** BRAZIL. 9664.943, Sept 27 at 0658, RVM, S6/S9 of music with always
good modulation but frequency slipping a bit again from 9665.000
nominalness (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 27 at 0654, RHC in English! Rather than Radio
Rebelde. All real RHC frequencies are off: 5040, 6000, 6060, 6100,
6165. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9965 & 9955, Sept 27 at 0701, pulse jamming against nothing
despite imminent hurricane hitting western Cuba. Quite different pulse
rates: faster on 9965, slower on 9955. WRMI is currently silent
overnight, but when on it would be deceased Brother HyStairical, never
exile programming nor anything in Spanish. 9965? That was a Radio
República via Costa Rica, gone for a decade or more. 9965 used by
Palau now but not before 0807/1250 and mostly weekends only, altho
`HBN` registered HFCC available 24/7/365! Something`s always
incredible at the incompetent DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11760 & 15140, Sept 27 at 1526, NO signals direct
from the usual RHCs for midday, no doubt blown off by Hurricane Ian;
and still nil into Maryland SDR at 1840.

How about jammers around 1530? Cannot detect any on current Martí
frequencies, 11860, 11930, 13605. The 11s are not very strong anyway
and 11860 has fast SAH, presumably QRyeMen; 13605 so strong cannot be
certain no J now. One would expect some SW jamming to continue from
sites further east in The Greatest Antille, but winds aside, they
already have electricity supply problems. RM helpfully covers weather
warnings for Cuba. But at 1845, definite jamming on all three, 13605
worst, as heard by Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11950, Sept 27 at 2305, the *only* RHC or Rebelde SW
frequency on air, quick check of all possible fundamentals 5.025 to
15.73 MHz into Maryland SDR. EiBi shows 11950 site Bauta, but so are
most of those missing. With hurricane info (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.994, Sept 27 at 2141, R. Cairo manages to be on air
today, S7/9+10 into Maryland SDR, but humwhine only, no programod. By
2159 some supressed music, 2200 timesignal 4+1 really cuts thru, news
theme, a grand march, but unreadable. Something`s always egregious at
Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Sept 27 at 0702, cannot detect a JBA carrier
from R. Kiribati, local noise level is higher than usual. But Ron
Howard heard and recorded it at 0658 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 27 at 0652, VON is off. No signal
either at 1642 into Canary/Fuerteventura SDR. But at 1727 recheck VON
is on, concluding some listener contact show in English, minus 67 Hz =
7254.933, and dumps off air at 1729*, no longer impeding Tibet close
to 7255.000 nor huge splash from S9+10/20 7265 CRI Russian via Urumqi,
EAST TURKISTAN, std denunciation, 1730 clip-clops and historical
dramatization again; and during brief pause, English audible under,
which is BBC via MADAGASCAR, I daresay a horrible collision around
Africa. VON still off at 1827 check.

The studio staff at VON must be very demoralized, what sounds like
very well-produced programming being mistreated this way; OR, like so
many SW services, clueless about what happen to their product on the
way out to the world (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Tuesday Sept 27 at 1457, still 1520, S5/S7 of dead
air direct from REE for the third? day in a row, no one noticing at
Noblejas? Geez. Still DA at 1832 check into Maryland SDR.

15520, Sept 27 at 1643, absolutely dead air at S9/+12 into Canary
SDR.

11670 is only other frequency on this early, 1644 in Arabic this
semihour M-F, with squeal, S8/9+12. To be followed by Russian
1700-1730 M-F despite azimuth 161 across Africa! No antenna toward
Russia. Each 200 kW frequency is stuck on a single angle, no matter
what the language or presumed `target`. Something`s always nonsensical
at Noblejas, messed up in Madrid. Wait a minute! 1700 into Brazilian
Portuguese, about Venezuelan migration, not in Russian. Would RR have
been on 15520 if modulated?

The language lineups in Aoki are not identical: 15520 with Spanish M-F
1500-1730; 11670 breaking away to Arabic & Russian M-F 1630-1730; and
never Portuguese on either.

How about EiBi? 11670 at 1630-1730 M-F in Arabic, Portuguese, no
Russian. 15520 differs: 1630-1700 M-F Arabic, but 1700-1730 depends on
DOW: M/W/F Russian, Tue Sephardic, Thu/Sat/Sun Spanish; no Portuguese
ever. This resembles WRTH 2022 sked for B-21 with 12030 & 11685
instead, and everything one real UT hour later since REE caves in to
stupid DST during A-season, inapplicable in many targets, but more
convenient in studio keeping times the ``same``.

