** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, Sat Sept 26 at 1526, LRA36 is underway
with chat mostly by two YLs, S6-S8 at Brasil SDR, mentioning LRA-4 in
Santa Fe - I thought they said, but that`s in Salta on 690. In WRTH
you have to hunt thru the entire MW frequency list since the LRAs are
mixed in with the non-governmentals. Fortunately this one is in
lowband. Anyhow, altho Antarctica occasionally mentioned, it`s all
about Argentina instead. Abruptly interrupted by local neighborhood
power failure at 1542 until 1707. By 1735 they are still gabbing, 1803
a song. 1902 the Brazilians are busy, a trace of music at Buenos Aires
and Santiago. Latest info about this broadcast per Manuel Mendez was
15-20 in Spanish, preceded and followed by a semihour in German, no
English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALI. 5995, Sept 26 at 0619, no signal from RTM at a time it is
normally heard; could be due to K index of 5 as WWV reported:

``Solar-terrestrial indices for 25 September follow.
Solar flux 73 and estimated planetary A-index 20.
The estimated planetary K-index at 0600 UTC on 26 September was 5.
Space weather for the past 24 hours has been minor.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G1 level occurred.``

6005, BBC Ascension, however is still audible weakly as usual (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re: Oversight of the United States Agency for Global Media

Glenn: Here is a link to the hearing:

We asked for it - O, o, it`s 3 hours and 9 minutes. Now even the
HOROTUS is using YouTube. Cue in 4:40 when Chairman Engel explains
what is going on, next 5 minutes, how Pack weaseled out of his
commitment to testify ... (Glenn) viz.:

Saturday Sept 26 at 0130 on WRMI 7780 only, S9/+15 at Maine SDR, noisy
S8-S9 at UTwente. Follows 0129.5 ID by Ian McFarland, and then Bob
Zanotti tries to too, but is chopped off after only his name. I think
this happens every week to this broadcast, programmed as such into
automation; not my doing! 0140 check here, 7780 is S9+10 but
undermodulated.

** U S A. 5072.0 & 5098.0 approx., Sept 26 at 0147, the very weak spur
carrier parasites to 5085 WTWW-2 are back after having been inaudible
the last time I checked, different transmitter? While 5085 is now
S9+30/40. Still on and there at 0623 when I measure them exactly:
5071.990 and 5098.013 which imply the fundamental be at 5085.0015 or
so but not measured directly. The spurs used to be close to 12.9 kHz
plus and minus rather than 13.0 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4840, Sept 26 at 0627, WWCR-3 not in dead air for a change,
as it had been the last few nights after 0600; but unID gospel huxter
other than TOMBS who is still on 3215 & 5890. Last few days WWCR`s pdf
program guide has refused to load below WWCR-1. Now I get the xls
version which shows at 0600 on Saturday it`s supposed to be `Worldwide
Country Radio`. Despite this note on the homepage: ``ALL WWCR streams
and transmitters are back on schedule! We appreciate our patient and
loyal listeners.`` Really? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17775-, Sat Sept 26 at 1500, JJBBA carrier from KVOH when
`Wavescan` is supposed to be getting its first airing of the week
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Big tropo opening east of here across Arkansas per maps tho
as usual we are on the edge. Enough to knock out some OKC DTV signals
by DX QRM, and show a few Bad signals on open channels but none
decoding, Sept 26 circa 1515 UT. Local power failure at 1542 so I
switch to portable FM on the DX-398. Tulsans are in solid.

99.1 at 1619, ad for Honda of Russellville, i.e.. Arkansas, and more
ads for Fort Smith, ``KMAG 99.1, number one for New Country``, i.e.
Fort Smith, still atop Mount MAGazine? --- hey that would be a great
place to exile Drumpf. 600 meters HAAT which isn`t that much but more
than most in these lowlands.

