Glenn Hauser logs April 11-12, 2023  View Printable Version 
Thursday, April 13 2023

Logs
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, April 12 around 2315, no signal from
LRA36 into Argentine, Uruguayan or Brazilian SDRs. It`s Wednesday, so
has been appearing regularly; maybe from 2100 already come and gone.
No one else has reported it. The new 2023 overwinter crewe should
activate soon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA [and non]. 5909.950 & close to 6010.00, April 12 at 0618,
the two reactivations are S9 with separate music: Alcaraván Radio and
La Voz de tu Conciencia. 5910 is clear while 6010 has a low het,
presumably R. Inconfidência, Brasil (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 11850, April 12 at 0629, S7/S9 of dead air with flutter.
HFCC shows DW in Hausa via Issoudun daily at 0630-0700 -- but still
dead after 0630. Might have been RHC, where 11850 is nominally a tarde
frequency only, usually JBM, but no trace now of parasitic JBA spur
carriers on 11860 & 11840 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, April 12 at 1530, S7/S9 with heavy flutter
talk direct. Only active frequency now below 17500. Could be both
Dengê Welat and Recep Turkish jammer, but can`t be sure there be two
signals now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. Re my report of Taupo on 6224 USB, Ron Howard replies:
``Hi Glenn, Regularly I listen to Taupo Maritime Radio on 6224 USB,
usually with fairly decent reception. Not only with marine conditions
and warnings, etc., but also ending with radio "propagation conditions
expected from . . . ."

April 12 - Heard from tune in at 0928 to 0940* UT. My four minute
audio - https://app.box.com/s/vgcfodmjzqb2nj1754tckwhmyarjt4m5
(ID, with frequencies ["2182, 4125, 6215 {not 6224}, 8291, 12290 and
16420 kHz."] at 03:29). Website:
https://maritimeradio.org/taupo-maritime-radio-zlm/
Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, April 12 at 0635, dead air in Hausa from VON on
signature off-frequency, which hardly ever manages to modulate if on
air at all. Incredible incompetence, like several other SW stations
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Apr 12 at 2200, tokEnglish from SNR, VG direct.
After 5 minutes of news, 2205 feature seems to be Hélena interviewing
a sculptress from Lithuania now exhibiting in Madrid. Altho I`m all
for the Arts, REE overdoes it, maybe due to staff interest, or
``safe`` non-political subjects. As always, very lacking any visual
element. At end her name uttered once sounded like Munia ben-Jamada,
hardly Lithuanic and subjects were rather Arabic, so maybe two
separate topix as I dozed and napped unavoidably. Ken Zichi has been
monitoring and reporting these in much more detail, q.v. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11875, April 12 at 0353, VOT English on totally wrong
frequency signing off what should have been on 7275 from 0300, and off
at 0354.7*. VG into Maryland SDR. Yes, 11875 not 11785. Tnx to tip
from Ricky Leong, AB who had been hearing it since 0315. If it were
11785, I figured they would have failed to change frequency after the
previous English at 2200. It is still on 6165 with the usual warble,
no more RHC, but that`s for Asia, not us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, April 12 at 2158, VOT IS, so not off the air today,
usual slightly overmodulated distorted. But I opt to escuche
Spainstsead, q.v. Furthermore check circa 2315 to UTwente found no
extra German either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2185 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 #2185, WRMI:

5850, 0131, 0143, 0159 (55333), (55344), April 8 UTC 2023 [Sat]
15770, 2234, 2245, 2259, S 7 signal, April 8 UTC 2023 [Sat]
9395, 2330, 2344, confirmed 2359, April 11 UTC 2023 [Tue]
(Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Confirmed Tuesday April 12 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/25 into
Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday April 12 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 minus 72 Hz =
7489.928, S8/S9 into Maryland SDR. Next:

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

New WOR 2186 should be ready for download early UT Friday April 14;
first SWBC Fri 1430 on WRMI 9955, also by webcast and telephone.

