** CANADA. UT December 14 after 0700 UT, a very quiet night at my
too-late bedtime for more ND beacons, more under USA.

334-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0730 UT, dash and YER, 200 watts at Fort
Severn, Ontario. Where`s that? ``Fort Severn First Nation is a Western
Swampy Cree First Nation band government located on Hudson Bay and is
the most northern community in Ontario, Canada. In 2001, the
population was 401, consisting of 90 families in an area of 40 square
kilometres. Wikipedia``

332-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0732 UT, dash and YT, mixing with IC Wichita,
which is quite weak, but the usual overrider is QT from Thunder Bay.
Maybe I mis-copied. There is also YTE, 1000 watts from Cape Dorset,
which I would much rather log as first from Nunavut, and the E-dot
could have got lost in the mix. Also a third JBA signal, copied as
YIS? Does not compute. Maybe really FIS in Key West - Fish Hook FL,
400 watts. Need to try these again!

284-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0739 UT, dash and YD. Probably was really QD,
500 watts at The Pas, Manitoba. Yawn, my code-copying may get confused
half-asleep.

274-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0741 UT, dash and YPM, which is 25 watts at
Pikangikum, Ontario. DXinfocenter.com shows it in red as ``back on``

250-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0743 UT, dash and FO, 1600 watts from Flin
Flon, Manitoba.

244-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0744 UT, dash and TH, 1000 watts from Thompson,
Manitoba; the only 244 listed anywhere in North America.

236-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0746 UT, dash and CRJ. Must have been ZRJ, 50
watts from Round Lake, Ontario, ``to be decommissioned 2021-02-25``.

212-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0748 UT, dash and YGX, 50-watt NDB at Gillam,
Manitoba. New, where`s that? ``Gillam is a town on the Nelson River in
northern Manitoba, Canada. It is situated between Thompson and
Churchill on the Hudson Bay Railway line. Many residents of Gillam are
employed by Manitoba Hydro at one of their many facilities or support
groups. Wikipedia``. In 2019y, William Hepburn listed this one as to
remain on air beyond 2026y (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 13660-AM, Mon Dec 14 at 1700, Alameda Bible Fellowship,
robotic readings in English, audible S7 as soon as WINB DRM closes,
via SDR in Forney, Texas. WRMI skedgrid shows this as Mon & Fri only,
500 kW, 135 degrees from Issoudun for East Africa, multilingual. I
knew it had to be ISS as soon as I heard the accompanying beepery from
always-defective transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ICELAND. 189 kHz, Dec 14 at 0750 UT, JBA carrier and near imaginary
or trace of modulation, as I keep tuning below the ``beacon band``,
where DXing 25-watters a kilomile away is not a problem, yet
high-power Euro LW broadcasters elude me. Here`s one almost, maybe.
RÚV, 100 kW, 24 hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Besides many from CANADA, q.v., more ND beacons on a very
quiet night Dec 14:

387-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0724 UT, CAV, which is 25 watts from Clarion,
Iowa.

263-MCW kHz, Dec 14 at 0741 UT, CVM, 25 watts from Alton - Civic
Memorial, Illinois (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2064 monitoring: NOT confirmed
Sunday December 13 at 2300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160v, because it is
OFF THE AIR. Someone at Monticello didn`t get the word to turn it on
an hour earlier than before? WOR is running on the webcast.
http://splatterbox.us/area51
2325 still no SW, and HRI also missing from 2329. 2359 recheck via
Warrenton MO SDR, now 6160 on in time for `Radio Timtron Worldwide`.
Synch AM displays carrier offset as -70v Hz, as usual, like 6159.93v.

WOR confirmed UT Monday December 14 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 14 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, S9/+5 into UTwente,
after 0129 double-IDs by Zanotti and Espinal.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 14 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, same; and WRMI 5800
good direct; and WRN webcast, all almost synchronized.

Also confirmed UT Mon Dec 14 after 0430 on WRMI 9955, S6-S8 into
Missouri SDR; S9+20/30 into Pardinho, Brasil SDR where it`s aimed and
no jamming audible at either. Next:

** U S A. 7490.15v, Sun Dec 13 at 2300, WBCQ S9/+10 direct with `Uncle
Bill`s Melting Pot`, this week with Klezmer and other Jewish music
inspired by some holiday. Better on webcast, and the first half should
repeat on both at 0000 UT Tuesday.

