** CUBA. 11760, March 2 at 0748, S9+20 of dead air; AND 11670, S9/+10
of dead air; obviously RHC which may have been modulating English or
Spanish before 0700; while no RHC signals remain on 5, 6 or 10 MHz
bands. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Other Side:

``One year of war in Ukraine: a timeline of the Cuban regime's support
for its Russian ally --- Havana has tried to ease the UN’s pressure on
Moscow and has echoed Putin's disinformation in Latin America.
DDC Madrid 01 Mar 2023 - 01:47 CET

Russia's war in Ukraine is one year old. Since February 24, 2022, more
than 42,200 people have died and 14 million have been displaced in
what Vladimir Putin defined in his speech as a "special military
operation" in defense of the Donbas region. Beyond the human and
material consequences for Ukrainians, the first territorial invasion
of a sovereign state in Europe in 80 years has had international
repercussions, from food to energy.

What the western democracies condemned from the very first moment, and
continue to today, with heavy sanctions against the aggressor, was
justified by the Cuban regime, also from the beginning of the
conflict. Havana has been in charge of reducing pressure on Moscow
exerted by the United Nations, and has disseminated the disinformation
spouted by Putin across Latin America...``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670 & 11760, March 4 at 0735, no overtime carriers from RHC
unlike most madrugadas recently. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. March 5 at 0747, NO RHCs to be found on 5, 6, 10 or 11 MHz
bands; boding ill for Esperanto Sunday at 0800. A carrier on 12120
might have been 2 x 6060, and no other broadcast now on 12120 per Aoki
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9330, Sun Mar 5 at 0759, Spy Numbers presumably about to end
non-daily 0700 transmission; and no sign of WBCQ/WLCR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

RHC not turned off again. Nowhere else on 5, 6, 9, 10, 11 or 13 MHz
bands. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 7 at 1609, no signal from RHC which is supposed
to run past 1600 middays, but 15140 succeeds. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, March 8 at 0437, R. Progreso, is AWOL; as is 5040 RHC,
but active on 9535, 9650. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba.

Logs
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, March 8 at 2318 check into Argentine
SDR, no signal from LRA36; we were somewhat expecting it if this be
Wednesday, but there was no advance notice either (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, March 8 at 0437, R. Progreso, is AWOL; as is 5040 RHC,
but active on 9535, 9650. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. The
Other Side:

``Cuba: from the worst socialism to the worst capitalism --- Fidel
Castro's successors are dispensing with the Cuban Revolution and its
'achievements' while assembling a Frankenstein system comprised of
rotten pieces of oligarchical capitalism and the most vapid socialism.
Rafaela Cruz, La Habana 07 Mar 2023 - 18:29 CET
READ TODAY THE CUBA OF TOMORROW March 8, 2023

Fidel Castro was a master of the art of prostitution, auctioning off
Cuba to the highest bidder in his foreign policy, and fabricating a
myth of Cuba as an anti-imperialist titan, for decades he was able to
maintain an economically devastating model based on a centralized
economy. His heirs, however, politically speaking, have little to
sell, such that, although China, Vietnam, Russia, and, lately, even
Venezuela continue to humor Cuba, with its latest antics, the concrete
help they provide is scant.

When Fidel died, a major part of the Revolution's political capital
perished along with him, and the rest has dwindled due to the
cowardice and ineptitude of Raúl Castro and his accomplices, who have
been left with no choice but to dismantle the centralized economic
model (excellent for oppression, but terrible for production) so that
the country might advance, which means, simply speaking, returning to
capitalism, liberalizing the economy.

This is what Miguel Díaz-Canel and his band of obese henchmen,
educated in the Ñico López school, are up to, dismantling "socialism"
step by step, timorously, because they do not want end up like
Gorbachev...``

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 910 kHz, March 8 at 1845 UT, classic rock
music; surely at midday only 13 minutes after local mean noon, it`s my
nearest and usual groundwave station, KVIS, in Miamuh, NE corner of
the state. But I thought it was a gospel huxter. Tunes continue with
brief pauses, no DJ announcements or ads or any talk, as if playing
album. Surely they will legally ID at nearest top-of-hour opportunity?
NO, same deadair breaks at 1858, 1903.

Let`s see what radio-locator gets us about KVIS:
http://www.okradiostation.com/kvis-910am.html
brand is KINGS VISION --- no possessive apostrophe, so refers to more
than one king but only one vision? Ha, obviously means King Jesus. But
this is not a theocracy! So what does program sked show? It`s woefully
incomplete, me not deleting anything but Sat & Sun headers extracted
from running on at end of previous line. Times are 12-hour UT -6 soon
to be UT -5. Nothing about playing classic rock hour after hour:

``About Us --- King's Vision KVIS 910AM features Southern Gospel
music, nationally recognized family shows, preaching, and news and
weather at the top of each hour. [sic]

​Schedule Monday Through Friday:
7 am-9 am Morning show
7:30 am VeggieTales
8:20 am Everyday Moments w/ Joyce Meyer
8:45 am Family Minute -1 minute
Pastor Charles Clevenger (Monday ONLY)
9:30am DIAL-A-TRADE
11:00am Focus on the Family
11:30am Everyday Life w/ Joyce Meyer
2:07pm Everyday Life w/ Joyce Meyer
7:00pm Adventures in Odyssey
Saturday
10:00am Gaither Homecoming
7:00pm Adventures in Odyssey
Sunday
7:00am Gaither Homecoming``

So Joyce Meyer should be on after 20 UT, but no, more classic rock
after 2000 and 2052 check. Unless only 1 minute and I missed her? J.M.
is a Bible ministry. Looks like there is an awful lot of unsold g.h.
time.

