Next WOR 2074 should be ready by early UT Friday Feb 19 at 0130 on WRMIs 5850 & 7780.
Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support: thanks this week to William Hassig, Mount Prospect IL, for a check in US funds 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. 5085, Feb 17 at 2001, WTWW-2 night frequency is still on with music; now also WTWW-1 SFAW day frequency 9475, but not WTWW-3 15810 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. Lots of NDBs, among many others skipped past this time, Feb 17 between 0737 and 0757 UT, not in order logged but rearranged by frequency; see also USA for some more at same session:
218-MCW, Feb 17 at 0757 UT, dash and RL, 980-watt NDB at Red Lake, Ontario 257-MCW, Feb 17 at 0755 UT, dash and XE, 100-watt NDB at Saskatoon, Saskatchewan; mixing with JYR, 25 watts in York, Nebraska 269-MCW, Feb 17 at 0753 UT, dash and UDE, 50-watt NDB at Delta, Manitoba 274-MCW, Feb 17 at 0751 UT, dash and YPM, 25-watt NDB at Pikangikum, Ontario, ``back on``. 1741 km = 1082 stmi, or 43.28 miles per watt 287-MCW, Feb 17 at 0749 UT, dash and ZWG, 50-watt NDB at Winnipeg / Stoney, Manitoba.

At first seems so with similar music, but 1552, 5085 is announcing, 15810 is not. I soon switch to remotes which should get 15810 better at greater than 1-megameter skip distance, but nothing at first to Maine or Holland. No sporadic-E over N America today.

At 1644 Ted is explaining that 15810 is on at full power and something about a 5085 problem? At 1655 I try KiwiSDR in Maine, getting 15810 at only S3-S4, better to UTwente at S7 to S8. Maine gets JBA carrier S3 on 5085. At 1700 an anti-commercial by Ted about eight wifi ``radios`` they have which will soon be dead. ``Never buy a Grace(???) product for the rest of your life!`` Not sure of the brand, but some other one has been widely publicized about to crash with no further software updates. Which one is that? I leave 15810 UTwente on in the background but soon after 1700 it`s nothing but noise --- off or fadeout? At 1644 UT I had notified the WOR iog about 15810, but no other reports of it received in the next sesquihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VENEZUELA. 6200, circa 0100 UT Feb 17, routine check for ROCV via Bonaire SDR finds no signal. At 0618 Feb 17, Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, reports to the WOR iog: ``VENEZUELA, 6200, 50 watts, Radio Onda Corta Venezuela, ROCV, El Tigre.

** CUBA. 5040, Feb 16 at 0012, again tonight, S9+10/20 of dead air from RHC during English hour; still open carrier at 0030, 0040 and 0234 chex. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
Not tried again until 0608 when manages to modulate the other English hour, but combating high local line noise level. Yet now all the other transmitters are on and strong in well-modulated English! 6000, 6060, 6100, 9700. Something`s not wrong at RHC. But topic is about murder in Canada (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13700, Feb 16 at 1500, RHC is JBA but music barely // 13740 which promptly disappears, and still on // 11760. No spurs audible. By 1601, 13700 itself achieves S9/+10 before it stops mod and also goes off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 350-MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 1913 UT, ND beacon RG at Will RoGers World Airport, OKC, is back! After missing a week; and the subzero and snowpiles are not over yet. The other two, 341 EI in EnId, and 255 SW in StillWater, are still AWOL. [non]. 341-MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 1915 UT, however has a JBA mixture, probably the peripheral ones, OIN Oberlin KS and DNI DeNIson TX, but I can`t unravel the IDs to be sure (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1050 kHz, Feb 16 at 1916 UT, partial non-ID mentions 99.1 and NewsChannel 8, weather for Tulsa. It`s 1 kW ND, KGTO; the 99.1 is of course a mere translator, K256CR, per NRC AM Log. KGTO has an edge over the other Okie to here, KXCA Lawton, with one quarter the power and 19% further. Log says both are sloganned ``Heart & Soul``, non-ID not heard at this moment (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1640 kHz, Feb 16 at 1459 UT, KZLS ``Enid`` is off the air. Transmitter site is east of Hennessey, where I hear there are power outages, so maybe that`s it. Am pretty sure 1640 was still running at bedtime bandscan circa 0700. It`s back on at 1708 UT check, also when OG&E System Watch does not show any significant outage around there, altho 908 customers are powerless in Enid: https://www.oge.com/wps/portal/oge/outages/systemwatch/ (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Feb 15 & 16 at 1558 UT, KUCO-FM lacks `StarDate` as sked we always try to catch, instead stays plugged in to WCPE The Classical Station in NC, which is normally relayed only overnight 05-12 UT. Automated local ID still manages to fire around 1600 after JBA LF cuetone. KUCO must be unable to operate normally, perhaps due to again losing STL during horrible freezeweather. Ditto for other StarDate time, 0058 UT. No explanation on KUCO-FM website still displaying normal program schedule (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2073 monitoring: confirmed Monday February 15 from 1900:32 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria, S9+25/30 into UTwente SDR, but as usual inevitable very heavy splash from both sides, 7280 Vietnam and 7295 East Turkistan. 7290 already on at tune-in 1858.6; modulation cut on just before 1900 with a few words of WOR! but then abbr`d s/on, FSN headlines squeezed in before WOR restart. By 1925 recheck, has faded down and the splash is even worse by comparison. Not chopped off at 1929 finish but a few seconds of silence before music. Next: 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 2300 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support: thanks this week to William Hassig, Mount Prospect IL, for a check in US funds 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. 15555-USB, Feb 16 at 1948, rabid gospel huxter at S8, as WJHR Milton FL inbooms rather than absencing. Checking DX Map for sporadic E, finally at 2123, I see a 36 MHz MUF about halfway between along the ARK/LA border. Originally compared to 19m neighbors at 1950: 15825 WWCR JBA S4-S5; 15770 WRMISMTV S9+30; 15730 VOAGB S9+25; and 15610 WEWN S5-S7 but with long-path echo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1220, WCPH, Etowah TN, eQSL received UT Feb 16 for Jan 2 DX test: https://www.w4uvh.net/WCPH_1220_DX_20210102_GlennHauser_QSL.pdf now #111 via http://www.worldofradio.com/QSL.html with this note from the Courtesy Programs Committee QSL manager: ``Congratulations on your reception report of WCPH 1220 which was found to be correct.

