** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Saturday June 11 at first check 1423, no signal yet from LRA36 into Bs As remote, nor at 1453 vs S3/S4 noise level on it; and still not at 1500. 1508 checking Campo, Brasil remote; 1510 Brasília is now getting it JBA S1/S2, so back to Bs As where it`s much better, S6/S7. Has just signed on late as often haphazard. 1511 Antártida themesong. 1514 canned ID as ``Radio Arcángel San Gabriel, Base Esperanza, su compañía``, omitting ``Nacional`` unlike all the others, song. 1518 the YL DJs finally come on ``live``, greeting listeners to sexto programa of 2022 season, i.e. the same one we heard on Wednesday. One of the YLs has a noticeably higher-pitched voice. Geo coordinates -- they always mention that. Base was founded on 17 December 1952. Current clima temp was: minus 1 C, warm enough to caminar = walk around outside.
Abruptly cut off air 1522* until cut back on at *1531 during song. 1536 another new? canned ID by OM voice. 1537 efemérides = this week in history including 1980? first TA flight from Bs As to Auckland NZ. Then about Maldivas: not an hour can go by without discussing those islands that Argentina is obsessed with. 1545 song. 1547 canned ID, acknowledging listeners in Italy, Argentina, Colombia. 1551 contact info. Signal is peaking now, VG, so that my fluency with Argentine Spanish rather than reception is the limiting factor. 1553 a bit more Malvinas history. Who would win a referendum among inhabitants, I ask? 1600 music. 1606 canned ID, now fading a bit, repeat temp as minus one. Says today`s = June 8 amanecer was 10:18 local = 1318 UT. Primary meaning of amanecer is sunrise, but could be loosely confused with totally different dawn, really alborada. gaisma.com agrees about 1320 for SR, while sunset would be 1813 UT; she also mentioned SS but could not catch it. 1611 contact info again; 1617 citing significant dates for military or geopolitcal events: 1952, 1954, 1957, 1961, 1964. Signal now S5/S9 caused not by fading but by USB modulation. 1628 mentions ``próximo programa`` so probably about to close, song. 1633 ID and staff list, ``Nacional nos une``, music until cut off at 1635*. Typical clumsy operation. Left it on until 1700 in background, but no more. Nor any sign of an 1800 repeat as alleged, no signal at 1830 check. Once again I lament the lame crutch they employ, citing so much historical info rather than what is going on *now* or recently at Esperanza or other outposts. FWIW, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanza_Base says ``Research projects include: glaciology, seismology, oceanography, coastal ecology, biology, geology, and limnology`` but with no details at all. Gary Pence, Dallas, tells me, ``Hi Glenn, I guess they just went QRT mid song. I was listening thru LU4AA as well. QRT at 1635z. Heard also on KFS Halfmoon Bay, CA. Heard one S unit above an S4 noise floor, best between 1530 and 1600z`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 9677.526V, June 11 at 0631, RVM with wavering carrier and much weaker than usual, S3/S4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 9700, June 11 at 0627, surprise! RNZP reactivated and *also* // 11725! Yes, they do have two transmitters but one normally only standby. Certainly not the expected new #3 which may not be ready for service until a year from now. Both are S9+10/20, slightly less selective fading on 11. No sign of Romania in German on 9700, but would have just closed at 0627, clashing until then? Playing song outroed as ``No, No, No``; would that be the Saturday night request show? Nothing about 9700 on RNZP websked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, June 11 at 0500-0508, UR1 via WRMI, `Ukraine: Security Issue` with YL#1 - they never give their names - for Day 107 of Russia`s war, vs ``invincibility of Ukrainian army``. Russians are trying to find a place to hold a referendum in ``temporarily occupied territories`` but can`t. VG into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2142 monitoring: This bit in last report I said 918 only, but meant 1323 only; fixed: WOR 2142 also confirmed June 10 at 2036 the 2030 on AM Italia 1323 only, S9 into Noale. And I should have added: TUC Radio opens with seabird calls; at 1808, 1323 had some intermittent 2-way QRM, likely ham transmitter overloading the Kiwi. Trouble is, most of them are located at ham stations nearby to transmitters. Also later, some ACI from other MW signals on 1314 & 1332. Also confirmed UT Saturday June 11 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+5/15 into Maryland SDR. Also confirmed UT Saturday June 11 from 0359.8 on WBCQ R. Angela, 5130, S9+10/15 to Maryland SDR. Tuned in earlier from 