** AUSTRIA. 6155, Dec 23 at 0641, non-classical music from Ö1, now
S9+10/20, much better than usual. Until tonight I had been
disappointed by poor signals during our only chance to hear ORF, the
wake-up domestic service relay from 0600 to 0710/0720; even tho the
English news capsule at the end was long ago eliminated. 0644
AustroGerman announcement, novelty song; 0647 TC for 7:47 and finally
some Brahms. Moosbrunn 300 kW transmitters except for this are
exclusively to relay foreign stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 7220, Dec 23 at 1547 good S8-S9 song, in English? Most
likely CRI Japanese from Jinhua site this hour, ergo aimed sorta
thisaway; rather than also EiBi-listed hour of VOV in Vietnamese to
North Africa. No QRhaM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9700, Dec 23 at 0550, VP signals SAHing, presumably
Turkey and // 6000 RHC English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6060, Dec 23 at 0550, RHC still colliding with
Algeria via FRANCE. At 0646 S9+20 in the clear, mailbag in English,
but somewhat distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6100, Dec 23 at 0551, RHC VP here in wrong language
Spanish not English, // much better 5040; also ACI from 6105 Arabic =
Algeria via France at 0500-0700. Same at 0637 recheck, S9/+10.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, UT Thu Dec 23 at 0643, RHC mailbag in English, S9+30
but undermodulated; // 9700 S9+10 also u-m. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Fog this morning, Dec 23 at 1510 UT, so there ought to be
some tropo enhancement TV. Hepburn maps predict we`re on edge of Level
1, but up to level 4 blob south/eastward as of 1500. Most `open`
channels 8-36 show BAD signals into the STB, but only one decodes, RF
26 as KOTV Tulsa on 6-1; KQCW-SD on 6-2; and NewsOn6 on 6-3; soon
fading as does the visible fog (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 6145, Dec 23 at 0550, strong music not RHC, 0552 S9+10
Romanian, sure sounds like an adstring. RRI Galbeni scheduled
0500-0600 to W Europe & USward, but chopped off at 0557*. Must be a
domestic program relay, but not specifically delineated as such in
WRTH 2021 nor current EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2118)

** SPAIN. 12030, Dec 23 at 1549, REE IS at S9+30/40 despite Mideast
aiming, also weaker 11670 toward Africa, both programming from 1600
weekdays; nothing yet on Americas frequencies 9690 & 11940, which
don`t start until 1855 weekdays, if on air at all (Glenn Hauser, OK,

UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 6114, the RTTY INTRUDER, had been heard every
night but not Dec 22 around 0700 check. Ron Howard replied to my
previous inquiry:

``Hi Glenn - Dec 22, checking 6115 kHz between 0525 to 0610 UT. Japan
starting to slowly fade up; no trace at all of Congo; normally Japan
would be coming up about 0500, so tonight was rather poor; no RTTY or
any kind of QRM; Japan with mostly non-stop pop songs (Ricky Martin -
"Livin' La Vida Loca," etc.). Ron (California)``

6114, Dec 23 at 0546 the RTTY is back, vs JBA 6115 carrier presumed
JAPAN not CONGO; still at 0640 when Nikkei music has grown to S6, the
RTTY evitable by USB tuning, but that should not be necessary!

I search the UDXF iog on 6114 and only get possibly unrelated hits:

``LOG 4 to 6 MARS 2016 + RUSSIAN NAVY, SCHWEITZER ANDRE
07854 RCV : Russian Navy Sevastopol 1525z CIS-12/AT3004D/USB Encrypted

** ALGERIA [non]. 6060, Dec 22 at 0405, Arabic IDs from RTA and 0406
into Qur`an. Heavy CCI from RHCuba with humbuzz. TDA is scheduled
04-06, southward from FRANCE toward Algerian outback and Sahel in the
protracted absence of registered imaginary SW broadcasts from inside
Algeria. Something`s always wrong at RHC. And how is TDA supposed to
know Cuba is there if not in HFCC? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Dec 22 at 1500, LRA36 is on again this
Wednesday, S5-S6 music, 1502 Base Esperanza ID; off at 1541 check: via
Brasil SDR where I had to camp as two were already tuned for this.
Others report it went off at 1530 or 1532* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Dec 22 at 0408, RHC English is here tonight instead of
6165, S9+20 but undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC. See
also ALGERIA [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Dec 22 at 2000, RHC continues in Spanish, what
happened to English? Something`s always wrong at RHC. About today
being ``dia del educador`` since 1961, and hyping Cuba as ``territorio
libre --- de analfabetismo``, land free of illiteracy. Is this another
lie? Venezuela also makes that claim --- then why are those the two
least free countries in Latin America?

