** CANADA. 328 MCW kHz, April 1 at 0647 UT, dash and YTL, 1000-watt
NDB at Big Trout Lake ON; I was tuned to 329 and hearing only this
instead of usual PMV, 25 watts at Plattsmouth NE. Canadians in? One
other JBA now, of course:
346 MCW kHz, April 1 at 0649, YXL, 1000 watts at Sioux Lookout ON.
BTW, these two are 438 km = 272 stmi apart in almost the same direxion
from here, YTL being the further one closer to Hudson Bay, on the
shore of the lake called Big Trout Lake, which is 2034 km = 1264 stmi
from here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 1549.82 or .83, April 1 at 0700, still hearing that het
against 1550 stations, presumed XEREL Morelia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. Fixing typo in first frequency entry, not 29182+ of course:
28182+ CW, March 31 at 2207, beacon, dash and VVV XE1RCS/B. This one
also missing from WGB list! But QRZ.com: ``XE1RCS Mexico flag Mexico,
Radio Club Satélite A.C., Apartado Postal 341-A, Ciudad Satélite,
Naucalpan, Edo Mex 53100, Mexico`` and: ``XE1RCS beacons on 28.182 and
50.019 Mhz. now transmiting from new site, Cerro Gordo about 70 kms.
northeast from Mexico City. This new site, Cerro Gordo is about 3100
mts. above sea level, near Teotihuacan piramids. The site is owned by
Radio Club Satelite. XE1RCS/B on 28.182 Mhz. has an AR-10 antenna with
8 watts, and on 50.019 has an AR-6 with 50 watts. All the antennas are
mounted in a 40 mts. tower with surge protection and battery backup``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9875.005+, April 1 at 2044, VOT on registered A25 frequency
instead of 9870 yesterday which evaded Korea North on 9875 - don`t
detect it today, but its s/off anyway is 2050. 2048 `First Quarter of
the Millennium` to 2057 then music. Sufficient into UTwente.
11785.002, next VOT English of 2200 is not off the air, not checked
until 2234 April 1, S9+5/10 into Maryland SDR, with feature voiced by
Efsun the axentuated. Considerably weaker than 11780 Brasil, S9+10/25
providing ACI, not even evitable by USB tuning. 2354 s/off as if it
were 1230 on 17620, the usual always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. Some not-always-audible NDBs, besides the two from CANADA,
q.v.:
392 MCW kHz, April 1 at 0652, FMZ, 25 watts at `Beklof` Fairmont NE;
and:
400 MCW kHz, April 1 at 0653 UT, AHQ, 0 watts = unknown default, at
Wahoo NE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2288 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday April 1 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S6/S8 into Maryland SDR.
Also confirmed Tuesday April 1 at 1311 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9
direct and undermodulated.
Also confirmed Tuesday April 1 at 1411 & 1423 the 1400 on WRMI 9955,
S6/S9 JBA direct.
Also confirmed Tuesday April 1 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.996+, S9 into UTwente but with considerable ACI from 1314 or
1332, not investigated. Next:
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;

Financial support appreciated for our non-commercial public service
program: thanks for a contribution from Philip Erickson, ``for support
of SWL and WOR from a listener since 1977``, via PayPal in US funds
but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com
One may also contribute via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser,
P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7780, April 1 at 0640, and 5010, April 1 at 0644, these
WRMIs are off again, while 5950 is ON with TOMBS // 5850. Something`s
odd at Okeechobee.
15770, April 1 at 0641, this WRMI is not only on, but surprisingly
strong in the nightmiddle, S9+10 in Spanish about Checa, so R. Praga
Internacional relay? No, Eslovaquia is sked every night at 0630-0700
on System H, with Prague in English at 0600-0630 Mon & Tue only (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1530 kHz, April 1 at 0618 UT, Spanish CCI to WCKY, ID as on
``104.9 y 95.1, La Que Manda``, so it`s KZNX Creedmoor TX; U7
10000/220. I previously discussed its complex two-transmitter-sites
near Austin. NRC AM Log gives only slogan as ``La Raza``. Of course we
cannot be certain one slogan have totally replaced the other. WTFDA
FMDB gets no hits when searching only on KZNX in the Relay of: field.
