Glenn Hauser logs February 20-21, 2025  View Printable Version 
Friday, February 21 2025

Logs
** CANADA. 15034 USB, Feb 21 at 1549, still no signal from CHR Trenton
Military. Apparently finally realized it was pointless to keep default
auto-uttering ``no report received``? NO, there it is Feb 21 at
1811-1823, JBA into Maryland SDR, nothing but NRRs, furthermore, stuck
on the same NF/NS/ON sites over & over, both terminal forecasts, and
aviation weather. A bit better into PEI SDR. Later on to AB/MB/BC
locations. ID and timecheck at 1815 for ``1715 zulu`` and 1820 for
``1720``, even their clock is wrong. 2131 recheck, still nothing but
NRRs for Zagreb, Split, Ancona-##, Thule. Will they ever get their act
together? Gross perpetual errors like these could be deadly if any
pilots depend on them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Feb 21 at 1548, RHC S8/S9 but JBM music. Something`s
always wrong at RHC. It`s mystifying why this and some other stations
keep turning on a transmitter, yet unable to modulate; is this a
matter of engineers ``just following orders`` while management is
clueless about the result, not even turning on a receiver? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY [non]. 15215, Feb 21 at 1600, nothing but clickery into
Maryland SDR: like OTH radar but narrowband less than 10 kHz wide.
This is the long traditional time for once-a-year broadcast of Radio
Öömrang, via FRANCE. But no specific advance publicity about it this
year. The clickery took a break at 1606*-*1611 and off again at 1612*.
One unconfirmed report from unknown source said this year it would be
UT Feb 22 at 0100 on 15125 via France, so check for it then if you can
pull away from AAAWWW on WBCQ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 6050.002, Feb 20 at 1945, VOT in Turkish music so
it`s still not TRT World TV soundtrack, S9+20/40 into UTwente, 1946
``with-you-every-hour`` promo, and 1952 first episode of a new
segment, but I could not understand the title, something
``Definitions``? ACI from 6055 French, which is CRI to W Africa via
Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against
Uyghurs and other Moslems (GLenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. MCW identifiable ND beacons during LW bandscan Feb
21; see UNIDENTIFIED for 33 more!

245, FS, Sioux FallS SD at 0706
257, JYR, YoRk NE at 0711
293, FBY, FairBurY NE mixing/alternating with UI qUIncy IL at 0715
326, two mixing, one surely MA, MidlAnd TX at 0720
338, RYN, Tucson AZ at 0723
346, dash and YXL SiouX Lookout ON at 0725
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2283 monitoring: confirmed first
SWBC, Friday February 21 at 1316 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, S9 direct.
WRMI was off the air yesterday for huge FP&L project replacing
transformers, so power supply should be more reliable now.

Surprise: Friday February 21 at 2147, WRMI 9955 with WOR from 2130.
It`s long been on the System B sked, but supposedly only on internet
until *2200 for 9955. Result of the transformer upgrade? Poor
undermodulated direct, but S9+25/35 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed Friday February 21 at 2148 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
1322.998, S9/S8 into UTwente across Europe. Next:

2300 UT Friday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?];

Thanks to Ron Howard, Monterey CA who sent a check on a US bank to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, and ``Happy Chinese
New Year``

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

** U S A. 9330, Feb 20 at 2010, only a JBA carrier from WBCQ/WLCR,
even weaker than 9265 WINB; what`s wrong? Unless it`s totally off and
this be a revived Cuban spy numbers transmitter reactivated at a
totally different time, No other 9330 broadcasters listed around this
time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Feb 21 at 0706-0730 UT, LW bandscan in USB tuning hears
scads of JBA carriers. Noise level must have diminished, but still far
too much to pull many IDs. I think these are genuine, since they are
all on ``even`` kHz, .0 and the NRD 545 is not subject to images from
MW, where we have only 3 local stations anyway. I could spend hours
checking listings and speculating on most likely sources, but won`t.
Here they are, skipping over a few which could be IDed, and filed
separately under USA:

227, 233, 251, 260, 278, 280, 284, 299, 305, 307, 326: two mixing,
335, 341, 344, 350, 356, 365, 379, 382, 385, 388, 391, 392, 395, 400,
404, 407, 412, 414, 417, 419, 420 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 660, Feb 21 at 0733 UT, Spanish in mixture, can copy
only a partial FM frequency starting with ``91``. No fits in IRCA
Mexican Log; and there is only one USA 660 SS in NRC AM Log, Oregon
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6051.0, Feb 20 at 2057, CWQRM to something on 6050 into
UTwente. This is really uncopied Morse code, not OOK unlike 6001 logs.
Nothing on 6051 in Klingenfuß 2022. 4XZ Israel? 6050 victim would be
Xizang RTV = Tibet, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide; unless Turkey
forgot to turn off its 6050 by 2025 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs
** CANADA. 346 MCW kHz, Feb 20 at 0726 UT, YXL, 1000-watt ND beacon at

