today unlike yesterday, during a recipe, S9+35/40 into UTwente, +18 Hz
carrier offset with some hum but sufficient modulation.

2359 recheck now Chinese is dominant, but ripple SAH from another
carrier, maybe TRT remnant but soon off. 2400 timesignal and anthem,
ZRGD ID, now reading +12 Hz carrier offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 6125, Jan 5 at 0424, VOT is S9/S7 but undermodulated to
JBM, unusable. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 347 MCW kHz, Jan 4 at 0422 UT, AFK, 25 watt ND beacon from
Nebraska City NE. Not often heard. Tuned in USB, with bleed from

** U S A. 5935, 5890, 4840, 3215, Jan 5 at 0425, all four WWCR
transmitters are OFF!!! Not for storms as Blitzortung tho not checked
until 0602, shows absolutely no storms anywhere in North America. Good
riddance? Nothing on homepage to explain. But by 0615 recheck, all are
back on except 3215 the BS is incredibly weak, must be ailing, S6-S9,
while 4840 hits S9+40 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5830, Jan 5 at 0426, WTWW-1 is S9+30/20 of dead air, like
last night? Maybe it`s not Ted to wake up; when I was on WTWW, the
programming of old SFA tapes and anything else was handled remotedly
by some guy in Pennsylvania (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540.21, Jan 5 at 0441 UT, big het against 1540.00 signals,
identified months ago and still going whenever checked, all night, the
10 kW *daytimer* WKVQ, Eatonton, Georgia, little or no modulation as
if that make it OK. KGBC Galveston TX used to be on the minus side of
1540 but not heard lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, January 5 at 0433:
657, 684, 747, 774-2, 909, 999, 1089, 1107, 1215, 1611? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4095.95 approx., Jan 5 at 0429, extremely slow Morse
code beacon ID as TCO repeated several times, and then TE2- sent once,
that is the last character is dash, -....- Much stronger than trace of
DW desert whooper nearby. Several other reports of TCO here:

from ``North American News``, edited by Andrew Brade, January Medium
Wave News:

``1200 KFNW West Fargo, ND – station has a CP and Programme Test
Authority for a new antenna installation, at a new site, with the same
facilities as previously. The station is still licensed for 50 kW days
and 13 kW nights, both with a directional array from a four-
tower installation of which three are used during the day. The pattern
for the directional array is to the north. Pending the relocation of
the towers, KFNW had been operating under a non-directional STA since
June 2021 with 10 kW days and 3.25 kW nights`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,

America. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9700, Jan 3 at 0452, RHC English here instead of alt. 6165,
VG S9+30 and good modulation; propaganda claiming Cuba is ``not on its
knees``, and the ``economy is viable``. Time for another link to The
Other Side, altho not exactly the same subject:
``Like the Prosecutor's Office, Cuban judges turn their backs on
justice in the trials against 11-J protesters --- They have not
challenged the lack of arguments to support the crime of sedition, nor
the absence of impartial witnesses against the accused.

** U S A. 5085, Jan 3 at 0433, WTWW-2 is unusually off this early, and
along with it the parasitic spurs circa 5072 & 5097. Then I see this
posted at 0415:
``[WOR] 5085 transmitter problems --- Not sure whether anyone else
noticed, but 5085 suddenly dropped off the air sometime about an hour
ago (now 0413). Clearly a fault of some sort. Just now, I'm catching
microsecond bursts of speech, so they're trying to fix things at WTWW.
I was enjoying their music program while working in the shack. Hope
they make it back soon! 73, Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC`` (Glenn