But by 1715, 15520 still dead air, of course! and 11670 with that
annoying squeal. It`s equally bad on LSB and USB tuning, so part of
the DSB modulation. AMNarrow is not enough to escape it either. 15520
still DA, S3/S8 direct at 2021 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.0027, Sept 27 at 2200, VOT opening English, VG today
S9/+30 into Maryland SDR, top news story: Tuerkiyeish Language Day
lauded by pres, Sweden should be rid of PKK, all the way until 2216
Review of Tuerkiyeish Press; 2219 Weekly Commentary to 2229 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2157 monitoring: confirmed UT

undermodulated.

Also confirmed Tuesday September 27 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, S9/+12 into
Maryland SDR, no jamming audible, wonder why? And still not at 2258
closing, but when Radio Libertad starts at 2300 with hurrican news,
there`s the jamming starting to build, but way under for Marylanders.

** U S A. Sept 27 at 1830, all scheduled frequencies of WRMI are still
on the air into Maryland SDR: 21525, 15770, 9955, 9455, 9395, 7730;
mostly with Brother Scare, who assures us there were no dinosaurs, let
alone anything 10 megayears ago.

21525, Sept 27 at 2016, this WRMI, `Radio Africa` hits S9+10 during
`Healing Word` program; normal JBA carrier getting sporadic E boost.

Hurricane Ian plans to landfall Florida at Venice, then up the length
of the state, so WRMI won`t get a direct hit but high circumwinds may
well cause voluntary or involuntary absences, as may power outages.
Keep an ear on WRMI frequencies.

In a lengthy thread on the WOR iogroup about SW station expenses, Ken
Zichi suggests that WRMI might install lots of solar panels, and/or
wind power on all that farm/ranch property it occupies. However, I
think it`s not owned outright; hydro power not an option in flat Fla,
unlike it was for HCJB, and tsunamis, storm surges cannot be depended
upon, nor hurricane force winds. Now Jeff White just replied:

``Well, it’s a nice idea. Certainly electricity is our largest
expense. It would be nice if we could use solar power. But we have had
a number of companies visiting us over the years proposing such a
thing, and when they find out how much electricity we use, they
realize it’s useless. You would have to cover the whole square mile
with solar panels, and I don’t know if that would even be enough.

And we don’t own the property. We lease it, and our lease only permits
us to use a certain amount of area for the antennas. The rest of it is
for the owner’s cows to graze.

Like I said, it’s a great idea in theory. But there’s just no
substitute for electricity at this point. We could do like many if not
most other stations are already doing or planning — reduce power.
Most listeners wouldn’t even notice it. At the HFCC in Bulgaria in
August, everybody was talking about it. It would be a better
alternative than reducing the number of hours of transmissions. One
station in the US has just had to do this, and it’s a real shame.

** U S A. 9940, Sept 27 at 0700, Scriptures for America ID on WTWW, -1
or -2? This late at night, MUF has diminished normally blasting signal
to weakish only S5/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330v, Sept 27 at 1454, 1501 and still 1639, 1834, NO signal
from WLCR/WBCQ SuperStition. Back on by 2140 check (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, 7932, 8620, Sept 27 at 0651, RV still absent from
previous harmonic spots. Also no 11835 or 11898 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 2328 UT September 27

** CUBA [and non]. CNN from 0000 UT Monday Sept 26, a 1-hour special
on Havana Syndrome - to repeat at 0300; and UT Oct 1 at 0100:

``"Immaculate Concussion: The Truth Behind Havana Syndrome"
New, 9/25/2022, News, Topical, Current Events
Dr. Sanjay Gupta investigates the so-called 'Havana Syndrome', a
confounding medical mystery beginning with embassy staff in Cuba
before spiraling into one of the most hotly debated and poorly
understood brain conditions of the age.``

Cuban officials strongly deny they have or allow on their territory
any such microwave RF weapon. Other explanations are explored, but
still nothing conclusive (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 26 at 2151 and later, NO English signal from
R. Cairo into UTwente, just that heavy clicking. Something`s always
egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Sept 26 at 0637, JBA carrier surely
from R. Kiribati; and a stronger one on 855, probably Spain
oppositely.

