** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Oct 6 at 1451 tune-in via Brasilian
remotes: NO signal at Campo, so not on? No, something must be wrong
with that remote, since I do hear it at S3-S4 via Brasília #2. Usual
stuff, songs, 1453 ``Nacional La Radio Pública`` non-ID, more at 1507,
1515, music; 1521 Antártida song; 1523 Pardinho SDR opens up and gets
it better at S5-S6; 1524 music, 1540 multilingual ``sign-on``
including English telling us that it`s in Spanish; talk about
Antarctic treaty on environmental protexion signed 4 October 1991 in
Madrid, but which went into effect in 1998. 1547 bit of hielo song,
NLRP, talk, 1620 NLRP; chopped off in progress at 1641.5* (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1460, Oct 6 at 2112 UT, ``La Tremenda, lo primero en
noticias``, ID partly in English for KZUE 1460 & 97.7; ``minuto 60``
news in Spanish mainly about Tejas, 2116 music. That`s 500-watt
daytimer from El Reno. Heard no mention of ``Radio Fórmula`` also as
in NRC AM log but still may be plugging into that Mexican network at
times (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13815, Oct 6 at 2323, no signal, unlike 24 hours ago,
good in Arabic. Must have been a frequency mistake or a test, but
whence? Latest Aoki dated Oct 6 still has it not; and EiBi has not
been updated for a month! since Sept 5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. Oct 5 at 0621+ UT, finally few storms in CONUS so noise
level low enough to reuncover some ND beacons not heard for months:

335-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0623 UT, dash and YLD, 1000 watts from Chapleau,
Ontario.

284-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0627 UT, dash and QD, 500 watts from The Pas
MB.

269-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0628 UT, dash and UDE, 50 watts from Delta MB.

250-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0635 UT, dash and FO, 1600 watts from Flin FlOn
MB.

223-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0639 UT, dash and YYW. This is missing from
dxinfocentre.com, not on any frequency, probably ``decommissioned``. I
have heard it before, many times last winter, finally on Feb 5: it`s
1000 watts from Armstrong in remote NW Ontario. But classaxe.com RNA
Signals List shows it still logged as recently at 2021-10-02, but
never in OK, and power of only 100 watts.

212-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0640, dash and YGX, 50 watts from Gillam MB.
Last logged Dec 14 with some info about Gillam. More this session at
USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Oct 5 at 0135, RHC Spanish modulation is
suppressed/distorted = suptorted to the level of JBM = just barely
modulated, S9+20/30 going to waste. SAWA = Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Oct 5 at 2315, RHC Spanish is S9+10/20 with humbuzz
like often infesting 6060 later, probably same transmitter.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13650, Oct 5 at 2320, CRI music only instead of Portuguese
relay is S9+10 but overmodulated & distorted. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Oct 5 at 0621+ UT, finally few storms in CONUS so noise
level low enough to reuncover some ND beacons not heard for months:

356-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0621 UT, ODX, 25 watts from Ord, Nebraska

341-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0623 UT, OIN, 25 watts from Oberlin KS: yes,
Enid local EI is still silent.

257-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0630 UT, JYR, 25 watts from York, NE

257-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0632 UT, FWC, 25 watts from Fairfield/Wayne
County, Illinois. I was tuned to 255-USB, where SW Stillwater OK is
still silent.

