![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** CUBA [and non]. 820, Sept 3 at 0617, whooper occasionally audible vs WBAP, and not on 870 vs WWL at the moment (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, Sept 3 at 0240, RHC English frequency is off, nor on 5990 either; is on 6165. Could 6000 transmitter be on another wrong frequency as happens? None found: 11670 and 11850 in Spanish, 11760 off; 6060 also in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC. 6000 English is running by next check at 0634, S9+30; also 6060 JBM English under humbuzz, 6100 good S9+10 and 6165 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 4765, Sept 3 at 0342, R. Progreso is OFF, despite sked as 0030-0400. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. BTW, proper Spanish words lack double-S; possible in Italian names, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, Sept 3 at 1451, RHC back on today after excursion to 15370 yesterday, but it`s suptorted S9/+10. 15230 is always weaker, S5-S9 but sufficient modulation. 11760 is S9/+10 but undermodulated at 1455. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9475, Sept 3 at 1456, hymn-like music, M&W talk in presumed Korean, from National Unity clandestine via TAIWAN, S7-S9 and off by 1500 as scheduled; lacking WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6969-USB, UT Fri Sept 3 at 0242, pirate mostly talk with 2 or 3 guys chatting, rapidly, poorly enunciated and a hard time figuring out what they are talking about, but F-bombs and S-bombs every few seconds! Yet one manages a big word, ``neuro-linguistic``. Maybe a call-in over phones? Bits of wild ``music`` here and there such as 0249.5. S9+20/30. I wonder if the frequency choice convey a secret implication? 0303 discussing computers. 0308 muse about ``trying to get on all SW frequencies``; eQSL from L0DE@L0DE.com sounds like, and that 0 = zero, mentions HF Underground. 0311 disjointed music to 0314.7* Many reports here as: ``L0de Radio Hour 6969 USB 0113 UTC 3 September 2021`` https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85862.0.html L0DE.com is a real Not Secure website, leading to numerous audios of previous broadcasts of Nov/Dec 2018 tho I`d never heard it nor heard of it before. Maybe this replayed one of them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11840, Fri Sept 3 at 1454, I run across the intonations of Josiah, anti-Christ pirate Station YHWH, but unreadable as S7-S9 equals the high local line noise level I still suffer from. Seems he is often on 11840 in the mornings. Previously with good signal into Alberta remote, not checked today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PERU. 4810, Sept 3 at 0628, JBA music audible on LSB only vs STANAG on plus side, still confronting CODAR, presumed R. Logos, Chazuta (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PHILIPPINES. 9410, Sept 3 at 1501 tune-in to dead air, and off in a few seconds. Scheduled 1400-1500 is VOA Korean via Tinang; before and after for many hours on 9410, various BBC languages and sites (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAO TOME. UNID 4960, Sept 3 at 0340, S9/+10 of open carrier, VOA Sao Tome? Not scheduled in HFCC & EiBi until 0400-0500 English daily, 0500-0530 Hausa daily, 0530-0600 French M-F, 0700-0730 Hausa daily; 2030-2100 Hausa daily, all 100 kW at 30 degrees. Aoki agrees except for 2030 on M-F only. 4960 carrier still at 0629. No other stations anywhen on 4960. Almost on Equator, sunrise varies only ~30 minutes during the year, currently 0529 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

AFAIK, WRMI has never put any exile programs on 4980 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 5040, Sept 3 at 0631, JBA carrier presumed R. Vanuatu after Cuba is off.