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html

Like our website, a noncommercial service for which financial support
is appreciated; by MO or check on a US bank to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA

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

** U S A [and non]. 5980, April 12 at 0234, two audios mixing but with
NO jamming! It`s WWCR 5890 leapfrogging over 5935. I took it to be
Brother Scare but sked shows this hour only UT Tue-Sat is E. C.
Fulcher instead. Residual Cuban jamming again audible at 0617 and
nothing else since 5890 is off weeknights. The jamming stix here since
5980 once upon a time was used by R. Martí (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4840, April 12 at 0619, S9+30 of dead air. As happens not
infrequently latenight to WWCR-3 when TOMBS is supposed to be heard.
No loss! But demonstrates a management not really serious about its
job, or it would have a human constantly monitoring all 4 transmitters
24h; o, that could drive even gospel huxter sympathizers batty; how
about 5-second spot chex every 5 minutes? and/or some fail/safe setup
to restore. Do clients silenced get a rebate or make-good, or even
know what`s happening?? OTOH they could pay a little extra for the
bonus leapfrogs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re the KSEN 1150 MT DX test I heard April 10: SSTV image
captured by Bruce Portzer, WA:
https://groups.io/g/IRCA/topic/98179765
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, April 12 at 0635, weak signal with presumed Bislama
talk from RV, still active here at least until 0659. Much more
successful than neighbor Nigeria 250 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0006 UT April 13

Logs
** AUSTRALIA. 28266, reply to my report to beacon VK4RST:

``Hi Glenn, Thanks very much for the report of Vk4rst, it’s great to
know the beacon is been heard and used. We also here heaps of USA
beacons heard here daily, there are only 6-7 active 10m beacons in Vk,
vk2rsy is another one to listen for on 28.262. Sorry I don’t eqsl, but
have being thinking of getting some dedicated qsls for Vk4rst. Thanks
again for the report Glenn. 73’s mate Vk4pr`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 6016.685, April 11 at 0044, Spanish pop music with
distortion and breakups, S8/9+10 into Bonaire SDR.

Tnx to tip from Lucas Bandura, BC in the WOR iog at 2318 April 10:
``Organización Radial El Prado 6016.68 kHz --- The Colombian pirate is
back on the air; it had been over a month since I last heard this
station. Listening on the Bonaire KiwiSDR, S9. At tune in 2248 UT,
there was little or no modulation. At 2304 some buzzing and the
modulation started. The music is very distorted and is cutting in and
out. The op spoke briefly at 2317 with lots of feedback.``

At 0125 I get it direct on 6016.685, but only a JBA carrier (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 5909.950, April 11 at 0048, Spanish songs, S9 into
Bonaire SDR. Must be reactivated Alcaraván Radio as Rafael Rodríguez
R., QSL manager had said would soon happen after 6010, LV de tu
Conciencia. Now there is a much weaker signal on 6010, not LVC? Maybe
same transmitter now trying 5910. Announcement at 0059 but no ID
caught; 0104 about historia de Colombia.

Meanwhile, this from RRR at 0030: ``Emisoras Campaña de Fuerza de Paz
- Colombia para Cristo AL AIRE! Hi Dx friends, After almost 5 years
off the air and an effort led by Martin Ste[n]dal, today the three
signals originating from Lomalinda, Puerto Lleras, Meta are active:
1530 kHz, 5910 kHz and 6010 kHz. Monitoring and reports are
appreciated and will be confirmed with eQSL. Reports to
rafaelcoldx (at) yahoo.com Rafael Rodríguez R.``