251-MCW kHz, Oct 5 at 0634 UT, AM, 100 watts from Amarillo TX. More
from same session: CANADA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Oct 5 at 1456 & 2313 chex, still no signal from
WLCR/WBCQ. Has Allan explained anything about this by disgraced twit?
Of course not; almost all of them are pro-motional, lastly for AAAWWW
on Oct 1. How about the WLC website? Of course not! The latest
``news`` there is dated 2019 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1310 kHz, Oct 6 at 0052 UT, Spanish YL praying openly and
fervently, as if God couldn`t read her mind, loops W/E; by ToH faded
into jumble, something else IDing in English. There are several SS
mostly E and W coast, but the nearby obvious SS:REL hit is KZIP
Amarillo TX, 1000/88 watts non-direxional, Radio Vida, per new NRC AM
Log [which I highly recommend; see
https://nationalradioclub.org/catalog/books/books.html
for ordering info]. Official FCC sunset for KZIP in October was 0015
UT, so I had it with 88 watts? November: 2345 UT. As so often,
radio-locator.com info is outdated as ``Radio Caliente``. FCC shows
licensee is Christian Ministries of the Valley, Inc. What valley? Not
AMA. Coverage map at r-l shows site is slightly due west of Amarillo;
probably visible along I-40 near Cadillac Ranch (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Oct 5 at 0150-0157
UT: 531, 558(2), 576, 585(2), 612, 621, 639, 657, 684(2), *693, 738,
765, 774(2), 837(2), 882(2), 909, 963, 981, 999, 1053, *1089, 1098(2),
1107, 1116, 1125(3), 1134, 1152, *1215, 1278, 1296, 1413, 1512, 1575
kHz. *strongest probably UK; (2) at least two carriers beating at
widely varying rates; (3) more than two (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13815, Oct 5 at 2321, surprised to find a VG S9 signal
direct to here with ME music, Arabic W&M chat, brief Qur`an, chanting
for several minutes could be secular; 2333 ``Idha`at ---`` which would
be an ID but could not copy it. Starting to fade down. Recheck Oct 6
at 0022, no signal to remotes in Europe, E N America, N S America.
Only 13815 entry in EiBi, Aoki and HFCC is 1800-1900, Algeria via
France in Arabic and French. Of course that is normally completely off
the air before 2300. What is it?? Sounds like a major station (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, Oct 4 at 1434, RHC Spanish overmodulated & distorted,
splashing about 12 kHz above and below. // 13700 is better and still
spurless. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Some mild tropo over OK & KS October 4 morning
1516-1530+ UT, besides several more BAD signals on RF 11, 10, 8:

RF 14, KOCY DTV, virtual PSIP as 48-3. Why not 48-1? My first
confirmation of this, while KOCY OKC with Estrella TV continues as
part of the RF 29 KTUZ cluster along with two other supposedly
competing Spanish networx, each with totally different virtual
channels. W9WI.com lists only two different CPs for this -LP on 14, 15
kW and 7.5 kW.

RF 20, no IDs on the PSIP, but Broken Arrow ad = Tulsa suburb.
Otherwise displays as KQCW-HD 19-1.

RF 36 shows as DTV 17-5 but no call! Got to be KDOR-TV Bartlesville,
the TBN station, but in W9WI.com lists with only 4 virtual 17s and
their fifth sub supposedly being 18.5 with Positiv. Did not find what
program source is really on this. One megawatt.

RF 34, 41-1 KMYT-TV. 812.5 kW from Tulsa with of course MyTV on main.

RF 28, 44-1 ION. KTPX-TV, 1 megawatt, CoL Okmulgee = Tulsa market. Six
channels, four of which are shoppers, 44-3 = IONPlus; two of the
others are not 44+ virtually.

RF 22, 22-1 KTOU-LD, 15 kW from OKC. Has an APP for only 9.8 kW,
unknown location. Invisible here without tropo.

RF 12, 12-3 but then leads to 33-3 Antenna. Confusing situation. The
RF 12 in OK is KGEB ``53`` but not listed with Antenna network. Must
really be KSCW-DT, Wichita KS, which is only 15 kW, but in W9WI.com by
channel its virtual channels are ``36.`` not 33! A mistake, or
out-of-date info? The other subs match up: 33-4 Start TV, 33-2
Decades, 33-1 KSCW-DT in local news, and weather with 12 logo in UL
corner of screen. W9WI.com by state does show virtual 33 not 36. But
there is *another* KSCW-DT on RF 12 with 66.4 kW AND virtual 12.
Callsign of both KSCW-DT, but RF 33 is licensed as an LD, while RF 12
is LIC as DT. Is one of them really in Hutch, the other in Wich? NO,
same geo coords for both in W9WI.oom.

Again the only RF channel I am really getting is 12. 33 would be
blocked by KOCB ``34`` OKC, and I already had something else as above
on RF 36!

CBS for Wichita market was originally KTVH ch A12 Hutchinson, but its
successor KWCH Hutchinson is now W9WI.com-listed both RF and virtual
as channel 19 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.90 approx., Oct 4 at 0610, surprised to find WBCQ on
air at this late hour, not even for TOMBS as on 6160- & 4790-, but
S9/+10 of rock music, 0611 Radio Newyork International singing ID,
0616 Allen Sane ID, taking a ``live`` call. Maybe some kind of test.
Wolfgang Bueschel, Germany, logged this shortly later, via a remote?
not specified: ``7489.904 poor string, empty, likely EXCITER string
outlet only, at 0629 UT. 73 wb df5sx wwdxc topnews``. It was certainly
full-power when I heard it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Oct 4 at 0139 check, no signal from WLCR/WBCQ; after
an absence, I had heard strong open carrier only 7 hours earlier, and
after that several others reported same intermittently; meanwhile the
WLCR relays via other sites were also absent. Still no 9330 signal at
2348 October 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7490-, Oct 4 at 2300, WBCQ with first half of `UBMP` I
missed 25 hours earlier, this time good music from Brunei. Who
remembers like I do, without looking it up, the last/only SW frequency
from there? Maryland remote SAS shows minus 95 Hz = 7489.905 at
S9+10/20. I am listening via that since own webcast is still distorted
into the red. Chopped off at 2330 for ID and ad for St. Jude`s, before
`Camp Constitution Radio` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UZBEKISTAN. 11539.90, Oct 4 at 1456, JBA talk. EiBi shows Voice of
Wilderness, for Korea North on ``11540``. Typical offfrequenciness by
Tashkent site. Per WRTH, VOW is produced in S Korea by Cornerstone
Ministries based in California (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 2749-USB, Oct 4 at 0108, YL with marine weather in French,
forecasts for lundi, mercredi, jeudi, etc. DXinfocentre.com says at
this hour it would be VCO Sydney NS starting at 0040, 550 watts
bilingual. Next would be Yarmouth from 0140 and Halifax 0240.

First logs of these for the season vs the summer/storm noise level.

2598-USB, Oct 4 at 0109, YL with marine weather in English, always
weaker than 2749s, S3 to S2.5 close to the noise level. Starting at
0107 is VCM, 600 watts from St. Anthony which is on The Rock, but
listed with (LABRADOR); not sure what that means, transmitter one
place, source and or info about the other? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CARIBBEAN NETHERLANDS. 800, Oct 4 at 0155, Spanish in the mix on
E/W loop despite KQCV OKC and CKLW Windsor. TWR a.k.a. BONAIRE is SS
at 0000-0500 for Cuba and Caribbean, so a favorable azimuth for us. MW
News Oct has an article explaining why despite a 440 kW transmitter,
PJB is no longer easily into Europe, but best chance when for Carib in
general (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 590, Oct 4 at 0053, classical music, got to be CMBF, Radio
Musical Nacional, 25 kW from La Julia, Mayabeque near Habana. Only one
other CM on 590, a Rebelde in far Guantánamo. Best by far on my E/W
loop, buried on the N/S shortwire. Why can`t I hear a single US
station classical on AM? ¡Viva la revolución! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4747 approx., Oct 4 at 0124, scratchy S7 spur out of 4765
Radio Progreso, which is S9+35 and distorted, QRMing CODAR; the
cadence of the spur matches the music on 4765. Matched by another
about 4783; full range each covers: approx. 4744-4748 & 4778-4785.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Oct 4 at 0134, RHC in wrong language, Spanish not
English and // 5040; while 6000 is not // in music presumably correct
English service.

