** ANGUILLA. 6090, Sept 6 at 0552, Caribbean Beacon is off, as you would expect
with huge Hurricane Irma hitting the island. Has Dead Doctor Gene finally met
his match in an even bigger blowhard?? Richard Langley noted that the night
frequency never came up after day frequency 11775 closed a few minutes after
2200 Sept 5.
11775, also CB absent, Sept 6 at 1241 check, uncovering a very weak carrier
presumably listed AIR Tibetan/Nepali via GOA, or jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** ASCENSION. 5960, Sept 6 at 0555, African language with hum, i.e. Dandal Kura
scheduled during this hour to Nigeria. Other ASC frequency, 6005 with BBCWS in
English, is hum-free, so apparently moved it to 5960 or swapped transmitters
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 11985, Sept 6 at 1237, soft jazz with piano and bass, hit
by ChiCom echo jamming with flutter. HFCC blinders show nothing at all on 11985
at this hour, but Aoki reveals it`s RTI in Chinese from 100 kW Tamsui
transmitter, 352 degrees this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INTERNATIONAL WATERS [non]. 7268-LSB, Sept 6 at 0550, and several earlier
random chex, nothing happening on the Hurricane Watch Net night frequency.
Finally at 0605, VG signal from WF4H, calling for check-ins, with call-signs
only, but no replies heard. Then he calls some specific stations, again without
answers, such as KF4BY. Says this is a ``directed net``. Inviting any station
with weather data for relay to National Hurricane Center. 0613 calls CM8GR, no
answer. ARRL/FCC lookup for WF4H shows: Greenberg, Dwight A, WF4H, 5320
Shadwell Ave, Cocoa, FL 32926.
You might think the HWN frequencies would really be hopping now, but most of
the time there is nothing.
14325-USB, Sept 6 at 1229, very poor signal from unID HWN station with NHC
conditions as of 12z: 185 mph across Anguilla, 918 millibars == 27.11 Hg
inches. 20m is mostly dead during near-blackout.
Say, hams really need a voice band halfway between 40 and 20 meters. The newish
30m band above 10100 is non-phone only. Give them another 200 kHz for that!
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1894 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday Sept 6 at 1030 on
WRMI 5850, VG S9+30/10; but JBA carrier on // 9455. Not confirmed Wed Sept 6 at
1315 on WRMI 9955, which is a JBA carrier during blackout. Next:

** U S A. 9395, 9455, 7780, 7730, 7570, 5850, Sept 6 at 1248, no signals from
WRMI during severe geomagnetic storm, but some could also be off the air. 9955
is JBA carrier, 11580 algo probably FE station, 11825 Chinese ditto, 15770 VP
carrier. (Instead of blasting in, The Power Hour, poor S8 on 7490 from WWCR.)
At 1306 I do get JBA carriers on 9395 and 9455 from WRMI.
WWV reported at 1245:

WRMI PLANS FOR HURRICANE IRMA: WRMI have just written on Facebook:
Hurricane Irma: Thank you to all of our listeners who have inquired about our
hurricane plans. At the moment (early Wednesday local time), it appears that
the eye of Hurricane Irma will come right over or very close to Okeechobee by
Sunday or Monday. We will stay on the air as long as possible and as long as
it's safe. Our transmitter building is quite prepared to withstand most
hurricanes, and our antennas have survived many hurricanes in the past with
little damage.
However, electrical power generally goes out during or after most strong
hurricanes, and our generator will only power our lights, computers and air
conditioning. Unfortunately we don't have enough generator power to operate 14
x 100-kilowatt transmitters. So if the power goes out, we are off the air. We
may have enough power to maintain one frequency on the air even during a power
outage, and it looks like this will probably be 9455 kHz. At the moment, our
Internet is down, but we hope it will be back up soon, although it could go out
again later. We'll keep you informed as best we can. Thanks again for your
interest (via BDXC-UK yg 1438 UT Sept 6 via DXLD)
** U S A. 5935, Sept 6 at 0556, WWCR is very poor about S7, while 5890 is
inaudible, off? 4840 and 3215 remain very good. WWV report at 0600:
``Geophysical Alert Message
#
Solar-terrestrial indices for 05 September follow.
Solar flux 121 and estimated planetary A-index 12.
The estimated planetary K-index at 0600 UTC on 06 September was 2.
Space weather for the past 24 hours has been moderate.
Solar radiation storms reaching the S2 level occurred.
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 level occurred.
Space weather for the next 24 hours is predicted to be strong.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G3 level are likely.
Solar radiation storms reaching the S1 level are expected.
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 level are expected.``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11410-USB, Sept 6 at 1245, presumed Indonesian QSO pirates,
spirited talk but no singing, whistles, tones, talking over each other. Often
there are multiple channels heard in the 11.4-11.5 MHz range, but the only one
this time. 25m is dominated by E Asian signals, hardly anything from nearby.
RHC 11760 with heavy CCI from CRI English SE out of Kunming (Glenn Hauser, OK,
