** CUBA. 5025, Jan 8 at 0724, R. Rebelde off again; something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, Jan 8 at 0435 UT, low-power in central Enid is
undermodulating again, Xmasmx; while I am checking for Es FM DX as on
maps, but skipping over/beyond me (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2328 monitoring: confirmed UT
Thursday January 8 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+25/40 into Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Thursday January 8 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, after
tune-in at 0125 during previous program, atop some musiQRM into
Georgia and Maryland SDRs, but in the clear altho noisy direct
S9+20/25. Normally no QRM; could be third harmonic of something on
1670, unlikely reactivation of Honduran altho still in Aoki, and
certainly not long-gone Madagascar on 5010. Or overload into SDR but
unlikely the same at two widely separated. Or possibly the previous
program had music background.

Also confirmed Thursday January 8 at 1730 on SW Radio Gold, Germany,
JBA S7 with ACI on 6160.005 into UTwente; and S9 clear on 3975.001

** U S A. 5890, Jan 8 at 0726, WWCR-4 unexpectedly on air at this hour
with strange rappish singing, S9+20/30, and 0730 opening `The Reality
Hour` with a gospel huxter. Also producing leapfrog mixing product
another 45 kHz beyond 5935 WWCR-2, JBA on 5980. WWCR-4 program sked
dated Jan 1 still claims 5890 on air *only* at 03-05 UT Tue-Sat. `The
Reality Hour` appears nowhere on WWCR program skeds.

However, `The Apostle White Reality Hour` is or was on WWCR`s AM
station, WNQM, also their WITA in Knoxville. WNQM does not provide a
program schedule but a list of shows
https://www.1300wnqm.com/pgm-links_wnqm.html
including this one on weekends with Ezzie White, but this link does
not work:
http://web.me.com/realityhour/Site/About_Me.html
But this one does, found originally in broad search, not via
WWCR/WNQM:
https://theapostlewhiterealityhour.libsyn.com/
It`s a large archive of podcasts starting with recent ones. And says
also on WNQM at different time. So, will this expanded use of 5890
continue, and how much? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VATICAN. 15595, Jan 8 at 0738, VR in French is S9 direct from SMG,
the SSOB by far, nothing else from Europe, despite targeting ME in the
opposite direxion. 15595 per EiBI is on air Mon-Sat 0700-0745 in a
mixture of Italian, Arabic, English and French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. Re RAE via WRMI 9455, Jan 6 at 2310, ``Telam
agency has reached an agreement to supply news to R. Nacional network
stations`` -- Bill Tilford replies:

``You mean the agency formerly known as Telam? Milei's government
closed the original in 2024 and retrofitted it as APE (Agencia de
Publicidad del Estado, or State Advertising Agency). It might not be
fair to compare it to OANN in the US, but it won't ever say anything
naughty about Milei either. --Uncle Bill``

I did not hear APE mentioned. Suspect this was playback of a very old
outdated `Atividade DX` as also evident from monitoring a few weeks
ago with DX `news` about stations no longer on air. Another reply,
from Richard Stoller, PA:

``In Milei's defense, Telam was always in the pocket of the "gobierno
de turno" or whoever was in power, so the new version is at least more
honest -- it's a government press office`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 7300, Jan 7 at 1553, Chinese with tinkly music background,
S7/S8 and the SSOB except for 7490 WWCR. Aoki & EiBi show at 15-16
only, CNR1 jamming vs R. Taiwan International (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 1100.28, Jan 7 at 0710, JBA het against WTAM 1100.00 et
al., presumably again HJAT Barranquilla off-frequency (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 5140 USB, Jan 7 at 1500, the Emergency Operations Net on
alternate? Wednesdays resumes after holiday break. YL NCS counts up
and down 12345, 54321, then roll call. Her signal is JBA in S8/9 noise
level and I can`t copy accurately all the callsigns even tho spoken
fonetikaly. Some called were in Beckham County, Pontotoc County.
Several do not reply. Best signal comes from Bill, WSPV700 in Durant.
NCS seemed to be WNBE830. Someone referred to the NCS as Brianna
[sp?]. She closes the net at 1509, but then a call from WPFY721? See
my previous logs on Oct 1, Dec 3, 10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, Jan 7 circa 2020, the lowpower FM transmitter in
downtown Enid is still on air, and not dead right now, playing pop
music, not Xmasmx; mono sound despite $ tereo pilot. The weaker one on
93.1 remains deadair (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Jan 7 at 2257, NO signal from REE into Georgia
SDR, just in time to miss weekly token English at 2300 which was
missing Dec 24 & 31 due to holiday celebrations! 17715 for SAm is JBA
altho in warmer months could be sufficient. That leaves 12030 for ME
off the back as our best choice, but it`s insufficient at S7/S9. Could
at least make out opening indeed in English; oh well (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.002, Wed Jan 7 at 2259, VOT IS & ID, 2300
opening English not off the air, S9+25 into UTwente. And S9+15/30 at
2323 into Georgia SDR, as `Letterbox` is now being repeated from
Sunday, but once again tuned in too late, missing first few minutes.
Ends at 2330. Recheck at 2355, already in IS but mixing with ChiCom
music at almost equal level, unusual, making SAH of about 5 Hz. 2356
restart IS with German IDs and still on at 2400 mixing timesignals,
opening German mixing with ChiCom anthem, and still German past 2406.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2328 monitoring: confirmed
Wednesday January 7 at 2058 the 2030 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 3975,
S7/9+10 into recommended Bedford UK SDR, inaudible at UTwente.

Also confirmed Wednesday January 7 at 2207 the 2200 on WBCQ 7490 -35
Hz = 7489.965, calibration accurate vs WWV 10000.000, S9/+10 into
Maryland SDR. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160.

** U S A. 1130 kHz, Jan 7 at 0709 UT, open carrier atop, presumably
KLEY Wellington KS, starting to comeback with hefty 250-watt day power
at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Re 870.56, the het against WWL I logged Jan 6 at 0750,
some coincidental reports; I did not hear the `tone` on the minus side
as well, but on IRCA list:

``870 tone --- CHRISTOPHER DUNNE Jan 6 #51455 --- 870 — must be Cuba,
the former wobbler? Heavy tone, and at my QTH it seems to be
overtaking WWL.`` Reply:

``Mike Westfall Jan 6 #51466 --- Yes, strange tone on 870 last night
(around 0300 when I checked). Sidebands measured at approx 869.459 and
870.547`` {EST? If so that`s 0800 UT -- gh} Mike Westfall, N6KUY "Mesa

UNIDENTIFIED. 15848-15902 approx., Jan 7 at 1548, multi-carrier,
multi-tones beating against each other, peaking S7 amid. What is this?
Same thing often around 17450, not relogged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
