** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Jan 28 at 1515, zero signals from
LRA36 into the few SDRs online, 2 in Argentina, 1 in Uruguay and 1 in
Brasil. Supposed to be another Saturday special at 1500 & 1900. Manuel
Méndez whatsapped them and got reply that they *are* on the air, but
still we are hearing nothing; propagation? I doubt it. Then I try the
webcast link via Nacional Argentina webpage but no connexion. Then MM
gets a reply with a different webcast link which worx for both of us:
https://sa.mp3.icecast.magma.edge-access.net/sc_rad35

I start at 1617, talk about Antarctica; 1625 cut to ``RAE Argentina to
the World`` multilingual ID reel including English, then about another
base, Petrel, but lost contact. 1627 rock song. 1631 ID; 1633 Nicole
on phone, apparently operating on ham band. 1635 off air recording of
first day on air 20/10/1979. 1638-1650 call from Romina, one of the 4
YLs of the ex-2022 crewe. 1652 acknowledges SW propagation NG today,
but got webcast. 1653 scripted piece about ``La Juventud``. 1655 outro
credits for ``Uniendo Voces``, into songs.

After 1900, still no SW signal into the nearest remotes. 1922 I`m on
the webcast again and hear repeats of same thing including the 1979
ID, at 1945, and then Romina, etc. After 2000 keeps playing silently
except for an autotimesignal at 2030 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA [non]. `Calling All Radio Nutzz`, webcast via Unique
Radio, Sat Jan 28 after 1900 with GB and Jen, including Slavic
languages introduced by Dr Richard E Wood; and The Two Bobs flying
over Switzerland with ham contacts. Before and after 2000 playing
classic interval signals, some also with anthems. Then GB plays some
ham contacts with him as M1ELK. His true name seems to be a closely
guarded secret, but I found a post from M1ELK somewhere as Michael
Dawson, and on ham bands his handle is Mike rather than GB. I guess
that merely means he`s in Great Britain, part of UKOGBANI (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 346 MCW kHz, Jan 28 at 0716 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watt ND
beacon at Sioux Lookout, Ontario

382 MCW kHz, Jan 28 at 0712 UT, dash and YPL, 1000 watt NDB at Pickle
Lake, Ontario, just enough to overcome my local noise hump. I daresay
that beacons like these really put such remote spots on the map (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 28174 CW, Jan 28 at 2232, E E E E E E E E E E VVV DE
VE1VDM/B --- and very long pauses between repeats. This explains it on
the WI5V 10m beacon reference: ``28.174 VE1DVM C TRURO, NOVA SCOTIA,
CA, 1.2 min CW, then QSY to QRSS and WSPR-CW bands in sequence``

QRZ.com: VE1VDM Canada flag Canada
Vernon Matheson, 392 Onslow Road, UPPER ONSLOW, NS B6L 5K9, Canada
``Presently I have an AA7DJ 10m beacon on 28.174.0 at 10 watts into a
10 meter dipole at approximately 20' AGL. Grid square is FN85ij for
this beacon. 73 de Vernon``

Quick check of other 10m sigs finds that beacon in BC and phonehams in
western Washington, some kind of contest. F2 single-hop skip distances
at 28+ MHz are such that reception from far corners of the continent
are most likely (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Jan 28 at 0658, S9/+10 of dead air, but off the air
by next check 0730; anyhow V of Nigeria is not totally dead yet. Last
times I heard it were Jan 5/7/9, all with little or no modulation, and
well after 0700. Maybe it were pointlessly on more dates before 0700?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960.000+, Jan 28 at 2344, nothing but Chinese into
UTwente, so VOT English to N America is again a failure, ceding to
EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs
and other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 344 MCW kHz, Jan 28 at 0715 UT, JL, 25 watt ND beacon at
JopLin MO; tuned to 342 USB, just above 341 EI EnId; seldom heard
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday January 28 at 0140 the 0130 on WRMI 5850, S8 into Maryland
SDR.

