** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, May 18 at 1443 tune-in via Campo Brasil
SDR, LRA36 is already on with music; 1453 song with whistling; 1500
sign-on with multilingual IDs including English to tell us it`s in
Spanish. 1502 all-female staff named by a male, ``Nacional, La Radio
Publica``; Esperanza/Antártida themesong. 1505 YL talking; 1507
temperatura máxima; 1508 exact geographical coordinates. 1509 contact
info of phone numbers, whatsaap, gmail, instagram, fb; streaming via
radio nacional, frequencies 15476 and FM 96.7 [NOT 97.6, a mixup which
keeps getting quoted, published]; 1512 song, 1514 siren.

At 1525 for the record I attempt to detect it direct on the R75 with
30m E/W longwire: less than imagination level JBA carrier; if it were
full rather than reduced -- what %? -- it might have a chance vs the S7
local line noise level in AM tuning. Next I switch to the LU1 SDR: 1536
ID, frequencies; 1545 full ID; still on past 1602, 1618+ with music but
apparently off, no longer heard from 1621 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9780-9835, May 18 at 0632, approx. range of jamming splatter
out of peak 9805 = S9 against nothing as R. Martí is never on 9805 at
this hour, in fact on no SW frequencies at all in 0600/1000 break.
Something`s very wrong at the incompetent DentroCuban Jamming Command
where they also do not give a damn about collateral damage (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440v, May 18 at 2225, NO signal today of R. Cairo English
into UTwente. Nor circa 9900 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed May 18 at 2210, token English from REE, today`s
feature with Amy Egan about the Eurovision Song Contest won by Ukraine,
also with other entries such as Spain`s. VG into Maryland SDR (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, May 18 at 2225, VOT English, S9+40 into UTwente
with some hum, just concluding the `Feeling Supreme` theme (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2138 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
May 17 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, S9/+20 into Maryland SDR and no jamming
audible; also have UTwente running way outside target area and no
signal there, just clicking. At 2258 direct, 9955 is S9+10/20 and
jamming is building for the 2300 Radio Libertad until 2400: but at 2325
fill music is playing.

WOR also confirmed at new time of Tuesday May 17 at 2330 on WRMI 9395,
S9+5/20 into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday May 18 at approx. 2100:21 on WBCQ 7490v, S7/S9
into Maryland SDR minus 70 Hz = 7489.93. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to WNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 9395 to NNW

** U S A. Slight correxions to 5130 Radio Angela report May 17: [...]
At 0200 starts `Marion`s Attic`. We have now escaped CODAR QRM and the
uteblaaps! No QRM to 5130, but still some storm crashes inevitably in
spring/summer. Yet listenable, and better than the original 7490v
airing too early direct at 21 UT Sundays. 0300 next show is `Bluegrass
State of Mind`. Or, is it ``Mine``? 5130 ex-4790 of course also applies
to WORLD OF RADIO at 0400 UT Saturdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 10124 USB, May 17 at 0628, ragchew hamnet of Oz accents,
more unID VKs in the Aussie-only phone subband on 29 m, 10120-10135
kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9667.177V, May 17 at 0635, RVM music, carrier wobbling
audibly but still exceeding 9667 from nominal 9665 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13680, May 17 at 2001, RHC theme JBA and sounds like
Portuguese/Brasilian. This frequency is still missing from EiBi and
Aoki tho I reported it some time ago. Is anyone paying attention?

15140, May 17 at 2002, RHC definitely in Brazuguese, S6/S8 but not //
13680. Maybe two separate playouts. Aoki is way out of date, still
showing winter timing for English on 15140 at 2000-2100. EiBi on 15140
at 2000-2030 shows French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, May 17 at 2201, R. Cairo still in extremely
distorted English, plus hum S9+30/40 into UTwente. As Alan Holder
quipped, ``something`s always amiss at Abis``, but that does not do
this justice; rather, ``egregious in Egypt`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SRI LANKA. Correxion to typo in frequency as ``15709.079``! Delete
original report and replace with:
15709.979, May 16 at 1447, JBA carrier. Scheduled is AWR Chinese via
Trincomalee on ``15710`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Russia`s war, `Ukraine: Security Issue` in English (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. ``Glenn, the WRMI spurspikes below 9455 have been going on
for at least a couple of weeks. I can hear them well up to 150 kHz
below fundamental when reception is good. One night they pretty much
ruined otherwise decent reception of BBCWS via SMG at 0500 on 9410.
Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` as of May 13. Also, typo in my report
as ``9355`` instead of correct 9335, spurs heard even next to WBCQ
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15770, Tue May 17 at 1930, VOA News via WRMI, and 1935
`Flashpoint: Ukraine` dated today, not Mon May 16 edition which got
lost, since 72-hour-previous Fri May 13 edition played yesterday.
S9/+10 into Maryland SDR. But followed by another anomaly at 2000,
faux-time-signal and VORW, John claiming it be Sunday May 15 on 5850
doing a full new show tho did not feel well (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5130, May 17 at *0155, WBCQ IS & ID loop, just reactivated
for first time, ex-4790 for Radio Angela. S9/+5 into Maryland SDR
reading -22 Hz = 5129.978 as every Classic `BCQ frequency must be at
least slightly askew. At 0200 starts `Marion`s Attic`. We have now
escaped CODAR QRM and the uteblaaps! No QRM to 5130, but still some
storm crashes inevitably in spring/summer. Yet listenable, and better
than the original 7490v airing too early at 21 UT Fridays. 0300 next
show is `Bluegrass State of Mind`. Or, is it ``Mine``? 5130 ex-4790 of
course also applies to WORLD OF RADIO at 0400 UT Saturdays.

4790, from 0343 I inspect the ex-frequency via same remote: the
uteblaaps are still there visible on waterfall and/or audible, once a
minute near :00 and also near :42 past each minute. One at a time, in
three different positions: below, right on, or above, 4790. They too
are now free of WBCQRM - you`re welcome (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, May 17 at 0145, NO signal from WRNO which nominally
starts at 0100. Also missing last night. Previous report to the WOR
iog:

``7505even, ONLY EMPTY CARRIER of WRNO New Orleans at 1234 UT on May

WRNO is missing from their usual 7505 frequency. Walt`` Salmaniw, BC,
