** CUBA. 15370, March 7 at 2046, RHC is in English and just barely
modulated. This Bauta frequency is supposed to be in French starting
at 2030; 15140 is also in English where it is supposed to be, but
overmodulated/distorted at S9+10. Anyhow, no spurs audible from
either. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

15370, March 7 at 2206, RHC by now is in proper Spanish, S9+5 but JBM,
yet the SSOB if not the OSOB. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 6060, March 8 at 0523, RHC in Spanish instead of
supposed-to-be-English after 0500, only S9+10 so not the usual bigsig;
and suffering a SAH from Qur`an, underneath as the Fribbath is
underway overthere. That`s Algeria via FRANCE at 04-06, only the first
hour supposed to be Qur`anic per Aoki, the second Network 1 in French
& Arabic. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

How about the other RHC English frequencies? *None* of them are any
good now: 6100 S9+10, 6000 S9 but both undermodulated; 6165 very poor
S8 with ACI from stronger 6170 VOA Hausa via ASCENSION! Somethings are
always wrong at RHC.

5040, March 8 at 0622, the final RHC hour here is also in English,
S9+20/30 but overmodulated/distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 13728.283V, March 8 at 1426, JBA carrier blob wobbling, and a
match on 13671.715V, spurs out of 13700-AM RHC, i.e. plus & minus
28.28+ kHz as also measured previously.

There could also be second-orders at plus/minus 56.56 kHz, the upper
clashing with WINB DRM noise 13755-13760, but its lower component
cannot be detected circa 13643 in the clear. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15700, March 8 at 1432, China Plus relay in English is S9+30
and suptorted. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15230, March 8 at 1433, RHC is S9+10 of dead air, maybe a
trace of modulation, while 15140 is too-loud & clear. By 1538 recheck,
15230 is modulating but distorting and crackling, about like 15140
during `Sonido Cubano`, tsk2, ruining an otherwise worthwhile music
show. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** JAPAN. 11815.0, March 8 at 1435, wild jazz from R. Japan in
Japanese service; S7-S8 with a heavy het from weaker Turkey off-
frequency 11815.7, but almost eliminated by AMF button on R75, better
by LSB-only tuning. Turkey off by 1500 so ``NHK Warudo`` ID and 3+1
resounding timesignal, // 9750 which had no such QRM. Then 11815 off
clearing for Qur`an from VOT; see Turkey (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALI. 5995, March 7 at 2214, S6-S7 very poor music, but must be
ORTM reactivated again after a few more days AWOL. Richard Langley
says it went off at 2230* instead of nominal previous schedule to 2400
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 11815.7, March 8 at 1502, VOT Turkish with Qur`an, Fribbath
vespers, in the clear after stronger NHK closed 11815.0 (see JAPAN). I
wonder if it`s live from the brand-new super-mosque which just opened
yesterday in Istanbul:
https://www.dailysabah.com/istanbul/2019/03/07/first-ever-prayer-held-at-turkeys-largest-mosque-in-istanbul
A report I saw said each minaret is dedicated to some war or another
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.17v, UT Fri Mar 8 at 0103, WBCQ playing back an old
`Allan Weiner Worldwide` during an Available Time Slot
http://wbcq.com/schedule/index.php?fn=sked&freq=7490
--- and there was another(?) one three hours earlier sometime after
2200 as I tuned by March 7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5130.48v, UT Fri March 8 at 0109, this WBCQ is on, S9+10,
two guys conversing giving multiple platforms, mentioning Liberty
Radio, time for the Intel Report (subsexion?), 0113 pause to fulfill a
listener`s birthday music request from Kalkaska; refers to ``lower
49`` maybe implying this originate in Alaska? No, Kalkaska is a small
town and county in northern Michigan near Traverse City. Probably the
revived militia show, secretly shortwaving: Still *nothing* displayed
on the 5130 schedule
http://wbcq.com/schedule/index.php?fn=sked&freq=5130
between 0330 UT Wed and 0100 UT Sat.

3264.9, March 8 at 0115, this WBCQ can be detected as JBA carrier,
apparently always on but never usable here; and NO info about program
content:
http://wbcq.com/schedule/index.php?fn=sked&freq=3265
Others have indicated it relayed Pirate Joe`s WHVW; or the AM side of
WBCQ, WXME; or Timtron`s LP in Skowhegan ME, WXNE (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 17775, Thu March 7 at 2208, JBA carrier, the Only Signal On
Band, must be KVOH running later than scheduled, but total loss as far
as we are concerned. Another look at skedgrid revised 1 Feb. shows
closings: 2005* M/W/F, 2200* Tue/Thu, 2100* Sat, and never on Sunday
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Please delete Japan item in latest report and replace with corrected:

** JAPAN [and non]. 11815.0, March 8 at 1435, wild jazz from R. Japan
in Japanese service; S7-S8 with a heavy het from weaker Turkey off-
frequency 11815.7, but almost eliminated by ANF button on R75
(Automatic Notch Filter), better by LSB-only tuning. 1500 ``NHK
Warudo`` ID and 3+1 resounding timesignal, // 9750 which had no such
QRM. Then 11815 off clearing for Qur`an from VOT; see Turkey (Glenn

** CHINA. 6970, March 7 at 1330, CNR1 at S7-S9, // 6125; here no doubt
to jam Sound of Hope; certainly not a Cuban relay as someone presumed.
Nothing heard on 6970 at earlier check 2305 UT March 6 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6000, March 7 at 0648, RHC English but undercurrent talk in
Spanish, probably also RHC. Not QRM or overload crossmod, but same
transmitter. Not the case on 6100, 6165 with English only; while 6060
is off already. Can`t compare to Rebelde since 5025 is also off.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba/RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9590-, March 6 at 1959, S7-S8 of something undermodulated,
and slightly on the low side. Only listed is Cairo in Russian, 125 kW
at 5 degrees, 1900-2000. I was tuning around for something similar to
the unID open carrier I was getting on 9625 until 1957* but this is
unlike (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA [non]. 9910, Thu March 7 at 1313, TWR closing unknown S Asian
language and off 1314*. But wait, I still hear the TWR music-box IS on
a much weaker signal.

EiBi shows at 1245-1315 the language is KBO, BOTH from GUAM and
ARMENIA, but it must really be either-or. Aoki shows KTWR Guam until
1314, then TWR India via Yerevan-Gavar, Armenia from 1315 in MAI. WRTH
shows the full names of languages are Kokborok and Maithili. This
applies to M-F only. I can easily believe that I was hearing Guam at
first, then Armenia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 6085, Thursday March 7 at 1300, Sea Breeze
earnest YL opening weekly English, alarm SFX, S7 and too weak to copy;
from Yamata, JAPAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9985, March 7 at 1553, no signal from Radio Free
Asia in Korean via Saipan, or anywhere; while 9965 has a VG signal
from Palau. Bill Harms in Maryland, who speaks Korean, had noticed RFA
Korean reactivated on a frequency fallow since Saipan & Tinian sites
were destroyed by typhoon last fall. After some prodding, RFA HQ sent
him a QSL with SAIPAN checked for 9985, which he had heard Feb 23 at
1530, and also Feb 27 at 2100-2130. But not on any other frequencies.

The temporary? reactivation of this service on SW was apparently
prompted by the Kim/Trump ``summit`` in Hanoi. 9985 was previously
scheduled as Tinian at 15-19 & 21-22. Notwithstanding the QSL, a copy
of which Bill sent me, I still have my doubts that Saipan has been
repaired enough to get back on the air. USAGM was attempting to get
permission to use Tinang, Philippines after the typhoon; it had been
forbidden to do so in any language (while VOA Korean et al. was OK).

The cagey QSL card also has xmtr boxes available to be checked labeled
``Other`` and ``Asia``. If they were using Tinang, Philippines, they
are probably not going to admit it, pace Duterte. Does anyone have any
hard info about whether the NMI sites Saipan or Tinian are back in
service at all? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALI. 5995, March 6 at 2305, no signal from ORTM. AFAIK no one has
heard anything from ORTM or the CRI relays since they came back on
March 2-4, right? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5-WBFM, March 7 at 1442 UT, KOCD Okeene is *still*
cutting on for 7 seconds, OFF for 25 seconds, over and over for at
least the third day in a row --- probably much longer before I first
noticed March 5 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1972 monitoring: confirmed
Wednesday March 6 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S7-S8; and 4 seconds later on
WBCQ 7490.17, S9+10. (Both change to 2100 as of next week due to
imposition of DST.)

Also confirmed UT Thursday March 7 at 0000 on WRMI 7730, VG but some
fades around the middle, and played complete to 0029 unlike last two
weeks.

Also confirmed UT Thursday March 7 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, poor-fair.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6175-USB, March 7 at 0646, 2-way in unknown language,
INTRUDERS; no sign of any AM broadcaster on this or adjacent
frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9625, March 6 at 1945, open carrier at S9+10, the second
SSOB, only after blaster 9475 WTWW. 1952 & 1956 brief hi-pitched tones
on and off; 1957* carrier off.

First of all, we can rule out the imaginary HFCC registration for VOR
Moskva at 1600-2000! What else? In HFCC, Eibi and Aoki, nothing before
2000, but NHK Yamata is supposed to start at 2000; and Turkey in
French at 2030 --- but normally Emirler runs unscheduled frequencies
after rather than before. So 9625 could be a test-only frequency for
anystation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
