** AUSTRIA. 11930, May 23 at 0601, VP signal talking: surprised
anything here except Cuban jamming anytime and RM in daytime. HFCC
shows this semihour only is BBC French via Moosbrunn, 300 kW at 235
degrees toward W Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, May 23 at 0606, RHC is S9 but undermodulated; 6165 is
S9/+10 of dead air; 5040 S9+20 of dead air; 6000 is off. Only 6100 is
VG S9+20 with normal modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, May 23 at 1501, this RHC has humbuzz, ID giving it and
only 15140, FM from this hour; 1503 late start Esperanto on both.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EUROPE. 4909.986v, May 23 at 1845, Free Radio Service Holland in
publicized Whitsunday broadcast to last until 2005*, on four
frequencies at once. All are well audible via UTwente but 4910 is best
at S9+20; 7700.058v tuned first at 1841, S8; 5790.038v S7-S8;
3919.923v only S9. Latest publicity via Manuel Mendez said,

``Dear FRS Friend, Next Sunday FRSH will be airing a 70s evening full
of nostalgia. The broadcast will be aired on no less than 4
frequencies being: 3920, 4905, 5790 (or a nearby channel) & 7700
kHz``

Acknowledging presumably real-time listener mail, Zacharias Liangas,
Thessaloniki at 1852. Earlier at 1845 said printed QSL required P-mail
reports only with E/$ 3 rp; 1847 ``more music``. Lots of produxion
liners, jingles. 1900 TCs and ID, then ``Made in Holland`` focusing on
1970s music --- rock! What else? There is no other kind of music, is
there? I guess this nostalgic stuff be significant to elder Europeans,
but if it were American would not be significant to this elder
American lover of classical music.

Altho quite strong signals, not in skip zones, each exhibits some
fading into UTwente, which might not happen if any be at ``local``
range in Holland. I keep filing FRSH under Europe since it`s a pirate,
not necessarily transmitting from inside Holland, despite the name.
Why don`t they get legal? Private SW stations are being licensed. WRTH
2021 page 486 International sexion shows three ex-pirate SW stations
under Netherlands (plus Mighty KBC which openly transmits via
Germany).

At 1913 the DJ lists the four frequencies including ``4900`` -- what
does he know? Then acknowledging reception reports from March 14. By
1917 I`ve had enough of this hyper-frenetic hype, and bail out, back
to WYSU webcast for `With Heart & Voice`, sacred choral and organ
music I enjoy every Sunday afternoon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15760, May 23 at 0055 and earlier, JBA carrier on almost
vacant 19 mb except for 15230 Cuba. Aoki shows nothing but CNR1
*jammer & Sound of Hope over long span, surely the former. This week
on WOR 2087, I quote Ron Howard on how to tell them apart (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, May 22 at 2256, Cuban music in Spanish, S9/+5, not //
11760. 2258 IS & Spanish ID, 2259 intro English hour with program
previews including Chief Meteorologist Jose Rubiera. Still going at
2323 and // much inferior 5040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13603, May 22 at 2151, distorted FM spurblob of RHC with F#
tone, at this hour 137 kHz below S9+5 source 13740-AM, so it`s
second-order; also stronger S3-S8 on 13671, first-order, 69 kHz below.
Much less on upper matches 13809, 13878, all approx. Obviously the
same transmitter which behaves this way in the mornings from 13700,
and the 13740 then is different. Aoki says the spurry one is Bauta,
the other, Bejucal. ``Something`s always wrong at RHC.`` BTW a Google
search on my remark gets 2590 hits if spelt with a grave accent for
the apostrophe, and only 238 if spelt with a single quote mark, which
I avoid because it can often display as a garbled character unlike `
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6933-USB, May 23 at 2157, pirate music, S5 vs storm
noise peaks of S7 on my rx; 2212 gone? 2226 still/again music. 2231
via MO remote, S7-S9 Johnny Cash, 2235 ID as Goat Herder Radio, says
will play Ian & Sylvia next; 2243 recheck off. A few more logs and a
striking illustration:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,81946.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955-USB, May 23 at 0003 rock music at S7; 0011 &
0018 announcements but unreadable due to high storm noise level; 0044
a canned ID but still unreadable. These say it`s Radio Free Whatever;
after 2 or 3 QSYs:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,81942.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SCOTLAND [non]. 5850, UT Sun May 23 at 0100-0159, WRMI with
`Encore` classical music from R. Tumbril; I enjoy it every week,
preferably at this time with best reception, now for convenience via
MO remote but also VG direct. Composers this week: Mozart, Mahler,
Sibelius, Mendelssohn, Ravel, Schubert (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, May 22 at 2142, zero signal from REE to N America and
may not even be on air, or unpropagable. 15520 for ME is only S2-S4
off the back (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2087 monitoring: confirmed Saturday May 22
starting at 1937 UT on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO; VG local level

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sat May 22 at 1452 tune-in via Pardinho
remote in Brasil, LRA36 in progress, S5-S6 but noisy, with heavy rock
music, just what we need from that continent. 1453 ``Nacional, la
radio pública`` canned ID; 1457 LRA36 canned ID; 1515 efemérides -
this date in history, such as something in 1995y. Sounds like dates
are in marzo, i.e. an old show playback? Or is it ``mayo``, with the
cono-sur accent like ``mazho``, very hard to tell them apart.

At 1519 I switch to the PT2FHC Brasília #1 Kiwi where the signal is
very weak S1-S2 but better SNR. Mostly non-rock more pleasant music
with IDs frequently interspersed such as 1527, 1531; 1537 the
Antártida song signifying end of show; 1540 fading almost out, another
song. 1544 reopening with 4-language intro; 1547 Antda. song and
welcoming us to program, a different one?? 1555 operatic song; 1600
ID, march tune, then long lexure but too weak to get much out of it;
still going past 1621. 1646 ID, music; 1651 another ID and efemérides
again with the marzo/mayo confusion. 1705 more IDs and music past
1713. 1719 the Antda. song. 1725 just about faded out but still on
with music, S1 vs noise level. Recovers some, still at 1741 Antda.
song again; 1750 more songs at S2 past 1804 when I break for a lentil
lunch; 1818 ID with contact info for QSL; past 1832. I`ve used up my
allowed 3 hours on that remote so back to Pardinho: 1832 now up to
S6-S7, mostly music; 1846 Antda. song, finally stopping? NO, pause and
more music past 1913 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13628 approx., May 22 at 1442, FMish spurblob from RHC 13700
is S3-S4 here, and only a trace on opposite 13772. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. Unrelated 13740 is also on at S7-S8 but JBM. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [non]. 7355, May 22 at 0506, news in English, mostly about
USA; what`s this? NHK Warudo Radio Japan via FRANCE, as scheduled only
on UT Sat & Sun; other DOW, at 0430-0500; S9+10/20 so has to suffice
for North Americans abandoned directly by NHK years ago. Beam is 155
degrees toward CIRAFs 53 & 57 = from Tanzania to Madagascar to RSA to
Namibia, where people are still allowed to listen on SW; therefore
directly off the back would be 335. Uplooked later, the // is 7245 via
Vatican to W Africa. 0545 recheck, only residual pulse jamming on 7355
against no Martí but which I was not noticing while NHK was emitting
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, May 22 at 0511, RNZI is S9+20, and the OSOB;
had been starting at 0600 except when absent. Current sked at
https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/listen
shows 11725 at 0459-0658 daily; preceded by 13840 which changed as of
May 17 to 2058-0458. Currently never in use: 15720, 9700 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 18116-USB, May 22 at 1445, K5EC calling ``CQ Parx on the
Air`` over and over with no response for a minute or two; eventually
says he is in Bryce Canyon NP. Rather rough modulation and the OSOB,
tnx to HF sporadic E barely exceeding 18 MHz MUF. QRZ.com home info:

``K5EC USA flag USA, JOHN R BONICA, HOUSTON, TX 77096-2305 USA

WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2087 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 22 at 1307 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, S8-S9. Next:

Confirmed Sat May 22 from 1800:34 on IRRS via Bulgaria 7290, resumed
after a two-week pre-emption break. Via Padova SDR, checking 918 Villa
Estense, Italy which is supposed to duplicate, but since 1756 it keeps
playing music past 1804 as I break for lentil lunch, but then at 1819
I find WOR has been JIP in the meantime, and both play to conclusion
1829:34 but not exactly synchronized at least via two different
remotes. Earlier tune-in of 7290 via UTwente: 1756 the ute warble is
back on USB but inaudible on LSB. Open carrier at S9+25. 1759:48
abrupt JIP `Aida`` theme and quick sign-on, pause and WOR plays.

