** CUBA. 11850, Sept 13 at 0132, RHC with S9+10 of dead air in
Spanish, flanked by usual JBA carrier parasitic spurs on 11840 &
11860. At least not a roar now from Saudi Yemenia on 11860, just a bit
of residual Cuban pulse jamming for mutual QRM. Dead air or
just-barely-modulation is *normal* for 11850; what incompetence.
Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wednesday September 13 at 2200, token English from
SNR, this NAm frequency is much weaker than usual but still sufficient
into Maryland SDR, not sufficient direct. 2205 feature by Justin Coe
about some musician connected with composer of Looney Tunes music,
Raymond Scott. Initially S8 with deep fades to S4, but fades
completely out by 2225. At first the second best was 11670 for Af
rather than 15520 for ME nor 17715 for SAm. After 17855 was gone,
11670 became best/and/only by default for French after 2230, but
barely usable with RTTY warble. G1 level geomagnetic storms are
ongoing per WWV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sept 13 at 2200, no signal direct from VOT
English; but also zero signal into UTwente past 2245 which ought to
get at least a trace, so assumed AWOL despite geomag storm.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re the Route 66 On the Air special ham event as logged on

** U S A. 101.5, Sept 13 at 1955 UT on caradio, bits of Spanish and
partial ID as ``Mexicana ... y 93.9``, so of course it is again KSMM
Liberal KS which is also on 93.9 Dodge City KZRD --- not a relay of
92.9 KMML as there is no such station tho still shown that way in
WTFDA FM DB for 101.5.

Still no longer hearing any dead air in $ tereo on 101.5, as per
numerous logs in August, which I assumed was out of my nearest, KOCD
Okeene. But of course never heard ID; could have confirmed only by
driving closer to Okeene, but R. Salvación website claims it and its
own LP primary on 93.9 in OKC had both gone off the air in January. So
if true, the DA might have been from the other Okie in Collinsville
near Tulsa. Or a remote possibility, an abandoned Part 15 RF feeder in
some parked car or residence in Enid, no input but left turned on. I
doubt this because of its wide range in town, not just around home
QTH.

In July I had a 101.5 log from KSMM and explained the confusion
between 92.9 & 93.9. At least since then, the ``silent`` notation
disappeared from 101.5 in the WTFDA DB. Except for a log in June on
101.5 also referring to 93.9 which I assumed was the OK pair rather
than KS, I had not had an Okeene 101.5 log since July of 2022,
including none since January 2023 -- tho as a semi-local would not
have paid much attention to it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, my latest report of V of Martyrs Korea,
Dhivehi service at 1500-1530, that widely assumed site Uzbekistan is
unbelievable - strong regular signal with no polar path disruptions,
and more likely Kununurra, Australia, or maybe Taiwan, led to further
discussion in the WOR iog. Wolfgang Bueschel:

``Target Radio on 11620 kHz shortwave 25 meterband? Why these question
marks already and y e t? It disappoints me already, that this target
radio service outlet, 11620 kHz has not yet led to a clear transmitter
centre assignment YET. Why can't DXers of professional performance in
South Asia, Japan, Korea, Pacific and Australia, New Zealand make a
true DIRECTION FINDING assignment of this transmission? vy73 wolfie

Reply from Mauno Ritola, WRTH: ``No need any more, it is Kununurra as
listed in
https://wrth.info/ainternational-summer-schedules-update/
Best regards, Mauno``

DF5SX@darc.de kirjoitti 11.9.2023 klo 13.12: ``re 11620 kHz target
radio program Voice of Martyrs - Kununurra site origin is true?
Thanks Mauno for your WRTH Summer A23 season product PDF file. Have
seen WRTH page #639 or PDF #14 page item of RBA site in Australia,
noted just Sept 11 at 1505 UT 11824.990 kHz of RBA Burmese outlet,
usual all Kununurra txions are oddly some minus 10 to minus 30 Hertz
on
lower sideband. but today 11620 kHz in English noted at 15 UT on much
e x a c t 11620 kHz -- as usual noted from Tashkent Uzbekistan
bcast center site outlets instead. 73 wolfie``

Mauno: ``Oh. My experience is vice versa: Tashkent is mostly off. Now
at 1540: 9649.95 kHz, 11529.83 kHz, 15629.85 kHz, 7509.93 kHz,
12080.01 kHz. 73, Mauno``

gh: I agree, Tashkent *is* habitually offset-minus, but I can`t be
sure it apply to all their transmitters/relays. So how are you
positive it`s Australia, any more than other sources which treat
Uzbekistan as if it be positive. The real question is why, from the
outset of the Maldives service, site has been treated as confidential
by VOMK, never registered in HFCC; especially since VOMK already uses
Kununurra openly for other services, such as Korean and Myanmarianese.
That seems to raise the question whether it`s really, really secret
somewhere else (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Sept 11 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR and also the other three are not off; the
two YLs as usual, previewing feature interview about Javier Marías,

