Logs
** CANADA. 15034 USB, March 10 at 0053, Trenton Military is still on
and receiving reports; EiBi shows 1100-2400, with 6754 USB at
2310-1100; but is there only one transmitter? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. JBA carriers with FE Doppler flutter in OOB ranges + 18 & 21
MHz bands, March 10 at 0052: 14980, 15920, 18900, 21530. Stronger
flutterers with some Chinese modulation: 18970 S3/S6, 21490 S2/S4, and
21800 which cut off after 0100* timesignal. Then I recheck the others
and they`re all gone too. No doubt jammers against Sound of Hope or
something. Quite a few other inband signals of similar quality (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9650, March 10 at 0048, music and RHC IDs in Spanish, S6/S9.
11760 is off, but 15230 is on at S3/S4 seems same but
suppressed/distorted = suptorted modulation. Nowhere else found until
at 0111, 6000 S9+20/30 but JBM; and deadair or maybe JBM on 6180,
S9+20, presumably failing to relay China. And 5025 Rebelde is AWOL at
0108. Some things always wrong at RHC, RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, March 10 at 1932 check, RHC English, S7 into Maryland
SDR, thus confirming that as a Running Dog of Yanqui Imperialism, Cuba
has advanced to EDT on the same date as their detested escapees in
Miami; so much if not all RHC programming, transmissions a real UT
hour earlier, to the extent that there be any ``schedule``. 11760 not
on, and one never knows whether 15140 will be. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TIBET [non]. 11734.80, March 10 at 0105, something S4/S7 but JBM;
first guess would be Korea North, but not sked until 0300. Nothing at
this time in Aoki, but EiBi shows Akashvani in Tibetan and ChiCom
jamming. Bad mod and inaccuracy favor INDIA. Only one signal; maybe
jammers correctly figured that was unnecessary. VU2JOS confirms
``11735`` is the current AIR Tibetan frequency, from Delhi (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 245 MCW kHz, March 10 at 0724 UT, ND beacon struggling
against OG&E noise level, something new/unusual. Call maybe FU, but
can`t be sure. The closest match in RNA list is: FS, 100 or 300 watts
`Rokky`, Sioux Falls, SD. I logged once before, Sept 6, 2022 at 0642
UT when it was listed as 400 watts, as still per dxinfocentre.com.
Another 245 possibility now would be HU, Terre Haute IN (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4875 USB, March 10 at 0109, Airforce MARS type net with NCS
asking about relays. Net designator: 4TX1 - does that refer to Texas?
Sounds familiar; yes, my previous log from 2021y: ``UNIDENTIFIED.
4875-USB, Oct 10 at 0046, MARS net designator 4IX7, and some
Airforce-type calls like AFZ4W#`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2233 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday March 10
at 0100, S9/+10 direct on WRMI 9955 with Cuban pulse jamming audible
underneath. From next week: 0000 UT Sunday.

Also confirmed UT Sunday March 10 at 0514 about 3 minutes into so
started circa 0511 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+15/20. The Houston
hamsat net playback from March 5 did not start until 0400 UT, an hour
later than nominal 9 pm CST. From next week: WOR at nominal 0315v
UT.

Not confirmed Sunday March 10 at 1030 on WRMI 9955: I happen to awaken
just then and hear instead TOMBS before and after 1030 //5890 WWCR.
WOR should have earlied from 1130 to 1030 UT to stay at 6:30 am ET --
but closer inspexion of the skedgrid shows System B is now on Internet
only until 1100.

If you have WRMI skedgrid bookmarked, it still goes to the old B23
one. The new ``A24`` one, jumping that gun, restoring Xmtr 2 and
Tuesday columns, is at a different google spreadsheet link you need to
reach from here: https://www.wrmi.net/index.php/programming/

** U S A. 960, March 10 at 0119 UT, during a TA 9/kHz -1 bandscan, I
notice no slop from local KGWA Enid upon 953 or 962 kHz, is it off?
No, it`s on but dead air. Its 100.9 translator tail wagging the 960
dog is also silent. Immediately I deploy my altazimuth wrist-mounted
DX-398 to null what`s left of KGWA. There are several weak stations,
but one is slightly more dominant. KGWA blasts back on at 0130 with
adstring and weather, 0133 back to dead air. So I resume listening
intently trying to pull some IDable info. It`s basketball with a team
named Tigers, low score so far, 11-11; mentioned Kansas?, and at two
different times worldunion.com? in ad. Must not be that as it`s
something in Shenzhen, China, and the website is nothing but a
placeholder. 0200 UT, KGWA blasts on again with legal ID as ``Talk
100.9``, AM 960 an afterthought, and Townhall News until 0206 legal ID
again, twice, 0206.6 fraxion of a word from whatever far-right
extremist network talk program is supposed to be on, and back to DA.
THN not among the nets listed for KGWA in NRC AM Log.

Among other 960s I`ve heard before during KGWA`s `Fox-hole` at local
midnight a few years ago are KGKL San Angelo TX, and KNEB Scottsbluff
NE, but searching on those does not find any Tiger games now, or ever.
It`s far too common a team name. A better possibility is KZIM Cape
Girardeau MO. Its website is inconclusive, but at 0238 UT the stream
is carring a Mizzou Tigers vs LSU game, so that`s it! KZIM is also at
a more favorable angle than the others to take advantage of KGWA`s
null. KGWA has been on an STA of 250/250 U1 which expires March 19
unless renewed again; otherwise 1000/1000 U3. Maybe that help such DX
a little. It was reading only S9+10/20 from a few miles away, or 1.61
times as many km. KZIM, 500 watts night, has a pretty good ``butterfly
wing`` lobe thisaway; notch to the NW so not protecting KGWA at all
(Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, March 10 at 0118:
855-2 and 1098 are the onlies I can outmake, surely Spains and UK
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5990-5995-6000, March 10 at 0718 UT, noise blob but does
not sound like DRM. Ordinarily would hear at least remnant of MALI
5995 AM; out of order? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO SCHEDULE updated for DST,
to be posted by 0500 UT March 10:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html

DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS updated for DST,
two sesquiweeks of confusion,
to be posted by 0500 UT March 10:
https://www.w4uvh.net/dxpgms.html

** ANTARCTICA. At 2204 March 9, LRA36 already on, good into Arg SDR,
seems more like 15476.00 CUSB. 2209 weather conditions. Maybe nom.
sked is now 22-24 UT Sats. Was not on much before 2200. M&W
conversations, musix. 2355 wrapping up today`s program with some
credits, music, ceases at 2400.6* Seems like still a hum, but no
reduced carrier visible or audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.002, Sat Mar 9 at 2303, VOT English not not off the
air, S9+40/45 into UTwente with news; 2318 about geothermal, 2321
outro `The Energy Agenda`, music. 2327 two-minute multilingual ID
filler reel, music. 2335 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, music. 2342
`Turkey`s Geomarked [sic] Products`, brief and missed subject. 2344
``with-you-every-hour`` promo, 2345 music. 2351 totally wrong sign-off
schedule. Something`s always awry at Ankara. Fragment of IS and
chopoff at 2353* unconvering XJRTV, std. denunciations (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2233 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday March 9 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S9+35/40 direct.

Also confirmed UT Saturday March 9 at 0500 on WTWW 5085, S9/+10 into
NH SDR; at 0513, S9+40/52 direct. I also check for the parasitic spurs
which were JBA at best; now only a trace on 5072.1, while the match on
5097.9 is totally obscured by huge uteblob. Before and after, IDs as
Ancient World Radio on WTWW; played a bit of music until 0531* & 0531*
- came back on again at least once before finished. From next week:
0400 UT Sat.

Also confirmed Saturday March 9 at 1550 the 1530 on SW Radio, Germany,
6160.001, S9+10 into UTwente, but ACI from 6165 - I thought it was
Russian, but listed as Pashto from CRI via Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN.

Also confirmed Saturday March 9 at 1700 & 2030 on WRN N America
webcast, and at 2100 on WRN Europe. Also confirmed Saturday March 9 at
2030 on WRMI webcast only, 9955 not on.

Also confirmed Saturday March 9 at 1830 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.002, S9/+20 into UTwente.

Also confirmed Saturday March 9 from 2031 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, S9+20
groundwave into nearby SDR. From next week: 1930v. Next:

# = one UT hour earlier from next week

** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, UT Sat Mar 9 at 0040 into NH
SDR: 3265 off. 5130.226 `ATATT`. 6159.931 TOMBS. 7489.955 FKB.
9330.000 WLCR in Portuguese. At 0100 sounds like a new show, spring
coming, 84 degrees today in Deland of Fla. Right into politix:
``elephant in the room``, ``our country will be destroyed`` if Biden &
Democrats remain in power; how can they be so totally 180 degrees
delusional, when by all objective evidence, it`s *rump and his cult
who want to replace democracy with dictatorship. I can listen no
further. Recheck about 0150 he`s reading-cold some items from
just-published Free Radio Weekly, only frequencies, names, maybe
music, including one or two of mine, with no further details (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Saturday, March 09 2024

Logs
** CUBA. 5025, March 8 at 0823, S9+25 of dead air once again from R.
Rebelde. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 13650, March 8 at 2314, no signal from CRI music default
instead of Portuguese relay; 15230 no signal either which once
substituted. BUT 15140 is on late with RHC Spanish S9+, good
modulation. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, oK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440v, March 8 at 2157, again no signal from R. Cairo in
English; SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11915, March 8 at 2156 and still 2309, horrible
noiseroar continues from SBA, direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Friday March 8 at 2300, token English from SNR,
skipping any news, right into `special` about an art fair north of
Madrid, with 200 galleries from around the world, called ARCO?
S9+10/30 direct, interviewing various participants, such as at 2315
from the Caribbean with blue ice cream, visual elements left entirely
to the imagination (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 8 at 2313, JBA carrier direct, and 9610 a
stronger JBA carrier, so which is VOT? By 2324 I check UTwente:
neither! Chinese on 5960, Mongolian on 9610, the understations
promoted to overstations. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Both close to .000 unlike TRT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2233 monitoring: confirmed Friday
March 8 at 2130 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S8 into UTwente
across Europe but noisy.

Also confirmed Friday March 8, JIP the last few minutes from *2155
cut-on of WRMI 9955, S9+5/10 into Maryland SDR. It was already running
from 2130 on the System B program feed, supposedly internet only. I
was checking whether it would come on an hour earlier by 2055 with IS
& ID loop, like yesterday, but not today. Who knows how this will go
with EDT?

Also confirmed Friday March 8 at 2310 the 2300 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10
direct, no jamming audible. From next week: at 2200 UT; also a real
hour earlier then marked #. Next:
