Logs
** CUBA. 11845, June 30 at 0658, pulse jamming against nothing by the
incompetent and horribly wasteful DentroCuban Jamming Command on a
frequency Radio Martí abandoned many years ago and then was only in
daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. Tnx to RRR for replying to this: ``UNIDENTIFIED.
17755-17760-17765, June 28 at 2216, loud DRMish noise but metering S3,
nothing listed now in HFCC, EiBi or Aoki, but CRI in DRM on 17760 at
07-09; RRI also uses 17760 at other times but only AM. After 2300 I
try various KiwiSDRs with DRM enabled, but nothing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)``

``Hi Mr Hauser, That signal was TDF, yesterday at the same time I
could hear them. In the last months several DRM tx from TDF at various
times and frequencies:
6.010, 6.040 and 6.100 khz at 0000 UTC
9.740, 11.675 at 0600 UTC
17.760 at 2200 UTC
Usually programs of half an hour and presents RFI's program. Rafael
Rodriguez R.,
Bogotá D.C.-COLOMBIA`` with Imagen integrada screenshot labeled DEMO
TDF. Strange not in HFCC or anywhere; daily?

17755-17760-17765, June 30 at 2207, I try this myself, and there it
is, VG into Maryland SDR in DRM mode. In French, not listening for
long but seems 100%. Again labeled DEMO TDF, 8.8 kbps; off at 2230*.
Even here the embedded DRM sked lax this tho has some other
frequencies for TDF (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday June 30 at 2205, token English from SNR after
news is interview with a cookbook author: so it`s a good day for me to
pay attention to TURKEY instead. First I note this is S9/+10 VG into
Maryland SDR which can also hear 15520, 17715 and 11670 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 30 at 2211, VOT is S9+40/45 into UTwente,
VG signal and modulation today. After news, `Weekly Analysis` by some
professor whose name and institution I can`t possibly copy; about
Turkey, Russia, Ukraine, Baltix, NATO OK for Finland but not Sweden
without more concessions to Turkey over PKK. Nothing new here. 2216
`Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring` about preventing gastrointestinal
infexions with symptoms such as womiting, diarrhea: start with washing
hands frequently. 2224 `TRT always by your side` promo, song. 2227
another song. 2229* dumps off the air! by *2233 back on amid `Did You
Know That` by the badaccentedess, something about chestnuts. 2235
song. 2238 another song. 2242 `every hour with you everywhere` promo,
song. 2246 another song. 2250 s/off a bit early by the badaccentedess
as always jumbled curtailed sked about 4 other English emissions than
this one. 2251.5 IS starts. 2256 pause and restart IS now with German
IDs interspersed twice a minute. But chopped off air just in time at
2259.5* to avoid an extraneous German hour. And incredibly never heard
even once today the 2-minute multilingual ID filler reel. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler and/or awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2197 monitoring: confirmed first
SWBC, Friday June 30 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S5/S9 direct, no jamming
audible.

Also confirmed Friday June 30 at 2054 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM
Italia, 1323 kHz but not 918 or 207 kHz, S9+10/20 into nearby Noale
SDR with a few storm crashes and slight CCI; 2059 ``S/off`` and
continues with FSN. Next:

Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, ``In memory of Noel Green. I
remember all the times he helped me with Radio Pakistan info [he was
an official monitor in the UK]. Thanks for all your help over the
Decades!``

** U S A. I`ve been checking Allan Weiner on Twitter for any hints
about whether `AAAWWW` will be live this week, often misleading, but
now June 30, disgraced Twitter won`t let me look at his without
signing in and establishing my own account. Is this a fluke or a
policy change by T or by BCQ? Tsk2

(7490-), UT Sat July 1 at 0000, WBCQ webcast seems like a new one:
opening exclamation: ``Hot as hell!`` except most of June has been
cool and rainy in northern Maine until some sunshine reached 80 rather
than 60. Angela is remote on phone, i.e. back in Florida. Mostly
talking about car touring, a fun thing for him, driving a Model T
around Vermont with other enthusiasts. This happens every two years by
the HCCA - Horseless Carriage Club of America. He`s into the ``brass
era`` over 110 years ago.

