** BRAZIL. Reply to my recent obs: ``Rádio Voz Missionária, Camboriú
--- Hi Glenn, Rádio Voz Missionária announced last week that its
transmitters and antennas at 9665 and 5940 kHz would undergo technical
maintenance, which is why these frequencies would be off the air for
the time being. I hope that, especially, the frequency of 5940 kHz
will be 'purified' of its spurious signals above and below its usual
frequency, which greatly interfered with reception on some other
frequencies. 73, Rudolf Grimm, São Bernardo SP, BRAZIL`` (Glenn

** U S A. 5085, Jan 31 at 0400, WTWW-2 remains active; following
Ancient Word Radio, stays on with hymns until chop at 0427.6*. 24
hours later should be WOR. Also need to check whether also on stream?
Previously was not, even when WOR heard on 5085. Oh oh, UT Sat Feb 1
after 0100, 5085 is on again, but after  0207, gone again. But 0300,
back on again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WBCQ chex pre-`AAAWWW` UT Sat Feb 1 at 0057, into Maryland
SDR: 3265 off. 5130 -2 Hz = 5129.998 IS & ID, S9/+10. 6160 -67 Hz =

Portuguese S9+15/25. At 0100, 5130 & 7490 & 9330 again join for
`AAAWWW`, ``WTO`` theme. First talkover starts: ``Ah yes, all this
electromagnetic waves...`` and single-word interjexion toward end
sounds like ``Him``. In future these will cue us right away that it`s
a rerun. Immediately into a song `Pilot of the Airwaves`. 0106
international SW radio is ``fancy AM``. 0109 jumps on ``National
Socialist Public Radio`` and CPB for allegedly running advertising
despite government funding, as FCC under new chairman is
investigating. {Axually taxpayer/govt funding is a very minor part of
their funding, and the ``ads`` are underwriting credits.} 0115 musing
about AI taking over everything including broadcasting -- except SW,
WBCQ! Lauds 4CX35,000 tetrode tube which can run 50 to 100 kW. 0127
datestamp as 31 January YOOL 2025, from Studio 9 in Deland of Fla, hot
82F today. 0130 Ian wants to hear a song called ``Shortwave Radio``.
0141 song request from Patricia, can`t find it. 0147 request for
``Mexican Radio`` song. 0152 email from east Alaska pro-Drumpf and
more of that. 0154 Nyack request. 0158 praying. 0159 Bible is owner`s
manual. 0200 axually over probably in time for Hal Turner opening on
7490, tho I`m listening to 9330 go back to WLCR PP (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 15610.005, Jan 31 at 1644, WEWN on again with open carrier
except for low level hi-pitched whine, audible on more than one
remote, which also agree on the +5 Hz offset: S9+3 into Maryland SDR;
S7/S9 into UTwente. Still no signal yet on 12050 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 4939.985, Feb 1 at 0221, checking Estación 4940 into
Bonaire, S9/10 with ``nuestro país, lecciones de la historia
colombiana``, which might imply it`s not in Venezuela, but am not
convinced. Talking about the Nueva Granada era, which of course
encompassed both present-day countries as well as Ecuador and Panamá.
Programming has always had a strong Colombian connexion. Calibrated vs
5000.00000 WWV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, Jan 30 at 0125, WTWW-2 reactivated, presumably
SFAWPPPP programming, S9/+20 into Maryland SDR. Also JBV [just barely
visible on waterfall] trace of parasitic spur about 5072 and more
circa 5098, as before. Latest downtime started January 7. I ask George
about this and 9475, and he replies Jan 30: ``If nothing goes wrong
with 5085, your program will air on Friday night [UT Sat 0400]. 9475
is still up in the air while I am fighting other transmitter problems.

** U S A. 5890, Jan 30 at 0737, this WWCR-4 is on with TOMBS, running
a dekasecond behind // 5850 WRMI. 5890 is supposedly overnight 06-13
UT only on Sat & Sun but this is Thu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, Jan 30 at 1625, S8/9 almost steady open carrier
direct. Suspect WEWN making comeback. Had been missing for about a
year! EiBi also has CHiCom jamming vs SOH until 1600. I asked Glen
Tapley: ``Glen, At 1625 UT today I have a strong S9 and steady open
carrier on 15610. Is that WEWN, about to come back? How about the
other transmitter which had been on 12050? Regards, Glenn Hauser`` --
and he replies: ``Hi Glenn, Yes it is WEWN. Should notice 12050 soon,
but no definite ETA. Glen`` At 1640, Maine SDR also has S9+10/20 on
15610.005, with a slight whine, not sure whether transmitted. Still on
at 1951 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2280)

** BRAZIL. 9665v, Jan 29 at 0655, NO signal from RVM, must be off. At
0701 a JBA carrier about 11750, but could be China. Need to keep
checking for RVM also on 5940- despite WWCR, Nothing on any of the 3
into Bonaire at 1850 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11860 & 11930, Jan 29 at 0703, pulse jamming about S3/S4 vs
nothing, R. Martí frequencies only in daytime. Before 0700, would have
QRMed Romania in English from 0630, foolishly chosen 11930 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 9670, Jan 29 at 0655, ME? music with drumming, S8/S9, too
strong for Channel 292, else? NO, at 0700 it *is* 292 with Germenglish

** U S A [and non]. 3955 LSB, Jan 29 at 0649, ham QSO with QRDRM,
right smack dab amid BBC Woofferton DRM hour 3950-3955-3960; one may
have mentioned some noise. N5KDH with definite fonetik call, per ARRL:
ISTRE, DOUGLAS J, N5KDH, 1610 DEER PARK DR, VIDOR, TX 77662. The other
sounded like K5EEN or K5EDN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 26110 FM, Jan 29 at 1635, S5/S6 news, no doubt KMK282, aux
of KOVR/KMAX Stockton/Sacramento, too weak for full quieting (Glenn

** U S A. 9265, Jan 29 at 0250, WINB, S9+25 with squeals - not noticed
this particular defect on 9265 before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 9960, Jan 29 at 0657, S6/S8 talk in presumed
Bislama, RV better than usual, but off at 0729 check rather than
running over as last few nights. 9955 WRMI undermodulated at S9+26,
not a problem. BTW, WRMI skedgrids are now ``effective Jan 26, 2025``
tho individual System blox still show March 10, 2024 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 518 kHz, Jan 29 at 0708 UT, sounds of NAVTEX. Far too
many choices in complex scheduling, but presumably something closest:
https://dxinfocentre.com/navtex.htm
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5896.5 SSB, Jan 29 at 0157 VG loud and clear signal talk
in English: at first thought a broadcaster off-frequency, until
``out``. MARS or something. Must avoid times WWCR is on 5890, never
noted while it`s on. Klingenfuß 2022 has nothing on this exact
frequency. UDXF iog has only five hits 2015-2020y as USAF MARS and/or
FEMA net (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12169-12213 approx., Jan 29 at 1629, wideband
multi-carrier, multi-tones peaking about 12202 at steady S9+26. Just
far enough above 12160 not to bother WWCR. Same sounds as long heard
circa 17450, quite weak right now; and several other ranges. What is
this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