0333, blues music and conversation in English, yet it really is `From the Isle of Music` [Cuba]. Also confirmed Sat June 11 after 1600 on WRN webcast to N America. Next, besides another WRN webbing at 1930: At 1920 15770 is playing world music fill, and 1930 now filled by NC gospel huxter, so we must conclude that WOR airing on WRMI is definitely canceled. Next: 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0430] 1324vUT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy 2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [to be canceled? still June 5] 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html For these noncommercial services, voluntary financial support is much appreciated, thanks this week to generous Doug Brown, London ON, who sent a Florida US$ check to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA, and comments: ``Thanks, Glenn, for continuing to promote the medium of short wave radio at a time when many are saying the Internet had made SW obsolete. Online streaming is no more like radio than intravenous feeding is like fine dining. Authoritarian governments can control the Internet but they can`t control RF propagation`` One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat June 11 at 0050, tune in WBCQ webcast for `AAAWWW` just as he is concluding a look at Free Radio Weekly with my Oklahoma CB pirate report on 27185v, but he does not go into any usable details. So we know it`s new, as this FRW has just been published. Of the three rotating editors, Harold Frodge is most prompt in getting it out ASAP after the 0000 UT Saturday deadline. At 0053 I quickly check SW frequencies via Maryland remote: besides 7490v, it`s also on 6160v and 5130, but not on 3265 like a biweek ago. 5130 is the ``Radio Angela`` outlet otherwise not starting until *0155. So I wonder what will happen between 01 & 02? Tonight it does stay on with rock music at 0105 & 0128 chex. As UB frequently outpoints, that hour and others beyond the Angela block are for sale. This week, at least, the 7490 webcast cuts AW off for an AW canned ID in order to join Hal Turner on time at 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 97.3, June 11 at 1748 UT on caradio bandscanning for possible Es, this relatively open frequency briefly utters ``Q97, 97.3`` --- geez, I already know what frequency I`m tuned to; a true ID with what makes a station unique, like its *callsign* would be more helpful, if not the Facility Number. Uplooked later on WTFDA DB, including various varieties of how to punxuate Q97, comes up with one in E Texas, two in TN, but this must be fringe area from here: KKJQ, Garden City KS, 100 kW ERP, 244 m HAAT (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1938 UT June 11

** CHINA. 18900, June 10 at 0426, JBA carrier; and 18970 Chinese S2/S4. Only activity on this SWBC band, CNR1 jammers against Sound of Hope; in fact the only two listings in EiBi and Aoki. See also UNIDENTIFIED for many more on 17 & 21 MHz bands (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11850, June 10 at 0433, RHC Spanish, S9+30/40 but very suptorted. This transmitter always flanked by plus/minus 10 kHz spur carriers on 11840 & 11860, but now with supersignal fundamental, also detect further multiples of JBA spurs on: 11830 & 11870; and even weaker, 11820 & 11880. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 9790, June 10 at 0438, S9+35/50 of dead air except for some hum, atop French direct from RFI, which surges when Cuba fades. 9790 is the CRI relay supposed to be in Cantonese 04-05 after English 03-04. Total failure! Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. Even worse, 9790 can be left on past 0600 as recently (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6165, June 10 at 0443, RHC in wrong language, Spanish instead of English, leaving only 6000 for that. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 11790, June 10 at 0431, S7/S9 Swahili: RFI direct at 0430-0500, off the back to here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 11825, June 10 at 0432, God stuff in English, S8/S9, i.e. African Pathways Radio on MWV. See also UNIDENTIFIED [and non] below (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5, June 10 at 2106 UT, country music on this CB channel, S9+25 steady and obviously local. Now some CBer has graduated to being a SWBC pirate; probably the same one previously blasting 27185v with carriers and tones. 