Hauser
** GREECE [and non]. 9420.002, June 1 at 1549, VOG still going after
latest closure date as they got a 2-week reprieve, VG S9+30/35 into
UTwente with music; 1559:15 ID during which CCCCI is audible: both
CNR6 and CNR15 are scheduled overlapping with widely divergent
targets, Taiwan and Xinjiang. Another hour of Greek music interspersed
with a lot of conversation making it less attractive to non-Hellenix.
1659.15 ERT IS plays again but soon off at 1700* uncovering CNR13
Uighur playing some classical music with same +002 Hz carrier offset.
Now this weaker signal is more subject to ACI from 9425 VOK, maybe
even 2ACI from 9410 CRI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, June 1 at 0336, Station YHWH good into
northern Utah SDR, tnx tip from Eric Fetters-Walp in WA on the WOR
iog; Josiah Elias has been active almost every night lately, but I
myself had not been checking. Usual rants anti-Christ, the ``god-man
hybrid``, anti-Catholic = homosexuals and pedophiles; the one true god
Yahweh will soon establish a worldwide theocracy: no, tnx! Carrier
offset only -006 Hz: he`s frequencily very accurate. 0403 live
timecheck for 9:04 pm Pacific. 0409 playing his ``Days of Hard Life``
themesong, about to close down? No, resumes rant, but gone by 0421
next check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2140 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,

Next new WOR 2141 should be ready early UT Friday June 3 at 0130 on
WRMIs 5850 & 7730 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, May 31 at 2102, WRMI at S7/S9 direct of dead air.
Something`s odd at Okeechobee. Fortunately by a sesquihour later it`s
OK for WOR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, May 31 at 2053 UT, KLEY Wellington has resumed
modulating, rock music after last check yesterday dead air. Now also
suffering from storm crashes. And still modulating 24+ hours later
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9840.37 LSB, June 1 at 0557, 2-way in Spanish, with
engine noise, airplane? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** CANADA. 3330 & 7850, May 31 at 0640, revived CHU is *still*
announcing time *two hours slow* as ``4h,40m``, almost 16 hours after
turned back on. At 1450, both 7850 & 14670 RCUSB too weak to copy
direct. But at 1524 into Ottawa SDR, finally correct. As far as I
could tell, however, the minute markers stayed correct and precise, so
that`s something. Meanwhile, Richard Langley, NB, reports to the WOR
iog, May 31 at 1104:

``Just got this message from the NRC technical officer after reporting
the announced time error yesterday and asking about the off-air
reason:

"Thank you for this, don't know why the time was 2 hours off. It is
fixed now. The antennas were fine. The problem was the generator
failed for a long time so everything shut down. Then we were not
allowed access to the site until yesterday, they just opened the road
where CHU is located this morning."``

And confirmed correct hour being announced monitoring 7850 kHz here in
NB about 30 minutes ago (around 11:45 UTC). -- Richard Langley``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 15034 USB, May 31 at 1455, CHR Trenton Military, still
nothing but ``no report received`` from: Calgary, Cold Lake, Winnipeg,
Edmonton, and repeated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, May 31 at 2214, RHC is S9 but JBM, barely recognizable
as scheduled French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, May 31 at 0633, this is the only RHC English
frequency remaining, S7/S9 but barely modulated and
unusable; still below some hum but no buzz. Something`s always wrong
at RHC. And it`s even weaker than 1-kW 6070 CFRX at S9+10 and amply
modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. From June NZ DX Times: ``1640 KZLS Enid OK ident as “1640
and 1390, the New CTB Fox Sports.” “CTB” refers to
‘Chisholm Trail Broadcasting Company. (Matt Todd-OK via NRC)``

Ha, I avoid my locals so much that this was news to me. Indeed, KCRC
1390 // 1640 May 31 at 0430 during stupid BB game. 11:30 pm local,
multi-inning, or western timezone? 1640 is running about 2 seconds
behind 1390. Why bother such duplication? Well, 1640 gets into OKC day
and night, not 1390. Inside Enid, 1390 is stronger.

A few weeks ago, the far-right ``Eagle`` talk format on 1640 KZLS
replaced Bob music or whatever it was on co-owned 96.9, and they were
running //. 96.9 KQOB ID only as ``The New Eagle, 96.9``, no mention
of 1640, May 31 at 0430 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, May 30 at 2200, token English from REE previewed as
something from Beirut, and author about power, smax of rerun, so I
listen only to the initial news (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 31 at 0500-0506, YP1 via WRMI with
`Ukraine: Security Issue`, tonight by the too-fast-talking guy. Not so
good into Missouri SDR I happen to have running to the NW of FL,
rather than the usual Maryland one onbeam to the NE (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2140 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday May 31 at 0030 on WRMIs into Missouri SDR; 9395 S9+5/10, 9455
S9+15/20. More treble in the 9395 modulation. Next:

2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW]
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15770, May 31 at 1947 late tune in to WRMI, world music fill
already playing instead of VOA `Flashpoint: Ukraine`. Did it at least
start airing today? Also chopped short yesterday and May 24, at least
as I have not tried every day (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, May 30 at 2220 UT, KLEY Wellington KS still
providing zero modulation. Had been dead air May 13-16 after a spell
of sounds, but not rechecked lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5970, May 31 at 0632, DRM-like noise again and now
covering 5965-5975 tho weakly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2044 UT May 31

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST Update

Hi Glenn, My latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm

1) Belgium - R Onda: Direct link to R Onda live stream no longer
works, updated link to the home page where a live stream link is
accessible

2) USA - VOA: Updated link to VOA frequency page, although the freqs
shown are currently sadly out of date (thanks to Bill, WE7W, in WOR
iog mail list); Updated all other links to VOA webpages following
changes to website and new VOA Africa website.

3) USA - WBCQ: Removed reference to discontinued Area 61; added link
to WBCQ 'R Angela' program schedule

The next update is scheduled for late July
Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe, UK

** AUSTRALIA. 10129 USB, May 30 at 0555, hamnet of ragchewers on
Aussie-only 30-m phone band. Besides weakness, very hard to ID as they
seldom do so knowing each other well, let alone clearly or fonetikaly.
10129 is favorite frequency but also have heard some on 10124 USB
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 15034 USB, May 29 at 2219, Trenton Military with ``No
Report Received`` from: Trenton itself!, Ottawa, Toronto, Bagotville,
and keeps repeating same list at least twice more.

15034 USB, May 30 at 1442, still nothing but ``No Report Received``
from: Shannon, Prestwick, Keflavik, Lajes. Those would have been
terminal forecasts; at 1443, different sequence of aviation weather
also NRR: Shearwater, Greenwood, Gander, Halifax, and also repeating.
ID and time as 1440Z --- only 3 minutes slow rather than 60+ sometimes
and than CHU, *two hours slow* --- come on, Canada, you can do better
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 3330 & 7850 & 14670, May 30 at 1551 UT, CHU is back on all
channels, but needs a little more work: Timechex are two hours slow!!
As 1351, and still at 1600 as if it were 1400. Ditto past 1700, at
1748 as if ``1548``. At 1808 as ``16h08m``. At 1954 UT as ``17h54m``.
The English & French announcers must be in cahoots as both are doing
it. Obviously, no one is paying attention! Anyone relying on this will
be 2:00 hours late to do whatever.

Tnx to Don Moman and Joe Caberlin who noted it was back by 1500 UT. It
had crashed at 2000 UT May 21 due to storms and power outages;
occasionally there were carriers but no regular service for almost 9
days of no time for Canada. BTW, on the SDR originally running in LSB,
CHU could be heard but louder via USB. Is this a transmission or
reception defect? It`s supposed to be reduced-carrier upper sideband
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 13530, May 30 at 1437, CNR1 jammer poor, 15920 JBA. At 1448
further typical SOH/CNR1s detected on 13020, 13130 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, UT Monday May 30 at 0441, RHC is S9 but JBM in presumed
English. 6060 is S9/+10 of humbuzz obscuring Spanish; 6100 not on yet;
6165, S9/+20 sufficient in English, mailbag as ``Ed Newman`` gives
email address. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, May 29 at 2217, S4/S5 direct chanting from R. Cairo
and seems undermodulated. On my other rx and antenna at 2235 it`s JBA.
But at 2239 into UTwente, S9+35/40 and extremely distorted English.
Something`s always egregious in Egypt.

My previous report with precise frequency 9439.995 was misquoted as
``9439`` in the May NASWA Journal, as the log editor simply deletes
any numbers after the decimal some of us go to so much trouble to
report precisely! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, May 30 at 0601, RNZP starting BBCWS news relay
by the deep-voiced Neil Nunes from Jamaica --- VG signal, the best we
can get BBC since they dispensed with N America on SW. 0606 into BBCWS
Newsday. Ironically, NZ is not really for us either. See also
UNIDENTIFIED 13840 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. May 29 at 2210 UT, all four of our regular ND beacons are
confirmed active: 255 SW Stillwater, 341 EI Enid, 350 RG OKC, 515 PN
Ponca City, vs high line noise levels. RG had not been audible for a
few days (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 12025, May 30 at 1502, BBCWS news in English at S8/S9
but vs high noise level here. Not a familiar BBC channel, but listed
as Kranji/SINGAPORE at 1500-1900, also 0000-0030 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 10000, May 30 at 1504, WWV is still making a special
announcement during this minute ever hour leading to:
https://www.hamsci.org/wwv
See what you make of it. By now they had moved on to another event
April 30-May 1, also quite passé. A few sweeps were heard at 1608
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2140 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 29 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia, Villa Estense, 1323 kHz, S9+3
into nearby Noale SDR; too much noise on 918 to be sure whether also
on there, maybe a trace; and not on 207 kHz. 1323 JBA into UTwente
across Europe.