One must enter instead KZNX 1530, getting only KTXX-FM on 104.9 in Bee
Cave. To get K236AY on 95.1 in Westlake Hills one must search Relay
of: on KZNX-1530 with the hyphen! Needs to be a bit more forgiving of
such details or more consistent. In WTFDA it`s also only ``La Raza``.
On 1530 I was really checking for the unID bluegrass/country music I
had been hearing QRMing WCKY, but not tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1650 kHz, April 1 at 0701 UT, still hearing continuous tone
of about 311 Hz, presumably from KSVE El Paso TX (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 1670 kHz, April 1 at 0655 UT, ``Black Information Network``,
i.e. WMGE Dry Branch GA, address in Macon. No problem overcoming
Virtual DJ Radio LP relay in Enid which is JBA in daytime a couple
miles away (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BELIZE. 28258 CW, March 31 at 2210, VVV DE V31HQ/B and EEEEEEEEEE -
WGB list: ``28258.0 V31HQ/B - Belmopan BLZ EK57nf - #0/1 (22 Mar 2025)
Note: VVV ID + grid + E × 10 - Pwr 10w``. QRZ.com: ``V31HQ Belize flag

The Belize Amateur Radio Club shack (V31HQ) has burned down. Nobody
was injured, however Andre V31DL (owner of the shack) has lost ALL
equipment. If you would like to help the rebuilding of V31HQ please
donate via the Donate button on the BARC website at https://barc.bz
Thanks for your generous help`` - that was almost 4 years ago; now
with long list of contributors (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 6180-, April 1 at 0147, too weak and off-frequency, so to
11780 for much-publicized new English & Spanish segments from RNA.
S8+5/25 direct with deep fading. It`s already in Spanish, apparently a
saludos call from someone about the Spanish about to start. Brazuguese
DJ replies and says good-night. 0148 YL ID in English, interview with
someone in Pará in November, about the culture of Pará and Amazonia.
Voice-over translation, with PP QRM in the background! Please, SW
reception is hard enough without self-QRM. We`ll trust you to be
translating accurately! Besides, even a native could not follow the
underspeech, just loud enough to be annoying. 0153 ID as Radio
Nacional Brasil International Service, Portuguese ID, Spanish,
apparently same topic, voice-over this time in Spanish with Brazilian
accent. 0157 pause for a few words of unobstructed Brazuguese, and
wrapup. 0157 Portuguese ID as RNB Serviço Internacional, and RNA on
6180, 11780, website, 980. 0158 R Nacional jingle and other music
until 0200 some other PP program. Well, we`re glad they are making the
effort to speak a bit of our language, but hope it improves (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GUADELOUPE. 28520 USB, March 31 at 2216, FG5GP, says 100 watts,
working an AA7 mobile. QRZ.com: ``FG5GP Guadeloupe flag Guadeloupe,
ALAIN ROBERT, 14 LOT LES COLIBRIS CONVENANCE, 97122 BAIE MAHAULT,
Guadeloupe`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 28171 CW, March 31 at 2205, beacon XE1FAS/B is JBA with
fades, preceded by 4 dashes. It`s missing from WGB, today`s update at
https://listof10mbeacon.blogspot.com/2023/06/worldwide-list-of-10-meter-beacon.html
