** CUBA. 9700, Nov 27 at 0723, RHC English on this new frequency, S9
and undermodulated --- and by now NONE of The Cuban Five are still on
the air on 59 & 49 metres! Not clear when it start but not yet on when
I checked ~7 hours earlier. Tnx for tip last night in BDXC-UK:

``Radio Havana Cuba (RHC) English heard on 9700 kHz this morning [Nov
26], instead of 6165 kHz, from 0520 UTC tune-in. In parallel to
regular strong 6000 kHz. At 0600 UTC, 6000 and 9700 were joined by
usual frequencies 5040 6060 and 6100 kHz in English. 9700 is difficult
to hear here in the UK as Voice of Turkey uses 9700 in Turkish
0400-0700 UTC. But RHC was audible further west in USA on 9700 using
KiwiSDRs e.g. in Kansas or Colorado. (RHC had used 9700 in B20 period
for a few weeks from November 2020 but then had reverted to 6145 if I
remember correctly). 73 Alan Pennington, Caversham, UK`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 15285.052V, Nov 27 at 1620, algo JBA off-frequency and
wavering. Aoki shows this hour is R. Manara International in Hausa via
Issoudun site. With my habitual USB bandscanning in 1-kHz steps, these
stick out sorethumbedly. See also SAO TOME (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.070, Nov 27 at 1622, another JBA
off-frequency besides FRANCE 15285+. This one is VOA Pinheira
scheduled this semihour in Kir = Kinyarwanda/Kirundi (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 2097.3 CW, Nov 27 at 0730 UT, the single-letter beacon A is
back!!! JBA. I bandscan past here almost every night and have always
been alert for it since last logged in *2020*:

``UNIDENTIFIED. 2097.3, May 31 at 0619 UT, single-letter beacon A is
JBA
in noise level, every dekasecond. Altho a reliable source has assured
us it is not heard as a local signal in Quartzsite AZ, I see in
classaxe.com it is still placed in Quartzite [sic] with a period of
10.14 seconds, last logged by anyone there 2020-08-05. QZ is about 17
miles from the CA border on I-10``

With a 10-second period, one must park on 2097 USB for at least that
long. I keep listening a while and find it has sometimes faded out. It
barely makes it vs noise level of S7-S8 in USB mode, or S8-S9 in AM
mode. Now not to be found on classaxe nor LWCA lists. Also note the
numerical date cited ``2020-08-05``, but that was posted on May 31,
2020, when Aug 5 would have been in the future. Did that mean May 8??
Not the usual format, but another failure of ambiguous numerical
dating, rather than not being too lazy to spell out the month!

4095.65, Nov 27, 2021 at 0728, the Desert Whooper beacon also JBA with
sweeps upward, as often heard no more than that and not always logged
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2114 monitoring: checking 7290 IRRS
via BULGARIA early at 1903 Fri Nov 26: already on with `Feature Story
News, Spotlight`; via UTwente, only S6-S7 with heavy ACI from 7295
China, even when tuning LSB only. Also on 918 kHz, Italia AM, via
Noale remote a few seconds apart, S9+5/15 above Spanish CCI and also
ACI from 909, not much on 927; 1905 `UN News in Brief`. 1909 `Country
Jamboree` with tunes including `Wake Up, Little Susie`. But only
filler until

1915 IRRS SW ID falsely claiming that it`s in reduced carrier SSB;
and right into WOR 2114 as scheduled; recheck ending at 1944 so played
to completion, but had faded down further, still heavy 7295 ACI; and
into music, hymns.

Also confirmed repeat Fri Nov 26 at 2130 on 918 kHz only, S9+10 into
nearby Noale, with SAH and het from an unID carrier about 919.50 -6 Hz
which was not there earlier. Also checking the 909 kHz ACI: it`s in
Romanian. Three different stations are listed, so three different
programs: 200 kW Cluj with R3 and Hungarian/ethnic; 50 kW Timishoara
with pgm 1; 25 kW Constantsa with R4.

Also confirmed Fri Nov 26 at 2330 on WRMI 5950, S9+10/20 direct.

Also confirmed UT Saturday November 27 at 0230 on WRMI 9395, but can`t
find a good signal anywhere, tnx a lot, MUF! VP to MO and MB SDRs,
nothing to WI, despite 355 azimuth; best offbeam at Maryland S8 vs
high noise level. Next:

** U S A. 7490, Nov 27 at 0036, WBCQ chex via Maryland remote: this
one is S9 but -57 Hz off-frequency = 7489.943 during FKB gospel
huxter. 6160 S5 with rock at -52 Hz = 6159.948. 4790 S7 with TOMBS
-19.5 Hz = 4789.9805. 3265: NO signal. 9330 S9+10 in WLCR Brazuguese,
+0.6 Hz = 9330.0006.

