** CUBA. 11845, March 12 at 1540 Cuban pulse jamming against nothing,
despite Radio Martí having abandoned this frequency some years ago.
Something`s always wrong at the incompetent and wasteful DentroCuban
Jamming Command. Other broadcasters may be on to them: HFCC B-20 shows
absolutely nothing scheduled on 11845. But EiBi has another jammer
country, China`s CNR2 at 0100-0855 via x site. See also TURKEY [and
non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUATEMALA. On March 12 I wrote to Radio Verdad: ``Dr Madrid, We
miss your SW signal on 4055. What are the prospects for getting it
back on the air from Guatemala? Regards, Glenn Hauser``

Quickly replied: ``Dear Glenn: Thank you for your concern. We are
planning to repair one power module next Tuesday, in order to come
back on air with 280 watts. I have acquired the mica insulators we
needed for the power transistors. I am sending the other two modules
to Canada to be repaired by Eng. Wayne Ralph Borthwick. The delay has
been caused by the extreme negligence of our Technician. May God be
with you and keep you with a good health. Dr. Édgar Amílcar Madrid,
Radio Truth, Chiquimula, Guatemala, C. A.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 6125, March 12 at 0430, VOT Turkish music filling
out English hour to N America, but with heavy pulse-jamming QRM adding
up to S9+10/20. Of course it`s overrun from Cuba after Radio Martí
quit at 0400*. Clueless TRT frequency management has not grasped it
should avoid any Martí frequency even when itself be finished. Nor
9830 hitting RTTY after 2200 in the A seasons which I bet they are
about to resume. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5800, Friday March 12 at 0705, S9+20/10 of open carrier, got
to be WRMI again on air during scheduled break for some reason, as
last heard about same time on Monday Feb 22. Wonder if automation be
mis-programmed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12050, March 12 at 1538, S7-S9 of dead air in Spanish from
WEWN; for at least a minute, so not merely long boring pause in a mass
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7890, March 12 at 0706, JBA S5-S6, maybe trace of
modulation from presumed R. Vanuatu, 2 x 3945; also S4-S5 on 11835, 3
x 3945, the three of them now starting at 0700. I`ve been intending to
seek previous fundamental 7260 until 0659 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 2959.85V, March 12 at 0330, JBA carrier again suspected
of being second harmonic of an off-frequency 1480 station. As
previously reported on almost same frequency:

``UNIDENTIFIED. 2959.842, March 2 at 0207, JBA carrier, suspected
second
harmonic of a 1480-minus station. Later checked my previous log to
find independently measured within 3 Hz:

UNIDENTIFIED. 2959.839, Feb 22 at 0349, JBA carrier unseems birdie,
again suspecting a second harmonic from a Latin American MW 1479.9195
but nothing that far off in mwoffsets``

Meanwhile no one else has reported it; did anyone even try? So this
time I quickly go over to the KiwiSDR net looking for it at numerous
remotes around USA and S America --- nothing. So now I am concluding
it really be birdie from a local device. Never mind (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11342-USB, March 12 at 1542, 2-way, at first unID
language but maybe heavily accented English from a flight, reply in
real English mentioning phone patch and sending sel-call tones. But
nothing more heard for 4 minutes. Numerous 11342 logs in UDXF iog up
to 2018y as New York LDOC; tho maybe some other hub along whatever
route this apply to. What does LDOC mean? Last Day Of Classes, Laying
[sic] Down On Couch; or more likely, Long Distance Operational Control
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6180, March 11 at 0147, S9+20 of dead air on CRI relay, trace
of underaudio maybe Brasil if not CRI JBM. Also some lite pulse
jamming, maybe bleedover from Cuban neighbor transmitter. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH [non]. 11880, March 12 at 0059, huge open carrier,
S9+10/20 via Bonaire KiwiSDR, so quiet that I thought at first the
tuner was muted. About 0059.7 a few notes of the Encompass IS so
evidently routed via London; 0100 opening ``KBS World Radio``
pronounced in English, otherwise relay in Spanish. This was found by
Ivo Ivanov as a new entry in HFCC B-20 for March 10-12 only as a test,
but was heard yesterday until 0200 with a VG signal by JRX in Brasil
who thinx it runs at least until March 28. Supposedly still on 9605
via WHRI at same hour, I did not get around to checking. Other
frequencies were registered via Greenville but AFAIK never tried. We
assume that KBS relay is due to switch from SC to NC, sometime. I
understand it is on azimuth 164 from Grimesland (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 332-MCW kHz, March 11 at 0716 UT, unusually a third station
mixing with IC Wichita KS and QT Thunder Bay ON, the latter weaker
than usual as it normally exceeds IC despite being 10X further. Part
of the call is overlapping, but ends with -IS. This is a likely fit:
FIS, Key West - Fish Hook FL, 400 watts. I had another fishy log of
this on Dec 14, over 2 megameters away vs TB at only 1.5 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565-CW, JBA vs CODAR, March 11 at 1451, K6FRC calls over
and over, HIFER beacon in Patterson CA, every logging notable as it`s
1.8 milliwatts. Never traced much later in the day (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2076 monitoring: Monitored WRMI Sunday
Evening / Monday Morning (UTC) 7780 kHz Schedule --- From my recording
last Sunday evening, 7-8 March 2021 UTC (note additional airing of
World of Radio at 23:00 UTC): 23:00 World of Radio (#2076; not
Bringing Truth to Life) (Richard Langley, NB, March 10, WOR iog)

