** ANTARCTICA. On July 26, I sent my log of the Sat July 25 LRA36
special for QSL, to the address I heard announced, and quoted in my
log report, tranalra36@radionacional.com.ar --- but it bounced July
27. So I resent it to an address mentioned in previous publicity:
tranalra36@radionacional.gov --- I hope this one be correct. That one
just bounced too, immediately. WHAT is the correct one? Bruce
Churchill replied: Tranalra36@radionacional.gov.ar --- This is the
correct address``. So I try a third time: no bounce, but no reply yet
either. Trana is name of the LRA36 person (Glenn Hauser, OK, July 28,
WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, July 28 at *0011:46.5, RHC carrier cuts on and starts
undermodulating Spanish in less than a minute. Arnie`s official sked
claims this runs from 23 to 04 UT for Rio de Janeiro, so I have been
wondering whether there would be an overlap with REE Spain (q.v.)
which on weekdays goes off at 2304*. So I set the ATS-909 to 11669-USB
and waited for a carrier/tone to appear. No collision today, but does
it ever start on time at *2300? Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11670 is the current big spurblobber, rather than 13700 in the
mornings, likely the same transmitter. At 0020 I check for those:
circa 11633 and 11713, but not equally offset, minus 37 and plus 43.
Then I go back to the lower and find it spreads as far as 11625 =
minus 45. Almost readable listening in FM or AM modes, hum along with
the telltale F# tone above Middle C. Also JBA around 11593 but no more
on the plus side with inband QRM. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, July 28 at 0056, RHC S9+10/20 of dead air in English,
then some JBM and suptortion, while // 6145 is sufficient. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.5-WBFM, July 27 at 2112 UT, ``K-95.5, Tulsa`s New
Country`` as KWEN-FM, originally counterpart of KKNG in OKC, holds its
own against our 95.7 local tnx to tropo boost after heavy rain.
Differs slightly from WTFDA DB listing, ``K-95 FM`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Monday July 27 at 2203, REE with Justin Coe
introducing fusion of flamenco and jazz by Daniel García, in the
thrice-weekly English service --- this sounds very familiar, and is in
fact a re-run of the Monday July 6 broadcast.

11670, Mon July 27 at 2300, REE earworm IS post-sign-off from its
weakest frequency here, for Africa until 2304* while much stronger
off-the-back instead of -side 12030 for ME continues a bit longer.
Meanwhile only the two other frequencies for N&S America, 9690 & 11940
are still programming from 2300 with Portuguese. This is correcting
the WRTH July 20 Update which had all four frequencies for that until
2330, but typo for one of them as 2200-2230 M-F. I am really checking
whether a collision at 2300 with CUBA, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, July 27 at 2200, VOT English is on and NSS-less; 2249
recheck IS already playing after closing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 6993, July 28 at 0054, at least two JBA carriers beating
against each other. Time for another occasional log of presumed
propagation research stations in Florida. Terry Kruger sent me in
April 2016 the FCC CP and license pdf about this, but which I can no
longer find on the FCC website, under file number 0388-EX-PL-2015,
perhaps because the one-year experimental license expired on July 1,
2016 --- but if renewed perhaps with a different number. No hits on
the callsign either, WH2XWF, nor on ASTRA. Anyhow the pertinent info
then was:

Atmospheric & Space Technology Research Associates (ASTRA), LLC.

Station Locations
(1) Cross City (DIXIE), FL - NL 29-37-46; WL 83-06-28
(2) Hawthorne (PUTNAM), FL - NL 29-39-42; WL 81-57-26
(3) Inverness (CITRUS), FL - NL 28-47-58; WL 82-18-58
(4) Homosassa (CITRUS), FL - NL 28-44-55; WL 82-33-19
(5) Keystone (HILLSBOROUGH), FL - NL 29-50-40; WL 82-02-24

Each of them on the same four frequencies, all with 164 watts ERP:
4443, 4647, 6769, 6993 kHz. They may be running open carriers only
without IDs or anything, but too weak to be sure. Can anyone confirm
whether same ones are still going on 6993?

Closest hits on HF Underground are complaints about a carrier on 6993
QRMing a naughty pirate call on 6995 in 2016, 2017. No significant
hits on call or frequency at UDXF iog (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2044 monitoring: confirmed Monday
July 27 from 1800:47.5 on IRRS via BULGARIA 7290, usual VG signal at
UTwente SDR and also usual inevitable worble from 7291 and splash from
7280 & 7300. Open carrier at tune-in 1756; a few sex before 1759 JIP
fragment of talk about pandemic; few sex before 1800 cut to IRRS
sign-on with P O Box in Milano, Feature Story News from Washington,
headlines only before WOR start. Seems running intact until recheck
just before 1830, my last few words ironically chopped off after
``when I conclude`` before I can finish ``with a standard
disclaimer``. Nevertheless, it still applies.

