** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 25 at 1504, NO signal from LRA36
into Brazilian SDRs this Saturday; I let one run anyway until 1600,
nothing but S4 of noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12000, Sept 25 at 0156, RHC English S9 at 2 x 6000 where it
is S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 7157, 7215, 7335, 9565, 11860, 11930, 6030, Sept 25 at 0614,
DentroCuban Jamming Command, where something is always wrong, still
grinding on its two favorite 40m hamband channels as for weeks now;
and R. Martí frequencies which are never on the air overnight; 7335 is
especially strong, but no other 7s. Just think what the cost of all
this electrical waste could provide the suffering Cuban people in
sufficient nutrition, medical care, etc.! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 5025, Sept 25 at 0619, R. Rebelde is off! No Perú
to be heard now, but less QRM to 5020 JBA carrier presumed Solomonic.
However, 5040 RHC is still on in Spanish, S9+20/30 splashing unimpeded
as far down as 5025. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. 9370, Sept 25 at 0602, JBA S2-S3 talk in unknown
language where normally I hear nothing. Aoki shows it`s R. Farda via
Lampertheim, GERMANY at 0300-0630. At 0630-1100 site switches to
Kuwait; 1100-1230 back to Lam. In fact nothing but USAGM outlets on
9370; later and earlier, RFA and VOA via Tajikistan, Kuwait,
Philippines. 31m is hopping from Europe at 0600+; much stronger 9420
Greece, 9670 Germany (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9+, Sept 25 at 0613, NO signal from VON in Hausa. I
tire of tracking it every night, but I would say at least half the
time it`s missing; you never know whether it will be (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring: confirmed UT

** U S A. 9950 & 9960, Sept 25 at 0606, TOMBS modulation is JBA on
plus and minus 5 kHz spurs out of 9955 WRMI, unusually strong in the
nightmiddle S9+30. First time I have detected such, but like the 4975
spur out of 4980, reconfirmed at 0623. Perhaps they are far enough
`down` to be negligible if WRMI even be aware of them. When 9955 is so
strong, I suspect it`s really on a more northerly antenna than the
nominal 160 degrees attributed 24/7 to XMTR 3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5059 & 5111 approx., Sept 25 at 0620, traces of spur
carriers which work out as 2nd-orders out of 5085 WTWW-2. I.e. twice
the ~13 kHz offsets of the first-order ones circa 5072 & 5098. Just as
I tune in, music stops but dead carrier stays on. Amazingly, no one
else seems ever to report the painfully obvious closer ones, let alone
their doubles. Something`s always weird at WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 4840, Sept 25 at 0624, WWCR in dead air yet again at S9+60!
instead of dead Stair, who continues haunting us on 3215, 5890, as
well as dead Scott on 5935. A trifecta anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

13130 & 13190 JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Sept 24 at 2200, token English from REE is only
S6-S9 here; 11940 second in strength S6-S8 but distorted again/still;
15520 S3-S5 and 11670 even worse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2105 monitoring: confirmed first
broadcasts on WRMIs, UT Friday September 24 at 0130: 5850 VG S9+20/30
direct; 7780 S9+10 but sounds much weaker and noisier.

Also confirmed UT Fri Sept 24 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, S7-S9 somewhat
noisy into Bonaire, preceded by IS & ID loop until ``top of the hour``
[not]; WOR playback on this one sounds slightly reverbed.

Also confirmed Fri Sept 24 at 1815 on IRRS via Italia AM 918 kHz, VG
S9+25 into nearby Noale SDR; tuned in at 1811 during a COVID
discussion about nurses on strike at St. Vincent hospital,
Massachusetts, which was chopped off in progress for quick IRRS ID and
WOR. Supposed to be // 7290 IRRS monitored on UTwente: its carrier was
on by 1811, S9/+10, but modulation not turned on until 1816 as the WOR
theme and billboard were almost finished. I hope they both stayed with
WOR until it finished.

Also confirmed on 918 only, Fri Sept 24 at 2030, as above but now with
slight music undercurrent QRM, Spain? This one also interrupted
another talk program in American accent about T****. Now that we`re on
918 Friday at 1815 already, it might be more diverse to move the 2030
replay from Friday to Saturday, if feasible. Next:

** U S A. 7489.9v, Fri Sept 24 at 2207, WBCQ S7-S9 with rock music
before and after a brief transmitter break; 2221 bluegrass; despite
schedule showing `Tom Call Theater` this hour after `Behaviour Night`
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.9v, UT Sat Sept 25 at 0000, WBCQ with `AAAWWW` -- first
I try webcasts of 7490 and // Area 51, but the theme and interjexions
are into the red, overmodulating/distorting, so I bring up 7489.9 on
Maryland SDR where the audio is axually better tho still too loud. The
whole hour is a rant. First against people buried in their devices
even at New Smyrna Beach. Says they drove the 1800 miles from
Monticello to Deland of Fla --- well, the air distance is only 1398
miles, so they must have made a lot of detours. 0026-0039 reading a
long propaganda piece about T****`s alleged achievements compared to
``puppet`` Biden. Gets in a dig at the government for trying to
silence free speech on WBCQ. Recommends watching old B&W TV shows from
the 60s where the good guys always won, such as `Combat`. 0054 finally
datestamp as 24 of Sept, YOOLF 2021, at Studio 9 in Florida, on 7490
and 6160. Angela gets to do the prayer, 0101 over to Hal Turner. John
Carver`s version:

``Tonight's show started on time on 4790, 6160 and 7490. Over the
theme music Allan says, Hey, get your guns. Allan and Angela in the
studio in Fla. Opening talk about the number of young people seen
riding bicycles on the beach with one hand on the handlebars and the
other hand holding a device which they were watching instead of
looking around them. Some talk about their midnight run to Fla and the
number of distracted drivers on the road using their phones or
watching TVs in the vehicles. Allan reads a piece about Biden which
morphs into a pro Trump piece listing all of his alleged
accomplishments at 0027. Pro Trump talk continues after the reading is
finished. Then some talk about the "great filter". Reading of emails
at 0054. Closing prayer at 0059 was given by Angela. Program was off
the air at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Sept 24 at 0155, WRNO is back *on* with gospel huxter
in English: I check it just as the WOR guy on 5850 mentions it being
off for two sesquiweeks as of Sept 21. S9+30 but distorted (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Even without COVID we have not been traveling much, let
alone overseas. If that is your case, you might want to
armchair-travel via some of the regular shows on the PBS Create
channel. In OK it`s OETA-3, but not on Suddenlink cable. Fortunately,
we can usually get it off the air from KETA-13. I assume most PBS
stations carry it on one of their subchannels, whether or not cable
systems comply. Streaming may be available somewhere, either from PBS
stations or from individual program websites you could search out.
OETA confines its live streaming to main PBS channel only.

Here are such shows on the following typical week`s schedule, each
repeated several times; and as evergreens, some of them may be years
old, before anyone would mask. My most often seen/favorite ones are
atop:

Rick Steves' Europe [mostly; date produced always shows at end]
Samantha Brown's Places to Love
Born to Explore with Richard Wiese
Joseph Rosendo's Travelscope
Two for the Road

Canvasing The World with Sean Diediker
Painting and Travel with Roger & Sarah Bansemer
Seeing The USA
Cycle Around Japan Highlights
Journeys In Japan
Let's Go, Minnesota! (Hometown Create)
Outside: Beyond The Lens
Passion Italy

A couple more are only on the PBS World channel:

The Good Road
Colorado Experience

There are some others which focus on cuisine in different countries.
Create topix mostly include do-it-yourself, crafts, gardening,
painting, cooking, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK)

** ANTARCTICA [non]. Any RNASG? Did not get around to checking for
LRA36 this Wednesday Sept 22 until 1608 UT: NO signal on
15475.98-RCUSB into Brasil SDR. Has it come and gone already; did
anyone hear it or try to earlier? Yes: Sam Sánchez, Oregon replies on
WOR iog:

``Subject: Re: [WOR] Antarctica today? --- I caught them today via
Brazil SDR around 1550 UTC, off at the top of the hour-ish. Nothing
via Iceland. Sorry for the inexact times - I was multi-tasking. ;-)``

Then I tuned down to 15475.00-USB to detect a reduced carrier if any,
none, but at 1609 Sept 22 there is very brief 2-way in Spanish
INTRUDING on that exact frequency. Will leave it there for a while.
Another longer contact at 1617, but colloquial and can`t understand.
Probably these nothing to do with Antarctica (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 9665.968V, Sept 22 at 2354, gospel huxter in Brazuguese,
S5-S8; RVM is getting closer & closer to a full kHz off nominal.
Frequency wobbling slightly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-USB, Sept 22 at 2358, dense rock music at
S8-S9; 2405 YL ID as Mix Radio, International. 6940-6945 area is
normally avoided due to ute bonker circa 6942 but none of that now.
More reports here including from MRI herself:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,86702.0.html

``Thanks for tuning in to MRI. Just doing a test after restoring my
windows backup partition out to the stream TX remote location. I am
still working on the QSL’s from the classical show. Doing a little
over 8k audio. « Last Edit: September 22, 2021, 2359 UTC by M R I »``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11940, Wed Sept 22 at 2200, same via Maryland and UTwente
SDRs, this is the only useful frequency for token English, but it`s
distorted like on Monday, not Tuesday. It`s more tolerable in AM mode
than in SSB. 11670 is JBA and no better into Kuwait or S Africa; while
17855 and 15520 are inaudible at all locations, likely off the air
rather than MUFed out. First news about the La Palma volcano; 2208
feature interview with a woman from Colombia who studied film scoring
in Boston and now is in Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 22 at 2210, VOT English already with 2-minute
filler of multilingual IDs, 2222 `Feeling Supreme` seems to be program
name; then a commentary another announcer is having trouble reading in
English. But signal is super into UTwente: S9+55! by the time it gets
into Maryland, only S9/+10 but still plenty, no QRM audible (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2104 monitoring: ``From: Richard Lemke, St.
Albert, Alberta, Canada, From the desk of Richard’s listening Post,
Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.
Dear Glenn: Last week’s tasks now I heard this week’s World of Radio

UTC 2021 [Wed] (Lemke, Richard -AB)``

Confirmed here, Wed Sept 22 at 1045 the 1030 on WRMI 5850, VG direct
as I happen to awaken -- and I belatedly notice that in the mid-break,
I mess up my own address, PO Box number as ``6184`` instead of 1684!!
Am I becoming lysdexic? Am I losing it? This bodes ill for continuing
to broadcast a program full of numbers. I hope no one really try to
reach me at that misbox! But no one else has noticed?

Also confirmed Wed Sept 22 direct at 2100 on WRMI 7780, JBA VP S5-S7;
21 seconds later on WBCQ 7489.9v, also S5-S7 but by 2128 the latter