Discussion about this from Chris Rogers, Australia:
``Hi Glenn, I have recently seen mention of attempts to hear Radio
Kiribati on 846 kHz. I have just returned from a Cook Islands
DXpedition where I had reception of Radio Kiribati on 1440 kHz at
excellent levels. There was no sign of anything from them on 846. An
email to station was simply answered with, “We are no longer on 846
Khz, we are only on 1440 Khz” with no other explanation given. Best
regards, Chris Rogers, Melbourne, Australia``

``Chris, That`s interesting. But the 1440 station at HQ is thousands
of miles away in W Kiribati from 846 in E Kiribati, also two timezones
apart. Finally found names that distancefromto can work with: 3290 km
= 2044 statute miles = 1776 nautical miles.

All circumstantial evidence points to the London station still on air.
Maybe at Tarawa they don`t know what`s really going on at Kiritimati?
Or same transmitter acquired by another station? Glenn``

``Hi Glenn, I have found that information is always hard to get from
these Pacific stations. However, that is what I heard back from them,
and no sign of 846 from my monitoring. I suspect that if 846 kHz
London is off, they are using the Ronton 93.5 txer instead?

Incidentally, Radio Cook Islands dismantled their mast on the Matavera
site a few years ago due to corrosion, then went to the AM standby
transmitter site at Black Rock after that. Despite what the WRTVH site
says, they are no longer on MW, only on FM now. Best regards, Chris``

If the 846 signal as early as 0430 audible to the north and east be
not Xmas Island, whence could it be? Not many SDRs in the Pacific but
maybe someone could get a TDOA fix on it? Believe I have DFed it from
one angle appropriately but may try again. Beyond in the Pacific are
only 4 others much farther: 2 kW in NZ; 10 kW in Canberra, 5 kW in
Cairns; 2.5 kW in Carnarvon WA, per WRTH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Sept 26 at 1509, V of Martyrs Korea,
Maldives service, English not Dhivehi about Adam, Eve, and Jesus,
usual amazing signal here on the other worldside, S9/+20. Possible
Uzbekistan site was once proposed and still referred to, but does not
fit: other Tashkent relays are nowhere near as strong here, and this
one is not off-frequency either. Other guess is TAIWAN, but no fit
either unless erroneously aimed thisaway. Kununurra, Australia makes
more sense to me propagationally, as path is trans-equatorial, and is
also used by VOM,K for other emissions, but would also be way offbeam
to here. VOM,K refuses to divulge site. Still missing from HFCC unlike
their simulBurmese on 11825 from KNX (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 26 at 0613, VON is on, S9+10/20 but just
barely modulated. Something`s always abnormal at Abuja. 7255, Sept 26
at 1753-1816+, NO VON signal into Canary SDR, just JBA TIBET almost
on-frequency thru 1800 timesignal. Alternatives? 11770 with Chinese
only, 9690 nothing except ACI splash (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 97.5, Sept 26 at 2124 UT on caradio, check which Okie is
in at the moment, often a toss-up. Not KMOD Tulsa but ``Werewolf
97-5``, pronounced Warewolf or Wearwolf. I first reported this fuzzy
name almost two sesquimonths ago on July 2, as in
https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2022_0630_0705.txt

Now I`m wondering if it`s an unique slogan, so search the WTFDA FM
Database on Werewolf -- to find: Nothing, not even this Alva station.
Turns out its listing which I quoted in my old report as off the air
with ex-format, is *still* there in this otherwise excellent
reference. They must not be reading my reports, posted to the WTFDA
gg, which include significant updating info!

Here`s a clue from FCC FM Query:
``KZLF (KPAK) OK ALVA USA FM LIC Licensee: RUNNING WOLF RADIO LLC``
Not sure why the ex-call is atop parenthetically.

Radio-locator is current:
``KZLF-FM 97.5 MHz Alva, Oklahoma "Werewolf 97.5 FM"
Station Format: Adult Contemporary
Website: https://werewolf975.com/

Homepage shows: five personnel as werewolves, including weatherhybrid
of KFOR. I also heard him with a weatherbit at 2132. Rare is the radio
station in a small, or even large town with at least one staff
meteorologist, so TV stations can make a lot of money on the side
feeding radio stations (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Sept 26 at 1505, open carrier/dead air again,
S9+10/20 direct, got to be REE ME beam off the back, like Sept 25, and
on weekdays supposed to program from 1500. WHem frequencies 17855 &
11940 don`t start until 1755 M-F, so nothing to compare; while the
other EHem from 1500-, 11670 for Africa is JBA carrier.

