** CHINA. 11640, April 21 at 1333, CNR1 with Sunday-evening cultural
show playing contemporary Western classical orchestral music, S7-S9
with flutter // 11785. Aoki/NDXC pinpoints site for this 11640 jamming
as Kashi-Saiba in EAST TURKISTAN, 10-14 scheduling matching that of
Radio Taiwan International in Chinese on 11640 (which I am not hearing
at all). Kashi/Kashgar of course also radiates countless
``legitimate`` CRI transmissions.

11440, April 21 at 1330, very poor mix of two carriers, seems matching
11785, i.e. CNR1 jamming as per Aoki/NDXC, vs Sound of Hope via Maoli
site, Taiwan.

10960, April 21 at 1336, JBA music. Aoki/NDXC has this as a Sound of
Hope relay of RFA during long hours in Chinese, from Pingtung, Taiwan
site, rather than Maoli for many others of SOH iself; but this could
more likely also be CNR1 jammer.

In a complete bandscan from 10.9 to 15.0 MHz, these two are the only
WOOB jam frequencies found (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 12000, April 21 at 1314, RHC music at S4-S5 on this second
harmonic of 6000 which is S9/S9+10. Wolfgang Bueschel points out that
when 11700 and 11850 are both on the air, 2200-0500, they can produce
a leapfrog mixing product on 12000. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
In the past, 12000 has also been an intentional fundamental of RHC,
but not currently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15230, April 21 at 1317, RHC is JBM here, while 15140 is OK.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6965-USB, April 21 at 0030, songs at S9+10, and at
0032 as expected, ``Wolverine Radio`` ID, still going past 0100+. Many
more logs here covering 0015-0121:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,53129.0.html
Not so obvious theme tonight seems to be ``vocal expression``, ending
with SSTV image of girl whispering into another`s ear (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UKRAINE [non]. Answer to my query about the RUI announcer: ``Hi
Glenn, The male announcer you refer to is, I believe, Andrew Bondar
http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/en/prog-presenter.html?id=183
(Alan Roe, Teddington, UK, WOR iog via DXLD)``

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1978 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday April 21 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG S9+30. Also confirmed UT Sun
Apr 21 at 0327 about 4 minutes into, so started circa 0323 on WA0RCR,

** U S A. I missed this week`s AWWW on WBCQ, UT Sat Apr 20 at 0000 UT,
but John Carver fills us in:

``Tonight's show started on time on 7490 after some dead air and fill
music. Allan and Angela in the studio talking about the IRS. First
phone call at 0005 followed immediately by a call from Dave in Indiana
at 0007 continuing the discussion about the IRS. Allan maintains that
the IRS is illegal and wasn't ratified by all the states. Allan is a
little riled up this evening and goes into a rant. At the height of
the rant while he's waving his arms he manages to hit Angela who's
sitting next to him. Phone calls are hot and heavy this evening.
Ramsey calls at 0031. He gets Allan to state that he's been seeing
doctors this week and he's doing fine. reading of emails at 0053.
Closing prayer at 0059. Show was off the air at 0101 with no talk of
the station this evening. 7490 was off the air at 0102 after a bit of
music. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490+, UT Sun Apr 21 at 0100, Pirate Joe opening his
`Shortwave Saturday Night` on WBCQ, previewing topix in next three
hours, says he is on 7490 & 3265, the latter, as always, barely
audible here. Much needed left-wing counterpoint to AW; at 0125 he`s
finishing the ``14 points of fascism``, alluding to how much those
apply to Drumpf`s America.

5130.443, UT Sun Apr 21 at 0108, WBCQ S9+10/20, better than usual on
this frequency; Larry Will & Jane with `Lumpy Gravy Show`, also
claiming to be on 3265! But this was ``live April 19 on 3265`` i.e.
the night before, UT Saturday, according to further comments altho not
on the WBCQ program schedule other than now, his regular spot on
5130v; also makes left-wing comments.

Too much going on as usual on Saturday nights: not only these two, but
Mighty KBC, Wolverine Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VENEZUELA [non]. 9955, UT Sun Apr 21 at 0115, WRMI cutting off `Ask
WWCR` [sic], before it quite finishes in order to start `Acontecer
Venezolano`, which is incredibly the only ``clandestine`` broadcast
concerning this country. Host starts making the case that there is a
schism between the Maduro faxion and the harder-line Chavistas about
how to proceed; and that US & Russia together are trying to organize
some kind of transition. Is he imagining all this?

Altho this show has been on WRMI for a long time, there is no mention
of it on the Programming page! At least not to be found by searching
the text, rather than images. Only two scheduled times on the grid, UT
Friday 0000-0015 & UT Sunday 0115-0130, both on 9955. I`ve not caught
name of the guy who does it, but obviously safely in exile (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15140, April 20 at 1240, RHC is S9+10 of dead air, while
15230 successfully modulates. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also EAST TURKISTAN

** CUBA. 7380, April 20 at 2101, strong open carrier, off in less than
a minute. Must be RHC transmitter check, an hour ahead of the 22-24 UT
broadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 13575, April 20 at 1242, soft song with guitar,
maybe in Chinese, since by 1255 it`s CRI saying ``do svidan'ya``,
about to close Russian service, 500 kW, 308 degrees for Europe this
hour only. At S9 it`s the second SSOB after Cuba back on 13740.0 today
(and 13700 not on yet) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LITENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, April 19 at 2228, rock/rap music, het
maybe local notched, past 2235, S8. More unID logs here, maybe Radio
Gaga until 2238*
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,53066.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5900, April 20 at 0327, TOMBS is S9+10/20, //
not synchro with 7570 WRMI, non-BS speaking English. On this frequency
surely it`s BULGARIA, altho as of April 5-6, Ivo had reported:

SECRETLAND Brother HySTAIRical TOM is no longer
on shortwave via SPL Secretbrod effective from March 31
1500-1700 on 11600 SCB 100 kW / 306 deg to WeEu English
1700-2000 on 9400 SCB 100 kW / 126 deg to N/ME English
1800-2000 on 6000 SCB 050 kW / 030 deg to EaEu English
2000-0300 on 5900 SCB 050 kW / 306 deg to ENAm English

https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/04/brother-hystairical-overcomer-ministry.html
as of April 20 also shows all the SCB relays as inactive including 5900 between 2000 and 0300 (not 0300+).

So what is the span now? It`s always changing, going & coming.

On the contrary, current EiBi shows no BS on 5900 but rather:
5900 0300-0315 G Bible Voice Dardasha-7 A ME /BUL-s
5900 0315-0330 G Bible Voice Dardasha-7 A ME /BUL-s

On the contrary2, while NDXC/Aoki says:
5900 0200-0215 BUL BIBLE VOICE BCN Radio Da Ara Kostinbrod( 1-7
5900 0215-0230 BUL BIBLE VOICE BCN Radio Da Ara Kostinbrod( 1-7

But also with x for off the air:

5900 2100-2200 BUL x The Overcomer Ministry Eng Kostinbrod( 5-3
5900 2200-0200 BUL x The Overcomer Ministry Eng Kostinbrod( 1-7

HFCC A-19 has 5900 available 24 hours from ``Sofia`` aimed toward W
Europe and USward:
5900 0000 2359 27,28,29,38 SOF 250 306 0 618 1234567 310319 271019 D
5000 Eng BUL NEW SPC 8044.

Overcomer Ministry`s own schedule not updated since February! has 5900
Bulgaria at 2000-0300 not for NAm, but Europe/Middle East/Israel
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [and non]. 7205, April 20 at 0325, R. Omdurman again fairly
audible; and also carriers from the Eritreans on 7180, 7140 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 19 at 2233, no signal from VOT English to North
America; surely would be audible if on, like 9420 Greece at S9+25!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1978 monitoring: bandscan finds
surprise new time on WRMI 9955: Friday April 19 at 2226, S9+20, so
started at 2200, and now showing on the skedgrid. This becomes the
first US SW broadcast as long as I produce new shows in time.

Also confirmed at next-newest time, UT Saturday April 20 at 0130 on
WRMI 7780, fair with some SSB ACI

Confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1130 on WRMI 9955, VG S9+10/20

Not confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1431 on HLR 9485-CUSB --- no signal
detectable via UTwente, just splash from 9490

Confirmed Saturday April 20 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, S7-S8; after IS & ID
loop, but WOR opening is again upcut: automation misaligned

Note: Unique Radio website says it is off the air until resuming
Friday April 26. Next:

** U S A. 7505v, April 20 at 0324, WRNO back on for a change, in
English, S7-S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN. 9705 > 9800 > 11630, 1957 UT April 19, JBA carriers on
frequencies publicized for ``Good Friday`` special from Vatican Radio,
a different language on each but for Africa only and totally useless
here. Ditto Saturday April 20 at 1857 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 14270-USB, April 20 at 2150-2155, simplex DX contacts,
pileups alternating with the target station, frenetic pace with heavy
French? accent. Maybe gives his own call occasionally but cannot
understand it, HB9- or HP9? His would-be contacts, all Americans,
never utter his call, just their own, a sorry breach of etiquette. One
should not have to search a DX cluster for ID, but I give up after
seeing nothing current on this frequency. Bye-bye (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Hauser
** ARMENIA. 9300, April 19 at 1328, JBA talk. Aoki/NDXC shows the
complex schedule of TWR India, via Yerevan-Gavar site, this 1315
quarter-hour on day 6 = Friday as in the Kur language, shared with
San, Mun and Kui depending on the DOW. Full name of language per WRTH
is Kurukh, which was on 9365 in B-18. EiBi language list shows: ``KUR
Kurukh/Kurux: India-Chhatisgarh, Jharkhand, W. Bengal (2m) [kru]``.
Recently this was on 9330 by punchup mistake; not a good idea with the
Superstation imminent (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13739.240, April 19 at 1330, RHC knocked itself off-frequency
today, as you never know whether it will stick to 13740.00. // 13700
is still accompanied by weak parasitic spurs approx. 28.3 kHz above
and below. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

A couple of listeners have objected to my frequent remark. Many of the
wrongs result from sloppyration rather than worn-out equipment. All I
can say, as on WORLD OF RADIO 1978, is that if and when RHC stops
messing up, there will no longer be any reason to utter it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN. 7205, April 19 at 0320, singing and drumming at S9, 0329
Arabic talk mentioning Sudan, 0334 instrumental music. Sudan Radio,
domestic service frequency, no doubt under new management. Beware,
that Aoki shows an overlap of Sudan starting at 0210, and PBS
Xinjiang, Urumqi, East Turkistan, in Uyghur until 0257. EiBi, OTOH
shows only a 3-minute overlap, *0257- and -0300* respectively (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K [non]. 17640, April 19 at 1557, BST-1 caradio lands on B-B-C-
chimes, frequency still in memory for when MWV used it in B-18. Should
have been listenable for this 1-hour of BBCWS in English via ASCENSION
to Africa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1978 contents: Afghanistan, Antarctica,
China, Cuba, Denmark, Finland and non, France, Indonesia, Iran,
Malaysia, Oklahoma, Oman, Romania, Solomon Islands, Sudan, Ukraine,
UK, USA; publications; digital TV and radio; and the propagation
outlook.

Completed a day earlier than before, at 0205 UT Friday April 19.
Hamburger Lokalradio will still run 1977 at 0630 Sat as they had not
aired it yet, and then 1978 for 1430 Sat & 1030 Sun.

** U S A. 9330.14v, April 19 at 1327, WBCQ still with TOMBS, not the
500 kW Superstation, which per John Carver, Allan Weiner said on
`Worldwide` last Friday night, would start testing in the coming week
on 9330 or 7490, to be announced in his Twits. QRX. No doubt it will
be on 9330.000 and not with Brother HyStairical, we can only hope.
Bring on the flat-earthers! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1060, April 19 at 0504 UT on the R75 with E-W longwire,
Mexican music, not so eclectic as to be expected from XEEP CDMX but
the SW 6185 is already off. Switching to the DX-398 for DFing at 0544
UT, now it`s WSW/ENE so that rules out XEEP and points to KIJN Farwell
TX; now I am suspecting the songs are of praise, especially with

Trouble is, KIJN is a 10-kW direxional daytimer! But it`s well-known
as a longtime cheater running at night, In Jesus` Name -- WWJD? SS but
not religious beyond in almost same direxion is KXPL El Paso TX,
another 10 kW daytimer ND, but not such a cheater. There are other USA
SS on 1060 in NRC AM Log, none of them likely here and none religious,
in CA, NV, NC, NC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1420, April 19 at 0550 UT, super-hype voice actors (SHVA) in
Spanish with promos or ads, Mexican music, 0557 automated TC for 12,
56 = CDT. Something (else?) here in the mix is enough off-frequency to
produce a LAH. I am enjoying the perhaps temporary absence of loud
local KCRC Enid spur on 1420v, while on alternate transmitter
following power outage/surge?

Cannot copy ID at 0601 UT other than FM frequency 103.3 or 106.3.
Loops NW/SE so that rules out Mexico. No Coloradans on 1420, but the
closest likely is KBHS Hot Springs AR, more like ESE, in NRC AM Log as
U1 5000/87 watts, SS but its La Zeta FM as 105.5. Has there been a
change? Bingo! in the WTFDA FM Database:

``K292HG KBHS-1420 106.3 HOT SPRINGS AR USA 0.25 0.25 0.0 0.0 34-27-19
93-03-26 Silent //KZNG 1340. KBHS is silent`` -- silent no more.

Altho there could have been a format flip since it went to press 8+
months ago (and now sold out), NRC AM Log has only other SS on 1420 in
FL, FL, ID, none likelier here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1630, April 19 at 0605 UT, Mexican music loops NNW/SSE,
mutually nullable with KCJJ Iowa, making a medium SAH. The only such
Unitedstatesian is KRND, Fox Farm WY to the NW, confirmed by 0610 UT
with its known identity ``La Jota Mexicana`` IDs in passing.

But where is my closest 1630, KKGM Fort Worth TX? No sign of it in the
mix, off? It`s a gospel huxter in English, with a lot of music. I am
hearing such a format at 1323 UT recheck. Always helpful to tune LSB
to minimize local 1640 KZLS, especially on the way to FTW, and
oppositely to Fox Farm.

Fox Farm cannot be found on the regular Rand McNally atlas, and not
even on the 2013 large-scale version, nor in their indices! (There is a
Foxpark, SW of Laramie). Thus I am forced to seek its location online.
Fox Farm is a suburb of Cheyenne. Yet KRND address, per NRC AM Log, is
way off in Broomfield CO, between Boulder and Denver! Studio? (Glenn
