** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Wed Sept 29 at 1454, LRA36 is on this
Wednesday, S4-S7 into Brasil SDR; usual mix of music, frequent canned
IDs, brief talx seemingly about some Argentine event on anniversary,
rather than Antarctica. 1504 ID, about 24 of September, music; 1511
``Nacional, La Radio Pública`` ID. 1526 Antarctica song; 1544 contact
info, fragment of song, ``hielo, blanco y más blanco``; 1548 march
song; 1554 brief QRM de 15475.00-USB 2-way INTRUDERS in Spanish; 1613
ID, 1614 hielo song; 1636 anniversary of algo, past 1650, cut off at
1709*. I let it run and hear some 15475 2-way again at 1718 when I can
tell the reduced open carrier is still running from LRA36 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 680, Sept 29 at 0630 UT as I am bandscanning, immediately
hear ``680 CJOB`` IDs, plug Alexa, weather. For the moment atop the
frequency despite my antenna E-W, and despite all its 50 kW at night
(and most of it at day) supposed to head NNE from Winnipeg; sure
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO [non]. Ingeniero Glenn, Sé que no has pedido verificación de
nuestra última emisión. Sin embargo aquí te la envío pues sé que
estuviste escuchándonos; espero de verdad que lo hayas disfrutado.

Te comento, esta idea surgió como una idea personal para honrar al
Perú en su bicentenario de independencia, (yo soy un historiador
especializado en este país andino, enamorado de su cultura e incluso
estuve casado con una de sus mujeres), luego entre Bill Tillford y yo
pensamos hacer algo similar para mi México bello, sólo para
divertirnos.

Pero dado el éxito que hemos tenido seguiremos produciendo programas;
ya tenemos el siguiente en la lista (Aunque WRMI todavía no nos da
fecha de emisión). Aunque no puedo revelarte qué país sigue que el
siguiente país en la lista tiene mucha variedad musical.

También Bill Tillford ha pensado en crear un especial de música
latinoamericana para Año nuevo donde seguro incluiremos a Carlos
Gardel y José Alfredo Jiménez; ya te informaré cuando tenga los
detalles pertinentes. Te abraza tu Oyente de hace mchos años, Luís
Alejandro Vallebueno. Programas "Canto de las Americas"``

Here`s the eQSL:
https://www.w4uvh.net/GlennMX.pdf

or #131 via:
http://www.worldofradio.com/QSL.html

Uncle Bill responds:

``Thanks for the kind words about México le canta a las Américas. In
the short run, we are discussing a possible Nochevieja Panamericana (a
Pan American NYE special) that would incorporate music from several
different LATAM countries. Doubtful that we'll do another specific
country special this year, but in 2022 who can say? "Uncle Bill"

WRMI 5850; anyone hear it?

Wed Sept 29 at 2100 the BST-1 caradio is the only SW I have access to.
Both WRMI 7780 and WBCQ 7490 are in its memory; no direct frequency
input; but both are so weak that I fear they will unable to stop the
scan. I stop at a quiet spot away from power lines, turn off the car,
and finally after multiple memory scans, each one does, confirming
WOR: WBCQ at 2115, WRMI at 2121, both VP. Next:

** CANADA. 15034-USB, Sept 28 at 1738, Trenton Military is on again
but VP S4, Shannon aviation weather (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 13645, Sept 28 at 1743 hilife music, S5-S8. It`s the
CRI Swahili service via MALI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Sept 28 at 1507, tune-in via UTwente to
another weekly Tuesday Kashmir Civitas via IRRS via ROMANIA: S9/+15 in
presumed Urdu, but 1511 abruptly shift to jive music in English!, more
rock, and from 1519 discussion about the Tiananmen Square massacre in
Beijing, interview with a Chinese-American author, Terence Cheng, of a
novel about it, notably the brave anti-tank protester; with music
background until chopped off at 1529* without any RRI IS this time.
Was K.C. really only 11 minutes long this week? Or playback failed and
default to fill material? IRRS webcast is continuous, much of it with
no specific programming but unknown stuff pulled from the web, often
fragmented (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 15720, Sept 29 at 0040, RNZ confirmed on reactivated
frequency but not its true span, VP to the ear but peaking S8-S9 to my
generous meter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 28 at 2155, REE non-English is still somewhat
distorted, but loud & clear on // 17855 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SWEDEN [non]. 15260, Sept 28 at 1737, S7-S9, YL talk in language
unseems Arabish but listed as Arabic from Radio Sama = IBRA Radio, via
Woofferton UK this hour daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 28 at 2152, VOT IS & English ID loop, so looks
good for today unlike absence yesterday, S9/+25 direct and no RTTY
audible in AM --- but detectable in USB, not LSB. Oh2, 2157.6* dumps
off the air; but back on by 2159. Did it remain the whole hour? About
halfway in, it had become JBA on the portable with clipon (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5896.5-USB, Sept 29 at 0045, some weak unreadable 2-way
phone, then mostly beepery until at least 0100. Fortunately there are
no broadcasters nearby but surely will be later. Wonder if NTIA
coördinate this `OOB` area for US broadcasters giving priority to
government/military comms. Last logged May 13, 2020 as MARS net:
http://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2020_0507_0514.txt

** U S A. 17530, Sept 28 at 1740, VOA discussing need to vaccinate
animals, against rabies, S9/+20 --- a reminder that this 1700-1830
sesquihour is the only time we can hear VOA well in English from
Grimesland - unless too close in the skip zone.

