** BRAZIL. 9664.914, April 6 at 0625, Voz Missionária is S7-S4 with
music, frequency wavering slightly as I measure it. Except for WRMI,
WBCQ, it`s the SSOB.

9818.823, April 6 at 0620, JBA carrier, presumably R. Nove de Julho,
and no other Brazilians on 31m except 9664.914, which is *much*
stronger, implying that 9dJ be underpowered. Both ZYE890 and ZYE971
nominally 10 kW per WRTH 2021. Occasionally I hear 9630v at night, and
one other, 9550 is sometimes reported at other dayparts, but these
still in WRTH 2021 must be long gone: 9675, 9695, 9725 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, April 6 at 0235, RHC English, instead of alternate
6145; 6060 nothing but big humbuzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6100, April 6 at 0610, RHC final English repeat is OFF. So is 6000.
Still ON are 6165, VG S9+30, and 6060 S9+10/20 but still with big
humbuzz only. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7780 & 7570, April 6 at 0614, these TOMBS
frequencies of WRMI all-night are OFF the air. Looks like QRT of BS is
already impacting, less Overkill; still VG on 7730, 5850, 5950, 9395.
WRMI skedgrid still shows them all, so possibly the two be off for
some other reason.

Bishop Bob Biermann, sort of with WRMI, says to the WOR iog: ``Being
that Brother Stair has paid in advance a month or more at most
stations, you will keep hearing him until the money runs out. If he
paid for April, then you have 25 more days, if he paid even more
(which he sometimes does), even longer. I would guess his “Board of
Directors” will have to make that decision, depending if people keep
sending money to his compound`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, April 6 at *1755:10, REE carrier on with IS, managing
to run it two days in a row! I`m on Alexandria VA SDR for east-coast
reception then compared to my own in Deep North America. At outset,
S4-S7 at Alexa, S5-S8 here. 15520 to ME, so off the back to here and
Alexa, is already on air from 1500, now with silly ballgame or hyper
sports report; E Hemisphere frequencies start and end 3 hours earlier
on weekdays. It`s S4-S7 here too. At 1758 schedule announcement. 1800
one pip timesignal, time check as 8, 7 en Canarias, and ``24 Horas``
news program. At Alexa, 15520 at S5-S7 is already much better than
17855. Alexa at 1816: 15520 poor S5-S7, 17855 S7-S8; but by 1818,
17855 is fading out, while 15520 is S9. At 1844 here, 17855 is S7-S9
but noisy, roughly equal to 15520; while 11940 for S America is much
weaker. By 1955 here, 17855 is JBA carrier, and 15520 VP.

Already by 2000, we need REE to be on lower bands aimed thisaway, 13,
or 11, and before much longer, say 2200-0200*, 9 MHz. The registered
NAm azimuth with 200 kW is 290 degrees, which hits the continent
around Walterboro SC; but CIRAF zone targets are for all of NAm and
Caribbean except for C & W Canada, Alaska, and Greenland (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565-CW, April 6 at 1420, HIFER beacon K6FRC is JBA, and
fades up a bit to BA, nothing but call repeating, from Patterson CA.
No variety whatsoever in programming, but with alleged 1.8 milliwatts
only, any and every reception is notable. Once again, I never hear
this at any other daypart and wonder if like any beacon should, it be
constantly transmitting? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2080 monitoring; next:
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE

** U S A. 5800, April 6 at 0613, S9+20 open carrier, surely WRMI-10
transmitter, supposed to be OFF the air 0430-2200 except daytime TOMBS
Saturdays only. Every so often I find this on air in nightmiddle, why?
Test or misprogrammed? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also SOUTH CAROLINA
[non]

** VANUATU. 11835, April 6 at 0628, JBA ``island music`` I would not
expect to hear from China`s CNR2, so presumed R. Vanuatu, 3 x 3945;
S3-S5 better than usual JBA carrier. 0631 announcement when I almost
hear Vanuatu mentioned? Still going past 0641+, only one signal. As I
pointed out before, now in A21 confronts QRM from high-power China
fundamental, but that seems to be in regular Tuesday-only siesta after
0600. Hardly anything else on 25m, e.g. China. Nothing audible now on
7890 = RV X 2.

I still think I heard only RV, but a contradictory report from Ron
Howard, CA, to the WOR iog: ``CHINA / VANUATU. 11835, random
monitoring on April 6 (Tuesday), from 0510 to 0705; CNR2 dominating
the whole time over Radio Vanuatu (harmonic); CNR2 didn't close down
at 0600, as they did last week; by 0615, started fading in of RV on
7890, with 3945 not heard; at 0701, could make out the distinctive
start of the RV news underneath CNR2``. Of course to here more so than
to CA, RV has a lower-latitude advantage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

WORLD OF RADIO HITLIST by Alan Roe, April 5

Hi Glenn, my latest Hitlist update.
https://www.w4uvh.net/hitlist.htm

1) UTC offset notations updated for DST changes in New Zealand

2) USA - World Harvest Radio: Removed links to SW (frequencies,
programmes, live streaming). Retained link to home page for now.
Unless there's a major change anywhere, the next update will be in
May. Best wishes and 73 Alan

** CUBA. Correct number of the AER DX report on RHC En Contacto April
4 was 169, not 569; if always monthly, that = 14+ years (Glenn Hauser,
WOR)

** CUBA. RHC check at 0455 UT April 5: 6060 Spanish with humbuzz, 6100
Spanish with squeal, 5040 good in Spanish; 6165 // 6000 music presumed
English service. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ITALY. 11390-USB, April 5 at 1642, Marconi Radio International
during publicized broadcast with 250 watts; very marginal via UTwente
SDR but I leave it there rather than fishing around for better Kiwis.
S5 is the noise level and MRI about the same; a song at first; 1643 a
4+1 time?signal and ID in English; a few notes of ``Wheels``,
``playing more music at the weekends`` [sic]; 1645 Italian
announcement; 1650 almost fadeout, music. 1711 mentions R. Aparecida
in Portuguese, a DX segment clip? Then some Italian; clip of RHC in
Spanish; 1715 music; 1724 talk and music; 1728 fade up for ID in
Italian with piano chords IS, then English ID a few times looping and
apparently off 1730 as sked, tho JBA traces of algo a bit longer
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. Checking the RRI 2030-2100 English to N America, April 5,
*2027 IS via Alexandria SDR is good on both 13650 and 11850. Here at
2043 however, 11850 is JBA carrier and 13650 is JBA. By 2058 RRI is
off but there`s a big OC on 11850, no doubt CUBA. It may well be on
earlier blocking those ex-Commies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, April 5 at 2025, REE has managed to get its North
American frequency running again after a week AWOL! I proceed to
monitor it and the others the rest of the afternoon, since I have
feared it wouldn`t propagate until 2230, let alone 0200* as scheduled.
Gaisma.com says today`s sunset at Madrid, near Noblejas, was 2044 CEST
= 1844 UT. Of course maybe an hour later for signals to the west thru
the critical first refraxion point, before MUF drop.

First, via the Alexandria VA SDR for a good idea of how it reach the
east coast, bound to be better than into deep North America OK.
Presumably started at 1800 when I was busy monitoring WOR on IRRS. At
2025 tune-in, 17855 is S9+10, good. By 2047 has faded to S8-S9. 2102,
down to S6-S4. 2110, S5-S4 now fighting the band noise level. 2113
about gone! but presumably still transmitting.

Here into my R75: at 2042, 17855 is S8-S5, BUT 15520 aimed away from
us is much better already, S9/+10. 11940 for S America is almost as
good, S8-S9.

Alexandria obs of the others: At 2058, 15520 is S9/+5, already much
better than 17855 S7-S4. By 2135, 11940 surpasses 15520, and BTW still
inaudible on 17855 and ex-9690. By 2143, 15520 has faded out, leaving
11940. By 2157, 11940 remains, better than 11685, the African
frequency I had not checked before, way off-beam and vs 11687.5 RTTY.
11940 still audible at 2200 for timesignal and starting token English
on Monday. Alison says after some news items, feature will be on the
275th anniversary of artist Fsco. Goya, but even this is fading down
and out by 2203.

Back to my own rx: 11940 has held up better here, S9/+10 at 2211; Goya
feature finally starts at 2212 by another YL announcer, but soon
fade-out of the last frequency lasting.

If they were on 9 MHz, like 9690 by now, the 2200 M/W/F English would
surely still propagate as the MUF continues to fall.

Those of us who have been listening to SW for a few years or 60+, have
a feel for Propagation 101, as what I have monitored above should be
obvious and predictable, but not to REE frequency management.

Or they could have checked the WRTH 2021 page 43 for the table of Most
Suitable Frequencies: From Europe to E North America in March-April
2021: 15-23 UT 15 MHz, 23-03 UT 9 MHz; same to W North America: 16-20
UT 15 MHz, 20-24 UT 11 MHz, 00-04 UT 7 MHz. NEVER 17 MHz! Central
North America? Who cares (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 5 at 2159 I can hear the VOT IS via Virginia
SDR but fighting the RTTY. At 2204 it`s useless with the two adding up
to S9. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2080 monitoring: confirmed on IRRS
7290 via UTwente, Monday April 5, modulation cutting on at 1800:49 as
WOR opening with theme is already in progress, same as happened last
week, by misprogrammed automation? Then I lunch, but seems intact
until ending at 1829:30, some music and finally IRRS ID and contact
info, Feature Story News.

I was monitoring earlier from 1750 when there was nothing on 7290 but
CNR in Chinese, music, S7 with splash. *1757 IRRS open carrier with
some hum, but China still audible under, with 5+1 timesignal at 1800,
and CNR1 theme, but I don`t think it stayed on until 1805 as alleged.
By the time WOR starts JIP, ACI splash has abated, finding nothing
closer than 7300 with Iran in German, so LSB or narrow synch tuning
minimises that; Iran quits at 1820 anyway. Next:

1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2200 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 7489.983V, Monday April 5 at 2300, WBCQ with semirepeat of
`Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot` 25 hours after original full airing, but
missed most of it since thru no fault of my own it conflicts with
WORLD OF RADIO on the other WBCQ, 6159.93, Sunday at 2200; even if it
be last week`s edition. UB doesn`t publicize this airing much but I
often find it more convenient. This week starts with music from
Solomon Islands, at 2318, ``This Land is Your Land`` with choir and
bamboo tuned pipes, to be viewed on his site at disgraced FB. More
music to come from Tonga and Vanuatu. Signal noticeably improves at
2325 to S9+10, but chopped off at 2330 for ID and *spot commercial*
for Peacock, newish streaming service of NBC. Spot ads are extremely
rare on US SW stations, no doubt hard to sell; have heard one or two
occasionally on WRMI; and into Camp Constitution Radio on WBCQ. Did
CCR have anything to do with the Peacock adjacency, or does it run at
random, or BCQ choice? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540.200, April 5 at 0503 UT, WKVQ still making big het
here; 1319.715, April 5 at 0504 UT, detectable het from WCOG still
here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Here`s my latest strategy to view `CBS Sunday Morning`:
timer-record it on KWTV; if awake, check to be sure they haven`t
shunted it to KSBI. Anyway, primarily watch it at:
https://www.cbsnews.com/sunday-morning/
as I did this week April 5 of the April 4 edition, after which I can
re-use my own back-up tape of it. The website playback was correct and
OK, except went into incessant buffering two or three times, but after
noting the timer, refreshed and picked it up where left off. This week
totaled 64 instead of 62 minutes, all commercials excised, but adding
2 minutes to the closing nature segment, more than ever goes on the
CBS air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search April 5 at 0457,
early enough for NW & SW Europe still to skywave: 531, 558, 576, 585,
612(2), 639(2), 684, 693, 738, 774(2), 837, 855, 882, 891, 909, 1053,
1089, 1125(2), 1134, 1152(2), 1215, 1296(2), 1305(2). Also 1710(2),
likely domestic. (2) = at least two carriers beating (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15730, Sunday April 4 at 2237, RHC in Esperanto, so only the
third time and frequency they announce is correct --- but it`s a bust,
extremely suptorted S7-S9, as so often on this transmitter. I can
barely recognize the language, and there is no alternative, no //.
Other days of week, this slot is filled by French, I think.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Sunday April 4 at 2238, S7/S9+10, over-modulated &
distorted; a little better on 9650, just somewhat distorted, RHC in
Filatelia show with postal addresses of would-be stamp traders. I`m
about to confirm the middle broadcast time of `En Contacto` DX program
as shifted for Yanqui-imposed DST. Yes, it runs from 2243.5 to 2259.0.
Padded, the first two minutes billboard what will be on the rest of
it, including the 569th edition of the AER DX report from Spain voiced
by Pedro Sedano. At 2245.5 main topic is the ICAO/NATO fonetik
alfabet, running thru all the words from A to Z, which of course are
originally in English. Maria Elena then spells her own name that way.
And next the alternative list, some matching, some not, like Japan,
Nancy and Radio instead of Juliet, November and Romeo. Then a bit
about some current ham DXpeditions; RHC/program contact info. Next,
about how the Q-codes came about but only mentioning a few of them.
Pedro Sedano`s DX report runs from 2254.5 to 2257.0 = only 2.5 minutes
allowing for three topix: Tajikistan on 1143 & 7245 including English
at 13-14; three BDXC-UK pdf publications for free download; and Angola
on 4950, each with contact info. Last, ``glosario HF`` about ``onda
estacionaria`` = standing waves, briefly.

Closing credit for guión by Malin? whose name I copied before, with
call CO7CW --- pretty sure of that but QRZ.com says he died 8 years
ago: ``CO7CW Cuba flag Cuba, WILFREDO LEON, SILENT KEY On 3/09/13
Fallecio En La Fecha Indicada, CIEGO DE AVILA, Cuba``. Maybe call has
been reissued? And Arnaldo Coro, CO2KK also credited as a colaborador.
Next and final airing at 0140 UT Monday, confirmed in progress at 0144
on 11850, S9+20 but suptorted; altho Sedano thought there was a 4th at
0735, which would now be at 0635 if you can find a frequency still on
air in Spanish, like 5040 instead of English or off; or maybe webcast
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, April 5 at 0159, RHC English frequency of choice
tonight instead of 6145, // 6000 and not 11850 which is back in
Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 12040, Apr 4 at 2206, KSDA confirmed with `AWR Wavescan` on
UT Sunday, local Monday morning; Ray Robinson finishing something
about Brasil, handing it back to Jeff. S9+10/20 into Bandung SDR
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7730, April 5 at 0100, right after WOR on
WRMI, Overcomer Ministry announces death of Brother Stair on April 3.
It`s also on TOM website, and we have stories from Charleston TV
stations, forwarded by several DXers:

Ralph Stair, Colleton County preacher accused of sex crimes, passes
away --- by Matt Dillane Sunday, April 4th 2021

https://abcnews4.com/news/crime-news/ralph-stair-colleton-county-preacher-accused-of-sex-crimes-passes-away

Colleton County pastor Ralph Stair dies

https://www.live5news.com/2021/04/04/colleton-county-pastor-ralph-stair-dies/

How would you like your obit to be about your sex crimes? Or merely
connected to some unknown county rather than worldwide impact as the
Last Day Prophet of God? I`m sure we`ve not heard the last of BS ---
most of his 24/7 stuff was already playbacks, sometimes decades old.
As long as deluded psychophants keep the $ $ $ flowing, he may live
forever like PPP, DGS and other broadcast gospel huxters. Stations
subsisting on that cash may be nervous and in for cutbacks --- WRMI,
WWCR, WBCQ. TOM homepage lost its signature image of a boneyard years
ago.

5890, April 5 at 0203, BS sounds very lively on WWCR-4 pleading for
people to contact him. His was such an individual ego-trip that the
deluded are in for a big disappointment (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Apr 4 at 2200, NO signal from VOT English, just heavy
S9+20 RTTY into KB0FX SDR --- but RTTY stops at 2205* uncovering still
no VOT. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO monitoring: confirmed Sunday April
4 at 2200+ on Area 51 via WBCQ 6159.926 varying to .927, via KB0FX SDR
in SAM mode showing carrier offset from 6160.000 of minus 73 to 74 Hz
--- but it`s last week`s 2079!! Despite 2080 having been available for
almost 3 days. S7-S8 anyway.

Also confirmed Sun Apr 4 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, S8-S9 into MO SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Apr 5 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct.

Also confirmed UT Mon Apr 5 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, S8-S9 into KB0FX,

last night; presumably shortly to be silent again until next Saturday
night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6060-USB, April 5 at 0200, weak intermittent 2-way in

** CANADA. 366-MCW kHz, April 4 at 0604 UT, ND beacon dash and YMW,
which is 500 watts from Maniwaki, Quebec. Where`s that? North of
Gatineau on the way to Mont-Laurier. Where`s Gatineau? Probably the
most under-rated city in Canada, overlooked as a mere suburb of Ottawa
across the river/border. In fact, population of Gatineau is 265K, i.e.
more than 4X Victoria BC which everyone has heard of; while Ottawa is
883K; but eclipsed by Maniwaki of only 4K yet with this continental
signal.

413-MCW kHz, April 4 at 0603 UT, NDB dash and YHD, 250 watts from
Dryden, Ontario. I am savouring the ones I can still detect as we head
into the spring storm season. Tonight there is only a bit of Blitz in
southern TX and the SE corner of NM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, April 4 at 0537, RHC English is back here after 6145
last night; can`t decide which? Hard-soul music during `Music with a
Message`, concentrating on 1971 US anti-war era. 6100 is S9+30 but now
developing a squeal à la WWCR-1. 6060 is S9+10 not buzzy for a change
but distorted. 6000 is S9+30 but lo-fi A/B comparing to audio
bandwidth on 6060. 5040 is back in English for a change, S9+30.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140 // 11760, Sunday April 4 at 1501, RHC opening weekly
Esperanto; OM announcer still can`t shake his first-language Spanish,
misaccenting politíko as polítiko --- those stripping accents out of
my reports when quoting may have no idea what I`m talking about. Then
standard sign-on announcement with schedule, so I listen closely: yes,
still outdated as the Esperantists are clueless about their own SW
broadcasts: claims Sundays at 0800 on 6100, but which wolfie just
confirmed is really at the summer timing of 0700; 1600 for this one on
11760, only, the more recent addition of 15140 unknown to them; and
2230 on 15730, which maybe will chance to be correct, TBD. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13568, 13634, 13767, 13834, approx., April 4 at 1358, FM/AM
spurblobs out of RHC 13700-AM, all with F# tone, at 66-67 kHz
intervals and X2. But can`t hear any X3 third-order blobs. 13834 also
QRMing a weak AM on 13835, which would be RFA Tibetan via Tajikistan
about to close or more likely its ChiCom jammer. Spurs resumed after
missing a few days; something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15370, April 4 at 1926, open carrier at S9; 1930 RHC starting
French program, cleaner modulation than on 15140 English with mailbag
at S9+10. This is evidently the start of the European service, which
RHC French page still shows at 2030 for B-season:

Something`s always wrong at RHC. Aoki/NDXC shows 15370 only at
1600-1900 in Spanish, which I think has never been correct (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

CiVic Memorial, Illinois.

347-MCW kHz, April 4 at 0605 UT, AFK, 25-watt NDB at Nebraska City, NE
