** CHINA. 12190, July 19 at 1225, strong S9-S7 CNR1 jammer with YL
narration over music, which leads me to a quick bandscan to 1230

** U S A. 15810-, July 18 at 1801 (following up previous report),
WTWW-3 is still on but now with double audio! Gospel huxter talking,
maybe not PPPP, and hymn with lyrix at equal level, so not intended as
background, still at 1826. Carrier is wobbling slightly, which is
typical, or I might suspect they are axually running two transmitters
at once on same frequency.
15810+, July 19 at 1544, JBA carrier but this one slightly on the plus
side, and much2 weaker than 15825 WWCR at S9+10/15, so probably
something else, maybe local device, unless maybe WTWW be on exciter
only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 730, July 19 at 0558 UT, dominant signal is sports talk in
English, string of ESPN promos, including one for ``ESPN
Charlotte``, and at 0600 UT, ``The Game, Charlotte, 730 AM and 97.5
FM``. No call copied but listed as WZGV, CoL Cramerton NC, U1
10000/165/psra 206 and also W248CO, on 97.5. Cramerton is a west=side
suburb on the way to Gastonia. So it`s dominant with only 165 watts?
Right ---
730 is an intriguing DX frequency, with a couple dozen USA stations
but none legally running more than 1000 watts at night, many less than
100 or even less than 10! In fact the only 1 kW is KQPN West Memphis
AR.
Because 730 was a Canadian/Mexican ``clear``. Canada has two 50/50 kW
stations in Montreal and Vancouver, and in between 10/5 kW in
Manitoba. As for XEX Mexico City, it used to be dominant with 100/100
kW, but suspect it has been downgraded. No sign of it now, at least on
my E/W longwire toward NC. Annoying splash from 740 KRMG Tulsa
Also just before ToH, heard mention of an area code 412 phone number,
which is Pittsburgh PA --- unless on a network feed, that could
correspond to 730 WPIT, U1 5000/24/psra 225 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

** U S A. KGOU has more about the changes at StarDate:
``Sandy Wood Retires, Billy Henry Becomes Voice of StarDate
By Rebecca Johnson and McDonald Observatory ? Jul 16, 2019
https://www.kgou.org/post/sandy-wood-retires-billy-henry-becomes-voice-stardate
StarDate Sandy Wood [portrait]
https://www.kgou.org/sites/kgou/files/styles/x_large/public/201907/Sandy-Wood.jpg
Sandy Wood, the popular and charismatic announcer of the StarDate
radio program, is retiring after 28 years on the air. Her final
episode will air July 16.
Listen 0:35 Sandy Wood: "Keep looking up."
https://cpa.ds.npr.org/kgou/audio/2019/07/Stardate_SandyFarewell_0.mp3
StarDate is the longest running nationally syndicated science program
on American radio. Produced by The University of Texas at Austin?s
McDonald Observatory, the program began in 1978. It brings a daily
two-minute message of astronomy and skywatching to 2.3 million weekly
listeners via more than 300 stations across the country. Wood took
over from original announcer Joel Block after the program?s first
dozen years.
?Since 1991 I?ve been with you every day, telling you about the
wonders of the universe,? she says at the end of the July 16 episode.
?Recent health problems, though, have left me unable to continue, so
this is my final episode. My thanks for all of the support from our
StarDate audience ? the best in the universe!?
StarDate producer Damond Benningfield has worked with Wood since her
original audition. ?This really breaks my heart,? Benningfield says.
?Not only is she an amazing announcer, she?s one of the kindest and
most thoughtful people I?ve ever known. She?s also a hoot, so our
recording sessions are probably going to be a lot duller without
her.?
Wood?s first broadcast aired September 16, 1991, and she recorded a
total of 10,166 episodes. She also recorded several podcasts for
McDonald Observatory projects, and she narrated videos that play at
the observatory?s Frank N. Bash Visitors Center and other venues at
the Fort Davis campus, as well as on various web sites.
?I very much appreciate Sandy Wood?s dedicated service to McDonald
Observatory. Her enthusiastic and consistent delivery of astronomy
news for StarDate has built a large and committed audience of
astronomy enthusiasts,? said McDonald Director Taft Armandroff. ?As I
travel the country and speak with fans of astronomy and The University
of Texas, there are always questions and good wishes for Sandy Wood
and StarDate.?
Wood has been a broadcaster since the 1960s, serving as a radio DJ and
talk-show host, and voicing programs and commercials for local,
regional, and national clients, including NASA.
Billy Henry [portrait]
Voice talent Billy Henry will be taking over for Sandy Wood beginning
July 17, 2019. Billy is no stranger to public radio, serving as the
voice for Brain Stories and going on to record hundreds of voiceovers
for TV, radio and film including Texas Tourism, Schlotzky?s, Southwest
Airlines, NASCAR, Guitar Center, Dell, AMD, Velocity Credit Union, the
IMAX film, Texas: The Big Picture, and many more.
Henry is involved in many creative fields. In addition to doing voice
work, he is a composer, musician, teacher, sound designer, and ?maker
of things,? including musical instruments.
He has written hundreds of pieces of music for clients , movie scores,
and music for theater and dance productions and toured the world with
The Court Yard Hounds and the Dixie Chicks. He teaches at Texas State
University in San Marcos and has taught at UT-Austin as well.
?While I might not be able to stick it out for 28 years like Sandy
did, I?m looking forward to telling you about the universe for a long
time to come,? says Henry in an audio introduction recorded for
StarDate?s many affiliate radio stations.
Billy Henry?s warm voice and conversational delivery style will
continue the StarDate tone established by Sandy Wood during her tenure
with the program`` (via KGOU Newsletter July 18 via DXLD)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1670, July 19 at 0621 UT, very poor signal mentions
``1530 AM``. Usual 1670 here of the only four Unitedstatesians is WOZN
Madison WI. I can`t find any group relation to a 1530 station, nor for
the other three 1670s, one of which is Spanish anyway (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 2750, July 19 at 1216 UT, weak carrier fading; not even
2850 North Korea is audible. Not a spot for local mixtures. If a MW
harmonic, it could only be 5 x 550, where KFRM KS dominates daytimes
here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA [non]. 9570, July 20 at 0155, no signal from CRI ALBANIA
relay, while 9580 via CUBA is VG with `China Studio` LL filler.
Supposed to run 00-04, half & half English & Chinese. Bad propagation
from Europe? NO, 9420 GREECE is S9+5, 9495 Rep?blica via FRANCE is
S9+15 over jamming. But 9690 SPAIN is missing too, q.v. (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 4765, July 20 at 0152, Radio Progreso is back on after
missing at least one month, music at S9+30/40 but undermodulated
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GERMANY. 7495, July 20 at 0141, very poor broadcast, bit of music,
then someone banging on a can at the rate of 5X per second. Unusual to
hear anything here next to WBCQ which is still on 7490+. HFCC shows
IBB Lampertheim, 100 kW, 80 degrees at 0030-0230 alternating semihours
in Pst and Prs, which mean Pashto and Dari; so what is it, really? Per
EiBi, VOA Ashna Radio, target IRAN! Instead of Afghanistan (Glenn
Hauser, OK DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SPAIN. 11940, UT Sat July 20 at 0158, S8 of crackling instead of
REE, supposed to be on here Tue-Sat for S America until 0200; likewise
9690 for N America. Maybe they just went off early before I intuned.
When they used to sign off at 2300, earworm interval signal would play
for several minutes more (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.1+v, UT Sat July 20, WBCQ with `Allan Weiner Worldwide`
? I catch a few bits later in the hour, as I am really not interested
in what the same callers every week have to say. AW says they have had
a few computer issues this week; John in Florida`s program [VORW] was
messed up but he will not be charged for it. Have staff shortage, need
more operators, especially for Superstation, which will not be back on
until August. John Carver reports on the whole hour:
``Trying 7490 again this week after noise forced me to 5130 last week.
Program started a few seconds early after some fill music. Allan and
Angela in the studio. Talk of the heat wave, half naked women,
moonbats blaming everyone else for the heatwave. Freddie on the phone
at 0007. Talk of heatwave, proper temperature to set air conditioners
at and the moon landing. Freddie off the phone at 0024 to be
immediately replaced by Dave in Indiana. Continuation of the moon
landing talk.
Superstation is down as they're doing some redesign on the antenna and
preparing the transmitter for the frequency changes coming. WLC
insists on being able to penetrate Arab countries. They are also
tweaking the computer control for the transmitter to allow smoother
transitions when the antenna is turned or frequency changed. Even
though the transmitter itself is water cooled, they've found they have
to add a lot more air conditioning in order to cool the transmitter
cases. Superstation will be back on the air next month. Was also
mention of adding another frequency to the classic WBCQ, 6160. Reading
of emails at 0053. Closing prayer at 0059. Program was off the air at
0104. John, Mid-North Indiana``
What I heard was really on the webcast. After Angela`s ending ID about
0105, immediately over to Brother Scare. but checking 7490.1 itself at
0140, it`s still on with music; 0150 now it`s double audio again,
mixture of a talk program and a music program. One of them with 0200
ToH canned ID, and switch to Brother Scare, only.
6160, new registered WBCQ frequency with nominal 50 kW at same 245
degree azimuth as all the other ``classix``, not in use yet; to
replace 9330 with same old transmitter? Will be cozy with 6165 RHC for
~6 hours a night, often undermodulated, sometimes plenty strong.
5130.4, UT Sat July 20 at 0151, this WBCQ is also still on with some
talk; 0200 opening? a program we had never heard of or about, `One
Hundred watts and a Wire`, with ad/plugs for Icom ham equipment, and
also own website onehundredwattsandawire.com --- no, make it numbers:
http://100wattsandawire.com/
which has been a podcast for four years, but nothing about it being on
WBCQ. ``The intersection of life and amateur radio``; originates in
Florissant MO; about heat wave in Missouri; participating in the 13
Colonies special event recently.
So this and whatever was on 7490 after AWWW should be on the WBCQ
program schedule, right? Wrong. Nothing shown on 7490 after 0100 Sat;
on 5130, ``Sa 0100 0200 UTC Fr 09:00PM 10:00PM EST [sic] Matt Boland
Presents`` instead of 100watts, etc. BTW, `Radio for Peace
International` is now listed on 5130, UT Friday at 0200-0300.
3264.9, July 20 at 0204, JBA carrier from this WBCQ; improving? Was
never listenable even in winter. The only program on sked for it is
AAAWWW, UT Sat 00-01 in the ``trimulcast`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3215, July 20 at 0205, WWCR-1 gospel huxter with squeal on
#1 transmitter as also heard when strong on 15825. Should also appear
when on 6115 at 22-01 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VATICAN [non]. 7305, July 20 at 0145, YL ending `Vatican News` in
Spanish with contact info, and immediately restarting `Vatican News`
in Spanish --- are they axually playing the same program twice in a
row to fill the doubled airtime? VG via Grimesland NC relay (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
