** CUBA. 13768 approx., Oct 5 at 1423, JBA trace of ratchety spur out
of 13700, no match audible on the -68 kHz minus side circa 13632.
Surely they can do better than that; something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 26, Oct 5 at 1512 UT, minor area tropo produces
several Bad signals to my broken antenna, only one barely decoding,
from Tulsa, i.e. 6-1 KOTV-HD with CBS Price Is Right; 6-2 KQCW-SD; 6-3
NewsOn6. Ex RF-45, repack to 26 caused KTEN Ada in SE OK to evacuate
to RF17 where it`s more or less blocked by Enid K17JN-D. But it`s
still KTEN, not KTWENTYSIX OR KSEVENTEEN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 91.7, Oct 5 at 1423 UT, NPR Morning Edition via KOSU I tune

Logs
** CUBA. 4765, Oct 4 at 0030, R. Progreso is on, *just now? at
S9+20/40 but suptorted JBM, CODAR QRM sweeping also audible despite
its strength. At 0032 tuning up to 4780-4787 there is an extremely
distorted spurblob peaking about 4783, which when compared to 4765 on
another receiver makes a match with difficulty, only by modulation
peaks at first, then with traces of music mod. A new spur from
RadioCuba, where something always be wrong. No match on the minus side
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Oct 4 at 0038, the other Cuban domestic station, R.
Rebelde, is also suptorted in music at S9+20/30. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, Oct 4 at 0042, RHC may be putting its spur on 5081, but
can`t unravel it from 5085 WTWW distortion, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Oct 4 at 1415, RHC is S9 but JBM, while 15140 is S9+20
with good modulation for a change except for some hum. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Oct 4 at 0027, S9+10 pirate with
novelty/soul song ``Young Girl``. I bet it`s Wolverine Radio: yes, ID
next at 0029.6; 0047 compared to WBCQ 6159.9 equal level but more
modulation here. Recheck at 0117 it`s off. Many more logs here:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,72460.0.html
with extensive playlists, some showing the 0027 song instead as
``Young Blood``, the theme being titles with Young or Old in them,
between 0005 and 0113 closing with SSTV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2054 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
October 3 starting at 1933.7 UT on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, VG
S9+10 into nearby Warrenton MO KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed Sat Oct 3 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, good into UTwente SDR.

Also confirmed UT Sun Oct 4 at 0327 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, about 3
minutes in so started circa 0324; S9+10/20 direct. Next:
0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW

** U S A.. 5050, UT Sun Oct 4 at 0039, WWRB in its weekend-only
activity, heavy background noise like aircraft engine makes gospel
huxter mostly unreadable, but seems to be quoting Qur`an to paint it
as unpeaceful, also Jeremiah among Abrahamists (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Oct 4 at 0042, WTWW-2 with `Theater Organ Under
the Arch` underway, S9+40/50 but heavily distorted ruining it and am
not near the computer for a quick switch to $ tereo webcast. Is beyond
me why such stations keep broadcasting that way driving away
listeners, rather than just turning it off if they can`t fix it.
Excess distortion on the lower sideband difficultizes distinguishing
any RHC spur circa 5081 from 5040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6159.9v, UT Sun Oct 4 at 0047, WBCQ with rock music at
S9/+20. Better reception from musical pirate Wolverine Radio on
6950-USB, q.v. Larry Will has revived his website to include advance
schedules of Area 51/61 programming each weekend in EDT = UT -4:

UNIDENTIFIED. 363-MCW kHz, Oct 4 at 0623 UT, ND beacon SA is JBA. But
none such listed at dxinfocentre or classaxe on any frequency 362 thru
365 kHz. Possibly something miskeyed as certainly can happen? There
are 2-letter calls ending in A on 365: AA in Fargo ND, and JA in Jaxon
MS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Cursory Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search Oct 4 at
0629 finds significant signals on 684 and 837 kHz, most likely Spain
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. For the last few days, Andy Reid in Ontario has been
reporting noise at 15400, e.g. after 1200 Oct 4 QRMing BBC French.
Wolfgang Bueschel doesn`t hear it via numerous remote chex and thinx
it be something local to Andy. But:

15400 === well, now I am hearing it, at 1503 Oct 4 when little else is
propagating on 19m except Cuba. It is fading slightly, so not local.
It`s a rapid pulsing/buzzing, and there is a carrier at the center.
Does not sound like any of the local birdies I get, altho I have not
tried to turn everything off. Jammer? Not like the ones we know. I see
that R Tamazuj via France is scheduled, this hour only. Maybe ISS site
out of order? Not otherwise to be heard any programming. But that
would be on air only this hour. I suggest everyone look for it before
1600.