![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** BRAZIL. 4885, Sept 2 at 0645, quarter-hour pips like a timesignal, Rádio Bandeirantes IDs and promos, which is the network R. Clube do Pará relays a lot; now no sign of a second carrier from Acre vs this S9/+10, biggest Brazie on band. By 0900, Bryan Clark, NZ, was hearing them both competing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15370, Sept 2 at 1504, RHC S9+20 undermodulated with `Efemérides` segment, wrong frequency instead of vacant 15140; also nothing on 15230, but // 11760; while on 31m there remains S7-S9 of dead air on 9710 not yet turned off. Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 7245, Sept 2 at 0600+, no signal from RNZP which is supposed to start this frequency now; nor any on 11725, scheduled until 0559. But Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, was tracking it: ``Radio New Zealand Pacific on wrong frequencies at 0600 UT, September 2: till 0604 on 13840 instead of 11725 kHz; from 0604 on 11725 instead of 7245 kHz; from 0614 on 7245 RAN 050 kW / 035 deg to All Pacific English, as scheduled in A-21`` When I check again at 0649, 7245 has indeed come up. A Thursday so maybe disrupted by maintenance testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Sept 2 at 0606 UT, ``Talk Radio 11-70`` ID still from KFAQ Tulsa, not ``The Blitz 1170 AM`` stupid ballgame talk as previously publicized to start Aug 23. Brock Whaley, SC forwards an allaccess.com story that the flip is now scheduled to begin Tuesday Sept 7, but refers to new format ``all day``, nothing about overnight. Loss of one of countless `C2CAM` affiliates would hardly be missed, except perhaps by Tulsans who can`t imagine any out-of-town AM radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2102) ** PERU. 4810, Sept 2 at 0642 previous JBA carrier has improved to JBA music, so a broadcaster, vs CODAR and LSB tuning essential vs STANAG noise on 4812. Also 0659-0702+ but music continues, no ID. I still think it`s likely reactivated R. Logos, Chazuta, as does Bryan Clark, New Zealand, who replies Sept 2 to my yesterday`s report: ``Glenn, I have heard non-stop music on 4810 LSB several times over the past week. I recorded the frequency on 29 August from 0723 past 0900 UTC and the music sounds like contemporary Christian vocals. The frequency measured here is 4809.993. I am now replaying my recording for any other clues and will advise, but my guess would be Radio Logos. Earlier today (0859 UTC) I discovered a Latin American station on 4939.973 with good signals, co-channel with the Colombian religious station. Latter was clear on the Bonaire KiwiSDR with only the barest trace of the other station showing on the waterfall. Checking an Argentinean SDR I found the mystery station was at good level. I have yet to replay my recording but suspect that this is Peruvian Radio San Antonio, which MWOffsets io Group lists as on 4939.971. Best regards from Mangawhai, New Zealand - Bryan Clark`` 4810, Sept 3 at 0105, via Bonaire SDR a definite carrier, but just a bit of talk modulation even in LSB tuning, S4 unreadable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2102) ** U S A. 329-MCW kHz, Sept 2 at 0635 UT, ND beacon PMV, 25 watts from Plattsmouth NE. Noise level diminished a bit audiblizing it. 326-MCW kHz, Sept 2 at 0636 UT, NDB MA, 400 watts from Midland TX, also not heard for months. I was tuned to 324-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13565-CW, Sept 2 at 1507, HIFER beacon is JBA with ID K6FRC repeating, QRMing CODAR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, From the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.

![Hauser](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/wor.gif) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 1 at 1452, another week, another Wednesday, with no signal from LRA36 into Brasil SDR. Could the `season` be over? It was last heard Sunday August 8 concluding a 5-day-straight `marathon`, after which they made excuses due to weather. Will keep checking at least on Wed and Sat around this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5040, Sept 1 at 0129, S9 of dead air from RHC, where something is always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, Sept 1 at 0629, RHC English is still on here; normally turns off by 0600. The rest of The Cuban Five are also running late: 6060 undermodulated with somehum but not a lot of buzz; 6100 VG S9+20; 6165 undermod, all in English, and 5040 in music, Spanish service. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9790, Sept 1 at 0637, huge S9+20 open carrier. RFI is scheduled at 0400-0700, but I think this must be CRI relay transmitter still on air after 0300-0457. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6974.9-AM, Sept 1 at 0126, pirate music at S7-S9, much more than the usual JBA off-frequency carrier from presumed Nowhere Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN [and non]. 