** ANDORRA [non]. 6180, April 2 at 1832, VG S9+35/40 into UTwente, monthly R. Andorra Revival show via AUSTRIA, as previewed by that guy on WOR, and reminded now by Alan Roe. Classic jazz pieces and quite a bit of conversation in French only, even applause; 1835 jazz piano. 1858 sounds like a national anthem, Andorra`s? Besides this did the original station ever have any programming *about Andorra* itself? Never caught any ID until right at 1859 closing, in Spanish, not Catalan; and first four notes of AWR theme before chopped off air, oops. I see that next from Moosbrunn at 1900 is AWR Hausa on 11955. This reminds me to wonder, despite the huge SW language schedule of AWR, how many e.g. Hausa, presumably Islamic, they are converting to Infidels, this particular Christianish sect? Wikipedia says there are only 21.8 mega-Adventists in the entire world of which 21.4 are of the Seventh Day. They have a long way to go; e.g. there are 4X as many Methodists, but split into many more subilx (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, April 2 at 1445-1450, no trace of LRA36 this Saturday into four Brasil, one Uruguay SDRs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, April 6 at 1425, no signal this Wednesday from LRA36 into four Brazilian remotes checked. Some editors will throw this out as an insignificant non-log: I maintain its absences are at least as significant as its appearances, and should be documented; as with other irregulars (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ARMENIA. 1395, April 4 at 1809, no significant signal into Khimki, Russia remote; while 1386 with R. Svoboda via Lithuania is S9+15/20. Latest update from Shortwaves for Freedom says the 1395 relay of R. Svoboda has been retimed to 2100-2200 UT. They do not admit it`s via Armenia, nor 9370 at 1900-2000; but Ivo Ivanov asserts that the latter is too ``ERV`` = Yerevan, a.k.a. Gavar. 1395, April 4 at 1951 is making it to UTwente with Dead Brother Scare, presumably still 1900-2100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BOTSWANA. 15610.307, April 1 at 1436, way off-frequency unknown language but mentions Washington. VOA relay in `Kur` language scheduled this hour only on ``15610``. That would be Kinyarwanda/Kirundi. Last logged March 27 when it was not off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA [and non]. 15110, April 1 at 1441, S6/S7 algo talk with Doppler flutter: VOA Chinese via Tinang, Philippines, and/or CNR1 jammer; more Dfl here than on more transpolar 15030 India. K index at 1500 is 4 with storms and blackouts (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 14980, 13530, 13130, 13020, April 1 at 1449, JBA carriers on traditional ChiCom jammers of Sound of Hope; none in the 11 MHz area (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA. 13805, April 3 at 1458, tonal talk at S9/+10 with flutter. Not sure if Chinese but must have been as until 1500 is CNR1 jamming and SOH per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CHINA [and non]. 11675, April 4 at 1511, Chinese with fast SAH, presumably CNR1 jammer atop rather than RFA Chinese via SAIPAN during this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5040, March 31 at 0608, RHC in English, but chopped off air at 0609*! Maybe one full hour from 0500 ran over. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, March 31 at 0611, RHC English S9+10 with humbuzz; 6100 S9+30/40 with less hum. No others still on air. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6125, March 31 at 0613, pulse jamming against nothing. R Martí was on here a few seasons ago earlier in evening, but not now. 7355, 7375, 7405, 7435, March 31 at 0617, pulse jammings against nothings, but each with a slightly different sound and strength, All are present or former Martí frequencies, but not at this hour. Something`s always incompetent, and with collateral damage from the DentroCuban Jamming Command (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, 6060, 6100, 6165, April 1 at 0617, RHC English on 4 channels at once, unusual: 6000 S9+10/20; 6060 S9+10 with hum; 6100 S9+10; 6165 S9+20/30 but less modulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, April 2 at 0216, RHC English is S9/+10 but suptorted, 0300 a little better but unlistenable. See also TURKEY [and non]. By 0557 direct I detect: 6000, S9+10/20 of dead air in English; 6060, S9+10/20 with OK mod; 6100, S9+20/30; 6165 OFF. 6140 is S4/S5 with no modulation audible, but probably a leapfrog of 6060 over 6100 another 40 kHz beyond. 