** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Oct 21 at 1540 check, no signal of
LRA36 into Brasil SDR, so apparently no Wednesday show this week,
having specialized on Tuesday. Now for Saturday? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 13605, Oct 21 at 1655, Radio Martí is still on the
air, altho hardly audible last night on, 7, 6 or 5 MHz channels. VG,
and way above jamming now, if any; cannot really hear any nor on //
11860, 11930.

11930, Oct 21 at 1657, Radio Martí has more QRM from a second weaker
broadcaster making a SAH of about 8 Hz, than from any jamming. This
would be its only other competitor for 11930, Voice of TURKEY also in
Spanish! at 1630-1728, 500 kW due west from Emirler, intended for
España only. Furthermore, from it I hear a 5+1 timesignal at 1700, the
last pip prolonged at same pitch, but not prepared to rate it vs WWV.

Has Cuban jamming been eliminated or reduced? At 2015 check, RM is
still very strong on 11930, 11860, 9535; but a bit of jamming under is
JBA during pauses. No RM DRM noise to be heard on 7340-7345-7450. Is
that experiment over? As in a previous report, 7345 is still
registered in B-20 but as analog, like many other HFCC errors(?)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

If KVOH do make it to Caribbean, South America, these should squeeze:
17770, instead, its adjacent bears an S3-S6 signal in weak talk;
listed as Arabic hour of Voice of TURKEY; and:
17780, its other adjacent is a JBA carrier, listed as BBC Hausa hour

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Tuesday Oct 20 at 1417, LRA36 ID with
96.7 FM in passing amid history of station, starting on 6030, 41 years
ago, remember? S5-S8 into Brazil SDR. 1418 a guitar song. I can`t keep
listening now, so at 1426 I hit Record on a Kiwi for the first time,
but checked later it had timed out after 30 minutes, and where did the
recording go? How do you find it once initiated, to play back? Manuel
Mendez heard the whole special anniversary program from *1305 to 1613*
direct to Spain. Is this in addition to, or instead of, ir/regular
Wednesday broadcast? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Oct 21 at 0058, no signal from R. Progreso. Something`s
always wrong at RadioCuba, but clearing the way for PERU, q.v. (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 7365 & 7335 & 6030 & 5980, Oct 21 at 0143, JBA
signals from presumed Radio Martí, nor is there any jamming audible.
Yet RHC manages S9 on 6000 & 6145 English. Nor can I detect any OCB
DRM on 7340-7345-7350. It`s almost if the multi-decade Cuban Radio War
be over. Or, propagation? K-index climbing from 1 to 3 between 00 and
03 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9, Oct 20 at 0618, VON is on again! S9/+10 and
overmodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4764, Oct 21 at 0058, JBA carrier from presumed Radio Huanta
2000, with 4765 cleared by absent CUBA. Also JBA signal on 4775v, no
doubt the other OA, Radio Tarma. Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec also reports
RH2K on the WOR iogroup, tonight at 2337 Oct 20: ``Hello, R. Huanta
Dos Mil is on 4764 kHz now, poor and fady. Lúcio, Brasil`` (Glenn

** BRAZIL. 6165-6195, Oct 20 at 0235, RNA is overmodulated, distorted
and splattering over 30 kHz range surrounding 6180, especially QRMing
6185- MEXICO which is relatively weak and undermodulated for starters.
On a good day, however, 6180 does not QRM it. // 11780 if on is but a
JBA carrier now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Oct 20 at 0230, R. Rebelde is S9+20 but music suptorted
= suppressed modulation and also distorted. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [non]. 6105, Oct 20 at 0252, NHK Warudo Radio Japan with
`Clair de Lune` [Koreru de Runo?] on piano, very nice classical music
among their diversity in Japanese to America, where I understand
English is the primary language which they canceled years ago; VG
signal but slightly distorted, via FRANCE, and destined to prolong
into B-20 at 0200-0400. 0300 chime timesignal and news (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2056 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday October
20 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9+10 into UTwente but JBA carrier here at
0118 check: so back to normal. Broke down on Oct 17, but Richard
Langley found WRMI-1 back on air Oct 19 at 1955.

Also confirmed UT Tue Oct 20 at 0330 on WRMI 5800, S9+15 to Bonaire

** U S A. 9385, Oct 20 at 0237, again no signal from WEWN English,
while 5970 Spanish is OK. The WRMIs 9395, 9455 and 9955 are very weak
now, so maybe propagation, but 9330 WBCQ is blasting in WLCR and
splashing considerably around (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Oct 20 at 0239, WRNO is JBA rather than VG as it can
be and has been: so propagation or operation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. I`m trying out the temporary until Oct 25 KiwiSDR
that Bill Whitacre has set up in Lubec, which is on the coast in the
SE corner of Maine, a hot spot for trans-Atlantic MW DX. There is *too
much*, audio almost every 9 kHz; where are the JBA carriers I can
sweep across in only 5 minutes? Contrary to KiwiSDR boilerplate, this
one does not work on Firefox, but does work on IE. I find it already
set up at 9 kHz intervals, which can be toggled to 10; but above 1600
it switches to 5-kHz steps, strange. I`m not counting countries from
here or anywhere, so some assumptions without consequences follow, but
open to revision. LSS at Lubec today: 2135 UT, so the DX should have
been in a lot earlier. This is off-and-on for less than a sesquihour,
Oct 19 from 2103, in chrono order, reference WRTH listings, u.o.s.:

1521, at 2103 the first thing I check for is the 2-megawatt Riyadh
program via Duba, NW corner of SAUDI ARABIA, and there it is in
Arabic, S5-S7. Now closes circa 2230, so tough to get into deep North
America; when it ran all-night, at least a het against 1520 KOKC was
common. But at midwinter I even had it, I think, around local noon, as
reported at that time.

1512, at 2118, Arabic from the other SAUDI ARABIA, only one megawatt
from Jeddah, Qur`an program via Khumra site, somewhat east of Mecca.

1503, at 2119, Castilian; 2130 characteristic half-hour time signal
from SPAIN and RNE ID: Radio 5 has only two outlets, 5 and 2 kW.

1467, at 2131, ME music and Arabic, S9+5, presumably TWR Monaco via
megawatt Roumoules, FRANCE, but no language details in WRTH. A 50 kW
Sa`udi is also on 1467.

1450, at 2131, as I am tuning past 1449, can`t miss an ID for ``CFAB
1450 AM`` which is U1 1/1 kW Windsor, Nova Scotia, in the centre
between Dartmouth and Wolfville, CANADA.

1413, at 2132, Castilian: RNE Radio 5, SPAIN, has 3 outlets, 5, 10, 20
kW.

1377, at 2133, intriguing low-audible-het between weak carriers. Major
signal should be the megawatt TWR in ARMENIA at .0002. Only likely
offals are two 50 kW from IRAN on .914 and .97, mwoffsets

1314, at 2135, Castilian among the CCI: again from SPAIN, three of RNE
Radio 5 at 20, 10 and 10 kW.

1305, at 2136, good signal in Castilian: SPAIN, four x RNE Radio 5 of
20, 20, 10 and 25 kW. I often have JBA carrier(s) here direct.

531 // 549, at 2139, pop music, no doubt JIL FM, ALGERIA. 600 kW each,
common carriers over here.

1530, at 2157, I`m standing by to hear even a trace of Yankee Doodle,
from the VOA Pinheira, SAO TOME 2200 sign-off, as often recommended by
Mark Connelly, but no luck. However, a jumble of weak signals is
suddenly eclipsed by one station from *2159, ID as WVBF and on FM
99.7, AC (780) phone fits for Boston-suburban area ring as this is
from Middleborough Center, Massachusetts; and into reading anti-Trump
editorial from Bloomberg News. The trouble is, 2200 UT is FCC October
local sunset for WVBF [November: 2130] when it is supposed to drop
from 940 watts ND critical hours to FOUR WATTS NIGHT power. Day power
is 5 kW, both direxional broadly toward the northeast, i.e. Lubec.
Instead they have powered *up*! Anyhow, seems like an interesting
station, per NRC AM Log, ``Hometown Talk Radio``, address in Taunton
MA.

1530, at 2200, also has a 6-pip timesignal, very unlikely from any
North American station; probably one of two 15-kW from ROMANIA,
otherwise 3 kW from MADEIRA. In fact at 2219 recheck, Romanian
conversation, not Portuguese.

1188, at 2220, strumming at S7, ``Payam`` ID in passing, i.e. 300 kW
from Tehran, IRAN; and not the only other possibility, 400 kW Hungary

1179, at 2224, Castilian announcement, thought they mentioned ``Cadena
EFE``, but listed as Cadena SER, two in Iberia, one in Canarias. SER
could have been referring to the related? news agency EFE. Also
another language mixing, probably ROMANIA, 400 kW.

1458, at 2223, song, maybe ROMANIA, 100 kW strongest on frequency.
Both Actualitatsi program but unseem //,

If one had the time, one could employ this device for more challenging
DX, even in Lubec terms, let alone deep North America, from further
into AfroAsia. OTOH, one could do the same via numerous less temporary
SDRs in Eurafrica. OTOOH, Bill will probably activate it again
sometimes. Anyhow it`s notable how much MWDX can easily make it into
our Atlantic Northeast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 6905.80?-RCUSB, Oct 20 at 0328, LV del Tigre relay by
ROCV has considerable reduced carrier by offtuning, but hardly any
modulation; frequency seems to have varied slightly as I try to
pinpoint it. Enough carrier to register at TWR Bonaire KiwiSDR in SAM
mode with carrier offset displaying -44v Hz from 6906.00, = 6905.956
