0630UTC on Fri May 7th. (1030pm Thu. May 6th local time, about an hour, 90
minutes before local sunset)

Started hearing some halfway decent fade ups with Clube Do Para's telltale
audio.. sounds like heavily compressed/processed and got some speech that
would be easily understandable by a native speaker.

SINPO was 34242(3) with a Tecsun PL880, DXE PreAmp and 2 tunable
Doxytronics Loops

GLENN HAUSER`S WEEKLY LOG ROUNDUPS

Published by early UT Thursday each week, the original complete logs
in one merged alfabetical file:
http://worldofradio.com/Hauserlogs.html
The April 30-May 5 edition:
https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2021_0429_0505.txt

** CUBA. 6087-6113, May 6 at 0610, RHC English splashing out over ~26
kHz range from 6100 which is S9+20/30. 6165 at S9+10/20 is almost as
bad, 6153-6177 ~24 kHz. 5040 & 6000 are off, 6060 is OK. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ERITREA [non]. About Bayto Yaikl mentioning PBS Frontline: it`s
this week`s new edition, `Escaping Eritrea`, which was not yet on PBS
website when I checked.

It seems they do not utter the word ``Bayto`` on the air, as Ivo
Ivanov reports: ``FRANCE Reception of Dimtse (Bayto) Yiakl, USA at new
time and on new frequency on May 5:
1630-1700 on 11760 ISS 250 kW / 125 deg to EaAf Tigrinya Wed/Sat, very
good via SDR Tambov, RUS

http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2021/05/dimtse-bayto-yiakl-usa-at-new-time-and.html
Announced on the first video at 00.47 sec. Azi Dimtse Yiakl America
and then time and frequency`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, May 6 at 0627, JBA carrier from presumed R.
Kiribati; none others noted, not even 1098 Marshalls (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 11710, May 6 at 0612, no sign of stilted
French from VOK like heard on May 3, so maybe back on correct
frequencies. The weak 11680 signal both then and now could be VOHA
Zambia as well as P`yongyang. At 1409 May 6, however, 11710 VOK with
scheduled stilted French is S9-S7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2084 monitoring: Richard Lemke,
Alberta, confirms Wed May 5 at 1030 on WRMI 5850; as well as many
other airings. I confirm final repeat on WRMI: UT Thu May 6 at 0130 on
5010, S9/+10 into Bonaire SDR.

A NEW time starts this week on WRMI, UT Saturday 0130 on 9395; that`s
8:30 pm CDT Friday. WRMI-6 is on 355 degree antenna, NNW. New WOR 2085
should be ready by early UT Friday May 7 for first broadcasts on WRMIs
5850 & 7780, expected not to be pre-empted this week (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7730, May 6 at 0615, WRMI is back on after missing two
overnights; TOMBS music but modulation keeps cutting off and on. Same
problem on 5850 & 5950, but 5890 WWCR intact. 5850 unusually has a SAH
as if two transmitters be competing. Also, Jeff White says 7570 will
be back on next week, mostly Brother Stair (Glenn Hauser, OK)

** U S A. Re NPR at 50: Rodney Johnson, Plymouth, replies on WOR iog:
``Greetings From Minnesota! I heard the NPR treatment of the event via
podcast. It was well worth the almost hour in length.

https://www.npr.org/2021/04/30/991424624/fifty-and-forward-an-anniversary-celebration-of-npr
73s http://swldx.tumblr.com --Rodney`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, May 6 at 0611, NO signal from R. Vanuatu X 3.
Conditions seem normal with 11725 NZ, and 11895 presumed RFA Saipan
the other significant 25mb signals. Some editors throw out my non-logs
like this as if they were not newsworthy! China not audible either on
11835 -- Ron Howard indicates it too is irregular (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9385, May 6 at 1412, open carrier S9+10/S9; likely WEWN
night frequency not turned off; testing? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11523-CW, May 6 at 1331, long JBA automated CW message,
eventually restarting with VVVs, but too weak to detect any DE ID. Not
in EiBi; UDXF iog has numerous recent 11523 logs without specific ID,
some as QSX sent on other frequencies by Russian Navy, or earlier as
ALE by British Army from Muscat, Oman (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

JRX Current Logs: Wed, May 5, 2021Receiver (s): Sony ICF-SW100Antenna (s): LongwireAll times and dates in UTC-GMT

CHINA** 11740. Wed, May 5, 2021. 2244-2254, CNR2-China Business Radio, Lingshi-CHN, in Chinese. Woman and man announcers talk in fast chinese, almost interval between their speechs. Very good reception.

CUBA** 15230. Wed, May 5, 2021. 2232-2242, Radio Habana Cuba, Quivicán-CUB, in Portuguese. Woman announcer says about cuban cultural theme; 2234 Man talks news (Servicio Informativo RHC) about cuban economy and other themes, including Covid-19 vaccine autonomy. Fair to good reception.

FRANCE** 5930. Wed, May 5, 2021. 2218-2230, Radio Algérienne, Issoudun-F, in Arabic. Holy Qur´an chant this month of Ramadan (Till May 11, 2021). Fair reception.

SPAIN** 17855. Wed, May 5, 2021. 2036-2100, Radio Exterior de España, Noblejas-E, in Spanish. Mainly man announcer and collaborators, including a woman announcer, present, live, a football transmission game: Chelsea 2 x 0 Real Madrid. Good reception.

