** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Oct 5 from 1445 to 1540, NO signals
from LRA36 this Wednesday into Argentine, Brazilian, Uruguayan
remotes, tho the best Argie is still offline. Perhaps will make good
on Friday Oct 7 as RNASG has done before when missing Wed, and/or the
usual Saturday repeat (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5800, Oct 5 at 0630, pulse jamming against nothing, obviously
provoked by additional R. República scheduled 3 nights a week via WRMI
itself at 03-04, even tho impossible now until that transmitter`s
antenna be repaired! I warned that this would lead to more collateral
damage against other programming too on 5800. Until now Cuban jamming
has attacked only 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6100, Oct 5 at 0624, RHC English, S9/+10 but JBM; 6060 also
S9/+10, sufficient modulation but some hum and distortion. No other
frequencies on now. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 5 at 2206. R. Cairo, S9+25 into UTwente with
extremely distorted English. Something`s always abysmal at Abis (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Oct 5 at 0621 UT, no signal here from R.
Kiribati, but Gary Pence, KM5X, reports Oct 5, presumably via Hawai`i
remote or maybe KFS: ``I didn`t check 846 until 0428z and they were on
already. 73, Gary``. And Ron Howard: ``Recently observed while
listening at Asilomar State Beach, Calif.: R. Kiribati (846), anomaly
this week? Not on the air Oct 3 (Monday), when they normally would be
broadcasting; heard Oct 4 as usual; on Wednesday (Oct 5) they were
heard on the air from 0600+ UT, a day that would normally be off the
air.`` So perhaps it go and come on an irregular basis, even within a
single night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 5 at 0631, no signal from VON direct. At 1712
and later, no signal into Canary SDR, except JBA presumed Tibet not
off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Wed Oct 5 at 2209, token English from REE features
interview about Tim Burton`s ``Labyrinth`` opening in Madrid. More
about it here, for one sesquiminute:

https://www.usatoday.com/videos/entertainment/2022/09/29/dare-you-enter-tim-burtons-labyrinth/10459037002/
11940 at S9/+18 is far better than 15520 or 17855 into Maryland SDR,
even tho it`s for S America, as autumnal conditions prevail. Expect in
B-22 will resume 9690 for N America, better than 17855 in our
evenings, worse in mornings and daytime. For such a multi-hour span
they should use at least two bands (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.002, Oct 5 at 2207, VOT English suceeds today, S9+50
into UTwente, undermodulated but sufficient if you turn it up.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Cuts off at 2256.5* after
first extra ID in German during IS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. At 1957 UT Oct 5, Jeff White of WRMI notified me: ``Hi
everyone. I am very happy to say that we got 9955 kHz back on the air
at 1900 UT today. I had expected it to happen tomorrow, but we were
fortunate to have some fast progress today. It will remain on the air
24 hours per day until further notice. We continue to work on the
other frequencies. We have four on the air now: 5950, 9395, 9455 and
9955 kHz -- all of them on 24 hours per day. Jeff``.

9955 confirmed at 2238 Oct 5 amid `Wavescan` about R. Dunedin, NZ,
S9/+10 into Maryland SDR, well atop jamming. See also CUBA above,
jamming added to 5800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5980, Oct 5 at 0626 as I tune downband, leapfrog mixing
product at S8/S9 of TOMBS and University Network, so I know WWCR must
be running both 5890 and 5935, and so they are, both blasting in.

The transmitter sked on website expired Sept 30 but obviously still on
the air; there may have been some seasonal QSY time adjustments.
Program skeds not updated either, still for Sept 1 claiming that
WWCR-4, 5890 operates overnight UT Sat & Sun only, ``OFF AIR`` 05-12
UT M-F, but this is Wednesday! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1550, Oct 5 at 2058 UT and several previous chex, I have
been unable to detect KKLE, Winfield KS, which NRC DX News reported:
``550 KKLE KS Winfield – Silent Aug, 2; back on the air Sept. 20 at
2:30 p.m. Central time.`` It`s U1 250/52 watts, sibling station to
KLEY 1130 Wellington KS, in fact with the same Wellington address, but
news/talk. KLEY has continued active 24h with AC rock format, licensed
as U1 250/1 watt but obviously day power at night. Higher in band
means KKLE weaker here than KLEY but not that much difference on
groundwave at similar distance. If really active, KKLE should also be
250 watts at night? KKLE may be playing games with FCC, like many
stations, firing up briefly to avoid losing license, then off again.
But I don`t recall hearing it before August 2 either (Glenn Hauser,
Enid OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 5 at 0631, weak signal no doubt RV, now without
ACI from either side. Wish they were still switching to 11835 at 0600,
as 0700+ is too late for me to hear their best signal (Glenn Hauser,