I`m all set for `AAAWWW` on 7490 webcast, UT Sat from 0100: abrupt JIP
`WTO` theme, ``Here we go`` interjexion. A&A are somewhat
overmodulated especially when they interrupt and try to talk over each
other. Allan says it`s ``live``. About picking his nose; riding
horses, Angela doesn`t know how, so is taking lessons? 0113
``trimulcasting` on 7490, 6160, 4790. 0124, `Amos `n` Andy` was hugely
popular at 7 pm ET, every family listening. Whether old radios should
be restored to operational or collected as are, e.g. Atwater-Kents
which were very well made. On and on about radios and very little
political diatribe this week. 0153 FRW stuff, presumably from last
week since this week`s isn`t out yet. 0156 he finally makes a
datestamp, 26 of November, YOOLF 2021; on 7490, 6160, 4790, but
specifically says ``3265 not tonight`` (Wolfgang Bueschel reported
hearing it a few days ago at a very different time, but never heard
here; he since retracted that). Quick look at email including new
pirate logs just in from Larry Will. 0159 prayer running over,
closing, and 0201 JIP Hal Turner. John Carver`s version:

``Tonight's show started on time on 4790, 6160 with a very poor signal
and 7490 was not much better. Allan and Angela in the studio and
opening talk about horses and mounting and dismounting horses
bareback. Then some radio talk and a conversation about an old tube
that Allan has on the desk and then into crystal radio sets. Then into
commercial radio sets from the late twenties and thirties.

At 0153 Allan reads the highlights from the Free Radio News. A bit of
political talk about the IRS and some other governmental agencies at
0155 and then some emails. Program was off the air at 0200. John,
Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. Nov 26 at 0724-0745 UT, another quiet night for LW beacons,
only minor storms in NAm along the BCS/BCN border and the Tamaulipas
coast. Skipping relogs of some major Canadians stronger than usual:

276 MCW kHz, Nov 26 at 0730 UT, dash and YEL, 200 watt NDB at ELliott
Lake, Ontario, to be decommissioned 2022-01-27. I always wish this

Manitoba

218 MCW kHz, Nov 26 at 0734 UT, dash and YUY, 500 watt NDB at

338 MCW kHz, Nov 26 at 0724 UT, RYN, 400 watt ND beacon at Tucson /

heard before. Careful not to confuse with RYD in FL.

329 MCW kHz, Nov 26 at 0726 UT, AAA, 25 watt NDB at Lincoln / Abraham

293 MCW kHz, Nov 26 at 0728 UT, UI, 30 watt NDB at qUIncy IL, mixing
with FBY, 25 watts at FairBurY NE: the latter normally dominant alone,
and no sign now of TOR in WY. These three are the only USAs on 293 per
dxinfocentre.com

it. No K6FRC on 13565 now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2114 monitoring: confirmed first
SWBCs, UT Friday November 26 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 good direct and
S9+30 into MO SDR; 7780, 9+10/15 into UTwente above some lightning
crashes; nearest storms in Corsica, central Mediterranean.

Also confirmed UT Fri Nov 26 at 0330 on WRMI 5985 southward; VP to TWR
Boa Vista SDR; JBA to Trinidad; nor to TWR DR; axually better off the
back to USA SDRs: S5-S6 to Knoxville, but ACI 5980 jamming; best to
Uniontown PA, S9 but SAM reads +95 Hz carrier; yet others such as
Querétaro, S7-S8 shows only -7 Hz. I think the Uniontown is
miscalibrated. Next:

4KZ; no signals from the other Pacificans on 5045, 5040, 5035, 5020.
Solomons has been missing lately per Ron, and now there are reports of
political unrest, as in RNZP news at 1300 on 7390 as monitored by
Rodney Johnson, MN, Nov 24:

``A police station and several shops have been set on fire by looters
in Solomon Islands after what started in the morning as a peaceful
protest, calling for the prime minister Manasseh Sogavare to step
down, turned ugly around mid-afternoon.`` UT Nov 25: ``Authorities are
calling for calm and accountability in Solomon Islands, after
political protests developed into looting and buildings were burned in
the capital Honiara`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 6150, Nov 25 at 0726, JBA carrier, maybe the new R. Saturno
at an hour when Manuel Méndez has been hearing it in Spain. Aoki does
not know about it yet, but shows R. Europe, Germany on 6150 starting
at 0700. OTOH, EiBi shows that one from 0900 with Saturno 24h (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9819.124, Nov 25 at 0719, JBA carrrier, no doubt the always
off-frequency R. Nove de Julho; one of two ZYs on air overnight on 31
m, the other:

9666.252V, Nov 25 at 0721, S8-S5 music from R. Voz Missionária, a
reliable overnight signal which has been drifting slowly upwards.
Nothing on its lower frequency 5939+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, re squeal I reported, et al., Alan Holder replies on
the WOR iog:

``Not a new problem. One of the transmitters has shown this fault for
several months. For a long time it was parked on 11530/9525 jamming
Denge Welat. But they tend to switch the transmitters around.

I e-mailed Hasan Altan of TRT engineering about the squealy modulation
on August 5. He promised to pass this information on to the engineers
at Emirler, and he would monitor the situation. Nothing happened for
several months, so I e-mailed him again on October 19. So far, no
reply.

Another of the transmitters suffers from slight hum and a lower
modulation output. You have no doubt observed this on several
occasions when listening.

Regarding your often reported missing 2200/2300 English broadcast, I
suspect it might be their time for transmitter maintenance. Including
the jammer on Denge Welat, all five transmitters are in use at one
point (1400) during the day. but this drops down to only one or two
between 2300 and 0200 UT. Alan Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.``
