** ALASKA. 18130 USB, July 30 at 2310, K7K on Kiska Island in the Aleutians, calling CQ, then making a bunch of contacts. This is a special event I had been seeking day and night on publicized phone frequencies, nominally: 3790, 7090/7240, 14260, 18130, 21260, 24955, 28485 kHz. No luck until now directedly or remotedly; on the KFS Half Moon Bay CA remote with omni antenna. QRX at 2320, heard again at 2330 with W3LAS; UT July 31 at 0000 another contact says he is going to 18116, unchecked. July 31 is the final day for this expedition, so hurry up. Tnx to Chuck Gessner for tip on the WOR iogroup. Lots more interesting info, maps, wildlife at their website. https://www.qrz.com/db/K7K Chuck reported: ``A group of radio amateurs is currently operating, using the amateur radio callsign K7K, from the Aleutian Islands, specifically Kiska Island, Alaska from July 25th to the 31st. It is a special event operation to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the WW2 Battle Of The Aleutians. They are operating on amateur radio frequencies in the 3.5, 7, 10, 14, 17, 21, 24, 28, and 50 MHz bands. See their website for specific frequencies. Kiska Island is part of the Aleutian Islands WWII National Monument and the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge They are using CW, SSB, and digital FT8 modes. They will also be using the amateur radio call sign KL7RRC during the Islands On The Air contest this weekend`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ALBANIA [non]. 7730, August 1 at 0627, R. Tirana via WRMI, opening German service! as if on ``3985``; with strange accent, I guess Albanian. 0629 cut to Everglades ID, and 0630 to Brother Scare. Richard Langley has also been noting this on UT Mondays: the timing of automated recording of RT`s previous English broadcast is misaligned, and after a bit of BS will be turned off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Saturday July 30 started monitoring Buenos Aires area SDR circa 1445, but no LRA36 until abrupt cut-on at *1507 during song; 1509 sign-on, multilingual including English, with three different versions of name: Radio San Gabriel; Radio Arcángel San Gabriel, and finally, Radio Nacional Arcángel San Gabriel; staff list, ``Nacional, La Radio Pública``; 1511 Antártida themesong, maybe should be called Base Esperanza song, also mentions Marambio. Wish we could get the complete and correct lyrix/letra, let alone title. 1514 historical items concerning something in 1905; first Catholic mass on the continent in 1946y. 1518 a song; 1523 live greetings by the YLs [live, that is on original Wednesday airing], as 13th program in the 2022 series of ``Esperanza Audaz, bajo el cielo más austral``; ``muy buenos días`` altho at 15Z it`s noon local time. In the second week of vacations, apparently referring to local school #38. Any of the 4-YL crew brought own kids if XYLs? Winds have hit 141 km/h. 1530 phone numbers and other contact info but chopped off air abruptly at 1531:20*, never to return. Thruout there has been lite QRM from series of rapid clix, now in the clear, two different pitches alternating, as if talking to each other. Gary Pence, Dallas, was listening via same remote and could also detect RNASG into Half Moon Bay CA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, August 3 at 1448-1548, LRA36 NO SHOW, monitored this Wednesday for a full hour via Buenos Aires area remote. Wonder if will make up Friday circa 1800 as happened recently? Otherwise try Sat circa 1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** AUSTRALIA [non]. Jen`s UT Sunday shows in the 18-22 UT slot are inconveniently timed for me when I have other favorite listening; but on July 31 I had the Shoutcast stream running, http://uk4-vn.mixstream.net:8104/ and found it can be paused, so from 2007 it accumulated 2+ hours which I then played back later in segments her World Beat Special. She announces as on Unique Radio 5035, 3210 USB, but current sked and Tim Gaynor confirm she`s on webcast only. Just in from Jen: ``Next Sunday a Real Deal of a Special, anyone for a Rebellion (Fest) of Real Deal R & R music? More to follow towards the end of the week.

