** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Wed June 16 at 1450 UT tune-in via
Pardinho, Brasil KiwiSDR, LRA36 in quite well, with song at S7.
Side-tuning to 15475.00-USB, we can confirm there is a carrier,
reduced, but in SAM mode not enough to register an exact frequency
offset. Usual canned ID which says ``Nacional, Antártida Argentina, en
todo el país, la radio pública``, song; 1456 contact info for QSL,
then a long announcement about something? 1503 `NAA` ID, this week in
world history, for dates June 14, 15, 17, 18. 1506 music. 1512 NAA ID,
music; two quick QRMs of rapid clix overriding. 1522 quick weather
info including today`s high of 2 grados (not bad for midwinter in
Anta, above freezing!); contact info including whatsapp number, phone.
1524 reminds us of Saturday repeat, now fading down into noise level;
1525 Antártida song until 1526*.

Earlier I asked if anyone had the lyrix to it. Manuel Méndez, Spain
replied with as much of it as he could copy. Some parts are missing as
with [...], notably the opening stanza. No doubt there will be many
more chances for native speakers to hear it, or examine old
recordings.

``Hi Glenn, this is what I could understand from the Base Esperanza
song:

"...Pero el amor a la patria es más fuerte en Base Esperanza,
es por eso este homenaje, para que llene de gloria,
a todos los corazones que llevan en la memoria.
Lágrimas y pañuelos de adiós en la dársena norte dejó
el Irízar*, ese día que partió.

Qué esté atenta y centinela, la base Belgrano 2,
y la base Primavera....

También quiero yo nombrar, porque las llevó el mar,
a Belgrano y Belgrano 3, y la ciencia que nos dió su obra,
el amor por nuestro pueblo, el respeto a la bandera,
por el Comando Antártico Vida, en el confín de la tierra.
Con la fuerza de los vientos, ya salió de Palomar,
con rumbo a Base Marambio, el Hércules, al sur de ....
Lágrimas y pañuelos de adios, en la dársena norte dejó
el Irízar, ese día que partió, que partió."

*El ARA Almirante Irízar (Q-5) (RHAI) es un rompehielos perteneciente
a la Armada Argentina.```

And here is a Google translation I, gh, have slightly improved:

"... But the love of the country is stronger in Base Esperanza,
that is why this tribute, so that it fills with glory,
all the hearts that they carry in their memory.
Tears and goodbye handkerchiefs in the north dock left by
the Irízar *, that day it left.

Be vigilant and on guard, the Belgrano 2 base,
and the Primavera base ....

I also want to name, because the sea took them, the bases
Belgrano and Belgrano 3, and the science that their work gave us,
love for our people, respect for the flag,
by the Antarctic Life Command, at the end of the earth.

With the force of the winds, it has already left Palomar,
Heading to Marambio Base, Hercules, south of ....

Tears and goodbye handkerchiefs in the north dock left by
the Irízar *, that day it left."

* The ARA Almirante Irízar (Q-5) (RHAI) is an icebreaker belonging to
the Argentine Navy.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

1:20 when I turned off. Had I awakened later I was set to check it
again, but after 6:00 it was back to normal. I fear it ran like that
most of the night. Obviously there is no one in downtown OKC
overnight, but I would hope some of you had remote control access to
take care of problems like that. Or a fail-safe to replace with local
music, or something. Regards, Glenn Hauser, Enid``

``Yes, I got us back when I came in a little after 5:00. Chris thinks
the tone controller has died so we will run tonight without our IDs
and he will come with his tester tomorrow. BF`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

thanks this week to Dan Gerrelfinger, Cincinnati OH, for a
donation ``as a thank you and to keep things going`` to
Glenn Hauser, Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA.

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

** U S A. 5800, June 15 at 0627, S9+10/20 open carrier, once again
surely from WRMI which is the only station on 5800 earlier; late on a
Tuesday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Sporadic E MUF mostly below 88 MHz on June 16 but some spots
higher; several bandchex here don`t get anything but Okies on openish
92.1, 92.9, etc. So I decide to settle for 10m ham beacons, most of
which have been heard before, unlike hundreds of other CW in the WJ5O
roster. I may not have copied full spiels beyond IDs.

UNIDENTIFIED. 25950, June 15 at 1954, open carrier with Es fading,
prompting me to post:

``[WOR] Broadcast aux on 25-26 MHz --- Now at sporadic E peak, keep an
ear out for broadcast auxiliaries in the 25-26 MHz band. Very little
activity lately and most of these now in EiBi may well be off for a
few years. Typically they are turned on only when needed, such as
``talkback`` during a remote event, so hosts may get non-delayed
program audio.

Now around 2000 UT June 15, when WWV is also in on 25000, I have an
open carrier on 25950, which once was used in Denver. Usually FM mode
but without mod it may seem like AM. EiBi:

25870 0000-2400 USA WFLA Tampa, FL
25910 0000-2400 USA KLDE El Dorado, TX

have not heard one for several years`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
