** OKLAHOMA. ``Glenn, regarding your call sign confusion for KTSB 1170 in Tulsa (ex-KVOO/KFAQ): The station has requested, and been granted, another call change to KOTV effective June 26, 2024.
https://enterpriseefiling.fcc.gov/dataentry/views/public/amDraftCopy?displayType=html&appKey=25076f918fa77ea8018fc0000e7c0f62&id=25076f918fa77ea8018fc0000e7c0f62&goBack=N Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` Incredible - that`s Griffin`s channel ``6`` TV in Tulsa, KOTV = so ``KOTV Radio`` or ``KOTV-AM`` ?? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WORLD OF RADIO 2246) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, June 6 at 0503 UT, solid reception of KTEN Ada, 10-1, totally overriding local Enid 3ABN satellator K17JN-D - unless it`s off. Last few days of heavy tropo have had it BAD or breaking up due to DX QRM. 10-2 is KTEN-CW, 10-3 KTENABC. 10-1 is NBC // KFOR. Back in the analog days, KTEN was also affiliated with both NBC and ABC, but with one channel had to pick one or the other at any given time, especially prime. In minor ``market`` with Ardmore`s KXII-TV with both CBS and NBC, IRRC. Most of the other ``open`` channels show BAD signals now: 10, 11, 12, 14, 20, 21, 22, 26, 31, 34, 35, 36. While the only other decoding is RF28 Ion 44-1 from Tulsa market (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

** COLOMBIA [and non]. 28470 USB, June 5 at 2210, Hawaiian station speaking Spanish, did not get call, but contacting HJ3ESF who went on to contact several Mainland US stations such as N9UU. Said he was on an island near or in Colombia, but did not catch that either. QRZ.com rather only shows mailing address: ``HJ3ESF Colombia flag Colombia, Munir Saab, 20976 Sheridan St, Fortlauderdale, FL 33332, USA`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SAUDI ARABIA. ```Hi Glenn - Rob Wagner (Australia) has also been doing considerable monitoring of 11935. Ron Howard https://medxr.blogspot.com/2024/06/11935-khz-strange-goings-on.html Today's update of his monitoring: ``UPDATE (June 4, 2024 @0409 UTC) --- Today, Radio San'na signed on again at 04:00:30 UTC with a strong signal plus buzzing. The buzzing started at EXACTLY the same time as the station. The chances of jamming starting at exactly the same time as the transmission are extremely low. This seems to indicate to me that this is, indeed, an intermittent transmitter fault. 73 and wishing you good, buzz-free DX!! Rob Wagner VK3BVW````` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Wed June 5 at 2200, token English from SNR, S9+20/30 direct, also 15520, S9/+10; weaker but audible on 17715 and detectable on 15390. Both Amy & Marilyn hostessing, preview about Madrid Book Fair; 2202 right into that skipping any news (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.010, June 5 at 2203, VOT English not off the air, S9/+10 direct but not enough vs local line noise level. 2228 check into UTwente when measured, S9+45/50, `The Middle East and Turkey`, mentioning Iraq; 2234 music; 2238 `Sports Panorama`; 2245 music; 2253 s/off ignoring SW; 2254 six notes of IS before chopped off, no finesse. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Finally some 10m beacons, including regular K6FRC on 28300 CW, June 5 at 2159: 28244 CW, EEEEEEE DE WA6APQ/B CA. WGB list: ``28244 WA6APQ/BCN - Long Beach CA USA DM03vu - #0 (06 Feb 2024) Note: WA6APQ/BCN EEE - Pwr 30w`` QRZ.com: ``WA6APQ USA flag USA, DEWEY MYERS, 2903 Monogram Ave, LONG BEACH, CA 90815.

** ALGERIA. 17600, June 4 at 1840, checking Ifrikya FM for a floating English segment but just music. Inadequate signal from Béchar into UTwente, and Maryland SDR, so I pick the only Kiwi close to the boresight, TWR Kenya: shows 17599.902, but I think it`s miscalibrated, since UTwente puts it on 17599.997 at the least; TWR also gets a squeal inaudible elsewhere so suspect receiver or Nairobi-area problem, not transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND [and non]. 28228 CW, June 4 at 2203, only 10m beacon is JBA, usually fading when it comes to ID after EEEEEEE DE ---, but finally conclude it`s ZL3TEN, as recently also logged, as per WGB list: ``28228 ZL3TEN - Rolleston, Christchurch NZL RE66ej - #0 (09 Jan 2024) Note: ID + grid + eee`` -- and not to be confused partially with another TEN right next to him: ``28228.3 TG9TEN/B - Guatemala City GTM EK44mv - #0 (16 Mar 2024) Note: ID + grid - HTX 100 1w into A99 vertical`` Only other sig on 10m was someone calling CQ in English on 28460 USB, but not back in ~4 minutes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Correxion: I recently referred to 1170 Tulsa as KFAQ, in connexion with IBOQRM to 1160 KSL. Shows you how much I listen to/care about that station, format now silly Fox sports. FCC info on call sign history with Begin Date: KTSB 09/06/2021, KFAQ 05/10/2002, originally KVOO from 1926. I think Voice of Oklahoma was much neater, stupid of them to ditch it. KVOO still not assigned to any AM station (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** ROMANIA. 13650, June 4 at 2053, English about film awards, S9/+20, soon RRI sounder and s/off this 2030 to WEu/ENAm, next broadcast at 2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, June 4 at 1650, no horrible noise blob, but Arabic, VP S6/S7 into UTwente, presumed Rep. of Yemen Radio service via Riyadh, but with heavy ACI from 11940 CRI English this hour only by Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN, std. denunciation, S9+15/20. LSB tuning helps but still bothering. ACI gone by 1700 but now I hear some CCI noise under 11935, not the roaring sound when strong and alone. By 1728 Qur`an in clear, S9+15/20; 1820 still clear, S9+10/20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Monday June 3 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG direct, and good enough on 15520 while 15390 & 17715 are JBA but confirmable. Again today, only Marilyn Quintana, guess Amy Egan vacationing? Nothing like Turkey but MQ does have an accent unlike Amy. Top news is PM Sánchez facing no-confidence vote. Interview checked at 2210, something about getting medical/health advice via audiovisual means. The podcast is titled: ``Innovative entrepreneurship: AI at the service of society`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 3 at 2200, JBA carrier direct, but a few minutes later nothing at all from VOT English. Nor on accidental alternates 11795, 9875. Ditto by 2220 check of UTwente. Something`s erroneous at Emirler. Nothing else listed on 11785 around this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 4 at 2157, VOT IS & IDs in English, not off the air today, S9+10/20 direct but vs S8/S9 high local line noise. 2200 accurate timesignal; s/on mentions `Review of the Turkish Press` after news [sic] but no specific segments after that besides music. 2233 I`ve switched to UTwente, S9+40/50 as Ms Badax is reading `Weekly Commentary` as shortly outroed at 2236, music. 2240 `Turkey`s Geomarked [sic] Products` about some cream from processing milk, no further into cheese, it seems. 2242 music. 2247 `ABYS`. 2248 music. 2253 s/off with no mention of SW. 2253.5 IS. 2256 restart IS with German IDs to 2257*. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2245 monitoring: confirmed Monday June 3 at 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, into UTwente: 3975.003 S9+7 and 6160.001, S9/+10. Missed checking UT Tuesday June 4 at 0330 on WRMI 7780; anyone hear it? Sked shows Wavescan but WOR has been showing usually. Confirmed Tuesday June 4 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, VP S8/S9 direct. Next: 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 28262 CW, June 3 at 2207, JBA beacon with long dash and VVV but can`t copy the call thru several repetitions. Another one on 28282. Only other 10m sig is Brazuguese on 28410 USB. Long time since 10m has been replete with beacons, despite Es MUFs allegedly way above it. Per WGB beacon list, 28262 likely VK2RSY Sydney NSW which I had logged recently including a 30-second carrier = dash (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2313 UT June 4

** CHAD [non]. 15505, June 3 at 0618, S7/S8 in very heavily accented French. It`s R. Ndarason Internationale via Woofferton UKQOGBANI this hour, per EiBi and the following hour via Ascension. WRTH 2024 page 578 shows languages used are Kanuri/Kanembu/French without any specific times. Editors who insist on deleting any of my [non] headers, also delete the context and very raison-d`être for such stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sun June 2 at 2220, VOT English not off the air, VG into UTwente with TRTWorld promo, and `Weekly Commentary` about Rafah, etc., written by John somebody but read by Ms Badax, mentions ``Israel commits genocide``. 2226 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo. 2227 `The Letterbox Programmme`, mostly QSL requests from: New Delhi regular, China-no name?, David Ansell? England, Japan, China, India. 2242 time`s up so must play mandatory never identified song; THEN 2246 L`Box outro; ``always-by-your-side`` promo, song. 2251 headlines by Ms Badax. 2253 her s/off as if the 1230 on 17620. 2254 IS. 2256 restart IS with German IDs, to 2259*. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2245 monitoring: Also confirmed Sunday June 2 from 1903, new time on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+15/20 into nearby Noale SDR. Following 3-minute Verdi theme at 1900. And now THIS WOR is chopped short by 2 minutes so VOA news can air at 1930! Then at 1935, 16 Gwendolyn Street. A 29-minute program is never going to fit into a 27-minute slot! Without a speedup? Surely a way could be arranged to carry the whole program {this edited version replaces original}. Also confirmed Sunday June 2 at 2000 on WRMI webcast only and WRN Europe stream. Also confirmed Sunday June 2 at 2130 on Shortwave Gold/Radio, Germany, into UTwente, S9+20/25 on 6160.002, S9+15/20 on 3975.003. Missed checking the new Sunday 2330 June 2 on WRMI 7570; anyone hear it? Also confirmed UT Monday June 3 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR. Confirmed UT Monday June 3 at 0300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -70 Hz = 6159.930, S8/9+5 into Maryland SDR. At least once during program and shortly after 0329 finish, overriding noise blasts. Not sure whether external QRM or something internal. Confirmed Monday June 3 at 1737 so would have started about 1730 UT on SatZentrale webcast via https://www.satzentrale.de/technikradio/sendeplan.shtml On the sked of this substation, WOR not mentioned but part of ``MONTAG 19 Uhr [MESZ]: Technikradio - Kurzwellenecke (deutsch/englisch)`` WOR however is shown on this page also with Play link: https://www.satzentrale.de/technikradio/programm.shtml And no other time during the week but this is a 2-hour block so WOR might appear at 1700, 1800 or 1830 UT? Next: 1930 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW [irregular?]; 1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast; jammed?]; 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated. Thanks this week to Doug Brown, London, Ont., for a generous check in US$ on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15150, Monday June 3 at 0615, S9+20 of dead air, obviously WMLK which attempts to broadcast toward Europe overnight, except on UT Sabbathdays; much stronger here than usual, ironically, and still dead at 0704, tsk2. I guess no one be awake at Bethel and monitoring own output. What would DEJOM say? Wolfgang Bueschel also reports, via remotes: ``15150even USA WMLK from Bethel PA state, S=9+20dB strong signal, but only carrier seen on screen. No audio program content at this hour, 0425 UT on June 3. Slight 120 Hertz buzz tone audio noted and seen on screen too`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330, June 3 at 0622, World`s Last Chance Radio, nonsense facilitated by WBCQ, not in usual exaggerated British accent, but American, pseudo-scientific wacko explanation of how the Earth has to be flat, by shooting lasers across the oceans, etc. People are being ``indoctrinated with globalism``. Really laughable, but how many credulous listeners may he convince? Leading them into a life of delusions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1911 UT June 3