15520 rechecked Sept 26 at 2227 at end of English, *still* dead air
but only S2 into Maryland. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 9830, Sept 26 at 2200-2230+, NO signal from VOT
English, just a JBA from China into UTwente. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [and non]. Two replies [only] to whether I should continue
copying items from `Ukraine: Security Issue` as broadcast on UR1 via
WRMI 7730 circa 0500 UT, but heard later from website:

``I, for one, Glenn, greatly value your Ukrainian radio daily
summaries, especially as many of us don’t always have the opportunity
to listen daily. Please continue! Walt Salmaniw``

``Glenn, Please also count me as a reader/listener of your Ukraine
monitoring activity. While I value all of your monitoring work, the
'Ukraine project' is especially important. Many thanks! Best wishes,
Martin Potter, VE3OAT``

``Especially in view of Putler’s threat to use nuclear weapons!
Walt``

OK, so here spent more than a sesquihour catching up on past week.

use by R of tactical nukes would be the end for Russian Fed, civilized
world answer would be instantaneous. KGB guy has been destroying R for
22 years since they chose him. U calls for R forces to surrender and
save their lives. Safety and decent conditions guaranteed. Rs trying
to flee, mile long queue of vehicles on border with Georgia, also
Finland, but some EU countries will not provide asylum to draft
dodgers [not a term they used].

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_23_09_22.mp3

enough; Esp`o continues on 11760 and much weaker 15140, sign on claims
to be at 0800 on 6100, altho I had just heard it at 07 on 11670! and
at 16 on 11760 - only, they never realise the addition of 15140; and
2330 or 2230? on 15730, where we haven`t heard RHC at all, lately, but
maybe, need to check. The Esperantists are clueless about times and
frequencies they are really on! Turn on a radio? I also catch them
mispronouncing words, like ``polítiko`` instead of ``politíko`` -
accents added by me for clarity, unable to break from Spanish habit to
Esperanto, where penultimate stress is absolutely invariable.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Sept 24 at 2212, R. Cairo is on and poor S5/S6 direct,
and seems like may have decent English modulation, but I don`t get to
a remote in time to check it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846, Sept 25 circa 0655, no signal from R. Kiribati,
where it`s already Sunday night, also missing last two or three weeks,
at least. Tonight, Gary Pence found it also absent earlier after ~0430
sunset into Hawaii SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. Sporadic E MUF not caught exceeding 88 MHz since July, and
not much activity even above 28 MHz, but a couple Mexican beacons make
it on September 24, looked up at this reference:
https://www.qsl.net/wj5o/bcn.htm
which is still dated 2016 and don`t see any later years on entries,
but apparently the only `current` page.

28183.2 CW, Sept 24 at 2217, dash and VVV XE1RCS/B EK09:

``The Radio Club Satelite is one of the most active and well known
radio clubs in Mexico since 1979. It got its name from Ciudad
Satelite, a suburb north of Mexico City where it all started.

XE1RCS beacons on 28.182 and 50.019 MHz now transmiting from new site,
Cerro Gordo about 70 km northeast from Mexico City. This new site,
Cerro Gordo is about 3100 m above sea level, near Teotihuacan
pyramids. The site is owned by Radio Club Satelite.

XE1RCS/B on 28.182 Mhz. has an AR-10 antenna with 8 watts, and on
50.019 has an AR-6 with 50 watts. All the antennas are mounted in a 40
m tower with surge protection and battery backup.

Also we added a new experimental beacon that is on 144.295 MHz with 5
watts into a F-23 antenna, transmiting CW and FM with ID alternately.
Please make your reports. http://www.xe1rcs.org.mx/beacons
73 de XE1RCS``

28171, Sept 24 at 2225, XE1RCS/B is no longer the only beacon on band:
3 short dashes, XE1FAS/ B EK09VB with a stronger signal, but strange
keying, irregular spaces between the characters, especially long space
before B. Not hand-keyed but recorded with same errors repeating. Here
it is:

``28.171 XE1FAS C PUEBLA, MEXICO # 5W, VERTICAL NEW 30 Sept 10``

``XE1FAS Mexico flag Mexico
SEGURA WALLS ALEJANDRO
31 PONIENTE 2926 COL. EL VERGEL

Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 17530.083, Sun Sept 25 at 1453, unknown
language, music, S2/S3. EiBi shows it`s VOA Pinheira, 1400-1500 Sat &
Sun only, in KNK = Kinyarwanda/Kirundi. At first thought it would be
Madagascar, which is also off-frequency with BBC after 0600, like
17530.024 on Sept 15, so STP is the winner for offfrequenciness (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Sept 25 at 1506, S4/S8 of dead air, got to be REE as
scheduled to ME, off the back here, while 17855 off the front to NAm,
is modulating at S7/S9. 11940 to SAm, JBA carrier. Something`s always
nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 24 at 2213, VOT English at S6/S8 direct but just
barely modulated again. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [and non]. I`m behind on monitoring Ukraine: Security
Issue, and feel it responsible to report on it, but I wonder if anyone
else thinx it`s worth my trouble? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2157 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday September 25 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 and noisy into
Maryland SDR; preceded at 0029 by Jeff`s commercial for Etón SW
radios, starting with ``Right now the world is in turmoil...`` so
that`s what I have been hearing cut off at other times. This time
followed by Allen Graham from Ecuador ID, and intrusion of a few
marimba notes followed by noise over the first 10 seconds or so of my
opening.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 25 at 0318 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO,
about 5 minutes into so started circa 0313, close to nominal 0315,
S9+15/20 into nearby SDR, with storm crashes. Next:

** U S A. 9330v, Sept 25 at 1509, WLCR/WBCQ is gone again, even at
prime Sunday-morn churchgoin time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9940, 9475, 5830, 5085, Sept 25 at 1508, WTWW is nowhere
with PPPP/SFAW or anything, at prime Sunday-morn churchgoing time.
Also have not noticed 5085 running late into night past 0600 lately
with rock. Maybe the electric bills are starting to hurt (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4905, Sept 25 at 0642, again tonight, that strange
``musical`` loop, continuous beat at the rate of 104 times per minute,
S9/+10, best audible in SSB mode, not FM, and no specific carrier.
Some ute, not broadcaster. This late, too inconvenient to record a
sample but hope to subsequently, or by someone, maybe also thus
earlier. Used to hear RTTY around 4905, maybe USN (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

This report dispatched at 1950 UT September 25

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, via Argentine SDR, Sat Sept 24 from
*1459 cut on in music, VG S7/S9 signal, 1501 standard s/ons with staff
names, 1503 theme song, 1505.5 poetic recitation, ``primavera`` song;
1513.5 ID with `su companyia` and into live talk by the YLs starting
the 22nd program of the season with guests, chicos from the
secundaria. Certainly a repeat of what I heard Wednesday, so I don`t
pay much further attention; but at 1525, just in case I try for even a
carrier trace direct: no. 1534 greetings from phone callers, but chop
off during chat at 1542*. In case, I let it run until 1600, but
nothing more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 750, Sept 24 at 0627 UT, WSB is off for tower-light
maintenance the third and last? night in a row. On DX398 with internal
antenna only and altazimuth wrist mount, not much from Cuba this time,
but Spanish looping NE/SW, i.e. KAMA El Paso, see USA. From NW/SE in
English, ``Now, let`s put on some tunes``, and 0635 ``80s, 90s, Beach
Radio, more? fun``. At 0627 I had thought it was ``News Radio``. This
is the 25 kW Canadian far from any ocean beach in Melfort SK, CKJH.
Atlas shows Sask. River in the area and some little lakes, maybe
providing some kind of beach, or wishful branding? Website pictures a
very rocky beach and zero sunbathers: https://beachradiosk.ca/ I have
heard this before with or without WSB. Supposedly direxional almost
all northward at night with a notch toward WSB, ND daytime (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11880, Sept 23 at 2312, RHC second English
broadcast of day is another total loss, S7/S9+5 of dead air except for
some crackling. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11760, Sept 23 at 2312, S9+20 of dead air except maybe a trace of
modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11850, Sept 23 at 2312, this RHC is off, also depriving us of the
11840 & 11860 spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

5040, Sept 23 at 2313, RHC good with music, could be English hour
inaudible on 11880, more likely Spanish as recently.

11950, Sept 23 at 2313, RHC with loud Spanish, presumably the
alternate TV audio hour of `Mesa Redonda`, but nominal // 6000 is off.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.

9535, Sept 23 at 2314, Chinese has CCI with a SAH presumably caused by
RHC always weakish here. CC is CNR1 jamming and/or RFA Kuwait.

11670, Sept 23 at 2315, RHC Spanish, S7/S9 distorted. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 23 at 2157, no signal in extremely distorted
English from R. Cairo into UTwente; somethings always amiss at Abis
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Sept 24 at 0715, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
nothing else on 9/kHz splits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Sat Sept 24 at 1850, since I`ve just checked for
NIGERIA on the Canary SDR, time for weekly English from ORTM, better
luck from this, S8/9+10 with warning in French that English is to
follow. YL accent so heavy she`s almost impossible to comprehend;
alternating OM is better but subjects do not grab my attention. 1904
brief noise burst and running-H2O QRM. 1905 mentions ``92.0`` and
abrupt cut to music. That`s their FM frequency in Bamako (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 24 at 0641, no signal direct from VON.
Something`s always absent from Abuja.

7255-, Sept 24 at 1849, no VON signal into Canary Islands SDR, not
checked earlier; was it offandonandoffandon, or just off? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6974.9 approx. AM, Sept 24 at 0126, JBA pirate
music. Many other reports as unID on 6974.89:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102244.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, Sept 24 at 0127, pirate music at S9+20;
0133 soft tunes, YL ID? 0137 ``Teenagers in Love``; 0139 ID, ``Ball
Smacker Radio`` with tenpins SFX. This is her regular Friday-night
frequency; 0143 ``Down in the Boondox``; ID again at 0145, ``Ball
Smacker Radio, [tenpins], 6960 AM, somewhere in the Northeast``.
Meanwhile, I have been getting another B.S.R.[?] on 6950 USB, q.v. -
sure hope I`ve not mixed up my log notes about them. Much more here:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, Sept 24 at 0126, S9 pirate music; 0129 YL
refers to ballsmackerradio.org -- what? Goes nowhere. BSR is already
on 6960 AM, q.v. 0147 something about ``gold-plated`` and website
again. 0151 listeners static?, 0152 transmitter off and on a few
times, barking sound. 0157 different ID by OM over music and surprise
CW once, only copied last letter, D or G. These explain it was really
WDOG doing parody of BSR, maybe Bone Snacker? No such website either.

** OKLAHOMA. 1120 kHz, Sept 23 at 0118 UT, heavy Spanish QRM to KMOX,
presumed KETU Catoosa/Tulsa again overtime past offical Sept sunset of
0030 UT; Oct: 2345. I think: FCC AM Query can`t find this or any OK
station on 1120! So I look up KRMG SS times. It would be a rare day
indeed if a clear channel station ever sic`ed the FCC upon such repeat
encroachers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Sept 23 at 2311, local Enid CB pirate is
still
undermodulated, relaying and // music on 95.7 FM KXLS, S9 enough to
block the channel.

At end of AAAWWW on WBCQ before 0100 UT Sept 24, reading some items
from FRW specially compiled by lw, since new issue of FRW edited by
Dave is never done before Saturday morning; including ``Good Buddy
Radio`` in OK on CB ch 19, 27185 --- I never heard it called that. Did
some otherokie report it? AW never mentions who logged the items he
refers to, all too briefly, an opportunity ``not to encourage``
piracy, instead buy legal time on WBCQ, the only licensed [ex]pirate
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday Sept 23 at 2200, tokEnglish from REE, VG into
Maryland SDR, previews an interview with some scientist about the Juno
mission exploring Jupiter and satellites. In a few minutes I am
listening mostly to that rather than the simulcompetition from Turkey,
etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 23 at *2158, VOT carrier on at S9+45/50 into
UTwente, 2200 opening English but very undermodulated so again I have
to run both remote and local volumes at max for `normal` listening
level. But the competition from SPAIN has a more interesting topic
today, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 11825, Sept 23 at 2318, surprised to find an S1/S5 yet
sufficient signal from BBCWS in English discussing expansion of
Commonwealth to unlikely members like Mozambique. This hour only it`s
direct from VOA Tinang, Philippines relay for Indonesia, so not even
on a 21-degree antenna thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2157 monitoring: Still confirmed
Friday September 23 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz. Noale SDR has
timed out so I try the two in Parma, Italy: 2059 cuts off some other
program for ID and WOR, S9+10/20 but noisy, no QRM, and still not on
918 or 207 either; adjacents 1314 in Spanish, i.e. RNE R5 with three
synchros totalling 40 kW; and 1332 in Romanian, i.e. 50 kW RRA in
Galati. Other Parma gets better S/N, but also audiblizes some musiQRM
under.

Also confirmed UT Saturday September 24 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5129.973, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR; by wrapup 0428 peaking a little
higher, S9+13.

