** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed Feb 15 at 1555, no signal from
LRA36 during its former and future? regular broadcast time; into
Argentine SDR, I let it run for half a sesquihour or so anyway, with
nothing.

BUT there it is with music prélude? at 1951 tnx to tip from Horacio
Nigro, when I don`t have time to follow it much further. 1954 RAE ATTW
multi-lingual IDs, back to songs.

From 2151 I`m back on it, mostly music at S9/+12. Maybe it`s the new
temporary 1 kW transmitter they were expecting to improve reception at
higher power than before. 2204 an ID and seeming live saludos to
Marambio Base. 2230 another check direct: no trace of it. Back to Arg
remote: Still going with rather frenetic music at 2252, 2300; 2327 ID
for LRA36, music.

UT Feb 16 at 0007, RAE IDs amid more and more music. 0016 again
greeting Marambio Base including individuals by name, various sectors
there, and mentioning guests from Colombia. Apparently Esperanza is
very grateful for something from Marambio. 0024 plugs the Panorama
Nacional newscast from RNASG the entire month of January on the
Nacional net, somewhat outdated. I notice some hum surges during
pauses between talk and more music until finally chopped off at 0027*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 15 at 0739, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
and no other 9/kHz splits. Gary Pence had detected it earlier at 0404
via Oahu SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Feb 15 at 0757, off-frequency carrier still
detectable from VON, aside better 7260 Vanuatu, q.v. (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 15 at 2302, token English from SNR/REE is
S9+20/35 of DEAD AIR on N American frequency for the entire semihour
and beyond. Something`s nonsensical at Noblejas. The other three
frequencies are nominal, 11685, 11940; and 12030 best and quite
sufficient S9+10/20 despite off the back from ME beam into Maryland
SDR. 2308 recheck already interviewing an author of historical fixion
explaining what`s true and what`s not. Then about a `virtual museum`
he runs, ending with web reference mucain.com which stands for MUseo
CArrera INdias --- that should be a lot more interesting to explore
than the interview. 2328 Hélena concludes with a song (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) See also TAIWAN

** TAIWAN. 9690, Wed Feb 15 at 1628, singing in Chinese? VP with
flutter, cuts off at 1629* but shortly back on a bit to 1630* off
again. Noted since this would QRM SPAIN when its N American service
starts at *1500 weekends. Aoki shows at 1600-1630, Furusato no Kaze in
Japanese, clandestine for N Korea, via Paochung site; 9690 also at
1500-1600 CRI in Bengali via Kunming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.001+, Feb 15 at 2305, VOT VG S9+40 into
UTwente, on the air for English hour. Recheck 2316 outro ``Whipping
Files`` or whatever it`s called. 2317-2325 `Weekly Commentary` by a
guest with an Arabish name, denouncing racism and anti-Islam in
France, making fun of EQ victims in Charlie-Hebdo cartoons. Read by a
VOT announcer and inviting other outsiders to contribute.

I`m trying to monitor Antarctica and Spain at same time, back and
forth via different remotes. 2329 has started a talk about when and
whether to wear shoes --- yes, per 2334 outro it`s been `Feeling
Supreme/The Healing Spring`; then music, no more features caught until
2354 s/off with full English sked, fragment of IS and 2355* off
uncovering the CCCCCCI from Urumqi, std denunciation. It starts at
5960.000+ then creeps up beyond .001+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2177 monitoring: confirmed UT Wednesday
February 15 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/28 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday February 15 at 2202 the 2200 on WBCQ 7490-,
S6/S7 direct. Next:

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

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

** U S A [non]. 9455, Feb 15 at 1630, WRMI missing unlike 9395 with
TOMBS only S5/S6 and steady; rather S6/S9 algo with heavy flutter,
i.e. RFA Chinese via SAIPAN sked per Aoki M/W/F only at 1600-1700,
and/or CNR1 jammer. WRMI 9455 is supposedly 24/7 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Feb 15 at 0756, VP S8/S9 talk from R. Vanuatu, but
better than usual; and still no 7890 or 11835 from no 3945 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9025 AM, Feb 15 at 1632 in routine bandscan, surprised
to encounter President John F. Kennedy`s inaugural address, one of the
great speeches of history, mentions ``first 100 days`` and immortal
phrases like ``let us never fear to negotiate``, but cut off air
abruptly at 1636.6*.

Sounds like could be a regular broadcast transmitter, and S9/S6, even
stronger than 9395 WRMI at S5/S6. I soon find that this has been
previously reported almost exactly one year ago on Feb 18, 2022,
suspected of being US military rather than a pirate:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,93157.msg297341.html#msg297341

Like then, this keeps cutting on for 5 minutes or so, breaks off for 5
minutes or so. JFK certainly deserves more respect! FWIW, further
on/off approx. timings, but this gets old rather quickly: *1652-1657*,
*1702-1707* including 1703 ``Ask not what your country can do for
you...``; end of speech 1704, ``God`s work must truly be our own``,
brief outro by another voice, or rather intro and restarted.
*1712-1717*, *1723-1727*, *1732-1737.5*, *1742.5-1747.5* then some
``running water``; *1752.7-?, *1802.8-1805, restart; *1812.8-?; 1817.5
another restart with Chet Huntley? voice intro, but soon cut off
again. *1823-; 1845 recheck still going; and *1903.5 and 1923 yet
again.

I notified the WOR iog and it seems I am getting it better than in
Michigan or Maryland. I switched from direct to the Missouri remote
for convenience at *1652, hitting S7 and only 3 or 4 Hz
off-frequency-minus (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

VA3KAH/B EN95wc, only one of many other 10m ham beeacons now and many
phoners above 28300. WI5V roster:

We were assigned a 10 m beacon frequency by the IARU Region 2 HF
Beacon Coordinator on January 12, 2011. The transmitter is a custom
built digital beacon producing 10 watts output feeding a Solarcon A99
half wave vertical antenna on 28.168 MHz. The antenna base is 48'

admirably.``

** EGYPT. 9440, Feb 14 at 2229, R. Cairo must be reactivated after
some weeks` missing from here for 2115-2245 English: S9/+20 direct,
undermodulated talk I can`t be sure is English, and some music.
2230-2235 signal seems to weaken and more distorted but not the
extreme as before. I undoze at 2246 to find it gone, just now? Can`t
tell without a remote UTwente check whether this is still/again 5 Hz
on the minus side. As of Jan 13 when it had been gone almost a month,
I quit checking for it frequently but occasionally. Since then no
other reports of 9440 while the 9900+ transmitter remained heard for
some other emissions. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 14 at 0741, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati;
due to lightning skirting Enid, temporarily on indoor longwire of
unknown length, strung around ceilings of two rooms; and surprised to
be hearing this even a bit stronger than normally on external E/W
100-foot LW. But no other 9/kHz splits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.001+, Feb 14 at 2346, VOT with sad song, S9+25 into
UTwente well atop the CCCCCCI; first checked direct at 2327, was S7/S9
also with sad song. At least the English broadcast is on air unlike
yesterday. 2353 s/off with full English sked but jumbled, 2355 IS,
2355.5* off unxovering XJPBS which is one Hz lower, 5960.000+, from
EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs
and other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2177 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday February 14 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9/+20 direct; with Jeff`s
``world is in turmoil`` commercial a few words of which squeezed in

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

** U S A. 5050, Feb 14 at 0157, WRMI Legends on NF for first time,
ex-4980; checked just after I hear some guy on 9395 talking about it
as registered 2300-0500. Music playing is `Telstar` by The
Tornado[e]s, a really neat tune and one-hit wonder. 0200 no ToH ID but
quoting Deuteronomy which ought to be off-topic! In this case, WWRB is
gone for good, yet Aoki still imagines it; so Ted ought to be able to
stay here, unlike a brief bit on 5085 which the real WTWW reclaimed.
4980 opened back up for East Turkistan a bit earlier along grayline,
that is, XJPBS Urumqi in Uyghur, std denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Feb 14 at 0736, no signal from WRMI-5, normally legacy
Fámily Radio hour in Spanish. Certainly not due to propagation, since
9395 inbooms S9/+10 with SMTV cult, and 9955 S9+20 with TOMBS cult. I
also notice supposedly 24h 9455 absent at various other daytimes
