** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, Sept 26 at 0607, HK3QQ on again with
keyboard-letter-sequence beacon. Could not copy X instead of P after
O, so maybe deleted if not corrected (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE [and non]. 6100, Sept 26 at 1542, S9 of rock music, no
announcements until 1558*, heard via UTwente, one of the frequencies
publicized for La Boulangère, Mini-Transat yacht race, weather info on
its first day with delayed departures. Something JBA during dead-air
pauses, 1549 and 1555, must have been as scheduled CRI in Russian via
Kashgar, and unimpeded at 1600, CRI theme music starting weak Hindi.
Also possible at 1500 are 5975, 13735 and 15300; first check direct at

Canaries, then Canaries to Guadeloupe. Probably using higher bands
later in the further race (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11545, Sept 26 at 1515, only signal below 11575
JBA carrier is VP music, Turkish? Presumed current jumparound

EU, Spain exports to UK. 2217: Sept 26 is European Day of Languages,
so about Lorca and Cervantes. Catalan, Basque, Galician, Valencian are
``co-official`` along with Castilian. Into evolution of langs in
Iberia. All considered Romance langs except Basque. Catalan even
reached Italy, but suppressed in 18th century. 1932 established as
official in Catalonia, but persecuted during Franco years, forbidden
but used privately. Post-Franco in 1975 recognized as official.
Valencian is dialect of Catalan. Catalan also spoken in Andorra, small
community in Sardinia. Euskera = Basque is non-Indo-European, no
similar languages, thought to be original, traced back to paleolithic
era. Franco also persecuted it. 900,000 people speak it, also some in
southern France. Galician, became distinct in 9th century. Was spoken
but not written. Renaissance in 19th century. Franco pushed it aside.
More than 2 million speak it now in Galicia and vicinity. Besides
these 4, lesser known languages named, including a ``whistle``
language in Canarias. Ends with song in Galician. [¡NEVER mentioned:

** U S A. 5085, WTWW update: notes of phone call from George
McClintock, Sept 25: Now plans to return to air next Monday = UT
Tuesday Oct 3 at 0000 UT, first hour with old recordings of Pastor
Pete Peters, as carefully chosen by someone in New Jersey; and
0100-0500 with a new non-religious programmer which had been on KVOH
and may still be on WRMI: he can`t remember its identity. This will be
daily. Sometime later will move up start-time to 23 UT with PPP, and
the other, originating in NC, an additional hour, 00-05 UT. Rather
than 90 or 100 kW, will run 50 which is considered sufficient.
Eventually, `Bob` wants to run 12 hpd. 9475 would be activated even
later. Adam Lock, ex-WWCR during the George era, has been invited to
record IDs and QSY announcements, but hasn`t had time to do that. So
the prospect of scrapping the equipment is postponed. Some of it may
go to the VOH Zambia operation. Still pending, a new owner may need
garage room, so #3 transmitter would have to be removed. By now all
the modules have been fixed, so ready to go. But the driver needs some
work. Property may be combined with a neighbor for greater eventual
sale value over $ 1 million (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, Sept 25 at 0615 UT steady S9+20 of classic rock
dominates: suspect KLEY Wellington KS reactivated with usual 250 X its
legal night power of 1 watt. Had been absent since Sept 19. Yes, same
steady S9+20 rock on daytime groundwave at 1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** NORTH AMERICA. 7300.287v, Sept 24 at 0639, JBA talk in HSNL,
tornado warnings east of OKC. The Christian pirate previously logged
but last heard on Sept 17, also UT Sunday. Tnx to tips from Walt
Salmaniw at 0600 and Eric Fetters-Walp at 0630 who first heard it at
0425 after tip from Lucas Bandura as of 0300, each on a different
exact variable frequency. Never any IDs, it seems, but plays
recorded/podcast sermons. Their best reception on easterly SDRs such
as in WI, NC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2209 monitoring: not confirmed UT
Sunday Sept 24 at 0000 on WRMI 9955; still on sked and supposedly
starting ``later in Sept`` but too late now. Instead still replaying
the same `Viva Miami` interview with a staff member.

WRMI is revamping its systems effective October 2, so maybe things
will be more reliable then, and/or with more transition problems.

Also not confirmed UT Sunday Sept 24 at 0030 on WRMI 7780; instead
some kind of music with regular spoken bits, seems like in a loop.
This airing had been reliable for some months.

Confirmed UT Sunday September 24 starting at 0408, the 0315v on
WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+18 into nearby remote, with heavy storm noise.
Followed ARRL Audio News.

Not checked Sun Sept 24 at 1030 on WRMI 9955; did anyone hear it?
