** ANGUILLA. 11775, University Network remains off the air as it has been all
week, at 1809 UT check April 22. At this hour DGS could be heard on WWCR 13845,
whew. Still off around 2100, so no ACI to RNA Brasil on 11780. Aw, shux, 6090
is back on at 0120 April 23, // WWCR 5935 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. Checked WRMI 9955 for signs of jamming April 22 at 2041, but
neither jamming nor WRMI audible. The latter may be signing on at 2100, when
WORLD OF RADIO is scheduled on Thursdays, but by next check 2124, nothing but
jamming noise/pulsing was audible on 9955; meanwhile WOR had been confirmed by
webcast as running on WRMI. Thanx a lot, Arnie! No jamming anyway on WWRB 3185,
UT Friday 0330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. R. Kuwait was heard on new 15540 for the 18-21 English broadcast on
April 19, not checked 20, heard again April 21; checked April 22 and --- it`s
in Arabic, instead! At 1805 news with musical stingers, good but fluttery
signal.
Is English back on 11990? No, that is still vacant. 1818 still in Arabic on
15540, ditto 2015; at 2100 5+1 timesignal, fanfare and news in Arabic; frequent
mentions of Amerikiyah, and arraiz. 2108 same fanfare news theme but cut off
the air before it could finish.
Typical unreliable operation and now we have no idea what their intent is; was
it Arabic by mistake today? English on some other unfound frequency today only
or henceforth? English on no frequency? It`s right around sundown before
Friday, so a weekend variation? And what about the onetime morning English at
0500-0800: is it anywhere now? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WBCQ runs both 7415 and 9330-CUSB weekdays at 18-19, but 9330 usually
cuts off shortly after 1900, frustrating those starting to listen to WORLD OF
RADIO on Tue, Wed or Thu. However, Thursday April 22 after confirming that WOR
had started at 1900, on our portable in a parking lot we could also hear WOR
1509 concluding at 1929, ID, plug for new clients, and WBCQ starts Amos & Andy,
9330-CUSB still on the air. A good thing too, since 7415 was just barely
audible out here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Sporadic E observations on nearby HF stations April 22: 13845 WWCR
was inbooming at 1406 UT, but at next check 1809 it was not, back to normal. At
2043, 15825 was inbooming during country music show. TV-FM Skip log showed lots
of VHF activity in the morning, but not in the afternoon.
15610, WEWN very strong at 2044, and thus adding its mushy spur to WYFR 15600
in Romanian; also detectable on 15620 with BFO on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15550-USB, WJHR audible at 2045 April 22 with perpetual preacher,
probably with sporadic E-assist as WEWN was very strong on 15610, WWCR on 15825