11670, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, the *only* SNR token English frequency to be heard at Maryland SDR and UTwente. VG except at UTw bothered by splash from S9+30 11660, CRI French until 2230 via Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of ChiCom imperialist genocide; 11940 obviously still off the air [but JBA carrier at 2058, presumably remnant of CRI Bulgarian via Kashgar until 2057], but no signals either on 17855 or 15520, which I at first assume must be inaudiblized by degraded propagation, Sept 1 at 2058, but WWV at 2100 says K=0, SF=84, no storms yet, but moderate to G2 level forecast. So 75% of REE are off the air? Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, VOT VG into UTwente SDR opening English with news and press review; 2213 COVID PSA; 2214 `Feeling Supreme` about folk remedies starting with gargling lemon juice for sore throat, and finishing with something about the ``plodge`` in the XIV century -- I think he`s trying to say ``plague``. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2222 music; 2225 plug the 41 languages available at trtvotbird.com ? No, that must be https://www.trtdinle.com/channel/trt-world where I listen for a few minutes to the conclusion of a discussion show `Newsmakers`, and then `Nexus` --- obviously a TV soundtrack without any video --- good accents in even American English unlike the SW station simultaneously in TurcoEnglish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring: Sept 1 unawake as usual Wed 1030 on WRMI 5850; did anyone hear it? Confirmed Wed Sept 1 at 2100 on WRMI 7780, and starting about 21 seconds later on WBCQ 7490-: both JBA S7 in storm noise here; at UTwente, 7780 also JBA S7 with storm noise tho no Blitz around Holland, none closer than east Spain, north Algeria, and west Black Sea. Into Maryland SDR, both S7 but not so noisy, WBCQ as always way low measured in SAM mode, minus 142v Hz = 7489.858. Next, and last: 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support; via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA Thanks this week to Dan in Cincinnati, who says, ``Dear Glenn, I am writing to thank you again for all of the great information that you gather and report weekly`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4790-, Sept 1 at 0626 check, WBCQ is off with no TOMBS, clearing frequency for CODAR swoorps. BTW, Aoki still doesn`t list WBCQ on 4790! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7490-, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, WBCQ with `AAAWWW` playback from last Friday night. I notice the waterfall at Maryland SDR is sort of spiral during `William Tell Overture` theme, I guess reflecting the modulation pattern of that piece (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, Sept 1 at 0125 check, WRNO New Orleans is still off. What will all their Hindi proto-Christian listener do after 0315? Probably until AC restored; no more reports until someone hear it again, on its token schedule of 0100-0400 UT only. It would have been less hazardous to transmit from Fort Worth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 1 at 0138-0148; tipped by 1 kHz het as I tune across 1000 KTOK OKC: 612, 657(2), 684, 729, 738, 747(2), 774(2), 801, 837(2), 855(2), 882, 909, 936(2), 999, 1044, 1053, 1062, 1089, 1098(2), *1107, 1125(2), 1134, 1152, 1215(2), 1296, 1305(2). At this early hour, all of Eurafrica is still in darkness. Probably mostly Spain and UK on frequencies with any significant power, altho *1107, momentarily strongest, and 1296 bring to mind Afghanistan, where Kabul sunrise was 0056 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 4810, Sept 1 at 0627, JBA carrier vs constant STANAG uteblob circa 4812. Possibly R. Logos, Chazuta, Perú, active? Tho Aoki shows it as the only 4810 station and at 0900-2400 only. WRTH agrees the only 4810 anywhere, anywhen is that 1 kW station, OAW9A. Nothing since 2019 or 2020 at http://www.ethnicradio.org which is missionary HQ in Orange, California. Not reported since late last year when there was also a lot of activity on disgraced FB: https://www.facebook.com/Radio-Logos-4810-Mhz-Chazuta-501777529885017 And only generic, undated info but with some still photos at: https://radiologoschazuta.com/es/ Of course, this 4810 could also be a ute (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 2325 UT September 1

** CUBA. 6060, Aug 31 at 0608, humbuzz atop undermodulated English.. Something`s always wrong at shameless RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 7157 & 7215, Aug 31 at 0609, wall-of-noise Cuban jamming which they keep running against nothing on these particular 40m ham frequencies and no others, why? Nor is there any conceivable broadcaster attracting jamming anytime on 7215. Unlike previously, however, there is no jamming against vacant OCB frequencies above 7300; but there is on 9565, where Radio Martí quits at 2400*. Something`s always wrong at the DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Tuesday Aug 1 at 1525, Kashmir Civitas in Urdu talk but some English words: ``red light area`` and 1527 again mentions ``red light`` twice. Wonder what that`s about? Also mentioned ``Jammu & Kashmir``. Chopped off at 1529* still talking, no postlude of IRRS songs in English this week. Programmers don`t seem to appreciate necessity for accurate timing. Last Tuesday I missed checking this weekly 1500 broadcast via ROMANIA after having heard it every week since it started. This week reception via UTwente is much worse than usual; instead of loud & clear solid, it`s