Hauser Update  View Printable Version 
Thursday, February 02 2023

Hauser
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed Feb 1 at 1857, LRA36 already on
with songs: a special test for 1900-1945 previewed via Horacio Nigro
as early as 1431. (I had not even bothered to check at 1500.):

``Adrian Korol advises that "Today there will be a test broadcast of
LRA36 Radio Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel at 16:00 Argentine time (19
UTC) on 15476 khz USB for 45 minutes".``

I`m on one of the Argentine remotes which is getting it at the usual
level, S9 peaks, not bad for 200 watts, but never overcoming the
``frying sound`` background noise level.

1900 Morse code too fast for me but presumably ID, and standard vocal
s/on as ``Radio San Gabriel``, never mind the Nacional and the
Arcángel, multilingual that will be only in Spanish; 1901 a reading
about looking southward from Patagonia; `Uniendo Voces` program
slogan; 1903 live OM as joint produxion with RAE/AAM, credits to
Nicole and Adrián; contact info. Bit of music; efemérides = this week
in history starting with 31 Jan 1909y; 1908 ``cultura es soberanía``;
1912 canción; 1916 ID as Radio Arcángel San Gabriel --- too much
trouble to utter the full five-word name?? ``su cía``; phone tones,
``comunicad``, multilingual RAE ID reel. 1917 about carrying out
pruebas, contact info again. 1918 saludos from various voices; then
long talk about history of Antarctic bases, military operations; 1933
song; 1936 about memoria, but chopped off mid-sentence at 1937.5*
never to return for another dekaminute I listened to the noise. Next,
on Sat at 1500? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIZUELA [and non?]. 4941-4945 approx., Feb 1 at 0720, strange
noise peak accompanying 4940 SS gospel huxter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Feb 1 at 0714 S9+10/20 of silence, the one RHC
transmitter still on, no others on 5, 6, 10, 11 or 13 MHz bands; vying
for dead-air sweepstakes with WRMI, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Jan 31 at 1800 UT, KUCO-FM with no StarDate,
instead WFMT teaser. O, as website explains due to icy roads staff are
not coming in today, rather plugging in to a network feed, which also
means they cannot manage local insertions of Modules; yet the
still-original website has finally updated the Module skeds:
https://www.kucofm.com/programs/list-of-modules/
Same situation Feb 1 at 1800 UT, no StarDate on KUCO, so get it at
1804 on KANU / Kansas Public Radio (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 1 at 2302, token English from REE in news,
S9+5/18 into Virginia SDR // 12030 and 11940 weakers but usables and
nothing on 11670. News ends with latest COVID figures from different
regions in Spain. 2306 an interview with Yolanda about sustainability,
hard to follow due to accent vs noisy reception (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Feb 1 at 2300, no signal from VOT into UTwente.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler; at first no signal either
from XJPBS, Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom
genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems, but it`s on and modulating
Chinese by 2311, still alone at 2330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the
trees. Dear Glenn: Confirming World of Radio #2175, WRMI:

9395, slight QRN, 0130, 0144, 0159 (45543), (55433), 0158, Jan 31
[Tue]
9395, 0031, 0054 (55343), (45343), 0058, February 1 UTC 2023 [Wed]
5850, overslept, 1029, February 1 UTC 2023 [Wed] (Lemke, Richard
-AB)``

I am disappointed that none of the hundreds of WOR iog members, many
of whom are in awake timezones at 1030, checked that 5850 broadcast,
despite my repeated requests. It had been replaced on the WRMI
skedgrid, but was still heard for at least one week. Once again I need
to zzz thru it.

Confirmed UT Wednesday February 1 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+22/25 into
Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday February 1 starting at 2200:20 on WBCQ
7489.94, S9/S6 direct. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid, OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4980, Feb 1 at 0715, S9+30 of silence from WRMI which should
have finished by 0500; vying for the dead-air sweepstakes with RHCuba,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5935 & 4840, Feb 1 at 0713 & 0718 chex, WWCRs are OFF, along
with 5890 & 3215 which are normally mostly off overnight except
weekends. Icy weather? Checking Nashville airport NWS hourly
conditions: at 0553 & 0653 overcast; but at 0453 & earlier, had been
freezing rain. Next check at 1630, all are on nominally, 9980, 12160,
13845 and with sporadic-E boost, 15825 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, Feb 1 at 0716, JBA carrier from R. Vanuatu X 2 but
none making it on X 3 = 11835; likewise 13755 NZ is but a JBA carrier
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Feb 1
at 0218: 684, 774-2, 855-2, 909, 999, 1089, 1107-2, 1125, 1296. These
correlate with Spain or UK, most likely closest edges of Europe. Glad
to hear 684 unlike later scans, likely what`s left of Sevilla; which
in the meantime I see is still routinely logged in Europe (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Feb 1
at 0725: 684, 837, 855-2, 1116-2, all likely Spain. Still no 846 TP
Kiritimati; has anyone confirmed it lately? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5955, Feb 1 at 0713, JBA carrier where normally nothing
but Cuban pulse jamming against nothing. Only listee in EiBi & Aoki is
Sunlite, Holland, at 0500-1500, 500 watts with irregular test
transmissions as of WRTH 2022. BTW, the new WRTH 2023 is about to
start shipping (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2339 UT February 1

