** ARGENTINA [non]. 7780, UT Sun Dec 29 at 0101, WRMI opening `La Rosa
de Tokio` from Argentina with credit to Dr. Arnaldo Slaen. Usually
he`s known without the Dr and I wonder what kind he is, medical? With
some notable exceptions, a number of DXers with doctorates do not
identify themselves as such in our field (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 6070, UT Sun Dec 29 at 0115, CFRX interview Jim ---, NY
Times TV critic about ``breaking news`` constantly on cable networx.
Later break IDs show as `Viewpoint`. But CFRB 1010 schedule at
https://www.iheartradio.ca/newstalk-1010/shows
shows Sat at 8+ pm EST is supposed to be `Ask the Experts` with
`Viewpoints` not until midnight = 05 UT Sunday. So much for that. I
was recalling CFRX used to have a media program around this time
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 5040, Dec 29 at 0132, RHC in Brazuguese with squeal. This
semihour is supposed to be in French with squeal. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6000, Dec 29 at 0132, RHC English is suptorted as often on
this transmitter. Still so at 0710 check when not only is it still on,
but so are 6100 & 6145 which are merely undermodulated, but no 5040.
Something`s always wrong at RHC.
Wolfgang B?schel was also monitoring via remotes even later, surprised
that 6100 & 6145 were still on; 0759 both announced the upcoming
Sunday-only Esperanto and 0800 started to carry that, but 6100 cut off
incomplete at 0809:20* and 6145 at 0817:30*. Io ?iam estas mal?usta ?e
Radio Habana Kubo (BTW, unlike Wolfie who strips all accents off his
posts, whatever the language, I try to maintain them: if your display
has lost them, there are circumflexes over c and g in the above)(Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13634 & 13766, weaker 13831 approx., Dec 29 at 1541, FM/AM
spurblobs out of 13700-AM, this time about 66 kHz apart. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2014 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday December 29 at 0450 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Missouri, 21 minutes in
so started circa 0429; VG S9+20/30; lots of CW below 1860 must be a
contest, but not bothering us. Next:

** U S A. 9350, Sat Dec 28 from 2100, `Encore` classical music on
WWCR, excellent signal. But around 2136 I am noticing some slight QRM,
weak talk modulation; during quiet music passage sounds like a
commercial for eggs benedict at Southern Highlands. Could it be
intermodulation from another WWCR transmitter or its 50 kW AM at same
site, WNQM 1300? Or something local here? With extremely strong SW
signals, our local AMs KGWA or KCRC might interact. But is still there
with R75 ATT switched on and Preamps switched off. But then I notice
that the QRM stops during Brice`s announcements, heard only while
music plays. That implies it might be on his original recording, but
the American-accented commercial content is hardly likely to be
getting into his recording from a nearby transmitter in Scotland. I
have not checked whether this also happen on the WWCR webcast. We`ll
have another chance to check if it`s there on the WBCQ repeat after
0100 UT Monday on 7490+v, when that signal will surely not be strong
enough here to discern it, but try that webcast which we hope by then
will no longer be overmodulated.
9350, Sat Dec 28 after 2200, sounds like an unscheduled `Ask WWCR`
with the two guys discussing reception results for the VORW Xmas
special on various frequencies. But keeps going after 2215 -- they
plug for live contacts if being heard after 23 UT Fri Dec 27, so this
is a playback of an unscheduled special, also trying to get monetary
donations to keep WWCR going.
This is a relatively recent development which must mean business is
bad --- a very commercial station begging for direct listener support.
WTWW has started doing this too! Finally break for some country music
at 2220; maybe this be considered a WW Country Radio hour? One project
WWCR needs $$ for is replacing sound cards --- i.e. the defective
squeal on WWCR-1, so they must finally be aware of that. BTW, I was
looking at the photo gallery on WWCR website; still linx to
ex-staffers such as overthrown Adam Lock and George McClintock, but
they lead nowhere (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Dec 29 at 0058, WTWW-2 not on yet; usually
already running ham radio stuff. Is on by 0128 recheck, S9+20, just in
time for ID and `theater organ music from our brand-new studio in
Illinois`, more for Xmas even tho it`s too late now; enjoy the 15 & 30
cycle [Hz] tones with headphones on SW, but I am soon switching to
webcast where that`s more likely and in $tereo too. No formal opening
to show; Bob Heil never mentions his name or the Ozarx (but I will
continue to spell it thus whenever I get a chance). Wraps up at 0200
sharp again without any formal closing or program title. Redesigned
WTWW website still claims `Theater Organ from the Ozarks` [sic] is at
8 pm Saturdays on the homepage; 6:30 pm Central Saturdays, on the
programming page; wrong, wrong! Now at 0200 UT I note that 5830 WTWW-1
SFAW PPPP is back on the air too (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
