Thursday, April 20 2023

Logs
** ALGERIA. 9455, April 19 at 0400, RTA Arabic playing martial
national anthem, but no English ID by 0405 as before following NA;
back into Arabic, and Qur`an; break circa 0430 more talk before
resuming Qur`aning. This continues from previous report about this
colliding with reactivated WRMI, worse on receivers further west
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, April 19 at 0625, RHC English, S9/+10 on wrong
frequency yet again and nowhere else on 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 or 15 MHz
bands. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, April 19 at 0620, JBA carrier only here
below 17500 so presumably Dengê Welat and/or Recep`s Turkish jammer. A
few other JBA carriers further up the band as previously explored
despite the nightmiddle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995.000, April 19 after 2300, ORTM mostly nice African
music, vocals and drumming, fair into UTwente with no QRM, S8/9+5.
However, by 2325 there is CubaRM on both sides unless narrowed.
Scott Walker in Virginia had recommended this hour. Of course it`s
also a regular from around *0600 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Severe weather hitting OKC and southward causes big 3
affiliate stations to blow away network news at 2230 UT April 19,
replaced by wall-to-wall weather warnings. KFOR `4` finds a rerun of
`Friends` too important to preëmpt on substation KAUT `43`. No ABC on
KOCO `5`. But KWTV `9` moves CBS news to its substation KSBI `52`,
just in time instead of `Hiway thru Hell` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed April 19 at 2205, token English SNR topic seems
to be about bees, but I don`t have time to listen. Maybe worth
retrieving from archive. But there`s never enough time to hear
everything desired, now or later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, April 19 at 2200, VOT not AWOL today with
opening timesignal, but VP direct; measurement when checked during
music at 2248 via UTwente, S9+45. Off around 2255 with no extra German
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2186 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,
Dear Glenn: Confirming World of Radio #2186, WRMI:

9395, 2330, 2344, 2355 (45343), 2359, April 18 UTC 2023 [Tue]
(Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Also confirmed Wednesday April 19 at 2100:21 on WBCQ 7490 -72 Hz =
7489.928, S9/S7 but noisy even into Maryland SDR; no point in even
checking direct. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

New WOR 2187 should be ready for download early UT Friday April 21 and
first SWBC at 1430 on WRMI 9955

Like our website, a noncommercial service for which financial support
is appreciated; thanks this week to Kelley Sprout, Hughesville PA, for
a PMO to:

on a US bank

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

UNIDENTIFIED. 10125 CW, April 19 at 0627, again something sending
keyboard letters in sequence with pauses: A S D F G H J K L ; Q W E R
T Y U I O P; periodically interjects much faster: VVV DE HK_QQB_ as
only partially and tentatively copied. I don`t suppose it`s from
Colombia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Wednesday, April 19 2023

Logs
** ALGERIA. 9455, April 19 at *0303, RTA Béchar cuts on with Qur`an in
progress. But WRMI has just reactivated this frequency, q.v. From 0250
or 0255 I`m standing by via UTwente, Maryland and Missouri SDRs. At
UTwente there has been a VP signal from WRMI, but now Legends is
totally overriden by Qur`aning, S9+20, making a slow SAH as both are
close to .000. At Maryland, RTA is S6/S8 but well atop RMI. At
Missouri, RMI rules, but we can hear Qur`an underneath, what a culture
clash. Only Aoki shows RTA on 9455 at 0300-0600; EiBi shows 9470 &
9500 but neither is on now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** INTERNATIONAL VACUUM [non]. (106.3), April 18 at 0000 UT, KGOU
Norman OK webcast opens `Fresh Air` teaser, 0001-0006 `National Native
News`; and NO `Stardate` which thinx it`s on KGOU daily at 7 am & 7 pm
CT; amend my previous item. It is on KENW but as early as 0058 rather
than 0100 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, April 18 at 2156, VOT English ID and IS, S5/S8
direct, so not off the air today. And not on the air circa 2310 for
any extraneous German. In between I have better things to do than
frustratingly try to understand her (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2186 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday April 18 at 0042 the 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20 direct.

Also confirmed Tuesday April 18 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20 into
Missouri SDR. Gary Pence, KM5X, also reports on this: ``Hi Glenn, I
just enjoyed listening to WOR 2186 from WRMI`s 9395 kHz xmtr at 2330z.
I copied it real well, S9+25/35db from Central Vermont rSDR K1VL
Shrewsbury VT. Nice audio.

Also. Last night when I was operating late night 20 meter CW, I worked
evidently a maritime mobile Russian craft over the North Pole at
0930z, somewhere and has an interesting page at QRZ.com. His call is
RI41POL.``

Next WOR airings:
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035 USB [low power]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. 9455, April 18 at 2101, WRMI-5 is back!! First noted missing
March 24, after a splatter problem March 19. It`s TOMBS, probably same
as on much stronger 9980 WWCR but not synchro. Now 9455 is S9/S5
direct, about the same as the other RMIs on 9395, 9955. In summer
daytimes, all these should be on higher band, 11 or 13 MHz. 9455 still
TOMBSing at 2330, S9+10/20 into Missouri SDR. At 0000 April 19
switches to Legends.

It shall be very interesting to note whether WRMI and Algeria be
colliding at 03-06 on 9455 as I have been hearing the latter Qur`aning
lately! Answer: see ALGERIA above.

