** U S A. 9330, Oct 18 at 1511, World`s Last Chance Radio on WBCQ-6,
in pseudo-scientific discussion of how the earth is flat, as looking
at the stars surely confirms, Polaris visible in the south, the stars
being very nearby in the firmament. So ridiculing them as ``Flat
Earthers`` is still very much appropriate. Allan Weiner would never do
that but often reminds us he is a ``man of science`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, Wed Oct 18 at 0654, WWCR-4 is on with unID gospel
huxter, not // 5850 WRMI so not TOMBS. This transmitter had been on
overnight only on UT Sat & Sun for TOMBS. WWCR-4 on 5890 could be on
anytime between 02 and 12. For axual scheduling, rather than 24/7
registered availability, we must look instead at the program
schedules.
The Oct 1 version still claims 5890 is OFF THE AIR, M-F 12-7 am
Central, misconverted to UT as 06-13 rather than 05-12. Could it be
something sked on another transmitter? NO, 5935 has University
Network, not that. 4840 is TOMBS, and 3215 is supposed to be OFF just
like 5890, altho I did not recheck 3215 at this time.

WWCR has already added B23 transmitter schedules, in two steps, the
first week Oct 29-Nov 5 while USA be still on DST; and then Nov 6
onward, off DST. Same old frequencies, but shifts in changeover times
for a few of them. 5890 will be available at 03-13 UT. On this xmtr
page it appears they get the CT/UT conversions correct, unlike on the
programming pages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 18 0657, S4/S5 talk from R. Vanuatu still here,
vanishes sometime after 0658. I don`t think they make any retuning
announcement, do they? Leaving listeners hanging unless they be
DXer-like, in the know (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search October 18 at
0111-0120 UT. This time on the NRD-545 which doesn`t tune in 9-kHz
steps - or if it can, I don`t know how; rather than the IC-R75, so I
have to manually go in USB to 1 kHz below some of them, and do get
some hits, not in exact order tuned: 684, 711, 774-2 beating, 855,
891, 909-strongest, 999-2, 1053, 1107 kHz. Likely from Spain, Western

That reference shows many of the KSDA SW broadcasts are 1 kW ND including this one on 15320, rather than 100 kW with an azimuth. Those can`t be right. I would not rely on it for anything else. Glenn

probably sermon from the hamish pirate heard before only on UT Sundays

** UKQOGBANI. 15245, Oct 17 at 1327, no signal yet from Woofferton,
rather just barely audible carrier off-frequency, no doubt VOKorea.
This is for the one-hour special from 1330 marking the 80th
anniversary of Woofferton. 17785 eastward is on already with Encompass
IS. Back to 15245 at 1330, now it`s on aimed USward with no het or
other QRM, SINPO 45444 or S9/+20, so I listen mainly to it but 17785
is almost as good with a bit more fading. This on the NRD-545 with
100-ft E/W longwire; but heard the last few minutes sufficiently on
DX-398 portable with telescopic antenna only.

After sign/on, at 1331-1348, monolog by Dave Porter with great detail
about all the different transmitters the WOF site has used over the
years, concluding with RIZ from Croatia capable of DRM. 1348 asking
for reports to radio@encompass.tv for special eQSL and chance to win
something in a drawing. Then we hear voices of a number of other
current or former engineers and other staff; including at 1352 G8XYJ.
1358 the first YL voice, office manager; interspersed with more QSL
requests. 1402 Lilliburlero. At 1412 starts playing IS/IDs of: VOA
signing off with Yankee Doodle Dandy, London Calling, Bow Bells, RCI,
NHK, DW, RFE/RL Praha, B-B-C- chime notes, RNW. The same sequence
repeats over and over and over again until cut off the air at 1430
during NHK with no further announcements. Quite nice nostalgia, and
congrats to WOF. The WORLD OF RADIO iogroup was also flooded with
reports on this. It would have been nice if defunct sites, Rampisham,
Skelton had received similar treatment on their anniversaries (Glenn

** EGYPT [non]. 9440, Oct 16 at 2217, no Cairo direct, just BBCWS in
English which is via USAGM Tinang, PHILIPPINES. Something`s amiss at
Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6200, Oct 16 at 0655, JBA carrier, probably Hikari
FM, the pirate in NW Mexico, which has been silent for quite a while.
First time I`ve heard a trace checking almost nightly. Now nothing
from other possible pirates on 7300v, 7320.

Then Ron Howard reports: ``[WOR] 6200 kHz. (pirate) testing again ---
6200 AM - For a long time I had not been hearing any Hikari FM
(pirate) signal and assumed he was having transmitter problems. Then
on both Oct 15 and 16, I heard an open carrier with good signal
strength (0450+ UT). Sent an email to the operator of Hikari FM,
inquiring if I was correct in assuming he was testing again. Here is
his reply, with the good news that he plans on returning to the air
before too long with actual audio. Ron (Calif.)

"Yes, I am having problems with my amplitude modulator. I need an
audio amplifier to modulate it. The previous modulator got very hot
and it was very inefficient which led to its failure. Right now the
setup is a modulation transformer and I am building a class E audio
amplifier. This setup allowed me to step up the power a little. The
carrier is on because I will be doing some testing and pretty soon
will be back on air with music. This is if all goes by plan. There is a
lot of new music that will be coming and another reformatting with
now separate time for electronic music and another time for Jpop.
Thank you very much for your support! Best regards."``

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Oct 16 at 1955 UT, NO open carrier signal, no $
icon, so KOCD Okeene is finally turned off - but who knows whether
permanently this time (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local but useless TV signal
is *still* black and silent but at normal strength, Oct 16 at 1858 UT
check. Apparently there is no great demand for 3ABN and subnetworx; in
fact, I doubt many Enidians know it exist, or that it`s our very own,
should scantuning hit on it and save. Yet there are three 7DA churches
here, one of them in Spanish. 3ABN is on an upper tier ch 370 on
Optimum cable, likely directly off satellite rather than RF 17, as
it`s labeled -E, implying there be also a 3-hour delayed -W feed. Hmm,
before this went black there were crawlers warning of a change of
satellites. Online 3ABN program sked displays automatically in GMT
like my computer, including still rerunning `AWR360 Broadcast to
Baptism`, Saturdays at 1930, UT Thursdays at 0330 (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9955, Oct 16 at 0701, TOMBS still via WRMI,
but modulation is crackling; also with Cuban jamming. Tnx a lot!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Oct 16 at 2200, token English from SNR still
holding up VG direct, S9+20. 2207 feature is interview with an
Uruguayan author of a book about survivors of a plane crash in South
America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 16 at 2200, VOT English not off the air today,
in fact just as big a sig direct as 17855 Spain, S9+10/20, but
modulation somewhat distorted, worst during music at 2223. Heavy
accent only makes it worse. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
