** CHINA. CNR1 WOOB jammer search, Sept 21 at 1415; only found JBA
carriers on 12880, 11100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** COLOMBIA? 4940, Sept 21 at 0330, via Brasil SDR, no signal tonight
from anonymous new missionary station, apparently still testing.
Manuel M?ndez, Lugo, Spain, agrees: ``New Colombian 4940 seems to be
out of air today --- COLOMBIA?, 4940, new religious station, checked
at 0445-0506, 21-09, no audio and no carrier detected`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** INDONESIA. Re my ``UNIDENTIFIED. 3325, Sept 20 at 1228, a
dekaminute after sunrise here, considerable S5-S7 carrier above S5
noise level, but no modible. Perhaps Ron Howard will have noted which
of Bougainville and Indonesia were active today, or both (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)`` --- Ron Howard replies:
``Hi Glenn, Sept 20 - Only VOI on 3325 today; at 1145, weak signal in
Chinese; at 1322, with "Indonesian Wonders," during their English
hour, but not very readable. The // 4749.95, via Cimanggis/Jakarta,
was not heard today due to CNR1 and Bangladesh QRM`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** ROMANIA. 11650, Sept 21 at 2125, travelog in Spanish with slight
accent, I guess Romanian, since amid an RRI transmission via
Tsiganeshti, and mentions Brasov; only S2-S3 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2052 monitoring: confirmed UT
Monday September 21 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct but with portable
antenna only, some deep fades.
Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 21 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, VG at Maine SDR,
also a few words apart via WRN webcast.
Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 21 at 0230 on WRMIs 5800 to SSE and 7780 to
NE, both equally VG S8-S9 at Rochester SDR.
Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 21 from 0300:26 on Area 51 (61?) via WBCQ
on new 6159.9 replacing 5130 as planned. I had started monitoring
6159.9 via Rochester remote at 0157 when JL was VG S8-S9; but by 0255
it had faded to JBA, at first thought off. So move to another SDR at
further skip distance, Alexandria VA, holding up to S9+25. By 0315 it
has faded there to S9 and noisy, so try the OKC SDR: only S6; then I
try the Edinburgh, Indiana one: better S8, AM Synch shows +36.8 Hz
carrier above tuned to 6159.90. At 0332 shortly after WOR has finished
and HRI has started, I tune in direct at S9/+10, and measure it at
6159.929. In any event 6 MHz band reception at this distance from
Maine is generally superior to 5 MHz, quite aside from any difference
in outpower there may well be. But 6 MHz also loses closer-in coverage
as the skip distance lengthens into the night.
Also confirmed UT Mon Sept 21 at 0330 on WRMI 9955: no good at Bonaire
or Rochester SDRs, JBA in Maine with pulse jamming also audible;
direct to here at 0336, however, is F-G S7-S8 with jamming hardly
audible.
Also confirmed Monday Sept 21 at 1801 on IRRS 7290 Bulgaria; recorded
via UTwente for later checking, so no timings to the second. Usual
open carrier came alive circa 1759 with tail of `Off the Hook` urging
pledges to WBAI, the Pacifica New York station. That`s a good leftish
media show I hadn`t heard in years and had no idea it would be on IRRS
for less than a minute. It`s on the WBAI skedgrid
https://www.wbai.org/schedule/
Wednesday Sept 23 at 7-8 pm EDT = 23-24 UT; but not on the incomplete?
program roster or podcast list. But it is here:
https://www.wbai.org/program/?program=76
leading to here:
https://www.2600.com/offthehook/
1800, quick sign-on by IRRS falsely claiming this is USB reduced
carrier, and three FSN headlines.
As for WOR from 1801, usual annoying splash from plus/minus 10 kHz
stations, even on medium bandwidth AMSynch; and still no 7291 warble.
Spotchex of recording find it generally OK and not truncated at the
end 1830, except circa 1817 bad sticking and stuttering. Since there
was complete silence interspersed, I hope this was an internet problem
out of, rather than into, UTwente. I can never be certain that every
WOR airing go out unscathed unless I listen live to every minute of
every one of them, a bit much. Thus I appreciate knowing from anyone
who happen to hear a problem. Next:
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE
0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 5800 to SSE [hope not chopped after 20 mins.]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

David Wilson near Salt Lake city notes no KTNN signal at his location and
none here in Laramie WY either, where it?s usually dominant
It?s a mush of signals here with CHQR leading the pack. david notes KGSV

** COLOMBIA? 4940, Sept 22 at various chex 0056/0400 on TWR Bonaire SDR, no
signal
again tonight from anonymous missionary station (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 9865, Sept 21 at 2341, Asian? music, S7-S6 with flutter
up/down in
strength and also sidewise in frequency, i.e. Doppler from near trans-polar
path. Could
AIR Vividh Bharati service be back? No, it`s CRI Chinese via Urumqi, land of
Chicom
imperialist brainwashing of native Uyghurs, scheduled this hour, and Bengaluru
not
until later if at all.
[non]. 7295, Sept 21 at 2355 YL song, then Chinese announcement over, S8/S9+10,
and by
golly it`s // 9865. This too is CRI but via MALI just about to end its
broadcast day
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 5009.923, Sept 22 at 0241, JBA carrier, no doubt RNM always
off-minus,
now that WRMI has finished with 5010 at 0230* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4000-USB, Sept 22 at 0005, AAR5ED calling AAR5EZ, in a MARS net on a
frequency barely outside the ham band as long as there is no LSB like the hams.
I
suppose a ham could really use 4000-LSB. More traffic and weak contacts follow,
lingo
like ``wilco``. Googling on call AAR5EZ, I get no significant hits; on AAR5ED I
get
nine, two of which lead to my own significant previous log of *2017y*:
``5394.5-USB, Feb 23 at 1351, MARS net with abbr`d calls 5AP, 5BR, 5PM/T, and
finally
a full call AAR5ED but unheard (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 8764-USB, Sept 21 at 2344, Tropical Depression Beta marine weather
info, but
you better know your geographic co?rdinates to make any sense of it. Almost the
only
voice to be heard in this entire MHz. EiBi shows this is NMG, USCG New Orleans
until
2350.
8502-USB, Sept 21 at 2349, marine weather for Bahamas, North Atlantic
co?rdinates, but
exactly same synthom voice as on 8764, to which I compare it -- by golly, they
are //
within a reverb or maybe less with different DSP on two receivers, also NMG? No
this
one is NMN, USCG Chesapeake VA, also until 2350, now both stations re Atlantic.
I
didn`t realize different USCG sites were linked for simulcasts, as each would
have its
own prime coverage area. 8502 is slightly weaker, S9+10 vs 8764 at S9+20; and
both
with some overmodulation distortion (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2052 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday September 22 at
0100 on
WRMI 7780, VG S9+20 at Virginia SDR; earlier check direct at 0050 was S8/+10.
Also confirmed UT Tue Sept 22 at 0330 on WRMI 5800, VG S9+20 at Bonaire; I
listen to
whole thing in background and it is not interrupted at 0350 like happened last
week.
Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE
