** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sun Aug 16 at 0146 check, noting but a JBA carrier from The ``Mighty`` KBC, 125 kW via GERMANY, as propagation is very degraded: nothing much but US and Cuban signals on 7 and higher bands. WWV reported before and after this:
``Solar-terrestrial indices for 15 August follow. Solar flux 89 and estimated planetary A-index 44. The estimated planetary K-index at 0000 UTC on 16 August was 5. The estimated planetary K-index at 0300 UTC on 16 August was 5. Space weather for the past 24 hours has been strong. Geomagnetic storms reaching the G3 level occurred. Space weather for the next 24 hours is predicted to be minor. Geomagnetic storms reaching the G1 level are expected`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6945-USB, Aug 16 at 0136, pirate music, 0140 DJ refers to HF Underground to post your feelings about this. Says he`s running a whole new computer after the last one blew up. Exaggerated accent, and finally Radio Free What-Ever ID before back to music, at S9+20 level. No RTTY QRM above or below at the moment (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6962-AM, Aug 16 at 0137, pirate music on much weaker S5 signal than RFWE on 6945-U. 0144 announcement but too much noise level; 0145 Beatles` ``I Wanna Hold Your Hand`` for which I can`t help but imagine an even more adult desire. Six others further east of here also heard this without IDing it: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,22991.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** OKLAHOMA. 92.1, Aug 15 at 1928 UT, KAMG-LP local in Enid is always in mono Spanish, now frenzied ME-sounding music with lots of drumming, but lyrix include ``tu gloria, ascienda``, so it`s just Christian, evidently with Moorish influence. I think it`s a satellator, plugged into some non-local service, altho like so many LPFMs it initiated at a local church (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 9565, Aug 16 at 1305, open carrier, tone test and off, typical morning behaviour of Greenville`s day-shift check for usage later in the day, i.e. Radio Martà from 2000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1786 monitoring: confirmed on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, UT Sunday Aug 16 at 0327, poor signal but readable, at a point which indicated it must have started about 0318 this week.

Also one of those, not sure which, was already non-SFAW for ham show *before 1800. 9475 used to break away from SFAW Sats starting at 1800. Daytime frequency of #2, 9930 is seldom on the air now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) This report dispatched at 1532 UT August 16 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
