** CHAD [non]. 5960, April 14 at 0459, carrier at S9-S8, soon African music,
and announcement in *French*, which I can`t copy fully, including, ``Vous ?tes
? l`ecoute de --- internationale``, ``six heures, samedi quatorze avril``,
fr?quences and program summary for the hour to follow; 0503 hilife music.
Since it starts in French rather than English, I assume this is the one
originating from Ndjamena rather than Maiduguri, whether it is really appelling
itself Ndarason rather than Dandal Kura yet. This hour only is now registered
as 250 kW, 65 degrees from ASCENSION, something BaBcoCkian in Kanuri (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 7330, April 14 at 0054, no signal from RHC, supposedly scheduled 21-04
UT. Nor anything on 7340, the other side of jamming and Radio Mart?, which is
supposedly scheduled mornings only, 11-15 UT. But at 0455, 7340 is on with RHC
Spanish, S9, undermodulated and USB necessary vs 7335 jamming and Mart?; off by
0505 recheck. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6100, April 14 at 0504, RHC English missing from this one, still
nothing at 0514. The rest of The Cuban Five are on: best on 5040 and 6060 as
usual; 6000 suptorted --- wiggle that patchcord; 6165 is S9 to S9+20/30 with
old news obviously pre-Drumpf strike on Syria (if there is any ``breaking
news`` after 0100 UT, RHC won`t get around to it until tomorrow; or maybe not
even after 1900 UT when the English hour airs first, to be repeated seven
times). Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13700, April 14 at 1457, RHC is on but no spurs today, tsk2 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 9490, April 14 at 0059, only jamming heard past 0100 as
jamming builds up, but soon JBA carrier detectable amid from Radio Rep?blica.
HFCC A-18 claims RMI has some Spanish broadcast, 150 kW, 285 degrees from
Issoudun, FRANCE at 0200-0300 & 0300-0400; also days 1 & 7 only at 0400-0500.
And duplicate registrations on 7350, where nothing is heard, after CRI English
via Kashgar until <0100.
WRTH 2018 pp 512-513 shows two websites:
http://www.directorio.org
which linx in turn to this for the broadcasts in particular:
http://directorio.wildapricot.org/radiorepublica
Wild Apricot? What`s that about? It shows:
``CUBA: Onda Corta 9490 kHz
lunes a viernes 9pm-11pm
sabados y domingos 9pm-12am``
i.e. EST/EDT, so during Yanqui-mandated DST, it`s one UT hour earlier than
registered, starting at 0100 UT! And the weekend extension in UT days should be
in HFCC as 1 & 2, not 7 & 1. ABOUT:
``Radio Rep?blica is an International radio station run by the Cuban Democratic
Directorate "Directorio" transmitting uncensored news and information to the
Cuban people. Radio Republica serves as a voice for Cuba's Resistance Movement
throughout the island. In addition to providing "real" news to the Cuban
people, Radio Republica is a sought after refuge for Cuban activists seeking to
record acts of repression in progress. Radio Republica serves as a vehicle to
document and monitor the whereabouts and physical integrity of activists
suffering pursecution [sic] for their pro-democarcy [sic] activity. Radio
Republica also serves to give voice to, and help coordinate the grass roots
movement for freedom and justice throughout municipalities and communities in
the island. >Mas [sic, from August 2017:]

tambi?n le brinda una tribuna y contribuye a la coordinaci?n del movimiento
popular por la libertad y la justicia en los municipios y las comunidades de la
Isla >More [sic, link to same Spanish story]``
It`s always seemed strange to me that RR, which originally broadcast via WRMI
when it was 9955 only, altho brokered by RMI, keeps using France now that
multiple much closer 100 kW Okeechobee transmitters are available, which ought
to put a stronger signal into Cuba vs the jamming. From over here, the 9490
signal from France varies greatly in level and S/N ratio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6905-AM, April 14 at 0009, JBA carrier; 0052 electronic music
S9+10 vs storm noise east of here, past 0107, with long pauses of dead air.
These logs say it was Cool AM Radio:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** UGANDA [non]. 15239.935, April 14 at 1454, S2-S3 African music, i.e. Radio
Munansi via WWRB. If it`s anything like last Saturday, could be continuous
music for hours before getting down to business (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1925 monitoring: not confirmed, Friday April 13 at
2330 on WBCQ, no signal again from 9330v-CUSB, altho it was detected poorly ~23
hours earlier. Next:

Full WOR sked on all outlets, podcast access:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5950, April 14 at 0458, WRMI `Oldies` channel is S8-S5 while there
are no signals from // 9395 & 9455; 5950 for at least the third night now, and
still unshown on the skedgrid for WRMI-14, off the air from 0200 to 1100, so
now may be filling all those hours? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9330, April 14 at 1500 and 2330 chex, no signal detectable from this
WBCQ. Wonder what happened to main transmitter, which was doing so well last
week? Larry Will reported to the WOR iog:
``WBCQ 9330 noted Friday April 13, 2018, 1800-1815 UT after seemingly off for
several days. Talk by some doomsday/prepper nut for several minutes, and then
Brother Scare with commentary. Fair to good signal on the PL-880 despite
overall noisy conditions. The transmission appears to be in AM mode; new
exciter? (Larry Will, Mount Airy, MD)``
Evidently nothing about 9330 on `Allan Weiner Worldwide``; John Carver`s
reportage of AWWW this week, UT Sat Apr 14:
``Listening on 7490 this evening as the signal is greater than 20 over. Theme
song started at 0001 after some fill music. Over the theme Allan stated that
there would be a real mailbag this evening. Allan and Angela in studio 9 in
FLA. Allan commented on Angela's tan and said she looked like a pretzel.
Opening talk about how AM and SW are very similar except for channel spacing,
frequency range and antennas. Then talked about antennas and stated that 5130
was back on the thousand foot rhombic. Talked very briefly about the rotating
curtain antenna that would be used on the new super station. This mutated into
a talk about radio waves which are light waves and then talked about all the
different waves until he got to cosmic waves.
Reading of actual QSL letters began at 0031. Reading of emails began at 0049.
Allan dodged two questions about who was behind the new super station and
talked about the power consumption of the new transmitter and said that the
electric service at the station was being upgraded. He mentioned some numbers
for electrical consumption which I didn't catch but I know the last number
mentioned was over a million watts.
Program was off the air at 0100. No phone calls or politics this evening. John,
Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, 9930, 9475, 5830, 5085, April 14 at 1459, WTWW is missing from
all possible frequencies; natch, including the spurs (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1130, April 13 at 2119 UT check, KLEY Wellington KS back to normal
for now, presumably the station with unbroken carrier talking instead of
musicking on right bearing vs heavy storm noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
