** BRAZIL. 11815, Oct 10 at 0059, S1-S3 with flutter maybe English?
Then song plays right thru hourtop 0101+. Must be R. Brasil Central,
only station known active at this hour; nor was there an off-frequency
tipoff (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer survey, Oct 10 at 0104-0111: 12880, Chinese
S1-S2 with flutter; 12820, 13020, 13130, JBA carriers on traditional
channels; 13530 & 13920 & 14920, JBA S1 with flutter; 16100 JBA with
CODAR QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6145, Oct 10 at 0042, RHC English jumps again to here from
6165, still // 6000; clearing 6160- for Area 51. Something`s
fortunately wrong at RHC. 0625 recheck, still 6145; also in English:
6100, 6060 with humbuzz, and 5040 on late (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 11880, Oct 10 at 0101, S9/+20 of dead air with
some hum; finally cut on modulation 0102.6 of KBSWR in Spanish about
NK rapprochement. Was this Grimesland`s failure or somewhere
upstreamm? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 13840, Oct 10 at 0620, RNZP again tonight on frequency
extended instead of 11725, discussion about divorce and marriage, good
S9. Nothing on 11725 or 7245. That would be the `TED Radio Hour`, from
NPR, Sunday 7:04 pm local:
https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/schedules/20211010
Leave it to NZ to have the good sense to broadcast some US NPR
programs on SW, unlike any of our own stations.

Altho always misleadingly headed as effective from start of season
March 28, instead of latest revision date, the How To Listen sked has
belatedly now been updated to eliminate 11725 in our late-nights:

** OKLAHOMA. `Weekend Radio` comedy show from WCLV Cleveland has a
competition to present funny faux-pas from the press, so we submitted
this from our local paper:
https://www.w4uvh.net/EnidEagle_cannibals_notated.jpg

It won the prize of CD already received, Bridge 9470, ``Berl Senofsky
in Concert at EXPO `58 Brussels``, violin and piano music by Ravel,
Bartók, Rachmaninoff, Ysaÿe, Creston, Wieniawski, Bach, Brahms2.

Here`s a lo-fi capture of that segment on the UT Oct 10 show at 0326:

Furthermore, as we later notified Sagebrush Bob, the Eagle ed/pub
later wrote a whole column about this:

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2107 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
October 9 at new 2330 on WRMI 5950, VG S9+30 into TN SDR.

Also confirmed on NEXUS-IBA webcast-only at 2334 about 3 or 4 minutes
behind WRMI, so they must still be sticking in some FS News first,
probably causing a few minutes of WOR to be chopped at the end.

Also confirmed UT Sunday October 10 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG S9+30
direct but not enough to eliminate S7/S9 storm noise level from South
Dakota/Minnesota and Bahamas/Cuba.

Not confirmed UT Sunday Oct 10 circa 0315 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM: still
completely off the air as it was at 1930.

Zzz past 1300 Sun Oct 10; did anyone hear the new 1230 on WMRI Europe
via Channel 292, Germany, 9670? And how was the QRM from Vietnamese
clandestine via Taiwan, and jamming? [BTW, even I slipped and called
it ``WRMI`` on WOR 2107]. Next:

2000 UT Sunday IRRS 918-Italy
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW
2230 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW; 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW

Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support;
thanks this week to Kelly Bogues, Colorado for a contribution via
PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com
a.k.a.. Rabishu, he says, ``Thanks Glenn for all the many many years
of WOR. I have been hearing you for decades. You're a shortwave
inspiration and I will always remain inspired by you.``

One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to
Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.9v, UT Sun Oct 10 at 0616, WBCQ on very late again with
some classic rock, S8-S9, a regular weekly thing? Last time caught at
same hour was Oct 4, UT Mon not Sun. Either appears on WBCQ program
sked? Of course not! Supposedly off at 0330* Sun & Mon and every night
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Oct 10 at 0015, WTWW-2 with `TOUTA` already;
direct as I`m not near a $ tereo webcast. 0031 after playing one of his
own compositions, Bob Heil mentions that from now on it`s an hour
long, and next week`s will be the ``best ever`` special with his
mentor George Wright. It ends at 0055, into Tedad. Bob never dares
specify an exact time for the show, but if it were an hour this week,
must have started about 2354 Saturday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4875-USB, Oct 10 at 0046, MARS net designator 4IX7, and
some Airforce-type calls like AFZ4W#. No sign of R. Roraima, Boa
Vista, 4875 supposedly on till 0300, nor anytime lately (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6925-LSB, Oct 10 at 0039, 2-way in Brazilian, while I am
not hearing any N American pirates on the Saturday night band (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7620, Oct 100 at 0618, surprise mixture of talk show
about Medicare, and weaker audio sounds like Brother Scare; shortly
cuts off by itself. Smax of mixing product between SW and local MW,
but can`t figure out how nor ever heard before here (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 18241.4-USB approx., Oct 10 at 1416, JBA 2-way not
English, maybe Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