Also confirmed Saturday September 24 from 1942 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
Gateway 160 Newsletter, Wentzville MO, VG steady groundwave S9+17 into
nearby Warrenton SDR, and no storm noise. Also from 1930 on WRN N

** U S A. 3265.171, Sept 24 at 0003, this WBCQ confirmed active but
way off-frequency, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, as `AAAWWW` has started on
UT Saturday. Rest of it I monitor on 7490 webcast; strangely, never
heard a single dig at Democrats being Commies, nor anything political,
maybe because TimTron is guest in studio. Allan is in Monticello
master control, Angela remote on the phone, so no fiddling with her
microphone as normally starting. Temp is 46 in Maine, expecting high
winds from edge of H. Fiona. Lots of talk about electric vehicles: TT
got a ride in one on the way in, and is impressed. 0020 thanking staff
and listeners. 0046 current date Sept 23, YOOLF 2022 and
quadri-casting. 0055 a few advance Free Radio Weekly items from lw -
see OKLAHOMA. Prayer and closing as usual run slightly over into Hal
Turner time, 0101 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12160, Sat Sept 24 at 1700-1730, `Talking [sic] Machine
Show` from WWCR pounding in as usual here tho not targeted thisaway;
unusually plays some instrumental classical music from cylinders circa
1910y (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 750, Sept 24 at 0639 UT, WSB is off for tower-light
maintenance the third and last? night in a row. On DX398 with internal
antenna only and altazimuth wrist mount, not much from Cuba this time,
but NW/SE in English, see CANADA: and NE/SW Mexmx and Spanish,
certainly not Cuba, and unlikely any of the minor Mexicans.
Fortunately US counts upon a border station trying to sound Mexican,
which now YL IDs as ``en Kama750.com``, that is KAMA EL Paso TX, U4
10/1 kW. Website is really kama750am.com. Seems to take turns fading
up and down with Melfort, but anyway mutually nullable. Appropriately
I am DXing this while lying in my cama. Believe have heard before with
or without WSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, 7932 & 8620, still no signals from RV, Sept 24 at
0643 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1449.94 approx., Sept 24 at 0120 UT, het to the 1450
graveyard pileup. What`s this? MWoffsets has lots of precision
measurements but none lower than minus 15 Hz in the US (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4905, Sept 24 at 0705, S9+10 signal sounds somewhat
musical in a loop, maybe ute? Possibly R Relógio, Brasil, never heard
elsewhen and it`s too early for Tibet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. RF 8, 10, 12, 28, 35, Sept 24 at 1540 UT, BAD DTV
signals into my SSE antenna, probably Wichita area as APRS map shows
tropo enhancement north of here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 2044 UT September 24

** ALGERIA [non]. 7295 & 9535, Sept 23 at 0512, no signals into
Maryland from TDA via ISSoudun, France, as had been scheduled this
hour. At 0633 only a JBA carrier on 9620, suspect gone from here too,
so something else? Aoki shows no other, but EiBi has CNR2, Beijing
site. So it seems the multi-year relays are finished now that TDA
finally has some SW transmitters of its own on air, however unreliably
and unscheduledly. New SW transmitters at the Béchar and Ouargla LW
sites already discussed in DXLD 11-08 of 24 Feb *2011*:
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1108.txt
following DXLD 11-06 of 10 Feb 2011:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12060, Sept 23 at 0635, pulse jamming is audible on 2 x 6030,
where it`s an S9 wall-of-noise against nothing, except poor inaudible
CFVP which doesn`t have the sense to GET OFF such a Cuban radio war
frequency. Something`s always crazy at the DentroCuban Jamming Command
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6140, Sept 23 at 0642, RHC JBA carrier, leapfrog mixing
product of the only two English frequencies on air now, 6060 & 6100,
both undermodulated with hum and slightly more distortion on the
upper. 6165, 6000 and 5040 are all off. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Sept 23 at 1449, RHC is S7/S9 of dead air in Spanish;
very weak S4/S6, 15140 also seems unmodulated. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ITALY [and non]. My usual Friday check Sept 23 for WOR on IRRS 7290
via Bulgaria and 1323 via Italy, confirms that like last week, WOR has
been canceled from its former 1815 UT airing: see USA. So here is what
I did hear: 1323 kHz, AM Italia, Villa Estense, and not on 918 or 207
kHz, into nearby Noale SDR at 1750 tune-in with classical music, piano
concerto, but soon Hungarian announcement, so that`s the minority
service from Romania. CC QRM from this will only get worse into fall
and winter nights; othermusic under must be AM Italia. 1755 an
American PSA about autism. 1800 no Feature Story News either, but into
a woman gospel huxter like last week, and now the CCI from Romania has
changed to minority German with a strange accent. 1815 I check 7290
via UTwente, which is S7/S9 in // but clear of QRM as the g.h.
continues her mostly monolog; besides Christian themes she and an
occasional male voice sidekick, ``Dr Luther``, are concerned against
``One-World Government``. He calls her ``Rexella`` --- now we know who
and what this is, as there can`t be more than one g.h. by that name,
Rexella Van Impe, who would now be almost 90, widow of Jack van Impe
[pronouned Im-pee, it seems] who died on Jan. 18, 2020. Another topic:
gender is not ``fluid``, despite her name! Gives a box number in Troy
MI, for Jack Van Impe Ministries, hymn. I look her up on a YT video
allegedly from May 2021, when she still had a full head of blonde
hair!

At 1832 into `Feature Story News` from Washington. 1835 a promo for
some other g.h. on European Gospel Radio = IRRS. 1836 JIP the
conclusion of `Counterspin`, ID for WUSB 90.1 & 107.3, Stoney Brook
NY, 6 pm Tuesday timecheck and `Off the Wall` hacker show starting
with some music... If WOR is gone for good from here, won`t need to
monitor this any more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 23 at 0639, VON is on at S9/+10 but
just barely modulated, JBM. At 1639-1700+, no signal yet into
stormnoisy Canary SDR for scheduled 1630- English. But there it is by
*1705, -66v Hz offset = 7254.933, really unreadable presumed English
with squeal, S7 vs S8 storm crashes. It seems there is lightning every
night in NW Africa, now concentrated in western Algeria. Dumps off air
at 1711 for almost a minute. Off again by 1724, leaving a JBA,
almost-on-frequency signal, presumably imperialist-ChiCom-occupied
TIBET, as listed. *1731 VON back on, signal improving somewhat as
evening progresses. Canary sunset not until 19 UT, Abuja was 1726. Off
again at 1741*, back on at *1750, when I`m called to lunch. And so it
goes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11745, Sept 23 at 1450, Arabic S7/S9, one of better
signals on band, except 11760 Cuban failure. Must be Al-Azm Radio, the
`AFRTS` for invaders in Yemen. EiBi and Aoki show extensive hours via
Jeddah site. WRTH 2022 has it only on page 522 among COTB =
Clandestine and Other Target Broadcasts, not sure about site. Wonder
if now via longpath, aimed at what azimuth? Jeddah toward Yemen would
be roughly SE, favorable for long-path, vs NW direct (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Sept 23 after 0500 past 0600, no signal yet
from SIBC into several Australia/NZ/Hawai`i SDRs, nor on MW 1035, on
this their anniversary. Also checked direct at 0645 and two random
times before 1100, but as usual here only a JBA carrier, with heavy
splash from 5025 Cuba still on. Just in case, also checked remotes for
9545 before 0500, but evidently still inactive there. A special eQSL
was offered for this date only. I hope someone will post it so we can
see it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2157 monitoring: Well, not at 0130
UT Friday September 23 on WRMI 5850 & 7730, replaced on the air and on
the skedgrid by `Viva Miami`, which is still repeating a 2-month-old
edition in Spanish publicizing the Mexican DX meeting coming up at the
end of July in Guadalajara; presumably necessary fill in order to
accommodate `RFPI` which is again on the sked at 0145. The same thing
happened without notice on March 18, but then Jeff agreed to put us
back on what had been our first airing minutes after completion, as of
March 25. I`m asking for that again. Hard to believe that `RFPI` would
want to buy that quarter-hour in some Slavic? language, about the
worst time of day for European listening.

WOR 2157 confirmed still at 0330 UT Friday September 23 on WRMI 7780
toward the SW. Hard to find much of a signal on a remote like Durango
or Brownsville, but S8/9+5 into Maryland. By 0336 fading down to S7,
and 0337 also with some noise burst QRM.

Also confirmed Friday September 23 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9 direct
but undermodulated, no jamming audible.

Last week Sept 16 at 1815, WOR was expected to be pre-empted for
`Station of the Cars` on third Friday, and indeed did not appear but
something else instead. The same thing this week, Friday Sept 23, so I
must conclude WOR is gone from IRRS 7290, even tho it`s still on their
Friday online program schedule. Hope the other two times on MW 1323
only will at least continue. See ITALY [and non] for what I did hear
this week. Next:
