** 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

is something from Encompass ``CHN`` = PRC! via Taiwan, 300 kW at 2

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.

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

** 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

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

the problem is at Trenton, not all these other air terminals (Glenn

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

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,

which also moved here, in clear at least on UT Sun & Mon (Glenn

Mexicans on lowband MW, but nothing to be heard unlike yesterday on

** 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,

** 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

** 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

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

*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

then had not noticed any transmission problems (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

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

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 4 at 1416 UT, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV
signal, the 3ABN satellator, is on air at Good+ signal level, but
black screen and silence on all six subchannels, rather than only
three of them. Boo, hoo.

Hepburn tropo map for 1500 May 4 shows a level-3 blob between Enid and
OKC, but nothing unusual beyond traces of Bad signals on low-power
channels 21 and 42 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9515.007V, May 4 at 0320, VOT English YL talking about

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1979 monitoring: missed checking Friday May 3
at 2200 on WRMI 9955, but presumably replayed. Confirmed UT Saturday
May 4 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, fair. Due to an uploading delay by gh,
1979 continued rather than 1980 for these two times.

Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria observes: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio

WORLD OF RADIO 1980 monitoring: woke up at 1159 UT Sat May 4, one
minute too late to confirm that 1980 had been broadcast as scheduled
at 1130.

As usual WOR cannot be confirmed Saturday May 4 at 1431 on HLR 9485-
CUSB; via UTwente no signal, just super-splash from 9490. Anyway, HLR
probably is repeating 1979 instead of 1980 this weekend.

** U S A. 7490.123v, Friday May 3 at 2119, WBCQ with `Behaviour Night`
ancient music recordings, but too weak in noise level to enjoy.
Earlier today the 500 kW transmitter was reported testing with open
carrier only on 7490 --- I`ve yet to see anyone confirming its exact
frequency which should be much closer to 7490.000. Unfortunately, we
cannot expect any of our favorite programs to become audible as
Superstation time will primarily be for the funders, the flat-earth
``Worlds Last Chance`` ministries.

7490+, UT Saturday May 4 after 0000, William Tell Overture but AAAWWW
hosted this week instead by Pirate Joe Ferraro, from his own studio at
WHVW in NY. Not long before AW calls in from some hamfest in New
Hampshire, and he`s on the horn until 0034 as I keep listening for the
latest info on the 500 kW project, summarizing:

Initial on-air testing has been on 7490 with open carrier only, not
9330 as he had publicized earlier. PJ`s own show `Shortwave Saturday
Night` *may* be on the 500 kW, on its regular schedule 7490 UT Sunday
0100-0400, at the usual azimuth of 245 degrees as on the old antenna.

The 500, transmitter #6, is all water-cooled, including tubes, coils,
vacuum capacitors costing $ 25K each. The whole thing is very complex
and all computer-controlled. Modulation is 95% efficient. Power level
is being brought up slowly; was 135 kW with brief tests to 400 kW. WLC
programming normal sked should begin later this month mainly on 9330.
A new frequency in the ``5-6 MHz band`` will be available at night.
(Nonesuch yet in HFCC,
http://hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A19&broadc=BCQ
but shows hour-by-hour languages and azimuths planned? for 9330 and
still lists the imaginary 15420)

Part of the time I listen on 9330.13v, but as it fades down, back to
7490.12v. At 0034 JP resumes with totally unrelated ``stream of
consciousness`` musings about cars and Detroit, and at 0055 recheck
something about US Grant.

Here`s John Carver`s version: ``Tonight's show started early on 7490.
Pirate Joe is the host this evening while Allan and Angela are at
NearFest. Killing time with mild political talk while waiting for
Allan to call in. Difficult to copy Allan over Pirate Joe's phone
patch. Lot of static this evening. Allan announced that they have been
testing the new transmitter the last two days and are planning to take
it to full power tomorrow. Possibly will be broadcasting tomorrow's
7490 programs over the new transmitter. Most of the program this
evening is devoted to political talk and WHVW items with little about
WBCQ. It was announced that a Go Fund Me page had been started for
WHVW. Show was off the air at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana``

AW`s latest twit circa 12 UT May 4: ``More power today for the worlds
superstation. Hopefully to 500kw. Testing on 7490khz. Later this week
on 9330khz. One megawatt average load for 500kw out at average
modulation. Wow. All for you the special shortwave listeners. Support
us. The last free speech radio voice. Ground.`` Ground refers to his
shot of some grounding cables by some posts, supporting the feedline?

After WWCR is finished with 7490 at 1500, May 4 at 1540 check, I do
have an open carrier on 7490.002, which must be WBCQ-6, but it`s only
S2-S3, certainly not Super. Of course if this were put on 11, 13 or 15
MHz in the daytime it would propagate much better, but no plans for
that. Could really be 7490.000 within my margin of error (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

connotes religion, at least at this daypart.

** U S A. 9330.17v, May 2 at 0036, WBCQ is S9+20 with TOMBS about
Planet X, but doubt it`s the new 500 kW transmitter which AW said
would start testing with RF May 1, so we have been checking it all
day. I expect initially they will not be running it full-bore, but
also expect it would not be off-frequency like the old transmitter.

Random chex later May 2 still find no sign of powerful new transmitter
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1980, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11712.3 approx., May 2 at 1412, SSB talk, but cannot get
it to resolve by tuning USB or LSB back and forth. Could be third
harmonic of a ham around 3904, where nothing is heard, lower band not
propagating in the daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
