** ANTARCTICA [and non]. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Oct 7, listening to
Argentine remote from 1755, nothing yet from LRA36; let it play as
noise under Handel`s oratorio Jephtha on WFMT/KUCO. Just at
intermission, 1815, I realize it`s on, maybe a bit earlier. Later
switch to Brasil SDR where at 1835 it`s S7/S8 during song. 1950 a
piece from someone in Sucre, Bolivia about that city, founded in
1538y. 2100 & 2216 still going with songs. Off during song without
despedida circa 2310*, nothing but splash from 15480 China at 2312.

Earlier, a report on the WOR iog from: ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain
--- Current schedule, according to a WhatsApp received from the
station:
Saturdays: 1800-2300, program “Uniendo Voces” and “Jóvenes de la
Antártida”. All other days of the week: 1500-1700, program “Ecos de la
Antártida”. Today, Saturday, October 7, they have bad weather at Base
Esperanza. They hope to be able to go on air and that the weather does
not affect the transmission`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT [non]. 9440.001, Oct 7 at 2218, news in English with
correspondent reports, too good to be Cairo, and not on 9439.995 into
UTwente. Of course, it`s BBCWS relay this hour only via USAGM Tinang,
Philippines 250 kW at 200 degrees toward Indonesia. I won`t accuse
this of being a violation of Separation Of Church And State, altho
UKQOGBANI is theoretically a theocracy --- just ask King Charles III.
Is he a.k.a. CIIIR, like his mom, EIIR? Cairo had been reported
recently by Alan Holder, Isle of Wight, to have improved modulation,
but not on air now, tho who knows, could have initiated English at
2115. Somethings amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE [and non]. 13735, October 7 at 1502, JBA signal direct. EiBi
has nothing but MiniTransAt, as this is one of four available
frequencies during the bakery race. At 1516 I tune at UTwente, where
it`s no longer on 6100, just a weak presumed CRI, but S7/S8 on 13735,
playing medley of classic rock hits, only the signature title tunes,
like `Hey Jude`. The weather and race standings info must have been
quite brief today. 1526, YL with quick words, I think ``Have a nice
day``, a bit of James Bond theme music, 1527 dead air to 1530*. Map at
https://minitransat.fr/ shows most have arrived at La Palma, Canary
Islands, completing first leg. Then onward to Guadeloupe. I wonder if
leaders keep leading or they all re-depart La Palma at once. Later on
may ascend further to 15300, not there yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ISRAEL [and non]. [WOR] ``i24 news from Israel --- Altho there is
plenty of coverage of the Israel/Gaza war on US news channels, may I
point out a channel direct from Israel, i24. I have found it to be

recognized as rerun of last week, so dispensed with. BTW, just before
this, the live? FKB gospel huxter show broadcasts a ``one minute!``
warning to him to wrap it up, from WBCQ op. But why does that go on

** CANADA. Responses to my obs of ``no report received`` from Trenton
Military:

In the UDXF iog: ``Michael Scheel, Oct 5 #111948, After seeing that
Glenn Hauser reporting via his log online that he hadn't heard Trenton
for a while. I tried it just now (2032z) and hearing it weak but
readable via a SDR in the Midwest. The broadcast consisted of a roll
call of several terminals with "no report received".``

And Oct 5-6 on the WOR iog: ``Tuned into Trenton Military on 6754 kHz
starting at 0031 UTC (S9+20 signal into central NC) and heard several
actual weather reports for Shannon, Prestwick (sp?), and Keflavik,
however after that, everything else was "no report received" for all
other locations (Shearwater, Greenwood, Gander, Halifax, Trenton,
Bagotville, Ottawa, Toronto, Calgary, Cold Lake, Winnipeg, Edmonton,
Abbotsford, Comox, Victoria, Vancouver). As usual the station clock
reports the current Eastern Daylight Time as Zulu time.

After a 0059 UTC sign off, it started up again around 0112 with many
"no report received" observations until 0130 when there were three
additional reports that were not "no report received" for Zagreb,
Split, and Thule. They certainly have a nice antenna farm -

close to weak AM signal on 17690, but DRM cuts off at 1457*. That
uncovers an AM on 17685 in French vs CCI QRM? Or voice-over something
in background. But this also goes off at 1458*, uncovering a JBA

Ron Trotto was first reporting this as unID into IL on 6115. That`s

not very large size, for speed, yet able to grab plenty of wind.
What`s a yacht, and what`s nacht? It seems American usage is quite
different from elsewhere. Huge luxury vessels also called yachts.

