** BENIN. 1566, June 1 at 0323, monitoring Canary SDR for opening of
TWR, whose carrier I DXed direct a couple nights ago. It`s so weak I
can`t see an exact cut on, but it is there by 0330, and still no
modulation audible by 0345. The Fuerteventura SDR gets that much, not
the other one in Tenerife (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 15245, June 1 at 1536, algo weak direct with het
from even weaker 15245.25 approx. The latter is surely VOK as logged
yesterday; the former listed as CRI English this hour only via
Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other
Moslems. Commies vs Commies! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GERMANY. 6150, June 1 at 1453 into UTwente, pop music S7/S9, as I
check for anything besides WOR from missing SW Radio 6160. Nothing
above that on band, but this below which is Europa24, Datteln. 1544
rock/songs in English with ID between each in German, ``Europa
vierundzwanzig`` also at 1547, 1555, 1558. SHN`s latest and last list
of Eu private lowpower SW stations shows it closing at 1500. WRTH 2024
page 548 shows 250 watts at 09-17. Map shows Datteln in NW Germany
near Netherlands border like some of the others (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** ROMANIA. 9740, June 1 at 0224, RRI in Spanish, VG S9+20/40 into
Maryland SDR, Castilian accent, with folk music, new frequency ex-9700
due to QubaRM; ironically, RHC is absent tonight, but no doubt will be
back (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, June 1 at 2203, VOT English not off the air,
S9+30/40 VG into UTwente, with Olds; 2210 multi-lingual ID filler
reel; 2212 `The Energy Agenda`, 2219 songs past 2240 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 17675, June 1 at 1533 direct, S2/S5 sounds like
Portuguese play-by-play game coverage. Suspect it`s the BAL
championship from Rwanda via VOA SAO TOME; previous games were on
17655, and 15580 Botswana, but which is not heard now. 17675 gone by
next check 1742 at UTwente. Certainly not NZ at that hour. At 1744,
17655 is on into UTwente, VG S9+15/20 with Luso Port discussion of
Angolan economy; at 17-18 regular site is VATICAN, violating
Separation Of Church And State (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2245 monitoring: despite my hearing
music on 9955 at 2228 Friday May 31, Jeff White replies, ``Glenn: WOR
is still scheduled for 6 pm ET Friday on 9955, and our electronic log
from yesterday shows it played at that time. Jeff``

And next: ``Hi Glenn, WOR 2244 (not 2245) heard via SWR Germany on
Friday 31 May at 2230 UT on 3975 kHz. Best wishes, Alan Roe,
Teddington, UK``

Not confirmed UT Saturday June 1 at 1453 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, as no signal from 6160 into UTwente; nor on 3975. But see
GERMANY: 6150

Confirmed Saturday June 1 at 1600 on WRN North America webcast.

Also confirmed Saturday June 1 at 1733 the 1730 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, into UTwente, 6160.001 S9/+10 and 4 or 5 words behind on
3975.002, S9/+5.

``WOR 2245 confirmed via SWR Germany via my local Kiwi SDR. Saturday
1st June 17:30:20 UT on 6160 kHz. S9+5dB. However some sideband China
QRM // on 3975 kHz with S9 and no sideband QRM. Lesley Illingworth
reporting from Bremerhaven.``

Also confirmed Saturday June 1 starting at 1946.5 the 1930v on WA0RCR,
1860 AM, MO, steady S9+15 groundwave into nearby SDR with no storm
noise.

Also confirmed Saturday June 1 at 2000 on WRN Europe webcast. Next:

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to:
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, June 1 at 0657, WRMI in Vietnamese, one of the
multi-languages of Supreme Master TV, S9+5/15 direct; 0658 back into
English and // 9395. Maybe on TV there are translation captions? Not
helpful on radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 3955, Sat June 1 at 1900-1940+, Texas Radio Shortwave
via Channel 292, GERMANY, now monthly broadcast, S9/+10 into UTwente
but considerable noise and fading, synth? YL voice hostess with ``the
music of Texas blues legends Hugh D. Ledbetter and Lemon Jefferson.
We’ll be broadcasting on Saturday at 1900 UTC on 3995 kHz and
Sunday at 1200 UTC on 9670 kHz`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9700, May 31 at 0409, RHC Spanish with news,
S9+30/40 direct, no sign of QRM from Algeria, despite scheduling, and
that not on 9500 either. Also as of June 1, Romania in Spanish at
0200-0300 evacuates from 9700 to 9740. Recheck at 0426, RHC is off
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH. 15245.244, May 31 at 1823, song at S4/S7 and way off
frequency first estimated at 15234.25; yet one of better sigs on
almost deadband, JBA carriers, except for USA stations. I bet it`s
P`yongyang. At 1832 when measured I tune it in at UTwente where it`s
VG S9/+15, and soon announcements in English as ``sweet`` music
continues: how could that be coming from a hellhole rather than a
paradise on earth? 1853 with typical KN accent, recites extensive
times and frequencies of Voice of Korear English broadcasts, not clear
if complete, and off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SCOTLAND [non]. 5850, UT Friday May 31 at 0200-0300, `Encore` on
WRMI, first scheduled airing of fortnightly run; usually I catch a
later repeat on UT Sunday or Monday; and check the playlists. But
content of this new(?) program does not match either playlist nor his
publicity. I notify Brice Avery, who says there was a mixup but he
won`t be able to correct it until Tuesday. Anyway, I told him I very
much appreciate his mixture of familiar and unfamiliar classical
music! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Fri May 31 at 2159, just before token English from
SNR, S9+30/40 direct and the other three detectable, 15390 & 15520 not
yet // but 17715 is. Back at 2202 after WRMI and Turkey have faded out
in R3 blackout, 17855 still audible but diminished to only S9+10/20.
Missed billboard about topix, but today no Amy, only Marylin Quintana.
2207 is about the dangers of smoking, referring to
https://semanasinhumo.es/ which concludes today. 2210 interview about
a museum with a statue of Constantine. 2226 report by Lebanon
correspondent, which I am now hearing on 15389.988, S8/S9 into UTwente
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, May 31 at 2156, VOT IS & IDs, so not off the air
and not on wrong frequency this time; S9+10/20 direct, but 2202
recheck only a JBA carrier! This correlates perfectly with a WWV
notice of R3 level blackout: see that under USA/WOR report. By 2224 I
try UTwente when measured, as it`s S9+50 over one? hop, starting
`Turkish Folk Tales` about two sultans (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2245 monitoring: confirmed Friday
May 31 at 2051 the 2030 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.995 kHz, S9+5
into UTwente. Also on WRMI webcast only.

NOT confirmed Friday May 31 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, which had been the
first airing on SW anywhere: monitoring direct at 2158, S9+10/20 on
the meter but too undermodulated? to tell what`s on it, cannot even
recognize theme at 2200. By 2202 signal is gone: correlates perfectly
with WWV report of an R3 level blackout:

``Space Weather Message Code: SUMX01

At 2228 I get to 9955 just in time via Maryland SDR, to hear choral
music, NOT WOR, so looks like we have been canceled again! This makes
the very much appreciated WTWW airing, UT Sat 0400 on VG 5085, now the
first on SW from USA. First anywhere should be Fri 2230 on SWR Germany
3975, which I missed checking this week. Since I record on Thursday
afternoon including some possibly perishable info, the sooner WOR can
get on the air somewhere, the better. Next:

** U S A. Pre `AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, May 31 at 2342 into NH SDR:
3265 & 5130 NOT on air; 6160 -70 Hz = 6159.930 TOMBS; 7490 -70 Hz =
7489.930 FKB; 9330.000 WLCR S7/S9. Everyone hears the ``one-minute``
warning to FKB, except him, as he keeps preaching and has to be faded
out by 0000 UT June 1, when ``WTO`` theme starts, before a late canned
ID intervenes on 7490-. Unlike usually, AW never interjects a word into
theme; it plays complete unmarred. Then as usual he`s fumbling with
the equipment, instead of getting all set before the broadcast.
Angela`s mike check is OK. Having a problem getting 6160 to stay on as
``quadricasting`` tonight on ``3265, 5130, 6160, 7490``. NO, I recheck
and 6160 is on with something else and the other two are still OFF.
Says last week [only] was a repeat, and A&A have just returned from
Florida ``a week ago`` up the I-95 corridor, with complaints about
speed limits and masks. Soon at 0009 takes a phone call from Adam in
Indiana, by which time it`s very clear this is an oldie from early in
the COVID pandemic! No disclaimer aired before it this week. I was
wondering why they were not outraged about *rump being convicted
yesterday. This makes the SIXTH RERUN IN A ROW, as I have checked
every week, and the last new one was APRIL 20! I am thus wondering if
A and/or A be ill or something? Any explicatory twits lately? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, May 31 at 0636, music at S6/S7 so R. Vanuatu is back
with modulation as well as carrier. Ron Howard had notified the
engineer that last night it was on but with dead air, apparently news
to him! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1141.00 kHz, May 31 at 0616 UT, het against 1140.00
stations, very close to 1 kHz tone. Could not be a TA or TP where 1143
is nominal. As previously reported by: Terry L Krueger from:

``Boggy, Florida Occidental, IC-R75, NRD-535, ICF-7600GR, Tecsun
PL-360, active loop, random fence-stapled wire, misc. junk --- 1141
UNIDENTIFIED 0716 5/16/24 Fairly strong and solid with no audio, as
reported by others. Points roughly 330/150-ish degrees, which should
eliminate Cuba if accurate enough. Anyone in Mexico able to check?``
