** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed Feb 15 at 1555, no signal from
LRA36 during its former and future? regular broadcast time; into
Argentine SDR, I let it run for half a sesquihour or so anyway, with
nothing.

BUT there it is with music prélude? at 1951 tnx to tip from Horacio
Nigro, when I don`t have time to follow it much further. 1954 RAE ATTW
multi-lingual IDs, back to songs.

From 2151 I`m back on it, mostly music at S9/+12. Maybe it`s the new
temporary 1 kW transmitter they were expecting to improve reception at
higher power than before. 2204 an ID and seeming live saludos to
Marambio Base. 2230 another check direct: no trace of it. Back to Arg
remote: Still going with rather frenetic music at 2252, 2300; 2327 ID
for LRA36, music.

UT Feb 16 at 0007, RAE IDs amid more and more music. 0016 again
greeting Marambio Base including individuals by name, various sectors
there, and mentioning guests from Colombia. Apparently Esperanza is
very grateful for something from Marambio. 0024 plugs the Panorama
Nacional newscast from RNASG the entire month of January on the
Nacional net, somewhat outdated. I notice some hum surges during
pauses between talk and more music until finally chopped off at 0027*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 15 at 0739, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
and no other 9/kHz splits. Gary Pence had detected it earlier at 0404
via Oahu SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Feb 15 at 0757, off-frequency carrier still
detectable from VON, aside better 7260 Vanuatu, q.v. (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 15 at 2302, token English from SNR/REE is
S9+20/35 of DEAD AIR on N American frequency for the entire semihour
and beyond. Something`s nonsensical at Noblejas. The other three
frequencies are nominal, 11685, 11940; and 12030 best and quite
sufficient S9+10/20 despite off the back from ME beam into Maryland
SDR. 2308 recheck already interviewing an author of historical fixion
explaining what`s true and what`s not. Then about a `virtual museum`
he runs, ending with web reference mucain.com which stands for MUseo
CArrera INdias --- that should be a lot more interesting to explore
than the interview. 2328 Hélena concludes with a song (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) See also TAIWAN

** TAIWAN. 9690, Wed Feb 15 at 1628, singing in Chinese? VP with
flutter, cuts off at 1629* but shortly back on a bit to 1630* off
again. Noted since this would QRM SPAIN when its N American service
starts at *1500 weekends. Aoki shows at 1600-1630, Furusato no Kaze in
Japanese, clandestine for N Korea, via Paochung site; 9690 also at
1500-1600 CRI in Bengali via Kunming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.001+, Feb 15 at 2305, VOT VG S9+40 into
UTwente, on the air for English hour. Recheck 2316 outro ``Whipping
Files`` or whatever it`s called. 2317-2325 `Weekly Commentary` by a
guest with an Arabish name, denouncing racism and anti-Islam in
France, making fun of EQ victims in Charlie-Hebdo cartoons. Read by a
VOT announcer and inviting other outsiders to contribute.

I`m trying to monitor Antarctica and Spain at same time, back and
forth via different remotes. 2329 has started a talk about when and
whether to wear shoes --- yes, per 2334 outro it`s been `Feeling
Supreme/The Healing Spring`; then music, no more features caught until
2354 s/off with full English sked, fragment of IS and 2355* off
uncovering the CCCCCCI from Urumqi, std denunciation. It starts at
5960.000+ then creeps up beyond .001+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 9455, Feb 15 at 1630, WRMI missing unlike 9395 with
TOMBS only S5/S6 and steady; rather S6/S9 algo with heavy flutter,
i.e. RFA Chinese via SAIPAN sked per Aoki M/W/F only at 1600-1700,
and/or CNR1 jammer. WRMI 9455 is supposedly 24/7 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Feb 15 at 0756, VP S8/S9 talk from R. Vanuatu, but
better than usual; and still no 7890 or 11835 from no 3945 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9025 AM, Feb 15 at 1632 in routine bandscan, surprised
to encounter President John F. Kennedy`s inaugural address, one of the
great speeches of history, mentions ``first 100 days`` and immortal
phrases like ``let us never fear to negotiate``, but cut off air
abruptly at 1636.6*.

Sounds like could be a regular broadcast transmitter, and S9/S6, even
stronger than 9395 WRMI at S5/S6. I soon find that this has been
previously reported almost exactly one year ago on Feb 18, 2022,
suspected of being US military rather than a pirate:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,93157.msg297341.html#msg297341

Like then, this keeps cutting on for 5 minutes or so, breaks off for 5
minutes or so. JFK certainly deserves more respect! FWIW, further
on/off approx. timings, but this gets old rather quickly: *1652-1657*,
*1702-1707* including 1703 ``Ask not what your country can do for
you...``; end of speech 1704, ``God`s work must truly be our own``,
brief outro by another voice, or rather intro and restarted.
*1712-1717*, *1723-1727*, *1732-1737.5*, *1742.5-1747.5* then some
``running water``; *1752.7-?, *1802.8-1805, restart; *1812.8-?; 1817.5
another restart with Chet Huntley? voice intro, but soon cut off
again. *1823-; 1845 recheck still going; and *1903.5 and 1923 yet
again.

I notified the WOR iog and it seems I am getting it better than in
Michigan or Maryland. I switched from direct to the Missouri remote
for convenience at *1652, hitting S7 and only 3 or 4 Hz
off-frequency-minus (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Feb 14 at 2229, R. Cairo must be reactivated after
some weeks` missing from here for 2115-2245 English: S9/+20 direct,
undermodulated talk I can`t be sure is English, and some music.
2230-2235 signal seems to weaken and more distorted but not the
extreme as before. I undoze at 2246 to find it gone, just now? Can`t
tell without a remote UTwente check whether this is still/again 5 Hz
on the minus side. As of Jan 13 when it had been gone almost a month,
I quit checking for it frequently but occasionally. Since then no
other reports of 9440 while the 9900+ transmitter remained heard for
some other emissions. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 14 at 0741, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati;
due to lightning skirting Enid, temporarily on indoor longwire of
unknown length, strung around ceilings of two rooms; and surprised to
be hearing this even a bit stronger than normally on external E/W
100-foot LW. But no other 9/kHz splits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.001+, Feb 14 at 2346, VOT with sad song, S9+25 into
UTwente well atop the CCCCCCI; first checked direct at 2327, was S7/S9
also with sad song. At least the English broadcast is on air unlike
yesterday. 2353 s/off with full English sked but jumbled, 2355 IS,
2355.5* off unxovering XJPBS which is one Hz lower, 5960.000+, from

** U S A. 5050, Feb 14 at 0157, WRMI Legends on NF for first time,
ex-4980; checked just after I hear some guy on 9395 talking about it
as registered 2300-0500. Music playing is `Telstar` by The
Tornado[e]s, a really neat tune and one-hit wonder. 0200 no ToH ID but
quoting Deuteronomy which ought to be off-topic! In this case, WWRB is
gone for good, yet Aoki still imagines it; so Ted ought to be able to
stay here, unlike a brief bit on 5085 which the real WTWW reclaimed.
4980 opened back up for East Turkistan a bit earlier along grayline,

** U S A. 9455, Feb 14 at 0736, no signal from WRMI-5, normally legacy
Fámily Radio hour in Spanish. Certainly not due to propagation, since
9395 inbooms S9/+10 with SMTV cult, and 9955 S9+20 with TOMBS cult. I
also notice supposedly 24h 9455 absent at various other daytimes
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0024 UT February 15

** CHINA. 11975, Feb 13 at 1621, extremely distorted S6/S8 music and
talk. On BFO, carrier is also extremely unstable. Doppler flutter
maybe worsening it as on some other 25mb frequencies, like Vietnam.
Not recognizable as CNR1 jammer, but only that and Sound of Hope in
EiBi and Aoki. Well, that makes the jamming even more effective!
Romania does not start 11975 in Arabic until 1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13605, Feb 13 at 0634, pulse jamming against nothing, the
daytime Martí frequency active in A-seasons only. What about 13820,
the B-season RM daytime channel? some beepbursts, probably also out of
Cuba as sometimes appear on jamchans. Something`s always paranoid
wacko at the DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12000, Feb 13 at 0635, RHC English at S9/S8 direct but
undermodulated on 2 x 6000, where it`s S9+30/40 starting ``Cuban
Music`` show also UM, somewhat distorted, and with spurpeaks circa
plus/minus 9 kHz on 5991 & 6009. // 6060 is still on at S9+30, louder
but distorted and splattering 6048-6068 or so; and // 6165 at S9/+10
with ACI from WBCQ as these two stations insist on a too-cozy 5-kHz
neighborly relationship. But no 6100. Somethings` multiply wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 13 at 0647 UT, JBA carrier direct from R.
Kiribati, only 9/kHz split detected. Probably at Oahu remote, Gary

** SPAIN. 9690, Mon Feb 13 at 2310 after news, REE token English
S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR, about World Radio Day, and Peace theme
this year, listeners commenting about listening to Sefarad service;
2313 clip of Ukrainian Radio ID, which was relayed in Spain today on
DAB; since they ``don`t have any spare frequencies on FM``. There is a
refugee centre quite near to RTVE HQ, where DAB receivers were
distributed. // 12030 almost as good off the back to ME; 11940 to SAm
sufficient; 11685 to Africa insufficient with squeal.

until the latter finally chops on 5960.000+ at *2308, S9/+15 Chinese
talk from EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against
Uyghurs and other Muslims. Still noshow TRT by 2330. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler. Still CC only Feb 14 at 0000 TS and CNR1

what`s this? 0628 outro as from an SBG in Arizona even on BBC WS, 0630
headlines. EiBi shows this hour only via Pinheira, SAO TOME; but not
noticeably off-frequency! How high does this band officially extend?

Long ago WOR was on Saturdays around that time via IRRS; more recently
to Fridays during that hour, and then canceled. This catch without
notice may have been a spur-of-moment filler as on Sat sked:

``19:00 Streaming + 7295+1323 kHz English News and features from our

Nor can we depend on it henceforth, but check.

Also confirmed Sunday February 12 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1323 kHz, Villa Estense, S9/+10 into nearby Noale SDR; still going at
2105 into Parma SDR but only S6/S8. BTW, all three AMI transmitters on

``I found the attached file listing CODAR stations in Alaska, Canada,
Hawaii, the Lower 48, and Puerto Rico. It seems CODAR stations have
4-letter IDs besides any FCC-assigned call sign. I've yet to find a
chart matching the FCC ID with the 4-letter ID. The station you heard
on 4.750 MHz, Glenn, appears to be SGRV at Singing River, MS. [Viz.:

162 SGRV Singing Ri USM 4.75 -25.7339 CODAR Ocean Sensors. SeaSonde]

This site provides some more information on CODAR stations:
https://cordc.ucsd.edu/projects/hfrnet/
If you zoom in on the map and select Station Placemarks in the Overlay
menu and click on a station marker, you can get some information on
the station and clicking on Station Diagnostics gets you recent data
plots and some further station information like power (83 W for
SGRV).

As you can see from the station file listing, CODAR (Coastal Ocean
Dynamics Applications Radar) stations operate on a variety of HF
frequencies. Details of some of the different transmitters and
antennas used are in the attached PDF file. -- Richard Langley``

Engineering | University of New Brunswick]

Unclear what the -25. figure is about; not geo coordinates which are
in separate columns, not copied here. So why does the FCC version show
two different but nearby locations?

Singing River is a river, not a town; or rather nickname for the
Pascagoula River. Fascinating story of people hearing it ``sing`` with
lots of theories except for CODAR, predating that:

** U S A. 7490-, Sat Feb 11 at 2233, quick check direct finds this
WBCQ on, playing music, sounds Greekish, wonder if a bonus of Greek
Music Refuge? For some weeks, and whenever checked, the program sked
shows NOTHING around this time, so off the air 2130-2400? Like:
7490 Sa 1700 2130 UT Sa 12:00PM 04:30PM EST The Overcomer Ministry
7490 Sa 1930 2000 UT Sa 02:30PM 03:00PM EST Harmony Barn Sessions
7490 Su 0000 0100 UT Sa 07:00PM 08:00PM EST Fluxedo Junction

The operators at Monticello have got to have a *real* schedule of what
programs to put on, when. Why is it so hard to migrate such basic
reality info into the websked??? Another little problem: cannot
possibly be running two shows at same time on same frequency at
1930-2000! Unless it`s ISB?? Or non-weekly in which case that should
be spelt out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. 13830, Feb 11 at 1555, HOA music S9/+10 and equally on //
15565; 1557 announcement mentions ``Amharico``, i.e. the 1530-1600
Vatican News broadcast toward Ethiopia. 13830 is the extracontinental
SSOB by far, eclipsed only by domestic 13845 & 13820 flanking it. Yet
another example of VN`s ability to blast into areas opposite direxion
of target - either their aiming is backwards, or it`s really
bidirexional, certainly good news for all those SWLing Ethiopian
Catholix in North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
