** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 15 at 1429, LRA36 is on, good
S5-S8 into Brasil SDR. 1431 ``Nacional Antártida Argentina, en todo el
país, la radio pública``, Celsius temps, ``El Lejano Sur``, LRA36 and
RNASG IDs; more and more songs and IDs; 1510 ``noticias`` and
Antártida song; 1514 ``a partir de`` as if just starting; 1548 the
multilingual IDs. Usual stuff, past 1635+.

Meanwhile, Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, informed as early as 0518 UT:
``ANTARCTICA, 15476usb, LRA 36, Radio Nacional Arcángel San Gabriel,
Base Esperanza. The station staff announces via whatsapp that they
will be on the air today Wednesday with a marathon program, 24 hours
uninterrupted. I guess they will start at 1400 UTC, like other
Wednesdays with its usual program.``

All day and all night? Maybe, but NO signals into 3 Brasilian SDRs at
recheck 2258; obviously they need a lower band at night.

The whatsapp jpg includes a truncated direct audio link:

** CANADA. 6754-USB, Sept 15 at 0147 UT, CHR is inaudible again;
despite high storm noise level should still be detectable if on.

15034-USB, Sept 15 at 1418, Trenton Military finally reactivated here,
in aviation weather without ``no-report-receiveds``, but then terminal
forecasts are NRRs from several including Trenton itself. At 1422 ID
and wrong timecheck as 1420 zulu. Day frequency had been unheard for
about a month (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Sept 15 at 0150, RHC English is back here after jump to
6145 yesterday only; // 6000. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6100, Sept 15 at 0621, RHC in wrong language Spanish instead of
English, which does remain on 6165, 6060 under humbuzz, while 6000 and
5040 are off. Wolfgang Bueschel explains the 6060:

6060even CUB, RHC Bauta in Spanish, BUZZ STRING bad audio / modulation
performance, 9 x heavy strings visible either sideband, each 9 X times
at 120 Hertz distance apart. Bad main power serving. 1080 Hertz

stations; very close to 771.00 from the pitch of it but not measured.
This of course is not a 9/kHz plan channel, 765 & 774. Possibly some W
Hem 770 transmitter mispunched exactly 1 kHz off? Some months ago
there was a Cuban on 711, causing confusion with genuine TAs on their
correct channel. WRTH lists two of 10 kW on 770, a R. Artemisa and a

World``, via WRMI, English announcer Fernando Farías explains that for
the past sesquiyear since March 2020 they have all been working from
home and producing one program per week; hope before long to get back
into the studio for five per week, M-F. Plugs address for eQSLs:
QSLRAE@gmail.com BTW, it doesn`t matter whether e-mail addresses are
in caps or not or both; unlike URLs after / (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 6754-USB, Sept 14 at 0040, CHR is back at least on night
frequency; still nothing earlier in Sept 13 daytime chex on 15034-USB.
Recent aviation weather for Keflavík succeeds; but the other
infostream, terminal forecasts, gets ``No Report Received``, from
Shannon, Prestwick, Keflavík!, Lajes. ``Trenton Military`` timecheck
at 0042 claims it`s only 0040 zulu, typical. Then Shearwater av wx
succeeds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6145, Sept 14 at 0050, S9+20/30, RHC English is here on
alternate frequency to 6165! // 6000, but I doubt it will last.
Something`s always wrong? at RHC. Good news for WBCQ Area 61, now in
the clear on 6159.951 --- see U S A.

6145, Sept 14 at 0617 next check, S9+30, still here not 6165, during
wide-ranging N America weather info from Chief Meteorologist,
typically around :15 into one of the English hours. 6000 is off but
6100, 6060 humbuzzy and even 5040 are still on in English (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 21690, Sept 14 at 1532, RFI Swahili JBA into Kuwait SDR,
nothing yet on registered 25775 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Sept 14 at 1524, Kashmir Civitas reconfirmed
this Tue, S8-S9 into UTwente, passionate speech in presumed Urdu with
background noise; 1527 back to quiet studio talk with strumming
background until chopped off at 1529.2*, via IRRS via ROMANIA (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515-MCW kHz, Sept 14 at 0625 UT, PN, Ponca City, NDB is
off again. Seems is becoming sporadic. Still off at 1712 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Sept 13 at 2200, REE, English token semihour
still propagating sufficiently on daring MUF-abutting frequency
starting out at ``midnight`` local time -- really less than 2200 local
*mean* time; but, still I may listen on the PL-880 portable with
nothing more than a few meters clipped on; altho it fades somewhat,
and this old PL-880 annoyingly keeps switching between wide and narrow
bandwidths without any buttonic intervention.

Justin Coe forecasts, after current events, another edition of the `DX
Program` which is really nothing but a mailbag --- and the issue of
naming, or re-naming it does not come up this week. The first
dekaminute is really more about the René Magritte art exhibition
opening tomorrow in Madrid ---
https://www.museothyssen.org/en/exhibitions/magritte-machine
and a singer dying, than about hard news. 2210 a song.

2212 DX Program starts: first got a card portraying Myrtle Beach SC
from Otto? Schwartz just across the border in Calabash NC. It was sent
on August 23 but just arrived. Quotes his reception report of the 8/18
program with some of the topix, which is rather incestuous if not
pointless now. Including music by Javier García who it seems J.C. has
featured more than once. SINPO 45544 into his DX-440; and he also
heard the 7/24 program.

Then a brief voice mail from WOR iog member Peter Jones in GB, who was
hoping for a resumption of the English-language podcasts, never mind
SW. J.C. explains they are still missing due to a staff shortage but
hopes that will soon, unknown when, be rectified, ¿mañana?

Rest of program is a song, `Noche Tranquila y Serena`, the lyrix of
which J.C. first reads in translation. 2220 song starts with SFX of
waves lapping? 2228 outro that the song was dedicated to both
writers-in, adiós and a bit more music to semihour timepips and into
French. One wonders if any more than two English listeners had
contacted in the last month? Is there an e-mail address direct to
Justin, in addition to p-mail and v-mail? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 15520, Sept 14 at 1514, REE in Spanish, S6-S9. Off the back,
to ME but best chance for us if we want to hear it before 1800 M-F,
when 17855 opens thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Sept 14 at 0654 UT, open carrier atop KWKH, no doubt
still KLEY Wellington KS, still on air for nothing. 1507 UT in
daytime, nothing but S9+20 dead air, ditto at 1700 UT.

1550, Sept 14 at 1508 UT and other chex, still unable to confirm its
sibling station also made a license-saving comeback. Only a JBA
carrier, DF for Sapulpa OK, not Winfield KS. Maybe KKLE came and went
again very briefly; From NRC DX News Sept 21, published Sept 13:

``SILENT STATIONS
Formerly silent stations informing the FCC they are back on the air:
1130 KLEY KS Wellington – Silent Aug. 26, 2020; back on the air Aug 12
at 1:30 p.m. local time.
1550 KKLE KS Winfield – Silent Aug. 26, 2020; back on the air Aug 12
at 12 noon local time.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1413 kHz, Sept 14 at 0623 UT, JBA carrier a big
surprise, the only significant one in 9/kHz scan after 846 no doubt
Kiritimati, better than usual at 0620. Is it TP or TA? No obvious
hits, per WRTH MW listings: Highest power E Asia/Pacific is 50 kW
Japan, but well pre-sunset and nothing on other JJ frequencies even
the biggies; lots of lower-powered, Australia, Bangladesh, China,
India, Indonesia, NZ, Philippines, Taiwan. All too early except
possibly NZ. The superpowers are surely too far east into the dayside,
500 kW Moldova, 800 kW Oman. Still circa sunrise are RNE5 synchros,
Spain adding up to 35 kW; but no other obvious Spanish carriers (Glenn

** BRAZIL. 9665.854V, Sept 13 at 0610, Brazuguese talk fair from RVM,
frequency wobbling slightly to the ear. Its overall variation is much
wider. Also a JBA het from something closer to 9665.00, no doubt KCBS
Pyongyang on here 22 hpd. No hint on Aoki that RVM varies widely; EiBi
shows 9665.2 as if it were steady there. Better than Aoki which
refuses to show a single variable, split-, off- or decimal frequency,
even perpetual long-established ones. Better than HFCC which refuses

much stronger 6000 before both turn off. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Sept 13 at 0230, I`m trying to hear
something else on a TN SDR but it`s busy, but someone in Houston is
tuned to 6950-USB, so it must be a pirate, so I camp on that too. It`s
a recording of an old C2CAM show with Art Bell interviewing someone
about pirate radio. Someone here thinx it`s Andy Yoder:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,86351.0.html
apparently as displayed on the SSTV. Some storm noise and fades, 0236
pitch for QSL cards from a PO Box in zip 49016, which is Battle Creek
MI; then plays a clip of some pirate. 0244 clip about wine? and a bit
of `Also Sprach Zarathustra`. 0246 interrupted by SSTV until 0247*

time-filling $ $ $ . Rolling in dough, TOM no more now than under BS

in `serving` NAm while they are also on numerous high-power US
frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 12 at 2208, VOT English is on but heavy RTTY
adding up to S9+20/30. Sometimes RTTY can be evited by LSB tuning, but
now it`s equal on both sides. Something`s always awry at Ankara -- in
this case, ever choosing an RTTY-occupied frequency! Which they keep
doing A-season after A-season (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9540, Sept 13 at 1428, S8/S9+10 YL talk with very heavy
flutter, presumably VOT Arabic hour as scheduled, rather than CNR1
jamming vs SOH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 400-MCW kHz, Sept 13 at 0552, ND beacon AHQ, which is 25
watts from Wahoo, Nebraska (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2103 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
September 12 after 2000 in IRRS SW via Italia AM 918 kHz, S9+23 into
nearby Noale SDR, but unusually with a hint of music CCI beneath.
Probably R. Inter, Madrid, 20 kW which reactivated since WRTH listing
as inactive; shows other 918s in Egypt, Greece, Holland, Iran,
Nigeria. Rock music was playing at 1959; 2000 interrupt for IRRS ID,
and WOR by 2001.

Also confirmed, Sun Sept 12 after 2230 on WRMIs: 9955 S9+23 and new
5950 S9+20 into Athens GA SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 13 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 VG direct; also
on new 9395, S3-S8 into Maryland SDR but not getting 9455; on new
9455, S9/+10 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 13 at 0130 on WRN webcast to N America.

At 2238 UT Sept 12, I posted: ``[WOR] SuperStition back on 9330 --- At
2215 Sept 12, WBCQ 9330 at S9+40/50 so must be the 500 kW -- a rock
opera, so a test? Hardly what would be coming from World`s Last
Chance. Not // 7490- or 6160-``. Followed at 0118 UT Sept 13:

``[WOR] 9330 testing, Area 51 relay --- Hi Glenn, the superstation is
relaying Area 51 tonight on 9330 while they're testing the
transmitter's new tube. I expect to hear WOR at the usual time //
6160. {500 kW, WBCQ. 0300v UT Monday} Lw (Larry Will, 0112:46 UT Sept
12)``

``Yes, WOR started at 0303.5 on 9330, but checked at 0304, 6160 has
switched to Brother Scare! Let`s hope the 9330 test last at least
until 0332..5. BTW a Kiwi shows 9330 plus 32 Hz, S9+40/50 into TN.
Glenn``

``No worries, Glenn. The entire WOR played as did the program after.
Most of the evening Brother Scare would return to 6160 at the top of
the hour until someone would switch it back. I believe it was all
Brother Scare all the time after 0100 or thereabouts. I quit checking
after 0130 and left it on 9330. John [Carver] Mid-North Indiana`` at
0449 UT Sept 13.

``Larry, Tnx, it sure did while 6160 went back to BS already. Too bad
my unexpected closing remark was cut off. Glenn`` Next:

** U S A. 9330, WBCQ-6 SuperStition reactivated with new PA tube:
first see discussion under WOR monitoring. By 0248 UT Mon Sept 13,
9330 is carrying Area 51 instead of 6160-. S9+40/50 into TN SDR, rock
music. 0300 WBCQ ID but ``Debauchery`` show runs over, wrapping up, DJ
says he is turning 60, refers to current events; finally 0305 singing
ID and into WOR. Recheck at 0603, now it`s USA Radio News, down to
only S8-S9 direct, 0606 into rock music with no ID. I suspect it`s now
relaying WBCQ`s FM or AM station in Monticello, as USA R Nx is not
normally heard on WBCQ-SW itself; but still not handed back to World`s
Last Chance flat-earth nonsense. Next check 1425, VG with
American-accented gospel huxter, maybe WLCR but I await that
exaggerated British accent to be surer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1520, Sept 13 at 0606, `Red Eye Radio` on KOKC, OKC is
getting ripped up by YL obsessed with stupid sportstalk, same voice
heard on 1430, 1390 KCRC, 1300, maybe 1130. This has been the normal
situation for many months: no one cares that KOLM, Rochester MN is
running 10 kW day facility at night; that would be the CBS Sports
Radio net as also on KCRC. Of course, KOKC would have a better chance
if it cared about resuming 50 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515-MCW kHz, Sept 12 at 0635 UT & still 1516 chex,
25-watt NDB PN at Ponca City is OFF! It had returned June 26 after a
10- or 11-month absence. Certainly the best NDB signal here, even
better than ``local`` 341 EI when it was on; and PN had been noted
daily/nightly ever since but not logged. So taking another 11-month
break? NO, it`s back on at next check 1829; never mind. BTW, 255 kHz
SW Stillwater is still gone.

The new https://rxx.classaxe.com/en/rna/signals
shows only a dozen currently or recently active in OK. The ones I
still need: 201 BV Bartlesville, 388 OK Okmulgee, 393 BZ Clinton, 400
AI Ardmore. Marked out are *42* more, gone (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PUERTO RICO. 391-MCW kHz, Sept 12 circa 0630, among almost nightly
chex, I`m alert for beacon DDP at Dorado, as frequently but not always
audible in winter, my only LA NDB, but no sign of it yet. Could it be
off? No, still reported at classaxe.com as of 9/11, with speculation
that power be 3 kW instead of only 2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 402-MCW kHz, Sept 12 at 1356 ND beacon HU, 25 watts from
Hutchinson KS. Seldom heard.

414-MCW kHz, Sept 12 at 0647 UT, seems two JBA NDBs mixing; including
an S - probably SU, 40 watts from Sioux City IA (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

Scott on WWCR 5935 at extremely strong level S9+40/50 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, Sept 12 at 0626, S9+10 of dead air from WTWW. They
often continue rocking past 0600, but you never know for how long
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 90.1, Sept 12 at 0600 UT, no sign of KUCO OK, rather KHCC
Hutchinson KS. Is KUCO off or with some tropo help has KHCC totally
captured the frequency? At 0600-0601 KHCC has double audio, ending
`Nightcrossings` with IDs also for its two relay stations, and also
BBC top-of-hour ID and promos, 0601-0606 BBC news alone, and stays
with BBCWS programming after 0606. I had previously noted Radio Kansas
signing off at local midnight, believe it or not, thus no more QRM to
KUCO. But that was several months ago. Bigger changes at KHCC:

``Summer Program Schedule Effective July 4th
http://www.radiokansas.net/schedule.cfm

NOTE: We're losing Morning Edition and All Things Considered July 5th
due to new network fee calculation. Our schedule will feature
Marketplace at 5 p.m. and The World both morning and evening!

New Math and the Loss of Drivetime NPR
Thanks for your concern about the loss of Morning Edition (ME) and All
Things Considered (ATC). We miss them too!

Short story:
Our cost for ME & ATC was headed up unsustainably. We’ve transitioned
to new programming now rather than risk taking pledges for shows that
we know we can't keep.

Full story:
http://www.radiokansas.net/nprmath.cfm

You recognize that NPR charges local stations for most shows.
Top-notch programming just can’t happen with national underwriter
support alone, and so NPR tries to calculate the value these shows
bring to each station and its capacity to pay. They recently changed
the math. Any change was bound to increase fees for some stations and
decrease fees for others. They wouldn’t want us to share the details
of their fee calculation, but after a phase-in period, our fee would
go up by $ 70,393 to keep ME & ATC. (See the screen capture to the
right). No new programming to entice this additional support from
listeners...``

ME & ATC remain available to Wichita-area Kansans on KMUW 89.1, but
KHCC will not mention its arch-rival (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
