** ALGERIA. 17600, Sept 11 at 2208, S2/S3 of secular-sounding Arabic talk, no doubt TDA, and the OSOB = only signal on band, since on Sunday 17855 Spain is already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, Sept 11 at 2214, S6/S9 of dead air when RHC is supposed to be Frenching; 11850 Spanish is JBM with JBA plus/minus 10 kHz parasitic spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Unknown if English succeeded at 2300; a while ago someone reported 11880 in Spanish instead of French here after 2200. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, Sept 12 at 0607, RHC English S9+10/20 with humwhine; 6100, S9+20/30 JBM English; all others off including 5040. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 12 at 0608 check, VON is OFF. 7255-, Sept 12 at 1734, VON is ON, signature minus 66/69 Hz offset = 7254.934 to .931, English talk about Nigeria, hard to follow despite S9/+10 into Canary SDR, squeal, lots of storm noise from N Morocco into SE Spain and N Algeria; and 2ACI from 7265, much louder CRI Russian pontificating via Urumqi, East Turkistan, std denunciation. AMNarrow or LSB helps a bit but still squealy. Recheck at 1757, VON is OFF, supposed to run another hour in English and after that Fulfulde vs heavy ChiCom CCI not 2ACI. VON may be cutting off and on erratically should I have cared to keep on it. But by 1817 recheck, the H2Ofall is blank, as Peter, EA8BFK = DJ9PC must have recaptured it for his own hamming as per standard warning. 1907 it`s back, nothing but CRI Turkish, huge S9+10/25 and almost on-frequency. Hard to believe this be all the way from Kunming instead of E Turkistan. SDR location is the CI of Fuerteventura. Antenna is ``80m Loop`` -- measuring 80 metres, or peaking on the 80m band? It worx well anyway on 40m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6920 USB, Sept 11 at 2220, rock music S5/S6. Several reports also as unID, between 2143 and 2225 at least: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101808.0.html Some request QSL anyway; if forthcoming, would it then be IDed, or ``QSLing your unID...``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Sept 12 at 0045, hard rock, some DJ? talkovers unreadable; 0125 quick ID as Radio --something, back to music. Many logs here as Sycko Radio, not exactly at 0125 tho: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101816.0.html BTW at 0051 a noise burst of about 10 seconds, probably RF auto-ignition of my nearest streetlight circa sunset which was at 0045; but not confirmed at visible wavelengths -- i.e. I did not hasten to look out a window (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Sept 11 at 2202, S8.5/S9 of JBM music but this time matchable to 95.7 KXLS ``Lahoma`` Enid, fourth known station local CB pirate has rebroadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: tnx to Vern who explains without my asking what happened UT Sunday circa 0315 UT: ``Hi Glenn, This is to let you know that WOR 2155 did not air in the 22:15 CDT slot on Sept. 10. An area wide power outage from 21:25 to 23:55, caused by a severe lightning thunderstorm in the area. It caused WA0RCR to be off air during that time. Operation did not resume until 23:56 CDT. Vern Jackson`` -- I wish other affiliates would do that. Confirmed Sunday September 11 at 2005, the 2000 on AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+5/18 well atop musical understation. Yesterday 918 was also on and much better into same nearby Noale SDR. Also confirmed UT Monday September 12 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S8/9+5 into Maryland SDR with usual noise burst for a few seconds at start. Also confirmed ENDING at 0259 UT Monday Sept 12 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160-, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR, and right into Hobart Radio International, both half an hour early! Larry Will says sorry, it was a one-time automation mixup. BTW, HRI program was dated 23 July - 13 August, i.e. was supposed to repeat week after week over a monthlong period, now long past. Next WORs: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html A noncommercial service for which financial support is appreciated to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, by money order or check on a US bank. Or via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, Sept 12 at 0612, this WRMI is S9+20, distorted and splattering again, as far down as 9410 marring BBC. Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330v, Sept 12 at 1523 check, WLCR/WBCQ is still AWOL at least during this hour. What does WLCR own sked say? https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio-broadcast-schedule.html 9330, nonstop 24h including nothing but English 1100-2400, all at 253 degrees, yet specifying different targets: Central/West USA at 11-14; Canada/Upper Mid-West USA at 14-17; East/Central USA at 17-24. Why 253 degrees? I had not realized until tracking it on my NGS Globe with geometer, that it`s aimed right at Enid! Thus WLCR has been dedicated from the outset to convincing ME that the World is flat!! And incidentally that there is some wacky deity, ``Preparing for Yahuwah`s Earthly Kingdom, Established at Yahushua`s Imminent Return!`` -- Y & Y, what`s the diff? Guess I have not been paying attention, but ``don`t spell me Yahweh!``. Cf. WMLK and Station YHWH. Anyhow, no one is in a better position than I to divine whether 9330 be on the air or not during all those hours. 253 degrees also crosses near Detroit, out of USA east of El Paso, and out of Norteamérica across BCS. Eventually it hits Tahiti, and New Zealand. This is slightly beyond the nominal azimuth of all the ``classic`` WBCQ antennas, 245 degrees as in FCC, while 9330 has a wide variety of other angles registered, totally different from own current sked. Still nothing but 9330, no other imaginary frequencies contemplated as in original plan, since they still haven`t figured out how to QSY. For a while they were compensating for this by hiring some time elsewhere, still IDing as if WBCQ, but has anyone heard those lately: current HFCC shows Spaceline, Sofia, Bulgaria for Allan H Weiner: Perhaps only one at a time, or none: 07-12 13840 & 17520, 07-15 15780, all multilingual, daily, 250 kW at 156 degrees to CIRAFs 38,39,48,47E = NE, E and C Africa from Libya to Sudan to Kenya, and Turkey thru Arabian Peninsula, of course including Egypt HQ of the cosmetix magnate instigator, an alien who could not own a US SW station directly. What`s his name? Lotsa luck finding it at https://www.worldslastchance.com/founders-headquarters.html with weasely generalities. New Jerusalem, really? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. RF 27, KFOR-TV OKC ``4`` with premiere of `NBC News Daily`, Sept 12 at 1800 UT. This hour replaces the soapera `DOOL` which has been banished to Peacock after countless decades on real air. Opening gives time of 2 pm in the east, 11 am in the west, --- and 1 pm in St Louis!!! Incredible, a national coastal-based network acknowledging that there be anything such as a different timezone in the great Central US. Will they ever mention Denver, or Phœnix? Evidently it`s running live everywhere, rather than 3-hour delay to PDT, so must require some other program-juggling. This fortuitously coincides with EIIR* super-coverage destined to last at least another week, but by 1808 already moved on to T**** and many other topix. Some of same anchors, but no, not on MSNBC too. Let`s hope it continue to cover the news broadly with twice as much time M-F as `Nightly` which is airing before sundown in most of the country. At least here, confronts `The Talk` on CBS, and an hour after `GMA3` on ABC, hardly hard news there. NBC provides 1822 & 1852 cutaways used for local weather, hostessed by the very pregnant meteorologiste Emily Sutton; https://kfor.com/news/local/big-announcement-kfors-emily-sutton-is-expecting/ She`s also on the pre-sunrise shift, #2 only to Mike Morgan in primetime 4 pm+. Enid`s low this morning was 49, whew! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7932+, Sept 12 at 0610, RV is S7/S8 vs CODAR, 2 x 3966+, back on Monday after silent Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1916 UT September 12

Sunday, September 11 2022
** CHINA. 13530, 13130, 13020, Sept 11 at 1457, JBA carriers, the usual trio if any from CNR1 jammers against Sound of Hope (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** COLOMBIA. 6017.012, Sept 11 at 0706, JBA music vs jamming bleed, from 6030? Presumably the lately reported pirate, which was already identified 5 months ago by Rafael Rodríguez R. as Organización Radial el Prado, in Palermo, Magdalena (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100 et al., Sunday Sept 11 at 0708, no signals from any RHC on 6 or 5 MHz, when Esperanto is supposed to air. A hopeless situation. The Sunday 1500 broadcast also must be missing, since at 1456 & 1500 chex, its only known frequencies, 11760 & 15140 are both OFF. Still on is 15230, VP undermodulated presumably Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 10 at 2159, R. Cairo, S9+25/35 into UTwente but extremely distorted with humwhine, supposedly English. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KIRITIMATI. 846, Sept 11 at 0646, no signal from R. Kiribati JBA carrier, tending to confirm Ron Howard`s suggestion that it may be silent on local Sunday nights. He could also not hear it this date. Date correct, omitted previously: 846, Sept 9 at 0615, JBA carrier, from R. Kiribati (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 11 at 0624, VON is absent direct. 7255- also absent at 1744 into Canary SDR with heavy storm crashes only some JBA signal within a few Hz of 7255, probably China. But at 1753 has cut on at minus 67/68 Hz offset with some squeal vs talk about Nigeria in English at S9/+10, still heavy crashes all over Morocco, northern Algeria. 1824 recheck, off again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Sept 11 at 0710, JBA presumed SIBC, with 5025 Cuba absent, but carrier should still have been detectable. Martin Hadlow says SIBC is offering a special eQSL for correct reports on its 70th anniversary date Sept 23 only, on SW or MW 1035, to sibcnews@solomon.com.sb I have one from the original VQO long ago on 5960. 5020 hours are nominally 05-12 UT but Ron Howard often hears it for two or three hours later. Nominal daytime frequency until 0500, 9545, has not been reported for a long time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWAZILAND. 11880, Sept 11 at 1458, S5/S6, TWR music box IS, ID seems axually to say ``ESwátini``, 1500 into language, listed Somali daily to 1530, Sundays -1545 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.007, Sept 10 at 2200, VOT English starting, VG into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE. (7730), circa 0500 UT, UR1 via WRMI with `Ukraine: Security Issue` war reports, as copied later from website. BTW, the 5 September edition is missing from the archive; was there something wrong with it? It still exists if you use this direct link as in my Roundup covering that date, with my as always incomplete notes: http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_05_09_22.mp3 I`ve already reported on Sept 6, Day 195, and Sept 7, Day 196. For Sept 8, Day 197: http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_08_09_22.mp3 including: U continues counteroffensive, 30 strixe launched. R command post destroyed. Almost 640 Rs KIA, highest daily total so far, in all more then 51K. High alert along BR border. In Mariupol R continues preps for show trial of Azov defenders, also civilians. UN mission to arrive in a Donetsk village to investigate R attack. After 6 weeks, R returned body of British volunteer, tortured and murdered? body is mutilated, needs forensic investigation. Companion is still in captivity. US has evidence that Putin admin officials are in charge of occupied areas, war crime. Hundreds of thousands of Us deported to R. US SOS Blinken arrived in Kyiv, $ 2 billion aid package for U and neighbors in Europe announced. For Sept 9, Day 198: oh, oh, the link for that really goes back to Sept 7 and if you change the 7 to 9 it`s unfound. O well (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKOGBANI. Proms on the BBC World Service --- The BBC Sounds linx to Proms have been displaying almost-year-long access, so I have been taking my time listening to them, so far up to only #17. However, on air announcements have been saying for only 30 days following the Last Night! Taking a look, #64 shows for 30 days from now, i.e. September 40 or about October 10, while #65 shows 359 days! What are we to believe, or does it depend on whichever individual concert? 