Hauser
** CANADA. 15034-USB, Sept 28 at 1738, Trenton Military is on again
but VP S4, Shannon aviation weather (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 13645, Sept 28 at 1743 hilife music, S5-S8. It`s the
CRI Swahili service via MALI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Sept 28 at 1507, tune-in via UTwente to
another weekly Tuesday Kashmir Civitas via IRRS via ROMANIA: S9/+15 in
presumed Urdu, but 1511 abruptly shift to jive music in English!, more
rock, and from 1519 discussion about the Tiananmen Square massacre in
Beijing, interview with a Chinese-American author, Terence Cheng, of a
novel about it, notably the brave anti-tank protester; with music
background until chopped off at 1529* without any RRI IS this time.
Was K.C. really only 11 minutes long this week? Or playback failed and
default to fill material? IRRS webcast is continuous, much of it with
no specific programming but unknown stuff pulled from the web, often
fragmented (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 15720, Sept 29 at 0040, RNZ confirmed on reactivated
frequency but not its true span, VP to the ear but peaking S8-S9 to my
generous meter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 28 at 2155, REE non-English is still somewhat
distorted, but loud & clear on // 17855 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SWEDEN [non]. 15260, Sept 28 at 1737, S7-S9, YL talk in language
unseems Arabish but listed as Arabic from Radio Sama = IBRA Radio, via
Woofferton UK this hour daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 28 at 2152, VOT IS & English ID loop, so looks
good for today unlike absence yesterday, S9/+25 direct and no RTTY
audible in AM --- but detectable in USB, not LSB. Oh2, 2157.6* dumps
off the air; but back on by 2159. Did it remain the whole hour? About
halfway in, it had become JBA on the portable with clipon (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5896.5-USB, Sept 29 at 0045, some weak unreadable 2-way
phone, then mostly beepery until at least 0100. Fortunately there are
no broadcasters nearby but surely will be later. Wonder if NTIA
coördinate this `OOB` area for US broadcasters giving priority to
government/military comms. Last logged May 13, 2020 as MARS net:
http://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2020_0507_0514.txt
which concludes with: ``This is a SHARES net frequency as explained
with my first log July 27, 2016 at the same time
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1630.txt
and there have been several since`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17530, Sept 28 at 1740, VOA discussing need to vaccinate
animals, against rabies, S9/+20 --- a reminder that this 1700-1830
sesquihour is the only time we can hear VOA well in English from
Grimesland - unless too close in the skip zone.

17530 is extensively used for other VOA languages: French, Somali,
Kinyarwanda, Swahili; and sites: Botswana, Vatican violating
Separation of Church and State, São Tomé e Príncipe, Ascension. Can
you mix and match them without uplooking? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring; next:
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary
support; thanks this week to Gerald T Pollard, Raleigh NC, for a
generous
quarterly equinoxial check to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK
73702.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Sept 29 at 0101, no signal from WRNO: but it is on
with gospel huxter in English at next check 0109 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 28 from 0555:
621, 657, 684, 693*, 774(2), 882(2), 909, 936(2), 1044(2), 1053(2),
1116, 1125, 1134, 1152, *1215(2), 1413, 1503 kHz. (2) at least two
carriers beating, at a wide variety of separations/rates. *strongest.
Most probably UK, Spain/Canaries (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** CANADA. 6754-USB, Sept 28 at 0032, Trenton Military is AWOL again,
nor was it heard in earlier Sept 27 daytime chex on 15034-USB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11880, Sept 28 at 0039, RHC is still on here, S9+20
with its own version of French, which is supposed to be on 5040 but
that`s now in Spanish. 11880 is supposed to quit at 2400 after an hour
of English to ``Africa``, BTW often AWOL. This time the sloppyrator is
really asleep at the dial. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

Oh oh, if this keep on past 0100, there will be a big collision with
Greenville relay of KBS World Radio in Spanish, which has been on
11880 all A-season. At 0059 RHC suddenly switches to English as ``Ed
Newman`` is introducing the next hour.

11880, KBS relay comes on about a minute late at 0101, and now they
are mixing about equally with RHC as received direct. I keep checking
every few minutes and RHC is not about to get off! At 0113 during
English from RHC and music from KBS, they add up to S9+20/30; still
0126+.

