** BRAZIL. 28450 USB, March 23 at 2213, PY4JW quickly working US
stations, QRZ? Only a few phonesigs make it thru the local S9 high
local line noise level here. Must get the OG&E guy on it. A quick
multi-band scan MHz by MHz on the R75, finds the worst noise peaks on
28, 19, 8 down to 4 MHz. QRZ.com: ``PY4JW Brazil flag Brazil, JÉBER
WILKER COLARES, Rua Rio Pardo 244 - Centro, Taiobeiras-MG - Cep
39550-000, Brazil`` page full of certificates and antenna shots (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA [non]. 13650, March 23 at 2306, CRI ``Portuguese`` music fill
via CUBA is missing; apagón aftermath saving the ChiCom some pesos?
Doubt it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 23 at 2224, RHC dead air with howl now here
instead of 15140 earlier in day; while 11880 is S9+10/30 in Spanish,
but somewhat undermod with hum. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9710, March 24 at 0630, RHC with S9 dead air with some hum;
and 11760, S7/9+20 of DA with windhowl. Ho, hum, the incompetence
prolongs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 9800 USB, March 24 at 0213, S9+20 of Mix Radio
International with heavily produced IDs; tnx to this tip: ``[WOR] Mix
Radio International on 9800 USB as of 0200 UTC - This North American
pirate's playing electronic and contemporary music up in the 31-meter
band tonight. I'm hearing a very good signal via an SDR in Wisconsin.
Out here near Seattle where we're still pre-sunset, I'm getting just
barely audible music at times. Eric Fetters-Walp, Lake Stevens,
Washington USA. My QSL website: https://treehouseswl.mystrikingly.com
`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 95.5, March 23 circa 2340 UT, it`s been quite a while
since I have driven thru the intersexion of S. Cleveland & W. Owen K.
Garriott in Enid, where there has been the focal point of a very weak
pirate with rock music. Yes, it`s still there, undermodulated rock and
$ tereo pilot is on; barely enough to overcome the adjacent 95.7 local
and two fringe Okies on 95.5 itself. Never heard any announcements,
let alone ID, but never listened for more than a few minutes.
Meanwhile no signals around downtown on 93.1 or 95.1 today nor lately
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 16, Virtual 46, KOCM Norman OK, is only 27 kW ERP, and
usually not strong enough to decode thru my antenna, altho its main
channel is on coveted low cable channel 6. Gospel huxters. However,
when I am getting it direct with a bit of tropo help? I discover 46-3,
KOCM-SD which is Daystar Reflections [sic, no x`s here!], showing
scenes of nature with locations captioned, and quiet relaxing music,
not necessarily religious, with Bible verses - if you ignore those
intrusions, it`s quite pleasant. March 24 circa 0500 UT, after
watching only a couple hours, I hope I am correct that it`s 24/7 like
this? Here`s the full network listing:

(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 23 at 2306, VOT is JBA direct, presumably in
English. Maybe will be much better from next week on 11785 at 2200
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2339 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday March 24 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, VG S9+10 into S Texas SDR. Once
again a preceding talk program cut off abruptly at 0330; I have no
idea what it be. Need to check at 0300.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 24 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9.

Also confirmed Tuesday March 24 at 1400 on WRMI 9955, by now degraded

** U S A. 5085, March 23 at 2140, George McClintock notifies me that
this WTWW transmitter is finally back on the air, so unless something
else go wrong, WORLD OF RADIO should appear UT Saturday at 0300. Not
on the air when I turn on right away, but is at 2200 into Georgia SDR
with `Scriptures for America`, S9+35, then cut modulation, so just
testing. At 2208 direct, S9+10/20 vs high local noise level. Off at
2303, but sked before fracasal was limited, only from 0100? But still
not back on air after 0100 or before 0300 March 24 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A. 15770, Mon Mar 23 at 2018, WRMI in Russian, S6/S8. Altho
have added some seculars like R. Liberty and WRN clients, this on
System G is `E. Bible Fellowship` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, Mon Mar 23 at 2222, S9/+10 of dead air from WRMI-11
which skedgrid shows xmtr not starting until 2300 with System D. Nor
accounted for in any other System program grid. At 2300 starts to play
`Joy to the World`, harmonious version with guitar & chorus in
English; what? Xmas carols can`t be played in March! 2305 segué to
another song. Certainly not RAE relay in Portuguese as still
scheduled, nor in Japanese, Chinese or Spanish. What next? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1440 kHz, KPUR Amarillo: more about that as in previous log,
from radio-locator.com about its FM side: ``Claude, Texas, "Texas 95.7
the Armadillo", Station Format: Country, tell me about "Country"
stations, find more Country stations. https://www.957kpur.com/
:website``

Note: may well be the only station formerly named for an armadillo --
or was that a typo for Amarillo?! WTFDA FMDB finds none in the Slogan
field. BTW, we have a resident armadillo on our property; need to ask
if s/he be familiar with KPUR. See:

https://fulcharmnames.com/funny-names-for-armadillos/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9695, March 24 at 0214, classical music, as first
reported by John Figliozzi, presumably still in Florida: ``9695 -
Classical music from an as yet undetermined and unlisted station
(China via Cuba perhaps?)`` - surely not, but I hear more of it at
0629, S5. Nothing at all listed at these times in Aoki, EiBi - could
it be a new A26 operation jumping the gun? Nothing there either nor in
B25 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 23 at 1407, RHC not off the air, S9+20 with good
modulation during song in English; also weaker 15140 S7/9+5 and not
too much windhowl? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880 & 15140, March 23 at 1858, RHC in Kriyol, about
S9+10/15 on both into Georgia SDR, but 15140 is JBM and 11880 slightly
overmodulated and distorted. Somethings always wrong at RHC, but
tolerable. Instead of cutting to dead air before English can start,
keeps modulating! 1859 IS, 1900 English opening previewing contents of
first [only] hour: News, Viewpoint, Science/Medical, Culture/Arts.
First news item about boats from Yucatán carrying aid for Cuba (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. March 23 0458+ UT, rapid MW bandscan hears warmongering
Mexican national anthem on all these, even if only buried in QRM: 590,
610, 690, 730, 900, 940, 1060 now it`s 0500, 1190, 1280, 1570, 1670
kHz. This is 11 pm HCM, i.e. immediately following `La Hora Nacional`
on UT Mondays; otherwise NAs more likely to play at local midnight,
which is 0600 UT except Texas border cities forced to observe American
CDT = 0500 UT. Identity obvious in most cases from major stations, but
what about: ?

590, XEPH in CDMX is biggest 25/10 kW, while closest XEFD Rio Bravo
does not NA per IRCA Mexican Log; two others. Immediately following ID
is time to snatch IDs. 0503 ``La estación más caliente?`, string of
government PSAs, 0504, ``esto es música continua`` - IRCA shows `La
Más Caliente` is a slogan of XEPH, a.k.a. Sabrosita.

610, XESORN Saltillo Coah is closest, 4 others

1280, XEAW Monterrey probably, but 4 others

Some other SS were not NAing as I tuned across: 660, 770, 1050.

By 0508 some more SS which may or may not have NAed: 860 lectura, 0510
music.

1090 at 0523 lectura on N/S antenna only and LSB required to avoid
KRLD IBOC noise peaking 1093; likely XEAU Monterrey.

1300 at 0525, song; two lowpower Texans are SS:REL, and WNQM Nashville
of WWCR has some Spanish. Three Mexicans led by XEP Juárez, 40 kW day
power, but night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, March 23 at 0452, anti-Christ pirate
Station YHWH, S9/+10 direct, thintonations of Josiah easily readable
but yawn. Some guys never tire of hearing him, hi (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. Sent to KUCO 90.1: ``What is going on? This weekend I
have heard several IDs for KUCO/KBCW/KCSC, the relays you disposed of
a year ago. Inserted within programs; were you playing back old
airchecks? For example, Sunday at 10:20 am {1520 UT} inside Sunday
Baroque? Monday 6:33 am {1133 UT} during Concierto, and why was it
playing then? Monday at 1:21 am {0621 UT} ending From the Top, NPR,
evidently from year 2019, IDs and starting Wind & Rhythm. Why at these
hours? And why don`t you include on your program schedule what`s
really airing at 12-6 am, especially weekends? Regards, Glenn Hauser,
Enid``

Reply: ``Thank you for your email Glenn. KUCO had a connection failure
that links the studios to the tower forcing our station to play backup
audio for on-air and streaming. We have since corrected the issue.
Best, Jeff Hagy, KUCO General Manager,
University of Central Oklahoma, 100 N University Drive, Edmond, OK

UTwente.

Also confirmed Sunday March 22 at 2100 on WRN Europe stream.

Nashville SDR.

Also confirmed Sunday March 22 at 2330 on WRMI 9455, S9+10/25, this
airing restored instead of dead air past two weeks.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 23 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 into S
Texas SDR.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 23 at 0300 on Area 51 webcast only,
just as WBCQ 5130 starts to sign off after `WDCD` show. Next:

2030 UT Monday SW Radio, Germany 3975;

** U S A. 1440, March 23 at 0532 UT, C&W dominating, something new?
Then ``Amarillo`s home for independent country music``, ad for Glenrio
town on NM border; ``Texas 95-7 KPUR``. Seems the 1440 has been off
for quite a while. First noted in MWCircle:

``KPUR Amarillo TX 1440 on air again - From: Bjarne Mjelde Date: Sun,
22 Mar 2026 19:32:17 UTC - Haven't seen any posts in here about it,
but according to the FCC info they resumed operations on March 11.
Heard here at the KONG-HQ in Arctic Norway with 95.7 liners and
mentions of 957kpur.com, likely on day power the last two nights. C&W
format. -- From the world's northernmost DX-er, Bjarne Mjelde, Arctic
Norway, kongsfjord.no, arcticdx.blogspot.com`` and in IRCA, Paul
Walker suggests they turned it on to preserve license, i.e. allowed
silent time about to expire, so we`ll hear if it vanish again. It had
been off for almost a year. KPUR is U2 5/1 kW, no longer farm/talk/ag
format ``all ag all day``; night pattern favors NW/SE put plenty to NE
not notched. 100 kW 95.7 is licensed to Claude, which is ESE of
Amarillo on US287 on the way to Clarendon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, March 23 at 0517, JBA carrier, presmed RV here
instead of 7260 yet; by 0653, S5/S7 music on 7260 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4810, March 23 at 0456 carrier but can`t pull any
modulation even by LSB tuning to avoid Martinique uteblob. Presumably
R. Logos, Chazuta, Perú, only thing in Aoki but 0900-2330/2400; rather
in EiBi at 0815-1500 & 2100-0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 4850, March 23 at 0458, JBA carrier. Maybe Europirate?
Nothing listed now, and around noon in Xinjiang but which is JB
audible 5/6 hours earlier when Kazakhing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

From now and for an unknown time, at least for 3years, I will not use any radio except the remote SDRs for DXing. Recently wemoved from the village back to the city in a space that prohibits the use ofdesktop DXing, a place flooded by high levels of noise in the LMHF bands. Theradio is now used mostly for FM, for news listening.we run politically livelycondition with always very interesting twits every day ..
