At my location in NW England there is no trace of any signal on 9470 at 1545 UT
while 17540 is only peaking to about S5 in local noise.
The best signal is, of course, via LW 252 as usual.

** AUSTRALIA. 9580, Sept 6 at 1305, RA`s `Sunday Nights` from ABC Local Radio,
interviewing author Tariq Ali, a non-believing but cultural Moslem for most of
this hour; couldn`t pull away from it for NPR Weekend Edition Sunday instead. I
assume the podcast will soon be available via
http://www.abc.net.au/sundaynights/
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 4885.0, Sept 6 at 0113, Brazuguese yelling; 0143 still excited,
mentions R. Clube do Par? in passing; ``goooooal`` so sounds like a futebol
game, but a bit late for that? Also some music, so presumably not a real live
game. S8 level fluxuating. John Cooper, PA, says same station signed off the
night before at 0400. Still one must be alert for the other ZY on 4885, R. Dif
Acreana, which as of the WRTH 2015 was shown closing at 0400 with Par? 24
hours, but not any more (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NETHERLANDS [non]. 7375, UT Sunday Sept 6 at 0120, The Mighty KBC is back on
its Sept-May frequency, ex-9925, via GERMANY; only S8 and hardly a bigsig, but
at least it`s propagating (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 9690- // 7255-, Sept 6 at 0601 check, VON is on both tonight with
the Hausa hour; 9690 better (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6925.15-AM, Sept 6 at 0106, S6 carrier, but hardly any
modulation audible; presumed Liquid Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Sept 6 at 0104, pirate music at S9+25, good; 0111
ID as Wolverine Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Time on this one was 1159 UT, not 1259; corrected:
780, Sept 5 at 1159 UT, open carrier until KSPI Stillwater sign-on, doesn`t
mention power is only 250 watts; still with some LAH from XE-land. So this
daytimer signs on at 7 am local at least on Saturday; official Stillwater Sept
sunrise is { } --- to be filled in once the FCC site be back in business Sept
8, as other AM/FM logs until then also may be subject to modification (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 5980, Sept 6 at 0103, again no signal from R. Chaski. Could be timer
reset closer to 0100* but recently not heard long before 0100 either (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SRI LANKA. 11905, Sept 6 at *0114:12.5 carrier on, 0114:46.5 musical pr?lude
starts, 0115:19.5 mis-timesignal ends like mis-clockwork, SLBC signing on. Very
poor signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1789 monitoring. Starting at 2330 UT Saturday Sept 5,
monitored the Challenger Radio, Italy frequencies from UTwente SDR,
Netherlands: switching around 1566, 1368, 846, and 567 kHz, no sign of WOR for
the next dekaminute, but some occasional Italian. Perhaps the 11-minute version
will appear again Sunday at 2104 on at least some of them.
WOR 1789 via WA0RCR, 1860-AM, started at 0319:36 UT Sunday Sept 6, Vern with
his own opening replacing most of the too-musical WOR theme. Next on SW:
Sun 2300 WRMI 11580 to NE
Mon 0300v WBCQ 5110v Area 51 to WSW [lately John Lightning has been running
way over; but this week he`s off, Jean Shepherd leadinstead]
Mon 0330 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Tue 1100 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 0630 HLR 7265-CUSB to SW
Wed 1315 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 1430 HLR 7265-CUSB to SW
Wed 2100 WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Full WOR schedule:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5850, Sept 6 as I am dozing off around 0555, TruNews via WRMI is
talking about major expansion of this apocalyptic ministry, such as satellite
radio, hourly ``news``casts for Christian stations, own FM station on 105.3 in
Vero Beach (Rick doesn`t acknowledge it`s only a 100-watt, WVRO-LP). TruNews is
just as wacky as Brother Scare but superficially sounds more reasonable, less
off-putting (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 760, Sept 5 at 1926 UT, 6 kW KCCV Overland Park KS, usual daytime
groundwave occupant of this frequency, also has a SAH from an understation at
the rate of 216 beats per minute = 3.6 Hz; on the NRD-545 and the ALA-330S
magnetic loop antenna favoring east-west. KCCV`s pattern is a figure-8 with one
lobe toward Enid. The nearest other 760 is 10 kW KMTL Sherwood, mid-Arkansas,
but ground conductivity is poor over that path. WJR Detroit remnant skywave?
