** BRAZIL. 11905-11910-11915, Dec 21 at 0232, quick check of Bonaire
SDR I have up for WOR, unusually finds NO DRM signal from RNA; must be
off, or experiment over? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 4980, Dec 20 at 2312, JBA carrier --- is it WRMI
maybe on exciter? Or Xinjiang PBS. Quickly check the other three of
the quartet there, 5060, 4850 and 4500 and hear nothing, but right
away at 2313 now JBA talk on 5060, so Urumqi is underway.

However, Ivo Ivanov says he was getting WRMI on 4980 via eastern USA
remotes before and after 0700 UT Dec 21 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 13660.000, Dec 21 at 1705, Alameda Bible Fellowship robotic
readings in English, which sound just like the Word Of God should, as
scheduled by RMI for Issoudun; via UTwente in SAM mode which displays
exact frequency, not offset like 17545 and 15285 in previous hours;
also with signature beepclickerry of one ISS defectransmitter; rather
than Bulgaria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 13840, Dec 21 at 0657, JBA carrier; just checking for
any propagation from RNZP now that they have extended this further
into our night instead of 11725 or 9700 which might have served us
non-targetees. 13840 currently sked 0559-0758 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 11770-, Dec 20 at 0650, JBA carrier offset minus,
presumably VON on wrong frequency again as missing from 7255- as well
as from 9690-. Ivo Ivanov had it on 11769.9 Dec 19 at 0600-1100.
Strangely, as I am confirming its offfrequenciness without measuring
exactly, on BFO I am also hearing beeps = carrier cutting on and off,
exactly every 13 seconds on about 11770.08. Is this a VON transmitter
artifact or something else? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [non]. 15285.050V, Dec 21 at 1600, JBA carrier for R.
Manara, as scheduled by RMI via ISSoudun, France. The wobbly
off-frequency continues to raise questions whether it`s really from a
lesser site, such as Bulgaria. I was hoping Ivo could check whether
it`s Secretbrod groundwave to him, even with second harmonic 30570
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also FRANCE

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, Dec 21 at 2309, only pirate signal now is
S9 with music and later chex, no announcement caught. Also reported by
Chris Gay, KU4A, Kentucky at 2254: ``Just now, UNID 6925 USB with song
"Eye of the Tiger" and Kenny Loggins with "Danger Zone". S6. With luck
he comes back later. I have to shutdown soon to watch my nephew play
hockey.``

Earlier on same frequency he had: ``Radio Noid, 6925 USB, 12-20-20,
2113-2118+ UTC. Nice signal in central Kentucky. Song by The Dead
Milkmen and ID via SSTV. I had to tune away for something else
(Gay-KY).``

But here is a cluesy and more simulog from HFU on 6925 USB Dec 20:
``SIO 222 SINPO 22222 Fades in and out
2306 UTC Happy by Pharrell Williams
2309 Saturday in the Park by Chicago
Heard same loop numerous times
Was Good Time Radio last 13 December 2020 Logged
Chuck Kirkpatrick, Location: Massillon, Ohio (NE Ohio)``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2065 monitoring: NOT confirmed at
new time on Area 51, Sunday December 20 at 2300 on WBCQ 6159.93: VG
much better signal than usual, S9+25/35 continuous rock music,
likewise on the webcast which is in $ tereo [unlike `UBMP` on 7490,
even webcast always seems mono]; still past 2324 and 2330, no HRI
either. Peter Hansen noted the same anomaly. But from 0000.5 Dec 21,
`Radio TimTron Worldwide` starts up as scheduled, saying it`s Dec 19,
from WXNZ-LP Skowhegan, his home station with 2.4 watts on 98.1. Last
week 6160v was not even on the air before 0000, but WOR did run at
least on the webcast. Larry Will later explains:

``I apologize for today's missing hour as my automation system
suffered a rare glitch. I've been working with the station to ensure
that the transmitter comes up on time and will continue to monitor the
situation there. It's been an ongoing problem for some time now. Lw``

WOR 2065 confirmed UT Mon Dec 21 at 0040 the 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 21 at 0138 the 0130 on WRMI 7780, good
S9+5/15 into UTWente after having been JBA here and not confirmable.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 21 at 0230 on WRMI 5800, VG S9/+10 into TWR
Bonaire SDR; and 7780, S9/+10 to Utwente; and also WRN webcast

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 21 at 0430 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20 into
Pardinho, Brasil, SDR altho it`s 1:30 am there. Next:

1900vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 5800 to SSE
