** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Jan 21 at 1459 tune-in via
Argentine remote, LRA36 already on with music; Dan Robinson says it
was already running at 1428. Today is widely-publicized special for
1500; and the SDRs are maxed out, so I have to camp, first on someone
in Yokohama tuned to exact frequency, S5/S7 rather than some others
believing that 15476 be correct, making the pitch slightly ``off``.

Songs keep playing, 1505 some yelling, more songs. 1511 finally
attempts canned sign-on, but breaks cutting out. 1512 a few words.
1513, ``hola, hola, hola`` as if attempting to make contact; another
rough opening! 1515 succeeds sign-on with multi-lingual disclaimer
that only in Spanish. 1526 apparent live talk by male voices only, how
odd; one of them calls the other one Marcelo. 1525 something about
year 1904; 1527 music; 1540 Panorama Nacional, RASG ID, ``su cía``.

Weakening now to S5 and even further into the SDR local noise level.
More IDs, contact info including long whatsapp number, FB. 1545 about
the Antarctic Comando. 1552 mentions soberanía, as the Args don`t try
to hide their territorial claim contrary to the Anta. Treaty as an
``international`` continent. Temp as 6 C, winds west? at 65? kph. 1600
song. 1604 about `Panorama Nacional` newscast originating at LRA36 M-F
at 6-7 o`clock - am or pm? on the entire LRA network during January.

I would happily listen this time on the webcast at:
https://vmf.edge-apps.net/embed/live.php?streamname=sc_rad32-100131&autoplay=true
as linked from:
https://www.radionacional.com.ar/welcome/
but it gets this error message via two different browsers: ``The media
could not be loaded, either because the server or network failed or
because the format is not supported``. Does anyone get it to play now,
or ever?

At 1610 I try a different Arg. SDR but only S3. 1616 finally a female
voice, from a caller. 1622 song. 1628 again plug Panorama Nacional.
1630 contact info. 1631 acknowledges a listener in São Paulo and that
SDRs in S America are maxed out. 1633 temp now 5.8 C, winds 33 kph
gusting to 55. 1635 YL voice and/or child briefly. 1638 the word
``base`` goes into looping, and then some other looping. 1641 Adrián
Korol, head of RAE is finally heard. Mostly it`s just chat between the
two? hosts, colloquially harder to understand than if they were
projecting radiophonically to the audience rather than each other.

We never hear any of the publicized historical content, like old IDs,
La Rosa de Tokio about it. I`ve had more than enough by now, but let
it run without taking detailed notes. 1651 ID. 1655 song. 1658 dead
air, is it over? No, 1701 bit of music, more DA. 1706 bits of talk and
songs. After that nothing but music past 1712, 1800, 1830. They must
be letting it run till the scheduled replay at 1900.

At 1858 I find one Arg SDR is still maxed out with nothing but LRA36
on its four RX, so I have to camp again, but I can`t spend another 3+
hours trying to monitor this, deep in the buzzy noise level. Back to
The Elixir of Love from The Met...

Oh oh, at 1915 I try the webcast link as above one more time, and now
it is playing, with LRA36 ID, and just starting a special edition of
RAE`s `Actualidad DX`, about early history of station. I don`t think
this be what were on SW 4 hours earlier.

Omar Somma interviews Juan Carlos Saldia? --- about its beginning in
1978/79. First transmitter was 1200 watts. 20 Oct 1979 was ready to go
on air: off-air recording. ``49 metros``, 6030 IIRC. At end offers
eQSL for correct reports to lra36@hotmail.com - then plays the
multilingual disclaimer; and live announcement that LRA36 is about to
close down as their ham station LU1ZV is coming on. (The -Z- indicates
Antda. geographically rather than a numerical call area; WTFK???) This
show ought to be available for retrieval later in case you missed it.
By 2000 the stream is all-music.

Further reading: Wikipedia is not pleased with this entry:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentine_Antarctica
The word ``radio`` appears only thrice on the entire page, once as a
footnote, RNASG once in connexion with a school.

