** ALGERIA [non]. 7295, April 8 at 0543, Arabic talk, not Qu`ran, as
RTA via FRANCE is scheduled this hour only. But strangely, also jammed
by rapid tone pips, or carriers beating, measured about 0.7 kHz both
above and below, circa 7294.3 and 7295.7. Nothing else scheduled here
worthy of jamming. Maybe by Ameriham p-o`d over this intrusion? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRIA. 6155, April 8 at 0549, classical music at S9/+10, better
signal than usual, but noisy, in the last remnant of SW programming
from this country, the token relay of Ö1 scheduled with 300 kW ND at
0500-0620 except Sat/Sun to 0610. Remember when the end of this used
to include a few minutes of news in English? Not any more.

But I go looking for the website (not included on Hitlist --- Alan?)
and finally find this for today at 7:33-7:52 am local time:
https://radiothek.orf.at/oe1/20200408/600688
Audio and playlist of this `Guten Morgen Österreich` segment starting
with Brahms. The transmission is on the news network but includes bits
of classical music apparently promoting what will be played in full
later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. 7810, April 7 at 2222, JBA talk vs S5-S6 noise level.
Unusual to hear anything here, but yes, it`s one of a multitude of
Sound of Hope frequencies; Aoki/NDXC shows 24 hours including the
single hour in Cantonese at 15-16, 1 kW via Miaoli, Taiwan site and of
course *jammed, surely what I am hearing instead, CNR1.

Looking for any other E Asian signals on 7 MHz band, finds JBA talk on
7395, which could be CNR2 via Xianyang 594 site or CRI Chinese via
Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imprisoning and brainwashing Uyghurs.

This week`s FRONTLINE on PBS is an excellent hour about this issue:
"China Undercover" New, 4/07/2020, Season 37 / Episode 18,
Investigative, Documentary, Politics, Public Affairs, Social Topic

"Frontline" delivers a special undercover report from China's
secretive Xinjiang region, where the communist regime has imprisoned
masses of Muslims and is testing sophisticated surveillance technology
on the population. Credits: Will Lyman (Narrator)

Also streamable, 54+ minutes:
https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/china-undercover/
altho wolfie laments it`s geoblocked from reaching Germany (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6145 >> // JBM 6000, UT Wed April 8 at 0001 tune-in, RHC
English already on amid Arnie on `DXers Unlimited` mit-week edition,
in fact closing at 0002. This segment is normally in the middle of
each English hour, like :25-:35 as in DX/SWL/MEDIA programs. RHC clox
must be way off. Was English axually running on these frequencies from
a semihour earlier? At 23-24 it would normally be on 5040 & 11880. Did
not get around to checking whether subsequent repeats were also askew,
at 01-07. Following DXUL, report from Puerto Rico on the COVID 19
situation there. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185, April 7 at 2211, no trace of even JBA carrier from
XEPPM. Manuel Méndez, Spain had reported it:

``6185, Radio Educación, Ciudad de México, back on air, heard
1820-1830, 06-04 via SDR Kiwi remote receiver in Brownsville, South
Texas, identification and songs.``

6185, April 8 at 0001, now I have a carrier, just barely? modulated,
as so often before.

6185, April 8 at 1725, I myself tune the Brownsville SDR, courtesy of
TWR, and find a fairly good and well-modulated signal in Spanish,
interview about economy, water supply in Mexicali, class warfare, 1730
song break, slightly off-frequency-minus as usual; which has to be
XEPPM during its secret daytime broadcast; why can`t they do so well
at night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Convoluted tropo blobs over OK forecast by Bill Hepburn,
so I bandscan from 1513 UT April 8: Lots of BAD signals on open
channels including RF 45, no doubt KOTV Tulsa, but only two are
decoding, from Tulsa market:

RF 28, 44-1 Ion
RF 20, 19-1 KQCW-HD during Dr Oz show. This one in solid until finally
starts to break up and lose out at 1705 UT. And BTW has *no*
subchannels, unusual waste of spectrum but assures its only program
can be as HD as possible (GLenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 7 at 2211, VP signal from VOT, JBA talk,
unusable but at least is on today. Alan Roe reported to WOR iogroup:

``Programming on the Voice of Turkey (at least in the English service,
I've not checked other languages yet) seems to be reduced to a 5
minute news programme and a repeat of "Turkey's Tourist Attractions"
with the rest of the 50/55 minutes comprising Turkish music without
announcements. Noted today (7 April during 1230 transmission on 15450
kHz) and also a couple of times over recent days when checked. I'm
assuming another casualty of the Covid-19 pandemic. Alan Roe,
Teddington, UK`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2028 monitoring: last two SWBCs:
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. What`s really on WRMIs, UT Wed Apr 8 at 0100?

5010 // 5850, music with BB IDs, Oldies?
5800, Taiwan in Spanish, maybe new show but missed hearing date
9395, RAE in Spanish only here; maybe to be multilingual
9455, Hal Turner
9955, Wavescan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, April 8 at 1359-1400+, no signal from WLCR via WBCQ,
nor on 13590 now registered starting at 1400. Are they keeping trying
to get the 500 kW monster to QSY?

9330, April 8 at 1708, now it`s on and audible but VP in English. Hard
to believe it`s even half-power 250 kW at 300 degrees as registered if
it were on 15105 at 15-19.

Neither WBCQ nor WLCR make it easy to find their basic SW schedule!
Finally reached this:
https://www.worldslastchance.com/wlc-radio-broadcast-schedule.html
which shows nothing but 9330 for unnamed WBCQ, but also what we know
is via Woofferton UK, in Arabic:
18-21 on 9800, 21-24 on 6015

Haven`t looked at AW`s twitfeed lately: just generic promotion;
hunkered down in FL and lately working on high-power spotlights,
another of his passions; and promoting UV light to kill virus (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15555-USB, April 7 at 2216, WJHR gospel huxter is still on
past 2200 but even propagating at S5 level; must benefit from a bit of
HF sporadic E (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

This report dispatched at 1753 UT April 8

OK, it’s not on HF and it’s not classical music… but those looking for English language news from Austria will find plenty of it on the bilingual (German/English) ORF domestic youth network fm4 streamed over the Internet from:

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.97-CUSB, April 7 at 1420 tune-in past 1435+, JBA
carrier direct over the almost all-water path from Esperanza to Enid,
as I have not been able to detect for some time amid several special
LRA-36 transmissions; it`s about equivalent to 15825 WWCR normal
signal now without any sporadic-E boost.

By 1452 I`m on the Campo Brasil KiwiSDR for poor partially readable
signal: mainly two YL voices, with saludos; 1456 song; 1502 contact
info; then my pause for breakfast of waffle; 1531 music; 1536 echo
feedback announcement, deliberate? more song; 1540 ID, contact info;
1552 fading up a bit stronger, song; 1556 full ID, and bit of English
in a song about telephone; 1603 sounds like an old-time-radio clip,
1606 gone and apparently not coming back. Anyway, used up my 60-minute
per day limit on this SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. Correxion: the UT Friday time is 2005 not 2300; fixed:
Updating WORLD OF RADIO times on World FM, and webcasts, with DST off
in NZ as of April 5: all shifted one real UT hour later to: Thursday
0930 and 2300 UT; UT Friday 2005. Unfortunately due to my current
produxion schedule on Thursdays, the first two airings there are
almost a week old. Lots of other good programming; see:
http://www.worldfm.co.nz/sched-db.php?offset=0
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SCOTLAND [non]. Correcting date on this: April 5, not 6, fixed:
5850 // 5010, UT Sun April 5 at 0100-0200, `Encore`
classical music reconfirmed on both WRMI frequencies...
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11670, April 5 at 2152+, I mentioned as a poor signal of RHC
among others --- but as noted by wb and HFCC, Spain is now on 11670 in
A-20 like previous A-seasons instead of 11685 in Bs, for Africa. Not
clear yet whether Cuba have totally left 11670, or at least not
overlapping with Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TAIWAN [non]. 7780 // 9395 // 5010, UT Tue April 7 at 0201, RTI
Spanish on three WRMI frequencies, but 5800 has gone off. Opening
announces that it`s the test program for Tuesday March 17!! Still
nothing new on these relays. All programs (ahem) should announce
original recording or airdates so we can keep track of them. Usual
delayed start following fragment of BZ ID and about a minute of music
before off-timesignal and opening. Subject already COVID 19
originating in Hubei province, ``continental China``, refuting Big Lie
that it`s a ``People`s Republic`` rather than a Commie dictatorship.

BTW, Dr Fauci, it`s Hoo-bay, not Hoo-by, but everything else he says
is of the greatest reliability. Should you rely on forever impeached
acting president Drumpf instead of him, you`ll be SORRY or even dead
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Amarillo TX; seldom logged here at 400 km. Still gone is Stillwater
OK, SW from 255 (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7780, UT Tue April 7 at 0130, WRMI with a ``pilot program``
of music; intro gives what sounds like a callsign to be looked up on
FB --- but not if you can`t be sure of the letters or join the
disgraced group. Maybe WVZJ or something fonetikaly similar. Also
promises a ``surprise`` at the end of the program, so I retune at 0157
and hear nothing but music, until, surprise, cut off for Rudy Espinal
ID at 0159.5. What is this? I heard the same thing exactly two weeks
ago on UT Tue March 24. WRMI skedgrid shows Wavescan at 0130 Tue not
only on 5010 // 5850 as reconfirmed, but also 7780 which is the way I
entered it on DX/SWL/MEDIA programs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Level 5 strong tropo bullseye right over central OK
predicted by Hepburn, so I hasten to bandscan, April 7 from 1545 UT.
Almost all ``open`` DX channels have a BAD signal on them, in the
repack range, plus 45 no doubt still KOTV Tulsa; except nothing on 34
and 9; and two `local` OKC channels are BAD, caused by DX QRM, 7 and
15. 15 would most likely be KSNW Wichita, ex-45. 7: full-powers still
exist in Hays and Pittsburg KS; Amarillo, Austin, Odessa, Tyler TX
plus numerous low-powers; nothing in OK except KOCO.

I sit on RF 32 which shows signs of reaching decode threshold, and it
does briefly at 1620, with a CW 33 bug in LR, and PSIP as 33-1 KDAF-DT
--- that`s 780 kW in Dallas TX; gone before I can check out its
subchannels.

RF 26, April 7 at 1625, this one decodes as 24-1 FOX, which isn`t very
helpful, but must be 350 kW from the opposite direxion, KSAS-TV
Wichita; subs are 24-2 TBD and 24-3 Comet; contrary to W9WI.com which
has 24-2 as GetTV. The only other 24-1 Fox on RF 26 is Macon GA, no
way here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
