** 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:

** 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)

** 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

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

Nashville, about halfway to Arkansas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. ``Glenn, regarding 1540 kHz: KGBC is now running a Spanish

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)

This report dispatched at 2315  UT October 29

B24 SCHEDULES at EiBi, Aoki/NDXC and HFCC are now linked from WOR
homepage http://www.worldofradio.com

** CHAD [non]. 9535, Oct 28 at 0608, YL in language with stingers,
S5/S7. Per EiBi this is now R. Ndarason International in Kanuri, 06-07
via Woofferton UK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 5910, Oct 28 at 0313, no signal from CRI relay via La
Habana as now sked at 0300-0500 per HFCC, ex-9790. COLOMBIA is
long-gone from 5910 but still in Aoki, not EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 7335, Oct 28 at 0307, pulse jamming against nothing, since R.
Martí is now on 7355, and 7435. So the jamming is back, wasting
precious pesos of electrical energy. RM changes its 7 MHz usage per
season for no obvious reason, but confusing incompetent jammers who
don`t pay attention to HFCC. RM so strong that cannot tell if jammed
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, Oct 28 at 0306, S9+10/20 of jazz, the
OPOB. These say it`s Wasteland Radio, a.k.a. Dilligaf Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,135802.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. Mon Oct 28 at 2245, REE found NOWHERE into UTwente or
Maryland SDRs, on A24 17855, 17715, 15520, 15390 nor B24 9690, 11940,
12030, 17755 frequencies! There have been some R1 blackouts per WWV
but there ought to be at least traces of something. Of course, I was
preparing to check if English would occur at B24 time of 2300,
especially on B24 for NAm, 9690. ¡¿Qué pasa?! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 9610, Oct 27 at 2205, VOT English new time from
2130, and frequency, with `Letterbox` theme - just starting? NO,
ending. S9+20/25 into UTwente but heavy CCI. B24 EiBi shows CNR8 in
Mongolian, 100 kW, 286 degrees from Beijing site at 2055-0600. TRT
should have avoided this frequency.

5960.004-, Oct 27 at 2300, TS and s/on VOT English to NAm, new time
and frequency for B24, S9+35/40 into UTwente, but there is an
understation. This time it`s PBS Xinjiang, Urumqi in Mandarin, at
2300-0300 per EiBi, 2330-1800 per HFCC. I know this will be unusable
direct: yes, at 2307 S8/S9 below the noise level, but Urumqi probably
not a problem here. They need to have a `shoulder` season with
something less drastic than a drop from 12 to 6 MHz. Also, domestic
clock changes should not be imposed upon international listeners.

`Letterbox` starts at 2314, with another hostess, Sylvia? Says they
are trying different program presenters each week. Mentions that
frequencies have changed but no details, look them up somewhere. I try
to copy those called but as usual hard to understand the names. 1)
Burnett?, England. 2) Christer Brunström, Sweden, 20/10 report, again
against the multi-lingual ID filler reels, but guess what: VOT are
adding some more langs, including Norwegian, Korean, Japanese! for
total of 47. 3) India, about the Dewali festival. Music break at 2323.
5) Mohamed Bashir?, Pakistan. 6) Ricky Hein, from a phone call, wants
skeds. 7) Graham?, Indiana. 8) Chris ---, Canada. Closing with PO Box
33 address again, instead of 333 - which is correct? Does not spell
Yenishehir. 2332 music. 2335 L`Box outro (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9650, Oct 28 at 0606, YL in Turkish presumed news, with
stingers, S6/S8 direct; at 04-07 per EiBi, i.e. ex-13635 which was
easy every night but not logged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Oct 28 at 2258 and still 2309, NO signal from
VOT English to us, which succeeded yesterday, but plenty signal from
Xinjiang PBS into UTwente, 5960.000 with Chinese music, dead air, 2300
5+1 TS and Xinjiang ID in Mandarin, i.e. EAST TURKISTAN. TRT should
QSY ASAP if they can even get on the air, but they need to inform
everyone whereto. I tuned UTwente around between 5800 and 6000, not
encountering any obvious TRT. Something`s always awry at Ankara and/or
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 9775, Oct 28 at 0312, VOA English with African accent,
about *rump being called fascist, S9+10/20. Now sked at 03-05 via
BOTSWANA and per Aoki, *jammed because can be heard in China, where
ESL is unfortunately rampant (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2266 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 27 at 2000 ex-1900 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.995 kHz, S9
into UTwente across Europe; after 7285 s/off announcement, not checked
yet whether really on 7290 in B24.

Also confirmed Sunday October 27 at 2230 ex-2130 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.003+, S8/9+5 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday October 27 at 2330 on WRMI 7780, S9/+15 into S
Texas SDR, like last week instead of scheduled 7570, remaining
absent.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+10/15
into S Texas SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 28 at 0302 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.93, S9+10/20 direct but including noise level so JBA: all I can
do is recognize the WOR theme, not which episode I intro.

Missed checking Mon Oct 28 at 2030 on SW Radio, Germany, 3975, as we
were on the road from Artesia; anyone hear it?

Not confirmed UT Tue Oct 29 at 0100 on WRMI 9955, usual Alameda Bible

** U S A [and non]. WHAT`S GOING ON WITH WAVESCAN, from Ray Robinson:

``Hi, Glenn. We haven't communicated in some time, but I trust you are
well. You may be interested in some of the fallout from AWR's decision
to end the use of all shortwave relay sites.

Jeff White and I were provided with the new schedule for KSDA about 10
days or so ago, and the immediately obvious thing was that there were
no English language programs on the schedule at all, including no
Wavescan. We have sought clarification from a number of people at AWR,
but have not received any response. No one at AWR has informed us that
Wavescan has been canceled, but it seems that is their intention, at
least in so far as their own platforms are concerned. Jose Jacob in
India has confirmed that Wavescan was not broadcast via KSDA on
Sunday, and furthermore this week's edition has not been posted on
AWR's podcast page ( https://awr.org/program/engmi_wav ).

However, the show will very much continue in production with Jeff and
I, just as before, but I guess now just as 'Wavescan' and not 'AWR
Wavescan' any longer. To be clear, neither Jeff nor I have any
association with AWR, or with the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Dr.
Adrian Peterson, Wavescan's Founder and Editor-in-Chief did of course,
but he is now in his mid-90's, and he retired from any active
involvement with the show some 18 months ago.

So, we are now in active negotiations to get the show carried by one
or two other shortwave stations with coverage into Asia. It will
continue on WRMI, WWCR, VOH-Africa and IRRS. And, there is now a new
podcast platform for the show, at:
https://wavescan.podomatic.com

This has the shows from the past couple of months, including the
edition that aired yesterday on some stations.

We see Wavescan as complementary to what you do on WOR, and not as a
competitor. I hope you'll help us get the word out that Wavescan is
continuing, and where it can be found.

Thank you, Ray Robinson, Los Angeles, Strategic Communications Group,
Voice of Hope World Radio Network, www.voiceofhope.com ``

My reply: ``Ray, Good to hear from you. Certainly I will publicize
what is happening. It seems you have been treated rather shoddily. I`m
not that surprised since it has long seemed to me that AWR HQ
considered WS not really part of AWR, not including it on official
schedules, at least when aired on non-AWR stations. I agree our
programs are complementary with your emphasis on history and mine on
the latest info. 73, Glenn`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, Oct 28 at 0311, WMLK with DEJOM, S9+20/37 direct,
stronger than neighbor in more ways than one, 9265 WINB. Now sensible
frequency usage at night, ex-15150, but why target Europe where it`s 3
or 4 am? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1539.95 approx., Oct 28 at 2200, obvious het vs 1540.00
stations. Nothing this far off in mwoffsets, but I remember a few
years ago KGBC Galveston TX was showing up exactly here; a bit early
before sunset now but maybe not too early on hiband. See my report of
Oct 11, 2020 at 0055. At 2330 I check the W5GMD Houston KiwiSDR, but
it appears to be deaf on MW: can`t even hear or see 740 KTRH! Try
Maurice LA SDR: signal pileup on 1540 but low audible het and SAM does
read out -22 to - 95 Hz. IIRC KGBC has had a number of problems last
few years (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

implies Portuguese colonies but now this is merely Portugal, QRZ.com:
``CR6T Portugal flag Portugal, RUI SANTOS (TONY), QTA DO VALE -

lotsa Eurosigs could obviously propagate if energized. Axually 21449
is in the *13*, not 14, not 15 m band, the boundary between 13 and 14

** U S A. 4840, UT Sun Oct 27 at 0315, WWCR again with `Australian DX
Report`, Bob Padula. It`s different than previous ones, but still
OBVIOUSLY OVER FOUR YEARS OLD, from mid-2000. Prop report: IPS Sydney
says 10.7 cm flux is about 70; SS number 5; two SS regions in view and
another one soon; very low; HF prop above 10 MHz after dark
unreliable.

Then his routine logs, 2030/2100 UT on the 31 and 49m bands. I copy
them all for amusement and historical record but will not foist them
all upon you again; they include 9420 Voice of Greece, lots of CRI and
CNR1, who cares even then? Also a partial Reach Beyond Australia
schedule. 0325 a bit of music, then once again notifies that HFCC for
Bulgaria in August has been canceled due to COVID-19, will be online
only. And gives partial ``B-20`` -- there, he said it, sked for
International Radio for Disaster Relief [which AFAIK, has NEVER been
activated despite plenty of disasters]. ``I hope you found this
interesting and helpful`` -- NO, WORSE THAN NO! Way to go, disservice
WWCR. BTW they carried WORLD OF RADIO for many years, which was full
of accurate timely info every week, but how should they know? They
gave it up but keep this?!?! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15150, Oct 27 at 1453, S9 Yahweh stuff: WMLK have finally
come to their senses or consulted Propagation 101, that higher
frequencies are best for day paths, lower for night. Until B24, 15150
toward Europe was running late in the night and 9275 in the daytime,
local afternoons. But now the HFCC sked is: 12-17 15150, 1730-2230 NEW
17525, 2300-0400 9275, all 300 kW at 53 degrees daily except
7=Sabbathday. So they are allowing one semi-hour to accomplish
frequency changes? Off 15150 by 1700. At 1735, NEW 17524.999 is on,
S9/+15 into UTwente with amateur hymnody; preacher thru 1800 with no
ID. 1829 DEJOM himself outroes, ID. But they can`t make his ghost say
``17525``? AI not? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. 15490, Oct 27 at 1455, S Asian song S8/S9. HFCC B24 shows
VR in Tamil at 1450-1510, between Hindi & Malayalam, 250 kW at 89
degrees, another example of SMG putting far too much signals in wrong
direxions -- antenna azimuths messed up or simply insufficiently
screened backwards? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** YEMEN [non]. 11934.894+, Oct 27 at 1930, S9+25 into UTwente, ME
music and Arabic talk from Rep. of Yemen R., via SAUDI ARABIA, remains
very reliably offset like this, and with no chirping for a long time.
Riyadh abstains from HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