At 0144 I try Bonaire SDR where it also seems that the two are within
1 Hz of zero-beat, fine going! English is on regular 6000 and 6165 and
harmonic 12000; but 5040 is in S9+10/30 of dead air. At 0150 KBS is
dominating to Bonaire with RHC weakening; but the KB0FX SDR in
Missouri has RHC dominant. KBS relay goes to ``Babcock`` music at
0200-0201* so it looks like Grimesland`s timer is a minute slow.

RHC English keeps on and on 11880 after KBS is finished: 0219 is S5-S7
into MO; still 0258, 0329 tho weakening, 0400 no longer audible and
probably finally off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Sept 28 at 0040, aside all the excitement on 11880,
RHC Spanish is on here, JBM, suptorted, wiggle that patchcord! but
S9+20 signal, still plenty to audiblize the parasitic spurcarriers in
the clear on 11840, and QRMing the jamming against nothing on 11860,
which is even stronger on 11930. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EUROPE. 12264.90V-AM, wavering between 12264.89 and .935 per
UTwente SDR readout in Synch mode, Sept 27 at 1741, JBA signal S7 with
talk, music; but nothing into Maryland remote:

``Dick Spacewalker`` had publicized yesterday [sic]: ``Hi, after 2,5
months of silance Spaceshuttle will have transmission day on Monday
27th of September. Day includes short tests of propagation as well
combined 19th Birthday of us. Only frequency in use will be 12265
kHz... So we have very low power in use. But surprises might happen.
Wishing you luck with listenening``

He had been on earlier around 0800; after my tip several other WOR iog
members were hearing this intermittently past 2000 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO [non]. 5800, UT Tue Sept 28 at 0300, WRMI with special
`México le canta a las Américas`, but also talking interviews, all in
Spanish, greeting from Jeff Blanco at midpoint. VG into Bonaire SDR,
not so good direct. Too much else going on this hour, e.g.
`Klezocalypse Now` on KSFR, so I record for later listening with less
divided attention. First Perú, now this: I hope we`ll be hearing more
LAm countries celebrated. Per WRMI skedgrid, this pre-empts Freedom
Synergy Radio, the dispensable Falungong anti-PRC show most nights
during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. RNZP is not adhering to its own revised transmission
schedule. Sept 27 at 2015 check, nothing on reactivated? 15720, or
13840. 15720 supposedly runs from 2159 to 0258, preceded and followed
by 13840. Next check at 0235 Sept 28: it`s S5-S7 on 13840 into
Missouri SDR, NOT on 15720 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 27 at 2200, REE token English this Monday is
*still* distorted on this S6-S9 frequency; is anyone paying attention?
Something`s always nonsensical at Nobleejas. Fortunately, // 17855 to
NAm is still holding up well, S9/+20 and with good modulation. 15520
good at S3-S7; 11670 S3-S7 but with ute ACI, all direct to OK. News
first with Amy Egan: Canary volcano; illegal drunken parties on the
beaches of Barcelona; international tourism day; a copy of the Mona
Lisa at the Prado. 2211 feature admittedly from the archive: about a
UK blues/rock guitarist at Café Comercial in Madrid. He`s semi-Spanish
and has lived there for a dekayear. Name mentioned once sounded like
B. B. King, but I don`t think that`s right; no podcast yet to check,
the latest being 21/9 since Sept resumption after break from July with
no Augusts at:
https://www.rtve.es/play/audios/emision-en-ingles/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 27 at 2200 and later, no signal from VOT English
to N America, SOB. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Sept 27 at 2019, WBCQ is VP with YL in German? WLCR
back on air, tho missing this morning (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9v), Mon Sept 27 from 2300, WBCQ webcast, attempting
to listen to the semi-repeat of `UBMP`, but it`s still too distorted,
overmodulated; and subject this week, Mexican rock is unappealing.
Ehhh, listen next week, as UB would say. I do notice at 2330 another
of those national spot commercials which precede `Camp Constitution
Radio`, this time for Tim Horton`s Coffee app. What a catch (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11760 et al., UT Monday Sept 27 at 0135, I make a
point of reconfirming RHC DX program `En Contacto` at its third and
last scheduled airing: yes, it has just started. For convenience I`m
tuning via Bonaire SDR. 11760 is not very good, fading down, so at
0140 try 9710 but it has CCI and ACI, i.e. CRI Spanish 9710 via
Cashgar, Turquistán Oriental, tierra de genocidio por los
imperialistas chino-comunistas, en contra de musulmanes, and 9705
probably jammer vs RFA Tibetan via Tajikistan. 9535 is better, but
also with CCI which would be CRI English via via Kashgar --- some
comrades!! By 0145 I`ve switched again to 5040 which is loud &
clear. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

As for content: main topic is the term ``Mayday`` and how it came
about; the locutora massacres the original French, ``m`aider``
pronouncing as if were Spanish. In this brief program it`s broken up
into segments; says that it`s not supposed to be as serious as SOS,
like need-some-help-here, but English usage has led to it being just
as urgent, as a dire emergency. Strangely, she never gets into how it
relates to the big Commie holiday!

Then about several ham DX-peditions with calls and QSL info; and
special events, notably A60EXPO from Dubai. I have the impression she
is reading a script without really understanding it. 0143 seems to
give times for this show, but not clear as I am retuning. 0144 about
solar activity. 0147 references ARRL webpage URLs --- do they not
realize those are from Yanqui Imperialists?? 0148 more about
``Mayday``.

Another topic is ``qué es el desacoplo de la polarización`` =
decoupling of polarization. This only merits a few words at the very
end, and I don`t get it. 0150 closing credits including guión as usual
by CO7GW; locución by Ariadna(?) García. NO mention of Arnaldo Coro
Antich --- how is Arnie doing now? 0151 into Doctor show (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO [non]. Not a log yet, rather advance notice of something I
meant to mention on WOR 2105 but missed:

``Special Broadcast:
México le canta a las Américas (Mexico Sings To the Americas)
Date/Time: Tuesday, September 28th, 0300-0400 UTC**
**Monday, September 27 2200-2300 Mexico City Time / CDT
WRMI 5800 kHz

In honor of the 200th anniversary of the end of the Mexican War of
Independence, a special hour of Mexican music hosted by Luís Alejandro
Vallebueno with guests Gabriela Ortiz and “Uncle Bill” Tilford will
air on WRMI with support from Grupo DX México. It will be in Spanish
and directed towards Central and South America, but the back end of
the transmission should be listenable in most of North America and
parts of Western Europe and Africa. The music will be a combination of
world-famous artists and others probably not known outside of Mexico.
There will also be some items regarding history, customs and shortwave
in Mexico including special appearances by a veteran of Radio México
Internacional (aka XERMX in its days on shortwave) and a long-time
member of Grupo DX México ----------------------
William "Bill" Tilford, Owner/Producer, Tilford Productions, LLC``

This is also the big night for other UB programs, on WBCQ 7489.9v:
2300-2330 Monday, first half of `Melting Pot`; 0000-0100 UT Tuesday,
`From the Isle of Music` = Cuba; interspersed with lots of gab,
interviews with the musicians (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 29, the KTUZ ``Shawnee`` full-power transmitter with
three different Spanish networx, each displaying a farflung virtual
channel -- Telemundo as 30, Univision as 36, and Estrella as 48, now
with three more sub-channels, shopping networx in English, first
noticed in step-tuning Sept 27 at 0036 UT: 30-2 QVC, 30-3 HSN, 30-4
QVC2. I see these are already listed at rabbitears.info. I check the
RF channel for each to be sure they are really out of RF-29. They have
probably moved from some other LP transmitter for OKC market (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 17895.069, Sept 27 at 1414, Qur`an from SRI/SBA,
S5-S8 and the SSOB beyond a few JBA carriers, no sign of any other
Sa`udis circa 17660, 17615 or 17570, supposedly on air now (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 245-MCW kHz, Sept 27 at 0613 UT, ND beacon FS, which is 400
watts from Sioux FallS SD. Not much else heard with high noise level.
I was tuned to 243-USB (and also forgot to mention with my MA 326 kHz
log yesterday that I was tuned to 325-USB) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
September 26 from 2000.7 on IRRS via AM Italia 918 kHz, S9+35 into
Noale SDR. Preceded by music, IRRS ID.

Also confirmed Sun Sept 26 after 2230 on WRMIs, 5950 S9+30 and 9955
S9+15 into east TN SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 27 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 VG direct; via
east TN SDR: 9455 only S9 way offbeam; 9395 VG S9+20, but with ``RTTY
warble`` QRM on plus side only, clear with LSB tuning. Much like the
QRM to IRRS 7290. Measured about 9396.1; by 0045, WRMI has faded way
down and the RTTY rules. Never noticed such QRM on 9395 direct to OK.

Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 27 at 0130 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed from just before 0300 UT Mon Sept 27 on Area 51 via
WBCQ, 6160 minus 53v Hz = 6159.947v, S9+5 into Maryland SDR with some
ACI from 6165 Cuba even in LSB tuning. Previous show ended in time for
full WBCQ singing ID at 0259.5, but after WOR billboard started,
interrupted for another quick WBCQ `legal` ID. At 0325 direct check
here, S8-S9 with ACI. Next, not until Wednesday:

1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary

generous
quarterly equinoxial check to Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK
73702.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Sept 27 at 1445, no signal from WBCQ-6 SuperStition of
World`s Last Chance; why is it still so unreliable, more breakdowns?
However, there is a JBA carrier on 9333, anomaly I have noticed
before, *only* when 9330 is off, making me wonder if it`s also from
BCQ, maybe an off-frequency exciter? After 1500 checking remote
further east, no sign of either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 27 at
0604-0610: 531, 585, 603, 621(2), 639(2), 657, 684, 693(2), 747(2),
774(2), 837, 846, 855(2), 936, 999(2), 1089, 1098, 1125(2), 1134(2),
1152, 1215, 1305(2), 1413(2), 1503(2) --- after Algeria, probably lots
of Canary/Spain, some UK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 3819-USB, Sept 17 at 0618, hamchew about drivers and
antennas, both stations, yes, on USB, not LSB, and not AM either. I
guess LSB on 40 & 80m is only a convention, easily refused (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

7) Netherlands - Rock Power: New addition to the list

Sept.

Unless there's a major change anywhere, the next update will be late
October. Best wishes, (Alan Roe, Teddington, UK, WOR iog)

** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer search, Sept 26 at 1356: JBA carriers on
12820, 13020, 13130, 13190. Also at 1421, 9155 at S5-S9, 9255 at S5-S8
in Chinese. All of these fit against Sound of Hope, in Aoki & EiBi
except unlisted 13190 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Sept 26 at 0603, R. Rebelde is S9+20/30 and splashing
out +/- 13 kHz almost to 5040, where RHC is already off tonight:
opposite situation to last night, returning the favor. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13700 and much weaker 13740 but still spurless, Sunday Sept
26 at 1347, RHC with COVID-19 medical info, instead of `En Contacto`
DX program. `En Cía del Doctor` had been scheduled at 1350-1400 after
E.C. at 1335-1350. I`m been remiss in monitoring for E.C., whether it
still exist without Arnie (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 5905, Sept 26 at 0608, JBA YL in German: that would be
Deutscher Wetterdienst, scheduled also on 6180 where there is an even
weaker JBA carrier, both 0600-0630 daily, 2x 10 kW at Pinneberg but
based in Hamburg. It`s now the #1 SW station in Germany! ahead of DW
on page 475, WRTH 2021. A ``National Radio`` station? Guess not. I
made the mistake of hunting for it first in that sexion among 15 pages
of detailed almost-all-FM listings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 11965, Sept 26 at 1417, rock with heavy beat, then talk sorta
Thai? S9-S7 with flutter. Aoki shows KSDA this semihour only daily in
Ash language. WRTH shows this under, where else, Thailand, page 498,
with Chin(Asho) to S Asia at 1400-1430 then on 11870 in B-20 season.
EiBi calls it C-A for MYA[nmar] ``Chin-Asho: Myanmar-Ayeyarwady,
Rakhine (30,000) [csh]`` not to be confused with CA which is Cantonese
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. 11725, Sept 26 at 0558, RNZI is S9+10/20,
the SSOB and almost the OSOB, some JBA carriers on 11815, 12000,
Brasil and Cuba. I expect to hear Bell Bird and QSY announcement to
7245, but 11725 keeps going with 0600 pips and RNZ news. Sked on
website still shows 0558/0559 changeover. After 0600, nothing on 7245;
nor 7255 Nigeria, nor 7265 France which is M-F only. So vacant! NZ
perhaps confused as DST has just started. Domestic program relays will
now be one real UT hour earlier, not necessarily SW block frequency
scheduling too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 326-MCW kHz, Sept 26 at 0623 UT, ND beacon MA, which is 400
watts from Midland, Texas. I remain wondering why I hear so few NDBs
from Baja Oclajoma as opposed to many more to the north as far as
Canada. My E-W longwire should be equally unfavorable to both, altho
Midland is WSW rather than S (Glenn Hauser, OC, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring: confirmed Sat Sept
25 at 1943 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, S9+10 into nearby KB0FX KiwiSDR,
about 15 minutes into so started circa 1928.

Also confirmed UT Sunday September 26 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S9+20/30
direct.

Also confirmed UT Sun Sept 26 at 0324 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM as above,
S9+10, about 7 minutes into so started circa 0317. Next:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 918-Italy
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Sept 26 at 0017 tune-in, WTWW-2 `Theater Organ
Under The Arch` sometimes starts this early, but this week it`s almost
over! Bob Heil, ``start winding up``, finishing at 0027.5 WTWW begging
for money from listeners despite being a commercially supported?
station and by Scriptures For America. So TOUTA must have started
circa 2357 Sept 25 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic [and non] JBA MW carrier search Sept 26
at 0615-0620, not in the order tuned: 531, 612, 684, 774(2), 837, 846,
855, 882(2), 909, 999, 1017, 1107, 1116, 1125(2), 1143, 1152, 1179,
1215(2), 1305(2), 1413, 1422 kHz. All presumably Eurafrican, holding
up later and later, except 846 Paficican, Kiritimati. Note that as
always, level of QRM/splash is a factor at the moment tuning across a
certain channel whether it will be detected (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 25 at 1504, NO signal from LRA36
into Brazilian SDRs this Saturday; I let one run anyway until 1600,
nothing but S4 of noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12000, Sept 25 at 0156, RHC English S9 at 2 x 6000 where it
is S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 7157, 7215, 7335, 9565, 11860, 11930, 6030, Sept 25 at 0614,
DentroCuban Jamming Command, where something is always wrong, still
grinding on its two favorite 40m hamband channels as for weeks now;
and R. Martí frequencies which are never on the air overnight; 7335 is
especially strong, but no other 7s. Just think what the cost of all
this electrical waste could provide the suffering Cuban people in
sufficient nutrition, medical care, etc.! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 5025, Sept 25 at 0619, R. Rebelde is off! No Perú
to be heard now, but less QRM to 5020 JBA carrier presumed Solomonic.
However, 5040 RHC is still on in Spanish, S9+20/30 splashing unimpeded
as far down as 5025. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. 9370, Sept 25 at 0602, JBA S2-S3 talk in unknown
language where normally I hear nothing. Aoki shows it`s R. Farda via
Lampertheim, GERMANY at 0300-0630. At 0630-1100 site switches to
Kuwait; 1100-1230 back to Lam. In fact nothing but USAGM outlets on
9370; later and earlier, RFA and VOA via Tajikistan, Kuwait,
Philippines. 31m is hopping from Europe at 0600+; much stronger 9420
Greece, 9670 Germany (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9+, Sept 25 at 0613, NO signal from VON in Hausa. I
tire of tracking it every night, but I would say at least half the
time it`s missing; you never know whether it will be (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday September 25 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+20 into Maryland
SDR.

** U S A. 9950 & 9960, Sept 25 at 0606, TOMBS modulation is JBA on
plus and minus 5 kHz spurs out of 9955 WRMI, unusually strong in the
nightmiddle S9+30. First time I have detected such, but like the 4975
spur out of 4980, reconfirmed at 0623. Perhaps they are far enough
`down` to be negligible if WRMI even be aware of them. When 9955 is so
strong, I suspect it`s really on a more northerly antenna than the
nominal 160 degrees attributed 24/7 to XMTR 3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5059 & 5111 approx., Sept 25 at 0620, traces of spur
carriers which work out as 2nd-orders out of 5085 WTWW-2. I.e. twice
the ~13 kHz offsets of the first-order ones circa 5072 & 5098. Just as
I tune in, music stops but dead carrier stays on. Amazingly, no one
else seems ever to report the painfully obvious closer ones, let alone
their doubles. Something`s always weird at WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 4840, Sept 25 at 0624, WWCR in dead air yet again at S9+60!
instead of dead Stair, who continues haunting us on 3215, 5890, as
well as dead Scott on 5935. A trifecta anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