At 0026 I check the SW frequencies into Maryland SDR: 7490 -72 Hz =
7489.928; 6160 -68 Hz = 6159.932; also on: 5130 -22 Hz = 5129.978; and
even 3265 + 132 Hz = 3265.132, JBA. By 0048 has drifted down to
3265.112.

0035 takes a phone call but blows her off as ``garbage``. 0036 finally
does intro but no datestamp, confirming quadricasting. 0037 call from
Leo on a cargo ship in the north Pacific who can`t pick up any of the
SW frequencies. And soon another call. 0044, should we get political?
Angela still wants to talk about car touring. 0053 reading email. 0058
a few new FRW items. 0059 quick prayer, but running overtime as usual
past 0100, plug 4th of July, beyond that not getting political; what a
relief; until JIP far-right Hal Turner about a sesquiminute late
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, June 30 at 0650, R. Vanuatu even stronger, S9/+10
and even impinging upon 7255 tuned for no Nigeria; ID in passing, plug
about ``emergency broadcasts``, English words mixed in with Bislama;
``Radio Vanuatu ... blong yumi``, island music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Signs of sporadic E into FM band on DXMAPs, so
out to the car to check. Once again, none of that reaching here, but
there is tropo from as far as Shreveport. Major Tulsa stations such as
96.5 are in like locals, and some weaker ones not normally heard like
102.3 KRMG can also make it. In fact there is a huge, heavy and
growing tropo blob over east TX, most of LA, AR and much of OK.
Standard introduxion applies. UT Thursday June 29:

94.5 at 0154, ad for flights to vacation destinations out of
Shreveport Regional Airport:

97.1 at 0155, baseball? game; 0157, ``97.1 The Sports Animal``; 0214,
register for some event at tulsaluncheon.com; national ads; OSU sports
stuff, another Animal ID:

35-24-48 95-21-55 4F6B //KITO 96.1 237/147

97.3 at 0203, soliciting pledges for Catholic schools, tcsok.org, so
it`s this little 1 kW station SW of OKC again:
KKNG-FM 97.3 BLANCHARD OK RELIGIOUS TEACHING 1.0 244.0 35-10-38
97-36-10 2BC0 VISIT WWW.OKCR.ORG 141/88
BTW, an OK RCC school is try to get its mitts on taxpayer money,
violating Separation Of Church And State - may lead to a SCOTUS test
case

99.3 at 0206, after Fox ``news``, ``southwest Oklahoma``, from ``KCLI
studios``, Joe Pags Show, but that`s national far-right talker. Anyhow
instead of usual KLOR Ponca City, I`m getting FM side of off-frequency
1319.9615 audible het KCLI Clinton:
KCLI-FM 99.3 CORDELL OK NEWS/TALK NEWS TALK 99.3FM 4.4 240.2 35-26-43

174/108

100.3 at 0207, Mexmx, weak but steady; 0218, ``104.9 y 100.3``, 918 AC
ad, so it is:
KCXR 100.3 TAFT OK Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN QUE BUENA TULSA 104.9 &
100.3 4.0 125.0 35-48-42 95-34-11 221/137
Where does unheard 104.9 fit into this?:
K285GW relays:KXTD-1530 104.9 TULSA OK Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN QUE
BUENA 104.9 & 100.3 0.19 156.0 36-06-25 95-47-13 - how it gets into
Tulsa, 59 km = 37 mi from Taft

92.3 at 0210, still 0212, 0228 when I suspend, DEAD AIR in $ tereo.
Believe a few minutes earlier I had the usual Fox/talker fringer:
KMZE 92.3 WOODWARD OK TALK/SPORTS TRI STATES NEWS TALK SPORTS 10.5
368.0 36-16-23 99-26-45 323E - 136/85

93.9 at 0213, ad for Texarkana Glass, into religiousy talk; also
mentioned Oklahoma. The trouble is, there is no 93.9 in Texarkana
TX/AR, nor anywhere near in the quadristate area AR/LA/OK, but closest
is this one in NE TX, 140 km = 87 miles away:
KOYN 93.9 PARIS TX COUNTRY 50.0 150.0 33-49-36 95-27-49 3775 Title &
Artist KOYN 93.9 Country 370/230
Texarkana Glass specializes in auto glass repair, apparently has no
locations outside Texarkana TX except maybe Genoa AR just east of
there. On my ND vertical antenna, this has totally captured 93.9 from
normal semilocal KIMY Watonga OK.

