** GUAM. 15665, Feb 24 at 1538, VP S5/S6 talk, intonation sorta
Germanic? KSDA registered at 1530-1600 only, due west in Kan language
= Kannada for S Asia (Glenn Hauser, OK,WOR)

** GUAM. 15530.040, Thu Feb 24 at 1539, off-frequency in unknown
language. KSDA scheduled this semihour only on Thu & Fri only in Bod
dialect of Tibetan, other days English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 24 at 0740 UT, PN, 25-watt NDB at Ponca
City, is OFF again; sporadic. It might make sense to turn on only when
incoming flight requests, except 25 watts is hardly significant for
power saving (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TIBET [non]. 12125, Feb 24 at 1542, S9/+10 in tonal Asian language:
scheduled RFA in Bod dialect of Tibetan, this hour only, 100 kW at 296
degrees from TINIAN. Amazingly good here way offbeam, no CNR1 jamming
unless really a jammer not in Chinese (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non?]. 15735, Feb 24 at 1536, S7-S9 in English about Ukraine;
new unlisted BBCWS frequency also reported by others until 1600*. HFCC
shows Tashkent was registered at 1300-1530, but this is probably
Woofferton. Look out for more BBCWS additions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11620, Feb 24 at 1544, algo VG but off at 1545* before I
can monitor further. Nothing scheduled at this hour after KSDA at
1400-1500. IIRC, 11620 used to be an All India Radio channel but not
listed now. Searching EiBi and Aoki on -1545 can find a number of
stations and transmissions on other frequencies ending at this odd
hour, so maybe a new frequency for one of: FEBA Radio Pakistan in
Pashto via Moldova; NHK Urdu via UAE; TWR Somali, and Arabic via
Eswatini; Bangladesh Betar in Hindi; KTWR in Korean (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed Feb 23 at 1522 tune-in: both
Brasília SDRs are offline; at Pardinho is JBA, but Campo gets S2 from
LRA36: music and talk; 1528 ``Nacional Antártida Argentina, en todo el
país, la radio pública`` --- I assume they think this is relayed all
over Argentina on the Nacional network: is that true? Music and
talkbits alternate, frequent IDs. 1533 ``Radio Nacional Arcángel San
Gabriel`` ID; 1536 ``Nacional, la radio pública``. 1541 something
about Poland. 1543 email, song mentioning Esperanza but not the
themesong, never heard today. 1546 LRA36 & RNASG IDs.

BTW, it`s 10 degrees F in Enid, colder than Esperanza? Yes, much! See
https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/antarctica/esperanza-base
checked at 1740 UT, it`s a balmy +40 F there, melting. But at South
Pole it`s minus 50 F, whew! And guess from which direxion the wind is
blowing? North! Back to my logging:

1555 LRA36 & RNASG IDs. 1558 email, historical talk. Now it`s peaking
at S3. 1601 ID, efemérides, = historical/anniversary items, something
from the 1800s, more likely about continental Argentina than this
outpost. 1612 email, 15476. 1614 song with birdchirps. 1616 NAA, LRP
IDs. 1620 ID, song. 1623 the SDR times out after one hour. Check
Corral one in Argentina, JBA; nothing at LU4AA; 1625 nothing at west
Iceland; 1626 nothing at Montevideo. Maybe have just signed off, as
it`s high time. 1627 Pardinho check: only S8 noise level! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Feb 23 at 0718, only RHC still on but S9+10 of nothing
but hum. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.608+, Feb 23 at 2124, R. Cairo, S9+30 into UTwente with
extreme distortion, presumed English, totally unreadable. Something
remains egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 23 at 0553, definite carrier already,
surely R. Kiribati a sesquihour after London sunset, rather than
anything TA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185-, Feb 23 at 0713, XEPPM with song in English about
monkeys with droning bassline, S9/+10 and better modulation than
usual. Eclectic music format and sometimes listenable. Always slightly
off-frequency-minus but not measured, compared e.g. to 6155 Austria.
Last report Feb 13 from Gianni Serra, Italy, put it on 6184.97 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 23 at 0551, PN, 25-watt NDB at PoNca
City is back on after latest outage; was still off during day Feb 22
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 23 at 2307 after the news, REE token triweekly
English semihour N American frequency is not off the air, others not
checked as I`m tuned for content via VG Maryland remote: by Amy Egan
about Rosalía de Castro, Galician poet who promoted the Gallego
language which had been denigrated. Her collexion `Cantares Gallegos`
also set to music with some examples. Interview clips in Castilian
handled the right way, minimizing voice-overing into English (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.017+, Feb 23 at 2300, VOT English is not off the air
today, VG via UTwente, but at first I`m mainly listening to
simulSpain. ToH timesignals about 2 seconds apart. 2315 plays same
commentary as yesterday by the PhD student at Exeter about ``US
provoked Russia in order to maintain its global primacy`` --- huh??
Enough of that. Yet I get the impression that Turkey is siding with
Ukraine. Recheck 2354, already in IS, this time with English IDs,
rapid SAH and off at 2356* before it can switch to German, uncovering
PBS Xinjiang, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide
against Uyghurs and other Moslems. If I were listening from within N
America, there would be less CCCCCCI from it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.607, Feb 22 at 2156, R. Cairo very strong into UTwente,
slightly less suptorted than usual but still unlistenable. Something`s
always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GREECE. 9420, Feb 22 at 2314, VOG is back on after missing a few
days, making us fear it`s gone for good. S9+10/15 with music into
UTwente, but lower modulation level than Türkiye 5960. It was first
reported reactivated today at 1945 by Richard Langley, NB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.006, Feb 22 at 2317 via UTwente, VOT English
is on, but no guarantee it really started by 2300! S9+25/30 with
music, good modulation, 2318 COVID PSA; 2319 2-minute multilingual ID
reel filler; 2321 ``Wavelength Commentary`` penned by ---, PhD
candidate at University of Exeter(?), titled ``US provoked Russia in
order to maintain its global primacy`` --- huh?? Enough of that. 2348
recheck IS plays after generic sign-off for several English times.
2356 fade-down IS and restart, now with German IDs interspersed. 2400
5+1 timesignal with that from CCCCCCI JBA underneath; sign-on in
German for the 1230 outsending which really is supposed to be on SW,
15270. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Before next recheck
2410, VOT is off uncovering PBS Xinjiang with CNR1 in imperialist
Mandarin, land of ChiCom genocide, ``re-education`` and slave labor
among native Uyghurs and other Moslems of East Turkistan (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.606+, Feb 21 at 2107 no signal yet into UTwente, but by
2116 recheck it`s on, S9+30 in suptorted English, totally unusable.
Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY [non]. 15215, Feb 21 at 1544, JBA carrier, presumed AWR
Guam or Sri Lanka, both sites listed, scheduled until 1600.

