** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 18 at 1508, another Saturday broadcast succeeds from LRA36, good S5-S7 via Brasil SDR: at first I camp on somebody in Pittsburgh, at 1525 from queue get on it myself. Usual stuff: song at first, 1509 ID for original Wednesday program outro with credits, as if off until next Wednesday with `El Lejano Sur`, 1510 Antártida song, 1514 more music; 1544 ``sign-on`` with multi-lingual ID including English to inform us that this is in Spanish. The last language continues to confound: it seems to begin with ``Govorit``, obviously Russian, but ends with ``imnida``, obviously Korean. 1548 Antda song again, YL sign-on with current temps: max -7 C, min -12 C - not too bad; has been colder than that here. Bit of ``Blanco, blanco y más blanco`` tune, historical item about a flight to the South Pole on Sept. 19, 1974; 1625 still, mostly songs; 1649 check, it`s gone already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA [non]. Any RNASG? Did not get around to checking for LRA36 this Wednesday Sept 22 until 1608 UT: NO signal on 15475.98-RCUSB into Brasil SDR. Has it come and gone already; did anyone hear it or try to earlier? Yes: Sam Sánchez, Oregon replies on WOR iog: ``Subject: Re: [WOR] Antarctica today? --- I caught them today via Brazil SDR around 1550 UTC, off at the top of the hour-ish. Nothing via Iceland. Sorry for the inexact times - I was multi-tasking. ;-)`` Then I tuned down to 15475.00-USB to detect a reduced carrier if any, none, but at 1609 Sept 22 there is very brief 2-way in Spanish INTRUDING on that exact frequency. Will leave it there for a while. Another longer contact at 1617, but colloquial and can`t understand. Probably these nothing to do with Antarctica (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ARGENTINA [non]. 9395, Sept 21 at 0100, RAE via WRMI, Fernando Farías opening a ``new`` ATTW program, dated Wed Sept 8! Of course it seems new to you when recording, but not when played back 13 days later. Weekly? What happened to last week`s show? Also claims to be on 5800 --- NOT! RTI Taiwan is there. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 9665.968V, Sept 22 at 2354, gospel huxter in Brazuguese, S5-S8; RVM is edging closer & closer to a full kHz off nominal. Frequency wobbling slightly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 6070-, Sept 21 at 0614 UT, CFRX talk show about the Canadian elexion -- first I had heard about it, not via US media. iHeart Radio ID into break, but surely the Canadian version. Equal or better signal than 6060 RHC, which is not humbuzzy, despite only 1 kW vs 100 or 250? 6070 also always perceptibly off-frequency-minus in USB 1-kHz step tuning by het pitch on 6069, compared to 6059, but not measured exactly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 6754-USB, Sept 16 at 0133, CHR Trenton Military is on tonight with VOLMET for Zagreb, Split... Are these and other odd locations in Europe of particular interest to RCAF? It appears that any flights succeed during weeks CHR is gone (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 15034-USB, Sept 20 at 1509, CHR Trenton Military is gone again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 15034-USB, Sept 21 at 1938, CHR, Trenton Military with No Report Received, from Lajes; on but JBA, weaker than e.g. CHU 14670-RCUSB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 10960, Sept 17 at 1451, JBA Chinese with heavy flutter; and 12500, slightly better S7-S9 with flutter, each the only CNR1 jammer signals on their band areas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, Sept 20 at 2323-2327, finds only one VP/JBA signal in each out-of-band area: 13130 JBA Chinese with heavy flutter; 14980 and 16100 JBA. All fit as jammers of SOH in Aoki. But none audible in the 10-11 area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 6165, Sept 20 at 0300, RHC is absent, leaving 6159.949 WBCQ with Area 51 JL and then WOR, in the clear! Splashless. RHC not on alt. 6145 either. However by 0352 RHC back on 6165 doing its usual damage. Meanwhile, VOT English 0300 broadcast was audible on 6165. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Sept 20 at 2330, RHC Spanish S8 but suptorted; 15730 in Portuguese is S6-S7 somewhat distorted but not suppressed. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EAST TURKISTAN. 15245, Sept 20 at 1508, S7-S9 W&M talk with heavy flutter. Both V of Korea and CRI are scheduled this hour in English, but accents seem Americanish rather than stilted, so I assume CRI, which is more day-path than from Korea North; via Urumqi in the land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems, BTW, would you believe that on 15240, Aoki is still listing R. Munansi, the clandestine for Uganda via WWRB? It`s been gone for more than three years (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ETHIOPIA [and non]. 7110, Sept 21 at 0356, Horn-of-Africa music, 0359 announcement, IS? repeating a few times; 0400 three bells and continuous talk, presumably news on the hour. This first appeared Sept 6 per IARU Intruder Watch, and then a lengthy discussion of what it could be - Somalia? Eritrea? Ethiopia. Some recognized it as R. Ethiopia. In Europe they were mostly reporting it after 1800. Ron Howard has had it in California by longpath circa 1500. I figured it might sign on at 0300, but nothing yet. Then saw someone reported it starting at 0400, but as above, already on before then today. WRTH 2021 shows NO SW frequencies for EBC/R. Ethiopia, the main government station, tho there are for various regionals on the 6 MHz band. I`m getting it first via Maryland remote at S5-S6, and then UTwente S9/+10. Intermittent LSB QRhaM in the exclusive ``40m`` hamband worldwide. From 0412 a Slavic ham overrides it on same frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KASHMIR [non]. 15170, Tue Sept 21 at 1503, confirmed another weekly emission of Kashmir Civitas clandestine, S9/+10 into UTwente. In urgent Urdu, undercurrent strumming. Several mentions of Jammu & Kashmir. Abrupt English verbiage inserted, 1509 ``we are dedicated to accept --- justice``; 1515 ``according to charter of the United Nations --- occupying force``. 1516 chanting alternating with cries of ``Azam`` = freedom. 1529 ending with disrupted ROMANIA IS once and off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6975-USB, Sept 19 at 0008, strong pirate must have just come on, big band music, 0011 Wolverine Radio ID. HFU already reports songs with ``Out`` in their titles. https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,86541.0.html 6960-AM, Sept 19 at 0009, JBA pirate, S3-S4.

Tnx to tips on the WOR iog from Rick Barton, AZ; and employing various different SDRs, Eric Fetters-Walp, WA, and Walt Salmaniw, BC. BTW, altho no one seems to mention it now, his identity is a matter of public record from the FCC bust notice of December 31, 2014, about Martin K. Elliott, then in InyoKern CA, per: http://transition.fcc.gov/eb/FieldNotices/2003/DOC-331583A1.html tho trying that now, it is ``temporarily unavailable``. But preserved in DXLD 15-04 under USA, not N America: https://www.w4uvh.net/dxld1504.txt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6940-USB, Sept 22 at 2358, dense rock music at S8-S9; 2405 YL ID as Mix Radio, International. 6940-6945 area is normally avoided due to ute bonker circa 6942 but none of that now.

