However, by 0732 when I check it direct, DRM noise at S9+35, so *0730?
It seems I am alone interested in this. Others ought to be awake and

** ANTARCTICA. Posted at 1928 UT Jan 31 to the WOR iog by Horacio
Nigro:

``BREAKING NEWS [TODAY JANUARY 31] TEST BROADCAST OF LRA 36 NATIONAL
RADIO ARCHANGEL SAN GABRIEL. Technicians Alejandro Petrecca and
Claudio García, with the collaboration of personnel in Base Antártica
Conjunta Esperanza, under the orders and supervision of Base Chief
Lieutenant Colonel Juan Pablo Escobedo, are progressing in the repair
of the Collins HF80 shortwave transmitter and announce the execution
of test broadcasts.

The test broadcasts will take place today, Wednesday, January 31,
between 20:00 and 22:00 UTC on 15476 USB. Adjustment signals,
identifications, and music will be transmitted with brief
interruptions.

We deeply appreciate the immediate dissemination of this information
in groups and channels of Radio Listeners, DXers, and Ham Radio
operators. We also look forward to receiving listening reports, audio
and/or video recordings, and your feedback on this occasion via email
to qslrae@gmail.com

73 and Thank you very much. Adrián Korol [translation via IA asking it
for the best syntax, by Horacio Nigro, Uruguay. Source, direct message
via WhatsApp]``
Manuel Méndez had first posted another version at 1919. Tnx to both!

So I bring up 15476 USB on an Argentine SDR at 1954 and hear a bit of
music test before silence, but resuming promptly at 2000 with ID and
songs, S9+10 sufficient, as good a signal as before. At 2035 check I
could not hear it direct, but several North Americans were getting it
poorly. Spot chex later found only music except at 2151 the RAE
multilingual ID reel.

Unknown when RNASG may resume regular Saturday? broadcasts, with this
old but repaired transmitter before the new 10 kW be installed (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 31 at 0741, R. Rebelde frequency on air but with
congratulations on 25th anniversary of Habana Radio, so still relaying
that FM station, as others also note. Wonder for how much longer and
if this affect R.R. MW frequencies? Among countless ones, I am not
getting any clear reception to compare, 670, 710, 1620 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Jan 31 at 1540, RHC music S9+25, overmodulated and
distorted, splattering plus/minus 10 kHz or so. // 15230 much weaker
but clearer S6/S7. At 1544 I check // 11760 which is similarly
splattering, but not the spurblobs every 4.3 kHz as yesterday.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA [and non]. 17790, Jan 31 at 1537, about equal level mixture
of WRMI in English and RRI in Romanian: a failure of HF coordination
with a one-hour overlap, despite loads of vacant frequencies on the 16
mb. Perhaps radically different target areas did not energize any red
flags: RRI Galbeni, 285 degrees for France, and WRMI 160 degrees for C
& S America hoping it will also reach original target Africa, as
before eastward antenna was hurricaned (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Jan 31 at 2300, token English from SNR after accurate
timesignal, first biminute previewing later topic: interview about the
Royal Collexions Gallery; 2302 news mainly about an amnesty vote
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.002, Jan 31 at 2311, VOT not off the air, S9+10 direct
but needs more vs noise level. 2336 into UTwente when measured,
S9+30/40 with `The Middle East and Turkey` about relations with
Kuwait; 2342 music; 2346 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, 2347 `Sports
Panorama` with the badax; buts off at 2351* I think early before any
s/off could be uttered but I was not listening closely; uncovering of
course the XJRTV understation in Chinese from another land of
genocide, ChiCom-controled East Turkistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365 MCW kHz, Jan 31 at 0748, AA, 100-watt ND beacon at Fargo
/ Harwood ND. A few other regulars/occasionals JBA vs local noise
level which is slightly less above 350 or so (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 35790, Jan 31 at 2312, JBA carrier presumed from R. Martí,
Grimesland. Still hoping for enough mod to // it to fundamental bigsig
11930. On the R75 there are some stronger carriers in the 35s,
probably birdies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 5909.96, Jan 30 at 0754, music S6/S8 direct, presumed
Alcaraván Radio, now totally in the clear on signature off-frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11760, Jan 30 at 1645 direct, RHC is modulating and
flanked by wobbly spurs approx. 11764.35 and 11755.55. At 1725 now mod
is mostly dead or broken up, and Maryland remote gets spur peaks
approx. 11764.3 & 11755.7 -- something`s always wrong at RHC. At
*1755.5, carrier comes on 11765, which would be BBC via Bulgaria,
French from 1800.

It`s much worse at 2308 check, multiple increasingly diffuse spurs out
of 11760, all approx. at plus & minus 4.3X kHz: 11755.7 & 11764.3;
then audible in range from 11720 to 11812. RNA Brasil 11780 is also
flanked by them circa 11777.2 & 11785.8, but overcomes inbetweener
calculated at 11781.5. Something`s very wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955 USB, Jan 30 at 2320, pirate M&W talking and
laughing, S9+10 but hard to understand. Several others agree on this
unID, and there were some SSTV images:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,124885.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA, 6925 USB, Jan 30 at 2322, pirate talk, sounds like
emphatic preaching, to put it politely. Other reports of same, ID as
Possibilities Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,124884.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.002, Jan 30 at 2300, VOT not off the air, S9/+10
direct, better than yesterday, but too noisy and fadey. Not rechecked
until 2352 into UTwente, as measured, when music goes to the canned
s/off for the 1330 on 13635 only, and IS, S9+30/35 until 2355* chopoff
uncovering the already audible XJRTV, East Turkistan, std
denunciations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 35790, Jan 30 at 2303, JBA carrier on the R75 with
shortwire. Since Don Moman, AB, reported 3rd harmonic of R Martí,
11930, Grimesland NC, on Nov 4, I`ve been checking for this; and a bit
later DXMAP shows a sporadic E MUF of 70 MHz about halfway between us.
First time I`ve heard any trace of it. Guess what, my archive search
shows it was also heard in UK on 3rd March, 2014! as in DXLD 14-10
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. [WOR] I`ll See You on the Radio - Charles Osgood --- This
week`s entire, almost, CBS Sunday Morning is in tribute to its late
former host, Charles Osgood - who accomplished a lot more than that:
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/sunday-morning-full-episode-1-28-2024/

CBS SM is my one absolutely-must-see program. Best viewed on the air,
altho on the web the sesquihour shrinx to only 62 minutes - but you
will be forced to endure commercial breaks even more repetitive than
on the air, tho they may be muted. It`s all worth it, especially this
week (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Jan 30 at 0748, W&M conversation, S7/S8 direct,
presumed R. Vanuatu reactivated, first time heard since earthquake a
week ago, related? Also reported about same time by Gary Pence, TX and
Manuel Méndez, Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1218.1 kHz, Jan 30 at 0756, JBA carrier, het to 1220.00
stations. This time I still hear it on the DX-398 when the NRD-545 is
off, and a very rough DF as NNE/SSW. That implies maybe from 1220
station in KS or IA. Circa 1805 UT, remotes on both sides of IA get
nothing, and KS is busy. By 2123, SDR near Kansas City gets a weak
1220, not 1218+. Of course if could still be one of these with a
different unit at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7295-7300-7305, Jan 30 at 0750, DRM noise S9+20/25. 24
hours ago this was askew centred about 7298 and noise did not sound
quite right. Now it does, but whence? Remains unlisted at HFCC, Aoki,
EiBi and drmrx. I suppose most likely is TDF France which has been
running various pop-up DRM tests. By this late hour I`m almost asleep,
computer is off so no checking remotes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
