From: RAEDeutsch <raedeutsch@yahoo.com.ar>

Dear friend! We have just been informed that the program scheduled for
today unfortunately not broadcast due to a severe storm, so a new date
is planned for it. Pity! LG from rainy Buenos Aires and have a nice
weekend! Rayén Braun - German editorial team`` --- what`s LG?

At 2150 I recheck Brasil remote, just in case it came on in time for
English, but nothing. Some hours later I consult Accuweather for
conditions at Esperanza: ``Current Weather 9:05 PM: -31°C, RealFeel®
-60°, Air Quality Fair, Wind SW 87 km/h, Wind Gusts 120 km/h, Cloudy``
--- that is certainly extreme, but the people and the equipment are
stuck there anyway, so why not broadcast? Was there damage to rhombic
antenna? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 29 at 2134, RNA is S4-S7 and suptorted. Don`t
they know at Rodeador Park site, or don`t they care? Hardly the only
SW station which keeps transmitting despite severe defects, reflecting
very poorly on the station and the nation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, Aug 29 at 2342, RHC in Spanish // 11760. Checking
since Rick Barton, AZ, heard English on 11670, Aug 23 at 2320. That
hour is supposed to be on 7385 and 5040. I do hear it poorly vs HSNL
on 5040, but only a JBA carrier on 7385, surely something else,
probably TIBET tho WHRI is also registered. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EUROPE. Free Radio Service Holland: S8-S9 but noisy on both
5789.910v and 7700.136v via UTwente at 1755 rock music, 1757 as 200th
broadcast, acknowledging web receiver listener in Buenos Aires.
Supposed to be running until 2100. Is site really in Netherlands?
Plenty of private stations are now licensed, but this remains pirate?
Sorry, but I would rather listen to `Pipedreams` $ tereo organ music as
usual Sundays 17-19 UT, and `With Heart and Voice` at 19-20 via WYSU
webcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 9670.00439v, re my report of FTIOM & UBMP test via Channel
292, Friday Aug 28: ``...But fading up by 1725 to S9+15 peak on
9670.00439 locked, almost tolerable, back down to S7. Is anyone else
listening anywhere with better reception? Glenn`` --- Dave Kenny, UK,
replies Aug 29 to the WOR iog:

``Reception on 9670 was very good on SDRs in Ireland and in the west
of England yesterday. I also checked on a couple of Spanish receivers
where it was OK too – but not as good as Ireland/UK. Twente is far too
close for the skip at 9 MHz and the Lisbon receiver seems fairly deaf
and noisy. 73s Dave`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sun Aug 30 at 0000, The Mighty KBC via
Nauen, GERMANY, is opening at only S5-S7. Kraig Krist now confirms
that from next week, the Sunday-only 0000-0200 broadcast will revert
to 5960. I check that now and hear nothing, tho CNR 100 kW ND from
Urumqi, EAST TURKISTAN, land of ChiCom persecution of Uyghurs, is
still in HFCC from 2330 until 1800, and presumably still
off-frequency-minus, a CCI problem further east, especially circa
Europe, but KBC won`t move (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7254.9v, Aug 30 at 0558, again no signal from VON.
Wolfgang Bueschel says at 0851 Aug 30, ``7254.9v 06-11 UT requested -
vague imprecise -, nothing heard here in past days, empty channel this
Aug 30 morning also`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 515-MCW kHz, Aug 30 at 1451 daytime, NDB PN Ponca City is
still OFF; 341-MCW, EI locally Enid is still on but JBA. Yesterday
afternoon could hear EI on the N/S shortwire, but not on the magloop
which may be having problems (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U K [non]. 12095, UT Sun Aug 30 at 0431, BBCWS via OMAN, VG to
UTwente at 320 degrees, with première of new show until November,
`Comedians vs The News`. Alan Roe found the only other SW frequencies
would be 13580 also Oman, which goes out at 10 degrees and much
weaker; and 9915 via Madagascar, which I was trying before 0430 but
not as good on remotes altho it should be the only possibility
directly into North America if checked. The co-hosts say they are a
Canadian Lesbian married couple, also bi-cultural obviously from their
names. Their two other foreign guests this week are from India and
Mexico, as they satirize current news; fun show, and can be found on
podcasts via https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/w3ct0x37 where Alan says
he also will have to get it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2049 monitoring: confirmed Sat Aug 29 at 1949
UT at Algeria, so just started, on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, S7
via KiwiSDR in nearby Warrenton.

** U S A. (5085) $ tereo WTWW-2 webcast, UT Sun Aug 30 starting at 0026
after hamstuff, anonymous theatre organ music show from Bob Heil in
Belleville IL. Yes, he never mentions any program name, so I still
call it `Theatre Organ [NOT] in the Ozarx`. or TONITO. Most of this
show is ``virtual`` performance by Len Larsen(sp?) who sent some kind
of memory card which Bob inserts into his own organ to run it, pulling
stops, etc., but without keys going up and down. LL had previously
sampled the best thorgans around the country for each simulated
instrument! Runs until 0056.5, back to rock.

After this at 0100-0200 UT Sundays, I habitually listen to `Encore`
classical music, VG via WRMI 5850 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5950, Aug 30 at 0601, SMTV via WRMI with double audio feed
echoing; has happened before, wonder how? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9265V, Sat Aug 29 at 1356, WINB playing Dixieland, `Saints
Go Marchin` In`, 1359 ID distorted. As always the frequency is
constantly wobbling, as no one else ever mentions. Is on air mornings,
only weekends (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4840, Sun Aug 30 at 0604, S9+10/20 of dead air again from
WWCR, while 3215 & 5890 are Brother HyStairical. Happens over and over
in nightmiddle, automation misprogramming? as if, zzz, no one at 1300
WWCR Ave know or care (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Aug 30 at 0607:
only 621, presumed Canaries; not even 846 Kiritimati TP (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING

Nina Jankowicz (Wilson Center): "Imagine leading a media organization
and insinuating your reporters are spies. I have colleagues who are
being forced to return to dangerous environments because USAGM won't
renew their visas. They will be at risk because they've done critical,
truthful reporting while at VOA. These people have USG security
clearances and have been heavily vetted, usually multiple times. They
join USAGM because they're committed to bringing reliable information
to environments where it's hard to get. Pack's statements are
endangering USAGM employees around the globe."

Discussion with a member of Radio Casa by Whatsapp 

Good Morning. On your website, it is written that you are an experimental AM broadcaster. Do you intend to start a definitive licensed AM station? Start with a frequency in MW or SW?
For two years we have been trying to license to broadcast on SW 
But the Ministry of Communications is no longer licensing new broadcasters in AM.It's quite complicated
Why do they want those in the am for extended FM?
Precisely because of the migration even
Nor are the transmitters factory manufacturing Am
And do you find 41m and 75m interesting?
Just to let it work not to make a profit
BT transmitters said the Ministry of Communications has a project for the company to do tests with transmitter  of SW with the DRM system
In official terms do you have an experimental status for SW?
In practice, yesIn official terms it's illegal

** GERMANY. 9670, UT Sun Aug 23 at 0400, Bill Tilford experimenting
with a 10 kW ND relay via Channel 292 of his FTIOM and UBMP. Into
Maine, propagation from Europe seems fine, e.g. 9420 Greece S7-S9. On
9670, hardly anything audible at UTwente over all-dark, minimum-MUF,
too-close path; via SDR in Maine he`s detectable at 0403 with
multi-lingual intro, but JBA VP S4-S5, unusable. 0440 recheck,
inaudible. He was hoping to serve North America; maybe better eastward
into the dayside. I reminded the 900 members of the WOR iog about this
at 0340 as imminent, but not a single other report received.

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-CUSB, LRA36 publicized a big broadcast for Sat
Aug 29, alternating Spanish and German at 1500-2030, then English at
2030-2200. But: Not a trace from 1500 past 1540 on any Brazilian or
Argentine SDR I can access. Is anyone hearing it anyhow? There has
been a propagation disturbance as long predicted. Note admission of
low power 800 watts. WRTH 2020 said ``1 x 10 kW (operated at 1.5 kW).
F.pl: increase output to 10 kW`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR iog)

Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, replies at 1612: ``Hi, transmission
suspended due to bad weather. Best 73,s`` (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 6134.8, Aug 29 at 0554, weak signal sounds like Brasilian
talk, but cuts off air 0555* before I can measure it exactly; presumed
R. Aparecida. Nothing audible on 9630v by 0558 while RVM is audible,
q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. 5939.5, Aug 29 at 0557, music and soon announcement in

and not too much 5935 WWCR now. Within a few Hz of 5939.500 producing
equal hets, SSB tuned to 5939 and 5940.

9664.808, Aug 29 at 0559, Brazilian talk at S4-S6 from

the mortality rate was under 3%; from echoey venue.

Still no 13700 at 1352, but by 1454, 13700 is on and 13740 is off.
Nominal skeds for these two: 13700, 13-15 to San Francisco; 13740,

Greenville [SC] in it's main lobe. Indianapolis kills them in their
