** GUATEMALA. 4055, June 24 circa 0300, TGAV VP vs storm noise via TWR
Brownsville SDR, and none closer; JBA or worse at Colombia, Bonaire,
DR.

Ulis Fleming reports to the WOR iog June 23: ``Radio Verdad has (had?)
a nice 7th harmonic on 28385 kHz in the 10 meter amateur radio band
that is audible here in Maryland when the MUF is there or E-Skip going
on. I have used it as a beacon to Central America. Good luck!
Ulis``

Harmonic from TGAV? A new one on me. Must look out for 28385. I don`t
recall any lower ones ever reported, which would likely radiate more
power, but they all fall way-out-of-band, like the fundamental, so
could escape notice. Since X 7 is odd, the other *odds X 3 and X 5 may
be more likely than the evens. Vigilate: 8110, *12165, 16220, *20275,
24330. Should turn them loose like Vanuatu?

Also, Chuck Gessner, W3ON tells us June 23, ``I received a nice email
from Dr. Edgar Madrid, who operates the 'Radio Verdad', Chiquimula
short wave radio station in Guatemala on 4055 kHz. It operates mostly
during the daylight hours in Guatemala but can be heard prior to local
U.S. sunrise, then fade out. Then again from our U.S. sunset through
the darkness hours in the U.S. He reported that the COVID19 virus has
not affected people in Chiquimula, although most are staying home. He
reported that it took four months for my early January letter to reach
him. He further reported that

"Radio Verdad has not ceased operation, except that we sometimes
operate automatically, mostly by night. We are transmitting to some
countries with 'Radio Truth International' too. We are now in the
effort to send our signal to the United States with all power. I
expect your report whenever you pick up Radio Truth with a very strong
signal, which does not require antennas. It may be very soon. I am
receiving reports from Bolivia, Argentina and Brazil with our new
strong signal already. We are struggling to make all that possible.
May God be with you and take care of your good health.
Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid
email: radioverdad5@yahoo.com
web site: https://radioverdad.org/ "``

``very strong signal without antennas`` --- so he`s still buying in to
that scam we haven`t heard him mention for well over a year, and which
I repeatedly tried to warn him about. But he is a man of faith. Just
keep sending them quetzales (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7470, June 24 at 0350, anti-Christ pirate, Station
YHWH in well via Sedona AZ SDR, but certainly not local with fading;
tnx to tip from Rick Barton, further south in AZ. Also tried the S
California SDRs, but little or no signal there. Blames New World
Order. 0355 ``emergency transmission; so long, peace``, quote from
Jeremiah, 0357 theme song `Days of Hard Life`. 0400 ID, ``Station
YHWH, my name is Josiah Elias, Pacific time is about 9 o`clock``; and
more talk but fading into the noise. 0401 ``Station YHWH now signing
off`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5850, UT Wed June 24 at 0123 check, this WRMI-12 has B.B. ID
for ``greatest music of all time``, i.e. Oldies, a term not used on
the air. Webskedgrid shows `Power of Wd` is supposed to air now.

5850, UT Wed June 24 at 0200, I am sure to check out the new `Quorum
Radio` --- Starts with 3-2-1 countdown, ``Good evening, North America,
Quorum Radio now on the air``, right into interviewing guest Sean
DeGrilla(??) author of the 2000+th book about the Kennedy
assassination; thinx he has proof that Oswald was a patsy, from
analyzing his voice, comparing his AM and FM frequencies (huhhh??).
One more conspiracy theory, so 10 minutes is plenty of that.

Nothing about Q.R. yet on the WRMI Programming page. Strange, I had
the impression it was a music request show; well, sort of, per this
from WRMI via disgraced FB:

``WRMI Radio Miami International June 16 at 11:46 AM · [zone??]

QUORUM RADIO offers interesting guests and eclectic music for its
North American audience. Its founder is Bill McIntosh of
https://www.ocasomedia.net/

(Internet only)
2000-2100 UTC Tuesday and Wednesday on 9455 kHz

Bill McIntosh Image may contain: one or more people and closeup``

Self-portrait has behind his left shoulder what appears to be a
picture of JC & Mary? Nothing about Peru on homepage, and has a (305)
phone number, no physical address for contact. One of the testimonials
mentions that he`s a guy in Peru; apparently his main business is PR,
getting ``event speaker`` clients booked on other media. The website
is (C) 2023, so maybe all this be futurism (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, June 24 at 0127, WTWW-2 with rock music, a Ted-ded,
rather than his QSO ham show; the competing `Amateur Radio Roundtable`
may still be on 5130 WBCQ UT Wednesdays 0100-0230, but JBA and can`t
make out any modulation; 6159.9 is on but a JBA carrier probably with
Hal Turner // 7490 tho websked has no such details for 6160 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17775-, June 24 at 1751, KVOH with S9-S8 of dead air; for
what purpose? How about as a propagation beacon of 50 kW when I can`t
hear the other Californian, K6FRC with 1.8 milliwatts on 13565. But by
1913, 17775 achieves some undermodulated music (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, June 24 at 0042, JBA carrier, so I wonder if it
could be 3 x 3945 RV already? Ron Howard has been hearing it earlier
and earlier such as June 23 from 0231, an hour before his beach
sunset, but maybe that`s just when he tuned in. The only other 11835
is CNR2: straight thru from 00 to 13 except siesta break Wednesdays at
06-09 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRIA [or non?]. Re my June 17 log on 5930, Wolfgang Bueschel
replied:

``AUSTRIA/OMAN, BBC London Dari language service towards AFG
noted on June 19th at 0030 UT program start. 5930even via ORS
Moosbrunn Austria relay site, SELDOM SEEN from Moosbrunn: accompanied
by two BUZZ strings either sideband, +/- 100, 200 Hertz BUZZ string
distance visible and heard too. Annoying sound character. Birds chirp
twitter like radioplay program for children heard in Dari language.

S=9+15dB strength at 0030 UT noted in Liverpool, England backlobe.
S=7-8 -80dBm fair backlobe signal in remote Perseus unit at AJ1L in
Massachusetts US state east coast.
S=9+20dB in remote Perseus at Athens Greece at 0038 UT.
S=9+15dB in remote Perseus at Doha Qatar ME.

also 6195even via ENC Encompass Digital Media Services, (ex
Babcock) relay site at Al Seela OMA, S=9+20dB, weak and tiny signals
at Greece, Germany, and Liverpool in England. 73 wb df5sx (June 19 at
00.40 UT)``

So what do you think about this? I cannot tell whether you doubt it`s
really Moosbrunn, rather Oman; or it is Moosbrunn, but defective?
(gh)

``In past decade ORF / ORS Vienna Moosbrunn never went odd fq, and
also not happened at ex Babcock Al Seela Oman. Signal from Oman and
UAE would be very low on Tulsa / Enid target in wild western
Drumpfland.

so I guess: there remains a question mark about the 5930 reception
center origin on that day (wolfie, June 23)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRIA. 9630+, June 23 at 0512, slightly off-frequency LAH from
something, Aparecida, Brasil reactivated? But choral singing sounds
too African. 0514 tonal African language talk interspersed, mentions
Rwanda? Not on at 0620 recheck. Aoki/NDXC shows at 0500-0530 it`s AWR
in Hausa via AUSTRIA. When I measured it, I got 9630.001 or .002, so I
may have made a mistake vs hearing a LAH with BFO on 1-kHz stepping
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 12030, June 23 at 0626, S7-S9 of dead air, the
SSOB as hardly any signals but JBA carriers are audible on the 25m
band. At first thought maybe REE SPAIN testing, as Ivo has reported
them sometimes doing that during off-hours; but no equivalent signals
from anything in Europe. Aoki/NDXC shows at 0600-0629 it`s supposed to
be BBC French via Pinheira. Was the entire semihour silent? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 9830, June 23 at 2200, no signal from VOT today;
altho I do not get around to rechecking later in the hour, since at
2200 my first priority is BBC World News America on PBS/OETA --- but
the feed *into* OETA keeps breaking up; so I switch to World channel,
OETA-2, which runs France 24 news at same time, certainly would be
worthwhile when not eclipsed by simulBBC, except F24 employs a lot of
original languages so you may have to keep an eye on screen all the
time for open captioning translation; even some French is so rapid and
idiomatic that I can hardly follow it. And at 2230 it`s over to CBS
and/or NBC TV News. If I can stay awake having missed an earlier
naptime. But I digressed. Back at 2200 Monday I also quickchecked 9690
to find SPAIN on the air and starting English, but signal less solid
than usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2039 monitoring: confirmed Monday
June 22 from 1800.5 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria, via UTwente SDR; rough
modulation and splash from 7280/7300 inevitable, but no interruptions
noted in spotchex until finale at 1829.5, ``...standard dis---``
claimer cut off, into music fill. I tuned in about 1756 when Iran was
already off but IRRS not yet on. IRRS cut on at *1758 big open carrier
diminishing splash and 7291 RTTY but not eliminating them.
1759 JIP modulation of unknown report in progress about FB and AI
systems; 1800 cut that off for simple IRRS ID, not full sign-on, right
into quick FSN headlines from Washington, and WOR starting in about
one semiminute.

