** AUSTRALIA. 11825, May 14 at 1427, strong open carrier; 1429 music
sounds like Firedrake and off*. But must be Reach Beyond at end of
Burmese semihour; no reason for ChiCom jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** CHINA [non]. 15700, May 14 at 1515, CRI Plus English relay via CUBA
is still missing as it has been since at least May 4. About to
conclude it canceled. Not on 11880 either. How about all the others?
Not noticed any missing, but not checked thoroly. 9580 heard. Latest
HFCC shows La Habana relays thru the rest of A-21:
00-01 5990 & 15120 Spanish;
01-02 9580 English;

23-24 5990 English;
23-24 13650 Portuguese [Music fill only]
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6100, May 14 at 0620, RHC English check: this one is S9+20 of
dead air; 6000 & 5040 off; 6060 S7-S9 JBM or OCDA; only 6165 is VG
S9+10/20. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13700, May 14 at 1421, RHC Spanish only S8-S9 and
undermodulated, nor any spurblobs audible. These were last detected
weakly on April 25 & 27. Fixed? There have been dry spells before but

** U S A. 28244-CW, May 13 at 1808, looking for 10m beacons tnx to HF
sporadic E, find only one and JBA, WA6APQ, which is 30 watts from a
vertical in Long Beach CA. Reference recently updated:
https://www.qsl.net/wj5o/bcn.htm
>From his qrz.com page: ``WA6APQ USA flag USA
DEWEY MYERS, 2903 Monogram Ave, LONG BEACH, CA 90815 USA
The WA6APQ BEACON on 28.2440 MHz is located on a 330 foot hill (Signal
Hill) in Long Beach, California. Radio is a Motorola Mitrek consolette
base station, 30 watts, antenna is Antron 99 vertical. Code speed is
approx. 10 wpm and operates 24/7. Since 1993.
If you would like a beacon QSL card, send SASE or SAE with $1.00 (no
IRC's) or email for a printable QSL card. Include the standard (RST)
signal report, UTC time and date. Audio/Video and Youtube recordings
are welcome. Thank you for looking.``
I was about to send him a report, but email address is censored unless
you are a ham member, even tho 2-way contacts with beacons are
impossible! So much for that. It was on the verge of inaudibility, and
could copy only fragments, some letters of which may be incorrect: E E
E DE WA6APQ LO CH CA It kept fading at the last letter which I
thought was G, but this call in -Q matches the listing as I missed one
dah. I assume the others were part of LONG BEACH.
There was a little more non-beacon activity: a phone QSO on 28380-USB
at 1807; and at 1818 on 28400-USB KB5RJ# in Albuquerque? with a K9;
two stations often talking over each other. Not much skip sweeping
thru the CB; At 1816 on 25000, WWV JBA from CO, both NM and CO in the
500-mile range (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2086)

First broadcasts confirmed less than an hour after completion, UT Fri
May 14 at 0130 on WRMIs: 7780, S9 but noisy; 5850 S9+20/30/40 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7570, May 14 at 0626, WRMI-11 is finally back on air, with
what else? Dead Brother Scare. S9+40 since it`s the NW/315 degree
antenna aimed right at us across mid-America. By April 6, it had
vanished shortly after his QRT April 3, in reduxion of total Overkill
hours? Or was it tech problem? 7570 had however stayed on the WRMI
sked fortuitously dated April 2 and still so tho certainly modified
since then, if not totally uptodate: WRMI-11 7570: at 00-11 TOMBS,
11-14 SMTV, 14-16 Sat only additional TOMBS. I never got around to
checking what became of those SMTV hours: was she still on 7570, or
elsefrequencied? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV transmitter, but
without any local content whatsoever, the 3ABN and subnetworks
translator, also virtual 17, as of UT May 15 is off the air and has
been for three or four days, I meant to mention earlier. Not that I
ever would watch it and I daresay most Enidians are unaware of it, or
if they are, don`t know it`s our very own TV station. Before that it
had been operating without any apparent problems (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, May 14 at 2158, no signal from REE to N America just
before token English on Friday. Who knows whether it`s even on the air
or not, as propagation conditions have been very depressed. 15520 &
11940 are JBA carriers. The trouble with such a bold high frequency is
that on a good day it can work, but is very subject to exceeding the
MUF when conditions decline (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, May 14 at 2308, VOT is still on the air after poorly
audible English hour, now in German, because the sleepyrators at
Emirler, where something is always erroneous, failed to turn off the
transmitter, and German is next on the program feedline, maybe also
satcast and webcast. Surely it will cut off sometime during this hour?
NO!
9830, now checking via UTwente, a VG signal May 15 at 0015, now in
Brazuguese, YL talking from home judging by lo-fi audio, about the
Palestine situation, how it relate to Turkey; and still/again doing so
rechecked at 0054! But off the air by 0059 check. I expect the
Brazilians would appreciate a deliberate rather than accidental
broadcast for them. Otherwise there is *no* Portuguese scheduled at
any time from VOT on SW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2085 monitoring: Richard Lemke,
Alberta, confirms the Wed May 12 at 1030 on WRMI 5850.
WORLD OF RADIO 2086 monitoring: confirmed Friday May 14 from 2031:18
on IRRS via Italia-AM, 918 kHz, Villa Estense. Preceded by country
music, 2029 DJ outro ``EZ-come, EZ-go`` and says has time for 3 more
songs on `The Country Jamboree`. Oh, oh. But chopped off for IRRS ID
with the Milano PO Box they otherwise tell us not to use, before WOR
starts a bit late and plays to completion. Via Noale KiwiSDR nearby
where it now registers steady S9+25 instead of S9+18 so something has
changed; at receiver, or transmitter power boosted? And I wonder where
Country Jamboree originate.
NOT confirmed UT Sat May 15 at 0130 on WRMI 9395; instead rock music
continues. Jeff just granted us this new slot which started last week,
so I wonder if absence now be a mistake? Next:

** U S A. (7489.9+), UT Sat May 15 from 0000, WBCQ monitored only on
webcast for `AAAWWW`. Usual opening amenities including fiddling with
mikes, gushing over Angela`s beauty; first mostly discussion of COVID,
vaccinations, etc., with Angela`s usual heated denunciations even tho
she has been shot; people wearing masks freak her out since she can`t
stand to have anything on her own face, even makeup.
At 0019 he says 6160 is down so they are on 7490 only now. I don`t
even try to hear them on SW, but if I did, 6160 would have been
splashed by 6165 Cuba like previous nights. From Florida studio. At
0020 about how he repaired WWII-era equipment for radio surveillance
40-4000 MHz, and all the stuff that can be heard above 1 GHz. But says
he is ``the dumbest`` as he has to tell an antenna story: There is a
45-foot vertical master receiving antenna used to monitor WBCQ from ME
and anything else. Last year he knocked it with a pickup, but got it
back into position with a ratchet strap and a steel hook. Strangely,
reception has been unusually weak for six months; what could it be? He
just realized the hook was positioned so that it grounded the antenna!
Lesson: look for the simplest explanation first rather than
over-thinking it as an engineer, to which Angela heartily agrees.
By 0030 they are decrying computerization of cars, which will be
knocked out by EMP; instead restore pre-1970 cars with no computers,
all mechanical operation. This is a thing now, plus people with money
to burn building bunkers. Power sources? Need to use all possible
methods from fossil fuels to clean energy to nuclear fusion. At 0044
finally datestamp as 14 of May YOOL 2021.
Angela suggests making videos for YouTube of Allan working on
equipment, and he thinks it`s a good idea. Plugs Fair Radio Sales,
which still exists, as valuable source of ancient radio parts. News
item: WFAS 1230 in White Plains near Yonkers will be going all-digital
on May 24, a Come-you-luss station. Beginning of end for AM radio? In
his youth, WFAS was the station with school-closings info. John
Carver`s version:
``Tonight's show started on time on 7490, no signal on 6160. Allan and
Angela in the studio. Opening talk about the vaccine. Angela is
railing against the vaccine even though Allan talked her into taking
the shots. Allan announces at 0014 that the 6160 transmitter is down.
Then some talk about Allan's forty-five foot vertical antenna as his
house and the problems he's had with it and how he fixed it. Then some
talk about various forms of energy and how the country should handle
it. Allan also mentioned that Angela would be filming him repair some
old equipment and posting it on YouTube. A plug for Fair Radio Sales
and then into reading of emails at 0056. Closing prayer at 0059 and
program off at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 15618.2, May 14 at 2008, spur carrier with trace of
modulation, from WEWN 15610, thanks to HF sporadic E boost to S9 way
above its normal JBA level. There might be match on the low side,
15601.8, but not exactly, rather a weak amorphous blob. Also a
suspicious JBA carrier at 15532.1 but doesn`t compute as related. I
expect the plus/minus 8.2 kHz spurs are always there but normally
inaudible here due to weakness of fundamental.
BTW, contrary to some sporadic E also showing up on CB, the rest of
the SW range above 9 MHz is virtually vacant in depressed F2
propagation conditions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
