** CHINA [and non]. 15470, May 8 at 1314, talk maybe Chinese with low
audible het = LAH; ChiCom jamming vs scheduled Radio Free Asia in
Tibetan via Tajikistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 12843-CW, May 8 at 1334, ``CQ CQ CQ DR HLO HLO HLO QSX
12 MHZ K`` repeating over and over and due to inconvenient fades took
several times to copy it completely. EiBi shows this is Seoul Radio,
24 hours. Among the few maritime stations left running V or CQ markers
on HF (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 610, May 8 at 1123 Banda music from SSW, 1126 DJ salutes
listener Amanda, now loops SW, but really same station? 1130 UT choral
NA, another one like 540 XETX playing it at this odd time. Again
trying to ascertain whether XEBX Sabinas, Coahuila still be on air; or
XEGS, Guasave, Sinaloa? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 660, May 8 at 1116 UT, Radio Vida ID in passing, phone(?)
number 17-29-12, approx. from south; seems like a Mexican but none
known by this name. Of course could be a program name, likely
Christian. Usual 660s here are XEEY in Aguascalientes and XEDTL in
CDMX. Per NRC AM Log, the only USA SS on 660 is 75-watt Radio Zion in
Oregon. No, KSKY sked remains in English (Glenn Hauser, OK DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 710, May 8 at 1113, the Low German preacher is instead
speaking acceptable Spanish this time on XEDP Ciudad CuauhtÃmoc,
Chihuahua. This one has no problem around SRS surpassing KGNC Amarillo
in similar direxion, or KCMO KC, MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 800, May 8 at 1110 UT, Laboratorios Camacho infomercial,
loud and in the clear from XEROK, as KQCV OKC is unusually absent!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 800, May 8 at 1110 UT, KQCV OKC is off the air! So no
need to null it for XEROK. By 1132 recheck, KQCV is back on with some
ministry plugging an African cruise (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 89.3, May 8 at 1817 UT and May 9 at 2315, even at the
Loyal turnoff on US 81, no signal from KIEL. It`s been
marginal/sporadic into Enid, vs the 89.1 translator.

Also missing again, 101.5 KOCD Okeene, May 19 at 2315 UT, but
something weak in English, maybe translator in OKC or Cushing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1980 monitoring: Not confirmed,
Wednesday May 8 at 2100 on 7490 WBCQ, nor on 9955 WRMI; I`m only on
the PL-880 with telescopic or caradio. WBCQ probably too weak, but
suspect WRMI off, as could detect 9395, and at 2129 recheck, 9955 is
JBA. Confirmed UT Thursday May 9 at 0103 the 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair.

** U S A. 9330.000, May 10 at 0226, gospel huxter at S9+30, much
stronger than WBCQ ever heard here even at night; since not off-
frequency, confident it`s WBCQ-6 on the 500 kW transmitter. Many
others have been hearing this all day. AW`s latest twit as of circa
1930 May 9, WTFK:

``Allan Weinerâ@AllanWBCQ 9h9 hours ago --- On the air with great
radio. 24/7. Testing the big one. Getting close to airdate for the
superstation. Transmitter runs smooth. Very efficient. 75% over all.
Amazing stuff. We need free speech radio more than ever. Support us
and our programmers the best you can. More to come Yep`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5890, May 8 at 0552, WWCR on again with dead air at S9+10;
5935 with PMS is S9+30; 4840 at S9+20; and 3215 with TOMBS S9+20 vs
storm noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13964-CW, May 8 at 1317, fast coded message very poor
signal, not a marker. Nothing around here in EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15260, May 8 at 1315, S5-S6 open carrier; nothing at all
scheduled between 0830 & 1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 0452 UT May 10

** CANADA. 15034-USB, May 6 at 1419, CHR Trenton Military, nothing but
``no report received`` from Ottawa, Toronto, Bagotville --- and
Trenton! over and over (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 11440, May 7 at 1417, CNR1 jammer at S9-S7, // 11460 about
the same. The other day this was on 11460 only. Aoki/NDXC shows both
as *jammed SOH Maoli frequencies available 20 hours a day.

11580, May 7 at 1419, CNR1 jamming at S4-S6, weaker than 11440 &
11460. Same situation as those.

12190, May 7 at 1422, CNR1 jamming // the others, S9/S9+10. Ditto.

12880, May 7 at 1422, CNR1 jamming, S6-S9. Ditto.

13270, May 7 at 1423, Gander Radio weak on USB but also a carrier, so
I try LSB, and there is another very weak CNR1 jammer. Yes, it`s
another listed *jammed SOH Miaoi frequency.

Someone, somewhere will be reporting some of these as Sound of Hope,
fooled by the Chicom, rather than their jammers. In no case was any
sign of SOH audible here, rather CNR1 probably blotting very low power
transmitters in Taiwan or Thailand, if any.

No other WOOB CNR1 jammers found between 10.9 and 18 MHz, but this:

15110, May 7 at 1426, CNR1 jammer S9/S9+10, atop VOA Chinese via
Philippines this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11880, May 6 at 1418, CRI English conversation about
education, with good modulation --- it can be done! Something`s not
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SINGAPORE. 11795, May 6 at 1417, poor S3-S5 with declamatory
speech, then less hyper talk, language? Scheduled as BBC Hindi at
1400-1430, northwestward from Kranji (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** TAIWAN. 9465, May 7 at 1313, pop songs in Japanese (``arigato``),
S6-S8, 1320 into Korean talk with sombre music background, 1325 only
instro-music until 1328* without further utterances. HFCC shows this
is something from Encompass ``CHN`` = PRC! via Taiwan, 300 kW at 2
degrees. Aoki/NDXC shows what it really is:
``9465 1300-1329 TWN Nippon no Kaze"il bon ue Kor Paochung 1-7``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 6 at 2227, VOT English to NAm is on today but
very poor (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1980 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday May 6 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+10.

Also confirmed UT Mon May 6 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, S9 vs storm crashes
about same level.

Also confirmed UT Mon May 6 at 0305 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5130.4v, JBA
sounds like me vs storm crashes while on indoor longwire and computer
off.

Also confirmed UT Mon May 6 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, fair but noisy. Was
S9+10 when checked earlier at 0306 with rock music from Prague.

Also confirmed by Franck Baste (St Bonnet de Rochefort, France) F4LKC:
``ROMANIA: IRRS Shortwave - 7290 kHz - [Monday] May 6 - 1815 UT -
World of Radio 1980 (SIO: 444). Rx: Icom IC-756 pro III + SDR Perseus,
Ant: Vertical + Dipole``

Also confirmed UT Tue May 7 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair. Next:

2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

[it appears we will now be running on a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, so

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9330+, May 6 at 1755, JBA carrier off-frequency, and 7490 no
signal; no signs of WBCQ-6, 500 kW transmitter testing now or at any
other random chex today.

As of 1608 UT May 7, AW`s last twit was two days ago:

``Allan Weinerâ @AllanWBCQ May 5 --- Burning the kilowatts here. Still
testing. More this week for the nations superstation. Still much to
do. Classic WBCQ on air 7490/5130 kHz tonight with great programming.
Please listen and support us. Nice day here in beautiful northern
Maine. Fresh air. Blue skies. Any. Moving``.

Among the great programming was another classical music hour, `Encore`
from Radio Tumbril, 0000-0100 UT Monday May 6 on WBCQ 7490v, but I
apologize for listening to mono webcast since I was busy at the
computer.

https://www.tumbril.co.uk/
Website has sizing problem. You need to shrink it in order to see some
linx, such as the Valve at lower left corner which I finally see for
the first time today. And click here for playlist at lower right
corner. I could not reach the current one during the programme, but as
of 5/7 I do see the 5/5/19 one. All of this rather slow-loading. Lots
of good reaxion at
https://www.tumbril.co.uk/coments-page
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, Tue May 7 at 1310, WRMI gospel huxter in English
lamenting that there are ``1600 religions, all of them against Jesus
Christ``; furthermore he is fighting Cuban pulse jamming, always a
risk if you broadcast on this frequency shared with Cuban exile
programming. Scheduled at 1300-1330 Tuesday is `Gospel of the
Kingdom`, and there is NO Cuban programming any other day of week
during this slot, altho there are two DX programs in Spanish, on Wed &
Thu (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9475 & 5830, May 7 at 1313, both WTWW-1 frequencies are
AWOL, tsk2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENINIG DIGEST)

** U S A. 12050, May 7 at 1421, WEWN Spanish with distorted modulation
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9490, May 6 at 0504, S7-S8 of open carrier, or JBM?
Nothing sked now but both Nauen & Issoudun are registered until 0500:
RMI Spanish via France to Cuba, i.e. R. RepÃblica; and NHK Japanese
via Germany to ME --- more likely the latter not turned off yet, as I
think RR is not currently really running that late (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Correcting time on this one, not 1424, read wrong line in my notes:

** CHINA. 11460, May 5 at 1330, S2-S3 but clear Western classical
music, obviously CNR1 jammer and // another on 11785. Aoki/NDXC shows
11460 one of countless Sound of Hope, Miaoli, Taiwan frequencies with
jamming. My quick survey of WOOB areas from 10 to 15 MHz finds no
others now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 15034-USB, May 5 at 1324, Trenton Military with `no report
received`` over and over from Winnipeg, Calgary, Cold Lake, Edmonton;
and at 1325 NRR from Comox, Victoria, Vancouver, Abbotsford. The
automaton doesn`t seem to care, but drones on endlessly. One suspects
the problem is at Trenton, not all these other air terminals (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 11460, May 5 at 1424, S2-S3 but clear Western classical
music, obviously CNR1 jammer and // another on 11785. Aoki/NDXC shows
11460 one of countless Sound of Hope, Miaoli, Taiwan frequencies with
jamming. My quick survey of WOOB areas from 10 to 15 MHz finds no
others now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6000, May 5 at 0557, RHC English is S9+20 but suptorted,
unlike 6060, 6100, 6165 all better modulation, with produxion
credits, plugging Sunday programs, and reopening Saturday show a bit
before 0600. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 11860, Sat May 4 at 1754, Radio Martà reconfirmed now
active weekends too on this frequency; atop jamming about same as
11930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [non]. 5980, UT Sun May 5 at 0004, no signal from TV MartÃ,
and no jamming either, so this new 22-03 UT broadcast remains M-F/Tue
-Sat only. There is however a JBA carrier, presumably RRI Romanian,
which also moved here, in clear at least on UT Sun & Mon (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENINIG DIGEST)

