** CHINA. 9390-9450 approx., Feb 16 at 1408, distorted FMy spur range from 9450
CNR1 jammer; peaks in a clear spot around 9425, and also bothering V of Korea
9435 in French, tsk2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 6070, Feb 17 at 0416, RHC Spanish suffers from a LAH (low
audible heterodyne), tnx to reactivated CFRX Toronto, which is some 40 Hz
off-frequency. Hint to CFRX: go a bit further down to make it more annoying to
Arnie, as RHC won`t move to benefit anything but themselves. Meanwhile, // 6060
RHC is in the clear tho SRDA Curitiba is capable of QRMing (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN [and non]. 9710, Feb 17 at 0418, closing announcements from IRIB
English, fair with flutter. No mention of `V of Justice` heard, but presumably
this 0320 starter still so-monickered. Checked // 11770 and found it quite
inferior, overshadowed by second adjacents Cuba and Brasil. 9710 signal is
roughly equivalent to 9655 adjacent Turkey which will continue English another
semihour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1430, Feb 16 at 0656 UT, much like last night, station with Mexican
music is barely atop the heavy QRM of SAHing off-frequency mostly US stations,
and looping N/S. Brief break between tunes sounds like ``Radio S?`` ? algo; and
next break at 0659 UT attempts a real ID, sounds like ``XEOA, 14-30 de AM``,
but no such call is listed anywhere. (The real XEOA is 570 in Oaxaca.)
Closest call, tho from the southwest, per Cant? and WRTH is:
1430 XEOX Exa + 106.5 Cd. Obregon, Son. 5,000 500
And if that were it, would expect national anthem at local midnite. Will have
to keep trying, maybe even earlier than 0700 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, Feb 17 at 0411 as I tune in, ``did I remind you my
name is Dr. Benway? [email protected]`` and launches into a story;
fair-poor signal, only pirate around now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 90.1, KCSC-FM Edmond/OKC is a treasure, the only
domestic station we can hear without DX help playing classical/serious music.
Fortunately they are back up to full power. The KCSC signal here in Enid at the
periphery is still not full-quieting in stereo, with the DX-398 whip, but much
better than last month.
A new series is running Sundays at 22-23 UT, `Relevant Tones`, which we enjoyed
immensely Feb 16 --- new music, new experiences. This episode was a CD Grab Bag
of new releases. It`s part of the WFMT syndication, and no doubt now appearing
on many other stations. See
http://blogs.wfmt.com/relevanttones/2014/02/12/cd-grab-bag-2/
It`s still not in the database at
http://www.publicradiofan.com/cgibin/programlist.pl?initial=R
But on WFMT itself, and possibly on stations relaying its network live, the
time is 23-24 UT on Wednesdays. Listening to this show in stereo is a must.
Now explained on homepage

is the outage we experienced in Jan:
``A Note from the GM --- Dear Members and Listeners, If you are a regular
listener, you know that KCSC?s signal was disrupted during the month of
January. KCSC?s antenna, located in the Oklahoma City "antenna farm" near Kelly
and Britton Road, was struck by lightning. Lightning strikes are not unusual,
but in this instance our antenna was damaged, halting our ability to broadcast
in Oklahoma City.
What you experienced between January 8 and January 22 were varying degrees of
static and in more distant areas no service at all. During this period, we had
to reduce power to 15% to prevent further damage. On January 22, the
newly-fixed 20-year-old antenna was returned to service and we were able to
return KCSC to full power.
Our staff remained busy during this period answering your many questions and we
are all thankful for your supportive words once you were reassured we were not
"going away" as many of you feared.
It is important for you to know that we now face the cost of replacing the old
antenna with a new one. Our engineer, has made inquiries and the estimated cost
to buy a new antenna, rework the old antenna into a backup, add new feed line
and hangers, and call in a tower crew will be approximately $96,190.00. KCSC
currently has dual transmitters, dual air conditioners, a new standby
generator, and with completion of this project will have a dual antenna system
which will put us in good shape.
Thankfully, a local foundation has offered to help us with about half of the
project. It is our hope that during our upcoming spring fund drive scheduled
for March 24 through March 31 many of you will step up to help. You can do that
by becoming a new member, by adding a little extra in your spring donation, or
if you are a fall member you might consider making two contributions this year.
As always, we thank our many listeners for your generous interest and support.
Yours in music, Bradford Ferguson`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 7570, Feb 16 at 0638, on WRMI, Brother Scare is musing
on how he doesn`t have ironclad contracts with stations, so ``when we cannot
pay, we do not go`` on such as WRMI, WHRI, WWCR, WWRB. So there`s always hope
that a new month will see reduxions in total hours; preferably on WWCR, WHRI
