** CUBA. 11930, Dec 7 at 0736, pulse jamming against nothing as R
Martí is never on 25m at night; and for first time with matching
spurpeaks of jamnoise about plus/minus 7 circa 11923 & 11937: sure,
why not, just like broadcasts can spurify. Jamming against nothing
also running now on 11860, 9565, 5800 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ARGENTINA [non]. See USA: WOR monitoring, for pointless RAE IDs
looping on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHAD [non]. 12050, Dec 6 at 0734, African screeching, then talk, at
S5/S6 the SSOB, R. Ndarason Internationale, via ASCENSION; only a few
other weak sigs on 25m, #2 being 11830 = BBCWS English via SÃO TOMÉ
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Dec 6 at 1535, RHC music audio cutting out
intermittently // much weaker 15140; lyric ``no quiero`` repeating.
1538 ID inviting contacts to musica@rhc.icrt.cu for `Sonido Cubano`
program. Had not noted such an email before rather than usual enet or
etecsa. On their website I cannot find any email address displayed.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, Dec 6 at 1526, secular-sounding song,
S9/+20, 1529.5 very quick English saying you can now hear us at
vomkorea.com and off at 1530* sharp. It`s the mostly-Dhivehi service
which habitually puts in such a good signal here on the opposite
worldside of the target, from secret site believed probably to be
RBAustralia. I had not checked this 1500 broadcast for quite a while.
Website converts to https://vomkorea.com/en/ which implies in English,
but really mostly Korean, and no Maldives mentioned on homepage -
unless it`s in Korean! Internal site searching does lead to several
stories in English about it:
https://vomkorea.com/en/?s=maldives
It seems that Christians are persecuted, prosecuted there. Does VOMK/M
encourage them to stay underground or seek martyrdom? They should be
wary of anything with Martyrs in its name. This explains the situation:
https://vomkorea.com/en/2023/08/29/vomk-report-268/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 6 at 2322, token English from SNR confirmed,
S9+10/30 into Maryland SDR, but no time to listen. Still no podcast
for Dec 4 so presumably no show, but shortly could hear today`s Dec 6
that way (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960.000, Dec 6 at 2324, no signal from VOT into
UTwente, ceding the frequency to XJPBS in Chinese(?), from East
Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and
other Moslems. As soon as I saw the exact frequency before hearing it,
I figured it could not be Turkey. Something`s erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2219 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.
Dear Glenn: Update, confirming WOR #2219, This time of year the
Christmas lights, QRN, WRMI:
9395, 0130, 0145 (45433), TV QRN, 0159, December 5 UTC 2023 [Tue]
9395, 0030, 0044 (45343), 0059, December 6 UTC 2023 [Wed]
(Lemke, Richard -AB) 73’s, Richard``

Confirmed UT Wednesday December 6 at 0054 the 0030 on WRMI 9395, S7/S9
into way offbeam UTwente.

Wed Dec 6 at 1504, I check 9955 to note whether WRMI be on the air or
not: indeed, is on air, with surprise airing of WOR 2219! Skedgrid
still shows `Frecuencia al Día` instead; so unknown whether a one-time
error or deliberate. WOR does appear on sked Thursday at 1500, need to
recheck as that seemed to have been canceled. 9955 stays on after 1530
with utterly pointless RAE multi-lingual ID reel over and over past
1541, presumably entire semihour, instead of RAE French scheduled M-F.
Off after 1600.

WOR 2219 also confirmed Wednesday December 6 at 2200 on WBCQ 7490
minus 86 Hz = 7489.914, S7/S9 into NH SDR; after two weeks of dead air
instead. Just before 2200 I think I heard Pirate Joe say he would no
longer be on SW/WBCQ after Dec 31. Is that correct? Next:

0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S
0230 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. 9455, Dec 6 at 0738, WRMI-5 music overmodulated distorted,
splatter down to 9405, and even detectable down to 9350 on other side
of another WRMI, but the modpeax continue to match 9455 during the
only Fámily Radio hour in Spanish. Something`s outoforder at
Okeechobee. #5 has been a splatterer before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1590, Dec 6 at 0751 UT, ballad in Spanish, break for ID as
``Ambiente Clásico Radio``, another tune. What?? NRC AM Log has
several USSS on 1590, but no such slogan. Nor anything fits in
exhaustive IRCA Mexican Log. Google search finds immediately, a story
from late Aug after the NRC AM Log deadline and printing:
https://rbr.com/ambiente-clasico-secures-chicago-am-ownership/
‘Ambiente Clásico’ Secures Chicago AM Ownership By Adam Jacobson -
August 29, 2023
It`s the new format and ownership of WCGO, Evanston IL, which had been
Korean, 10/2.5 kW. Radio-locator still shows yet another outdated
format, ``Chicago`s News Talk``. Ambiente was already reported by
IRCAns in September. Nitetime coverage map has a notch thisaway to its
SW, major lobe northwards:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=WCGO&service=AM&h=N
but daytime is non-direxional:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=WCGO&service=AM&h=D
Some IRCA reports also suspected ND day pattern at night (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Dec 5 at 0437, RHC with music in English? service, but
not on any other known frequency; 11760 something else, 12000 no
harmonic, 15230 JBA something else? No, nothing but RHC listed ever on
that. Something`s very2 wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760 // 15140, Dec 5 at 1629, RHC Spanish found only on
these, S4/S5 on the lower and S5/S6 on the upper, but 11760 sounds
louder (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Dec 5 at 2324, only active RHC frequency, in
Portuguese. None others found on 13, 11, 9 or 6 MHz bands; but the CRI
relays are on, at 2321, 5990 is S9+20/30 undermodulated; 13650
music-only VG too. JBA carrier on 11980, probably 2 x 5990 as nothing
scheduled fundamentally on 11980 at this hour. Something`s very wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, Dec 5 at 2131, R. Cairo, S9+20/35 into UTwente, YL
with news headlines, distorted but understandable; 2132 ID including
``Voice of Africa`` [?], feature of music and talk much more
distorted. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE [non]. 11760, Dec 5 at 0438, checking RHC frequencies, this
one possible until as late at 0830 per EiBi, instead S9+10/20 of
Swahili with r-f-i ID pronounced in French in passing and a .sw
webref. Yes, via MADAGASCAR at 0430-0500 only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Dec 5 at 2318, REE already back on air after
publicized outage starting Dec 4 for work at the Noblejas power
station. Almost passes for Castilian, but it`s really Sefardí as sked
this semihour Tuesdays. S9+30, also on // in ascending frequency
order, descending strength: 12030, 17715, 17755 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SWAZILAND. 11660, Dec 5 at 1628, TWR tinkling music-box IS and IDs
as from eSwátini, S4/S5 with flutter, probably longpath. HFCC says
Amharic/Oromo at 1630-1700 on 13 degree beam (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960.005, Dec 5 at 2320, VOT detectable direct, S9+10 on
generous meter but JBA, between occasional local noise bursts of
S9+40. S9+35/40 into UTwente, 2347 ``always-by-your-side`` promo, and
multi-lingual ID filler reel, 2349 song. 2352 ``with-you every hour``
promo and s/off, this time with correct! UTs and B23 frequencies! But
incomplete, ignoring this very broadcast. 2353 IS starts; 2356
restarts with German IDs twice-minutely. Dec 6, 0000 almost accurate
timesignal and s/on extraneous German; right into Nachrichten, uses
same stingers/liners as English. 0009 Tuerkische Presseschau; 0011
``mit Ihnen alle Stunden`` promo, Musik. 0015 multi-lingual ID filler
reel; usw. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2219 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday December 5 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+30 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed UT Tuesday December 5 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into
Missouri SDR, but only JBA into TWR Brownsville SDR closer to its
aiming. Again, no noise blast ute QRM spoiler audible during first 14
seconds; that over & done with?

Also confirmed Tuesday December 5 at 1426 the 1400 on WRMI 9955, S4/S6
direct. Next:

0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. Greg Hardison has the answer to my quandary over VA vs GA on
1690:
"... 1690 is 'WMLB-AM` Atlanta ..." - WMLB is owned these days by some
r/wing reactionary in Virginia, same owner of WJFN/820 in Chester and
of late, WJFP/740 also in Chester, the one just outside of Philly,
along with possibly one or two others in the mid-Atlantic area. I've
seen indications in the past that all of the above are programmed out
of the Hub at WJFN, including local mid-Virginia sponsors and
references. Cheaper that way; saved overhead=more money left to give
to trump. My own funds say that you indeed did receive WMLB, on 1690,
with Red Neck Radio.`` Tnx, Greg (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
