** ALBANIA [non]. 5850, Friday January 22 at 2300 checking secret R.
Tirana relay via WRMI: certainly not the same episode I heard 8 days
ago and seems current rather than pre-Xmas. As always sign-on claims
RT is heard ``only on internet`` refusing even to recognize this SW
airtime, probably donated. Program previews: news, press review,
profile. Caster is YL this time rather than OM. Signal very strong but
also high local noise level, plus accent makes it hard to follow. Does
mention date January 20, 2021 in connexion with something. 2307
so-called Press Review seems all about industrial and agricultural
produxion statistics just like in the good-ole Stalinist days; also
funding for a hydro power project with date mentioned January 27,
2021. 2313 into Profile of an opera singer born 24.1.35. His name
mentioned once at the start and I could not catch it at all; they
should at least spell names of such subjects for us ignorant
listeners. Example played: him singing the tune which is also RT`s
theme song; identity and source of which we discussed in detail last
year.

As for the Jan 14 show I heard before, Richard Lemke, St. Albert,
Alberta, replies about that: ``Dear Glenn: WRMI, 5850 kHz, 2300 UT.
After hearing the Mailbag Show on Radio Tirana on Jan 12, 13, 14, 15,
Yes, I did hearing confirming the same program with mail from FL and
how Albanians celebrate Christmas. According to information that I
heard from Sheldon Harvey, the building on site has been demolished,
is gone. I tried to send an e mail that got returned to me very fast.
Richard Lemke, January 21, 2021`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11815+, Jan 22 at 0253, checking for something else at
Pardinho SP SDR, I find splatter down past 11810, from this with music
and Brazuguese talk, S9+15/25, in SynchAM mode displaying slight
carrier offset+plus varying 10-12 Hz; and to the ear rather distorted.
I.e. must be R. Brasil Central, Goiânia, active here but rarely
detected direct (nor on 4985); perhaps with summer sporadic E boost.
Distance 718 km = 446 statute miles (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 290-MCW kHz, Jan 22 at 0726 UT, dash and QR, 100-watt ND
beacon at Regina, Saskatchewan. This area of LW is often blocked by
local noise blob peak (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13629 & 13770 approx., Jan 22 at 1452, just traces of
spurblobs from RHC 13700; something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 6115, Jan 22 at 0715, song at S9+10/20, seems too strong for
R. Nikkei, let alone Congo; quite a bit stronger than the other JOZ,
S9+10 on 6055. Fleeting thought, maybe RHC jumped off frequency? 0719
song, ``Love Was Made For Me And You``, letter by letter in English
and then announcement sounds Japanesish English; no J signals yet on
75m to compare vs hams. But must be Nikkei (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935-USB, Jan 22 at 2157, rock music past 2200, fair
signal; 2205 synthyl ID for Radio Nova and address
radionova2020@gmail.com; more music none recognized; 2221 ID; 2224
loon? calls mixed with voice ID by synthom, modulated Morse code RADIO
NOVA, ID again, 2226 repeat loons and MCW ID; 2227 occasional
bird/nature calls, about to go off? No, one more voice ID at 2228 and
SSTV beepery until 2230* seems really finished. SSTV pulsing was at
rate of about 144/minute, or 2.4 per second -- restarting each scan
line? More reports and images here, none of them sharp:

** CANADA. Re: ```274-MCW, Jan 20 at 0737 UT, dash and YPM, 25-watt
NDB from upnorth Pilangikum, Ontario, still in Hepburn list in red as
``back on``. Distance is 1741 km = 1082 stmi, or 43.28 watts per
mile.``` --- Should have read miles per watt, tnx to Richard Line in
MI for catching that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. Re: ``U S A. 286-MCW kHz, Jan 20 at 0735 UT, ND beacon
.-.-/... --- what??? .-.- is not a Roman letter but Russian ``ya``. I
listen again and again, and that`s what it sounds like, tuned to
284-USB. But this must be on 286, EKS in Ennis, Montana, heard without
a pause between dit for E and dah-dit-dah for K! Classaxe shows no
note about any such error``

Harold Frodge, MI, replies: ``No mystery --- 284 QD 0.4 The Pas MB, Le
Pas A/P; 01 Nov (DT), 06 Dec (KZ) [Has misskeyed as .-.-/...]``

Then I find this in classaxe.com about QD 284: ``Most often miskeys
with the first dash in each character replaced with a dot. Sounds like
AA S. 15Feb2020``

But not always: I have also heard correct QD. This seems about as
convoluted an explanation as mine of another station lacking a pause
between two letters. But pinning down the frequency to 284 implies
it`s QD --- and what I heard did have a dash, overlooked in my
original report, so it`s Canadian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Jan 21 at 0126, RHC English only S6-S9 direct, but:

5040, Jan 21 at 0127, RHC off or below noise level here; 0135 checking
Bonaire SDR, only a JBA carrier, could be India? While 5025 Rebelde is
good. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13634, 13569, 13769, 13838 all approx., Jan 21 at 1443,
extremely distorted spurblobs out of RHC 13700-AM. Something`s always
wrong at RHC.

13739.796, Jan 21 at 1445, the other RHC 22m frequency bears the
transmitter off-frequency from 13740.00. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA SOUTH. Re the 3+1 pips I heard at strange time of 1344 Jan 19
on 1566 kHz, ``One of the clubs has compiled a timesignal reference
but I have not found it again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)``

Richard Langley replies on the WOR iog: ``It is attached. See FEBC in
the list. You're welcome. -- Richard Langley``

And thank you. I see there are some others with 3+1, altho FEBC
appears to be the only one that fits on 1566; e.g. there are no NHKs
at all on 1566 per WRTH. I`m really quite sure that`s it, but curious
if others have noticed the pips at odd times like transmission changes
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2069 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday January
20 at 2100 ono WRMI 7780, S7-S9 to UTwente SDR.

Also confirmed Wed Jan 20 from 2200:20 on WBCQ 7490.189v, S8-S9
direct. Briefly some 2-way SSB QRM around 2102.

Missed checking Wed Jan 20 at 2300 on WRMI 9955; anyone hear it?

Confirmed UT Thu Jan 21 at 0130 on WRMI 5010, S9/+10 to Bonaire SDR.
JBA carrier here vs S9+10 high noise level.

New WOR 2070 should be ready by early UT Jan 22 for first airings
Friday at 0130 on WRMIs 5850, 7780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