Checked here for only other ZY on 31m overnight while RVM missing from 9665v (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CANADA. 284 MCW kHz, July 31 at 0635 UT, dash and QD, 500-watt ND beacon at The Pas, Manitoba, is JBA vs storm and line noise levels. Pleased to hear it but nothing else from Canada, nor any USA beyond OK. 1956 km = 1215 statute miles (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, July 28 at 0610, RHC English S9 but undermodulated also vs high storm noise level; 6165 is S9+20 but just barely modulated; but 6100 is well-modulated S9+20/30. 5040 is off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, July 28 at 1509, RHC Spanish, S9/+10, just barely modulated but what I can hear is also distorted. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 11670, July 31 at 0621, RHC English S7/S9 but very suptorted, barely recognizable // big 6165, only other English still on air, while 5040 remains but in Spanish. 11670 is supposed to be in Spanish only and much earlier in evening. From time to time it shows like this in English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13700, Sunday July 31 at 1501, RHC is still on as weekly Esperanto opens, but cut off by 1503 as meanwhile I have retuned to 11760 where sign-on continues to allege this frequency only, ignorant of weaker // 15140, and even weaker carrier still on 15230 by 1505. Also stuck on winter timings as if at 1600 UT instead of 1500, as well as 0800 on 6100 instead of 0700 when it`s usually missing anyway; and 2330 or was it 2230 on 15730. Io ĉiam misas ĉe RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. 13628 & 13772 approx., July 31 at 1430, RHC spurblobs out of 13700 AM transmitter. F# tone JBA but no readable program modulation. Lower one louder than upper one. By 1457 have shifted slightly to peak circa 13629 & 13771. 13629 has het from 13630 broadcaster, listed as from 1500, CRI English via Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of imperialist ChiCom re-education, slave labor, even genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6060, August 2 at 0630, this RHC English is loud & clear for a change, S9+20/30 with VG modulation, so it can be done! Talking about COVID; better than // 6100, only S9+10/20 with sufficient modulation. Something`s not wrong at RHC, unless it be absence of 6165 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, August 2 at 1505, RHC is S9+10 in suptorted Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6165, Aug 3 at 0636, this RHC English is on tonight, unlike last night this late, and better than 6060, while 6100 and 6000 are off; 5040 still on in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9440, August 1 at 2205, no signal from R. Cairo direct, so I cannot comment on how horrible the modulation would be. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, August 2 at 2211, R. Cairo nothing but big humwhine in English, S7/9+10 into Maryland SDR. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, August 3 at 2126, S9+35/50 of humwhine with traces of English? modulation spikes into UTwente. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EUROPE. 6184.991, via UTwente, July 31 at 1901, ``Radio Classic Sunday`` several IDs in English, rock, Dutch announcements. This is why FRSH said it would not be on 6185 this week, but last and next week. Messy situation as presumed FRSH is on 7700.089 at S8/S9, 1907 giving address in Netherlands; should be // 5800 but unseems, and then 1908 two signals are equally colliding; so someone will have to shift off like last Sunday. No, 1923 recheck, still head-to-head. Manuel Méndez says FRSH is on 5790.3, so must be *two others* on 5800. At 1946, UTWente lox onto music on 5790.215. Anyhow, it`s all rock music, and I would rather listen to `With Heart & Voice` in $tereo on WYSU HD2 stream as usual this hour on Sundays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [non]. IRRS/NEXUS/IBA/IPAR on 7125?? As announced: see USA [and non] WORLD OF RADIO monitoring. No, August 1 at 1801 still on 7290 with gospel huxtress and USB warble via UTwente, not on 7125 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ITALY [non]. ROBERTO SCAGLIONE: very sad news from Andrea Lawendel that Roberto died suddenly of a heart attack on August 1. Proprietor of the BCLNEWS.IT group and website, and a cooperator with WOR: ``According to messages circulating this morning on SWL related Italian social networks feeds and confirmed by an obituary just published by Palermo online news site https://palermolive.it/morto-roberto-scaglione-teleone/ Roberto Scaglione has passed away yesterday in his hometown, due to a sudden heart event. Originally from the Southern Sicilian port of Sciacca, close to Agrigento, for many years Roberto has been founder and editor of the Italian DX news organisation "Bclnews" and host to the Italian DX programme "Obiettivo DX", on Sunday from AWR Europe's SW frequencies. 73 Andy Lawendel Radiopassioni.it`` No further info at the Palermo site but it does have a portrait. Roberto also produced a `Studio DX` program in Italian on WRMI: ``Studio DX è l'unica trasmissione in lingua italiana dedicata al mondo dei BCL, SWL, radioamatori e mondo delle comunicazioni in genere diffusa in onde corte, onde medie, satellite, internet e attraverso una rete di emittenti in modulazione di frequenza.

USB, July 29 at 2357, music in high storm noise level such that I can`t even be sure of the frequency, but there seems to be a vestigial carrier as above. Music sounds no better or worse tuned to 6923 USB. Maybe same as these on `6920`: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,100060.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 515 MCW kHz, July 31 at 1428 UT, PN, 25-watt ND beacon at PoNca City, is off. Had been reliably on for weeks and audible day and night as strongest beacon, even moreso than 341 EI EnId, 350 RG OKC which are reconfirmed on now; also Kansans 332 IC wIChita, 395 CA 25 watts at Newton/Harvs are JBA; and 255 SW StillWater OK is still off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, August 3 at 0710 UT, PN, 25 watt ND beacon at PoNca City is back on air; had been missing since July 31 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.4 AM, July 29 at 2344, local Enid CB relay of broadcast station, but unsounds like country 103.1 KOFM as heard for weeks previously, not checked lately; rather, gospel music. Huge het from a spoiler carrier on 27185.5, but can be split by LSB tuning. 2346, auto timecheck for 6:45 and weather forecast, banjo music. Then I search for // on FM radio and find it on 99.9; `Abide With Me` until 2355. So now the source is KVBN-LP now promoted to worldwide SW broadcaster. Own site is on US81 N, same ex-church which used to house KLGB-LP 94.3 which closed down, but antenna tower is still up for 100-watt horizontal-only KVBN (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 27184.47, July 30 at 2045 and still 2220 UT, the Enid CBer is beeping continuously instead of relaying one broadcast station or another (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 97.3, July 30 at 1755 UT on caradio, CCI including ``Mother Angelica will be taking calls...``, [A neat trick since she died on March 27, 2016 --- and as ``more Catholic than the Pope`` must not be on track for beatfication by the current regime]; 1757 EWTN and Global Catholic Radio mentioned. Doubt it`s Es; we are in unseasonably cool and wet spell, with fringe tropo up. WTFDA FMDB gets no 97.3 hits on EWTN or Eternal! But it`s probably nearby: KKNG-FM 97.3 BLANCHARD OK RELIGIOUS TEACHING 1.0 kW 244.0 m 35-10-38 97-36-10 2BC0 Visit us at WWW.OKCR.ORG Not a hint that this one is Catholic until going to website: OKLAHOMA CATHOLIC RADIO, ARCHDIOCESE OF OKC including: https://okcr.org/schedule Sat noon to 1 pm: `The Church Alive`, not labeled as an EWTN program, but several others are; and admittedly an EWTN affiliate. This raises a question about my presumed log of KNEH-LP 97.3 Hélena MT on July 23 during a big sporadic E opening with lots of other Montana stations; based on it also being Catholic. Blanchard is beyond OKC, SW of Norman, 141 km = 88 miles. Anyhow, the OKCR network in OK, with no info about which are real stations, which LP, or translators: ``FIND YOUR LOCAL STATION Oklahoma City: 97.3 FM Tulsa: 94.9 FM Broken Arrow: 102.9 FM Clinton: 98.3 FM Edmond: 100.9 FM Elk City: 100.7 FM Lawton: 88.3 FM Ringwood: 104.9 FM [yet to be heard in nearby Enid; off or on?] Shawnee: 107.1 FM Woodward: 93.3 FM En Español West Oklahoma City: 99.3 FM Midwest City: 97.7 CLICK HERE TO LISTEN ONLINE!`` BTW, KKNG was formerly the call on 92.5 OKC with beautiful music format ``King``, to go with 95.5 Tulsa KWEN ``Queen``, still called but not so branded, while 92.5 became KOMA ex-1520. I was hearing it while driving around Enid; even before I pull into the garage, KKNG is losing out by 1759 to a country station; 1803 ad with 620 area code and Dodge City mention; 1808 ``Continuous Country, Q97``: KKJQ 97.3 GARDEN CITY KS COUNTRY Q 97 FM 100.0 kW 244.0 m KKJQ THE DAWG --- 317 km = 197 mi. Later I`m back in the garaged car hoping that an Es FM DX opening east of here will spread a little further, but at 0100 UT July 31, nothing more unusual than another fringe Kansan overtaking Okie KOKC translator, ID as ``KWKN, Hayes, your new home for news, talk and sports``, so isn`t the `Cowboy` branding passé?: KWKN 95.3 WAKEENEY KS TALK/SPORTS 95.3 THE COWBOY 100.0 kW 158.0 m --- 341 km = 212 miles, west of Hayes. Well south of Hayes, KKDT Burdett on 93.5, tho only 95 kW is a regular on the fringe, just faded up from nothing to sufficient --- 248 km = 154 miles (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** PUERTO RICO. 28315 USB, July 29 at 2337, Spanish QSO almost in the beaconband, mentions KP4WQ in Aguadilla, presumably him rather than his contact: ARRL/FCC lookup: VILLANUEVA, LUIS, KP4WQ, Calle North East 281 A, AGUADILLA, PR 00603. Only one other USB QSO audible on band, English (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 13710.056, July 29 at 1502, SBA with Qur`an, poor signal direct and off-frequency as usual; scheduled to 1757; not to be confused with MWV Madagascar Arabic hour at 2000 which is also off-frequency, July 27 measured on 13709.949 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, July 29 at 2209, REE has again replaced English with Spanish, on a Friday, another show about Cuban music, not exactly a rarity on SW thanks to FTIOM and RHC. May well be worthwhile program, and I could even understand it, but refuse to listen as long as token English be canceled? Or at least in limbo (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, August 1 at 2200, REE another Monday, another week, another month, still no token English as allegedly scheduled on REE; rather another episode of `Canciones Ténebres` about Cuba. Rechecking the English podcast page, still nothing new since 16 July. Ironically, just before the 2200 timesignal was a song about summer in English on the program outroed in Spanish as `Canciones de Verano`. Something`s messed up in Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Wednesday August 3 at 2200 UT, REE still no English, but more of `Canciones Ténebres` about Cuba. Following links below for what`s supposedly on now, `El Guateque`, that program last aired on 14/02/2020! Alan Roe has found a webpage of program predixions for the next sextaday showing English will resume on UT Monday 8 August: https://www.rtve.es/play/guia-rne/radioexterior/6-dias/ But this is very confusing: it does show English for Martes 09 at 00:00 = which is local time, i.e. UT Monday 2200; but it does not correctly show what is axually airing today Wednesday 2200 UT = Jueves 04 at 00:00: For ``hoy`` at 00:00 at first claims Emisión Sefardí, which is really at 2200 UT Tuesdays; yet ``mañana`` at 00:00, `Amigos de la Onda Corta`, the media (hardly DX) program in Spanish, but that must refer to local Friday, since the following tab is labeled sábado 06! AdlOC should really appear at 2200 UT Thursdays. Something`s messed up in Madrid. It also shows when on the local day English is at 00:00, it`s also at 04:00 = 0200 UT. Unfortunately, that`s exactly when the SW transmitters close down (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.021, July 29 at 2210, VOT direct seems almost dead air as received direct, requiring LSB to avoid the RTTY. By 2229 I rate it undermodulated, with whine. At 2247 I switch to UTwente which always gets it much better intercepted on the way to N America, and which displays traditional exact frequency offset. It`s S9+50 with sufficient modulation now. 2251 `Did You Know That?` some town in Tuerkiye produces 80 kilotons of honey; sign off with full English schedule which seems to be correct but jumbled; IS to 2257.5* before we may get into any bonus spurious Germanizing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830, August 1 at 2205, no signal direct from VOT English; and still no signal into UTwente at 2253 just before it would have closed. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9830.007, August 2 at 2212, VOT English is on today, S9+5/20 into Maryland, S9+55 into UTwente: they agree on the unusual +7 Hz offset (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** UKRAINE [non]. (7730), July 28 at 0500, miss checking UR1 via WRMI for `Ukraine: Security Issue`; instead know we can hear it here: http://ukr.radio/images/ckeditor/files/files/ENG_NEWS_27_07_22.mp3 Of 7+ minutes for day 157 of the war, including: four strikes on Russian strongholds in Kherson region; optimistic Kherson city will be liberated; new weapons arriving helpful, but not enough; more than 25 megatons of grain now expected to be delivered; American banks to be charged for continuing to do business with Russia. Or, after going thru a few steps from: http://www.nrcu.gov.ua/ua_security_issue where it says, and also available in up to 7 other languages: ``Actual news about the russian-Ukrainian war.

We offer only reliable information from confirmed sources: reports on the course of the war, coverages from cities attacked by russia, as well as news about life in the home front regions of Ukraine. If you want to be aware of the situation in Ukraine, but do not have time to read the news all day – the “Ukraine: security issue” is for you.`` As for missing from usual 0500 UT start, the night before, Richard Langley says, ``Based on my recording of the relay of UR1 by Radio Baltic Waves International using the U.

My last 10 seconds of closing were blotted to something else. This is a malady of System F which cannot be fixed until the current automation be replaced. Also confirmed UT Friday July 29 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S6/S9 into Maryland SDR with storm crashes. Here it plays to completion 0359. Also confirmed Friday July 29 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9 direct, not sure if some jamming below. Next: Friday 1815 as above (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2149 monitoring: confirmed Friday July 29 from 1815.4 on IRRS SW via Bulgaria 7290 & 14580 into UTwente SDR; and AM Italia, 1323 kHz, but not 918 or 207 kHz, into nearby Noale SDR. Tuned in at 1800 to find `Feature Story News` in progress on 1323, and 7290 cutting on later a bit before 1801. Spotlite portion at 1803, headlines; 1805 music fill; 1813 birdsongs introducing TUC Radio, now a regular thing at exactly this time, and for only 2 minutes! Chris Hedges starts to interview someone on July 8, till chop to 1815 IRRS ID and 1815.4 WOR. Details: https://tucradio.org/podcasts/newest-podcasts/the-chris-hedges-report-splinterlands-climate-dystopia/ Second harmonic of 7290 Kostinbrod also JB audible on 14580 into UTwente, not always the case. Strangely, both have the same RTTY/FSK warble on the USB side but evitable by LSB tuning. Or by narrowing bandwidth below 1.5 kHz. Checked 3 x 7290 = 21870 just in case, but nothing. Despite proximity of Noale to Villa Estense, 1323 has plenty storm crashes, and I see on Blitzortung that there is lots of lightning over northern Italy and much of Europe. There is also music and talk CCI from an understation, presumably the 15 kW Romanian station with minority service in German, but which WRTH 2022 did not show at this time. Notable that the IRRS IDs, or NEXUS/IBA/IRRS no longer ask for P-mail to that Milano POBox, which IRRS has otherwise said is no longer valid; rather an e-mail address, such as after WOR at 1844 completed, into music fill. WOR 2149 also confirmed Friday July 29 at 2050 the 2030 on AM Italia, 1323 only, S9+10/15. Now there is a fast SAH and music CCI from some understation when Romania is presumably off. Also confirmed UT Saturday July 30 at 0130 on WRMI, checked on several remotes to the NW or NNW which seem to be struggling with undermodulation; best into Maryland with S9+10/20.

Notice that I misspelt Ourgla, Algeria site as ORUGLA - well, better than making it QURGLA as I sometimes see it. Also confirmed Saturday July 30 at 1600 on WRN for North America webcast. Is anyone listening direct from International Vacuum? Unable to check Sat July 30 at 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, since nearby SDR is offline.

Preceded by new canned ID by YL claiming frequencies used by NEXUS/IBA are *7125*, 9510 and 1323! Vaguely recall IRRS may have been on 7125 in the distant past, but always has been hamband in Europe! Imaginary now instead of 7290 Bulgaria? see Italy [non]. Still shows 7290 here: https://www.nexus.org/member-services/radio-and-tv/schedules/a22-schedule/ The announcement must be recently recorded, since 1323 was not activated until this year. WOR 2149 also confirmed Sunday July 31 at 2230 on WRMI 5950, S9+20 into Athens, Georgia SDR; Knoxville is running but blank waterfall. Also confirmed UT Monday August 1 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/9+10 into Georgia; but it`s not L&C, a shame this one can no longer be aimed WNW, but SW from FL. Also confirmed UT Monday August 1 from 0259 on Area 51 webcast -- BUT WBCQ 6160- is OFF the air! As checked on remotes and direct - and so is R. Angela 5130-; but 7490- & 9330+ are still on and strong, and there are no storms near Monticello now. What`s the problem? 3265+ is not on either. I should have kept monitoring, but not rechecked until 0355 when both are back on, into Maryland SDR: 5129.973 toward the end of `Concert Hall` on R. Angela; 6159.937 with repetitive looping? music, presumably HRI on Area 51. So I don`t know whether back on with part of WOR before 0328.

Never mind. Poor in noise direct but I then check PEI SDR where this high a frequency in HNL is JBA on -70/72 Hz = 7489.929, while 5130 minus 24 Hz = 5129.976 is S9+10/15; and 3265+ is NOT on this week (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9330.027, July 31 at 1506, WLCR via WBCQ in English, S9+10/20. Larry Will explains: ``Hi Glenn, WBCQ tells me that the superstition's R-420 transmitter is online, but part of the driver circuit has failed and is in Continental's hands for rebuilding and/or replacement. In the meantime they are using an alternative driver, which explains the slight frequency offset you've observed these past few weeks. If I learn anything else about the operation, I'll let you know.

(101.1 FM), July 28 circa 1530 UT, on KSFR Santa Fe NM webcast, DJ Susan Ohari mentions that their main transmitter was hit by lightning about 4 am [10 UT], so is now on alternative transmitter reducing/changing coverage. But stream continues. I always try to listen to her `Beyond Borders` world music show Thursdays at 1505-1800 UT. Don`t be put off by her halting style of speaking: she plays some great music! https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KSFR&service=FM coverage map shows site is just west of Los Álamos, so that SF itself is barely within the `local` contour, while the `fringe` contour goes right thru Albuquerque. Taos is on the outskirts oppositely. Pattern is slightly direxional skewed to favor SF to the ESE. https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KSFR&service=FM But FCC FM Query shows a different pattern, circular except pulled in at 190 degrees SSW to only 49%, disfavoring ABQ, and also reduced from 160 to 220 degrees.
