** CHINA. 12800, June 13 at 1346, CNR1 jammer at S8-S9, none higher
WOOB but 15165. Tuning down past 11 MHz, mostly JBA or JBA carriers
presumed same: 12190, 11360, 11170, 11150, 10960, 10920, 10820. Also
sounds like same talk on 12140 but not synchronized at all; supposed
to be RFA Burmese via Tinian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13660, June 13 at 1343, RHC S9 and distorted on this leapfrog
mixing product of S9+10/20 13740 over S9+20/30 13700, another 40 kHz
beyond; no equivalent reverse leap on 13780 but a JBA carrier maybe
that, as nothing else listed; except Aoki/NDXC still shows a
fundamental RHC on 13780, NOT. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, June 13 at 2256, RHC is S9+10/15 of dead air, but when
modulation start will it be horribly distorted today? 11760 is
splattering plus/minus 10 as often now; 11800 is undermodulated but
not JBM; 15370 is undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. Greg Hardison replies to my previous log under USA:

``Glenn: -- "0113, 90.3, fringe local relay of KHYM...mixing with
another English station with GEICO ad, perhaps 100 kW KFLR..."

Hmmm, GEICO's pretty blatantly commercial; I don't think they burn
their resources with Bible-barkers. My money here would be squarely on
EE-lango XHITZ, "Z-90" for San Diego, from Tijuana. As far as my
recollection, TJ 90.3 has been pop-ish in English since its inception
in 1972. Further backing that would be your subsequent recept of
Sports (KWFN) on 97.3. I have to chortle at GEICO, which twice over
the years has quoted me @ circa 3 times what I pay for auto insurance!

assume it remain until I report it gone again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, June 13 at 2250, VOT is on with music, but ruined by
local scratch-noise blob spanning 9810-9850; another one vs the pirate
band, 6950-6985 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun June 14 at 0032, WTWW-2 has started `TONITO`,
organist introducing piece by Duke Ellington. I swiftly abandon the
distorted 5085 for clear $ tereo webcast via

** MEXICO. The 6m DXMAP shows an MUF spike to 106 MHz somewhere south
of here, so altho most spots are much lower, I figure it`s worth
trying for a decent sporadic E FM DX session, and so it is, the first
here this ``summer`` since mid-April. Altho it`s pretty hot in the
car, at least it`s not in the sun, so the Nissan stock radio is
primary, with the DX-398 secondary, antenna out the window. The latter
has RDS but none of the DX signals are strong/stable enough to decode
if any, but at least I can keep track of two frequencies at a time.

This starts UT Sat June 13 at 0028. I try <92 MHz first, but nothing
makes it thru all the ACI or CCI. I might miss some US stations, but
q.v. a few, as I`m alert for frequencies speaking Spanish. All these
from my notes on my receivers in real time, no remotes, and no
recordings.

Prime reference source, the WTFDA FM Radio Station Database. Distances
city-to-city, not exact coords, distancefromto.net

0028, 93.3 Spanish, ``La Banda 93``, caller on phone then music, and
soon super-hype voice actor (SHVA) as ``La Nueva`` with no further
numbers. One or both non-IDs? The latter gets one hit:
``XHPNVO-FM 93.3 EL SALTO DGO MEX 6.0 kW 101.2 m 23-46-42 105-21-37
Spanish HD GRUPERA LA NUEVA 93.3``. 1575 km = 979 stmi

0030, 93.5, Spanish talk, VG but no RDS; advice show mentions ``las
bubis``

0033, 95.3, Spanish music mixing with KOKC translator - which really
gets out 100 km from a tall tower

0033, 97.3, PSA about Corona Virus in Spanish and a segment in an
Indigenous language; ``radio y televisión mexicana --- contigo``. Then
repeating phone number 4-12-13-14, in Udalá (?). Nothing fits in the
db, but there are about 4 stations in the northern tier of states. The
MUF in this opening.