I verify that the signal is from E/W, pointing to Miamuh, but there is
also a SAH of almost exactly 2 Hz = 120 fades per minute, too weak for
any audio even aimed N/S nulling KVIS. The second and third closest
910s to Enid are KINA Salina KS, 500 watts direxional, 273 km = 170
miles to the north; and KATHolic, Frisco TX, 1000 watts direxional,
373 km = 232 miles to the south, both approx., city-to-city. Neither
in the MWOffsets roster but KVIS was 0.9 Hz high, over 5 years ago!
Miamuh is also 273 km = 170 miles, but per coverage map on website,
pulls inward toward those two stations, not meward (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 27, March 8 at 2342 UT, KFOR ``4`` misses about a
minute of NBC Afternoonly News. I was watching direct via antenna when
it went black and silent, still on the air. By the time I got another
set tuned via Optimum cable, it was back. Maybe another solar transit
outage in the equinoxial season? If so must be via satellite way out
west as we are approaching sunset. STOs were a lot more fun in the
Analog Era, when the video would gradually fade into noise (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 12030, Wed March 8 at 2300, token English from SNR, VG into
UTwente. 2304 report from Beirut correspondent about International
Women`s Day and someone winning an award? What`s this Spain/Lebanon
connexion repeatedly? 2307 into major interview about equity, for IWD.
2330 into French, when I get around to checking the other frequencies:
9690 is on, 11685 is on with RTTY QRM into Maryland SDR, but 11940 is
OFF. Something`s not right at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004, March 8 at 2300, NO signal from VOT or
anything into UTwente, when VOT English to us is supposed to air. I
let it run with offtuned BFO to notify me when anything oncome. That`s
at *2309.2, Chinese, XJPBS Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation,
in its usual late opening. But still no VOT; until at 2327 I hear the
distinct `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring` theme, apparently just
turned on the air, but the spot is closing, not opening. There are
split-second breaks in S9+25/35 transmission occupied by Chinese. Then
``Always By Your Side`` promo, music, and at 2347 another ``ABYS``,
music. 2351 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2353 s/off for 1330, 1930
and 0400 broadcasts only = something`s always awry at Ankara. 2354 IS.
2356 restart IS with GERMAN IDs interspersed. 0000 UT March 9,
timesignal, s/on German and keeps going until suddenly cut off at
0026* as the sleepyrator must have awakened. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2180 monitoring: ``Hello Glenn, The
IRRS MW 1323 kHz relay Sunday night 2100-2130z has been a good and
reliable way of hearing WOR here in Central Europe. I attach 2 more
short snippets of this past Sunday [March 5] just fyi. Nothing heard
on 207 or 918 kHz. At times, a co-channel station beating at a few Hz
vs. IRRS fades in and out again, this must be Smooth Radio, Brighton,
UK, 500 Watts. When IRRS closes for the night by 2210z, Smooth Radio
is in the clear, but way weaker than IRRS. Best regards, SWL Tobias,
S. Germany``

``9395, UNITED STATES, WRMI 0130. World of Radio program. Good,
monitored on RS SW-2000629 and indoor wire, stayed steady, strong to
the end of the bx at 0200 -- Good Mar. 7 [Tue] (Rick Barton-AZ)``

``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 #2180,
congratulations, WRMI: 9395 kHz, 0031, 0046, 0059 (45333), S9
signal, 0059, March 8 UTC 2023 [Wed] (Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Confirmed UT Wednesday March 8 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+20/30 into
Missouri SDR.

Confirmed Wednesday March 8 at 2200 on WBCQ 7489.9; vs heavy storm
noise level from a lightning line across north-central TX. It`s a
strain merely to recognize my voice under all this. By 2226 I make
out a few key words including Vietnam, implying it`s really the
correct 2180 WOR. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S [not on air last week]

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, March 8 at 0437, no WTWW despite nominal sked of
0000-0530. Also not heard 9475 since test and then unID carrier (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330v, March 8 at 0437, 1855 and later chex, WLCR/WBCQ still
AWOL. What`s wrong? Not a twit from AW about this, but last two
entries of March 6 and 4 mention only 7, 6 and 5 MHz frequencies, and
these words of wisdom: ``Biden adm going communist. War imminent. This
is your big plan? Nuts. Worst leadership since Hitler`` We beg to
differ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, Wed March 8 at 1855, WMLK is on with EJOM, S9/S7.
Someone found it AWOL on Sunday, while its day off is supposed to be
SaturSabbathDay.

9265V, meanwhile, neighbor WINB is *really* wobbly now (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, March 8 at 1840 UT check, KLEY Wellington KS back
to usual programming: DEAD AIR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0111 UT March 9
