** CUBA. 6100, July 26 at 0556, S9+10/20 of dead air in English from
RHC; 6165 and 5040 are off; 6060 DA with humbuzz; only 6000 remains,
wrapping up English at 0557 and no doubt about to go off. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, July 26 at 2318 and later, NO signal from RHC English
hour. A perfect excuse, besides ``something`s always wrong at RHC``
for my annual sarcastic Tribute to The Revolution: ``Patria o Suerte,
?Pensaremos!``. I am still awaiting visual proof of this slogan
scrawled on a surface anywhere on Cuba. Ahora m?s que nunca (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, July 27 at 0238, R. Rebelde with S9+20 of dead air.
Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. 4765 and 5040 are nominal
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Monday July 26, REE English with Justin Coe at 2211
resumes the `DX program` from a biweek ago, out-takes, as the original
recording ran way over, when he responded to a second listener, Alan
Roe in England. No, there was a not a farewell show for Alison Hughes,
as things have been rather hectic. She started in 1990, took a break
and came back 12/13 years ago. He will invite her back as a guest.
Lu?s Mart?n, head of the external service, also took early retirement
in February; and there is also a new head of the entire RTVE. Was
going to play some music for this Alan, Blas Pic?n of blues harmonica
who just appeared 11 July in Madrid. Boogie-woogie, plays at 2222 ``If
You`re Not Around``; 2226 also acknowledges reply from Rodney Johnson
thanking Coe for previously acknowledging his mail. Another showname
suggestion: ``REEDX``. [But it`s NOT a DX program; how about
``Spainal-bag``? Nah?] Starts playing another music for him but only
time for a semiminute of something about Chicago until timesignal, off
and away. Also, Justin doesn`t know who in the large organization is
sending out QSLs. Anyhow, so far our WOR iogroupies are batting 100%
as only subjects of the mailbag. Or belay that, silly ballgame
reference. I`m listening via Virginia remote, always better than
direct to deep North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, July 26 after Spain dispenses with English at 2230 I
tune the Virginia remote to VOT, sufficient but not as good. Mostly
music, but at 2237 the COVID PSA plays, still that ancient outdated
recording, ``vaccine yet to be found``; but if anyone believe that, it
may impel more cautious behaviour. Sign-off announcement at 2249 has
crosstalk from something, sounds like Brother Hystairical
expostulating, maybe remote receiver overload. IS plays; 2256 pause
and restart IS, one announcement in German before cutoff so not
another hour or two tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 326-MCW kHz, July 26 at 0612, 400-watt ND beacon MA at
Midland TX is JBA. Had not been able to hear any beyond KS/OK for
weeks in summer storm and local line noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2096 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
July 25 at 2000 on IRRS via AM Italia, into Padova SDR only S5.5 but
better SNR than the stronger closer signal into Noale. Still on about
over at 2028 so appears this time to have aired intact successfully.
NOT confirmed Sun July 25 at 2200 on WBCQ 6160-; instead, quick ID and
right back to TOMBS. But WOR *is* playing on the Area 51 webcast. I
notify Larry Will immediately, and he replies:
``Sorry Glenn, they are having a computer problem at the station so it
will be B.S. until 7PM tonight [23 UT]. Lw`` --- and at 0302 UT
Monday: ``I managed to get you an airing on 6160 at 0300 UTC Monday
7/26. Signal good here with a slightly unfortunate QRM from Cuba. Lw``
And at 0337: ``I managed to sneak in "Brother Stair's Way To Heaven"
by Blind Paul (Paul Shalbetter, host of the classic show "Pan Global
Wireless) after WOR 2096 before I switched the transmitter back to the
B.S. Signal very good here in Maryland with occasional and persistent
Cuba interference. Cheers, Lw``
Maybe we can stay at our old time of 0300 for better nighttime
propagation altho 6165 QubaRM is a problem then -- and Cuba was on
6165 long before WBCQ picked 6160. Checked on an east-coast remote,
WBCQ is stronger than RHC, vice versa out here. More below.
