Glenn Hauser logs December 17-18, 2020  View Printable Version 
Friday, December 18 2020

Logs
** CANADA. 335-MCW kHz, Dec 18 at 0731, dash and YLD, 1000-watt NDB at
Chapleau, Ontario; would rather hear YUT in Repulse Bay, Nunavut
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also USA [and non]

** CANADA. 990, Dec 18 at 1451 UT, discussion of vaccine distribution
delays in Ontario, with Canuckcent, obviously CBW Winnipeg MB, nice to
hear this long after sunrise, but shortly fading out. At night it all
depends on how much auroral there be, whether this or XET dominate, or
something between like KWAM Memphis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Dec 17 at 0727, no signal from the extremely
unreliable VON; maybe switched to 9690- instead? There is a JBA
carrier and nothing else scheduled, but unseems mandatory offset minus
as to be expected (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA [and non]. 7345, Dec 17 at 0721, something in German is
getting jammed, adding up to S9; yes, soon 0723 ID RRI as scheduled.
The Cuban jamming is slightly excessive because of DRM Radio Martí
only until 0200 with a negligible audience in Cuba. When will innocent
bystations ever learn to avoid any frequency ever jammed by Cuba, past
or present, any time of day? Or employ diplomatic pressure against
Cuba; but those Commies have no respect for Romanian ex-Commies (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 428-MCW kHz, Dec 18 at 0725 UT, NDB POH, which is 25 watts
from Pocahontas, Arkansas. Not always audible, but this is the top
frequency for such in the conterminous (an Alaskan on 429). I have
searched three websites for why it`s named Pocahontas with no
explanations, but presumably inspired by that Virgindian (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 332-MCW kHz, Dec 18 at 0732 UT, again trying to
unravel the NDB pileup here. In addition to IC, Wichita KS, another
one at almost same period which means they are meshing. I copy it as
NIS, but nonesuch listed; closest is FIS, Key West FL - Fish Hook.
Maybe ..-. for F is losing the first two dits or overlain with the I
of IC, making the first letter sound like an N instead of an F? All
this under stronger dash and what I copy as YT, which is also
confusing as there is no YT listed, rather YTE in Nunavut, also XT and
VT Canadians in BC and SK, but should really be QT in Thunder Bay ON
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2064 monitoring: confirmed UT Thu
Dec 17 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S9+5/15 via UTwente SDR; immediately
preceded by Brother Scare, no ID, not R. Slovakia International relay

Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA, and comments:
``Thanks for another year of great programs, in what has
otherwise been a dark year full of bad news``

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com

WOR 2065 confirmed UT Friday December 18 on WRMIs: 5850 VG S9+20/30
here; 5010 VP S5-S7 here, fair at Brasília SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 5950, Dec 18 at 1803 UT, JBA carrier from WRMI which runs 24
hours here. At low noon around the midpoint, I thought it might be
readable if one cared to listen to BS; since the upgrade and change to
355 azimuth, it does hold up better post-sunrise and pre-sunset, and
is even usable at night unlike before, tough luck for Ethiopia, et al.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1210, Dec 18 at 1443 UT, more than hour after sunrise here,
keeps referring to Huron - not the lake but the city in South Dakota:
ad for The Daily Plainsman newspaper --- oooh, I`m a Plainsman as an
EHS grad; show is `The Morning Mess`. Not sure of last word, as in a
meal? It`s KOKK, one of a local group at
https://www.performance-radio.com/
--- and is there a plainsman old program schedule? Of course not! Is
U4 5000/870 watts; day pattern favors SE, night pattern NW. Official
sunrise in Dec & Jan is 1400 UT. This is dominating on my E-W longwire
rather than KGYN Guymon OK almost due west, still at 1453 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1050-, Dec 18 at 1447 UT, obits sponsored by multi-city
funeral home, Pipestone and Sioux Falls SD; AC 507 ads. It`s KLOH
Pipestone MN, U4 9380/432 watts - how`s that for precision? Pipestone
is in the SW corner of MN, so not far from the much larger SxF SD. Day
pattern sports equal lobes to NNE and SW, favoring SxF and us, even on
my E-W longwire. At 1455, a LAH - low audible het appears to be caused
by this one about 15 Hz low beating against one or both OK 1050
groundwavers. However, mwoffsets put it on the plus side:
``1050.0097 USA KLOH (Pipestone, MN) 2019-08-07``
and only one station more than minus 10:
``1049.9798 USA WLIP (Kenosha, WI) [range: -1049.9995] 2019-08-07``
There is also a heavy 248/minute = 4.13 Hz SAH.
The OKies are not listed, but here`s a nearie plus 3.6 Hz:
``1050.0036 USA KSIS (Sedalia, MO) 2018-01-23``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12174.7-USB, Dec 18 at 1526, JBA 2-way in colloquial
Spanish, sounds borracho (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13065, Dec 17 at 1402, open carrier amid fruitless
search for CNR1 jammers, but immediately 1403 replaced by wideband OTH
radar covering 13053-13075 approx. Russia? Evidently it homes in with
an AM carrier before turning on the noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15330-USB, Dec 18 at 1523, 2-way in colloquial Spanish
JBA; not a problem for AFRTS which abandoned this AM from Bethany
sesquidecades ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Logs
** CUBA. 15700, Dec 16 at 1603, S9+20 of dead air, as CRI English
relay hour from 1500 has not yet turned off, wasting precious watts.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, Dec 16 at 1603, RHC Spanish still going here, but only
at S7-S9, which is supposed to end at 1500, let alone 1600;
something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ERITREA [non]. See FRANCE