Also confirmed UT Saturday January 28 at 0500 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130, S9/+15 into Virginia SDR, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR but better S/N
ratio. Offsets compared: Maryland -7/8 Hz; Virginia - 14/15 Hz. Both
cannot be right, so then I compare them on 5000.000 WWV: Maryland -0.2
to +0.3; Virginia, -6.6 to -7.1 Hz so the latter must not be believed.
Of course, WWV would not be varying 0.5 Hz: must be SDRs`
instability.

Also confirmed Saturday January 28 at 1700 on WRN N America webcast.

Also confirmed from 2033 UT Saturday January 28 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, VG
S9+20 into nearby remote by groundwave.

Also confirmed Saturday January 28 at 2230 on WRMI 15770, S9/+5
direct; and once again NOT on scheduled 5850: after ID 2229.5, music
plays, apparently fill rather than a specific program; and listed //
7730 is still imaginary. Next:

** U S A. Preparing for `AAAWWW` on WBCQ at 0100-0200 UT Saturday
January 28, from 0056 I check the SW frequencies via Maryland SDR:
6160 -63 Hz = 6159.937; 5130 with IS & ID, +3/5 Hz = 5130.004; 7490
-62 Hz = 7489.938; 3265+ off. This time I stay on 7490- instead of
switching to its webcast. 0100 `WTO` theme and Allan`s first words are
``magnificent bastards``, so this is a new live one. 0102 he has to
cough, but beautiful Angela is by his side so both in Deland of Fla
now. Explains that two weeks ago on a flight back from Maine he caught
something, not COVID which has been bothering him ever since, felt
like crap. Flight was from Presqu`île to Orlando/Sanford.
Pressurization also blew his left ear, deaf there for three days;
anyhow explains why no new show last week. Complains about inflation,
eggs up from less than a dollar a dozen to $ 10 - really? Blames
government in general, 535 members of congress dismissed with an
expletive.

``We did not have to have a war in Ukraine`` -- whew: tell that to
Putin. 0114 the early history of tape recording, invented by the
Nazis. 0123 as trimulcasting asking for reports. No specific
datestamp. 0132 should keep SW and not move everything to the cloud.
Discussing hamfests missed and to be attended. Call from Mr
Transistor. 0138 trimulcasting on 7, 6, 5 MHz. 0141 call from Niagara
Falls, Ontario, reception in a hotel. Explains meterbands MUFs. Refers
to 5G article by Wilner in Radio World. BCQ website may be hacked,
beware. Number of AM stations in US declining but not by as much as
you would think: lost 25 last year. 0158 invites Angela to pray but
she hands it back to him. Maybe only a semiminute late joining Hal
Turner. Again this week never heard a reference to ``our president
T****`` during AAAWWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA 9/kHz split MW carrier search, Jan 28
from 0704, not in the order tuned: 558-2, 774-2, 855-2, 882, 1044,
1521. Also 846 TP Kiritimati. At first 855 had one unusually strong
signal, thought I might get some audio, but a few minutes later just
two weakers beating. 1521 continues to be mysterious, as nothing but a
5 kW in Spain should be possible this late; no Africans listed. Others
also likely Spain, with Canary alternatively on 882 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 0019 UT January 29

** CUBA. 11760, Jan 27 at 0737, S5/S9 of dead air: this time must be
RHC, as France finishes at 0730; only thing listed is CNR1.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH. 6155, Jan 27 at 0757, chiming IS interspersed with
Japanese announcements, S5/S6; 0800 KBSWR opening theme. Is direct
far2 beyond neighborly target (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Jan 27 at 2300, token English from REE, S9+10/20
into Maryland SDR with news; 2308 interview by Justin Coe about
Sécanos Vivos = Drylands Alive, managing olive lands, biodiversity;
2317 comments by Allan? Moore with whom he visited the Martin Wong
exhibition last week, about criminality and art, graffiti and
gayness. 2322 interview with an opera, zarzuela singer, Cristina --?,
and going out at 2325 with her singing Habañera from Carmen: seems
like amateur recording, marred by some snags/wows; and she is not
finished by the 2330 timesignal and switch to French. I`m
simulmonitoring TURKEY, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.001+, Jan 27 at 2307, VOT S9+25/35 into UTwente, after
news, Review of the Turkish Press mainly about Erdogan pissed at
Sweden allowing a Dane to burn a Qur`an. By 2311 the usual CCCCCCI has
started from East Turkistan, standard denunciation, but quite
underweaker. 2313 Weekly Commentary on the same subject, by a
professor, who says this went beyond freedom of expression which is
not unlimited if it ``hurts`` someone. 2320 multilingual filler ID
reel; this time I note Persian, ``inja ---``, and see that is not a
VOT SW language per WRTH. 2326 Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring
repeat about herbal remedies for constipation in children. How many
Americans will have heard and followed such advice?? 2353 recheck
going from s/off schedule to IS.
2356 restarts IS now interspersed with German IDs; 2300 timesignals
mixing with CCCCCCI and s/on German with a timecheck for 1830. German
still going at 0023, but off by 0044 with Urumqi uncovered.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Until 2330 I was
simulmonitoring SPAIN, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. Jan 26 was reportedly the final day for BBC in Arabic
after 85 years! Since Ivo posted the schedule, I`m checking UTwente on
9585 from 1657 Jan 27.

``U.K.(non) BBC's Arabic service bids farewell to the world

Also on MW 639 CYP and 720 CYP 0300-0700 and 1700-2100 UT.``

No signal on 9585 until at 1700, ``WorldService.com``, S9+10/20 but
carrier cuts off and on again, no modulation in Arabic or English,
finally turned off at 1702.5*. I guess the UAE operators were not
quite sure whether there would still be any Arabic feed to emit; still
off past 1716. It might be interesting to check starts of the other
formerly scheduled broadcasts: 6150 at 1855-1902: nothing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Some ND beacons JBA now with lower noise level, no lightning
anywhere in North America or vicinity per Blitzortung:

329 MCW kHz, Jan 27 at 0725 UT, PMV, 25-watt ND beacon at Plattsmouth
NE.

347 MCW kHz, Jan 27 at 0724 UT, AFK, 25-watt NDB at Nebraska City NE.

356 MCW kHz, Jan 27 at 0723 UT, ODX, 25-watt NDB at Ord, Nebraska:
probably my most productive beacon state beyond OK even tho it`s
second-adjacent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2175 monitoring: Confirmed first
SWBC, UT Friday January 27 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, good S8/S9 into
Maurice LA SDR. Preceded by Firedragon-like music at 0329, no ID
break; and still starts with noise blast over first 14 seconds, not
moved to start 15 seconds later!

Time for the Romania item about folk music was upcut: should be 0230.

Not confirmed Friday January 27 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, since that
frequency is already off when first checked at 1520; unlike last
Friday when it permanested past 1600. However still on webcast at
1530, checked at 1556. Again followed at 1559 by Firedragon-like
music; 1600 into Deutsche Welle, Africa Link on WRN. Why is this in
Bonn rather than Köln or Berlin? System B sked still claims 9955 does
not change to Internet only until 1630! I recheck the stream at 1630
when `Let the Bible Speak` starts as sked on Fridays only.

Also confirmed Friday January 27 at 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1323 kHz only, S7/S8 vs HNL into Parma SDR; when Noale accessed at

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Jan 25 after 1600, no LRA36 signal
into Argentine SDR; nor any expected on Wed so not up to check at
1500. However, it seems they are going to continue on Saturdays only:

``[WOR] Antarctica. Special broadcast of 15476 LRA 36 announced for

LRA 36 next broadcast will take place on coming Saturday 28, at 12 LU,
1500 UT and then, rebroadcast at 16 LU, 1900 UT on 15476 khz USB.

Okay, I learned that it's happening to be difficult to put the signal
into Europe and North America, as they are only 500 W power, despite
the higher level of solar activity; but then, they there are. 73 de
Horacio Nigro, Uruguay, CX3BZ, Jan 24``

Manuel Méndez, Spain: ``Another WhatsApp received right now,
clarification of the previous one from the station:

"Este programa es solamente especial de verano, se emite los sábados a
las 12 horas de Argentina, con repetición a las 16 horas. En marzo
comenzaremos a emitir los primeros programas de la temporada anterior
[sic] y ahí sí que ya habrá programa los miércoles".

"This program is only a summer special, it is broadcast on Saturdays
at 1200 Argentinian time, with repetition at 1600. In March we will
begin to transmit the first programs of the previous [sic] season and
there will be program on Wednesdays."``

``Presenting Evening Classics with Curt Timmons

Classical KUCO is excited to announce Evening Classics with Curt
Timmons, a two-hour, locally produced program presenting extended
selections from 10 p.m. to midnight each weeknight beginning Monday,
Jan. 23. In addition to his noon to 3 p.m. weekday hosting, our very
own Curt Timmons is graciously paving the way to offer beautiful,
complete pieces of music in a thematic and thoughtful presentation
blended with insightful commentary.

“I am excited to produce Evening Classics for our late-evening
listeners. This is the perfect opportunity to enjoy favorite
masterworks and play some more unusual offerings from our KUCO library
and my personal collection,” Timmons said.

KUCO’s presentation of well-known orchestras will begin at 7 p.m., New
York Symphony Mondays; Chicago Symphony Tuesdays; The WFMT Orchestra
Series Wednesdays; Performance Oklahoma with Kimberly Powell
Thursdays; and, American Public Media’s SymphonyCast Fridays.

Performance Oklahoma, with Kimberly Powell, has moved Wednesday
evenings to Thursdays providing listeners, and even performers, who
attend church and choir the ability to enjoy the beautiful, local
performances numerous individuals work so hard to make happen.
Performance Oklahoma continues to encore at 8 a.m., Saturdays.

Following the orchestral programs at 9 p.m., will be The Sound of 13
Mondays; Gameplay Tuesdays; With Heart and Voice Wednesdays; Feminine
Fusion Thursdays; and, Hearts of Space Fridays.

According to Timmons, “Evening Classics will feature historic and
rarely heard recorded performances, which is a passion of mine as a
recording collector and musician. I hope our listeners will find some
old, as well as new favorites.”

Evening Classics with Curt Timmons aligns with the Classical KUCO
mission to present locally produced, long-format music to our
listening members as we strive to advance the appreciation of
classical music as Oklahoma’s Voice for the Performing Arts.

Classical KUCO is community-supported outreach of the University of
Central Oklahoma and can be heard on 90.1FM/HD1 throughout central
Oklahoma, 91.9FM/HD1 in McAlester, 95.9FM in Woodward and streamed on
kucofm.com, iHeart, Amazon Alexa devices, Bose’s SoundTouch network,
and mobile devices with the free Classical KUCO app at GooglePlay and
the Apple App Store.``

Still unaccounted for are `module` programs, notably StarDate, so I
ask GM Jeff Hagy: he says it`s straight-up noon M-F; and a brand-new
website is about ready to launch next week: http://www.kucofm.com

Meanwhile I have been seeking StarDate elsewhere:
Features On Texarkana Public Radio: own website claims:
Stardate - Daily 11:04 A.M. & 7:00 P.M.
http://ktxkweb.texarkanacollege.edu:8000/listen.pls
but FAILS to appear at or around 7 pm = 0100 UT Jan 24. Then, Manager
thanked me for noticing and restored it UT Jan 25 (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** ROMANIA. 7410 // 5990, UT Wed Jan 25 at 0237-0248, both S9+20 with
Romanian folk music, French announcements, matching Alan Roe`s Music
on SW schedule, ``Musique traditionnelle roumaine`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Jan 25 at 2306, token English from REE after COVID
stats on news, into part 2 of last week`s feature on `El camino del
Anillo``, Tolkien stuff not interesting me; over to simulTurkey. But
first quick check of //s: 9690 S9+10/25 into Maryland SDR > 12030 >
11940 all usable, and still NO 11670 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.001+, Jan 25 at 2308, VOT English S9+25/35
into UTwente, final news item about excavations at Luxor, Egypt; 2309
`Review of the Turkish Press`` a few brief headlines starting with:
Erdogan blasts Netherlands for disrespecting a Qur`an book. [Why does
he blame entire NATO allies or applicants for axions of some isolated
radicals in free societies? I hereby permit Turx to burn as many
Bibles as they may wish: there are plenty more -gh]. 2310 the CCCCCCI
starts underneath from XJPBS, East Turkistan, land of imperialist
ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems: does Erdogan care
about that?