also 7435, 7335 and more so 6030, Oct 4 at 0630. Electrical fluid is
scarce, but first things first! At 0632, NO broadcasts on 5025, 5040,

Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13700, Oct 4 at 1447, RHC is back, S9+10 and no spurs; also
11760 S8/S9; 15140 S9 but undermodulated, suptorted; 15230 S9 just
barely modulated; at 1453, 9710, S4/S7 undermodulated. If sites remain
same as in EiBi & Aoki, these account for all three: 9710 Bejucal,
15230 Quivicán, in between, all Bauta (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Oct 4 at 2147, R. Cairo, English extremely
distorted at S9+35 into UTwente. Doubly incredible: that they can`t or
won`t fix it; and yet don`t just leave the transmitter off, which is
doing far more harm than good this way (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Oct 4 at 0634, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati.
Nothing else on 9/kHz splits, any lingering TAs propped out. Gary
Pence, KM5X, reports: ``Hi Glenn, I checked 846 at 0445z, not on yet;
checked again 0525z, it`s on now. At NH6XO`` [Hawai`i remote] (Glenn

1735, no signal into Spain SDR, just JBA on-frequency carrier from
Tibet. 1819 not even that, nothing at all except storm noise over
northern Algeria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Oct 4 at 1445, PN, 25-watt ND beacon at
PoNca City, reactivated, as my loudest near-local signal, moreso even
than 341 EI, EnId. PN was first noted OFF as of August 23. It`s had
similar outages before, always coming back, so far (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Oct 4 at 2030, REE manages to modulate the ME
transmitter for the fourth day in a row, stupid ballgame provoking
irrational enthusiasm (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 4 at 2201, still no signal into UTwente other
than JBA China. Cuts on at *2208, JIP news, with horrible squeal,
autonotch not helping much, but bandwidth too narrow at 2.61 kHz
escapes it, but not also some hum. I shall not listen any further.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE. `Ukraine: Security Issue` notes from web if not via WRMI:

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_30_09_22.mp3
For 30 Sept, including: shelling casualties in Zap region convoy at
checkpoint. 52 buses burned down. R hit city with tornado? systems.
Intel director estimates very hi possibility of R using tactical nuxe
along frontline. U needs more defensive weapons. Hi levels of
intimidation from R next few weeks should speed up delivery of
weapons to U. And blowing up pipeline, blackmailing Eu to raise
stakes. Min of Defense on U giving nuxe to R years ago. Brit official
visited U secretly. U encircling R troops near Lyman. R spent $ 100K on
anti-U propaganda, more than 50 fake websites. Mark Hamill of Star
Wars became ambassador to raise funds.

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_01_10_22.mp3
For 1 October, including: civilian convoy of cars in Kharkiv region,
20 people killed. Humanitarian convoy in Zap. region also hit, 30
killed. U submitted application for accelerated accession to NATO,
signed by Pres Z. Peace restored only by expelling occupiers. U leads
in negotiation efforts. Impossible with this R pres, need another one.
Joining NATO might not take place till after war. Hope application
help speed up arms delivery. As soon as R loses, all hesitant
countries will be first to vote for U to join NATO. Approx. 5500 R
servicemen surrounded somewhere. Pres P will not gain anything,
according to American experts, by nuclear attack. Would be his last
argument, fatal for aggressor. U would have right to attack across all
of Russia if nuxe used. P wants to freeze U in winter by cutting off
gas. Occupiers detained head of Zap NPP, took him somewhere, fate
unknown. RusAtom should release the director-general immediately. Pres
Z included among favorites for Nobel Peace Prize, among bookies.
Another is David Attenborough, TBA Oct 7 in Oslo. Art collexions to
foreign museums.