Other 760s, 50 kW each in Denver and San Antonio, both supposedly have nulls
toward us. See also 1210 unID log. The extensive MW Offsets list
http://www.myradiobase.de/mediumwave/mwoffset.txt
again proves no help, as KCCV is not included; WJR was 3.7 Hz low in 2014; KKZN
CO, 3.0 Hz low in 2013. Neither DXLD nor Hauser are in the long list of
credits/sources (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1210, Sept 5 at 1922 UT, KGYN Guymon OK is always audible at the
edge of its daytime groundwave, but on the ALA-330S and NRD-545 I am also
getting an understation making a SAH of 2.4 Hz, and traces of otheraudio; also
the SAH level fades up and down a bit. There are no other 1210s anywhere near
here, so less than an hour after local mean noon at 1832 UT (and it`s still
summer with relatively high sun), is this some residual skywave, or groundwave?
The nearest 1210s are in WY, SD, IL, TN, LA. Only 10 kW KHAT Laramie WY and 10
kW WLRO Denham Springs LA are ND. I`d lean toward Laramie; 650 KGAB WY has made
it here in the daytime. FWIW, MW Offsets list showed KGYN 0.6 Hz high in 2007y,
while KHAT was 2 Hz hi in the same year; see also unID 760 log (Glenn Hauser,
Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Pioneer radio station turns 80
The electronic media age reached Hibbing on Sept. 5, 1935, when radio station
WMFG signed on the air.Minnesota had only nine other radio stations at that
time, with six of them broadcasting from the Twin Cities.The Village of Hibbing
had a permanent radio station before the cities of Rochester, Saint Cloud and
Mankato, making it a point of pride for the community.WMFG is the 10th oldest
continuously licensed radio station in Minnesota.The Head of the Lakes
Broadcasting Company, owners and operators of WEBC Duluth, started WMFG and
contributed Chief Engineer Charlie Persons, Station Manager Harry Hyatt and
announcers Jimmy Peyton and Kenneth Fagerlin.A 165-foot tower was erected on
the roof of the Androy Hotel. The WMFG studios were in the Androy Hotel?s
basement for its first 20 years of broadcasting. A special permanent broadcast
quality telephone line linked the studio to the Hibbing High School (HHS)
Auditorium, gymnasium and football field ? an unusual luxury for a 100 wa
tt station.On the evening of Sept. 5, 1935, the inaugural broadcast ceremony
was held in a packed HHS Auditorium. Mayor Arthur Timmerman opened the program
with Hibbing School Board Chair W.A. McFarland.WCCO contributed 15 minutes of
programming including Gov. Floyd B. Olson welcoming the station to the air. The
program was dominated by local talent such as the Rudd Family, the Hibbing City
Band, the Eveleth City Band and the 50-piece Iron Range Symphony Orchestra led
by conductor Luigi Lombardi.WMFG and WEBC also needed a Class A telephone line
to link the stations for the Arrowhead Network. Northwestern Bell would only
agree to give them a Class C line or ?voice only? line. The phone company line
was so poor that a WMFG Announcer Morrie Canlin would listen to football games
from WEBC over the phone and repeat the play-by-play into a WMFG microphone.The
stations were forced to use Postal Telegraph lines. To compensate for the
telegraph line low fidelity, Chief Engineer Char
lie Persons built a series of amplifiers along the line. The amplifiers caused
programming to bleed into telephone calls causing customers of Northwestern
Bell to complain. Bell and Arrowhead came to an agreement where the stations
could use their Class A phone lines and the network would stop using the
amplifiers.???WMFG?s original power was 100 watts ? about enough to cover the
Iron Range ? but not enough power to become a national network affiliate. Local
programming dominated the 7:45 a.m. to 9 p.m. schedule, including The Howard
Street Reporter, Home on the Range, Range Revels, The Sequin Sisters, the WMFG
Stock Company and Piano by Request.One of the most well remembered shows was
The Children?s Hour, which featured local range children performing live on the
air. One pair of singing children was Louie & Lulu, the Kosovich Twins. Their
rendition of ?Piccolo Pete? gained Louie the life-long nickname ?Piccolo.?One
early WMFG show gained national attention. It was The Med
icine Show sponsored by ?Shapiro?s Drug & Cut-Rate Liquor? store. The 15
minute show mimicked an old-time medicine show travelling across the Iron Range
with a ?sheriff? breaking it up at the end of each program.?Broadcasting?
magazine reported that Shapiro?s revenue nearly doubled in June and July 1936.
