Hauser
** CUBA. 11880, Nov 8 at 2344-2353.5* open carrier, and was not there
at tuneby just before. Presumed RHC, last known frequency for 23-24
English hour. I had been checking all current and remembered
frequencies for that, but unfound, nor before 2300. Usual pattern in
EST season is to move it nonsensically one UT hour earlier.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9902.570, S3/S4 of dead air, presumed R. Cairo 9900 S
American disservice. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [and non]. 10m ham contact: see URUGUAY [and non]

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935 USB, Nov 9 at 0011-0043, S9/+10 of pirate
music, jazzy at first; 0028.5 SSTV beepery; 0030.5 back to music, now
hard rock. Never any voice announcements, let alone IDs but this:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,105091.0.html
has many logs of Thunder Chicken Radio with SSTV images including some
fuzzy cheesecake (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5980, Nov 8 at 2150, S5/S8 of music, maybe Turkish? Yes,
VOT scheduled here until 2200. Previous log of unID on 5960 -
frequency was wrong! Delete (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28207 CW, Nov 8 at 2212, E E E E E E E E E E DE N4XRO/B:
``28.2070 N4XRO C BURBANK, CA # 5W Horizontal Hamstick Dipole NEW 29
APRIL 2019`` --- If rated RST, this would get a T of 6 or 7, with a
`chirp` rather than pure tone.

``10-Meter Beacon station is on the air --- As of 0300 UTC April 30,
2019 my IARU Region 2 coordinated beacon is on the air at 28.2070 MHz.
If you happen to tune it in please leave a reception report at
https://dm04.org

Greetings from Burbank, California USA
If you’re on this page it is probably because you tuned in our HF
beacon in the 10-Meter Amateur Radio band on 28.2070 MHz. The station
currently uses a custom made beacon by Vlad, AA7DJ, operating in CW
mode. We are running 5 watts into a Ham Stick horizontal dipole
antenna. Note: The equipment in use varies from time to time based on
operational considerations as well as experimental tests being
performed. Please see the Maintenance Log for detailed information on
what equipment was in use and when. The beacon station has been
operating continuously, contributing to the Amateur Radio community’s
propagation studies since 03:00 UTC, Tuesday, April 30, 2019`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

over Cuban pulse jamming.

Also confirmed UT Wednesday November 9 at 0043 the 0030 ex-2330 on

** U S A. WRMI braces for another hurricane: On Facebook circa 0200 UT
Nov 9: ``WRMI Radio Miami International 2h · Dear WRMI Listeners and
Clients: Believe it or not, another hurricane, this one named Nicole,
is headed straight for our transmitter site in Okeechobee. It's
expected to hit tomorrow, Wednesday, November 9. We are expecting very
high winds and heavy rains. As you know, we just finished repairing
our transmission lines which were severely damaged by Hurricane Ian at
the end of September. So we hope that we won't have to repair them
again. But the situation appears very bad. We will likely have to shut
the station down sometime Wednesday afternoon until the storm moves
through the area, probably sometime on Thursday. However, we may have
a power outage and/or antenna and transmission line damage, so we
cannot say how long we will be off the air. If our Internet service
does not go down, we will continue our Internet stream at www.wrmi.net
Thank you for your good wishes, and we'll let you know what happens``
(via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** URUGUAY [and non]. 28403 USB, Nov 8 at 226, CX9ARH in contact with
JA1TLE, who speaks some fraxured Spanish, mixes in Japanese and
English. Last letter of CX9 sometimes with unrecognizable fonetik,
othertimes as Hotel. They are close to antipodal, both heard equally
well here, as 10m is wide-open also with UStations, but no phoners
above 28.5 MHz, why? even tho there are some collisions in the 28.4s.
CX9ARH keeps the frequency to call CQ Pacific.

** BRAZIL. 9664.794, Nov 8 at 0710, RVM with music on variable
frequency. Had been no signal previous night or two (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Nov 8 at 0721, S8/S9 of dead air. Must be RHC English
not turned off yet. No other RHCs still on air. Lots of stuff listed
on 6165, but nothing else at this hour. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 8 at 2000, RHC opening English hour, but VP
unusable. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Sunday Esperanto
semihour should have been at 2330 or 2230, but Jean-Michel Aubier,
France, heard if Nov 7 at 2146 on 15140 and 13680, but both cut off a
minute or two later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Nov 8 at 2229, S7/S9 of dead air direct except for
whine, no doubt R. Cairo fruitless on air again. Something`s always
egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Nov 8 after 0700, still no signal this month from R.
Mali; nor at 1710 into Canary SDR nor on 9635. Hope not gone for good.
The ChiCom should have been maintaining this along with their Bamako
relay: is that still 100% operational? Of course, coups and
counter-coups, unstable politix. Military have delayed until March
2024, return to civilian rule

https://www.france24.com/en/africa/20220606-mali-junta-announces-two-year-delay-until-democratic-rule
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 13630, Nov 8 at 2158, song at S5/S8 continues thru hourtop,
so not CRI? Yes it is, 2201 ID as ``Fréquence Afrique de RCI``, in a
2130-2230 French relay via Bamako (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.93, Nov 8 circa 0705 still no signal from VON direct
when the frequency is free; at 1803 into Canary SDR, 7255 totally
dominated by CRI Russian via East Turkistan. Of course, evening
channel for VON was originally 11770v or 9690v, but for longtime had
been unwilling or unable to go there, rather 7255v. So now I check
Canary on those alternatives: nothing but heavy ACI to 9690; 11770
clear (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME. 15460.075, Nov 7 at 1616, Afro lang S7/S9, off-frequency
and just barely modulated, VOA Kinyarwanda, 100 kW at 100 degrees. Am
wondering if this site ever manage to maintain frequency accuracy.
There are 5 x 100 kW SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 21630, Nov 7 at 1626, BBCWS in English, S3/S6, the OSOB
and SSOB, 125 kW at 114 degrees from ASCENSION, this hour only. BBC
also here earlier in different languages, different sites (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28216 CW, Nov 8 at 1950, 4 dashes and DE K3FX/B ...,
``28.216 K3FX C NEPTUNE CITY, NEW JERSEY # 5W, 1/2 VERTICAL`` per WI5V
list; among several beacons now on band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday November 8 at 0155 the 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9/+10 direct.
Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW

** U S A. 9329.946V to .959, WBCQ-6/WLCR is finally back on air,
S9+10/20 in English; had been missing for more than a week, and now is
off-frequency minus instead of plus. Varying audibly as I try to
measure it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Nov 8 at 2153, JBA signal here surely not WRMI, off
again, rather RFA Saipan/CNR1 jammer; while 9395 is S9+30; 9955 also
off but back by 2205. WRMI also missing 9455 several hours earlier.
Beware, another Hurrican, Nicole is heading near Okeechobee (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Nov 8 at 0325, no signal from WTWW-1. Not that I miss
PPPP, but come to think of it, random tuning has not encountered this
for some weeks in prime evening time when ought to be on if ever. Even
less so 9475 in daytime, not even Sunday mornings. Those should carry
programming from WTWW owner, Scriptures for America. Yet WTWW-2 with
Ted`s rock music or ham shows on 5085 continues regular at this check
et al., from 0200? Earlier on weekends; closing time varies widely.
Also sporadically active the so-called Ukraine service, Voice of
Freedom on 9940. Another check at 1948: NO WTWWs (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, Nov 8 at 0718, JBA carrier and a slightly stronger
JBA carrier on 11835, 2 and 3 x 3945 from R Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 8 at
0735: 621-Canary, 711-Morocco; and 846-TP Kiritimati. BTW, 936 used to
be prominent 200 kW from Morocco, but no sign of it for a year or more
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5960, Nov 8 at 2150, S5/S8 of music, maybe Turkish? Per
EiBi B22 and Aoki, nothing scheduled here at this hour (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 880, Nov 7 at 0350, Spanish music atop KRVN making
a SAH of 84/minute = 1.4 Hz, presumed R. Progreso, Pinar del Rio, but
no SW 4765 to //. During EST season, nominal 4765 hours are 0130-0500
only UT. Does not fit exactly mwoffsets which implies these two 3.9 Hz
apart as measured on widely divergent dates 2 or 3 years ago. If KJOZ
TX were the Spanish, it and KRVN were only 0.7 Hz apart as of
2018/2019 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025 & 4765, Nov 7 at 0321, both Rebelde and Progreso are
off; 5040 RHC Spanish S9/+10. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, UT Mon Nov 7 at 0344, RHC is S9+25/35, but just barely
modulated with hum, not positive // 6165 as it`s only S7 and also
JBM/hum, during `Mailbag` with ``Ed Newman`` -- him being soft-spoken
would otherwise be pleasant, but not to cope with JBM! If RHC still
have two separate English hours alternating, this confirm that now
during evenings EST, Mbg appears within odd-numbered UT hours, as
expected in updated DX/SWL/Media Programs, rather than even-UT hours
during EDT. As for the isolated 1-hour Englishes at 20-21 and
peripatetic 22-23 or 23-24, never quite sure which be which.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 7 at 2001, RHC English is still here, VP and
distorted into Maryland SDR, presumably 20-21 ex 19-20 UT. Have not
tracked RHC much more yet; may be further changes following week
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6090-6120, Nov 7 at 0341, NHK Japanese relay via Issoudun
is S9+45 on 6105, splattering out to plus/minus 15 kHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** IRELAND. 3413 USB, Nov 7 at 0325, YL VOLMET in English, JBA S4 =
HNL. EiBi shows it`s Shannon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
November 6 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR with fast SAH and lite English understation,
presumably Smooth Radio, Brighton.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9 but noisy
into Missouri SDR; with 10-15 seconds of heavy noise overlaying,
blocking audibility of my opening, starting exactly same time as WOR
playback, obviously WRMI defect on this System/frequency.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0130 on WRMI 5950, VG
S9+20/30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 from 0401.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6160 minus 65 Hz = 6159.935. In the previous sesquiminute A51 had some
looping mélange, then cut to clear WOR. Next:

0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** VANUATU. 7890 < 11835, Nov 7 at 0740, R. Vanuatu JBA on 3945
harmonix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 603 kHz, Nov 7 at 0725, strong carrier but off at 0730
UT. This is a 9/kHz TA/TP split channel, but wonder if something
closer, like a domestic with a 3 kHz tone? I am not the only one
curious about 603. Possibilities include 500 kW Korea S, 600+ kW
China; 500 kW Oman, but all into daytime, most of all Oman. Similar
quandary on 891, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 891.00, Nov 7 at 0352, big het vs WLS and Cuban Spanish
on 890.00, but can`t pull any audio. Obvious choice would be Algeria,
but not there at 0412 recheck on the R75; so receiver birdie? Similar
quandary on 603, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at
0412: 684, 774-2, 837, 855 -- all likely Spain or Canary; 1467 & 1566,
JJBBA TWR Benin.

Nov 7 at 0440 another sweep: 612, 684, 747-2, 774-2, 837, 882, 999:
likewise, except 612 Morocco.

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at 0725:
801, maybe not too early for 10 kW KTWG Guam, 500 kW N Korea or 250 kW
Taiwan? Also 846 Kiritimati; 1287? 50 kW Japan? (Glenn Hauser, OK,

3) Norway - R Northern Star: New entry - added links to home page and
facebook page. The next update is scheduled for early December.

Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe

** CUBA. 5040, Nov 6 at 0642, RHC is still on in English with jazz
show, distorted S9+10/20 direct, so blots Vanuatu if still there until
0659. Also still on: 6060 and 6100 both S9/+10, but not 6165 or 6000.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Nov 6 at 1536, S9+10 of dead air from RHC, same
reading as 15140 with some music modulation, vs full mod on 13700 also
still on at S9+10, plus its FMish spurblobs approx. 13634 and 13766 at
S2/S3 with some mxmod audible too; but not on 2 x 64 displacements
plus/minus 128 circa 13572, 13828.

Into Maryland remote at 1600, ID claims to continue on 15140 & 11760
[only] + FMs. As a good little running dog of Yanqui Imperialism, Cuba
has also switched from EDT to EST. Instead of 1500, at 1601 opens
weekly Sunday Esperanto with same wrong sked as always, 0800 on 6100;
1600 on 11760 only, 2230? on 15730. By 1604, 15230 is still on and
becoming JB modulated in Esp`o; but Maryland is not getting the spurs.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Nov 6 at 0644, no JBA carrier direct from R.
Kiribati, presumed axually a silent Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11705 DRM noise, UT Sun Nov 6 at 0455, presumed RRI at end
of 0400 English broadcast to Asia; into UTwente SDR, but nothing on
listed 11790 AM or DRM. Had been listening on AM to N America
frequencies, 6020 & 7410, VG with `Listeners Letterbox` 0442-0452.
Included recitation of new B22 English sked. I wasn`t paying close
attention, but some frequencies seemed ``wrong`` compared to HFCC info
I`ve already quoted:
http://www.hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=B22&broadc=RRO
Own English fq sked does not match exactly HFCC registrations:
https://www.rri.ro/en_gb/frecvente-259
And trying to reach program skeds, not only English but Spanish,
diverted by an ``internal error`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday Nov 6 starting 50 minutes late at 0405 UT on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,

** U S A. 1150 kHz, Sunday November 6 at 0644-0708 UT, I`m tuning
direct for the KSEN Shelby MT DX test scheduled for 0600-0800. 1150 is
dominated at night here by KSAL Salina KS with a tight direxional lobe
thisaway:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KSAL&service=AM&h=N
On the altazimuth wrist-mounted DX-398, at first I`m hearing echoey
talk show between two YLs, so KSAL with Coast to Coast, see separate
log, and what else? NRC AM Log shows the other C2Cs are: WJBO LA, KRMS
MO, WIMA OH, KAGO OR, KQQQ WA, WHBY WI, CKFR BC --- surely one of the
first two, closer to here. At 0650, continuous tone looping NW/SE, so
that`s got to be KSEN. 0655 tone on the R75 with E/W longwire. 0704
Morse on the DX-398, too weak to copy; 0706 & 0708 Morse on the R75.
Anyhow I heard and QSLed KSEN a biyear ago as exhibited in my previous
report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1150, Nov 6 at 0655 UT, `Coast to Coast` with guest host
Connie Willis, also resuming at 0706; while I`m really trying for the
KSEN MT DX test, see seprate log. At 0702-0703 UT approx., I can`t
help but notice dead air during a net newscast from KSAL KS, which had
just IDed before 0700, and a second one, presumably commercial holes.
Is no one paying attention in Salina? Of course not! (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 10080, Nov 6 at 0654, no signal from R. Vanuatu on 2 x
5040, fundamental now blocked by RHC. Ron Howard confirms he heard no
10080 previously on Nov 4. As for Nov 6, Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec in
Brasil confirms 5040 until 0659, then 3945 harmonix on 7890, 11835