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_02_10_22.mp3
For 2 October, including: City of Lyman liberated. P`s troops
retreating. 9 C&E European countries back U sovereignty, U and Georgia
should become members of NATO eventually. Appeal to join already
processed. Call on NATO for active deterrence of R. U conducting
negotiations on join NATO since May after Sweden and Finland, to
forestall a future R retry. Safety zone around Zap NPP discussed. R
told IAEA that Dir-Gen of Zap NPP temporarily detained. Was kidnapped
for refusing to follow orders. In Kherson region, R abducted married
couple Sept 25, whereabouts unknown, for refusing to vote in pseudo
referendum. 412 U kids died from invasion, more than 784 injured,
figures are not final and keep growing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UT when nothing but BS or SMTV, variety programming 22-03.

From FB circa 19 UT Oct 4: ``It's been very slow-going in the antenna
field today. Trucks are getting stuck in the mud, and we have to buy
special tires to get them back into the field. We will probably not
have any more frequencies back on the air today (Tuesday), but
hopefully by tomorrow. 5950 and 9395 are still on 24 hours, and our
Internet stream as well. Several of the programs on WRMI have done
interviews with us about the situation, and we appreciate them helping

serious illness and then death, of Chief Editor Michael Kittner.
2016: From December, Hamburger Lokalradio added Sunday 1130 on

** U S A. 5950, Oct 3 at 1448, JBA carrier from presumed WRMI,
inadequate in the daytime but glad to have something back on. On FB
circa 14 UT Oct 3:

``Restoration efforts continue today at WRMI. Engineers were trying to
fix the transmission lines for transmitter 5 (9455 kHz) this morning,
but the ground is very wet, muddy and swampy, and two trucks have
become stuck in the swamp. So they are going to try to get the
transmission lines fixed for transmitter 6 (9395 kHz) next. So far we
still have only 5950 kHz on the air, and it's on 24 hours per day. Our
Internet stream with the 9955 kHz programming is also operational
(www.wrmi.net).

These photos will give you an idea what we are dealing with as many of
these poles that carry the transmission lines out to the antennas are
seriously leaning or down altogether. They have to be put back up and
reinforced so that the transmission lines are off the ground
again.``

Direct from Jeff White at 2046 UT Oct 3: ``9395 kHz Back on the Air

Dear Friends and Clients: We got another frequency back on the air
today. At 1945 UT we were able to put Transmitter 6 (9395 kHz) back on
the air. The process of repairing the transmission lines in the
antenna field is going rather slowly due to the extreme muddy and
swampy environment. But our crew continues to work in these conditions
to get everything back on the air. We hope to get 9455 kHz back on
tomorrow if all goes well, and then we'll work on others. We'll keep
you advised. Jeff

likely site than Tashkent or Taiwan for VOMK at 1500-1530: Roger
Thayer in Germany says about TDOA triangulation experiments:

``Some very bizarre hits, as expected. From the averaged pattern,
however, more so from the area around Indonesia, towards the end of
the show the hits were moving towards northern Australia [animated]
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qd3bdlwfb17da5u/2022-10-02_11620_kHz_TDoA.gif?dl=0
Anyway, it doesn't seem to be Tashkent or Taiwan. roger`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 2 at 0620, no signal from VON direct. Nor at
1704, 1743 into Canary SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE. `Ukraine: Security Issue`. As of Oct 2, none more recent
than Sept 28 and 29 on website:
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/ua_security_issue

For Sept 28:
http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_28_09_22.mp3
including: R about to consider annexation Oct 4 after sham referedum.
US and most other countries will not recognize. Foreign Ministry says
this demonstrates that R not ready for negotiations. Each citizen in
farce will be punished as criminals. Emergency guide for what to do if
nuclear weapons used. Dirty bombs will grow exponentially around
world. R still controls Zap. NPP. World must sanxion R`s nuclear
company RusAtom, hostage to Kreml. Only 6000 of 11000 Zap. NPP
personnel still there. Gas leak on pipeline a premeditated act by R
against EU. U charges 5 R soldiers who shot at civilians in 10 cars.
Pres Z posted video of liberated village. Invaders met with singing of
national anthem thru windows thrown open.