TK Wood posted this at swling.com on Jan 19: ``If you speak Spanish,
there is a lengthy interview with two outgoing LRA36 staff members on
REE’s Amigos de la Onda Corta program. Aired 12 January 2023.``

Not so lengthy: it`s about 6-17 minutes into half-hour show but no
timer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA [non?]. 4940, Jan 21 at 0702, no signal, not even a JBA
carrier from the gospel huxter which is probably in Venezuela. I have
not bothered to log it in ages, but it`s always been there in
mid-nightly bandscans (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Jan 21 at 0056, RHC already on in Spanish, // 6000, as
QRM to WBCQ 6160. 6165 is supposed to be in English from 0100 while
6000 until 0100 is the alternate Mesa Redonda TV soundtrack.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Jan 21 at 0702, RHC dead air in English, S9/+10 and //
6165, S9. Probably about to be turned off as no other RHCs are still
on, 5, 6, 10 or 11 MHz bands. 5025 Rebelde, however, is still on, and
guess what, modulating! I check for harmonix: JBA carrier on 12120,
maybe 2 x 6060, but nothing on 12330 = 2 x 6165. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Jan 21 at 0716, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati.
Sorry if these almost-nightly logs seem boring, but in absence of any
other TPs audible, 10? kW over a clear 4500-mile path is significant.
Distance approx. on my NGS globe with geometer. Distancefromto.net has
a terrible time with this one, trying to link Enid with S Africa,
Australia, or at best, Kiribati West (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Sat Jan 21 at 1730 UT, KUCO-FM amid `The Score`,
topic music from James Bond movies. This is NOT the episode which
aired Thu at 2000, supposed to repeat Sat at 1700. I can`t find a JB
episode searching show archive https://www.thescore.org/playlists/
which has #764 as of Jan 14. Maybe it`s the Jan 21 ep already (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2174 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday January 21 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, VG S9+10/20 direct.

Also confirmed UT Saturday January 21 at 0500 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130 minus 16 Hz = 5129.984, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed Saturday January 21 at 1722 the 1700 on WRN North
America webcast.

Also confirmed Saturday January 21 starting way late at 2120 the 2030
on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, VG S9+20 by groundwave into nearby
Warrenton SDR; following an admittedly overlong `QSO Today` including

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

** U S A. 6160 minus 66 Hz into Maryland remote = 6159.934, UT Sat Jan
21 at 0057, music playing on this WBCQ, 0100 JIP `AAAWWW` as theme
`WTO` is ending! So must have started playback 2 minutes early,
probably because they know it`s 62 minutes long and to avoid running
over into Hal Turner at 0200. Yes, it`s obviously a repeat of last
week`s show when Allan mistakenly referred to his top frequency as
7415 instead of 7490. So, dispensable, after I check and measure the
other frequencies. 5130 is only -2 Hz now, = 5129.998; 7490 at -69 Hz
= 7489.931 with FKB gospel huxter before 0100. 3265+ is NOT on, tho
Allan claims it is, which it was, as of last week`s show. It seems
replays are never edited to be less confusing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 7260, Jan 21 at 0705, JBA carrier, so is RV back
here even after 0700? 7890, Jan 21 at 0706 also has a JBA carrier,
i.e., 7260 must be something else, Mongolia? However, no signal on
11835 harmonic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 20 at 0703, S9+10/30 of dead air from R. Rebelde;
and again no RHC signals still on this late. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba. This vs my typical local HNL of S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Jan 20 at 0710, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati
and none other 9/kHz splits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Thanks to Enid`s only local TV signal, K17JN-D
on RF and virtual 17 being on the air this week, I am able to view
another episode of 3ABN-TV`s `AWR 360: Broadcast to Baptism`,
0430-0500 UT Friday January 20. It`s so saccharine that I can`t bear
to listen to it, but keep an eye on the video. This time there is no
disclaimer at the start admitting that it`s all dramatization rather
than documentary. Four similar stories of non-Caucasian people
happening to pick up an AWR broadcast and winding up almost drowned by
a 7DA official. (I`d take the Methodist method any day.) Madagascar,
Namibia, Mexico and Tanzania, NO info on station names, frequencies or
exact locations somewhere in the center of each country, with stylized
towers radiating animated signals: doubtful any would have been SW,
likely local FM if they really exist. Subjects were holding
unrecognizable boxes up to their ears with rod ``antennas``. Then of
course pitches to fund such ``conversions`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Jan 20 at 2306-2330, VG S9+15/20 into Maryland
SDR, token English feature from REE is about Chinese/American painter
Martin Wong, *1946-1999*, exhibit in Spain until Jan 29, Justin Coe
interviewing curators. Easy to find images of his work online, making
this much more interesting, including this in particular:
https://www.comunidad.madrid/en/noticias/2022/11/08/comunidad-madrid-presenta-primera-exposicion-monografica-europa-artista-martin-wong
not to be confused with another Martin Wong, photographer of seminude
young women. // 11940 = 12030 both S6/S9, but no signal at all on
11670 or 11685 as Africa continues out of luck (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Jan 20 at 2303, NO signal from VOT English for
N America nor XJPBS into UTwente. Still no VOT at 2330, but XJPBS in
Chinese has come on in the meantime. Std denunciation. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 335 MCW kHz, Jan 20 at 0714, BV, 25-watt ND beacon
at BatesVille, Arkansas; mixing with slightly stronger dash and YLD,
1000 watts at Chapleau, Ontario. Could no longer be confused with 336,
another BV in Québec, decommissioned; nor with our very own BV in
BartlesVille OK, since it`s allegedly on 201 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2174 monitoring: confirmed first
SWBC, UT Friday January 20 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S7 into Maryland SDR
with the noise blast for 14 seconds at the start; much better S9/+10
into Louisiana SDR.