101.3 at 0220, instead of Wichita, VG with Lawton OK ad, also for TX
Dept of Criminal Justice, MacKenzie Automotive, 238-2024; 0225,
``Oklahoma`s Best Country, K-Law 101``, that complete slogan not in
WTFDA DB:
KLAW 101.3 LAWTON OK COUNTRY K-LAW 101 FM 100.0 178.0 34-32-59
98-32-21 2D22 KLAW-101 Artist - "TITLE" Country 204/127

What about DTV? Bandscan circa 0430 gets lots of BAD signals on open
channels, but none decoding except RF20 Tulsa (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2196 monitoring: ``9395 WRMI FL
Okeechobee w/Glenn Hauser World of Radio #2196 with the usual media
news including news about Algeria w/EE ending @1940 on 15160 but no
specifics are known. Antarctica has gotten more regular 18-21 UT
Wednesdays & Saturdays, mentioning my comments about the decline of
broadcast station quality programming in the context of Bell shutting
down many stations & blaming ‘the realities of AM’ instead of their
poor programming choices. Also mentioned that Deutche Welle has begun
Arabic on SW to Sudan in addition to lots of other news. Ending w/WRMI

Logs
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, June 28 at 1814, it`s time for another
Wednesday transmission of LRA36 --- but, no signal so far by 1934 into
Argentine remote -- one of them that does get plenty else on its
waterfall. Nor at final recheck 2046. Maybe Saturday (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, UT Wed June 28 at 0118, RAE in English via
System G, WRMI-6 with DX Axuality log items in alfabetical order by
country, Algeria, Antarctica, Bolivia, Canada, Congo, Liberia... sound
familiar like a report from Manuel Méndez, Spain, and fairly recent,
LRA36 as of June 17. At 0124 on to non-DX news headlines.

9455, UT Wed June 28 at 0120, I hear RAE with the same English
announcer, but regular non-DX news, a separate episode! In both cases,
musicbits inserted between items: god forbid one should have to listen
to someone talking for a few minutes with no musical relief! Trouble
is, System K on WRMI-5, 9455 is supposed per websked to be in
`Legends` at 0000-0200! This is strange. Something`s odd at Okeechobee
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15920 S1/S3, 15760 S4/S6 and 15340 S1/S4, June 28 at
2211-2214, Chinese talk, all CNR1 jammers vs Sound of Hope per EiBi
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9535, June 28 at 0623, S8/S9 undermodulated Spanish, unusual
for this RHC frequency to be running overtime; anything else?

11760, June 28 at 0627, RHC Spanish overtime instead of English again,
S9/+10 with squeal. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, June 28 at 2215, JBA S4/S1 music,
presumably Recep`s TRT jammer against Dengê Welat; no trace of any
other signal below 17500, and not much except Spain above; higher
priority than mere VOT, see TURKEY (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11800, June 28 at 2207, RRI English is detected and on
direct at S1/S4 so insufficient, but better than no Turkey neighbor on
11785 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed June 28 at 2200, token English from SNR, previews
feature, interview with owner of a LGBTIQ+ bookstore, in today`s
preferred initialism, which does start at 2206 after news. S9/S7 VG
direct, and also on 15520, 17715 and even JBA 11670 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 28 at 2203 and 2233 chex, VOT English for
us fails to put any signal into UTwente. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 17640, June 28 at 0635, BBCWS in English, interview
about elexions, the SSOB at S3/S6, 265 degrees from MADAGASCAR; //
weaker 17830 which is 170 degrees from VATICAN. BBCWS typically
operates in 1-hour blox per relay, like 06-07; in HFCC, 17640 gets
another hour at 07-08 by switching to SAO TOME (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2196 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday June 27 at
2330 on WRMI 9395, S7/S9 into UTwente, S9/+10 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday June 28 from 2059:59 on WBCQ 7490 -72 Hz =
7489.928, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR; clock and/or automation must have
been reset instead of traditional Play :21 seconds after the hour.
Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW]

Thanks this week for generous financial support from Gerald T.

Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, June 28 at 0116, WRNO is again/still AWOL (Glenn

** U S A. 15150, June 28 at 0632, WMLK still active here but JBA
instead of blasting in; much weaker than several other 19 mb stations.
Must be propagation as still VG into Europe per:

``[bdxc-news] WMLK 15150 kHz, Jun 28, Is this a new frequency?
Currently hearing 555 English religious programming with very clear ID
at 0700. Very strong signal. David J Morris, Lytchett Matravers, near
Poole`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5980 & 5890, Wed June 28 at 0639, WWCR is OFF these
frequencies as scheduled weeknights, unlike Tue when there was TOMBS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9265, Wed June 28 at 2210, WINB is JBA in HSNL but I can
detect English intonation, not Spanish as claimed on mistimed program
schedule, vv to yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 90.1, June 28 at 1455 UT, Radio Kansas, after emotional
``Nimrod`` by Elgar, special fund-raiser to ``buy three new
transmitters --- it`s time``. One may get a newly redesigned mug for
only $ 50. Well, this old transmitter of KHCC Hutchinson HQ station is
still doing very well, completely capturing 90.1 from KUCO on a
household radio, with a little help from the troposphere. The others
are KHCD 89.5 Salina and KHCT 90.9 Great Bend, seldom heard here.
WTFDA shows 100 kW ERP except for 50 on 90.9. Apparently just these
with some overlap, no translators:

R. Kansas is an excellent classical/news station; only wish I could
hear both it and KUCO on different frequencies. Tropo overnight also
favored BBC News via KHCC instead of KUCO classical. 185 km = 115 stmi
to site just east of Hutch.

Plenty tropo on the APRS map now, so after 1500 UT June 28, a DTV scan
finds BAD signals on RF: 8, 10, 11, 14, 15, 20, 21, 26, 28, 31, 34,
some of which correlate with Kansas. Unusual is 15 which must be DX
QRM to OKC`s KOPX baddenizing it: presumably KSNW, 650 kW, ``3``, NBC
for Wichita. The Zenith STB now takes 20/30 seconds to upboot after
onturn (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 7260, June 28 at 0642, NO signal from R.
Vanuatu, which had been reliable here; nor at 0645 on 7890, 11835
which would appear as harmonix if back on 3945. Anomaly, or another
periodic schedule change for no particular reason? No Nigeria either
7255-. Agreeing:

``[bdxc-news] Radio Vanuatu off-air again --- Radio Vanuatu is off-air
again. It was heard on 7260 kHz at 1830 UTC sign-on yesterday (27
June), but was absent by 0930 UTC today (28 June) on 7260 kHz or the
alternatives of 3945 and 5040 kHz (sign-off would normally be at 1100v
UTC). Still missing at the time of today’s expected sign-on at 1830
UTC (0530 Thursday in Vanuatu) Tony Rogers (using Brisbane KiwiSDR,
Australia)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7400, June 28 at 0643, JBA carrier, suspect pirate R.
Vostochnaya Zvezda with his few watts or whatever he`s calling it
tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 17755-17760-17765, June 28 at 2216, loud DRMish noise
but metering S3, nothing listed now in HFCC, EiBi or Aoki, but CRI in
DRM on 17760 at 07-09; RRI also uses 17760 at other times but only AM.
After 2300 I try various KiwiSDRs with DRM enabled, but nothing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 17946 USB, June 28 at 2218, a few fonetik words,
military? Seldom hear any aero activity at all on this band, but EiBi
shows a possibly busy channel: Azores, Ireland, NY, SF via AK or HI.
Via Maui SDR at 2216 I do JB hear some more ATC comms, selcall tones
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