2311 multi-lingual ID filler reel including some langs not for VOT on
SW in WRTH 2022: Albanian, Japanese, Portuguese; no doubt there are
more. 2313 `Gripping[?] Files` something about digital security
involving Meta/FB/Habitat NGO; CCCCCCI is at worse N/S ratio now. 2317
songs. 2324 `Weekly Commentary`, same one heard before about
``Turkey`s role in Western security considerations - why Turkey is
indispensable``. 2331 music. 2337 `Feeling Supreme` a.k.a. `Healing
Spring` on herbal remedies for constipation in children. 2346 recheck
already in music again. 2353 s/off with English skeds in jumbled
order. 2355 IS; 2356 cut off uncovering XJPBS, S8/9+5 on 5960.000+

** U S A. 395 MCW kHz, Jan 25 at 0735 UT, CA, 25-watt ND beacon at
Newton / Harvs KS; and:

407 MCW kHz, Jan 25 at 0735 UT, HRU, 25-watt NDB at Herington KS: both
JBA but first time in months I have been able to relog these
semi-locals, as the local noise peak around 395 has diminished altho
slightly more than otherwise. Maybe due to snowcover? And maybe only
temporary; or neighbors going and coming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2174 monitoring. Did anyone hear it Wed Jan
25 at 1030 on WRMI 5850? Deleted from sked but another report of it
still on a week ago:

** U S A. 7495-7545 approx., Jan 25 at 0234, noise field extending out
+/- 25 kHz from 7520, so I am tempted to blame it on the WWCR-4
transmitter with overpowering signal, S9+40/50 of TOMBS, which is
perhaps partly to blame for dirty satellite audio feed out of
Walterboro during Scourby Bibling. There are also various audio
artefacts within 10 kHz of 7520 which is typical of TOMBS, despite the
rather lo-fi audio if tuned to center frequency and avoiding the
extended sidebands. WWCR et al. ought to filter out that feed! #4 is
on 90-degree rhombic, but I bet it put as much signal off the back
thisaway. Need to have a look at a waterfall in the blast zone between
00 and 03 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9338, Jan 25 at 0749, very rapid RTTY not noticed before,
too close to hugesig from 9330v WBCQ, not enough to bother WBCQ but
vice versa? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. At first: UNIDENTIFIED. 12050, Jan 25 at 0226, S9/+10 with
flutter, JBA can`t make out language. Nothing supposed to be on now;
could it be WEWN extending its daytime-only Spanish service past 2400
here, since 5970 night frequency has been off for months, inoperable?
CNR1 jammer shown at very different times in EiBi. Indeed, next
evening UT Jan 26 at 0015, strong gospel huxter in Spanish still going
on 12050. Own website is no help: still showing outdated A22 skeds
with CDT/UTC, as if 24 hpd in Spanish, 18 hpd in English, long gone:

Not even the Spanish sexion has any details about SW:

** U S A. 1700 kHz, Jan 25 at 0346 UT, dead air atop 2 or 3 other
signals. Bet I know which it is, but DF it on the DX-398: yes,
slightly CCW from N/S, i.e. toward The Metroplex, KKLF Richardson TX.
#2 on 1700 is KBGG Des Moines IA, with the others in AL, FL, NY and
RGV TX maybe audible but blocked. The Jalapeño is silent. 0726
recheck: TexMexmx resumed, Jalapeño ID in passing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890 & 11835, Jan 25 at 0743, R. Vanuatu harmonix of 3945
are both JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
