Great going Paul. A common catch here, but it is all water-path.

Wednesday, November 25 2020

Logs
** ARMENIA. 9290, Nov 24 at 1355 past 1400 with no break, S Asian
language at S6-S9. Still there but weaker at 1417 vs running-H2O QRM.
It`s TWR-India via Gavar, in Hindi daily 1345-1415, amid a total span
of 1315-1445 in various languages. Aoki/NDXC shows Hindi until 1420 on
weekdays, otherwise English until 1425*, extended to 1445* weekends
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. UNIDENTIFIED. 4925, Nov 25 at 0217, JBA talk, equivalent VP
signal to S Americans on 4940, 4885. Only 4925 in EiBi is Korean
numbers not at this hour but if on would not be propagating. WRTH 2020
has 5 kW Rádio Rural, Tefé, Amazonas, Brasil as irregular. Aoki/NDXC
shows 0930-0200 as if regular. Not reported lately, but found this
from JRX in Brasil: ``4925. Apr 15, 2020. 0313-0333, Rádio Educação
Rural de Tefé, Tefé-AM, in Portuguese. A musical program with variety
songs; Female voice; A song; Male voice, ID and announcements; 0331 A
song; 0333 Ends and sign-off. Poor reception.`` I don`t get around to
checking TWR Bonaire SDR for this until 0333 --- nothing there (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer search WOOB November 24 at 1346: JBA Chinese or
JBA carriers: 11500, 11460, 11440, 11150, 11100, 10870; none in the
14s, 13s, 12s; 9315, 9300, 9180 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Nov 24 at 2205, RHC is dead air, then ramps up to JBM
Spanish, perhaps a typical sign-on warmup, only S4-S7 as is English on
11880. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But recheck at 2348, 11850 is
off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, Nov 25 at 0222, RHC English is S5-S7, undermodulated,
unusable. Only //, 6000 is even worse, S9/+10 and JBM. Somethings are
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6924.884-AM, Nov 25 at 0223, VP S7-S8 music, only
pirate activity now; 0232 brief announcement, more music, LA? 0253
still going, at 0254 into MCW, but fading and only partially copiable
and perhaps with errors; ``CA - OA - OIAEN - ZAN - ORA - ABEC``, until
0258*. Thought it might be Nova, which does CW IDs, but no fit.

KIPM was reported on ``6925`` as late as 0130, but in USB:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74782.0.html

Stardust Five Laser Radio was on 6925-AM, but not since 2158 Nov 24:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74777.0.html

I was hoping someone on HFU would have IDed this and/or copied the
code. Nor any old hits there on the exacter frequency 6924.9 -- but I
had such a log last Feb, which led back to Captain Morgan SW in May
2017 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PANAMA. 18146.8-USB, Nov 24 at 2155, HP3SS working US stations, at
30 miles from Costa Rican border in western Panamá. Sounds like an
American --- no, Canadian, without a specific address in QRZ.com:
``HP3SS Panama flag Panama, Robby Robertson, Volcan, Panama. QSL: via
AC2OV`` and: ``Please do not send mail to Panama. I will not recieve
it. Please do not QSL via buro. I do not recieve cards from the QSL
buro. I have been living in Panama since October 2015. I operated as
HP3/VY2SS for a year while I waited for my Panama call. I enjoy
contesting and DX. My equipment is: Flex 6400 and Ameritron AL-1200.
Antennas are: 20M-6M - 3 element Steppir yagi at 75 feet. Please QSL
direct to AC2OV with SAE and sufficient return postage. Previous calls
- VY2SS, CY9SS, VE2/VY2SS, VE7ARS, VE8HF, VE3FYB, VE1AGN``.