Hauser, OK, WOR)

has a sufficient if not strong signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 1141.0, Feb 20 at 0742 UT, JBA het against 1140.0 stations,
presumed to be from Cuba; it was once necessary to jam Miami`s 1140
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 660, Feb 20 at 0733, ID break in Mexmx: ``XHGBO, 92.1 y 660

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, Feb 20 at 0415, anti-*rump pirate, tnx to
tip from Walt Salmaniw. I`m getting it via Alberta remote at S7/S9.
Music bits mixed with comments about Ukraine war, calling *rump
various names. 0419 about celebrating Canadian flag day festival -
that was Feb 15, the 60th anniversary of the Maple Leaf flag - so is
this really from Canada, as few Americans would even be aware of that?
``The gangster in Mar-a-Lago``. 0423 support Ukraine, avoid WW III.
``DT and his puppet master, Vladimir Putin``; ``our cruel president``.
0424 ID as ``Radio Canada International``. 0429 a stand-up comedy bit
about T. 0430 telling Europeans not to count on USA while he is
president. 0435 another R- C- I- ID. 0436 what happens to civil
liberties if T declares martial law? ``blithering idiot``. ``Buck up,
get in the fight`` - when I recheck at 0450 it`s off. Other reports:

``[WOR] A very interesting Pirate on 6925U --- An extremely anti-Trump
pirate at excellent level into Masset at 0409 UT interspersed with
music and criticizing Americans who elected this "orange faced
monstrosity" Walt Salmaniw``

``Don Moman VE6JY via groups.io -- 6925 loud here in frozen Alberta,
best with beam to SW. Anti - Trump spoken from a Canadian perspective;

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9395, 9955, 15770, 17790, Feb 20 at 1543, NO signals from
WRMI, because: https://www.facebook.com/wrmiradio

``WRMI Radio Miami International --- Important Notice: On Thursday,
February 20, Florida Power and Light Company will be connecting new
transformers for WRMI. This is the end of a months-long process to
replace the station's original transformers, which date from the late
1970's. The new transformers have been installed, and this should
provide more reliable electrical power and fewer power outages.
However, on February 20 FP&L will have to remove the old transformers
using a crane, and then connect the new transformers to us. This is a
lengthy process requiring a lot of equipment and personnel, so they
told us to expect to be without power from approximately 1300 to 2200
UTC. During this time we will be off the air on all frequencies,
except possibly 7730 kHz and our 9955 kHz live stream (www.wrmi.net).
We will return to the air on all frequencies as soon as the work is
finished. Thanks for your understanding.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1520, Feb 20 at 0745 UT, C&W mixing with KOKC talk at almost
equal level, quickly IDing as KRHW. That`s Sikeston MO, U7
5000/1600/CH 5000. U7 means three different direxional antenna
patterns. Normally inaudible at night here, as night pattern is very
tight north/south from SE MO.
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=N
Day pattern is much broader yet with a notch toward OKC. Maybe we are
far enough away from that angle.
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=D
Critical hours pattern similar to day, but not so deep a notch:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=C
Radio locator shows address a PO box in Mt Vernon IL, which is nowhere
near Sikeston MO: 171 km = 106 stmi apart (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 810.58, Feb 20 at 0710 and still 0748 UT, JBA carrier
hetting 810.00 WHB is back; had not heard it for a few nights since
Feb 15. This is on E/W longwire into NRD 545. But I can also detect it
on handheld D808, in order to DF it tuned to 810 USB: again, approx.
100/280 degrees from Enid, or slightly more clockwise (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2283)

Logs
** CANADA. 6754 USB, Feb 19 at 0722, Trenton Military, ``No Report
Received`` from Calgary, Cold Lake, Winnipeg, Edmonton, and repeating.
Standard derision. Are any reports ever received now? Those with more
patience may keep listening longer. Meanwhile 10051 USB Gander as
usual funxional including Calgary too. At 1627, no CHR signal on day
frequency 15034 USB; while 15150 WMLK is quite audible, S9+25 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. I`ve been remiss lately in not denouncing
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems,
whenever the land of E.T. come up - if you think this exaggerate,
watch THE BROKEN PROMISE which aired on PBS Tuesday night and maybe
repeats: https://www.thebrokenpromisefilm.com/
It deals with far too many instances of genocide, prominent among
them, ``Xinjiang`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, Feb 19 at 1621, S4/S5 music from ex-Hikari
FM, pirate. Numerous logs of it by Rick Barton, Sun City AZ, on
``11530+/-``: Feb 18 at 1700; Feb 16 at 1630, 1715, 2200+; Feb 14 at
*1725, all day, fadeout by 0030; Feb 13 at 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 12100 USB, Feb 19 at 2005, mostly non-vocal hard
rock and pause for YL ID as ``From the United States of America, Mix
Radio International, Worldwide``, S7 into Maryland SDR. Many more
frequent IDs, such as at 2030. Continuing at rechex 2117, 2158, 2227.
At 2120 I tuned it direct: S7/S8, compared to WEWN 12050 S9+15/20. Tnx
to original tip from Eric Fetters-Walp on WOR iog. More reports here:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141171.0.html
So if they assert to be in USA, we don`t need to vagueize it to NAm?
It`s considered poor form for DXers to try to locate pirates, but I
privately run TDOA and get some totally contradictory results, as
usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17755, Wed Feb 19 at 1613, the only REE, S8/9+5, rarely
sufficient direct to here instead of Africa; as 12030 for ME is still
AWOL and WHem channels 9690 & 17715 do not start until 1900 weekdays.
By 2300 for token English, into UTwente we only hear 9690, with 17715
& 17755 presumably not propagating in the nightmiddle. Initial subject
is emergency EU summit conference, tnx to Felodent Drumpf siding with
Putin over ``dictator`` Zelenskyy (Glenn Hauser, OK WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 9660, Feb 19 at 1728, VOT IS with ID in Spanish!
VG S9+20/25 into UTwente. TS at 1730 and s/on English as if it were
1330 on 13635. Somethings always awry at Ankara. Preview of an unnamed
feature, Sports Panorama and Turkish music, into news; 1741 music.
1746 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 1748 music. 1758 about comparative
linguistix, words/concepts which are untranslatable from one language
to another, with many examples, from the journal Science? Did not
catch title of this segment, if any. 1803 music. 1807 Sports Panorama,
yawn. 1815 music. 1821 multi-lingual ID filler reel again! 1823 s/off
as if 1330 on 13635 - something`s always awry at Ankara. 1824 IS.
Chopoff at 1824.7*

6050, Feb 19 at 2013, English also confirmed on 1930 emission,
S9+30/45 into UTwente. Did not check the 2130 on 9610; but at 2300,
5960 is absent, and back to its old trix, 9610.003 is still on
instead, at S9+60! into UTwente. No doubt a repeat of 1930 repeat of
1730 repeat of 1330. Stays on 9610+ to 2355.6* chopoff amid IS.

It so happens that at the very same time, 2300 UT Feb 19, PBS Create
channel features a Rick Steves` Europe [sic] episode on Istanbul!
which is much more informative. At least on OETA-3 in OK, repeats at
0300 & 1000 UT Feb 20:

``Where Europe comes face to face with Asia, we'll explore the
fascinating, multilayered city of Istanbul. We'll lose our way in the
Grand Bazaar and feast like kings with locals at a fisherman's wharf.
We'll follow the fall of the Byzantium and the rise of Islam at the
city's ancient wall, Hagia Sophia, Blue Mosque and Topkapi Palace. To
escape the city bustle, we'll board a boat on the churning Bosphorus,
make friends over backgammon, and try a traditional bath.`` But we
often wonder if old travelogs like this would hold up today, this one
(C) 2008; one can guess by how young Rick may look.

WRTH 2025 skips Turkey, International sexion page 588 going from
THAILAND to UKRAINE! WRTH 2024 still had it with Spanish at 1730 on
9495, English on 9660. And indeed simulSpanish is still on 9495. O,
there it is in 2025 WRTH: page 586, Türkiye alfabetized between
Switzerland and Taiwan. I don`t think U-umlaut falls before A even in
German.

As in my previous report, the 2130 & 2300 English broadcasts were back
on Monday Feb 17 but missing again on Tuesday Feb 18; missed checking
at 0400 UT Wednesday. Alan Roe tells me English did occur today Feb 19
at 1330 on 13635, and:

``TURKEY. As first reported on Monday 17th in the WOR iog mail list by
John Jurasek (VORW) and Craig Tyson, the English Service of TRT The
Voice of Turkey have resumed their programming - that is, the
broadcasts are no longer simply relays of TV audio of TRT World. I
listened on Tuesday and also confirmed that the regular English
presenters are back with VOT programming. It seems that the programme
schedule may have changed slightly compared to what was heard before
their hiatus with "Unscripted Twists of Fate" (previously heard on
Wednesdays) and a new programme "The First Quarter of the Millennium".

For anyone who's lost track of their English frequency schedule, it is:

1330-1425  13635
1730-1825  9660
1930-2025  6050
2130-2225  9610
2300-2355  5960
0400-0455  6125  7285

I'll update and re-upload the programme schedule to
