** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, again this Saturday, Oct 23, no signal from LRA36, checking from 1509 via Brasil SDR; first camping on another listener in Salem OR who has been hearing presumably nothing from quite a while earlier. When on, more likely Wednesdays now, nominal start is *1400 until 1600* but usually runs a bit, sometimes a lot, later, chopping off air without any formal closedown/signoff.

Slightly better than Pardinho at first, JBA at Campo. 1513 Antártida song, 1516 ID; 1527 Pardinho available and slightly better, S4-S5; often recommended west Iceland SDR at 1535 gets nothing but buzz. Usual mix of frequent IDs, brief talks, two theme tunes, variety of other music. 1558 ID, Pardinho improves to S5, less buzz; 1600 ID, historical; 1606 hielo song; 1609 La Radio Pública ID, music; 1617 ``Nacional Antártida Argentina, en todo el país, la radio pública`` fuller ID, music; 1621 contact info, ID; 1623 hielo song on `El Lejano Sur` program, past 1700 still music S5-S7; 1715 music sounds like it`s looping/vamping; 1721 hielo song, 1725 Antártida song, 1728 more music, still going as I tune out. How long more did they onstay? Sam Sánchez in Oregon was also hearing it earlier than usual at 1336 via Pardinho and also unusually with house music.

I take out the DX-398 which tunes below 530 kHz, and find there is NO signal on 341, no EI beacon ID, and not even a carrier. With internal antenna only, it does easily hear RG 350 in OKC and PN 515 in Ponca City.

My local beacon has been unheard for many weeks, tho checked almost every day and night. Of course it could have been turned on briefly in the middle of the night once, when I definitely was not listening. I just checked again and it is certainly not there --- also logged some other beacons on same frequency such as OIN in Kansas. I may go out to Woodring Airport with the portable to find whether there be any sign of it.

Must be from the China radio wars on 9680 & 9660 CNR1 echoing. At 1235 the 9670 signal suddenly surges as if powered up or antennaed up? To S9+25. Readout as only 4 Hz off-frequency-minus and modulation is also good and clear. Note from next week will be one real UT hour later, Sundays at 1330, possibly a different QRM situation. I wonder what else be on this test transmission Sundays only, but the schedule here is extremely uninformative, not even WOR: https://wmrieurope.com/wrmi_schedule/ Ha, note even they typed it wrmi by mistake. Next: 2000 UT Sunday IRRS 918-Italy 2230 UT Sunday WRMI 5950 to NNW 2230 UT Sunday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE 0030 UT Monday WRMI 7730 to WNW; 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW 0300vUT Monday WBCQ 6160v Area 51 to WSW 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW, 9455 to WNW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2109 monitoring. we were out getting vaccine booster, so could not check Sun Oct 24 at 2000 on IRRS via 918 kHz. Confirmed Sun Oct 24 at 2230 on WRMIs: 5950 S9+15, 9955 S8 both into Maryland SDR. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0030 on WRMIs: 7730 S9+10/15 into Missouri SDR; much louder than 9455 into same yet S9+12. 9395, S7 into Maryland. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0116, the 0100 on Global Community Radio webcast, supposedly relayed by some LP FM stations. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0130 on WRN North America webcast. Also confirmed UT Mon Oct 25 at 0300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160-, JBA into MD & MO SDRs, offset -50 Hz = 6159.950, and with ACI de RHC 6165 requiring LSB tuning. But by 0322, surged to S9/+12 into MD, still ACI.

WORLD OF RADIO 2109 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: 5850 kHz, at 1036 UT, 27 October. The signal 5850 kHz was gone and came on a bit late program #2109 was underway, I was up heard much of program, on 5850 kHz, at 1043 half way mark ID, the voice was down by a female, usual Wednesday morning at 1030 UTC, World of Radio #2109, they will be posted below the Details: 9395 kHz, QSB fading, changeable, 0130, 0135, 0138 (45433), 0158, October 23 UTC 2021 [Sat] 5950 kHz, siren, QRN other, 2330, 2343, 2357 (45343), (55334), 2359, October 23 UTC 2021 [Sat] 7730 kHz, 0032, 0043, 0059 (45433), 0059, October 24 UTC 2021 [Sun] 9955 kHz, S 7 signal rising too S 9 signal, 2232, 2239, 2256 (45433), 2256, October 24 UTC 2021 [Sun] QSB fading heard, 7730 kHz, 0030 (45433), also heard on 9395 kHz, 0059, 7730 kHz, October 25 UTC 2021 [Mon] 1030 UTC, 5850 kHz, 1036, 1043 (55434), October 27 UTC 2021 [Wed] (Lemke, Richard -AB)`` Confirmed Wed Oct 27 at 1055 the 1030 on WRMI 5850, VG direct. Confirmed Wed Oct 27 at 2100 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR. On WRMI there is often a brief blast of extraneous music between their ID and WOR, and this is one of them, misaligned automation. Also confirmed 21 seconds later Wed Oct 27 at 2100+ on WBCQ 7490-, S9+10/15 into same Maryland SDR showing -100 Hz = 7489.900.

At 1539 also no 15770 into UTwente or Maine SDRs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15770, Oct 22 at 1452, no signal from this WRMI, 24 hours after first noted absent, their only daytime signal into Europe. Scheduled XMTR #9, 44 degrees at 11-02 with: 11-12 variety, 12-13 TOMBS, 13-14 variety, 14-20 SMTV, 20-21 variety, 21-22 Prague, 23-02 TOMBS; switching among four different Systems. 15770, however, Oct 22 at 2025, is back on into Virginia SDR, but JBA carrier into UTwente. At 2156 direct it`s sufficient. BTW altho the title for WRMI A-21 schedules still says August 14, skeds themselves are newly headed October 18, so be alert for further changes; so far same entries for WOR until DST stop (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5950, Saturday at 2200 UT, WRMI starts a 4- or 5-hour string of worthwhile programming, certainly unlike weekdays, on System L, via transmitter 8, aimed almost north, 355 degrees: `Encore`, classical music, which is when I usually listen to it; 2300 `Wavescan` among innumerable repeats but this one is pre-Sunday nominal turnovers; 2330 WORLD OF RADIO; UT Sun 0000 `Texas Radio Shortwave` with two different hours each week including Europirate relays; 0200-0300 `Alt Universe Top 40` maybe too, I`ve not listened to but if you`re into that, see detailed setup on the Programming page. Since System L is displayed in ET, expect all the above times to shift one UT hour later from November 12-13; barring any further permanent changes. Unfortunately, heavy competition now such as: 00-01 `Theater Organ Under The Arch` on WTWW-2 5085, axually starting 5-10 minutes earlier; `The Mighty KBC` at 00-02 on 5960; `Encore` encore at 01-02 on other WRMIs, 5850 & 7780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (7489.9v), Oct 23 from 0000, WBCQ webcast with `AAAWWW`. Not as overmodulated as before but still too much. Immediately equates Democrats with communists, nazis and moonbats, another show railing against all that`s wrong with a non-Trump-controlled America. I don`t need this, so dip in only occasionally during the hour. Seems to start complaining about Superman turning gay. 0019 interrupted by call from Mr. Rabishu, who says he hasn`t listened to news since 2019, instead monitors hams: some in California about discouraging gas-powered tools such as chainsaws, setting off A&A on another rant. ``Build Back America Better`` is BS, per Allan. Servitude was accepted back then 200-300 years ago by good people - so give them a break? But we know now it was wrong. Last few minutes, skimming a few FRW items, prayer and off. John Carver`s version: Tonight's show started on time on 4790, 6160 and 7490 this evening with the best signal being 7490. Allan and Angela in the studio. Show starts immediately with a rant from Allan about the changes to the Superman slogan. He refused to say what it had been changed to but I'm guessing it no longer ends with Truth, Justice and the American way. Then he asks about "woke" movement is all about and also asks about Critical Race Theory. Then into the price of fuel, inflation and politics. Phone call at 0018 but I can't make out caller or the question as all three frequencies have gotten terribly noisy. Then into vaccine talk after the phone call. Another phone call at 0026 and then into talk about statues being removed or destroyed. Phone call at 0038 that Allan calls Pastor. At this time the best signal I can get out of the three frequencies is an S3. Then Allan plays some sort of audio from the Pastor that had just been on the phone. Maybe a sermon? Reading of emails at 0056 along with a very brief scan of the new Free Radio Weekly. Closing prayer at 0059 and off air at 0101. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 6160-, Oct 25 at 0621, WBCQ with rock music, presumably extension of Area 51 feed, rather than TOMBS. And 4790 is S9+10 with protracted dead air instead of TOMBS, vs CODAR swirshes. Simul on WRMIs, TOMBS with long pauses between outbursts at first seeming dead air, but apparently such on original recording (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. (5085), Sat Oct 23 at 2355, WTWW-2 webcast already into `TOUTA` for ~1 hour show, tribute to Bob Heil`s mentor and friend, George Wright, partly narrated by GW himself; 0049 UT Sun Oct 24 already wrapping up, plugging webcast available at ``WTWW.org`` --- NO, not unless they buy it from a squatter for $4988! It`s WTWW.us, strangely a seldom-used domain, why? Over at 0052, into hardsell Tedad (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5085, Oct 27 at 0606, WTWW-2 is S9+30 of dead air except for some hum (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, UT Mon Oct 25 at 0623, WWCR-3 with Old Time Radio comedy, sounded like some Jack Benny, and an Alice character, but 0629 closing as having been `Classic Radio Theatre` with Phil Harris & Alice Faye show of April 22, 1950, from network GCN, which otherwise flushes far-right crap. Own sked dated Oct 1 shows TOMBS is supposed to be on now. C.R.T. does not appear at *any* time on any of the four WWCR schedules. Something`s always wacky at WWCR. TOMBS is still running on 3215, WWCR-1, whew! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. RF 6, Oct 23 at 1512 UT, BAD DTV signal into STB, via my channel 7+ antenna pointed at OKC. Has to be KBSD-DT, 31 kW ERP at Ensign = Dodge City KS, the only full-power 6 anywhere around here, and correlates nicely with tropo maps showing a little blob around there to here. NO other BAD signals register on the open channels between 8 and 36. I do start my DTV bandscans at RF ch 6, but it`s a rare event when KBSD make a showing (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** UZBEKISTAN. 5829.90, Oct 26 at 1632, JBA signal into Kuwait SDR, checking out a yesterday report of something on ``5829``. Typical Tashkent off-frequency but just reported by Alan Holder: ``Confirmed October 26, 1600 UT. 5830 carrying the same audio as Iran International TV live streaming, although radio is about 2 seconds behind. Heard with excellent reception on the Kuwait KiwiSDR. Alan Holder, G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.`` We were checking out a previous report from Brasil at 0250 of something on ``5829``. After that I could only hear WTWW 5830. Wolfgang Bueschel also reported: ``UZBEKISTAN, 5829.938 kHz exact measured at 1700 UT, likely via transmitting stn of RRTM Telecom Tashkent Uzbekistan bcast center, Iran International TV news program in Persian, read by female presenter, S=9+5dB backlobe into southern Germany Perseus SDR unit`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 378 kHz, Oct 22 at 0620 UT, NDB bandscan finds intermittent dashes, dits and dahs. Sounds like an NDB but very out of order. If really on 378, dxinfocentre.com lists only four, in BC, OR, QC and NU, none very likely here. classaxe.com has only the three Canadians, with OR and several more marked out, and none of them, then or now noted with any problem like this. It`s still possible this was a local device previously unnoticed. Anyone else hearing thus? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED.