Then 2004 weather report from Dr. José Rubiera,
https://www.cibercuba.com/noticias/2019-01-23-u164415-e164415-s27061-jose-rubiera-celebro-su-cumpleanos-72
including snow in Labrador, -14 in Calgary, also bits of US, Mexico,
Central America and Caribbean predixions. He also appears in English
around :15 past those hours. En seguida: deportes (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** EGYPT. 9899.599, Dec 21 at 2208, R. Cairo, S9+30 into UTwente in
English but very distorted. Something`s always egregious in Egypt
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 15355, Dec 22 at 1950, S5-S7 in unknown language, seems
a sermon with hymn breaks; 1957 AWR theme briefly, 1959*. Aoki shows
Ibo via Talata at 1930-2000; 15355 resumes at 2030 in French via
Austria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Checking out Part 15 FMs in Enid to go with Xmas Sound
and Light shows, UT Dec 22 from 0017 past 0100, the two regular ones
each year: Singing Xmas Trees, at the NE corner of Oakwood and Oak in
an (ex?) oil field lot: 89.5 MHz, seems only three tunes looping:
Chipmunx, Jingle Bells and I Wanna Hippopotamus for Xmas. Quite short
range; we parked a little too far for full quieting, and it was hard
to make out the ``worm`` along the fence.

In the Pheasant Run barrio, address hard to make out but maybe 5701 on
that street, the usual house and trees with a longer stereo loop
including Mannheim Steamroller and quiet carols alternating, on 94.9
MHz with greater range of a couple blox.

We did not find the third one in another neighborhood, but maybe this
one on 95.1 which made the front page of the Dec 22 Eagle:

``Local light show brightens the holidays
Kat Jeanne | Enid News & Eagle 21 hrs ago lightshowhouse

The Sudlow Family Light Show is on display at 2442 Edgewood Drive in
Enid. (Photo provided)

An Enid family is putting on its fifth annual light show outside of
their home with thousands of programmed lights and music.

The light show is at 2442 Edgewood Drive and runs 5:30-10 p.m. Sunday
through Thursday and 5:30-11 p.m. Friday and Saturday. {CST = UT -6}

“On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, it is pretty packed outside of
our house,” Ryan Sudlow said. “People will just line their cars up and
down the street and stay and watch the program. The whole point of
this is to make sure we have done our part to make people’s
Christmases a little bit brighter.”...

I assume similar things are running all over, but I never see any
other reports of such ``local DX`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 21 at 2300, VOT is S9+45, English VG into
UTwente. Something`s not erroneous in Emirler today (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, December 22 at
0409, earlier than usual for me so a somewhat different selexion, and
tuning downwards: 1584-2, 1566, 1458, 1215, 1161, 1152, 1125-2, 1107-,

at least two carriers beating. 846 presumed TP Kiritimati, almost
sundown there already. 1566 suspected TWR Benin. 1584 has low-power
Euro/ME only, perhaps most likely 2 x 5 kW SER in Spain and/or another
SER in Ceuta (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Dec 21 at 0735, indecisive RHC S9+20 with music
presumably English hour, instead of 9700, and no other RHCs active

** U S A. Re WORLD OF RADIO monitoring, which I confirmed starting UT
Mon Dec 20 at 0359.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, John Carver replies:

``Glenn, For what it's worth I tried to listen to WOR on Area 51.
About eight or nine minutes into the broadcast it just disappeared.
Never did come back. In the previous four weeks I heard another
partial show once and nothing the other times. The last four weeks or
so I'm lucky if I get to hear an hour or two of Area 51 programming
before it disappears. No axe to grind or anything. John``

I asked him, ``John, Tnx, reminds me that just because a WOR starts
doesn`t mean it will air to the conclusion. I need to recheck toward
the end. This time do you think it faded out or transmitter went off
the air completely? Glenn``

``As far as I could tell, Glenn, I believe the transmitter was on the
entire time. I thought the feed had dropped and was waiting for it to
come back. That happens a lot. It got down to only three or four
minutes left and I turned it off. Probably should have left it on to
see if the next program started on time. The S meter stayed up while I
was waiting for the program to pick up again. Thanks man. John``