9395, Sun Dec 13 after 2300, another music show on this WRMI, the
new `All Tribes Radio` --- unfortunate scheduling vs UBMP on WBCQ
not to mention WOR. I`m checking ATR periodically during the hour and
do not catch a single announcement, if this be really it, just music.
I do seek out their website which also leads to disgraced FB with more
info about its SW startup,
https://www.facebook.com/notes/10154673406166739/
and illustrates their logo also on QSL captioned as ``This image
"Child Bubble Exploration" Public Domain, courtesy of NASA``
``Tribes`` implies native peoples, but this does not seem to be
``Indian`` at all, but in a much broader sense; About:

``Calling All Tribes To Unite in Peace
All Tribes Radio ·Monday, August 26, 2019·

Calling all tribes to unite in peace, All Tribes Radio (ATR) was
founded by Canadian activist and musician Ken Dunn in 2008. For over
two years, the station broadcast an continuous audio stream featuring
Creative Commons content from studio locations near Toronto, Canada,
and Nosara, Costa Rica via a server in Tampa, Florida to an average
6,000 listeners per month in over 120 countries on all continents. The
station featured trip-hop and electronic music, digital DJs, and
re-broadcast United Nations Radio feeds. In 2010-2011, ATR produced 68
1-hour podcasts. ATR was one of the first internet radio stations to
exclusively feature Creative Commons licensed content.

With the assistance of Gabriela Sequiera and La Voz de Nosara, ATR
broadcast a Spanish-language program, Radio Todas Las Tribus from
Nosara, Costa Rica featuring international latin music and local news
broadcasts from La Voz de Nosara.

ATR's Facebook page continues to attract new fans and promote peace,
social justice, and environmental responsibility around the globe.
Beginning in 2019, the original podcasts will be uploaded to
SoundCloud.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 17775-, Mon Dec 14 at 1603, still no signal from KVOH, not
really expected; wonder what`s wrong with their replacement
frequency/transmitter, 9975, heard ``low-power`` testing Saturday
afternoon but not on UT Sunday after 0000, and never on UT Mondays.
9975 maybe back Monday/UT Tuesday? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13655-13660, Mon Dec 14 at 1631, my previous report reminds
me to attempt to decode WINB DRM as scheduled M-F 12-17 UT. KC9FFV
KiwiSDR at Forney TX is getting it when tuned to 13655 - never mind
its LSB, S7-S8, S/N circa 14.0 dB which is not enough for solid
decode, lo-fi 8.28 kbps audio in and out with heavily African-accented
English by gospel huxter. WINB website will *not* provide a 24-hour
program sked for the webcast, but Listen Live now sounds like the same
guy; analog SW does not start 9265V-wobble until 2000 UT Mondays.

I look at the sked by program name, none obviously African, and none
in the EST AMs on Mondays, just PMs. Maybe I can catch the name,
listening again to the DRM from 1657? Now it`s stronger at S9/+10, but
SNR of only 1-2 dB! so nothing audible. About 1700 the S-meter drops
to S7 as WINB turns off, leaving the band noise level. Then I can hear
an AM on 13660, see FRANCE. BTW, WINB-DRM was back on 7310-7315-7320
after 07 UT Monday rather than unscheduled 9260-9265-9270 as heard UT
Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

east of Lake Nipigon.

401-MCW kHz, Dec 13 at 0813 UT, I am awake later than I would like,

413-MCW kHz, Dec 13 at 0816 UT, dash and YHD, 250-watt beacon at
Dryden, Ontario (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) More under USA

** CHILE? 7610.0-AM, Dec 12 at 2308, weak continuous music, JBA S8-S9
via Pardinho, Brasil SDR with lighting crashes from a few little
storms over SP state. Weaker S7, less signal but also less noisy at
Santiago SDR. I`m checking this right after I hear some guy on WRMI
7780 mention Claudio Galaz` logs of RCW again = Radio Compañía
Worldwide, considered to be a Chilean pirate, mainly reported by him.