Also confirmed UT Tue June 23 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, VG at UTwente.
Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW

** U S A. 9395, UT Tue June 23 at 0247, WRMI with unknown far-right,
far-Christian talk show interviewing an author. I put up with it
hoping for some program ID, but none heard as it stopped at 0257.5 for
Spanish hymn fill music, 0259.5 WRMI ID, 0300 another (same?) untitled
talk show now about the precarious (?) financial situation of Wells
Fargo.

There is nothing to account for this on the WRMI skedgrids.
Transmission sked shows 9395 with System F before 0300, then System C
= Overcomer. BTW, what I was hearing not // Overcomer or any other
WRMI. The individual System program grids do not show any such thing:
9395 not on System C until 0400; System F only on 5850 before 0300.
System G does show 9395 starting at 0300 with Oldies. Sigh; sadly,
just another example of totally contradictory, incomplete, outofdate
WRMI scheduling info.

That reminds me, I forgot again to check out the new show by that guy
in Perú wanting contact with N American SWLs, `Quorum Radio`, UT
Tuesday 0200-0300 on 5850, but it plays again (or a different
episode?) UT Wednesday 0200-0300 on 5850. I`ve already set an ATS-909
alarum for 0158 and hope I can then remember what`s it for (Glenn

** ANTARCTICA [non]. 9580, June 21 at 2130, JBA carrier from BBCWS
winter solstice special to British Antarctic Survey --- one day late;
this via ASCENSION our best chance here yet totally inadequate; no
point in even checking the others, 5790 and 7360; nor am I by the
computer to tune on remotes, but I know there will be plenty of
reports on the WOR iogroup; and I know I can listen to it later
online, as Richard Langley informs us:

``The program is now available for streaming from the BBC WS site
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct0vz4

What'll you'll notice, apart from the fact that it's in stereo, is
there is a slightly different introduction by Cerys Matthews
mentioning that unlike in the past when the program was only
transmitted on shortwave, this year it is being shared with the BBC's
global audience. The program went out twice in regular BBC WS steams
and may have been aired in regular BBC WS shortwave transmissions on
at least one of these occasions. Also, the "global" version of the
program is only 26.5 minutes long so that it could fit in a normal
broadcast, starting 2 minutes after the bottom of the hour to make
room for the news summary and ending before the promo announcement and
ID at the top of the hour. Somehow trimmed here and there? -- Richard
Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey before 1400* June 22, starting at 1355,
so only concerning the fecund 13 MHz area: 13160 S4-S6; 13130 S5-S8;
13020 S3-S6; 12880 S5-S7; 12870 JBA carrier; 12800 S5-S7 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15730, June 21 at 2239, RHC weekly Sunday Esperanto confirmed
here, weak and distorted via Colombia SDR; so announced sked is
correct for this one only, not the other two. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, June 22 at 1505, CRI Plus, English relay is S9/+20.
bit very undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.940, June 22 at 0555, rather surprised to be hearing
``Hallelujah Chorus`` from Handel`s ``Messiah`` on VON! 0557.6 segué
to usual drums and flute IS before Hausa hour. Back on this frequency
after three nights on 9689.9v or neither (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, June 21 at 2240, VOT is on and so is NSS RTTY as
quickchecked via Colombia SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2039 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday June 22 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, JBA here always weak, vs storm
noise; VG at Maine SDR. Also on WRN satellite webcast.

