** CHILE. 18155-USB, Oct 26 at 1455, CE1CR calling CQDX 17 and working
US stations; tho fonetik, heavy accent made copy uncertain, but
probably this per QRZ.com

** CHINA. Oct 26 at 2301-2310, many signals correlating with China,
mostly JBA in Chinese, or JBA carriers; WOOB ones most likely jammers
against Sound of Hope:

9830 at 2301, checking whether VOT bonuses an extra German hour after
English, JBA carrier if LSB-tuned to avoid RTTY on USB. But CNR1
Beijing 572 site is scheduled here 2025-0100. Checking Aoki/NDXC.

17820, 17595, JBA maybe Chinese at a time 16m otherwise dead. 17595 is
CNR1 but nothing listed at 2302 on 17820.

Tuning only WOOB areas between 16300 and 12500, Skipping a number of
suspicious 19 and 22 mb inband signals, to: 15100 S3-S5; 14920, 16100;
13920 Chinese S3, 13530 Chinese S3-4, 13160 JBA, 13130, 13020, 12880,
12500 JBA carriers.

12819.85 approx., Oct 26 at 2312, one offset JBA carrier smax of Sound
of Hope itself without jamming, yet unlikely with the known high-power
jammers so weak (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15730, Oct 26 at 2303, RHC Kriyol S9 but extremely distorted.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [non]. 9705, re my Furusato no Kaze log, Ron Howard replies:
``Glenn - Per Hiroshi, it would seem you heard "Doremi No Uta" (DO -
RE - MI). Tree of the Forest Children's Choir -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNR8-ONY1mA .
Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Oct 26 tune-in at 1516 to Kashmir Civitas,
via IRRS via ROMANIA, S9+25/30 into UTwente in impassioned Urdu speech
with some English terms, ``occupying forces``, ``super-charged``, with
crowd response, also partly understrumming; 1524 cut to studio talk
with strum; 1529* cut off during talk, no IS. Tuesday-only
broadcast.

HFCC shows from next week in B-21, shifts one UT hour later to 1600
Tuesdays only on 15170, 300 kW, 79 degrees from ``Milano``. As Europe
will go off DST, but that should be irrelevant in target. I hope the
Kashmiri be prepared for the change (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SUDAN. 7206.002, Oct 26 at 0452, Arabish talk, S8-S9 somewhat
undermodulated, 0455 HOA music past 0500+, into UTwente. Sudan Radio,
the only active SW frequency from here, now under control of the
military coup. Checked direct at 0621, JBA carrier.

Nominal 7205 of course, but Manuel Mendez had it a sesquiyear ago on
7206: May 17 at 0505*-*0525. And hardly an accidental variation, maybe
to placate IARU ham intruder complaints, hi. They had blasted France
for broadcasting on 7205, sideband below 7200.000.

Sudan had an external service, same transmitter? at 1630-1900 with
English at 1715, on 9505, but believed inactive for some time.

[non] Might also be of interest to monitor target broadcaster Radio
Dabanga, A-21 scheduled: 0429-0457 7315 Vatican, 11650 Madagascar;

** UZBEKISTAN. 5829.90, Oct 26 at 1632, JBA signal into Kuwait SDR,
checking out a yesterday report of something on ``5829``. Typical
Tashkent off-frequency but just reported by Alan Holder:

``Confirmed October 26, 1600 UT. 5830 carrying the same audio as Iran
International TV live streaming, although radio is about 2 seconds
behind. Heard with excellent reception on the Kuwait KiwiSDR. Alan
Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.``

We were checking out a previous report from Brasil at 0250 of
something on ``5829``. After that I could only hear WTWW 5830.
Wolfgang Bueschel also reported:

``UZBEKISTAN, 5829.938 kHz exact measured at 1700 UT, likely via
transmitting stn of RRTM Telecom Tashkent Uzbekistan bcast center,
Iran International TV news program in Persian, read by female
presenter, S=9+5dB backlobe into southern Germany Perseus SDR unit``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0028 UT October 27

** JAPAN [non]. 9705, Mon Oct 25 at 1440, S6-S9 kid chorus of ``Doe, a
Deer, a Female Deer`` seemingly in English, so what`s this? Furusato
no Kaze, clandestine for N Korea via TAIWAN site. Then 1443
announcement in Japanese and another song; was this a language lesson,
and why? ``Sound of Music`` relates to DPRK how? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Oct 25 at 2200, token English from REE is best
here, S7-S5 but deeper fades to S3; 15520 JBA, 11940 no signal surely
off, 11670 JBA carrier. Amy first corrects a phone number for voice
mail she gave last week but only utters it once and could not copy;
not that I would ever use it. Email is english@rtve.es - less than 2
minutes of news mainly Sudan coup; 2202 feature interviewing a
non-Spanish flamenco guitarist who participated in the soundtrack for
the new James Bond film, and could not catch his name (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Oct 25 at 2210, fairly good VOT signal S9+10/20,
different OM voice than usual ending `Review of the Turkish Press`
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2109 monitoring. we were out
getting vaccine booster, so could not check Sun Oct 24 at 2000 on IRRS
via 918 kHz.