2110 end of song and this turns out to be relay of local KOFM and is //103.1, as YL DJ starts interviewing Dan Schiedel [Shy-dell], exec director of United Way of NW Oklahoma, in Enid. Seems they are promoting a golf tournament. He used to be head of PBS in Oklahoma, OETA; then retired a few years ago, and we were surprised when he wound up in Enid. Still going with music at 2143. There was skip on busy CB channels 27025 & 27085, so KOFM relay may well have been DXable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 28, June 10 circa 1505 UT, some tropo enhancement on a few BAD VHF and UHF, channels, only this decoding as ION ``44`` which is: KTPX-TV Okmulgee. Rabbitears.info shows it 1000 kW ERP direxional NE for Tulsa market, hardly suitable for us, but commonly seen with a bit of trophelp (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SUDAN [non]. 11650, June 10 at 0430, S9/+20 African language, SSOB, then that wonderful ``Radio Dabanga`` singing ID. Via MADAGASCAR at 0430-0500, following Radio Tamazuj for Sudan South at 0330-0430; both 250 kW at 335 degrees, carrying on well to N America far beyond (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 28289.7 CW, June 10 at 2103, AL AL AL DE WJ5O/B WJ5O/B WJ5O/B, the OSOB as sporadic E is barely funxioning from Troy, Alabama. His list says power is only 2 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2141 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees. Dear Glenn: World of Radio, monitoring and confirming the latest for #2141, WRMI: 9395, static noise moderate levels, 0130, 0144, 0157 (45333), 0159, June 4 UTC 2022 [Sat] 9395, 0042, 0052, 0058 (45333), 9455, 0030, 0053, 0057 (45343), 0059, 9395, June 7 UTC 2022 [Tue] 5850, QSB fading, sunrise change, 1049, 1055 (55433), S 9 signal, 1059, June 8 UTC 2022 [Wed] 0030, lightning storm in area, June 9 UTC 2022 [Thu] 9395, static QRN, 0137, 0144, 0150, S9 signal, 0159, June 9 UTC 2022 [Thu] (Lemke, Richard -AB) Good listening, Richard, June 9, 2022`` WORLD OF RADIO 2142 monitoring: confirmed first SWBCs, UT Friday June 10 at 0130 on WRMIs: into Missouri SDR, 7730 S9+5/15, 5850 S9+20/35. Into Maryland SDR: 7730 S9+10/15; 5850 S9+5/20. Also confirmed UT Friday June 10 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, fair but noisy into Missouri SDR. Missed checking Fri June 10 at 1430 on WRMI 9955; anyone hear it? Confirmed Friday June 10 from 1815.4 on IRRS SW via Bulgaria 7290; and AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, no 918 or 207. 7290 fair via NW Ireland SDR; 1323 via nearby Noale SDR, S9; both noisy. Tuned in both earlier: 7290 from 1756 only with Chinese, 1800 timesignal, *1800:52 or so, IRRS cuts on with Feature Story News from Washington, in progress; while 1323 was playing soul music before 1800, then IRRS sign-on and FSN, including Spotlite segment at 1803-1804.5; 1805 more IRRS ID with the PO Box in Milano they otherwise say not to use; and no more News in Brief from the UN. This week it`s the start of TUC Radio, interview with Noam Chomsky about Ukraine, chopped off at 1815 for IRRS ID and then WOR. I am humbled by IRRS demonstrating that what I have to say is more important than Noam. Busy, I don`t track whether WOR play to completion at 1844, but it usually does unlike the filler fragments before and after. [TUC Radio deserves a full slot of its own. A long-running US leftish show, stands for Time of Useful Consciousness. Read all about where that comes from, linx to podcasts including the Noam episode originally May 24: https://tucradio.org/ IIRC, it used to be on RFPI in Costa Rica, but I think not on WRMI or WBCQ, let alone 100% far-right gospel huxter stations. TUC emphasizes it`s *free* via Pacifica among other sources -- gh] [As for FSN, I`m not sure I get their business model: lots of bureaux around the world but costs stations only $ 15 a month to get it: https://www.featurestorynews.com/ -- gh] WOR 2142 also confirmed June 10 at 2036 the 2030 on AM Italia 918 only, S9 into Noale. Next: 0130 UT Saturday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0400 UT Saturday WBCQ 5130 to WSW 0700 UT Saturday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1930 UT Saturday WRMI 15770 to NE [canceled?] 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0430] 1324vUT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy 2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [to be canceled? still June 5] 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to SW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba] 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html For these noncommercial services, voluntary financial support is much appreciated, thanks this week to generous Doug Brown, London ON, who sent a Florida US$ check to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA, and comments: ``Thanks, Glenn, for continuing to promote the medium of short wave radio at a time when many are saying the Internet had made SW obsolete.

Tirana as currently scheduled on System H, 7730, 0600-0630 on Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri/Sun; and on Wed only, RFPI presumably Russian and 0615 Power of the Word. Also something new on Sat only at 0600-0630, `NBCWO`??? Nothing about that on the programming page or disgraced FB recently. It`s also Thu at 0830-0900 on 5850 & 7780, Sat 2330-2400 on 9395. Check it out? Never mind: broad search leads to: New Beginnings Church & World Outreach, from Indiana (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, June 10 at 0444, WTWW is S9+35/40 on fundamental but cannot detect usual parasitic spurs on 5072.1, 5097.9!

** AUSTRALIA. After finding no activity on higher hambands, Es or F2, finally, this OSOB: 18140 USB, June 8 at 2128-2138, VK4SX making N American contacts, mostly unheard but one calls him Dennis, and eventually put together infrequent IDs as VK4SX. QRZ.com:
VK4SX Australia flag Australia Dennis.A. EDEY NO QSL NO QSL AT ALL Bundaberg, QL 4670 Australia Nor does he wish to be spotted. That`s just south of Cairns on the NE coast of Queensland, tenth-largest city in the state. LOTS of equipment photos on his page, but not a single human, not even in the upper-right corner, rather antenna (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 9667.5 approx., June 9 at 0647, RVM music S7/S9, again jumped way above 9667 after last check just above nominal 9665 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2142) ** OKLAHOMA. Nearby LW/MW beacon check, June 8 at 2037 UT: 255 SW StillWater is on but JBA; also on: 341 EI EnId, 350 RG Will RoGers World Airport OKC; still OFF: 515 PN PoNca City (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WORLD OF RADIO 2142) ** SPAIN. 17855, Wed June 8 at 2208, REE is VG for token English, even on DX-398 portable with a few feet clipped on; Amy Egan`s feature is an interview with director of new film `Operation Mincemeat` about deceiving the Germans in WWII; which has just opened in Spain under a totally different title as literal translation would make no sense. Original interview had questions in Castilian which Amy voiced-over, while answers were in English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, June 9 at 0500, UR1 via WRMI, `Ukraine: Security Issue` in English by the other YL with accent, including: Russia holding 600 people in ``torture centers``.

WORLD OF RADIO 2141 monitoring: not confirmed Wed June 8 at 2100:21 on WBCQ 7489.9v since it`s a JBA carrier direct, can`t even recognize my voice let alone confirm correct episode; and the computer for closer remote or streamcheck is out of reach right now. Did anyone hear it? Yet the flat-earth crap on 9330 is S9+22 in English. Despite huge disparity in power and gain, the puny Classic transmitter might have a chance of audibility if it were on 9 MHz or higher in the daytime, above summerdaytime lower-band absorption. Confirmed UT Thursday June 9 at 0030 on WRMIs: 9395 S9+10/20 but stormy into Missouri SDR; and also 9455, S9+5/15.

Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130 kHz, June 9 at 0152, KWKH under an open carrier making a fast SAH, i.e. KLEY Wellington KS is back on air but amodulous. And obviously not cut to legal night power of ONE WATT rather than 250 W day power, despite official sunset in June, and July, being 0145. It seems no one but me cares about these violations, not even 50 kW KWKH Shreveport (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0124 UT June 10

S9+10/20 and suptorted; also JBA & JBM parasite carrier spurs on 11840 & 11860, encountered whilst checking for missing 11835 Vanuatu. 11850 at this hour is totally bonkers.
