** INTERNATIONAL VACUUM [non]. Re WBCQ`s ``Laser Broadcasting``,
WTF,K? ``535 nm = green laser light = about 560 THz with the usual

Hauser, OK, WOR)

** IRAN [and non]. I have not heard R. Farda again, but follow-ups:

``The announcement on the Radio Farda website about returning to SW:
https://www.radiofarda.com/a/33644714.html

Firefox translates headline to: "Reboot short waves to hear the sound
of tomorrow's radio in Iran" (Farda = Tomorrow). -- Richard
Langley``

``So according to info on this Web page, translating from Persian and
converting from local times listed to UTC, the schedule reads:

12005 04:00-05:00
15430 05:00-08:00
15110 08:00-12:00
15310 12:00-14:00
13755 14:00-16:00
12005 16:00-17:00

Alan Holder, G4ZBH

``The familiar sound of the Iranian bubble jammers was observed at my
location today on 15430 kHz at 09:10 UTC, long after Farda had signed
off this frequency. Was gone when I checked again at 09:30.

15110 kHz is noted at 10:22 with heterodyne (carrier on 15109.85 which
is subject to frequent breaks of a few seconds at a time). They seem
to be having trouble in keeping the jammer on the air. The bubbling
sound was noted starting just before 10:30 UTC. The signal was
Dhabayya, is weak here in the U.K. so the 35 degree antenna must be
highly directional.

Back in the late 1990s a number of low power transmitters (10/20/50
kW) were installed at the Kamalabad site, presumably for jamming
purposes. The last time I heard the Iranian bubble jammers on HF was
in 2013 aimed at blocking Israel's Persian service. I expect that the
jamming equipment is kept in standby, but probably needs some
maintenance.

Farda on HF was never jammed in recent years as the programming
consisted almost entirely of popular music. The Iranian authorities
were probably of the opinion that the audience on short wave was
minimal anyway. With the current unrest in the country I would guess
that people are resorting to all possible ways of hearing the latest
news and many would be turning to short wave radio now. Alan Holder,
G4ZBH, Isle of Wight, U.K.``

There's a big discussion raging on X and threads about a young Iranian
woman (based in Canada) who burns a photo of Supreme Leader Ayatollah
Khamenei and uses the flame to light her cigarette. This powerful act
of defiance — no hijab, openly challenging the regime and social
taboos — has turned her into an ICONIC FIGURE for online supporters of
the Iranian resistance and their opponents who cry that this video
shows a Jew dong that ("keyboard warriors"). She is an Iranian
feminist.

The video (originally inspired by 2022 protests, but this version
exploded around January 9, 2026) is going massively viral right now,
with millions of views across platforms, widespread media coverage
(Daily Mail, NDTV, Euronews, Times of India, etc.), and huge
engagement on social media. Here are the key links:

Pic From the woman`s X page. It ties perfectly into the current wave
of protests in Iran over economic issues and freedom demands and
already has been adapted and adopted by many people in both networks
with picture derivatives as a flag or banner of the revolution`` --

** POLAND [non]. 7570, UT Sun Jan 11 at 0406, news in English about
Ukraine, clips of Kushner et al., pronouncing Zelensky as if the L
were crossed, = ``W``, a dead giveaway to Polish accent, and indeed it
is the announcer with a distinctive voice and accent in English from
PRES as sked daily 0400-0500 on WRN. WRMI-5 7570 xmtr sked atop indeed
shows System E WRN during this hour. But the System E grid omits it
among many other frequencies this hour, instead pretending that 7570
be on System C with `Legends` this hour! Something`s odd at Okee
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9660.007, Sun Jan 11 at 1741, VOT English, S9+15/25 into
UTwente, tuned in early enough this week as `Letterbox` starts
immediately after the news. First, Cemre says that 7 January was a
very special occasion, 63rd anniversary of VOT from 1963y; reaches 85
countries on SW. Come on, powerful SW transmitters can reach *every*
country sooner or later; have heard from listeners in only 85
countries over 63 years?? 1) Mr --? Albanese, Palermo, Italy, heard
Italian on 11970 - so why is he writing in English? Has not been
getting his QSLs. 2) Siddartha Papajarjee, West Bengal, how is New
Year celebrated? Big events in Istanbul. Not getting his QSLs either.
3) Jayanta Chakraborty, New Delhi, found out what Cemre name means:
heavenly warmth, arrival of spring. 44444 on 6125 - again unremarkable
that he keeps hearing the N American, not S Asian frequency at 0400.
Temp in Ankara plunged to -12 C. 4) Alan Roe, UK, enjoyed holiday
special programs such as on NYE. Is a 10-minute walk from River
Thames. 5) Anatoly Klepov, Moscow, wants another QSL. 6) David Ortiz
Martínez, García?, Nuevo León. She addresses him as Mr. Martínez
instead of Mr. Ortiz. 7) Finally, Bob Jenky?, Tomball TX. About QSL

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2329 monitoring: confirmed Saturday
January 10 at 1700 on WRMIs, 9395, S5/S7 into Maryland SDR; 7730
inaudible there despite closer to azimuth, but confirmed S5/S7 into
Georgia SDR.

Also confirmed Saturday January 10 at new time 2030 on SW Radio Gold,
Germany, 3975.003+ S7/S9 into UTwente.

Not yet Sat Jan 10 at 2030v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, poorly audible into St
Louis SDR but timed out too quickly, and not rechecked due to
distraxion.

Also confirmed Saturday January 10 at 2030 on WRMI 9395, S6/9+5 into
N9AZZ remote. I think it played again on same at 2100, as per unclear
WRMI skedgrid.

And yet again on WRMI 9395, confirmed Saturday January 10 at 2200,
S9+10 into N9AZZ remote.

Also confirmed Saturday January 10 at 2245 the 2230 on WRMIs, S9 on
17790 and S9+12 on 15770 both into Maryland SDR.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 11 at 0030 on IRRS/NEXUS/IBA/IPAR/EGR
webcast only.

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 11 at 0238 the 0230 on WRN N America
stream. Just in case, checked all WRMI frequencies on the air, and not
via a single one of them!

Also confirmed UT Sunday January 11 ending at 0501 UT on WA0RCR, 1860
AM, MO, S9+15 into Georgia SDR, so must have started about 0432; was
JBA in HNL direct.

Also confirmed Sunday January 11 at 0730 on WRN via WRMIs: 5850
S9+30/40; 7570 S9+25; 7730 JBA; 7780 S6/S9. But NOT 15770, some other
talk JBA, confirmed not // lower frequencies on second receiver:

WRMI website updated Jan 9 so maybe somewhat correct. Now shows WRMI-9
15770 on System H with RFE/RL 0730-0930. What language(s)? NO info.
System H grid does not show 15770 after 0700. But System E grid,
mostly WRN, claims WRN during 0700-0800 on 15770 and seven! lower
frequencies. Odd.

WOR 2329 also confirmed Sunday January 11 the 1130 when I happen to
awaken at 1149, S9+30 on WRN via WRMI 7570, and JBA on 7780.

BTW, I had referred to 7570 as NW thisaway, but not exactly 315
degrees like on 5850 and 9455, rather 285 degrees ~ WNW. Let`s sort
WRMI frequencies by azimuth:
44: 7730, 15770
160: 9955, 5050, 5800
181: 5010
222: 7780
285: 7570
315: 9455, 5850
355: 9395, 5950
That`s 12; Xmtr #1 is blank. WRMI-7 on 17790 does not specify an
azimuth, just ``SAM/AFR``. It used to be 160, and still is per HFCC.
WRMI never replaced/repaired its only African antenna which IIRC was
81 degrees, a long way from 160. Africans must listen to whatever they
can get off the side. Next:

UNIDENTIFIED. 1030 kHz, Jan 11 at 0338 UT, WGSF Memphis evidently back

English, brief YL plug for ``ag updates in the mornings`` - Ha, the
only explicit C&W listed is WYCZ White Bluff in further TN, U2
1000/250, but I bet it`s closer KBUF Holcomb KS, U2 2500/1200, ``The
Ag Leader`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1340 kHz, Jan 11 at 0335 UT, ``Holy3`` in Spanish, i.e.

UNIDENTIFIED. 1480, Jan 11 at 0809 UT, Spanish, ID as Radio Vida,
Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas. Trouble is, there is no 1480 in NL, nor in

Radio Vida, U4 5000/500. Station list at https://radiovida.com/about/
does not include anything on 1480! Flagship is KRGE 1290 Weslaco TX.
HOWEVER: tho not on own affiliate list, broad search and NRC AM Log
show KLNT Laredo TX as Radio Vida, but it`s on 1490. I`m quite? sure I
was on 1480, but dozy (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1600 kHz, Jan 11 at 0332 UT, talk unseems English,
Spanish nor Vietnamese, but can`t recognize in QRM. Whence could it
be? Normal dominator at night is Hallelujah KATZ St Louis, but condx
are somewhat auroral. NRC AM Log has some Asian or ETHnic stations
which could be anything, but not around here: in CA, CA, MA, WA - or
maybe Cajun from KLEB Golden Meadow LA, 60 watts at night? (Glenn

jam the original R. Farda. Richard Langley noted two carriers until
