** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, re my speculation that Kununurra be more
likely site than Tashkent or Taiwan for VOMK at 1500-1530: Roger
Thayer in Germany says about TDOA triangulation experiments:

``Some very bizarre hits, as expected. From the averaged pattern,
however, more so from the area around Indonesia, towards the end of
the show the hits were moving towards northern Australia [animated]
https://www.dropbox.com/s/qd3bdlwfb17da5u/2022-10-02_11620_kHz_TDoA.gif?dl=0
Anyway, it doesn't seem to be Tashkent or Taiwan. roger`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Oct 2 at 0620, no signal from VON direct. Nor at
1704, 1743 into Canary SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 2 at 0622 UT, SW, NDB at StillWater is
still on air; may assume same until I report otherwise (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Oct 2 at 1516, REE manages to modulate the ME
transmitter for the second day in a row (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UKRAINE. `Ukraine: Security Issue`. As of Oct 2, none more recent
than Sept 28 and 29 on website:
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/ua_security_issue

For Sept 28:
http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_28_09_22.mp3
including: R about to consider annexation Oct 4 after sham referedum.
US and most other countries will not recognize. Foreign Ministry says
this demonstrates that R not ready for negotiations. Each citizen in
farce will be punished as criminals. Emergency guide for what to do if
nuclear weapons used. Dirty bombs will grow exponentially around
world. R still controls Zap. NPP. World must sanxion R`s nuclear
company RusAtom, hostage to Kreml. Only 6000 of 11000 Zap. NPP
personnel still there. Gas leak on pipeline a premeditated act by R
against EU. U charges 5 R soldiers who shot at civilians in 10 cars.
Pres Z posted video of liberated village. Invaders met with singing of
national anthem thru windows thrown open.

For Sept 29:
http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_29_09_22.mp3
including: R missile strike killed more children and family,
civilians. Hospital, apartment buildings, private houses damaged. R
captured U soldiers, held in abominable, unbearable, conditions.
Greeted by soldiiers clubbing them. Had too sleep on cold concrete
floors. Document to recognize R as terrorism state. Pres Z speaks to
Harvard students. Why is R firing tanx at NPP. Nuclear blackmail,
civilized world will not give in. P might as well do same to Poland,
Europe. Satellite in operation for defense, paid for by U. Owns one
and uses services of almost two dozen more. Two U ministers make TIME
100 list of most influential (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2158 monitoring: WRMI has slightly
updated sked grid marked Oct 1. Shows a new airing for WOR, UT Monday
at 0030 from System L on 5950 - which happens to be only frequency
back on air so far, to run 24 hours. Same time WOR has been sked on
7780 not yet re-available. Still shows imaginary time canceled months
ago, Sat 1930 on 15770.

5950 chex: Oct 2 at 1413, no signal direct: ought to be at least a JBA
carrier over day path. At 1506, Georgia SDR is getting S8/S9 of dead
air carrier, music added by 1517. 1530 a `Mighty Fortress` church
broadcast starts as connexion breaks. Big change: R Africa Network at
15-21 on silent 21525 is now also on 5950 - not that that has any
chance of reaching Africa over daypath. 1559 YL ID claims to be on
21525 - what does she know? 1600 `The Bible Answers`.

So remaining nominal WOR SW+ sked:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 1323 & 918? & 207?-Italy

CUBA. 11850, Sept 30 at 0141, a few RHC frequencies are back on
after widespread Ian-caused power outages. Back to ``normal``, this
one is S9+10/20 of just-barely-modulated Spanish; also 9650, S9+10
merely undermodulated. And 6000 at 0145, S9+20/30 in English with
sufficient modulation. Not found on any other frequency normally on
air at this time. Per EiBi, 6000 & 11850 are Quivicán site, 9650
Bejucal; so major Bauta plant still dark (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. 5025, 5040, 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, Sept 30 at 0627, all
these transmitters are off, but:

9805 & 9565, Sept 30 at 0631, pulse jammings against nothings are
drawing powers from somewheres (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CUBA. Survey of RHC frequencies, Sept 30 at 2340, finds only: 6000
S7/S9 JBM Spanish? 9650 S9/+10 better in Spanish; there are no others
on those bands, nor on the 5s, 11s, 13s or 15s. But 13650 CRI music
relay is on, S9+20 JBM and at 2344 the NHK IS audible under in this
protracted collision. 9535 with something in Chinese, not Cuba.

