** CUBA. 13629 & 13771 approx., March 7 at 1510, JBA FMish spurblobs
since source 13700-AM is very weak only S7-S8 vs S6 noise level; while
13740 still on but spurfree is very strong. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** FRANCE. Correxion to last report: the Signal to Noise Ratio is of
course in dB, not kHz, fixed:
9880-9885-9890-DRM, so I do, March 6 at 2330: Rochester NY Kiwi SDR,
no DRM detected; UTwente can hear DRM noise in AM mode but too weak;
Bonaire decodes intermittently at SNR +/- 14 dB, S9-S8; displays same
parameters as 11630 above (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWEDEN. 6200, 6130, 6035, March 7 at 0503, no signals on publicized
or alternate frequencies for R. Nord Revival, Sala, tuning via Carnow,
Ireland SDR; still nothing at 0543. There was conflicting info whether
to start at 0000, or 0500 with two hours partly in English. Possibly
on now but above pre-sunrise MUF. Not expecting anything direct either
but final check here at 0654 gets nothing. Supposed to last until 23
UT Monday March 8, or 24? So plenty more chances to try. Many further
reports overnight to the WOR iog: Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, March 7: ``Hi Glenn, nothing on all the
three frequencies here in Lugo, checking between 0545 to 0700. Neither
anything via SDR Kiwi receivers in Northern Europe too`` Roger in Germany at 0709 March 7: ``Right now tested via KIWI SDRs in
the direction of sunrise, nothing here either. However, a googling
with Swedish keywords brought a result.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/Radio-Nord-Revival-144438508950612/
Just heard on the Stream ID in Swedish and English, with mention of
the SW frequencies`` Ydun Ritz, Denmark at 0723: ``According to nordx groups.io there are
technical problems. 73s Ydun`` Mike Barraclough, UK, at 1106 UT: ```Posted 1053, presume CET, today
on their blog: ``Unfortunately the SW transmitters at Sal are giving trouble so we
have not yet been able to come on the air. Bernt is busy
troubleshooting and hopefully the problem will be solved soon. We will
be active on 6200 kHz as soon as we possibly can.`` Mike``` Ydun Ritz at 1112 UT: ``Online now; reported heard in northern Denmark
an hour ago. 73s Ydun`` -- I guess she means now, on SW Zacharias Liangas, Thessaloniki, Greece: ``Nord revival: Seen a
message in their web page above and re checked N signal in my city.
Sudden restart at 1115 via Kaustinen kSDR with S7 with old of 60s.
This SDR is suffering with BPL in the band. Also on SM2GT kSDR with
S10/6QRN or -70/92 dbm. Mostly talks At 1123 with old pop songs in
(50s 60s??). Gong at 1128 with ID?? Loftansa sfarar/Nord revival with
ID at 1129 and talks in English. Again no signal in my city`` Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria: ``Good signal on 6200 kHz at 1130 UT via SDR
Joensuu/Karelia, Finland`` roger at 1140: ``Weak S5 signal in Central Germany at 6200 kHz, more
likely 1 kW. Broadcast not the same // as the web stream. foF2 in
Northern Germany 4.5 MHz, i.e. a skip zone of at least 500 km and
certainly hardly any reception in Sweden itself. roger`` All the above replies on the WOR iog; these from bdxc-news:
``1155 UT: 6200 weak on Barney's webSDR in Bedford 15 miles from me,
too much local noise to hear it on my Eton E5 here. Very good signal
on an SDR in Gotland, Sweden. Mike`` Barraclough Alan Pennington at 1309: ``Not audible here in southern England in
Caversham either. If I remember rightly from previous Radio Nord
Revival transmissions, reception in UK is better early evening on
49mb? Good reception on the kiwisdr at Umeå in NE Sweden though. 73,
Alan`` Nick Rank at 1612: ``Radio Nord audible at the moment with me. English
ID at 1605 UT, unfortunately I wasn't quick enough to write it all
down! SIO 343 at best. Seems to be better with sync. det. on USB (on
6200 kHz) 73s. Nick. Buxton. Sony ICF2001D & long wire/ATU`` And direct from Herman Content:

some times fade out. But I did hear the Station. 73 from Herman

At 17h00 UT - 6200 is now blocked by the BBC on 6195 kHz (here in
Belgium and even kiwi receivers Norway and Sweden.)``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6125, March 7 at 0445, VOT English huge signal, mostly
music fill, via Carnow, Ireland KiwiSDR, noticed as ACI when checking
6130 for R. Nord Revival, Sweden special, zilch. VOT IS keeps playing
until 0500 and then opening Malay! which is supposed to go eastward on
17530. VG S9 signal continues on 6125 past 0545, so the whole hour is
going out on the wrong frequency, wrong beam, as Bandung SDR is
getting nothing on 17530 at 0515. Something`s always erroneous at
Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2076 monitoring: confirmed UT

with this reply: ``Ahoy Glenn - Third Mate Susan saw your post in the
WOR group, wanted you to know that you indeed heard us, and thought
she'd send you another unsolicited eQSL. In our older programs -- produced months ago -- we didn't announce
song titles. You can identify a recently produced one because we do
that. We're not going back and editing those old programs to include
the information because we're spending our time producing new content.
Airing March 7, 2021 (WRMI), March 20, 2021 (Channel 292), March 28,
2021 (WBCQ) Runtime = 59:39. Tune in to WRMI on the 14th -- same time and frequency -- for a
special program featuring a new German C&W artist with Austin roots.
Her name is DanaMaria and she sings some great songs. Information's on
our Facebook page.

73 and Arrgghh. Always be yourself. Unless you can be a pirate. Then
always be a pirate. Texas Radio Shortwave Sailing into your ears from
the Lone Star State`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. NEWS NATION on WGN America has undergone a revamp. It
started a few months ago as 3 hours of straight news, 7 nights a week,
at 01-04 UT, and then played back at 04-07. We welcomed it since CNN
and MSNBC are mostly opinion even tho we agree with most of it. CNN
Headline News long ago was a lost cause, anything but, rather tabloid
stuff too tacky for CNN itself. Altho HQ in Chicago, WGN is supposedly drawing on the newsrooms and
talent of dozens of NexStar stations around the country --- including
KFOR in OKC, which is obliged to promote NN to the detriment of its
own primetime; but have never seen any news from KFOR on the network;
and seldom if ever any individual station input identified by name.
Tho I have hardly watched it religiously and completely. Anyhow, now they`ve added an hour-interview show instead of 3 hours of
different news --- a lot easier and less expensive to produce and fill
time, Banfield --- on March 7 guest Bryan Cranston; and another
different hour, The Donlon Report --- not sure what that`s about. News
blox reduced to two hours. Total span expanded, and weekends now
differ: All times UT, for standard time; no doubt to shift one UT hour earlier
next week from March 14 for DST in order to pretend to be at the same
local time --- except in AZ and HI, tough luck. M-F 2300-0800 UT Tue-Sat NEWS NATION EARLY EDITION/PRIME except:
BANFIELD 03-04 & 07-08; DONLON 00-01 & 04-05 UT Sun & Mon 0000-0600 NEWS NATION PRIME except:
BANFIELD 02-03 & 05-06. Just another cable network which market forces? have forced into
something other than its original specialized concept. If successful,
however, we anticipate NN expanding into even more of WGN America time
replacing tired old binge reruns, infomercials. It would have been
nice to tune in cable channel 85 here at any time day or night and
expect hard rolling news coverage. O, here`s how their website describes the new shows: ``At 10pm ET, you're looking to exhale. Ashleigh provides that respite
while still informing and entertaining. Watch big-name A-list
celebrities, newsmakers and public figures for a unique opportunity to
talk for an hour. No debates. No shouting over each other. A
conversation. ``Joe Donlon taps into a common sense point of view when it comes to
the most pressing and interesting issues and stories of the day...
something that seems to have been lost in the reach for right vs. left
on our competitors.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** VENEZUELA. 7500-AM, March 7 at 1800 tune-in, Spanish ID by YL for
93.7 FM, lively tropical music. At 1809 promo for ``Radio Venezuela
93.7 FM, así suena``, and more like it frequently. automated at every
break between tunes. After 1830 starts to sound distorted. still going
OK at 1937. 93.7 in El Tigre was ROCV`s original program source when it appeared
early October on 6906. 7500 is not USB or LSB, but AM, S4-S5 into
Bonaire SDR at midday, carrier offset varying slightly +7/10 Hz. Tnx
to March 7 WOR iog tip via ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, VENEZUELA, 7500 kHz, R. O. C. V., El
Tigre, according with a whatsapp from the station R. O. C. V. is
testing now, 1450 UTC on this frequency. Weak signal, fair carrier via
remote receiver in Bonaire``. It had last been on 6200, but off air for several weeks. We are still
awaiting any sign of legality, licensing for this on SW, such as a YV-
callsign. OTOH it seems that callsigns are not applied to 93.7; their disgraced
FB includes a Feb 18 notice about off air due to electricity problems,
and lots of grafix:

Same on Dec 25 and Oct 24! Is there anything there about a SW relay?
Not that I have found. Another with a girl finger-framing a heart over
her left breast. BTW, the Bonaire SDR waterfall shows it suffering from noise peaks
about every 65 kHz, e.g. 7475, 7540, fortunately with our 7500 falling
between them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 1944 UT March 7

** ALGERIA [non]. 6105, March 6 at 0523, Qur`an S9-S7 with flutter,
RTA relay via FRANCE this hour; aside 6100 Cuba, not quite strong
enough to be a problem (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ALGERIA [non]. 7315, March 6 at 1920 & 1935 chex, Qur`an from RTA
via FRANCE, poor with ACI at UTwente. Supposedly // 7375 where nothing
but ROMANIA`s two-hour transmission can be heard. Checking in case RTA
carry English segment from the International network as it was doing
last summer during DST season a UT hour earlier on the then frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, March 6 at 0522, RHC S9+20 in Spanish instead of
English after 0500, starting deportivo segment during `24 horas en el
mundo` newscast, and // 6060; while English is on 6000. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ECUADOR. 6050, UT Sat March 6 at 0526 tune-in, surprised to hear ID
in English for R. Slovakia International. O, it`s just an illustration
within the HCJB German DX program during extended weekend
transmission; followed by brief talk in German, a song, and off at
0530* sharp without further announcement. S7-S9 for only 1 kW. [non]. European POV background from March BDXC-UK Communication:
``HCJB Deutschland’s German DX programme, ‘Medienmagazin’, is
scheduled on Saturdays and Sundays at 0530, 1030, 1505, 1800 and 2205
UT. Frequencies include 3995 kHz from Weenermoor in north west Germany
near the Dutch border. But the programme is actually produced in
Scotland by Horst Wiese who has lived near Edinburgh for many years.
The HCJB “DX-Programm” has been recorded for the past couple of years
at the studios of Revival FM in Cumbernauld. Past editions are online
at:
https://hcjb-medienmagazin.blogspot.com/
(HCJB Infobrief 4/2020)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 11625-11630-11635 DRM, March 6 at 1737, RFI French via TDF
Issoudun confirmed, lo-fi only 8.08 kbps but solid no dropouts at
S9/+10, via Kuwait Kiwi SDR, picked since target is S Asia. Labeled
``AAC(1000) TDF EXP Data 8.08 kbps`` and ``Medium range use, multipath
resistant``. I`ve been intending to check the scheduled 2330-2400 on
9880-9885-9890, ex-5870-5875-5880, where I was hearing it in
February. 9880-9885-9890-DRM, so I do, March 6 at 2330: Rochester NY Kiwi SDR,
no DRM detected; UTwente can hear DRM noise in AM mode but too weak;
Bonaire decodes intermittently at SNR +/- 14 kHz, S9-S8; displays same
parameters as 11630 above (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWEDEN [and non]. 6200, March 7 at 0002, JBA carrier to Bonaire
SDR, surely not ROCV Venezuela; Radio Nord Revival, Sala, Sweden is
supposed to start a 47/48 hour special anniversary show now with 10 kW
on A3H = reduced carrier USB. 0010 I try UTwente which is slightly
better, trace of music? but can`t find it USB only. Probably Tibet
which is on 6200 about 21 hours a day. Nord alternative frequencies
publicized are inadvisable now either: 6035 next to huge Spanish 6040;
6130 also probably weak Tibet. Why were they given Tibet-clashing
channels? To be in Swedish except a couple spans partly in English as
I point out on WORLD OF RADIO 2076: Sunday at 05-07 and 11-12; Monday
at 20-21 UT. See:
http://radionordrevival.blogspot.com/
for full schedule, QSL info (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 417-MCW kHz, March 6 at 0746, as I am almost asleep, I keep
copying NDB ID as ../.-.- which is I/Ya the Cyrillic letter. But it
must really be the usual occupant of 417, IY, ../-.-- Charles City,
Iowa which I have not noted miskeying before. I was uncertain whether
the final tone was long or short, i.e. -.-. which would have been C,
but there is no IC around here either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2076 monitoring: zzz thru the 1300
UT Saturday March 6 airing on WRMI 15770; did anyone hear it? Confirmed starting at 2043 Sat Mar 6 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM MO, via nearby
KB0FX remote. With some glitches not on my original recording, not
clear whether from playback or remote. There were nonesuch on
preceding ham show. Also confirmed Sat Mar 6 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, poor on PL-880 with
reelout clipon. Also confirmed Sat Mar 6 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, immediately after
Tirana music, no ID; poor S9-S5 direct but at 2325 check via Maine
SDR, S9/+10; Rochester S9-S8 but both with glitches/skips/clix every
few seconds. This seems to be a defect on Kiwis when run in the
SAM/SAL/SAU/SAS modes. Next: 0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0500]