73, Glenn Hauser On Sunday, July 31, 2022, 06:36:58 PM GMT+1, Glenn Hauser wrote: Sorry, but since BBCWS snubs N American SWLs - and others, I must again recommend listening at your pleasure for the next 364 days via: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/b007v097 Furthermore these would not be edited down to fit into a less than one-hour slot {Many run 2:30 on Radio 3 including non-Prom fill after approx. 2 hour concert} 73, Glenn Hauser --- HOWEVER: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2022/sep/09/last-night-of-the-proms-cancelled-out-of-respect-for-queen
``Classical music Last night of the Proms cancelled out of respect for Queen After cancellation of Thursday evening’s event, BBC announces final two concerts of the eight-week season will not go ahead Last modified on Fri 9 Sep 2022 16.45 EDT The BBC has announced that both Friday and Saturday’s Proms have been cancelled. Saturday would have been the Last Night, the traditional celebration that concludes the eight-week classical music festival that takes place predominantly in the Royal Albert Hall. Although the Last Night has been modified in response to public events (the programme was changed in 1997 after the death of Diana Princess of Wales and in 2001 after the 9/11 attacks) this is the first time since the second world war that the final concert has not taken place at all. Thursday night’s concert – the first of two due to feature the Philadelphia Orchestra – was also called off only half an hour before the event. An announcement was made at 7 pm, and with much of the audience already arriving at the venue, the orchestra instead played the National Anthem and Elgar’s Nimrod. The Royal Box remained empty and the curtain behind the seats was closed as a mark of respect. Later that evening the BBC announced that the season’s two remaining Proms would also be cancelled “as a mark of respect”. Saturday’s Prom was to have featured soprano Lise Davidsen and cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason with Dalia Stasevska conducting the BBC Symphony Orchestra. Many people on social media questioned the decision and saw it as a missed opportunity to use the Last Night as a musical tribute to the Queen. The event was due to be broadcast live on BBC Two and its second half on BBC One as well as on BBC Radio 3 and across the world.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. ND Beacon scan, Sept 11 at 0649-0658 UT, MCW in kHz: 420, PK, 25 watts in Olathe / Herbb KS.

WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday September 11 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S6/S9+25 into Maryland SDR, starting with self-imposed noise. NOT confirmed UT Sunday September 11 at 0322 or anytime later past 0453 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, because it`s OFF the air as monitored by nearby remote, with heavy storm crashes; indeed there is Blitz right over the St Louis area.

Or via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330v, Sept 11 at 1502, WBCQ/WLCR absent again, tho appears to be active at various other dayparts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, Sept 11 at 0704, this WRMI is off. O, the skedgrid dated Sept 9 shows WRMI-10 at 22-04 only; while WRMI-4 is also on 5800 never. Both 160 degrees like 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5980, Sept 11 at 0705, JBA carrier, unlikely to be the leapfrog mixing product which 5890 & 5935 WWCR normally provide weekends only, unless it has been almost suppressed. But nothing else is known at this hour to EiBi & Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5970, Sept 11 at 0709, RCM WEWN Spanish is again/still absent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15555 USB, Sept 11 at 1455, WJHR Milton FL is audible with gospel huxter peaking S8 vs noise level of S7.

Saturday, September 10 2022
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Sept 10 tuning Argentine remote from 1439, nothing yet. SDR thinx I am in Amarillo TX, IP confusion? Also Gary Pence in Dallas, someone in Hamburg. LRA36 cuts on air *1454 with sufficient S6/S7 music; 1502 canned standard sign-on with 4 languages, staff list, ``Nacional, la radio publica``. 1503 Esperanza themesong. 1507 historical bit mentioning Alasca and Groenlandia. 1511 song. 1515 ID ``su compañía``, then ``live`` YL chat. One of them is out sick. Not sure of program number mentioned but should have been #20; geo coords; Base founded 17 dic 1952.
