** CUBA. 6165, Dec 17 at 0657, RHC English back here instead of 9700, S9+20; at 0659 ``Ed Newman`` announcing the end of the second hour, so if on after 0700 it would be the first hour rerererepeated. Something`s always wrong at RHC; alternating 9700/6165? The Other Side:
``The Fidel Castro Center: A Museum of Ignominy --- As thousands of Cubans died of Covid-19, many without receiving medical care, the regime was spending millions of dollars to build the Fidel Castro Ruz Center...`` Roberto Álvarez Quiñones, Los Ángeles 16 Dic 2021 - 20:58 CET https://diariodecuba.com/cuba/1639684701_36251.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13680, Dec 17 at 2121, the inimitable Brazuguese style of RHC, S8/S9+10 and undermodulated. Official sked has this on 15370 for Europe, but NO RHC frequencies are active on 19m. I do recall 13680 used in seasons past. EiBi shows nothing anywhen on 13680; Aoki shows CNR1 jamming and SOH from 2200. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11880, Dec 17 at 2128, RHC French, S9+5/20 but distorted and hummy. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9899.587, Dec 17 at 2158, into UTwente R. Cairo S9+25 but scratchy just-barely modulation; let play in background and noticed noise jump when it cut off at 2246*. Had it earlier circa 2120 direct as JBA carrier only on about 9899.6. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO is preëmpted as expected on third Fridays, from IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria, and AM Italia 918, but I check anyway for their other frequencies, Dec 17 at 1920, tune-in via Noale SDR to 918 kHz, first sounds like QRM but just in time for ``Radio City, the station of the cars`` ID. 1323 kHz is supposed to be its next frequency, but would it have to be the same transmitter? Something else there now. LW 207 kHz has JBA non-// talk, Iceland? UTwente is getting 7290 well but not the harmonic on 14580. 207 kHz, Dec 17 at 2146 UT, now via Noale, I detect S S S in Morse, so it`s *still* playing the Dec 12 special loop, then talk which Fabrizio Magrone says was a recording of Marconi himself. SDR is getting a stronger het from 207.646 kHz, birdie? See also USA: WOR monitoring (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 7445, Dec 17 at 0704, S9/+10 of ``Moon River``, a station not dedicated to news on the hour, 0705 Japanese YL. Aoki shows KBS World Radio this hour in Korean via Woofferton! But I`m sure it`s Japanese. O, another Aoki entry for NHK direct from Yamata in Japanese at 0655-0900, so no sign of WOF. HFCC also shows them both but to very diverse targets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Dec 17 at 2130, NO signal on REE to S America, but the other three are audible in Spanish overlain by autotimesignal: 11670 S5/S6, 12030 S8/S9, 9690 S9+25/35. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Dec 17 at 2300, VOT is S9+30/40 with good modulation except for a light squeal into UTwente, opening English claiming this is the Friday 1330 broadcast on 12035! So they play it back for the rest of the day, but why don`t they account for this in announcements? Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2326 recheck `Did You Know?` segment about a Museum of Cheese. I must say that VOT comes up with some oddball topix. Plays IS loop after signoff announcement, but as soon as a German ID is inserted, cut off the air at 2356.5, uncovering Chinese from East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems -- so no bonus German hour today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. BBC World News America, via PBS and delayed an hour on OETA, Dec 17 at 2323 UT has a reporter asserting that North Korea is ``tiny, impoverished`` --- NO, and yes: THE TINY TRAP (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 11720, Dec 17 at 2127, Afro pop music at S9+33, the only hour per day when Greenville airs VOA in English, mostly music every day but never anything beyond narrow pop, mostly African, especially Fridays, `Music Time in Africa`. Achieves bigsig here almost due west off the back of beam almost due east. It`d be interesting to know what percentage of 250 kW be ``wasted`` on us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2117 monitoring: confirmed first broadcasts UT Friday December 17 at 0130 on WRMIs: 7780, S9+5/20 into UTwente, 5850 VG direct. However, very intrusive couple seconds of music between ID and WOR start; and a few seconds at end lost by automation overlap which we have supposedly compensated for by at least 2 seconds of silence at end of WOR files. Also confirmed UT Fri Dec 17 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, JBA