KAMG-LP, ``Amigo``, has been off the air for a few years, so it`s
finally official; glad to see this worthless station go for good,
keeping good DX frequency open (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5890, March 5 at 0730, WWCR is S9-S6 of JBM
TOMBS. Whew, 5850 at same time, WRMI is S9+30 of merely undermodulated
Brother Scare (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Friday March 5 at 2259 and next few minutes, zero
signal from REE just when another rare English semihour be imminent.
Not unusual for at least one of their Noblejas transmitters to be AWOL
for days; 11940 for S America is JBA at 2302, can`t tell if really
English; nothing on 12030 either, the ME frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 5 at 2259, VP signal from VOT, but the 4+1 or
was it 5+1 timesignal cuts thru, ending late at 2300:03.5. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler. A simple time announcement could be
rough, but pips imply much greater accuracy! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, March 5 at 1523, no signal from WRMI-5, which is
supposed to remain on with TOMBS until 1700. Must be a problem as 9455
and stronger 9395 are well audible.

9955, March 5 at 2258, WRMI still absent, but plenty hard jamming
against nothing; more but less on 9965 from which R. República is many
years gone out of Costa Rica. 9455, 9395 and lesser WRMI transmitters
remain nominal.

9955, March 6 at 0245, now an S4 VP carrier but no modulation audible;
9455 & 9395 are JBA carriers; no signals at all from Habana 9650 &
9535. At 0300 K-index is 4 with G1 storms expected. Often there is not
much correlation in propagation from Okee and Habana (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7490.2 webcast), UT Sat March 6 from 0100, WBCQ with
`AAAWWW`, cuts theme short, as always fiddling with mics at first;
this time his doesn`t work so she shares hers. They are back in Maine
where it`s 9 degrees, a good drive until the last few miles into a
zero-visibility blizzard. Quite an adjustment as it had been 80+ in
Florida. A visit for maintenance and checking things, so apparently
going back south soon.

Last/this week there was a wind storm; when it`s 20, 30 or 40 mph [?
not much for an OKie], the Ampegon rotatable antenna has to be parked
and closed down. Tho it`s anything but solid, all its metal wires,
parts add up to a wind load. I wonder if parking position depend on
which way the wind be blowing. If it happen to be minimal at the
current azimuth, could it remain on?

0116 open for e-mail. 0118 ranting starts about moonbats never
stopping masking to control us; calling President Biden a cadaver.
Time for me to zone out. 0123 a 100-amp control breaker burned up as
soon as they arrived. Reading an article about the radio biz. 0200 to
``Sail Away``, and then Hal Turner; is that his theme? Then checking
MO remote. H.T. is now on both 6160- and 7490+, but on Area 51 webcast
it`s $ music and 0206 Zombo. John Carver`s version of:

``Tonight's AAWWW --- started on time on 7490 and two minutes later on
6160. Allan and Angela in the studio. Allan and Angela are in studio 1
in Maine this week. The pre-amp for Allan's mic has been damaged by
lightning so they're using one mic. Allan talks about the storms in
Maine this week, both snow and wind. Said the wind kept the rotatable
antenna on the superstation from turning properly so they shut the
transmitter down till the wind stopped. Allan says they're just in
Maine for a visit and was complaining about the extra clothes and the
colder temps in Maine this week. Said it was 22 today .

Quickly turned political and they talked of Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head
again, the Land of Lakes Indian, the Coca Cola polar bear etc. Masks,
the election, voting, the virus, China, our beloved Trump, the fact
that he won the election, any praise for the response to the virus or
the appearance of the virus is because of Trump etc. Angela ended it
by saying that was her Angela's Angle for this week.

Allan mentioned another problem with something that burned up on one
of the transmitters but I didn't catch what it was. He also said it
was time to talk about radio and Angela started in with another
political rant. Allan finally started reading an article about the
current status of radio and the effect of the pandemic on ad revenue.
Signal on 7490 went to hell about 0130. Reading of emails at 0154.
Closing prayer at 0157 and the program was off the air at 0200. John,
Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, March 6 at 0251:
*684(2), 774, 837, 882, *891, 1107(2), 1125(2), 1305(2); mostly
correlating with lower-latitude SW Europe-Spain & NW Africa-Algeria,

First broadcasts confirmed UT Friday March 5 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 VG
direct; 7780 VG S9+15 like a local to Maine SDR, but no signal to
UTwente where it`s aimed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7570 & > 7730, March 5 at 0315, both S9+30 of dead air as
Brother Scare`s feed to WRMI has failed. Also dead on weaker 7780; and
5850 S9+20/30. Other programming remains modulating on 5950, 5800, JBA
4980, 9395, 9455, but 9955 is occupied only by pulse jamming (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, March 4 at 0647, S9/+10 of dead air from WWCR-4
instead of Brother HyStairical. Or is there a trace of JB modulation?
This has happened before especially on UT Thursdays -- mixup in
automation scheduling? TOMBS is still nominal on squealy 3215 WWCR-1,
and on 5850 WRMI. However, by 0800, Ivo Ivanov reported no signal at
all on 5890, back by 0930. Later in the day more problems were
reported with WRMI transmitters, must be having issues (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, March 5 at 0305, WWCR-4 with big buzz on the Fulcher
hour audio, peaking plus/minus 4-5 kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540, March 4 at 0402 UT, Bob Smoak asked on the ABDX group,
``I'm getting a low pitched heterodyne on 1540 in Bamberg, SC. Any
ideas where it might be coming from?`` My first response was KGBC
Galveston TX on 1539.96 as I`ve heard repeatedly. His receiver could
not tell whether it was plus or minus.

When I tuned in myself at 0707-0715 UT, I found a carrier on 1540.210,
and so had Mauno Ritola via a remote. Could not hear any modulation on
it and hard to DF, but not KGBC which was weaker on the minus side. At
0726, KGBC had gospel-huxtering in Spanish and there`s a third station
with Mexican music, presumed KEDA San Antonio.

I`m on it again the next night from 0322 UT March 5: 1540.21 carrier
is there again and now I can DF it to WNW/ESE. Possibilities are
daytimers or peanut-powers at night, starting with 10 kW WTBI near Bob
in Pickens SC; KDYN Ozark AR; WKVQ Eatonton GA; WKXG Greenwood MS. No
others really fit the DF axis somewhat south of due east, and nothing
at all somewhat north of due west.

When it`s nulled, Mexmx is dominant, presumed KEDA with live DJ and
frequent CST timechex, but I can`t catch any IDs or local references.
Also at times looping further CCW, KGBC gospanish, at 0330 plugging a
phone in the 254 area code which is around Waco, not Houston. KXEL
Waterloo IA 50 kW not really a factor until a bit of English talk at
0346; northerly propagation diminished. May be cause of SAH about 5 Hz
vs KEDA?

Finally at 0401 amid the Spanish, a canned English ID for ``99.9 FM
serving San Antonio, Texas``. So Wayne won`t have to remind me, that`s
K260CC, as on page 299 of the NRC AM Log, part of the Group: Radio
Jalapeño. Only a minute later at 0402, live DJ pronounces KEDA in
Spanish as well as Radio Jalapeño, and plugs a 55th-annivesary event
for the station on March 13-14, with an address, and social-distancing
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