Also confirmed UT Tue July 28 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, S5-S9 but JBA
direct; good at UTwente. Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

UNIDENTIFIED. 6965-AM, July 28 at 0055, JBA carrier, maybe trace of
music, pirate? Nothing in HFU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [and non]. CNR1 jammer survey, July 27 at 1352-1400: again
none found in the WOOB areas of 13, 12, 11, 10 or even 9 MHz; but
there is a poor inband signal on 9680 until 1400* timesignal and off.
Is it propagation, or has there been a cutback? N Korea is still
propagating poor-fairly on 11735, 11710, self-jamming on 9435, and S
Korea on this week`s jumparound 9095.

11440, an hour later at 1454 at least is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 11880, July 27 at 1455, S9+30 of open carrier, so CRI
Plus English relay via CUBA at 1500 seems promising tho did not get
around to evaluating. There had been reports of this missing, not only
from the canceled 14-15 hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11634-11635, July 27 at 0133, extremely distorted spurblob at
S5-S7 but loud, and tone also audible in FM mode; with similar sound
on source 11670 RHC transmitter, and more at 35-36 kHz intervals:
11706, 11742, 11776 vs Brasil 11780.

It so happens that `En Contacto` starts at 0135 UT Monday, Arnie with
variety of topix, including ``QSL en el aire`` to someone in Arequipa,
Perú for a report of --- 11670! NOTHING said about the spurs it
outputs! Arnie says this transmitter and antenna put out 4 megawatts
of ERP. Then another report from Brasil of someone hearing English on
15140 at 1900 --- and again no mention of the constantly defective
modulation there! And if a QSL on the Air is provided, does that mean
you don`t get a hard- or e-copy?? Axually listening on clear 11760;
also on 11800 which is suptorted; wiggle that patchcord! Somethings`
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 5150-USB, July 27 at 0127, JBA music vs HSNL. Per
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,69905.0.html
it`s Radio 48. This area just above Area 51 has become active for
pirates I need to check more often (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Despite heavy storms in western Kansas heading this way,
some ND beacons are audible vs the noise:

388-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0533 UT, OB --- pretty sure of this ID but no
matches in either list nor on adjacent frequencies; closest would be
OK, 388 in Okmulgee OK, 25 watts.

395-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0542 UT, ULS, 25 watts in Ulysses KS where the
storms are.

417-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0543 UT, IY, 25 watts in Charles CItY, Iowa; I
was tuned to 415-USB.

420-MCW kHz, July 27 at 0546 UT, PK, 25 watts at Olathe - Herbb KS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2044 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday July 27 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG at Austin TX KiwiSDR, close to
its aim, and at 0053 check also VG here, S9+20/30.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, VP S5-S7 here.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, VG at UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 from 0302 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5130, good
at Rochester SDR; here, S9/+10 including high storm noise level from
Kansas.

Also confirmed UT Mon July 27 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, JBA here;
inaudible on TWR SDRs Bonaire, DR, Boa Vista, but fair at Brasília,
good at Maine SDR! Next:

1800vUT Monday IRRS 7290 Bulgaria to WNW, 594-Italy
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

** U S A. 9955, July 27 at 1402, WRMI is still on with anti-ChiCom
comments from Freedom Synergy Radio, but gone at 1419 recheck. So it
seems running past 1400 weekdays is irregular, unintentional (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5050, July 27 at 0128, S9+30/40 of dead air and then
annoying fast busy signal for at least a minute before I get out of
there. Someone`s program feed by phone has failed to WWRB; at least
confirmed still on air UT Mondays and presumably also Sundays (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1540-, July 27 at 0147 UT, big low het to 1540.0 stations,
doubtless KGBC Galveston TX doing it again sporadically.

1560, July 27 at 0147 UT, Vietnamese in the mix but not dominant,
doubtless KGOW Bellaire TX; both Houston market; vs a Fox Sports Radio
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, July 27 at 0155:
nothing lower but a JJBBA het from 891 upon WLS, doubtless the
Algerian which makes it if any (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6970, July 27 at 0125, JBA AM carrier, maybe a pirate or
mixing product. Nothing recent on HFUnderground. With bonker QRM from
about 6973 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