Why not try to fix it with TDOA? 2312 first try puts it in the NE
corner of Brasil on the coast. I doubt that. Next try using SDRs in
DR, Paraguay, Chile lands at 41.20 south, 68.30 west, which is N
central Argentina. I would still not rule out really Chile. 2340
finally hear an announcement, sounds like Dino Bloise, but back to
music rather than `Frecuencia al Día` which CGT has also heard on this
station. Reception now better tho crashier at Pardinho. 2352 briely
some ``running water`` ute QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6100, UT Sun Dec 13 at 0736, no RHC English, and all other
frequencies are off. Bodes ill for Esperanto at 0800. 6100 is normally
at least the one staying on past 0700. Something`s always wrong at
RHC. But at 0820 rousing I do find 6100 back on during Esperanto,
S9+20 but undermodulated. Next Esperanto also confirmed at 1610 on
11760 & 15140 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** RUSSIA. 4625, Dec 12 at 2358, the ``Buzzer`` in well via UTwente,
two-tone, lower-higher buzzy pulses continuously. Andy Reid had just
reported it from Ontario to the WOR iog: ``[WOR] The Russian buzzer is
propagating well as of this writing. 4625 2353 UT Dec 12``. First I
try Maine SDR but no go there, so doubt it will reach OK either.
Switching UTwente between USB and LSB by 0022 Dec 13, I notice that
the second, higher tone is hardly audible when tuned in LSB, both of
them equally, in USB. This thing has been subject of doomsday
scenarios and quite a mystery as to its real purpose (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 251-MCW kHz, Dec 13 at 0750 UT, AM, 100-watt NDB at
Amarillo, Texas.

412-MCW kHz, Dec 13 at 0814 UT, CMY, 30-watt NDB at Sparta - Fort
McCoy, Wisconsin. I was tuned to 411-USB.

was tuned to 412-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7490.15v, UT Sun Dec 13 at 0407, WBCQ in `Shortwave Saturday
Night`, Pirate Joe, J.P. Ferraro monolog about COVID-19, Trump vs
SCOTUS. I am standing by to hear what happen at 0430 when WHRI is
scheduled to start 7490. Just before then, PJJP is saying he would
never expect to thank the Federalist Society, but gives that credit
for SCOTUS justices, even Drumpf appointees, being
strict-construxionists denying his attempts to steal the elexion ---
when he is chopped off the air abruptly at 0430* --- does he know WBCQ
is doing this to him? Maybe pre-recorded but obviously recent/current.
His show is supposed to run until 0500.

7490.0, a few seconds later before *0431, a stronger signal cuts on
without ID, but obviously WHRI, now with gospel music and huxters;
0447 ``Hello, Overcomer`` but this is not TOMBS. 0459 ending RW
Ministry from McHenry MD, NO ID; 0500, `Christian Worship Hour`. 0558
fill music, 0558.5 ad to support Voice of Martyrs, the persecuted
Yazidi Christians in Iraq --- WHRI used to insert these between Voice
of Vietnam relays on 7315, incongruously. 0559 finally `Onward
Christian Soldiers` militaristic crusader theme and ``WHRI, Cypress
Creek SC`` ID, itself cut off by 0600* before music can finish, how
rude! All this as heard for convenience via Warrenton MO SDR still
running after WOR check earlier.

6160v, what`s on the other WBCQ? At 0422 UT Sunday December 13, A
``pagan`` show from Wisconsin, claiming to be on WBCQ Friday nights,
see the sked --- ?? NOT there or now for either frequency. By 0431,
6160 in song, 0437 an off-key parody of ``Also Sprach Zarathustra``;
0438 musing that may start a new transmitter on ``5100`` weekends, and
call it ``Area 51`` --- so decades-old recording referring to its
original frequency, later 5110, 5130, and gone; 0441 as a `countdown`
program dated Dec 10, 2001; ``Seldom Heard Radio`` with Frederick Moe,
36 West Main[e?] St., Warner NH, unclear website. One I find:
http://seldomheardradio.blogspot.com/
Lotsa stuff but dating from 2005 to 2010y only, not before or since.