Monitoring 15400 via UTwente before and after 1600: there is a JBA
fading carrier with no change at 1600; cannot detect any of the noise
vs the ambient band noise above, on, and below the frequency. BBC
Ascension is scheduled to resume at 1700 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs
** COLOMBIA? 4940, Oct 3 at 0616, anonymous mystery missionary
station, S9/+10 direct with preacher in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 7345, Oct 3 at 0608, pulse jamming against nothing, but
obviously because of the additional DRM experiment from Radio Marti,
Grimesland NC, but scheduled only 17-02 UT. When that`s on, the DRM
`jamming` totally obscures any Cuban response; but this shows that the
Commies are worried that even a few dentro-Cubans could decode this
non-standard DRM and be corrupted. All RM SW transmissions on AM
remain silent after 0400 UT but more stronger jammers are also still
running against nothing on 7335 & 7365. Something`s always wrong at
the incompetent jamming command and with no thought of possible
collateral damage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5025, Oct 3 at 0615, R. Rebelde is S9+30 with suptorted
music, unlistenable. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Oct 3 at 1504, RHC, S9+10 but suptorted, just barely
modulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RWANDA [non]. 15420, Saturday October 3 at 1835, talk in African
language, S9/+10, the SSOB except for 15140 Cuba stronger S9+10/20 but
severely suptorted, so this is the BSOB - best signal on band. It`s
Radio Itakuka, weekly 1800-1859 broadcast via MADAGASCAR, and
fortunately we are just a bit further away near the same direxion from
Talata beaming 250 kW at 315 degrees. HFCC shows another on Fridays
only at 1800-1830, same parameters: is that anything real?

Radio Itahuka info from WRTH 2020 page 514: based in Washington DC,
produced by the opposition group Rwanda National Congress = RNC, on SW
since Nov 2016; http://www.blogtalkradio.com/radioitahuka and
http://tube.radioitahuka.org and with same frequency in B-season,
clandestine, language Kinyarwanda (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 344-MCW kHz, Oct 3 at 0638 UT, ND beacon JL, which is 25
watts from Joplin MO --- but I was tuned to 341-USB where it`s mixing
with local EI Enid, and OIN Oberlin KS; never noted JL before on
either frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2054 monitoring: zzzz, slept thru

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Oct 3 at 0230, anonymous mystery missionary station
is on again, good S9/+10 into Bonaire SDR during drama, carrier offset
first reads -45.1, anomaly? Then settles to more usual -5.4 to -6.0.
0255 program outro sounds like `Historia Preferida`, or was it
`Historia de la Biblia`? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2054 monitoring: not confirmed
Friday October 2 at 2200 on WRMI 9955: canceled without notice. At
2204 check a Lt. Joe Allen spelling his email address, and pushing a
religious book ``Behind Metal Bars`` with phone number. O, the System
B sked has been changed but still shows a longago date May 4, now with
`Mental Bars`, M/W/F at 2200, with Viva Miami filling at 2215. So now
we have lost our 9955 audience at both Friday evening times.

Confirmed UT Sat Oct 3 at 0130 on WRMI 7780: inaudible! here tho 7730
& 7570 are, weaker than usual; nor at UTwente, nor at Virginia, but
attaining at least a fair S5-S7 signal at Maine SDR. K index is only 2
but propagation continues really sucky. Next:

** U S A. (7490 webcast), UT Sat Oct 3 at 0001, WBCQ `AAAWWW` is
starting with ``WTO``; 0104 usual opening fiddling on the air with
studio settings, mikes. His mike is cutting out a bit. Says it`s hot
in DeLand of Fla, 75% humidity, 71 degrees outside, 81 inside Studio
9. Muses whether to resume video UStreaming during show so all can see
scantily clad beautiful Angela. Into Topic A, Virus and now inside
beloved Trump too, microbiology lesson, later complaining about
property and income taxation. I`m only semi-listening while following
more objective TV coverage of the situation.

At 0027 I tune around remotes to find out which frequencies are in
play: at Rochester, no 3265, no 5130, no 6160, not even 7490, nor even
9330 with WLCR! How about Alexandria VA, a bit further away for better
skip? Not much: no 3, 5 or 6, 7 is JBA while 9330 is a good S7 during
Portuguese aimed at Brasil. In Maine, 9330 is VG S8-S9, but 7490 is
only JBA. At Warrenton MO, nothing on 3, 5 or 6, but 7490 is good
S5-S7, 9330 good S7.

At 0042, he finally confirms date is 2nd of October, YOOL 2020 and
simulcasting on 7490 & 6160 --- I don`t think so, 6159.9 not picked up
anywhere including here. Now he says that 5130 has been ``mothballed,
not retired`` due to shortage of technicians. Again appeals for job
applicants, says pays better than most. Angela adds they also need
more buyers of airtime. 0050 he explains how it is necessary to
discharge capacitors and everything to avoid being killed even when
transmitters are ``off``. 0056 closing prayer suggests OFIH should
modify the virus just a little to make it less lethal. Yeah, that`s
the ticket! At 0114 I check reception here to be sure while not
listening to Hal Turner: zilch on 6159.9; 7490 is S9; 9330 is S9+40
