RECEIVER PROBLEMS: my main rx, Icom R75, originally ``instant-on``,
began taking up to a minute to warm up several months ago and this has
increased little by little, so that now it takes almost 3 minutes. By
warm-up, I mean fully tunable. It seems to be receiving signals
without much delay; it`s the audio output to speaker or phones which
lags. I fear this may get worse and worse. Now am tempted to leave it
on for hours between sessions, but not sure which would be worse: more
on-and-off, or protracted on without use. Other annoying problem is
tendency of frequency keypad to bring up not only the one I punch, but
an adjacent number; or sometimes Enter before I am quite finished.
Any advice? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 10080, Nov 29 at 0315, RHC harmonic again, S5/S9, tnx to tip
from Jorge Freitas in Brasil, posted to WOR iog at 0310:

``10080 29/Nov 0304 CUBA Radio Habana Cuba. Same program as 11760.
Could be second harmonic of 5040, but 5040 doesn't have any signal
here or on SDRs. 73 Jorge Freitas, Feira de Santana, Bahia 12°14´S
38°58´W - Brasil, Tecsun PL-660, XHDATA, Antenna Delta Loop and LW 20
meters``

However, here, unlike my previous logs with nothing more than a JBA
carrier, fundamental 5040 is also to be heard louder, S7/S9, but
nothing on 11760. Propagation must be iffy. Harold Frodge was hearing
nothing in the Great Lakes - Michigan, unknown if referring to 10080
only or all three.

10050, Nov 29 at 0727 my next check, 10080 is off but 2 x 5025 Radio
Rebelde is on! S9/+10, and 5025 is back after a long absence, at
S8/S9. Then Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reported, via SDR Half Moon Bay CA,
assuming all these are ``BAUta 100 kW 083&263 to Cuba``:

``Radio Habana Cuba in Spanish/English/Spanish on 5040 khz & 2nd hx
10080 kHz via Bauta, November 29:
0519&0559 on 10080 Spanish/English. Good
0519&0559 on 5040 Spanish/English. Poor
from 0659 on 10080 Spanish is unscheduled. Good
from 0659 on 5040 Spanish is unscheduled. Poor

And assuming these are ``BAUta 100 kW / non-dir to Cuba``:
``Reception of Radio Rebelde in Spanish on 5025 kHz & 2nd hx 10050 kHz
via Bauta, November 29:
0715&0758 on 10050 Spanish. Very good
0715&0758 on 5025 Spanish. Weak/fair``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Nov 29 at 2007, RHC English again instead of break,
much better here S9/+10 than // supposed only frequency 15140. Too
bad, but 11760 gone before 2049 recheck. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 9955, Nov 29 at 1616, WRMI with anti-Communist rant in
Spanish, S9 vs NO jamming. Not // 11860 Martí. Another secret
broadcast of R. República? Yes, as 1624 talking about trabajadores,
and a ``paro nacional`` = general strike? 1625 ID with schedule on
9490 and 5800 but no other SW frequencies; 1628 now says also on La
Poderosa 670 = WWFE Miami, Sundays at 11 pm. Previous announcement
included some other nights but not every. 1629 resumes ``derecho al
trabajo`` subject. Checking again WRMI skedgrid, transmission hours
atop shows 9955 continuously with System B, while contradictorily,
SysB sked shows it ``internet only`` at these hours with no content
given!

9955, next check Nov 29 at 1904, still/again? anti-Communist rant in
Cuban Spanish, S7/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Nov 29 at 2133, R. Cairo, S9+35 into UTwente with
huge hum, just barely suppressed/distorted modulation, unreadable and
marginally recognizable as Englishish intonation. Something`s always
egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Nov 29 at 0730, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati; only other 9/kHz split JBA MW carrier is 774 at 0732 making
a slow beat of two signals, i.e. remnant of SPAINs (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Nov 29 by 2308, no VOT signal into UTwente; nor
any East Turkistan either - until cut on *2311.4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565, Nov 29 at 1604, JJBBA CW, surely the 1.8 milliwatt
HIFER beacon K6FRC in California; vs much stronger CODAR swirshes at
the rate of exactly twice per second (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Among several 10m ham beacons, Nov 29 at
1910-1916, with listings from WI5V site, first two almost same

WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2166 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday November 29 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S5/S8 direct; S9/+10 into

** U S A. 15770, Nov 29 at 2008, WRMI with Spanish program about the
disappeared R. Suecia, including lots of clips, some in English. It`s
`La Rosa de Tokio` as scheduled this hour Tuesdays. Sounds familiar;
altho `new`, I search out previous LRT publicity that R. Sweden would
be topic: weekends of 7/17/22, 12/26/21, 5/22/21, 6/21/20. Older ones
maybe different, but suspect reruns lately, never specified. I still
haven`t figured out what Tokyo Rose has to do with any of this. Direct
at first, it`s poor, but at 2050 into Maryland SDR, VG S9/+5.
9955, WRMI: See CUBA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, Nov 29 at 0729, JBA carrier from RV 2 X 3945; 11835,
JJBBA carrier on 3 X 3945 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6810, Nov 29 at 0725, JBA carrier, often noted but not
logged. If harmonic, possible fundamentals: 3405, 2270, 1702.5, 1362,
1135, 972.86, 851.25, 756.67, 681, 619.09, 567.5, 523.85 --- all of

** CUBA. 11760, Nov 28 at 0735, S9+20 of dead air, and 11670, S9+10 of
same. Surely RHC transmitters running way late, rather than mistuned
second harmonix on 10050, 10080 --- not heard again since my original
reports. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13700, Nov 28 at 1627, this RHC still on overtime in Spanish,
S9/S7 but no spurblobs today. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Nov 29 at 0003, dead air from RHC. Should be the `Mesa
Redonda` alternative // 11950 which is not dead and not // mainstream
11760. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Nov 28 at 2211, no English signal into UTwente
from R. Cairo. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Nov 28 at 0729, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati; even weaker one on 1098 which would be V7AB, Marshall Is.,
but nothing detectable on 1017, A3Z Tonga. Only other 9/kHz split JBA
carrier is 711, likely remnant of 300 kW TA Morocco. Axually that is
in occupied WESTERN SAHARA, q.v. northern part but well south of the
`border` with imperialist Morocco (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 15355, Nov 28 at 1958 open carrier, 2000 undermodulated
music and French, S8/9+10. It`s AWR via Talata at 2000-2030, and would
have followed Igbo/Ibo at 1930. Did not recognize music as the usual
AWR theme. Not noticeably off-frequency, either! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MALI. 17880.005, Nov 28 at 1635 song S7/S9, talk in Arabic, the
SSOB even surpassing 17790 WRMI. Sounded further off-frequency than
found upon measurement. It`s CRI Bamako II relay at 16-17 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.022, Nov 28 at 1631, S5/S7 of talk.
Listed as VOA Swahili this semihour via Pinheira. This USAGM site is
one of the most capable of offfrequenciness (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Nov 28 at 2300, not by a computer, finding REE direct
to NAm is VP; intro of feature to be something about Poland/Ukraine.
Of course we could probably find it later on their podcast archive
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2166 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
November 27 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, Villa Estense, 1323 kHz
only, not on 918 or 207 kHz, neither of which heard for some weeks;
S9+10 into nearby Noale SDR, but with fast rippling SAH from not much
modulated co-channel carrier. Preceding IRRS ID again claims 7125
instead of 7295 on SW, and 9510, but none of these on at this hour.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, JBA carrier
direct but S7/S9 into Maryland SDR; by 0055, improved direct to S9/+10
vs HNL at S9.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 28 at 0130 on WRMI 5950, S6/S8 into
Georgia SDR with pulse jamming ACI from 5955, which is an hoary relic
of the era long ago when Radio República was on 5954+ via Costa Rica!
But S9+30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed promptly at 0400 UT Monday November 28 on Area 51
webcast; also WBCQ 5130 -63 Hz = 5129.937, JBA into Missouri SDR; JBA
to VP with ACI de 6165 CUBA, into Maryland SDR averaging -65 Hz =
5129.935. The difference could of course be due to slightly different
receiver calibrations. Next:

0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW

** U S A. 15750-15755-15760, Nov 28 at 1629, WINB DRM noise this time
on the bottom half, hybrid tones on top half, opposite configuration
from last log on 7325-7330-7335; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, Nov 28 at 0733, JBA carrier from RV X 3, but not
detectable RV X 2 = 7890 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** WESTERN SAHARA. Only 9/kHz split JBA MW carrier, Nov 28 at 0729
when I am getting TPs, see KIRITIMATI, is a TA on 711, likely remnant
of 300 kW Morocco. Axually that is in occupied WESTERN SAHARA,
northern part but well south of the `border` with imperialist Morocco.
Timeanddate.com shows a.k.a. ``El Aaiun, Iqlim Al Uyun, Iqlīm Al
`Uyūn, Laayoun``, so when is sunrise there today? 0720 UT! Latest
sunrise will be 0741, Jan 4-19. We are already at earliest sunset,
1753 UT from Nov 26 to Dec 6. In Northern Hemisphere, these are always
about a month apart due to Earthly oblateness, but combine for
shortest day on the Winter Solstice (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 21599.22 approx., Nov 28 at 1639, JBA carrier, only sig
on 13mb besides 21630 BBC Ascension. This is probably a local birdie
as nothing is listed now on 21600, but logged just in case. Algeria
and Bulgaria prefer `even` frequencies. Later, still there at 1952, so
never mind (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Nov 28 at 0735, S9+20 of dead air, and 11670, S9+10 of
same. Surely RHC transmitters running way late, rather than mistuned
second harmonix on 10050, 10080 --- not heard again since my original
reports. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13700, Nov 28 at 1627, this RHC still on overtime in Spanish,
S9/S7 but no spurblobs today. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Nov 29 at 0003, dead air from RHC. Should be the `Mesa
Redonda` alternative // 11950 which is not dead and not // mainstream
11760. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Nov 28 at 2211, no English signal into UTwente
from R. Cairo. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Nov 28 at 0729, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati; even weaker one on 1098 which would be V7AB, Marshall Is.,
but nothing detectable on 1017, A3Z Tonga. Only other 9/kHz split JBA
carrier is 711, likely remnant of 300 kW TA Morocco. Axually that is
in occupied WESTERN SAHARA, q.v. northern part but well south of the
`border` with imperialist Morocco (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 15355, Nov 28 at 1958 open carrier, 2000 undermodulated
music and French, S8/9+10. It`s AWR via Talata at 2000-2030, and would
have followed Igbo/Ibo at 1930. Did not recognize music as the usual
AWR theme. Not noticeably off-frequency, either! (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MALI. 17880.005, Nov 28 at 1635 song S7/S9, talk in Arabic, the
SSOB even surpassing 17790 WRMI. Sounded further off-frequency than
found upon measurement. It`s CRI Bamako II relay at 16-17 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.022, Nov 28 at 1631, S5/S7 of talk.
Listed as VOA Swahili this semihour via Pinheira. This USAGM site is
one of the most capable of offfrequenciness (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Nov 28 at 2300, not by a computer, finding REE direct
to NAm is VP; intro of feature to be something about Poland/Ukraine.
Of course we could probably find it later on their podcast archive
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2166 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
November 27 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, Villa Estense, 1323 kHz
only, not on 918 or 207 kHz, neither of which heard for some weeks;
S9+10 into nearby Noale SDR, but with fast rippling SAH from not much
modulated co-channel carrier. Preceding IRRS ID again claims 7125
instead of 7295 on SW, and 9510, but none of these on at this hour.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, JBA carrier
direct but S7/S9 into Maryland SDR; by 0055, improved direct to S9/+10
vs HNL at S9.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 28 at 0130 on WRMI 5950, S6/S8 into
Georgia SDR with pulse jamming ACI from 5955, which is an hoary relic
of the era long ago when Radio República was on 5954+ via Costa Rica!
But S9+30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed promptly at 0400 UT Monday November 28 on Area 51
webcast; also WBCQ 5130 -63 Hz = 5129.937, JBA into Missouri SDR; JBA
to VP with ACI de 6165 CUBA, into Maryland SDR averaging -65 Hz =
5129.935. The difference could of course be due to slightly different
receiver calibrations. Next:

0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]
0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 15750-15755-15760, Nov 28 at 1629, WINB DRM noise this time
on the bottom half, hybrid tones on top half, opposite configuration
from last log on 7325-7330-7335; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, Nov 28 at 0733, JBA carrier from RV X 3, but not
detectable RV X 2 = 7890 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** WESTERN SAHARA. Only 9/kHz split JBA MW carrier, Nov 28 at 0729
when I am getting TPs, see KIRITIMATI, is a TA on 711, likely remnant
of 300 kW Morocco. Axually that is in occupied WESTERN SAHARA,
northern part but well south of the `border` with imperialist Morocco.
Timeanddate.com shows a.k.a. ``El Aaiun, Iqlim Al Uyun, Iqlīm Al
`Uyūn, Laayoun``, so when is sunrise there today? 0720 UT! Latest
sunrise will be 0741, Jan 4-19. We are already at earliest sunset,
1753 UT from Nov 26 to Dec 6. In Northern Hemisphere, these are always
about a month apart due to Earthly oblateness, but combine for
shortest day on the Winter Solstice (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 21599.22 approx., Nov 28 at 1639, JBA carrier, only sig
on 13mb besides 21630 BBC Ascension. This is probably a local birdie
as nothing is listed now on 21600, but logged just in case. Algeria
and Bulgaria prefer `even` frequencies. Later, still there at 1952, so
never mind (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0028 UT November 29
