** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, this Saturday July 24 at 1446 and later chex, NO signal from LRA36 into Campo or Pardinho SDRs in Brasil. Had been repeating the Wednesday broadcast on Sat circa 14-16 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, July 28 at 1417, LRA-36 is back on this Wednesday after missing Saturday. Tune-in to military band and vocal, sounds like some kind of anthem. Usual fare, mostly music with frequent canned IDs. Listening first as a camper on someone in Moscow tuned exactly via Pardinho, Brasil, SDR but VP signal vs local line noise level. Recheck at 1513 I get on it direct, but slightly better S/N level at Campo, Brasil SDR, still VP. 1528 the Antártida song starts as if closing down, but 1532 continues with other music past 1540+ tune-out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BIAFRA [non].

Appears opening varies widely ~0530/0630~ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2096) ** CONGO. 6115, Sunday July 25 at 0613, JBA carrier presumed R. Congo. I was with BFO listening for it to cut on before 0600, but nothing by when I quit until recheck. Oh2, here`s something else on 6115 per ``Manuel Méndez, Lugo, Spain, Log in Friol: GERMANY, 6115, Radio Mi Amigo, Kall Krekel, on air today 25-07 earlier than 0420 UT, when the signing on usual time of this station is 0700.

However, Harold Frodge in MI and Walt Salmaniw, BC were not hearing a bit of it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CONGO. 6115, July 26 at 0556, JBA carrier, presumed R. Congo on earlier tonight. Yes, in fact Manuel Méndez, Spain later reports it from *0522 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, July 22 at 0627, RHC English is nothing but humbuzz here; 6165 & 6000 & 5040 are off; only 6100 is sufficient. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, July 24 at 0636, RHC English on humbuzzy transmitter back here instead of 6060 which is off along with 6000, while 6165 is on and nominal. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13700, July 24 at 1259, RHC frequency announcement far out of date, claiming to be on 9650, etc. At least no spurs today on 13 MHz. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, July 25 at 0605, RHC in wrong language, news in Spanish instead of English; only 6165 in English; 6000 & 5040 off; 6060 JBA carrier, what else if not Cuba? Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, July 26 at 0556, S9+10/20 of dead air in English from RHC; 6165 and 5040 are off; 6060 DA with humbuzz; only 6000 remains, wrapping up English at 0557 and no doubt about to go off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11880, July 26 at 2318 and later, NO signal from RHC English hour. A perfect excuse, besides ``something`s always wrong at RHC`` for my annual sarcastic Tribute to The Revolution: ``Patria o Suerte, ¡Pensaremos!``. I am still awaiting visual proof of this slogan scrawled on a surface anywhere on Cuba. Ahora más que nunca (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5025, July 27 at 0238, R. Rebelde with S9+20 of dead air. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. 4765 and 5040 are nominal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, July 27 at 0635, RHC English is S9/+10 but JBM here under humbuzz. Unusually, 6100 and 6165 are still on, S9+10/20 sufficient, and S9+20/30 OK. At 0637, I find 5040 on but in Spanish, S9+10/20. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5025, July 27 at 0638, R. Rebelde like at 0238 is still dead air, or maybe trace of sup-torted modulation. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11880, July 28 at 2301, RHC English is not missing today, S9/+20 but undermodulated and lightly distorted; seems // on 5040 buried in the noise. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [non]. 7345-AM, July 28 at 0142, R. Martí in AM instead of DRM: maybe decided under circumstances another AM frequency would be more useful than throwing it away on DRM which no one is listening to, especially inside Cuba. Also on 7365, 7335, 6030, 5980 for a total of five instead of three. Much stronger on the 7s atop any jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, July 27 at 1515, JBA carrier direct, but at 1521 via UTwente, usual bigsig S9+25 of Tuesday-only clandestine, Kashmir Civitas, via ROMANIA, exaggerated hypo-bass voice with strumming background, presumably Urdu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KUWAIT. 15514.706 & 15530: July 24 at 0510, Paul Walker in AK reported R. Kuwait on 15515 in English instead of Arabic. I check at 0519, RK in Arabic, but that`s just Qur`an, then English version and soon song in English. Tuned via UTwente, it`s 15514.706 and very distorted S9. Much clearer English but somewhat distorted still, on 15530 S9+25, which is also splattering between 15500 and 15560. But 15514.706 would be a separate transmitter and not a spur of 15530. 0530 ID as 963 MW, 96.3 FM, 11970 [sic, only!] for S&SE Asia, then show ``The Noble Women of Islam`` with plenty of PBUH`s. Allah`ll get `em unless they add that every time Mohamed be mentioned. Are any other mere mortals eligible for such kind wishes? This is part of a long series about Islam, with music bits, until 0544 back to pop/rock music. A song in English starts at 0558 and keeps going across ToH until 0602 anti-fire PSA, be careful with kitchen appliances; more music until abrupt cut at 0606 to join news in progress! about Cyprus, 6.7 earthquake near Luzon, etc. Weather: today`s high 49! And it`s now 41 (= F 120 and 106 degrees). 0611 back to Western pop/rock music; 0619 ``greatest hits of all time station``, so plugged into a US syndicator? COVID-19 PSA much like heard on Voice of Turkey; 0610 ``Can`t Take My Eyes Off of You`` song, more music until 0628 tune-out from UTwente. As expected, checked direct at 0632, no trace of either signal into OK (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO [and non]. Spurred by a ~98 MHz sporadic E MUF patch circa halfway between OK and Yucatán, I start FM DXing from the car in garage July 24 at 1727, times always UT: tuning upward, nothing unusual until 95.3, Some Spanish music CCI to KOKC OKC translator. Also at 1732 with a .mx website. Also at 1747 Mexmx and hyper DJ; 1758 Spanish music CCI but gone by 1800. Too many possibilities without something more definite, but if it be Yucatán or Quintana Roo, there are: XHMH-FM relay of:AM 970 95.3 MÉRIDA YUC MEX Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN CANDELA FM 25.0 25.0 107.0 107.0 20-57-58 89-37-27 --- [1893 km = 1176 mi] or XHROO-FM 95.3 CHETUMAL QROO MEX Spanish Top 40 - SPANISH/ENGLISH KISS FM 9.24 9.24 106.0 106.0 18-31-19 88-17-19 --- [2200 km = 1367 mi] But then I have a definite Q.R. on 97.5 below, so XHROO more likely 97.3 at 1728, Mexican political PSA with rapid disclaimer tag; mentions ``NCN`` or something similar which does not lead to any ID. At 1733, timecheck for 12:33 so is on UT -5 = CDT = HCM de verano, i.e. most of México. Or it could be Quintana Roo, which stays on UT -5 = EST yearound. Adstring and I think an ID in passing but faded. 1734 another TC, for 12:34, ads; 1738 CCI from another Mexican with music. 93.7 at 1736, Spanish with a caller overrides KSPI Stillwater OK; 1750 Mexmx CCI. Too many possibilities. 93.1 at 1737, Mexmx CCI to Kansas; and 1751 Spanish inviting contacts from either side of the border; so on the border? Maybe: XHAAA-FM 93.1 REYNOSA TAMPS MEX Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA CALIENTE 50.0 50.0 159.0 159.0 26-04-38 98-17-15 9301 - 'WXPX' XHAAA - LA Caliente XHAAA - LA Caliente - Song/Artist [1147 km = 712 mi] 94.1 at 1741, Mexmx, ``control remoto``, ``La Caliente 94.1``. CCI from other Spanish music. This is the only Caliente, and none spelt Kaliente; BTW no $tereo heard and no icon, so maybe really mono since it`s relaying an AM station. [Which raises the question, in USA, is it kosher for an FM translator of a mono AM station to be $tereo?]: XET-FM relay of:AM 1450 94.1 MONTERREY NL MEX Spanish GRUPERA LA CALIENTE 25.0 25.0 -51.0 -51.0 25-39-25 100-17-58 9410 - 'WYAI' XET-FM XET-FM LA CALIENTE --- 1071 km - 666 mi 97.5 at 1745, Spanish, ``Máxima FM``, 1736 ``Número Uno, Máxima FM``. Searching the WTFDA FMDB on maxima: no hits without the accent even tho accents do not appear on the slogan search field; and lower case is autoconverted to upper. But this is it: XHCAN-FM 97.5 CANCÚN QROO MEX HD Spanish CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO MÁXIMA 3.0 3.0 109.0 109.0 21-09-47 86-51-02 3080 - 'KMIA' MAXIMA --- 2002 km = 1244 mi At 1800 I suspend as lunch awaits and also need to check web for WOR on IRRS. Resume at 1828, not much DX left but: 92.1 at 1830, Spanish CCI to KRMP OKC translator. 93.7 at 1832, again Spanish CCI to KSPI Stillwater. At 1842 I try changing from the car with vertical antenna only to south-facing porch, 96+ in the shade, with DX-398, with manipulable whip, but no DX: 95.3 at 1848, English rock CCI to KOKC translator: then Wichita Falls ad, so I now know what else might show on groundwave? There are no TX stations very close to WF, but KMGZ Lawton is the only other 95.3 OKie, only 14/14 kW. In TV terms, Lawton-Wichita Falls are a single bi-state market (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NETHERLANDS [non]. 5800, carrier offset +15/20 Hz, July 24 at 0200, as soon as WOR finishes on WRMI 9395 I tune to here, for another Europirate presented by Texas Radio Shortwave, this time Radio Monique. Opens and closes with YROT theme, but after a brief intro it`s nothing but the guest DJ, who has an exaggerated style and often finishes remarx with ``Oh, Babeh`` or something like that. I never could copy his name mentioned two or three times, but he was also with the original pirate station in the last century. A special show especially for America, so he will tell us what Europeans like and do not like about US. First tune is Dancing Queen, ABBA. Later thanks *Terry*, not Cap`n Ric, for arranging this. 1500 Dutch words are in American English, starting with Yankee. 0214 don`t like: Americans are non-social, racism, poverty, crazy cowboy gun laws; no one in Europe liked Trump, a total moron. Do like: Hollywood movies, etc. 0226 another song. email radiomoniqueradio@hotmail.nl and website is a blogspot but could not copy it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, July 25 at 0057, S9 reggae music, bet it`s Wolverine Radio: yes, 2-word ID right at ToH 0100.