** U S A. Lacking any FM DX, I at least explore by 10-meter-band
beacons where lower MUFs are operative:

28280-CW, June 21 at 1950, dash and DE K5AB EM01 BEACON CENTRAL TEXAS,
this one inbooming rather than the usual struggle to hear a few watts
or even less. 50 watts is a lot in this context, but sporadic E
propagation must also be ideal. WJ5O roster shows:

``28.280 K5AB C GOLDTHWAITE, TEXAS # 50W, GP VERTICAL Power increase 5
May 16``

https://www.qrz.com/lookup/k5ab
``K5AB USA flag USA Primary only for: K5AB/B
ALAN E BROWN, PO BOX 2, GOLDTHWAITE, TX 76844 USA

Also, there are two CW propagation beacons that are projects of mine.
50.060 MHz and 28.280 MHz are their operating frequencies. The ten
meter beacon has been on-the-air for 25 years. It is a personal
accomplishment for me to build/construct something that serves
others``

Goldthwaite is between Brownwood and Lampasas on US 84, which earlier
traverses my old hometown of Santa Rosa NM. ``Like many other Texas
communities, Goldthwaite was named for a railroad official, Joe C.
Goldthwaite of the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe Railway, who conducted
the auction of town lots.`` -- Wikipedia

Only 553 km = 344 statute miles, city to Enid city.

June 21 around 2000-2030 UT, I`m in the car hunting for sporadic E
after DXMAPs showing favorable 88+ MHz MUFs, but zilch, so back to
primary listening to two favorite programs on 90.1 KUCO-FM, `Wind &
Rhythm` http://www.windandrhythm.com/ and `Feminine Fusion`
https://exchange.prx.org/series/38388-feminine-fusion

At 2130 time for pro-forma check of BBC Antarctic q.v. special, JBA
carrier at best on 9580, so back to 10m dial:

28209-, June 21 at 2128, JBA beacon slightly on minus side. By 2138,
fades up a bit on 28208.8, VVV N8PVL/B, alternating slow and fast WPM
speeds -- I`ll take the slow! Viz.:

``28.2088 N8PVL I LIVONIA, MICHIGAN # 5W, VERTICAL new 12 Feb 2011``

``N8PVL USA flag USA Primary only for: N8PVL/B
Christopher E Francis, Livonia, MI 48154 USA``

Also trace of a beacon on 28271. And:

28290.8, June 21 at 2140, AR AR AR DE K5TLJ/B, Viz.:

``28.2908 K5TLJ C TRUMANN ARKANSAS # 5W, VERTICAL testing 10 Jan 12``

** U S A. 90.1-WBFM, June 22 before 0500 UT, I am trying to listen to
WCPE classical music via KUCO-FM Edmond OK, on one of my household
radios with rod antenna, but increasingly overcome by `Music from the
Hearts of Space` on KHCC 90.1 Hutchinson KS --- another classical
station but unfortunately often a CCI problem here between them. Then
at 0500 KHCC is atop announcing ``ending our broadcast day`` along
with 89.5 and 90.9 satellite stations, and off! at 0501* leaving KUCO
in the clear. Imagine that --- in this day and age a radio station
signing off at local midnight when it does not have to.