** BRAZIL [and non]. 6170, Jan 31 at 0730, JBA carrier from presumed
R. Saturno. First time I have detected it since a few days ago it was
reported reactivated here, ex-6150.

EiBi & Aoki, not yet up with it on 6170, indicate these windows when
North Korea, Ascension, Philippines are NOT on 6170: 2050-0200,
0300-0500, 0530-1000. And disregarding R. Europa, Holland, lowpower
possibly 24h; and Scandinavian Weekend Radio, Finland, at certain
hours once almost every month, including Feb 3-4, ON at 22-14 &
18-22.

Saturno was a rare newcomer to SW, not even making WRTH 2022 on 6150.
It was first reported Oct 31, 2021 by Bryan Clark, NZ: a Belo
Horizonte 92.3 FM station adding SW. Again tnx to Bryan who heard it
on 6170 Jan 28, 2023, ex-6150 where heard on Jan 22, and Brazilians
first reported 6170 on Jan 24. Further chex here needed! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 2598 USB, Jan 31 at 0737, marine weather by roboyl for
Grand Banx area, S8. 2749 USB not on yet but at 0740 with more of same
on weaker signal, i.e. first broadcasts of day from 2598, 3 kW VCP-4
at Placentia, Newfoundland; and 2749, 0.5 kW VCO Sydney, Nova Scotia.
BTW, nowhere on the extensive dxinfocentre.com/mb roster are there any
VCP-1, -2 of -3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Jan 31 at 0732, RHC S9+10 with maybe a trace of
modulation while all its 5, 6 and 10 MHz frequencies are off.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH. 9650, Jan 31 at 0735, S5 of choral music, no doubt VOK
Japanese as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 17730, Jan 31 at 1622, S7/S9 algo JBM: listed is AWR in
Marathi to India via Talata (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 31 at 0733, no signal from VON; was it on
earlier today? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.000+, Jan 31 at *2259 carrier on over BBC
Oman promo until its 2259.5*. Bit of music, dead air. 2300, 4+1
timesignal and Chinese! s/on of XJPBS Urumqi, no sign of VOT. XJPBS
carrier may be on by 2300 but usually does not start modulating until
about 2311. But VOT has come on late, S9+40 by next check 2307 with
news in progress, on 5960.002+, both as measured by UTwente Synch. The
+ means constantly fluxuating in the hundredths of a Hz, not clear
whether of the transmitters, receiver, or both. VOT continues well
atop XJPBS as an undercurrent.

2314 `Review of the Turkish Press`, not in any depth as usual. 2316
song. 2320 `Weekly Commentary`, by a freelance journalist in Berlin
whose name I cannot copy, read by the heavily-accented woman
announcer, about anti-American sentiment in Germany, foot-dragging on
aiding Ukraine with some faxions wanting to maintain close relations
with Russia. Implies that it`s in US` interest to escalate the war!
Closing with disclaimer about opinions, name again I cannot
understand, and invites listeners to submit their own commentaries by
email for possible broadcast.

2329 music. 2336 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2338 music. 2344 recipe
for a pastry in `Turkey`s Geo-something Products`. 2346 multi-lingual
ID filler reel *again*. 2348 music. 2353 s/off with full but jumbled
English sked. 2354 IS. 2356 restart IS with German IDs interspersed.
0000 Feb 1, 5+1 timesignal, same pitch but final pip prolonged, and
s/on German, into news. Finally cuts off at 0010 uncovering XJPBS.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565, Jan 31 at 1558, K6FRC, Patterson CA, 1.8 mW HIFER
beacon is JBA with calls repeating, QRMing CODAR (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: confirmed UT

S9+20/30 direct. Next:

** VANUATU. 11835, Jan 31 at 0731, R. Vanuatu is S8/S9 with drumming
and announcements on 3 x 3945, while that and X 2 on 7890 not checked.
As to be expected, NZ 13755 also with VG signal now (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Jan 31
at 0739: unusually, none at all heard: getting too late and/or
high-latitude TA paths suppressed? and TP Kiritimati maybe off? While
on SW, NZ 13 and Vanuatu 11 MHz coming in very well (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 30 at 0720, R. Rebelde is on and modulating, but
nothing on X2 = 10050; despite frequent chex, have not heard that nor
10080 = 5040 X2 RHC lately. It seems 10080 was last heard Jan 12;
10050 Dec 11. Something`s not wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13680, Sun Jan 29 at 2138, RHC in Arabic, not Esperanto; and
15140 is off: either of which have sometimes spoken Esperantely.
Something`s always wrong at RHC. However, Jan 30 at 2203, 15140 still
on late with headlines and news in Spanish, S9+10/20 the SSOB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15680, Jan 30 at 2202, S7/S9 in unID SE Asian? language,
OOFSOB = One Of Few Signals On Band. EiBi shows at 2200-2230, KSDA in
NJ to Indonesia; Aoki, Nga. EiBi readme.txt language list shows NGA -
all caps, means Ngangela/Nyemba: Angola, but that can`t be right;
while NJ, not New Joisey dialect, but: Ngaju Dayak: Indonesia-Borneo
(0.9m) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 30 at 0652, S9+10/20 of dead air except for
squeal from VON. Something`s always abnormal at Abuja (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Jan 30 at 2306, token M/W/F English from REE,
after news, Amy Egan interviewing a woman director? about a play based
on letters between two women of different ages. S9 +20 on NAm
frequency into Maryland SDR, weaker on meter but still VG on 12030 to
ME off the back, and 11940 to SAm off the sidish. Still zero signal on
11670 or 11685 to Africa. Occupies rest of semihour with 2 minutes of
song about letters to conclude (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 30 at 2309, VOT VG into UTwente, last news item
about Toyota going to build E-SUVs in Turkey; 2311 `Review of the
Turkish Press`, as the CCCCCCI starts from E Turkistan, std
denunciation. 2313 song. 2317 `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`
about health benefits of pickles, evidently also various other foods
pickled such as Sauerkraut: good for intestines, anti-oxident, affects
moods, ending with ``Stay healthy, stay happy``. This bit surely has a
catchy themetune: what is it? 2324 multi-lingual ID reel filler,
during which I recognize a few more languages which WRTH says are NOT
on VOT SW sked: Greek, Romanian, Hungarian. Tsk: BTW, Hungarian is
related to Turkish. 2326 song. Not attentive during 2330 NBC Eveningly
News; 2353 s/off, 2355 IS, 2356 restart IS with one German ID before
chopoff at 2356.7 uncovering XJPBS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4095 CW, Jan 30 at 0713 UT, Desert Whooper beacon somewhere
in the Southwest, DW ID and sweeps upward; JBA in noise level, unheard
for months on occasional chex. 2097.3 CW, single-letter beacon A every
dekasecond is still JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13563.5 CW, Jan 29 at 2137, PCO, 4-milliwatt HIFER beacon at
Pine, ColoradO, is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: Confirmed Sunday
January 29 at 2100.5 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR; 2058 ME music, faded out at 2100 for ID
claiming frequencies are 7125!, 9510, 1323. During announcement, music
CCI JBA underneath with slow SAH, probably Smooth Radio, Brighton,
England.

Missed checking UT Monday January 30 at 0030 on WRMI 7780: did anyone
hear it?

Confirmed UT Monday January 30 at 0400 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 minus 64