Keyword theme this time is songs with ``In`` in the title! 6935-AM, July 25 at 0058, weak S6 music, 0102 unreadable announcement maybe including ``form``, more music. Many logs here as Black Star Radio: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,84317.0.html 6974.9-AM, July 25 at 0059, JBA music presumed Nowhere Radio which seems to be on almost every night; more unID logs until finally someone got the ID: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,84313.0.html Also JBA carrier on 6970, maybe Fox ``news`` relay as before. 6954.98-USB, July 25 at 0103, S9 distorted music, just came on, not before 0100; 0106-0106.5 pause which would have been just right for a full ID, but silence until blues music resume.

No, there was a not a farewell show for Alison Hughes, as things have been rather hectic. She started in 1990, took a break and came back 12/13 years ago. He will invite her back as a guest. Luís Martín, head of the external service, also took early retirement in February; and there is also a new head of the entire RTVE. Was going to play some music for this Alan, Blas Picón of blues harmonica who just appeared 11 July in Madrid. Boogie-woogie, plays at 2222 ``If You`re Not Around``; 2226 also acknowledges reply from Rodney Johnson thanking Coe for previously acknowledging his mail. Another showname suggestion: ``REEDX``. [But it`s NOT a DX program; how about ``Spainal-bag``? Nah?] Starts playing another music for him but only time for a semiminute of something about Chicago until timesignal, off and away. Also, Justin doesn`t know who in the large organization is sending out QSLs. Anyhow, so far our WOR iogroupies are batting 100% as only subjects of the mailbag. Or belay that, silly ballgame reference. I`m listening via Virginia remote, always better than direct to deep North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, July 26 after Spain dispenses with English at 2230 I tune the Virginia remote to VOT, sufficient but not as good. Mostly music, but at 2237 the COVID PSA plays, still that ancient outdated recording, ``vaccine yet to be found``; but if anyone believe that, it may impel more cautious behaviour. Sign-off announcement at 2249 has crosstalk from something, sounds like Brother Hystairical expostulating, maybe remote receiver overload.