15215, Mon Feb 21 from 1555 I am monitoring via Maryland SDR for Radio
Amrum/Öömrang, annual one-hour broadcast via FRANCE aimed at New York
where there are more Frisian expats than on the islands themselves.
Cuts on abruptly at *1600, VG S9+10/20 but with constant humwhine
undertone for entire hour. Sign-on in German, then 1601 English with
full details as 500 kW, crediting backers by name, coördinated with
annual bonfire ceremony at this very hour. 1602 into interview of
schoolteacher with frequent summaries in English of what has been
said, at approx.: 1609.8, 1614.5, 1620.5, 1622. I think this is not
the same recording as last year; at least refers once to what happened
in 2020.

1626 full ID again in German with telefon numbers, and English, same
as at sign-on. Announcer is Gerhard ---. 1628 different interview
starts with Mr and Mrs Peters, mentions Corona, and ``ankles`` more
than once in English summaries, meaning uncles? At 1630 a quick check
of direct reception to deep North America: S9/+10. More English pauses
at 1637.5, 1639.8; 1644.5 about the Frisian language being taught in
schools there two hours per week; 1650.5.

1656 full ID again, including two phone numbers, first of which is
046822688. 1658 modulation stops, still humwhine carrier and now also
JBA warbling like jamming, until cut off at 1700.3*. An unique annual
tradition continues. Despite the contact info given, apparently no
QSLing, other than proxy by MBR transmission provider. Following my
imminent alert to the WOR iog, widely reported across our continent
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GREECE. 9420, Feb 21 at 2107, no signal from VOG into UTwente.
Others checking lately have not been hearing it either. We fear it may
be an earlier permanent QRT than expected. Still nothing at 0037 Feb
22 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15530.040, Mon Feb 21 at 1544, JBA off-frequency carrier.
KSDA is scheduled 1530-1600 in Tibetan except days 12347 in English =
Sun/Mon/Tue/Wed/Sat (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also GERMANY [non]

** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 21 at 2325, no signal direct from VOT English.
Must have come on way late, for at 2341 it`s S9+30, VG modulation into
UTwente with that COVID PSA, music. Wonderful IS playing by 2352; 2356
fades audio down audiblizing the CCCCCCI; then restarting IS with
German IDs interspersed twice a minute. Pause at 0000 Feb 22,
timesignal mixing out of step with East Turkistan, standard
denunciation; s/on in German with detailed irrelevant satellite
parameter info. Not until 0004 do the Nachrichten start. Announcer has
poor mumbly enunciation. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Still going at 0014 into music, and 0022 check in German. No telling
how long this will last --- until the sleepyrator upwake. Bonus not
likely to last the entire hour, too bad: ahh, Schluß at 0024*
uncovering imperialist Mandarin from Xinjiang.

BTW, the guy who runs the jammer against Dengê Welat is trying to
control how people speaking other languages pronounce Turkey; the
Germans are all set with their facility for umlauting! Next step:
resurrecting the Ottoman Empire? No, that won`t do: footstools!

``Goodbye Turkey, hello Türkiye
Turkey is rebranding its internationally recognised name as “Türkiye”.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the new name “represents and
expresses the culture, civilisation and values of the Turkish nation
in the best way”. But the change is about more than phonetic
pronunciation. BBC Monitoring’s Ilgin Karlidag explains.

This is reminiscent of Ivory Coast insisting that even in English it`s
to be called Côte d`Ivoire, substituting one colonial language for
another. But how should we say it in these EiBi languages?

UNIDENTIFIED. 332 MCW kHz, Feb 21 at 0715 UT, normally a mix here
between 1000 watt dash and QT Thunder Bay, Ontario, and 400 watt
weaker but closer IC Wichita KS. But the latter JBA call now sounds
more like FC. Nonesuch currently listed on 332, 333 or 334, but RNA
classaxe does show an FCY on 332, 25 watts at Forrest City, Arkansas,
last reported in 2005y. Maybe miskeying IC or confused by mixing with
something else. An N added to an I would sound like an F (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