5040 is still on but in Spanish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, April 3 at 0615, RHC S9+10/20 but in wrong language, speech in Spanish. 6060 is S9/+10 of dead air in English; 6165 is S9+20 but just barely modulated; and 5040 is off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13700, April 4 at 1503, RHC is S9/+10 but just barely modulated. 11760, April 4 at 1507, RHC is S9/+10 here of dead air except for some hum. Somethings always wrongs at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, April 5 at 0623, only RHC frequency still on, English undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 9805, April 6 at 0621, wall-of-noise jamming against nothing in response to R. Martí reactivated here for A-22 but only at 10-13! Now also various jam levels against nothings on 7435, 7375, 7355, 7335, 6030 WON; 5980 vs the WWCR leapfrog mixing product of WWCRs 5890 TOMBS over 5935 DGS/PMS another 45 kHz beyond, fundamentals so strong that the ghostly voice of BS can be heard on 5980 mixed with jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6165, April 6 at 0635, the only RHC frequency left, S9+10/20 of undermodulated English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EAST TURKISTAN [non]. see GREECE [and non]. 9420 ** EGYPT [and non]. 9899.8, April 3 at 2209 direct, very weak carrier with het from another 9900.0, presumed Cairo and China? Nothing around 9440, supposed English frequency at 2115-2245. Not checked at UTwente this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995+, April 4 at 2133, typical R. Cairo, S9+35/40 into UTwente of extremely distorted and suppressed modulation of music and talk resembling English. 2158, also with humwhine. Something`s always egregious in Egypt. But at least Qahiran frequency accuracy has improved. 9899.99, April 4 at 2131 just before above log, tuned in here to an open carrier, no mod and shortly off. Then checked 9909.99 and found an S9 carrier with no mod. Somethings else? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9440, April 5 at 2159.5 early timesignal, R. Cairo news theme and English recognizable altho unreadable with usual extreme distortion, S7-S9 into Maryland SDR. No signals like this in the 9890-9900-9910 area. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT [and non]. 9439.995, April 6 at 2204, R. Cairo, S9+25/30 into UTwente, English news mostly readable if you concentrate against the distortion and humwhine. Yet I decline. Ex-9900 is occupied by CNR1 echo jamming against another Chinese signal, i.e. RTI, April 6 at 2205, S9+30 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FINLAND. Scandinavian Weekend Radio is scheduled on almost-monthly first-Saturday 24-hour broadcast until 2100 April 2. So I look for it at 1940 via UTwente: Nothing audible on 5980 or 11690; 6170 has strong VOA Kurdish via Biblis this hour; 11720 has a weak signal maybe this when nothing else is scheduled per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE. 9420, March 31 at 0315, ERT with great music, continuous except for IS & ID on hour and half-hour, past 0500. Last day on air forever?? Still at 1905 via UTwente, VG S9+30/35 in Greek talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2132) And still music at 0105 April 1!! ** GREECE. Christos Rigas near Chicago forwards news that ERT got a two-month reprieve for shortwave until end of May. They may not have got word at Avlis site, as no signal on 9420 into UTwente April 1 at 1809. Hope they didn`t hasten to blow the thing up. By 2318, some Greekish music is JBA, maybe degraded propagation; but nothing at all to Maryland. Or could really be Beijing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE. 9420: Numerous monitors have been trying to hear VOG since ``reprieve`` until May 31 instead of closing as of March 31, but without success. At 2210 April 2, UTwente is barely locking onto a weak 9420 signal, probably CNR6 Amoy service; with huge splash from tinkling HF Chinese music on 9410, i.e. the CRI ``Portuguese`` hour via East Turkistan. No sign of Greece. As I said before, word may be slow getting to Avlis site about the reprieve, so let`s hope they haven`t destroyed anything yet. Not now on 9935 either and I find hard to believe some blog about that, 1655 also an odd time of day for a mass broadcast. Keep checking 9420: it used to be on early UT Sundays for Orthodox mass, lovely music, around 0600/0700 then off for the rest of Sunday until Monday evening (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE [non]. 