** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 6230-USB, May 20 at 1231, marine weather in English,
i.e. VMW Wiluna WA. There is also some other USB CCI, seems Spanish; and a
tone. This is also a Sound of Hope, Taiwan frequency, per EiBi, but no jammer
shown there. Aoki/NDXC does have it *jammed, with SOH on 6229.941, while not
covering a ute like VMW. Where is Wiluna, anyway? It`s far from the coast, 947
km NE of Perth:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiluna,_Western_Australia
Presumably situated there to be at an optimum skip distance from the WA coasts
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 11640, May 20 at 1321, fine performance of Dvorak`s New World
Symphony, but a faster tempo than we are accustomed to, no doubt a Chinese
orchestra thing, during the CNR1 Sunday-night serious-music hour featuring
Western classical pieces. Ends at 1335 and Chinese announcement. Is it usually
longer than 35 minutes? It`s surprisingly difficult to search out
performance/recording durations. Also same on 9680 and 9660. Unfortunately,
this great piece is being used by the ChiCom as a JAMMER vs inaudible victims:
all three Radio Taiwan International in Chinese (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11860, May 19 at 2230, RHC is off, while sometimes it`s on with
Spanish at 21-23. Something`s always wrong at RHC. No Yemen [non] to be heard
anyway.
9535, May 20 at 0112 check, RHC is back on original frequency, ex-9530 where it
had jumped 24 hours earlier.
13700 & 13740, Sunday May 20 at 1335, RHC active on both with squeals,
far-left-slanted, anti-imperio news headlines about Bolivia and Ecuador
supporting Venezuelan ``elexions``; `En Contacto` starting late almost 1338,
first item about a PEI lighthouse activated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7470, May 20 at 0538, YHWH is on and audible (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 530 kHz, May 19 circa 1930 UT, I am driving along Rupe street near
Vance AFB, so try to hear K530AM on caradio --- not a bit of it vs high storm
noise level. Back home with a BFO I can tell the carrier is still on, 1229 UT
check May 20 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 338 kHz, May 20 at 1222 UT, ND beacon TU. I`ll bet it`s
Tulsa --- yes, 30 watts per dxinfocentre. I don`t recall hearing this one
before, yet a close one; is it always on? Post sunrise, after the storm noise
has abated a bit, I am tuning for what I can pull through on LW. One other:
356 kHz, May 20 at 1225 UT, ND beacon PTT; let`s see, Pittsburg KS? NO, Pratt
KS, 25 watts, heard before. I`m axually tuned to 354 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 7824.5-LSB, May 20 at 1237 UT, ham discussing 2m repeater
frequencies, only one station audible, not his contacts. Must be another second
harmonic from the 3.9 MHz band --- so check 3912.25 --- no, the same guy is
really on 3912.50-LSB; why not an exact match? Evidently the NCS, but seldom
mentions his own call. The other non-harmonicizing stations can be heard only
on the fundamental.
Someone else, K5MRK, Mark, calls him W5AS, and finally his own ID at 1245.
Refers to a store in Edmond, an event June 2, QCWA chapter 63 (but it sure
sounded like they were saying QCWH). All about it here:
http://www.qcwa.org/qcwa063/index.html
Sunday at 7:30 am CT is the ``W5AS Memorial Net``, 3912.5 +/- 2 kHz
But I cannot find any individual name to go with call W5AS! ARRL/FCC:
CENTRAL OKLA CHAPTER 63 QCWA, W5AS (Club)
3509 PATTERSON DRIVE
EDMOND, OK 73013
ATTN: HOWARD O WISE JR
Trustee: WISE JR, HOWARD O, WD5IDB
Previous call sign: KC5QVX
However, the ch 63 website says: ``Sadly, Howard O. Wise, WD5IDB, former Net
Manager became a SK on July 14, 2017``. The QRZ.com page for W5AS is even more
out of date from September, 2015. So no telling who is now operating the
harmonic-producing club station (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9380, May 20 at 1251, hymn in clear at S9-S7, no QRM, 1253
English outro as ``Fly Like an Eagle`` and into Chinese talk. We are counting
the days until FEBC get around to moving to 9275 on May 27. Alok Dasgupta,
Kolkata, explains on the dx_india yg, replying to my original report April 1:
``After several correspondence between 16th April and 27th April, Mr. Samuel E.