** U S A. 9455, Dec 21 at 0727, as Jeff had predicted, this WRMI-5 is
back on air; first noted missing Dec 2 and ever since. But it`s wacko
paranoid preaching by BBB on YWS or T2P, NOT what`s on the System F
9455 schedule, Family Radio in Spanish! S9+10; and the other 31ms are
also propagating this nightmiddle, 9955 also S9+10 but louder with
TOMBS, and 9395, S9+20 with Xmasmx on guitar. System E sked calls for
TOMBS on 9395, not 9955 where System B is supposedly world music on
internet only. But the transmitter grid at 07-08 shows 9395 with SMTV
cult, 9955 with TOMBS. Too bad the WRMI skeds cannot be accurately
coördinated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Tue Dec 21 at 1547, beepery from `SW Radiogram`: this
new without notice WRMI time unknown to Kim: https://swradiogram.net/
Altho I mentioned it back on Dec 10 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9385, Dec 21 at 0730, S2-S3 of English talk, sounds like M.
Angelica, so WEWN is active. So poor, but modulation seems OK.

15610, Dec 21 at 1913, S3-S4 of English RCC stuff into PEI SDR, also
so poor, but mod seems OK on WEWN afternoon. SAM shows carrier offset
minus 78v Hz, quite a bit = 15609.922v. Kiwis are sometimes
mis-calibrated, so I check another, E Falmouth MA, Cape Cod: MUCH
better here and offset as only +5 Hz. And on this S9+15 signal I can
hear that WEWN squeal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6114 approx., Dec 21 at 0732, still RTTY INTRUDING, QRM

** CUBA. 9700, Dec 20 at 0750, S5-S6 in Spanish not English, so it`s
RHC, and no other frequencies by now on 5 or 6 MHz. Could not hear it
at 0400 on 9700 or 6165 when WOR was on 6160-. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Dec 20 at 1617, S9+20 of dead air in Spanish from RHC;
while the only other midday frequency, 15140 is S6-S8 and
undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** GERMANY. 9670, Dec 20 at 0751, TOMBS at S6-S9, i.e. via Channel
292, one of my better receptions of Rohrbach, unfortunately with
repulsive but lucrative programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1000, Dec 20 at 1939 UT on caradio, KTOK OKC just barely
modulated in some network talkshow -- so it`s their fault, not one of
my receivers. 2001 recheck during local news, normal modulation; 2007
Hannity show back to undermodulation. So it`s sporadic and no one is
paying attention in the control (?) room. It`s hard to think of any
show more deserving of undermodulation (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1640 kHz, Dec 21 at 0154 UT check, KZLS Enid is talking
but KQOB 96.9 is musicking, certainly not //. New NRC DX News says
they are, but the original story from

https://radioinsight.com/headlines/215834/alice-to-give-way-to-conservative-talk-in-oklahoma-city-as-long-running-lma-comes-to-end/
says not until January 1:

``Alice To Give Way To Conservative Talk In Oklahoma City As
Long-Running LMA Comes To End --- by Lance Venta December 3, 2021

96.9 The Eagle Alice 96.9 KQOB Enid Oklahoma City 1640 KZLS

After being leased to Cumulus Media and predecessor Citadel for the
past nineteen years, Champlin Broadcasting will resume programming
96.9 KQOB Enid/Oklahoma City on January 1, 2022.

That will mean the end of Variety Hits “Alice 96.9” as Champlin will
flip KQOB to a simulcast of Conservative Talk “1640 The Eagle” KZLS
Enid. Champlin also owns Classic Country “99.7 Hank-FM” KNAH Mustang
in the Oklahoma City market.

KQOB held a 2.1 share in the October 2021 Nielsen Audio ratings. 1640
KZLS held a 0.2 share. The 100 kW 96.9 signal will help the station
better compete against iHeartMedia’s 1000 KTOK and Tyler Media’s 1520
KOKC/95.3 K237GE. Lance Venta``

I`ve long suspected KZLS too be operated out of OKC, not Enid. 96.9 is
that station with a tall tower ~halfway between Enid and OKC west of
Crescent, inheriting the original Enid allocation for KCRC-FM, later
KNID, obviously trying to penetrate the huger OKC market. Likewise
KZLS is partway to OKC from Enid, site E of Hennessey and unusually
for an X-bander, direxional NNW/SSE, which makes it a tougher catch
for TA and TP DXers. KQOB call was originally to suggest ``Bob``