Included in FM DX-pedition report under U S A. ** OKLAHOMA. RF 15, Sept 19 at 1512 UT, there goes another `open` TVDX frequency. TBN for OKC, originally RF 14 in NTSC analog, is finally back on air as DTV, steady strong 700 kW KTBO signal with this PSIP lineup: 14-1, TBN HD 14-2, Hillsng 14-3, Smile 14-4, Enlace 14-5, POSITV same as already displayed by rabbitears.info. I`ve told Trip he can remove the X for not on the air. Main TBN channel had been carried on an LPTV I can`t get without tropo help, no longer necessary. RF 14, meanwhile, is still open here, where KOCY ``48`` is supposed to have a 15 kW LPTV, Estrella TV, despite already being on the high-power KTUZ RF 29 transmitter, so who needs RF 14? Could maybe be on, but invisible here without tropo help. Trip`s coverage map shows it direxional south, not helpful here to the NNW (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Sept 17 after 2200, another try to hear RNE English this Friday, but signal direct is VP; 15520 away from us is slightly better; 11940 is OFF again; 11670 VP like 17855. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas. But at 2227 came this to the WOR iog: ``17855 --- I was looking forward to hearing a bit of RNE in English. It looks like Radio Taiwan International in Spanish is now occupying the frequency with 20 over S9 signal. Always good to have a chance to work on my Spanish though. Doug White, KA5ETS, Carrboro, NC`` I replied: ``Doug, Are you sure about that? Don`t see how it could happen. I was also trying to listen at 2200, but unusually 17855 was barely audible. 15520 a bit better, 11940 no signal, 11670 VP too. {see below} Checking several ENAm remotes after 2315, still something on 17855 but can`t even be sure of language. By now Spain would be // on 11940 if it were on the air, so nothing to compare it with. 11670 after 2300 is Cuba, not Spain. Music 2343 not // Castilian? talk JBA on 17855 into Bonaire. 17855 at 2330 with a timesignal typical of Spain on half-hours. I would not be quick to decide 17855 is gone for season, but whatever it is, certainly almost gone today.`` 17855 is down to a JBA carrier into remotes before 2400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN [non]. Re previous report about someone hearing TAIWAN in Spanish on REE 17855 frequency: later suggests it was probably 7780 via WRMI at 2200 as scheduled, his SDR display messed up (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 20 after 2200, token M/W/F English from REE this Monday: 11940 back on air to SAm, good strength, but ailing with modulation distorted and breaking up! Second only to 17855 VG to NAm. 15520 to ME is unusually JBA, allowing poor 11670 for Af to rate as better rather than worst. All via Maryland SDR, which gets them all better than I in deep North America. Recheck direct at 2355, 17855 has faded to a JBA carrier, 15520 & 11670 are off, leaving us nothing but the very distorted 11940 at S2-S5. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Sept 21 at 2211, this REE, for S America, in OK modulation unlike yesterday; overall, it`s #3, weaker than 15520 for ME, weaker than #1, 17855 VG to NAm; but stronger than #4, 11670 JBA for Africa. But no English on a Tuesday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 11940, Wed Sept 22 at 2200, same via Maryland and UTwente SDRs, this is the only useful frequency for token English, but it`s distorted like on Monday, not Tuesday. It`s more tolerable in AM mode than in SSB. 11670 is JBA and no better into Kuwait or S Africa; while 17855 and 15520 are inaudible at all locations, likely off the air rather than MUFed out. First news about the La Palma volcano; 2208 feature interview with a woman from Colombia who studied film scoring in Boston and now is in Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 17 at 2211, VOT English direct is VP but clear of RTTY if tuned in LSB only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6165, Sept 20 at 0310, VOT English to S Asia, normally blocked by RHC English, but that`s absent and not on 6145 either.

VOT also INTRUDING on // 7275 to NAm (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 22 at 2210, VOT English already with 2-minute filler of multilingual IDs, 2222 `Feeling Supreme` seems to be program name; then a commentary another announcer is having trouble reading in English. But signal is super into UTwente: S9+55! by the time it gets into Maryland, only S9/+10 but still plenty, no QRM audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K. 15660, Sept 19 at 1852, S9/+20. African language lo-fi on phone then hi-fi from studio. Aoki shows VOA Amharic via Woofferton daily. 15510, Sept 19 at 1853, equivalent signal to VOA 15660, per Aoki IBRA Radio, R. Sama in Arabic via Woofferton. Both among the strongest on band, rivaled only by 15140 Cuba, much greater than WRMI or WWCR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U K [non]. 11825, Sept 20at 2333, something in English, poor S0-S2. Listed this hour only BBC via Tinang, PHILIPPINES for Indonesia. That`s nice but I daresay there are more English speaking listeners over here, far from armchair (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2103 monitoring: confirmed UT Thursday September 16 at 0030 on new WRMIs: 9455, S9+15/20 direct; and 9395, S9+25/30 direct, louder and stronger. As usual, this is odd since at NW we are roughly halfway between the WNW and NNW azimuths for these, but they do not arrive equally sounding.

IRRS had advised that effective immediately, the 7290 SW broadcast would be Friday at 1815 instead of Saturday at 1800. Fri Sept 17, I tune in early via UTwente, hearing the usual weak Chinese including its timesignal at 1800, apparently off around 1805. So no longer an overlap problem with it. About *1808 the IRRS open carrier is on at S8-S9; still gets some splatter from 7275 and/or 7300 but co- and immediate-adjacents are clear of QRM. No Aida or IRRS sign-on, but at 1814:51 cut on rock music in progress, with hard to understand DJ announcements, maybe as CPN? 1824 Radio ?something. Meanwhile at 1821 I confirmed via Noale remote that 918 kHz from Italy was //, no WOR either. I notified IRRS, but no reply yet as to what happened or to reconfirm whether WOR is still supposed to run Fridays at 1815. Something`s always wrong at --- WORLD OF RADIO.

[that is UT Friday; yes, there was a bit of music, Greece interval signal at the middle of WOR 2104 --- gh] Details: 0130-0159, static, 0159, 5850 kHz, Sept 17 UTC 2021 [Fri] 0130-0159, static QRN, other QRN, 9395 kHz, QSB fading very shaky, 9395 kHz, s9 signal, 0159, 9395 kHz, Sept 18 UTC 2021 [Sat] 2230-2259, QSB fading, static QRN, 9955 kHz, s7 signal, 2259, 9955 kHz, Sep 19 UTC 2021 [Sun] 0030-0059, Static noise, 7730 kHz, 0044, 0053 s8, s9 signal, 0059, 7730 kHz, Sep 19 UTC 2021 [Sun] 0030-0059, QRN, 9395 kHz, 0044 (half way mark), 7730 kHz, 0058 s 9 signal (45343), 0059, 7730 kHz, Sep 20 UTC 2021 [Mon] 5850 kHz, 1030, 1031 (45443), lousy reception, 1059, 5850 kHz, Sep 22 UTC 2021 [Wed] (Lemke, Richard -AB)`` Confirmed here, Wed Sept 22 at 1045 the 1030 on WRMI 5850, VG direct as I happen to awaken -- and I belatedly notice that in the mid-break, I mess up my own address, PO Box number as ``6184`` instead of 1684!! Am I becoming lysdexic? Am I losing it? This bodes ill for continuing to broadcast a program full of numbers. I hope no one really try to reach me at that misbox! But no one else has noticed? Also confirmed Wed Sept 22 direct at 2100 on WRMI 7780, JBA VP S5-S7; 21 seconds later on WBCQ 7489.9v, also S5-S7 but by 2128 the latter has improved to S8/S9+5. Next, and last: 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW [news] 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts: http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support; thanks this week to Robert W.

Thanks again for all you do to keep the radio community informed of the latest developments covering short wave, medium wave and FM!`` One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat Sept 18 from 0000, WBCQ webcast of `AAAWWW`, this or other SW frequencies not even checked. Complaints, complaints. WBCQ is being persecuted over free speech by the federal government; Democrats are Communists, Trump is President, etc., etc. Angela`s Angle is about rent payments and landlords, blame the government for the situation. Computer for email is acting up, being hacked right now? 0030 finally datestamp as 17 of September, YOOLF 2021; now from Studio 9 in Deland of Fla, where 7490 is being monitored at S9+40; 93 -- ``7490`` [sic] is pinning the meter, S9+60 or 80. Yes, SuperStition is back on air. With ``Worlds Last Chance and WBCQ Radio programming`` -- [Really, since the Sunday night tests??? which luckily included WOR for once]. Visited TOM on the way ``up`` [to Florida]: the saints, they are blessed and wonderful. Rejects complaints that WBCQ is ``too white``. Allan says he has ``seen and heard demons``, anti-Satan sermon. 0041 asks for emails. Then reads entire article about SW from Radio World by James Careless; Allan interjects ``don`t forget Glenn Hauser, World of Radio`` --- as J.C. never did mention us. 0056 a couple far-right e-mails, the first from one Patrick; 0059 prayer, 0101 into Hal Turner. John Carver`s version: ``Tonight's show started on time on 4790, 6160 and 7490. Allan and Angela in the studio. After quick mic check program starts off with Angela's Angle which is about landlords doubling and tripling rents on apartments and forcing people out of their apartments. Money allotted to pay landlords during the Covid crises never actually made it to the landlords and ended up elsewhere so landlords come up the losers. Quickly turned into an indictment of the communist, socialist Democrats. Then jabs at electric cars, ending of fossil fuels within ten years etc. Allan then announces that they are in the studio in Fla now and that the superstation is working just fine. Then a short sermon from Rev. Al. His words, not mine. Reading of an article from Radio World about the tech of shortwave nowadays at 0042. Reading of emails at 0055. Closing prayer at 0059 and program off at 0101. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Sept 19 at 0028, WTWW-2 has already started `Theatre Organ Under The Arch`, so I switch immediately to $tereo webcast where it runs until Tedad at 0052, so started circa 0021 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7505, Sept 21 at 0103 and 0330, WRNO New Orleans is still OFF. Have not checked every night, but believe gone since Hurricane Ida hit August 29 - more than two sesquiweeks; still out of power or was there more damage? Surely they will inform faithful listener what`s going on at really weird website http://www.wrnoworldwide.com --- NOT, but refers to ``upcoming`` shows in July 2021 and on another page to shows in January, April and October *2023* --- that`s confident, but not gospel huxters, rather Euro music?? The page is https://vice.qantumthemes.xyz/classic/events/ such as `Electro Technos` which would appear extraneous but linked directly from WRNO site and with the same rolling landscape background; and the listen linx don`t work. O well, Joe Costello`s legacy still provides some amusing lunacy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130 kHz, Sept 16 at 1439 UT check, KLEY Wellington KS is still on with S9+20 of steady deady air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130, Sept 17 at 2255 UT check, surprise! KLEY Wellington KS after a full week of open carrier day and night, is again filling its dead air with musical modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130, Sept 18 at 0603 UT tune-in just as ID comes from ``KLEY, 1130-AM and 100.3 FM, Wellington`` Kansas, atop the channel with its ``one watt`` night power, really 250 W day power, but considerable QRM from KWKH et al. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) more below ** U S A. 1130, Sept 19 at 1645 UT, KLEY Wellington KS is still managing to modulate, rock music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. `DX-pedition` about 30 km north of Enid on US 81/64/60, checking AM & FM for anything unusual away from the noise and overload of the city, on caradio, Sept 18, 1752-1850 UT: 630, Sept 18 at 1755 UT, JBA football? and ad/promo mentioning ``Kay-how``: KHOW Denver CO on daytime groundwave; 5 kW, weaker than regular 50 kW 670 KLTT; but 560, 5 kW KLZ not heard with less favorable N/S pattern even tho KWTO MO makes it not either. 850 has JBA signal, could be KOA or KJON TX. Meanwhile nothing from Chicago 670 or 720 which on a good very quiet day can reach here. 1370, Sept 18 at 1752 UT, environmental PSAs, one for earthshare.org. Must be KGNO Dodge City KS at full power now, which I can`t get inside Enid, with desensitization from 1390 KCRC. 1550, Sept 18 at 1753 UT, still can`t confirm KKLE Winfield KS, despite being this much closer to it; JBA signal with sports? presumably KYAL Sapulpa OK. But there is also some CCI, probably KDCC Dodge City KS rather than KMAD Madill OK. Meanwhile sibling to KKLE, 1130 KLEY Wellington KS is still modulating rock loud and clear. 94.3, Sept 18 circa 1830 UT, Enid KLGB-LP is far enough away to be getting some CCI, surely KCVW Kingman KS, 100/100 kW, west of Wichita halfway to Pratt on US 54, a Bott gospel huxter while KLGB is mostly gospel rock. As we pass by it on US81 back into Enid, KLGB overrides many other FM frequencies for a few blox. 100.1, Sept 18 at 1806 UT, ending ONN news, but signal has been alternating with weaker CCI, just like an Esporadic opening, except there isn`t any. And the car is parked immobile. It`s just the turbulent troposphere. Main one soon IDs as ``100.1 KWFX`` and into country music. The CCI may be a stupid ballgame, as Saturday afternoon is full of FB even on non-sports stations breaking music or other talk formats. No likely peripheral fully desportive stations. What could the CCI be? No significant Kansans. In OK, closest KYFM Bartlesville, AC format 25/25 kW; or never logged KYKC Byng - near Ada, country, 50/50 kW. Also translators in Edmond, Chickasha. 1817, fuller ID ``100,000 watts of Spirit Country, 100.1 KWFX``, i.e. omitted CoL, Woodward OK. This too is tough inside Enid with local LPFM on 99.9; and so is 101.1 KWOX Woodward with KGWA translator on 100.9 --- no longer mislisted as silent in the WTFDA FM DB. But here`s another mistake: ``K262CQ KLEY-1130 100.1 WELLINGTON KS USA ADULT CONTEMPORARY 100.3 THE WAVE 0.25 0.25 0.0 0.0 37-14-28 97-24-04`` ! This 100.3 station which relates to the reactivated 1130 is axually filed under 100.1, not 100.3! The channel 262 callsign also goes with 100.3, not with 100.1 like another translator which is a `261. Remotely possible is a frequency change in progress, without being re-called yet. As for the 0.0 and 0.0 meter antenna heights, not really on the ground, but unknown HAAT default all too frequently displayed. 102.9, Sept 18 at 1822 UT, ``Country 102.9``, mother DJ says she brings daughter to work, refers to ``Hutch`` which I guess is localese for Hutchinson KS, but also to callsign KHUT, 99/99 kW. Another one blocked inside Enid, by local 103.1 KOFM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic [and non], JBA MW carrier search Sept 16 at 0601-0606: 621, 684, 711, 747, 774-(2), 837, 846-Kiritimati, 855, 882(2), 936, 999, 1116, 1125(2), 1134(2), 1215, 1269, 1413 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 18 at 0606-0610 UT, not in the order tuned: 684, 711, 774(2), 846, 882, 1098, 1107, 1125, 1305, 1413, 1503(2) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 19 at 0625-0630 UT: 621, 684, 747(2), 837, 882, 1116, 1179, 1413 -- but no sign of 846, Kiritimati off? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic just barely audible MW carrier search, Sept 20 at 0640: 621, 711, 747(2), 846, 1125, 1413. Most likely NW Africa/Spain except 846 Kiritimati (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1710, Sept 19 at 0630 UT, JBA talk, presumably a TIS. The one most reported is WQFG689, Hudson County NJ, with beefed-up power for COVID info loops. Ordinarily on 1710 I get nothing but JBA carrier(s) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6150-USB, Sept 20 at 2336, weak 2-way INTRUDER in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7868.5-USB, Sept 22 at 0635, weak 2-way in Spanish, only one side heard, mentions ``la droga`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 13530, Sept 17 at 1412, S9+20 steady open carrier where I sometimes hear a CNR1 jammer, but certainly not now. QRMs CODAR, off at 1453 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 13700, Sept 20 at 2326-2327* seems Chinese not // CNR1 jammers, off soon after tune-in. Nothing listed now but CNR-13 starting at 2355 per Aoki & EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