The Area 51 sked merely names this hour ``Listener`s Choice``:
http://zappahead.net/#2020-1212-area51

On all other days of week, 6160v has been carrying a far-right wacko
live? conspiracy talkshow at 0400-0600 except for UT Mondays the
weekly white racist `Herald of Truth` at 0400-0500, both of which were
originally on WBCQ 7490v, but had to move and bump other programs off
6160v due to WHRI on 7490 from 0430. Once WBCQ buys WHRI, presumably
this can be rearranged more equitably. Or everything but World`s Last
Chance flat-earthiness gets blown off, like 9330.

The talkshow is *still* shown on the WBCQ skedgrid as on 7490, not
6160! Don`t blame listeners if confused about which station they are
really hearing on 7490, especially since WHRI suppresses any ID until
sign-off! Meanwhile I have been looking at the WBCQ websked to try to
figure out what is going on. At first it is very strange with spurious
words replacing some entries in the days-of-week columns: On, You,
Know. Header says something about New Year programs. Also popping up
is an offer to translate this page from Italian! Now, or always? How
about never possibly. Maybe it is being edited or hacked. It`s back to
normal by 0519 altho still incorrect (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Via Lubbock SDR, still tuned to last night`s unsuccessful
9975 check for KVOH, Sat Dec 12 from 2020, I am hearing some S5-S7
music hard to place, but VOA Korean via Thailand is listed 1900-2100.
Oh oh, 2033, Spanish ``Ésta es --`` algo and then recognizable praise
music in Spanish, so looks like KVOH is on long before 0000, a time
not authorized, testing instead of 17775? No sign of VOA which is 250
kW at 38 degrees thisaway.

LSB needed to avoid VG 9980 WWCR, which is why KVOH is not supposed to
start until WWCR off at 0000. Maybe it`s still there somewhere, but on
website I haven`t found any KVOH program schedule for the 24h
streaming, or the former 17775 which would not be in Spanish midday
Saturday; just the new 00-07 SW segment.

[BTW, believe it or not, during this I am multi-tasking to the fifth
degree: KVOH panned to mostly one earphone from one SDR; WOR via
WA0RCR via another SDR, panned to the other earphone, including the
``17790 IS`` at 2050 which is not clipped out for ham radio, so does
not qualify as music? Plenty of ham modes employ tones in a similar
way and that`s obviously kosher; also two PBS TV channels, one of them
muted with captions; and continuing interjexions from my neighbor who
knows more about medieval Spain than the TV scholars. I, anyway, once
visited Córdoba well into the last century --- the one in Spain, not
the lesser copies in Argentina or México, or almost Alaska. That is:
``The Ornament of the World tells the story of a remarkable time in
history when the Muslims, Christians and Jews forged a common cultural
identity that frequently transcended their religious differences.``
Make that six, also writing this.]

9975: At 2049 into Spanish sermon about ``delitos`` = sins, 2051
mentions Los Ángeles``, 2054 ID La Voz de la Esperanza, carol ``El
Tamborilero``.

Ray Robinson only replies that it`s a ``Low power test.`` How low?

Still at 2214 with music. So is KVOH now all set for a real full-power
broadcast after 0000 UT Sunday December 13 as scheduled? NO! Check at
0048, nothing there via Lubbock SDR, nor at 0103 direct. 0300 when
`Wavescan` scheduled: still not via Lubbock; 0600 still nothing
direct. So it seems KVOH has not one, but two broken transmitters.
Maybe they should try broadcasting to Americas via Zambia. Hmmm,
wasn`t that originally part of the plan, at least S America? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Dec 13 at 0124, WTWW-2 still ham news, but 0128
recheck, now `TOUTA` has started, so I switch to $ tereo webcast.
Xmasmx of course, and Bob Heil says it will be nothing-but, for rest
of year, finishing at 0157 and back to inorganic rock (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9260-9265-9270, Sunday December 13 at 0738, DRM noise above
9265, but something else digital below 9265, surely WINB hybrid which
supposedly does this M-F only, and on 7315 from 0700, not 9265 until
1000! What`s going on? I have yet to get around to listening to what
programming they put on half a DRM signal, likely little but gospel
huxters, when I am conveniently on computer to access a DRM-capable
SDR, M-F 12-17 UT on 13655-13660. Here`s one DRM sked:
