** BANGLADESH. 15505, March 17 at 1358, finally! A JBA carrier from Bangladesh
Betar, a few days before equinox managing to propagate transpolarly. I have
frequently sought this all winter. Then I strain to hear any modulation: yes,
recognizable BB interval signal once at 1359:27.5, and JBA mis-timesignal I
think ending at 1359:48.5 --- so they are *still* off-time, out of whack. And
into Urdu.
I also frequently check for Sri Lanka`s mis-timesignal opening 11905 circa
0115, but still not making it at all (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 6070, March 17 at 0544, not even a carrier from CFRX, while it is
normally always there; must be off. K index only 2 and no storms as of 0600.
Whew, March 17 at 1327, very poor signal but recognizably CFRX in English. BTW,
in A-17 6070 will be hit by CCI from MWV Madagascar in Spanish at 0200-0300;
CFRX gets no protexion from Canadian authorities at HFCC. Vatican, Austria,
Germany will also continue on 6070 at other times, as well as not registered
North Korea; but not the imaginary Jayapura, Indonesia which continues in HFCC.
6070 also an option for JIC, i.e. Sea Breeze at 13-15 UT but I think they have
not used it yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 7850, March 17 at 0549, no signal from CHU, but maybe just not
propagating, as 7490 WBCQBS is uncharacteristically JBA.
7850-CUSB & 14670-CUSB, March 17 at 1404, both are in well.
3330-CUSB, CHU was still off early March 17. Attention Comoro Islands, please
reactivate your 3331 transmitter for a special DX test while this is possible.
FM scheduled from *0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910+, March 17 at 0546, Alcarav?n Radio is off now when it has
been reliable lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5040, March 17 at 0548, RHC is still on, but 5025 Rebelde is off;
contrarily, 5025 had been on earlier tonight circa 0200. You never know what`s
next with these.
17580, March 17 at 1417, RHC is S9+20 of dead air except for some hum; while
17730 is off and 17750 is a JBA carrier. Suggestion: since 17580 is on,
modulate at least it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 11560, March 17 at 1415, music and ``Salaam Aleikum`` at S3-S5. It`s
AIR going from Dari to Pashto, listed as 500 kW, 280 degrees from GOA, but
maybe moved elsewhere like Bengaluru (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. 5995, March 17 at 1323, RNZI still audible fairly on a Friday,
in Dateline Pacific item about TONGA ? possible closure or privatization of
state broadcaster TBC. Then I find the whole story:
http://www.radionz.co.nz/international/programmes/datelinepacific/audio/201836918/tonga-pm-threatens-state-broadcaster-with-closure
24 hours later, on Saturdays only, RNZI is scheduled to be back on 7355 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 88.1, March 17 circa 1345 UT, KGOU via KWOU Woodward with a report
about International Crystal in OKC going out of business; location is valuable
historic property on Film Row:

** U S A. 13565, March 17 at 1418, K6FRC CW beacon ID is JBA vs CODAR. What
about all the other beacons listed on the 13550-13570 band; are they really
ever active??
http://www.lwca.org/sitepage/part15/index.htm
Apparently yes, as all seem to have logs for 2016 or 2017. The only ones I ever
hear are GNK, MTI and K6FRC.
The only 13 MHz one on this long list (sort by frequency):
http://www.on5ex.be/clipboard_view_unreg_freq.php

** U S A. 15770, March 17 at 1403, no signal from WRMI. #3 transmitter is now
supposed to run 12-22 UT, nothing but BS except other programming for final
hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 700, March 17 at 1257 UT with WLW still in but nulled, Texas ads
including one in Sugarland, mentions an FM ID in passing, and ``Voice of
Texas``. Therefore it is not my closer one, KHSE in The Metroplex, which is
Spanish religion, but the farther one from Houston market, KSEV Tomball, 15/1
kW U4, with such a slogan in NRC AM Log. Day pattern has less of a null toward
us than KHSE. Can`t find any FM for it listed, not even mentioned on own
website, but clearly a far-right extremist outlet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 740, March 17 at 1258 UT, KTRH Houston with TX ads, I-45 mentions, is
making 72/min SAH with KRMG Tulsa = 1.2 Hz; even tho 50 kW, day and night
patterns are supposed to have deep nulls toward OK, so I again suspect they are
out of whack (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Anglos were to slogan that way? With nearby KOKP OK nulled as much as possible,
and no sign of KCKN Roswell now Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1260, March 17 at 1307 UT, ``Radio de la comunidad latina de Iowa``,
many ads mentioning Des Moines, 515 area codes, ``La Reina, y nada m?s``,
m?sica. 5 kW KDLF Boone IA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** UZBEKISTAN. 15755, March 17 at 1402, S Asian music, presumed TWR Tashkent at
131 degrees as in HFCC --- as I previously logged Feb 19, but STILL no listing
in EiBi or Aoki; wonder if they read my reports? As I researched previously,
seems to be replacement for 7505 scheduled in Hindi at this time. How about own
website of TWR India? Would you believe that they are still linking to 3.4
years out-of-date pdf sked?
http://radio882.com/schedule/TWR-I-Broadcast-Schedule-Oct2013.pdf
I was about to complain that it shows no frequencies, just meter bands! Another
sked version says I am not authorized to see it on google drive with my only
gmail ID!
http://twr.in/home/mass-media/radio/broadcast-schedule
``You need permission to access this published document``
Was this in the WRTH Feb pdf updater? NO! 7505 not audible now, but
inconclusive; or is it? Weak S6-S7 talk on 7600, listed as BBC Tashkent in
Hindi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4739.0, March 17 at 0213, open carrier showing up here again, S9
vs CODAR swishes peaking S9+10. Maybe idling RTTY transmitter (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5125.0, March 17 at 0212, big AM open carrier again here, S9+20;
and still at 0547 recheck. Slight propagational fading so not something local
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search March 17: finally I awaken
two minutes before sunrise here so check it out at 1237-1239:
774, 693 and 594 from NW, presumably Japan; and 702 from WSW, presumably
Australia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Hi all
Something has gone terribly wrong with the usually very clean signal from
ZBC on 11735 kHz. Just noted today at 1930 UTC but come to think of it I
might have noticed the same thing is passing yesterday. Really too bad.
Almost sounds like they are being jammed but I would doubt that.

Yes you are right.
Two program strings on TZA even 11735.0, and
another string visible nearby on 11734.966 kHz.
Heard a male announcer, but also a steady music played
DITTERING
every half second.
How is the political relations between Tanzania state and its neighbours
like Somalia, Sudan, Uganda, Burundi, in Central East Africa
where Swahili is a common spoken language?
S=7-8 dittering heard in Hungary and southern Italy remote units,
as well as powerhouse at 2045 UT in Doha Qatar S=9+5dB level,
16 kHz wideband signal, which is mostly used by CHN jamming,
or from Ethiopia against Eritrea in 7.1 MHz range.
Or is that a China mainland jammer - OUT OF TECHNICAL ORDER ?
comments please.

** ERITREA. 7176.009v, March 18 at 0246, 0255, seems constant so not a sporadic
ham, carrier here past 0330, and still at 0359 on the other radio. Probably
VOBME reactivated intruding on the 40m hamband. Checking now since Thorsten
Hallmann, Germany was hearing it on 7175 previous Euroevening. How about the
other VOBME?
7144.25, March 18 at 0329, JBA carrier, and on the other radio, 7144.26 JBA
carrier at 0357. Without the VOBME connexion and hearing it on two radios,
might have dismissed it as a birdie. 7120 Somaliland had a much stronger
carrier after 0330 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MADAGASCAR. 7390, March 18 at 0322, S9+20 signal with rock music looping as
if vamping, so did MWV lose programming and default to this? Apparently not, as
0325 La Voz Alegre ID with contact info, slight gringo accent and pronouncing
English words too well, except for the ``P O Boquis`` in Florida. Much stronger
than something on 7385, presumably attenuated WHRI as the ``skip is long``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6950.0-USB, UT Sat March 18 at 0214, strong pirate here, with
dense hard rock music, S9+10, which is much stronger than all three WBCQs, but
they are all BSing now anyway. Some segu?s but 0214 ID as WHYP, and anti-drug
bit, ``stay away from drugs`` and other phrases over and over, ``Super-bad``,
mixing with music, another ID as WHYP-FM. 0241 another WHYP ID inserted. 0244
sounds like George Zeller proclaiming that it`s the ``worst station on
shortwave --- so bad it was axually entertaining``. Clip from a speech, edited
so he repeats himself a few times, and off*. Many more logs of it here:

** U S A. 15770, March 17 at 2056, this WRMI is still AWOL, as it was circa
1400. With 14 transmitters, at least one is likely to be down at any given
time, either necessarily or for rotating preventive maintenance. OTOH, current
sked has lots of blank time rather than 24/7 on most of them.
9395, UT Sat Mar 18 at 0154, gospel huxter other than Bob Biermann or Brother
HyStairical, as seems to be regular during this hour, but nothing on the
website to ID it, so I force myself to listen a while, and to compare it to
9955 which is free of jamming now. Sounds like the same guy, but NOT //, not
even when I switch back and forth twice a minute in case they are // but out of
synch playbacks.
At first, 9955 sounds anti-Catholic, while 9395 is anti-government. I listen
more to 9395: into soul music, ``Keep Your Eyes on the Prize`` as he talks
along with it, phone 856-775-1176 definitely copied, and mentions ``Key of
David``; also Yahweh, maybe Messianic black cult? While this music is on, no
music on 9955. At 0159.5 both cut to ``WNYW`` style WRMI canned ID, and
continue their separate ways from 0200, 9395 with Bob Biermann IDs and Oldies
music, 9955 into Spanish Radio Praga. Let`s look up what`s on 9955 until 0200
UT Sat: from 0130 `Evangelical Holiness`. Not explained on the WRMI Programming
page. Searching on that plus WRMI leads Google ONLY to 3 versions of my own
previous logs of it this year!
Top hit on the phone number is tech support at ClassicRedneckRadio.com which is
promising, since it`s about radio, but don`t see anything about SWBC. Maybe
it`s merely a sponsor on whatever program this is (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7505vv, UT Sat March 18 I am checking for the Chinese hour on WRNO,
which Ron Howard reported was really airing at 0200. Not tonight: S9 on the
meter, but poor signal and very undermodulated, yet I eventually conclude it
has stayed in English at 0206, 0220 and 0250. By 0303 has switched to YL voice
and I think she is the Chinese one, still very hard to hear. 0359 very poor at
ending, WRNO ID in English. Meanwhile, I have been measuring the constantly
varying frequency: at 0220, 7505.5; 0250, 7504.96; 0306, 7504.91; 0330,
7505.07; 0359, 7505.09.
There has also been a weaker carrier on the lo side and not varying much, circa
7504.20. Possibly local origin altho I am getting it on two radios. Makes a het
with WRNO unless USB tuning (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