For Sept 29:
http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_29_09_22.mp3
including: R missile strike killed more children and family,
civilians. Hospital, apartment buildings, private houses damaged. R
captured U soldiers, held in abominable, unbearable, conditions.
Greeted by soldiiers clubbing them. Had too sleep on cold concrete
floors. Document to recognize R as terrorism state. Pres Z speaks to
Harvard students. Why is R firing tanx at NPP. Nuclear blackmail,
civilized world will not give in. P might as well do same to Poland,
Europe. Satellite in operation for defense, paid for by U. Owns one
and uses services of almost two dozen more. Two U ministers make TIME
100 list of most influential (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2158 monitoring: WRMI has slightly
updated sked grid marked Oct 1. Shows a new airing for WOR, UT Monday
at 0030 from System L on 5950 - which happens to be only frequency
back on air so far, to run 24 hours. Same time WOR has been sked on
7780 not yet re-available. Still shows imaginary time canceled months
ago, Sat 1930 on 15770.

5950 chex: Oct 2 at 1413, no signal direct: ought to be at least a JBA
carrier over day path. At 1506, Georgia SDR is getting S8/S9 of dead
air carrier, music added by 1517. 1530 a `Mighty Fortress` church
broadcast starts as connexion breaks. Big change: R Africa Network at
15-21 on silent 21525 is now also on 5950 - not that that has any
chance of reaching Africa over daypath. 1559 YL ID claims to be on
21525 - what does she know? 1600 `The Bible Answers`.

So remaining nominal WOR SW+ sked:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW; NEW 5950 to NNW
0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 2 at 0620, RV is JBA S8/S9, second day
reactivated. Unawake for 0659/0700 QSY to 3945 and harmonix 7890,
11835, but Ron Howard, Gary Pence and Manuel Méndez reconfirm those.
Marshall Reel heard 11835 until s/off after 1100 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic JBA MW carrier search Oct 2 at 0626; only
774 and 909, likely Spain and UK; and NO 846, Kiritimati silent Sunday
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1953 UT October 2

** BOLIVIA. 5952.469+, Oct 2 at 0100, has to be Radio Pio Doce on its
signature split, S9/S8 carrier but can`t make out any modulation.
First noted as big het upon 5950 WRMI, both via UTwente. Meshes with
this on the WOR iog a few hours before: ``Lucio Otavio Bobrowiec - Hi
all, On 5952 since 2158, that het which must be R. Pio XII but nothing
audible until 2248, 01/10. Was some weeks silent. 73 Lucio
Brazil`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15600, Oct 1 at 2219, music and talk eventually recognized
as Spanish: CRI to S America direct from Beijing site, 500 kW at 318
degrees, i.e. heading NW across Siberia, Europe, Atlantic, a long way,
but both short and long paths are extensive. SE over the Pacific would
avoid auroral zone absorption. Antipodes of Beijing is near Bahía
Blanca, Argentina. Rapid RTTY on the plus side, evitable by LSB tuning
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. Too much! Oct 2 at 0131+ I find four pirates at once
on The band: 6923 USB, 6930 USB, 6955 USB and 6960 USB. I stay on the
first one for a while:

6923 USB, Oct 2 at 0131, pirate song S4/5/7 on peaks, also 0136. 0150
``Addams Family``, seems to be Hallowe`en theme. Gives us a break,
until the end of Oct? 0156 ``They`re Coming to Take Me Away``. These
suggest it`s Sycko Radio without any explicit ID copied:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102600.0.html

6930 USB, Oct 2 at 0132, pirate music at S4/S6. Per these, WWWW:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102599.0.html