Ponilas, Transmission Manager of FEBC in Manila informed that they're moving to
9275 effective 27th May 2018 at 1000-1600 in Chinese replacing 9380 as AIR is
using this almost 24x7. FEBC moved to 9380 as 9430 is now reserved for IRDR
project``
Ah, so: HFCC shows IRDR the only [non]-station officially on 9430: usual SMG
CVA as placeholder, but only at 01-12, 13-14, 16-24 for all 85 CIRAF zones with
100 kW at 0 degrees (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1930 monitoring: Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria,
confirms: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 6190 CUSB, May 19:
http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.bg/2018/05/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_19.html
0630-0700 6190 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg to CeEu English Sat, poor signal``
Not confirmed on WBCQ 9330v, Sat May 19 at 2130 or 2330, as Brother HyStairical
rages on. Confirmed Sat May 19 at 2300 on WRMI 7780, poor.
Also confirmed UT Sun May 20 at 0200 on WRMI 7780, JBA --- so the revised
program schedule is wrong for removing WOR from this airing. Also confirmed by
Alan Gale, England: ``Hi Glenn, I can confirm that World of Radio 1930 is on
7780.0 kHz at 0200 UT on Sunday 20th of May; it's putting a very strong signal
into the UK at the moment. 73 for now, Alan`` --- with a clip of exactly when I
mention uncertainty about this emission. Glad to know it is doing well over
there, even if in the middle of the night; get some sleep, Alan!
Also confirmed by Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria: ``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio
via HLR on 9485 kHz CUSB on May 20
http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.bg/2018/05/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_20.html
1031-1100 9485 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg CEu Sun, poor/weak signal`` Next:
Sun 1900 WRMI 9395 to NNW
Sun 2330 WBCQ 9330v to WSW [maybe]
Mon 0130.5 WRMI 5850 to NW, 7780 to NE
Mon 0300v WBCQ 5130v Area 51 to WSW
Mon 0330 WRMI 9955 to SSE
Mon 0400 WRMI webcast only
Mon 2330 WBCQ 9330v to WSW [maybe]

Full schedule for WOR on all outlets, not just SW; podcast linx:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Correcting previous report which started with typo 7390.04:
7490.04 to 7490.03, UT Sat May 19 at 0001, WBCQ opening `Allan Weiner
Worldwide` with ``William Tell Overture``, but soon apparent it`s another oldie
playback, in fact the same one heard last night, despite AW claiming to be
``live`` --- should have edited that out; with girlfriend Angela and the WE
mic; I thought that was from Feb, but at 0053 recheck he`s referring to Brother
Scare having been arrested ``last month``, which was December. Unlike last
week, this show is not duplicated on 9330 where BS continues. 5129.8 probably
is // but a JBA carrier buried in the summer storm noise level (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9455, May 19 at 2218, secret WRMI transmission is still on here, with
Oldies music at S7-S4, better than before, but still much weaker than 9395 at
S9-S9+5, which also sounds like Oldies music but *not* // 9455. 9455 with
definite WRMI IDs at 2220 & 2221 before and after Dish Network commercial
(their only spot advertiser??). Listened to 9395 past 2231 with no
announcements, until a Biermann ID at 2234.
9455 recheck May 20 at 1254, a JBA carrier, presumably still WRMI, as
Bangladesh is not starting its Nepali until 1315.
As of May 19, no recent posts on WRMI FB where sometimes there is station news
not available anywhere else. As of May 20, still nothing on the WRMI skedgrids
about 9455 really being on the air! Searching http://tinyurl.com/WRMIfqs for
9455 gets no hits in the transmission or program schedules. And still no reply
to my inquiry (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9955, May 19 at 2225, rare bit in Portuguese on WRMI,
predicating/preaching in Luso, not Brasilian accent. Sked shows ``Frank y [sic]
Ernest (Port)`` at 2315-2330 Sats. Believe besides the RAE relay at 11-12 M-F,
this is the only other PP item on WRMI sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Sat May 19 at 1830, WTWW-2 is active with Ted interviewing a YL
who runs recnet and private FCC-info websites, fcc.today and fccdata.org ---
thus she is an authority on FCC broadcast axions, not ham. Refers to Huntsville
(AL, not TX!) hamfest, which was in August, maybe when/where this was recorded,
rather than current Xenia hamfest. Never hear her name, as Ted doesn`t
re-introduce guests in protracted chats, but must be Michelle Bradley per
http://recnet.com/about --- Ends at 1906, and on to music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