9420, Dave Kenny, BDXC-UK was surprised to hear ERT back on air April 4 at 1500. This should not have been a surprise as reprieve info indicated it would be M-F only. Some others also reported it before 1700. But at 1710 into UTwente, the one station on 9420 is NOT in Greek, nor musical, continuous talk in unknown language. Maybe Uyghur as CNR13 is scheduled from Lingshi until 1805, and ERT off again? 1727 a bit of theme music, back to talk past 1730+. Heavy ACI from 9425 VOK in Russian. EiBi is up and 90% complete for A22; time version shows the Lingshi // to 9420 is 9890; checked at 1741, it seems // but heavy music CCI on 9890, which per Aoki would be V of Korear in Ararbic. I did not get back to 9420 until 1806, when nothing was left, but Richard Langley heard via UTwente 9420 CNR13 going off about 1805. Christos Rigas, Wood Dale, Illinois, says, ``I was hearing VO Greece today via UTwente between 1445-1700 UT with quite a good signal. I stopped listening at 1700. When I tuned in again at 1812, there was no signal of any kind on 9420 kHz``. He speaks Greek fluently and is sure it was VOG earlier. 9420.003, one more check at 2340 April 4, UTwente lox onto a very weak carrier, obviously not Greece, maybe China. It seems that under the reprieve, only two staff are paid for at Avlis, so operational hours have to be much less than before (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE [and non]. 9420.002, April 5 at 1514, no doubt that VOG is on today, S9+20/30 into UTwente, Greek music and talk, mentions Franz Kafka; but CCCCCCI audible under. Scheduled now per Aoki are both CNR6 via Beijing site, and CNR13 Lingshi site and both in Chinese. 1559 VOG IS & ID, more of same next hour until abruptly cut off at 1700 before any IS & ID, so the day shift is over, and may not return for evening nor especially overnight = prime time in North America. And thus audiblizing: 9420, April 5 at 1700, ERT off uncovering what sounds like an NA and non-Greek talk, in a Turkic language. Again fitting like heard yesterday as CNR13 in Uighur via Lingshi 725 site, which is between Beijing and Xian, far from target East Turkistan, land of imperialist Chicom genocide against Uyghurs. Continues indoctrination talk with brief music breaks past 1725; and heavy splash from musix on 9410 & 9425. 1727, 9420 itself plays part of one of the ChiCom martial anthems, and more talk. 1800 recheck now music only until 1805* as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GREECE [non]. 9420, April 6 at 1656, I tune for VOG to catch it going off at 1700 like yesterday? Good signal into UTwente, S9+15, but music at 1658 and announcement are *not* Greek. EPT is already off uncovering CNR13. No timesignal but mentions ``Radiostantsiyom`` so Russian-influenced, like Kazakh as some have guessed? 1702 ``Burasi`` as in a Turkic language, ``this is``, like Uyghur as listed. 1703 onward lots of talk. Alan Roe, Teddington, UK, reports to the WOR iog: ``A later start today (6 April) for V of Greece - observed crashing-on at 1417 UT (9420 kHz).`` Christos Rigas, Wood Dale IL, replies: ``Late start was most likely due to general strike in Greece today. Broadcast employees were on strike which ended at 1300 UT today. And abruptly off at 1647. Short shift for the two ERT employees at Avlida today`` Background via Kim Elliott: ```[WOR] Greek City Times on the Voice of Greece Reprieve Given recent restrictions and interruptions to the internet, the Greek Defense Ministry thinks the imminent demise of shortwave is a non-starter ... https://greekcitytimes.com/2022/04/02/voice-of-greece-granted-a-reprieve-still-broadcasting-for-2-more-months/ or https://twitter.com/kaedotcom/status/1511702524318957574 ``The closure of the analog broadcast of the Voice of Greece has been delayed, even temporarily.

