Glenn Hauser logs June 23-24, 2023  View Printable Version 
Saturday, June 24 2023

Logs
** CUBA. 11760, June 23 at 0658, S9+20 with squeal, extraneous RHC
English frequency instead of 11670 or 9700; 0700 re-opening ``second
hour``, as I QRT, so unknown for how much longer. Unlike in Spanish,
RHC never announces any frequencies in English: maybe they know
whatever they say would not mesh with reality. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, June 23 at 2152, R. Cairo, English, is not off the
air today, huge S9+30/40 signal into UTwente with signature -5 Hz
offset, modulation sufficient level, but very distorted, worse during
music. Speech more or less readable, but repulsive also with hum.
Something`s always egregious in Egypt; ``no god but Allah`` at 2155 on
this Fribbath, violating Separation of Mosque and State -- and Egypt
is not even proclaimed an ``Islamic Republic``. Officially it`s the
Arab Republic of Egypt, which is bad enough, sticking it to non-Arab
minorities (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Possibility of some sporadic E DX, June 23 at
1900 UT, so a quick check in the car. Instead some area tropo
inbringing stations not normally heard:

97.3 at 1903 UT, ``Q97, 97.3`` and country. Punxuation is everything
at WTFDA FM DB. No likely hits on branding as Q97 or Q-97, but instead
Q 97; announcer should be required to utter it, ``Q space 97``:

KKJQ 97.3 GARDEN CITY KS COUNTRY Q 97 FM 100.0 244.0 37-46-48
100-27-36 2B62 KKJQ THE DAWG - 317 km/197 stmi

By 1904, 97.3 is captured by an equally strong signal with RCC call-in
about Fatima, whether other Christian subsets have different Bibles -
yes. I bet it`s an EWTN station; yes, and only 1/100 the power of Q
97:

KKNG-FM 97.3 BLANCHARD OK RELIGIOUS TEACHING 1.0 244.0 35-10-38
97-36-10 2BC0 Visit us at WWW.OKCR.ORG --- that`s Oklahoma Catholic
Radio, this frequency listed as for OKC. Blanchard is SW of OKC
between Norman and Chickasha, and doubt it serves the NE side very
well. They have several other stations, including the imaginary? one
on 104.9 at Ringwood west of Enid. Never mind what the call letters
be. Program sked shows this hour is indeed `EWTN Open Line`, but maybe
not a 100% EWTN outlet. 141 km/88 stmi

Note that some of my recent FMDX reports under USA have included some
Oklahoma items without being cross-referenced (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday June 23 at 2208, token English from SNR, VG
S9+10/25 into Maryland SDR, also much weaker 17715, 15520, 11670:
interview with a woman bass player from Tenerife Symphony about the
malady dystonia: ``Dystonia is a neurological movement disorder
characterized by involuntary (unintended) muscle contractions that
cause slow repetitive movements or abnormal postures that can
sometimes be painful.`` A malady which can be quite a problem for
professional musicians, and needs to be recognized as a condition
worthy of treatment, disability compensation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 23 from 2158, VOT English VG S9+50/55, and
even VG modulation today into UTwente. After listening to SPAIN,
tune-in at 2229, about how to avoid weight-gain. It`s `Feeling
Supreme/The Healing Spring``, diet and lifestyle recommendations.
2235, two-minute multilingual ID filler reel. 2237, jazz song in
Turkish - now modulation not so clear. More like a torch song; I`d
love to know the lyrix. 2241 ``Always by your side`` promo, `Did You
Know That?`, most valuable collexion of 16,000 Chinese pieces, Topkapi
palace, I don`t understand at first as the badaccentedess pronounces
it ``pah-LAHSS``: ``The Topkapı Palace, or the Seraglio, is a large
museum and library in the east of the Fatih district of Istanbul in
Turkey. From the 1460s to the completion of Dolmabahçe Palace in 1856,
it served as the administrative center of the Ottoman Empire, and was
the main residence of its sultans. Wikipedia, Address: Cankurtaran,
34122 Fatih/İstanbul, Türkiye``. 2246 distorted song. 2250 `Every hour
of the day TRT is with you`` promo; really? Not by me. 2253 canned
s/off by the twisted-tonguess; a bit of IS to plugpull at 2255.6*, so
no extra German today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2196 monitoring: confirmed first
SWBC, Friday June 23 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, poor and noisy S5/S9
direct; at 1457 very poor S5/S7 into Bonaire SDR where it`s supposedly
aimed; better into Maryland SDR, S5/S7 but less noisy. No jamming
audible at any.