** FRANCE. 17545V, Wed Dec 16 at 1541, JBA music, no doubt clandestine
for Eritrea, Bayto Yaikl, on apparent twice-weekly emission Wed & Sat.
As always, frequency offset+plus and wobbling, attributed to an
Issoudun transmitter. I try to measure it, cycling somewhere between
17545.050 and 17545.065. Surely same ISS transmitter is used elsewhere
than just this 30+30 minutes per week, but I have seen no other
reports of such behaviour.

Guess what: a few minutes later, bandscanning the 19mb, I encounter
another fluttery JBA carrier behaving exactly the same way! Circa
15285V, or 15285.052 at one point. HFCC shows them both, and BTW, both
brokered by RMI:

``17545 1500 1600 48 ISS 150 120 0
227 1234567 251020 270321 D 17400 Mul F RMI TDF
16017
15285 1600 1700 46S,47N,47SW,52NW ISS 150 170 0
227 1234567 251020 270321 D 17400 Mul F RMI TDF 377``

We already know that the first half of the 15-16 hour is no longer in
use, nor any of it the other days of week, but what languages of the
Multitude? 15285 is not in EiBi, but in Aoki:
``15285 1600-1700 F Radio Manara International Hausa Issoudun 1-7``/

As for 17545, this time EiBi and Aoki agree it`s ``TIG/Tig``, so is
that Tigre or Tigrinya?
``17545 1530-1559 We,Sa CLA Bayto Yiakl TIG ERI /F
17545 1530-1600 F Voice of Yiakl/Bayto Tig Issoudun 7 [= Sat only]``

EiBi readme.txt clarifies?:
``TGR Tigre/Tigré/Tigrawit: Eritrea (1m) [tig]
TIG Tigrinya/Tigray: Ethiopia (4m), Eritrea (3m) [tir]``
Apparently we have two distinct dialects if not languages, but note
the confusion as to how they are spelt, abbr`d in Roman/English.

I`ll bet the waterfalls of both are snaky. I expect there are further
instances of this off-frequency/wobbling transmitter before and after
1530/1700. I wish others would pay more attention to such clues.
KiwiSDRs with `SAM` capability display frequency offsets numerically
and their variations. Even invisibly, they are easy to observe by ear
and by precise frequency readouts to the Hz, with the right receiver
such as my R75, which should be employed to its fullest capabilities.
I further wish that our references would specify individual
transmitters by number at each site; especially HFCC. Or even their
*true* powers. Dream on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA [non]. See FRANCE

** SPAIN. 9690 > 11940 > 12030 > 11685, Wed Dec 16 at 2313 quick
check, all four frequencies of REE English in expected decreasing
signal strength and quality via TWR Bonaire SDR, as Alison Hughes is
narrating something (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 16 at 2314, VOT English, good via Bonaire I have
up, another Wednesday so another hopeful check for `Letterbox` to be
revived: NO; `Review of Foreign Press` in progress, nothing but a few
headlines but wide-ranging; the same old COVID-19 PSA of basic advice
--- but hey, it may save a few lives. Can we think of any other SW
station, even American, which does so on a continuing basis?? 2320,
`Today in History` for December 16, then nothing but music and some
IDs. Their letter box must be overflowing by now, or maybe the lack of
response is killing listener contact (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Holiday Specials on WUOT Knoxville TN, my
ex-station:

https://www.wuot.org/holiday-specials-wuot

Already underway. Times are EST = UT -5. A good selexion. Remember
when I used to round up many more such pages? I`m sure lots of other
webcasting public radio stations continue doing that. Check home pages
for linx.

Unfortunately, I was reminded to check this with news of the shooter
killed outside the Cathedral of St John the [allegedly] Divine in NYC
at an Xmas concert. I hope it was not the annual Paul Winter Solstice
celebration, which on WUOT will be broad/webcast UT Tue Dec 22 at 0000
--- but however live they may sound, these are typically from the
previous year with plenty of post-produxion. Maybe the real thing was
tonight [UT Dec 14] in advance. Plenty of social-distancing available
in there, I suppose, but how is the central air circulation?

Later research: no, it was a `Christmas carol` concert and
you-know-what prevents a new Solstice concert this year, from the
COSJT[A]D calendar:

``Friday, December 18 --- Paul Winter’s 41st Annual Winter Solstice
Celebration 7 PM --- While we're unable to host the Winter Solstice
performance in the Cathedral this year, the celebration will continue
online! Visit solsticecelebration.com for more information...``

Well, that website goes nowhere with or without www. NPR admits that
this year`s broadcast is really from last year, which they would have
been doing anyway; question is, what year will play in 2021?

https://www.npr.org/2020/12/01/936249895/the-paul-winter-consorts-annual-winter-solstice-celebration

This explains how to purchase online access to this year`s concert:
https://paulwinter.com/event/winter-solstice-2020/
I didn`t realize they also do Summer Solstice concerts, maybe not
widely broadcast.

NOTE: Alan Roe has compiled and is updating a calendar of Holiday
broadcasts on SW starting Dec 19, notably BBC, but also US stations
and various German relays. This is being posted to the WOR iog and
other major SWL sites (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also USA: WBCQ

16 from 2100:20 on WBCQ 7490.190v, S7/S9.

Wave); Just music, no announcements. From 0400 to 0600 was Late Nite
in the Heartland. Peter W Hansen``

``Checked 6160 just before 0500 UT December 16, WBCQ with a very poor
signal into Houston. Readable on peaks, but overall unlistenable.
CFRX 6070 does better with its 1 kW here. Stephen Luce, Houston,
Texas``

Also note that Jean Shepherd shows on `Area 61` old-time-radio block
starting nominally at 0000 UT havr Xmas-themed episodes from exact
same local dates in the `60s and `70s, at least on UT Dec 18 and 19.
Keep an eye on the weekly Area 61 previews without exact timings in
2-hour blox, at http://zappahead.net/#area61 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5985, Dec 16 at 0717, open carrier at S9/+10. Nothing
scheduled but unless something totally out of left-field, most likely
WRMI which is really here until 0600; altho this signal is a lot
stronger than normally into OK off the side of the 222-degree beam.

WRMI skedgrid shows 5985 as XMTR #2 at 0330-0600 only, the only one on
a 222-degree antenna, for Central America. EiBi and Aoki agree that is
its total timespan, but not all of it is 7 dpw. HFCC too at 0300-0600,
but also imaginary entries at 05-07 for CRI Arabic via defunct
Albania; a hole at 07-08; and 08-13 1 kW in English from RRI BIA[k?],
Indonesia. It seems the numerous wooden entries for RRI long-gone
regionals default to language English, which is ludicrous! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