2224 distorted song. 2227 `Did You Know That` about a new kind of
chickpea. 2230 two-minute multilingual ID filler reel. 2232 song. Next

presumably mostly in UU, daily except for a Friday gospel huxter at
1200-1300 on 5010 southward, which is hardly helpful in most of North
America. I had not tried to hear RUI`s brief daily newscast in English
for quite a while, `Ukraine; Security Issue`. The bookmark I had no
longer worx. On UT Sept 10, I found it here by sliding the time to
approx. 03:00 [local], click on it there and away it goes, this time
for only 4 minutes:

** U S A. 5130+, Sept 11 at 0303, WBCQ`s Trump transmitter is still
off the air, after a godly lightning strike. Hint2 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. An expedition some 10/15 miles north of Enid allows me to
check 1550 KKLE Winfield KS better than I can hear it at home. In a
previous report I heard sibling station 1130 KLEY in nearby Wellington
utter a joint ID for them as well as several FM outlets. But Sept 10
at 1943 UT they are certainly not //: one caradio but tuning back and
forth, 1550 with music, 1130 with ad. After 2000, KKLE goes from a
banjo bluegrass tune, to country, which is exactly the format listed
in the new NRC AM Log. KLEY however sounds more rockish to me than
country whenever I check it, and it has been modulating lately. Never
heard the slogan ``Red Dirt Country``. BTW an FCC report says the FM
translator of 1130, which is all that matters, has changed from 100.3
to 104.1 MHz, unknown why. 100.3 was relatively clear but never heard
this far away, and 104.1 is impossible with OKC fullpower on it.

Another check on the caradio inside Enid, Sept 11 circa 2005 UT: 1130
KLEY ID jointly for KKLE and two FMs, probably their translators. But
once again, 1550 with weaker but sufficient signal is NOT // 1130!!
Playing bluegrass while 1130 goes on with classic rock. True, I have
not heard how 1550 IDs, but it can`t be the Okie, KYAL Sapulpa/Tulsa
which is a Sports Animal. At 2143 on home rig, 1550 promos as
bluegrass 24/7; and I think My Town Media, as below. Does have a fast
SAH, probably de KYAL.

These stations used to belong to Rocking M Media LLC, as if on a
branding iron, M atop an arc, as still shown at radio-locator; but FCC
LMS, which is allegedly kept more up to date than ``unexpected
error``, AM Query, says licensee is My Town Media Inc., but expired
01/04/2023! which would seem to imply it should be off the air. Ditto
for KLEY. But ``Facility Status Date` is 08/12/2021! That`s MM/DD/YYYY
format per other entries (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1550 kHz, Sept 10 at 2359 UT on E/W LW, I`m checking still
tuned here for a legal ID from KKLE, q.v. No call letters, but
``greatest hits of all time, Motown(?) 107.5``. Looking thru all 56
entries on 1550 in the new NRC AM Log, it`s not the first one, WLOR
Huntsville AL, 50000/44 watts which does have a puny FM translator on
``107.5, The Beat``. But gotta be this, also likelier by proximity:
KESJ St. Joseph MO, 2500/500, ``Joe Town 107.5``! Another translator
tail wagging the AM dog (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 101.5, Sept 10 from 1900 UT on an expedition some 10/15
miles north of Enid, I stick mostly to this frequency trying to
ID/sort out the fringe Spanish. Mostly unreadable, traces of Mexmx,
but a couple momentary peaks at 1915 and 1921 say `La Mexicana`, ergo
KSMM Liberal KS and not either Okie. Thataway there is more ACI from
101.3 Wichita (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Jeff; i.e. Sept 17 or 24.

Confirmed UT Sunday September 10 at 0034, the 0030 on WRMI 7780, JBA
direct in HLNL = high line noise level; at 0058, S9 into Missouri SDR
vs HSNL = high storm noise level.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 10 at 0319 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO,
S9+15/20 vs HSNL into nearby SDR: nearest Blitz in east TN, NW KS,
about 4 minutes into so started on time circa 0315.

I happened to awaken.

Many thanks to Terry Colgan, who surprisingly had to suspend TRSW after
the Sept 3 programs; and our best wishes to him.

Sked on WRMI had been UT Sun 00-01 on 5950, Sun 12-13 on 15770. I`m
wondering whether some previous TRSWs might appear in those slots
still. WRMI skedgrids not updated to show anything else (Glenn Hauser,

** VATICAN. 15595, Sept 9 at 0633, S9 best signal on band has RCC news
in English. VR, SMG is scheduled everywhere as in French at 0630-0645;
except Sundays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15700, Sept 9 at 0633, JBA carrier vs S9 line noise
level still not repaired by OG&E 3+ days later. Only thing listed is
World Music Radio, DENMARK, per EiBi 24 hours, but per Aoki 09-16
only. It`s low power and I have never managed even a carrier in
numerous bandscans here nor on 25800 or 5930. Operator said it would
be 24/7 thru September with 300 W AM on 15700. As recently as Sept 3,
Carlos Gonçalves, Portugal logged it on 15699.7; on Aug 31, 15699.642
per Wolfgang Büschel. I did not notice it being so far off-frequency
but was not alert for that. Maybe something else. Propagation?
Surprisingly, Vatican q.v. was in well on 15595, with a bit more power
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
