Note: previous report should have been subjected April 24-25-26, not 23-24-25
** CANADA [and non]. 346 MCW kHz, April 26 at 0613 UT, dash and YXL, 500 watt ND beacon at Sioux Lookout, Ontario, JBA; only other one is the 1000 watt dash and WG on 248 MCW from Winnipeg, Manitoba. Major storm area in N America now is circa Tamaulipas. FYI, besides the high atmospheric noise levels of the season, I am still stymied in the 380-420 kHz area by protracted elevated noise from local line or unknown device. I did just manage to detect on 417 MCW, 25 watt IY from Charles cItY, Iowa. Even under ideal conditions, I`m at point where any new LW/MW beacon logs are sparse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 21530, April 26 at 0054, JBA caarrier; 18900 JBA music S6-S8; 18970 weaker, all are known CNR1 jammers vs Sound of Hope; and 17560 JBA carrier, CNR1 jammer against VOA Chinese via Philippines this hour only. Interesting propagation beacons over the dayside (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 15800, April 26 at 1458, CNR1 with good strength, timesignal to 1500*. Aoki shows only this jammer vs SOH at 0000-1600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6165, April 26 at 0618, S9+30 of dead air in English from RHC; only other one is 6060, S9+10/20 of English with some hum. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 26 at 2245, VOT is on and even audible direct with music, fair S9/+10 as long as tuned LSB to evade RTTY USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 1386, April 27 at 0000-0005, UR1 via LITHUANIA, with `Ukraine: Security Issue` English segment, good into UTwente, but with noise bursts mostly on with brief breaks, not jamming? Not so clear into Bryansk, Russia, SDR, but constant background noise level no different than adjacent frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2135 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday April 26 at 0030 on WRMIs into Knoxville SDR: 9395 S9+30, 9455 S9+10. Crisper modulation on 9395, lower fi with some warble on 9455. At 0057 direct: 9455 S9+10/20, 9395 S8/9+10. Also confirmed Tuesday April 26 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9 direct and undermodulated but no jamming audible at first; by 2257 jamming is building up, but by 2309 R. Libertad is still well audible here atop it. Next: 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 Thanks this week for financial support from Joe Caberlin, Ontario, for some US$ to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA One may also contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US$ , to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0113 UT April 27

Tuesday, April 26 2022
** AUSTRAL ISLANDS. 28485 USB, April 24 at 2210, TX5N making very quick contacts ``plus 5/10``. Where? Really part of French Polynesia, but hams may have declared them a separate radio country? QRZ.com:
``TX5N Austral Islands flag Austral Islands Login is required for additional detail. QSL: M0URX.com Raivavae - Austral Islands DX-pedition TX5N.net Several members of the Perseverance DX Group (PDXG) will activate Raivavae Island (Austral Islands), French Polynesia, April 15 – April 29, 2022 for approximately 12 operating days. The plan is to have radios on the air continually, as propagation allows. The call sign TX5N was issued for this project. Team members include: Steve W1SRD, Doris K0BEE, Rob N7QT, Melanie N7BX, Heye DJ9RR, Walt N6XG and Gene K5GS. The team is planning to operate 160m – 10m (including 60m), CW, SSB and Digital. The team will meet in Papeete, Tahiti on April 12th and fly to Raivavae on April 16th, returning to Papeete on April 28th. The team expects to make between 60,000 – 80,000 QSOs The operating location, Tama Raivavae Resort, will provide a small bungalow for each team member and a separate building for radio operations. Tama Raivavae has hosted many past DX-peditions. Equipment will include Elecraft K3 transceivers with 500 and 1.5K watt linear amplifiers. Antennas will be verticals and a hexbeam, antenna placement will be on the beach. We expect to have some internet availability for daily log uploads to M0URX.com This project is self-funded by the team. We welcome donations via the Donate button or with OQRS to offset equipment shipping expenses. We are hoping that Covid doesn’t interfere with the project.`` Strangely, now hardly any activity on the official 27 MHz CB, but a few Latin freebanders circa 28.4-28.5 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA [and non]. 13755, April 25 at 1454, two Chinese signals mixing with fast SAH. EiBi shows at 1400-1500 it`s CNR1 jamming vs VOA Mandarin via SAIPAN, both on days 135 only and this is Day 1 = Monday. But contrarily, Aoki shows on days 246, and this is Day 2 = Monday, RFA Cantonese via unknown site; which is it? They agree that after 1500 daily, 13755 should be only CRI Mandarin via Kashgar, East Turkistan, standard denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 21530, April 25 at 2212, JBA carrier unseems birdie, while there is no 21525 overrun today from WRMI. A similar fadey JBA carrier on 18900 --- both of which match up in Aoki/NDXC as CNR1 jammer frequencies vs Sound of Hope, Taiwan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** COSTA RICA. 28510 USB, April 24 at 2211, TI5VMJ calling CQ, QRZ. And random 10m bandscan 24 hours later, April 25 at 2207, hits him again with CQ on 28490 USB, and contact. Only a few other phone signals on band, 28460 algo and a Spanish pileup on 28315. QRZ.com: ``TI5VMJ Costa Rica flag Costa Rica JEI SI JUAN CARLOS "JC" MURILLO VINDAS 24-4059 SAN PEDRO DE POAS ALAJUELA COSTA RICA 20801 Costa Rica`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 11655, April 25 at 1455, NHK IS, S6 with flutter. Bengali is about to start direct from Yamata (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, April 25 at 1459, I`m standing by for V of Martyrs Korea to start: *1500 cuts on with open carrier, 1500.5 cuts on modulation in progress, usual Christian discussion in English, mainly speaking the same one unID preacher; still no Dhivehi? Did not listen to entire broadcast. S7/S9 with flutter direct. No ID or introduxion of any sort. Time to check the references about this. Still *nothing* in latest HFCC of April 24, nor ITU monitoring but which was about the first quarter. EiBi classifies as clandestine, i.e. because Sunni Islam is the only state religion in target? but /XUU means unidentified site: ``11620 1500-1530 CLA Voice of Martyrs E MLD /XUU`` Aoki NDXC puts it in AUStralia, i.e. RBA Kununurra; unless Shepparton be revived from the dead for this, but do they *know* it`s KNX or just going along with some of our hypothesizing?: ``11620 1500-1530 AUS Voice of Martyrs Eng 1-7`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** RUSSIA [and non]. Following news of explosions in Bryansk, as the war is hitting withing Russia, I check one of the few KiwiSDRs in western Russia, the ``Crazy`` one of R3YBN, April 25 at 2242. Yes, it is still active but not getting much on SW. The 5.8-7.2+ MHz area appears to be blocked on it, especially the contentious 40m hamband, but some broadcaster on 7300; and MW 1386 is getting Ukrainske Radio via LITHUANIA just fine, S9, ID at 2300. Bryansk is SW of Moskva, about equidistant close to the real borders of Ukraine, and of Belarus` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 21310 USB, April 24 at 2222, EH4WRD calling CQ, QRZ. ``EH4WRD Spain flag Spain World Radio Day Apdo. de Correos: 69 San Fernando de Henares - MADRID, - 28830 Spain QSL: EA4RCH`` QRZ.com leads to this: https://www.radioclubhenares.org/eh4wrd/ Evidently I caught it toward the very end of its World Radio Day span from April 8 ending April 24. Op voice sounds like a YL, but no info found about handles or home calls. She`s laughing occasionally as if with someone in the shack rather than on air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 25 at 2200, no signal from VOT English direct, just some RTTY; but at 2238 into UTwente, nice Tuerkisch musik at S9+30/45 on 9830.021. Unclear whether it oncame late or simply not propagating at all this far into nominal target (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, re UR1 via WRMI, UT Sunday April 24 at 0500: ``Glenn: There WAS an English segment. It started at about 39 minutes after the hour in my recorded UR1 Internet stream. So quite a bit later in the hour than usual. And, yes, there was some nice religious music. Could even have been a service as you suggest. -- Richard Langley`` --- and also this: ``I had a discussion about this with Walt Salmaniw a few weeks back. I had figured out that the Ukrainian word for dot (transliterated) is "krapka" and thought the announcement might be an e-mail address. Walt said it's a website: "It’s encouraging civilians to sign up (everyone can contribute to defeating russia). Проти.??.go.ua. Proty means against. I couldn’t make out the second word. Indeed, krapka means period or dot." It would be nice if we could get the full URL to check it out. -- Richard Langley`` And I missed checking on UT Monday April 25. UT Tuesday April 26 at 0001 I am listening to 1386 via Bryansk SDR - see RUSSIA. And there is the English segment with the YL announcer until 0008, recommended!! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2135 monitoring: confirmed Sunday April 24 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, steady S9+7 into nearby Noale KiwiSDR; no signals this time on 918 or 207 kHz. Also confirmed Sunday April 24 at 2230 on WRMI 5950, S8/S9 into Maryland SDR, but with considerable ACI from 5945 rock music, which is Romania in English. Into Knoxville SDR less of that and S9+20. This time continues instead of a replacement show on program sked. If anyone run across any other unsked time on WRMI, do let me know. Also confirmed UT Monday April 25 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into Knoxville, S9+10 i.e. less fading into Maryland, both of which are considerably off the southwesterly beam. BTW, just before, concluding at 0029 was Antena DX from Chispa Estéreo in Panamá; which is supposed to repeat at 0300 Monday on same, as I noticed too late. Also confirmed UT Monday April 25 from 0259 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, S9+10/20 direct with considerable ACI from 6165 RHC. Measured at 0247 on 6159.941, but perpetual offset does not help, LSB tuning still required. Why in the world are two SW stations in ``North America`` only 5.059 kHz apart? Stubbornness on both sides? Or failure to recognize the opposition? Next: 0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW 2230 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed] 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 Thanks this week for financial support from Joe Caberlin, Ontario, for some US$ to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA One may also contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US$ , to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 21525, April 24 at 2220, S1-S5 open carrier. Got to be the only 21525 station, WRMI-7, supposed to run 15-21 UT with nothing but PAB`s Radio Africa including some despicable dead gospel huxters. Forgot to turn it off? Left on for propagation study? Sporadic E must be in play boosting it to much more than the usual JBA carrier to here. *Still* on at 0047 check April 25, and now it`s S9! Still on at 0126 check; 0158 JBA, and inaudible maybe off by 0215 check. Yet April 25 at 1506, no 21525 signal at all (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7490v), April 25 at 2300, secret Monday semi-repeat of `UBMP` on WBCQ webcast, featuring melodic music for Ramadan, as Imam UB declares there is nothing anti-musical in the Qur`an. Chopped off at 2330 for `Camp Constitution Radio` with no extraneous commercial any more. [and non] BTW, earlier in Ramadan, the 2000 kW in NW corner of Sa`udi Arabia on 1521 kHz was reported reactivated, presumably all-night for Ramadan. Is it still? as Ramadan lasts until May 1. When 24h normally, I`d sometimes hear its het upon 1520 KOKC even here in OK, and might again in our evenings, if active. Well, April 25 at 2255, nothing on 1521 into Cyprus or Kuwait SDRs unlike some nearby frequencies altho maybe not ideal for MW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0014 UT April 26

** CHINA. 13530, April 24 at 1416, CNR1 S9/+10 QRMing CODAR; also at 1417, S8/S9 on 13020, JBA carriers on 13190 & 13130. At 1424 also on 15800, S9/+10 // 13530; and S5/S8 on 16100. All well-established spots to jam Sound of Hope, except not listed in Aoki 13190, rather in that area 13130 where I usually detect it; 13160 and 13170. All of those are among the latest huge SOH/jammer monitoring by Wolfgang Bueschel (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13740, April 24 at 1415, S9 of dead air from RHC, then off*; while 13700 is S9+20 undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 13740, April 24 at 0629, African language the SSOB S7/9+10, drumming, ``RFI`` pronounced in French and off 0630*. It was Hausa. North Atlantic path is becoming less and less dark overnight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE. 9420, April 24 at 0506, still NO signal from VOG/EPT/ERT. This is when they used to air Greek Orthodox services Sunday mornings; yet it`s GrOx Easter but nothing special as an exception, tsk2, limited to MF 12-17 UT only. At least I cannot accuse them of violating Separation of Church and State (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11775, April 24 at 0626, Cuban-style pulse jamming atop weak station, presumed Denge Welat as now scheduled only here via BULGARIA at 0530-1700, due east from ``Secretbrod`` as Ivo calls Kostinbrod. No explanation why Cuba would jam this frequency, never? used by Radio Marti, but used to be Caribbean Beacon, Anguilla. Turkiye is presumably more interested in jamming DW, normally with music on now vacant former 11530/11540; so has Cuban technology been exported? BTW, I`m astounded to spot in HFCC that WWCR has registered 11775 at 1200-2100 on the 46-degree antenna, i.e. #1 which is really on 15825. Anything else imaginary? Plenty of alternatives: 15795 at 09-22; 12180 at 12-24; 7390 at 12-20; 6115 at 01-21 in addition to axual usage 21-01; 6090 at 21-12, 3215 at 21-12 beyond axual 01-11; 3195 at 21-01. Note both 11775 and 6090, the two ex-Anguilla channels, by the same frequency manager (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6915 USB, April 24 at 0044, S9/+10 pirate music overcomes much of the high storm noise level --- NE/SW front across central OK with tornado threats to OKC, Stillwater, but nothing around Enid. All four major OKC TV stations blow away their primetime for wall-to-wall storm coverage; KWTV especially boastful about its equipment. 0045 Wolverine Radio ID, and at 0055, then ``Let the Good Times Roll``; 0102 quick comparison to 7490 WBCQ about same on meter but W.R. louder; when I get back at 0103, SSTV underway, and at 0105 as soon as that`s over without a beat, DJ as Doctor DJ and/or Drunken DJ Radio. Same transmitter? He even mentions Wolverine too. Mike is lo-fi but talx a lot more than Wolv. Does not sound drunken to me: try harder? 0110 outros songs unlike Wolv, `Once in a Lifetime` by Talking Heads. 0113 shoutouts to reports on HF Underground. More songs. 0124 again referring to Wolverine as well as DDJR. 0126 first of two SSTVs; 0128 backstory about it and 0129 second SSTV. I do not recheck until 0325, when 6915 is *still* on acknowledging HFU reports including a request from Bermuda. Here are the HFU reports of both stations, no doubt including some images so I don`t have to: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,96301.0.html Lots and lots of them, with playlists. Later: WDDR is on 6900, which started with WDOG, confusing: see below report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6950 USB, Apr 24 at 0326, another pirate on here with rock at S9 direct; 0335 SFX noises like revving, then screaming music; 0345 via Missouri SDR, SSTV; 0346 KDOG, K-dog ID, music. See: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,96308.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6900 USB, Apr 24 at 0353, a third station while 6915 and 6950 are still running. Via Missouri remote: Rock, 0354 and over music at 0355, WDOG ID in Morse code. See: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,96307.0.html 0400 another ID with yips. But at 0425 the 6900 station IDs as WDDR - Drunken DJ Radio, earlier on 6915. Now only 6900 remains on. At 0437 says he has finished his bottle of wine. 0500 still on, 0502 says is getting a buzz, will play one more tune, HFU replies; 0508 now is pulling out one more one more tune from YT, as closing windows, now sounds inebriated. Is really off by 0515 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, April 24 at 0500, UR1 via WRMI, no English segment today, understandably, since it`s Orthodox Easter: some lovely music, a lasting legacy of religionism. It`s 8 am in Ukraine, so I wonder if this be a live E-morning service; or maybe recorded from previous evening, if any. After 0515 mostly UU talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2135 monitoring: confirmed Saturday April 23 at 1930 on WRMI 15770, S9 into UTwente but avoid RTTY warble on LSB, or reduce bandwidth <3.5 kHz. By 1957 has faded to S5/6. Also confirmed Saturday April 23 at 1946 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, VG S9+8 into nearby SDR, ending at 2002 so started about 1933. Also confirmed UT Sunday April 24 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into TWR RGV SDR; S9 direct but JBA vs high OK storm noise level. Also confirmed UT Sunday April 24 at 0336 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+20 direct but in hi storm noise level, about 3 minutes into so started circa 0333; at 0344 via nearby SDR, S9+10 but better S/N against storm crashes. Also confirmed UT Sunday April 24 at 1337 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292 Germany, 9670, about 7 minutes into the 1330 airing, S9 into UTwente, and zero signal direct. Next: 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 918 & 1323-Italy 2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [to be canceled? still Apr 17] 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] 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 Thanks this week for financial support from Joe Caberlin, Ontario, for some US$ to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA One may also contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US$ , to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, April 24 at 1410, WRMI S9 but quite undermodulated, against nohuxter more apropos than the Tourette`s screamster Terry Blalock!

