** CANADA. Not a single lightning strike anywhere in USA or Canada
showing at Blitzortung, Nov 17 at 0645 UT, so should be a great
low-noise night for beacon DX -- other than from local sources. So
bandscanning away:

376-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0658 UT, dash and YAG is JBA, 40 watts from
Fort Frances, Ontario.

366-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0701 UT, dash and YMW, 500 watts from Maniwaki,
Quebec.

355-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0703 UT, dash and YWP, 200 watts from Webequie,
how do you pronounce that?, Quebec, ``To Be Decommissioned
2021-02-25``.

351-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0705 UT, dash and YKQ, 500 watts from Fort
Rupert - Waskaganish, Quebec; I`m tuned to 350-USB, hearing this at
same time as next one, and nothing from RG 350 at WRWA OKC.

350-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0705 UT, dash and NY, 400 watts from eNderbY,
British Columbia, mixing with YKQ-351 at different pitches but nothing
from RG at WRWA OKC, normally owning 350. Beacons from BC are very
rare here. Enderby is between Armstrong and Grindrod, just north of
Vernon and Kelowna, east of Kamloops; from Enid, 2313 km = 1437
statute miles. Hurry up: ``To Be Decommissioned 2021-02-25``

344-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0711 UT, dash and YC, 100 watts from Calgary,
Alberta, yet another ``To Be Decommissioned 2021-02-25``

335-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0713 UT, dash and YLD, 1000 watts from
Chapleau, Ontario.

276-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0717 UT, dash and YEL, 200 watts from Elliott
Lake, Ontario. I did skip past even others more often logged (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer search, Nov 17 from 1343: none WOOB in the 13s,
12s, until at 1350 JBA on 11170, 11150, 11120, 10160; 9 MHz not
checked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6145, Nov 17 at 0649, RHC English still here, for the last
time? S9+20 and undermodulated. Supposedly to be replaced by 9700 from
this date, so maybe by UT Nov 18. Reactivated 6060 is not yet on
either, and something weak not // on 9700. Something`s always wrong at
RHC. Next to check: whether the ``Africa`` service in English really
resume at 22-23 on 11880 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Nov 17 at 1546, RHC is S7-S9 but JBM; while 15140 is
S9+10 with sufficient modulation level but somewhat distorted, just as
music show `Sonido Cubano` is ending; whew. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-AM, Nov 16 at 2257 algo JBA, unID pirate.
Latest log in HFUnderground was almost 2 hours earlier, ``Pathetic
President Radio``, so by now could be something else.
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74396.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. We are in marginal level-1 tropo enhancement Nov 17 at 15
UT per Hepburn map, so I hopefully bandscan for UHF/VHF DTVDX into my
broken antenna on its bent mast: something Bad on RF 35, and RF 15 OKC
is not decoding, implying DX QRM. W9WI.com is still out of order, FCC
info not grabbing, displaying nothing but Canada on ch 35; but by
state one can search OK for . Besides several low-power
translators not very close, two most likelies are:

K35MV-D, Concho near OKC, 15 kW I have seen before, the first-nations
station; and KUOK Woodward, 8 kW Univision. It seems that the other
resource, rabbitears.com cannot display stations in channel order! In
case I could be getting Kansas or something. Primary ordering is by
market size, OKC being #50 but somehow including other towns like
Woodward. Tulsa, OTOH, #63 does not lead to any subcities with
sublistings (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PUERTO RICO. 391-MCW kHz, Nov 17 at 0605 UT, ND beacon DDP, which
is 1000 watts from San Juan - Dorado. Not always audible, but when it
is, a good sign of enhanced almost-LW propagation, my most distant
`regular` beacon.

[non] Which reminds me, in bandscans have not heard Cayman Islands in
a long time, last logged Feb 23, so off the air? On 415 kHz, CBC
Cayman Brac with 600 watts still listed at dxinfocentre.com (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Nov 16 at 2300, REE opening English since it`s Monday,
Alison Hughes about the mysterious assassination of poet Federico
Garcia Lorca at beginning of the Spanish Civil War in 1936 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Nov 16 at 2256, VOT IS and English IDs, S9+10, so
back in whack after missing this emission yesterday. Something`s not
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2060 monitoring: From 1850 UT Mon
Nov 16 I`m on 7290 via UTwente, conveniently listening elsewhere in
the house via my RF feeder set to 92.1 MHz; big splash from adjacents
at first, *1858.2 IRRS carrier on and quiet. The trouble is, my
too-smart feeder turns itself off thinking there is nothing to feed,
before IRRS modulates s/on or WOR can be heard, and before I can get
back to bypass it. But by 1909 check, WOR is OK in progress.

Missed checking UT Tue Nov 17 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, and even the new
sked time of UT Tue Nov 17 at 0200 on WRMI 9955; did anyone hear
them?

Confirmed UT Tue Nov 17 at 0330 on WRMI 5800, VG into Bonaire SDR.
Next:
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2300 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Nov 16 at 2146, WRMI is on with TOMBS, which it had
been doing all-day while 9395 was down, but supposedly now back in a
break until 2200, filled only on webcast by music. // 15770 also
TOMBS, while 9395 // 5800 with SMTV, 9455 with YWS or BB`s other
radical political show (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15555-USB, Nov 17 at 1545, gospel huxter at S5, so WJHR
Milton FL is back! Had been missing since hurricane hit the Panhandle,
and I`ve been alert for it in daily bandscans across here; altho
possibly was on earlier but just not propagating.

First noted missing Sept 18 following Hurricane Sally, ``The SWBC
station, or rather glorified ham rig, most likely to have been blown
away by Hurricane Sally, Milton FL near Pensacola. Seldom audible
anyway. It will be of note if anyone definitely hear it again``

to which Richard Langley replied Sept 26: ``WJHR typically comes in
well here in NB. Nothing heard this afternoon (26 September) when
checked at 1724 UT, not even a weak carrier. Power doesn't appear to
be out at the 5920 Oak Manor Drive, Milton, residence according to
Gulf Power, so perhaps the antenna tower is down or there is other
station damage. Will continue to periodically check 15555 kHz --
Richard Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12302-USB, Nov 17 at 1345, 2-way in Spanish as I am not
finding any CNR1 jammers around here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10925-USB, Nov 17 at 1352, 2-way in unID language,

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Nov 16 at 0235, anonymous mystery missionary
station, gospel huxter with dramatizations, S9/+10. In the NASWA
Flashsheet, editor Mark Taylor in WI agrees it`s still anonymous:

``4940, 2359, 11/12-13/20. Hymn through ToH, 1 beep, man announcer
with talk about faith then woman with news or actualities. No ID or
program name noted at ToH`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [non]. 6125, Sun Nov 15 at 2324, no signal from R. Martí ---
that`s because per HFCC it`s scheduled only M-F 2300-0400 Tue-Sat.
Instead there is something in Chinese, i.e. CNR from SZG site (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9535, Nov 16 at 0656, JBA talk not // RHC English
on 6 MHz frequencies, altho this RHC Spanish frequency has been known
to run overtime in English. Instead it must be R. Ndarason
International about to switch sites from Woofferton to Ascension.

9535, Nov 16 at 1555 however, now it is RHC, S9 but undermodulated.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Nov 16 at 1524, RHC music is S9 but just barely
modulated, while 15140 is S9 and merely undermodulated. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13566 & 13836 approx., Nov 16 at 1503, traces of spurblob
second-order mixing products with F# tone, and much stronger
first-orders about 13633 & 13768, i.e. about 67-68 kHz displacements
and multiples, out of RHC 13700 which is undermodulated S7-S9.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY [non]. 9570, Nov 16 at 0657, African talk and music at
S6-S9 until chopoff at 0659*. It`s DW in Hausa from 0630 via FRANCE
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NICARAGUA. 8989-USB, Sun Nov 15 at 2325, fisher-preacher VP at S5,
with applause? mixed with band noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6934.9-AM, Nov 15 at 2319, unID JBA carrier
typically piratical; numerous reported previously in HFUnderground but
none currently (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA [and non]. 7220, Nov 15 at 2318, RRI English now more
audible under Vietnamese talk & music bed, totalling S9+30.
Theoretically, per HFCC, RRI should dominate, 300 kW at 300 degrees
from Galbeni altho not intended beyond UK, while CRI Vietnamese is 500
kW, 190 degrees from Xi`an toward Vietnam.

9415, Nov 15 at 2327, then I find CRI Vietnamese loud and clearer
here, S9+35, which is 500 kW southward from Beijing site (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SLOVENIA. 18118-USB, Nov 16 at 1521, S57DX calling CQ 17, fonetix
alternating Sierra with Sugar for first letter, then working a K2.
This ham continues to be the dominant Eurosig on 18 MHz (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Sun Nov 15 at 2323, no signal from VOT English to
North America; something`s always erroneous at Emirler; nor yet any
signal from Urumqi 5960-, East Turkistan, land of ChiCom brainwashing
Uyghurs, nominally starting at *2330 per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 392-MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0712 UT, mixture of two 25-watt ND
beacons at different pitches: FMZ, which is from Fairmont - Beklof,
Nebraska [spelt backwards: Aksarben, Folkeb]; and ML, from Monroe,
Louisiana.

385-MCW kHz, Nov 16 at 0714 UT, ND beacon HO, which is 200 watts from
Hot Springs, Arkansas. I was tuned to 383-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2060 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday November 16 on WRMI 7730, VG here.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, poor S7-S8 here but
good S9+5 at UTwente Holland SDR where it`s aimed.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, S9+15 at UTw; and
also S9+15 on 5800 into TWR Bonaire SDR where it`s aimed. Also almost
synchro on WRN webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 from 0402 on Area 51 webcast, while WBCQ
6159.9 is JBA direct; inaudible at closer SDRs in VA and NY, but good
S9+15 into Warrenton MO SDR, which must be at ideal skip distance from
Maine.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 16 at 0430 on WRMI 9955, good S8 into
Bonaire SDR where it`s aimed, no jamming audible. Next:

1900vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy

** U S A. 5950, Nov 15 at 2321, WRMI-5 is back on, presumed the weak
S6-S9 in unknown English program, after several days absent since Nov
11. Still no mention of 5950 going & coming on disgraced FB of WRMI.

This might have been helpful for hearing Ethiopia, but Manuel Méndez,
Spain reports Nov 16: ``5950, Voice of Tigray Revolution, Addis Ababa,
seems to be out of air for more than a week`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 3215, Nov 16 at 0020, gospel huxter, so WWRB has belatedly
made its B-season QSY from 5050 for weekend-only emissions. By 0316
recheck has flipped to 3185, S9+20 more of same, not TOMBS. Probably
from 0200 when WWCR-1 has dibs on 3215. It was not clear whether WWRB
would use 3185 or 3195 this season, both registered. 3185 was once
exclusively for Brother HyStairical, but now long gone as a WWRB
client (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 5980, Nov 16 at 0647, mixture of PMS from 5935 and
BS from 5890, audible under Cuban jamming, i.e. leapfrog mixing
product of the two WWCRs landing here another 45 kHz beyond, where the
Cubans cannot be too careful, lacking a Radio Martí to jam, just in
case wacky yanqui religionists in English make inroads into Cuban SWLs
who would not be listening to them in the clear on the fundamentals.
Something`s always excessive at the Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 6906v-RCUSB, Nov 16 at 0235, still no signal from ROCV
into Bonaire SDR. Manuel Méndez, Spain, explains Nov 16: ``6906, R. O.
C. V., El Tigre, seems to be out of the air for at least two days. I
have contacted the station staff and they confirm that they are off de
air due to a transmitter power failure`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Nov 16 from 0701,
this time tuning down in LSB from +1 kHz above 9-kHz channels: 1215,
1107, 1089, 909, 882(2), 855(2), 837, 774(2), 756, 747, 693, 684, 621,
612, 558.

At 0709 on 846, a fast beat between two, one of which would assumedly
be TP from Kiritimati, but what else? Best W Europe can do at this
late hour is 3 kW from Ireland, R. North; maybe a high-power E Asian
already at this early hour like 250 kW Taiwan? or 2 kW from NZ barely
around summer sunset? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
