** BRAZIL [and non]. 5939.48, Jan 23 at 0720, R. Voz Missionária on
its signature off-frequency, S7/S8 JBA tnx to attenuated so not a
problem 5935 WWCR only S9+5/20. Nothing propagating on RVM`s 9665v or
11755v. Rudolf Grimm reports: Mr. Alvaro Barcelos (engineer /
technician at Radio Voz Missionária) recently informed that the 5940
kHz transmitter / antenna system has been technically revised, now
powered by 10 kW resulting in stronger signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 10125 CW, Jan 23 at 0716, HK3QQ, with his always loop of
letters in keyboard order including some errors, as I have detailed
before. Often audible but not relogged. Now however, it`s notable
because I`m getting this after finding ZERO signals on the 9 MHz
broadcast band! If there were ANY around Colombia they would be
audible too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** COLOMBIA. 1309.67, Jan 23 at 0757 UT, JBA carrier hetting 1310.00

hour dead air as usual in English? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 8992 USB, Jan 23 at 1522-1524+, USAF crypto exercise from
``Space Run`` - tactical ID sounded like. Full fonetik message,
repeated with internal noise burst QRM: D5JKXXWUVHYATFAO3HNO7OMFV3U -
the circular symbols are Oscars, not zeroes.

8992 USB, Jan 23 at 2107-2111* caught another one in progress from

not on the air as I am about to check whether RAE Portuguese relay
would yet again repeat the 3-year-old `Atualidade DX` program. Jeff

that`s what it is per:

First reported at 1828 on 6950, later 6960. Obviously unconcerned

so time for another Oklahoma Emergency Ops net, but nothing. Oh,

call, each call twice fonetikaly but poor reception makes many not

Compare to my report Jan 14: some called there are not even called
this week. Complete at 1507, asks for late checkins? One, JBA, then
terminating net till next week.

At 1508, WPFY721 calls WNBE830, making an early check-in to the
Missouri net which starts at 1530; discuss coming winter weather
warnings in both states. WNPV700 Durant also heard again until 1511.

Did not check 5140-USB for Missouri net at 1530, but at 1535, NCS
WNBE830 securing net, this one on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays (Glenn

neither near Fayetteville. There *is* a 1490 in far Fayetteville NC,
WAZZ with AC/CHR format, which would be a great catch; and the ESPN
mention could have been some other station. Radio-locator shows WAZZ
with Top-40 format = 2 x 20; no website to see if `Top 20` be a thing

CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN
SMILE FM
MICHIGAN'S POSITIVE HITS

except for one each in OH and AR - not this one in KS. A change I
first noted several months ago. KSNS on radio-locator.com leads to:
https://www.krejksns.org/

``KREJ 101.7 FM
Keeping Ready Expecting Jesus
KSNS 91.5 FM
Keep Singing New Songs

KREJ and KSNS are listener supported Christian radio stations
operating from Medicine Lodge, Kansas and serving south central Kansas
and northwest Oklahoma. KREJ carries teaching programs, drama, local
worship services, and a variety of Christian music. It operates on
101.7 FM at 50,000 watts. KSNS broadcasts contemporary Christian music
on 91.5 FM at 96,000 watts. Area volunteers are an important part of
both stations.

New Owner! The FCC approved the sale of KREJ and KSNS to Smile FM on
May 28, and the sale was completed soon after that.

Ed C., with Larry Martin’s help, has fixed the distortion and buzzing
that has plagued the KREJ signal for several months. Also, they have

** COLOMBIA. From Arctic Radio Club mv-eko Jan 19, logs corresponding
to my off-frequency carrier DX:

``1100 2.1 0300 HJAT Caracol R, Barranquilla har ”spårat ur”. Kändes
igen på Caracols juljingel
(1100,284) JE = Jan Edh, Hudiksvall – lyssnar-QTH i Fredriksfors.
NetSDR. Just nu är det 285 som används i
stort sett hela tiden. 285-gradaren är åtgärdad men flera andra
antenner är skadade och ligger
delvis på marken.

1100 13.1 0500 HJAT Caracol Radio, Barranquilla med fint id på timmen.
Låg riktigt snett på
(1100,290) så lätt att separera från resten. RÅ = Lisette Åkesson,
Bjärred – Kiwi på Hallandsåsen.``

** CUBA [and non]. 670, Jan 20 at 0736 UT, Cuban music capturing from
WSCR; Rebelde, of course, as // 5025 which happens to be not only on
the air now but modulating. WRTH 2026 has a dozen Rebeldes on 670, two
of them 50 kW. Under non-auroral condx, WSCR owns 670 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** IRAN [non]. CORREXION: not 13784.986 but should be 13754.986 -
misread my own original scribble: 13754.986, Jan 13 at 1624, talk
presumed Persian and music bits, S8/S9 with fading into UTwente, no
jamming audible, 1630 R. Farda ID in passing. Almost faded out by
1640. Contradictory schedules have emerged since my last report, but
here it is now, presumably via offfrequency UAE site. Own website
claims 13765, not 13755:

** U S A. Major geomag storm affecting propagation: Jan 19 at 2212,
17525 WMLK has heavy Doppler flutter, S9/+10; 17790 & 15770 WRMIs also
heavy; 13845 WWCR some Dfl; but 13570 R Marti, and at 2218 11880,
S9+20 deadair from RHC without Doppler flutter (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 9395, Mon Jan 19 at 2220, `On the Media` S9+20/30 via WRMI
with funding credits, break for announcement about experimental SW
segment on WRMI, for Season 2 of `Divided Dial` inviting SWLs to send
voice messages, and we hear a few, from Todd, someone and Lynn. 2223
back to show about Epstein, DOJ, Dan Bongino, etc. Refers to events on
days of week like Wednesday, Thursday as if a new weekly show. Suspect
it`s really *still* an old episode, and indeed I hear exactly the same
thing when I monitor the *only* OTM on the WRMI server, dated March 1,
2025! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 910 kHz, Jan 20 at 0730 UT, BBC news. Surely WSUI Iowa City,
which used to be a WORLD OF RADIO affiliate. The only NPR station on
910, and no Canadians. Program sked shows indeed with BBCWS overnight.
Seldom heard here. U2 5/4 kW. Night pattern has notch to the SSW but
minor lobe to SW:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 980 kHz, Jan 20 at 0731 UT, ``Be Still My Soul`` hymn
solo in English, so not KMBZ with `C2CAM`, during auroral conditions.
Nothing to south but maybe WYFN Nashville, less unlikely than a few
other RELs listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
