** CANADA. ``Glenn, Concerning your comment that there are no other advance-of-date decommissioning notices for Canadian beacons, there actually is a new list of beacons to be decommissioned as of January 27, 2022. Scroll down to the bottom of the page at this link https://www.navcanada.ca/en/air-traffic/navaid-modernization-program.aspx to see the beacons to be decommissioned in Phase 7 of 12. Also, in William Hepburn’s list, the higher-powered beacons are shown in caps, with the highest powered ones shown in the largest font size. Steve Howe, Saint Albans, VT``
That site also purports to explain why this ``modernization`` is being undertaken, but is unclear to me and unconvincing. But then I am not a pilot. ``Completion date of the project is planned for May 2024`` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, August 6 at 0559, RHC English is not on wrong frequency 5990; also same on 6100, better on 6165, much worse just hum on 6060. By 0601, both 6000 and 5040 are off. See VANUATU. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6980-USB, August 6 at 2350 giving out a 302-area code phone number; first thought it was a MARS net, but then for call-ins to R. Free Vatever; DJ muses about forbidden Dungeons & Dragons and plays such music. I did not copy the full phone number and no one else reports it either. We may assume that 302 = Delaware is not a clue to RFV real QTH. S6-S7 vs noise level. Many more logs: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,84739.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, August 6 at 2353, pirate DJ talking about a nest? S5-S6 vs noise level. Many logs here as Camelback Radio about Vermont, not Arizona; a Zekey station: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,84740.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 6 at 2200 and later, no signal from VOT English to N America, checked at Maryland SDR. I believe it was there yesterday but an earlier day this week was also AWOL. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2098 monitoring: confirmed first SWBCs on WRMI: UT Friday August 6 at 0130, VG on 5850 direct; 7780 poor in storm noise via UTwente but VG S9+10/20 into Virginia SDR. Also confirmed Friday August 6 at 2030-2059 on IRRS Shortwave via AM Italia, 918 kHz, Granze, VG via nearby Noale SDR. Larry Will notifies us August 6: ``Area 51 WOR schedule change --- Hi all, Since Herald of Truth left WBCQ on July 1, we are able to move World of Radio and Hobart Radio International from Sundays at 2200 UTC (6pm eastern) to Mondays at 0300 UTC (11pm eastern) on 6160. This should be a better time slot for these programs. This change is effective this weekend. Regards, Lw`` 4790 is also being evaluated as a replacement for all Area 51 programming instead of 6160. I would say wait until fall/winter as it will have a smaller coverage area and confront more noise during the storm season. OTOH, it`s free of QubaRM unlike 6160 from 6165.

(7489.9v), UT Sat Aug 7 at 0000, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW` sounds familiar, going to do a ``tutorial on freedom`` as if we need that from him; usual opening fiddling with mikes, praising Angela`s appearance, for his eyes only. And then about the 175th anniversary of Monticello ``tomorrow``, so this indeed is a repeat of last week`s show, and John Carver agrees; no further monitoring needed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, Aug 6 at 0608, WWCR with S9+30 of dead air from TOMBS in English. AGAIN. Keeps happening around this time of night, but not on other WWCR or WRMI frequencies. How nice that they are wasting their watts but the programming is thus upgraded (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 10080, Aug 6 at 0610, no trace of R. Vanuatu harmonic from 5040 nor has anyone ever? reported it here. 5040 however has been reported on air well past 0600, instead of 3945 which does harmonicize on 7890 and 11835. It`s still too early to hear RV on 5040 even if on and Cuba be off, which it is this date (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0101 UT August 7 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

MADAGASCAR. 5009.934 to 5009.917, Aug 5 at 0319, JBA carrier measured with carrier offset fluxuating minus 66 to 83 Hz, per Knoxville SDR in SAM mode, as I check for absent WRMI. RNM is habitually offset-minus around this area, and should have been better an hour earlier, if WRMI-14 were still off then rather than nominal 0300*.
