** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, July 14 from tune-in 1516, another
Wednesday, so LRA36 is to be heard via Pardinho, Brasil KiwiSDR, S4-S6
during music. Of course since it`s SSB, the S-range varies more
depending on modulation level than on propagation. 1518 already
``cierre del programa`` mentioning ``lejano sur, Esperanza``, until
next miércoles but this to be repeated el sábado. Antártida themesong
until 1523 but does NOT go off, immediately starts another song, 1531

contact info including whatsapp; songs. 1547 canned ID, 1558 weather
again of -11C high. 1624 still going with songs. 1631 ID, also at

con más...`` when I tune out, as FM DX from Canada is calling me to
the caradio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. Large sporadic-E FM DX opening July 14 from 1702
until 1953 UT mostly from Saskatchewan and Alberta. It shall take a
day or two for me to have time to research and report it thoroly, but
this may be one of the most interesting:

95.3, July 14 at 1719 UT into caradio, horoscope, CCI with KOKC 1520
translator [not KOMA as I wrote before!], YL DJ, birthdays of
celebrities, eh? [sic], hum on her mike; 1720 ``Creek FM``, eldercare
PSA with COVID advice, still hum. WTFDA has no such slogan for any
Canadian, which this surely is, eh? also from PTA = probable target
area, and not Michigan. Web search leads to it:

I do not find that Res in my Rand McNally; must be very small? But
Balcarres is NE of Regina on the way to Melville and Yorkton. So this
is it as per WTFDA:

CHXL-FM 95.3 OKANESE INDIAN RESERVATION SK CAN COMMUNITY RADIO 50.0 kW
Horizontal-only 71.2 m HAAT H-only 50-56-34 103-23-53 --- yet I am
getting it on my vertical-only car antenna! It is said that sporadic E
fortunately tumbles the original polarization of signals. From
Balcarres: 1665 km = 1034 statute miles.

I wonder if these Creeks be any relation to the Muscogee/Creek of
Oklahoma? BTW, in OK you see a lot of Tribal license plates --- once
considered prestigious or at least funding tribes rather than the
state in general, but since McGirt shakeup in federal/tribal, vs state
jurisdixion of crimes against Indians, many of whom you would not
recognize as such without their plates, news reports say criminals are
now singling them out as targets less likely to lead to prompt
prosecution (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, July 14 at 0629, RHC English is under humbuzz here;
clear but undermodulated on 6100; off of 6165, 6000 and 5040.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15370, July 14 at 1433, RHC is S9+10 but undermodulated
`Sonido Cubano` music, wrong frequency instead of missing 15140, but
also on 15230. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13635 & 13765 approx., July 14 at 1436, JBA spurblobs out of

** MEXICO. 92.3, July 4 at 1847 UT, during large sporadic E FM DX
opening mostly from Saskatchewan and Alberta, some Spanish shows up
here: weak but growing against CCI from Phoenix, phone? 169-5810, and
ad in *pesos* so unAmerican; 1849 ``nueva radio La Bestia 92.3``; 1859
still Mexmx with stereo pilot, 1900 Spanish spoken; 1903 ``ya nos
conoce`` [indeed I do], non ID, live DJ, then ``92.3 FM, La Bestia``.
Besides Yuma & Vegas on 93.1, most DX continues from Canada, and no
more Mexicans as this is barely one per WTFDA DB:

about 21 seconds behind on WBCQ 7490 minus ~80v Hz at S9+10; but by

Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 3215, July 14 at 0633, WWCR-1 is OFF! instead of BSing,
while the other three, 4840, 5890 and 5935 are nominally on and
strong. Also no carrier on 15825 at 1434 check while 13845, 9980 and
7490 are VG. Next check at 2242: 6115 is also AWOL. Problems with #1

UNIDENTIFIED. 4975, July 14 at 0631, JBA carrier, for the third time,
vs storm noise and 4980 WRMI splash. I have my doubts it`s the
Europirate Radio Deltracks as reported over there, 350 watts from
Netherlands, but I need to check for it earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7348-CW, July 14 at 0626 weak string of numbers, those
5-character codes, finally K; and then a short msg including QRU.

** CUBA. 13761 & 13639 approx., July 13 at 1447, weak spurblobs with
F# tones, no readable modulation even in FM mode; plus/minus ~61 kHz
from 13700-AM which is only S7-S9 and undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 7435 & 7335, July 13 at 0643, R. Martí is again on
late, very strong but now jamming audible under; also 6030 weaker; due
to the unrest in Cuba.

Dan Robinson, a critic of his former employer, suggests that at long
last OCB has fulfilled its mission to stir up trouble inside Cuba;
Radio Free Asia still working on their targets:

``It was no secret that Radio Marti (before TV Marti) was specifically
designed to encourage anti-Castro government feelings in
Cuba. [...] So, what I am saying is that in a way, the purpose, going
back to the earliest days of Radio Marti, has been achieved --
riots/unrest in the street directed at the post-Fidel Castro
government. It's as simple as that...`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, July 13 another Tuesday so time for another
weekly Kashmir Civitas clandestine via apparent ROMANIA. Starts at
1500 with S9/+25 signal into UTwente SDR, in Urdu but English term
``foreign occupation``, strumming underneath, mentions Kashmiri. 1525
checked direct and no signal here. 1528 Salaam Aleikum, and azad,
azad. 1528 very abrupt IRRS-style cut to blues song by woman in
English, ``If you don`t want me, it`s up to you---`` and cut off air
at 1529* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

jamming audible altho it often runs overtime against nothing; and also
on weaker 6030. Because, of course, of the widespread and never-before
anti-Communist-government demonstrations. Seems to be live discussion
of this by host and various exiles if not dentro-Cubans. Assures Cuban
listeners they are getting worldwide press attention; leaders blame it
on the US, of course. Keeps going past 0700+ with no ID break (Glenn

they would play the outbreak of anti-Communist demonstrations around
the Greatest Antille; or just ignore them? No, that`s the lead story,
but of course with the Commie government spin I try to summarize. What
Pres. Díaz-Canel said about it on TV. Blames the ``criminal`` demos on
social media and the USA waging unconventional war on the island.
Emphasizes counter-demonstrations by those supporting The Revolution.
One of the complaints is power outages: Matanzas power station is

Anyhow, ``the noise of life in the big city``.

While sufficient, the signal at S8 has some deep fades to S1, and even
at peak I never hear any such noise distraxion. Also working from
home, I am conscious of noise such as trains, planes, TV in the next
room, but rarely detectable on my playbacks. Says the new studios at
REE they can`t use have good soundproofing, but nothing like the old
ones which were double-doored like a submarine.

This ``DX program`` really a mailbag is all about one e-mail received
3 July, from our very own Alan Holder on the Isle of Wight, which
Justin has never visited. Alan has been listening to REE since 1977.
Recommends a Roberts Sircon? 94-I internet ``radio`` where stations
can be easily stored. Laments Alison Hughes` early retirement. They
agree she has a great voice for radio [so does Justin]. Coe`s device
makes a ping when a new e-mail arrives. What about her replacement,
Amy Egan? Is she on permanent staff? No, semi-permanent more like an
intern with lower pay for 6 months; but she is tech-savvy unlike J&A.
Justin managed to get a front-row seat to a performance by Segovia in
Germany, 1984-85. Still open for suggestions on title for this show,
e.g. as Alan proposes: `Radio-Waves` was used before; You Write Us;
We`ve Got Mail; Nos Escribe.

2222, about to play some outro music for Alan, by another guitarist,
Marc Ridot whose albums JC has bought several of; this one from Songs
of Resistance 1942-2018, about partisans vs Italian fascism, ref.
website indivisible.org accompanying singer Tom Waite who has a rather
croaky voice I can`t understand, finally plays at 2225 until 5+1
timesignal at 2230. Maybe this will repeat on Wednesday as happened
last time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Huge sporadic E opening monitored from 2044 UT
July 11 after seeing DXMAP MUFs above 100 MHz including one patch
around New Orleans which should be just right for DX from Florida at
twice the distance.

It`s notable that during this entire opening I never got anything
below 91.9 even tho the MUF went up to 105? I kept bandscanning across
the NCE band, but no DX even on the semi-open channels 88.1, 89.5,
89.9, 90.7. Almost as if this sporadic E were above a ``lowest usable
frequency``. States and provinces: FL, Veracruz, ID, OR, WA, MT, AB,
VA.

These are in time order, ALWAYS UT, and I have spent a lot more time
researching afterwards than ~3 hours tuning, all on the caradio in hot
garage, vertical antenna so no manipulation there and no extra gain.
And all on my own receiver in real time, no recordings made. Also had
DX-398 as standby at least for some RDS readouts, but never got any.

After each log I copy the WTFDA FM Database listing; eliminating
duplications of H&V kW power and H&V antenna height above average
terrain unless in rare cases they differ. Headers at the FMDB are as
follows; in many cases some fields are blank or duplicative:

Callsign Relay of Frequency City S/P Country Mode Lang Format Slogan
ERP-H ERP-V HAAT-H HAAT-V Lat-N Long-W PI Code PS Info Radiotext PTY
Remarks

Many of these lack a definite ID, but I make best guesses based on
PTA, format, what is said, choosing full power stations rather than LP
or translators. Since I am not counting stations, states or anything,
nor QSLing, these presumptions are not a problem, but my best effort
at identifying what has come in. Some OKies/Kansies included as I run
across them hoping for Es DX instead.

I go to all this trouble, out of quality interest in the details; as I
find those who go for quantity, with minimum one-liner details to be
virtually unreadable, unless searching for some clue later. Also of
course, this is how I want my log archive to read. Distances are
approx., city-to-city, not site-to-site.

94.3 at 2043 and for many hours afterwards, once again as on previous
Sundays, my nearby Enid local KLGB-LP is open carrier/dead air, so
makes it a little easier to pull stations on 94.1 & 94.5. Its RDS
still displays KLGB even when tuned down to 94.05. Someones at the
other ends could have DXed it that way. But why don`t they just turn
it off?

97.3 at 2044, S Florida ad for Diamonds Direct in Boca Ratón, come see

CKUAs; with one radio I can`t tell if synchronised. Outro as from Cape

no, she`s Lark Clark per CKUA program sked; CKUA ID in passing

** VANUATU. 11835, July 12 at 0630, JBA carrier presumed RV. I`ve not

starters (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4975, July 12 at 0636, JBA carrier, S7 better than 11835
Vanuatu, but no modulation audible. Since my last report:

** U S A. 7730, July 11 at 0635, WRMI with TOMBS undermodulated, vs
much louder on 7570. Seems a lot of time now some other voice than
Brother HyStairical. Is there an anointed successor? And does he have
to have been charged with sexual misconduct? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re my remark about TimTron on WBCQ, John Carver replies:
``Glenn, For what it's worth. TimTron World Wide is still on Saturday
and Sunday evenings on 6160 on the Area 51 feed at 2300. John``

``O yes, as on sked; I must have read the wrong line. The UFO show at
2300 must have been carved out of Overcomer shown as until 2400 Sat on
7490. Glenn``

``I will say that his illness has affected him some as he plays lots
of older shows. Of course he has tons of old shows to choose from.
Sometimes he will make a new show and run it one night on Area 51 and
then the next night on his low power FM. The show he ran this evening
did have today's date on it. John`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4975, July 11 at 0639, JBA carrier vs splash from 4980
WRMI. Normally nothing on 4975 but could be a ute. Nothing in Aoki or
EiBi at any hour on 4975. The 2005y WRTH had China, Colombia, Perú,
Tajikistan and 3 Brazilians. Worth further chex now (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sat July 10 at 1453 tune-in via
Pardinho, Brasil KiwiSDR, LRA36 underway with talk. I`m ``camping`` on
someone in Frankfurt/Main already tuned to 15476.00-USB. By 1522
they`re off and I`m on directly. Talk about Antarctica, saludos,
despedidas, 1523 theme song. But NOT off, 1526.4 starts other music as
I am distracted by FM DX chase in the car. 1620 recheck still on with
songs. 1630 headlines, music, ``Nacional Antártida Argentina, en todo
el país, la radio pública`` ID; 1651 contact info, talk about some
anniversary. Still past 1700, 1713 songs at S4-S5; 1723 closing
credits, 1724 themesong, 1727.5 more music, really running late today,
1749, or was it 1744 I scribbled, stops without formal sign-off, and
reduced carrier is also turned off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR0

** CUBA. 5025, July 10 at 0557, R. Rebelde is S9+20/30 but
undermodulated. Tuning up to 5040 for RHC I can`t read the meter
before it cuts off at 0557.5*. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15370, July 10 at 2248, RHC is S7-S8 but very undermodulated.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.943, July 10 at 0552, VON is on already with
undermodulated music. I also measured it on 7254.93, 15 months ago, so
its degree of offness quite steady and reliable. Whether this
transmitter be on air at all quite another matter (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2094 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
July 10 at 1300 on WRMI 15770, S8-S9 direct.

Also confirmed Sat July 10 at 1624 the 1600 on WRN webcast to NAm.

Also confirmed Sat July 10 from 1800:38 on IRRS 7290 via UTwente SDR,
4 seconds behind Italia AM 918 via Noale SDR. Altho presumably fed by
same studio playout, very different audio results. Good fi on 918 but
lower fi and rough on 7290, the latter also boosting my breaths as if
I were gasping every few seconds, while they are unnoticeable on
original recording and 918.

Earlier on 7290: 1749 tune-in just as Iran? ends but S7 warble on plus
side; LSB reads S5 with noise level, but trace of a carrier presumably
Chinese for a bit longer. 1759.8 JIP Aïda theme about a minute after
it had started on 918, brief IRRS sign-on, pause and WOR playback.

Earlier on 918: at 1757 UT, 6:00 timecheck by WUSB Stony Brook NY and
time for `Off the Wall`, but 1758.8 switch to ``Triumphal March from
Aïda`` theme of IRRS; steady S9+17 at near-local range. 918 WOR is
running about 4 seconds ahead of 7290 WOR via two different SDRs.

Over on both before 1830, into gospel huxter; then I check UTwente for
2nd harmonic on 14580 and can detect a trace of it.

Not confirmed Sat July 10 circa 1930 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO; checked
at 1955, the near local KB0FX KiwiSDR is offline! And none closer than
KS, IL or IN, which are not getting it in the daytime.

Confirmed Sat July 10 at new time 2000 on WRMI 15770, VG S9+10/15 into
Maine SDR; and S9-S7 into UTwente so this worx too for Europe.

I`ve not been checking every week but do so this time for the
webcast-only of WOR by NEXUS/IBA/IRRS/IPAR scheduled for Saturday 2330
via https://www.nexus.org/mp3/ --- There is still `Feature Story News
Week in Review` first from 2330.5, delaying WOR start until 2333.8.
Which means this always-29-minute program needs to play until 2402.8.
But the last few minutes are still chopped off: fades down to dead air
at 0000.4, comes back for a few sex, and then music fill which should
be totally disposable. I wish they would either put the FSN somewhere
else or let WOR play till finished. Next:

0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315; as late as 0400]
2000 UT Sunday IRRS 918-Italy

** U S A. 5950, Sat July 10 at 2200 I tune 5950 on the W8BUG SDR in
Knoxville-Oak Ridge which normally provides good reception of WRMI for
`Encore` classical music hour --- but nothin but noise so this WRMI
must be off. But at 2242 I check own rx and do get a JBA carrier. Back
to W8BUG: still nothing, and I do mean nothing showing on waterfall on
this or other bands. Must be disconnected. Title on webpage invites
contacts but I find no link to do it! Switch to another Kiwi in south
Georgia, and there is 5950 with Encore. Will have to catch the next
play at 0100 on 5850. Which I do, July 11, sufficient S9+20/30 via
Birmingham AL SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5950, Sat July 10 at 2300, Georgia SDR is still running
after `Encore` when next on WRMI is `Your UFO Show`, evidently
something new. Described on RMI programming page that is simulcast on
WBCQ 7490; and so it is during the hour formerly known as `Radio
TimTron Worldwide`. I guess it`s gone since TT is ailing, too bad.
Out-of-date WBCQ sked still shows RTTW not YUFOS. Listened to a bit of
it: informal chat hoping people will call in (live?) with UFO tales,
but meanwhile he reads a recipe. Retune at 2325 to dead air but player
still running -- o, it was a pause for prayer: better watch out: some
stations sense silence and kick in fill music or something after a few
sex: but certainly not the ones with long dead air spans like most
recently KRVN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9265V, July 10 at 0549, WINB is OFF --- now supposed to be
TOMBS at 0400-0700 daily per Overkiller website (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. (5085), UT Sunday July 11 at 0030, WTWW-2 ID with Star
Spangled Banner clip as produxion music, and `Theater Organ Under the
Arch` which I listen to on $ tereo webcast rather than distorted 5085.
As usual runs over a minute or two, as I am already retuning to 5850
remote for `Encore` from 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. MUF of 138 MHz on the DXMAP somewhere around Memphis, so
there ought to be some FM DX as I head to the car, July 10 after 1530.
Bandscanning 87.5-97.5 MHz turns up nothing unusual until 1557 on 96.5
I hear some religion unlikely from either Okie I think, but 1600 UT a
KECO Elk City ID which may or may not be from same. Fox `News` from
something until 1602, some other news; 1612 ad for a Kia dealer on
I-71 amid CCI. That`s something to go on: I-71 runs from Louisville KY
thru Cincinnati, Columbus, Cleveland OH. The only 96.5 station along
that route is in Lebanon OH, WFTK --- but I can`t correlate with a Kia
dealer there. O well (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
