** BRAZIL. 5940.030, Feb 23 at 0444, JBA carrier, presumed current
variation of R. Voz Missionária (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 5910, UT Thu Feb 23 at 0445, Western familiar
classical piano and orchestral music, break for announcement in
Cantonese; until 0455 sign-off announcement. CGTN Radio via CUBA,
S9+40/50. Hardly expected but another candidate for Alan Roe`s Music
on Shortwave (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Feb 23 at 0434, no signal from R. Progreso. Is it ever
on any more? I don`t often check during its limited nominal span,
0130-0500.

5040, RHC evenings also absent most or all of the time including now.

6165, Feb 23 at 0638, weak S8/S9 algo talk, NOT RHC as not // 6000
English. Lots of other 6165 usage but in EiBi & Aoki nothing now, the
closest being NHK Arabic via France until 0620. What could this be?

``READ TODAY THE CUBA OF TOMORROW
February 22, 2023 BASEBALL
The best thing a baseball player can do to help the sport in Cuba is
emigrate
In Cuba, athletes cannot prosper or progress in their athletic
disciplines.
YUSIMÍ RODRÍGUEZ LÓPEZ | Madrid
Luis Robert, one of the Major League Baseball players on the Cuban
team. (MLB)

A player who wishes to bolster the results of Cuban baseball at
international tournaments should emigrate. Leaving, and as young as
possible, should be considered by the regime as the most patriotic
thing an athlete can do for what is still Cuba's national sport.

Cuba cannot meet its athletes' economic aspirations, let alone their
aspirations for freedom, or those or of any of its citizens, nor can
it provide them with the chance to improve in their respective
disciplines.

The level of baseball in Cuba has hit rock bottom. What happened at
the Gran Caracas Caribbean Series 2023 is just the latest evidence of
this. It was not enough to create a selective tournament to bring
together the best players from the National Series....``

** CUBA [and non]. 5800, Feb 23 at 0455, weak pulse jamming against
nothing: because WRMI briefly? admittedly put R. República here before
0400, thus ruining another frequency forever. Current websked is
contradictory: System B mostly feeding 9955 is shown on 5800 this
0400-0500 hour only with `Freedom Synergy Radio` daily; while System H
also shows 5800 at 04-05 with Prague in English, Spanish - all of this
missing!

Now on the WRMI program info page you will find *no* mention of
F.S.R.; nor R. República even on the System sked pages. 17 months ago
I said, ``Freedom Synergy Radio, the dispensable Falungong anti-PRC show``.

9490.07, Feb 23 at 0456, weak carrier here as if the Issoudun, FRANCE
transmitter of RMI`s Radio República still be on, typically
off-frequency. Persistent jamming is also often audible here some
hours later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Feb 23 at 0747, S9+20 of dead air, no doubt RHC not
turned off long after-hours. Ivo Ivanov says it was in English until
0700. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Think of how many
undernourished Cubans could have had hearty meals for the cost of all
that wasted electrical fluid; not to mention all the jammers against
nothing or something (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Feb 23 at 0503, JBA carrier already
from R. Kiribati. Not usually do I check this early but it is well
after Xmas I sunset. Gary Pence, KM5X had it on the Oahu SDR by 0423.
Only other 9/kHz split for me at 0503 is the slow beat between two
Spaniards on 855. Recheck at 0731, still 846, only (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 344 MCW kHz, Feb 23 at 0736 UT, JBA mixture of ND beacons JA
and JL, at slightly different pitches; no problem separating by USB
tuning 342 from 341 local EI, and its mixer, OIN, OberlIN KS. JA is

** U S A. 720, Feb 23 at 0058-0116 UT, I`m on the DX398 positioned to
null WGN as much as possible, for any sign of KDWN Las Vegas, the one
in NV, during the final week of its life: no show, just some other
weak signals, mostly musical; most likely KSAH in TX if not México or
Nicaragua. Official Feb sunset for KDWN is 0115 UT when it should
switch from 25 kW ND day, to 7.5 kW direxional night protecting WGN.
The current terminator/grayline at 0100 is circa the AZ/NM border, so
skywave propagation eastward ought to be starting soon if not already.
Reverse at 1430 UT sunrise not explored yet, unless I happen to awaken
by then.