11670 & 11760, UT Mon Oct 4 at 0142, RHC `En Contacto` DX program in
progress, about a transponder change at the ISS, but these two
frequencies are suptorted, S3-S6. 11850 is not only suptorted but just
barely modulated as she is apparently citing the times for this show
but like last week I am not paying close attention beyond hearing
``0235`` which would be wrong instead of 0135. Elsewhere: 9710 with
heavy CCI from China; 9535 weaker but clearer.

13740, Oct 4 at 0144 another Spanish frequency check, sometimes on,
sometimes not, but now it`s in ENGLISH! Apparently crossed up with
6165 in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6924-USB, Oct 4 at 0106, hard rock at S9. 0137 still
going but off by 0149 check. A few logs here say Two Dog Radio:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,87249.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6876-USB, Oct 4 at 0107, guitar music S9; 0122 DJ
with Brit accent says ``Best Smooth Jazz``. 0137 still going. 0150
still VG with jazz piano; 0153 Brit chat spells out LUCAS, ``Smooth
Jazz`` as if name of ``station`` if not programme. 0201 Smooth Jazz
dedication to some YL for birthday? We hear a few words from her.
Accents are so heavy, hard for me to understand despite VG reception,
S9+10. Mentions bestsmoothjazz.com and rescued cats.

That website exists in London, England, with TV show of Oct 2, this
one? And promo next one of Oct 14.

These say 6876 is really Mix Radio International, starting at 2133 Oct
2 on 6866, and move to 6876 at 2226:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,87233.0.html
Hardly anybody cites ``Best Smooth Jazz``, but MRI says after a
comment:

``Quote from: dave524 on Today at 01:53 --- For the wide signal I've
found the Digital mode in SDRUno with the 12K width gives the best
sound, great sounding show as usual``

``That`s great because our transmitter is optimized for wideband SDR
for best sound. At the same time we will sound good on any radio that
is on frequency with our GPS. Thank you for your posts and especially
tuning into MRI tonight. Logged Mix`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6930-USB, Oct 4 at 0149, weak music S3-S4 with
fadeouts. Much weaker than the others. Was not hearing this while 6924
was on. These say it`s Radio 48:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,87248.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1020, UT Mon Oct 4 at 0056, ``Born Too Late`` pop music
on near-local signal: got to be KOKP Perry, one of `Triple Play Sports
Radio` breaking main format. Past 0101, ``gotta get out of here, The
Old Stillwater Jukebox``, back next Sunday, ``Good night, Oklahoma,
Tom Dirato``, 0103 to dead air, JBA talk, CCI? No, gradual fadeup of
Patriot Radio Network, I suppose sports rather than political. So what
time does the Jukebox start??? He doesn`t say and the website does not
either, but has a rotating display on homepage:
http://tripleplaysportsradio.com/
I confirmed this // 105.1 KOSB Perry, local quality but not audible on
1580 KOKB Blackwell which is VG daytime, but now should be 49 watts. I
never hear either of these FMs on website: ``now 5-deep with 93.1
Stillwater, 93.3 Ponca City``. Presumably translators, but why do they
need one in S-W? Maybe separately programmed when games pile up,
triple-play not enough. KOKP 24h is plenty to ruin reception of
Roswell, Pittsburgh or anything else on 1020 (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** U S A. 3390.5-USB, Oct 4 at 0113 UT, NF01FB, fonetikaly more than
once, ``regional net has closed``; MARS? Have not heard a call of such
a format before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 3819-USB, Oct 4 at 0115, the non-LSB hams again in technical
discussions, and this time I copy some calls: K5MXJ interjecting,
AA5KG, two of them talking over each other for a minute. QRZ.com
shows: K5MXJ, Kenneth M Jones, Jr, Houston, TX 77075;
AA5KG, ALAN C PETERSON, Pueblo West, CO 81007 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4095.65, Oct 4 at 0120, whoops and CW ID as DW, JBA vs S5
noise level, so Desert Whooper, no sign of any voice now. DW replied
to my last report:

``Hello Glenn! Thanks for you great HF listings! That is a very
interesting intercept! Definitely not any voice transmissions coming
from DW. What was your receive location and receiver bandwidth? There
is an ITU channel 401 on 4095 KHz for ships to transmit on. Maybe you
were hearing a ship plus DW whoops in your receiver??``

To which I replied:

``Enid OK. Not sure of the bandwidth, on the R75 but normal USB tuning
in 1-kHz steps landing right on 4095 where the SSB sounded normal.
Maybe ship, but seemed coordinated with the whoops and voicing the
kind of info which would otherwise be sent in CW. Wish I could have
heard it longer and better. Also, I did not detect any CW during this
log. While the voice was on 4095.00, I can`t be sure of the whooper
frequency, hard to pin down by its nature without a carrier but also
heard tuned to 4095.00`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6993, Oct 4 at 0104, at least two JBA carriers beating, I
have been noticing lately; logged several times before, but I should
do so at least once a year, cf. this from *2017* ---

``6993, Sept 10 at 0002, JBA carrier as almost always audible from
presumed WH2XWF, experimental 164-watt transmitters with several
locations in Florida, to study ionospheric disturbances, never IDing,
nothing but dead air. We`ll see if this gets blown or flooded off.

6993, Sept 12 at 0133, no JBA carrier from presumed WH2XWF, the
Florida ionospheric study transmitters, so maybe Irma-caused. But Sept
13 at 0200 the JBA carrier is reaudible. No pirates (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WORLD OF RADIO 1895, DX LISTENING DIGEST)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2106 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
October 3 from 2000.5 on IRRS SW via AM Italia 918 kHz, S9-S8 after
music, 2000 IRRS ID with Milano PO box, via Noale SDR.

Also confirmed Sun Oct 3 at 2230 on WRMIs, 5950, S9+28, and 9955 two
words behind, S9+32, both via Knoxville SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 4 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 VG direct;
9395, S9+22 and 9455, S8, both via Knoxville SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday October 4 from 0301.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6160 minus 27 Hz = 6159.973 into Knoxville SDR; JL ran slightly over
interrupted by a quick legal ID at 0300. S7 and must use narrow LSB to
minimise splash from 6165 RHC, still in Spanish, q.v. Next:

1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW

** U S A. 5050, UT Mon Oct 4 at 0128, WWRB is S9+45, gospel huxter
mixing with amateurish horn music, all distorted, then some horn only;
0130 YL introduces another program with guitar music, better
modulation. This is active only on UT Sun & Mon, for a few hours local
Sat and Sun evenings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 12880, Oct 3 at 1452, Chinese S6-S4 with flutter, CNR1
jammer.

12500, Oct 3 at 1454, music S3-S5 with flutter, // 12880, CNR1 jammer.
No others found in the WOOB 12-13 or 10-11 areas (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Oct 3 at 1854, RHC with S7/9+10 of dead air; by 1909
modulating in English; but supposed to be in Kriyol before 1900.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRELAND. 13264-USB, Oct 3 at 1451, YL VOLMET, JBA S0, i.e. Shannon
scheduled here 24h (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. Re my Oct 2 report, Alan Roe replies on WOR iog:
``Hi Glenn, It's also worth mentioning that the RNZI/RNZPac weekly
schedules at https://www.rnz.co.nz/international/schedules still also
show "9:08PM [to 11:00PM] Sunday Night with Grant Walker" whereas the
timings should be 8:08-10: PM, i.e. 0708-0900 UT, and the programme is
now "The Sunday Night Retro Show with Phil O'Brien". I suspect that
some (at least) of the rest of weekly schedule timings may also be
one-hour off. Alan Roe, Teddington, UK`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K. 15510, Oct 3 at 1855, modern ME vocal jazzish music, S9/S6,
1859 Arabish announcement with contact info including .com, not
finished when chopped off at 1859.5*. EiBi shows this is FEBA Radio
Sama via Woofferton, while Aoki calls it IBRA Media/Radio Sama. So
which is it? Radio Sama is not in the cross-reference page 524 of WRTH
2021. This transmission on a B-20 frequency appears on page 496 under
SWEDEN: IBRA Media with no mention of Sama. Maybe it`s just a program,
not a ``station``. FEBA refers to India and Pakistan, not Seychelles!
but of course no Arabic or Sama there. BTW, the only ``International``
entry under PAK. The only SW entry in ``National`` sexion is 7265,
Azad Kashmit Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 414-MCW kHz, Oct 3 at 0633 UT, ND beacon SU, which is 40
watts from SioUx City, Iowa; the only somewhat unusual one tonight
altho not `new` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2106 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday October 3 ending at 0336 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, MO, S9+20 direct
vs storm noise, so started early circa 0307.

Also confirmed Sunday October 3 at 1255 on NEW 1230 broadcast by WMRI
Europe via Channel 292, GERMANY, 9670, S6-S8 into UTwente, atop CCI
music. Normally I want to sleep an hour later, but good thing I
alarmed myself since no one has replied to my explicit request for
monitoring of this! 1259 music comes up, ``Piece of the Axion``, past
hourtop, 1302 roboYL ``Dex Carter`` ``playing favorite songs until
1400``. While this music is running, I can`t hear QRMusic which may
have stopped; I hope WMRI itself was not underlaying WOR with music.
It so happens that the time for us coincides with that Vietnamese
clandestine transmitted from Taiwan at 1230-1300 on 9670; EiBi says
there is noise jamming too but I don`t hear that. WMRI`s entire
experimental broadcast runs 1200-1600 Sundays; and Channel 292
schedule shows it`s direxional on two letters toward North America;
they now display this with a proper great circle map. But it was not
audible into Maine SDR on this day path, let alone to OK. Channel 292
transmits from Rohrbach in SE Germany, Bavaria near Ingolstadt, east
of Stuttgart, between Nürnberg and München; only 520 km = 323 statute
miles from UTwente SDR at Entschede, Netherlands; but evidently not
inside the skip zone. Next:

** U S A [and non]. 9330, Oct 3 at 1458 past 1500, no signal from WLCR
via WBCQ. Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, also reports:

``World's Last Chance Radio relays via SPL and ENC-DMS off air. But on
October 3 also no signal of World's Last Chance Radio via WBCQ-6

https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2021/10/no-signal-of-worlds-last-chance-radio.html
-- 73! Ivo Ivanov``

Alan Holder, Isle of Wight, also reports Oct 3:
``Since October 1, I cannot locate WLC radio via the Woofferton
relays: 17700 English 1700-1900, 9800 Arabic 1800-2100. I also checked
13840 Arabic this morning October 3 at 0930 (and 15780, 17520
alternatives) via Kostinbrod, but nothing heard. The WLC Web site
still lists these broadcasts. Has Galal Doss fallen behind on his
payments or have the relays been cancelled? Alan Holder, G4ZBH, Isle
of Wight, U.K.``

9330, however, Oct 3 at 1846, S9/+10 of dead air back on past 1925
with no modulation, off at 1930* and *1931 back on; surely this
instead of Cuban spy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, Sun Oct 3 at 1849, rock music at S9, but weakened in
daytime absorption just after local mean noon here, WTWW-2; checked
since first hearing S9+10 of PPPP on 9475 WTWW-1. 2 is often on
without 1 on this or 5830 at night, but not 1 without 2 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4095.00-USB, Oct 3 at 0625, surprised to hear OM voice
instead of CW, alternating with upward whoops; JBA in high storm noise
level, but is giving temps in degrees; 0626 ID maybe? and ``out``; and
later 0630 mentions UTC? There seem to be lots of beacons around this
kHz. The ``Desert Whooper`` itself has been higher about 4095.6. I`ve
asked the team there if that`s it, or what. A quick look at HF
Underground does not find anything about voice on this exact frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12747-USB, Oct 3 at 1453, 2-way talk seems Spanish
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Some BAD TV signals Oct 3 at 1509 UT when there is some
tropo in OK & KS: RF 8, 12, 14, 31. Likely Wichita market except 14
could be KOCW Hoisington KS, if not KOCY OKC which I have yet to
confirm. Rooftop antenna remains fix-aimed toward OKC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
