![Logs](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/logs.gif) ** CUBA. 9790, May 4 at 0331, CRI English relay is S9+20/10 but just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MALI. 11640, May 3 at 2107, CRI English relay VP but detectable // much stronger 13630. 11640 is scheduled 1800-2130 in Hausa, Arabic, Portuguese and finally English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, May 4 at 1416 UT, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV signal, the 3ABN satellator, is on air at Good+ signal level, but black screen and silence on all six subchannels, rather than only three of them. Boo, hoo. Hepburn tropo map for 1500 May 4 shows a level-3 blob between Enid and OKC, but nothing unusual beyond traces of Bad signals on low-power channels 21 and 42 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** TURKEY. 9515.007V, May 4 at 0320, VOT English YL talking about Ottoman Empire history, undermodulated and muffled, soon into music, S9+10/20 and with flutter. Frequency is also wobbling slightly, Doppler effect? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [non]. 9740, May 3 at 2103, ``VOA Afrique`` ID in passing during French news, fair; wonder which site? It`s Woofferton UK, 2100 -2130 M-F, 250 kW at 158 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1979 monitoring: missed checking Friday May 3 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, but presumably replayed. Confirmed UT Saturday May 4 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, fair. Due to an uploading delay by gh, 1979 continued rather than 1980 for these two times. Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria observes: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 6190 CUSB, May 4: https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/05/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on.html 0631-0700 6190 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg CeEu English Sat, weak signal`` WORLD OF RADIO 1980 monitoring: woke up at 1159 UT Sat May 4, one minute too late to confirm that 1980 had been broadcast as scheduled at 1130. As usual WOR cannot be confirmed Saturday May 4 at 1431 on HLR 9485- CUSB; via UTwente no signal, just super-splash from 9490. Anyway, HLR probably is repeating 1979 instead of 1980 this weekend. Two of our UT Sunday times on WRMI have been replaced by ``tests`` of Hobart Radio International, according to Jordan Heyburn, UKOGBANI, who has a segment on HRI: Sunday 0030 & 0830 on 7730. Otherwise, WOR: 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM ND 2100 UT Saturday WRMI 9955 to SSE 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW [canceled?] 0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315] ND 0830 UT Sunday WRMI 5850 5950 7730 [some canceled?], NW/WNW/WNW 1030 UT Sunday HLR 7265-CUSB Germany to WSW 2130 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to NE 0130 UT Monday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0230 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to NE 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW 0330 UT Monday WRMI 9955 to SSE 0930 UT Monday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW ND 1815 UT Monday IRRS 7290 Romania ND 0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE 0800 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW [2 editions] ND 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE [it appears we will now be running on a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, so freshest new airings are on weekends] Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 7490.123v, Friday May 3 at 2119, WBCQ with `Behaviour Night` ancient music recordings, but too weak in noise level to enjoy. Earlier today the 500 kW transmitter was reported testing with open carrier only on 7490 --- I`ve yet to see anyone confirming its exact frequency which should be much closer to 7490.000. Unfortunately, we cannot expect any of our favorite programs to become audible as Superstation time will primarily be for the funders, the flat-earth ``Worlds Last Chance`` ministries. 7490+, UT Saturday May 4 after 0000, William Tell Overture but AAAWWW hosted this week instead by Pirate Joe Ferraro, from his own studio at WHVW in NY. Not long before AW calls in from some hamfest in New Hampshire, and he`s on the horn until 0034 as I keep listening for the latest info on the 500 kW project, summarizing: Initial on-air testing has been on 7490 with open carrier only, not 9330 as he had publicized earlier. PJ`s own show `Shortwave Saturday Night` *may* be on the 500 kW, on its regular schedule 7490 UT Sunday 0100-0400, at the usual azimuth of 245 degrees as on the old antenna. The 500, transmitter #6, is all water-cooled, including tubes, coils, vacuum capacitors costing $ 25K each. The whole thing is very complex and all computer-controlled. Modulation is 95% efficient. Power level is being brought up slowly; was 135 kW with brief tests to 400 kW. WLC programming normal sked should begin later this month mainly on 9330. A new frequency in the ``5-6 MHz band`` will be available at night. (Nonesuch yet in HFCC, http://hfcc.org/data/schedbybrc.php?seas=A19&broadc=BCQ but shows hour-by-hour languages and azimuths planned? for 9330 and still lists the imaginary 15420) Part of the time I listen on 9330.13v, but as it fades down, back to 7490.12v. At 0034 JP resumes with totally unrelated ``stream of consciousness`` musings about cars and Detroit, and at 0055 recheck something about US Grant. Here`s John Carver`s version: ``Tonight's show started early on 7490. Pirate Joe is the host this evening while Allan and Angela are at NearFest. Killing time with mild political talk while waiting for Allan to call in. Difficult to copy Allan over Pirate Joe's phone patch. Lot of static this evening. Allan announced that they have been testing the new transmitter the last two days and are planning to take it to full power tomorrow. Possibly will be broadcasting tomorrow's 7490 programs over the new transmitter. Most of the program this evening is devoted to political talk and WHVW items with little about WBCQ. It was announced that a Go Fund Me page had been started for WHVW. Show was off the air at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana`` AW`s latest twit circa 12 UT May 4: ``More power today for the worlds superstation. Hopefully to 500kw. Testing on 7490khz. Later this week on 9330khz. One megawatt average load for 500kw out at average modulation. Wow. All for you the special shortwave listeners. Support us. The last free speech radio voice. Ground.`` Ground refers to his shot of some grounding cables by some posts, supporting the feedline? After WWCR is finished with 7490 at 1500, May 4 at 1540 check, I do have an open carrier on 7490.002, which must be WBCQ-6, but it`s only S2-S3, certainly not Super. Of course if this were put on 11, 13 or 15 MHz in the daytime it would propagate much better, but no plans for that. Could really be 7490.000 within my margin of error (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9475 & 5830, May 3 at 2104, both WTWW-1 day and night frequencies are OFF (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1602 UT May 4 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/