This is in preparation for the DX special, UT Wed March 1 at 0759-0809
UT when KDWN CE has agreed to run 25 kW test at night one last time,
but unknown whether will be ND. In order to help other easterners DX
that, I suggested to the CPC that WGN could be asked to turn itself
off for that brief period --- that was met with derision and insults
on the IRCA iog, tho a few brave DXers backed my out-of-the-box
idea.

I myself do not `need` to DX KDWN, as I have logged it before such as
in *2015y*, when it was suspected of not following the rules:

``720, Sept 20 at 1213 UT, ``Live in Las Vegas`` talk show from
``K-Dawn``, 257-5396 = KDWN, also asking for tweets, on subject Syria
could become a proxy war between USA and Russia. Really, live call-in
at 5 am Sunday --- I guess so in a city that never sleeps. Per
gaisma.com, today`s real dawn in LV doesn`t start until 1301 UT, and
sunrise at 1327. Enid`s sunrise is 1218 UT.

Better signal here than on 840 KXNT which I got first prompting me to
try 720. Once again, not in keeping with KDWN night pattern of a
cardioid null toward WGN, rather than ND day pattern; or do I enjoy a
propagational pipeline from LV NV? See also 1140 UNID (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``

Aside from the `pure DX` loss of a chance to hear NV in the East, I
say good riddance, as their program sked shows far-right-liar Sean
Hannity in prime time and another Faux host, Brian Kilmeade. The other
names I do not recognize, maybe locals and I bet not one of them the
least bit `liberal`.

However, Stephen Luce comments as of Feb 23: ``Although KDWN and KXST
are going silent, the licenses have not yet been surrendered. Still a
small possibility one or both could be resurrected under new
ownership. Whether it makes any business sense to do so is up for
debate. Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF

`Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`, something about an anti-oxidant
supplement involving the liver; 2340 bit of theme music but continues

** U S A. 1130, Feb 22 at 2139 UT, dead air at S7 from KLEY Wellington
KS, still so at 2208; and at 2255 when an understation has become
audible, no doubt KWKH. This shows you how seriously Rocking M Media
takes its broadcasting business. Long spans of dead air or off-air
have happened several times before. I wonder if their 100.3 translator
still modulate; doesn`t reach here. BTW, radio-locator.com shows there
is another KLEY on FM 95.7 in Jourdanton TX, presumably unrelated; as
FCC abandoned the idea of unique callsigns years ago if both parties
agreed to share. KLEY in KS has a sibling station on 1550 in nearby
Winfield, KKLE where I am not hearing it; had been reactivated at
least briefly some months ago // 1130 instead of two different

** GERMANY [non]. 15215, Feb 21, 2023, *1559.5 cut on with Radio
Öömrang opening annual broadcast via FRANCE. S7/9+5 into Maryland SDR.
First in German, then English as 500 kW at 5-6 pm local time, for
expats in NYC, where more Frisians now live than on the original
island. 1602 German; as to be expected mostly in German supposedly
with some Frisian mixed in, and occasional English announcements such
as 1619, with contact info, produxion and funding credits. I reminded
the WOR group about this at 1558, and reports from all over N America
ensued. At 1638 I check it direct to OK: S9/+10 with some deep
fades.

Of course, the non-fluent in German or Frisian can`t get much out of
it, and to make matters worse, totally oblivious to this annual event,
Pres. Biden made his big speech in Warsaw around 1640, drawing us
away.

At 1656 repeat English about credits and contacts, into German but
chopped off air at 1658* before can finish. Hansjoerg Biener in
Germany provided the WOR iog with this background:

``Öömrang Special Broadcast: What did you listen to?