How about the older WI5V list? That website is now intercepted as
unsafe. I know I`ve heard this one before, in 2022, 2023 and 2024, as
on Feb 28 last year, q.v.: he`s in Puebla with lots of info still at
https://www.qrz.com/db/XE1FAS
29182+ CW, March 31 at 2207, beacon, dash and VVV XE1RCS/B. This one
also missing from WGB list! But QRZ.com: ``XE1RCS Mexico flag Mexico,
Radio Club Satélite A.C., Apartado Postal 341-A, Ciudad Satélite,
Naucalpan, Edo Mex 53100, Mexico`` and: ``XE1RCS beacons on 28.182 and
50.019 Mhz. now transmiting from new site, Cerro Gordo about 70 kms.
northeast from Mexico City. This new site, Cerro Gordo is about 3100
mts. above sea level, near Teotihuacan piramids. The site is owned by
Radio Club Satelite. XE1RCS/B on 28.182 Mhz. has an AR-10 antenna with
8 watts, and on 50.019 has an AR-6 with 50 watts. All the antennas are
mounted in a 40 mts. tower with surge protection and battery
backup.``
28276 CW, March 31 at 2214, dash and XE1JAL/B. This one is on the WGB
list: ``28276.0 XE1JAL/B - Xalapa Veracruz MEX EK19mm - #0/1 (26 Mar
2025) Note: ID + grid + 3" carrier`` - and QRZ.com: ``XE1JAL Mexico
flag Mexico, Mario Rizo Campomanes, Calle Francisco Navarrete No. 8 -
B , Colonia Tamborrel, Xalapa - Enriquez, Veracruz, Codigo Postal
91050, Mexico`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15500, March 31 at 2159, NO signal on NF to N America from
SNR for first M/W/F token English broadcast of season. Like I said
yesterday, looking forward to 15520 as backup altho off the back
toward ME, and that one is S7/S9; but 17715 to S America is even
better, S9+20. And 15390 for Africa is also AWOL! Something`s always
notright at Noblejas. Opens with different music and A25 general
frequency schedule with no details of language times, not even
English! 2202 s/on English, preview later content I can`t copy; 2203
news leading with mining accident in Asturias killing at least 5
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, March 31 at 2158, VOT not off the air, S8/S9 but JBA
vs my local noise level, IS and English IDs, so I go over to SPAIN
instead as these two insist on colliding timewise. At 2238, 11785.006
is S9+20/30 into Georgia SDR, so not needing to check it at UTwente.
Uncomfortably close to 11780 Brasil (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 28243 CW, March 31 at 2209, VVV DE AA1SU/B and EEEEEE --
Unlike the Mexicans, this one does appear in the WGB list: ``28243.0
AA1SU/B - Essex Junction VT USA FN34°° - #0/1/2 (02 Mar 2025) Note:
VVV de AA1SU/B + FN34 VT + E × 6`` And QRZ.com: ``AA1SU/B USA flag
USA, PAUL N GAYET, 11 CHERRY STREET, ESSEX JUNCTION, VT 05452``
28249.5 CW, March 31 at 2210, DE KA3JOE/B and EEEEE. WGB list:
``28249.5 KA3JOE/BCN - Bensalem PA USA FN29mb - #0/2/3 (26 Mar 2025)
Note: de ID only + E × 5`` QRZ.com: ``KA3JOE USA flag USA, Joseph W
Ciesielski, 1176 Poquessing Avenue, ANDALUSIA, PA 19020 - WELCOME TO
THE KA3JOE BEACON !! Thanks for tuning in! The KA3JOE beacon operates
continuously on a frequency of 28.248.7 Mhz, at a power level of 5
watts.The transmitter is an HTX-10 fed into a half wave vertical at a
height of 10 meters. I would perfer a good, old fashioned, tree
killing, non-electronic QSL, SASE to my QRZ address, but I will also
respond with an email promptly. It's more fun to receive QSL Cards in
the regular mail. I have been interested in radio since I was 12 years
old. Like many, I started out on CB radio but got bored of that scene
quickly. I then discovered cars, girls, work, etc. and got
side-tracked. Finally, getting licensed at the age of 36 I rekindled
my interest in radio and have been playing with it ever since. Thanks
again for tuning in to the KA3JOE 10 METER BEACON @ 28.248.7 MHZ
Please QSL, SASE to my QRZ address. Thank You & 73 Joe``
I`m afraid I had it on the plus side of 28249 like in WGB list, not on
the minus side as in his QRZ.com page (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2288 monitoring: confirmed Monday

P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5800, April 1 at 0104, and still 0111, this WRMI is dead
air. All others are modulating some somewhat underish: 5010, 5050,
5850, 5950, 7570, 7730, 7780, 9395, 9455, 9955, 15770. Even if only
one human be overhearing them, even remotedly, you`d think there would
be silence-sensors to warn immediately of such a breakdown. WRMI-10 is
supposed to be on System H at 0100-0130 daily with R. Taiwán
Internacional. 0147 still dead air, Slovakia sked this semihour (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, April 1 at 0107, WRNO is off again tonight. What`s
wrong? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 2749 USB, March 31 at 0635, YL marine weather JBA in noise
level, nothing on 2598. Extensive sked at
https://www.ccg-gcc.gc.ca/publications/mcts-sctm/ramn-arnm/part2-eng.html
shows nothing on 2749 at this hour, i.e. between starts at 0437 by VCF
Les Escoumins, and 0740 UT by VCO Port Caledonia. Similar in EiBi. So
now I`m wondering if the whole sked be really an hour earlier after
the imposition of DST, or is this an urgent special unscheduled (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 11880, Mar 31 at 0113 check into Maryland SDR,
KBSWR in Spanish is still on second day of A25 despite missing from
own schedule, Woofferton relay presenting K-pop, VG S9+5/15 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 13690, March 31 at 0620, sports on BBCWS, S8/S9;
obviously relay of RNZN via RNZP (Glenn Hauser OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. Sunday March 30, first day of A25, checking REE new
frequencies at 2214 in Spanish, which would be amid English on M/W/F:
into Maryland SDR, 15500 S9+10/20 for us; 15520 S8/9+5 almost as good
off the back for ME; 17715 S7/S9 for S America; but no signal on 15390
for Africa - I casually checked a couple hours earlier, and I think
15390 was on then. Look forward to 15520 as backup for inevitable
failures of 15500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 9874.967, Sun Mar 30 at 2048 tune-in via UTwente,
all I hear are the last few notes of the North Korean national anthem.
