** ALGERIA. 17600, Oct 30 at 1450 direct, and at 1907, 2033 into
UTwente, NO signal from Ifrikya FM, which is HFCC registered at
0700-0100! Others do report it in their mornings after 0700, but when
does it really stop?

``An English segment was heard today, 30 October, at 0753 on 15160 and
17600. Called "Living Legends" (or perhaps "Living Legends Never
Dies"), this episode was talking about a woman (couldn't catch the
name) involved in the conflict between Algeria and France from the
1830s.

Also today, 30 October, from 1030 to 1045 (and still on 15160 and
17600) was a studio "roundtable-style" discussion in English about the
"digital landscape" (encompassing education, social affairs and social
media), with a short musical break midway through the discussion. Alan
Roe, Teddington, UK`` in the WOR iog; and:

I heard them yesterday (29 October) on 17600 kHz (didn’t check 15160)
with a talk in English at 0743 about the Afar people and their
cultural heritage. Difficult to follow at times due to the presenter’s
accent. Reggae music followed up until the news in French at 0800.
73’s Tony Rogers, Birmingham, UK`` in the BDXC-news iog (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 13820, Oct 30 at 1448, S9/+20 of open carrier as
Grimesland is warming up for R. Martí at 1500-2100, always B-season
frequency instead of 13605 A-season. No jamming audible yet on either
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ITALY [non]. 7290.002, Oct 30 at *1857, IRRS `Milano` via ROMANIA
or BULGARIA on with tone, then dead air, S9+10/15, 1900 s/on as
``7285`` and into anti-abortion gospel huxter. So now it *is*
announcing wrong frequency. QRM situation: until 1857, 7290 is CRI;
from 1857, 7295 is CRI, with heavy ACI to IRRS now on 7290, while
nothing is on 7285 or 7280 = so IRRS should have stayed on 7285! if
it`s going to be at 19-20 UT instead of 18-19 in A-season, which we
expected and is now shown on NEXUS/IBA sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 800, Oct 30 at 0658, still heavy distorted QRM from XEERG,
NL, to nearby KQCV OK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690 & 12030, Wed Oct 30 at 2318 check, NO TOKEN ENGLISH,
SFR still in Spanish instead, both fairly audible direct, probably
about the flash-flooding disaster. Both VG into UTwente and JBA on
17715, 17755. As I reported, NO frequencies were on air when English
should have appeared Monday Oct 28 after 2300. But, earlier Wed: ``An
English podcast has now been uploaded (on 29 Oct for the UT Mon 28 Oct
programme). Alan Roe, Teddington, UK`` Here it be with subject:
https://www.rtve.es/play/audios/english-language-broadcast/world-menopause-day-raising-awareness-of-womens-health/16307489/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004-, Oct 30 at 2318, strong signal direct
on indoor antenna during OK thunderstorm, must be VOT back after
absent two days. Yes, into UTwente at 2322 when measured, English at
S9+25/35; 2332 starts `The Middle East and Turkey`. 2340 music. 2344
`Sports Panorama`. 2352 s/off as if 13635 at 1330-1430 --- something`s
always awry at Ankara, and IS: now I can hear some CCCCCCI underneath,
which would be PBS Xinjiang, Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, land of
imperialist ChiCom cultural genocide against Uyghurs and other
Moslems. 2356 restart VOT IS with German IDs twice a minute.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Off at 2358* uncovering
Urumqi, mentioning ``Wulumushi`` multiple times, frequency/relay
listing? Briefly this seems to have CCI of IS from some religious
broadcaster, but nothing else scheduled starting or stopping now. 0000
into CNR1 relay (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 11810, Oct 30 at 0645, S6/S9 English about Cameroon:
it`s BBC via ASCENSION this hour only. Jordan also pretends in HFCC to
be on 11810 at 0500-0830 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2266 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
October 29 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR [from next
week: UT Wednesday 0030].

Also confirmed UT Wednesday October 30 from 0029.6 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.003, S9+20 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday October 30 at 2030 on SW Radio, Germany,

** JAPAN. 7380, Oct 29 at 0705, Japanese S9+20/30 direct. NHK from
Yamata 0700-0900 for S America: a very strange transmission at 4-6 am
local in Brasil, Argentina, Uruguay, even earlier elsewhere. Are JJ
ethnix typically early-risers? OTOH, hits Hawai`i on the way at only
9-11 pm local (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, Oct 29 at 2214, JBA carrier, presumably
pirate Hikari FM on signature offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11930, Oct 29 at 0655, RRI English signing off, S6/S8
direct. Per EiBi, RRI is the only station foolish enough to choose
this Cuban jammer frequency! None heard now, but when capable, often
runs all night despite Martí on here only in daytime. 0630-0700 only,
Galbeni to W Europe, so also thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. Checking REE program info via the WOR Hitlist, we see that
there are no English podcasts since 22 Oct = UT Mon Oct 21 at 2200;
yet the ``hoy`` Tuesday Oct 29 program alleges there is/was English at
0000 &  0400 local = 2300 & 0300 UT - when no SW frequencies were on
air! Altho some blackouts had occurred, there were other signals
audible on the bands around 2300. There is a certain disconnect among
the program producers, the SW operators, and the websiters.

Tue Oct 29 at 1620, into UTwente, bigsigs in Spanish on 12030 and
17755, ME and Africa beams which start at 1600 M-F. 9690 & 17715 for
N&S America start at 1900 weekdays. Confirmed at 1917 into UTwente,
JBA direct, 17715 slightly better than 9690, which is really too low
for a daypath at this hour: too drastic a drop from 18 to 10 MHz.
UTwente also hears 17755 poorly, not direct. But shall there really be
any token English at 2300 M/W/F? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960.003-, Oct 29 at 2259, Chinese music with
interruptions, 2300 timesignal and Mandarin announcement, S9/+15 into
UTwente: much like yesterday, no trace of VOT English to us (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2266 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday October
29 at 0330 on 7780, S9+10/15 into Louisiana SDR.

Also confirmed Tuesday October 29 at 1300 and AGAIN new at 1400 on
WRMI 9955, S5/S8 JBA direct, but at 1428 into Georgia SDR, S9+35!

Also confirmed Tuesday October 29 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1323 kHz, fair into UTwente, on timer recording. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
0030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
2030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17525, Oct 29 at 2159, WMLK still going with DEJOM, S9+30/40
if really of the back, direct, presumably about to close for laborious
retune to 9275 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1060, Oct 29 at 0640 UT tune-in, ID as ``The music you grew
up with, WQNZ? 1060 and 93.5 FM``, more mentions of WQNZ? and area
code 931. NO, per NRC AM Log, it is really WQMV, Waverly TN, 4 WATTS
at night, 1000 daypower, U1 non-direxional. Waverly is west of
Nashville, about halfway to Arkansas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. ``Glenn, regarding 1540 kHz: KGBC is now running a Spanish
language Tropical music format branded as “Power 105.3”.  The station
was recently off the air for a few days, but is back now.  KGBC is
nominally the originating station for translator K287BQ in Houston.
KGBC is audible at my NW Harris County location during the day, but no
usable night reception as it is lost in the co-channel pileup on the
frequency. Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas``

Stephen, Tnx for info. I could not match programming to skewed
frequency but can you tell if it`s about 1539.95 in the daytime?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7570, Oct 29 at 2217, JBA carrier direct; could WRMI be
attempting a comeback? But at 2241 into Maryland SDR, no broadcast
audio, just dittering. EiBi reminds us 7570 could be Canadian HF
trading ute, or V. of Korea. 9455 WRMI remains silent (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 21460.05 approx., Oct 29 at 2208 JBA USB, sounds like
ham QSO in English, maybe two stations; hams out of band, or spurs?
Hardly necessary with very little occupancy below 21450 tho surely
propagable if 28 MHz is (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