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Nov 5 at 1454, song is on, into
Uruguay SDR as I`ve been seeking LRA36 since 1445, but the best
Argentine SDR is offline, and all others there or in Brasil are either
offline, busy, or zero reception. Uruguay has annoying local noise
level but will have to suffice. 1459.5 standard canned sign-on; 1501
themesong; 1504.5 recitation; 1506 song; 1510 YLs introducing 29th
programa of season, so confirmed as repeat of Wednesday Nov 2, see my
already report. 1525 ID with frequencies, ``Nacional, la radio
pública``. Etc., etc. past 1600; 1605 ID and apparently off. Anyhow
back to ``normal`` USB mode and off-frequency after foray to LSB
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Nov 5 at 0620, R. Rebelde ID, humbuzzz and distorted,
S9+10. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 880, R. Progreso: see USA [and non] KJJR DX test log

** CUBA. All RHC frequencies are OFF already, Nov 5 at 0628.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Nov 5 at 0644, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati;
and no other 9/kHz splits in cursory check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Nov 5 at 0627, ORTM is still off, all month (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Nov 5 at 0630, no signal from VON. Some editors
tend to dispense with such non-logs, but I think stations` absences
are just as significant if not more so, than their presences (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday November 5 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 VG direct, S9+12/27 into
Missouri SDR. // 15770 is VP S5/6. Until I reach the KFS SE antenna,
S7/S9 but with ACI from Chinese on 15775, while 5850 remains
much better, S9+10/22.

Also confirmed UT Saturday November 5 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130 minus 24 Hz = 5129.976, S8/9+10 into Maryland SDR.

Not confirmed Sat Nov 5 at 1600 on WRN North America webcast but some
other program; must have latened all broadcasts by one hour last
Sunday as if we were in Europe. Confirmed at 1700 UT now.

WRN program skeds are still for A-22! Assuming all have shifted one UT
hour later than shown, some WOR times have been deleted, e.g. no
longer at 0130/0230 UT Sun/Mon. All the times now match up to the
three different target areas: Sat 1700, Sat & Sun 2100, Sun 1330.

Missed checking the Sat Nov 5 at 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, as I was
engrossed in updating --- WOR skeds, and DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS. This
occupied most of my afternoon.

Confirmed UT Sunday Nov 6 at 0030 on WRMI 7780. Checked first on
Argentine SDR I still have linked for Antarctica this morning, and
pleased to find WOR JBA down there way offbeam. Unfortunately, not
much better on nearer SDRs in GA, MD, TX. Next:

** U S A [and non]. 880, Sat Nov 5 at 0603 UT, tuning for the KJJR
Whitefish MT DX test: starting on the DX-398 with altazimuth wrist
mount: first hearing Spanish music looping NW/SE, surely R. Progreso,
Pinar del Rio, CUBA, rather than the only US SS possibility, KJOZ
Conroe TX. That makes a 1.0 Hz SAH with dominant KRVN Nebraska unless
nulled. At 0604 sweep tones in the mix, so that has to be KJJR. On the
R75 with E/W longwire it`s a different situation: KRVN with a 4.0 Hz
SAH from something else. I listen mostly on the DX-398: 0609 Morse
code; 0611 sweeps; 0612 romantic music in Spanish peaks again; 0614
prolonged tone; 0617 VVV ... JJR in code; 0618 on R75 code also
underaudible. KJJR has DX tested before: see my log of Jan 8 at:
https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2022_0106_0112.txt
I did not get a QSL for that but for its sibling station KSEN 1150:
https://www.w4uvh.net/KSEN1150DXghQSL.pdf
from a test before that on Nov 8, 2020, which this year is testiing 24
hours later on UT Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 5040, Nov 5 at 0619, in absence of RHC, JBA carrier, again
reconfirmed by Ron Howard as RV, and switching at 0659 to 3945 +
harmonix. Also here, no signal on 7260 at 0630. When last used 5040,
IIRC no harmonix heard on 10080 or 15120, but check them (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
