** ANTARCTICA [and non]. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Aug 27 at 1435 tune-in
via LU4AA remote, nothing yet, but 1441 recheck, LRA36 is already
underway with tangos; 1443 ``más austral``, ``Radio Nacional, nos
une`` canned ID, more music. 1459 sign-on with staff list; talking
about Patagonia. 1501 another sign-on, the multilingual one; 1503 the
Antártida song.

1505 the LU4AA remote craps out, can`t access it anymore, so try all
the others in Argentina, Uruguay, Brasil. No LUs as good as 4AA was.
Best left is PT2HFC, Brasília #1 which employs Arnie`s favorite
antenna, T2FD: Tilted Terminated Folded Dipole:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T2FD_antenna

1510 music, 1512 ID, music, live greetings by YL to the 18th program
of 2022. 1514 mentions ``día de la radiodifusión``, today = 102nd
anniversary of broadcasting in [my joke] Alta Antártida = Argentina,
as previously publicized to be celebrated all weekend by 49 or 50
stations nationwide. 1521 fade-out, or off?

1535 resuming with sign-on ``A partir de...``, brief extraneous talk
like 2-way QRM? Back to YLs, mentioning something happening in 1952y,
history stuff. 1537 contact info platforms, 1538 music. 1541 refers to
27 de agosto de 1920; 1546 tango. 1549 about ``Horacio Guarany``
[pseudo.], Argentine singer *1925-2017*
https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horacio_Guarany

YLs chatting, becoming JBA, 1552 joined by OM voice. 1603 best
reception now via Pardinho, Brasil with a G5RV antenna.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G5RV_antenna

At 1609 I notice that Bruce Churchill, Carlsbad CA, is also on PT2HFC
SDR. Off by 1611, just as well as since 1606, I`m mainly listening to
KUCO for `The Score`, this week filmusic from summer blockbusters.
Missed first airing Friday at 19-20 UT while out & about. BTW, at 1650
briefly some tango-like tune there.

Bruce Churchill later reports: ``So, LRA-36 15475.98 on this morning
at 1540 tune with nice S3 signal from PT2HFC SDR in Brasilia – woman
commentator, ID’s by man (probably recorded), usual good Argentinian
music. ID by man at 1616 and then nominally off (although a strange
music segment for about 5 sec or so was heard at 1617) and then xmtr
shutdown. Signal faded to S2 after about 1550-1555. Checked my
favorite Iceland site at Bjangtangar, but nothing heard there.
Normally LRA-36 needs to be on later for Iceland to get a decent
signal. Bruce`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Aug 27 at 0621, only RHC English still on, S9+20
undermodulated. 5040 still on with Spanish, music. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7254.9+, Aug 27 at 0616, VON is on again, S9/+10
direct, undermodulated Hausa. At 1655 into Canary SDR, 7255- is on but
VP S5 vs S7 storm crashes, 1700 ID and news, SAM frequency as
7254.9335v. 1804 recheck, now much better at S9/+10, news mostly
readable. 1810 program ID as ``Africa Hour`` so continental content.
1825 about desertification. 1832 plugs various apps for reaching VON.
1848 about economy, but modulation stops, then fades back up, studio
error? Much depends on how heavy the accent of various voices: the
anchorette is bestte, sorta mid-Atlantic. I guess Nigerians can cope
with English variously accented depending on the original native
language.

Nigeria is now the only African country even attempting an external SW
service in English, so VON should be valued, treasured - disregarding
egregious Egypt. And also dissing gospel huxters originating or
relaying. Plus disregarding various `target` broadcasts into Africa.

Signal into Canary should be much better if it`s really 250 kW aimed
moreorless thataway. At 1852, UTwente gets nothing usable, just DRM?
noise but does lock onto 7254.934. No DRM EiBi listed closer than 7245
RRI Saftica at 18-19.

Back to Canary, hit *1857 by on-frequency 7255.0 big carrier as she is
upwrapping Africa Hour. 1858 drum & flute IS still audible under it.
1900 CRI theme for Turkish hour from far Kunming, now with horrible
low het, both unusable as VON presumably goes into Fulfulde as
scheduled 1900-2000 on 11770 like preceding English was supposed? to
be as in Aoki. At UTwente, Turkish clear with no QRM. BTW, current
EiBi lists nothing for VON (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Nondirexional beacon DX finally picks up, still some storm
crashes audible, but not too close or strong; and local line? noise
level has diminished slightly which had been blocking all weak signals
in the 370-420 kHz range. Aug 27 at 0627-0633 UT bedtime bandscan
finds these:

341 MCW, DNI under stronger than usual local EI EnId, but no sign of
the other co-channel, OIN OberlIN KS. DNI Sherman/DeNIson TX, almost
OK, is rarely audible, 25 watts. BTW, Woodring AP, home of EI, has got
megabux for improvements in runway, hangar, as the great majority of
traffic there is axually related to Vance AFB, for which Woodring is
backup, overflow.

353 MCW, LI, LIttle Rock AR, 400 watts
356 MCW, ODX, OrD NE, 25 watts
359 MCW, SDR, SnyDeR TX, 25 watts
379 MCW, RUE, RUsselvillE AR, 25 watts
395 MCW, CA, Newton/Harvs KS, 25 watts
Searching on the strange name Harvs leads to various businesses
elsewhere belonging to people nicknamed for Harvey, not this. CA = for
CAnsas? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re: 1010 kHz, Aug 26 at 0615 UT, bigsig where normally
nothing is very dominant at night, ads citing area code 904, ID sounds
like ``KNSL`` and FM 92.5, then sports talk. Per new NRC AM Log, this
has to be WJXL, Jaxonvil Beach FL, U4 50/30 kW.``

``I think the "KNSL" was their slogan "10-10 XL." These guys appear to
have had serious problems with their night DA for at least 2 years.
They've been a nightly catch on my last 2 or 3 annual sessions at the
Nevada-Utah border, and they were even noted with a strong signal here
in San Diego last October. They run lots of local ads so they're
usually pretty easy to spot. 73 Tim Hall, Chula Vista CA``

West instead of, or in addition to east, surely gains WJXL a lot more
landmass coverage! But bad news for legal 1010s in LA, TX, etc. Also,
on July 1, Terry Krueger in the FL Panhandle complained ``always WJXL
sports pest`` while he was trying to DX other 1010 stations (Glenn

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Aug 26 at 1500-1538, no signal from
LRA36 into Argentine or Uruguayan SDRs; in case it would try on Friday
having failed on Wednesday. But it could be later circa 1800 instead.
No, nothing at 1829 check Friday Aug 26.

Also, LRA36 is specifically mentioned as among 50 stations
participating in a 102nd anniversary of R. Nacional event all weekend
from 23 UT Friday Aug 26 until 0259 UT Monday Aug 29, but doubt the SW
will be continuous for 52 hours, if at all:
https://www.red43.com.ar/nota/2022-8-24-9-6-54-radio-nacional-cumple-102-anos-y-lo-celebra-con-una-transmision-historica

A different version via Arnaldo Slaen, condiglist, says each of 49
stations gets 1 hour each, instead of 50 - not mentioning LRA36, so
deliberately excluding it? But what about the other 3 hours?:

``Desde las 20 de este viernes comienza una maratón de 52 horas
ininterrumpidas de programación de Radio Nacional, donde las 49
emisoras tendrán su espacio, en el marco de las 102 años de la
radiofonía argentina. Cada radio tendrá un programa de una hora. Así
lo informó Juan Martín Ramos Padilla, gerente de Emisoras de Radio
Nacional. La maratón comenzará el viernes 26 a las 20 y se extenderá
de forma ininterrumpida durante todo el fin de semana`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6140, Aug 26 at 0643, RHC English is JBA S2/S3 on frequency
clear to accept leapfrog mixing product of 6060 S4/S7 over 6100
S9+10/20 another 40 kHz beyond. Other fundamentals, 6000 & 6165, are
off by now. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Aug 26 at 0627, VON is gone again. Nor any signal
into Canary SDR at 1709; nor 11770- with something in Chinese. With my
yesterday`s report I meant to add: had not axually been able to listen
to VON in English for longtime: sounds well-produced so it`s a shame
they make it so hard to hear (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Aug 26 at 2200, token English from REE; after
news, 2205 feature by Amy Egan interviewing someone about a museum
collexion of love and personal letters by great artists, staring with
Matisse. VG into Maryland SDR and at 2224 checking same Kiwi on other
frequencies: 15520 & 11940 almost as good; 11670 only S8 still with
squeal. Hasta el lunes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 26 at 2201, VOT with VG modulation and S9+45/50
signal into UTwente. 2215.5 from `Review of the Tuerkiyeish Press` to
`Weekly Analysis` written by some professor whose name we can`t
possibly copy, about changes in Erdogan`s policy toward Syria. 2227.5
the multi-lingual ID reel with music background, as most of them have
been forced to utter ``Türkiye``, whatever the language.

Aside from that, it would be an interesting exercise for the
experienced DXer to try to identify each, if not live, then from a
`perfect` recording as could have been captured today. We can ID lots
of languages without speaking or understanding many of them, by their
`sound` and/or key words in IDs for ``this is``, not always literally
translated, e.g. Russian, govorit = speaks. Toughest for us would be
distinguishing among several Turkic languages on TRT, and Slavix.

2233, `Feeling Supreme` theme; BTW, I heard similar music on some US
TV commercial, and wonder what it is, from some produxion-music album?
Subtitle is hard to understand by the accented announcer, but I think
he says ``Healthy Life`` --- this time, natural remedies for the
``disease`` of varicose veins, starting with: #1, apple cider vinegar
[mispronounced ``sih-der``, short I]; #2, sage; #3, hard chestnut?
something. Not at all sure how valid and trustworthy TRT`s health
advice be, but maybe should pay more attention to this topic.

Then mostly music as I switch to direct reception, which is much
inferior, S9 with deep fades to S6. At least there is no RTTY USB.
After s/off, 2255 starts IS; 2256 restarts IS and gets the German ID
out twice, but chopped off the air at 2257.5* as the third one starts
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE [non]. (7730), UR1 via WRMI, Aug 26 after 0500, `Ukraine:
Security Issue` copied later from web archive, well-spoken YL,

http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_25_08_22.mp3
including, for Aug 25: entering 7th month of invasion. Railway station
shelled, 25 killed, and more. On Independence Day, 58 settlements
shelled, 189 air raid sirens sounded nationwide during 14 hours, most
yet. Electricity and water out in Zap. region. Cages for U POW trials
by R installed, start date unknown, Sept 15? Occupiers conducting
census in Mariupol, pseudo-referendum, but U blew up HQ of R
occupiers. U armed forces liberated area size of Denmark, 45,000 sq
km. Pres. Biden announced nearly 3 gigadollars in new military aid.
Tennis match benefit for U raised more than megadollar in NY; more
planned at US Open from Aug 29 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

SWBCs, UT Friday August 26 at 0130 on WRMIs: to Maryland SDR, 7730
S9+10/15; 5850 S7/S9, the lower/latter much better thisaway direct.

Also confirmed UT Friday August 26 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, VP/JBA
direct.

Also confirmed Friday August 26 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, JBA direct, can
barely recognize WOR theme; unusually weak, no jamming. At least it`s
on the air unlike 24 hours ago.

Also confirmed Friday August 26 from 1815.2 on IRRS via AM Italia,
1323 kHz, Villa Estense, S9/+15 atop some CCI music and German from
Romania`s minority service. Until 1844 music and IRRS ID again. Also
on IRRS via Bulgaria 7290 at S9 into UTwente.

Also monitoring just before: 1323 with bit of classical music at 1754,
and never anything on 918 or 207 kHz; 1756 to pop song in English.
1800 IRRS SW sign-on, Feature Story News on 1323. As ever, 7290 does
not cut on until 1800:50 or so, JIP FSN. This was once explained to me
as caused by unavailability or program feed routing from studio to
site a minute earlier than that. 1805 ID and UN news. 1809 music fill.
1811 ``Country Jamboree``; 1814 the DJ says there is half an hour to
go, o yeah? And then ``welcome to the show``, or a different one?
Chopped off at 1815 for IRRS ID and into WOR. 1844 bit of music, IRRS
ID, novelty songs; 1846 DJ as ``Sounds of ---`` something.

Barely missed checking the repeat at 2030 Fri Aug 26 on 1323 only, out
shopping with too-slow checkout line; but probably. Anyone hear it?
Checking 1323 anyway at 2115, weaker music, maybe else. Next:

** U S A. (7489.9v), Aug 27 at 0000, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW`, first
interjexion is ``what?!``. Then ``the not-so-jolly roger``, plugging
as the ``last bastion of free speech``; and finally, ``carbon`` near
end of William Tell Overture. Goes right into playing some song about
the good old AM radio, analog days. Sounds like a non-rerun, live from
Florida. Meanwhile, I check Maryland SDR: also // but not synch on
6160-, 5130-, but nothing on 3265+.

By 0009 already, he can`t help but blame Democrats for BCQ needing
money; and FBI for screwing up elexion, huh??? Suspend. And he seems
to be justifying storming of the Capitol. ``Aren`t you glad we haven`t
been on the air for a while, folx?`` He doesn`t like any government
involvement in broadcasting, such as NPR, VOA. Near end someone on
email complains about all the politicking, sorry, he says. Free Radio
Weekly just in but only mentions names of a few stations reported
before prayer and finishing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1010 kHz, Aug 26 at 0615 UT, bigsig where normally nothing
is very dominant at night, ads citing area code 904, ID sounds like
``KNSL`` and FM 92.5, then sports talk. Per new NRC AM Log, this has
to be WJXL, Jaxonvil Beach FL, U4 50/30 kW.

Night and day patterns are very similar from 6-tower array, almost
everything eastward into ocean, hardly anything westward from site W
of Jax closer to Macclenny per radio-locator also with maps.

R-L ``coverage`` maps seem to show coastal/seawater gain to the east,
Day:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=WJXL&service=AM&h=D
Night:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=WJXL&service=AM&h=N

But FCC maps show true nominal radiation patterns are really extremely
direxional eastward.
Day pattern:

https://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/MB/Databases/AM_DA_patterns/24553dcdb4194a28ac60c1b6063ebeb7-100905.pdf
night pattern:

https://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/MB/Databases/AM_DA_patterns/24553dcdb4194a28ac60c1b6063ebeb7-100906.pdf

Anyway, bigsig a kilomile westward has got to be on 30 or even 50 kW
non-direxional. Do they have an STA? Or could it be so out of whack
that it`s direxional westward oppositely?

A reply on the IRCA iog Aug 26: ``Glenn, WJXL has been a big signal in
Central Texas for a while now, I hear them nightly, thanks. James
Niven, Austin, Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA. 9450, Aug 25 at 0642, S4/S6 too close to 9455 WRMI, ME
music, not Qur`an, on another new frequency from Béchar site; and not
// FRANCE relay still extant on 9620. Ivo Ivanov says 9450 switched to
17600 at 0800/0802 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2153)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Aug 25 at 0632, no signal from VON. On Aug 24 Joe
Ihnat and Jorge Freitas were reporting this on air unusually in local
evening, 1738-1808* instead of 11770-.

7254.935, today Aug 25 am hearing VON on 7255 minus 66/67 Hz into
Canary SDR, 1800 news about Nigeria in English, still past 1815. S7/S9
and noisy, nearest storms in Morocco, also Mauritania, Mali. No QRM.
Well before sundown at receiver, but after SS in Nigeria. Nowhere near
the blasting signal we would get at 0600 when active.
The YL newscaster at first was much easier to understand than the
later speakers. I kept listening but could not really follow the
content. S/N did not improve as the hour went on. At 1830 it was the
Dir-Gen of NBC? plugging the various platforms of VON but unsure if he
included SW. After 1830 there was some 2adjacent QRM from 7265 which
would be CRI Urumqi in Bulgarian, or music. No problem from RRI DRM on
7240-7250. VON chopped off the air abruptly at 1846*. Recheck at 1915
now 7255 bears S9+15/25 of CRI Tuerkiyish from Kunming (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2153)

** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 24 until 2334.5*, VOT extraneous German from 2300
as in last report, finally chopped off air, shortly after I finished
that report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2153)

** U S A. 920, Aug 25 at 0132-0140 UT, checking for KLMR, Lamar CO,
which should be audible on SSS just before 0145 official sunset in
August when it would switch from 5 kW ND, to 0.5 kW direxional: no
sign of it on DX-398 rotatable. KYFR IA dominates with hymns, but when
nulled only hear sportstalk from KARN AR, and briefly something in
Spanish. In the new NRC AM Log, the only USA SS on 920 are WUBA in
Quántico VA, unlikely; and KYST Texas City [Houston] TX, likely at U4
5/1 kW. So KLMR appears to be really off the air due to water damage
July 23 as notified to FCC. See my previous report (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