Also confirmed Friday June 23 at 2052, the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM
Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+5/20 into nearby SDR with storm crackles. 2059
extraneous filler, 2059.5 IRRS ``sign-off until 9 pm CET tomorrow``,
2100 keeps right on going with `Feature Story News` for several more
minutes. Maybe at Villa Estense they do not understand English about
what a sign-off is? Over usual lite musical CCI from presumed Smooth
Radio, Brighton, UQKOGBANI. Smooth is closing several MW outlets but
apparently not yet this one. Next:

Pollard, Raleigh NC, who sent a quarterly seasonal check to Glenn
Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702

** U S A. 6160 -67 Hz = 6159.933 // 7490 -67 Hz = 7489.933, what an
offset coincidence? 0000 UT Sat June 24, both sufficient into Maryland
SDR but noisier on 6; no signals on 5130v or 3265v, WBCQ with
`AAAWWW`. Is it new? Not a twit from Allan today. It`s sounding
familiar beyond Angela`s mike check; he prompts her and then keeps
talking, himself. Starts with a call for two engineers with
high-power experience like with analog UHF TV. Using a 1948 Gates
yard-wide console. Super-stition is a ``digital controlled
nightmare``. Northern Maine: you either love it or hate it``. This is
sounding very familiar, a rerun? There was no announcement as such at
the start. I stop listening closely. 0025 says on 7490, 6160 and 5130
--- NOT on 5. And does not give YOOLF date. Later discusses strange
clutches on Model Ts. 60 Hz vs 50 Hz turntables in America vs Britain
impact music pitches -- another item I`ve heard before. Etc., etc.
0035, World Radio Day was this past Monday, February 13 : that does
it. So it`s four months later and still trying to hire engineers?
Maybe the smart ones don`t want to aid and abet World`s Last Chance
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, Friday June 23 at 1706 tune-in via Maryland remote,
WMLK amateur hymn singing with piano, cuts off air in a few seconds;
*1707 back on at S5/S7. 1714* cuts off again, *1715 still singing,
while a gospel huxter is speaking on the ``Live Radio`` player on
website. Recheck at 2055, trace of 9275 to UTwente, and definitely
into Missouri SDR. The 17-22 UT transmission is often absent in part
or in whole? I did not check 15150 last night, but others were hearing
it well beyond North America. Nothing found about 15150 at
wmlkradio.com; the `Schedule` link goes nowhere, but there is this
about `Engineer`:

``Deacon Gary McAvin --- With academic training (and degrees) in
electrical, electronics, engineering, legal assistance, OSB (Obadiah
School of the Bible), and criminal justice, Deacon Gary McAvin
embraced a wide range of disciplines while undertaking his scholarly
pursuits. Garnering accolades (three honors societies) and recognition
for his academic achievements in the classroom and for exhibiting
leadership qualities, personal integrity, and moral character. Deacon
McAvin has extensive training in the electrical, electronics &
engineering disciplines. These academic fields are necessary for the
work which he is now involved in.

Currently, Deacon Gary McAvin works for the Assemblies of Yahweh, home
of the international broadcasting station WMLK Radio. Deacon McAvin is
the Shortwave Radio Station Manager and Broadcast Engineer. This
station is located in Bethel, Pennsylvania. In this position, he has
played a major role in installing and rebuilding the original
50-kilowatt (kW) shortwave transmitter. Deacon McAvin later replaced
it with a 250 kW BBC unit imported from Europe, which he reconstructed
and is now in the process of restoring this unit to its original
configuration.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Finally another sporadic E FM DX opening, June 22; since
it`s Thursday afternoon, I don`t have time for it, and probably missed
a lot before and after the few minutes I spend on it before I have to
record WORLD OF RADIO 2196. Over a 10-minute period on the caradio, I
log 4 stations in southwest Ohio, rather short skip, among many other
channels in the bottom half of the band with CCI signals fading in and
out. All times strictly UT, and standard boilerplate applies:

93.7 at 1917, ``93.7 The Light``, ads, weather, traffic:

93.7 THE LIGHT 50.0 150.0 39-39-35 84-18-53 6219 The Source 93.7 WFCJ
The Source 93.7 WFCJ Religious Talk 1244 km/773 stmi

92.9 at 1920, ``Miami Valley Gaming Room`` ad --- must be MV Gaming
Home, horse racing, which is in Warren County, near this:

93.3 at 1923, ``Star 93-3``, religion, Middletown, Landmark Church,

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed June 21 at 1752, LRA36 talk
already on the air, 1754 sounds like live ``buenas tardes`` greeting
at 15 local time, between Sra. Menéndez and the usual male host. No
signal direct altho imagination-level bit of the reduced carrier; of
the four Argentine SDRs, the best one is offline; two get a trace at
best, but the other one is weak but readable; steadily fades down to
JBA by 1925 and not at all by 2015 but unknown if or when it turned
off. Anyhow, now seems regular roughly 18-21 UT on Wed & Sat. I missed
checking for those last week (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA [non]. 12005, June 21 at 2130, annual BBCWS midwinter
special for Antarcticans, greetings from families with bits of music
interspersed such as ``I`m a Believer`` twice near the start. I first
tried several remotes in Argentina, Uruguay, RSA, some getting some
signal but inadequate. So I settle on UTwente, where I thought
Woofferton might be skipping over, but sufficient at S9+20; and 13810
slightly weaker at S9+10 and minus 3 Hz offset. Third frequency, 7255
via UAE a very poor third everywhere if at all. I don`t get it why
they disused Ascension, which should have put the best signal
southward. Uncounted, but there were so many quick greetings that it`s
hard to believe the target audience no more than 32 to 40 down there.
Of course, each could receive greetings from several family, friends.
At 2145 a quick check for my direct reception: both 12005 & 13810
audible but very poor. 2159 closing with ``Jingle Bells``, off at
2200* sharp. Anyhow, BBC are repeating it later and streaming, and I
hope ondemand for convenience. Yes, Alan Pennington, bdxc-news, says,

``But also now available to listen to online at
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct5hqt
(though always sounds better coming through the ether!)`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, UT Tue June 20 at 0100, RAE VG in English
via WRMI; always gives day of produxion at outset, this time ``Monday,
June 12`` -- more than a week ago. WRMI sked now shows RAE English
0100-0130 Tue-Sat on 9395 - but is there only one new program per
week? Repeated over & over? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855 & 15520, Wed June 21 at 2200, good signals from token
English of SNR into UTwente, far off-target but I conveniently have it
running after BBC/Antarctica. News includes about the latest migrant
boat loss off Canarias. 2205 feature previewing some operas this fall
at Teatro Real. Singer explains how different languages lead to
different interpretations. 2220 about a paleontologist in 1868 whose
cave paintings he discovered in Altamira were dismissed as fraudulent
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, June 21 at 2200, no signal from VOT English for us
into UTwente, nor at 2207 recheck. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2195 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.

and I could believe it`s really 300 kW; but I miss sign-on if any, nor
any real IDs; amateurish singing in progress, hymn? By 0412 presumed
DEJOM with Yahweh stuff, perpetual obsession with ``correct`` name for
their deity. At 0433 I check the website, still with no new info,
altho the ``live radio`` plays -- but NOT // 15150, in fact an
entirely different speaker. So far I have seen zero other reports
about this in all the DX sources I have; no one has noticed but me
starting two nights ago? Then, here`s another, June 21 at 0840 in
bdxc-news:

``WMLK (Assemblies of Yahweh) Bethel, Pennsylvania currently on 15150
khz with a good signal here at 0830 tune in, usual preaching from the
late Jacob O Meyer. SIO 344. First time I've heard WMLK on this
frequency or at this time although they have been registering the
frequency for many years in the HFCC. 15150 was first reported by
Glenn Hauser on 19 June. WMLK schedule is Sunday to Friday: 0400-0900
on 15150, 1700-2200 on 9275. 73s Dave Kenny, Caversham Berks, AOR
7030+ / 25m longwire``

9275, still no WMLK here at 2057 June 21 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085 & 9475, still no activity from WTWW; however George
McClintock tells me June 21 there`s still a possibility of
reactivation if some airtime can be sold. Partially depleted tubes may
be sold on EBay. Vines are now overgrowing the two WTWW buildings. A
tree fell over on one of the feedlines. SFAW HQ in Colorado is still
paying electric bill at minimum rate of $ 2K per month, altho axual
consumption has been nothing but air-conditioning (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 88.3, a reply to my first unID of my June 14 FM DX report,
``88.3 at 1714, mentions Leesburg? which is in N VA, NW of WDC.
Nothing there; I now think it was probably Lynchburg as in later 88.3
log below.``

Tim McVey: ``You can't rule out 88.3 WQIQ in Spotsylvania. WQIQ is
part of Virginia Tech's excellent large-area network of stations (IQ
Radio), and a fulltime NPR affiliate. Daily they carry segments on
news from around Virginia. That seems like a reasonable option based
on PTA (other Leesburgs are in FL, GA, AL, OH). 88.3 in Lynchburg, VA
is local, religious programming and a long way from Leesburg. ~tim

Spotsylvania VA is near Frederixburg, between Alexandria and Richmond
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12005, June 21 at 0632, open carrier, fair. Nothing in
Aoki or EiBi anywhen near this time. Would you believe HFCC still has
an A23 entry for Sfax, TUNISIA, 500 kW at 100 degrees on 12005 at
0400-0610? Gone from SW for many years. Maybe that qualify them to
host HFCC meetings, good for the economy. Hmmm, 12005 happens to be
one of the frequencies from Woofferton to Antarctica later this date
at 2130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