** CANADA. 6754-USB, May 21 at 0257, Trenton Military time check as
0255z! Only two minutes off rather than 61, but still not good enough.
Let`s hope the meteo info be more accurate. At first: ``no report
received`` from Winnipeg, Cold Lake, but then some others succeed. Why
don`t all stations reliably send reports?? Or why can`t CHR reliably
receive them? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13630, May 21 at 1403, JBA spurblob from RHC 13700 which is
only S8-S9; can`t detect a match on 13770. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, May 21 at 2210, dead air from RHC when French is
scheduled. At 2301 when English should start, dead signal. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, May 21 at 0613, after two nights` absence, ORTM must be
back on with S9+15 signal but just barely modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-AM, May 22 at 0107, pirate music S7-S9, not
enough vs storm noise level; 0108 unreadable announcement. These say
it`s WDOG:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,81879.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960-AM, May 22 at 0107 UT, pirate music S9/+10;
must be Ball Smacker Radio on regular Friday-at-8-Central sked. Yes:
ID with tenpins at 0132. Better than 6925 but still too much noise.
Many more logs:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,81880.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 21 at 1552 and still at 2330 UT, Enid`s only
TV signal, K17JN-D is on the air at usual local-strong level, but
totally black and silent on all 5 subchannels of 3ABN network;
including 17-5 which still triggers ``unsupported audio codec`` on my
Sanyo screen but not with antenna feed split onto my CRT set via STB
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday May 21 at 2200, token English from REE starts
with timesignal 1 second late compared to WWV; can`t they do any
better? Justin Coe says later will feature a new album by José Luís
Montón, of flamenco mixing classical, but first Amy Egan on what`s
happening in Spain. This is VG S8-S9, better than the other three all
audible, 15520, 11940 and 11685. Some of her topix: Those with first
AstraZeneca shot may get their second from Pfizer with no problems.
Fútbol game to resume in stadium at 30% capacity. DNA study by
University of Granada to determine Colón`s ethnicity; Catalan from
Aragón, maybe. 2208 into the music starting with ``Voy a quedarme``
which is Spain`s entry in the Eurovision Song Contest, finale this
Sunday in Holanda. 2210 versions of Schubert`s ``Ave Maria``. ``Song
of Freedom`` inspired by Beethoven`s Pathétique Sonata, and more to
2330 mistimesignal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 21 at 2158, heavy S9 NSS RTTY only, no sign of
VOT English to NAm; but at 2210 RTTY is off and VP music audible,
S6-S8 but undermodulated. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOE)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2087 monitoring: NOT confirmed Friday May 21
at 2030 on IRRS via Italia-AM, 918 kHz, via IZ3EAW nearby remote,
steady S7.7. Some talk show cut off at 2030 for ID, but then FSN and
FSN Spotlite, and then VOA News! WOR is still on the Friday 22:30 CEST
program schedule of IRRS. We can only hope the SW broadcast on 7290
across Europe from Bulgaria will really resume as planned this
Saturday at 1801 when also scheduled on 918. Next:

** U S A. 9955, May 21 at 1400, opening gospel huxter from Pánama
City, FL, especially on WRMI as he keeps mentioning. Subject is
delusions suffered by Christians! But not the main one, surely.
Wrapping up at 1413, says he`s on M-F; and 1415 into world music fill,
heavy SE Asian? percussion piece; 1429 ``calling Ivory Coast`` etc.,
ID cribbed from WNYW, 1430 JIP BS. Skedgrid updated May 10 now shows
this at 1400 as if a semi-hour long, with TOMBS not starting until
1430 daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9), May 22 from 0000, webcast of WBCQ `AAAWWW`. Not
listening intently, but some notes: long discussion of UFOs --- maybe
they are forms of pure intelligent energy, the ultimate evolution of
us humans too? How long has it been since Angela sat down and wrote a
letter with a pen or pencil? She can`t remember. 0036 first caller on
the air does not identify himself yet he goes on for some 5? minutes
uninterrupted until Allan finally asks who he is, so he can blow him
off? Tim. 0044 finally datestamp as 21 May YOOL 2021 from studio 9 in
Deland of Fla. He then emphasizes that WBCQ does QSL ``99.9%`` and
reads a number of reception reports in some detail. 0054 `Angela`s
Angle` does not amount to much, as then Allan mainly worries about the
#2 pandemic: obesity; need to weigh airline passengers each to avoid
overloading. John Carver`s version:

``Tonight's show started on time on 6160 and 7490. Angela looks
beautiful this evening and if the show was on TV it would be X rated
according to Allan. Opening talk about writing letters which morphs
into talk of QSL cards and requesting same. A brief comment about 6160
being a busy transmitter and now carrying the old Area 51 which he
named Area 61 moved the conversation to UFOs and Aliens. Phone call at
0036 talking about aliens amongst us.

Reading of some QSL requests at 0046. Angela's Angle at 0054 talking
about weight limits on airplanes and a new practice of some airlines
weighing passengers before they board implying that they would refuse
access to terribly obese people as they break seats, have more health
problems and could cause a crash because of the plane being
overloaded. No reading of [any other] emails this evening. Closing
prayer at 0059. Off at 0101. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, May 20 at 0612, RHC English with Chief Meteorologist
providing hardly-needed weather info for the NW Hemisphere, but big
humbuzz again on this frequency; while 6100 & 6165 are equally good;
6000 is off; and 5040 in Spanish. Ivo keeps reporting 5040 in
``wrong`` language before and after 06; but maybe now it could be the
``right`` language if intentionally changed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Mul ISS 15445 19 500 4/4/.8 128 7123456``

So unlike the others, it`s projected. Google translate identifies the
name as Somali, which is a minolity language in Ethiopia. Removing the
first word, however, if guesses Hindi, in neither case translating the
second and third words, must be proper names. Broadly searching on the
full name gets nothing but the Bulgarian DX blog where this is also
mentioned today.

I check 15445 May 20 at 1700, but indeed no signals yet into Kuwait
SDR or UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** MALI. 5995, May 20 at 0611, for second night, Bamako is missing.
How about the day frequency after 0800, 9635? Seldom heard here and I
think was already sporadic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** NEW ZEALAND [non]. 11725, May 20 at 0603, no signal from RNZI, tho
Vanuatu manages a JBA carrier on 11835. Since it`s Thursday, maybe
RNZI sked askew for maintenance chex. Also have signals on 11895,
11995, 12030, 12050. 11895 is usual NMI; the others? Per Aoki, 11995 =
RFI Hausa; 12030 BBC French via Sao Tome; 12050 Ndadrason via
Woofferton (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

First WOR 2087 broadcasts confirmed on WRMIs, UT Fri May 21 at 0130,
on 7780, S9 and noisy into UTwente; and 5850, VG S9+35/40 into KB0FX
remote in MO, also VG direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 5890, May 20 at 0609, WWCR Dead Brother Scare, but
with Dead Gene Scott audio from 5935 clearly audible mixing at
somewhat lower level. 5935? Also such a modulation mix at about equal
levels, and S9+30! Among several dead gospel huxters WWCR propagates
but now WWCR outdoes itself, two at a time, twice! In all these years
of SWBC, WWCR still doesn`t have its basic act together; human error,
or what?

When both signals be strong as this we`ve easily heard
inter-modulation = leapfrog mixing product on 5980, another 45 kHz
upward --- but not now, not even a carrier under the Cuban jamming
against nothing. Well, WWCR manages to mix itself up one way or
another! How about the other two WWCRs? At 0613, also dead the air on
4840 at S9+20/30; 3215 is TOMBS alone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2087)