This is about when `Letterbox` from Voice of Turkey should be
appearing on its new A25 frequency 9875 and time ex-an hour later on
9610. It`s KCBS as in B24 Aoki until 2050*, never, of course in HFCC.
VOT off to a great start. O, Wolfgang Bueschel says VOT was axually on
9870 :Somethings always erroneous at Emirler: but in this case a good
idea to avoid DPRK.
11785, Sun Mar 30 at 2200 tune-in, new A25 frequency and time for VOT
English to N America. Quite a strong signal with VOT news sounder,
then gone! Drops off the air, and never comes back during following
hour. Off to another even ``greater`` start. Next chance: 0315~ UT
Monday on 7275 thisaway and 6165 thataway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 7275, UT Mon Mar 31 at 0302 tune-in, VOT new A25 time and
frequency for W N America, dead air at S9+35 into UTwente and off* in
a few seconds, never to return during hour. This keeps happening, why?
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Then retune to 6165.002 which goes thataway, S9+10/25 and noisy, much
inferior, also with RTTY warble on minus side, so USB tuning
absolutely required. After olds, 0314 retune, brief transmission
break, and TRTVOTVorld.com promo; 0315 `The Pulse of Turkish Foreign
Policy`, yawn. 0323 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 0329
`Letterbox` theme, opening. Same YL host, frequencies changed, ask for
details by email. It`s also Eid, first day of end of Ramadan. 1)
Angus? -?, Canada. 2) Christer Brunström, Sweden, who is surprised
there was no mention of the arrest of mayor of Istanbul, and
demonstrations. She claims they *did* report it on Wednesday in
English and all other broadcasts, and some excuse about this being an
external service? 3) Siddartha ---, 24/3 anniversary of something,
maybe polio vaccine? Incidence of something in Turkey. 0336 song
break. 4) at 0340, Mohammed -- from Malaysia. 5) Jayanta Chakraborty,
India {even he is uncertain of spelling: in dxindia posts also as
Chakrabarty}. 6) and last, -- Kelly, USA. Most or all of them request
QSLs. 0344 song. 0348 `L`Box` theme outro, music. 0352 s/off - missed
what time and frequency they misannounced, likely 1230 on 17620. 0353
IS to 0356* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U K O G B A N I [non]. 9915, March 31 at 0616, English S5/S7, BBC?
Yes, //9410 about the same. 9915 is a longtime BBCWS channel but had
not been hearing it in B24 season. Now in A25 it`s scheduled *only*
for this one hour, via ASCENSION, 125 kW at 65 degrees. 9410 is also
ASC at 05-07, 27 degrees. 125 kW powers must be semi-transmitters
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also NEW ZEALAND
** U S A. 8992 USB, March 31 at 1543, long alfanumeric fonetik crypto
message military exercise, ending with ``This is Vulnerable, out``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. CBS TV 60 MINUTES, March 30 about 2355 UT as the second of
three stories after a late start, is about VOA, interviewing Steve
Herman, and Patsy W-, the Indonesian lady. And later the only
Republican congressperson, of Korean heritage, who objects to Trump`s
assassination of VOA. Briefly Dan Robinson`s name can be seen on a
screen shot of the WH website crediting him with denouncing it as
``radical``. Should be available online from CBS or YT later if you
missed it. I alerted the WOR iog about this in advance. Yes, here it
is already, two hours later, 13-minute audiovideo and transcript:
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/voice-of-america-journalists-speak-out-trump-shutdown-60-minutes-transcript/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2288 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
March 30 at 2130 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975.002+, S9+5/10 into
UTwente.