BTW, in my daytime bandscans between the ham and bc bands, I routinely
tune across the 17.9+ MHz aero band --- and *never* encounter any
activity. EiBi lists a number of stations around the world available
24 hours, starting with Albrook, Panamá on 17901. Maybe the aeronauts
are writing off this band as dead even when it isn`t (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 414-MCW kHz, Nov 24 at 0708 UT, ND beacon ATS, which is 25
watts from ArTeSia, New Mexico; also audible tuned to 412-USB. Last
logged Oct 6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 21250-USB, Nov 24 at 1859, WW2DX calling CQDX 15, good
signal yet the OSOB; what a desirable vanity callsign: ``WW2DX USA
flag USA, Lee J Imber, Pawling, NY 12564 USA``. Per QRZ.com he`s quite
the DX-peditioner, including Sable Island postponed from Oct 2020 to
Oct 2021 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2061 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday
November 24 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+15/20 via UTwente; at 0121
check direct, poor S8-S9.

Also confirmed UT Tue Nov 24 at new time 0200 on WRMI 9955, S9+10
direct.

Also confirmed UT Tue Nov 24 at 0330 on WRMI 5800, S9+10/20 direct.
Next:

2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2300 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support:
by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to:
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702

Or via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. I neglected to include the time of UB`s TG special, fixed:
(7490.1v), UT Tue Nov 24 from 0000, WBCQ webcast cuts off some wacko
conspiracy talk for 50% of `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, replay from 25
hours ago when it all aired; starting with a scrotum song, but we have
been warned. Also plugs his TG special UT Fri Nov 27 *at 0300-0400* on
6160v & 7490v. I often catch this semi-repeat due to a scheduling
conflict the day before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, Nov 25 at 0215, WTWW-2 is S9+30 with request request,
not so distorted as the music before and after it, tsk2 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10533-USB, Nov 24 at 1348, 2-way in language, maybe
Indonesian, as I am patrolling for CNR1 jammers (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

Tuesday, November 24 2020

Logs
** CANADA. 284-MCW kHz, Nov 23 at 0719 UT, dash and QD, 500 watts from
The Pas, Manitoba. Evidently the name is not Anglo-French;
The Canadian Encyclopedia says: ``The origin of the name is uncertain,
but it may be the Cree word W'passkwayaw, meaning “wooded narrows” (in
the river) ... The Pas Band (now the Opaskwayak Cree Nation)
surrendered the townsite in 1906 and moved to reserve lands on the
north bank of the Saskatchewan River. Jun 11, 2019``. Well, cutting it
to three letters is a whew goodthing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Nov 23 at 0311, quick check of Bonaire SDR finds
usual good signal of gospel huxter in Spanish from anonymous mystery
missionary station -- AMMS? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9535, Nov 22 at 2327, RHC JBA under multiple
collision, Commies vs Commies: Aoki/NDXC shows CNR1 jamming, RFA
Tibetan via Kuwait; and also CRI English via Kunming. In fact seems to
be an echo on the Chinese from more than one site. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6145, Nov 23 at 0312, no RHC English signal, at
Bonaire remote, while 9700 is JBA, 6000 S8. To Missouri SDR, 9700 is
VG S9+10, no 6145, and 6000 is S9+30 but JBM distorted --- must be
`DXers Unlimited` minus Arnie as his sub talks about propagation.

Another check at 0525: 9700 is on over CCI which would be Turkey; 6100
and 6060 are absent; 6000 suptorted; 6145 in Romanian which must be
RRI, perhaps explaining why RHC evacuated tho I had not noticed this
hour collision before. By 0608, 6100 is finally on, VG S9+30/40, so
starting at 0600? Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, Nov 23 at 2111, RHC in French also reactivated and //
synchronized 15140 distorted; 13680 now in Portuguese poor at S8-S9.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KUWAIT. 15540, 15530, 11970, Nov 23 from 1800, no signals from
anything on R. Kuwait frequencies. Pedro Sedano, Spain, had recorded
the 0800 UT sign-off announcement on 15530 saying that was on 11970
and English would resume at 1800-2100 on 15540 for Europe and North
America --- altho morning English recently resumed replacing Arabic,
still no evening English, unless on and not propagating, but I doubt
that, rather a very old recorded outdated announcement. But perhaps
there be hope. That transmission presumably still exist at least on FM
& AM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MADAGASCAR. 11610, Nov 23 at 2145, MWV in correct language,
Chinese, always VG >> 4.000 MHz higher, 15610 WEWN English; other MWV
frequency 9765 in correct Portuguese altho the final praise song
sounds Spanish until 2157 dead air with no closure (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6185-, Nov 22 at 2319, XEPPM is S9, as always
undermodulated, but now also with CCI, Chinese? No, per Aoki/NDXC, CRI
in Mongolian this hour via Xianyang 59 site. Mexico`s last SW station
don`t get no respect, as Ivo Ivanov also notes:

``Upcoming frequency change of NHK World Radio Japan via MBR
Moosbrunn, Austria, ex-6155 from Nov 30:
0430-0500 NF 6185*MOS 300 kW / non-dir to WeEu English Mon-Fri
0500-0530 NF 6185*MOS 300 kW / non-dir to WeEu English Sat/Sun
0400-0430 on 6185*MOS 300 kW / 115 deg to N/ME Turkish Daily AWR
*bad news for 6185 MEX 001 kW / non-dir to CeAm Spanish Daily XEPPM
Radio Educacion!``

Per Aoki/NDXC other 6185 obstacles: China Huayi from 0915, VOK from
1000, and Vatican in Chinese until 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Nov 23 at 0605, no signal from VON (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950.9-AM, Nov 22 at 2312, JBA music at S6 = QRN
level. Insane Radio as reported here much better:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,74716.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 274-MCW kHz, Nov 23 at 0718 UT, ND beacon RG, which is 25
watts from Red WinG, Minnesota, a.k.a. Shoe City; and not to be
confused with our RG on 350 in OKC. I was tuned to 272-USB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2061 monitoring: missed checking UT
Mon Nov 23 at 0030 on WRMI 7730; did anyone hear it?

Confirmed UT Mon Nov 23 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, G S9+10 at UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 23 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, S8-S9 at UTwente;
also on 5800, S9+25 into Pardinho, Brasil SDR; also almost
synchronized on WRN webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 23 at 0400 on Area 51 webcast, after a
Miller Beer commercial(?); but on WBCQ 6159.9 direct at 0427, JBA vs
HNL = high noise level.

Also confirmed UT Mon Nov 23 at 0430 on WRMI 9955, good S9+10/20/30
direct, as usual right after 2+ minutes of music fill from R. Prague
relay, no ID break. No pulse jamming? Only audible during some RMI
fades; still at good level toward end of semi-hour. You never know
whether this transmission will be VG or JBA.

Also confirmed Mon Nov 23 from 1901 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria,
recorded via UTwente and checked later: *1857.5 carrier on quieting
but still with annoying ACI splash continuing during WOR; almost 1900
IRRS sign-on with Milano PO Box and phone, 3 quick FSN headlines and
then WOR: spotchecked intact for next 13 minutes at least. Next:

0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
0200 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [jammed?] NEW
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 5800 to SSE
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
2300 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Or via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to: woradio at yahoo.com
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5850, Nov 22 at 2314, Brother HyStairical is VP, only S6-S7,
hard to believe it`s WRMI on NW beam which normally blasts in here.
It`s as weak or even weaker than never-strong 5950 to WNW. Can`t be
propagation, since 5800 WRMI is VG S9+25/30 with SMTV despite aimed
SSE from FL. 5850 must be temporarily QRP, and is back up to full
strength checked a few hours later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7490.1v), UT Tue Nov 24 from 0000, WBCQ webcast cuts off
some wacko conspiracy talk for 50% of `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`,
replay from 25 hours ago when it all aired; starting with a scrotum
song, but we have been warned. Also plugs his TG special UT Fri Nov 27
on 6160v & 7490v. I often catch this semi-repeat due to a scheduling
conflict the day before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VENEZUELA. 6906, Nov 23 at 0311, quick check of Bonaire SDR finds
still no trace of an ROCV signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