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Wed May 5 at 1513, LRA36 is only S2-S3
into Brasília #2 KiwiSDR, signature ``Antártida`` song at tune-in,
LRA36 ID, then mostly music past 1527; still on at 1555 but off before
1700 when I check again after Eritrea [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BOTSWANA. 17530, May 5 at 1533, pop song in English, S9+10/20 into
UTwente. It`s VOA relay this hour only; 1535 DJ urges COVID measures
such as masking, back to more song, Bieber, on `Border Crossings`,
which hardly presents anything exotic as the name might imply. Aoki
shows this transmission is *jammed lest any oppressed ESL Chinese pick
it up, but no jamming audible now. So strong I think I was hearing
trace of its music bleeding/crossmodding onto 17545, see ERITREA
[non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 15700, May 5 at 1502 & 1543 chex, CRI Plus English
relay via CUBA is AWOL for at least second day: canceled, or another
outage? Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, May 5 at 0629, RHC English has the humbuzz on here
again ex-6100, which is off along with 6000; while 6165 remains on in
the clear. You never know what combo of 5 possible channels will be
running after 0600. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ERITREA [non]. 17544.90910v, another Wednesday, May 5 at 1527 so
I`m listening for Bayto Yaikl, the Wed & Sat only clandestine brokered
by RMI via Issoudun, FRANCE. Once again there is a JBA signal via
UTwente, S6 = noise level on adjacent channel, but enough for its
Synch to look onto it precisely as above. No audio from it, but traces
of music from somewhere which at 1533 I decide is bleed/crossmod from
the VOA bigsig on 17530, with Border Crossings via BOTSWANA, q.v.

17545v itself is far too weak to identify directly, but was the always
off-frequency B.Y. in the B-season. WRMI skedgrid at the very bottom
still shows 17545, not updated for A-season. I`m alert for when it go
off, which happens at 1558:49* including any internet delay; can ISS
still be running that transmission with nothing in it??

Latest HFCC of May 4 still shows:
17545 1530 1600 48 ISS 250 120 0 227 1234567 280321 301021 D 17400 Mul
F RMI TDF 13156 BYUSA

But also:
11760 1630 1700 48 ISS 250 125 0 216 36 280321 301021 D 8500 Mul F RMI
TDF 14044 NEW

Ivo Ivanov has been reporting that 11760 an hour later on Wed & Sat is
replacement for 17545, even tho 11760 entry does not include ``BYUSA``
and the 17545 was never 7 days a week.

11760.000 or 11759.999, says UTwente Synch: Rather than LRA36, after
1630 May 5 I keep listening to 11760, S5-S7 into UTwente, which
certainly seems like Bayto Yaikl, but I *never* can hear those words
mentioned. Opening has horrible self-imposed echo but only briefly.
Presumably in Tigrinya, but occasional English terms I can copy: kHz,
Amerika, World Press Freedom Day, Amnesty International, PBS
Frontline, investigative reporting. Continues all-talk with Frontline
etc. mentioned again at 1646. 1647 finally a bit of Horn-of-Africa
music; 1655 mentions Hitler, Hirohito; 1656 HOA music; 1656.5 closing
announcement in *Arabic* including meter-band, kHz, and off at 1659*
At PBS website I cannot find a Frontline episode about Eritrea (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9+, May 5 at 0622, VON with big OC, then JBM chant
and drumusic. Tuned by at 0619, it was NOT on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 35, May 5 at 1514 UT, a little tropo enhancement
produces one BAD signal normally invisible, on this channel only;
could be full power in Wichita KS, low power in Woodward or Concho OK.
Hepburn tropo map points toward the latter, the native station near
OKC I`ve seen before, K35MV-D, 15 kW. I continue to wonder about its
penetration into the OKC market; must it be carried on any cable
channel? Soon fades out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7730, May 5 at 0618, another TOMBS
transmission via WRMI bites the dust. Had been the last of three 7 MHz
frequencies to retain the dead gasbag overnight; but still shows on
the WRMI skedgrid as Overcomer 01-08, so absence could be temporary.
Still rampant on 5850 & 5950 --- and 5890 WWCR --- with JBA signals on
9395 & 9455, the lower still sked with him too. WRMI skeds are never
uptodate, still dated April 2, and still showing 7570 & 7780 overnight
TOMBS which were really dropped weeks ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2084 monitoring; can anyone confirm the Wed
May 5 at 1030 on WRMI 5850? Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2200 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html

Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support:
thanks this week to Ron Howard, Monterey, California, in memory of
Noel Green, for a check to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702,
and Ron says, ``Appreciate all the wonderful things you do for our
hobby!``

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. NPR Turns 50 --- 8 minutes from CBS Sunday Morning May 2
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/npr-turns-50/

Rest of 63+ minute commercial-free program also highly recommended:
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/sunday-morning-full-episode-5-2-2021/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU [and non]. 11835, Wed May 5 at 0629, R. Vanuatu in music
with a low-audible-heterodyne, LAH, i.e. the A-21 season CCI expected
from CNR2, Xianyang 59 site, China, so one or both of them must be
slightly off-frequency. I have not yet tried to measure RV`s 3rd
harmonic when it`s solo. On contrary, Aoki/NDXC shows CNR2 is in a
siesta break after 0600 on Day 4 only = Wednesday = today; shouldn`t
that be Day 3 = Tuesday? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13530, May 5 at 1457 open carrier over CODAR, S9 with
some fades to S6, off by 1501 recheck. Strong and steady enough to be
intracontinental, but way outside a broadcast band, maybe ute? Or
extracontinental CNR1 *jammer since 13530 is a Sound of Hope frequency
until 1550 per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
