Logs
** AZORES [and non]. 6114, Feb 28 at 0715, RTTY INTRUDER believed to
be US Navy, is back. Not strong and altho abutting 6115 Nikkei Japan,
USB tuning on 6115 escapes it. Lou Johnson, Georgia, keeps complaining
that the RTTY QRMs WWCR after 0100 when it`s on 6115 until 0200. But
WWCR is so blasting here that it would not be a problem in the
unlikely event I ever wanted to listen to it. Still, RTTY, by the USG
no less, has no biz inside the exclusive 49m SWBC band (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Feb 28 at 0229, RHC Spanish is S9+20 but JBM and
suptorted; also with parasitic spur carriers on 11840 & 11860, the
upper one QRMing jamming against nothing (else except maybe Yemen
[non]). Meanwhile, 11760 is S9+20 distorted, 11670 S9+10
undermodulated. Somethings` always wrong at RHC. In the NASWA
Flashsheet, Jerry Lenamon in Waco puts it thus about 15730 QRMing
15720 NZ:

``Only a handful of frequencies in use with over a hundred to choose
from but the Cubans have to infringe. I think the Cubans would be much
better off if they retired half of their transmitters in order to
devote their obviously inadequate budget to the remaining equipment.
I’ve heard it said that the Cuban government pretends to pay their
workers and the workers pretend to work. Perhaps their equipment
problems are a result of this`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN. 7380, Feb 28 at 0234, S9/+10 of dead air - or is it just
barely modulated. Per Aoki and EiBi, can only be VIRI in Arabic via
Zahedan at 0230-0530. HFCC shows 500 kW at 289 degrees for CIRAFs 38 &
39 = Arabia to Turkey, Egypt, Libya (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 5990 // 7410, UT Mon Feb 28 at 0239, lite jazz during the
RRI Galbeni hour in French. Alan Roe`s Music on Shortwave says it`s
`Les tubes du moment` on UT Mon & Tue while the 0230-0245 block
contains other music every day except Fri. Tubes means hits in this
sense, pour quoi? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15740, Feb 28 at 1921, S9+10 of open carrier. Obviously SOP
from VOA Grimesland, warming up on a frequency other than the one
about to start, i.e. 15730 JBA already in French from another site, in
order to avoid override/collision. At 1929.5 the OC jumps to 15730 and
Botswana probably just turned off. 1930 JIP music in French service;
pause, cut to news about Ukraine. Same signal level as was on 15740.
Rationale for making site switch in middle of French hour remains
unknown.

BTW, Mike Cooper reports:

``VOA English has a new program, "Flashpoint Ukraine," airing at 2105
UT weekdays. Here is the description from today's schedule:

16:05 - 16:30 [EST] FLASHPOINT UKRAINE: Russia and Ukraine hold talks
as U.N. meets --- Ukraine demanded an immediate cease-fire and the
withdrawal of Russian forces as it met with Russia. How the current
war is impacting Europe and the plight of refugees as they struggle to
cross the border to escape fighting.

Episodes can be found here:
https://www.voanews.com/z/6932
There is also an Apple podcast page:
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/flashpoint-ukraine-voice-of-america/id1610018620
Presenter: Steve Miller``

Fortunately, 2105 is the only hour in English still transmitted from
North Carolina, on 11720 as long as B21 lasts, and VG here off the
back to mid-America, aimed away toward Africa. Only other English SW
frequency registered this hour is 6195 São Tomé. Otherwise, VOA has
been getting low ratings for its breaking news coverage. This hour had
been `wasted` on rock/African music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
February 27 at 2101 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+10, no QRM but
noisy, via nearby Noale SDR.

Missed checking Sun Feb 27 at 2330 on WRMI 5950; anyone hear it?

Confirmed UT Monday February 28 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S9+15 into
Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed at 0256 UT Mon Feb 28 the 0230 on WRN N America
webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 28 at 0425, S9/S7 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160
minus 28v Hz into Knoxville = 6159.972v, just as I am mentioning the
`Taste of Radio Angela` which is on 4790 right now and have mainly
been monitoring, WOR ending at 0429 so must have started on time.

Next:
0130 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW [NEW]
2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?]
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702, USA (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** U S A. 4790, UT Mon Feb 28 at 0300, WBCQ has signed on after IS &
ID loop, initiating `Radio Angela`, with intro `A taste of` show.
S9/+10 fading up and down and constant CODAR swishes covering from
above and below, so it`s unpleasant listening direct to here. First
part is about classical music which will be the entire 03-05 program
henceforth on UT Mondays: unfortunately at same time as `Encore`! on
WRMI 5950 at 0300-0400 - which tonight I have recorded off an SDR for
later listening. By 0314 we hear Marion from her Attic; 0339 Radio
Ohne Namen, etc., etc.

Radio Angela is deliberately not being webcast, as the point is to
promote music and drama on SW. But I`ll have to use remotes further
east to avoid the CODAR. Is WBCQ stuck on this 60mb frequency, no
matter what? They are certainly aware of the CODAR. With perhaps the
most innovative programming in store, yet by any objective standard,
it`s WBCQ`s worst frequency; as long as 3265 is not even active: least
coverage reach and facing most noise level which will only worsen into
spring and summer storm seasons.

The detailed convoluted Radio Angela schedule for the remainder of
Standard Time is to be distributed shortly by Bill Tilford, but still
not showing at wbcq.com which displays nothing but Brother Scare on
4790, despite being withdrawn weeks ago. An advance look for the first
night, UT Tuesday March 1: 0300 `Marion`s Attic`; 0400 `Bluegrass
State of Mind` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Mon Feb 28 at 1540, something in Spanish, a clip
inside AWR Wavescan on WRMI. Since WOR was replaced on Fri at 1530, I
was wondering whether other shows in the DX/media strip were also
affected; but not, still there among some three dozen weekly WS
airings on WRMI. Next on Tue: SW Radiogram beepery (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sun Feb 27 at 1614, RHC weekly Esperanto is JBA, S7-S9
undermodulated; seems // 11760 much stronger S9+10 but distorted.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ETHIOPIA [non]. 15330, Feb 27 at 1613, HOA music, talk, S8-S9; EiBi
says it`s Radiyoni Dirree Shaggar at 1600-1630 in Somali via FRANCE,
but WRTH 2022 has Raadiyoonii Dirree Shaggar from Pennsylvania via
France in OROMO. I was in the area looking for TOMBS cult via Bulgaria
on new 15335, reported by Ivo as of Feb 19 at 1500-1800 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 15460.072, Feb 27 at 1616, African language
dialog, S6-S9, way off frequency, since it`s VOA Pinheira, in Kirundi
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Feb 27 at 0740 UT, TOR, 50-watt non-direxional
beacon at Torrington, Wyoming, under but mixing with FBY, 25 watts at
Fairbury, Nebraska, which is one of my regulars. I would say that
despite being only second-adjacent, NE is my #1 state for NDBs. WY is
also 2nd-adjacent, only CO between us. Torrington is conveniently in
the SE corner, near Scottsbluff NE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs
** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer search, Feb 27 at 0022: 13130 S4-S6 with
flutter; 13020 JBA Chinese. NO others detected below 15, 14, 13 or 11
MHz, but some suspicious inside 22m band, not trying to sort them out
from legits (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, Feb 27 at 0018, S9+25 of dead air in English from RHC.
At 0019 other frequencies in music all // presumably Spanish service:
13740 S9+5, 11760, 11860 JBM S9/+15. By 0046, 5040 is modulating but
// same plus 9650, so Spanish not English on both 5040 & 13740.
Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5990, Feb 27 at 0041, CRI relay in Spanish is S9+35/45 but
just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 9590, Feb 27 at 0034 poor in Latin American Spanish
with soft background music. Not a bit of Chinese accent, just like CRI
English which sounds as if it`s American - until you hear what they
are saying. This does mention China. Scheduled 2300-0257 for S America
via Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and
other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** THAILAND. 13750, Feb 27 at 0020, HSK9 in English to N America,
S4-S7 with heavy flutter. Seldom if ever listenable here: too far west
for the ENAm beam, too far east for the WNAm? Grimesland would do a
lot better, duh, than the USAGM Udon Thani site (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Feb 26 at 2337 dipping into the VOT English
Saturday broadcast, which is not off the air, VG via UTwente with a
recipe; but TRT`s AVC surges annoying background hum during pauses.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. 2341 Turkish Cuisine; 2347
multi-lingual ID loop filler. Off in time for weekly Sunday The Mighty
KBC from 2400 via Nauen, Germany ex-East; over there a bit of QRM from
the ChiCom in East Turkistan but probably not so much over here (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12888.5 CW, Feb 27 at 0024, VVV marker from KPH with QSX
frequencies. VG standout signal from California, with hardly anything
else left on this marine band. Maybe Korea South but not heard now
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. I`m told the Friday morning airing of WORLD OF
RADIO on WRMI 9955, which was missing Feb 25 at 1530, will resume
after DST starts, March 18 at 1430 UT instead.

WORLD OF RADIO 2127 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday February 27 at
0030 on WRMI 7730, S9+25/30 direct but not ``solid`` sounding.

Also confirmed UT Sunday Feb 27 starting at 0454.7 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
Wentzville MO, VG S9+12 into nearby Warrenton SDR. Next:

** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Feb 27 after 0100, WTWW-2 $ tereo webcast of
TOUTA, but music at tune in is only mono; ends at 0150, into rock.
`Encore` missing at 0100 from WRMI System F on 5850 & 7780 due to some
mishap, so default to `TOUTA` no problem except I`m also missing TRSW
blues shows on 5950 in the Saturday evening music glut. Better luck we
hope for next `Encore` UT Monday 0300 on 5950 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. +6100-6130+, Feb 27 at 0044, WWCR is splattering more than
15 kHz either side of S9+50 6115. Something`s noxious in Nashville.

Not to mention America`s most obnoxious SW broadcaster, Alex Jones,
about whom CNN has been promoting this:

CNN Special Report CNNHD - Sun, 2/27, 9:00 PM [CST] 1 hr
"The Alex Jones Story: Megaphone for Conspiracy"
New, 2/27/2022, News, Topical, Current Events
CNN's Drew Griffin examines the rise of conspiracy theorist Alex
Jones, drawing on exclusive footage and interviews with former
employees and followers to track how his rhetoric moved from the
fringes to the mainstream of American politics`` --- Mainstream? Let`s
not concede that to him! Original time and known repeats, here
strictly UT dates and times: Mon Feb 28 at 0300 & 0700, Sat March 5 at
0200 --- maybe: all subject to bumping for Breaking News. I wonder if
the show will ever even mention SW? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Feb 27 at 0320, no signal from WRNO into Missouri SDR.
I kept intending to recheck since first noticed absent Feb 18 at 0722,
and I can`t find any reports of 7505 since (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6017.10, Feb 27 at 0042, JBA carrier, not a local
birdie. Probably that Colombian pirate, as in EiBi but not Aoki:
``6017 2230-0615 irr CLM Organ. Radial El Prado S CLM``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6920-, Feb 27 at 0015, only pirate activity is JBA music
slightly on low side, signature of R. Pushka (Rifle), the Russian
ethnic pirate. Slightly better at 0045, S6 of undermodulated music
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9560.4, Feb 27 at 0032, JBA talk in Asian? language but
then disappears. Unseems spur out of strong 9565 Martí, and no match
on 9569.6. Sked per Aoki on 9560 until 0030 is BBC English via
Singapore; and at 00-01 CRI English via Beijing 572: neither seems
likely. But wait: EiBi says the BBC language is Burmese (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

Logs
Note: last report was for Feb 25-26 not 26-26 as missubjected

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Feb 26 at 1523, no signal from LRA36
into four Brasilian SDRs this Saturday, probably no-show, tho it might
have come and gone by now, usually at least until 1530. Have seen no
other reports of it today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9666.728, Feb 26 at 0737, R Voz Missionária back on
tonight, S9-S6 but usual VG modulation with songs that sound more
secular than sacred without being able to follow the lyrix. Very slow
upward drifting trend continues. Last time I measured it was Feb 1 on
9666.561, or plus 6.68 Hz per diem on average, but it has not been
steady (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9700, Feb 26 at 0735, RHC English still on here at
S9+30 but no others. Even 5040 is off by 0742 leaving a JBA carrier,
presumably Vanuatu. Something`s always wrong wRHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. Feb 26 I have spent several hours monitoring
remotes for Dengê Welat and/or jamming.

9525 at 0504 via UTwente, S7-S9, martial music jammer like yesterday
when it cut off at 0530* but today keeps going until 0600*. DW itself
is again on 7350.

11530 at 1525 via UTw: jammer with same kind of martial music as last
nights; while DW programming is on 11540, with some BBC-like sounders.
At 1547 a brief clip in English. Off at 1559*.

9525 retuned to and at *1600 it seems to be just coming on with DW
music and talk. 11530 via UTw still jamming against nothing with
wailing and music, but off at 1608*.

Meanwhile recheck the skeds to get bearings, but neither seems correct
today:

EiBi as of Feb 16: DW 11530 at 06-17 via Moldova, 17-19 France. Jammer
11530 at 06-19 via Emirler, but also ``anti-Kurdish tape`` at 06-16 on
11540. Also earlier: 7350 at 0330-0600 DW via France.

Aoki as of Feb 23: DW 7350 via France at 0330-0558, no jam; 9525
France 1558-2200 with jamming at 05-21. 11530 at 13-15 Moldova, 15-16
France, no jam. 11540 Moldova at 06-13, no jam listed.

Observer Bulgaria had new DW relays via Secretbrod/Kostinbrod as of
Feb 23, but none of these heard on Feb 26: 07-14 15285 unchecked,
14-17 9480, 17-19 9550, 19-22 6180; 22-24 5945.

Back to what I do hear:

9525 at 1614, S8-S9 to Ireland SDR; 1630 abrupt switch from music to
talk; more music past 1700. It`s notable that in all my hours of
listening I never perceive a Dengê Welat ID or even mention in passing
of either word, tho possibly somewhere in there and missed. I do hear
Ukraine mentioned occasionally.

11530, at 1702, jam music against nothing via Ireland

9550, at 1709, no Bulgarian signal to Ireland.

9525 at 1730+, DW music via UTwente; occasional brief OTH radar clix
such as at 1735, 1747, 1802, 1952.

9525 at 1739, I am shocked to hear the VOT interval signal tune, so is
this really Turkey instead of DW? But this is a different version of
the song with vocal lyrix.

11530 at 1741, jammer still on with music, crowd yelling. 1802 during
martial music, speech over PA with reverb; heard via Ireland

9525 music before and after 1800 but YL talk at 1802. UTw stops at
1830 but I reboot as it had displayed 900 instead of max 750 users.
1835-1928 UT, I`m out paying exorbitant ever-rising cost of PO Box;
and lunch.

UTwente now displays around 1460 users, constantly fluxuating.

9525 at 1928, DW music still via UTw.

11530 at 1929, jammer is now off into Ireland; nor on 11540.

6180 at 1933, another Bulgarian frequency absent into Ireland. Also at
2045, nor 9480 which I think I also checked earlier.

9525 at 1935, Ireland now hears both DW and JBA under, the jammmusic,
finally on same frequency; but at UTw the two are mixing almost even
level. Quite a cacophony at 2055 with both in music, but by 2105 only
one is left on both remotes, I think DW.

At 2202, via UTw, no activity on any of the mentioned DW or jammer
frequencies, not even 5945 Bulgaria.

Now UTwente shows ~1700 users! Must have expanded its capacity with
huge demand thanks to Putin. Unfortunately there is no SWBC, let alone
in English, from Ukraine or Russia, but one can try to hear MW such as
400 kW UR1 on 549. As discussed in the WOR iog, Ukrainian TV and radio
can be accessed online. Previously scheduled English segments seem to
have been suspended (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