At 0124 I found 5910- better direct, S8/S9 with music, than via
Bonaire with its local noise problem. At 0125 there seemed to be two
weak signals beating on 6010, Brasil & Colombia? 0304, 5910 in
preaching segment citing Matthew XXIV; music at 0405; still 0627 S8/S9
direct while 6010 is S8/S9 but softer with not // music. 5910 is a
good clear frequency this A-season, nothing else on it but Romania in
the Colombian daytime, 1430-1957 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, April 11 at 1524, music and this time the
only signal below 17490. Maybe both Denge Welat and Turkish jammer are
coinciding again. 17455, April 11 at 1857, JBA signal only here under
the 17450 area whine - maybe both stations, can`t tell (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185, April 11 at 0631, XEPPM again in dead air, S9/+10,
too bad (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4810, April 11 at 0632, S9 open carrier vs CODAR swirshes, R.
Logos leaving it on all night? Unlike 4820, Senda Cristiana, no signal
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, April 11 at 2200, VOT English is not missing, VG
S9+40 into UTwente, somewhat overmodulated/distorted. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler. Usual s/on with partial English sked not
including this one, OM with news. 2212.5-2213.7 barely more than a
minute of `Review of the Turkish Press`. 2214 std salute to foreign
search & rescue teams, music. 2218.5 `Weekly Commentary` penned by
Simon Fisher[sp?], PhD candidate somewhere, about the impact of AI,
read by the YL with horrible accent until 2231. I defy any native
speaker of English to follow, understand her. She could polish her
speech if she ever listened to VOA. Or if it was ``penned``, trouble
reading his handwriting? 2231 multi-lingual ID filler reel, music.
2243 `Turkey`s Geomarked Products` about quince, Turkish Delight
recipe. 2245 music. 2248 every hour TRT with you promo. 2253 s/off as
if this were one of those four other broadcasts. Something`s always
awry at Ankara. 2254.6 IS plays a few times, chopped off at 2255.7
before it can lead into German. Why do I keep monitoring this? Despite
critiques, grateful it`s one of few countries left broadcasting
English to us on SW! Hope Recep loses (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2185 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday April 11 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/28 into Missouri SDR.
Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035 USB [low power]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

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

** VATICAN. 15565, April 11 at 1528, VR IS, 1530 opening Amharic,
S9+10/20. Incredibly, this is the strongest signal on band = SSOB,
supposedly aimed 140 degrees from SMG toward Ethiopia. Another example
of off-target coverage by this site: maybe accidentally aimed
backwards toward us at 320 degrees; or back-radiation not suppressed
at all. 15565 runs from 1530 to 1830 in a variety of languages, 250 kW
with azimuth changes depending on the particular African destination.
Several other Eurosigs on 19m much weaker, not to mention NAmsigs on
15825, 15770 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6225 CW, April 11 at 0632, exactly 24 beeps per minute,
like a strange timesignal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Subject: [WOR] Glenn Hauser logs April 9-10, 2023

CUBA [and non]. 6000, April 10 at 0546, RHC English VG, only
frequency still on, except for harmonic 12000, S7 at 0555. Longtime //
6165 seems gone for good: At 0256, it`s the TRT IS instead prior to
its English not for us but Asia, and its higher pitch chirps tinkle
ACI against WBCQ dead air on 6160-. Previously 9700 seemed to be RHC`s
replacement but that`s not on at 0300 either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. 11670, April 10 at 1515, RHC Spanish is S9+5/10, maybe atop
Spain? which starts at 1500 weekdays. This RHC frequency of course is
normally tarde-only. Mistake for 11760? That and 15140 are both AWOL,
nominally the only midday channels. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

KURDISTAN [non]. 17470 & 17480, April 10 at 1513, two signals
around here again imply Dengê Welat and ``Radio Recep`` jammer are
failing to coincide, so why bother? 17480 is stroonger with S5/S8
talk. April 9 Aoki presents as if there be an exact frequency rotation
oddball sked for DW, while jammer stay on 17480:

17450 1040-1155 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17455 1750-1910 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7

17480 2155-2350 CUB Cuban Spy Numers Spa Bejucal 357
17485 0630-0800 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7

If Tashkent really be the site, this must mean they have at least one
transmitter not perpetually off-frequency-minus. Also leaving in the
few extraneous entries in same range, EiBi rather differs as of Apr 6

