** CANADA. 6754-USB, May 21 at 0257, Trenton Military time check as
0255z! Only two minutes off rather than 61, but still not good enough.
Let`s hope the meteo info be more accurate. At first: ``no report
received`` from Winnipeg, Cold Lake, but then some others succeed. Why
don`t all stations reliably send reports?? Or why can`t CHR reliably
receive them? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13630, May 21 at 1403, JBA spurblob from RHC 13700 which is
only S8-S9; can`t detect a match on 13770. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, May 21 at 2210, dead air from RHC when French is
scheduled. At 2301 when English should start, dead signal. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, May 21 at 0613, after two nights` absence, ORTM must be
back on with S9+15 signal but just barely modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-AM, May 22 at 0107, pirate music S7-S9, not
enough vs storm noise level; 0108 unreadable announcement. These say
it`s WDOG:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6960-AM, May 22 at 0107 UT, pirate music S9/+10;
must be Ball Smacker Radio on regular Friday-at-8-Central sked. Yes:
ID with tenpins at 0132. Better than 6925 but still too much noise.
Many more logs:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 21 at 1552 and still at 2330 UT, Enid`s only
TV signal, K17JN-D is on the air at usual local-strong level, but
totally black and silent on all 5 subchannels of 3ABN network;
including 17-5 which still triggers ``unsupported audio codec`` on my
Sanyo screen but not with antenna feed split onto my CRT set via STB
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Friday May 21 at 2200, token English from REE starts
with timesignal 1 second late compared to WWV; can`t they do any
better? Justin Coe says later will feature a new album by José Luís
Montón, of flamenco mixing classical, but first Amy Egan on what`s
happening in Spain. This is VG S8-S9, better than the other three all
audible, 15520, 11940 and 11685. Some of her topix: Those with first
AstraZeneca shot may get their second from Pfizer with no problems.
Fútbol game to resume in stadium at 30% capacity. DNA study by
University of Granada to determine Colón`s ethnicity; Catalan from
Aragón, maybe. 2208 into the music starting with ``Voy a quedarme``
which is Spain`s entry in the Eurovision Song Contest, finale this
Sunday in Holanda. 2210 versions of Schubert`s ``Ave Maria``. ``Song
of Freedom`` inspired by Beethoven`s Pathétique Sonata, and more to
2330 mistimesignal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 21 at 2158, heavy S9 NSS RTTY only, no sign of
VOT English to NAm; but at 2210 RTTY is off and VP music audible,
S6-S8 but undermodulated. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOE)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2087 monitoring: NOT confirmed Friday May 21
at 2030 on IRRS via Italia-AM, 918 kHz, via IZ3EAW nearby remote,
steady S7.7. Some talk show cut off at 2030 for ID, but then FSN and
FSN Spotlite, and then VOA News! WOR is still on the Friday 22:30 CEST
program schedule of IRRS. We can only hope the SW broadcast on 7290
across Europe from Bulgaria will really resume as planned this
Saturday at 1801 when also scheduled on 918. Next:

1300 UT Saturday WRMI 15770 to NE

good idea!

[not necessarily in US funds]. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, May 21 at 1400, opening gospel huxter from Pánama
City, FL, especially on WRMI as he keeps mentioning. Subject is
delusions suffered by Christians! But not the main one, surely.
Wrapping up at 1413, says he`s on M-F; and 1415 into world music fill,
heavy SE Asian? percussion piece; 1429 ``calling Ivory Coast`` etc.,
ID cribbed from WNYW, 1430 JIP BS. Skedgrid updated May 10 now shows
this at 1400 as if a semi-hour long, with TOMBS not starting until
1430 daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9), May 22 from 0000, webcast of WBCQ `AAAWWW`. Not
listening intently, but some notes: long discussion of UFOs --- maybe
they are forms of pure intelligent energy, the ultimate evolution of
us humans too? How long has it been since Angela sat down and wrote a
letter with a pen or pencil? She can`t remember. 0036 first caller on
the air does not identify himself yet he goes on for some 5? minutes
uninterrupted until Allan finally asks who he is, so he can blow him
off? Tim. 0044 finally datestamp as 21 May YOOL 2021 from studio 9 in
Deland of Fla. He then emphasizes that WBCQ does QSL ``99.9%`` and
reads a number of reception reports in some detail. 0054 `Angela`s
Angle` does not amount to much, as then Allan mainly worries about the
#2 pandemic: obesity; need to weigh airline passengers each to avoid
overloading. John Carver`s version:

``Tonight's show started on time on 6160 and 7490. Angela looks
beautiful this evening and if the show was on TV it would be X rated
according to Allan. Opening talk about writing letters which morphs
into talk of QSL cards and requesting same. A brief comment about 6160
being a busy transmitter and now carrying the old Area 51 which he
named Area 61 moved the conversation to UFOs and Aliens. Phone call at
0036 talking about aliens amongst us.

