** BRAZIL [non]. 4885, Dec 29 at 0456, R. Clube do Pará still off
overnight and presumably overday too, leaving 60m even more of a vast
wasteland (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CANADA. 346 MCW kHz, Dec 29 at 0736, dash and YXL, 500-watt NDB at
SiouX Lookout, Ontario, JB penetrates the S9 local noise level. [and non] 332 MCW kHz, Dec 29 at 0737, dash and QT, 1000 watt NDB at
Thunder Bay, Ontario, also JBA mix from IC, 400 watts from Wichita KS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also USA ** CUBA. 4765, Dec 29 at 0453, R. Progreso, S9+20/30 but suptorted and
vs CODAR swirshes. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Dec 29 at 2136, no signal direct in English from
R. Cairo sesquihour; something`s always amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. First as UNIDENTIFIED: 11514.9, Dec 29 at 1530, JBA
music at S3/S4 direct. Still no other reports of this since my last
log Dec 25, so I check several remotes for it: nothing at UTwente,
Bandung, Qatar, nor Oita, Japan. In California the omni KFS gets it at
S6/S7, while inaudible on their NW antenna but agrees on offset
display of a trace; it`s JBA but I keep listening there to 11515 -96
Hz = 11514.904. Seems to be nothing but music, mainly soprano voice,
past 1700. By 1716, it`s a smidgen stronger, S7. Guess at Turkish
jammer vs Dengê Gel, but not that kind of music. Still same offset
into KFS at 1910, S7 now YL popsong in English. What is this??? Further chex, *still* audible on this off-frequency, at least into
KFS: 1957 hi-pitched YL voice speaking, English? mentions numbers?
goes past 2000 with no break. Next check 2147, still music S7/8. And
at 2306 really inaudible but KFS still synchs on 11515 -96 Hz. Meanwhile I got replies on the WOR iog from Lucas Bandura: ``Hikari
FM, Arizona pirate. Moved from 11289.4 kHz`` and from Dan Robinson:
``Yes, operator of the former Pushka and Russian named station, now
Hikari FM was awaiting some equipment parts to make the move to this
frequency area``. When first reported on 11289.4, I checked but never heard. I belatedly
check HFU for reports about this: on Dec 24 there were reports on
11520. A QSL of Dec 19 for 11289 said 10 watts and soon would be on
11520. Ex-6200 AM, where I was still alert for anything at night, but
nothing lately. He once claimed to be just across the border from Arizona in NW
Sonora. That might discourage the FCC from seeking him, true or not
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PUERTO RICO. 391 MCW kHz, Dec 29 at 0441 UT, ND beacon DDP, with
longish pauses between repeats. That`s more like it, real DX, from San
Juan - Dorado. I still have plenty local noise on LW, but this gets
thru it. Last time logged was Dec 30, 2021, almost exactly one biyear
ago. DXinfocentre lists as 1 kW, RNA as 2 kW, a period of 10.14
seconds with 6-second pauses. It seems there are hardly any other
beacons still existing in the Caribbean, e.g. Cayman Islands 415 kHz.
More logs this opening under CANADA, USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Dec 29 at 2308, VG into Maryland remote, token
English from SNR, Justin Coe announces that he is retiring from SNR
after 33+ years. Besides the external service he has had programs on
several domestic RNE networx. Appreciates his colleagues, management,
unions; and especially listener Alan Roe for program publicity.
External service has shrunk to only 12 people covering all the
languages; English will continue by Amy Egan and Marilyn Quintana. We
had already been hearing very little from JC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.004+, Dec 29 at 2303, VOT is not off the
air, VG S9+30/40 into UTwente, excepts cuts off air for less than a
minute during news, back on first with dead air, then picking up. 2337
`Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`, topic foods good for lung
health, starting with apples, bananas. 2343 music. 2351 s/off with
totally wrong schedule +3 hours off. 2353 IS. 2354* chopoff uncovering
XJPBS, only S9+5/15 in Chinese from East Turkistan, land of
imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Wellbrook loop manages to audiblize some ND beacons vs local
noise level, not the shortwire, Dec 29 at 0432-0443 UT: 251, AM, Amarillo TX
275, GUY - at first seemed MSY or MUY, but it`s merely GUYmon OK
326, MA, Midland TX
375, RU, - nothing listed or similar. RUE in Arkansas has been sending
only RU, but on 379. Did I notedown wrong frequency?
408, JDM, Colby - Wheatfield KS
See also CANADA; PUERTO RICO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2223 monitoring: confirmed Friday
December 29 at 2149 the 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9+10
into UTwente and no QRM. (There are still some reports of very lowpower
UK stations on 1323.) Also confirmed Friday December 29 at 2304 the 2300 first SWBC on WRMI

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0230 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week to William T Hassig, Mt Prospect IL, for a generous
check to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds via PayPal to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, Dec 29 at 0455, WWCR, S9+10/20 but undermodulated.
Something`s not right at Nashville; certainly better than sometimes
dead air there; or worse if not into gospel huxterism (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Dec 29 at
0444-0450: 684, 711, 774-2, 837, 855, 882, 891, 999, 1089, 1107, 1269.
I normally run the R75 ``wide-open`` but this time with only Preamp 1
instead of 2, which may have helped marginally vs splash. 1269 is
unusual; per WRTH 24, biggestsigs are 100 kW Kuwait, 50 kW Iran (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11550, Dec 29 at 1612, VOA Korean with heavy musical QRM
into UTwente, checking this after no 11514.9 unID. VOA on 11550 is
Saipan, at 15-19; // clear weaker 11510 which is Tinian at 15-17.
There may well be a third station on 11550, i.e. the Kurdo/Turco radio
war with VOA caused collateral damage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0120 UT December 30

** MADAGASCAR. 17730, Dec 28 at 1950, African language is 2nd SSOB,
outshone only by 17700 VOA Grimesland. Cuts off at 1959* and if any
ID, I dozed/missed it. But soon back on before *2000 with AWR theme,
opening French. As of Dec 29, latest HFCC update is Dec 18! Showing
10-degree beam adjustment, including slews, from 295 to 305 degrees,
from Ibo/Igbo for Nigeria, to French for central Africa (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U K [non]. 11825: Hi Glenn, Re your report on BBCWS from Tinang
[USAGM PHILIPPINES] at 2316 [Dec 27]. I monitored it from sign on at
2258 with a tone and then time pips at 2300 straight into info about
what was on during the next hour, that being the show Hardtalk
(Stylised as HARDTalk). Yes, it was a year in review. News read by
Moira Alderson followed. At roughly 2308 Stephen Sackur then began the
show with a story about Gaza and the war. I recorded the full hour for
later playback. Much of the content is sourced from the domestic BBC
News channel and then recompiled for the radio version. Reception was
a solid SINPO 44444 and easily as good as what I used to get from
Kranji [Singapore] on 12095 at 1500 through to 1900 UT. Tony Pavick,

** CUBA. 11760, Dec 27 at 2312, no signal direct from RHC`s #1 legacy
channel. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EGYPT. 9900-, Dec 27 at 1851, S5/S8 of dead air or maybe trace of
modulation, direct. R. Cairo sked 17-19 in Turkish, slightly on the
low side. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. 13670, Dec 27 at 1900, S9/+10 African song; MWV
starting Arabic hour, following English at 1800 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6930 USB, Dec 27 at 2320, S7/S9 music about = noise
level. These take it as 77LJS, as one reported it ``sounds like``
that:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,123309.0.html
Has the derivation of that name been explained? They say it was
playing classical choral music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.005, Dec 27 at 2300, VOT English back on the
air after AWOL yesterday, but insufficient direct. Via UTwente from
2334, S9+25/40 ending `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`, music.
2338, ``always-by-your-side`` promo, `Gripping Piles` about
sustainability. 2344 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo, music. 2353 canned
s/off by the badax, totally wrong incomplete times and frequencies for
expired A23. Those people are so out of it, clueless. If they can`t
even utter their own sked accurately, why should we believe anything
they say? Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2354 IS to 2355*
uncovering Xinjiang PBS, std denunciation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K Q O G B A N I [non]. 11825, Dec 27 at 2316, English discussion
of Ukraine, including interview with former SOTH Nancy Pelosi; maybe
year-in-reviewish. VG signal from BBCWS despite via USAGM Tinang,
PHILIPPINES, westward for Indonesia, this hour only. I will refrain
from remarking it`s a violation of SOCAS, despite UKetc. being a
theocracy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Re: Justin Austin on VOA `Music Time in Africa` Dec 22:
``Merry Christmas and all that! You may have already checked, but this
is indeed a young African American baritone. Check out
http://www.justin-austin.com
73, Randy Stewart`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17700, Dec 27 at 1855, S9+10/20 of open carrier; by 1900,
VOA French has started, the SSOB by far, from Grimesland (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2222 monitoring: confirmed UT
Wednesday December 27 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/25 into Missouri
SDR. Missed checking Wed Dec 27 at 1500 on WRMI 9955, unsked but had
appeared last 3 weeks; anyone hear it this week? Confirmed Wednesday December 27 at 2205 the 2200 on WBCQ 7490, S9/+15
into Maryland SDR displaying almost 7490.000 with slight variations.
Is that possible? Rechecking WWV later vs calibrations, accurate with
WBCQ only +3 to +8 Hz off, incredible! Perhaps a different transmitter
or relayed elsewhere? Next: 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0230 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW Thanks this week for a generous quarterly check on the Winter
Solstice, from Gerald T. Pollard, Raleigh NC, on a US bank to:
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated, or via
PayPal,
not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9275, Wed Dec 27 at 1849, no signal from WMLK, supposedly
sked 17-22 UT except SabbaSaturdays; what`s wrong? Prop OK from
neighbor 9265 WINB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15610, Dec 27 at 1901 and next few minutes, no signal from
WEWN English, supposed to start at 1900; what`s wrong? Prop OK as
15555 WJHR and 15825 WWCR are VG with sporadic-E boost. 12050 Spanish
on as usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1360, Dec 27 at 1907, `Jingle Bells`, a secular carol! then
``Merry Christmas from the Catholic Radio Network``, for which it`s
not over yet, then `I Saw Three Ships``. It`s KPHN, El Dorado KS with
EWTN, address in KC,MO, ordinary groundwave. Would same be on 15610
now if WEWN were on? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0027 UT December 28