to Brasil SDR where it`s aimed, fair to Maryland SDR off the back. Also confirmed Fri Dec 17 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, new time, S9/+10 direct and no jamming audible. Not confirmed Dec 17 at 1915 on IRRS 7290 and AM Italia 918, since it`s the third Friday preëmpted for Radio City; see ITALY [and non]. Confirmed Fri Dec 17 at 2144 the 2130 on AM Italia, 918 kHz, Villa Estense, S9+10 over QRM presumably Madrid. Was not listening at 2158* when they chopped off my last minute last week. Not on 207 kHz. Next: 0230 UT Saturday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2030vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0530] 1330 UT Sunday WMRI Europe via Ch 292 Germany 9670 2100 UT Sunday IRRS 918-Italy, 207?-Italy, 1323?-Italy 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 2330 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0130 UT Monday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0400vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support. Thanks this week to William T. Hassig, Mt. Prospect, IL, for a Winter Solstice contribution on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 15770, Dec 17 at 1604, this WRMI is back on already after yesterday`s crash, with SMTV cult, S9+10. 9455, however is still off but at this time occupied by Chinese with SAH, i.e. CNR1 jamming and RFA Chinese via Saipan, per Aoki this hour only on M/W/F. While the other WRMI, 9395 achieves S9/+10. 15770 also on Dec 17 at 2115, with Xmas stuff from R. Prague in English. Jeff White says 15770 resumed later on Dec 16. Still no 9455 at 2132 but JBA carrier which would be ChiCom jamming and/or RFA Chinese via Kuwait (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15610, Dec 17 at 2125, JBA carrier direct, surely WEWN English. Meant to check a remote whether it`s still horribly squealy like last time, but did not get around to it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Low noon MW bandscan, December 17 at 1834-1840 UT, just after local mean noon at 1832; from the open kite field in northern Enid. Convenient but not the best spot, since there is still line noise in parts of the band, far from any power lines. I almost postponed it because of storms in E Oklahoma, but found only occasional crashes were not a problem. It`s also too close to my 960 & 1390 locals, about equidistant between their sites, desensitizing some 20 kHz above and below each on the caradio. As expected, there are some signs of skywave remnants, altho extended groundwave may be hard to differentiate. I concentrate only on the `open` frequencies. 530, SAH between two JBA signals; one would be HAR/TIS in S Kansas 560, Missouri, Springfield mentioned, KWTO; CCI probably KLZ Denver 600, JBA and SAH, probably WMT IA and KTBB TX 630, JBA and SAH, probably KHOW Denver and KYFI* St Louis 670, CCI slow SAH: KLTT Denver always, adding WSCR Chicago 720, CCI medium SAH, KSAH TX and WGN IL. No others remotely possible 830, JBA probably WCCO 840+, line noise level kix up! Only a few obs: 1130, KLEY Wellington KS modulating music!! After weeks, 24h dead air 1250, Spanish, so KYYS Kansas City KS is making it 1660, algo, so KWOD Kansas City KS 1690, talk in English, sounds like WVON Berwyn-Chicago, skywave! Must try somewhen/where else. A potential fence beverage site is NW of Enid near the SH 45/152 junxion (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0058 UT December 18 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

See also USA: WOR monitoring (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 7445, Dec 17 at 0704, S9/+10 of ``Moon River``, a station not dedicated to news on the hour, 0705 Japanese YL. Aoki shows KBS World Radio this hour in Korean via Woofferton! But I`m sure it`s Japanese. O, another Aoki entry for NHK direct from Yamata in Japanese at 0655-0900, so no sign of WOF. HFCC also shows them both but to very diverse targets (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Dec 17 at 2130, NO signal on REE to S America, but the other three are audible in Spanish overlain by autotimesignal: 11670 S5/S6, 12030 S8/S9, 9690 S9+25/35. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960, Dec 17 at 2300, VOT is S9+30/40 with good modulation except for a light squeal into UTwente, opening English claiming this is the Friday 1330 broadcast on 12035! So they play it back for the rest of the day, but why don`t they account for this in announcements? Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2326 recheck `Did You Know?