** CHINA [and non]. 11895, Oct 4 at 0640, S1/S3 direct, mixture of two
signals with beat, so this time it`s CNR1 jamming plus RFA Mandarin
via SAIPAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11860, Oct 4 at 1457, R. Martí with whine QRM, more
of a problem here than Cuban noise jamming, i.e. the defective Sa`udi
transmitter of Republic of Yemen Radio; no doubt assisting the Cuban
jammers in the target area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11510, Oct 4 at 1454, JBA music, presumably
current frequency for Recep`s Turkiyeish jamming and/or Dengê Gel, via
Uzbekistan? On interior longwire due to storming (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Oct 4 at 2208 after news, token English from SNR,
feature interview about an exhibition on ``Feminine Power in Art and
Belief``. VG direct, others 17715, 15520, 11670 hardly usable (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Oct 4 at 2202 & 2230 chex, NO signal direct from
VOT English; something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2210 monitoring: NOT confirmed,
Tuesday October 3 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, rather 2-month-old #2202 from
early August! WRMI`s new server setup began Oct 2, and was supposedly
going to continue airing latest 2210. The previous airing at 0030 Oct
3 was also #2202 as noted by Richard Lemke.

``9395 kHz, an Old edition of WOR is played, S9 signal, static QRN,
0032, 0034, 0045 (45443), 0059, October 3 UTC 2023 [Tue]

9395, an Old edition of WOR is played, weak heard voice beginning,
2339, 2340, 2359 (45343-2) 2359, October 3 [Tue] (Lemke, Richard
-AB)``

Beginning UT Oct 4, I have made sure the remaining airtimes are really
latest 2210.

Confirmed 2210, Wednesday October 4 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -71 Hz into
Maryland SDR, S9+5/12. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1400 UT Thursday WRMI 9955 to SSE [NEW; also webcast, phonecast;

** U S A. 5085, Oct 4 at 0000, no signal yet from WTWW, supposed to
reactivate now; but *0010 cuts on JIP PPP SFA. For some reason,
Maryland SDR will not synch on it, But NH SDR displays frequency
within 0.5 Hz. Tuning direct it`s VG and also has reactivated JBA spur
carriers approx. plus/minus 12.9 kHz = 5072.1 & 5097.9, negligible but
utenoise circa 5098 might have a complaint about it. George McClintock
tells me there were more startup problems with program feed, and
Bishop Bob Biermann would not start yet tonight. Indeed, WTWW ID at
0100* and off.

Similar report: ``Hi Glenn! I sat on 5085 kHz on Oct 4 at 0000 UTC
waiting for WTWW to sign on. Not hearing anything, I thought once
again the station was having some issue getting on the air, so I tuned
out at 0005. I tuned back in at 0013 and the Pastor Pete Peters Show
was already in progress. At 0100, a male announcer read a five-second
ID “This is WTWW, Lebanon, Tennessee, USA”, which was followed by ten
seconds of guitar picking, perhaps an intro into a new program, before
the signal abruptly ended. I tuned out at 0102. Steve Howe, Saint
Albans, Vermont``

24 hours later, UT Oct 5 at 0000, standing by 5085 again for WTWW, no
signal yet; still nothing by 0010 as I wrap up this report (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Oct 4 at 0627, S9+20 of dead air again from WRNO,
maybe will revive later with Mandarin as has been reported. One
wonders what kind of audience they expect on 20 degree beam, still
available 22-16, and never-used 15590 at 16-22 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. Oct 4 at 1820 UT, I`m QRX for the much publicized nationwide
emergency alert test: tuned to 91.7 KOSU, 740 KRMG, 12160 WWCR. First
heard on 91.7 saying it runs from 2:20 to 2:40 pm Eastern; a few sex
later on 740; 550 KFRM slow on uptake if ever; not heard interrupting
a SW station -- who cares about that?! However, it was over in much
less than a minute, stations resuming programming, as I hurriedly
scanned some other AM stations. As for what happened on cell phones, I
have no idea. Big deal? TV also on some cable channel, unknown as
can`t monitor everything at once. However, Optimum had warned us
yesterday this was coming and might have to reset cable tuners. There
was no real-time msg about this in my email inboxes, nor spam folders
-- who cares? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
