** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Wednesday July 13 from 1455 to 1555,
NEVER any signal from LRA36 into best Argentine SDR, another failure
of scheduled broadcast; but there are blaaps every 7.5 seconds and
irregular clix, OTH radar? none of which would have been serious
obstacles. Better luck on Saturday July 16? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, July 13 at 0630, all these RHCs are
off already in English. You never know which or any will remain after
0600. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** INTERNATIONAL VACUUM. The much-anticipated first images from the
Webb Spacescope: yes, they are impressive and pretty - but we realize
they are the outcome of post-produxion, as no humaneye could ever see
anything like that. We hope to trust that the colorization, converted
from infrared wavelengths, bear some relation to reality; but spare us
all the six-pointed ``stars``, which if not imposed deliberately would
be considered produced by defective optix. Not satisfied with glimpses
on various TV news, I went to the NASA.gov website, which also
prompted me to take a survey: fine, I`ll tell them off! ``Do not close
this window`` --- I did not but it disappeared anyway. Oops, altho gone from main screen I later find it - but most of the 37
questions are *required multiple-choice, and have nothing to do with
my issue, rather presentation of the website in general, etc.
Nevermind (Glenn Hauser, Terra, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.7 AM, July 12 at 2351, CB pirate relay of 103.1
KOFM Enid during local adstring, S9+10/20. What a bonus for
advertisers! Does KOFM even know or care about this hijacking? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, July 13 at 0501-0507, `Ukraine: Security
Issue` via WRMI. Missed the datestamp but not a repeat of yesterday so
must be new. As for the other UR1 relay: ``Checked yesterday and today, July 12 and 13, WRMI still airing
preacher at 1200 UT on 5010 kHz. There's no introduction to this
program, seems to be joined in progress. Glad to hear they've resumed
