** BRAZIL. 9664.794, Nov 8 at 0710, RVM with music on variable
frequency. Had been no signal previous night or two (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Nov 8 at 0721, S8/S9 of dead air. Must be RHC English
not turned off yet. No other RHCs still on air. Lots of stuff listed
on 6165, but nothing else at this hour. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 8 at 2000, RHC opening English hour, but VP
unusable. Something`s always wrong at RHC. The Sunday Esperanto
semihour should have been at 2330 or 2230, but Jean-Michel Aubier,
France, heard if Nov 7 at 2146 on 15140 and 13680, but both cut off a
minute or two later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, Nov 8 at 2229, S7/S9 of dead air direct except for
whine, no doubt R. Cairo fruitless on air again. Something`s always
egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Nov 8 after 0700, still no signal this month from R.
Mali; nor at 1710 into Canary SDR nor on 9635. Hope not gone for good.
The ChiCom should have been maintaining this along with their Bamako
relay: is that still 100% operational? Of course, coups and
counter-coups, unstable politix. Military have delayed until March
2024, return to civilian rule

https://www.france24.com/en/africa/20220606-mali-junta-announces-two-year-delay-until-democratic-rule
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 13630, Nov 8 at 2158, song at S5/S8 continues thru hourtop,
so not CRI? Yes it is, 2201 ID as ``Fréquence Afrique de RCI``, in a
2130-2230 French relay via Bamako (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.93, Nov 8 circa 0705 still no signal from VON direct
when the frequency is free; at 1803 into Canary SDR, 7255 totally
dominated by CRI Russian via East Turkistan. Of course, evening
channel for VON was originally 11770v or 9690v, but for longtime had
been unwilling or unable to go there, rather 7255v. So now I check
Canary on those alternatives: nothing but heavy ACI to 9690; 11770
clear (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME. 15460.075, Nov 7 at 1616, Afro lang S7/S9, off-frequency
and just barely modulated, VOA Kinyarwanda, 100 kW at 100 degrees. Am
wondering if this site ever manage to maintain frequency accuracy.
There are 5 x 100 kW SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K [non]. 21630, Nov 7 at 1626, BBCWS in English, S3/S6, the OSOB
and SSOB, 125 kW at 114 degrees from ASCENSION, this hour only. BBC
also here earlier in different languages, different sites (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28216 CW, Nov 8 at 1950, 4 dashes and DE K3FX/B ...,
``28.216 K3FX C NEPTUNE CITY, NEW JERSEY # 5W, 1/2 VERTICAL`` per WI5V
list; among several beacons now on band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday November 8 at 0155 the 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9/+10 direct.
Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed by Cuba]

Thanks this week for a generous check from Mike Cooper, Georgia,
``in appreciation of your continued activities``, to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702.

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

** U S A. 9329.946V to .959, WBCQ-6/WLCR is finally back on air,
S9+10/20 in English; had been missing for more than a week, and now is
off-frequency minus instead of plus. Varying audibly as I try to
measure it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Nov 8 at 2153, JBA signal here surely not WRMI, off
again, rather RFA Saipan/CNR1 jammer; while 9395 is S9+30; 9955 also
off but back by 2205. WRMI also missing 9455 several hours earlier.
Beware, another Hurrican, Nicole is heading near Okeechobee (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Nov 8 at 0325, no signal from WTWW-1. Not that I miss
PPPP, but come to think of it, random tuning has not encountered this
for some weeks in prime evening time when ought to be on if ever. Even
less so 9475 in daytime, not even Sunday mornings. Those should carry
programming from WTWW owner, Scriptures for America. Yet WTWW-2 with
Ted`s rock music or ham shows on 5085 continues regular at this check
et al., from 0200? Earlier on weekends; closing time varies widely.
Also sporadically active the so-called Ukraine service, Voice of
Freedom on 9940. Another check at 1948: NO WTWWs (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, Nov 8 at 0718, JBA carrier and a slightly stronger
JBA carrier on 11835, 2 and 3 x 3945 from R Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 8 at
0735: 621-Canary, 711-Morocco; and 846-TP Kiritimati. BTW, 936 used to
be prominent 200 kW from Morocco, but no sign of it for a year or more
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5960, Nov 8 at 2150, S5/S8 of music, maybe Turkish? Per
EiBi B22 and Aoki, nothing scheduled here at this hour (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 2325 UT November 8