6955 USB, Oct 2 at 0133, rock music, -something- Radio ID, S3/S6. Too
many of these are too `produced` rather than pronounced clearly with
no background/mixing, etc. Three pages say Radio Free Whatever:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102588.0.html

6960 USB, Oct 2 at 0135, rock, S4/S6. These say Lucky 13 Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102597.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 1 at 2035 UT, SW, ND beacon at
StillWater. Last time heard was June 8 in daily chex, day and/or
night. Has had protracted absences before. No telling whether back to
stay now for a while. Classaxe says 50 watts, dxinfocentre says 25.
It`s JBA, much weaker than used to be, so maybe even less now (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Oct 1 at 2038, Enid CB pirate again relaying
95.7 KXLS, very strong but now with big het from a spoiler carrier
equally strong on 27185.8. Pick one or the other by LSB/USB tuning.
Note: a number of other random times checked, this has not been on
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Oct 1 at 2048, after 6 days of dead air, REE finally
manages to modulate, just in time for a stupid ballgame; // stronger
17855 direct, Something`s no longer nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SWITZERLAND. 18142 USB, Oct 1 at 2045, HB9TWY contact with a VA3.
At first I thought he said HP9TWY as in Panamá, accent not Spanish,
but we know a lot of expats are radicated there; then mentions local
time at UT+2. QRZ.com with a few landscape, antenna photos:

HB9TWY Switzerland flag Switzerland
``Yannick (YAN) Matthey

QSL: No qsl`` -- imagine that! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.003, Oct 1 at 2216, VOT English, S9+15 direct but very
undermodulated. 2235 S9+5/15 also into UTwente, undermodulated. Stays
on with 2300 timesignal and opening German, and still on at end of
German 2351 with song, now S9+55, when max volume on SDR plus locally
are not too much to overload. Chopped off air at 2352.8* depriving us
of another extra hour in Brazilian, shux. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15730, Sat Oct 1 at 2049, VOA Grimesland in Hausa, S9+20;
also on 15185 with English lesson, S9+35. I wondered whether remnants
of Ian would blow any VOA or OCB off, but did not get them checked
during max winds there. Obviously OK now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2158 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
October 1 at 1929, right on time, at WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO,
S9+15 into nearby Warrenton KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday October 2 at 0322 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM again,
S9+18 same but noisy, about 11 minutes into so started circa 0311.

Note that the next chance when WRMI hopes to be back on air would not
be until UT Tuesday 0030 on 9395. Otherwise, scheduled, next:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW
0300vUT Monday WBCQ Area 51 6160v to WSW

** U S A. The latest from Jeff White: Sent: Saturday, October 1, 2022,
10:25:14 PM GMT+1

Friends, Colleagues and Clients: Our frequency of 5950 kHz has just
come back on the air at 2100 UT Saturday. We will keep this frequency
on the air 24 hours per day until we get more transmitters on the air.
It has been a slow process of repairing the transmission lines in the
muddy swampland. We do not expect to have any other frequencies on the
air until Monday. Probably the first ones to go back on the air Monday
will be 9395 and 9455 kHz if all goes well. Then we will gradually
bring all of the others back as the transmission lines are repaired.
Our Internet stream has continued to operate during and after the
storm, mostly with 9955 kHz programming. Thanks for your patience and
understanding, and we will keep you updated.

** U S A. 5950, Oct 2 at 0100, Texas R Shortwave on the only WRMI
frequency restarted yet. I`m trying it on the UTwente SDR where it`s
amazingly strong, S9/+10, for an azimuth of 355, about 50 degrees away
from head-on to Europe. Wonder if askew or really on same antenna as
before the storm. Also with het from 5952+ which has to be BOLIVIA,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.93, Oct 2 at 0033, WBCQ with rock music show, `Cruisin`
the Decades`, S9/+10 into Georgia SDR. NOT on the website program
schedule, rather `AAAWWW`, which I was going to check shortly for the
part I missed last night as Allan was calling out to me. Par for the
course with never-up-to-date sked. If it can be believed, next chance
for `AAAWWW` should be Monday after 2200. This `Cruisin`` is nowhere
on the quadrifrequency sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