first biminute of `YROT` theme, openings by synthetic voices, Third
Mate Susan, and Cap`n Ric with eQSL offers for this show of lady
performers only. I hear it direct on the portable ATS-909 anext the
computer, but prefer to listen via the Kansas City Kiwi where it`s VG
S9+10. Never are the ladies nor their songs identified, just one after
another with occasional ID/QSL breaks by Susan, such as at 0215, 0231
Cap`n Ric on the poop-deck, 0234, and 0257 outro, YROT theme. Instead
the ladylist if not the playlist has been posted, and forwarded by
another Texan, Terry Colgan: ``ARTIST LINEUP FOR LADIES OF TEXAS MUSIC TRIBUTE ON WRMI TONIGHT

March 20 - 0900 UTC 6070 kHz and 1800 UTC 3955 kHz via Channel 292 in

(From TRSW's Facebook page)`` One song in Spanish caught my ear at 0219 with a possible title,
``Canta, Guitarra Mia``. Probably Lydia Mendoza, one third into the
list (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Mar 7 at 0125, `Theater Organ Under The Arch`
is underway on WTWW-2, but only a quick check as I listen to only one
music show at a time, `Encore` classical on WRMI 5850 this hour,
having missed the first airing at 23-24 on 7570 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. Am glad to see that ondemand access to the superb CBS Sunday
Morning has been restored to proper funxion: On March 6 I check the
current/most recent one of Feb 28:
https://www.cbsnews.com/sunday-morning/
A single full file plays straight thru with all commercials removed,
totaling just over 62 minutes. One may also play individual segments
linked just below if desired. I haven`t tried to retrieve older
episodes, whether the same options apply (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1540.21, March 6 circa 0730 UT, trace of a carrier here
but not outstanding like last two nights; confusing to the ear as
there are more carriers off 1540.000 including one circa 1540.02 and
the usual 1539.96 = KGBC. See my previous report about KGBC and KEDA
as well as the mystery, which has been discussed further in the ABDX
group: Heterodyne on 1540 ``I don't think the original reporter mentioned if the het was on the
low or high side. Do you hear the gospel station on 1540.21 kHz? It is
sometimes audible here:
http://kiwisdr.ku4by.com:8073/?f=1540.21usbz10
Thank you and best regards, Mauno`` Ritola, Finland Where is that? Is labeled: ``© bluebison.net KU4BY's SolarSDR
Elizabeth City, NC | Grid: FM16vf, ASL: 30m, [map]
Antenna: Wilson 1K about 15' AGL. Powered by the Carolina Sun!`` I try it near local noon at 1631 March 6: displays 1540 carrier + 50v
Hz but nothing audible. There are far too many GOS stations on 1540
circa NC (gh) ``Mar 6 at 6:39 AM --- The station furthest off frequency is on
1539.904 (NNE/SSW) with others appearing on 1539.9732 (N/S), 1539.9755
(WSW – signed off @ 2345 ET), 1539.9835 (NW - CHIN) and 1540.022 (W).
Strongest station is on 1539.998 to the WNW (KXEL). 1539.998 tops the channel when KXEL is nulled. That one is Bahamas.
The het is definitely the 1539.905 but taking Glenn’s note into
account it is probably some station in the Eastern South who didn’t
throw the switch. Rick S., Rodanthe NC OBX FM25go`` IRCA March 5: ``Walter Salmaniw 4:44am #18219 --- Again I can hear the