Coincidentally, the WRMI skedgrid has been updated as of today April
18, more than a month after March 12. It always pretended 9455 was
running, but FWIW here`s the System/lineup for it now, all at 285
degrees close to usward:

00-02: K, i.e. Legends except for KBC one day a week.
02-04: C, Legends
04-05: F, Truth [sic] 2Ponder [sic]
05-07: J, SMTV
07-08: F, Fámily Radio
08-09: E, TOMBS
09-10: D, RAE Argentina
10-11: J, SMTV
11-24: E, TOMBS
That`s just consulting the transmission grid atop; there may be
further details or contradixions in the System/programming skeds
below. I have not tried to match up. Ahá: at 0159, RAE in Italian cut
off incomplete, 0200 to music // 5050 so Legends, but break for a
Bible quote. RAE in Italian is not scheduled on any System or
frequency at 0130 or 0200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5130, April 19 at 0233, still no signal from WBCQ Radio
Angela, into Maryland SDR. That makes six nights off, I believe. Must
be serious, what? R. Angela depended on broadcasting every night from
0200 to 0400 or a bit later, never webcasting. Finally circa 1330 UT
April 18, on disgraced Twitter: ``Allan Weiner @AllanWBCQ · 13h [ago]
Radio Angela 5130 kHz is down. Sorry. Bad tubes. Some 40+ years old.
Working on it. Timtron to the rescue. It’s what we do to keep the free
speech flowing. Some tubes not made any longer. Got to dig. WBCQ is a
living radio museum. It’s [sic] staff too😆. More to come🙏.`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, Tue April 18 at 2059, again no signal from WMLK, a day
and hour supposedly active. What`s become of deceased EJOM tapes?
Neighbor in more ways than one, WINB 9265v is audible but poor (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, WTWW-2 continues to be off the air, not clear why,
because it`s the other transmitter, WTWW-1 that George McClintock has
been working on; another update from him in the form of captions to
multi-MB closeups, received April 19:

``WTWW: transmitter damage & power --- THEY used plastic sheets to
cover up the damaged burned up power module holes. They were burned up
when the transmitter changed frequency because they did the change in
high power, out of tune --- not lightning damage. The plastic sheets
kept the air flow over the modules. I always went to low power for the
frequency change to avoid the transmitter coming up OUT OF TUNE in
high power causing module damage.

#1 transmitter has 6 modules down and is capable of about 90 KW, my
personal goal. The FCC classifies 100 KW as 90 KW below or 105 above.
Technically any power authorized as 90% below or 105% above.

THEY wrapped the power connections permanently in electrical tape and
made no plan to repair the modules. Jason said he saw the person
repairing electrical stuff. Ted hired this gentleman and what Jason
saw was all FAKE. I would ask what happened to the insurance 100,000
dollars to repair #1 transmitter that never got repaired. George
McClintock 4-17-2023`` (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10125 USB, April 18 at 0618, phone ham with Oz accent,
weak and does not ID as he cambios to another who is JBA. Same
frequency/area where oddball phone on ``30m`` I`ve logged a few times
before, but 24 hours earlier, CW sending keyboard letters in sequence.
I wish ARDXC would investigate or clarify what is going on there
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs

UZBEKISTAN/TURKEY at 16.10, 16.50, 18.40 UT on April 17 noted in 16 meter-
band noted in Doha Qatar, Athens Greece:

cross checked via web

<http://www.denge-welat.org:8002/;stream.mp3>

<http://www.denge-welat.org>

16.10 UT
17470.011 kHz aligned, Turkish spy MIT security forces program. S=9+15dB.

17460even Undoubtedly Kurdish radio program 'Denge Welat', probably -
rent airtime from Tashkent UZB transmission bcast shortwave
center. S=9+15dB also in Qatar SDR unit. According USAGM moni-
toring RMS logs: Denge Welat scheduled 03 to 22 UT at present.
Checks channels 17450, 17460, 17470, 17480 kHz during the day.

16.50 UT - both programms moved to reverse action
17460.007 kHz aligned, Turkish spy MIT security forces program. S=9+15dB.
17470.003 kHz Undoubtedly Kurdish radio program 'Denge Welat'. 16.54 UT.

18.40 UT - again different usage of these channels
17470.010 kHz aligned, Turkish spy MIT security forces program. S=9+15dB.
17480.009 kHz Undoubtedly Kurdish radio program 'Denge Welat'. 18.57 UT.
S=9+30dB (!) much stronger than Turkish MIT channel signal.

I am puzzled by the observation that Denge Welat signal of April 17,
showed some coverage equality also of the D.W. Tashkent signal with the
typical Oddity of MIT Turkey transmission at plus 10 Hertz on the
Upper Band side.


UZBEKISTAN/TURKEY at 05.50 to 06.05 UT on April 18 noted in 16 meter-
band noted in Doha Qatar, Athens Greece Perseus SDR units:

17450.011 kHz aligned, Turkish spy MIT security forces program. S=9+25dB
proper signal, at 06.02 - 06.03 UT Turkish National Anthem hymn
played. And noted a 2nd transmission string underneath
17449.938 kHz probably a CHN mainland or SOH Taiwan signal in Mandarin.

17469.938 kHz Kurdish radio program 'Denge Welat' noted at 05.54 UT.
to web stream denge-welat.org:8002/;stream.mp3
undoubtedly a typical Tashkent center fq oddity.

17485even CHN CRI Kashgar Xinjiang 500 kW power outlet in Arabic at
S=9+25dB level heard in Doha Qatar SDR remotedly.

[selected SDR options, span 12.5 kHz RBW 15.3 Hertz]

Easy task:

Compare
Same programm with website player check at

17460exec kHz aligned, some 10 kHz upwards now – of 17450 before, S=9+15dB
here in

- rent airtime from Tashkent UZB transmission bcast shortwave center.

Hi Glenn,

Indeed, "which is which"? April 14, from 1432+ UT, music with a good signal
on 17460. Not sure which
