** BOLIVIA [non]. 5935, Oct 25 at 1203, JBA talk, now that WWCR has closed, no
doubt TIBET at this hour. When did sun rise at Yura? 0946 UT per:
https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/@3900882
2+ hours would really be pushing it for 49mb propagation, especially contra a
100 kW from Lhasa. Even when it`s an all-dark path before 2358, Yura is JBA
carrier. Our SR/SS: 1248/2342 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 1610, Oct 25 at 1213 UT, ending informaciones in Spanish; I keep
hoping to hear something besides CHHA Toronto here, but followed by ad with 416
area-code which is as good as an ID. XEUACH is much desired, the only Mexican;
in Spanish there are also Peruvians and Argentines per the BDXC X-band list
copied into DXLD 17-41 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 9535, Oct 25 at 0632, oh2, RHC in English! This frequency is
supposed to close at 0500 after Spanish, not the first time this has happened;
weaker than // 6000, 6060, 6100, while 5040 is off and 6145/6165 is still gone,
so surely transmitters to spare.
Now it`s colliding with Qur`an from Algeria via FRANCE underneath, which is
supposed to be in clear on 9535, making SAH of about 3 Hz but not steady,
probably due to slight Doppler variations in propagation of one or both.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. Re: ``6935-USB, Oct 23 at 2205, pirate music with very
repetitive beat, almost disco; 2210 announcement over music, unseems ID. Still
going past 2220 at S7-S9. Earlier than I usually patrol the band, but good
thing I did since no pirates were logged in later hours by anyone this date,
than Cool AM [sic] on 6935-USB per:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,38173.0.html
Gone by my next check at 2353 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``
Chris Smolinski replies: ``99 44/100% sure this was Clever Name Radio. He is
usually in 6940 USB or 6935 USB when 6940 is occupied with a ute. He's been
fairly prolific recently, and often plays long stretches of music without IDs``
Altho subjected as Cool AM, one of the HFU posts said it was Cool AM being
*relayed* by Clever Name; including IDs for Cool AM. how confusing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1901 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday October 25 at
1315 on WRMI 9955, good signal, but pulse jamming, increasing as WRMI fades a
bit. Tnx a lot, Arnie! WOR remains readable if you put up with the noise. Next:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7730, Oct 25 at 0635, WRMI with frantic steel drum tune, not what RAE
would be playing in Japanese service scheduled this hour; 0640 segu? to
promotional song ``Cayman Holiday``. So WRMI has defaulted to World Music fill
in absence of Argentina. But RAE is still showing on other transmissions, such
as:
11580, Oct 25 at 1325, concluding RAE French ``? demain``, but really ``? la
prochaine demi-heure`` since alone among RAE languages, this one is half an
hour only, aired twice. It would make more sense for each pair to be one from
today, one from yesterday rather than an immediate repeat, and could be as I
have not compared them. Also 11580, Oct 25 at 1428 check still amid RAE Spanish
hour (which RAE continues to ignore, be unaware of). I`ve also recently run
across Italian after 22 on 11580 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5950, Wed Oct 25 at 1204, Ray Robinson is reading some historical
script, so got to be AWR Wavescan via WRMI --- strikes me as unsked time: yes,
DX PROGRAMS shows it at 1130 instead; and WRMI skedgrid does not even show 5950
on the air after 1200, but 1130 as Radio Praga from WRMI-14 at 181 degrees.
However, the program schedules below the frequency grid do show 5950 extended
1200-1230 with WS on Wed & Sun, also other DX programs, Frecuencia al D?a,
Antena DX and some other variety (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1560, Oct 25 at 1216 UT, promo for something at 4 pm on KLNG,
Christian stuff. I am here trying to dig some Vietnamese out of the QRM, as NRC
DX News reports that KGOW Bellaire TX has flipped to that from sports in
English! But no sign of it.
KLNG is plenty strong like the 10 kW ND daytimer it is from Council Bluffs IA.
Trouble is, official October sunrise per FCC AM Query is not until 1230 UT
(November: 1315 UT), after which for two Critical Hours it is supposedly
restricted to 2.1 kW. If anything at this hour, it should be running PSRA
(pre-sunrise authority) of only 1.32 watts --- yes, that is one-point-three-two
watts as in NRC AM Log! Clearly not worth bothering with, so why wait if you
are one of God`s stations above the Laws of Man? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

Although not at super great distances, I'll take a new log anywhere anyway
I can get it!
WATS 960 Sayre, PA and WHYL 960 Carlisle, PA at about 535pm eastern time
Wednesday October 25.
Heard 2 stations on 960khz swapping positions. Heard an ad for a financial
investment office that traced back to Carlisle, PA. That's WHYL 960.
I then heard an ad for a chiropractic business which traced back to
Waverly, NY. Thats WATS 960
Warren, PA (my location) to Sayre, PA is 136 miles.
Warren, PA to Carlisle, PA is 151 miles.
Here's an audio recording, the female voice is WHYL, the male voice is WATS
https://app.box.com/s/5lsnint9ohqcd4gwttkkm44232tnqdjx
Choice 102, WATS was the more dominant signal on 960
Here's a "Choice 102" liner back into a song:

4764.06 PERU R. Huanta 2000 First found at 2318 t/in w/end of ad
block, then into several beautiful camposino songs. Left the freq at
2327 to record the MW band, and when I returned at 2339, there was what
sounded like a sermon by M w/ment of ?madre de dios?. Not to bad of a
signal w/CODAR QRM and some weak thunderstorm static crashes. Thanks to
Don Moore on his travels for IDing this one. Here's a link to a Youtube
video of the reception: https://youtu.be/UKSv6vuGuaM (24 Oct.)
5824.9 CHILE R. Triunfal Evangelica (pres.) Noted the signal
here on a micro-DXpedition last week (20 Oct.) and thought it was just
an anomaly not thinking it could be R.T.E. Tuned in on this outing and
found what sounded like nonstop rel. mx from 2341 until it suddenly went
off w/out any announcements or fanfare at 2354:10. Maybe the extra wire
(820 feet) over last week helped improve the signal level. Here's a
link to a Youtube video of the reception: https://youtu.be/sKCqCvCWlDA
(24 Oct.)
6024.96 BOLIVIA Red Patria Nueva Great clear signal at 2341
w/usual evening nx pgm w/M presenter in apparent Amara and many long
actualities in SP w/ments of Bolivanos, trabajadores, ecomica, solidad,
Radio Santa Fe, camposinas, Octubre, Departmento Oro, etc. 2350 TC.
6030 jammer started up at 2352. (24 Oct.)
The above loggings were made on a micro-DXpedition using a Perseus SDR
with a 820 foot terminated BOG aimed at 181 degrees (western South
America).
