Logs
** BRAZIL [non]. 6090, Feb 12 at 0005, VP signal with M&W talk; I try
to divine whether it`s Brazuguese, as Mark Coady, Ontario, has again
assumed it`s Radio Bandeirantes. No, it sounds more like Chinese. I am
never monitoring at the same time and date as Mark; his was Feb 8 at
0002 and he heard RB even underneath Anguilla, which is not on now.
Recheck at 0027: now a stronger S7-S9 dead air or maybe JB modulated.
Both these fit for Aoki listings:
2055-0300 CNR2 Golmud 916 site; close to grayline
0020-0320 Iran Sirjan site in Spanish

But it also maintains R. Bandeirantes, SÃo Paulo, as 24 hours --- like
so many other long-gone LA stations.

But2, there could be at times a R. Bandeirantes on 6090. Rudolf Grimm
in SP state reports it Jan 29 at 1742 UT in the local daytime with a
program `Radio Livre`. He could not hear RB on MW 840 or the other
former SW frequencies 9645, 11925, but the timechex were correct and
the info current. It could have been a unauthorized pirate relay from
FM or webcast, as ZY SW pirates are proliferating, so why not? He says
RB had not been on the 49m frequency for three years.

By 0150, Anguilla has come up on 6090, PMS S9+20 with hum and squeal.
I`m certainly not going to hear anything else under her (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15700, Feb 11 at 1438, CRI Plus English relay is S9+20,
overmodulated, distorted and splattering. Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba.

5910, Feb 12 at 0310, this CRI English relay is S9+30 but suptorted.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Feb 11 at 0720, VON is on tonight, S9+10/20.

9690-, Feb 11 at 1915, silly ballgame from SPAIN with a LAH, so VON is
also on again here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1968 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
February 10 at 2155 the 2130 on WRMI 7780, fair.

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 11 at 0230 on WRMI 5950, S9+20; but not even
a JBA carrier on // 9395, off? (by 0352 during Slovakia mailbag, it`s
S9-S9+10, and stronger than 5950).

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 11 from 0401 on Area 51 webcast. Also
presumably on WBCQ 5139.48 which was a JBA carrier at 0351.

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 11 at 0430 on WRMI webcast; at 0458 check,
9955 VP at S6-S7; after 0500 this week, webcast plays World Music.

Also confirmed Mon Feb 11 at 2353 the 2330 on WRMI 9955, S9S5; by 2359
lite jamming has ramped up. Last couple words of WOR are upcut by
music fill, as WRMI automation seems set up to overlap deliberately

WORLD OF RADIO 1969 contents: Alaska, Andaman Islands, Australia,
Brazil, Canada, China, Cuba, Eritrea non, France, Germany, Italy non,

** U S A. 3264.573, Feb 12 at 0001, JBA carrier vs storm noise from
western OK, as WBCQ is finally testing this transmitter again, first
tipped by Alan Pennington, UK to the WOR iog:

``WBCQ Monticello, Maine, USA testing 3265 kHz at present: "3265 kHz
on now with test transmissions. Reception reports to wbcq at wbcq dot
com please. Free Radio supreme here at WBCQ. Frozen north." (Allan
Weiner, WBCQ on Twitter 2010 UT) --- Continuous pop, rock, oldies on
3264.6 from 2020 tune-in, many repeated IDs finally heard at 2055,
good signal on SDRs in Rockport Maine (at 2020) and Newton, New
Hampshire (2035). Then talk show from 2100 (Financial Survival? re
7490 schedule). But not audible across here in Caversham, UK. 73, Alan
Pennington``.

Wolfgang Bueschel was also hearing it via remotes near WBCQ, the
frequency varying considerably. At 0149 I find it still on 3264.573
but also still a JBA carrier. After 0200 a trace of music; 0240 still
JBA carrier. Wonder how much power this is axually running, and what
type of antenna, gain? That could be asked of all WBCQ frequencies. Of
course 90m would have been much more useful in the quiet winter of
minimum storm noise, and minimum MUFs.

5130.49, UT Tue Feb 12 at 0156, WBCQ with `From the Isle of Music`
about to end, poor but better than // 7490.18. At 0157, 5130.49 cuts
to legal IDs by AW over and over, while FTIOM is still on 7490.18!
9330 is inaudible, off or propped out. At 0201-0202* sign-off
classical music on 5130.49 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7315 and much stronger 7385 are the active frequencies of
WHRI at 0308 and 0348 Feb 12, not 5920 or 7520 as on UT Sundays with
the Russian on the upper (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 27185, Feb 11 at 1915 on caradio, someone local is
transmitting a big hum on this prime CB frequency (Glenn Hauser, Enid
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 6020, Feb 10 at 0103, CRI English, 300 kW, 305 degrees
via ALBANIA has a LAH, and CCI from some other talk. Hard to make out
sounding similar but not synchronized, so wonder if CRI from another
site in English? It is prime-time for such self-QRM, as per HFCC, at
01-02 CRI is also via Kashgar, East Turkistan, 100 kW, 209 degrees but
supposed to be in Urdu, not English. There is such a double-English
CRI broadcast at this hour on 6180, via Habana and Kashgar. 6020 does
not work out as a possible leapfrog from Cuba at this hour (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6010, Feb 10 at 0058, weak music // 5990 CRI relay not quite
off yet, i.e. the leapfrog again over 6000 which this time is an open
carrier prior to 0100 English. By 0102 5990 is off, 6000 in suptorted
RHC English, 6010 also off. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6100, Feb 10 at 0655, RHC still AWOL from this frequency as
has been for several nights now, so what will happen with the
scheduled weekly Sunday Esperanto at 0700 on 6100? Still nothing: all
RHC 49m frequencies off. If Esp`o weren`t RHC`s least important,
lowest priority language, they could have put it on some other
transmitter and/or frequency, as has happened before contrary to
schedule. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

15140, Sun Feb 10 at 1601, RHC Esperanto starting here on
unacknowledged frequency, as well as publicized 11760. Schedule
announcement at 1603 still claims first broadcast is at 0800 on 6100!
I seriously doubt they got 6100 back on the air just for that, but
zzzz unchecked. Previous weeks it has been at 0700 on 6100, contrary
to initial B-18 schedule, i.e. tacked on to end of English rotations.
During announcement of frequencies, deep fade at 1600 part, but I
think there was only one, i.e. not including 15140, which was added
months ago, other days only Spanish // 11760. Third broadcast to be
Sun 2330 on 15730, not confirmed lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15700, Feb 10 at 1514, CRI Plus relay in English is S9+30/40
but very suptorted; wiggle that patchcord! Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15311, 15255, 14968, Feb 10 at 1521, only traces of a few of
the plus/minus 26.8 kHz spur multiples from RHC 15140. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NIGERIA. 9690-, Feb 10 at 1650, no signal from VON QRMing SBG from
SPAIN, via UTwente SDR, so another Sunday without the new 1630-
English broadcast heard most other days of week, in clear on weekdays
when Spain does not start until 1900 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

BRAZIL. 6010.016, Feb 9 at 0710, JBA carrier, probably R.
InconfidÃncia, despite Aoki/NDXC listing as in a break 06-09 (and also
listing imaginary Mexico and probably same Colombia on 6010).

CUBA. Unlike English, RHC Spanish is still making SW frequency
announcements at certain hours, which don`t always mesh with reality
--- but what do those non-SWLs know back in the studio?

11760, Feb 9 at 0000 tune-in, onesuch is in progress; missed the first
part that I will try to catch again. `...13740, 11840, 9640, 5040. A
partir de las 0000: 13740, 11670, 11840, 11950, 11700, 9640, 6000`` -
-- but NOT the very frequency I am tuned to, 11760! 11670, 11700 and
11840 are all suptorted, plus weak 11830/11850 spurs, never announced.

11950 also on, but *not* // the others because it`s the separate `Mesa
Redonda` TV soundtrack hour, // 6000 only --- something the announcer
does not comprehend by mixing those two in with the others.


BTW, this is UT Saturday, altho EiBi and NDXC/Aoki claim 00-01 6000 //
11950 are on air Tue-Fri only. Maybe the UT Sat shows are irregular, or
confusion local vs UT days? Another frequency announcement is at 0400, but
just caught it ending at 0402 on 6060.

I then resolve two mysteries others have reported!

6010, Feb 9 at 0022, two carriers, so is Colombia really reactivated
along with Brasil? I barely make out some Spanish talk so the
assumption would be Colombia --- but NO, it`s // 5990 CRI relay! Now,
I get it: 6010 is a leapfrog mixing product of 5990 over 6000 (Cuba
can make broad jumps, but LFMPs are supposedly more apt between nearby
frequencies.) This is possible only between 00 and 01 when both are on
the air (unless they forget to turn at both of them off).

The other could still be Brasil, as no other broadcaster, major or
minor is known active during this hour (DON`T YOU BELIEVE Radio Mil,
Mexico, still in Aoki/NDXC, which has been gone for many YEARS). To
confuse matters further, RHC has some Brazilian trying to speak
Spanish, i.e. Portunhol, I have also heard at other times; maybe an
unusual temporary guest.


6090: so I am checking this out too: Feb 9 at 0401, no Anguilla, but
fast SAH of about 15 Hz, talk and music mixing. Now I get it! 6090 is
another leapfrog mixing product as confirmed by // audio: 5910 CRI
relay over 6000 RHC English, another 90 kHz higher. Both must be
TitÃn-QuivicÃn site here too. Leapfrogs do not make any SAH as the
result is a single ``transmission``, which however could be off-
frequency if either fundamental be; so what else is on 6090 now?
Surely R. Amhara, ETHIOPIA. The 6090 Cuban mix could be heard anytime
between 03 and 05, the 5910 CRI hours in English, Cantonese. Checked
at 0407 for reverse leap on 5820 but nothing audible there.

NIGERIA. 7255-, Feb 9 at 0718, VON S9+20 in African language about
Sierra Leone. Re my previous report of it missing, Dan Sheedy,
California replies:

"Hi Glenn, just saw your 8 Feb 0653 non-log of VoN-7255. Oddly enough,
I was checking them out at 0623 8 Feb. & they were doing OK in Hausa,
so apparently their "doing OK" didn't last too long. Have a safe
weekend, good listening, & cheers from the beach. Dan"