17530 is extensively used for other VOA languages: French, Somali,
Kinyarwanda, Swahili; and sites: Botswana, Vatican violating
Separation of Church and State, São Tomé e Príncipe, Ascension. Can
you mix and match them without uplooking? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

with gospel huxter in English at next check 0109 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 28 from 0555:

** CANADA. 6754-USB, Sept 28 at 0032, Trenton Military is AWOL again,
nor was it heard in earlier Sept 27 daytime chex on 15034-USB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11880, Sept 28 at 0039, RHC is still on here, S9+20
with its own version of French, which is supposed to be on 5040 but
that`s now in Spanish. 11880 is supposed to quit at 2400 after an hour
of English to ``Africa``, BTW often AWOL. This time the sloppyrator is
really asleep at the dial. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

Oh oh, if this keep on past 0100, there will be a big collision with
Greenville relay of KBS World Radio in Spanish, which has been on
11880 all A-season. At 0059 RHC suddenly switches to English as ``Ed
Newman`` is introducing the next hour.

11880, KBS relay comes on about a minute late at 0101, and now they
are mixing about equally with RHC as received direct. I keep checking
every few minutes and RHC is not about to get off! At 0113 during
English from RHC and music from KBS, they add up to S9+20/30; still
0126+.

At 0144 I try Bonaire SDR where it also seems that the two are within
1 Hz of zero-beat, fine going! English is on regular 6000 and 6165 and
harmonic 12000; but 5040 is in S9+10/30 of dead air. At 0150 KBS is
dominating to Bonaire with RHC weakening; but the KB0FX SDR in
Missouri has RHC dominant. KBS relay goes to ``Babcock`` music at
0200-0201* so it looks like Grimesland`s timer is a minute slow.

RHC English keeps on and on 11880 after KBS is finished: 0219 is S5-S7
into MO; still 0258, 0329 tho weakening, 0400 no longer audible and
probably finally off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Sept 28 at 0040, aside all the excitement on 11880,
RHC Spanish is on here, JBM, suptorted, wiggle that patchcord! but
S9+20 signal, still plenty to audiblize the parasitic spurcarriers in
the clear on 11840, and QRMing the jamming against nothing on 11860,
which is even stronger on 11930. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EUROPE. 12264.90V-AM, wavering between 12264.89 and .935 per
UTwente SDR readout in Synch mode, Sept 27 at 1741, JBA signal S7 with
talk, music; but nothing into Maryland remote:

``Dick Spacewalker`` had publicized yesterday [sic]: ``Hi, after 2,5
months of silance Spaceshuttle will have transmission day on Monday
27th of September. Day includes short tests of propagation as well
combined 19th Birthday of us. Only frequency in use will be 12265
kHz... So we have very low power in use. But surprises might happen.
Wishing you luck with listenening``

He had been on earlier around 0800; after my tip several other WOR iog
members were hearing this intermittently past 2000 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO [non]. 5800, UT Tue Sept 28 at 0300, WRMI with special
`México le canta a las Américas`, but also talking interviews, all in
Spanish, greeting from Jeff Blanco at midpoint. VG into Bonaire SDR,
not so good direct. Too much else going on this hour, e.g.
`Klezocalypse Now` on KSFR, so I record for later listening with less
divided attention. First Perú, now this: I hope we`ll be hearing more
LAm countries celebrated. Per WRMI skedgrid, this pre-empts Freedom
Synergy Radio, the dispensable Falungong anti-PRC show most nights
during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. RNZP is not adhering to its own revised transmission
schedule. Sept 27 at 2015 check, nothing on reactivated? 15720, or
13840. 15720 supposedly runs from 2159 to 0258, preceded and followed
by 13840. Next check at 0235 Sept 28: it`s S5-S7 on 13840 into
Missouri SDR, NOT on 15720 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 27 at 2200, REE token English this Monday is
*still* distorted on this S6-S9 frequency; is anyone paying attention?
Something`s always nonsensical at Nobleejas. Fortunately, // 17855 to
NAm is still holding up well, S9/+20 and with good modulation. 15520
good at S3-S7; 11670 S3-S7 but with ute ACI, all direct to OK. News
first with Amy Egan: Canary volcano; illegal drunken parties on the
beaches of Barcelona; international tourism day; a copy of the Mona
Lisa at the Prado. 2211 feature admittedly from the archive: about a
UK blues/rock guitarist at Café Comercial in Madrid. He`s semi-Spanish
and has lived there for a dekayear. Name mentioned once sounded like
B. B. King, but I don`t think that`s right; no podcast yet to check,
the latest being 21/9 since Sept resumption after break from July with
no Augusts at:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 27 at 2200 and later, no signal from VOT English
to N America, SOB. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Sept 27 at 2019, WBCQ is VP with YL in German? WLCR
back on air, tho missing this morning (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9v), Mon Sept 27 from 2300, WBCQ webcast, attempting
to listen to the semi-repeat of `UBMP`, but it`s still too distorted,
overmodulated; and subject this week, Mexican rock is unappealing.
Ehhh, listen next week, as UB would say. I do notice at 2330 another
of those national spot commercials which precede `Camp Constitution
Radio`, this time for Tim Horton`s Coffee app. What a catch (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