0035, 93.1, Spanish ID as ``Hits FM 93.1`` and ad for algo on Canal 6;
0037 ID again, PSA about CV cuarentena from the Cámara de Diputados;
0039 ID as XHCTO, Torreón, Coahuila, and a third Hits non-ID. 0046,
``Habla Corazón``, from same station? program name? 0049 announcer
asks for reports (not DX, I assume), acknowledges listeners in Parral,
León, Torreón. Listed as:
``XHCTO-FM 93.1 TORREÓN COAH MEX 38.56 kW 208.0 m 25-31-29 103-27-19
Spanish SPANISH TEEN HITS - JUVENIL HITS FM``. 1304 km = 810 stmi

0040, 92.9, ad for Colegio España, ``92.9 España FM, definiendo la
nueva cultura``, about UNIS(?), ``estamos en tu cabeza``, Viz.:
``XHUNES-FM 92.9 DURANGO DGO MEX 10.0 kW 54.0 m 24-02-53 104-37-47
Spanish ESPAÑA FM College ESPAÑA FM Universidad España``. 1521 km =
945 stmi

0048, 92.1, Spanish rap mixing with norteña music

0051, 92.3, music and Spanish ID? missed; 0055 TC for 7,55 and temp 33
grados, music; time means it`s here in the CDT zone, not PDT, so
distinct from what I hear next; see Durango below later on 92.3.

0057 ``La Bestia 92.3``, Diputados PSA, CCI, then ToH ID as XHMMF,
Mexicali, Baja California. 0103 ``la mula blanca``, apparently not the
name of a different station. Viz.:
``XHMMF-FM 92.3 MEXICALI BC MEX 21.9 kW 48.08m 32-38-18 115-38-17
Spanish SPANISH HITS BALADAS LA BESTIA GRUPERA``. 1637 km = 1017 stmi

Had to run inside for another logbook, so resuming after a break:

0118, 92.3, ``Caliente`` slogan, Spanish music, CCI in Spanish and
English(Kansas?). Viz. one hit and in the PTA = probable target area:
``XHTRR-FM 92.3 TORREÓN COAH MEX 15.0 kW 208.0m 25-31-29 103-27-19
Spanish CALIENTE REGIONAL MEXICAN LA CALIENTE``. 1304 km = 810 stmi

0119, 92.7, romantic music in Spanish

0122, 96.5, romantic music in Spanish above the Okies, soon f/out

0125, 90.7, romantic music in Spanish, too much ACI both sides

0128, 93.1, Spanish music, 0129 DJ with advice like 93.5 earlier.

** U S A. 7490, UT Sat June 13 at 0000, after FKB gospel huxter
finishes, WBCQ with a spot commercial for SDRs; 0001.5 dead air; 0002
a few seconds of old favorite song ``Wheels``; 0003 another tune; 0004
ID for AM 780, Monticello-Presque Isle, and a bit of USA Radio News,
cut off; 0004.5 finally ``William Tell Overture`` theme of `AAAWWW`
starts, 0007.8 among his first words, ``confusion``.

5130 and 6159.9 were not on at 0000, but at 0003 at least a carrier
from 5130 but can`t make out any mod. 6159.9 on by 0019 check, running
17 seconds behind 7490; and 5130 VP, unknown delay.

However, I`ve just noticed sporadic E MUF up to 106 MHz, so away I go
hoping to catch an FM DX opening here: see MEXICO, and USA.

John Carver fills us in on the rest of `AAAWWW`:

``Tonight's show started on 7490 four minutes late this evening and no
signal on 5130, and 6160 was carrying something else. Six minutes in,
5130 and 6160 were both carrying AAWWW but then 6160 went into Mama
Mia or some such. Allan and Angela in the studio. Allan blamed the
late start on computer problems. 6160 back to AAWWW by the next check.
Opening talk about America and the world a "ball of confusion". The
foam in Allan's headphones began to break apart and he had black
flecks of it on his face and shirt. Then back to the ball of
confusion. A very animated Angela this evening went into a long rant
that I won't get into as it was a bit distasteful.

Phone call at 0019 from a caller who said that both Allan and Angela
were correct and then went on to say that most of the problems in this
country were due to vaccines and the way they were administered.
Another call immediately from a nurse that defended vaccines and
stated that vaccines and good hygiene are what has kept us alive and
healthy. Another immediate phone call from a gentleman who is learning
how to drive a truck and complaining about how difficult it was.

Allan then launches an appeal for racial diversity and acceptance.
Then a long discussion between Allan and the animated Angela about
recent events in this country. Closing prayer at 0056 and then reading
of two emails at 0058. Program was off the air at 0100 in the middle
of a sentence. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Sporadic E opening, UT Saturday June 13, mainly from N/W
MEXICO, q.v., but also AZ:

0101, 92.3, traffic report about I-17 freeway, and State Road 89, then
weather by YL sponsored by Howard Air, news about marches in ``The

``KTTI 95.1 YUMA AZ USA 50.0 kW 75.0 m 32-38-31 114-33-34 COUNTRY

0113, 90.3, fringe local relay of KHYM with commercials for Dodge
City, Woodward, i.e. 490-watt KHEV Fairview OK, mixing with another
English station with GEICO ad, perhaps 100 kW KFLR, Family Life Radio,
Phœnix. (db does not show KHEV as KHYM relay)

