** CANADA. 730, besides the now IDed KQPN, see USA, Jan 16 at 0809 UT,
I hear a quick ID in passing from something else, sounds like ``730
WKDM``, then country music. I don`t see any W### close enough in NRC
AM Log, but there is CKDM in Dauphin MB, U2 10/5 kW, and C&W is one of
its formats. Bet that`s it. Natch, night pattern is supposed to have
null southward to protect US! I`ve heard it before: Sept 8, 2020 at

** TURKEY. Re VOT 5960 noshow after 2300 Jan 15; and often: ``TRT kept
the 9610 transmitter on air from 2125 until they cut it at around
2345. Normal schedule is 2125-2225v English s/off. But left it on with
Italian 2230-2255 then into English 2300-2345 off. So that’s most
likely why you didn’t hear it on 5960, Glenn. Someone asleep again at
the TRT transmitter site? Craig Tyson, Perth, Western Australia``

-- Tnx, Craig, yes, I must remember to check 9610 whenever 5960 be
AWOL. The only Italian is supposed to be at 0930: 2130 must be another
``stream-only`` time like 0000 German, 0100 Portuguese which
occasionally land on SW 5960 after English.

** U S A. 5085, Jan 16 at 2317 and still 2359, WTWW-2 not on air,
contrary to nominal schedule from *2300. Seems irregular (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re: ``UNIDENTIFIED. 730, Dec 23 at 0750 UT, classical music,
a surprise as no stations are overtly so formatted; pause and more as
if album cuts. Not recognizable as ``holiday`` or ``religious`` but
maybe, and/or anomaly for The Season. Would KKDA Korean TX or XEX
Deportes CDMX do this? On 730, no CBC/SRC nor any US public radio
stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)``

``Glenn, The station on 730 kHz remains UNIDENTIFIED and continues to
play two Classical guitar music selections as performed by John De'Bey
- "Gavottes" from Suite No. 6 by Johann Sebastian Bach and "Largo"
from Concerto 93 by Antonio Vivaldi. This is playing on a loop
continuously with no station ID or call letters.

At my receiving location in the northern part of the state of Georgia,
the station on 730 kHz fades in and out during the evening hours.
Using a Tescun AN-200 antenna loop coupled with a Radiowow R-108
receiver, the best receiving direction seems to be a line directly
East-West. The station on 730 kHz is not WUMP in Huntsville, AL nor
WLTQ in Charleston, SC or WZGV in Charlotte, NC. Checking the KiwiSDRs
in Alabama, the station is strongest on the Birmingham, AL SDR so that
may be a candidate for the area this station is transmitting.

It is quite odd that absolutely no call letters or station ID has been
given as normally done and required by the FCC, even during testing
periods, if the station on 730 kHz is in the United States. Bermuda
could have been a very remote possibility, but there are no MW
stations remaining there and the station would have shown up on
KiwiSDRs in North Carolina if that were the case. Central Alabama
(Birmingham area perhaps?) seems a prime candidate for its location so
far. --Evan Bexley - Buford, Georgia, USA``

Posted to the WOR iog at 0631 UT Jan 16. I reply at 0708. ``Evan, VERY
interesting. Tnx for following up on this, and can anyone else? I have
not noticed it again.`` So this goes on all the time, not just
overnight. This led me to check again, Jan 16 at 0743 -- and there it
is again on 730, classical guitar music. I had not listened long
enough to realize it`s a two-piece loop. On the DX-398 I try to DF it,
roughly E/W, maybe slightly clockwise, but too much at right angle,
XEX, country? To get a tight null on the unID. Of course, the only AL
station on 730 is Huntsville, nothing legal circa Birmingham. The
*only* otherone along this line is KQPN West Memphis AR, U4 1000/1000,
24h talk format, ``OvC`` per NRC AM Log -- yes, that means Overcomer
Ministry = Brother Hystairical! in which case it should be shown as
REL. But no TOMBS heard now.

Yet KQPN on radio-locator is Yahoo! Sports Radio -
https://www.730sports.com/ homepage has a listen link:
https://tunein.com/radio/KQPN-730-s35522/
which runs a commercial for ``WGU``, whatever that be, then nothing;
or ``The Sports Giant of the mid-South`` fails:
gemini.tunein.com/embed/player/s35522?partnerId=RadioTime

There happens to be a KiWiSDR in Tipton County TN which ought to be in
the daytime coverage area of KQPN:
http://km4rt.ddns.net:8073/
Tuning that in at 1947 Jan 16 -- there it is! Our great classical
guitar music. Past 2000, pauses between repeats but no ID or any
announcement. Mystery solved - except why in the world KQPN would do
this. Perhaps a sale/format change pending?

Evidently Evan had not seen the above? when he posted this 55 minutes
later:

``Glenn, The station on 730 kHz is most likely KQPN West Memphis,
Arkansas based upon tuning in on the KiwiSDR located in Tipton County
just north of Memphis, Tennessee during the local daylight hours. The
station as monitored via this SDR is playing the same classical guitar
songs as mentioned maybe with one or more mixed in but in a constant
loop. Aside from the locally generated RFI at the SDR, the 730 kHz
signal at this SDR is at a steady level indicating a pure ground wave
mode propagation mode to this SDR during local daylight hours (for
instance at 20:00 UTC).

Based upon outdated listings on Wikipedia and Radio-Locator.com, the
KQPN station no longer carries the Sport Radio format. In looking up
the FCC database, KQPN station changed owners as of September 28,
2023.
https://docs.fcc.gov/public/attachments/DOC-397387A1.pdf

No indication when this classical guitar music loop test period
started. However, it continues today with no station ID during the
hour monitored 19:45 to 20:45 UTC on January 16, 2024. Why the station
owners are doing this is quite perplexing. Are they trying to flip and
re-sell the station? Keep it on the air to keep up the license? But
why no station ID? -- Evan Bexley - Buford, Georgia USA`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Jan 16 at 0748, weak talk S6/S8, no doubt R. Vanuatu
reactivated here but on different sked than before, ending at 0659*.
Tnx to Manuel Méndez, Spain, who caught it first:

``7260, Radio Vanuatu, Port Vila, 0701-0810, 15-01. Back on 7260.
Interval signal, news, male female, at 0710 interval signal again,
Island songs, more comments and news. 15421 at firs but later
25432.``

Zach Liangas, Greece, also heard it via Maui SDR Jan 15 at 0719 with
traditional music.

And Ron Howard: ``7260, R. Vanuatu (ex 3945), 0601-0740 UT, Jan 16.
Wonderful to have them return to a frequency that produces good
reception! Here are a few highlights:

0601-0603: "News Update" in Bislama; followed by some C&W songs.

0631-0634: The often heard service announcements in Bislama; notices
regarding the administration of the estate of a deceased person,
giving contact info for any persons claiming an interest in the
estate; started and ended with the usual distinctive indigenous drums.

0654+: Series of ads, PSA's and promos (one for the "National Lotto,"
BBCWS promo for 104 FM, etc.).

0700-0712: "News Bulletin" and sports, in Bislama (items about China
and Taiwan, "football," etc.).

0720: Promo for the upcoming “UB40 featuring Ali Campbell” music
concert; please see the new YouTube promo:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gHncFKVz3Vs .

Ron, Asilomar State Beach, Calif. (near Monterey), Etón E1, external
antenna: 100 ft. long wire``

And Gary Pence, Dallas, reports: ``Hi Glenn, I read the nice report
from Manuel Mendez a couple of hours ago and thought I would check
7260 at my USA SDR go-to for South Pacific listening, which is KFS,
Southwest Array in Half Moon Bay, CA. And behold, they were still on,
0907 UT with a YL moderator and OM speaking bislama about some sort of
business till 0923, then played two Island songs until the ID at 0928.
They were coming in really well at S9 plus 10db average. Very happy
for Manuel alerting me of this catch. Well done. Gary, KM5X``

So we wonder what be the full schedule span now on 7260 and which
other frequencies? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Re 1359.71 mystery carrier/het, matching WCGL Jax FL
entry om MW offsets, but another FL, WHNR was also on that exact
frequency many years ago:

Mauno Ritola, Finland, replied: ``Nothing so much off via Orlando
KiwiSDR at 2000 UT. Could it be, that there are two transmitters in
use as some do? Mauno``

I replied Jan 14: ``The one currently believed to be on 1359.71 is
WCGL Jaxonvil, not WHNR. Orlando is much closer to WHNR and may not
detect WCGL in daytime. Glenn`` Many tnx to David Crawford, FL, for
following up on this, first Jan 15 on the WOR iog, starting with 23 UT
Jan 14:

``It's neither. WHNR was heard this evening on .000 to .001 around
2300 Z, "Boss Hogg" nonIDs. No IDs were heard from Jacksonville, but
there was no evidence of .71 at that time either. If it was
Jacksonville FL, it would be easily visible on the SDR waterfall here
in Titusville, and probably even readable, during broad daylight.
I'll recheck both during daylight here.

Re-check at 0055 Z has 1359.715 in weakly, so it's further west than
Florida if it is a domestic station. The carrier was down to .714
after about 5 minutes, so it varies a bit, slowly. No audio was
detected.