Confirmed Sun Oct 24 at 2230 on WRMIs: 5950 S9+15, 9955 S8 both into
Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 S9+10/15 into
Missouri SDR; much louder than 9455 into same yet S9+12. 9395, S7 into
Maryland.

Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0116, the 0100 on Global Community
Radio webcast, supposedly relayed by some LP FM stations.

Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0130 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, JBA
into MD & MO SDRs, offset -50 Hz = 6159.950, and with ACI de RHC 6165
requiring LSB tuning. But by 0322, surged to S9/+12 into MD, still
ACI. Next, not until Wednesday:

** U S A. 6160-, Oct 25 at 0621, WBCQ with rock music, presumably
extension of Area 51 feed, rather than TOMBS. And 4790 is S9+10 with
protracted dead air instead of TOMBS, vs CODAR swirshes. Simul on
WRMIs, TOMBS with long pauses between outbursts at first seeming dead
air, but apparently such on original recording (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 4840, UT Mon Oct 25 at 0623, WWCR-3 with Old Time Radio
comedy, sounded like some Jack Benny, and an Alice character, but 0629
closing as having been `Classic Radio Theatre` with Phil Harris &
Alice Faye show of April 22, 1950, from network GCN, which otherwise
flushes far-right crap. Own sked dated Oct 1 shows TOMBS is supposed
to be on now. C.R.T. does not appear at *any* time on any of the four
WWCR schedules. Something`s always wacky at WWCR. TOMBS is still
running on 3215, WWCR-1, whew! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search Oct 26 at 0132-0138

** CUBA. 11760, Oct 24 at 1419, RHC is S9 of humbuzz only; something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, Oct 24 at 1420, ME music S8-S9 with a fast
SAH; 1458 still with roughly equal clash, i.e. Denge Welat and TURKEY
jamming. D.W. is supposed to switch site from PRIDNESTROVYE to FRANCE
at 1500, but I detect no break or change as music continues until 1501
one of them starts to talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 341-MCW kHz, re my observation that NDB in Enid, EI, has
not been heard here in weeks, even from the airport parking lot,
Harold Frodge forwards this reply From Dave Tomasko:
``Heard by Joe Farley 9/26, Doug Springfield 7/24/ Was off for about 6
months between 11/20 to 5/21. Not sure where Glen[n] is checking?? Not
heard here often, but will give it a call out when it shows up. Last
time I caught this guy was 10/19.``

? where I`m checking? About 10 miles away from EI 341 in Enid.
When on it`s always very weak, probably less than rated 25 watts. Or
maybe it get out better via skywave than groundwave? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2109 monitoring: again no one has
replied to my request for European monitoring of our new broadcast via
WMRI Europe, via Channel 292, Germany, 9670, Sundays at 1230 UT. So I
crawl out of bed myself to check at 1233 Oct 24 via UTwente SDR, and
pleased to hear a VG signal S8-S9 with no CCI from the simultaneous
Vietnam clandestine from Taiwan; but some adjacent splash, yet nothing
on 9675 or 9665. Must be from the China radio wars on 9680 & 9660 CNR1
echoing. At 1235 the 9670 signal suddenly surges as if power up or
antennaed up? To S9+25. Readout as only 4 Hz off-frequency-minus and
modulation is also good and clear.

Note from next week will be one real UT hour later, Sundays at 1330,
possibly a different QRM situation. I wonder what else be on this test
transmission Sundays only, but the schedule here is extremely
uninformative, not even WOR:

** U S A. 5950, Saturday at 2200 UT, WRMI starts a 4- or 5-hour string
of worthwhile programming, certainly unlike weekdays, on System L, via
transmitter 8, aimed almost north, 355 degrees: `Encore`, classical
music, which is when I usually listen to it; 2300 `Wavescan` among
innumerable repeats but this one is pre-Sunday nominal turnovers; 2330
WORLD OF RADIO; UT Sun 0000 `Texas Radio Shortwave` with two different
hours each week including Europirate relays; 0200-0300 `Alt Universe
Top 40` maybe too, I`ve not listened to but if you`re into that, see
detailed setup on the Programming page. Since System L is displayed in
ET, expect all the above times to shift one UT hour later from
November 12-13; barring any further permanent changes. Unfortunately,
heavy competition now such as: 00-01 `Theater Organ Under The Arch` on
WTWW-2 5085, axually starting 5-10 minutes earlier; `The Mighty KBC`
at 00-02 on 5960; `Encore` encore at 01-02 on other WRMIs, 5850 & 7780
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (5085), Sat Oct 23 at 2355, WTWW-2 webcast already into
`TOUTA` for ~1 hour show, tribute to Bob Heil`s mentor and friend,
George Wright, partly narrated by GW himself; 0049 UT Sun Oct 24
already wrapping up, plugging webcast available at ``WTWW.org`` ---
NO, not unless they buy it from a squatter for $ 4988! It`s WTWW.us,
strangely a seldom-used domain, why? Over at 0052, into hardsell Tedad
