![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** AZORES [and non]. 6114, Feb 28 at 0715, RTTY INTRUDER believed to be US Navy, is back. Not strong and altho abutting 6115 Nikkei Japan, USB tuning on 6115 escapes it. Lou Johnson, Georgia, keeps complaining that the RTTY QRMs WWCR after 0100 when it`s on 6115 until 0200. But WWCR is so blasting here that it would not be a problem in the unlikely event I ever wanted to listen to it. Still, RTTY, by the USG no less, has no biz inside the exclusive 49m SWBC band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11850, Feb 28 at 0229, RHC Spanish is S9+20 but JBM and suptorted; also with parasitic spur carriers on 11840 & 11860, the upper one QRMing jamming against nothing (else except maybe Yemen [non]). Meanwhile, 11760 is S9+20 distorted, 11670 S9+10 undermodulated. Somethings` always wrong at RHC. In the NASWA Flashsheet, Jerry Lenamon in Waco puts it thus about 15730 QRMing 15720 NZ: ``Only a handful of frequencies in use with over a hundred to choose from but the Cubans have to infringe. I think the Cubans would be much better off if they retired half of their transmitters in order to devote their obviously inadequate budget to the remaining equipment. I’ve heard it said that the Cuban government pretends to pay their workers and the workers pretend to work. Perhaps their equipment problems are a result of this`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** IRAN. 7380, Feb 28 at 0234, S9/+10 of dead air - or is it just barely modulated. Per Aoki and EiBi, can only be VIRI in Arabic via Zahedan at 0230-0530. HFCC shows 500 kW at 289 degrees for CIRAFs 38 & 39 = Arabia to Turkey, Egypt, Libya (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA. 5990 // 7410, UT Mon Feb 28 at 0239, lite jazz during the RRI Galbeni hour in French. Alan Roe`s Music on Shortwave says it`s `Les tubes du moment` on UT Mon & Tue while the 0230-0245 block contains other music every day except Fri. Tubes means hits in this sense, pour quoi? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15740, Feb 28 at 1921, S9+10 of open carrier. Obviously SOP from VOA Grimesland, warming up on a frequency other than the one about to start, i.e. 15730 JBA already in French from another site, in order to avoid override/collision. At 1929.5 the OC jumps to 15730 and Botswana probably just turned off. 1930 JIP music in French service; pause, cut to news about Ukraine. Same signal level as was on 15740. Rationale for making site switch in middle of French hour remains unknown. BTW, Mike Cooper reports: ``VOA English has a new program, "Flashpoint Ukraine," airing at 2105 UT weekdays. Here is the description from today's schedule: 16:05 - 16:30 [EST] FLASHPOINT UKRAINE: Russia and Ukraine hold talks as U.N. meets --- Ukraine demanded an immediate cease-fire and the withdrawal of Russian forces as it met with Russia. How the current war is impacting Europe and the plight of refugees as they struggle to cross the border to escape fighting. Episodes can be found here: https://www.voanews.com/z/6932 There is also an Apple podcast page: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/flashpoint-ukraine-voice-of-america/id1610018620 Presenter: Steve Miller`` Fortunately, 2105 is the only hour in English still transmitted from North Carolina, on 11720 as long as B21 lasts, and VG here off the back to mid-America, aimed away toward Africa. Only other English SW frequency registered this hour is 6195 São Tomé. Otherwise, VOA has been getting low ratings for its breaking news coverage. This hour had been `wasted` on rock/African music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed Sunday February 27 at 2101 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+10, no QRM but noisy, via nearby Noale SDR. Missed checking Sun Feb 27 at 2330 on WRMI 5950; anyone hear it? Confirmed UT Monday February 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S9+15 into Missouri SDR. Also confirmed at 0256 UT Mon Feb 28 the 0230 on WRN N America webcast. Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 28 at 0425, S9/S7 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 minus 28v Hz into Knoxville = 6159.972v, just as I am mentioning the `Taste of Radio Angela` which is on 4790 right now and have mainly been monitoring, WOR ending at 0429 so must have started on time. Next: 0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 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 Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support. One may contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US$ , to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check in US$ on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, USA (Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** U S A. 4790, UT Mon Feb 28 at 0300, WBCQ has signed on after IS & ID loop, initiating `Radio Angela`, with intro `A taste of` show. S9/+10 fading up and down and constant CODAR swishes covering from above and below, so it`s unpleasant listening