![Logs](http://www.hard-core-dx.com/images/hcdx/logs.gif) DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS updated May 2: http://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.971, May 2 at 1405, JBA carrier, no doubt LRA36 on signature off-frequency, mostly oceanic path from Esperanza to Enid, so still active on Thursdays; and Tuesdays altho I could not detect it on April 30. Later today May 2 at 1820 also heard in Germany by Harald Kuhl, ``almost readable, with talk program`` on ``15476`` USB plus carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1980, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 15140, May 2 at 1823, RHC in dead air instead of Arabic. Hope the announcer did not choke! Something is always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENIG DIGEST) ** MADAGASCAR. 13710, May 1 at 2056, OM solo hymn in English about ``Faithfulness`` then announcement in Chinese! This is supposed to be the Radio Feda = Arabic hour of MWV; not the first time WCB has upmixed their languages. Chinese supposed to follow from 2100 on 11610: so was that one in Arabic? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1980, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MALI. 13630, May 1 at 2057, Chinese lesson in English, S6-S8; must be Bamako CRI relay as scheduled at 2000-2100, plus anomalally another 30 minutes of English until 2130 starting French. Lack of reports lately of any of these relays but I have not been seeking them, just ran across this. Sporadically active? // for this is 11640: not heard there aside big Cuban numbers signal on 11635 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1980, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 570, May 2 at 1105, dominant signal is Spanish from the south, religious program, YL with American accent mentions ``Bible church``, OM with not, plugging a bunch of meetings/revivals? with specific home addresses in San Antonio TX, Salinas, El Centro and several other places in California, from one evening to the next from April 26? to May 5. By 1122 predicating with frequent keyword ``restauraciÃn`` Ã la previous owner of KVOH. Wondered if KLIF had gone the way of KEXB, flipped to partial Spanish gospel huxtering, but think it better-just-be XEBJB Monterrey NL, which despite a ``regional mexicana`` music format is a.k.a., ``Nueva Vida`` which of course connotes religion, at least at this daypart. Raymie Humbert recently compiled a list of stations with religious concessions, but not including XEBJB; in Monterrey on AM, only 1140 XEMR; see DXLD 19-16 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** MEXICO. 590, May 2 at 1119, music and ads, 590 frequently plugged, finally ``Sabrosita`` slogan heard, which = XEPH, 25/10 kW in MÃxico CDMX, rather than something closer like XEFD in Tamaulipas (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1979 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday May 1 from 2100 on WRMI 9955 S8/S9+10, also on WBCQ 7490.15v, JBA S3-S5. Also confirmed UT Thursday May 2 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair. WORLD OF RADIO 1980 contents: Antarctica, Bougainville, Brasil, China, Cuba non, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Guinea, Indonesia, Iran, Korea North non, Kurdistan non, Kuwait, Madagascar, Mali, Mongolia non, Myanmar, Nigeria non, Northern Mariana Islands, Papua New Guinea, Russia, Switzerland, Tajikistan, USA, Venezuela non; Hitlist and DX/SWL/Media programs; and the propagation outlook WOR 1980 uploaded at 2318 UT Thu May 2 ready for listening. Or via http://www.worldofradio.com/audiomid.html Also linx to podcast services. SW broadcasts should be: 0930 UT Friday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW ND 2200 UT Friday WRMI 9955 [NEW] to SSE 0130 UT Saturday WRMI 7780 to NE 0629 UT Saturday HLR 6190-CUSB Germany to WSW 1000 UT Saturday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW [May 11, alt weeks] ND 1130 UT Saturday WRMI 9955 to SSE 1431 UT Saturday HLR 9485-CUSB Germany to WSW 1930vUT Saturday WA0RCR 1860-AM ND 2100 UT Saturday WRMI 9955 to SSE 0030 UT Sunday WRMI 7730 to WNW 0300vUT Sunday WA0RCR 1860-AM [nominal 0315] ND 0830 UT Sunday WRMI 5850 5950 7730 [some canceled?], NW/WNW/WNW 1030 UT Sunday HLR 7265-CUSB Germany to WSW 2130 UT Sunday WRMI 7780 to NE 0130 UT Monday WRMI 9395 to NNW 0230 UT Monday WRMI 7780 to NE 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW 0330 UT Monday WRMI 9955 to SSE 0930 UT Monday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW ND 1815 UT Monday IRRS 7290 Romania ND 0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE 0800 UT Tuesday Unique Radio 5045-USB NSW [2 editions] ND 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE [it appears we will now be running on a Friday-to-Thursday cycle, so freshest new airings are on weekends] Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9330.17v, May 2 at 0036, WBCQ is S9+20 with TOMBS about Planet X, but doubt it`s the new 500 kW transmitter which AW said would start testing with RF May 1, so we have been checking it all day. I expect initially they will not be running it full-bore, but also expect it would not be off-frequency like the old transmitter. Random chex later May 2 still find no sign of powerful new transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1980, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 11712.3 approx., May 2 at 1412, SSB talk, but cannot get it to resolve by tuning USB or LSB back and forth. Could be third harmonic of a ham around 3904, where nothing is heard, lower band not propagating in the daytime (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 0038 UT May 3 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/