The publication also noted that WMFG served ?the melting pot of nationalities?
on the Iron Range with programs in Serbo-Croatian, Polish, Swedish, Italian and
a daily news broadcast in Finnish.WMFG broadcast live programming most of the
day, but some network programming was heard on WMFG by recording. Sponsors of
programs sent 16-inch diameter records (called ?electrical transcriptions?) out
to radio stations in their business markets that lacked network-affiliated
stations. Thus WMFG was able to broadcast Wheaties? Jack Armstrong, the All
American Boy, Cheerios? The Lone Ranger and Pure Oil?s Captain Midnight and
Oxydol?s Ma Perkins.In September 1937, the FCC allowed WMFG t
o raise its power to 250 watts and WMFG joined CBS. CBS provided six hours of
programming to WMFG each day, including CBS?s legendary news coverage of the
outbreak of World War II featuring Edward R. Murrow, Eric Sevareid, Robert
Trout and William L. Shirer.On Sunday, Oct. 30, 1938, WMFG broadcast one of the
most famous radio programs of all time, ?The War of the Worlds?, presented by
Orson Welles on the Mercury Theater. Welles used simulated newscasts to tell
the story of an invasion from Mars ? newscasts so realistic that thousands from
coast-to-coast believed it was really happening.CBS?s WCCO Minneapolis also
provided WMFG with a regional 10 p.m. newscast with Cedric Adams.???On Jan. 1,
1942, WMFG dropped CBS and joined NBC and began to present some of Golden Age
Radio?s most famous programs: Jack Benny, Bob Hope, Fibber McGee and Molly,
Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy and Red Skelton. Amos ?n? Andy were heard on
WMFG via CBS from 1939 to 1941 and NBC from 1943 to 1948
.NBC strictly limited times for local programs and recordings. During this
time, WMFG provided local programming Early Risers, Sunrise Serenade, News of
Hibbing and Arrowhead Calling.The 10 p.m. news alternated between News-Tribune
Time, Daily Tribune Time and simply The Ten O?clock News, depending on who was
sponsoring the newscast.WMFG from 1942 through 1955 resembled today?s
television stations, with long blocks of national programs during prime-time
periods and local programs in the morning, noon and late evening. Big Bands
filled the time between the 10 p.m. news and sign-off at 11 p.m. each
night.???In 1958, WMFG was purchased by Harold Parise and Frank Befera. NBC was
dropped in 1960 in favor of locally-produced music programs where disc jockeys
prevailed.WMFG became one of the first members of Minnesota Twins Radio Network
in 1961. Les Rutstein was commercial manager and station manager through much
of the 1960s.WMFG joined ABC?s American Information Radio Network in
1970, which included Paul Harvey News. WMFG?s first talk show, It?s Your
Dime, gained popularity in the 1970s along with its host, Dick Nordvold.
Nordvold was also the voice of Hibbing High School sports broadcasts in the
?70s and ?80s, and later served as mayor of Hibbing.WMFG is Minnesota?s 10th
oldest continuously licensed radio station and currently features an adult
standards format, playing hits from the 1950s through the 1970s.WMFG-FM began
in 1961 and after a period of simultaneous broadcasting WMFG-AM programming,
eventually split off to play a more modern sound in the 1970s.Currently WMFG-FM
features classic hits radio, playing rock classics from the ?60s to the ?80s.
Both stations are owned by Midwest Communications.Todd Kosovich is a Hibbing
native and 1979 Hibbing High School graduate. The senior prosecutor for the
Morrison County Attorney?s Office in Little Falls, Minn., he regularly lectures
on radio history and has appeared as a guest on many radio stations
around Minnesota. Kosovich is currently writing a book on the history of
Minnesota Radio Stations 1912-1962. Todd?s father, Louis, and aunt, Louise,
were featured on WMFG in the 1930s as Louie & Lulu, the Kosovich Twins.
