** CUBA. 11850, Feb 18 at 0052, RHC Spanish is S+30 but as usual, JBM,
suptorted. Parasitic carriers with no modulation detected but
achieving S8 on 11840, S9 on 11860, which by this hour bears no
jamming or Yemening. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

undermodulated but sufficient on an S9+30 signal, // 12000 which is 2

5040, the only scheduled frequency at 00-01; 13740 with wrong program
feed instead of Spanish? Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Feb 16 at 1520, no signal of LRA36 into
two Brazilian SDRs, but JBA this Wednesday into Brasília, and
Montevideo, S1-S2 with 1525 ID, 1527 Antárdida themesong, past 1547
but gone before 1603. Sam Sánchez, Oregon had it as early as 1414 via
Brasília; and Wolfgang Büschel, Germany, 1500-1520 via Montevideo
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6000, Feb 16 at 0700, S9+20 of dead air from RHC;
all other frequencies are off already as I expect this one shortly
shall be too. Something`s always wrong? at RHC. 5040 however bears a
JBA carrier, presumably VANUATU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 7220, Feb 16 at 2305, I am plenty busy simulmonitoring
English from SPAIN and TURKEY [qq.vv.] at once but make a quick check
of RRI: at UTwente, very heavy rapid clicking ranging 7200-7240, OTH
radar? centred right on maybe a trace of RRI. But at Maryland SDR,
much further beyond W European target, RRI is loud and clear with none
of that QRM. Or could be local problem at UTwente? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 16 at 2307, token REE English is not off the
air but VG S9+15/27 into Maryland SDR. After news, feature about a
``ghost village`` uncovered in a draining reservoir; 2310 about Gala
cinema awards in Valencia, not in Castilian. Shortly retune to TURKEY,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Feb 16 tune-in from Spain at 2316, closing
a `Feeling Supreme` feature about some remedy, +018 Hz offset and
S9+35 into UTwente but annoying hum. Otherwise sufficient modulation
and no squeal. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. 2318 `Weekly
Commentary` penned by someone in a Washington DC branch, but neither
intro nor outro can I understand their name or credentials, as voiced
by the YL with heavy accent, but it`s about Qatar as a useful non-NATO
ally. 2329, `Turkey`s Cultural Treasures,` something dating back
thousands of years; but at 2330 it`s my time for `NBC Nightly [sic]
News` already before sunset here. Later always enjoyable Turkish music
fill, 2353 the usual OM announcer sign-off of the ``1230-1330 on 15450
to Europe`` broadcast! Which is doubly erroneous, the A-season
scheduling only. Something`s always awry at Ankara. The CCCCCCI has
been growing and uncovered at VOT 2354* after only a fragment of one
IS iteration (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re 305 kHz, my Feb 15 log of beacon OI, S. Sioux City NE,
Rick Barton replies: ``Hey Glenn. My only expertise here is being a
DXer and being the son of two general aviation pilots.

Many of the NDBs used to set up approaches to airports use 5 letter
names, i.e., "BILOY" that sets up for Billard Airport in Topeka,
Kansas. of course, the beacon call is "TO". This is also true of
enroute IFR "intersections", such as the "PAYSO" intersection, NW of
Phoenix, but close to Payson, AZ. Another beacon, that sets up an
approach for Charles City (IA) airport, is designated "CHUKK" (get it?
Charles, Chuck Hi HI).

Anyway, I learned over time that some of the airnav sites are named
for purely local things like nearby golf courses, businesses, rivers
and lakes, or even ghost towns. Someone from South Sioux City, Neb.
might have your answer.

It may be that the airport where the beacon is located, Martin Field,
was named for Tom Martin. Beacons "at the field" are usually named for
the airport itself, and may not use the 5 letter rule. But I took a
look at the aviation chart and saw right off that the beacon is one of
two that set up approaches for Sioux City Gateway Airport's Runway
13/31. (The other beacon is SU-"SALIX"). It may have been convenient
that the nearby town of Salix, IA, has 5 letters! 73 from the Sonoran
Desert - rb`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 335 MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 0654 UT, BV, 25-watt ND
beacon at BatesVille, Arkansas; mixing with dash and YLD, 1000 watts
at Chapleau, Ontario which is normally heard without any BV.

245 MCW kHz, Feb 16 at 0700 UT, FS, 400 watt NDB at Sioux Falls, South
Dakota; tuned to 243 USB. A regular not always logged, but note not a
trace now nor ever on 243 of RTLuxembourg, which WRTH says is 24h with
750,000 watts day, 375,000 night, direxional 227 degrees toward Paris
from Beidweiler site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
