** KUWAIT. 7590, March 10 at 0613, JBA music. EiBi shows R. Farda at
0230-0830 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 8828 USB, March 10 until 0625* mostly numerical by
monotone OM voice, ``--? VOLMET, out``. EiBi shows Auckland starting
at :20 and :50 past the hours, 24h timeshared with Kong Kong at :15,
:45; Tokyo at :10, :40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Tropo is up, with Tulsa/Okmulgee/Eufaula UHF TV sigs
decoding for first time in long time, and most `open` channels have at
least BAD signals into Zenith STB from my rooftop antenna still
permanently aimed SSE toward OKC, March 10 at 1552, including: RF 28 =
Ion 44-1; RF 31 OETA 3-1 = KOET; RF 20 KQCW-HD 19-1; and RF 28 KJRH
2-11. KJRH is NBC affil, originally KVOO-TV, but what`s it doing on
this obscure sub-channel? Soon fades below decoding level. I would not
have noticed it tuning by RF channels, but at virtual 2 it came up.
Strangely enough, searching rabbitears.info on KJRH calls shows it
only on RF8 as 02-1. RF 28 is axually KTPX-TV Okmulgee, virtual 44 for
ION. If you bring that one up, it does show KJRH as 2-11. BTW, this
Zenith set-top-box DTV converter must be left on all the time. If
turned off or a power failure, it`s tough to get it to turn back on
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9610.018-, Sunday March 9 at 2201, S9+35/40 into UTwente,
well above annoying ChiCom Mongolian CCI of CNR8, VOT English amid
music break, 2204 `Letterbox` continues with one from Bangladesh,
names Turkey`s best university. 2207 Liam? Spencer, USA, 15-year-old
from Colorado, heard 6125. Hostess glad to hear from such a young SWL,
implying SW is not dead yet. 2209 Jayanta Chakraborty, north India,
``Dear Sir``, plugs freedom of religion in India; she distances
herself from a commentary on Mon & Wed which is translated from TRT
World website opinion sexion, not originated by VOT or its English
dept. 2222 ``that`s a wrap``, hostess names herself, sounds like
``Jamie`` but probably not, and closing song. 2216 `LBox` theme/outro
as there is briefly some OTH radar? cliQRM until 2219.5, no more.
``always-by-your-side`` promo, 2217 song. 2222 TRTVOTVorld.com promo,
music. 2225 s/off as if 1330 on 13635, and 9 notes of IS before chop
2226* uncovering CNR8. I miss the next repeat if it succeeded, circa 2320 on 5960, so plan to
catch the first part of L`Box on final repeat circa 0415 on
6125/7285. Indeed, I do, tuning in a bit earlier via UTwente to 6125.004+, S9+45,
perfect reception, in strength, modulation quality, no QRM, better
than sufficient // 7285.018-, S9+5/15. March 10 at 0416 a commentary
about Sa`udi influence and policies concerning tribes in Syria and the
Levant; outro as by an international relations expert, name not
understood. Then program outro as `The Pulse of Turkish Foreign
Policy`. 0420.5 music. 0424 TRTVOTVOrld.com promo in 41 {sic; more
added?} languages, and `Letterbox` theme, opening. 0425 YL hostess
says Ramadan started a week ago and is still getting used to fasting
all day, and feels less energetic since she can`t have any coffee or
tea - sounds fine and awake to me. 0425 Siddartha ---, reported 3-8
Feb at 1730, SINPOs all 44444: how many NGOs in Turkey? 122, relying
on donations, also some state support. Malik -- --, Pakistan: glowing
review of VOT. 0429 got email from EBU about ticket competition? for
Eurovision Song Contest, Basel in May. She always enjoyed it as a
child. Turkey not participating for a few years, a loss. Song quality
not that good, but fun like a party. 0430 music break: Anatolian pop
rock, names not understood - sounds like a scratchy vinyl at start.
0435 wanted to resume ``question of the month`` but manager nixed it.
Next, about what is the largest university in Turkey? by km2, by
number of students, but the best academically is a private one, name
not understood - etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 8782, March 10 at 0622 tune-in, few words by YL in SSB,
``Forecast center``? Then Morse code ID once as KFS and off. Could
call it CW, but was still tuned to exactly 8782.0 where SSB was clear.
Klingenfuß 2022 says it`s channel 822 for coast stations, QSX 8258,
but no KFS, only EQJ, PPR and XSQ. EiBi shows 8782, 24h for KFS, Rio
Vista CA, and also 24h XSQ Guangzhou (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2285 monitoring: confirmed Sunday

to 1530 in DST season, ex-until 1630 in ST season (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR0 ** U S A. 15150, March 10 at 1537, WMLK infested by unstable spurs
circa +/- 4X kHz, at least 15142, 15146, 15154, 15158, much like the
17525 galaxy before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, March 10 at 0613, JBA signal presumed R. Vanuatu and
still not on 9960. Due to the imposition of DST I shall probably be
monitoring more in the 06 UT hour than the 07+ (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 810.57 kHz, March 10 at 0554 UT, JBA carrier detectable
again aside 810 WHB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 4200, 4800, 5100, 5400, March 10 at 0325 past 0405, and
0549-0601 UT, pips/beeps/carriers on and off at regular odd intervals
amounting to about 26X per minute on frequencies exactly 300 kHz
apart. Something never heard before. Details: 0325, found first on 4800.00 during bandscan; still past 0405. At 0407
found also on 5100, but fraxion of a second delayed using two rx, but
maybe because of different DSP delays in rx. And soon also on 5400
which is synched with 5100. Then I check other +/- 300 kHz spots for
this: NOT on 4200, 4500, 5700. Suspended chex 0416 as it`s almost time
for V of Turkey `Letterbox`, q.v. 0549 resume checking direct: 4800, 5100 and 5400, the latter with
almost double-pips, two sites? Now ALSO on 4200, but NOT on: 3900,
3600, 3300, 3000, 2700; 6000, 6300, 6600. At 0557: NOT on 4200, 4500,
but YES on: 4800, 5100, 5400. Not expecting any break for ToH ID at
0600, but listening just in case: NONE on 4800, 5100, 5400. So, what`s
going on here? Of course, nothing to be heard at next check in daytime
1545 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7725 CW, March 10 at 0616 UT, weak beeps at 24/minute,
related or not to the even 300 kHz intervals? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 8918 USB, March 10 at 0626, ATC comms, mentions 0625,
how copy? EiBi shows shared among Gander, New York and Piarco =
Trinidad (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1943 UT March 10