In an earlier decision, ERT had stated that its broadcast on shortwave would end yesterday, March 31, and had addressed the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Defense “to decide whether they want the continuation of the shortwave broadcasts, as well as the acquisition of ownership and the operation of the shortwave operation at their own risk“.

It`s KTWR in Kazakh daily, 250 kW and 305 degrees, way offbeam thisaway. I wonder how many Kazax they have converted to Protestants? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [non]. 14580, Sat April 2 at 1821, checking IRRS, 24 hours after WOR aired on Friday. Music on second harmonic from Kostinbrod, Bulgaria at S5 with RTTY QRM on USB side only, soon // much stronger 7290, S9+10 with `The Country Jamboree`. Same JBA on MW 1323 under German from Romania; all via UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, April 4 at 1510, Kurdish? talk, presumed Dengê Welat, and maybe a second signal under, Turkish jammer? Lately they have both been here instead of 11540. As of April 4, Ivo Ivanov, Observer Bulgaria, has this sked showing additional SCB = Bulgaria relays, but nothing about the Turkish jamming; will that attack two frequencies at once? BRB Denge Welat 0230-0530 on 9525 ISS 250 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish 0400-0700 on 7285 SCB 050 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish 0530-1600 on 11530 KCH 300 kW / 130 deg to WeAs Kurdish 0700-1700 on 11775 SCB 050 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish 1600-1800 on 11530 ISS 250 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish 1700-2100 on 5935 SCB 050 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish 1800-2100 on 9525 ISS 250 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Kurdish So before 1600 when I logged, site would have been PRIDNESTROVYE. With Putin`s war raging nearby, have there been any disruptions to Russia`s KCH relays of many foreign services? Any payments going there are in effect supporting genocide, even if they could agree on what currency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 6185, March 31 at 0614, unusual deadair instead of eclectic music from XEPPM, S9+10/20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MONGOLIA. 12014.878, April 1 at 1447 algo talk at S5/S7, presumably VOM`s offfrequency signature altho VOK in Russian is also sked on 12015. Aoki shows English at 1430-1500, really? Has been 1530-1600 as in WRTH with Chinese at 1430-1500. BTW there is a very rare typo in the page 486 heading, MOGOLIA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 341 MCW kHz, March 31 at 0626 UT, EI, 25? watt ND beacon from Enid is still on, so maybe not a panflash since yesterday. May not keep reporting until it`s gone again (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WORLD OF RADIO 2132) ** PHILIPPINES. 9410, April 1 at 1500, VOA `YDD` S9/+10 closing and 1501*. Was an hour in Korean from Tinang, 21 degrees so aimed onwards right at us. 9410 mainly a BBC frequency, taking a one-hour break at 1400, but not heard resuming from Oman at 1500 in English, nor scheduled Cairo in Albanian (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAO TOME. 7265, March 31 at 0615 `Le Monde Aujourd`hui`, about Sénégal, S9+10/20. It`s VOA relay in French as now scheduled 0530-0630; and the only broadcast station heard now on band. (Nigeria has been absent a lot from 7255- lately.) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 9675.009, April 5 at 2009, ``Inilah ... Radio Sa`udi International`, good modulation and signal into UTwente, in Indonesian when Turkish has been scheduled 1800-2100, and before sunrise in Indonesia! I suspect it`s a temporary Ramadan service for early-rising breakfasters. 2050 haunting music with echoing, seemingly secular but with Qur`anic elements; 2056 ``Ramadan Karimi`` [?], more music until cut off at 2058* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) However, this has been going on since at least March 20, well before Ramazan ** SPAIN. 