** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Feb 4 at 2002, LRA36 s/on again
after long music-only fill between broadcasts, managing to stay on air
since first heard via Argentine remote at 1515 as in my previous
report. I`m not paying attention to this replay but others monitor it
for hours more, with improving reception direct to Europe. Still going
at my final recheck 2123 music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13680, Feb 4 at 2150, RHC very strong but somewhat distorted
in Brazuguese, // much weaker 11760. Per EiBi at 2130-2200, 13680 is
supposed to be Arabic to Europe; Portuguese on 11880; and 11760 off
from 20 or 21 until 22. Somethings` multiply wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. Re my Feb 4 report about 846, Ron Howard replies: ``Hi
Glenn - R. Kiribati with carrier at 0735 and still there at 0910 UT``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NETHERLANDS. 6020, Feb 5 at 0738, JBA carrier, presumed R. Delta
International as reported active, also on 11730 per Manuel Méndez,
Spain but zero signal there for me (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955 USB, Feb 4 at 2152 and 2228 recheck, pirate
music, S4/S6 direct. Many reports here between 2043 and 2340:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,109300.0.html
as Radio Free, Whatever. Earlier than I usually check or expect to
hear any pirates below 7 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6959.895 AM, Feb 5 at 0341, Mexmx S7/S8 into Utah
SDR; checked after many reports in the WOR iog. And ID at 0424 as
``ésta es la Zanahoria en Escabeche`` which means ``spicy pickled
carrots`` as had been heard two+ years ago. Ron Howard and I heard it
Nov 25, 2020 on 6924.884 and I copied the CW and voice IDs. More new
reports:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,109318.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. No tokEnglish from REE on Saturday but I recheck frequency
usage direct Feb 4 at 2149 and find it the same as Friday. 12030 for
ME is still missing; 9690 NAm, 11940 SAm, and weakest S1/S5, 11685 for
Africa are on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2176 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
February 4 at 2029 about 3 minutes into so started circa 2026 on
WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, VG S9+20 groundwave into nearby
Warrenton SDR but inaudible direct: wintry lowsun is over.

Confirmed Saturday February 4 at 2230 on both WRMIs 5850 and 15770.
Until the 2229.5 ID, 15770 is closing RTI in Spanish, something else
on 5850; then as heard on two receivers direct, they join synchronized
for ID and WOR 2176; 15770 S8/S9, 5850 S7/S9 with more fading and
noise, despite huge direxional advantage thisaway vs 15770 off the
side. Hope 5850 be much better closer to FL. Despite scheduling, WOR
had been missing from 5850 at this time for a few weeks.

Also confirmed UT Sunday February 5 at 0040 the 0030 on WRMI 7780,
S7/S9+5 into Louisiana SDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday February 5 at 0422 about 9 minutes into so
started circa 0413 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+22 into nearby SDR.

Did anyone hear WORs 2176 & 2175 at 0800-0900 on Unique Radio,
Australia, 5035 USB? or its webcast? Next:

** VANUATU. 7890 & 11835, Feb 5 at 0739, no signals from R. Vanuatu

replies: ``Hi Glenn - R. Vanuatu off the air on all their known
frequencies (0800+ UT)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Feb 4 not tuned in until 1514 via
Argentine remote, S7/S9 rap in Spanish, 1516 more songs. Seems I did
not miss much as Dan Robinson says they cut on at *1511. Finally 1529
s/on, multi-lingual disclaimer, ``siempre mirando al sur, desde
Patagonia``; scripted piece about ``malvinazando`` which is the theme
of this transmission, somehow linking today in Antarctica with the war
40+ years ago over Falklands: are they implying that Esperanza will be
defended militarily should the Brits invade?!

BTW neither today nor recently have they played the ``Antártida``
themesong as part of the opening, that we enjoyed so much; why not?

1534 live opening, says lots of people in the studio, staff name
credits, hosted by Juan Benavente, and welcoming YL Carla Calzado.
This is the only Argentine station on SW, on either continent.
Greeting to Jujuy and Neuquén. Carla gives the weather: +7 C, wind
chill +3, SE at 27 kph, partly cloudy. Talking about flights expected.
(At this time for the record I check for any trace of a signal direct:
none!).

1537 announcer for `Panorama de Noticias`, Marcelo, has conducted more
than 35 interviews and plans to continue originating from here at 6 am
M-F until 10th of Feb, and then move to Marambio base. Connexion to Bs
As is via T-line; does that mean undersea cable? No. 1545 Carla with
contact info. 1547 again about Malvinazar. 1551 IDs, ``comunicad``.
1552 ``Uniendo Voces`` program title/theme; contact info again;
interview an Alejandro; contact info again; saludos; same wx info
again. Trying to make phone contact with Claudio, failing time and
again.

1616 says all their communication is via a satellite. 1617 about ham
contacts yesterday on 20m and 10m with USA, Europe as well as
Argentina. 1618 whatsapp number again by Carla, rock music. 1622 RAE
AAM multi-lingual ID. 1624 contact info yet again by Carla for Uniendo
Voces. Interview with Daniel Marchi, veteran of Malvinas, finally
connecting 1630 after fourth? try, ``hola, hola, hola``, ``cambio?``.
Again about Malvinazar. Weather again. Long discussion as my ears are
glazing over by now. 1659 seems to finish, rock music; 1700 RNASG and
RAE IDs, Carla with contact info, saludos.

1717 music only whenever checked; some of the rock seems in English. I
daresay much music has nothing to do with Antarctica or even
Argentina; why bother? Also music only at 1800, 1857 past 1944 tho the
repeat was supposed to start at 1900? No, it`s 2000, Horacio Nigro has
just found out. Also this additional info via him earlier at 0159 UT
Feb 4 to WOR iog:

``[WOR] More about LRA36 (relaying news as soon as they evolve from
source) --- New broadcast of the special summer program broadcast
season “Uniendo Voces” on LRA 36 “Radio Nacional Arcángel San Gabriel”
– Radio Argentina al Exterior (RAE).

SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4 – 12:00 HS LOCAL ARGENTINA (15:00 UTC) with
repetition at 16:00 local time (19:00 UTC). (NOTE: This would possibly
be the last broadcast before the 1 kW arrives at the Base). The
Antarctic radio station at Base Esperanza will broadcast a new program
from RAE's special summer cycle “Uniendo Voces”.

During the program, the following people will be interviewed: Dr.
Claudio Parica, a prestigious geologist with a great Antarctic career;
Malvinas (a.k.a Falklands --HAN) and Antarctic war veteran Daniel
Marchi, as well as music from our country, cultural information about
Argentine Antarctic bases, and activities carried out during the 2023
Summer Antarctic Campaign.

Staff:
LRA 36 Director: Lieutenant Colonel Gustavo Cordero Scandolo
Production: Juan C. Benavente, Alejandro Álvarez, Alejandro Petrecca,
Carla Calzado.
Technical operation: Nicole Valdebenito.
General Coordination: Adrián Korol – RAE – Radio Argentina Abroad
Production: Joint Antarctic Command, Argentine National Radio and the
“Uniendo Voces” project of the National University of Quilmes, Buenos

** KIRITIMATI. 846, Feb 4 at 0715 UT, JJBBA carrier here but no other
9/kHz splits, presumed R. Kiribati (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 6125, Feb 4 at 0451, VOT S9+8/18 into Maryland SDR with
multi-lingual ID filler reel, 0453 s/off still claiming to be the 1330
broadcast on 12035 -- NOT!, 0454 IS briefly and off. I could avoid the
timeclash with Spain at 2300 by hearing VOT at 0400 on 6125, final
repeat of previous day, but there are more shows elsewhere with higher
priority (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5130, UT Sat Feb 4 at 0056, WBCQ Radio Angela with IS & ID
loop, prior to early opening to carry `AAAWWW`; into Maryland SDR
reading +15 Hz = 5130.015. The others: 7490 -41 Hz = 7489.959; 6160
-64 Hz = 6159.936. 3265+ no signal. Soon WTO theme is playing, but
then obviously a pre-Xmas show replay, date announced as Dec 23. Never
mind.

Twit earlier on Friday had claimed: ``Allan Weiner @AllanWBCQ · Feb 3
Friday, very important show on Angela & Allan Worldwide about the
future of our world.``

But later circa 0230 UT: ``Allan Weiner @AllanWBCQ · 15h Sorry, no
live show tonight. -22 below 0. 40 mph winds. Power bumps dumping the
transmitters and internet. Where the heck is all that global warming
they keep talking about? Stay warm.``

It seems WBCQ`s nickname as ``The Planet`` is a bit exaggerated. To
state the obvious?: Global warming takes into account average temps
over the whole planet, including the oceans, bad news for many species
accustomed to cooler water; and icecaps, glaciers, very obviously
shrinking. That`s what Global means. Certainly there will still be
cold spells here and there, duh (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9975, UT Sat Feb 4 at 0304 and later, no signal from KVOH.
Nor can I get their webcast to play, which is supposedly running all
the time. Since cutbax a few months ago, SW has been sked 0100-0600 UT
Sat/Sun/Mon only and still such at:
https://www.voiceofhope.com/schedule/kvoh_program_grid.pdf
but dated as of 2 Dec 2022.

It was also reported missing the weekend of Jan 21, by Kenneth Vito
Zichi, Michigan: ``***9975 KVOH not noted at all this weekend. Are
they well and truly off the air? ****`` My inquiries to Ray Robinson
have not been answered. Of course much of California has been subject
to Acts Of God, wildfires, flooding, mudslides, etc., so how is it
around Chatsworth Peak or KVOH studios? Then I ask Jeff White: ``I
believe they are waiting for some parts. Hello from Tunis``.

HFCC website says: ``The A23 Global Coordination Conference will be
held from 5 to 9 February 2023 in Tunisia`` --- that`s odd as there
has been no SWBC from Tunisia for years. Does anyone remember when
they quit? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Feb 4 at 0708, JBA carrier here but none on 7890 or
11835, so suspect R. Vanuatu has stayed on 7260 instead of 3945 plus
harmonix after 0659 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