` segment about a Museum of Cheese. I must say that VOT comes up with some oddball topix. Plays IS loop after signoff announcement, but as soon as a German ID is inserted, cut off the air at 2356.5, uncovering Chinese from East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems -- so no bonus German hour today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. BBC World News America, via PBS and delayed an hour on OETA, Dec 17 at 2323 UT has a reporter asserting that North Korea is ``tiny, impoverished`` --- NO, and yes: THE TINY TRAP (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 11720, Dec 17 at 2127, Afro pop music at S9+33, the only hour per day when Greenville airs VOA in English, mostly music every day but never anything beyond narrow pop, mostly African, especially Fridays, `Music Time in Africa`. Achieves bigsig here almost due west off the back of beam almost due east. It`d be interesting to know what percentage of 250 kW be ``wasted`` on us (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2117 monitoring: confirmed first broadcasts UT Friday December 17 at 0130 on WRMIs: 7780, S9+5/20 into UTwente, 5850 VG direct. However, very intrusive couple seconds of music between ID and WOR start; and a few seconds at end lost by automation overlap which we have supposedly compensated for by at least 2 seconds of silence at end of WOR files. Also confirmed UT Fri Dec 17 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, JBA to Brasil SDR where it`s aimed, fair to Maryland SDR off the back. Also confirmed Fri Dec 17 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, new time, S9/+10 direct and no jamming audible. Not confirmed Dec 17 at 1915 on IRRS 7290 and AM Italia 918, since it`s the third Friday preëmpted for Radio City; see ITALY [and non]. Confirmed Fri Dec 17 at 2144 the 2130 on AM Italia, 918 kHz, Villa Estense, S9+10 over QRM presumably Madrid. Was not listening at 2158* when they chopped off my last minute last week. Not on 207 kHz.

Thanks this week to William T. Hassig, Mt. Prospect, IL, for a Winter Solstice contribution on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 15770, Dec 17 at 1604, this WRMI is back on already after yesterday`s crash, with SMTV cult, S9+10. 9455, however is still off but at this time occupied by Chinese with SAH, i.e. CNR1 jamming and RFA Chinese via Saipan, per Aoki this hour only on M/W/F. While the other WRMI, 9395 achieves S9/+10. 15770 also on Dec 17 at 2115, with Xmas stuff from R. Prague in English. Jeff White says 15770 resumed later on Dec 16. Still no 9455 at 2132 but JBA carrier which would be ChiCom jamming and/or RFA Chinese via Kuwait (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15610, Dec 17 at 2125, JBA carrier direct, surely WEWN English. Meant to check a remote whether it`s still horribly squealy like last time, but did not get around to it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Low noon MW bandscan, December 17 at 1834-1840 UT, just after local mean noon at 1832; from the open kite field in northern Enid. Convenient but not the best spot, since there is still line noise in parts of the band, far from any power lines. I almost postponed it because of storms in E Oklahoma, but found only occasional crashes were not a problem. It`s also too close to my 960 & 1390 locals, about equidistant between their sites, desensitizing some 20 kHz above and below each on the caradio. As expected, there are some signs of skywave remnants, altho extended groundwave may be hard to differentiate. I concentrate only on the `open` frequencies. 530, SAH between two JBA signals; one would be HAR/TIS in S Kansas 560, Missouri, Springfield mentioned, KWTO; CCI probably KLZ Denver 600, JBA and SAH, probably WMT IA and KTBB TX 630, JBA and SAH, probably KHOW Denver and KYFI* St Louis 670, CCI slow SAH: KLTT Denver always, adding WSCR Chicago 720, CCI medium SAH, KSAH TX and WGN IL. No others remotely possible 830, JBA probably WCCO 840+, line noise level kix up! Only a few obs: 1130, KLEY Wellington KS modulating music!! After weeks, 24h dead air 1250, Spanish, so KYYS Kansas City KS is making it 1660, algo, so KWOD Kansas City KS 1690, talk in English, sounds like WVON Berwyn-Chicago, skywave! Must try somewhen/where else. A potential fence beverage site is NW of Enid near the SH 45/152 junxion (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0058 UT December 18 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

** CUBA. 5965-5996 and 6013-6050, Dec 16 at 0725, approx. range of splatter from jamming against nothings on 5980, 6030; worse than usual, QRMing 5970 WEWN and 5995 Mali. Something`s always wrong at the Dentrocuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
