** ALGERIA [and non]. 17600, Aug 28 at 0042, S0/S2 algo M&W
conversation, Arabic? Yes, a bit better signal switching from E/W loop
to shortwire N/S. Got to be TDA which has been testing 17600 mostly in
daytime, now overnight. About to declare it the OSOB until tuning down
across Chinese on 17560 at S1/S2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9664.987, Aug 28 at 0614, RVM with S4/S6 music, notably
very close to nominal 9665 lately! And fairly stable. Measured for the
record (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 17560, Aug 28 at 0045, Chinese at S1/S2: VOA Philippines
sked this hour so probably CNR1 jammer. JBA Chinese? on 17490, which
would be CRI Beijing site in Cantonese.

Nothing on the 18 MHz band nor circa 16 MHz, but 14920 at 0047, JBA
fluttery, CNR1 jammer against Sound of Hope (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13680, Aug 27 at 2215. RHC Spanish S6/S7 but suptorted =
suppressed and distorted modulation; something`s always wrong at RHC.
But 13740 is VG S9 with normal mod (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sunday Aug 28 at 1412, RHC S9+10 but suptorted as
`Mundo de la Filatelia` is starting. Still good on 13700 but
spurblobless. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT [and non]. 9440, Aug 27 at 2118 into UTwente, no signal from
R. Cairo in English, nor after 2200. When on, it`s horrible.

9900, Aug 27 at 2220 direct, S2/S5 with large wobble/warble of
frequency, presumed R. Cairo Portuguese to Brasil as scheduled. But at
2236 into UTwente, steady no w/w but just barely modulated on
9899.957+. At 2300 a close-to-accurate timesignal is audible. Goes off
at 2316* leaving a weaker signal close to 9900.000+. That would be the
China/Taiwan radio war. Cairo PP service is scheduled 2215-2330; and
next, 2330- in Arabic on 9885, but nothing heard there. Something`s
always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 7254.9+, Aug 28 at 0616, VON is on at S9/+10 but
undermodulated. Wolfgang Büschel was simulmonitoring:

``7254.934, Today Sun Aug 28 only empty carrier on air, when checked
at 0610 UT in NoAM, like Rochester-NY and Massachusetts remote SDR's.
S=8 at peaks, regular S=/ signal these days at this hour. At 06-07 UT
Hausa lang px is scheduled. Now around 0625 UT some WeAF folk mx
instrument to be heard, BUT ONLY 5 % modulation level, I'd to switch
off the AGC control and set the audio level manually. 73 wolfy df5sx
https://www.wwdxc.de/swl.pdf``

How does one measure % modulation level on an SDR? Or is it just a
guess by ear?

7254.933v, Aug 28 at 1700 into Canary SDR, trace at S3/S5 including
noise level, hardly anything audible to ear, but must be VON on
off-frequency. 1729 recheck however, no carrier there, so has
disappeared leaving an even weaker one within 3 Hz of 7255.000 ---
that would be until 1805, PBS Xizang, TIBET occupied by the ChiCom.
1755 recheck, VON is back on offset channel, and built up to S8/9+10
about Abuja traffic. Manuel Méndez, Spain, says it cut off abruptly,
again, at 1813. I check at 1854: VON is *on again* with music peaking
S9+15. 1857 ``more music at nbc.com``; wrapup, 1958 drum/flute IS just
as that big low audible het hits from CRI Turkish, ruining both of
them. Only occasional chex here since I`m mainly listening to
`Pipedreams` on WYSU stream at 17-19 UT Sundays (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960 AM, Aug 28 at 0024 & 0038, pirate music JBA vs
HSNL. JBA carrier at 0048. Many reports here say it`s WDOG:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101164.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, Aug 28 at 0025, pirate music and DJ, S7/S9
including HSNL; 0038 & 0048 chex, SSTV beepery. Including images,
these say it`s Bad Dog but none later than 0020:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,101161.0.html
Long after I quit, further 6925s reported as WWWW Radio and Two Dog
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.018+, Aug 27 at 2200, VOT English is on with VG signal
into UTwente, but the squealing transmitter, enough excuse to skip it
today. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. Re: 395 kHz, NDB CA at Newton/Harvs KS: ``Hi Glenn - What
about the following? The city of Newton is in Harvey County - named
for James Madison Harvey (September 21, 1833 – April 15, 1894).
He was a US senator from Kansas and fifth Governor of Kansas.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_M._Harvey_(politician)
Ron`` Howard, CA

Makes as much sense as EI Enid being nicknamed ``Garfy`` for Garfield
County, named for a president. ``Garfy`` is never heard in any other
context among inhabitants.

While looking that up at https://rxx.classaxe.com/en/rna/signals
I also note the periods of the three on 341 kHz, in seconds to three
decimal places, presumably the intervals between the start of one ID
loop and start of the next one, regardless of the length of each MCW.
Note that EI Enid and OIN Oberlin are almost the same, so it would
take quite a while to go thru a complete cycle of total CCI and total
alternation. Perhaps a mathematician can come up with the formula.
Periods: EI 7.931, DNI 5.319, OIN 7.79 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2153 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday August 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S6/S9, the first few seconds
marred by a noise burst which keeps happening, now after the Allen
Graham Ecuador ID.

** U S A. 9330.185V, Aug 27 at 2222, WLCR/WBCQ is S9/+10 in English,
and slightly wavering, furthest off-frequency yet. I`m no expert on
transmitters or their drivers, but what I don`t get is why they don`t
come with ``fine-tuning`` capability, just like receivers. Of course
someop would still have to be responsible for keeping them zeroed. Or
why not AFC = automatic frequency control? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330v, Aug 28 at 1415, WBCQ/WLCR is OFF. What`s the problem
now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.9, Aug 28 at 0020, the Akron guy from Summit Radio with
his `Cruisin` the Decade` show on WBCQ. i.e. during one hour, 10 songs
from each of the past 10 decades. He talx a lot about them too and
really seems to know his subject, but limited to the narrow genre of
US pop music, apparently. At 0032 says he`s on 20 stations, mostly AM
& FM including CKLB-FM 101.9 in Yellowknife N[W]T, which WTFDA FM
database shows as a 234-watt aboriginal station, ``The Voice of
Denedeh`` with a country [sic] format; and also with long-range
coverage via SW, Channel 292 in Germany, the WBCQ ``mega-transmitter``
[sic] in Maine, and WRMI; and greets some listeners who heard him on
each. 0035 plays a song from 1982y and reaches the current decade by
0053 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Aug 28 at 0036 & 0054, still no `Theater Organ
Under the Arch` as supposedly scheduled around 0030, rather a ham YL
with Q&A such as, should I ever climb a tower alone? NO (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9475, Aug 28 at 1545, NO signal from WTWW-1, once prime time
for Sunday morning disservice by passé Pastor Pete Peters. So is this
transmitter totally out of air, nor 5830 evenings? Nor have I run
across WTWW on 9940 lately, whichever #transmitter that may have been,
the ``Ukraine`` service ``Voice of Freedom``, which also sometimes
used to be referred to on 5085 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [non]. 11835, Aug 28 at 0618, JBA carrier, surely too weak
to be RV X 3, so maybe China now? No harmonic JBA carrier on 7890 at
all (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