New, now added to the sked grid. Has been 24 hours earlier Saturdays
but not on grid, so both now, or moved? This would have been at same
Sunday time as on Area 51 WBCQ 6159.93, but from March 14 that
presumably shifts one UT hour earlier to 2200 UT, further into
ever-increasing daytime absorption. I`m hoping A-21 skeds out shortly
from HFCC will no longer show a WBCQ conflict with WHRI over 7490, so
we can go back into the night at 0300 UT Mondays on 6160-. 7490
programming obligations had to be moved onto 6160.

WOR 2076 also confirmed Wed March 10 at 1050 when I happened to
awaken, the 1030 on WRMI 5850, VG.

Also confirmed UT Thu March 11 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, S9 but noisy
storm crashes from Iowa; also some storms vs Pardinho, Brasil SDR,
S8-S9 at 0157 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

First broadcasts of WOR 2077 confirmed, UT Friday March 12 at 0130
just minutes after completion, on WRMIs: 5850 VG direct, and
sufficient tho noisy off the back via Bonaire SDR I already have
running; and 7780, good S9/+15 to UTwente, VG S9+10/20 to Maine (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540.20v, March 11 at 0705 UT, major het against 1540.00
KXEL at al. stations, presumably again WKVQ Eatonton GA, 10 kW
daytimer as previously traced; little or no modulation on it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2077)

** VENEZUELA. 6205.026v, March 12 at 0210, ROCV via Bonaire SDR, much
stronger than last night, power up from 60 watts? But
overmodulated/distorted, continuous music past 0230 rather than
frequent, or any, 93.7 IDs as before. Kiwi shows carrier varying
around plus 26 Hz, very close to where I measured it directly a binite
ago, +22 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2077)

** CANADA [and non]. 269-MCW kHz, March 10 at 0726 UT, ND beacon UDE
--- could it be a Cuban, all of which start with U-? No, this one
alternates with a dash, so it`s Canadian, 50 watts from Delta MB.

DXinfocentre.com shows 16 U- Cubans, but all ``decommissioned`` except
250 in Habana - Playa Baracoa, UBP with 80 watts. Not even heard
here.

As in my previous compilation of Caribeacons, classaxe.com shows two
still logged in Jan or Feb this year, 250 UBP and 339 UAH Santiago,
and three more in 2020; but many more are not darkened yet. Lots have
changed their U- callsigns over the years; for security? And/or
miskeying. Something`s always wrong --- here, too (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 9650, Mar 10 at 2007, S9+10 open carrier, SSOB; likely RHC
warming up much earlier than nominal *2200 start and totally blocking
any Guinea. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ERITREA [non]. 17545.061V, Wed Mar 10 at 1530, S4-S7 Bayto Yaikl
clandestine via defective FRANCE transmitter, audibly wavarying as I
try to measure it, roughly between 17545.049 and 17545.073. Semihour
also only on Saturdays, brokered by RMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11820.044, Mar 10 at 1940, continuous Qur`aning, S8
with a lot of deep fading to S5; as always, off-frequency, but
seasonally showing up better again soporifically for my nap until
switch at 2000 to plain Arabic talk; probably soon back to Qur`an
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, March 10 at 2006, REE reactivated after missing this
frequency for almost a week, S9/+10; so, good prospect for token
English at 2300 W/F/M; now it`s a silly ballgame in Spanish. Yes, at
2309, guitar-singers featured by Justin Coe on VG S9+10 into
Bonaire.

Pedro Sedano sends planned A-21 sked showing 9690 replaced by 17855
for North America, total span 1400/0200. Should be good over daypaths,
but much lower needed over nightpaths, like 9690. Wolfgang Bueschel
shows alternative version, changing to 9690 at 2200; we hope (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2076 monitoring: confirmed Wed Mar 10 at 2100
on WRMI 7780, S7-S9 into UTwente SDR.

Also confirmed Wed Mar 10 from 2200:21 on WBCQ 7490+, S7-S9 into KB0FX
SDR in MO, but with some lightning crashes which Blitzortung shows can
be no closer than southern MN and northern MI

Also confirmed Wed Mar 10 at 2300 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9+10 into Bonaire
SDR, atop jamming but losing out as the semihour progresses. Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

UNIDENTIFIED. 11825.020, March 10 at 1535, S4-S7 of M&W dialog,
intonation sort of French but not sure. Nothing scheduled now in
latest HFCC, Aoki or EiBi; tho RBAustralia may run until 1500*. Clew:
another site, capable of offfrequenciness (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11945, March 10 until 1538.4* shortly after tune-in to
JBA signal with Doppler flutter. Nothing scheduled; maybe a pre-test
