Many 6180 stations but nothing else scheduled at this hour. By 0057 UT Sept 9, 6180 is OK // still distorted 11780. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

CANADA. 14670-CUSB, Sept 8 at 2142, no signal from CHU, and have also found it inaudible several daytime chex when it ought to propagate even under current conditions. 7850-CUSB is audible now and better in the evenings. At 0048 Sept 9, 3330-CUSB is also audible, and maybe a JBA carrier on 14670? I wonder if the higher frequency has been down, as one of their frequencies has been out of order before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

My observations last few days of VOV missing from WHRI 7315 relays including English at 0000 --- nor any Spanish at 0046 Sept 9 --- are now explained by Jeff White on this week`s AWR Wavescan, after quoting one of my previous logs of it wondering whether that would continue under WBCQ ownership:``We have information that Voice of Vietnam relays from South Carolina, WHRI are going to be discontinued, most likely, as the station is planning to probably eliminate its shortwave broadcasts altogether, and it may do shortwave [sic] broadcasts to the United States via some local AM and FM stations`` This presumably comes from recent virtual-only B-20 HFCC conference.

UNIDENTIFIED. 4940, Sept 9 at 0058, music is JBA maybe S7 between high storm noise level [HSNL] crashes, so looks worth checking on TWR Bonaire SDR: yes, like 3 nights ago, but not 1 or 2 nights ago, good S8-S9 and soon into monolog by preacher in Spanish, starts saying he is quarantined, right into biblical references. He keeps going with no breaks past 0200, but his background noise surges whenever he pauses even briefly: turn off the AVC!We really need an ID or at least some clue where this is coming from, so I keep half-listening until 0205 when that SDR bumps me off, but MEGO, altho near 100% readable, I am *not* going to pay rapt attention to this long-winded gospel huxter. Then try other SDRs: no good at DR, Boa Vista, Pardinho, Santiago; and Bogotá won`t work. 0237 try Bonaire again and get back on as he is *still* going, mentions Coronavirus, etc., a bit weaker at S6-S7. At 0259 suddenly stops sermonizing, NO ID!!! But over to YL plugging the lamontanacolombia.com website again, some credits, and then starts narrating `Capítulo 12` of something, mentioning ``Narnia`` several times; hmmm? Back on at 0346; still going with dialog. Enough for now, but it might keep going late into the night or all-night. See my previous discussion under PERU or unID: it could be Christian station Radio San Antonio, Perú, or something new established by Ethnic Radio to evangelize natives in Colombia, Venezuela; but all in Spanish so far, testing?

** COLOMBIA [and non]. 4940, Sept 10 at 0244, via TWR Bonaire, JBA carrier only, which may be R. San Antonio, Peru, eclipsed by the new nameless Colombian? when it`s on but not tonight nor later. Several monitors and I find it connected with LV de tu Conciencia, and one even heard an ID for its inactive frequency 6010 probably from an old recording, but nothing definite about real name or location now, remote Puerto Lleras like 6010 & 5910 were? Rafael Rodríguez says he has no info about that yet. I`ve also asked a Canadian charity backer but no reply. Alan Pennington, BDXC-UK recorded via Bonaire a *2300 sign-on Sept 9 with no ID but 3rd verse of truncated Colombian NA.
4940 is back on, Sept 11 at 0039 check via Bonaire, S9 with carrier -4 to -5 Hz on SynchAM, preacher droning. 0045 into mariachi song, but this is not Mexico. After that preacher says he is confined to home because of coronavirus, in April. Sounds like the same spiel I heard a few nights ago. BTW, Brandon Jordan found the other weak carrier, Peru? on 4939.71. I never hear any such het but a much closer SAH now. So are they deliberately obliterating fellow Christians? Evangelicals do not get along with Catholix (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SCOTLAND [non]. 5800, UT Thu Sept 10 at 0300, `Encore` on WRMI, new time Brice Avery is unaware of, and indeed it is not yet a prepeat but a repeat of previous weekend`s I already heard including a Passacaglia (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

** CANADA. Richard Langley reminds us that CHU has a page about its outages, showing none on Sept 8 when I was not hearing 14670-CUSB: https://nrc.canada.ca/en/chu-short-wave-station/ but it was last down August 13-14 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15370, Sept 9 at 2051 in choking Arabic, RHC is back here ex-extraviation to 15340 the day before, S8-S9 with hum. Something`s not wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.058v, Wed Sept 9 at 2200, VOT English to us is already in news so opened a bit early? Tuned-in via UTwente, S9+50! on the meter but sounds much weaker and noisy as if a thunderstorm right over Holland --- but Blitzortung shows the only storms in Europe now are in the Gulf of Bothnia, and western Mediterranean between islands of Spain and Italy. Maybe it`s a defect in VOT`s own transmission, or QRN to the Ankara-Emirler STL? No storms over Turkey either. I hopefully keep monitoring in case `Letterbox` make a comeback. After news: 2207 very brief headlines from Foreign Press [no Turkish press today]; 2209 COVID-19 PSA; 2210 This Day in History; 2213 Did You Know That? 2216 multi-lingual ID reel which takes about 2 minutes, what a time-filler! It would be more helpful if each language were introduced by its English name, to help us learn to distinguish them, especially the similar Turkic ones. 2218 into Turkish songs, and onward, so yet again no mailbag. Something`s always awry at Ankara, erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2050 monitoring: confirmed Wed Sept 9 from 2100:19 on WBCQ 7490.06v, JBA.

** CANADA. 14670-CUSB, Sept 9 at 1413, CHU is on and audible, unlike yesterday daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer survey Sept 9 at 1403: none higher than 11460 & 11440 & 10920 JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 11175-USB, Sept 9 at 1419, US military drill with alfanumerix such as 4XQSQQU, same voice not only reverbing but offset by a few seconds, with background noise. 1421 ``This is Toolbox, out``. 1422, ``Rough Gym/Jim, this is Ironman, on 8992``! ``How copy my station?`` -- no answer and this is still on 11175. At 1440 ``Toolbox`` again on 11175-USB and now I also hear weaker 8992-USB, but not on two receivers to confirm duplication. At 1510 also hearing same thing on 15016-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2050 monitoring, next: 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 Financial support may be sent via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com - not necessarily US funds as PP will convert One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, WOR) ** U S A. 850, Sept 9 at 0629 UT, KOA Denver is on tonight in C2CAM break. I notified NRC and IRCA that it seemed off the night before, Sept 8 and also Sept 6; Paul Walker, Laramie WY, replied, ``No Glenn, incorrect. KOA has not been off at all and has been operating as normal during the times you mention, according to a KOA engineer I spoke to. AM conditions up here have been interesting lately. I've had a few stations that should be strong be pretty weak and I've heard stations I don't normally hear being present.`` I`m still not convinced; tho it is hard to prove a negative. ND 50 kW KOA at under 500 miles is totally dominant here, yet I heard no trace of it, when conditions were `normal` as far as I could tell --- certainly no auroral blackout (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VIETNAM. 9730, 7280, 7220, Sept 9 at 1600, VOV in English is still on SW: first trying S Korea KiwiSDR, 9730 poor with lo het and Chinese CCI; 7280 Chinese also mixing with VOV English; 7220 JBA English only. Aoki/NDXC shows both 9730 & 7280 also with Sound of Hope from Taiwan at this time, so jammed of course, Commies vs Commies! CRI in Russian also sked at 16 on 9730, so it gets jammed too. Better frequency management, such as avoiding China would make VOV more successful a SW broadcaster. 7280 always has a bigsig into UTwente splashing upon IRRS/WOR on 7290 Mondays at 1800, so how about now at 1600? Yes, VG S9+15 signal without the CCCCCCI; 9730 is even better, S9+20 but with some hum, AMSynch measuring it on 9729.947v; while 7220 on different beam is poorly audible. 1615 into mailbag, with 75th anniversary congrats from Pakistanis; NOTE! Says since September 1 these broadcasts are *temporarily* off due to ``technical problems``: 7315 to eastern North America [WHRI], and 12020 [sic] to Indonesia! 1621 music break, closing offering eQSL for reports to englishsection@vov.vn 1627 dead air break before next language. I did not get around to checking 12019- and 9839+ before they would have finished total span scheduled 1000-1530. Meanwhile, Tony Molloy forwards this VOV story which does not mention anything about SW, boding ill: https://en.vietnamplus.vn/radio-voice-of-vietnam-targets-internet-users-with-new-digital-platform/182436.vnp ``“Untold stories”, a special program marking 75th anniversary of VOV's English Service --- Monday, September 7, 2020 | 12:42:00 (VOVWORLD) - The Voice of Vietnam national radio station started broadcasting from Hanoi on September 7th, just 5 days after the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, now the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. The English program was among the first foreign language programs broadcast overseas on that day. Since then, September 7 has always been a great occasion to recall VOV’s history and development... https://vovworld.vn/en-US/sunday-show/untold-stories-a-special-program-marking-75th-anniversary-of-vovs-english-service-899367.vov via Dr Hansjoerg Biener 9 September 2020`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 4940, Sept 9 at 0357, continued from previous report, via TWR Bonaire SDR, outro previous `Lecciones de la Historia` as from Fuerza de Paz, bit of music, NO ID, 0400 into sermonizing citing I Corinthians. Final check on own R75 at 0625: still there JBA talk vs HSNL. Also reported by Lúcio Otávio Bobrowiec, much earlier: ``Unid. 4940 kHz; 08-09/09, 2348-0108 pop music, slow spanish music, male in spanish “programacion”, slow spanish music, from 0030 until 0108 music sounding like religious, slow, but at 0035 female announcements and 0045 male in spanish.
