** ALGERIA. 17600, July 16 at 0630, Ifrikya FM in French, S7/S9 direct
and the SSOB besides several JBA carriers with Doppler flutter, but
not on this. If anyone catch them in English again, let us know, but
probably on no reliable schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 7, KOCO ``5`` OKC, celebrates its 70th anniversary,
from July 15, 1954, originally KGEO analog A5 in Enid, owned by a guy
named GEOrge. Many items about Enid on their newscasts of July 15,

** TURKEY. Re my July 5 report, Alan Roe replies on the WOR iog at
1911 July 16: ``Hi Glenn, Bill, I have just checked, and confirm that
the play link for "TRT VOT World" is currently (since 1830 today) live
streaming the English 1830 UT broadcast. You can get there by via
https://www.trtdinle.com/radyolar
then scroll down to VOT Radyolari and click on TRT VOT World.
Alternatively use
https://www.trtdinle.com/channel/trt-vot-world-7547
and select TRT VOT World. Based on past experience, these links should
work for all broadcasts except 1630 UT (1730 in winter) which is heard
via the TRT VOT East link at
https://www.trtdinle.com/channel/trt-vot-east
I'll update the WOR Hitlist in a few days. Alan Roe, Teddington, UK``
(via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, July 16 at 2158, no signal direct from VOT
English, but cut on a few sex late after 2200 s/on, unusable at S9 =
noise level, considerably weaker than Romania 11800. 2233 into UTwente
when measured, S9+40/50 in music. 2237 ``always-by-your-side`` promo,
and `Turkey`s Geomarked Products` = Van, city of breakfasts, music.
Did not refer us to these:
https://www.dailysabah.com/life/food/expat-briefer-why-a-van-breakfast-is-special
https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/van-turkey-world-capital-of-breakfasts/index.html
2244 ``a-b-y-s` again, multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2247 music. 2253
s/off version ignoring SW. 2254 IS. 2256 restart IS with German IDs.
Chopoff at 2259.8* just in time to avoid extra German. Something`s
always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15120, July 16 at 2205, SSOB at S9+20/40 - but it`s dead
air, obviously VOA failing again to turn itself off after M-F 2130-2200 
Bambara; something`s gone wrong at Grimesland (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2251 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday July 16 at 0340 the 0330 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 into Maryland
SDR.

Confirmed Tuesday July 16 a 1315 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, JBA direct:
but, no signal rechecked at 1325! I try other WRMI frequencies:
nothing on 15770, 9395, 7780, 7730, 7570, so power failure at Okee?
JBA on 9455 but that could be TAIWAN.

I`m concerned because WRMI was also missing from 9955 the past two
Tuesdays when checking for WOR before 1330. Jeff did not reply to my
inquiry about being off the air on Tuesdays. However, there is another
explanation this week!:

``Space Weather Message Code: SUMX01
Serial Number: 165
Issue Time: 2024 Jul 16 1346 UTC

SUMMARY: X-ray Event exceeded X1
Begin Time: 2024 Jul 16 1311 UTC
Maximum Time: 2024 Jul 16 1326 UTC
End Time: 2024 Jul 16 1336 UTC
X-ray Class: X1.9
Location: S05W85
NOAA Scale: R3 - Strong

NOAA Space Weather Scale descriptions can be found at
www.swpc.noaa.gov/noaa-scales-explanation

Potential Impacts: Area of impact consists of large portions of the
sunlit side of Earth, strongest at the sub-solar point. Radio - Wide
area blackout of HF (high frequency) radio communication for about an
hour.``

Or, as spaceweather.com put it via Mike Terry: ``Departing sunspot
AR3638 exploded today (July 16th @ 1326 UT), producing an X1.9-class
solar flare. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the extreme
ultraviolet flash. Radiation from the flare caused a deep shortwave
radio blackout over the Atlantic Ocean. Transatlantic mariners and
ham radio operators may have noticed loss of signal at all frequencies
below 30 MHz for as much as an hour after the flare.``

What about SWLs?! It seems unlikely such an event would recur on a
`schedule` at exactly same time three weeks running. At 1327, WWCR was
JBA on 15825. By 1430, 9955 was again a JBA carrier.

WOR 2251 also confirmed Tuesday July 16 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia,
1322.994 kHz, S9+5 into UTwente; preceded by Wavescan, Jeff White
reading in Spanish publicity about the upcoming Mexi-DX meeting in
coördination with R. Educación. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160;
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