Another long-term mystery carrier to my west or deep south is 859.976,
varying a few Hz slowly, and typically shuts down in the 0230-0300 Z
range; some nights it's not there at all. No audio, ever.``

And UT Jan 16: ``This evening, ~1359.715 popped up for all of one
minute around 0046 Z, and hasn't been back since, as of 0135 Z. So, we
couldn't watch it fade
in as hoped.

Daytime reception here was all WHNR, Boss Hogg Radio, Cypress Gardens,
fair level and listenable semi-local on the right antenna, on .000 --
.001 again.

The only other significant, distinct carrier visible daytime was WQVN,
North Miami, stable on .999, Haitian format, but no readable audio
from it. There was nothing seen on .715 during the day. WQVN took over
the channel quickly around 2130 Z when the greyline propagation set
in.

Around 2230 Z, still greyline, there were hints of black gospel music
parallel the WCGL webfeed, but not for long. It was buried in the
"spot-on pile" on .000. This is very uncertain, and there was no
other evidence that the station is even on the air. Jacksonville MW is
typically easily heard in daylight here, so if WCGL is on, it is very
low power, hiding behind another line on the waterfall, and not on
.715ish.

So, the mystery station is not from East Florida. WSAI, FoxSportsRadio
Cincinnati, is mostly dominating with NFL after full dark set in,
trading off with WQVN. David E. Crawford, Indian River City, Florida``
(via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10125 USB, Jan 16 at 0756, ham QSO non-English. Sounds
like German intonation and a few words recognized on weak signals
S7/S9, such as ``wunderbar`` - but they say ``over`` in exchanging,
not ``über`` hi. I check this almost every night as I start
bandscanning below 10 MHz. As per logs months ago, Aussie accents in
English had been heard but never managed an ID. Australia supposedly
the only country allowing phone on otherwise CW/digital-only 29
(``30``)m band. Nothing caught for a long time. Well, some Aussies
could speak German. I am also alert for HK3QQ, that expired Bogotá ham
who transmitted defective CW letters in keyboard order for months on
10125, but never heard again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA. 17600, Jan 15 at 1957 tune-in for some rare nap music on
SW, from Ifrikya FM --- just in time to hear it dump off air at
1957.6* amid music: no finesse. If has to get off without saying a
word, should at least fade down the music before cutting carrier
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 13605, Jan 15 at 1609 & still 2058, pulse jamming
against nothing, as the incompetent Jamming Command keeps running
where R. Martí appears only in A-seasons; now blasting on 13820, no
jamming audible t/here. How many undernourished Cubans could be fed
for the lost cost of this nonsense?

Per Aoki & EiBi, no other station uses 13605 at any hour, prudent
avoidance. But HFCC shows one: TDF France at 17-18 only at 120
degrees, but in DRM, so maybe occasionally testing? A suitable
conflict, noise v noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1500 kHz, Jan 15 at 1607 UT, ad with 620 AC,
must be usual KPGM Pawhuska in 918 AC but coverage bleeding into
KS=620, as there is no KS on 1500. Also with SAH at first, likely KSTP
MN via residual daytime skywave. See also USA: KXEL 1540 log at same
time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1600 kHz, Jan 15 at 2002 UT, dead air at S9+20,
obviously my nearby KUSH, Cushing. 2005 comes to life with ID and
cheekily demanding ``keep listening``, into music. Obviously a
news-hole, ABC? is not being filled. I`m back almost an hour later, at
2059, ID with announcer`s name, and ``You are listening to KUSH, 1600
and 101.5, Oklahoma`s Americana station, the Cush`` and: DEAD AIR
again, but 2105 recheck, music has resumed. Did not listen for entire
5-minute break, but a trace of something else on E/W longwire:
probably usual nemesis, KRVA, 25 kW day power Vietnamese for The
Metroplex but not yet skywaving much. KUSH day power is 5 kW but gets
a lot less coverage per watt than same power would achieve at bottom
end of MF band. When will stations ever learn that automation requires
constant human oversight? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Jan 15 at 2300, token English from SNR, intro
feature to be about visiting a Madrid warehouse of costumes used in a
thousand TV shows and movies: another item sorely lacking any visual
element; but first the news: they do a good job of integrating
axualities in Spanish and summarising them in English, screams of war,
bits of music. If you require great detail, no doubt kvz will have
that in weekly reports. 2310 to Paris Costumes in Madrid. This topic
seems familiar but I did not listen much to it before (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960.000, Jan 15 at *2312 signal cuts on, but it`s
Chinese from XJRTV, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom
genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems --- not English from VOT as
scheduled. From before 2300 I had UTwente running and squelched on
5958-USB so I would know immediately when something oncame; while I
was axually listening to simulSpain 9690. 2330: no Turkey! Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler. It`s a shame so many DXers, editors,
insist on endorsing E.T. as really CHINA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 4885, Jan 14 at 0450, R. Clube do Pará almost back to
normal? S9+10/20 in Portuguese talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Jan 14 at 0451, R. Progreso is back on, unlike offness
last night - but modulation is breaking up, crackling while S9+20/30
carrier is steady. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Sunday Jan 14 at 1622, RHC weekly Esperanto S9+20,
good mod, something about a meeting in Brazilo; no signal on 15140,
nor any RHC found anywhere else on any band. Something`s always wrong
at RHC.