0121, 97.3 sports talk in English, Es fades, soon gone, not // OK on

UNIDENTIFIED. 9375-9410 approx., wandering local noiseblob at 360-kHz
intervals now here causing heavy QRM to 9395 WRMI. These continue
below 11 MHz, but overall seem not as strong as originally (Glenn
Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1922 UT June 12

** CHINA [non]. Re my unlisted 9300 log, from a huge exhaustive
all-band dekaday survey by Wolfgang Bueschel of ChiCom jamming:
``9299.959 0000-2359 TWN SOH Xi Wang Zhi Shen. Chinese Miaoli, S=9 at
00.40 UT on June 10.`` so it was SOH without jamming when he heard it
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. Re my previous report about RHC, James Branum, OK, replies:

``Glenn, I think you are speaking about Elena Valverde. With regards
to English fluency, I have met Irma (from the Mailbag show) on my two
visits to RHC and can say she is extremely fluent in English. I hope
to someday meet the other on-air staff, but so far have only met her.

As to the issue of censorship... That is not how it works in Cuban
state media today. It is much more understated with an emphasis on
staying on message, presenting Cuba in a positive light, etc. This
approach is not far removed from what most state and corporate
broadcasters do. James Branum, KG5JST and RHC fan`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, June 11 at 0052, RHC S9+5 in Spanish and extremely
distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

5040, June 11 at 0056, RHC in French is also extremely distorted.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND [non]. 9955, UT Thu June 11 at 0100, new WRMI relay of
RNZ as per updated sked at 0100-0130, with `Korero Pacifica`, as on
WRN to North America at this hour, about topic-V of course; but it`s
only 15 minutes followed by Vatican on WRN sked. So presumably not
live // 13840 RNZI direct, unchecked, with different Pacifican
programming scheduled for full hour. Heavy jamming before 0100 vs
Alameda Bible Fellowship in English now slowly abates. But what is the
point of onsending this to South America one day a week? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2037 monitoring: confirmed Wed June 10 from
2100:20 on WBCQ 7490v, JBA, unfortunately much worse than 24 hours
ago.

Also confirmed UT Thu June 11 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S3-S7 VP in noise
here, good at UTwente SDR.

Next WOR 2038 should be ready by early UT Friday June 12 for first
WRMI broadcast at 2200 on 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6100-6130, June 11 at 0044, WWCR-1 besides that awful squeal
is spewing hash out across his range (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Local wandering scratch-noise blobs, June 11 0038-0048
include: approx. 6900-6935, 9020-9080, 9360-9430, 9720-9800; and
surely more splotches between 7 and 9 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 0219 UT June 11

** ANTARCTICA. 15476-, June 10 at 1451, JBA carrier from LRA36,
another Wednesday-only broadcast over a mostly-water path from
Esperanza to Enid. Cleaning up brush after another windstorm, I don`t
get around to checking the Brazilian remotes this week (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 13020, 11440, 10920, June 10 at 1453, the only CNR1 jammers
found in scan from 13.3 to 10.8 MHz, JBA music or worse (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, June 9 at 2054, S6-S7 open carrier of RHC: this is not
something wrong, but warming up for nominal tarde start at 2100 on
this and several others (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12200, June 10 at 0552, RHC English S9-S6 on 2 x 6100 much
stronger, the voice of Lena (?) Valverde --- one cannot imagine her
speaking extemporaneously like ``Ed Newman``, instead of stiltedly
reading a script once run by the censors. Maybe she`s not that
confident of her English fluency.

Searching the RHC website I get no hits on Valverde except for someone
else surnamed. The About-us page is no help either to acquaint us with
individual announcers, rather political reasons for RHC as an entity.

Since we often get such harmonix, this prompts me to compute possible
harmonix of other higher RHC frequencies which might show up by
sporadic E, especially now at season-peak. Here are all of them below
31.5 MHz, seconds, thirds, fourths; fifths and sixths for the lowest:

15730 = 31460
15370 = 30740
15230 = 30460
15140 = 30280
15120 = 30240
13740 = 27480
13700 = 27400
13650 = 27300
11950 = 23900
11880 = 23760
11800 = 23600
11760 = 23520
11700 = 23400
11670 = 23340
9790 = 29370, 19580
9640 = 28920, 19280
9580 = 28740, 19160
9570 = 28710, 19140
9535 = 28605, 19070
7380 = 29520, 22140, 14760
7350 = 29400, 22050, 14700
6145 = 30725, 24580, 18435, 12290
6100 = 30500, 24400, 18300, 12200*
6060 = 30300, 24240, 18180, 12120
6000 = 30000, 24000, 18000, 12000*
5990 = 29950, 23960, 17970, 11980*
5040 = 30240, 25200, 20160, 15120, 10080
5025 = 30150, 25125, 20100, 15075, 10050
4765 = 28590, 23825, 19060, 14295*, 9530*
* indicates those which have axually been monitored as I recall.

Of course, these are possible only when the fundamental be on the air.
Included are all currently active RHC and CRI relay frequencies,
Rebelde, Progreso, but not jammers, intermodulation or other spurs,
nor spy numbers which come from the same sites.

I`ve used a calculator to be sure all these be correct; more useful
would be to arrange them into a single frequency order, but that`s
enough for now. Perhaps someone else will do that? Of course, even
higher harmonix are quite possible in a strong sporadic E opening from
Cuba; an harmonic no more than 3X from 15730 would land on 47190
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13766 & 13634 approx., June 10 at 1337, RHC spurblobs out of
13700-AM, no readable mod. At 1354 I try for more, which are JBA circa
13569, 13831, with F# tone in AM which is also audible on S9+20 13700
but not on // unrelated 13740. However, at 1449 recheck 13700 still on
but no spurs audible. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

BTW, if you find that remark tiresome, don`t blame the messenger. If
RHC ever get its acts together, I shall happily stop saying it; DHYB
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SUDAN SOUTH [non]. 11650, my previous log of R. Tamazuj --- sounds
like ``Tamazuk`` --- mentioning their alleged English news segment Wed
& Sat at 0415-0425, served as a note-to-self to check it out at next
opportunity: I had MADAGASCAR well direct but Wed June 10 at 0412 for
convenience at the computer bring up UTwente instead, with a VG
signal, much better than // 7315 via France. Interview by OM with YL
on phone about Corona virus; the only English being when he says
``OK`` to start each reply. NO other English, keeps going in presumed
Juba Arabic (which does sound rather different than standard Arabic),
until 0422 music, 0427 elaborate sign-off; ending with mention of
sibling FPU station Radio Dabanga, which axually starts to sign-on,
before cut off the air at 0429.8*. Comes back on at *0431. There was
no need for a break as per HFCC exactly the same parameters apply to
both: 250 kW at 335 degrees, 15 slew, 159 antenna type. But where`s
the English, Ivo? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K. 9800, June 9 at 2100* poor signal with a smidgen of music and
off. HFCC has it as Encompass via Woofferton in Arabic at 1800-2100
but we know it`s really World`s Last Chance Radio, having found 500 kW
from Maine insufficient, at least while stuck to 9330. Also registered
at 19-21 on 9800 is something NEW from Bulgaria in English; maybe a
standby siteswitch for same? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Next WOR 2038 should be ready by early UT Friday June 12 for first
WRMI broadcast at 2200 on 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7490v, June 9 at 2105, WBCQ in `AAAWWW` playback from June 6
as he`s talking about making their own ice cream; yes, listed as an
Available Time Slot. Better reception than I expect this early in the
summer; AW recently said he had beefed up power on the classic
transmitters; now fair S6-S9, let`s hope also for WOR 24 hours later
on Wednesday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, June 10 at 0144, WRNO is S9+10/20 of dead air; except
for some JBA beeping, QRM or self-inflicted? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15825, June 9 at 2050, dead air except for squeal! from
WWCR-1; finally about 2050.5 starts `Unshackled` at very odd hour.
Maybe it`s the default filler for a failure? No, it`s scheduled for
2030 Tuesdays. Anyhow, noting an S9-S7 signal boost by sporadic E.
Despite these tipoffs, VHF Es openings MUF into the FM band continue
to elude me (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, June 10 at 0547, S6-S8 seems like Bislama from R
Vanuatu; 7890 with JBA carrier, harmonix from 3945, but no signal on x
4 = 15780; 0555 music, 0559 announcements mixed with music, maybe one
English word caught, ``o`clock``. It seems they are running 3945 +
multiples earlier and earlier, or all the time? Ron Howard listened to
11835 from 0445 June 8, and they were already on at 0255 June 9 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Local scratch-noise blobs have drifted up/down but still
at about 360 kHz intervals. Any idea what device would behave like
that? June 9 at 2100 finds them around 9700-9750 peaking 9725-9730;
9335-9400, 9370; 8975-9050, 9010 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