het quite well in Victoria and see a relatively strong carrier on
1540.203 tonight, as well as others quite a ways off channel on
1540.023 and 1539.908. As on 1350, there are a LOT of carriers spaced
closer to the nominal. The 1540.2 channel is near audio into Victoria.
73, Walt`` That`s really far. In western USA the only 1540s are the big one in LA
CA, 50 kW KMPC in Korean, also ethnic KXPA 5 kW Bellvue WA near Walt,
and KASA Phoenix AZ, 19 watts of ranchera at night. March 6 at 2329 on ABDX, Rich:
``I have it on 1540.205 but can’t make it out. Seems to be WSW. But
here’s what’s weird. I have similar signals that pulsate up and down
along with the .205 on 1540.113 and 1540.021 – in each case 92 Hz
down. Rick S., Rodanthe NC OBX FM25go`` Rick`s WSW bearing from OBX correlates with my ESE from Enid for best
bets: WTBI near Greenville SC and WKVQ Eatonton, central Georgia. Both
10 kW daytimers. FCC official March LSS for both 2345 UT. Has there
been any change now? Anyone near-local to those locations to check?
Perhaps Bob in Bamberg SC original reporter can tell if it`s NW from
Greenville or West from Eatonton. 73, (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0356 UT March 7

CUBA. 6100, March 6 at 0522, RHC S=9+20 in Spanish instead of
English after 0500, starting deportivo segment during '24 horas en el
mundo' newscast, and // 6060; while English is on 6000. Something's
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA [non]. 6105, March 6 at 0523, Qur`an S9-S7 with flutter,
RTA relay via FRANCE this hour; aside 6100 Cuba, not quite strong
enough to be a problem (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ALGERIA [non]. 7315, March 6 at 1920 & 1935 chex, Qur`an from RTA
via FRANCE, poor with ACI at UTwente. Supposedly // 7375 where nothing
but ROMANIA`s two-hour transmission can be heard. Checking in case RTA
carry English segment from the International network as it was doing
last summer during DST season a UT hour earlier on the then frequency
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, March 6 at 0522, RHC S9+20 in Spanish instead of
English after 0500, starting deportivo segment during `24 horas en el
mundo` newscast, and // 6060; while English is on 6000. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ECUADOR. 6050, UT Sat March 6 at 0526 tune-in, surprised to hear ID
in English for R. Slovakia International. O, it`s just an illustration
within the HCJB German DX program during extended weekend
transmission; followed by brief talk in German, a song, and off at
0530* sharp without further announcement. S7-S9 for only 1 kW. [non]. European POV background from March BDXC-UK Communication:
``HCJB Deutschland’s German DX programme, ‘Medienmagazin’, is
scheduled on Saturdays and Sundays at 0530, 1030, 1505, 1800 and 2205
UT. Frequencies include 3995 kHz from Weenermoor in north west Germany
near the Dutch border. But the programme is actually produced in
Scotland by Horst Wiese who has lived near Edinburgh for many years.
The HCJB “DX-Programm” has been recorded for the past couple of years
at the studios of Revival FM in Cumbernauld. Past editions are online
at:

(HCJB Infobrief 4/2020)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 11625-11630-11635 DRM, March 6 at 1737, RFI French via TDF
Issoudun confirmed, lo-fi only 8.08 kbps but solid no dropouts at
S9/+10, via Kuwait Kiwi SDR, picked since target is S Asia. Labeled
``AAC(1000) TDF EXP Data 8.08 kbps`` and ``Medium range use, multipath
resistant``. I`ve been intending to check the scheduled 2330-2400 on
9880-9885-9890, ex-5870-5875-5880, where I was hearing it in
February. 9880-9885-9890-DRM, so I do, March 6 at 2330: Rochester NY Kiwi SDR,
no DRM detected; UTwente can hear DRM noise in AM mode but too weak;
Bonaire decodes intermittently at SNR +/- 14 kHz, S9-S8; displays same
parameters as 11630 above (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWEDEN [and non]. 6200, March 7 at 0002, JBA carrier to Bonaire
SDR, surely not ROCV Venezuela; Radio Nord Revival, Sala, Sweden is
supposed to start a 47/48 hour special anniversary show now with 10 kW
on A3H = reduced carrier USB. 0010 I try UTwente which is slightly
better, trace of music? but can`t find it USB only. Probably Tibet
which is on 6200 about 21 hours a day. Nord alternative frequencies
publicized are inadvisable now either: 6035 next to huge Spanish 6040;
6130 also probably weak Tibet. Why were they given Tibet-clashing
channels? To be in Swedish except a couple spans partly in English as
I point out on WORLD OF RADIO 2076: Sunday at 05-07 and 11-12; Monday
at 20-21 UT. See:

for full schedule, QSL info (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 417-MCW kHz, March 6 at 0746, as I am almost asleep, I keep
copying NDB ID as ../.-.- which is I/Ya the Cyrillic letter. But it
must really be the usual occupant of 417, IY, ../-.-- Charles City,
Iowa which I have not noted miskeying before. I was uncertain whether
the final tone was long or short, i.e. -.-. which would have been C,
but there is no IC around here either (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2076 monitoring: zzz thru the 1300
UT Saturday March 6 airing on WRMI 15770; did anyone hear it? Confirmed starting at 2043 Sat Mar 6 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM MO, via nearby
KB0FX remote. With some glitches not on my original recording, not
clear whether from playback or remote. There were nonesuch on
preceding ham show. Also confirmed Sat Mar 6 at 2230 on WRMI 9955, poor on PL-880 with
reelout clipon. Also confirmed Sat Mar 6 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, immediately after
Tirana music, no ID; poor S9-S5 direct but at 2325 check via Maine
SDR, S9/+10; Rochester S9-S8 but both with glitches/skips/clix every
few seconds. This seems to be a defect on Kiwis when run in the
SAM/SAL/SAU/SAS modes. Next: 0400vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0415; as late as 0500]

thanks this week to Kelley Sprout, KB3LR, Hughesville PA, for a MO to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. The same address for a
check in US funds on a US bank One may also contribute via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com
- not necessarily US funds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, March 6 at 1549, WRMI-3 is very much back with bigsig
BS after missing most of yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5950, March 7 at 0200, WRMI with Texas Radio Shortwave,
first biminute of `YROT` theme, openings by synthetic voices, Third
Mate Susan, and Cap`n Ric with eQSL offers for this show of lady
performers only. I hear it direct on the portable ATS-909 anext the
computer, but prefer to listen via the Kansas City Kiwi where it`s VG
S9+10. Never are the ladies nor their songs identified, just one after
another with occasional ID/QSL breaks by Susan, such as at 0215, 0231
Cap`n Ric on the poop-deck, 0234, and 0257 outro, YROT theme. Instead
the ladylist if not the playlist has been posted, and forwarded by
another Texan, Terry Colgan: ``ARTIST LINEUP FOR LADIES OF TEXAS MUSIC TRIBUTE ON WRMI TONIGHT
Cap'n Ric is pleased to announce the artists featured in the upcoming
Ladies of Texas Music Tribute:
Jeanie C. Riley
Jamie Lin Wilson
Sunny Sweeney
Lisa Loeb
Norah Jones
Lydia Mendoza
Marcia Ball
Lucinda Williams
St. Vincent
Barbara Lynn
"Sippie” Wallace
“Big Mama” Thornton