102.1, Sept 26 at 1623, ``102-1, The Bull, #1 FM New Country,``
Wichita. Really, KZSN, 100/100 kW from Hutchinson KS. Right adjacent,
101.9 KTST OKC, ``The Twister`` also brands itself ``#1 New Country``.
Must be a thing.

90.1, Sept 26 at 1627 UT, both KUCO OK and KHCC KS are overcome by
``Ministry 8 days of hope`` --- that matches the AFR schedule, so KBNV
Fayetteville AR, 7.1/16.0 H/V kW.

92.1, Sept 26 at 1629, also earlier, stupid sports talk, which fits
for another Fayetteville AR, KQSM-FM, 7.6/7.6 kW. Not bad overcoming
the Okies such as KTBT Broken Arrow in the way, not the source of some
C&W CCI (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 26 at 0628:
621, 684, 711, 747, 837, 936, 1188. 1188 is interesting, normally with
nothing. Per WRTH nothing but superpowers in Hungary and Iran; and
Down Under, no more than 2 kW from Australia. No TP carrier from 846,
however. Otherwise correlate with lower latitude NW Africa and Spain
only, with K index of 5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12302-USB, Sept 26 at 1503 yet another colloquial
Spanish 2-way, with ``engine noise``. These contacts always know each
other and may use nicknames, but never any proper IDs; informal
arrangements? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 349-MCW kHz, Sept 25 at 0629 UT, ND beacon GW; I`m tuned to

not Canadian like the GW I recently logged on 371; and there is
another USonian GW on 227. 349 is in Greenwood - Teoc, Mississippi, 25
watts.

353-MCW kHz, Sept 25 at 0630, mixture of ND beacons IN and LI; I have
to listen a while until they are not overlapping as periods are
slightly different. Classaxe.com shows 6.03 seconds for ``Raize`` IN,
and 6.2 seconds for ``Lasky`` LI. IN is 100 watts from International
Falls, Minnesota of renown as often the coldest place in the
Conterminous - after all it`s right next to Fort Frances, Canada; and
LI is 400 watts from Little Rock, Arkansas.

Strangely enough among the I.F. attraxions there is no significant

** U S A. Michael Pack, USAGM refuses supboena to testify; PBS
Newshour reports

Today Sept 24 was the day when Trump`s man heading the USAGM, Michael
Pack, was scheduled to testify before congress, but he ignored the
subpoena! Will he be held in contempt? Charlie Harlich received a
notice from CSPAN about the hearing this morning, but it did not
appear at the time mentioned, nor can we find it anywhere on their
extremely flexible schedule. Perhaps it will become available in their
archive?

Meanwhile, PBS Newshour aired a 7:38 segment about this during the
third quarter of the show today; likewise I can`t find it yet at the
PBS website, but surely it will show. Searching on USAGM, or VOA, or
Pack, or Jamie Fry, one of the interviewees, ex-RFE/RL president,
should find it. This deals with the scandals in general, such as
refusing to renew visas, as two VOA Indonesian reporters are seen
being deported. Anyhow I have recorded it for my archive. Glenn

media outlets that helped the U.S. win the Cold War. One of those

was fired by Pack. He is now at the German Marshall Fund...

New AM DX Log From Laramie, WY: KGSV 660!  View Printable Version 
Friday, September 25 2020

Logs
I can finally count Radio Punjab's KGSV 660 Oildale/Bakersfield, CA in my
log book here in Laramie, WY. With KTNN off after a transmitter breakdown,
it's left 660 wide open. It's mostly been CFFR Calgary but I've had KGSV in
the background almsot the entire time KTNN has been off in the last 4 days.
However, it was just enough to tell KGSV was there.. Punjab music really
sticks out but it just wasn't good enough to meet my "threshold" for what I
consider recordable/loggable.

Tonight, I've had a minute or three of KGSV thats good enough its clearly
identifiable as them and I'd feel comfortable sending this to the station
for a reception report