** CUBA [and non]. 880, Nov 7 at 0350, Spanish music atop KRVN making
a SAH of 84/minute = 1.4 Hz, presumed R. Progreso, Pinar del Rio, but
no SW 4765 to //. During EST season, nominal 4765 hours are 0130-0500
only UT. Does not fit exactly mwoffsets which implies these two 3.9 Hz
apart as measured on widely divergent dates 2 or 3 years ago. If KJOZ
TX were the Spanish, it and KRVN were only 0.7 Hz apart as of
2018/2019 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025 & 4765, Nov 7 at 0321, both Rebelde and Progreso are
off; 5040 RHC Spanish S9/+10. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, UT Mon Nov 7 at 0344, RHC is S9+25/35, but just barely
modulated with hum, not positive // 6165 as it`s only S7 and also
JBM/hum, during `Mailbag` with ``Ed Newman`` -- him being soft-spoken
would otherwise be pleasant, but not to cope with JBM! If RHC still
have two separate English hours alternating, this confirm that now
during evenings EST, Mbg appears within odd-numbered UT hours, as
expected in updated DX/SWL/Media Programs, rather than even-UT hours
during EDT. As for the isolated 1-hour Englishes at 20-21 and
peripatetic 22-23 or 23-24, never quite sure which be which.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 7 at 2001, RHC English is still here, VP and
distorted into Maryland SDR, presumably 20-21 ex 19-20 UT. Have not
tracked RHC much more yet; may be further changes following week
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 6090-6120, Nov 7 at 0341, NHK Japanese relay via Issoudun
is S9+45 on 6105, splattering out to plus/minus 15 kHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** IRELAND. 3413 USB, Nov 7 at 0325, YL VOLMET in English, JBA S4 =
HNL. EiBi shows it`s Shannon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2163 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
November 6 at 2100 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+10/20
into nearby Noale SDR with fast SAH and lite English understation,
presumably Smooth Radio, Brighton.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9 but noisy
into Missouri SDR; with 10-15 seconds of heavy noise overlaying,
blocking audibility of my opening, starting exactly same time as WOR
playback, obviously WRMI defect on this System/frequency.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 at 0130 on WRMI 5950, VG
S9+20/30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday November 7 from 0401.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6160 minus 65 Hz = 6159.935. In the previous sesquiminute A51 had some

** VANUATU. 7890 < 11835, Nov 7 at 0740, R. Vanuatu JBA on 3945
harmonix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 603 kHz, Nov 7 at 0725, strong carrier but off at 0730
UT. This is a 9/kHz TA/TP split channel, but wonder if something
closer, like a domestic with a 3 kHz tone? I am not the only one
curious about 603. Possibilities include 500 kW Korea S, 600+ kW
China; 500 kW Oman, but all into daytime, most of all Oman. Similar
quandary on 891, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 891.00, Nov 7 at 0352, big het vs WLS and Cuban Spanish
on 890.00, but can`t pull any audio. Obvious choice would be Algeria,
but not there at 0412 recheck on the R75; so receiver birdie? Similar
quandary on 603, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at
0412: 684, 774-2, 837, 855 -- all likely Spain or Canary; 1467 & 1566,
JJBBA TWR Benin.

Nov 7 at 0440 another sweep: 612, 684, 747-2, 774-2, 837, 882, 999:
likewise, except 612 Morocco.

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA split MW carrier search, Nov 7 at 0725:
801, maybe not too early for 10 kW KTWG Guam, 500 kW N Korea or 250 kW
Taiwan? Also 846 Kiritimati; 1287? 50 kW Japan? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
