Logs
** CUBA. 15730, March 20 at 2239, weekly Sunday third broadcast of
Esperanto from RHC confirmed at S9+15 into Missouri SDR, overmodulated
and distorted, much stronger than Spanish on 15370. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. Last week I confirmed second airing at 1500, but not yet
the first which should be at 0700 on some 6 MHz channel (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9884.803v, March 20 at 2112, here we go again, R. Cairo on
yet another frequency, in B21 for French until 2115, S9+30 totally
distorted music into UTwente. Maybe about to move for totally
distorted English from 2315? Was 9909.8 yesterday, ex 9899.8 before
that. So it pays to tune around the area. However, at 2202 recheck now
it`s on 9899.802, S9+40. At 2353, more than an hour after English
would have finished, now it`s polluting 9909.951. Probably off circa
2400 like yesterday. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 15100, Sunday March 20 at 1958, anti-christ pirate
Station YHWH, Josiah with his usual rants, S8/S9 into a VE6JY KiwiSDR
in Alberta, SAM showing minus 12 Hz = 15099.988. Tnx to WOR iog tip
from Chris Smolinski who was barely hearing him in Maryland at 1952.
YHWH was also active on 15100 the daytimes of March 16 and 19, but I
missed those. This time I hasten after 2000 to perform TDOA, using
three sites in western N America. Eventually they agree that YHWH is
in the Salem, Oregon area. I withhold the `probable` coordinates,
which are unlikely to be precise anyway. Perhaps some DXer around
there could track him further with a groundwave signal. But one reply
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,94655.0.html
says he seems local in the northern Mojave desert, California. Still
on at 2008 and at 2014 I check 15100 direct to find a JBA signal; left
on via VE6JY in the background, Days of Hard Life themesong at 2025, a
bit more talk and soon off. Or was it 2035 in my original logscribble
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, continued from previous report, R. Svoboda in
Russian continued until 1959.7* March 20, ID and off; via Khimki SDR
in Russia. No jamming audible. Vlad the Mad must be sad he didn`t keep
jammers on standby (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2130 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
March 20 after 2100 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, Villa Estense,
S9+12 into nearby Noale SDR. First chance to be sure I`m on IRRS this
week with Friday 1915 pre-empted and 2130 repeat missed checking.

Also confirmed Sunday March 20 after 2100 on WRN European webcast.

Also confirmed Sunday March 20 at 2230 on WRMI 5950 -- replaced on
skedgrid like last week but not yet, still running again.

As expected, 7730 is still off the air so not UT Monday at 0030
March 21. Next:

0300vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW
0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 9455 to NNW

Logs
** AUSTRIA. 11880, March 20 at 0603, S5-S8 music with flutter. Not //
6000 so not RHC error. Aoki shows AWR in Arabic via Moosbrunn at
0600-0700. With the First Day of Spring! overnight hi-latitude MUFs
beginning to perk up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 13130, March 20 at 1458, JBA carrier with Doppler flutter,
CNR1 jammer; also a tad better with music on 13020 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. 11660, March 20 at 1459, Chinese and VOA closing
with YDD, S9+10 via THAILAND, mix with other music from CNR1 jammer,
timesignal 1500 and off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, March 20 at 0641, HC English VG now after France/Japan
collision until 0630. Also still on good 6100, and less good 6060 with
hum. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, March 20 at 1456, weak music S7-S9 with Doppler
flutter. Hooray, KBSWR so-called N American service is beginning to
show on First Day of Spring at 1533 UT. Their totally bonkers
frequency management keeps it here yearound, lost in space all winter
but maybe somewhat listenable by midsummer: 13-14 English, 14-15
Korean (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185-, March 20 at 0640, XEPPM with fado music amid its
eclectic, you-never-know-what format; S9+10 sufficient but wish they
could keep the modulation louder (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 1395 kHz, March 20 at 1802, R. Svoboda still here,
via ARMENIA; S9+10 but heavy ACI unless narrowed from much stronger
1386 // Russian via Radio Baltic Waves, LITHUANIA, monitoring via
Khimki, Russia SDR. Ironically this MW funded by Shortwaves for
Freedom. 1395 remains on past 1900 switching to TOMBS cult, as IDed at
1926 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, March 20 at 1858 tune-in via Khimki, Russia
SDR, R. Svoboda already on the air like MW 1395, here S9+15/20 atop
presumed VOA Thailand which goes off 9370 by 1900 leaving novosti from
R. Svoboda in the clear. Wonder how early on air today, 1830? to
compensate for late 1930 start yesterday? Still suspected Gavar,
ARMENIA site like 1395. By 1935 some singing is interspersed on 9370
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K O G B A N I [non]. 13865, March 20 at 0608, English news about
Ukraine, mostly American accents; could it be VOA? Of course not! Aoki
shows BBC via VATICAN during this hour; and also 13865 05-06 via
Madagascar. With the First Day of Spring! overnight hi-latitude MUFs
beginning to perk up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2130 monitoring, next:
2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [another cancellation]

** BRAZIL. 28482 USB, March 19 at 2218, PY1JDX, clear fonetix, among a
few trans-equatorials poking thru on 10m. from:
https://www.qrz.com/lookup/py1jdx

``PY1JDX Brazil flag Brazil
Paulo de Tarso M. Bastos, Rua J. Henrique Cordeiro, 70,b.2 ap.1406,
Barra da Tijuca - Rio de Janeiro, RJ 22631450, Brazil

PY1JDX KN6NOE 2022-03-19 22:19 10m USB 55 55
PY1JDX N2EWM 2022-03-19 22:14 10m USB 55 55

My QTH is on Barra da Tijuca (Neighborhood), Rio de Janeiro (City),
RJ (the same name State/province), Brazil. It is on a condominium
apartment building, where it is quite hard to install big antennas.
For that reason I can satisfactory operate only on 15, 12, 10 meters,
and higher frequencies bands.

Meu QTH é na Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, RJ, Brasil. É em um
prédio de condomínio de apartamentos, é assim um local difícil de se
instalar grande antenas, sendo assim só posso operar satisfatoriamente
em 15, 12, 10 metros, e bandas de frequencias mais altas.

My HF antenas are a vertical (5.5 meter long) and a Dual Band Moxon
(10 & 6 meters). As antenas de HF são uma vertical (de 5m de
comprimento) e uma Moxon de duas bandas (10 & 6 metros).

Yaesu FT857D is the primary radio. I always operate with an SDR
receiver (SDRPlay), a workstation and CAT control of my radio. Meu
radio principal e um Yaesu FT857D. Sempre opero com um receptor SDR
(SDRplay), uma estaçao de trabalho (PC) e controle remoto do radio
(via CAT). {sic, partially accented}

Sobre mim / About me :
https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulotarsobastos/
[senior RF systems engineer freelance; formerly associate professor,
UNISAT; satellite systems engineer, Star One; test engineer at
Embratel]`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, March 19 at 2212, RHC S9+30 with hum, French
undermodulated. 11850 is also on JBM presumably Spanish. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT [and non]. 9909.803, March 19 at 2226, surprise! Radio Cairo
has bumped up 10.0 kHz for the scheduled 2115-2245 English, pointless
since it`s still the totally broken modulation. First direct at S9/+20
then Synch measured by UTwente at S9+30. That leaves 9900 open for the
China/Taiwan radio war including Doppler jiggling signal.

9909.803 does not go off at 2245 but horrible noisy carrier stays on
and by 2259 there is *still* CCCCCCI also on 9910, this time China vs
RFA Tibetan via Kuwait at 23-24 only. 2300 timesignal and East Is Red
// on 9900 & 9910. Then I notice that UTwente synchs it now on
9910.002. Cairo noise stays on until 2359.7* with some modulation of
unknown language but could be Arabic imaginatively scheduled from
2330. Does not anyboss in charge ever turn on a radio and hear how it
sound??

Look at this: A22 coordination shows a bunch of different frequencies
all still on 9 MHz band, but not including 9910; 2115 English
supposedly on 9440 which has been the distorted Albanian frequency at
1500; that goes to 9410; playing random selexion games?:
http://hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A22&broadc=ERU
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA [non]. 9370, Sat Mar 19 at 1900, NO signal from the new
secret relay of R. Svoboda in Russian: had been coming on with a
carrier overlap, immediately VOA Pashto close via Thailand after brief
YDD at 1900. Still nothing several minutes later. But Manuel Méndez,
Spain says Svoboda cut on at *1930, and then I hear it at 1943, clear
S9+25 into Khimki, Russia SDR, but clatter QRM into UTwente, not as
bad as yesterday. Off again by 2000*. Maybe Shortwaves for Freedom was
paid up today for only half an hour from Armenia? Did not check 1395
kHz before 1900, assuming it would still be there (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2130 monitoring: confirmed new time
March 19 of Saturday 1930 on WRMI 15770, VG S9+8 into Maryland SDR.
This hour is officially on System B, which most of the time feeds
9955, so hoped would also be webcast, but that had fill music, nor the
BS which remained on SW 9955.

Also confirmed Sat Mar 19 at 1929 already underway on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
MO, VG into nearby KB0FX SDR, about 2 minutes into so started slightly
early circa 1927 - this does not mean the evening repeat will be
earlier than 0315.

Also confirmed Sat Mar 19 at 2030 on additional time of WRN webcast to
N America; should also be at 2100 on European stream.

As warned, not confirmed UT Sun Mar 20 at 0030 on WRMI 7730 as that
transmitter`s antenna is down for repairs, so off the air but hoped to
return by Tuesday. Wish they could hook up to another antenna in
meantime even if wrong azimuth.

Also confirmed UT Sunday March 20 until 0355 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
Wentsville MO, so started about 0326, S9+10 into nearby SDR with some
storm crashes. Next:

1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670
2100 UT Sunday IRRS 1323-Italy
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW [another cancellation]

** U S A. 15770, Sat Mar 19 at 1902, WRMI with English discussion
about Ukraine, presumably R. Prague International as scheduled.
However, refers to ``now`` being in sixth day of invasion, so recorded
more than a biweek ago! Same also heard on only webcast from WRMI,
which is of System B, ordinarily what is fed into 9955 SW, except this
19-20 hour of 15770.

WORLD OF RADIO has just been added to the schedule Saturdays at 1930
on 15770, so I`m expecting it also to be webcast --- but it`s not,
rather fill music. Meanwhile what about 9955? It does remain on air,
with TOMBS before and after 1930 into Maryland SDR.

What then at 2000? English gospel huxter on 15770, which would be
Yeshua Prayer & Praise now from System H; TOMBS on 9955, and something
in Arabic on webcast. System B grid shows this hour as internet only,
and with blank spaces (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