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid, OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4980, Jan 30 at 0717, S9+20 of dead air, another WRMI not
turned off, #4 supposedly scheduled 23-05 UT only with System C
Legends; but the System C program schedule below unshows 4980 at all!
nor for any other System (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17790, Jan 29 at 2131, S9+10 of dead air, still past 2141.
WRMI did not turn off #7, scheduled 1500-2100 only, Radio Africa
Network, toward S America, not Africa. NO details of programming as
perhaps ashamed of some of the dead and discredited gospel huxters
they are so excited, jumping for joy, to diffuse. WRMI sked refers to
https://www.radiopanam.com/
where no program sked can be found, nor specifically via:
https://www.radiopanam.com/impact/radio-africa-network/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 900, Jan 30 at 2230-2300 UT, KSGL Wichita KS, I find myself
listening to while resting/napping for some nice music: nostalgic love
songs, like `Midnight Gambler`, `Green Eyes` today. It`s 250/28 watts,
direxional E/W squished but sufficient signal to Enid, barely beyond
the daytime fringe contour per radio-locator. I never hear it at night
tho XEW hardly merits protexion any more. KSGL is split/personality
between `Music You Remember` -- is that a satellite syndication? And
gospel-huxtering, fortunately each in distinct segments. This leads to
program schedules and other info: http://www.ksglradio.com/
Official FCC sunset times in UT: 2330 Jan, 0015 Feb, 0030 March... I
think it used to be IBOC, but too weak here to notice noise circa 887,
913; and no longer listed as such in NRC AM Log (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Jan 30 at 0653, R. Vanuatu is JBA still here,
unchecked whether 7890 & 11835 after 0659 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Jan 30
at 0656: 855-2, 1044, 1089 kHz. Lowers would be Spain, but none on
1089, rather 700+ kW of TalkSport synchros, UK. No 846 TP Kiritimati
this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10001 USB, Jan 30 at 0718, 2-way intermittent, unseems
Spanish; inadvisable right next to WWV/H! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Jan 29 at 0644, RHC in English, S9+10/20, supposed to
be Spanish only and off much earlier; while the correct English
frequencies of 5040, 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, 12000 are all OFF
already. 11760 is still on at 0732 starting jazz show, S9+10.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, Sun Jan 29 at 1600, RHC on here at S9/+10, not 13700,
but no spurs; Spanish ID and supposedly only on 11760 & 15140 after
1600. IS, and opening Esperanto, 1603 wrong info for all three weekly
broadcasts as I have quoted time and again. Today Esp`o not only on
usual 11760 and 15140 but extras 13740 and by 1610, 15230 is also
still on, JBM S9. 15140 is S9+20/30 with adequate modulation level but
some squeal. Somethings` always wrong at RHC. EiBi shows 13700 at
1400-1600 only, but 13740 at 1200-1600 & 2200-0500; 15230 at 1300-1600
& 2300-0600, no mention of Esperanto for any except 11760 & 15140
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** DENMARK [and non]. 25800, Jan 29 at 1615, JBA carrier the OSOB,
while Andy Robins & Harold Frodge in MI, Andy Reid in Ontario, have
been getting more than that before and at 1700 today. It`s World Music
Radio, 60 watts, 24/7 per op SHN as of 12/31. Per Aoki & EiBi it`s the
only SWBC station active on the 11 mb. There used to be something DRM
from Germany? HFCC shows imaginary registrations from Bulgaria 26000,
Vatican 26010 for IRDR; and WMR might alternatively use 25795 or
25805.

A few years ago there were US low-power NBFM ``remote pickup`` or
``talkback`` transmitters, 25870 from WFLA, 25950 from Denver, 25990
from The Metroplex, or vice versa? And several more in the 26.1-26.5
range, all gone now? Never reported or listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NETHERLANDS. 6020, Jan 29 at 0733, JBA carrier, presumed Delta
Radio International, as being reported active as far away as BC by
Walt Salmaniw. Per EiBi, only other signal now would be Vietnam, but
well before sunset there. 6020 suffers from 6030 Cuban jamming against
nothing bleedover. DRI also on 11730 but no signal there here. It`s a
low-powered, irregular, ex-pirate (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 29 at 0635, VON is S9+20/30 with music but just
barely modulated. Something`s always abysmal at Abuja. Ron Howard was
also hearing it modulating before 0700 yesterday. Manuel Méndez and
Walt Salmaniw also hearing it before 0700 today. For me today it`s
still on and JBM past 0741 at S9/+10. Supposed to switch from Hausa to
Fulfulde at 0700; English after 0800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.072, Jan 29 at 1612, S9+10/20, the SSOB
in African language, from USAGM`s most capable off-frequency site,
Pinheira. EiBi shows VOA this semihour in KNK, which is keyed to mean
``KinyaRwanda/KiRundi service of VOA, BBC``. How different are they?

** VANUATU [and non]. 7260, Jan 29 at 0635, JBA carrier from R.
Vanuatu; by 0730 check, 11835 S8/S9 with island music, 3 x 3945.
Compared at 0735 to NZ on 13755: S9+10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split 9/kHz MW carrier search, Jan 29
at 0636, trying earlier than usual: 693, 774, 855, 1053, 1521. 693
probably BBC Radio 5 Live synchros almost 300 kW total; 1053 Talk
Sport from UK, 500 kW altho also weaker Spaniards listed; 774 and 855
likely Spains as usual. Notably absent is 684, used to be 600 kW from
Sevilla RNE1, but power cut since last year, or off? MWlist.org shows
24h at 150/100 kW, which ought to be detectable here if the other
weaker ones are. As it`s Sunday, no TP signal on 846 from Kiritimati
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
