11685, 11940 and 15520 all audible here in Teddington UK. 11685 strong 
around 1900, but just audible by 2015; 11940 also were very strong 
around 1900, weaker at 2015. 15520 just about audible throughout. 17885 
not heard at all.

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, April 7 at 1530, no signal from
RNASG/LRA36, checked via Iceland, Bonaire SDRs as I can`t connect to
any of those in Brasil. Suspect it`s really AWOL this Wednesday, or
maybe already dumped off air early. No other reports of it have
appeared yet today, not even from Manuel Méndez, Spain. Try Saturday
as early as 1400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15730, April 6 at 2221, no RHC here, but is on 15370
distorted and squealing, S9+20/25; and nothing on 13 MHz band.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11880, April 6 at 2224, S3-S8 undermodulated music, presumed RHC when
French is scheduled; at 2258-2300* music to dead air to shutoff just
when English is supposed to start. QSY or forget it? No chance to
search all bands for it elsewhere, which was fruitless before.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.

11850, April 6 at 2225, RHC S5-S6 and undermodulated Spanish, along
with JBA parasite carriers 11840 & 11860. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000 & 6100 off, 6060 S9+20 big humbuzz over English; 6165
S9+20 lite hum and undermodulated, 5040 off. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13246-trace, 13318, 13388, 13459 vs CODAR, 13527, 13598,
13669; 13811, 13882, 13953 all approx., not in the order logged, April
7 from 1359, extremely distorted FMish spurblobs with F# tone, all in
the *wrong* places since they are obviously coming out of 13740
instead of 13700 which is not on air. 13740-AM itself is
undermodulated during music. Intervals are about 71 kHz apart.

1439 recheck: spurs audible around 13596, 13668, 13812-trace; while
15140 fundamental is squealing. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

As I have long suspected, RHC swaps transmitters/sites at will, yet
some loggers are always specifying Bejucal, Bauta or Quivicán as if
they know for sure. Latest Aoki/NDXC shows: 13700 Bauta at 14-16,
13740 Bejucal at 12-15 (& 22-05). But A-21 EiBi now available shows
both as b for Bauta, not be for Bejucal: 13700 at 13-15 and 13740 at
11-15 (& 22-05). Incredibly, neither of them lists any of these
horrible spurs -- but then their intervals vary widely. And now, also
their source-frequency, obviously one single transmitter with this
defect. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ERITREA [non]. 17545, Wed April 7 at 1537, zero signal from Bayto
Yaikl via France, direct or via remotes in India, Bonaire; Kuwait not
available. So far no luck since A21 began of hearing this Wed & Sat
1530 broadcast brokered by RMI so suspect kaput. Only trace of a
signal on 16m is 17630 = CRI Mali. But MUF is not totally down as I`m
hearing one Utah ham on ``17m``, see U S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** HAWAII. 10000, April 7 at 0250, WWVH tail of announcement spelling
something fonetikaly; what`s that? Need to catch it another hour. No
WWV audible at this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, April 7 at 1446, assertive YL sounds more
like Türkish than Kurdish, and we know Dengê Welat utters both
languages, fluttery S9-S5, and no second jammer signal audible here
nor on alternate 11540. Except for CUBA & non, 11530 is the SSOB.

EiBi shows DW on 11530 switching from PRIDNESTROVYE to FRANCE not
until 1600, with ``anti-Kurdish tape`` from Emirler only until 1500 on
11540.

Aoki, on the contrary, shows DW, 11530 going from PRIDNESTROVYE to
FRANCE at 1500, with ``TRT Radio Recep Erdogan`` on 11540 at 0500-2100
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7570, April 7 at 0241, this WRMI is off again
as TOMBS is phasing out? 7780 JBA carrier, but BS still blasting out
of the grave on 7730, and 7490- WBCQ.

April 7 at 0557: 7570 & 7780 are off again, BS still on WRMIs 7730,
9395, 5850, 5950; also WWCRs 5890, 4840 and squealy 3215 as he
attempts to sing.

9955, April 7 at 1449, WRMIs 9955 and 9455 are off instead of BS,
still on 9395 and WWCR 9980. The WRMI skedgrid
http://www.tinyurl.com/WRMIgrid still has not been updated to delete
the ex-BS blox, obviously now no accident (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, further chex April 6 of REE`s too-high-if-on-the-
air-at-all NAm frequency. Here at 2218 during Tue Sefarad show but
really speaking castellano, JBA carrier, while 15520 is good S6-S7;
11940 S5-S8; 11685 S3-S7. REE forces us to tune off-beam channels in
order to hear it at all.

17855, April 7 at 1809, direct today is JBA already and so is 15520,
while at 1823, the other two, 11940 & 11685 are JBA carriers. Strike
out, but 17855 is probably well-heard in Outer Space (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 6 at 2220, VOT reads S5-S7, no RTTY, but I
think the RTTY carrier is still on causing a fast SAH; undermodulated
and unusable. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler, awry at Ankara
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 18140-USB, April 7 at 1540-1608+, when hardly anything is on
the 17 MHz broadcast band, at least one ham is heard on 18 MHz, W7YO,
lengthy ragchew with never-audible KB4OIF -- I think, as fonetix never
applied. Says he had ear surgery in Dec removing inner cartilage, and
is just now recovering. He`s 67 and concerned with ``end-of-life``
tasks, such as building towers and antennas while he still can climb.
ARRL FCC lookup shows: ``GURNEY, GLENN M, W7YO, BLANDING, UT 84511``.
This probably a bit of HF sporadic E, distance only 645 miles, so
nothing to do with lack of F2 TA propagation.

Seems familiar: yes, I logged him last year: ``18131.778-USB, June 6
at 2049, W7YO is the OPSOB (only phone station on band), Glenn running
100 watts from the 4-corners area...` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, April 7 at 0558, one signal with W&M talk, goes
right thru hourtop and 0600.7 a bit of music, news theme? and more
talk. S2-S4. Again I think it is R. Vanuatu X3 despite co-channel CNR2
from China, which I assume would have a ToH timesignal and break,
right? Also a JBA carrier on 7890 X2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

only 5025 kHz, best proper R Rebelde Bauta music program.
And two in 49 mb,
6165 kHz best RHC from Bauta,

CUBA. 6165, April 6 at 0235, RHC English, instead of alternate

6100, April 6 at 0610, RHC final English repeat is OFF. So is 6000.

I`m monitoring REE poor reception again this afternoon to report shortly.
Certainly not off the back to you, Nominal center beam of 290 degrees hits
NAm about Walterboro SC, but Fred. is only about 15 degrees off. CIRAF
targets are 4 and 6 thru 11, i.e. all of N America and Caribbean except C
& W Canada, Alaska. Glenn

Not hearing 17855 kHz here in NB this afternoon (6 April) at 19:25 UTC.
But it is on as I checked the U. Twente SDR receiver. But really weak
there. However, it would be getting it off the back of the beam more or
less if the signal is actually being beamed to the North Atlantic. Perhaps
not at full power? Or just a propagation thing? I can hear the other three
frequencies but 11685 kHz just barely so.

** BRAZIL. 9664.914, April 6 at 0625, Voz Missionária is S7-S4 with
music, frequency wavering slightly as I measure it. Except for WRMI,
WBCQ, it`s the SSOB.

9818.823, April 6 at 0620, JBA carrier, presumably R. Nove de Julho,
and no other Brazilians on 31m except 9664.914, which is *much*
stronger, implying that 9dJ be underpowered. Both ZYE890 and ZYE971
nominally 10 kW per WRTH 2021. Occasionally I hear 9630v at night, and
one other, 9550 is sometimes reported at other dayparts, but these
still in WRTH 2021 must be long gone: 9675, 9695, 9725 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, April 6 at 0235, RHC English, instead of alternate
6145; 6060 nothing but big humbuzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6100, April 6 at 0610, RHC final English repeat is OFF. So is 6000.
Still ON are 6165, VG S9+30, and 6060 S9+10/20 but still with big
humbuzz only. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7780 & 7570, April 6 at 0614, these TOMBS
frequencies of WRMI all-night are OFF the air. Looks like QRT of BS is
already impacting, less Overkill; still VG on 7730, 5850, 5950, 9395.
WRMI skedgrid still shows them all, so possibly the two be off for
some other reason.

Bishop Bob Biermann, sort of with WRMI, says to the WOR iog: ``Being
that Brother Stair has paid in advance a month or more at most
stations, you will keep hearing him until the money runs out. If he
paid for April, then you have 25 more days, if he paid even more
(which he sometimes does), even longer. I would guess his “Board of
Directors” will have to make that decision, depending if people keep
sending money to his compound`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, April 6 at *1755:10, REE carrier on with IS, managing
to run it two days in a row! I`m on Alexandria VA SDR for east-coast
reception then compared to my own in Deep North America. At outset,
S4-S7 at Alexa, S5-S8 here. 15520 to ME, so off the back to here and
Alexa, is already on air from 1500, now with silly ballgame or hyper
sports report; E Hemisphere frequencies start and end 3 hours earlier
on weekdays. It`s S4-S7 here too. At 1758 schedule announcement. 1800
one pip timesignal, time check as 8, 7 en Canarias, and ``24 Horas``
news program. At Alexa, 15520 at S5-S7 is already much better than
17855. Alexa at 1816: 15520 poor S5-S7, 17855 S7-S8; but by 1818,
17855 is fading out, while 15520 is S9. At 1844 here, 17855 is S7-S9
but noisy, roughly equal to 15520; while 11940 for S America is much
weaker. By 1955 here, 17855 is JBA carrier, and 15520 VP.

Already by 2000, we need REE to be on lower bands aimed thisaway, 13,
or 11, and before much longer, say 2200-0200*, 9 MHz. The registered
NAm azimuth with 200 kW is 290 degrees, which hits the continent
around Walterboro SC; but CIRAF zone targets are for all of NAm and
Caribbean except for C & W Canada, Alaska, and Greenland (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565-CW, April 6 at 1420, HIFER beacon K6FRC is JBA, and
fades up a bit to BA, nothing but call repeating, from Patterson CA.
No variety whatsoever in programming, but with alleged 1.8 milliwatts
only, any and every reception is notable. Once again, I never hear
this at any other daypart and wonder if like any beacon should, it be
constantly transmitting? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

transmitter, supposed to be OFF the air 0430-2200 except daytime TOMBS
Saturdays only. Every so often I find this on air in nightmiddle, why?
Test or misprogrammed? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also SOUTH CAROLINA
[non]

** VANUATU. 11835, April 6 at 0628, JBA ``island music`` I would not
expect to hear from China`s CNR2, so presumed R. Vanuatu, 3 x 3945;
S3-S5 better than usual JBA carrier. 0631 announcement when I almost
hear Vanuatu mentioned? Still going past 0641+, only one signal. As I
pointed out before, now in A21 confronts QRM from high-power China
fundamental, but that seems to be in regular Tuesday-only siesta after
0600. Hardly anything else on 25m, e.g. China. Nothing audible now on
7890 = RV X 2.

I still think I heard only RV, but a contradictory report from Ron
Howard, CA, to the WOR iog: ``CHINA / VANUATU. 11835, random
monitoring on April 6 (Tuesday), from 0510 to 0705; CNR2 dominating
the whole time over Radio Vanuatu (harmonic); CNR2 didn't close down
at 0600, as they did last week; by 0615, started fading in of RV on
7890, with 3945 not heard; at 0701, could make out the distinctive
start of the RV news underneath CNR2``. Of course to here more so than
to CA, RV has a lower-latitude advantage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
