** CUBA. 9600, Oct 19 at 0654, RHC Spanish, VG S9+10, starting
deportes report. Quite a while since I`ve found RHC on any overtime
frequency. Missing from Aoki but EiBi shows Spanish to S America at
00-05 only. Also absent from ITU latest A23 sked as of July 18, nor
B23. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
2213)

** KOREA NORTH. 11735, Oct 19 at 0710, very distorted talk at S6/S8,
presumed VOK. Aoki shows nothing else on 11735 at any time, this hour
in Russian; EiBi adds Zanzibar with poor audio at 1459-2100, but have
seen no reports of it for many month (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6200, Oct 19 at 0633, JBA carrier, presumed pirate Hikari

** U S A. 9330, Oct 18 at 1511, World`s Last Chance Radio on WBCQ-6,
in pseudo-scientific discussion of how the earth is flat, as looking
at the stars surely confirms, Polaris visible in the south, the stars
being very nearby in the firmament. So ridiculing them as ``Flat
Earthers`` is still very much appropriate. Allan Weiner would never do
that but often reminds us he is a ``man of science`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, Wed Oct 18 at 0654, WWCR-4 is on with unID gospel
huxter, not // 5850 WRMI so not TOMBS. This transmitter had been on
overnight only on UT Sat & Sun for TOMBS. WWCR-4 on 5890 could be on
anytime between 02 and 12. For axual scheduling, rather than 24/7
registered availability, we must look instead at the program
schedules.
The Oct 1 version still claims 5890 is OFF THE AIR, M-F 12-7 am
Central, misconverted to UT as 06-13 rather than 05-12. Could it be
something sked on another transmitter? NO, 5935 has University
Network, not that. 4840 is TOMBS, and 3215 is supposed to be OFF just
like 5890, altho I did not recheck 3215 at this time.

WWCR has already added B23 transmitter schedules, in two steps, the
first week Oct 29-Nov 5 while USA be still on DST; and then Nov 6
onward, off DST. Same old frequencies, but shifts in changeover times
for a few of them. 5890 will be available at 03-13 UT. On this xmtr
page it appears they get the CT/UT conversions correct, unlike on the
programming pages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, Oct 18 at 2226, RCC discussion in English, so WEWN is
back on; was AWOL last time I checked. S9+10 with squeal (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Oct 18 at 1512 UT, YL DJ on KLEY Wellington KS with
slogan in passing as ``The Wave``, NOT ``Red Dirt Country`` as in
2023-2024 NRC AM Log, and rock rather than country (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 18 0657, S4/S5 talk from R. Vanuatu still here,
vanishes sometime after 0658. I don`t think they make any retuning
announcement, do they? Leaving listeners hanging unless they be
DXer-like, in the know (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search October 18 at
0111-0120 UT. This time on the NRD-545 which doesn`t tune in 9-kHz
steps - or if it can, I don`t know how; rather than the IC-R75, so I
have to manually go in USB to 1 kHz below some of them, and do get
some hits, not in exact order tuned: 684, 711, 774-2 beating, 855,
891, 909-strongest, 999-2, 1053, 1107 kHz. Likely from Spain, Western
Sahara, Algeria, UKQOGBANI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15299.87 approx., Oct 18 at 1514, JBA carrier direct as
I am checking for MiniTransAt. At 1521 I check UTwente, but it has an
S7 open carrier right on 15300.000 but rough. Was it a birdie? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

That reference shows many of the KSDA SW broadcasts are 1 kW ND including this one on 15320, rather than 100 kW with an azimuth. Those can`t be right. I would not rely on it for anything else. Glenn

** CANADA. 362 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0611 UT, dash and SB, 500 watt ND
beacon at Greater Sudbury, Ont.