Since 2006, Amrum native Arjan Koelzow has sponsored an annual
shortwave broadcast aimed at the global community of Amrum exiles,
particularly those in New York. (The most recent wave of emigration
was after World War II.) The broadcasts started via Juelich but were
transferred to Wertachtal in 2009 and later to Issoudun (France) as in
this year:
Tuesday, February 21, 2023, 1600-1700 h UTC: 15215 kHz (Issoudun 500
kW, 300°)

The broadcast coincides with a local festival, the Biikebrennen. At
https://www.ndr.de/ratgeber/reise/nordseekueste_sh/Biikebrennen-2023-Wo-die-Feuer-an-der-Nordsee-lodern,biikebrennen4.html
you will find the following information about the custom:

"The Biikebrennen is seen as the oldest remaining North Frisian
custom. It was originally a pagan ritual, and Christian missionaries
tried to end the custom around the 10th century. However, the
Biikebrennen continued as a cheerful carnival celebration. Therefore,
it had to take place before the start of Lent. [So, it is celebrated
on St. Peter’s Day now.] At first there were no large piles of wood
burning [as in other German midwinter or midsummer customs], but
individual fires on long poles. A straw doll, the pider, often went up
in flames too. This particular custom has survived in some places to
this day. Later the Biiken burned to drive away the winter. [...]

Since the 19th century, the Biike fires have also been a symbol of the
North Frisians' sense of togetherness and sense of tradition. Children
use the festivals to play pranks on adults. In some places, they even
have no school the next day, St. Peter's Day in honor of the
fishermen's patron saint. In 2014, UNESCO registered Biikebrennen in
the national register of cultural heritage.”

At the beginning of the 2023 programme, it was announced that it would
run parallel to Biikebrennen; but the NDR information gave the Amrum
time for Biikebrennen as 1800 h local time (1700 h UTC). This year the
programme was mostly in German with some Frisian interspersed. The
content of the word oriented programme included old stories from Amrum
(e.g. the finding and hiding of a 200-liter barrel of rum in early
World War II. Later in the war, the authorities hit back at the local
population: If you can recover and hide items washed ashore, you can
also recover dead bodies of seamen and airmen.), but also interviews
with pupils and teachers of the Öömrang-Skuul. Particularly
interesting was the tale of a cultural clash of its own kind when a
Amrum school class visited another school class on the mainland. In
all seriousness, someone asked whether electricity and television were
already available on Amrum.

** TURKEY [and non]. 5910, continued from last report, of TRT EQ
coverage in Turkish on the IRDR frequency placeheld by SMG Vatican
site, in clear before 0100 but what about the CCI as registered
afterwards, UT Feb 21:

*0058 via Maryland SDR, classical musiQRM cuts on from RRI, S9+10 atop
TRT, shows 0 Hz offset; but via UTwente it`s +004 Hz making heavy SAH,
RRI also atop. 0100 RRI opening Romanian for NAm. But how will they
compare in the EQ area? Closest KiwiSDR is Cyprus, so I get on that by
0120: S9+25 TRT atop with yelling and other noises outside any studio.
By 0200 the CCI is very heavy. 0215 at Maryland SDR, RRI is atop the
CCI as to be expected. At 0301 now Romania is off but CRI English via
Cuba is on: At Cyprus weak S6/S7 algo, TRT off earlier than 0400? No,
at UTwente, TRT still heard at .004, S9+25 with sirens; at Maryland,
only CRI is heard at 0301. By 0400 no 5910 signal into Cyprus (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960, Tuesday Feb 21 at 2258, BBC WS English via OMAN
until 2259* leaving nothing well past 2300. Neither VOT nor XJPBS
comes on. Recheck 2312, now Chinese from EAST TURKISTAN, std

listed, 25 watt GW in GreenWood MS - and only one other anywhere, 1E
in Black Tickle! NL, 25 watts. I`d love to hear that one (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