Logs
** ALGERIA. 9455, April 10 at 0549, rock music at S9+10/20, WRMI
reactivated #5? 5050 Legends already off. But 9455 at 0551 in Arabic.
SMTV? sked at 0500-0700. Recheck 0559 for ID, it`s off already. Not in
HFCC, but Aoki shows Algeria Qur`an service via Béchar site at
0300-0600. If WRMI reactivate, this will present a problem (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 28266 CW, April 10 at 2225, dash DE VK4RST, and a quick
scan does not find any other 10m beacons. This is more like it, WI5V:
``28.266 VK4RST C SAINT GEORGE, AUSTRALIA 5W, VERTICAL New 1 December
2017 (SWL David Vitek)`` -- presumably Qsld -- I don`t know about
VK-land, but US call areas are meaningless as hams move around and
retain old calls. Yes, per QRZ.com but it has no humaname!

``VK4RST Australia flag Australia, 10m Propagation Beacon, 28.266 Mhz,
St George QLD 4487, Australia, QSL: Vk4pr. VK4RST is a 10m propagation
beacon in grid QG41hw St George, Southwest Queensland, approximately
550 km due west of Brisbane. The beacon`s power is 10 watts into a 1/2
wave vertical antenna 15m agl and 200m asl. Reports would be
appreciated via vk4rst@gmail.com `` But VK4PR is: ``VK4PR Australia
flag Australia, Peter "Mutchy" Mutch, 74 Grey St, St George QLD 4487,
Australia`` I have sent him a report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6000, April 10 at 0546, RHC English VG, only
frequency still on, except for harmonic 12000, S7 at 0555. Longtime //
6165 seems gone for good: At 0256, it`s the TRT IS instead prior to
its English not for us but Asia, and its higher pitch chirps tinkle
ACI against WBCQ dead air on 6160-. Previously 9700 seemed to be RHC`s
replacement but that`s not on at 0300 either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, April 10 at 1515, RHC Spanish is S9+5/10, maybe atop
Spain? which starts at 1500 weekdays. This RHC frequency of course is
normally tarde-only. Mistake for 11760? That and 15140 are both AWOL,
nominally the only midday channels. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, April 10 at 0614, JJBBA carrier from R.
Kiribati, and no other 9/kHz splits below 1220.

I caught another airing of the documentary on PBS -- certainly fleshes
out a country beyond our JBA carriers! Shows considerable sympathy for
its sea-level-rise situation, but nothing very substantial to
compensate; Pres. Anote turned over to a successor who in a PS was
said to be dismantling his climate policies! Possible solutions:
floating countries or undersea ``skyscrapers``. Meanwhile one woman
migrated with difficulty to NZ, and government was seeking to buy
enough land on a Fiji island to relocate the 100K citizens. Did
anything come of that? but would risk diluting Kiribati Kulture (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17470 & 17480, April 10 at 1513, two signals
around here again imply Dengê Welat and ``Radio Recep`` jammer are
failing to coincide, so why bother? 17480 is stroonger with S5/S8
talk. April 9 Aoki presents as if there be an exact frequency rotation
oddball sked for DW, while jammer stay on 17480:

17450 1040-1155 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17455 1750-1910 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17460 0330-1040 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17460 1510-1610 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17470 0430-0630 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17470 1910-2025 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17475 2136-2200 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17480 1610-1750 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17480 2025-2136 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7
17480 0400-2200 TUR TRT Recep. Erdogan Tur Emirler 1-7
17480 2155-2350 CUB Cuban Spy Numers Spa Bejucal 357
17485 0630-0800 UZB Radyo Denge Welat Kur Tashkent 1-7

If Tashkent really be the site, this must mean they have at least one
transmitter not perpetually off-frequency-minus. Also leaving in the
few extraneous entries in same range, EiBi rather differs as of Apr
6:

** NEW ZEALAND. 6224 USB, April 10 at 0545, JBA marine weather sounds
like NZ style with coastal names. Yes: EiBi shows ZLM, Taupo Maritime
Radio, never specified as SSB, with numerous 32-minute broadcasts
starting at :03 or :33 past hours, including 0533. Note that this is
circa local sundown. Should be much better for next emission at 0803
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, April 10 at 0619, tune-in VON just in time, dead
air or maybe JBM until cutoff at 0619.8* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6915 USB, April 10 at 0001, rock music S9/+10. 0007
``What condition my condition was in``; interspersed with W&M voice
dialogs, 0007 about paying for transmitter; new sponsor: LifeAlert,
faux commercial ``I`ve fallen and can`t get up``, vs autophone reply,
your waiting time is: 4 hours, etc. Haha. ``You are listening to
Crapola Radio, shortwave pirate, all free, all the time. 0012 music.
0014 ``Brain Brothers shortwave radio net``, more faux ads. Off at
0027* already. Tnx to advance tip of upcoming broadcast on the WOR
iog. Pse QSL? Many more reports here with more details:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 13645-13650-13655, April 9 at 2153, DRM noise. It`s RRI
Tsiganeshti this hour in Spanish. Before 2100 from 2030, English to
NAm on same is not DRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, VG Monday April 10 at 2207, token English from SNR
feature is interviewing some novelist, not of interest, even tho
TURKEY is off, no competition (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 6165: see CUBA [and non]; jammer: see KURDISTAN [non].
11785, April 10 at 2200 and later chex, no signal direct from VOT
English, ceding the semihour to SPAIN but of no interest. 11785 not on
either at 2310 check into UTwente, no extra German. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2185 monitoring: Also confirmed
Sunday April 9 at 2000 UT on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR, with only lite CCI presumably Smooth Radio,
Brighton, England. Listened to 2015 to confirm we were not cut off
after 10 minutes this week, and hope the remaining 14 minutes also
aired. Preceding music show until 2000 is on the NEXUS-IBA sked as `16
Gwendoline Street`. What does that signify? Googling leads to some
real addresses in NZ, Australia.

Also confirmed UT Monday April 10 at 0038 the 0030 on WRMI 7780, JBA
S7 direct and noisy.

Not confirmed UT Monday April 10 at 0300 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160 -67 Hz
= 6159.933, S9/+5 into Maryland SDR which is DEAD AIR from 0256
tune-in until 0340! Something`s messed up at Monticello. However, WOR
does start at 0306 on A51 webcast only. Next:

0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035 USB [low power]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 1150 kHz, April 10 at 0600 UT, no sign of DX test from KSEN
Shelby MT, as delayed oopsie 24 hours; another no show? I`m listening
on DX-398 nulling KSAL as much as possible. At 0605 some tinkling
bells which could have been an else liner. But 0610 I finally copy JBA
Morse code as VVV VVV VVV DE KSEN, and repeated several times. First
few minutes might have been talk indistinguishable from the QRM. So
that`s it: no need to listen another bihour. Besides, I already QSLed
it on November 8, 2020:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Surprised and pleased to receive on April 10, 2023, an eQSL
letter for DX tests almost a year ago, and tnx also to arranger Harry
Dence for the reminder:

``"QSL" VERIFICATION --- Glenn . . . This correspondence serves to
verify your off air reception of radio stations: WWKY AM 990 khz (1

mid–2:00 am EDT / WWKY 0447 UT & WMST 0452 UT respectively). Your
accounting of both station receptions was most accurate. My apologies

UNIDENTIFIED. 6925, April 10 at 0005, only pirate besides 6915 Crapola
is very weak signal here. HFU reports of Damn Skippy on USB, mostly
before 0000:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,112493.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11900.9 USB, April 0554, 2-way in unID language. It
seems no one else bothers to document these INTRUDERS: unidentifiable,
not SWBC, so off-topic, who cares? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
