Saturday, September 22 2018

** ALGERIA [non]. 9655, Sept 21 at 2156, romantic song in unknown
language at S7; scheduled is TDA via FRANCE at 20-22 (Glenn Hauser, OK
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 11840, Sept 21 at 2159, RHC in suptorted Spanish, much weaker
than usual here, only S5, and plus/minus 10 parasites inaudiblized.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 11860, Sept 21 at 2159 music from Radio MartÃ is
S9+25, 2200 cut to dead air, audiblizing jamming noise underneath but
no RHC. RM and jamming still taking weekends off, no signals after
1400 Saturday Sept 22 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. 7550, Sept 21 at 2152, S Asian song S5 in AM, so another day
AIR GOS is not in DRM here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KIRITIMATI. 846, Sept 22 at 0622, JBA carrier here presumed R.
Kiribati. During my initial bandscan at 0606, did not hear it but a
bunch of Europeans; see UNIDENTIFIED (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1948 monitoring: NOT confirmed
Saturday Sept 22 from 1452 on 6190-CUSB Hamburger Lokalradio, the 1431
broadcast as monitored via UTwente SDR --- instead Chinese music, talk
for at least rest of hour; did not notice any change in signal later,
but some familiar CRI theme. Still going past 1530, conversation
intonation sounding like German, but not vocabulary, until 1534 ``auf
wiederhÃren``!? So there may have been some schedule change in China.

Alan Gale, England, reports at 1457: ``Hi Glenn, Well, I've been
checking 6190 since around 1200 UT and not heard anything that sounds
like them [HLR]. There is something on there at 1445, but it's very
weak and it sounds like a woman's voice and music, and it's in and in
AM only, so possibly PBS. Nothing at all on the Twente webSDR either,
so I suspect that they're off the air for some reason. Alan``

Recently it was either WOR or no WOR, rather than anything audible
from China altho PBS Xinjiang is scheduled in Mongolian long before
and after our time; and in HFCC I see that NHK direct in Chinese is
also on 6190 at 1430-1500, which I have also never heard via UTwente.

** U S A. (7490v), UT Sat Sept 22 at 0029, checked WBCQ webcast amid
`Alan Weiner Worldwide` at opportune moment since he was talking with
a caller about the hi-power project. The Continental 420-DM
transmitter has not arrived yet, undergoing tests at the factory.
Expected around November 1, and then will take another month to
install. The rotatable antenna external work is completed; now under
construxion are the ``internal`` dipole antennas within it. Some
photos of Angela and this are now at http://www.wbcq.com

Caller wonders how he can hear WBCQ in DRM. Since the transmitter will
be capable, Allan says they will experiment with it, but nothing
definite. Also says it will be ``compatible`` so can listen in AM at
same time! This is news to me as I have never heard or heard of DRM
being compatible with AM, i.e. both modes on same frequency at same
time. Maybe AW has it confused with hybrid IBOC?

John H Carver, Jr, in mid-north Indiana, monitored the whole show and
reports this week:

``Listening again on 7490 this evening and show started right on time.
Comments made during the opening theme suggested that the show would
be political this evening with the phrase ``moon bat socialists``
being used. Allan and Angela in the studio this evening. Storms in the
area and temps in the high forties in Northern Maine. Allan says
summer is over. Allan opened with the statement that he is very
disappointed with his generation and what they are doing in
Washington. Then switched to a discussion about religion which was
interrupted at 0006 with a phone call about Near Fest and looking for
headphones. After that back to the discussion of religion. Allan
states that there are two types of religion. One promotes peace and
love and one promotes war. Implies that Muslims are Satanists.

Phone call from Freddie at 0017 with comments on pictures he's just
seen of Angela. Says Allan has a beautiful wife. Talk of transmitters,
WRMI and Family Radio. Allan insists that the private shortwave
stations in this country are national assets. Says the transmitter for
the superstation is now expected in November.

Phone call from Dave in Indiana at 0036 with signal report and talk
about division in this country caused by congress. Urges that we vote
out the moon bat Democrats this next election. Says he's not in love
with the Republicans either but that they are better than the
Democrats. Mentioned socialist communists more than once. Then into a
mini rant about political and sexual correctness. Thinks the current
supreme court nominee should be approved and the allegations about him
ignored.

Phone call at 0050 from Ramsey. During this conversation Allan stated
that he knew that he and the superstation were being investigated by
the FBI. Said they were welcome to come to the station anytime they
wanted and look around. Says now that the superstation won't be on the
air till spring. March or May.

Reading of emails at 0056. Programming report from Robert stated that
Dead Frog Radio would premier next week after AWWW with a two hour
live show. A reception report from Mexico came in. Prayer at 0100.
Show was off the air at 0102 followed by some fill music and station
was off the air at 0105. A very subdued Angela this evening. John``

I didn`t quote John`s AWWW report last week in my own logs, but it`s
in DXLD 18-38 imminently (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search Sept 22 at 0602-
0616 UT: 855(2), 837, 783, 774, 729, 648, 621, 612, 585, 558(2), 531;
882, 918?, *936, 1017, 1026, 1044, 1098(2), 1107, 1125, 1134, 1215,
1224. *936 the strongest, presumed Agadir, Morocco; (2) = some have at
least two carriers beating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 1710 UT September 22

Glenn Hauser logs September 20-21, 2018

Friday, September 21 2018

** CUBA. 13740, Sept 21 at 1418, China Plus relay in English is very undermodulated; must turn up the volume compared to e.g. 13700 RHC Spanish; at least the two are not producing spurs today. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN. 774, Sept 21 at 1200, I am interrupting a 9-kHz bandscan (see UNIDENTIFIED) just in time to hear the NHK top-of-hour final prolonged timesignal chime, from 500 kW NHK-2, JOUB, Akita, on the NW coast of Honshu, but remains the #1 MW TP signal here, and despite splash from nearby 780 KSPI Stillwater, worsened since that flipped to music format. Along with 693, 747 & 828, other superpower NHKs, 774 stronger than other carriers thruout my monitoring span today between 1150 and 1215 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 13565-CW, Sept 21 at 1417, K6FRC beacon from California barely audible enough to copy vs CODAR. Usually inaudible, and I wonder if it be on the air always or not? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.1, Thursday September 20 at 2124, WBCQ in an `Allan Weiner Worldwide` playback, with Angela and caller discussing texting replacing phoning or other human contact. Yes, Thu 21-22 is now on schedule
http://wbcq.com/schedule/
as Available Time Slot, among several others. It also still claims Glenn Hauser`s World of Radio airs on 9330 every day at 2330, except Saturdays 2130!!! NOT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9455 & 7490, re Hal Turner show replaced by music Sept 20 after 0100 on WRMI & WBCQ, Richard Langley replies on the WOR iog:

``He had a power surge in the studio just before scheduled airtime and had to reboot everything. Details here: http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3174-archive-hal-turner-show-sept-19
-- not that I'm interested in most of his drivel. I noticed the late airing on 9455 kHz when turning the bands around 0200 UT, hearing the "Star Spangled Banner" performed "cringeworthy" by Madison Rising. Looks like WRMI managed to transmit the second hour live. -- Richard Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search Sept 20 at 0605-0613 UT: 846 (this one only presumed TP Kiritimati); 855, 1044, 1116, 1125, 1215, 1413, 531, 558, 774, 828.

Sept 21 at 0246 while computers, TVs, etc. are also running: 1044-NE, 1215, 1503.

Sept 21 at 0600 with other devices off: 774, 747, 738, 639, 612, 558, 855, 882, [no 846], 936, 1017, 1098, 1107, 1125.

Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search Sept 21 at 1150-1159 on R75 with E-W longwire: 558, 594(2), 603, 612, 621, 657, 666, 675, *693, 702, 711, 747, 756, 765, *774, 792, 819, *828(2), 837, 846, 855, 873, 909, 927, 936, 972, 1035, 1044, 1098, 1134, 1287. I then hasten back to 774; see JAPAN. * here means strongest signals, surely also NHK; (2) means (at least) two carriers beating.

Sept 21 at 1202-1215 UT, another search this time on the rotatable DX-398 with DF notations for most: 558-NW, 594-SSE? (beware, probably the KZLS 1640 spur I tracked down a few years ago), 612-WSW, 675-NW, 684-WSW, *693-NW, 702(2)-WSW, 765-WSW, *774-NW, 792-NW, 828-NW, 846-NW, 882(2), 891-NW, 936-WSW, 972-NW, 1035(2)-NW, 1053-NW, 1098-W, 1134-NW. 828 is still in at 1218, almost sunrise 1219 UT (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7466.75-USB, Sept 21 at 0552, strange net with multiple stations, including some Spanish words but otherwise unknown language; whistling (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 1533 UT September 21

Glenn Hauser logs September 18-19-20, 2018

Thursday, September 20 2018

Correcting error in first item: RHC English on 6000 not 6060:

** CUBA. 6060, Sept 20 at 0136, this RHC Spanish frequency is off. 6000 English is suptorted, while 6165 is not distorted, but undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
