** BELIZE. 18120-USB, Oct 8 at 2126, QRZs from V31JW with American accent, never saying where he be. Contacts VA7GI and in NW Oklahoma, also audible, W5EIY, who in fact is in Enid: see OKLAHOMA. QRZ.com:
``V31JW Belize James W. Westfall 8505 Bacardi Drive Dallas, TX 75238 USA NT5V will be active from Belize October 5-12, 2019. I will upload all QSO's to LOTW when I get home``. Nowhere any info about *where* in Belize he may be; secret? Is the OSOB on 17m, and zero broadcast signals on 16m [how can 17m be shorter than 16m? Rounding errors?]. He soon closes, ``73 for now`` saying V31CC will soon come up on 30m. That`s another OM from Dallas, NN5E, Vernon H. Berry. They are obviously together, probably sharing rig (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA [and non]. 341 kHz, Oct 9 at 0644 UT, 500 watt ND Beacon dash and YYU still on, a day before decommissioning in Kapuskasing, Ontario; and still no sign of local Enid 25-watter EI. When I get a chance, must visit Woodring Airport to find out the fate of EI. Of course, some beacons are turned on only at certain hours, or when an incoming flight requests (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 335 kHz, Oct 9 at 0645 UT, dash and ND beacon YLD, which is 1000 watts from Chapleau, Ontario, not sked for decommissioning. Seems first time I`ve logged it but Harold Frodge, Michigan has reported it numerous times since at least 2006y. Chapleau is between Timmins and SSM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 336 kHz, Oct 9 at 0646 UT, ND beacon BV with long pauses and no dash, heard while tuned to 335, mixing with YLD, but different pitch of course. Is 100 watts from Quebec City - Champlain per dxinfocentre.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 332 kHz, Oct 9 at 0647 UT, ND beacon dash and QT, 1000 watts from Thunder Bay, Ont., and mixing with IC, Wichita KS, 400 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CANADA. 328 kHz, Oct 9 at 0648 UT, ND beacon dash and YTL, 1000 watts from Big Trout Lake, Ontario. Wikipedia explains: ``Oji-Cree First Nation Reserve --- Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug, also known as Big Trout Lake First Nation or KI for short, is an Oji-Cree First Nation reserve in Northwestern Ontario and is a part of Treaty 9. The community is about 580 km north of Thunder Bay, Ontario. Big Trout Lake is a large lake in Northern Ontario. The Fawn River flows into it from the west and drains it from the east. The reserve of the Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug First Nation, also known as Big Trout Lake, is located on Post Island on the lake's northern shore.`` Logged before, April 1, as in DXLD 19-14: https://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1914.txt A surprise lightning storm around Enid suggests it`s high time I disconnect and QRT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 6100, Oct 9 at 0626 while tuned to q.v. UNIDENTIFIED 2-way on 6095-USB, Morse CQ, CQ overrides out of 6100-AM RHC as `DXers Unlimited` is opening at this odd time instead of nominal :30. Ailing Arnie voice first about Tokelau (spelt) DX-pedition. Ends at 0632 already, into mandatory anti-American segment, `Connecting the Dots` this time about ``Philippine resistance to the American Empire`` (which Cuba missed out on joining, tsk2). // 6165 also with decent signal and modulation for a change; 6000 & 5040 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6923-LSB, Oct 8 at 2340, pirate with classic tunes about Sunshine, 2343 announcement about testing and pausing for replies from any other pirates out there, hello, hello, hello? None. 2344 Johnny Cash song; CQ Radio calling South America, 2347 ID once as ``Anti-Trump Radio``; inviting music requests; 2358 about QSL cards from CQ Radio, says he has been busy but will do SSTV QSL next time he`s on. ``Beam-me-up-Scotty`` with reverb, 2359 ``Good night`` and off. More reports here: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,58957.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 18120-USB, Oct 8 at 2127, ``W5EIY in northwest Oklahoma`` contacting V31JW in BELIZE, q.v. Axually right here in Enid, so I look him up in QRZ.com for the record: ``BILL C NOKES 2802 NIGHTENGALE LANE ENID, OK 73703 USA Hello! My name is Bill, and I have been W5EIY since 1954. I was born in Weatherford, OK, grew up on a farm there, graduated HS in 1957 and headed off to Oklahoma State University for six years to get degrees in Animal Science & Horticulture. After OSU, I moved to Texas for about eight years, then came to Enid in 1973 to look after parents -- both my wife's and my own. After a few years in the banking business I started off on a new career as a sales rep for a nail and air nailer company, covering four states and driving about 5,000 miles a month. In 2012, after 35 years on the road, I retired to have more time to play radio and encourage our eight grandchildren in their sports, music and theatre endeavors. My rig is a Kenwood TS-570S running 80-90 watts. On 40M I use a 33-ft long inverted L. Just 33 feet? Yeah, covenants keep me in the stealth mode. The end-fed wire sneaks up 15 feet vertically alongside my workshop/shack, then runs 18 feet horizontally--never higher than the peak of the wood shake roof. My alternate antenna is a 44-ft end-fed sloper with a 9:1 UnUn. I enjoy both CW and SSB operation, especially late night DX-ing and rag-chewing. Plus, experimenting with simple antennas, including portable ones. With K5ECI, another "Bill in Enid," we are assembling a go-kit around my Alinco DX70TH to use in case of a storm or other emergency -- or even for day-trips to local state parks. Hope to CU soon. Good DX to all! And let's keep pounding that brass. PHOTOS: (UPPER-L) My station is the TS-570S, power supplies Samlex 1223 and MFJ-4225, speaker, HamKey and Speed-X straight keys, and a hand mike. Just the basics, but what great fun! (UPPER-R) SKCC, FISTS, WAC and WAS certificates earned with my peanut whistle set-up. Those deer antlers are from a well-remembered hunting trip with my son when he was ten years old. (LOWER-L) If you have worked another "Bill in Enid," that would probably be K5ECI, on right in the yellow vest. We are at the annual Cherokee Strip parade celebrating the 1893 Land Run with some longhorns right in our hip pockets. (LOWER-R) Mug shot of a proud member of the Enid Amateur Radio Club`` (QRZ.com via gh, Enid, DXLD) ** U S A. 5970, Oct 9 at 0635-0640+, WEWN carrier with no modulation is cutting off and on at an extremely regular pace of 84 times per minute; why? Probably no one around Vandiver to notice in the nightmiddle; or if personned, dozed off. WEWN is a neat source of new anomalies. But we are meanwhile deprived of Spanish Roman Catholicism (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 6095-USB, Oct 9 at 0622, 2-way in English, JBA because of heavy splash from strong 6100 RHC. Why in the world are they here nor at least on LSB which would have been much better? (6090 Anguilla, of course, is absent.) Unseems formal, urgent or military, just random ham-like ragchew. At first only one side audible, then detectable contact (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1634 UT October 9

** CANADA. 15034-USB, Oct 7 at 2050, despite previous log as missing at 1439, CHR is back on and still `no reports received` and distorted (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11850, Oct 7 at 2052, open carrier prior to 2100 RHC transmission, and no sign of Romania English scheduled until 2100; nor on its // 13650 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 6100, Oct 8 at 0556, RHC English at S9+10, but undermodulated; remains best of the sorry lot, as 6165 is JBA carrier, 6000 is S9 but just barely modulated; and 5040 is off already. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5935, Oct 8 at 1315, VG S9+10 signal from Shiokaze in Japanese and piano from JSR; rivals the signal WWCR achieves earlier in the night, despite yesterday`s remark that JSR was JBA. Really good opening from E Asia this morning, and no sign of Tibet CCI; leads me to check on the other more fluid clandestines; see KOREA SOUTH (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA NORTH [non]. 6045, Oct 8 at 1317, amid all the South/North Korean jumbling, also Korean? talk and music mix here no jamming audible; one station or two? Aoki shows: ``6045 1200-1458 TJK National Unity Radio Kor Dushanbe-Ya 1-7`` Dushanbe sunset 1258 UT, so possible grayline but would not expect this much signal from Tajikistan rather than E Asia. Ron Howard replies, ``Yes, after 1200+, I normally have strong reception of National Unity Radio. Some days with strong jamming. Ron`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA SOUTH [and non]. Seems Voice of the People, and Echo of Hope are shifting frequencies, mostly by 5 kHz, from one day to the next to keep the NK jammers alert. My observations October 8 at 1316-1326: VOP: 3480 not 3485; 3910; 6600 not 6595. EOH/VOH: 3985 but a JBA carrier on 3990; 4890 not 4885; 5995 not 5990 but a JBA carrier on 5990; 6350 not 6348; and at 1356, 9105 not 9100. I could also hear noise jamming on: 6350, 6600, 3985, 3910. Note that 4890 was NBC PNG`s flagship frequency should they ever reactivate. Ron Howard had already posted to WOR iog a few hours earlier Oct 8: ``Voice of the People, at 1046+: 3910 // 3480 // 3935 // 4450 // 6525 // 6600. Echo of Hope - VOH, at 1042+: 3985 // 4890 // 5995 // 6255 // 6350 // 9105. Ron`` He has also had much better reception of 9105: ``Hi Glenn, Interesting to note the difference between your location and mine regarding 9105 reception. My audio today of 9105 http://bit.ly/2IxZ9Up At the start and end of the language lesson English/Chinese/Korean?), a singing jingle ("When we arrive, the party will come alive").`` Then Wolfgang Bueschel replied to Ron: ``KOREAs TRACED Oct 8th in Hiroshima and Tokyo SDR's, 1430-1500 UT mostly scratch noise jamming Voice of the People, at 1046+: 3910 // 3480 // 3935 // 4450 // 6525 // 6600: 3479.987 S=9+40dB BUBBLE jamming type instead. 3909.965 S=9+45dB 3934.990 S=9+40dB NOT JAMMED ! 4449.946 S=9+35dB two peak strings visible. 4450even S=9+40dB 6506 to 6522 kHz wideband jamming range. 6524.976 S=9+15dB NOT JAMMED ! 6600even S=9+5dB Echo of Hope - VOH, at 1042+: 3985 // 4890 // 5995 // 6255 // 6350 // 9105: 3985.011 S=9+40dB 4890.003 S=9+10dB NOT JAMMED ! 5982 to 6025 kHz wideband JAMMING range (5995 kHz EoH - VoH not on air 1445 UT) 6246 to 6252 kHz wideband JAMMING range 6255even S=9+5dB EoH - VoH instead ! 6350.036 S=9+15dB 9104.998 S=6, 16 x 50 Hertz distance strings either sideband. 73 wolfie df5sx`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 2097.3, Oct 8 at 0600, no signal detected from beacon A, which used to ID in CW every dekasecond from anywhere but Quartzsite AZ; nor some previous recent chex, as it always used to penetrate even noisy nightpaths. Is anyone still hearing it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2002 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday October 8 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9-S8. Next: 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9475 & 5830, Oct 7 at 2057, WTWW-1 on neither possible frequency; a while ago noted 9475 back on but unlogged. Extremely irregular, more off than on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 5890, UT Tue Oct 8 at 0557, S5-S7 of dead air from WWCR, which seems to happen more often on Tuesdays; about the same level as modulated 5935. Others: 4840 & 3215 both VG, the latter somewhat undermodulated BS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 3325, Oct 8 at 1326, S5-S7 of dead air; should be enough signal to detect modulation if any; more likely Indonesia`s English hour than Bougainville (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 5984.73, Oct 8 before 0100, JBA carrier, cuts off and on as I measure it. Maybe something local; only 5985 scheduled at this time is Myanmar, already a sessquihour after sunrise there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1644 UT October 8

** CANADA. 341 kHz, Oct 7 at 0628 UT, dash and YYU NDB ID, 500 watts from Kapuskasing, Ontario, may be the final time I log it since http://dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm reminds us in red YYU is one of those TO BE DECOMMISSIONED 2019-10-10. I wonder how much the Kapuskasingers will miss it? No sign of Enid`s only beacon EI on 341, not that its weak 25 watts were an obstacle. See also USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 15034-USB, Oct 7 at 1439 and 1601 chex, no signal from CHR. Propagation is fine, with WINB-DRM on 15115-15125 and CHU on 14670. Either it broke down completely, or someone at Trenton Military finally noticed it was totally out of order with ``no report received`` from everywhere, and distorted modulation. EiBi shows sked as 1010-2400 on 15034 and 2310-1100 on 6754, which implies two transmitters but I was hearing exactly the same distortion on 6754; maybe the nominal overlap allowed for variability in QSY times. Presumably supposed to be continuous unlike civilian Gander Radio. Will CHR be repaired and resume receiving reports? For years it has been remarkably unreliable (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 5025, Oct 7 at 0614, no signal from Radio Rebelde which is normally 24h. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 13632 & 13767 approx., Oct 7 at 1354, only traces of RHC spurblobs at first order from 13700; fortunately nothing on second order to QRM 13565 K6FRC, see USA. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 11880, Oct 7 at 1434, CRI Plus English relay is S9+10 but suptorted modulation. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** GERMANY. 15715, Monday Oct 7 at 1357, music and Chinese talk, like CRI might do at this hourpart, VP S3-S6, but no, soon recognizable with gospel harmony, AWR English ID and theme, Voice of Hope, also IDs in French, German (? fade), Italian, English website, next program in Mandarin, and into that. First expected to be from KSDA or somewhere in Asia, yet zero signal from e.g. 15575 South Korea to North America. No, this is 250 kW, 75 degrees from Nauen at 1300-1330 only, in Cmn on weekdays, Uighur on weekends! Hmm, would the ChiCom be less likely to persecute and brainwash Adventist Uyghurs (how many?) than Moslem ones?? It might pay to pretend to be Christian (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** KOREA SOUTH. 9105, Oct 7 at 1435, JBA carrier here instead of 9100 as I start my 9 MHz bandscan --- I bet it`s Echo of Hope in another 5-kHz shift. Yes, Ron Howard has just reported on this and all the others to the WOR iogroup: ``On Oct 7, with some changes in the clandestine frequencies. Voice of the People, at 1044+: 3910 (ex 3905). 3480 (ex 3475). New 3935 (ex 3930). 4450, no change. New 6525 (ex 6520). 6600 (ex 6595). Echo of Hope - VOH, at 1050+: 3985 (ex 3980). New 4890 (ex 4885). 5995 (ex 5990). New 6255 (ex 6250). My audio of the news, at http://bit.ly/30PvImZ 6350 (ex 6348) New 9105 (ex 9100). (Ron Howard, Asilomar State Beach, CA, Etón E1, antenna: 100' long wire, WOR iog via DXLD)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Oct 6 at 1846-1852 UT at least, dead air from KUCO Edmond/OKC, vs occasional breakthrus of modulating KHCC Radio Kansas, Hutchinson (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 341 kHz, Oct 7 at 1323 UT almost an hour after 1232 sunrise, OIN is the only beacon audible on 341, no sign at this hour of YYU in Kapuskasing; see CANADA. OIN is 25 watts from Oberlin KS. No sign either of Enid`s only beacon EI on 341 from Woodring Airport (which has a brand-new manager, terminal building and runways being refurbished as Vance AFB also uses it), not that its weak 25 watts were an obstacle. There are plenty more 341s as yet unheard from Alaska, Greenland, Canada, Mexico and all over Lower 48. I tend to check 341 first on ``LW`` beaconscans. Other regulars nearby are 350 RG from Will RoGers WA in OKC; 255 SW Stillwater; and 515 PN Ponca City which is strongest of all, tho listed only minimum power of 25 watts (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 395 kHz, Oct 7 at 1324, ND beacon CA, which is 25 watts from Newton-Harvs KS. What is Harvs? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 13565, Oct 7 at 1353, K6FRC beacon from CA audible again today after a long spell; sudden new spurt of activity, or suddenly favorable propagation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2002 monitoring: confirmed, Sunday October 6 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, S7-S9. Also confirmed UT Monday October 7 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, S7-S9, after usual Rudy Espinal ID, but then Bob Zanotti tried to ID again, but I cut him off; sorry, Bob! Much stronger S9+10/20 on // WRMI 9395. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 7 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, JBA here, better R4 on UTwente SDR in Holland (and by now 9395 not with WOR has faded out completely to here; SID?) Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 7 from 0301:03 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5129.977, noisy S8-S9; also JBA via UTwente SDR. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 7 at 0330 on WRMI webcast, but it`s horribly distorted! While 9955 is inaudible. Next: 1816 UT Monday IRRS 7290 Romania to WNW 0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE 0800 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW 0830 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 3210-USB NSW [another episode] 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1626 UT Oct 7
