** OKLAHOMA. May 10 at 1715 UT on caradio in garage, another FM check
compared to yesterday noon:

93.9, KIMY Watonga has now managed to modulate, as one of
thegospelstation.com acknowledging support from the Pollard Theater,
Guthrie, which I had assumed was a secular institution.

Website has a coverage map centred in OK but with outliers in TX, AR,
OH, TN. Tho singularly named, it`s axually a 17-station network:

88.3 South Central OK
88.3 Broken Bow, OK
88.3 Dibrell, TN
90.1 HD2 Edmond OK
91.5 Henryetta/South Tulsa OK
91.5 Wichita Falls, TX/Lawton, Duncan, OK
91.9 Granite/Altus OK
93.9 Watonga/Kingfisher/Weatherford, OK
99.7 HD4 Amarillo, TX
100.1 Chickasha, OK
101.5 Oklahoma City Metro
102.7 Paris, TX
103.9 Bartlesville, OK
104.7 Amarillo, TX
105.1 Ada, OK
106.9 Hillsboro, OH
107.3 Edmond/Guthrie, OK

Note the 90.1 HD2 Edmond, which means is sapping some of the power out
of KUCO, our classical station with a signal much weaker than
equivalent commercial OKC stations. But renting the HD2 to gospel
huxters helps pay their bills. You would never know there is such a
connexion by inspecting the KUCOFM.com website.

88.3, at 1717 UT May 10, dead air in stereo from the KJIL 99.1
translator in Enid, K202BY, at least for a few minutes; modulating
when next checked at 0226 UT May 11.

104.7, at 1718 UT May 10, dead air in mono with some CCI. Normal
fringe dominator is KQSN Ponca City, 25/25 kW. 1830 recheck now
driving, is on with slogan ``The Maul`` -- or Moll -- or Mall? They
all sound alike, but in db as ``The Bull``. Why name station for a
stupid animal? Could the DA have been a silent unID unfed nearby RF
feeder instead? Would expect one of those to be $ tereo (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. From Wolfgang Buschel, more about missing RRI frequencies:
``Sender Țigănești TX1, -- missing transmitter function since April 1,
2021: ... is the 2nd attempt, after a wrong order with a wrong
component to repair attempt in 2021. 73 wb`` and forwards this from
someone in translation:

``Good afternoon, here is the promised answer to the question about
the reactivation of the Țigănești TX1 transmitter: A conversation with
RADIOCOM revealed that they were [awaiting] the delivery of a
capacitor from China. Delivery date would be June at the earliest.
Kind regards, Alexander`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 10 at 2252, VOT English is S9+10/20 into
Marylandm reciting entire English transmission schedule as always in
somewhat jumbled form, and with quite a hum; IS and cut off at 2255*
before can switch to bonus German. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 10 at 0501-0506, UR1 via WRMI with
`Ukraine: Security Issue`, the fast-talker in English for May 9, Day
76 of the War, VG into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2137 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday May 10 at 0037 the 0030 on WRMIs direct, 9395 & 9455 both
S9/+10 but somewhat lower modulation level on 9395.

Also confirmed Tuesday May 10 at 2230 on WRMI 9955: S6/9+10 direct
with no jamming audible; then at 2250 checking remotes to the SSE
where it`s allegedly aimed, little or nothing to Boa Vista or St
Lucia; nor even Knoxville to the NNW. But it`s S9/+10 to Maryland as
lite jamming becomes audible and builds toward 2300 for Radio
Libertad, since there is no liberty allowed in CUBA. The Other Side:

``Cuba touts itself as a 'medical powerhouse,' but many citizens have
to go abroad for treatment --- Most of them apply for humanitarian
visas to be treated in 'the belly of the monster'.

** U S A. Doug Smith replies re contradictory info about KKFI 90.1
KC/MO which I DXed at some 300 miles/500 km:

``The 5.31 kW KKFI facility is a backup transmitter. If you look in
the FCC LMS records, the "service" is "FS" instead of "FM". There's an
old permit (superseded) for a different site but both that permit and
the actual site in use are east of I-435, well inside Missouri``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. RF 12, May 10 at 1450 UT, tropo up again much like yesterday
morning, lots of BAD VHF & UHF DTV signals, but only this decodes,
KSCW 33-1 Wichita but carrying Eyewitness News from KWCH ``12`` on 12,
which itself is really on RF 19 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0320 UT May 11

** EGYPT. 9439.995, May 9 at 2150, R. Cairo in English, S9+30 into
UTwente but with extreme distortion and whine; was JBA checked a few
minutes earlier direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, May 9 at 1528 via S India SDR, Voice of
Martyrs Korea, S9/+20 but noisy, usual YL preaching in Dhivehi,
contrary to the only legal religion there, Sunni Islam; does she
aspire to martyrdom? Or is she safely in Korea South? 1529.7 switch to
bit of music and s/off in English. Carrier seems to overlap a bit but
to ear, transition to Vatican Arabic so smooth that one might be
fooled into assuming both from same site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 93.9, May 9 at 1704 UT, strong mono signal of dead air
encountered in DX bandscan mainly concentrating on 93.7 KNOR TX. Still
dead at 1715, 1805 chex, presumably KIMY semi-local. They`ve done this
before, nobody paying attention. What will all the Watongans do
without their constant diet of gospel huxterism? Or, possibly a nearby
neighbor`s RF feeder left on perhaps in a parked car. Certainly not
one of mine. *Still* dead air at 2314 recheck.

101.3, May 9 at 1720 UT, two stations mixing, one with an Oklahoma
Army National Guard PSA/ad? Wichita normally dominant here, but
probably 100 kW KLAW, Lawton; also a 100 kW KMCO Wilburton; an LP in
Edmond, translator in Vinita. Some other Okies mixed in with USA, q.v.
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. Stephen Luce replies May 7 on the WOR iog to my report
that RRI was missing from 7375 at 0300:

``Glenn, for Romania it would appear that one of the Tsiganeshti
transmitters for Radio Romania International has now been off the air
for over a year. I have not heard anything for the English broadcasts
on 9550 at 0000, or on 7375 at 0300 during the A-22 season, which was
the same situation during A-21. Meanwhile both 7420 and 9730 are
present for Romanian at 0000. During B-21 RRI had both scheduled
frequencies working for English at 0100, but was missing a transmitter
for Romanian at the same time.

There does not seen to be any sort of recent explanation for the
missing transmitter on the RRI website. Has to be a severe problem to
have gone on for so long. I too am getting good reception of RRI
English at 0300 on 9850. Three hours earlier, 7375 is fair but
improves during the hour as local sunset approaches. Stephen Luce,
Houston, Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, May 9 at 2222.5, VOT English, S9+50 with hum into
UTwente, starting `Feeling Supreme` -- something life segment, about
natural solutions for gastric pain. Would any other SW station be so
considerate? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 9 at 0500, UR1 via WRMI after quick ID
only, immediately into English `Ukraine: Security Issue`, YL reporter
who is best-spoken, war news lasting about 6.5 minutes. I think the UU
plug for the resistance website played after her, rather than before.
Usual VG signal into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2137 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
May 8 at 2000.7 UT on 1323 kHz, IRRS via AM Italia, Villa Estense, S9
into nearby Noale SDR, but with much higher local noise level than
usual. Nothing on 918 or 207 kHz.

Also confirmed Sunday May 8 at 2230 on WRMI 5950, S7/9+15 into Georgia
SDR: still showing tho not on the program skedgrid for months.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 9 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9 but noisy into
Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday May 9 from 0304.5, on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-,
into Georgia SDR, S7/S8 with ACI from 6165 Cuba. How much longer are
we having to put up with that, two stations from adjacent countries on
adjacent frequencies? Previous program of cacophony ran over. At 0315
I`m getting it better direct, S9/+20. Next:

** U S A. (7490.1v), Sunday May 8 at 2229, WBCQ webcast of `Uncle
Bill`s Melting Pot`, episode ending, and 2230 starting another!
Normally it`s one full hour at 22-23. UB has COVID so may be affecting
his broadcast scheduling. Yes: at 2259 outro as ``next week is St.
Patrick`s Day``! Such a combo would make the semi-repeat Monday at
2300-2330 only, less abruptly chopped off --- if it still exist, as I
previously heard him plug some other show during that slot, tho, of
course, not so shown on the never up-to-date WBCQ program skeds. COVID
also stymied his planned trip to Cuba this month. GWQ!

Monday May 9 at 2300 also on WBCQ webcast, I catch opening of the
secret semi-repeat which still exists, as Bill explains that he is
replaying his very first two half-hour episodes from March 2017! Of
course shows like this are evergreen (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4790, UT Monday May 9 from 0212 past 0219, WBCQ Radio Angela
with `Concert Hall` in an opera. I am checking again for uteblaap QRM,
and there it is, via Maryland SDR: watching the waterfall as well as
audibly, they now erupt exactly once a minute at about :00. Again
there are three alternating spots, on the minus, even, and plus side
of 4790: only one at a time rather than combining, and only the even
ones are audible due to receiving bandwidth; and not all of these are
very obvious vs the modulation and background noise level.
Interleaving, there is another cycle at about :42 seconds past the
minutes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. At wakeup 1343 UT May 9, turn on bedside YB-400 normally not
used for DXing but for RF feeder reception or localish listening: on
90.1 for KUCO OKC, but instead `Democracy Now` in progress --- which
means it is not either the usual #2 signal on 90.1, KHCC Hutchinson,
Radio Kansas. Maybe KERA Dallas if tropo from there up again? No, D.N.
website shows the nearest 90.1 is KKFI Kansas City MO! and the time
fits, 8-9 am CT. WTFDA says it`s only 5.31/5.31 kW, only 95 m HAAT,
community ``Free Range Radio``. Site is on the MO side, not KS per
radio-locator map, but which also says it`s 100 KW, 129m! -- more
likely. FCC says licensed for 100, but CP for 5.31: strange. Tropo
maps do show enhanced from here to Kansas City.

BTW, `Democracy Now` is on 1546 `stations` worldwide, but not on a
single Oklahoman other than obscure cable channels, natch, since there
is no democracy in OK! Plenty of outlets e.g. in neighboring NM, TX.

Next I`m on the DX-398, but still abed not ready for porch or car
DXing.

89.5, May 9 at 1357 UT, CSN Radio non-ID. Normally vacant channel here
but there are two Okies: KJCC, Carnegie, 23.5/23.5 kW; and translator
K208CG in OKC; but there are also two translators in KS: K208FE in
Topeka, and K208EK in closer Parsons. They all relay something from
Idaho.

91.9, May 9 at 1358 UT, ``SonLife Broadcasting Network``, the nearby
KBDD Winfield KS, boosted a bit as normally obscured by 91.7 KOSU +
HD.

91.7, May 9 at 1358 UT, KOSU is getting CCI which takes some doing; at
1400 sounds like KVOM? And EWTN network. DB gets no hits on 91.7 for
EWTN, but ETERNAL as slogan gets one: KSIF, Wellington TX, 2.0/2.0 kW,
124.0 m. Wellington is just next to SW corner of OK between Shamrock
and Childress, so is feasible. Looking thru complete USA list of
91.7s, nothing even fuzzily similar to KVOM.

93.5, May 9 at 1359 UT, ``Power 93.5`` traffic report concerning I-135
and I-235, i.e. KDGS Andover KS, tornado-hit Wichita suburb, 15/15 kW,
114 m. WTFDA shows only ``Power 93`` without the point 5. Also
mentioned KNSS, I guess a sibling station on 1330.

94.3, May 9 at 1404 UT, RDS: BOTT / RADIO / NETWORK, i.e. KCVW Kingman
KS, 100/100 kW, 253 m = the usual fringe with KLGB gone

87.75, May 9 at 1406, somesignal here with JBA talk; normally no
Franken FMs audible, KBSD Ensign/Dodge City KS still on RF channel 6
is non-Analog. Could also be receiver overload? No Frankens on
``87.7`` listed within likely range closer than Memphis or Denver. On
``87.9`` there is KBFW-LD Arlington TX, 300 watts of Spanish.

Gotta break for breakfast. At 1456 I check for DTVDX. Almost every
open channel has a BAD signal on it, and some of the `local` OKC
channels such as 33 have also been baddened by DX QRM.

RF 12, May 9 at 1456 UT is the only one decoding, 33-1 KSCW-DT
Wichita, but it`s carrying KWCH virtual 12 news before and after 1500,
maybe playback from sibling station, getting it back on true channel
12 while KWCH is really on RF 19. BTW, I had a bad signal there too;
normally no signal detected, blocked by KAUT OKC in ATSC 3.0, leading
the way! RF 12 finally fades to Bad by 1520.

From 1704 UT May 9, missing any ToH IDs, to the caradio for FM DX:

93.7, May 9 at 1704 UT, Mexican music totally overriding KSPI
Stillwater, much like May 7 during the ``noon`` hour. ``Don Cheto al
Aire``, a bit more music, then from 1707, all frenetic chat between
Chepo and YL sidekick/s. It`s so colloquial that I can hardly follow
it, but general topic seems about relationships. $ tereo, and music
continues playing JBA in background. References to CDMX and being
nervous about Popocatepetl make me wonder if it originate in the Aztec
Capital. But at 1727 surgery ad with a 661 AC phone number, which is
Bakersfield = Kern and parts of adjacent California counties. 1731,
plug Estrella TV on digital platforms --- never mind plain old TV,
like KMPX Decatur TX, RF 30, ``29``; and ``La Raza`` liner, so no
doubt it is again KNOR Krum TX in The Metroplex, market #5. 1734 my
lunch break until 1805 again missing ToH IDs, but still Mexmx on 93.7,
weakening. Uplooking later, KNOR is in fact owned by Estrella TV, a
third-rate network if that. Found this on website, not accounting for
the time I`m hearing Don Cheto:

https://estrellatv.com/donchetoalaire
``Don Cheto Al Aire 5:00am - 11:00am
El programa de radio más exitoso entre la comunidad hispana de Estados
Unidos. Distribuido en más de 42 estaciones de radio, por todo el
país, Don Cheto, Giselle Bravo, El Chino y Said García nos traen las
mejores anécdotas, bromas y noticias que más les interesan a sus
oyentes. Sus mañanas serán divertidas con su estilo único y una forma
muy diferente de ver la vida. No se lo pierdan de Lunes a Viernes de 5
a 11 de la mañana.``

As for ``La Raza`` branding, one cannot imagine a white or
black-ethnic station calling itself ``The Race``, but it`s perfectly
proudly OK for Latin@s?! who of course are not a race at all but
ethnicity.

Most FM channels are piles of CCI, but one more of interest, as it
tops occasionally:

104.9, May 9 at 1722 UT, South Asian music is outstanding, alternating
with other station(s) at 1729; 1730 divorce and dental ads in English
``for the South Asian community of north Texas``. Therefore from WTFDA
DB:

KZMP-FM 104.9 PILOT POINT TX HD ETHNIC FUNASIA, 35/35 kW, 535 m, Pilot
Point, Dallas, Fort Worth WWW.FUNASIA.COM

Guess what: that domain is for sale. Obviously related to 1540 AM KZMP
University Park which is now Spanish/ranchera. Pilot Point is a little
town about halfway between Denton and Gainesville, well north of The
Metroplex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, May 9 at 0556 I`m QRX for R. Vanuatu carrier cutoff,
which I time at 0559.1. Retuning ASAP to next frequency, 11835 = 3 X
3945, it`s already on by 0559.3, sounds like starting in English but
more likely Bislama (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12165-12225, May 9 at 0602, approx. range of a noise
peak, perhaps one of those ``experimental`` arbitrage transmitters
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report despatched at 0010 UT May 10

** CUBA. 6000, May 8 at 0553, RHC S9+10/20 of dead air in English;
music in presumed English service remains on 6060, S9+10; 6100 is off;
6165 undermodulated music; 11670 S9+10 of dead air, presumably was
English as recently, but now no 11880 nor any 13s; 11670 is off by
0602. And 5040 is in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, May 8 at 1503, Voice of Martyrs Korea
underway in English, via secret site, S9+10/20 into S India SDR; at
1506.7 switches to YL in Dhivehi who runs past 1529; finally 1529.4
bit of music and sign-off in English, off just in time for *1530
Vatican Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9368 & 9372, May 7 at 1932, R. Svoboda 9370, Armenia?
into UTwente SDR accompanied by spur carriers exactly 2 kHz away on
both sides. Richard Langley had heard the het on a recording, later
determined they were out of same transmitter, and:

``The sign-on time for the nominal one-hour relay of Radio Svoboda
starting around 1900 UT varies from day to day according to my
recordings using the U. Twente SDR receiver. Today (6 May) it was on
with audio before 1846. Yesterday, the transmitter came on at about
1856 and on 4 May, it came on at about 1859, with audio starting in
both cases about 30 seconds later. And on 4 May, the audio was
accompanied by multiple tones (4 I think) centred around 2000 Hz
either side of the carrier instead of the usual single tone``

9366 & 9374, May 8 at 1935, now the spur carriers are about plus and
minus 4 kHz into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 8 at 0503-0506 via WRMI, UR1 with English
segment, `Ukraine: Security Issue`; I tuned in late (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2137 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday May 8 from 0352.5 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, VG into
nearby Warrenton SDR.

Also confirmed Sunday May 8 at 1355 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292,
GERMANY, 9670, but JBA into UTwente, and not audible to Ireland or
Iceland SDRs, rather heavy ACI splash. Next:

Is anyone close enough to these LPFMs to confirm whether they still

** U S A. More heavy tropo May 8 at 1510 UT, lots of BAD DTV signals
on otherwise open RF channels: 8, 9, 10, 11, 14, 21, 26, 30, 32, 36;

RF 35, one decoding already is 4-1 KDFW-DT. Subchannels at 1530:
4-2, KDFW D2; 4-3 Heroes, with Superman episode with George Reeves;
4-4 GetTV.

At 1539+ a bunch more from The Metroplex are decoding, but no time to
explore subs of each:
RF 36, 39-1 KXTX-DT
RF 32, 33-1 KDNT-DT
RF 31, 55-1 MeTV
RF 30, 29-1 KMPX-HD
RF 14, 13-1 KERA-HD

Checking rabbitears.info later: RF 32 is supposed to be KDAF, not
KDNT. But that`s what I copied. Font on the PSIP IDs is hard to read
accurately on a small screen. RF 31 is KAZD, licensed to Lake Dallas.
RF 30 KMPX is licensed to Decatur. DX QRM made RF 33 OKC a BAD signal.
Tropo maps show big blob around The Metroplex extending to, or almost
to, Enid, as they did yesterday when I was getting all that FM DX
midday. FM band not checked on this opening (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK,

This report dispatched at 1940 UT May 8

** ANDORRA [non]. 13730, May 7 at 2142, another R. Andorra music
special is S6-S9 direct, scheduled 21-24 UT today only. Except it`s
all-talk in French right now. Also had it earlier on 6180, VG into
UTwente, both out of Moosbrunn, AUSTRIA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Saturday May 7 at 1435, LRA36 is on
already with prélude before the publicized *1500 resumption after a
month off. As usual I start with Brazilian KiwiSDRs: Pardinho has just
a trace; both Brasílias get it much better, S3-S5 but breaking up: a
receiver not a transmitter defect since there is no breakup when I
switch to Campo, also S3-S5. Maybe an ID amid music stuck in at 1446.
1456 YL mentions Antártida, more music. 1458 ``buenas noches`` -- huh?
1501 formal canned sign-on with multilingual IDs including English
briefly. 1502 reciting names of the new all-female staff of four, and
the Antártida themesong. 1506 historical talk; 1510 ID; 1513 contact
info including phone number, whatsapp. Lots of others are on these
remotes. For a while I can only camp on someone mistuned to 15476.00
so the sound is slightly off. 1528 I switch to an Argentine which is
getting it slightly better. Mentions menos 50 grados, not sure if
current temp. 1537 LRA36 ID, song; 1542 contact info again; 1550 song;
1555 phone number again; 1609 contact info; 1617 song. The only
possible mention of a real-time contact was, I think, from someone in
Germany. 1621 ID and song, but dumps off air at 1623* abruptly and
stays off at least thru 1633 when I quit. Was possibly going to repeat
at 1800 but nothing at final recheck 1832. Now, are they going to
resume Wednesdays as well? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 10129-USB, May 7 at 0610 UT, surprised to hear some
Oz-accented phone hams, 2 or 3 VK3s and a VK7, not positive of calls
but maybe VK3OM, VK7OR? Only S3. I was under the impression that the
``30m`` ham band was strictly no-phone, but there is an exception:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WARC_bands#30-meter_band_plan

``Australia (VK, region 3) has a unique set of privileges on 30 meters
which allows voice operation on a section of the band for advanced
license holders. The digital segment is 10.130-10.150 MHz. The current
band plan has telephony from 10.120–10.135 MHz, with CW only below
10.120. These are WIA [11] recommendations only as ACMA does not
restrict Australian amateurs' modes within HF allocations beyond
requiring less than 8 kHz occupied bandwidth per channel below 28
MHz`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9667.174, May 7 at 0604, RVM S6/S8 with songs a bit
overmodulated. I was wondering if its upward drift would ever attain
9667 -- sure has, and then some! Let`s see if it continue increasing.
Sounds secular to me, but Carlos Gonçalves, Portugal, says songs are
religious in Brazilian country style, when he heard it at a very
different time and precise frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CAYMAN ISLANDS. 21285 USB, May 6 at 2025, ZF2RX with quick ``CQ73``
contacts, almost OSOB except for a ragchew on 21267.5. QRZ.com is not
very informative: WHICH Cayman?

ZF2RX Cayman Islands flag Cayman Islands
Brayden M Ebare

Page managed by KC1KUG, born in 2005
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740 & 13680, May 6 at 2126, S9/+10 of dead air on both,
2127 modulation cuts on, slightly louder on 13740. Something`s always
wrong at RHC.

13680, May 7 at 2144, RHC is S9/+20 but suptorted while 13740 is
S9/+25 and clearer. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Some FM DX logs are included under USA, May 7 at
1719-1822 UT, q.v.

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 7 at 0500.7-0506.8, UR1 via WRMI, another
daily edition of `Ukraine: Security Issue`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2137 monitoring: confirmed Friday
May 6 from 1815.4 UT on IRRS SW, 7290 via BULGARIA, and 1323 kHz via
AM Italia, Villa Estense, and complete until 1844, then music.

As usual, tuned these in earlier: 1755, into UTwente, 7290 has Chinese
station only, with song, S6 on LSB, and nothing but RTTY warble on
USB. 1800 ChiCom timesignal and theme, IRRS not cutting on until
*1800.9, JIP `Feature Story News & Spotlite`; initially atop Chinese
before it go off circa 1805. Nothing audible on 14580 = 2 x 7290. 1805
to `UN News in Brief`, 1809 rock music fill, 1813 cut to unknown show,
YL about cartoonist, World Press Freedom Day May 3, but chopped off at
1815 for IRRS ID and QSL offer for reports to Milano PO Box otherwise
banned, 1815.4 into WOR.

All that while simulmonitoring on 1323, well atop German CCI from
Romania, but nothing now on 918 or 207 kHz. 1844 music, 1848 unknown
program about a cartoonist, British accent, from Genova? Presumably
continuation of 1813-1815 segment. Chopped off at 1900.

WOR 2137 also confirmed Fri May 6 at 2033 the 2030 on IRRS via AM
Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+10, still nothing on 918 or 207 kHz.

Also confirmed UT Saturday May 7 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20.

Also confirmed UT Saturday May 7 at 0403 the 0400v on Radio Angela
WBCQ, 4790, S7 and noisy into Maryland SDR, marred by those uteblaaps.
This time there are two sequences, each exactly 1:00 minute apart:
0408.0, 0409.0, 0410.0...; and 0406:40, 0407:40, 0408:40, 0409:40...
calibrated compared to WWV on 5000 via same remote. Instead of two at
a time out of minus, even, and plus frequencies, now there is only one
at a time on the waterfall. And at a bandwidth of about 10 kHz on
regular AM setting, 4785-4795, the outer ones are visible but not
audible. It seems that there is a different configuration every night,
quite interesting to hearview.

But I digressed. WOR 2137 also confirmed Saturday May 7 at 1600 on WRN
North America webcast.

Also confirmed Saturday May 7 at 1930 on WRMI 15770, S6 and noisy into
UTwente; also again on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed Saturday May 7 at 2000 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, about 19
minutes into so started circa 1941.

Also confirmed UT Sunday May 8 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S6/S7 into
Georgia SDR, off the side from this SW beam. Next:

** U S A. (5085), WTWW-2 webcast running in background around
0030/0200 UT Sunday May 8, and not a note of thorgan music, just ham
stuff. What has become of Theatre Organ Under the Arch? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. DXMAPs have been showing some sporadic E MUF spikes into the
FM band or even above it, but they are few and scattered in North
America. Yet I decide to try for some Es DX, from my preferred site,
displacing the cat on the table on the south-facing porch, as it`s
puzzled what`s going on; only a meter above ground level, so should
minimize groundwave QRM. With the DX-398 and whip antenna only which I
can manipulate for polarity or some other nulling as needed. Starting
at 1719 UT May 7. It`s immediately obvious that area tropo is up with
90.1 KHCC Radio Kansas overriding KUCO all morning and a number of BAD
DTV signals; as well as various Tulsa and other peripheral OK signals
on FM. If no real Mex DX, I shall at least become more familiar with
nearer markets. Reference is the WTFDA FM Database. In Universal time
order:

1719, on 92.1, ``2NEWS weather``, ``The Beat 92-1``, rock, so that is
only KTBT Broken Arrow OK = Tulsa market, 27/27 kW, 200 m, TULSA'S
PARTY STATION - The Beat.

A few minutes later without really trying on 92.1: KFXI Marlow OK,
``Foxy 92``, 100/100 kW, 166m, Country. Not unusual

1725, on 94.1, ``The Rock Station, Z-94``: KZCD, LAWTON, ROCK Z-94,
35/35 kW, 178 m. Slogan ID again at 1750.

1725, on 94.1, CCI with AC 918 = Tulsa market: KXOJ-FM, Glenpool OK,
100/100 kW, 210.7 m, Christian. Glenpool was once QTH of a SW plan
that never happened.

1726, on 94.1, CCI Mexican music, ``Que Buena 94.1`` briefly gains
over the other two. Unfortunately turns out there are NO Mexicans by
this name, nor spelt ``Ke``. Rather, it is:
KLNO, FORT WORTH TX, Spanish, REGIONAL MEXICAN, 94.1 QUE BUENA, 98/98
kW, 485 m; and not the 3 kW ``Ke Buena`` in Oregon. At 1737 another
peak of Mexmx vs the CCI, 1739 slogan ID again, never mind the calls.
And at 1759.

Some, but not all, The Metroplex stations are on the Cedar Hill
antenna farm on SE side of Dallas, which is 431 km = 269 statutes from
Enid.

1728, on 96.3, ad for Texas Health, Logan`s Roadhouse, Macy`s. LRH is
unfamiliar to me, but there are lots of these restaurants including
OKC, TX and other states. This one must be:
KSCS, FORT WORTH TX, NEW COUNTRY 96.3 KSCS, 100/100 kW, 265 m

1738, on 94.3, ``Kool 94`` and ad for Cordell OK; RDS of music
playing: SMASHING/PUMPKINS -- perfectly 8 letters each! This is:
KXOO, 94.3, ELK CITY OK, CLASSIC HITS, KOOL 94.3 FM, 12/12 kW, 143 m
[Enid`s KLGB-LP, remains kaput, was my closest local]

1742, on 94.9, Red Mountain Weight Loss ad, which exists in OKC and
Fort Worth, but also KLTY ID, so this is:
KLTY, ARLINGTON TX, CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN, 99/99 kW, 508 m

1746, on 92.3, sports talk with static RDS: ESPN_KC_ [sic, as in
Kansas City?] but this is surely my semi-local:
KKGQ, 92.3, NEWTON KS, SPORTS, ESPN WICHITA, 100/100 kW, 195.0 m

1747, on 92.5, Logan`s Roadhouse ad, barely sneaks thru huge KOMA OKC
with antenna vertical only. Surely this from the PTA:
KZPS, DALLAS TX, CLASSIC ROCK, LONE STAR 92.5, 99/99 kW, 508 m

At 1756 I move to the Nissan caradio in garage, which may get
somethings else, due to selectivity, sensitivity? But antenna vertical
only and no RDS available.

1757, on 96.7, adjacent local 96.9, 972 area code, and ad for McLean
Hearing Center, both of which lead to Dallas TX, so:
KTCK-FM, FLOWER MOUND TX, SPORTS RADIO 1310 & 96.7, THE TICKET, 90/90
kW, 621 m

1809, on 95.3, sports talk, and not // KOKC 1520 so not its OKC
translator which is normally audible, and since there are no sports on
95.3 in TX or OK:
KWKN, WAKEENEY KS, TALK/SPORTS, 95.3 THE COWBOY, 100/100 kW, 158.0 m
Wakeeney is on I-70 closer to Hays than Colby, 341 km = 212 mi away

1815, on 93.7, Spanish overrides KSPI Stillwater OK, ads for Kroger,
Six Flags, Telemundo 69. 1819, 214 AC, oldnavy.com in Spanish; 1820
``La Raza 93.7``, so it is:
KNOR, KRUM TX, Spanish, REGIONAL MEXICAN, LA RAZA 93.7, 43/43 kW,
600.2 m Rock --- Krum is the home of DXer John Callarman, and KNOR was
once the call of 1400 in NORman OK.

1816, on 93.7 vs KNOR briefly, English ad for Perryton:
KEYE-FM, PERRYTON TX, ADULT CONTEMPORARY, 93.7 MY FM, 8.5/8.5 kW,
122.6 m --- Perryton is nowhere near The Metroplex, rather in the NE
corner of the TX Panhandle, 262 km = 163 statute miles due west of
Enid.

1822, on 95.3, KOKC translator // 1520 has regained control from KWKN,
commercial for far-right extremist Newsmax TV net which also has a
magazine and is pimping a ``World Band Radio`` worth $ 30 which ``may
save your life``, apparently a wind-up, as a premium for subscribing.
Yes, where would they be without their daily doses of the dislikes of
Alex Jones, Brother Scare, Hal Turner or Bishop Bob Biermann? BTW, is
1520 back up to 50 kW yet? (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, May 6 at 0622, R. Vanuatu, S8/S5 with island music
on 3 x 3945 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10010 USB, May 7 at 0607, weak 2-way seems in English.
Could this be legit aero? A bit close to WWV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. May 6 at 1504, I`m scanning the 13 m band for any sign
of broadcast carrier activity -- and I do find JBA carriers here:
21695 could be a real station, but nothing scheduled now; 21743; then
a bunch at 21599, 21551, 21503, 21435, 21407, 21359, 21311. Before I
get to the end of this sequence I`ve realized that they are at exact
48-kHz intervals, including 21743 altho missed 21647. Probably some
local device, but what could be doing this? They are weaker than the
only real SWBC, 21525 WRMI. They are all very close to `even` kHz, but
are not integral multiples of only 48 kHz; and I don`t find a similar
splay on 16 mb (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. RF 11, 12, 14, 20, 31, 32, 35, 36, BAD DTV signals into
STB on channels normally vacant as tropo is up; only 35 starts to
decode a bit, but not enough to ID, May 7 at 1520 UT. Probably as far
as The Metroplex TX whence I`m getting FM DX later; see U S A (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALBANIA [non]. 7730, Thu May 5 at 0600, R. Tirana in English via
WRMI, good direct with feature on Eid+, last day of Ramadan. It seems
that only on UT Weds this is replaced by RFPI in Russian. Now there is
also a noise field surrounding, about 7710-7750.

