** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, re LRA36 not audible January 5, but did
Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, hear it? He replies, ``Hi Glenn, I forgot
to check yesterday Wednesday, but I guess the 2021 staff will have
already left Base Esperanza and it will be a while before the new
staff start transmitting again. Best 73,s`` -- but they have surprised
us before so let`s keep checking (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 5938.961, January 6 at 0712, RVM JBA carrier measured here
in severe splash from 5935 WWCR. While on 31m it`s been drifting up
beyond 9666, on 49m it`s going down as others have been reporting it
below rather than above 5939, let alone nominal 5940 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2120)

** INDIA. On WOR 2120, about AIR Leh, I said it`s one sesquikHz below
4760, but meant only one sesquiHz, as measured by Wolfgang Bueschel.
It`s the only AIR domestic SW station still on air after Dec 31,
presumably also the daytime frequency 6000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO 2120, 0130 UT Friday Jan 7 confirmed on WRMIs: 5850 VG
direct; 7780 S8/S9+10 into UTwente SDR. However, System F as heard on
5850 has misaligned continuity. Consistently between the WRMI ID and
start of WOR, some extraneous music butts in for a couple seconds;
worse, before I can finish speaking at 28:57 into the file, WRMI promo
ID fires overlapping and blotting me out. I am already leaving 3
seconds of dead air at the end of my always 29:00 files which had been
compensating for an overlap. Similar things happen to other airings
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6114, Jan 6 at 0706, the RTTY INTRUDER is back after a
few nights away; too close to 6115, R Nikkei, Japan altho it can be
split off with USB. I asked the UDXF iogroup if anyone could ID it.

``Glenn, FSK/50/200 encrypted. No history found. 73 de JimD (MPJ),
Wessex, Radio amateur, ex pro radio person. Retired.``

Mike Chace-Ortiz: I see what looks like 50bd/850 STANAG4481 FSK on one
of the Irish SDRs, so I’d suspect US Navy. Will be a tough one to DF
with the interfering broadcaster so close by but I’ll see what I can
do. 73 —mco``

JL 263, West Texas: ``Mike, 6114.0 kHz has been on the air for a
couple of days. I got a TDoA close to NSY at Niscemi, Italy.

It is a 75/850 using what appears to be KW-46 type encryption. Joe``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2120)

Later after WOR, Mike Chace-Ortiz replies again: ``Hey Joe, This
appears to be 75bd/850 STANAG4481 FSK from the Azores. Previously seen
on 8962 & 5454.5 kHz in December. Old and new algorithm runs attached.

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Jan 5 at 1428, 1538 chex, no LRA36
signal, just S5 noise level this Wednesday into two Brazilian, one
Uruguayan SDRs; nor at 1538. Well, at first check when someone in
Salem OR was already on frequency, so I camped, I almost heard trace
of modulation, but must have been imagination-level or extremely
underpowered or underpropagated. We`ll see if Manuel report it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9900-, Jan 5 at 2219, NO signal from R. Cairo into UTwente,
but somehow heard are some tonebeeps. Maybe NMA have finally got our
message to turn it off until and unless fixed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2119 monitoring: Richard caught two WRMI

possibility of something 3 x 1680 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.598, Jan 4 at 2112 & 2118, NO signal from R. Cairo
fracas today into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Jan 4 at 2333, VOT manages to transmit
today unlike yesterday, during a recipe, S9+35/40 into UTwente, +18 Hz
carrier offset with some hum but sufficient modulation.