** CUBA. 6088-6112, June 21 at 0553, RHC English is undermodulated on
fundamental 6100, yet splashing out to this range, worst peaks around
6091 & 6109. Like sitting on an ice cream cone at Parque Coppelia.
6145 is also undermod. At 0554, 6000 is S9 of dead air, or trace of JB
modulation? At 0551, 5040 still on in wrong language, Spanish.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Sunday June 21 at 1503, RHC weekly Esperanto is
starting, // distorted 15140, via SDR in Maine; also checking whether
15230 still on as it was just before 1500: no. Clueless announcer
still utters wrong sked for own service: Sunday 0800 on 6100, 1600 on
11760 (only), 2230 on 15730. The first one is at 0700 UT during the 8
months of Yanquigusano-imposed DST; you never know which of the 6 MHz
channels will stay on past 0700 for it, if any: last week June 14 it
was 6145 per Wolfgang Bueschel. Third one may be correct, not
confirmed lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [and non]. 9689.9v, June 20 at 0603, VON again here instead
of 7254.9v, S9/+10; so the ham QSO on 7253-LSB has no worries, between
N0KBX in CO and K4NGW? in Oregon:
N0KBX USA flag USA, Thomas Bullock, Wellington, CO 80549
but the other call does not check out. June 21 at 0600, VON not to be
heard on either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28271-, CW, June 21 at 1748, only beacon JB audible is
slightly below 28271, I think N1KO/B --- not on WJ5O beacon roster.
But QRZ.com: ``N1KO USA flag USA Primary only for: N1KO/B, ADAM J M
KERN, Annapolis, MD 21401``

There is one similar beacon supposed to be slightly higher: ``28.2723
N1KON C CENTERVILLE, INDIANA # 5W, VERTICAL testing 1 January 2010``

At 1752, only phone on 10m is a QSO on 28389.80-USB, a W9 with K4LJD
(?) but does not sound like a YL listed.

Of course am looking for clues of sporadic E MUF into the FM band; way
above 100 MHz earlier on the east coast; now at 1924 it`s 120 MHz over
EM12 TX/OK border area but too close to be useful here; maybe later.
Meanwhile thanks to us, there is FM DX between Iowa and Tamaulipas

KCIG(??). Closest fuzzy call, also geographically, is KZIP Amarillo

they flipped or just do wx in English anyway?

This corporate site adds many other stations, both Spanish and
English, but no further linx, no website of its own:

Various streaming services will not connect to KZIP, but one shows it
as a Farm station (in English), probably long outdated; or updated?

broadcasting Trump`s pathetic speech live; don`t know about Tulsa TV
stations, but major OKC ones are too: KFOR, KOCO, KWTV, and a little
late, the Fox affil, KOKH. Meanwhile, as Drumpf started a few minutes
earlier, both CNN and MSNBC were *not* --- rather an SPCA PSA and
general commentary, altho with a split screen on Tulsa. There was no
sign of our beloved Gov. Kevin Stitt, who had previously proudly
proclaimed that he would be unmasked introducing the acting president
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, June 20 at 2201, VOT in English except for NO signal,
while NSS RTTY prevails; recheck at 2248 via UTwente, nothing there
either. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 28236.5-CW, June 20 at 1858, JBA beacon, fading out and
barely in. Monitoring over several minutes I never agglomerate the
entire message, but enough portions: dits --- VVV --- W0KIZ/B ---
COLORADO. Fits with the WJ5O master list:

``28.2365 WØKIZ C DENVER, COLORADO # 5W, 1/2 VERTICAL``

https://www.qrz.com/lookup/w0kiz
``W0KIZ USA flag USA, ROBERT E GOLD, CASTLE ROCK, CO 80104 USA

The second picture is my 10 meter beacon on 28.2365 mhz running about
9 watts with 5 watts to the antenna on my barn. The 5763 final tube is
approaching 80,000 hours of continuous operation. Yes, properly
designed equipment with the correct voltages running ccs operation can
last as long as solid state. This beacon is never disconnected for
lightning.``

The only other one is on 28209 at 1853+, but just too weak to copy
anything. Only four listed on exact frequency, in Hawaii, Ireland,
Texas and New York the last two ``QRT``. Es MUF nowhere above 88 MHz
whenever I check earlier or later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28231-CW, WA4FC/B beacon, 1750 UT June 11, 2020, Prince
George VA, promised P-QSL received June 19, tnx:

** U S A. 17775-, Saturday June 19 at 1506, KVOH is S9/+10 but just
barely modulated; I cannot even recognize whether there be a familiar
voice to be sure it`s `Wavescan` as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 18120-USB, June 20 at 2203, only phone signals on band
are an N4 in Nashville and a WA5 in Texas, neither of whom enunciates
calls clearly vs fading out and in, let alone fonetikaly. No activity
on 11 or 10m with Es MUF barely making it here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