** CUBA. 11670, May 6 at 0604, RHC English! S9+10 on unscheduled
frequency, while all the 6`s are OFF; 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, and 5040
is in Spanish. Ivo Ivanov had already found English on 11670 & 13740
at 0507 May 4. Now 13740 is something else, but at 0609 I find RHC
English on 11880, S9+20/30 overmodulated, distorted and somewhat
breaking up. 11670 is supposed to be a Spanish-only frequency much
earlier in the day, and 11880 only at 22-24 including English at 23.
Something`s always wrong at RHC: but maybe they are experimenting with
higher bands for summer nights, which does make more sense
propagationally. The Other Side:

Castroism's fear of 'the masses' prompts it to shorten lines in Havana

exasperating lack of food, is a dangerous time bomb for any autocracy.

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, May 6 at 1501, V of Martyrs Korea, Maldives
service with preacher in English, Bible story about some temple,
S9/+10 direct. Wish we could get a fix on its secret site, but would
be wasting my time trying TDOA for spurious ``most likelies``.
Meanwhile, RBA on 11825, music for Myanmar is only S4/S6. 11620 stays
in English a while longer, but by 1511 when I tune in via Coimbatore,
India remote, it`s the YL in Dhivehi, S9/+20, only slightly stronger
than I am getting her directly here, *way* off the target area. At
1524 it sounds like she utter the English term ``book banning``. 1529
switch to strumusic, and English sign-off just in time for `Laudeter
Iesus Christus` from weaker Vatican Arabic at *1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ROMANIA. 7375, May 6 after 0300, NO signal of RRI English to N
America, as I follow my own advice to listen. That`s one of the
disabled transmitters but still on the sked; however, VG on 9850 into
UTwente, and likely into ENAm too, but I`m too busy to pay attention
to content (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, May 5 at 0501-0507, UR1 VG via WRMI with
English `Ukraine: Security Issue` for Day 70? of Russia`s war.

7730, May 6 at 0500.7-0506.2, YP1 via WRMI, English segment this time
by the OM announcer with heavy accent who speaks way too fast,
difficultizing comprehension (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

First broadcasts of WOR 2137 confirmed, UT Friday May 6 at 0130 on
WRMIs: 7730 S9+15/20 into UTwente, but several words of closing
overridden by WRMI even tho I have allowed 3.5 seconds silence at end
of my file; VG o 5850 cirect.

Also confirmed Friday May 6 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S8/9+10 direct with
Cuban pulse jamming! But generally atop it and readable if you put up
with it. There is no excuse for jamming this time of day unless it``s
deliberately against me. Next: Friday 1815 on IRRSes, as above (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4790, May 6 at 0406 tune-in UTwente, WBCQ Radio Angela is
audible way off the back in Europe, but the uteblaaps are too, and
even louder there than in N America. The same sound with the noise
pitch descending slightly each time, but now they are 2 seconds long
rather than one, and are bursting every few seconds instead of exactly
3:00, 4:00 or 5:00 minutes apart! Very annoying. They register S9+15
while BCQ is only 7. Then I also hear some very weak CW in background,
seems like a repeating marker but uncopiable.

0418 I`ve switched to Maryland SDR and surprised to find WBCQ still on
air instead of quitting at `0410 After Midnight`. Now it`s a rock
music show with a DJ. I watch the uteblaaps on the waterfall, very
interesting display. They now make perfect squares, which I think
means they are 2 seconds long by 2 kHz wide. Reading the calibration,
as closely as I can tell, they are in three spots: 4782-4784,
4789-4791 = right on BCQ; and 4798-4800. Note these are asymmetrical.
Each burst is a combination of any two of them, seemingly at random:
left+right, left+mid, or mid+right.

The BCQ signal runs past 0430, but off at 0455 check, while the blaaps
are still running, now no longer square but elongated, i.e. almost 3
kHz wide, roughly: 4782-4785, 4788.5-4791.5, 4798-4801. 0532 recheck,
now they are back to 2 x 2. No doubt all this is significant if one
only knew what`s really going on such as Forex arbitrage info (Glenn