Also confirmed Sunday May 29 at 2230 on WRMI 5950 despite replaced by
something else on websked a couple months ago, JBA direct in full
summer day path, but S9 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 29 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+15/20 into
Virginia SDR which is way offbeam from 222 degrees, but a lot better
than I can get 7780 direct perpendicularly.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 30 at 0130 on WRN N America webcast.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 30 starting at 0309.3 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.941, S9/+5 into Maryland SDR, and played to completion 0338 when
HRI starts with a bit of overlap. Delayed start as JL admitted he was
``running late`` past 0300. Modulation sounds a bit rough and of
course narrow AM or LSB or SAL required to minimize 6165 Cuba splash,
which WBCQ is doing nothing about. Next:

0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW
2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW]
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW

Or by MO or check in US$ on a US bank to:
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5950, May 29 at 2317, gospel huxter on WRMI with Athens GA
SDR still tuned here after WOR, finds it keeps cutting off air for a
few seconds: or rather WRMI is OK, but Athens is acting up as there
are no such interruptions when I switch to Knoxville. And Athens
waterfall shows entire bandwidth interrupted (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15770, May 30 at 1935 semi-listening to `Flashpoint:
Ukraine`` from VOA via WRMI, fair into UTwente, when at 1952 suddenly
cuts to fill music; same thing has happened before, program
interrupted somewhere along the line starting with Washington.
BTW, R. Svoboda relay on 9370 is still absent this hour (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5970, May 30 at 0439, weak DRM-sounding noise
intermittently but not 10 kHz wide; in continued absence of WEWN, or
could it be WEWN attempting to resume? What else? Aoki shows Brasil
and Denmark both 24 hours on 5970 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13840, May 30 at tune-in, big open carrier slightly
off-frequency goes off right away at 0550*. Could be NZ as 11725 not
yet on? But VG SSOB S9+10/20 on 15720 with `Checkpoint`. Or testing
backup transmitter? 13840 in Aoki is also a CNR1 jammer/SOH channel,
but doubt that now. Current RNZP sked shows 0558/0559 switch from
15720 to 11725, while 13840 is never in AM, only DRM at 1951-2058
except Saturdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13605, May 29 at 0635, add another frequency to the pointless
overjamming, as OCB of course only uses this in daytime. Sounds like
mixture of at least two sites at different pulse rates (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000 & 6060 & 6100 & 6165, May 29 at 0702, all four RHCs are
off, so Esperantists are out of luck for first weekly broadcast on
Sundays at 0700, now imaginary. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
However, I do hear its sad theme starting about 1501 on 11760 and
presumably secret 15140 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, Sunday May 29 at 0630, RNZP is S9+10/20, SSOB
as usual, not in English but some voices in language, probably Maori,
occasionally lapsing into English terms; 0632 mentions Liam Neeson.
0633 outro and into English music request show of leftover items, from
last night? This is contrary to the schedules online:

RNZP says Sundays at noon-8 pm [= 0000-0800 UT], it`s relaying RNZ
National, so we have to look that up, this date:

``6:06 PM. Māpuna with Julian Wilcox --- Julian talks to Māori
throughout Aotearoa, from sports legends, to business leaders, to
artists and community advocates. (rpt)`` and next show not until:
``6:50 PM``. And, ``The Sunday Night Retro Show`` not until 0806 UT.

BTW, `Mediawatch` starting at 1015 UT, later than previously listed in
our DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS guide. Yet the page of Mediawatch itself
claims it be Sundays 10:12 pm, as well as 9:05 am [= 2105 UT
Saturdays]. BTW2, in case you haven`t heard, funds have been allocated
for RNZP to get a new SW transmitter, which should allow it to run two
frequencies 24/7, one of them DRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. LW/MW beacon check May 29 at 1449: 255 SW
Stillwater is JBA; 341 EI Enid can`t confirm vs elevated noise level;
350 RG OKC, still off. 407 HRU Herington KS JBA. 515 PN Ponca City as
usual strongest of all (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, May 29 at 1925, still no signal into UTwente
from R. Svoboda secret relay, via Armenia? Awaiting word from the
crowdfunders whether this be terminated officially. Not heard since
May 24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, May 29 at 1438, REE on early weekends, but only S8/S9
to N America and just barely modulated. 15520 to ME also seems JBM at
S4/S5. 11940 for S America JBA carrier. K index = 3 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2140 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 29 ending right at 1400 on WMRI Europe, via Channel 292, GERMANY,
9670, S6/S8 into NW Ireland SDR, so started at 1331; 1400 quick ID
``WMRI Europe`` and into Russian - or Ukrainian? Next:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [to be canceled? still May 22]
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW

** U S A. Hepburn tropo map shows level-5 enhancement reaching SE OK,
not to here, but I bandscan anyway, finding numerous BAD signals on
open channels, May 29 after 1500 UT: 8, 12, 14, 20, 21, 28, 30, 34,
35, 36. And only one is decoding way above the other signals: RF 26
with PSIP ID as KTAL-DT. That`s Texarkana ARKLATEX, site in NW corner
of LA, 6-1 with NBC pre-Indy show. The rest: 6-2 Laff, 6-3 Cozi, 6-4
HSN, all of which match:

https://rabbitears.info/market.php?request=station_search&callsign=ktal
Distancefromto.net insists on measuring to N Carolina or S Pacific
unless I spell out LOUISIANA after Vivian, town near transmitter site,
i.e 529 km = 329 statute miles to the SE, close to my OKC-aimed
antenna. TAL originally stood for one of the TALlest towers at that
time, but could also mean Texas/Arkansas/Louisiana, never mind Okla.

My local translator on 17 has also become BAD due to DX QRM, likely
the PBS in Shreveport, KLTS-TV ``24`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 95.1, May 29 circa 1840 UT, dead carrier again into
caradio for considerable distance in north side of Enid on way to
cemetery; unseems a mobile RF feeder, nor the two FM stations vying
for control of channel 236, in Wichita and Shawnee; once it weakens,
their combat starts to appear (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 3330 & 7850 & 14670, May 28 at 2325, all CHUs are still off
after more than a week. Canada is out of time! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, May 28 at 2323, slow rock song S9 direct;
off by 2405 recheck. Numerous reports before my time had this unID:

while after 0010, Yeah Man Radio was on 6925 but in AM (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9913 USB, May 28 at 2328, in routine bandscan run
across pirate music at this unusual spot, jazzy/rock, S7/S9. No STANAG
QRM de 9912 now; not out of 9940 WTWW which is still AWOL. 2332 fading
down and up, 2333 SSTV? but not much variety in the beepery. 2337
music, live performance with applause, but no announcements. 2357
quick ID? sounds like ``You are listening to The Last Nowhere, TBA``;
more SSTV. 2358.5 starts raunchy storyteller with wild audience
roaring continuously; whether a tree is dead, does it matter?
Describes his dick. Current references to Michael Jaxon being on
trial, etc.

May 29 UT: 0010 SSTV. 0011.5 resume bawdy stories on and on; 0041
finishes, who was it? SSTV, 0042 music overlaps, ruining image? 0042.6
music. 0049, ``This is CEO[?]. I`m gonna call it a night; this is
sucked`` - or something like that. Later I check HFU and find lots of
previous logs of Sycko Radio, UT May 22, 24, 27, but NOT tonight!
Until now I was unaware he had been on 9913 before, and with lots of
SSTV captures:

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, May 28 at 1909, for the fourth day, NO signal
from secret R. Svoboda relay site into UTwente SDR. Last day heard was
May 24, but my log then must be corrected as the times were wrong, one
hour late: somehow I mistranscribed my original log scribble without
noticing! Is no one paying attention? Not me, until I see it copied in
new BC-DX as if it were correct, without challenge or correxion. BTW,
I can`t help but notice that many of my fellow DX editors are rather
lax about publishing correxions, no matter who may be at fault. Some
minor typos may not matter but this certainly does. I want to get it
right, later if not sooner. Is anything more important than accuracy?
Everyone should remember that this is/was at 19-20 UT, not 20-21. Make
it read as follows:

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, May 24 at 1856 tune-in via UTwente, OC already
on, 1857.6 JIP Russian, pause by 1900, IS and ID R. Svoboda. So the
secret unofficial relay, via Armenia? Is active today (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2140 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 28 at 1600 on WRN stream to N America, everywhere.

Not confirmed Sat May 28 at 1930 on WRMI 15770: EXACTLY the same thing
happens this week as last week: WOR starts but chopped after my first
eight words, replaced by the same `cello fill music. I ask Jeff about
it again and he now says it can`t play at this time for ``technical
reasons``, and may not ever be able to.

Confirmed Saturday May 28 at 1938.5 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO,
just finishing the NZ clip about halfway thru so again must have
started early circa 1925, steady S9+8 into nearby Warrenton MO SDR -
not to be confused with the one in Warrenton VA.

Distracted by piracy, missed checking UT Sunday May 29 at 0030 on WRMI
7780; did anyone hear it? Anyway at 0105 it`s on with TOMBS.

Confirmed UT Sunday May 29 from 0319 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+10
into nearby SDR but with some storm crashes. Next:
