** BRAZIL. 4885.03, Feb 22 at 0704 check, R. Clube do Par? is gone again! After
big show last night (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11880, Sunday Feb 21 at 2132, RHC with smooth transition from French
to opening Esperanto, theme song and sign-on. La elsendoj estas: Sun 1600 on
11760; Sun 2230 on 17730; 0700 on 6000. I think they said 6000 instead of
correct 6100 as just reconfirmed, and the 0700 should be mentioned first as it
is the first, not last broadcast, on UT Sunday, not UT Monday. But the
Esperantists in the studio are also clueless that they have another outsending,
as I first noted last Sunday, 2130 on 11880 instead of Portuguese. This week I
also check 17730 at 2230 and reconfirm it still exists too (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GOA. 15175, Feb 22 at 1526, open carrier, dead air with flutter, S8
past 1531 when maybe it`s just barely modulated, still on past 1559. Only thing
listed in HFCC is AIR Panaji, 15-16 in Gujrati, 250 kW, 205 degrees; Aoki
refines it not really to start until 1515. WRTH 2016 shows same to East Africa,
and it looks like it`s time again to turn this over to some other site such as
Bengaluru, as on // 11620, 13640 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH AFRICA. 15420.064, Feb 22 at 1524, S7 station in English, presumed
BBCWS via UAE, a site known for its off-frequenciness ? but no! Registered as
Meyerton, 15-18, 100 kW at 20 degrees. You`d think BaBcoCk would insist on
better treatment. At least there is nothing on 15420.000 to het it except my
BFO. 1600 all I can copy is a BBC-style timesignal. Remember that WBCQ is still
registered for 15420 any time between 15 and 23 but hasn`t tried to use it for
a couple years (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** UGANDA [non]. Michael, We have been monitoring the very interesting Ugandan
Diaspora P10 Radio and wonder if this is being transmitted by MBR? If so, could
you tell us which site(s) on which frequencies at which times, and how much
longer this is expected to continue?
9685? 15405, 15680, 17840
Thanks, (Glenn Hauser, World of Radio, Feb 20, via DXLD)

So only the 1630 broadcast on 15405 is potentially continuing thru the end of
the B-15 season 26 March. It and 9685 via France, the others via Germany..
Checked at 1640 Feb 22, I have a JBA carrier on 15405 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1813 monitoring: 9329.96-CUSB, UT Monday Feb 22 at
0029, S9+10 signal so WBCQ is way up from JBA, but after a few words, back to
dead air, still so at 0032 when another bit of talk (not me) breaks thru, 0035
bit of music, still no WOR, and signal is fading down. Meanwhile WINB 9265 is
below S9. Maybe these anomalies have something to do with concentrating on
getting the new 3250 operational? Not audible now. 5107.9-CUSB also seems to be
on with dead air, but 7490- is nominal with `Le Show` by Harry Shearer. 0037 I
give up, intending to check again before 0100.
WOR 1813 confirmed UT Monday Feb 22 from 0401 on Area 51 webcast and presumably
on WBCQ 5109.7-CUSB, which was confirmed on with the Tassie show after 0430.
WOR also confirmed UT Monday Feb 22 after 0430 on WRMI 9955 with poor signal,
but a bihour later it was very good. Next:
Tue 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Tue 1200 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Wed 1415.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 2200 WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Thu 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Rep. of Yemen Radio, Feb 22 at 1430, usual very good
signal with Arabic music and talk. I should add that it normally has
considerable heavy fading, as if it`s coming a long way, and/or over a dynamic
path.
As a last resort, we sometimes check the ITU monitoring files, in case they can
shed any light, in frequency order. They are accessible from here:
http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-R/terrestrial/monitoring/Pages/Regular.aspx
And the latest one for early this year is a 65 page pdf:
http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-R/terrestrial/monitoring/RegMon/PDFfiles/349.PDF
But the only entries for 11860 are PBS Xizang (Tibet) at 0414, 0617 and
different date at 0430, 0635. ITU Monitoring is very hit-and-miss, in this
case, totally missed Yemenism.
HFCC doesn`t have Xizang on 11860, but Aoki shows it at 0300-0858 (except
Tuesday siesta -0600*) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
RE: "UNIDENTIFIED. 4888.0, Feb 18 at 1324, JBA carrier, between 4885 South
Korea and 4895 India, so I wonder what? Maybe Ron Howard will find it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Hi Glenn - Yes, heard a strong signal; seemed to be OM saying something, but
unable to turn it into a readable signal; tried USB, then LSB, then carrier,
but nothing worked to make it readable. Military or some type of utility? Ron
[Feb 18]"
Sorry Glenn, I was completely wrong. Turns out that it was India (AIR Lucknow)
off frequency from 4880. This from Hiroshi -
http://hiroshi.mediacat-blog.jp/e115009.html
with the correct explanation. I should have checked my own archive, as I heard
Lucknow on 4888 back in 2010 (Ron Howard, San Francisco at Ocean Beach, CA, Feb
21, dxldyg via DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11825, Feb 22 at 0645, JBA carrier. If WRMI is no longer 24h on
this frequency, what could it be? Nothing listed at this time. I couldn`t
remember which night frequency 11825 is paired with to check: 5765 at 355
degrees. I know I had heard it sometime that evening (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 4885.03, Feb 23 at 0214 check, R. Clube do Par? is still absent. I
do find a few JBA carriers on typical ZY 60m frequencies: 4875.1, 4865.0,
4861.9, 5035 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** IRAN. 6055, Feb 23 at 0230, JBA carrier. Surely not JOZ at midday in Japan;
HFCC shows it must be IRIB, 0230-0530 in Arabic, 500 kW, 178 degrees from
Kamalabad (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 2097-CW, Feb 23 at 0206 UT, beacon with a simple ID as A in Morse
code every 10 seconds. Weak but no doubt about the letter sent. Tnx to tip from
Rick Barton, Peoria AZ, who reported this Feb 16, as 2097.3, from Quartzsite
AZ. It`s among the HIFers on this list:
http://www.hfunderground.com/wiki/High_Frequency_Beacon
``(15 watts) - 'A' ident or malfunctions as series of dits - 15 watts max.,
24/7 [1] Last reported: June 30, 2012``
Quartzsite is on I-10, 20 miles from California, or 944 miles = 1519 km from
Enid, amounting to 63 miles per watt. Wonder what happened to some other such
beacons in the 3.4+ and 4.0+ MHz range, including a couple in OK I used to
hear? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1813 monitoring: confirmed UT Tue Feb 23 at 0030 on
WBCQ 9330.063-CUSB, following 0029 IS & ID loop, sign-on. It`s S9 now with good
modulation. Next:
Tue 1200 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Wed 1415.5 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Wed 2200 WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Thu 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9330.06, Feb 23 at 0159, WBCQ The Planet ID, and 0200 right into a
gospel huxter with no program introduxion, initially paranoid about ``airplanes
spraying stuff`` and ``aluminum corn``. WBCQ program guide already has this as
new `Word of Deliverance` with Pastor Jim Inman, 7 days a week at 02-03
(following `Full Gospel Hour`, also 7-daily at 01-02, with Terry (the blaster)
Blalock. (But the sked still shows WOR on 9330 only at 0300 UT Friday instead
of daily 0030 except Sat 2330 instead of 0030 UT Sunday.)
Meanwhile, at 0202 UT Feb 23, WBCQ 7489.9 is already Brother Scaring, but with
someone else paranoid about apocalypse-by-radiation, while nothing heard on
3250 or 5109.7 (in last report one mis-reference read 5107.9) (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Feb 22 at 2007, S9+30 open carrier/dead air except some hum
from WTWW-2, during `Dave Ramsey` show. While tuning on to a much more
interesting carrier on 9275, I leave a receiver on here eventually to discover
modulation cutting back on at 2015.4, JIP Ramsey just as he is going to a
commercial break. Isn`t anyone at station paying attention? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9275.04, Feb 22 at 2010, tune in S9 to S9+10 open carrier, cuts off
at 2010.5*, back on at *2016.4 and stays on until 2055.2*. Back on briefly at
*2056.3 but cuts off and on and off. Another brief appearance at *2114.9 and
quickly off, never to return past 2200.
Unfortunately up against a local device bubble jammer, probably a DTV cable
converter box, but the carrier is fading slightly, and normally nothing here,
so I instantly suspect it`s the long-dormant WMLK, Assemblies of Yahweh, Bethel
PA, which just registered this frequency with HFCC for possible B-15 usage
between 17 & 22 UT, also 04-09, both 125 kW at 53 degrees to Europe.
Before it went dark a decade plus ago, it was on 9265, but WINB subsequently
usurped that frequency for itself. WMLK was long registered on 9955 too, but
now has wisely ceded that to WRMI, 24 hours. WMLK got a 250 kW transmitter and
have been trying to get it and associated damaged antennas operational all this
time. Some of this is detailed on their website, http://wmlkradio.net
but which has not been updated since 2013y. WMLK was still in WRTH 2015, as
inactive, but they gave up and removed it from 2016!
I e-mailed this inquiry to everyone on the webpage contact list, except Elder
Jacob O Meyer (EJOM) himself, who died in 2010y* and thus was not expected to
reply.
``Dear WMLK: This afternoon Monday Feb 22, I have been hearing a good
unmodulated carrier on 9275.04 kHz. Since you have recently registered this new
frequency, I wonder if I am really hearing WMLK testing on the air at last
after these many years?? If so, is this the first day or when did testing start?
I tuned in at 2010 UT but it went off about 2010:30; and came back on at
2016:24 or so and has stayed on continuously as of 2052.
9275 reads about S9+10 with slight fading, while your neighbor in more ways
than one, WINB on 9265 is S9 fading down to only S5. This is on my R-75
receiver with 100 foot east-west longwire.
Please confirm whether or not this is WMLK testing, and update us on your plans
from now on? Perhaps you could modulate an ID at top of hour? Thanks, Glenn
Hauser, World of Radio``
This went out just before the cutoff at 2055z, as if they got my mail and
realized someone was listening? No, probably coincidental; and still no reply,
so I don`t yet have any confirmation this was really WMLK. Anyhow, this carrier
at S9 was stronger than neighbor 9265 WINB, only averaging S8 despite its 50(?)
kW being aimed this way. 9275: a frequency for further monitoring (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3195 & 3185, Feb 23 at 0209, WWRB absent from both frequencies; don`t
know if on 3215 earlier, but received this Update Feb 22 directly from Dave
Frantz, edited only for style:
``Greetings. We made a slight change in our flight sked. This has allowed me to
be here at WWRB early. We operate 7 days a week:
Saturday, Sunday, Monday: 6:55 PM to 12:00 AM: 3215 then 3195 after 9:00 PM
Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri: 6:55 PM to 9:00 PM: 3215 then 3185 after 9:00 PM
[these times must be EST = UT -5; WWRB is very near the CST boundary]
Right now shortwave broadcasting is a race to the bottom in airtime pricing. So
I can make $170.00 per hour flying with ZERO expense --- or crawl on my belly
for less than $50.00 per hour with plenty of expense!!!!
Since the demise of coal fire power plants, electric rates are now
skyrocketing. The demand charges alone eat up the power tube replacement
reserve.
It's worth noting my wife has a friend that is a licensed massage therapy
business: She charges $70.00 per hour for a massage. She is booked SOLID with
'church going' clients; she just brought in another therapist to help her with
the work load. Her basic cost for her business is: $250.00 per month office
rent, utilities included!!, 300 bucks, a ONE time expense for a massage table,
50 bucks for sheets / drapes. 20 bucks for a gallon of massage oil. Profits
GALORE --- PLUS she works when she wants to and no bull shit to put up with.
A Shortwave station: almost a million bucks for a 100 kW station, PLUS all the
operating expenses to make $50.00 per hour????? with all the other cost. Red
ink GALORE & PLENTY of bull shit to put up with. How can you pay an employee a
DECENT living wage with that little revenue? When Brother Stair quits the U.S.
shortwave, coupled with the EXPLOSIVE electric rates, THAT'S IT!`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9980, Feb 22 at 2012, WWCR-4 has crashed again; it was blasting in a
few minutes earlier with Brother Scare // much weaker 9955 WRMI (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1380, Feb 23 at 0237 UT, station with ranchera hymn is dominating
again, like the non-identifying KRCM Shenandoah TX, relaying KMIC 1590
Pasadena/Houston, as logged two nights ago, obviously still on 2.8 kW ND day
facility if not the 22 kW day direxional applied for (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Bandscanning UT Tue Feb 23, vs approaching storm noise level of
S9 to S9+20 at 3.3 MHz, somewhat less on higher frequencies, I encounter a few
SSB nets, probably MARS, usually one station somewhat more copiable than any
others:
3299-USB, 0210 Feb 23, W&M voices conversing, then into digital modes
4036-USB, 0212 Feb 23, contact between 5AK and 5MG, truncated calls, about
antennas
4041-USB, 0213 Feb 23, brief bit of another 2-way
6986.5-USB, 0217 Feb 23, ``shall we keep it open for army only?``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9300.0-USB, Feb 23 at 0225, weak 2-way in unknown language.
Really no idea, except it unseems tonal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