** CUBA. 5040, Feb 15 at 0237, RHC is S9+10 of dead air when checked on Bonaire SDR, while 5025 Rebelde is VG OK. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9535, UT Mon Feb 15 at 0239, of all the RHC Spanish frequencies known at this hour on 13, 11, 9, 6 and 5 MHz, this is the best and yet very poor S5-S6 into Bonaire SDR. I`m checking for `En Contacto` DX program, since it was missing from first airtime Sunday morning. I switch to En Vivo webcast at http://www.radiohc.cu which is attached to a 24-hour program schedule you won`t find anywhere else, claiming E.C. is at 9:35 pm EST Sundays --- but it does not really start until 0240 UT Monday! At least it exist. Not a hint of any Profesor Arnaldo Coro Antich; instead unID OM announcer goes lickety-split in Spanish but 100% comprehensible with excellent enunciation unlike Arnie. But annoyingly and insultingly, two main topix are boilerplate about how satellite communications work; and boilerplate about HF propagation --- each broken up into alternating brief segments, as if listeners` attention spans cannot handle any more than a couple minutes of each at a time. Also some ham special events, and a brief bit about what SSB is, resorting to English-language abbreviations. At closing, locutor name ID sounds like Marvin Hueso? Same writer credit as last week but adding an uncopied matronymic last-last name. Theme music fill out for 15 minutes ending at 0255, then `En Cía del Dr`, which in the mornings is supposed to get 10 minutes at 1450; so did it run until 0305 tonight? Unknown. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Looking thru the attached webcast schedule, with lots of duplicates, http://www.radiohc.cu/audio_en_tiempo_real it breaks away from Spanish for only two English hours, at 20 UT, as on SW 15140; and at 11 UT when I unthink it be on any SW frequency. Also Esperanto Sunday at 1600 only; the daily afternoon lingo lineup of Arabic and Creole before English, French and Portuguese after. I suspect this arrangement be what also go into the several RHC FM frequencies on the island (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13564 S4-S6, 13632 S5-S6, 13768 S8-S9, 13836 S6-S7, 13904-trace, all approx., Feb 15 at 1533, extremely distorted FMish spurblobs out of RHC 13700-AM transmitter at ~68 kHz intervals; vs high local line noise level. The FM mode confronts it better than when tuned in AM, and the S-readings are while in FM. Original is somewhat undermodulated and so are the spurs. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 350, 341, 255 kHz, NDBs are still AWOL as of Feb 15, and unlikely to be repaired until record low temps abate --- in Enid minus 6 F so far and lucky to break zero as high today and tomorrow. Wind chill around minus 20 at noon in Enid. Next low to be minus 12 F. Fortunately no power outages here yet, tho the gas company warns of possible shortage, that being our main heating method. We have a few inches of new snow on the ground, and after a Monday pause, another snowstorm is forecast. We are well-stocked and staying in for the duration (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Feb 15 at 1546 very quick check, TOMBS on WWCR is now running only 13 seconds behind 9955 WRMI; why? But 9980 only has another gospel huxter voice in the background, self-QRM, unseems also BS. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 341-MCW kHz, Feb 14 at 1442 UT, ND beacon OIN, 25 watts from Oberlin KS, mixing with something else ending in I, but cannot perceive it as local EI Enid, which had been AWOL since Feb 9. I try again at midday 1805 when there should be groundwave only; still a mix, one ending in -I and seems three letters. Checking dxinfocenter.com, I see DNI in Sherman-DeNIson, TX, just across the River Red and which has been heard rarely before; the next closest one (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2073 monitoring: confirmed Sunday February 14 from 2300:24 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6159.93, S7-S9; following IS & ID loop from tune-in 2257; no sign-on but 2300:06 bit of music fill.

KCWJ is at edge of groundwave but maybe also skywave boost, from Blue Springs (Independence) MO; next closest 1030 is KBUF Holcomb (Garden City) KS; and don`t forget the one in NW AR: altho one wonders if far KCTA Corpus Christi TX or KTWO Casper WY could also be in the mix since they are 50 kW. FWIW, mwoffsets shows: 1030 1029,9965 KBUF (Holcomb, KS) [-1030.0003] 2020-11-24 1030 1029,9978 KFAY (Farmington, AR) 2018-12-07 1030 1029,9995 KCWJ (Blue Springs, MO) 2018-01-23 1030 1030,0000 KTWO (Casper, WY) 2021-01-20 1030 1030,0025 KCTA (Corpus Christi, TX) [-1030.0041] 2020-12-30 e.g., i.e., KCWJ and KBUF 3 Hz apart, tho measured two years apart. But KCWJ and KFAY were only 1.7 Hz apart (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15825, Feb 15 at 1542, JBA carrier, so WWCR-1 is back on air after outage awaiting some replacement part. Into Maine SDR it`s S9+15/30 --- and still squealing! So fixing that had nothing to do with the latest problem. How can anyone stand to listen to it? Doesn`t matter, as long as gospel huxters and/or far-right extremists be willing to buy the time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 1823 UT February 15