Also confirmed UT Monday July 26 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, VG direct.
Also confirmed UT Mon July 26 at 0130 on WRN webcast to N America.
Also confirmed UT Mon July 26 at 0230 on WRMIs: 7780 VG S9+10 to
Maryland remote, VG S9+5/15 to UTwente; 5800, S9+10 to Bonaire SDR.
Also confirmed UT Mon July 26 at 0309 the special time of 0300 on Area
51 via WBCQ 6160-; by 0327 VP here with 6165 Cuba ACI even on LSB
tuning. Next, not until Wednesday:
1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 3265+, 4790-, 6160-, 7490-, July 27 at 0239, all these WBCQs
are missing but 9329.784 is still on poorly with something in English.
Recheck at 0256, 4790, 6160 and 7490 are back on with TOMBS. Yes,
Blitzortung checked at 0300 shows an itty-bitty storm right around
Monticello. 3265 is apparently always off now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Re my FM DX report of a 100.3 mentioning Downtown Milwaukee,
is it WNCY Neenah-Menasha, or translator in Milwaukee?

WTFDA gg:
``WNCY is unlikely. It's solidly in the Appleton market (and might
possibly run Green Bay spots), not likely to be running Milwaukee ads.
Unless the Milwaukee event in question was Summerfest, which is of
regional interest. But it doesn't happen until September. I was in
Milwaukee last weekend & W262CJ has a pretty impressive signal``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Titans of TV: Farnsworth vs Sarnoff --- History Channel
tends to be too tabloid, but I watched this docu-drama on first airing
UT Monday July 26 at 0100-0200. Several repeats are scheduled.
``The Machines That Built America: ?Titans of Television? History, 9
pm EDT [0100-0203 UT] --- The latest take on the That Built America
franchise chronicles the 1930s feud between Philo Farnsworth, the
inventor of the television, and David Sarnoff, a ruthless RCA exec who
sought to buy the pioneer?s fledgling company and control the new
medium.`` says Channel Guide. Yes, it paints Sarnoff as a real SOB and
Farnsworth as a sad and not properly recognized victim. I guess we
would never see this version of history on NBC.
``The Machines That Built America THCHD - Sun, 7/25, 8:00 PM CDT 1 hr
3 min "Titans of Television" New, 7/25/2021, History, Industry
The rivalry between a merciless mogul and an unknown inventor triggers
a social change in which people turn to television for entertainment
instead of books, magazines or the theater as the two figures attempt
to outdo each other.`` CDT Repeats per Titan TV:
Sun, Aug 01 7:00 PM [UT Mon Aug 2 0000]
Mon, Aug 02 1:08 AM [UT Mon Aug 2 0608]
Wed, Aug 04 11:00 AM [UT Wed Aug 4 1600]

These are from the original eastern feed; there may also be 3?-hour
delayed western feeds. Maybe also on web? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4743, July 27 at 0236, JBA carrier vs CODAR (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 6982, July 27 at 0235, S9 open carrier with fading;
pirate testing? Nothing about it on HFU. Also JBA carrier 6974.9-AM
presumably Nowhere Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15705, July 26 at 1417, JBA signal. Neither Aoki nor
EiBi has anything anywhen on 15705; but HFCC as of July 17 for entire
A21 season shows: ``15705 1400 1500 43S,44S TRM 125 45 -30 217 1234567
280321 301021 D 13700 Cmn CLN AWR AWR 197 x219`` i.e. AWR in Chinese
via Trincomalee, SRI LANKA; maybe recently activated?
Or, but here`s another report of this from Dan Sheedy, CA, via Bob
Wilkner, NASWA: ``15705 unID 1417-30, 1435-1459* 19 July. Mostly quiet
Chinese chat with soft pop & piano background during some
announcements (website info, closing remarks), audio off 1430-35 with
carrier left on. Also heard roughly same times 18 July, but not heard
on 20 July during checks at 1415, 1433. This sounds "SOH-ish" with the
web info spelled out "xx O H..", not listed in Aoki/EiBi`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