I think 3265 has been gone for several days; will that turn into months again? Olympic opening ceremonies are my main attention, so I am not listening closely but let it run. Quite a bit of talk about vaccinations. Allan respects and gets them, Angela grudgingly and suspiciously. He was about to update us on the SuperStition but a phone call interrupted, and I never heard him get back to that. I saw a report somewhere that 9330 is running the big antenna from an old transmitter, altho I also recall that AW said when it started that that combo would be incompatible. 0037 Tim calls again this week, antivax stuff, refers to Alex Jones; he axually believes COVID vax cause abortions, autism, have mercury and aluminum in them. He gets 5 minutes this time before Allan manages to cut him off. 0044 a parody history lesson, and how inventions of beer and the wheel led to everything else in civilization. Also a put-down of Liberals vs conservatives. 0053 a caller points out that Brother Stair was a pedophile and there is video evidence; which Allan rejects as his good friend was never convicted. Not much e-mail, but prayer runs 3 minutes over into Hal Turner time. Here is John Carver`s version: ``Tonight's AAWWW started on time on 7490. 6160 was running something else for a few minutes. Allan says they're broadcasting on 4790, 6160 and 7490. Opening talk about how hot Angela is and then into the gardening work she's been doing around the station and the areas she's cleaning up. Allan says she has uncovered some junk cars that he will have to get out of there and then tells us it's nearly the law that every home in Maine have at least two junk cars somewhere on the property. Then talk of TV cameras and comparison to the camera's in dumbphones. Phone call at 0017 from Freddie to get the new frequency as he didn't write it down last week. Phone call at 0021 from Canada asking about the new frequency. Then back to dumbphones as the main topic of conversation and then a jump to vaccines. Phone call at 0036 from Tim talking about covid vaccine reactions. At 0044 he reads a political piece presented as humor about beer and the wheel. Phone call at 0051 goes on attack about the guy behind WLC and Allan gets upset. Then the guy jumps on Allan about backing Brother Stair. Angela is urging him to hang up on the guy but Allan lets the guy have it and tells him to remain civil and explains to the caller and then after the call that anyone can contact the station to state they don't agree with Allan's policies and as long as they remain civil Allan says he welcomes the calls. Phone rings again immediately and it's Tim again getting wound up to complain about things and Allan quickly gets him off the phone. Very brief reading of one email at 0058. Quick closing prayer at 0102 and then into Hal Turner at 0103.

It`s also on NPR via KOSU. Around 1645 UT, I make a quick AM & FM scan on portable radio getting only stronger signals, and not a single other radio station is to be heard carrying it.

Now that the 500 kW is broken, which could operate only on 9330, possibly WBCQ could attain this frequency with a more flexible ``classic`` transmitter? Or WLCR might activate it from some other relay (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 15705, July 26 at 1417, JBA signal. Neither Aoki nor EiBi has anything anywhen on 15705; but HFCC as of July 17 for entire A21 season shows: ``15705 1400 1500 43S,44S TRM 125 45 -30 217 1234567 280321 301021 D 13700 Cmn CLN AWR AWR 197 x219`` i.e. AWR in Chinese via Trincomalee, SRI LANKA; maybe recently activated? Or, but here`s another report of this from Dan Sheedy, CA, via Bob Wilkner, NASWA: ``15705 unID 1417-30, 1435-1459* 19 July. Mostly quiet Chinese chat with soft pop & piano background during some announcements (website info, closing remarks), audio off 1430-35 with carrier left on. Also heard roughly same times 18 July, but not heard on 20 July during checks at 1415, 1433. This sounds "SOH-ish" with the web info spelled out "xx O H..", not listed in Aoki/EiBi`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
