hourtop. S9/+10 into Maryland SDR. 0102 British-accented fast-talking
DJ over music, almost incomprehensible, so this is not Texas Radio
Shortwave which had been widely publicized, 10 kW on direxional beam
to E North America. Just as well since this is also the hour I want to
hear `Encore` classical music on WRMI 5850.

The TRSW repeat for W North America at 0300 succeeds, with TRSW ID by
YL at 0329, S9+10 into Maryland SDR. Weaker and fadey in direct
reception. Afterwards, Terry Colgan explains, ``Channel 292 failed to
transmit the program at 0100 UTC and, unbeknownst to me, had removed
the show from the online schedule. The 0300 UTC show aired as

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2259 monitoring: Not confirmed

More transmitter problems? 2329 followed immediately by voice of
George McClintock himself that Pastor Pete Peters is heard daily at
3-5 pm Central on 9475. Another report:

** U S A. 9330, Sept 8 at 0056, WLCR via WBCQ getting heavy QRM, seems
like spurious modulation from some other talking source, extremely
distorted, but nothing nearby to match it. Checked after this report
an hour earlier at 2356 Sept 7: ``Oh my, 9330 sounding like Saudi
11935 --- ``Horrible distortion on top of weak talk. I'm assuming this
is coming from the transmitter and not someone on top of WBCQ.
Another, "there's always something wrong at,...."? 73, Walt``
Salmaniw, BC. -- meanwhile, replies:

Don Moman, Alberta: ``9330 is "fine" here IF you are in USB. There is
a strong wandering blob on the LSB currently (0036 utc) and very
strong. It's not obvious if another tx or ??``

``I looked at Don's KiwiSDR and definitely you guys are hearing
something else badly distorted that is not received here in Montreal
and WBCQ sounds very clean. Interesting, sounds like something out
west is very distorted. I've checked again at 0055 UT using my Yeasu
FTdx10 and expanded the waterfall and it looks very clean here USB and
LSB. Gilles Letourneau, OfficialSWLchannel, Montreal, Quebec``

Don Moman, VE6JY: ``just looked over at 9330 at 0109 and the blob is
gone`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Sept 8 at 0651, this WRMI is off, while 9395 & 9455
are S9+20. 9955 has usually been running all night except UT Mondays
but this is Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15230, Sept 8 at 0636, JBA carrier. First guess is RHC

** ALGERIA. 17600, Sept 7 at 1520, Ifrikya FM with guitar music, S5/S7
better than usual. I can also usually detect a JBA carrier around 0630
even if not much else propagating above 15 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. Re 332 kHz MCW ND beacons. The RNA list omits QT,
Thunder Bay, so apparently gone forever. Also shows only 25 watts for
IC Wichita, logged as recently at 08-26; not 400 W as in dxinfocentre.

``Glenn, QT-332 was decommissioned on July 11, 2024 as part of Phase
12 of NAV Canada’s Modernization Program. Steve Howe, Saint Albans,
VT`` -- that was my most reliable Canadian beacon after WG Winnipeg
closed 248 kHz earlier. After that, YXL Sioux Lookout ON was regular
on 346, but no sign of that yet either. It is still being reported on
RNA list as of 2024-09-05 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 7 at 0559, S9+35/40 open carrier, obviously RHC
not turned off yet. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, UT Sat Sept 7 at 0145, pirate song at S9. I
bet it`s Ballsmacker Radio on very regular Friday-night sked. Yes: by

shows 0 watts and last logged 2024-04-27 - but I was hearing it until
a few days ago! Almost zero watts I could believe. In good old days
others on 341 I got, even when EI was on, mixing: DNI Denison TX, 25
W, last logged 2024-03-10; and OIN, Oberlin KS, 25 W, last logged
2023-06-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

S4/S5 direct, no Yemen programming audible under. Also at 1541 into
UTwente when measured, S9+10/15. Had trouble synch-locking onto this
exact frequency. Wolfgang Bueschel thinx it`s Iranian jamming from
Sirjan site:

``SAUDI ARABIA / IRAN  Radio war on 11935 kHz shortwave channel,

** U S A. (12160), Sat Sept 7, `The Talking Machine Show` is the only
WWCR program we always listen to, Sats 1700-1730, via WWCR-2 webcast.
It`s really mostly music, not talk! At 1720, Phil says the piece
playing was recorded 102 years ago in 1912. Therefore, this program
itself is a dekayear old. If any show can be ``evergreen``, this is
it. But we wonder if any ``new`` ones are being produced (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
