(7490.25v but via webcast), UT Sat Feb 8 at 0103, after WTO, `AAAWWW`

string bikini, as she likes to run around the house in her underwear when
it`s warm, i.e. 75 degrees in DeLand vs colder temps further north. But
NWS now shows it`s really only 52 degrees in DeLand. A twit from Allan Feb

Logs
** CANADA. 346-MCW kHz, Feb 7 at 0706, ND beacon dash and YXL, which
is 500 watts from Sioux Lookout, Ontario. I was tuned to 347-USB.

382-MCW kHz, Feb 7 at 0708, NDB dash and YPL, which is 1000 watts from
Pickle Lake, Ontario. Both audible despite storm noise crashes from SE
USA and I hope temporary local buzz noise level. See also USA (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 15700, Feb 7 at 1502, CRI Plus relay via CUBA is
S9+10/20 but undermodulated; in news all about how China is coping
with the Coronavirus; did they explain why the late Dr Li was
persecuted? Missed the first part; only one other item, about Iowa
caucuses before 1505 `World Today` discussion, calling up scholars(?)
in Glasgow and Barcelona who appear to be great admirers of China.
Enough of that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Feb 7 at 1451, RHC is still on here at S9, but JBM,
suptorted during `Estampas de Cuba`, non-philatelic. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13505, 13570, 13635, 13765, 13830, 13895, 13960 approx., Feb
7 at 1455, FM/AM spurblob constellation out of RHC 13700 at plus and
minus 65 kHz intervals. 13505 only a trace; 13895 louder than closer
13830 at least when I tune by. 13765 wipes out Radio Farda via
Lampertheim, Germany scheduled for a dekahour, 0530-1530. Something`s
always wrong at RHC.

Off topic on the IRCA MW iog, and quoted on WOR 2020, Phil Karn
explains: ``I'm thinking of how these spurs could have been generated.
Given that they seemed to be centered around the main transmission, I
can easily see how a conventional plate-modulated class-C AM
transmitter could develop spurious oscillations that would appear as
harmonically related sidebands of the main signal, with the varying
high voltage (due to the modulation) frequency modulating those
spurious emissions. They could really use a new transmitter, but I
suspect they won't get one for a while. Phil``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Feb 7 at 1508, RHC is S9/+10 of dead air; while weaker
// 15230 is OK. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1320.0, Feb 7 at 1621 UT check on the R75 with
E-W longwire, dominant signal is in political talk, not sports, so
KWHN, Fort Smith AR; with the rotatable DX-398 on 1319.96, I can
separately get sports talk from SW, which is modulation from KCLI
Clinton (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Feb 7 at 2322, zero signal English to North America
from VOT, so expect no bonus German either at 0000 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 365-MCW kHz, Feb 7 at 0707, ND beacon AA, which is 100 watts
from Fargo - Harwood, North Dakota. Was tuned to 363-USB.

400-MCW kHz, Feb 7 at 0709, ND beacon AHQ, which is 25 watts from
Wahoo, Nebraska. Vs storm noise from SE USA and local buzz. See also
CANADA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12788-USB, Feb 7 at 2205, VP S1-S3, marine weather broadcast
obsessed with nothing but wind direxion and speed in knots; and seas
in feet, for various Atlantic ocean grids. EiBi shows only station on
this frequency is USCG New Orleans, NMG, with several broadcasts
including this one at 2130-2245. Unlike some other USCG, like
Chesapeake, NMG with decent modulation by OM robovoice (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7340-7345-7350, Feb 7 at 2312 check, Radio Martí well
received with few dropouts via Colombia KiwiSDR; no problem tuning it
here like some have been reporting; I understand the mode at GB is
DRM-B. Readout shows only RM, nothing on a second channel; bring back
Willis Conover! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2020 monitoring: confirmed first
WRMI airing, Friday Feb 7 at 2300 on 9955, VG via Colombia Kiwi SDR;