** GUATEMALA. 4055, UT Sunday May 5 at 0544, TGAV is off already
rather than usual ~0610v* except earlier circa 0400 UT Mondays (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALI. 11640 & 13630, May 4 at 2103, no signals from CRI English
relay, unlike the past few days one and or both audible (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Awake briefly after 1100 UT May 3, checked for pre-sunrise
Mexicans on lowband MW, but nothing to be heard unlike yesterday on
570 & 590, and many more on April 29, 26. How drastically conditions
may change (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 6185, May 4 at 2114, VP S5 signal, JBM at best. Must be
XEPPM, which apparently leaves at least carrier on all day. This
early, little else detectable on 49m besides 6070, 5830 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sunday May 5 at 0004, JBA carrier from
presumed Mighty Farty KBC back on reactivated summer frequency via
GERMANY, instead of 5960 which is vacant. That probably would have
still propagated better, but confronted storm noise level. Maybe
something on 7 MHz band would be better in the `shoulder-season`
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 5 at 1615 UT, K17JN-D, Enid DTV 3ABN
satellator is OFF the air, all six subchannels; sometime, unlogged May
4 I noticed it was back after dead-air black-screens but plenty signal
on May 3.

Now slight tropo enhancement brings Bad signals on RF 42 and RF 18. 42
is surely KBZC-LD OKC, but 18? Could be repack CP channel for KOPX OKC
but it`s still going on RF 50, both in W9WI.com as 200 kW. There are 5
RF 18 translators elsewhere in OK, none likely here (Glenn Hauser,
Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN [and non]. 11670, May 4 at 2105, REE poorly audible on its
weakest frequency due to azimuth, but no RHC clash yet which could be
starting at 2100? No, one RHC schedule shows not until *2300 for Rio
de Janeiro. That is when REE closes 11670 at 2300* M-F; however they
usually stay on for several more minutes of IS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1980 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
May 4 at 2100 on WRMI 9955: *2059 just in time with partial IS & ID
loop, but upcut opening of WOR after my first ten words; fair S8-S9.

Also confirmed on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, UT Sunday May 5 at 0329 about 17
minutes into so started circa 0312; S9+10 vs S9+20 staticrashes. Next:

** U S A. 7490.00, May 4 at 1752, 2057, no trace of WBCQ-6 super-
station test, unlike earlier at 1540 when I did have a weak open
carrier. Meanwhile, 9330 remains always off-frequency from old
transmitter with TOMBS, such as at 1752; 2058 measured on 9330.04.

7490.12, UT Sun May 5 at 0151, WBCQ with J. P. Ferraro`s `Shortwave
Saturday Night`, averaging S9 discussing the Vietnam war. NOT on #6
but obviously still via old off-frequency transmitter. Earlier at
0004, some other show ``live`` as of ``April 3``, while 9330.1 and
5130+ were JBA carriers only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9265V, Saturday May 4 at 1730, WINB presumably with Unique
Radio from Australia, Tim Gaynor`s `Sounds of Your Life`, on new
schedule, but very poor and wobbly signal.

OTOH, until 1729 I had local-quality excellent reception from 12160
WWCR with `The Talking Machine Show` of ancient cylinder music. Only
an occasional slight selective fade tipped that this was SW. However,
much of the time 12160 is not in solid, too close/too high (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15825 & 13845, May 5 at 1322, WWCR gospel huxters are S9+10
with sporadic E boost; by 1424, 15825 down to JBA. But by 1605, DX map
shows estimated Es MUF of 106 MHz with 6m contacts across the country
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5830, May 4 at 1750, WTWW-1 is S9 on night frequency, but
JBM? 9475 is off; at 1836 still JBM 5830 when ham show should be on.
By 2102, 5830 has resumed PPPP on SFA, still not on day frequency 9475
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, May 4 at 2330-2400 approx., WTWW-2 with `Theater Organ
in the Ozarx` confined about to nominal slot; toward the end heard
some of it on stereo webcast, which was running about 5 seconds
*ahead* of SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1130, May 4 at 2055 UT, KLEY Wellington KS is off the air
again; first noted absent May 3 circa 2345 UT, much pre-sunset. Before
then had not noticed any transmission problems (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13660, Sunday May 5 at 1700-1710, no signal via UTwente
SDR, altho HFCC has something brokered by RMI via ISS, FRANCE on days
1/3/5 = Sun/Tue/Thu. Ivo Ivanov assumes it`s clandestine. But
presumably a mistake, as Jeff White says Alameda Bible Fellowship is
running at 1700-1730 M/W/F (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15571.2-USB, May 5 at 1320, VP 2-way in Spanish as I am
making pro-forma check for 15575 KBS so-called North American service:
not a trace of it; while CRI East Turkistan is poorly audible on 15590