Hey! They have finally updated their frequency sked for current season
B23:
https://www.radiohc.cu/de-interes/frecuencias
but this page is about Spanish only. How about English? To get to
other langs one must click on the globe icon at upper right of
homepage:
https://www.radiohc.cu/en/de-interes/frecuencias
shows ONLY THESE: S Fsco 6100 05-07 - imaginary, I NEVER hear it;
Chicago 15140 20-21 - usually off, sporadic? and Washington 6000 01-07
- of course irregular and usually poorly modulated if at all.

The Programming Schedule link in dropdown under Interesting, even from
the English subsite leads not to any specific program names/times, but
to a complete transmission sked presented in Spanish, of all languages
which is obviously extremely outdated with loads of dead frequencies,
but not dated:
https://www.radiohc.cu/en/de-interes/programacion

How about Esperanto? Lots of interesting illustrated stories with
text:
https://www.radiohc.cu/eo
while its Frekvencoj page is for B23, showing ONLY these two, Solo
Domingo:
S Fsco 6100 0800-0830 = NOT heard; N/C/SAm 11760 1600-1630.

Why are only Commies bothering to SW broadcast Esperantoly? Not even
gospel huxters, who employ the most minority langs, only Cuba and
China, see:
https://www.addx.de/cgi-bin/hfp.cgi
but with wrong imaginary time for Havanna, 0700 as in A-seasons.

One might explore the other languages, linking only to French,
Portuguese, Arabic -- forget about Guarani, Quechua, long gone. But
does Creole still exist? Haitian, that is, tho targeted on Rio de
Janeiro, Chicago. Manythings always wrong at RHC! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NETHERLANDS. 5954.96, re my log of presumed R. Veronica, JBA Jan 12
at 0735: ``Yes, it is Veronica in the WRTH Web App. And yes, exactly
on 5954.96 kHz. Mauno`` Ritola (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2225 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday January 14 at 0100 on WRMI 9955: I happen to have UTwente
running so check first there: dominated by S7/S9 pulse jamming over
there, a trace of WOR under. I also have Argentine SDR ready after
noshow of LRA36: WOR is fluttery S9/+15 and noisy but no jamming
audible down there.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 14 at 0416 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, VG
S9+23 into nearby SDR, about 6 minutes into so started a bit early c.
0410.

Also confirmed Sunday January 14 at 1130 on WRMI 9955, S9+20 when I
happen to awaken. Next:

As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated. Thanks this
week to Joe Caberlin, Port Colborne, Ontario for some spare US$ to
Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA; preferably by MO or
check on a US bank

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 870, Jan 14 at 0750 UT, S9+20/25 of dead air, got
to be WWL silent, atop JBA others, occasional Cuban whooper (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1359.71, Jan 14 at 0259 UT, definite het upon 1360.00
stations dominated by sports coverage, no audio into E/W longwire.
Later lookup at mwoffsets finds this top entry!:
1360 1359,714 WCGL (Jacksonville, FL) 2022-12-06
It`s U1 5000/89 watts -- you think?
1359.71 carrier/het also detected on other rx at 0448.

Further research far back into my archives:
1360 1359.71 -290 Hz Cypress Gardens FL (WHNR)
(Medium Wave News 51/02 May/June 2005 via DXLD)

which probably derived from this 2004y log:

U S A. 1359.71, FLORIDA, WHNR, Winter Haven - 0914+ 31 October, US
soul and blues oldies, black female "I'm Debra McDowell and thank you
for listening... on your blues and oldies station..." Same off-
frequency observation here as Crawford logs. Fair signal at best
(Terry L Krueger, Clearwater, Florida, USA, 27.55.83 N, 82.46.08 W, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

WHNR still exists, U4 5000/2500 but nothing about it being so far
off-frequency in past bidecade; except now appears barely on wrong
side of .000 in mwoffsets:
1360 1360,0009 WHNR (Cypress Gardens, FL) 2022-02-18 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier check, Jan 14 at 0305, not
total 9/kHz scan but finds these when sought on the `545: 693, 711,
891 kHz.

Temp is down to 4F and falling. A bit later, Jan 14 at 0444, a full
9/kHz scan on the R75: 909, 1044, 1053-strongest, 1089 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