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, April 23 at 1457, NO LRA36 signal into four Brasil SDRs, another Saturday absent as in all of April. Still no reply to my fourth email inquiry, which did not bounce (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL [and non]. 28394 USB, April 22 at 2220, PU2WDX São Paulo in contact with 6Y5CR in Jamaica, both audible in quick check of 10mb. 28420 USB, April 22 at 22232, VK3CWB in NW Victoria contacting Bill in Florida, and lots more signals. First time Australia heard in long time and simul with Brasil and Jamaica (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, April 23 at 1605-1630, V of Martyrs Korea, usual sermon in English, S9/+20 into new Coimbatore, India KiwiSDR, closing ID and off in time for *1630 Vatican Arabic with much weaker signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA [non]. 9450 & 9890, April 23 at 1900-1909, NO signals into Kuwait or South African SDRs, checking for R. Ominira Yoruba as in last report, which was unheard on 9450 April 21, to which these replies; from Wolfgang Bueschel: ``only Sat/Sun service? this read on Nagoya Japanese userlist1 data file of PERSEUS SDR software file accessories: A22 Shortwave Frequency List April 21 2022, 1000 UTC: http://www1.s2.starcat.ne.jp/ndxc/pc/us/nda/userlist1.txt 9890 kHz 1900-2400 G Radio Ominira Yoruba Yor Woofferton 17 73 wb df5sx`` --- the 17 means Sunday & Saturday And from Kai Ludwig April 22: ``9890 kHz was the frequency where these broadcasts appeared in June 2021. They were supposed to run either Sat and Sun or perhaps Fri, Sat, Sun. First transmission was on June 6, and on June 18 the whole thing was already cancelled again, with no further explanations being given. So this Perseus software entry is a karteileiche and 9450 kHz rather the frequency now reserved for attempts to sell this airtime. It would of course not hurt to check if anything appears tonight or tomorrow, but I would not be surprised if this turns out to be as substantial as the wishlist registrations for BBC Russian and 16 hours of English to eastern Europe...`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, Apr 23 at 1912, R. Svoboda in Russian VG into Khimki, Russia SDR, S9+15/35 with no jamming audible; the crowd-funded `Shortwaves for Freedom` relay via secret site believed to be ARMENIA; just checking, still going strong; altho slightly distorted modulation and crackle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, April 23 at 0500-0507, UR1 via WRMI. This time only a brief UU language announcement before switch to English, `Ukraine: Security Issue`. It always includes a website in .ua, but the word for `dot` is a lot more complex I have yet to fathom (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2135 monitoring: confirmed Friday April 22 at 1815 on IRRS SW via BULGARIA, 7290; despite `SW Report` having started at 1811, but that 30-minute show chopped off at 1815 for IRRS ID & WOR. S9/+10 on 7290 into UTwente; also via AM Italia, 1323 kHz into nearby Noale SDR, but nothing on 918 or 207 kHz. Some QRMusic under and at 1825 that overcomes in German talk from Romania minority service. Nothing audible on 14580 = 2 x 7290 into UTwente, except for RTTY warble on the USB. Also confirmed Friday Apr 22 at 2030.4 on AM Italia, now both 1323 at S9+10 and 918 kHz S9+18, no QRM. There was music fill at 2025, 2030 IRRS canned ID asking for reports to the Milano PO box, despite Ron Norton online publicity denying that postal mail is accepted!