Lacey Sturm. Cap'n wagers you haven't heard of many of these female artists, and
also wagers that you'll enjoy their music. The tribute program will air several times:
March 7 - 0200 UTC 5950 kHz via WRMI
March 20 - 0900 UTC 6070 kHz and 1800 UTC 3955 kHz via Channel 292 in
Germany
March 28 - 0200 UTC 6160 kHz via WBCQ. Third Mate Susan designed a special limited edition eQSL to be sent to
listeners who submit correct reception reports to
texasradiosw@gmail.com.
(From TRSW's Facebook page)`` One song in Spanish caught my ear at 0219 with a possible title,
``Canta, Guitarra Mia``. Probably Lydia Mendoza, one third into the
list (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Mar 7 at 0125, `Theater Organ Under The Arch`
is underway on WTWW-2, but only a quick check as I listen to only one
music show at a time, `Encore` classical on WRMI 5850 this hour,
having missed the first airing at 23-24 on 7570 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. Am glad to see that ondemand access to the superb CBS Sunday
Morning has been restored to proper funxion: On March 6 I check the
current/most recent one of Feb 28:
https://www.cbsnews.com/sunday-morning/
A single full file plays straight thru with all commercials removed,
totaling just over 62 minutes. One may also play individual segments
linked just below if desired. I haven`t tried to retrieve older
episodes, whether the same options apply (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1540.21, March 6 circa 0730 UT, trace of a carrier here
but not outstanding like last two nights; confusing to the ear as
there are more carriers off 1540.000 including one circa 1540.02 and
the usual 1539.96 = KGBC. See my previous report about KGBC and KEDA
as well as the mystery, which has been discussed further in the ABDX
group: Heterodyne on 1540 ``I don't think the original reporter mentioned if the het was on the
low or high side. Do you hear the gospel station on 1540.21 kHz? It is
sometimes audible here:
http://kiwisdr.ku4by.com:8073/?f=1540.21usbz10
Thank you and best regards, Mauno`` Ritola, Finland Where is that? Is labeled: ``© bluebison.net KU4BY's SolarSDR
Elizabeth City, NC | Grid: FM16vf, ASL: 30m, [map]
Antenna: Wilson 1K about 15' AGL. Powered by the Carolina Sun!`` I try it near local noon at 1631 March 6: displays 1540 carrier + 50v
Hz but nothing audible. There are far too many GOS stations on 1540
circa NC (gh) ``Mar 6 at 6:39 AM --- The station furthest off frequency is on
1539.904 (NNE/SSW) with others appearing on 1539.9732 (N/S), 1539.9755
(WSW – signed off @ 2345 ET), 1539.9835 (NW - CHIN) and 1540.022 (W).
Strongest station is on 1539.998 to the WNW (KXEL). 1539.998 tops the channel when KXEL is nulled. That one is Bahamas.
The het is definitely the 1539.905 but taking Glenn’s note into
account it is probably some station in the Eastern South who didn’t
throw the switch. Rick S., Rodanthe NC OBX FM25go`` IRCA March 5: ``Walter Salmaniw 4:44am #18219 --- Again I can hear the
het quite well in Victoria and see a relatively strong carrier on
1540.203 tonight, as well as others quite a ways off channel on
1540.023 and 1539.908. As on 1350, there are a LOT of carriers spaced
closer to the nominal. The 1540.2 channel is near audio into Victoria.
73, Walt`` That`s really far. In western USA the only 1540s are the big one in LA
CA, 50 kW KMPC in Korean, also ethnic KXPA 5 kW Bellvue WA near Walt,
and KASA Phoenix AZ, 19 watts of ranchera at night. March 6 at 2329 on ABDX, Rich:
``I have it on 1540.205 but can’t make it out. Seems to be WSW. But
here’s what’s weird. I have similar signals that pulsate up and down
along with the .205 on 1540.113 and 1540.021 – in each case 92 Hz
down. Rick S., Rodanthe NC OBX FM25go`` Rick`s WSW bearing from OBX correlates with my ESE from Enid for best
bets: WTBI near Greenville SC and WKVQ Eatonton, central Georgia. Both
10 kW daytimers. FCC official March LSS for both 2345 UT. Has there
been any change now? Anyone near-local to those locations to check?
Perhaps Bob in Bamberg SC original reporter can tell if it`s NW from
Greenville or West from Eatonton. 73, (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0356 UT March 7