direct to here. First part is about classical music which will be the entire 03-05 program henceforth on UT Mondays: unfortunately at same time as `Encore`! on WRMI 5950 at 0300-0400 - which tonight I have recorded off an SDR for later listening. By 0314 we hear Marion from her Attic; 0339 Radio Ohne Namen, etc., etc. Radio Angela is deliberately not being webcast, as the point is to promote music and drama on SW. But I`ll have to use remotes further east to avoid the CODAR. Is WBCQ stuck on this 60mb frequency, no matter what? They are certainly aware of the CODAR. With perhaps the most innovative programming in store, yet by any objective standard, it`s WBCQ`s worst frequency; as long as 3265 is not even active: least coverage reach and facing most noise level which will only worsen into spring and summer storm seasons. The detailed convoluted Radio Angela schedule for the remainder of Standard Time is to be distributed shortly by Bill Tilford, but still not showing at wbcq.com which displays nothing but Brother Scare on 4790, despite being withdrawn weeks ago. An advance look for the first night, UT Tuesday March 1: 0300 `Marion`s Attic`; 0400 `Bluegrass State of Mind` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, Mon Feb 28 at 1540, something in Spanish, a clip inside AWR Wavescan on WRMI. Since WOR was replaced on Fri at 1530, I was wondering whether other shows in the DX/media strip were also affected; but not, still there among some three dozen weekly WS airings on WRMI. Next on Tue: SW Radiogram beepery (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2019 UT February 28

![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** CUBA. 15140, Sun Feb 27 at 1614, RHC weekly Esperanto is JBA, S7-S9 undermodulated; seems // 11760 much stronger S9+10 but distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ETHIOPIA [non]. 15330, Feb 27 at 1613, HOA music, talk, S8-S9; EiBi says it`s Radiyoni Dirree Shaggar at 1600-1630 in Somali via FRANCE, but WRTH 2022 has Raadiyoonii Dirree Shaggar from Pennsylvania via France in OROMO. I was in the area looking for TOMBS cult via Bulgaria on new 15335, reported by Ivo as of Feb 19 at 1500-1800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.072, Feb 27 at 1616, African language dialog, S6-S9, way off frequency, since it`s VOA Pinheira, in Kirundi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Feb 27 at 0740 UT, TOR, 50-watt non-direxional beacon at Torrington, Wyoming, under but mixing with FBY, 25 watts at Fairbury, Nebraska, which is one of my regulars. I would say that despite being only second-adjacent, NE is my #1 state for NDBs. WY is also 2nd-adjacent, only CO between us. Torrington is conveniently in the SE corner, near Scottsbluff NE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: due to snoozery, missed checking Sunday Feb 27 at 1330-1400 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292, Germany, 9670; did anyone hear it?

![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer search, Feb 27 at 0022: 13130 S4-S6 with flutter; 13020 JBA Chinese. NO others detected below 15, 14, 13 or 11 MHz, but some suspicious inside 22m band, not trying to sort them out from legits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5040, Feb 27 at 0018, S9+25 of dead air in English from RHC. At 0019 other frequencies in music all // presumably Spanish service: 13740 S9+5, 11760, 11860 JBM S9/+15. By 0046, 5040 is modulating but // same plus 9650, so Spanish not English on both 5040 & 13740. Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5990, Feb 27 at 0041, CRI relay in Spanish is S9+35/45 but just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EAST TURKISTAN. 9590, Feb 27 at 0034 poor in Latin American Spanish with soft background music. Not a bit of Chinese accent, just like CRI English which sounds as if it`s American - until you hear what they are saying. This does mention China. Scheduled 2300-0257 for S America via Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** THAILAND. 13750, Feb 27 at 0020, HSK9 in English to N America, S4-S7 with heavy flutter. Seldom if ever listenable here: too far west for the ENAm beam, too far east for the WNAm? Grimesland would do a lot better, duh, than the USAGM Udon Thani site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Feb 26 at 2337 dipping into the VOT English Saturday broadcast, which is not off the air, VG via UTwente with a recipe; but TRT`s AVC surges annoying background hum during pauses. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. 2341 Turkish Cuisine; 2347 multi-lingual ID loop filler. Off in time for weekly Sunday The Mighty KBC from 2400 via Nauen, Germany ex-East; over there a bit of QRM from the ChiCom in East Turkistan but probably not so much over here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 12888.5 CW, Feb 27 at 0024, VVV marker from KPH with QSX frequencies. VG standout signal from California, with hardly anything else left on this marine band. Maybe Korea South but not heard now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. I`m told the Friday morning airing of WORLD OF RADIO on WRMI 9955, which was missing Feb 25 at 1530, will resume after DST starts, March 18 at 1430 UT instead. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday February 27 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S9+25/30 direct but not ``solid`` sounding. Also confirmed UT Sunday Feb 27 starting at 0454.7 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, VG S9+12 into nearby Warrenton SDR. Next: 1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0400vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 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 Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support. One may contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US$ , to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check in US$ on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, USA (Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Feb 27 after 0100, WTWW-2 $ tereo webcast of TOUTA, but music at tune in is only mono; ends at 0150, into rock. `Encore` missing at 0100 from WRMI System F on 5850 & 7780 due to some mishap, so default to `TOUTA` no problem except I`m also missing TRSW blues shows on 5950 in the Saturday evening music glut. Better luck we hope for next `Encore` UT Monday 0300 on 5950 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. +6100-6130+, Feb 27 at 0044, WWCR is splattering more than 15 kHz either side of S9+50 6115. Something`s noxious in Nashville. Not to mention America`s most obnoxious SW broadcaster, Alex Jones, about whom CNN has been promoting this: CNN Special Report CNNHD - Sun, 2/27, 9:00 PM [CST] 1 hr "The Alex Jones Story: Megaphone for Conspiracy" New, 2/27/2022, News, Topical, Current Events CNN's Drew Griffin examines the rise of conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, drawing on exclusive footage and interviews with former employees and followers to track how his rhetoric moved from the fringes to the mainstream of American politics`` --- Mainstream? Let`s not concede that to him! Original time and known repeats, here strictly UT dates and times: Mon Feb 28 at 0300 & 0700, Sat March 5 at 0200 --- maybe: all subject to bumping for Breaking News. I wonder if the show will ever even mention SW? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, Feb 27 at 0320, no signal from WRNO into Missouri SDR. I kept intending to recheck since first noticed absent Feb 18 at 0722, and I can`t find any reports of 7505 since (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6017.10, Feb 27 at 0042, JBA carrier, not a local birdie. Probably that Colombian pirate, as in EiBi but not Aoki: ``6017 2230-0615 irr CLM Organ. Radial El Prado S CLM`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6920-, Feb 27 at 0015, only pirate activity is JBA music slightly on low side, signature of R. Pushka (Rifle), the Russian ethnic pirate. Slightly better at 0045, S6 of undermodulated music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9560.4, Feb 27 at 0032, JBA talk in Asian? language but then disappears. Unseems spur out of strong 9565 Martí, and no match on 9569.6. Sked per Aoki on 9560 until 0030 is BBC English via Singapore; and at 00-01 CRI English via Beijing 572: neither seems likely. But wait: EiBi says the BBC language is Burmese (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0516 UT February 27

Saturday, February 26 2022
![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) Note: last report was for Feb 25-26 not 26-26 as missubjected
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Feb 26 at 1523, no signal from LRA36 into four Brasilian SDRs this Saturday, probably no-show, tho it might have come and gone by now, usually at least until 1530. Have seen no other reports of it today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 9666.728, Feb 26 at 0737, R Voz Missionária back on tonight, S9-S6 but usual VG modulation with songs that sound more secular than sacred without being able to follow the lyrix. Very slow upward drifting trend continues. Last time I measured it was Feb 1 on 9666.561, or plus 6.68 Hz per diem on average, but it has not been steady (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 9700, Feb 26 at 0735, RHC English still on here at S9+30 but no others. Even 5040 is off by 0742 leaving a JBA carrier, presumably Vanuatu. Something`s always wrong wRHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. Feb 26 I have spent several hours monitoring remotes for Dengê Welat and/or jamming. 9525 at 0504 via UTwente, S7-S9, martial music jammer like yesterday when it cut off at 0530* but today keeps going until 0600*. DW itself is again on 7350. 11530 at 1525 via UTw: jammer with same kind of martial music as last nights; while DW programming is on 11540, with some BBC-like sounders. At 1547 a brief clip in English. Off at 1559*. 9525 retuned to and at *1600 it seems to be just coming on with DW music and talk. 11530 via UTw still jamming against nothing with wailing and music, but off at 1608*. Meanwhile recheck the skeds to get bearings, but neither seems correct today: EiBi as of Feb 16: DW 11530 at 06-17 via Moldova, 17-19 France. Jammer 11530 at 06-19 via Emirler, but also ``anti-Kurdish tape`` at 06-16 on 11540. Also earlier: 7350 at 0330-0600 DW via France. Aoki as of Feb 23: DW 7350 via France at 0330-0558, no jam; 9525 France 1558-2200 with jamming at 05-21. 11530 at 13-15 Moldova, 15-16 France, no jam. 11540 Moldova at 06-13, no jam listed. Observer Bulgaria had new DW relays via Secretbrod/Kostinbrod as of Feb 23, but none of these heard on Feb 26: 07-14 15285 unchecked, 14-17 9480, 17-19 9550, 19-22 6180; 22-24 5945. Back to what I do hear: 9525 at 1614, S8-S9 to Ireland SDR; 1630 abrupt switch from music to talk; more music past 1700. It`s notable that in all my hours of listening I never perceive a Dengê Welat ID or even mention in passing of either word, tho possibly somewhere in there and missed. I do hear Ukraine mentioned occasionally. 11530, at 1702, jam music against nothing via Ireland 9550, at 1709, no Bulgarian signal to Ireland. 9525 at 1730+, DW music via UTwente; occasional brief OTH radar clix such as at 1735, 1747, 1802, 1952. 9525 at 1739, I am shocked to hear the VOT interval signal tune, so is this really Turkey instead of DW? But this is a different version of the song with vocal lyrix. 11530 at 1741, jammer still on with music, crowd yelling. 1802 during martial music, speech over PA with reverb; heard via Ireland 9525 music before and after 1800 but YL talk at 1802. UTw stops at 1830 but I reboot as it had displayed 900 instead of max 750 users. 1835-1928 UT, I`m out paying exorbitant ever-rising cost of PO Box; and lunch. UTwente now displays around 1460 users, constantly fluxuating. 9525 at 1928, DW music still via UTw. 11530 at 1929, jammer is now off into Ireland; nor on 11540. 6180 at 1933, another Bulgarian frequency absent into Ireland. Also at 2045, nor 9480 which I think I also checked earlier. 9525 at 1935, Ireland now hears both DW and JBA under, the jammmusic, finally on same frequency; but at UTw the two are mixing almost even level. Quite a cacophony at 2055 with both in music, but by 2105 only one is left on both remotes, I think DW. At 2202, via UTw, no activity on any of the mentioned DW or jammer frequencies, not even 5945 Bulgaria. Now UTwente shows ~1700 users! Must have expanded its capacity with huge demand thanks to Putin. Unfortunately there is no SWBC, let alone in English, from Ukraine or Russia, but one can try to hear MW such as 400 kW UR1 on 549. As discussed in the WOR iog, Ukrainian TV and radio can be accessed online. Previously scheduled English segments seem to have been suspended (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 26 at 0744 UT, PN, 25-watt NDB at Ponca City is still off as it has been since Feb 23 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday February 26 at 0230 on WRMI 9395, S9+10 direct; weakening into noise level by 0254 to S5-S8; while to UTwente at 0258, S8/S9 yet way off the NNW beam.

![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** BRAZIL. 9666v, Feb 25 at 0735, NO signal from RVM, normally always there overnight as it drifts upward toward 9667. Must be off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, Feb 25 at 0733, S9+30 of dead air in English on RHC; 6060 also still on air, but S9+20/10 of DA except for some hum. Also still on at 0743 is 5040 in Spanish, S9+20, too bad for Vanuatu. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 9525.005, Feb 25 at 0406, via UTwente, S9+5/15 of martial choral music with few announcements. At first I expected Dengê Welat as previously scheduled here, but conclude it must be the Turkish jammer. It also has a slight squeal which is a defect of at least one Emirler transmitter, tho certainly not the only such station. Still going at 0424; past 0500 weakening some until cut off at 0530*. 7350, Feb 25 at 0409, mostly talk in presumed Kurdish, really Dengê Welat here now as scheduled 0330-0600 via Issoudun, FRANCE. Mentions Ukraine and Russia. No jamming but ACI from 7355 Martí in Spanish, even at UTwente. Meanwhile nothing on 9550, one of four new DW relays via Bulgaria per Ivo, that one only at 1700-1900. EiBi shows DW and Turkish jammer on 9525 both at 1600-2100 only; while Aoki shows 9525 jamming not until *0500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.016, Feb 25 from 2301, VOT English is VG S9+35 into UTwente. It`s Friday so I have to decide whether to listen to this or Spainglés on 9690 - billboard there says feature will be about ILO, which sounds pretty boring, onward to Ankara. Partial notes for the hour: 2312 the COVID 19 PSA, with good advice but *still* claiming that ``a vaccine is yet to be found``! At 2328 `Feeling Supreme`, this episode about tachycardia, fortunately a word I can recognize despite the heavily-accented YL. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler: transmission breaks off in the middle of it, 2329*-*2332 by when she is talking about remedies such as lavender, cinnamon. May I suggest further reading about tachycardia first such as what Mayo Clinic has to say. 2344 the outro for `Did You Know That?` about whatever I will knever know. Then the 2-minute multi-lingual ID loop filler; 2346 sign-off enumerating in rather jumbled order the English times and frequencies; announcer obviously not understanding what he is reading, e.g. ``in the 49 meter band and on 6125...`` The ``and`` does not belong since that implies they are separate things. Also still claims the 22-23 and 03-04 broadcasts are recorded, i.e. the summer not winter timings. Something`s always awry at Ankara. Another version admits that all the airings after 1330? are repeats so don`t expect Breaking News. Then into IS loop but cuts off air at 2352.7* before any German. Uncovering the CCCCCCI which had been just an undercurrent from Xinjiang PBS, standard denunciation. Thruout VOT there was breakup/crackling more than once a minute, not clear whether problem at transmitter or UTwente receiver or in between. Since it`s still happening to the ChiCom, we can now rule out an Emirleric cause (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed first airings UT Friday February 25 at 0130 on WRMIs: UTwente maxed out at 750 users, unavailable, but 7780 S9+15 into Maryland SDR; 5850 S9+25/30 into Missouri SDR. Also confirmed UT Fri Feb 25 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, S9+10/20 into Boa Vista, Brasil SDR, S9 into Knoxville, both with jamming ACI from 5980 unless narrowed. NOT confirmed Fri Feb 26 at 1530 on WRMI 9955; gospel music instead at 1554 check direct. Without notice, but WOR still appears on the program skedgrid, along with 5 other DX/Media programs at 1530 every day except Sat TOMBS Sabbath. Are they gone too? This strip only started circa December 10. NOT confirmed either Fri Feb 25 at 1915 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria. No signal at all into Carlow, Eire SDR while UTwente is still maxed out. This 19-20 UT transmission was missing already Feb 18, a 3rd Fri when WOR would have been pre-empted anyway, a fluke? But Feb 25, we see that 7290 has disappeared completely without notice from the IRRS/NEXUS-IBA schedules -- at least the days that will load, not including Thu, Sat, Sun. Are the other few IRRS SW segments gone too? With nothing but MW 1323 still added to streaming daily at 18-22 UT including the WOR times of Fri 1915, Fri 2130, and presumably Sun 2100; the only SW still exhibited is 15400 at 1600-1630 for Oromo National Media. 1323 monitoring at nearby Noale SDR Fri Feb 25, S9+5/10: 1901, usual Feature Story News in progress, 1905 UN News, 1908 music fill --- generally atop German from Romania, but at 1910 AM Italia fades down and Romania up; by 1915, AM Italia redominates with IRRS ``SW``! ID and right into WOR 2127, confirmed. Also confirmed Fri Feb 25 at 2130 on 1323, S9+10 with little QRM after Scottish music and IRRS address. Does not seem any stronger than before but this vague claim of increased power for Ukraine, a notice Feb 25 from Ron Norton via Alan Pennington, BDXC-UK: ``Hello There from NEXUS-IBA and IRRS in Milano, Italy! You have undoubtedly heard the latest news about the Russian invasion of Ukraine today. It has almost continuous coverage on Radio and TV in Europe as of this morning, and it makes everyone worried about the consequences for European stability. Just in case you hear from someone interested in Russia and Ukraine in these difficult moments, you should know that we have increased our power on 1323 kHz, and we can reach these regions with a fantastic signal also on AM/Medium Wave. We increased our special news coverage, adding repeats of the most informative and inspirational programs in English from 7 PM to 11 PM Central European Time to support displaced people and cover the latest events. On AM/Medium Wave 1323 kHz, we broadcast daily from 19:00-23:00 CET...`` Well, I doubt it reach Ukraine very well as long as Romania be in the way, but that closes earlier than 2100 UT. Next WORs: 0230 UT Saturday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2030vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0530] 1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0400vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 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 Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support.

(7490.1v), UT Sat Feb 26 at 0100, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW` --- soon recognized as a rerun since starts with ``X-rated pictures of my wife``, ``in a bad mood all day``, and ``as in Ted Nugent movie (?), open windows and yell `I`m mad as hell and not going to take it any more``` ... We`ve heard all this before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5810.43-USB, Feb 25 at 0740, 2-way in colloquial Spanish; cambio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0119 UT February 26
