** BRAZIL. 4875.254, Jan 3 at 0230, music into Brazuguese talk, from R.
Roraima, off-frequency and varying slightly, S8-S5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Jan 1 at 2132, pirate with rock, S8-S9 vs local
HNL, soon ID as Radio Free What-ever, only found this after tip about something
on 6925, unfound; says he is pro-Yaesu, picks on Icoms; acknowledges posters on
HFU. ``FCC knows where I am, locked & loaded``, 2135 music, doze, off at 2200*.
Many other logs:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,39609.0.html
I need to tune for winterpirates even earlier in afternoon, but I wonder why
none of them ever seem to operate later in the evening after 01 or 02? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1000, Jan 2 at 0700 UT as I tune past KTOK OKC, ToH ID says they
are also on KXXY 96.1 HD2. Not shown in the NRC AM Log; in fact, seems it does
not get into such details as FM subchannel duplicates of AM stations, just main
channels, translators or not (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. RF 27, Jan 2 at 2140 UT, I notice that KFOR-TV OKC now has a new
subchannel, Justice, as 4.3. Logo is a J in a shield at lower-right. For a long
time the only extra was Antenna TV on 4.2. Yes, Justice already shows in
rabbitears.info for Market 50. If I wanted to get it on my Sanyo screen I would
have to rescan the whole thing, while the Zenith STB finds it right away simply
by tuning up from 4.2 on the way to 5.1 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Jan 1 at 2001 check, WWCR is still airing
Brother Scare, in fact as I tune in, synthetic voice announcement interrupts
that there are no AM/FM or SW broadcasts as of January 1. O, yeah? And that`s
not all.
9370, Jan 1 at 2205, WWRB still on with presumed TOM, as that`s all they ever
put on this frequency. Ditto 3185 night frequency, BS still has gall to ask for
``sacrifices`` of 1, 10 or 100 thousand dollar donations to help him stay on
the air. Spells out contact info as always for his ignorant psychophants.
Then cut to BS with a lead-in cue to next recording for ``Wednesday June 20 on
the count of three --- one, two three``, and onward. Well, June 20, 2017 was a
Tuesday, so which years were Weds? 2007, 2012 and 2018, but probably long
before 2007, out of his huge ego-archive. I can`t stand to listen to his
screaming, young or old for more than a few seconds, and IMHO, the man is and
was *insane* (and so were everyone who followed him). But, not *too* insane for
his current defense, let us hope.
3215 // 5890, Jan 2 at 0659, both WWCRs are still BSing too, almost // 3185
WWRB. Next check at 1453 Jan 2, 9980 WWCR BS and one second later on 9370 WWRB.
At 1904, still BS on 9370 WWRB and 9980 WWCR. And still on the third UT day of
perpetual? life, Jan 3 at 0238 on 3185.
Contrary to what some assumed, WRMI kept BS on the air till the end of 2017y,
but only in three one-hour blox, as I previously reported. But the latest sked
update as of January 1 has removed even those, altho I have not confirmed that
by monitoring (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1911, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1910 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday
January 2 at 0030 on WRMI, 7730, S9+20/30; but at same time on 9330v-CUSB, JBA
carrier. Missed check Tue 2030 but 1910 should have been on 11580 & 9455; Tue
at 2130 WOR 1910 confirmed on 9455, but poor with local noise. Not confirmed UT
Wed Jan 3 at 0030 on WBCQ 9330v-CUSB, inaudible, contrary to the middle of the
night.

WORLD OF RADIO 1911 was not ready in time for the last two Tuesday or the first

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 11580, Jan 2 at 2105, WRMI with RAE in German as usual; and what
else? 7780 is off, but QRX to replace 11580 from Jan 8; instead of Power Hour,
which is only on 9395; while 9455 is Wavescan: the skedgrid has finally
replaced defunct `15770`` for this hour block.
Not confirmed by monitoring yet, but also now shows additional weekday prepeats
of RAE to Europe: 1900 German and 2000 Italian on 9395, in addition to 2100
German & 2200 Italian on 11580. It also shows 0800 Japanese & 0900 Chinese on
9455 only, no more 5850, and no more 0600 Japanese & 0700 English, which have
already been gone for a few weeks (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1911, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9330.130v-CUSB, Jan 2 at 0710, WBCQ with C&W music at S7-S9, from
Kix-FM (sp?) = WBCQ-FM. Still on air all night, and very strangely, around this
time it`s propagating well, while around 0030 with WOR it is JBA or NAAL. Maybe
there are huge experimental variations in power, rather than propagation?
Around this hour it`s bound to collide head-on with Cuban numbers station, but
not this time since it is Tuesday. Bulgaria DX Blog shows schedule for that:
``xx55-xx20 broadcasts 25 minutes; xx20-xx25 open carrier/dead air;
xx25-xx50 broadcasts 25 minutes; xx50-xx55 change of frequencies.
0655-0750 9330 secret tx probably BEJ 50 kW Spanish Sun/Mon/Wed/Fri``
9330.15-CUSB seems steady spot during the day on Jan 2, at 1454 only S1-S5 with
music, 1500 WBCQ-FM ID and Townhall news, not delayed. Even weaker at 1903, not
music, could be Blalock? Or just news on hour. At 2110, jazzy music (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17774.888, Jan 2 at 1905, KVOH still on its favorite offset, S9+10/20
in Spanish, undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, Jan 2 at 1904 and misc. other daytime chex, no signal from
WTWW-3, so the Xmasmx fest is long over, and transmitter apparently dark again
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ZANZIBAR. 6015, Jan 3 at 0338, YL in Swahili from ZBC, S7 to S9+10 and no
CCI audible here from East Turkistan which is sked until 0345 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6056-6065 approx., Jan 3 at 1152, huge distorted spurblob in Spanish
with hum until 1156*. Bothers 6055 Japan, but 6070 Canada barely escapes.
Nothing to compare it to, but don`t see how it could be anything but RHC
warming up the ``6060`` transmitter, which nominally runs until 0800*, before
changing it to another frequency, as in B-17 *no* 6 MHz channels are scheduled
from *1200, just 9, 11, 13 and 17 MHz. Duh, in winter lower frequencies early
in morning would be more appropriate than in summer, Prop 101. Something`s
always wrong at RHC. I refer to DXLD 17-45 where various versions of the
current RHC schedule appeared (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11840, Jan 3 at 1435, RHC is S9+20/30 but suptorted modulation, while
// 11760 & 11950 are not. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOLOMON ISLANDS [and non]. 9545, Jan 3 at 1201, JBA signal with talk, can it
be SIBC day frequency on very late? But there is a weaker carrier on 5020,
which is surely SIBC, but unreadable even if there weren`t Rebelde splash from
5025.
O yes, as Ron Howard was reporting a month ago, and confirmed in Aoki/NDXC,
since Dec 1, R. Taiwan International took the 12-13 hour on 9545, and it *must*
be jammed by the Chicom, so I could be hearing either one. 1205 a bit of music,
more talk.
5020 carrier remains on, still audible at 1247, when 9545 has risen to S5-S7 in
Chinese. Press reports via DXLD say that SIBC has had to turn off its MW 1017
transmitter due to dispute with power company and government over what`s an
essential service, and rely only on SW with diesel generator for nationwide
coverage! It`s not been unusual for 5020 to run beyond nominal 1200*, probably
now more so than ever (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Jan 3 at 1513, Overcomer is still on WWCR
blasting in, a caller with no hope saying he expects to kill himself, but
meanwhile listens to BS; just what we need to hear. And also on 9370 WWRB a
second or two later. Are these stations still getting paid for BS airtime after
all, or just can`t bear the thought of dispensing with him? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4045-USB, Jan 3 at 1220, WCY, Lakeland FL, with informal marine
weather advice about the Belize/Mexico border area; nice to hear a real human
being doing this live with a contact. S9 signal, and answer from a much weaker
one. Informal ID is Bel Ami, then standing by for calls from ``any subscribing
vessels``. 1224 ``Whisky Charlie Yankee`` ID, to be back in 5 minutes with east
coast forecast (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13565, Jan 3 at 1438, K6FRC HIFER beacon is RST 525, easily readable
and no CODAR. Does that mean when there is CODAR it is propagating from
somewhere other than California? As usual there is hash circa 13561 from nearby
Part 15 medical devices and/or RF ID equipment. But then I hear another RF next
to it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 13564, Jan 3 at 1441, after hearing K6FRC beacon about 13565, I
detect a much weaker one 1 kHz below, sending ID as RF and just barely
copiable. The LWCA HIFER list already has it:
``13564.330, RF, Unknown, EM96, CW (h2017/12)``
that grid would be in WV or VA; how do they know that much? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1911 monitoring: unfortunately awake at 1055
UT Wed Jan 3, I check 9455 and confirm this week`s first SW airing from 1030 on
WRMI, but it`s poor S8-S2 as the much better // frequency, 5850 has been
deleted, why? Just before local sunrise, the MUF is lowest and if one were
dropped it should have been the higher one. Deletion of next broadcast 1415 on
9955 also confirmed, replaced by gospel huxter in progress at instantaneous
check circa 1425. Next:
Wed 2200 WBCQ 7490v to WSW

** U S A [and non]. 9330.124v-CUSB, Wed Jan 3 at 0646, WBCQ rock music at
S9-S7. I`m attentive now, because as mentioned in last report, the HM01 Cuban
spy numbers station is on 9330 four nights a week around 0700. Yup, *0653, full
carrier 9330.002 on atop WBCQ, but can still hear it under, and of course,
being 122 Hz away, distorts the music pitch. At 0656, 5-digit number groups by
YL in Spanish start. She`s oblivious to the QRM from BCQ. At 0700 switches to
digital blaaps. The collision should last almost an hour. Let us hope that as a
result, Cuban agents in the USA do not get the wrong message and explode or
something.
9330.073, Jan 3 at 1146 check, WBCQ frequency now down to here at S5, stronger
than the WRMIs on 9 MHz which descended to JBA before sunrise. Better at 1424
with ``Red Rider`` trucker/CB song by Johnny Cash (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395 & 9455 & 9955, Jan 3 at 1209 check, the only WRMI frequencies
now scheduled on air at 12-13 are all JBA carriers! If any 5 or 7 MHz channels
were in use, they would be well audible if not very strong. I was wanting to
confirm that Brother MoleStair is really gone from 9395 as he was still on the
schedule thru December, but can`t tell what`s on it, nor 9455 & 9955, RAE
Portuguese?
Yet by 1244, MUF has soared, making 9395 audible with Oldies, the other two
indeed RAE Portuguese (on weekdays), all about S9+10. There is a lag in
ionospheric ionization buildup after local sunrise, but today in Okeechobee
city, LSR was 1213 UT (and LSS 2242) per

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9712-9724 approx., Jan 3 at 1211, extremely distorted S9
spurblob, talk definitely in Korean, centered about 9718. Strength and
frequency fluxuate with modulation level. This reminds me of the VOA Tinang,
Philippines 9800 transmitter which not long ago put spurs around here and
equally on hi side, but the trouble is, its Korean does not start until 1300,
still per Aoki/NDXC dated Jan 2; and HFCC, which has not been updated since 25
Dec, still on holiday. Now, what?
Well, KSDA Guam has Korean at this time on 9880, and there is a much weaker
signal there but does not seem //, altho I do not have a second receiver handy
to compare. Furthermore, KSDA is also scheduled now on 9800, in Chinesish, so
those two could plop a leapfrog on 9720.
9800, Jan 3 at 1426, now VOA is on, VG S9+10 in Korean and no spurs from it
today (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17774.9 approx., Jan 3 at 1512, KVOH peaks S9 but undermodulated and
unreadable. If another Californian with 1.8 milliwatts can be heard on 13565
(K6FRC), imagine how well KVOH could make it, if 4 MHz lower than its only
frequency; not that they care about serving Oclajoma, and then they would also
risk white noise into the 14 MHz hamband rather than the 18 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