Also confirmed Friday January 20 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, S8 with deep
fades to S3 direct but no jamming audible. Due to cutoffs early or no
signal previous weeks, I monitor the entire program which is intact
this week, and still on past 1600-1612+ with TOMBS; preceded by
Blalock the Blaster at 1500.

Also confirmed Friday January 20 at 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
Villa Estense, for first time in a longtime active on 918 kHz at
S9+27, slightly stronger signal than usual 1323 at S9+15, both VG with
only JBA traces of QRM. Nothing still on LW 207, into nearby Noale
SDR. Tuned in at 2127 to some unknown Anglo/American discussion about
economix, which inevitably is faded out incomplete at 2130 for ID as
``You are listening to medium wave`` and QSL address before WOR start.
Once running I hear a few hiccups but can`t tell where in the process
they interrupt; certainly beyond my esophagus. Next:

** U S A. 5890, Fri Jan 20 at 0705, S9+30 of unknown gospel huxter not
// TOMBS on 5850 WRMI. WWCR continues to claim on Jan 1 program sked
that #4 transmitter 5890 is NOT on the air M-F 0600-1300; with TOMBS
overnight only on Sat & Sun. This also repossiblizes the leapfrog

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 19 at 0727, S9+10 of dead air from R. Rebelde; all
RHC frequencies are off. It seems lately they have not been kept going
after 0700. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. The Other Side:

READ TODAY THE CUBA OF TOMORROW January 18, 2023 EMIGRATION

Those who left... are no longer building Cuba --- More than a quarter
of a million Cubans abandoned the island last year, and the vast
majority were young people, many of them highly educated.
RAFAELA CRUZ |La Habana --- Ruins in Havana. (Diario de Cuba)
[caption]

A simple walk through Havana — at the risk of twisting an ankle in a
hole in the sidewalk, or a skull fracture from a falling shard from a
balcony — is enough to appreciate the state of the country's physical
capital: its streets, factories and machines are crumbling, from
poverty. Cuba is falling apart.

But Cuba is also moving apart too, as if pieces of the island were
breaking off to float to more fertile shores, with more than a quarter
of a million Cubans leaving the island last year, the vast majority

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Jan 19 at 0729, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
again the only 9/kHz split detectable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR0

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Thu Jan 19 after 1600 UT, KUCO-FM with weekly
`Spotlite on the Arts` at its traditional time, interviews about
upcoming OKC performances, Kimberly Powell and guest about Mozart`s
Requiem this weekend. SOTA continues to be unshown on KUCO program
schedule, rather `Performance Today` M-F during this hour. I was
wondering what happened to it. Website also has nothing new about its
content. Jeff Hagy, new GM had been hosting it. For years before, it
was a remote from the OKC Museum of Art but apparently not any more.
Not necessarily for full hour, depending on number of guests, then
back to music (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U A E. 9840.106, Jan 19 at 0324, way off-frequency carrier with
flutter, S4/S6, maybe trace of music. Vietnam comes to mind as a
traditional skewed frequency, but EiBi & Aoki show that not on
``9840`` until 1000-2400. At this hour 0300-0500, it has to be BBC in
Arabic to ME via Al-Dhabbiya (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

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

** U S A. 9395 // 9455 // 4980, Jan 19 at 0328, Ted is preaching
during `WRMI Legends` on three frequencies at once; skedgrid shows
9395 added 03-04 UT M-F only. This thing is creeping later, also
reported 05-06 on 15770 instead of scheduled Israel Radio, which
presumably came via WRN as scheduled daily that hour. So much for a
rare temporary chance to hear KAN on SW; however, midnite propagation
on 15 MHz is problematic, and the other frequency 7730 remains
imaginary (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, Jan 19 at 0724, JBA carrier from R. Vanuatu, and a
slightly stronger one on 11835. Manuel Méndez and Ron Howard report it
was on 3945 plus harmonics before 0700 instead of 7260; probably due
to tropical cyclone Irene warnings, and Ron says open carriers from
all three were still on at 1526 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1470.028 approx., Jan 19 at 0734 UT, het upon 1470
stations. Nothing nearby in MWOffsets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