** U S A. 9955, July 16 at 0635, WRMI in Spanish at S9+20/25 bothering
9960 VANUATU. So it`s again the unscheduled RFI relay (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15150, July 16 at 0637, DEJOM at S9+15/20, 0638 WMLK ID, so
this broadcast reactivated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, July 16 at 0634, YL in Bislama, presumably the PSA
spots on R. Vanuatu, S7/S8 with ACI from WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1649.58 & 1650.42, July 16 at 0628, ~420 Hz tone not
from Iowa, again. Is anyone else hearing this? Should not be hard to
pinpoint. Maybe so only after a local midnight. Could be plugged into
wrong satellite feed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 13828-13850 approx., July 16 at 2248, OTH radar
clickery, peaking at S9, and still audible under PMS on 13845 WWCR
S9+10/20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 6016.84, July 15 at 0211, JBA carrier, presumably this as
reported a few nights ago: ``COLOMBIA, 6017, Organización Radial El
Prado, 0353-0357*, 09-07, after many months without hearing it, today
on air with Colombian song and closing transmission with the national
anthem of Colombia. 15422. Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, Log in
Reinante, NW of Spain, Sangean ATS 909X, Tecsun PL-880, cable antenna,
8 meters``. And he reports it again just now: ``6016.9, Organización
Radial El Prado, 0128-0137, 15-07, Spanish, comments, Latin American
songs. 15421.`` Two sesquiyears ago it was reported on 6016.4 and
6016.7. Wethinx this be a pirate; not in WRTH 2024 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, UT Monday July 15 at 0219, RHC English propaganda, VG
S9+30 here and nowhere else, not even 6000. A bit of studio reverb and
YL accent impaired comprehension. At 0234, Elena Valverde with
``Caribbean Outlook Show`` about H. Beryl damage to several Windward
islands [or it seems that Windward & Leeward have fallen out of
fashion; unofficial anyway]. The Other Side:

``Where are you going, Cuba? --- Fidel Castro lost the country. Today,
Castroism is just struggling to stay in power, at any cost.
Jorge A. Sanguinetty, Miami 09 Jul 2024 - 21:26 CEST
Cuban emigrants on a raft. Getty Images

Pursuing his cardinal goal of perpetuating himself in power, in 1959
Fidel Castro planted the seeds of a crisis that today seems to be
finally winding to an end. The bearded commander rose to power on a
scaffolding of unaccountable government so that he could implement his
personal agenda, breaking his promise to restore the 1940 Constitution
and hold democratic elections, as it was always his aim —privately
confessed to his most trusted confidante, Celia Sánchez— to foment
perpetual confrontation with the United States, perhaps because he
felt despised by how Washington treated him, perhaps because it was
the only enemy as enormous as his ego...``

** CUBA. 5955, July 15 at 0607, not wideband noise with hum centered
here, unlike the usual pulse-jamming sound against no R. República
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, July 15 at 1455, RHC at S6/S8 of dead air, some hum,
not sure if JBM. Not found anywhere else, 15140 missing as usual.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, July 15 at 1915, NO signal from RHC`s first English
broadcast of the day - make that zeroeth, as usual. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. However, it can happen: Ron Trotto, IL, had it on July
12; and Rick Barton, AZ, on July 6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, July 16 at 0137, S9/+20 of dead air in Spanish from
RHC. Nothing at all on possible English frequencies, 11950, 9700,
6000. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, July 16 at 0151, no signal from R. Progreso; but 5025
R. Rebelde is on at S9+20/30 somewhat distorted. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6955 USB, July 15 at 0201, pirate music at S7/S8,
interrupted for announcement at 0202, ``go to wix.com [??], single
life portal [?] platform``, back to music. Filed here as WIND tho no
one seems to quote an ID by those letters:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,131537.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6938.0 AM, July 15 at 0203, JBM talk at S7. Probably
a pirate, but nothing in HFU recently on this frequency/mode (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon July 15 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
direct and also audible on 17715, 15520, 15390. Preview topic to be
about the province of León pushing for autonomy from Castilian
domination (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, Sunday July 14 at 2201, not off the air, VOT
English underway, olds by Ms Badax, S9+40 into UTwente. 2209 `Weekly
Analysis` on the NATO/Washington summit. 2213 music. 2218 `Letterbox`
intro but plays a tune first before host speaks at 2224. Opens mail
for first time, almost all QSL requests, some with standard wording,
from: Japan where it`s rainy season. Handwritten from Spain, can`t
make out name. Miss Mei Lin in Szechuan, China says she wrote 8
letters last year and 4 so far this year without any replies: host
thinx it`s because altho wrote in English, address is in Chinese only,
which the QSL dept. can`t handle. Another from Spain, ditto. A.
Klepov, Moscow, a regular. Another from Russia. Andrei Kuznetsov, a
Russian name in Riga, ``Letonia``. ``Eugene`` K. in Russia. Craig
Tyson, Perth, Australia, two in a row. Jayanta Chakroborty, India.
Says QSLs in postal mail should arrive with stamps [rather than
metered?]. Two more from Tyson = four reports for four days in a row.
2240 time`s up, ``goodbye, my lovely dear listeners``, music fill
again until 2240 `L`box` intro/outro plays again, then music outside
it. 2250 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2252 Ms Badax s/off as if the
1230 on 17620, IS until chop at 2254.8* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.019, Mon July 15 at 2205, VOT English not off the
air, but unreadable direct at only S9 level equal to noise. 2225 into
UTwente when measured, S9+35/45, `The Energy Agenda` repeat about
effects of Russian/Ukrainian war. 2231 Ms Badax with `That`s Why`,
black is not a color. 2235 music. 2239 multi-lingual ID filler reel.
2241 music. 2253 Badax s/off as 1230 on 17620. 2254.7 IS main theme
only twice before chop by 2255* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [and non]. 7260 AM, July 16 at 0147 snippet of music
recognizable as one of the themes duriing VOT English. This is Spanish
as sked; also an LSB ham right on frequency for free BFO (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7630.5 USB, July 16 at 0141, military net with quick 2-way
voice contacts, callsigns abbreviated but unreadable; pauses for
``test messages`` in digihash. Searching frequency in UDXF iog gets a
few hits as USAF MARS no more recently than 2014y; nothing on exact
frequency in 2022y Klingenfuß (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 9955, July 15 at 0604, WRMI is off again instead
of persistent late extension, leaving 9960 VANUATU alone but JBA. 9955
is still on past 1500 July 15, S4/S6 like noise level, cannot discern
if modulated. 5010 was also off at 0604, as it would usually match
9955 late activity (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15150, July 15 at 0600, still no signal from WMLK, which
should have started at 0400 on a non-Sabbathday. Not a peep from
DEJOM. Usual spread of several other mostly JBA signals on 19mb. BUT:

9275 *is* on July 15 at 1739, VG S9+10/25 into Maine SDR (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1549.82 approx., July 15 at 0225, carrier/het to 1550.00
stations. Like I logged May 16 at 0627 on 1549.91. Not to be confused
with tones flanking 1650, as I was about to (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1649.58 & 1650.42 approx., July 15 at 0612, ~420 Hz tone
against a FSR 1650 station, which would be KCNZ Iowa; so this is
something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Over-the-Horizon radar rapid clickery in three different
spans with the same sound, approx.:
15942-15966, July 15 at 0157, S9
9152-9176,  July 15 at 0216, S7
12167-12190, July 15 at 0230.
Note the `typical` bandwidth about 24 kHz. From Europe, or Asia?

** CUBA. 9790, July 14 at 0321, CRI English relay S9+30/40,
conversation in Americanish English sounds so normal, but quite
undermodulated, e.g. compared to 9740 RRI English. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [non]. 9440, July 14 at 0316 Japanese at S9+20/30; must be

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27184.9, July 14 at 0331 UT, Enid CB pirate // 105.5
K288FX gospel music, not very undermodulated, and nothing on 27225v
this time, but quite a het from a 27184.6 carrier (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** ROMANIA. 15325-15330-15335, July 14 at 0327 DRM noise at S9+10, RRI
Tsiganeshti site for South Asia in English; hardly necessary with VG
AM signal for us on 9740 from Galbeni (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, continued from last report, VOT English July 13:
2249 ``always-by-your-side`` promo again; 2254 s/off as if on 17620 at
1230; 2255 IS to 2255.6* chop (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2251 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
July 13 at 2300 on WTWW 9474.981, S6/S9 into Maine SDR. A few minutes
earlier the signal direct faded way down, SID? Gradually recovered but
level in Maine is lower than it should be.

Also confirmed UT Sunday July 14 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, S7/9+5 into
Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday July 14 from 0445 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, the
nominal 0315v very sesquihour late, S9+25 direct, and also via nearby
remote, following ARRL Audio News which at 0432 followed interminable
Houston Hamsat, which started at 0336 following TWIAR. HHS nominal
time is 0200! No offense, but I wonder if anyone outside Houston
really be interested in listening to that.

Also confirmed Sunday July 14 at 1900 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1322.994

As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated. Thanks this
week for a generous contribution from William T Hassig, Mt Prospect

** U S A. 9395, July 14 at 0650, WRMI-6 in German, mentions tofu, and
apparently a recipe recited; not // 9455, WRMI-5 with TOMBS. Surely
the German is Supreme Master TV cult, unpredictably multi-lingual. But
skedgrid claims during this hour it`s on both frequencies. SMTV is
System J, but there is no separate ``J`` program schedule below,
skipping from H to K (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1649.585 & 1650.415 approx., July 14 at 0640, double het
against 1650 stations, i.e. a tone of about 415 Hz transmitted instead
of something off-frequency. There are only six US stations on 1650,
two Canadians, and zero Mexicans. Normally dominant are KCNZ IA or
KBJD CO, and despite proximity, hardly KFSW AR > really in OK (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. RF 19, July 14 at 1525 UT, STB gets BAD signal here,
which means it`s not KAUT OKC in ATSC 3.0, invisible but normally 
blocking anything else, antenna still aimed at OKC. Tropo is up to the north,
so presumably 1000 kW KWCH Hutchinson/Wichita KS which is not 3.0, for
the first time. Also BAD signals on RF 8 & 10 correlating with Hutch/Wich
market (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