Also confirmed Sunday March 30 at 2330 on WRMI 7780, S7/9+5 into
Maryland SDR, but instead of usual // on 7570, something else there,
seems like TOMBS. 7780 at 2342 also into S TX SDR, S9+15/30 with storm
crashes. At 2344 I am also getting WOR on 7570 into S Texas, S9+10/20,
but further chex of other remotes find WOR NOT on 7570. Maybe I am
confused by switching among too many Kiwis at once? Or WRMI is
switching back and forth, unlikely. Anyhow, WRMI skedgrid shows 7570
supposed to be on System G at this hour, but System G thinx it`s only
on 9395. WOR still shows at 2330 Sunday on System D, WRMI-13 7780.
What a confusing situation.
Also confirmed UT Monday March 31 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+35 into S
Texas SDR.
Also confirmed UT Monday March 31 from 0300 sharp on Area 51 webcast,
whilst 5130- WBCQ into NH remote had already switched to music after
JL gotta-go.
1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;

** U S A. 7780 & 5010, March 31 at 0627, NO signals from these WRMIs,
very unusual; while still nominal on 7730.
9395 // 9955, March 31 at 0631-0633+, canned WRMI IDs looping over and
over, and slightly overlapping each other, rather than regular
programming; which did continue on only other frequencies on air now,
5850 TOMBS & 7730. Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7636.0, March 31 at 0625, S9 open carrier except for JBA
clix at rate of approx. 25 per minute. Too much noise on band to
detect how far out the clickery expand this time. Previously logged
March 4 and 8 at different clickrates, and several others ending in
-6. What is this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 21725, March 31 at 1536, JBA carrier is the OSOB.
Nothing listed anywhen in A25 HFCC or EiBi, B24 Aoki. Believe this be
real rather than birdie as it`s right-on frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST update March 30
Hi Glenn, my latest Hitlist update.

Not yet Aoki, but A25 EiBis are already up:
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/bc-a25.txt
http://www.eibispace.de/dx/freq-a25.txt
** AUSTRALIA. 11870, March 30 at 1458, S7 music, announcement in
English by Reach Beyond about next program, IS and ID. HFCC shows
1450-1500 & 1500-1530, 100 kW, 320 degrees from KNX in Myanmarianese,
nowhere near thisaway, but T/E advantaged. Had I tuned at 1400-1430,
RBA should have aired `Wavescan` for first time, instead of Nepali
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 15189.8, March 30 at 0123, JBA carrier, even unto indoor
randomwire strung around ceilings of two rooms during lightning storm.
Got to be R. Inconfidência on signature offset (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CHINA. 9540, March 30 at 1459, Chinese, S6/S8. HFCC A25 shows
1500-1530 only, CNR in Zho = Chinese, 150 kW at 340 degrees. EiBi A25
shows this span only is to jam RTI in Cantonese, but SOH is also on
9540 for much longer hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [non]. 9490, March 30 at 0132, R. República announcing its
sked daily 9-10 pm on 9490, M-F also 10-11 pm on 5800. I.e. in EDT, so
01-02 UT daily 9490 via FRANCE; 02-03 UT Tue-Sat on 5800 WRMI. No
jamming audible now, as it seems DCJC has stopped all jamming? not
just of gone R. Martí on SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** JAPAN. 13860, March 30 at 0656, Japanese at S8/S9. HFCC A25 shows
07-09, on two Yamata transmitters of 300 kW each, same antenna type
208, at 55 and 85 degrees both for CIRAFs 14 & 16 = Argentina & Chile
before sunrise - so are they alternates or really both at once?
Another 13860 pair at 12-13 at 290 & 305 degrees on different
antennas, 145 and 208 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 11880, March 30 at 0134, Spanish at S9+15 still
here, KBSWR via Woofferton UK, ex-Greenville. On the edge of A25, so
further chex needed as Alan Holder points out this is missing from
their A25 sked:
``Unless there is a last minute change, 11880 kHz 0100-0200 UTC (WOF,
ex GR) has been deleted. So no more relay in Spanish for South
America. Only direct broadcasts from KOR site for Spanish. Alan
Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.``

Bargraph
https://world.kbs.co.kr/service/common/images/about/shortwave_250330.pdf
However, 11880 WOF 01-02 remains in HFCC A25 for the entire season, so
perhaps overlooked in own sked; why go to trouble of moving it from GB
to WOF only to cancel it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 15440, March 30 at 1454, S Asian language at S6/S8 is
the SSOB: HFCC A25 shows TWR in Urdu, 1430-1500, 250 kW at 35
degrees, nowhere near thisaway but T/E advantaged (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 13690, March 30 at 0655, S9+15/20, RNZ National ID
with timecheck ``before 8``, so still for another week on nonsensical
DST of UT+13, ex-13755. A25 sked shows 0558-0958, then 11725 to 1258,
7440 till 1650; and preceded by 17675 from 2059 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** ROMANIA. 11945, 0135 UT Sun Mar 30, classical piano music, pieces
briefer than the Romanian announcements between, such as 0138, i.e.
RRI now in A25, 00-02, 310 degrees from Galbeni. Alan Roe`s Music on
Shortwave as of Jan shows this as `Radio Concert Season (Classical
music)` when it was an hour later at 0200-0256 UT Sundays on 9700
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA. 11820, 0254 UT Sun Mar 30, pop music, VG S9+30 direct, the
SSOB and OOFSOB. A25 HFCC shows RRI Spanish at 02-03, 300 kW, 310
degrees from Galbeni for
CIRAF 10 = Mexico. Also 11780 as alternate? and from Tsiganeshti on
15130 or 17760 unchecked yet. YET, then recites entire *B24* SS sked
with now all-wrong times and frequencies, such as this hour at 03-04
on 9740 & 9545; oops (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. I keep getting spammed by those wanting to ``help`` WOR stop
being ignored on YouTube. Guess what, I am not in it for $ $ or to
amass `views`, but as an alternative way to hear WOR besides other
podcasts or even on the air. Feel free to access any of the last 13
programs:
https://www.youtube.com/@WorldofRadio
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2288 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday March 30 at 0320 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, about 11 minutes into
so the 0315v started early circa 0309, S9+20 into nearby SDR vs high
storm noise level even there and not really readable direct.
Also confirmed Sunday March 30 at 1900 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.996+ kHz, S9+7 into UTwente, after s/off announcement for 7275.
Next:
2130 UT Sunday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
2330 UT Sunday WRMI 7570 to NW & 7780 to SW;
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW;

1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975.
Financial support appreciated for our non-commercial public service
program: thanks for a contribution from Philip Erickson, ``for support
of SWL and WOR from a listener since 1977``, via PayPal in US funds
but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com
One may also contribute via MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser,
P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 12050, March 30 at 0253, Spanish song S9; and also at 1456
Spanish about Jesús, only S6/S7. So WEWN expanded to long hours, at
least 14-03 UT. In HFCC, available 14-06, 100 kW at 155 degrees. Still
no English on 15610 or anywhere (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, March 30 at 0259, no signal from WRNO nor earlier;
what`s wrong? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 790, March 30 at 0705 UT, trying to catch whether it`s KFGO
or KGHL, after CBS news, detailed local ``weatherscope`` and IDs
instead as WSGW Saginaw MI, also on 100.5 FM - which is not a mere
translator; U4 5/1 kW on 790 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1530, Mar 30 at 0712 UT, bluegrass/country music QRMing
WCKY talk, presumably some station out of whack: see previous report
for candidates. Tried to DF it but nothing certain; Spanish also in
there presumably TX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7200 LSB, March 30 at 0257, music mixed with talkovers,
the naughty-ham channel; otherwise the bands are crammed during some
contest (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15230, March 30 at 0657, JBA music. HFCC A25 shows Iran
at 0550-0820, also Xi`an, China at 03-09. Sirjan also at 0920-1250; DW
via UAE at 14-15. Keep these in mind when guessing unregistered Cuba
on one of its last barely funxional transmitters, most useful before
15 or 16 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