11940, Friday April 1 at 2225, token English from REE concluding part 1 of an Amy interview about tromp-l`oeil art in America; best to Maryland SDR on this S American beam! As 17855 for NAm is weaker and fadier, with 15520 backwards to ME even worse. BTW, has anyone heard Justin Coe with an REE mailbag, or ``DX program`` this year? Late last year we thought they were showing up maybe alternate weeks on Monday and/or Wednesday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, April 4 at 2200, REE token English on Monday, S7/S9+5 into Maryland SDR, the only station daring to 16-meter itself to us, is on average holding up rather well this spring, at least until 2230, I think better than last year now that sunspots and solar flux are rising. First news item: about Spain increasing spending on microchips due to shortages; Amy Egan`s feature after 2209 song, part 2 of interview with director of Thyssen Museum [not Titian], but it`s hard to get into a verbal discussion of a supremely visual medium. Sort of like talking about music rather than playing it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Wed April 6 at 2208, REE token English is VG into Maryland SDR; misc. cultural/arts news by Amy; 2217 Justin introduces 9-minute acceptance speech of new director-general-elect of the ILO, who is from Togo, the first African. Justin never spelt his name --- this is not TV! --- so I had to search for it: Gilbert Houngbo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SRI LANKA. 15709.876, April 5 at 1449, JBA carrier way off-frequency; AWR Chinese scheduled ``15710`` this hour daily via Trincomalee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWAZILAND. 9585, April 1 at 1456 good signal S9/+10 in unknown language. Aoki shows TWR starts at 1455 M-F in Mal, i.e. Malagasy, or French on weekends. Azimuth is 64 degrees and could be long-path. I`m dragging my feet on recognizing namechange to Eswatini. That`s fine in Siswati, but this is English. BTW, starting at 1458 is CRI in Japanese on 9585. Would they really collide? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.021, April 1 at 2216, VOT VG today, S9+40 to UTwente with the COVID PSA. BTW, I just got my Moderna booster #2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 6165, April 2 at 0335, VOT English is just barely detectable under RHC. Someone concerned about this urged me to notify RHC. Well, that`s not my job, but I point out that VOT 6165 is not aimed at us but the ME or S Asia. 7270, despite being an INTRUDER into the exclusive NAm hamband is in fact for us, and even unto Bonaire is VG S9+10, with `Feeling Supreme` theme at 0335 April 2. Hams avoid it. During the 03-04 Turkey hour, RHC listeners have alternative of 6000, should it happen to be decently modulated.

Weak RTTY could be heard only after it closed circa 2255 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 17770, April 3 at 1447, music at S9 with fast fading as if SAH from another carrier; but only VOT is scheduled this hour, in Arabic. Second only to slightly stronger 17855 Spain and nothing else on 16 m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 3 at 2210, JBA carrier direct but no RTTY, presumed VOT not making it due to propagation disturbance (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.021, April 4 at 2200, VOT is S9+50 into UTwente, allowing expansion to max bandwidth of 13.53 kHz --- but input audio is lo-fi ``telco quality``! Worse than usual. Overmodulated and distorted. 2213 `Feeling Supreme` sub-titled`Health Life` [sic?], about natural cures for kidney stones --- long lists of foods and beverages which are OK and those which may cause them --- now, which was which? 2218.5 F.S. outro theme and on to another song. Off before 2300, no bonus German today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, April 5 at 2201, VOT English S9+10/25 into Maryland SDR and also UTwente, but with horrible continuous squealing. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.002, April 6 at 2207, VOT news in English is VG into UTwente, except for lite whine: that`s better than the squeal.

The opening from 0500 included a timecheck including ``дватсет час`` = 20 hours, as if that were the original airtime recorded = 17 UT rather than 00 UT, maybe a repeat already. Anyhow, U:SI is a very well-done summary of the day`s events, with dramatic stingers, YL announcer and easy to understand (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, April 3 at 0501-0505, UR1 via WRMI with English segment only 4 minutes and back to the OM announcer, `Ukraine: Security Issues`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, April 4 at 0501-0506, UR1 via WRMI again with brief English segment, `Ukraine: Security Issues`, YL announcer.

About the next scheduled airing 0330 Friday on WRMI 5985, I wrote to Jeff White at 0411: ``Jeff, With NHK gone I was wondering if it would be worth it to keep 5985 on the air at all? I see it is still on your schedule. As usual trying to confirm WOR at 0330 UT Friday, I could not hear anything at several remotes in several direxions; but then [at 0341] I could *barely* detect what sounded like my voice at the Bonaire remote -- as if on air but very reduced power? Propagation may be disturbed, but surely not that much. 5970 WEWN is still well audible everywhere; as is your 5950 for example. I have also noticed 4980 missing last night and again tonight. Hope you are not having further transmitter or antenna problems. So appreciate it if you can fill us in on what`s happening with these. Glenn`` I would not be surprised if 5985 were running the exciter only. There has been no reply; nor anything about these on disgraced FB. Another check of 5985 direct at 0354 got a JBA carrier only; and 4980 off. WOR 2132 also confirmed Friday April 1 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S8/S5 and seems somewhat undermodulated. Also confirmed Friday April 1 at 1815 on IRRS SW, 7290 via Bulgaria, only S8/S9+5 into UTwente and no trace of 14580 second harmonic. Also on AM Italia, 1323 kHz, S9/+10 into nearby Noale SDR, but considerable CCI in German from Romania`s minority service, as this has also moved one UT hour earlier than in winter. We are usually atop and maybe will improve as sunset latens. Also confirmed Friday April 1 at 2030 on AM Italia, 1323, good S9+5 and no QRM by now but some occasional storm crashes into Noale SDR. Previous unID program discussing how far-right is not always inversely proportional to environmentalism; as usual chopped off incomplete at 2030 for ID, then WOR. The canned IDs continue to invite postal mail to the Box in Milano, while publicity from Ron Norton specifies that is no longer acceptable!

WORLD OF RADIO 2132 monitoring: confirmed UT Saturday April 2 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/15 into Maryland SDR. Also confirmed UT Saturday April 2 from *0412 on WBCQ 4789.979, joined in progress after having been off the air for 22 minutes from 0350* during FTIOM. Must have started playback on time at 0400, over at 0429 and sign-off 0430*. They might have waited until transmitter restored as nothing would follow at 0430 anyway. I bet no one else kept listening to noise on 4790 pending resumption of WOR. Meanwhile I was timing the about 2-second-long uteblaaaps, sounding every 4:00 minutes exactly, such as about 5 seconds past these minutes logged whether WBCQ was on or not: 0415, 0443, 0447, etc. What and why??

Also confirmed UT Sunday April 3 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, now aimed SW, but only S7/S9, noisy and not solid into Brownsville SDR. Also confirmed UT Sunday April 3 at 0130 on North American webcast of WRN.

WTWW is authorized 24h on 9940, but per HFCC there will be a number of collisions on such a greatly expanded schedule: 9940 0000 2400 4,9,18 TWW 100 40 0 902 1234567 270322 291022 D Eng {sic} USA TWW FCC 748 9940 0300 0400 48 KCH 300 155 0 156 1234567 270322 301022 D Mul MDA NEW RAM 420 9940 1300 1330 44NE TAI 300 2 0 145 1234567 270322 301022 D 13650 Kor CHN ENC ENC 1100 9940 1430 1500 30,42 BOC 100 323 30 216 1234567 270322 301022 D 11500 Uig PHL FEC FEC 1976 B0007H 9940 1500 1600 42-44 KWT 250 70 0 216 1234567 270322 291022 D 8750 Cmn KWT AGM AGM 1492 9940 1600 1700 41 KCH 300 116 0 218 1234567 270322 301022 D Mul MDA NEW RAM 421 9940 1800 1900 39,47E,48,53 KCH 300 158 0 156 1234567 270322 301022 D Mul MDA NEW RAM 422 9940 1905 1950 47S,52 MAN 100 343 -30 218 17 270322 291022 D 13700 LinFra SWZ TWR TWR 2088 9940 1905 2005 47S,52 MAN 100 343 -30 218 23456 270322 291022 D 13700 LinFra SWZ TWR TWR 2087 And Aoki has all this more explicitly on 9940: 9940 0000-1400 USA WTWW Eng Lebanon TN 1-7 9940 1800-1830 MDA TWR Africa Kun Kishinev-Gr 1 9940 1800-1830 MDA TWR Africa Tig Kishinev-Gr 7 9940 1800-1845 MDA TWR Africa Tig Kishinev-Gr 2345 9940 1815-1845 MDA TWR Africa Tig Kishinev-Gr 6 9940 1830-1845 MDA TWR Africa Tig Kishinev-Gr 7 9940 1300-1328 TWN Nippon no Kaze"il bon ue Kor Paochung 1-7 9940 1430-1500 PHL FEBC Radio Liangyou Uig Bocaue 1-7 9940 1500-1600 KWT * R.FREE ASIA Chi Kuwait 1-7 9940 1905-1935 SWZ TWR Africa Lin Manzini 1-7 9940 1935-1950 SWZ TWR Africa Fre Manzini 17 9940 1935-2005 SWZ TWR Africa Lin Manzini 23456 Originally after 1500 no other WTWWs were on: 9475, 5830, 5085. At 1523 I checked one of the HMB remotes on California coast, and 9940 was dominated by Chinese - presumably jammer against USAGM Kuwait that hour. The imaginary ``15810`` sked shows Russian at 13-14 only, no Ukrainian but at 15-16 Greek. Before any ID, tried to run TDOA at 1534, which made a wild guess somewhere in the mid-Atlantic ocean. It was only S6/S7 into Maine remote, but at 1606, S9/+12 into Maryland. Not rechecked until 1835 by when it`s back to rock music on 9940 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9940, April 4 at 1504, S9/+10 of rock music from WTWW, just what they are pining for in Ukraine per Ted`s imagination. Also a SAH, as during this hour RFA in Chinese is also scheduled via Kuwait: I doubt USAGM would appreciate the additional QRM to CNR1 jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9940, April 5 at 1445, WTWW with gospel-huxtering in English, not Ukrainian or rock music today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, April 4 at 0615, S6/S8 of talk and music. R Vanuatu has extended this frequency instead of QSY to 5040 at 0600, so now I`m hearing more than a JBA carrier and in the clear, no worries about QubaRM. And Nigeria has courteously de-adjacented itself from 7255, but some QRhaM encourages LSB tuning. Ron Howard says there were Tropical Low weather advisories, heard until modulation cut but still carrier at 1101. Will RV stay on 7260? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-oceanic JBA MW carrier search, March 31 at 0622: 846, 1107, 774, 711, likely resp.: Kiritimati, Spain, Spain, Morocco (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Transoceanic JBA MW carrier search, April 6 at 0642: 711, 846, 882, 1107; likely resp.: Morocco, Kiritimati, Canary Islands, Spain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 2097.3 CW, April 2 at 0600, single-letter beacon A every 10 seconds, quite audible despite storm and line noise. For the record still active, and also several times recently I did not bother to log. From anywhere but Quartzsite, Arizona (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6174.030, April 1 at 0611, JBA carrier, instantly reminding me of R. Tawantinsuyo, Cuzco, Perú which has been inactive for a long time, and was always offset about 6173.9. It`s still in Aoki, of course, on 6174. And still in WRTH 2022 as OAX7C, 1 kW on 6173, and not daggered as inactive or irregular. It was last reported by LOB in Brasil June 22, and by me remotedly by June 26, 2021. Nothing found since (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11620, April 4 at 1509, S9/+20 in English evidently for kids about drawing images of God? Vatican Radio not scheduled here until *1530, and no English until 1615. Nothing in Aoki at this hour, nor A-22 EiBi which is now up and 90% complete as of April 4. Nor in HFCC which as of 1625 April 4 was last updated April 1! What is this?? So much for assuming one can look it up later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11620, meant to get here before 1500 April 5 to check out mystery gospel-huxtering in English, but not until 1525, when it`s only S9 into UTwente with big splash from 11610 CRI East Turkistan. 