, but politely
refused due to ``problems with acquisitions``. Notes that 14/11 was
World Diabetes Day, tnx for reminder and ``Merry Xmas`` forth and
back. 4) Christer Brunström, Sweden, who`s called almost every week;
says he was a teacher for 40 years, now retired and wrote a book.
Discussing Turkish alfabet reform of 1928 - was a Swedish philologist
involved? Host can`t find any, but will research further if he has a
name. 5) Chris Makouth??, Canada, not getting QSLs due to postal
strike there, but they`ll send him another one anyway. This program
was not live because there will be a TRT International Forum in I`bul
Nov 29-30 and a VOT team is going there to help with translations,
etc. 2328 another song. 2332 finally `Lbox` theme outro, then jazz. I
retune just in time to hear IS & ID in German, then chop at 2356*.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.016, Mon Dec 2 at 2259, VOT not off the air, IS and
English ID, S9+20/30 direct. Into UTwente at 2317 when measured,
S9+25/35 but heavier CCCCCCI than usual. 2321 music, 2328 `That`s Why`
on history of cameras, at first ``camera was a room``; music. 2353
s/off as if 1330 on 13635, IS to 2354*. Something`s always awry at
Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5800 & 5850, UT Mon Dec 2 at 0233, WRMI with Ray Robinson

Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1670, Dec 2 at 0744 UT, ``Macon BIN 1670``, i.e. WMGE Dry

few blox away, especially at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
