** CUBA. 6100, Sept 1 at 0612, RHC English is S9+30 but JBM; 6145 is
S9+20 but sufficiently modulated. Last night`s parity is long-gone.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13740, Sept 1 at 1837, RHC Kriyol at S9+10/20, // 11760. And
not on 15140 where it is supposed to be with 13740 off air between 14
and 21, 11760 off between 18 and 21. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9v, Sept 1 at 0610, again zero signal from VON to
begin another month. It`s been so sporadic that we do not yet draw any
conclusions of a permanent QRT. Besides,

11769.894, Sept 1 at 1519, S6 VP signal in African? language, typical
VON offset, vs. RHC 11760 splash out to plus/minus 20 kHz. 1859
recheck, still a JBA carrier. Wolfgang Bueschel agrees:

``11769.894 kHz, Voice of Nigeria from Abuja, requested as Igbo
service. Talk by male presenter. At 1620 UT on Sept 1st. Proper S=9+30
or -46dBm powerful signal into Europe today. [selected SDR options,
span 12.5 kHz RBW 15.3 Hertz] (wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Sept
1)`` and four days earlier:

``11769.893 kHz, Voice of Nigeria from Abuja, probably in English. At
1804 UT on Aug 28. Sideband splash signal disturbtion of S=9+35 or
-39dBm powerhouse, from adjacent CRI Beijing in Germany, via big bcast
center in Kashgar, western China {East Turkistan}. Noted in Liverpool
England and Netherlands Perseus server-net. [selected SDR options,
span 12.5 kHz RBW 15.3 Hertz] (wb df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug
28)`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 31 at 2200 and still 2220, no signal from VOT
English to us. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.

9830, Sept 1 at 2200, VG S9+40 VOT signal at UTwente as YL yet again
opens this broadcast claiming it is at 1230 on 15450. Now it may well
be necessary to do one English broadcast per day at mid-afternoon, and
play it back for all the subsequent English times. But they should say
so, so at least the sign-ons make sense. Of course, we`re lucky they
are even uttering the correct current season time and frequency for
the original. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2049 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday
September 1 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, VG S9/+20 at UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Tue Sept 1 at 0330 on WRMI 5800, VG at TWR Bonaire
S9+5/15. I leave it on in the background but notice about 0350 that
music is playing! ME-ish world music fill, so for some reason dumped
out of this new WORtime well before it finished. Rarely does a week go
by without some problem with WOR playbax, so we are fortunate with
redundancies.

** VANUATU. 11835 & 7890, Sept 1 at 0614, R. Vanuatu X 4 and X 3 are
both but JBA carriers tonight. Propagation disturbed (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 711.0, Sept 1 at 0616, JBA carrier while no TA`s are
audible, not even 621 altho there is HSNL from OKC area which is being
flooded by up to 8 inches of rain in some suburbs. But it`s strong
enough to get a rough DF separable from 710s, as ENE/WSW, which rules
out Cuba, and probably too clockwise for Morocco either. What
Unitedstatesians are along that axis? Surely not the biggies WOR NY or
KSPN LA; how about KBMB Black Canyon City [Phœnix] AZ? There is no
longer a 710 in Sonora. XEDP in Chihuahua used to be off-minus by an
odd amount but not for a year or two (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 11900, Aug 31 at 1354, south Asian music and then talk
by YL in unrecognizable language; S7-S9, outstanding SSOB except for
the Cubans and nons. 1359-1400*, Reach Beyond, Australia, sign-off in
English sounding more `merican than `strine, not Ecuadorian. Now to
figure out language: Day 2 = Monday at 1345-1400 Aoki/NDXC shows it is
Cha; EiBi shows CHG --- I guess they both refer to Chhattisgarhi as in
WRTH 2020 but now outdated B-19 sked had no such DOW, TOD, nor
frequency for it.

But the revised A-20 update as of May 26 confirms it. Now, where and
how many Chhattisgarhi speakers are there? EiBi`s readme.txt shows:
``CHG Chhattisgarhi: India-Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Bihar (13m) [hne]``
So there we have three different abbrs. for this obscure language but
spoken by more than the population of e.g. Illinois, who must be
Christianized!

11825, but wait, there`s more: Mon Aug 31 at 1449, gospel huxter in
English also bigsig S7-S9. While E Asian signals like CNR1 jammers are
JBA carriers. This is RBA daily at 1430-1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. 7850-USB, Aug 31 at 0610, CHU is weak, but even
weaker is CCI from 2-way USB almost same frequency, maybe Brazilian or
Spanish. Not first time such intrusion has been detected (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, Aug 31 at 1355-1359: none audible in the
16s, 15s, 14s, 13s, 12s, until JBA carriers: 11500, 11460, 11440,
11170, 11150, 11120, 11100; none in the 10s; 9300; finally 9215 music
achieves S3-S5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Aug 31 at 0238, no signal from R. Progreso, quick check
on TWR Boa Vista just as I am mentioning its absence on WOR.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6145 & 6100, UT Mon Aug 31 at 0616, RHC `DXers Unlimited`,
Arnie`s prop info seems a bit dated, then outro as the mit-week
edition, so despite `Ed Newman` then pointing out that there are two
per week, must have been playing the wrong/old one, and 0619 into his
`Mailbag`. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But the two last
frequencies on air this late both enjoy good modulation (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** ISRAEL [non]. (9955), WRMI webcast UT Mon Aug 31 at 0400 I check
what`s on it after SW turns off: news all about Israel, Gaza, i.e.
Israel Radio or whatever they call it now as scheduled for a full hour
on WRN web/satcast. But by 0450 or so, wild world music with WRMI ID
by BB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9, Aug 31 at 0614, once again no signal from VON, not
on 9689.9 nor 11769.9; altho the latter is still being reported in
their evenings. But 11770 at 1714 Aug 31 via UTwente only Chinese
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2049 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday August 31 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct but some deep fades:
this week #13 transmitter does not dump off air before 0100.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 31 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+10 via
UTwente; also on WRN webcast.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 31 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+20 via
UTwente; and also for second week surprise 5800, S9+10/20 via TWR Boa
Vista KiwiSDR.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 31 from 0259.5 on Area 51 webcast; and WBCQ
5130, S3-S7 via Rochester SDR; closing 0328.5 on 5130 direct S9+10
including HSNL.

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 31 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, S9+10/20, no
jamming, better than where aimed at TWR Bonaire and Boa Vista. 0358
Maine SDR at S9/+10. As always cuts off the air by 0400* before ID can
finish. See also below for 9955 webcast 0400+. Next:

Also confirmed UT Mon Aug 31 from 1800.6 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria;
S9+20 via UTwente with Synch readout as 72900003.71 Hz. Autonotch
checked somewhat reduces the 7291 warble, but no way to get rid of the
heavy splash from 7280 Vietnam and 7290 Iran. Continues intact past
1810. However, tuned in earlier: *1755 carrier on; 1758.4 bumps up
power so quieter; 1758.8 JIP WOR already running for a few minutes in
Belarus [non] item; 1800 interrupted for quick IRRS ID only, FSN
headlines, 1800.6 restart WOR. Next:

0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 5800 NEW to SSE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

** U S A. 5950, Aug 31 at 0620, SMTV repetitive music beat suspected
of double audio feed but not so obvious until 0623 talk which is
horribly duplicated, or is it triplicated. Evidently no one at Okee is
monitoring, like no one beyond cares to listen to this cult, as it was
thus 24 hours ago; and also in between on 15770 as Wolfgang Bueschel
noted:

``15770even WRMI, two time double echo program, SMTV - echo some 1 1/2
second audio later repeat, S=9+20dB at 1610 UT on Aug 30; in Detroit
MI, Rochester NY, and Aberdeen NJ US states Perseus server net (wb
df5sx, wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Aug 30)`` --- I could not find this by
searching on 15770 since he attached `even` to it! See also ISRAEL
[non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15825, Aug 31 at 1451, WWCR-1 S9+10, while an hour before
was a JBA carrier. Sporadic E has hit it; DXMAP shows some MUFs to 27
MHz, altho not directly between us. By now it will be a rare day for
any FM DX but at least had a few good openings this summer (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9-kHz JBA MW carrier search, Aug 31 at 0637 UT; only 846
presumed TP KIRITIMATI, and 621 presumed TA CANARY ISLANDS. No 711,
while 710 is dominated by on-frequency Rebelde CUBA // 5025 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
