also audible, W5EIY, who in fact is in Enid: see OKLAHOMA. QRZ.com:

NT5V will be active from Belize October 5-12, 2019. I will upload all
QSO's to LOTW when I get home``. Nowhere any info about *where* in
Belize he may be; secret? Is the OSOB on 17m, and zero broadcast
signals on 16m [how can 17m be shorter than 16m? Rounding errors?]. He
soon closes, ``73 for now`` saying V31CC will soon come up on 30m.
That`s another OM from Dallas, NN5E, Vernon H. Berry. They are

dash and YYU still on, a day before decommissioning in Kapuskasing,
Ontario; and still no sign of local Enid 25-watter EI. When I get a
chance, must visit Woodring Airport to find out the fate of EI. Of
course, some beacons are turned on only at certain hours, or when an

** CANADA. 335 kHz, Oct 9 at 0645 UT, dash and ND beacon YLD, which is
1000 watts from Chapleau, Ontario, not sked for decommissioning. Seems
first time I`ve logged it but Harold Frodge, Michigan has reported it
numerous times since at least 2006y. Chapleau is between Timmins and
SSM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 336 kHz, Oct 9 at 0646 UT, ND beacon BV with long pauses

Trout Lake is a large lake in Northern Ontario. The Fawn River flows

6095-USB, Morse CQ, CQ overrides out of 6100-AM RHC as `DXers
Unlimited` is opening at this odd time instead of nominal :30. Ailing
Arnie voice first about Tokelau (spelt) DX-pedition. Ends at 0632
already, into mandatory anti-American segment, `Connecting the Dots`
this time about ``Philippine resistance to the American Empire``

always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 18120-USB, Oct 8 at 2127, ``W5EIY in northwest Oklahoma``
contacting V31JW in BELIZE, q.v. Axually right here in Enid, so I look
him up in QRZ.com for the record:
``BILL C NOKES
2802 NIGHTENGALE LANE
ENID, OK 73703
USA
Hello! My name is Bill, and I have been W5EIY since 1954.
I was born in Weatherford, OK, grew up on a farm there, graduated HS
in 1957 and headed off to Oklahoma State University for six years to
get degrees in Animal Science & Horticulture. After OSU, I moved to
Texas for about eight years, then came to Enid in 1973 to look after
parents -- both my wife's and my own.
After a few years in the banking business I started off on a new
career as a sales rep for a nail and air nailer company, covering four
states and driving about 5,000 miles a month. In 2012, after 35 years
on the road, I retired to have more time to play radio and encourage
our eight grandchildren in their sports, music and theatre
endeavors.
My rig is a Kenwood TS-570S running 80-90 watts. On 40M I use a 33-ft
long inverted L. Just 33 feet? Yeah, covenants keep me in the stealth
mode. The end-fed wire sneaks up 15 feet vertically alongside my
workshop/shack, then runs 18 feet horizontally--never higher than the
peak of the wood shake roof.
My alternate antenna is a 44-ft end-fed sloper with a 9:1 UnUn.
I enjoy both CW and SSB operation, especially late night DX-ing and
rag-chewing. Plus, experimenting with simple antennas, including
portable ones. With K5ECI, another "Bill in Enid," we are assembling
a go-kit around my Alinco DX70TH to use in case of a storm or other
emergency -- or even for day-trips to local state parks.
Hope to CU soon. Good DX to all! And let's keep pounding that brass.
PHOTOS: (UPPER-L) My station is the TS-570S, power supplies Samlex
1223 and MFJ-4225, speaker, HamKey and Speed-X straight keys, and a
hand mike. Just the basics, but what great fun!
(UPPER-R) SKCC, FISTS, WAC and WAS certificates earned with my peanut
whistle set-up. Those deer antlers are from a well-remembered hunting
trip with my son when he was ten years old.
(LOWER-L) If you have worked another "Bill in Enid," that would
probably be K5ECI, on right in the yellow vest. We are at the annual
Cherokee Strip parade celebrating the 1893 Land Run with some
longhorns right in our hip pockets.

** U S A. 5970, Oct 9 at 0635-0640+, WEWN carrier with no modulation
is cutting off and on at an extremely regular pace of 84 times per
minute; why? Probably no one around Vandiver to notice in the
nightmiddle; or if personned, dozed off. WEWN is a neat source of new
anomalies. But we are meanwhile deprived of Spanish Roman Catholicism
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6095-USB, Oct 9 at 0622, 2-way in English, JBA because
of heavy splash from strong 6100 RHC. Why in the world are they here
nor at least on LSB which would have been much better? (6090 Anguilla,
of course, is absent.) Unseems formal, urgent or military, just random
ham-like ragchew. At first only one side audible, then detectable
contact (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