S7-S8 and ``hollow`` sounding. K-index now only 1, but G1 minor storms predicted (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6880-USB, UT Tue Aug 31 at 0148, only pirate activity is here, S9/+10 with classical music, believe it or not! 0151 ID as Mix Radio International, more classical. I keep listening in astonishment, as most pirates avoid classical like the plague. But MRI after all is ``mixed`` and have broadcast various genres before. Let us say these are ``popular classics``, war horses of tuneful recognizability. At 0258 going from ``Deutschland ueber Alles`` to the VVV opening of Beethoven`s Fifth. At 0205 I switch from own rx to remote in Maryland which is getting it equally well at S9/+10; 0206 another ID but music unseems named. I suspect there be some repetition before it`s all over, but haven`t kept track of individual pieces. No announcements at all heard in final hour to sesquihour, abruptly off at end of final piece at 0340*. Many other reports here starting at 2214 August 30, all classical: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85786.0.html I am pleased to see positive comments from other listeners, perhaps encouraging more of this from MRI or others. Some comment on the wideband audio, but on the KiwiSDR I find plenty of highs, sorely lacking in bass response if not bass transmission; rather tinny; no equalizer? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 14322.5-USB, Aug 31 at 1907, JBA ``International Bible Study Net`` announcing this frequency, later CQs, apparently trouble rounding up students. Can`t copy the NCS call, never foneticized. I`ll bet only welcomed are those accepting as a given that it`s the Undisputed Holy Word of the Christian God; which version? No real challenging (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring; next: 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support; via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA Thanks this week to Dan in Cincinnati, who says, ``Dear Glenn, I am writing to thank you again for all of the great information that you gather and report weekly`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 15610, Aug 31 at 1903, no signal from WEWN English, scheduled to start at *1900; nor yesterday, I think, nor night frequency 9385. Now neighbor 15825 WWCR at similar megameter distance achieves S8-S9, and 15770 WRMI too. 12050, Aug 31 at 1957, at first hear non-Spanish, must be Ndarason in Kanuri via Woofferton at 19-21, then CCI WEWN Spanish making >1 Hz SAH; WEWN Spanish night frequency 5970 has been reliable. Some weeks ago, WEWN tried 12040 instead, but back to 12050 since KSDA is already on 12040 for one semihour at 2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 870, Aug 31 at 0119 UT, WWL New Orleans with storm coverage vs the Cuban whooper. I think WWL is running lowered power, as it`s incomparable e.g. to neighbors on 860 & 880. This makes sense since they must be relying on generator. 10 or even 5 kW should be enough to cover the disaster area; and who cares about skywave? Website is certainly current in more ways than one, hosted somewhere with electrical fluid. I can`t find anything about technical issues, nor even a list of all the FMs allegedly carrying WWL at least on HD2. But they do plug ``WWL HD2`` which you can hear online; who cares about OTA FM? As if it were separately programed, but totally unclear about that. During the emergency, likely a single stream on all possible outlets. Not to be confused with Audacity, sounds like ``odyssey``: https://www.audacy.com/wwl As for the QubaRM, IIRC, WWL was among many major US MW stations that the USG took over for VOA Spanish during the 1962 Missile Crisis; so maybe the Commies have not forgotten certain frequencies worth jamming, just in case! Meanwhile press about the NO/LA radio situation, via Artie Bigley: https://radioinsight.com/headlines/212313/wzrh-kvdu-tower-destroyed-by-hurricane-ida/ I also find these: http://www.insideradio.com/free/new-orleans-radio-went-wall-to-wall-sunday-as-hurricane-ida-made-landfall/article_f0735c20-0969-11ec-8a74-e753e1d99dcf.html http://www.insideradio.com/free/covering-ida-we-re-running-on-adrenalin-says-veteran-new-orleans-broadcaster/article_e10b5548-0a28-11ec-8348-d3785e2b972a.html and Terry L Krueger, Niceville FL panhandle has just reported in GMT: ``870 LOUISIANA WWL New Orleans 0826 8/29/21. Excellent live and local coverage with Hurricane Ida coverage, but sadly, terrible interference from co-channel Radio Reloj, Cuba with exceptionally terrible voltage wobbling noise and -- even more sinful -- WPWT, Colonial Heights, TN (C&W "96-3 The Possum"), a D1 that constantly runs 10,000 watts overnights. Recheck pre-sunrise on 8/30, WWL is much weaker. Still audible daytime though poor in local noise. The only other New Orleans-proper licensed station audible is 1280 kc/s WODT, which on 8/29 was blindly running Black Information Network feed, but on 8/30 at least was airing local coverage under the BIN branding. KLEB Golden Meadow 1600 kc/s (in the bullseye of Hurricane Irma) was noted pre-sunrise 8/29 but with the usual Blues/Cajun music. So far, I haven't traced their signal since but inconclusive`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2128 UT August 31