Another check at 0023: 12000 S9 JBM English = 2 x 6000. At 0026, 11850
is now on at S9+10/20 but as always JBM Spanish. Somethings` always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs
** BOLIVIA. 5952.469+, Oct 2 at 0100, has to be Radio Pio Doce on its
signature split, S9/S8 carrier but can`t make out any modulation.
First noted as big het upon 5950 WRMI, both via UTwente. Meshes with
this on the WOR iog a few hours before: ``Lucio Otavio Bobrowiec - Hi
all, On 5952 since 2158, that het which must be R. Pio XII but nothing
audible until 2248, 01/10. Was some weeks silent. 73 Lucio
Brazil`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 15600, Oct 1 at 2219, music and talk eventually recognized
as Spanish: CRI to S America direct from Beijing site, 500 kW at 318
degrees, i.e. heading NW across Siberia, Europe, Atlantic, a long way,
but both short and long paths are extensive. SE over the Pacific would
avoid auroral zone absorption. Antipodes of Beijing is near Bahía
Blanca, Argentina. Rapid RTTY on the plus side, evitable by LSB tuning
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. Too much! Oct 2 at 0131+ I find four pirates at once
on The band: 6923 USB, 6930 USB, 6955 USB and 6960 USB. I stay on the
first one for a while:

6923 USB, Oct 2 at 0131, pirate song S4/5/7 on peaks, also 0136. 0150
``Addams Family``, seems to be Hallowe`en theme. Gives us a break,
until the end of Oct? 0156 ``They`re Coming to Take Me Away``. These
suggest it`s Sycko Radio without any explicit ID copied:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102600.0.html

6930 USB, Oct 2 at 0132, pirate music at S4/S6. Per these, WWWW:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102599.0.html

6955 USB, Oct 2 at 0133, rock music, -something- Radio ID, S3/S6. Too
many of these are too `produced` rather than pronounced clearly with
no background/mixing, etc. Three pages say Radio Free Whatever:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102588.0.html

6960 USB, Oct 2 at 0135, rock, S4/S6. These say Lucky 13 Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,102597.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, Oct 1 at 2035 UT, SW, ND beacon at
StillWater. Last time heard was June 8 in daily chex, day and/or
night. Has had protracted absences before. No telling whether back to
stay now for a while. Classaxe says 50 watts, dxinfocentre says 25.
It`s JBA, much weaker than used to be, so maybe even less now (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 AM, Oct 1 at 2038, Enid CB pirate again relaying
95.7 KXLS, very strong but now with big het from a spoiler carrier
equally strong on 27185.8. Pick one or the other by LSB/USB tuning.
Note: a number of other random times checked, this has not been on
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Oct 1 at 2048, after 6 days of dead air, REE finally
manages to modulate, just in time for a stupid ballgame; // stronger
17855 direct, Something`s no longer nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SWITZERLAND. 18142 USB, Oct 1 at 2045, HB9TWY contact with a VA3.
At first I thought he said HP9TWY as in Panamá, accent not Spanish,
but we know a lot of expats are radicated there; then mentions local
time at UT+2. QRZ.com with a few landscape, antenna photos:

HB9TWY Switzerland flag Switzerland
``Yannick (YAN) Matthey

LA SARRAZ 1315

QSL: No qsl`` -- imagine that! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.003, Oct 1 at 2216, VOT English, S9+15 direct but very
undermodulated. 2235 S9+5/15 also into UTwente, undermodulated. Stays
on with 2300 timesignal and opening German, and still on at end of
German 2351 with song, now S9+55, when max volume on SDR plus locally
are not too much to overload. Chopped off air at 2352.8* depriving us
of another extra hour in Brazilian, shux. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15730, Sat Oct 1 at 2049, VOA Grimesland in Hausa, S9+20;
also on 15185 with English lesson, S9+35. I wondered whether remnants
of Ian would blow any VOA or OCB off, but did not get them checked
during max winds there. Obviously OK now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2158 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
October 1 at 1929, right on time, at WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO,
S9+15 into nearby Warrenton KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday October 2 at 0322 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM again,
S9+18 same but noisy, about 11 minutes into so started circa 0311.

Note that the next chance when WRMI hopes to be back on air would not
be until UT Tuesday 0030 on 9395. Otherwise, scheduled, next:

** U S A. The latest from Jeff White: Sent: Saturday, October 1, 2022,
10:25:14 PM GMT+1

Friends, Colleagues and Clients: Our frequency of 5950 kHz has just
come back on the air at 2100 UT Saturday. We will keep this frequency
on the air 24 hours per day until we get more transmitters on the air.
It has been a slow process of repairing the transmission lines in the
muddy swampland. We do not expect to have any other frequencies on the
air until Monday. Probably the first ones to go back on the air Monday
will be 9395 and 9455 kHz if all goes well. Then we will gradually
bring all of the others back as the transmission lines are repaired.
Our Internet stream has continued to operate during and after the
storm, mostly with 9955 kHz programming. Thanks for your patience and
understanding, and we will keep you updated.

** U S A. 5950, Oct 2 at 0100, Texas R Shortwave on the only WRMI
frequency restarted yet. I`m trying it on the UTwente SDR where it`s
amazingly strong, S9/+10, for an azimuth of 355, about 50 degrees away
from head-on to Europe. Wonder if askew or really on same antenna as
before the storm. Also with het from 5952+ which has to be BOLIVIA,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.93, Oct 2 at 0033, WBCQ with rock music show, `Cruisin`
the Decades`, S9/+10 into Georgia SDR. NOT on the website program
schedule, rather `AAAWWW`, which I was going to check shortly for the
part I missed last night as Allan was calling out to me. Par for the
course with never-up-to-date sked. If it can be believed, next chance
for `AAAWWW` should be Monday after 2200. This `Cruisin`` is nowhere
on the quadrifrequency sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
