I vaguely recall it once ended at 11970 but now per ITU it`s 11600-12100 --- that still leaves broadcasters below 11600 and above 12100 as intruders into utility bands. Klingenfuss 2022 has no ute between 11760.8 and 12109. Can anyone ID this, should it recur?

 ** ALGERIA [and non]. This might have a bearing on the 2.3 Hz SAH I hear on 891 kHz, Algeria and what? However, I have never heard any carrier/tone on 889! Glenn
``Mark WA1ION Apr 28 #41056 --- Reviewing some recent captures I came across a situation around 890 kHz. When listening in AM mode it is not unusual to hear a 1 kHz tone on the channel. Prior experience has pointed to the Algerian station on 891 as the source of this. As I was trying to get clean 890 reception I flipped to lower sideband and encountered a signal at 889 kHz similar in level to the 891 carrier noted in upper sideband. A head scratcher for sure. Has anyone else noted this? I would think that this would mostly be noticed along the US/Canada East Coast and maybe by the Gulf of Mexico. 890 here is dominated most nights by Radio Progreso, Cuba. King Kong signal but often with distorted pirate-like audio, rather like the 910 garbage-fest of R. Metropolitana and the wanky audio from the 550 Venezuelan. Sometimes Progreso mysteriously disappears leaving a weaker jumble of Colombia, WLS, and WAMG. These intermittent outages and the dodgy audio point to technical problems. Could the 889 and 891 products be originating at R. Progreso or maybe somewhere else? My strong suspicion is that one of the Cuban transmitters is the source of the 889 and 891 tones. Too bad we don't have the Key West SDR anymore. Mark Connelly, WA1ION | South Yarmouth, MA, USA | FN41vq`` IRCA iog (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BELIZE. 28258 CW, May 1 at 2308, EEEEEEEEEE VVV DE V31HQ/B EK47##, i.e. relog of the radio club beacon.

Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side: ``A Lesson in Semantics for Castroism --- Castroism's usual instruments to control Cubans' consciousness have become obsolete, and in many cases they have even backfired...`` https://diariodecuba.com/cuba/1714410293_54468.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also ALGERIA [and non] ** SPAIN. 17855, Wed May 1 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG into DX-390 portable with a few meters clipped-on. No news, must be a holiday; instead, entire semihour is docu narrated by former anchor Alison Hughes and probably an evergreen, about unequeal military relations between Spain and US during the Franco era/Cold War. US basically had full control/sovereignty over bases in Spain despite flying both flags (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, May 1 at 2200, VOT not off the air, almost sufficient direct into DX-390 portable, but SPAIN has my full attention until 2230.

The LWCA list has a few single-letter beacons but not this one. Maybe rather some idling ISM ute (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17690, May 1 at 1710, again NO signal of R. Martí to Cuban mercenaries for Russia in Ukraine. Was also missing and found nowhere else on April 30. Again May 1 at 1720-1725 I do a quick but thorough bandscan and find it nowhere else on the 21, 17, 15, 13 or 11 MHz bands. Propagation is degraded but VOA still manages a good signal in English from Grimesland on 17530, and Martí to Cuba on 13605, while 11930 & 11860 are JBA absorbed. It`s done for now but unconfirmed whether permanently canceled. Could it be they got zero listener response? I`m on a Martinoticias mailing list and never saw any reference to this secret? service. Now I search the website on Ucrania and get loads of hits on stories mentioning it but nothing about the broadcasts; however this brief about the mercenaries: https://www.martinoticias.com/a/mercenarios-cubanos-en-la-invasi%C3%B3n-rusa-en-ucrania-7-meses-de-silencio/387853.html Then no significant hits searching on the 4 frequencies used, 17680, 17690, 17865, 17870 -- but no hits on 13605 or 13.605 either as if SW were irrelevant (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].
