Logs
** BRAZIL. 6180, Dec 18 at 0009, RNA on again, in the clear before
CRI/CUBA hits by 0100; slightly better than // 11780 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 7850-CUSB, Dec 18 at 1924 and still at 0255 Dec 19, CHU
back on this air! To stay this time? Last time I heard it was Nov 29
but only briefly, gone again. System status as of 0215 UT Dec 19
https://nrc.canada.ca/en/chu-short-wave-station/
shows 7850 back on air as of Dec 17 at 1430 but think we would have
noticed it earlier if really on to stay by then (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6060, Dec 18 at *0000:24, RHC Spanish cuts on the air with
frequency schedule, interrupted by modulation and/or carrier cutting
off and on and off and on again; S9+30 when on. Something`s always
wrong at RHC. So WRMI, q.v., could still safely use 6060 before 0000
as still claimed on its skedgrid, but now on 9425 instead (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALI. 13630, Dec 18 at 1856, S9+10/20 open carrier, 1900 sharp
China-Plus sign-on in English, first news about Macau; also weaker //
11640 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, Dec 17 until 2354:46.5* approx., R. Chaski carrier
cutoff under Cuban noise jamming despite no OCB; that would make it 2
seconds earlier than two nights ago, averaging only one per, so maybe
in margin of error (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 15225, Dec 18 at 1515, ME music with flutter. Had not
noticed this before next to RHC, but it`s SBC program 1 from 1500 per
EiBi, from 1450 per Aoki/NDXC, from 1500 per HFCC, 500 kW, 295 degrees
to NW Africa. JBA by 1549. Most of the daytime, 19m is a deadband
except for Cuba and bits of the few US stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2012 monitoring: confirmed Wed Dec
18 from 2100:20 on WBCQ 7490.045v, soon remarking that 576 kHz Algeria
is 600 kW, 30x the power of another FM station on AM, WSB with 50 kW;
make that only 12x! It`s hard to imagine any American MW station
running 600 kW.

Also confirmed UT Thu Dec 19 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, VP S7-S9 in noise.

First airings of WOR 2013 should be:
Fri 0900 on Unique Radio NSW 5045-USB
Fri 2300 on WRMI 9955
Sat 0130 on WRMI 5010 5850 7780
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9425, Dec 17 at 2302 & 2352, Dec 18 at 0002, SMTV on WWMI
new frequency remains on the air as I first reported yesterday; but
I`m out and don`t check whether it`s really the new RAE in Spanish
frequency too after 0100 Dec 18.

WRMI skedgrid late Dec 18 still shows no 9425! Just imaginary 6060 at
2100-2400 and 5800 at 0000-0200. 6060 BTW is neither occupied by RHC
until *0000:24 Dec 18 cut on with frequency schedule.

9425, Dec 18 at 2157, SMTV is already on as expected, and in case
there were any doubt, 2159.5 WRMI ID by Zanotti. 2351 SMTV still
audible, but by 0128 Dec 19 recheck inaudible, apparently faded out
like the other 9 MHz WRMI channels with K-index of 2 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 4840, Dec 18 after 0700, dead air from this WWCR again,
while 3215 and 5935 continue modulating their gospel huxters (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Momentous day Dec 18 for impeaching acting president Drumpf,
all-day coverage of House debate on major TV networx and cable news
channels --- but it`s business as usual on radio.

At 0017-0025 UT Dec 19 I scan the AM band twice for any // altho not
synchronized, to live TV coverage, and find such ONLY on 1170 KFAQ
Tulsa, and 1110 KFAB Omaha! The latter has cut away for ads at 0022,
but resumes by 0028.

Everything else is normal music, gospel-huxtering, sports or talk
formats, even the all-news stations like WBBM 780. Most of those
stations tilt far-right, but the event is rather important, with
Republicans and Democrats evenly alternating their different-universe
speeches. On FM it`s even worse, no one carrying it except KOSU from
NPR.

After 0100 shortly before the final voting on the Articles, I also
check TV channels via cable, to find live coverage ONLY on:
KFOR-4-NBC, KOCO-5-ABC, CSPAN-1, I24, CNN, MSNBC; Fox ``news`` shows
Rep. Schiff summing up on split screen while an anchor talx over him;
typical. KWTV-9-CBS did have all-day coverage, until 2330 UT when it
was the only major network still doing evening news, altho mostly
about Topic T (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1150, Dec 19 at 0023 UT, Mexmx roughly WSW-ENE with KSAL
nulled; maybe per NRC AM Log, Albuquerque KNMM listed at 1500/105
watts in Spanish but format undefined beyond that. Or El Paso KHRO,
5000/380 Radio Ministar in Spanish but supposed to be religious (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1520.7, Dec 18 at 1913 UT, once again, weak but constant
het upon 1520.00 KOKC OKC. Glad once before at midday I made sure that
het was 1521.00 as in Sa`udi Arabia, but not this; again suspecting
winter skywave from one of our closer 1520s, such as KRHW Sikeston MO
in the southeast; others in IA and TN about the same distance. KRHW is
supposed to have a null toward KOKC but we are slightly north of that
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ALBANIA [and non].  15770, Tue Dec 17 at 2043, R. Tirana via WRMI
in mailbag reading reports from listeners. Is there a program sked? No
direct entry for that on the Hitlist.

Hoping for some info on missing CRI via Cërrik, I have renewed
correspondence with Drita Çiço, formerly with Radio Tirana:

``Hello Drita, A long time since we contacted. I hope you are doing
well. And that the quake did not affect you.

We have been noticing the absence of most of the CRI relay broadcasts
via Cerrik. We are wondering if this is because of earthquake damage?
Do you have any definite information about that?

Continue to enjoy the Radio Tirana broadcasts via WRMI. Best holiday
wishes, Glenn``

She replies:

``Hi Glenn, Yes, it is a long time. I retired last year. At present, I
work at the library of a private university. University Metropolitan
Tirana. A lot of problems with earthquake here. Thanks God, we had no
problems at home. Thanks for asking.

As for CRI, I now phoned to the Chinese CRI representative in Tirana.
She told me that they have technical problems, did not want to give
details about earthquake. She said they don't know anything yet
(meaning top management), when CRI will come back on the air.

How are you and the others? Especially Noel and Wolfy? Keep in touch.
All the best from sunny warm Tirana, Drita

** CANADA. 406 kHz, Dec 17 at 0731, dash and YLJ, 40-watt NDB at
Meadow Lake, Saskatchewan, which is NW of Prince Albert on the way to
Cold Lake, Alberta. dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm shows this as the only
beacon on 406.

401 kHz, Dec 17 at 0732 UT, dash and ND beacon CPO as I copied it
dozing off, but must have been YPO, 500 watts at Peawanuck, Ontario
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6000, Dec 17 at 0352, RHC English is S9+30 but just a trace
of JB modulation; // 6145 is merely undermodulated but audible.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5910, Dec 17 at 0354, CRI music in Cantonese hour relay is
just barely modulated, like 6000 RHC itself. Something`s always wrong
at RadioCuba. Both supposed to be from Quivicán site and could
leapfrog unto 5820 but not audible there now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13768 approx., Dec 17 at 1539, spurblob best audible in AM
mode, out of 13700 RHC; much stronger than its opposite circa 13632.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** SWAZILAND. Re 4760 TWR, conflicting info about languages at
0330-0415, Peter W Hansen provides another version:
``Hi Glenn, TWR website has 0400-0415 as Ndau language,
0330-0400 M-F as Shona
0345-0400 Sat as Shona
0330-0345 Sat as Ndebele
and 0330-0400 as Shona And Ndebele with different programs`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 412 kHz, Dec 17 at 0730 UT, ND beacon CMY, which is 30 watts
at Sparta - Fort McCoy, Wisconsin. I was tuned to 410-USB (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2012 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday
December 17 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair S7-S9. Next:

0900 UT Wednesday Unique Radio NSW 5045-USB
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Aussie Tim Gaynor informs us that Unique Radio is currently active
with WOR also scheduled Fridays at 0900 on 5045-USB; Mondays 0900 &
0930 on 5045-USB or 3210-USB --- presumably latest and previous
episode with a frequency change in between?

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9425, Dec 17 at 2120, woman with heavy accent in English
rambling on about Buddhism, impossible to follow her point; sure
sounds like The Supreme Master, on new frequency. Yes, 2130 into some
music, outro as ``Treasured Jewel``, and SMTV website, announcements.
Got to be WRMI, which had been scheduled on 5800 starting at 2100 for
SMTV but no signal there, despite 5950 audible.

9425 sounds like one of WRMI`s undermodulated transmitters; it`s
S9/+10 but much softer and weaker than 9395 & 9455, halfway between
them with other programming. Still not shown at
http://www.tinyurl.com/WRMIfqs
So far *no* WRMI entry in Jeff`s HFCC on 9425, just updated today.
Must have been a tempting choice since nothing is registered on it
anywhen --- but HFCC omits all Voice of Korear usage, conveniently
finishing 9425 at 2057. Nothing about this on WRMI FB either. Nor at
https://suprememastertv.com/en1/worldwide/
There is no link to this on the Hitlist, not under WRMI. Now, how late
will 9425 last rather than 5800, previously scheduled until 0100 with
SMTV, plus another hour of RAE AAM in Spanish? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