Mentions ``viernes, 9 de setiembre``, so the missing Wed 7 Sept broadcast must have been on Friday instead when I did not check for it, nor anyone? 1520 multi-platform contact info starting with phone numbers, too fast and not repeated: give us a break if you want contacts. 1521 birthday greeting to someone who has completed another year; 1523 song but chopped off air at 1524* and never comes back! Yet another transmitter failure, why? And why won`t/don`t they ever turn it back on? I wonder if it only be sporadic electrical fluid. Yes, it`s off: always a good idea to recheck the SDR in case it have been inadvertently knocked off frequency. Remotely possible they tried again circa 1800, as once publicized for Sats, but not checked until 1922, nothing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Sept 9 circa 2115, no signal direct from R. Cairo; nor any at 2200 check into UTwente, rather some loud clicking from something else. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 5995, Sat Sept 10 at 1853 tune-in via Canary SDR, R. Mali, S7/S9+5, already in weekly English that I can scarcely understand, so heavy are the accents of the alternating W & M scriptreaders. Storm crashes from all over Morocco, some blaaps and running water QRM, some ACI from 5990 unless avoided. Finished 1906, French ID, music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 10 at 0646, VON is on; almost sounds like English intonation rather than Hausa, but too sleepy to concentrate. Might be something to do with EIIR*. 7255-, Sept 10 at 1853, no VON signal into Canary SDR. Not checked earlier but I suppose no English from 1630 today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27185 approx., Sept. 10 at 1915 UT, undermodulated music and ``The Hawk`` ID, on SW caradio in motion in Enid; one of its memories is programmed for this CB channel. Once again, the pirate relay of 97.7 KHRK Hennessey -- only 3.9 kW ERP so needs some help? No, already blasts into nearby Enid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, Sept 10 circa 1850 UT on caradio a few blox W of downtown Enid, open carrier vs the two weaker stations in KS and OK: not unusual to encounter such a mystery, perhaps someone`s RF feeder in a car left on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 18, KOPX OKC, I`m looking for NEWSY on 62-7, morning of Sept 10, but it`s ShopLC instead! Whew, lineup has been rearranged with NEWSY still there but on 62-6. The complete octostation: 62-8, HSN 62-7, ShopLC 62-6, NEWSY 62-5, TruReal 62-4, Grit 62-3, CourTV 62-2, Bounce 62-1, ION So it seems the secondary ION channel has been eliminated. I was going to notify RabbitEars about this, but they already have it; maybe it has been at least a week since I last sought NEWSY. KOPX is fortunately among the OKC stations always available thru rooftop antenna, but not my rabbitears. NEWSY, at least, is anti-cable by design. Info: https://rabbitears.info/market.php?request=station_search&callsign=kopx DA pattern has 8 equally spaced peaks and valleys around 360 degrees: Max 200 kW, Min 108.63, Avg 140.43; 1532 feet HAAT surely helps. https://rabbitears.info/pattern.php?request=ant_pat&ant_id=25076f916adca429016ae5a4803210e6&rotation=0&erp=200 My STB remembers when it was still on RF 50 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Sept 9 at 2200, REE token English, to NAm VG into Maryland; Justin Coe previews feature will be his interview with bluesman Corey Harris, which starts at 2214. He must have a huge archive of such stuff from his Ruta 61 show. US 61 runs up the western edge of Mississippi east of the River, into Memphis; thence crosses over to west of River in Arkansas, all the way thru Missouri, Iowa, similar to I-55 as far as St. Louis. Crosses River from Dubuque into Wisconsin at its SW corner but soon back across into Minnesota as far as Twin Cities. It originally ran thru Duluth almost to the Canadian border, outmoded by I-35 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.003, Sept 9 at 2200, VOT is on today, VG with only lite squeal, but I`m mainly listening to Spain. Missed topic of `Feeling Supreme` but followed at 2242 by `Did You Know That`, about ``Turkish Delight`` which has been around for 1600, or was it 2600 years. ``Turkish delight or lokum is a family of confections based on a gel of starch and sugar. Premium varieties consist largely of chopped dates, pistachios, hazelnuts or walnuts bound by the gel; traditional varieties are often flavored with rosewater, mastic gum, bergamot orange, or lemon. Wikipedia`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2155 monitoring: confirmed Friday September 9 at 1815.3 on IRRS SW, 7290 via BULGARIA, S9/+10 into UTwente; and // AM Italia, Villa Estense, 1323 AND 918 kHz but not LW 207 kHz. Maybe IRRS noticed my observation that 918 gets less QRM than 1323, so brought it back; but you never know. 918 into nearby Noale SDR at S9+22, while 1323 is generally below the CCI in German from Romania, worse than usual. Again, I monitor the whole hour: From 1755, 918 >> 1323, music of unknown origin. 1800 brief ``IRRS SW signing on`` and `Feature Story News`. As always, 7290 JIP late a bit before *1801. Guess what the only topic is, also for Spotlite segment at 1803; 1805 IRRS ID by YL still asserting totally wrong frequency 7125 long gone, plus 918 and recently added 1323; `UN News in Brief`. 1808 raucous music fill of unknown origin; 1813 `UN News in Brief` -- again? Wasn`t paying attn at 1805 whether same topix now. 1815 chop for a different IRRS plug/ID without frequencies, and WOR 2155 complete to 1844; at 1840 checked UTwente for 14580 = 2 x 7290 but not audible this time. 1844 bit of music, OM ID with Milan address; 1845 blues? music; 1848 unID DJ introduces an Irish jig, `The Cat`s Miaou`, no program name either. 7290 cuts off air already at 1855* instead of 1857. Back to 918, I find that still on but dead air, S9+22 of it. Shortly ID for AM Italia on 207 & 918 & 1323 kHz (kee-lo-hertz) by synth? YL. Never heard on 207 this hour nor for many weeks but does not mean it`s never on, tho I don`t see it reported in European MWDX clubs. `She` concludes with address info@amitalia.it, cute ESL ``Have a nice listening``; then a timecheck in Italian uncopied, music. Meanwhile on 1323 kHz the music has CCI and rumble; 1859 closing German announcement from Romania, tone. 918 remains much better as at 1901 they both play the Verdi closing theme of IRRS; yet neither MW frequency is going off the air now, and the SW is already long gone. Also confirmed Friday September 9 at 2052 the 2030 on AM Italia 1323 at S9+15 and rough; and much better 918 at S9+22, not 207. 1323 also has ACI from 1314 and less so from 1332. Both 918 & 1323 marred by storm noise from lightning right over NE Italy & vicinity. 2059 WOR finished, fragment of `Country Jamboree` opening, nexus.org ID, `Feature Story News`; 2108 song. Should anyone run across WOR on WRMI at a secret/unlisted time, such as Friday evening, do let us know: this has happened in the past. Also confirmed UT Saturday September 10 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela, 5130 minus 24/27 Hz, S6/S8 into Maryland remote.

(7489.9v), UT Sat Sept 12 at 0000, WBCQ stream with `AAAWWW` - a new one but an immediate turn-off as he starts by insulting us by equivalenting Communists = Socialists = Democrats = Biden, not necessarily in that order. Back toward the end of show he`s fishing around for the new issue of Free Radio News -- he means Weekly, not realizing that of the three rotating editors, only Harold gets it out ASAP after the UT Sat 0000 deadline; Larry is next; but it`s the following morning before Dave does it, including this week.

Also confirmed UT Friday September 9 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+5/8 into Maryland. Once again on this System/airing, the first 10 seconds or so are hit by a noise burst which is obviously also coming out of the WRMI transmitter, the immediately preceding canned ID in the clear. Also confirmed Friday September 9 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S9/S7 into Maryland SDR with some deep fading but no jamming audible. I have asked Jeff if he could find any time, and frequency for WOR on Friday evenings = early UT Saturdays, but none known, nor shown on a just updated Sept 9, but still outdated skedgrid at: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13Hra1coQGQAKDzn8QGeAqPuXbvFsn7umGzESGJQUx5k/edit#gid=0 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 850, Sept 9 at 0112 UT, as planned, I am checking KFUO Clayton MO, the LCMS station, just before legal Denver sunset sign-off: hymn, 0114 cut to canned sign-off, and itself chopped off before finished at 0115* as transmitter turned off. Yet another station lacking the finesse of human operation, for ignorant, clumsy automation. Before off, compared with KOA on DX-398, from which not much signal yet, but I am not hearing the 1+ Hz SAH I was getting in the middle of last night with that