2359 recheck now Chinese is dominant, but ripple SAH from another
carrier, maybe TRT remnant but soon off. 2400 timesignal and anthem,
ZRGD ID, now reading +12 Hz carrier offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 6125, Jan 5 at 0424, VOT is S9/S7 but undermodulated to
JBM, unusable. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 347 MCW kHz, Jan 4 at 0422 UT, AFK, 25 watt ND beacon from
Nebraska City NE. Not often heard. Tuned in USB, with bleed from

** U S A. 5935, 5890, 4840, 3215, Jan 5 at 0425, all four WWCR
transmitters are OFF!!! Not for storms as Blitzortung tho not checked
until 0602, shows absolutely no storms anywhere in North America. Good
riddance? Nothing on homepage to explain. But by 0615 recheck, all are
back on except 3215 the BS is incredibly weak, must be ailing, S6-S9,
while 4840 hits S9+40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Jan 5 at 0426, WTWW-1 is S9+30/20 of dead air, like
last night? Maybe it`s not Ted to wake up; when I was on WTWW, the
programming of old SFA tapes and anything else was handled remotedly
by some guy in Pennsylvania (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540.21, Jan 5 at 0441 UT, big het against 1540.00 signals,
identified months ago and still going whenever checked, all night, the
10 kW *daytimer* WKVQ, Eatonton, Georgia, little or no modulation as
if that make it OK. KGBC Galveston TX used to be on the minus side of
1540 but not heard lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, January 5 at 0433:

UNIDENTIFIED. 4095.95 approx., Jan 5 at 0429, extremely slow Morse
code beacon ID as TCO repeated several times, and then TE2- sent once,

** CUBA. 13680, Jan 3 at 2101, RHC in Brazuguese. This frequency still
not picked up by Aoki or EiBi, altho I already reported it Dec 17 at
2121. It may be sporadic. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Jan 4 at 0222, RHC Spanish is S9+10 but JBM, along
with JBA carrier parasites 11840 & 11860, while 11760 is much better;
and 5040 is S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Jan 4 at 0225, R. Rebelde only S9, must be QRP, as 4765
Progreso hits S9+20, and 5040 RHC S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, Jan 4 at 0727, RHC S9+20/30 in Spanish, on way beyond
when any Spanish is supposed to SW. In fact it was still going at 0840
per Bryan Clark in NZ, and could pose a problem for Vanuatu if it
resume. At least Jeypore, India is out of the way. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 350 MCW kHz, Jan 4 at 1606 UT, RG, 400 watt ND beacon
``Gally`` at Will Rogers World Airport, southwest OKC, is BACK! Had
been off for 2 days. AFAIK there were no crash landings during (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PERU. 4810.0, Jan 4 at 0725, JBM talk and music S9 audible in LSB
mode only vs STANAG, presumed R. Logos. Some may hear it best by
tuning to 4808 as read-out but the carrier frequency is what counts
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 3 at 2302, NO signal from VOT English to North
America, into Maryland SDR. Just in case also checking UTwente, where
it pounds in on the way to us - not there either at 2307, but weak
Chinese is already on instead of *2310. Now that makes a JBA carrier
into Maryland. Still no TRT at 2355. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

0723, S9+10/20 but distorted praise music. Something`s always
mis-modulated at Metairie (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Jan 4 at 0230-0241+, and still/again past 0358, S9+20
of dead air from WTWW-1 except for some hum; meanwhile 5085 WTWW-2 is
nominal. Wake up, Ted. PPPP`ll get you (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1200 kHz, January 4 at 0744 UT, once again gospel huxter
fighting it out with WOAI San Antonio, making a SAH, no doubt KFNW on
day pattern or ND, and could easily be day power of 50 kW. About it
from ``North American News``, edited by Andrew Brade, January Medium
Wave News:

``1200 KFNW West Fargo, ND – station has a CP and Programme Test
Authority for a new antenna installation, at a new site, with the same
facilities as previously. The station is still licensed for 50 kW days
and 13 kW nights, both with a directional array from a four-
tower installation of which three are used during the day. The pattern
for the directional array is to the north. Pending the relocation of
the towers, KFNW had been operating under a non-directional STA since
June 2021 with 10 kW days and 3.25 kW nights`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, January 4 at 0242:

UNIDENTIFIED. 5055, Jan 4 at 0728, JBA carrier. I might guess 4KZ,
Innisfail, Queensland, but sunset in nearby Cairns is not until 0855.
Aoki shows Vanuatu also on 5055 as well as 5040, but neither now?