1528 hymn and 1529* off. But just before 1530 it`s back on or something is giving e-mail @VOMKorea.com. That`s a big clue. Huge VATICAN in Arabic does not crash-start 11619.995+ until *1530. VOM Korea is Voice of Martyrs. Cannot find anything on their website about SW broadcasts! Hit EN icon and it stays in Korean! Altho primarily for Korea, HQ in the South, this ministry also goes elsewhere including India and Africa where English might be useful. WRTH 2022 shows no such broadcasts on page 518, just three Koreans via Tashkent, including 1530-1600 daily on 7530 in B-21. Perhaps 11610 now replace that? But no good with Vatican on it. Unless before 1530 I had a totally different station. Still no listings in latest HFCC dated April 5, nor Aoki, nor EiBi, nor in Feb WRTH B21 Updater. When I recheck 11620 at 1635, Vatican is finished, and nothing else. Coincidentally just in from Ivo Ivanov, April 5: ``UZBEKISTAN Frequency changes of Voice of Martyrs via RRTM Tashkent 1530-1600 NF 7530 TAC 100 kW / 076 deg to NEAs Korean Daily ex 7525`` but nothing about 11620. And also: ``AUSTRALIA Reach Beyond Australia relay Voice of Martyrs in Korean on 9580 kHz via Kununurra, March 31: 0930-1000 on 9580 KNX 100 kW / 335 deg to NEAs Korean Daily. Very good via SDR Half Moon Bay, CA in USA`` https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2022/04/reach-beyond-australia-relay-voice-of.html On RBA website, called True Voice of the Martyrs --- nothing about 11620 or at this time on RBA sked, but shows the VOM program could be relayed elsewhere, and yesterday`s signal on 11620 was good enough to be RBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11620, April 6 at *1500, mystery Protestant broadcast in English on air abruptly and I do not catch any ID. It`s S7/S8 into Missouri SDR; program theme at O&C is hymn ``Blessed Assurance``. Gospel huxter starts mentioning wildfires at Colorado Springs as if current or recent. There may be lots of them, but quick search implies the last major event was December 22, 2021. Goes on to discuss and instruct on how to pray and how much -- plenty. From visual references, this is soundtrack of some TV program. At UTwente it`s S8/9+10 on 11620.001. At Bandung SDR it`s S8/S9. 1510 I attempt some TDOAs: Brisbane/Perth/Bandung lead to -35.80, +118.20, which is in the Indian Ocean just off the SW tip of Australia near Albany WA: no, but I am still suspecting RBA Kununurra in NW WA. At least I find the signal widely audible: S9+10 into Half Moon Bay, CA; S9/+10 into Kuwait. At 1525, S Korea/Kuwait/Perth lead to somewhere deeper into the Indian Ocean. At 1527 the Blessed Assurance theme again, a couple bits of other tunes, closing with contact info or ID as VOMKorea, off at 1529.7* in time for Vatican crash start Arabic at *1530. Mauno Ritola was also listening: ``I can't catch the beginning of the email address, either. Attached. 73, Mauno`` I reply: ``On your recording the word before @ sounds like Maldives as unlikely as that seem, or maybe Mouthpiece?`` Meanwhile I have inquired of their generic address on website, info@vomkorea.com -- ``Dear Voice of Martyrs, For the past three days I have been hearing your shortwave broadcast in English at 1500-1530 UTC on 11620 kHz. Could you tell me where this is being transmitted from? Thanks, Glenn Hauser, Oklahoma`` No reply yet as of 2342 UT April 6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 17620, April 1 at 1434, JBA carrier is also the OSOB - only signal on band --- and guess what, nonesuch in Aoki or HFCC; EiBi A22 not yet available (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