Christian music unID. Anyhow KFUO is definitely off tonight, nor am I hearing any trace of WQRM Duluth which should have signed off earlier. The only SAH is a much faster one with unknown else. Nor at 0615 am I hearing anything but talk from KOA, altho poor, no musiQRM. And the KIRITIMATI carrier on 846, which draws me to this bandpart in first place is again JBA. As for the hymn heard last night, ``By his hand, he leadeth me``, I enjoy trying to Latinize stuff, so run that thru Google translate, resulting in: per manum suam adduxit me -- reverse: he led me by his hand That seems a bit cumbersome so I enter what I think it should be in Latin: manu suo me duxit is, for reverse translation, and get: He led me with his hand However, leadeth is present, not past tense, don`t you know? So what about, ``by his hand he leads me``? That can be boiled down to: me manu duxit But present tense ``he leads me`` is just: ducit me. ducit is the proper verb, indicative present tense, third person singular. Duxit is the same but indicative perfect, i.e.. past tense. https://latin.cactus2000.de/showverb.en.php?verb=ducere BTW, if you leave out the pronoun, you can hardly Capitalise it, deity-wise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7932.05, Sept 9 at 0558 past 0600, R. Vanuatu still here vs CODAR on 2 x 3966+; better at 0635, inaudible on 3966; trace JBA carrier 11898+ vs huge Chinese on 11895. Cannot stay awake past 0700 QSY, but Gary Pence and Wolfgang Bueschel reconfirm 4310+, 8620+, 12930+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1753 UT September 9

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Sept 8 at 0623, VON is off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2154 monitoring: missed checking UT Thu Sept 8 at 9395 on WRMI 9395; anyone hear it? Confirmed UT Thursday September 8 at 0149 the 0130 on WRMI 5010, S9/+15 but noisy into Bonaire SDR. New WOR 2155 should be ready early UT Friday September 9 for download and first SWBCs at 0130 on WRMIs 5850 & 7730. Check: http://www.worldofradio.com/audiomid.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9455, Sept 8 at 1453 VP signal from Brother HyStairical, like booming 9980 WWCR, so WRMI must be reactivated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330v, Sept 8 at 1454, WLCR/WBCQ absent again for at least the third day when checked during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 850, Sept 8 at 0650 UT, hymns mostly instrumental dominating on E/W longwire rather than KOA, but it`s soon audible underneath with C2CAM // unimpeded 840 WHAS. Slow SAH between them on 850, of 68/minute = 1.13 Hz. Surely this be my long-ago local in Clayton MO, KFUO, 5 kW daytimer but extended until Denver sunset, long passed now. Maybe missed a ToH 0700 ID when I was chasing Vanuatu on SW, but at 0701 still hymns. An announcement at 0715 but fading and uncopied, then choral hymn ``He Leadeth Me``. Then I DF it on DX-398 and get NE/SW, mutually nullable with KOA NW, close to right angle apart. Fits for KFUO, which does play a lot of Christian music. Only other possible REL in NRC AM Log is WQRM, 50 kW daytimer in Duluth MN, but apparently mostly talk. MWOffset measurements from 2021, 2020, 2019 resp.: KOA on 849.9987, KFUO on 850.0025, WQRM on 850.0001 --- that would make KOA and KFUO .0038 kHz apart or 3.8 Hz. But WQRM/KOA only .0014 kHz apart, much closer to my reading. Should be easy to compare when KFUO is legal, before official FCC Denver sunset in Sept, 0115 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7932.055, Sept 8 at 0620, R. Vanuatu JBA direct vs CODAR; JBA carrier on 11898+. Second and third harmonix of untried 3966+ ex-3945. At 0657, 7932 off already. By 0702 Sept 8 after another frequency change, JBA talk and music on 8620.381 as discovered last night by Ron Howard, which is 2nd harmonic of 4310.190, JBA carrier at 0707. Also on X3 = 12930.6 approx. at 0705, JBA carrier vs high noise level. Nothing on X4 = 17241- at 0709. Contrary to wb`s assumption? Ron Howard hears from Bryan Clark that he has been in contact with Adrian Sainsbury still at RNZI, about these `rogue` frequencies from Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5900, Sept 8 at 0624 S9/+10 of Arabic?/ME music, 0630 announcement, chopped off at 0632*. Aoki has nothing but relays via Bulgaria at other times; EiBi some more but nothing listed at this hour. My guess: ALGERIA testing on yet another frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1830 UT September 8
