** ANGUILLA. DGS, 11775, Oct 15 at 2142, just open carrier having lost
modulation, before nominal QSY time 2200 to 6090. Via WWCR 13845, PMS was weak
but audible, so once again a problem at Anguilla. DentroCuban jammer was
already starting up in anticipation of R. Martà much later on 11775 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ANTARCTICA. LRA36, 15476 (not 15475), making another rare appearance with
some music modulation to go along with the carrier, Oct 15 at 2051; 2059
announcement by W, presumably sign-off, as was gone a minute or two later,
before I could get another receiver going to check whether it now has equal
modulation on LSB and USB as some have reported (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** ARGENTINA. RAE, 15344.9, Oct 15 at 2113 M&W speaking German. Stronger than
Morocco but still enough signal from that to het it. Later in the hour, RAE had
improved by comparison (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. RHC SNAFUs Oct 15: at 2046 nothing on the scheduled English frequency
13680, but OK on 11760. 13680 still missing at 2117 recheck while 11760 had
Mailbag show with ``Ed Newman``.
RHC Arabic missing from 11800 at 2045, but OK on 11750. After 2100 both are
supposed to be in Spanish. At 2118, 11800 had reappeared with strong, distorted
signal in Spanish, but gone again at 2121, leaving presumed Bulgaria with much
weaker signal, while 11750 had the usual heavy SAH from interfering KSDA
Chinese during this hour. At 2141, 11800 was on once again, overmodulated, SAH
with Bulgaria, M&W talking an echo apart from // 11750 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY [non]. 11795 with news in American English Oct 15 at 2042, weak and
poor with splatter from WHRI 11785. My first guess was VOA, but scheduled as DW
English via Rampisham (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. VON, 15120, Oct 15 at 2049 with Nigerian news, good signal and
fairly good modulation but squeezed by splatter from Spain 15110 and WYFR
15130. Intelligibility and studio modulation quality decreased when switched
from M to W announcer. This closes at 2100 anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTEJNING DIGEST)
** U S A. Not only is KVOH active on 17775, but strong enough Oct 15 at 2042 to
bring with it the wide, dirty spur around 17921-17923, matching music on the
fundamental; also much weaker 147 kHz on the other side around 17628. I was
wondering whether the LA wildfires were threatening it again on the mountaintop
of Simi Valley (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
