KERR 750 Polson, MT easily heard here in Phoenix last night at 10PM MST. Mixing
with KAMA, no sign of usual powerhouse KOAL. Checked this morning and KERR not
there (as expected), but had a nice CKJH logging. KERR and CKJH are rarely
heard in Phoenix. 73, John

re 9746v kHz.
Nothing heard on this range at 09.20 UT on Oct 11.
Noted only NHK R Japan Yamata on even 9750 kHz,
here in Italy, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Finland, Qatar and India too.

Earlier:
** BAHRAIN. 9741.25, Radio Bahrain in H3E (AM compatible USB mode) at 2018 in
Arabic with an apparent radio drama with male and female characters with
spirited talk with definite mentions of ?Bahrain? and light instrumental music
bridges between scenes - Fair to Good Oct 6 ? They have drifted a bit since I
last logged them some years ago (Mark Coady, Selwyn, Ontario with a Ten-Tec
Argonaut II and 80 and 40 meter off centre-fed dipoles (OCFD) and an Alpha
Delta DX-LB inverted vee dipole, ODXA iog via WORLD OF RADIO 2003, DXLD)
Mode as specified in WRTH which also shows nominal is 9745, not 9740 and
supposedly 24 hours; one frequency but two SW transmitters, one of 10 kW,
another of 60 kW. This one continues to elude me (gh, WORLD OF RADIO 2003, DXLD)

** CHINA. 11100, Oct 11 at 1328 JBA Chinese; 10920 JBA carrier. Both
are Aoki-listed CNR-1 *jammed Sound of Hope frequencies. No exhaustive
bandscan for more today, so these will have to suffice (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5040, Oct 11 at 0611, RHC is still on at S9+20 but dead air.
Other English frequencies: 6000 still on but undermodulated; 6100
S9+30/40 somewhat suptorted; 6165 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13700, Oct 11 at 1320, RHC is off while 13740 is on, so no
spurs today --- wait, at 1324, 13700 is on late or after a break,
producing FMish spurblobs circa 13767, JBA on 13838, trace on 13637.
The F# tone is best heard in FM mode only. 13700 itself is
undermodulated and only S9+10 while 13740 is fully modulated at S9+30.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9570, Oct 11 at 1401, CRI plus English relay is still on
late; so what about 11880? Also on but dead air until brings up
modulation at 1404; then I check 9570 again and it has gone off.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9615-9670, Oct 11 at 1406, approx. buzz field range out of
9640 RHC; worst peaks circa 9631 and 9649. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING IIGEST)
** MEXICO. 710.00, Oct 11 at 1157, W&M in Spanish discussing crime
news in Chihuahua; no ID or break at ToH, 6:02 timecheck at 1202 UT.
Nor any national anthem which most XEs play around 6 am local. It`s
XEDP, Ciudad Cuauht?moc. Same W still audible at 1242 with 6:43 TC.
IRCA Log says has been off-frequency -185 Hz for years, but not now,
nor has it been lately. Very close to the QRM, KGNC/KCMO. Believe this
is one I researched a few years ago in FCC database as having two
different transmitter sites, so presumed one of them is seldom-used
off-frequency, backup? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING IIGEST)
** U S A. Remember, first SW airings of new WORLD OF RADIO 2003 should
be on RMI Friday at 2200 on 9955; UT Saturday 0130 on 5010, 5850, 7780
(Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9455, Oct 11 at 0608, WRMI-8 is still on with Brother Scare.
As part of great expansion of BS hours on WRMI, #8 is now running 24
hours with BS at all times except previously active: 19-21 M-F APS
Radio; and 01-03 UT Thu only with Hal Turner. This disregards other
stations` usage of 9455: as of Oct 11, HFCC still shows WRMI only at
01-05; other times Saudi Arabia, Guam, Taiwan, China, Japan.
9455 also Oct 11 at 1355 with instrumental gospel music, something
else? No, // 9395 and soon BS resumes speaking. Both are on 355 degree
antennas, wasteful but BS has money to burn for WRMI.
7780, WRMI-1 is now also scheduled 24 hours, including TOMBS at 03-14
and 17-20. VP at 1409 sounds like BS, probably also this hour on
weekdays since SMTV runs on Sat, Sun only. BTW, We also see where
RAE`s missing German broadcast has gone: 7780 at 16-17, not specified
but presumably M-F only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1110, Oct 11 at 1250 UT, talk in S Asian language, best with
KFAB nulled. Of course, it`s KVTT Mineral Wells (The Metroplex) TX,
listed merely as ``Asian`` format. Don`t hear this often; is 50 kW
daytimer but now would be reduced to only 39 kW Critical Hours. D4 in
NRC AM Log means different antenna pattern during CH than in daytime
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, Oct 11 before LSR
of 1235 UT; first check at 1158 on 774 finds a good one from the NW.
At 1204-1223, bandscan on the DX-398, so I can DF whether NW from E
Asia or WSW from Australia/New Zealand+. Some without an angle were
too weak to tell, or more likely an even mix of both. In some cases a
beat could be heard between stations a few Hz apart (2).
594-NW, 603, 612-NW, 657, 693-NW, 702(2)-WSW>NW, 747-NW, 756-NW,
774-NW, 792(2)-WSW, 828-NW, 837, 864-NW, 873-NW, 882(2)-WSW>NW,
945-NW, 972-NW, 1035-WSW, 1044-NW, 1053-NW, 1098-W, 1116-NW,
1125(2)-WSW>NW, 1134-NW, 1143-NW>WSW, 1197-NW, 1287-NW, 1314-NW,
1332-NW, 1422-WSW, 1557-NW, 1566-NW. There could have been even more,
obscured by splash from North Americans 1 or 2 kHz away.
At 1232 I switch to the R75 with E-W longwire, so no DFing but a bit
more gain: 774 has trace of Japanese audio. Then sweep at 1234-1240,
JBA carriers on: 891, 882, 873, 864, 846, 837, 828, 774, 756, 747,
738, 729, 702(2), 693, 666, 657, 612, 594, 567, 558; this spanned LSR
1235, until 1238. Also after sunrise: 1125, 1134, 1143, 1566 at 1240
Oct 11 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9345-9350-9355, Oct 11 at 1356-1400+, sounds like DRM
noise, S9-S7 with some fading. At first suspected NF for WINB as not
heard on 15115-15120-15125, but this is full 10-kHz, not WINB`s hybrid
5+5 with data on lower half. Nothing in HFCC or Aoki to account for
this in DRM or AM. Later at 1505, I do detect WINB DRM around 15117;
and by now maybe a trace left on 9350. Wonder if it`s one of the DVR
(Far East Russia) experiments? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 15034-USB, Oct 11 at 2052, CHR Trenton Military, *still*
``No report received`` from anywhere. This applies both to latest
conditions and terminal forecasts. Signal not always there when I
randomcheck so unseems continuous. Like this, it might as well be
completely discontinuous (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 15370, Oct 11 at 2051, RHC S4-S5 in Portuguese but just
barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. 15580, Friday October 11 at 2049, VOA `The Africa
Beat` music and DJ, poor-fair S5-S7, but better than usual. BOTSWANA
relay is on here until 2200, presumably still with `Music Time in
Africa` weekly Fridays during next hour from 2100. In B-seasons only,
MTIA has been on Greenville 15580, and in B-19 we regain Grimesland B
during the final hour only, but on new 11720. That should be good for
us off the back from almost due east azimuth with a smaller skip zone
and less challenge to the MUF (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2003 monitoring: confirmed first SWBC, Friday
October 11 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, S9 with flutter fading to S6 --
propagation disturbance? But the other WRMIs on 9455 and 9395 are
strong and steady, no such fluxuation. Maybe something amiss with the
9955 transmitter. By 2321 recheck its carrier beneath the jamming now
sounds nominal.
Also confirmed UT Saturday October 12 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 to the
NW, VG S9+20; checked at 0156, 7780 to the NE is JBA S5-S6 noisy, 5010
to the S is better, S9/S9+10, somewhat undermodulated and also noisy.

** U S A. (7490), UT Sat Oct 12 at 0000, I`m tuned in to the WBCQ
webcast for AAAWWW; bits of other music until 0002 when `William Tell
Overture` theme finally plays; sounds lo-fi as if from a remote
location. Opening remarx about ``all the crap going on`` so I know we
are in for a political rant. Mentions that A&A are now in DeLand of
FLA, so our suspicion about their absence last week was correct,
getting out of ME before it freezes. Quickly interrupted by a call
from Hal Turner who already has his own show expanded to 6 hours a
week, so more politix are coming.
I don`t pay attention until 0028 when he changes to station info: The
SuperStation is fine, operational, except for transmitter tuning
problem. Factory tuned it to two frequencies, getting it to run on
higher bands is not easy, and the transmitter manufacturer
[CONTINENTAL] has not been co?perative; all they care about is money;
after spending millions of dollars already, nothing but bills and
trouble from them. ``So tired of it!`` Needs higher frequencies on 12,
13, 15, 17 MHz to reach North Africa and area. The antenna is perfect
but the transmitter --- ``I don`t want to say it`s a lemon.`` The
company has [had?] a great reputation, but now they send outrageous
invoices and the wrong people.
AW then calls for any good engineers out there to apply to WBCQ. They
are getting harder and harder to find, those who can deal with
high-voltage equipment. Engineering is tiring, hard work, with poor
pay, but satisfying. All SW stations are having such problems. [Maybe
Bob Biermann could help?]. Suggests that TimTron and Tom Barna are of
an age to be thinking about retirement.
Then he goes over the 7490 program schedule, day by day, hour by hour
(with quite a few omissions). When he gets to Wednesday at 5 pm
EASTERN, he takes note of Glenn`s 2,000 World of Radio programs ---
``that`s something --- that`s pretty good. Glenn, although crotchety,
we love you``.
Thursday evening, VORW has canceled, so there`s an opening. At 0047
the webcast starts dropping out (silent but still playing); maybe he
covers the 5130 schedule next? Running again by 0050 as he goes thru
the just published latest issue of Free Radio Weekly, about SW and FM
pirates (Bay City MI is in Michigan, BTW, not Minnesota = MN).
Wrapping up at 0057, mentions this show is only on 7490, something
else on 5130 (and meshes with my obs earlier of no signals on 9330,
6160 or 3265; why not?). Soon into benedixion, mentioning Brother
Stair whom they visited on the way to FLA; and seems he is really
trying to wind up by 0100 since Hal Turner now follows.
I say, it may not be convenient, but as long as the 500 kW won`t
co?perate and the rotatable antenna is fine, why not connect one of
the old transmitters to it; huge gain would make a big difference even
with only ``50`` kW. Anyhow it seems the S-S will funxion at least on
9330, so why not make the most of that?
Now over to John Carver for his version of: ``Tonight's AAWWW --- Show
started about a minute late on 7490 this evening. Allan and Angela in
the studio in FLA. Opens with a phone call from Hal Turner at 0005
talking about Syria and then lots of political talk. Hal Turner also
said something about California trying to do away with ham radio.
Another phone call at 0019 which was also political.
Allan said the superstation was fine and the antenna was perfect but
there is a problem tuning the transmitter to the higher frequencies
that they need to use. Says it's a design flaw. They're working with
the factory trying to resolve things but he says the factory keeps
sending the wrong people to do the work and is charging them
outrageous fees to do so. He came very close to calling the
transmitter a lemon. Says the world needs more transmitter engineers
and asked the listening audience if there were any transmitter
engineers listening to the program that would like to come and work in
Maine.
Then he went through the program schedule for the station which I
couldn't keep up with and was also marred by a series of internet feed
dropouts. One lasting for two minutes. When audio came back Allan was
starting to read the Free Radio Weekly and then went into other
emails. Closing prayer at 0058 and program was cut off at 0059. John,
Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