346 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0714 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watt NDB at Sioux
Lookout, Ont. Tough copy but must be this regular (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Oct 17 at 2150, R. Cairo is on, YL talking English?
but distorted, S9+20 direct --- but 2152 drops to dead air.
Something`s amiss at Abis and/or cutoff at Cairo (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** GUAM. 15320, Oct 17 at 2158, open carrier with some hum, S7/9+10
direct; 2200 AWR theme, s/on in English mentions language on 15320 but
can`t copy it. Then heard ``Suara`` so Indonesian-related?

Aoki says ``Nga``, abbr. for what? EiBi says ``NJ`` to INS =
Indonesia, and his readme says ``NJ Ngaju Dayak: Indonesia-Borneo
(0.9m)[nij]``; WRTH UD under USA:AWR just calls it Dayak (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6200.00, Oct 17 at 0645, S7/S8 open carrier, presumably
Hikari FM, pirate still testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7300.09 approx., Oct 17 at 0640, JBA S7/S9 talk
probably sermon from the hamish pirate heard before only on UT Sundays
but this is Tuesday. Nothing from another one now on 7320 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785+, Oct 17 at 2200, VOT on the air, VG S9+20/30 direct
in English, some distortion during music. 2218 ``always-by-your-side``
promo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKQOGBANI. 15245, Oct 17 at 1327, no signal yet from Woofferton,
rather just barely audible carrier off-frequency, no doubt VOKorea.
This is for the one-hour special from 1330 marking the 80th
anniversary of Woofferton. 17785 eastward is on already with Encompass
IS. Back to 15245 at 1330, now it`s on aimed USward with no het or
other QRM, SINPO 45444 or S9/+20, so I listen mainly to it but 17785
is almost as good with a bit more fading. This on the NRD-545 with
100-ft E/W longwire; but heard the last few minutes sufficiently on
DX-398 portable with telescopic antenna only.

After sign/on, at 1331-1348, monolog by Dave Porter with great detail
about all the different transmitters the WOF site has used over the
years, concluding with RIZ from Croatia capable of DRM. 1348 asking
for reports to radio@encompass.tv for special eQSL and chance to win
something in a drawing. Then we hear voices of a number of other
current or former engineers and other staff; including at 1352 G8XYJ.
1358 the first YL voice, office manager; interspersed with more QSL
requests. 1402 Lilliburlero. At 1412 starts playing IS/IDs of: VOA
signing off with Yankee Doodle Dandy, London Calling, Bow Bells, RCI,
NHK, DW, RFE/RL Praha, B-B-C- chime notes, RNW. The same sequence
repeats over and over and over again until cut off the air at 1430
during NHK with no further announcements. Quite nice nostalgia, and
congrats to WOF. The WORLD OF RADIO iogroup was also flooded with
reports on this. It would have been nice if defunct sites, Rampisham,
Skelton had received similar treatment on their anniversaries (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 365 MCW kHz, Oct 17 at 0704 UT, ND beacon SYZ, new one for
me, 25 watts at Shelbyville IL. Same frequency where recently heard
AA, Fargo/Harwood ND, but dxinfocentre.com places it in Minnesota
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Tuesday October 17 at 0030 on WRMI 9395; rather rock music from before
0030 continues; Legends? I asked Jeff White about this and the
off-and-on appearance of WOR UT Mondays at 0030 on 7780. He says these
are subject to pre-emption for specials and should both be on next week.

Confirmed UT Tuesday October 17 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+12 into
Louisiana SDR starting with that 14-second uteblast override.

Also confirmed Tuesday October 17 at 1326 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Oct 17 at 0652,
obvious het direct from 711 kHz when tuned to 710, likely this as in
mwlist: ``AOE SNRT Al Idaâ Al Amazighia El Aaiún 24h Laâyoune=El Aaiún
300 kW languages: Tamazight (Berber), Tachelhit, Rifain, ar // 936``
--- AOE as country means Spanish West Africa - hardly anymore, rather
WESTERN SAHARA but occupied by MOROCCO imperialism, their station. At
this late hour, far more likely than lower-powereds further into Africa,
Europe, ME (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