Reading of some QSL requests at 0046. Angela's Angle at 0054 talking
about weight limits on airplanes and a new practice of some airlines
weighing passengers before they board implying that they would refuse
access to terribly obese people as they break seats, have more health
problems and could cause a crash because of the plane being
overloaded. No reading of [any other] emails this evening. Closing
prayer at 0059. Off at 0101. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

Glenn Hauser Log Roundup May 13-19

Please note and spread the word - for those not on a list where my
almost-daily all-band but mainly SW log reports appear -- or for those
who are but find this a more convenient archive, weekly merged
roundups of all these reports in their original form are posted early
every UT Thursday via:
http://www.worldofradio.com/Hauserlogs.html

The latest one direct:
https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2021_0513_0519.txt

** CUBA. 6060, May 20 at 0612, RHC English with Chief Meteorologist
providing hardly-needed weather info for the NW Hemisphere, but big
humbuzz again on this frequency; while 6100 & 6165 are equally good;
6000 is off; and 5040 in Spanish. Ivo keeps reporting 5040 in
``wrong`` language before and after 06; but maybe now it could be the
``right`` language if intentionally changed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ETHIOPIA [non]. WRMI new skedgrid dated May 10 via wrmi.net at very
bottom shows A-21 relays via TDF FRANCE, ending with:

``M07 Projet: Raadiyyoni Dirree Shaggar 17:00 17:30 0:30 Ethiopie 48W
Mul ISS 15445 19 500 4/4/.8 128 7123456``

So unlike the others, it`s projected. Google translate identifies the
name as Somali, which is a minolity language in Ethiopia. Removing the
first word, however, if guesses Hindi, in neither case translating the
second and third words, must be proper names. Broadly searching on the
full name gets nothing but the Bulgarian DX blog where this is also
mentioned today.

I check 15445 May 20 at 1700, but indeed no signals yet into Kuwait
SDR or UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** MALI. 5995, May 20 at 0611, for second night, Bamako is missing.
How about the day frequency after 0800, 9635? Seldom heard here and I
think was already sporadic (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2087)

** NEW ZEALAND [non]. 11725, May 20 at 0603, no signal from RNZI, tho
Vanuatu manages a JBA carrier on 11835. Since it`s Thursday, maybe
RNZI sked askew for maintenance chex. Also have signals on 11895,
11995, 12030, 12050. 11895 is usual NMI; the others? Per Aoki, 11995 =
RFI Hausa; 12030 BBC French via Sao Tome; 12050 Ndadrason via
Woofferton (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2086 monitoring: confirmed UT Thu May 20 at
0130 on WRMI 5010, S9+15 but noisy into Bonaire SDR.

First WOR 2087 broadcasts confirmed on WRMIs, UT Fri May 21 at 0130,
on 7780, S9 and noisy into UTwente; and 5850, VG S9+35/40 into KB0FX
remote in MO, also VG direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 5890, May 20 at 0609, WWCR Dead Brother Scare, but
with Dead Gene Scott audio from 5935 clearly audible mixing at
somewhat lower level. 5935? Also such a modulation mix at about equal
levels, and S9+30! Among several dead gospel huxters WWCR propagates
but now WWCR outdoes itself, two at a time, twice! In all these years
of SWBC, WWCR still doesn`t have its basic act together; human error,
or what?

When both signals be strong as this we`ve easily heard
inter-modulation = leapfrog mixing product on 5980, another 45 kHz
upward --- but not now, not even a carrier under the Cuban jamming
against nothing. Well, WWCR manages to mix itself up one way or
another! How about the other two WWCRs? At 0613, also dead the air on
4840 at S9+20/30; 3215 is TOMBS alone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF
RADIO 2087)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Wed May 19 at 1513 tune-in via
Pardinho, Brasil KiwiSDR, LRA36 amid historical talk about events in
1911, 1812, colores; S5-S7; ``Nacional, la Radio Pública ---`` ID,
efemérides; 1516 songs; 1526 LRA36 ID; 1530 ``Nacional, Antártida
Argentina``, songs. 1535 sign-off, repeats Saturday and back next
Wednesday; 1536 Antártida themesong. 1539 immediately ``sign-on`` of
same? show, in Spanish, German, English, Russian. Explains derivation
of Antártida from original Greek, Anta. song, 1545 brief weather
conditions, this is program #19, 1550 mostly music until 1601* chopped
off air abruptly during tune. This time I did not try to detect
whether reduced carrier linger (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, May 19 at 0615, RHC English is S9+20/30 of big humbuzz
only, no program modulation. 6100 is also dead air of S9+10/20 and
light humbuzz at same pitch; then bits of modulation cutting on and
off, and the same on 6060 before gone again. Wiggle that patchcord.
All these are off now: 6165, 6145, 6000, 5040. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, May 19 at 0613, no signal from ORTM; I don`t often
bother to log it while it`s there every night; propagation OK with
7254.9 Nigeria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed May 19 at 2215, token English from REE is VG into
VA SDR going from Hallelujah Chorus to a Basque accordionist laced
with anti-war comments in English, et al. Then a Piazzola tango at
2225. With such VG signals it`s fun to listen in SAS mode, i.e.
synchro artificial stereo --- except the SAM+ modes on all the Kiwis
I`ve tried are marred by clix every few sex (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 19 at 2214, VOT English is on today with music at
quick check via VA SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2086 monitoring: NOT confirmed Wed May 19 at
1030 on WRMI 5850. From: Richard Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada,
From the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF,
Antenna: random long wires in the trees. Dear Glenn: 5850 kHz, 1030,
1058, outstanding signal, not much heard, no voice, there’s always
something wrong at WRMI, USA, no audio heard, May 19 UTC 2021. 73’s,
Richard, May 19, 2021``

NOT confirmed Wed May 19 at 2100 on WRMI 7780: after BZ ID, same thing
happens! Transmitter on but dead air even past 2130. Earlier airings
on same System F were OK.

Confirmed Wed May 19 at 2100+ on WBCQ 7490-, S7-S8 via VA SDR, -136 Hz
carrier offset = 7489.864. Next and last:
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
