** ANDORRA [non]. 13730, Sept 3 at *2200, another monthly R. Andorra
revival special via AUSTRIA, opens with IS, ID, songs and lots of
French talk; only thing I recognize is `Rhapsody in Bleu` at 2230.
Continues until 2400*, VG S9+20/30 into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sun Sept 4 at 1443, RHC Spanish, S9+20 but distorted,

** EGYPT. 9440 minus 5/6 Hz, Sept 3 at 2223, R. Cairo at S8/9+15 into
Maryland SDR mostly humwhine, distorted English? modulation, useless.
Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 5960, UT Sun Sept 4 at 0059, rock at S9/+20
direct but noisy, presumed The Mighty KBC via GERMANY, back on S/D/M
season frequency ex-9925 always for J-season only. Expected but I
haven`t seen any advance publicity about the QSY (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 4 at 0630, VON is on at S7/S9.

7255-, Sept 4 at 1857, tune-in via Canary SDR just in time to hear VON
sign-off in English, drumming IS, vs open carrier from CRI, but
holding its own tho slightly off-key as result. Did not get frequency
measured exactly in time. 1900 CRI IS overrides, Turkish via Kunming
far beyond (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960, Sept 4 at 0048 tune-in direct, two AM pirates
are colliding producing slow SAH, then stronger one goes off, leaving
a USB one with rap at S9+10. At 0054, ``tick, tock, *uck off`` song
now with QRM from AM station; 0056 `Georgia` song; 0059 ``The greatest
hits of all time, the Ball Smacker, on 6960 shortwave``.

another AM CBer slightly off this frequency to het (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Seen first UT Sunday Sept 4 at 0100 on OETA World, 13-2,
`Gallery America` is produced monthly but then aired at least twice a
week until the next edition. About 19 minutes into, Shattuck Windmill
Museum shows `tune your radio to 90.3` to hear Windmill Willie. We
visited there years ago when there was no FM sign. Unique museum!

** OKLAHOMA. 88.7, Sept 4 at 1515 UT, surprised to hear classical
music here instead of KLVV gospel-huxtering from Ponca City, usual
fringer, rather KWTU Tulsa, only 5 kW ERP at 325 meters. APRS shows
heavy tropo from Tulsa area, so I check DTV at 1520: BAD signals on:

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Saturday Sept 3 tune-in at 1439 via
Argentine remote, no signal yet from LRA36. Chops on mid-song at
*1452.4, now with good sufficient signal. 1455 ``Esperanza Audaz``
canned sign-on with staff names, ``Nacional, la radio pública``. 1456
unknown song, 1457 vamp music; 1458 the quadrilingual advisory that
this is going to be in Spanish. They can`t agree what to call it, R.
Arcángel San Gabriel, or Radio San Gabriel. 1459 repeat the s/on with
staff names, then Esperanza/Antártida themesong. 1503 reading a
historical piece about Isla Decepción, mentioning Nathan Palmer, of
Peninsula fame. 1506 song.

1510 ID with ``su compañía``, María Eugenia that this is the 19th
program of the 2022 cycle. Greets a Chilean base, or the Esperanza
manager who has been visiting there. Currently minus 1 C after a low
of minus 8. 1515 phone numbers and all the other platforms for
contact. 1517 music; 1521 ``nos une`` ID. 1521 efemérides = this week
in history first about events in 1897, 1898, 1899, with music
background. 1530 song; 1532 more about Isla Decepción, with an
inactive volcano; Deception is just north of Palmer Peninsula.

1539 long phone interview with a guy, lo-fi distorted, hard to follow
until 1558 wrapup, ``encerramos este programa``, I think they
mentioned date but missed it whether Wed Aug 31 or today Sept 3. 1559
song. 1604 replays the ``s/on`` with staff list, ``la radio hech@ por
mujeres``, another songbit to 1605*. Now I see someone in Hamburg also
on the SDR. At the outset Gary Pence in Dallas, and someone in London,
the one in UK, not Kiritimati, were already on it a few minutes before
me.

Gary tells me: ``Well, at 1452z set off and running and coming in just
a little better than jba but not by much into KiWi SDR SE Half Moon
Bay, CA. I quit listening after 1523z as they were below the noise of
S4 more than they were above that. They barely hit one S unit above
noise floor a couple of times. I wonder if because of their
circumstances their antenna used is acting like a NVIS ant. because it
was quite loud at the LU4AA QTH vs anything stateside, much less
further away? If their intended audience is the home front, well, I
guess that's OK too. Gary``

It`s over 2 kilomiles from Esperanza to Bs As, so too far for NVIS. On
my NGS globe as it seems distancefromto.net lax Esperanza in database.
Even when I specify Antarctica, it leads to some places in southern
Argentina or CHile. Considering it`s under 1 kW, doing pretty well
that far, let alone California (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CONGO. 6115, Sat Sept 3 from circa 0530 until blocked by DRM noise
from FRANCE by *0559.8, NO signal at all, not even JBA carrier from R.
Congo into Canary SDR. Yet Ron Howard was getting it direct, far
beyond Canary on the California coast:

``Sept 3, checked for Radio Congo on 6115, starting at 0515+ UT; about
0525 had an extremely weak carrier; by 0545, the signal was
considerably stronger, but still no audio heard; finally about 0555
heard definite audio with announcers; mostly unusable; a few seconds
before 0600, the DRM started up and completely blocked 6115. So from
0525+ their signal very slowly improved. Assume they are still testing
the new transmitter and running much less than 50 KW at this time? No
QRM from Japan for this time period, but heard later with good signal.
Ron California``

6115 minus 0 to 3 Hz, Sept 3 at 1802. presumed R. Congo JBA into
Canary SDR. Manuel Méndez direct to Spain says it cut off abruptly
when news in French ended today at 1826* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Sept 3 at 0702, RHC English is still on here only. I`m
up way too late, so no idea how long it lasted; presumably had just
restarted English hour. Something`s always wrong at RHC. At least its
QRM further discourages listening to the TOMBS nonsense on 6160-
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GREECE [non]. 5129.974, UT Sat Sept 3 at 0230-0300, `Greek Music
Refuge` on WBCQ R. Angela, nice music with very brief announcements in
between, presumably Zach Liangas giving song titles; S9/+10 and not
too stormnoisy into Maryland SDR; followed by `FTIOM` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846, Sept 3 at 0707, JBA carrier but stronger than last
night, from R. Kiribati; and again no other 9/kHz carriers detected on
entire MW bandscan. Ron Howard replies:

``Hi Glenn, Radio Kiribati (presumed): For the first time, I checked
846. Thanks for the suggestion! Sept 3, definitely a challenge, but
actually had some audio from time to time (0620-0735 UT). Announcers
and some EZL songs that were rather non-descriptive; 0701-0708,
tentatively the news. The language sounded to me to be Kiribati /
Gilbertese (audio attached [to WOR iog]), but didn't catch a positive
ID. Perhaps someone else can positively confirm the language?
Appreciate any feedback. Ron, California`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Sept 3 at 1852 tune-in via Canary Islands SDR, ORTM is
already in English, S8/9+15 and USB tuning helps avoid lower ACI. I
had been listening to Nigeria, q.v. Manuel Méndez, Spain reconfirmed
the weekly English segment last Saturday. W & M alternate; I can
hardly understand her heavy accent, his a bit better. 1854 something
about a traditional medicine app? Ha. Then about deforestation around
Timbuktu. 1901 about an English-learning competition, a brief clip of
someone speaking it better. 1906 end of English, music and not French.
Marred by occasional uteblaaps and running water. WRTH shows English
at 1855-1910, but obviously variable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7255-, Sept 3 at 0658, VON not checked direct
until now when it is absent; might have been on earlier.

7255 minus 67 Hz = 7254.933, Sept 3 at 1802, S8/9+10 into Canary SDR
with news in English. Continuous annoying squeal diminished but not
eliminated in AM Narrow mode. Also lite 7255 CCI from algo. 1810 ID
and Africa news. My burrito with sour cream & chips with plenty salsa
lunch intervenes. 1844 still going, 1851 Africa sport segment as I
remember it`s time for the only English from 5995 Mali, q.v. Back here
at 1907, as expected VON is almost totally buried by China in Turkish
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. APRS tropo map shows Enid on the western edge of lite
enhancement, moreso across Arkansas, Sept 3 at 1520 UT, so I tune the
STB between channels 6 and 36 encountering BAD signals on open
channels: 10, 12, 20, 31, 36; and two decoding:

RF 21, virtual 40-1, KHBS-DT Fort Smith AR, which is really in OK, as
detailed in my last log June 12, q.v.

RF 28, virtual 44-1, only ID as ION, really KTPX Okmulgee - Tulsa mkt

Also finally a BAD on RF 17 in absence of local translator, probably
KTEN Ada, on anything but channel 10; should be recalled: KSEVENTEEN?
All soon fade down and out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2154 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday September 3 at 0400 on WBCQ Radio Angela, 5130 minus 25.5 Hz
= 5129.9745, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR with some storm crashes.

Also confirmed Sat Sept 3 at 1600 & 1930 on WRN North America webcast.
Don`t you believe at 1930 Sat on 15770 as still shown on WRMI skedgrid
but canceled months ago; tho I wish it were.

Also confirmed Sat Sept 3 from 1935 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentville MO,
VG steady S9+15/16 into nearby Warrenton MO KiwiSDR. Vern edits out my
opening alfabet to minimise the music, and must interrupt every
dekaminute for his own ID, per regs. When I have a clip including some
music he seems to allow it. Next:
