I'm getting extra batteries,extra audio cables (to go between the recorder
and the radio), another radio, and another recorder. Oh and some hot hands
hand warmers. Also have some extra gloves and hats ordered too.. getting
prepped for winter dxing well ahead of time!
THe hand warmers are as much for my gloves as they are for my digital
recorder... AA batteries dont last long during continuous use in extreme
cold

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Aug 4 at 1434, LRA36 on again for a
Wednesday if not Saturday broadcast; S4-S6 via Pardinho, Brasil SDR.
Usual mix of songs, frequent canned IDs, brief talx. 1434 music and
ID; [pausa para desayuno m?o], 1514 weather; 1516 Ant?rtida song; 1521
another song; 1538 multi-lingual greetings/IDs including English. 1540
as if ``sign-on``, today`s weather briefly, ``nublado, nevado`` =
cloudy and snowy, maximum -3 degrees, couldn`t copy the minimum;
contact info including phone, e-mail; songs; 1551, 1554 IDs; 1602 ID
and brief Olympic news [I doubt any Antarcticans compete; but how
about winter?]; 1614 ID, music; 1617 & 1622 ID; talk about something
in 1971y with G.C. 1639 ID; 1649 weather again; 1651 Anta. song; 1654
program ID as `El Lejano Sur` Wed at 11-13 local, no mention of Sat
repeat, SW and FM frequencies, G.C. of studios, staff credits, fade-up
Anta. song again, but not closing down yet, into another song past
1700; 1703 ID and multi-lang greet including English, German,
Russian/Korean and into vamp music loop. Today it keeps going on and
on: several minutes later, ``blanco, hielo y m?s hielo``, says it all
about the landscape; 1713 rock song and after that almost continuous
rock music, 1735, 1805, 1855, 1919 still going when I finally quit
checking (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CONGO. 6115, Aug 4 at 0613, JBA carrier presumed R. Congo (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 7215, 7165 and 7130, August 4 at 0308, pulse jamming peaking
on only these frequencies in 40m hamband, vs absolutely no one trying
to QSO on them. Bulletin! Hams have the flexibility to QSY anywhere
inband when necessary, so Cuban Commies need to jam ALL frequencies
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ERITREA. 7180 & 7140, Aug 4 at 0309, JBA AM carriers, the lower one
weaker, with some SSB QRhaM - obviously the two VOBME INTRUDERS at
best time of day to get them here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 93.5-FM, Aug 4 at 1956 UT, scanning caradio for sporadic E
DX as suggested by DXMAP, nothing showing even on lower `open`
frequencies, but here some Spanish occasionally overrides `My 93.5`
Pratt/Hutchinson KS, my fringe `local`. 2002, seems to be newscast or
at least talk format; 2007 another fadeup with timecheck as ``3 con
7`` so we know it`s CDT/EST, not Cuba which I hoped at first, rather
east/central M?xico. 2009 ads or PSAs with .mx websites, one for
vacuna gratuita, and back to interview, YL in studio, OM on phone. Not
// 1460 KZUE OK which is also Mexican-originated talk. 2012 mentions
``ac? en este estado de Guanajuato``. Fortunately small enough not
likely to have more than one 93.5, as listed:
XHNY-FM 93.5 IRAPUATO GTO MEX Spanish CONTEMPORARY HIT RADIO EXA FM
30.03 30.03 217.0 217.0 20-42-11 101-23-26 --- 1780 km = 1106 stmi
I do believe I have heard it before. Yes: July 22, 2019; June 23,
2015. `CHR` format implies rock music, even in English, but own
website indicates more diversity; dated more than a sesquiyear ago, an
incomplete program list, hardly a schedule, shows one starting M-F at
17 UT, unknown whether more than 3 hours long:
Nota de EXA FM:
https://exafm.com/irapuato/programas/general/ness-al-aire/
``NESS AL AIRE 15-01-2020 - Escucha a NESS de lunes a viernes con la
mejor m?sica y la informaci?n necesaria para continuar tu d?a a d?a.
El clima en el estado, lo ?ltimo en tecnolog?a y por su puesto las
notas que est?n dando de que hablar a nivel mundial en un solo
espacio, adem?s de invitados con temas de actualidad que pondr?n un
toque especial a cada d?a de la semana.
Lunes de deportes con Kike Cardoso.
Mi?rcoles de cine con Alberto Segovia.
Jueves de sexo con Ana Elisa Rosas.
Viernes de recomendaci?n literaria con el Padre Sergio Montoya.
Escucha de Lunes a Viernes en punto de las 12 del medio d?a.``
However from his portrait appears Ness is a guy, not a YL host; Exa is
also a national network/group so possibly the Guanajuato reference
came thru some other station. Only one in WTFDA DB with a news/talk
format is:
XHO-FM 93.5 MATAMOROS TAMPS MEX HD Spanish NEWS/TALK NOTIPAGE, L?DERES
EN NOTICIAS 3.0 3.0 39.0 39.0 25-52-47 97-30-15
As researched later. Back online at 2036, I check the XHNH stream, and
it does sound like the same talk show (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 515-MCW kHz, Aug 4 at 0619 UT, NDB PN at Ponca City is
gone again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 96.9, Aug 4 at 1859 UT, KQOB is back on already. I never
paid any attention to metered strength, but sounds like licensed 100
kW, and usual adjacent-channel bleed, so suspect they have got their
original Crescent site fixed already and won`t need the STA at KWPN
aux site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4096, August 4 at 0631 UT, JBA CW, too weak to copy, but
alternating with sweeps upward for about a minute at 0632, 0637. Must
be the ``DW`` beacon somewhere in the SW desert. I had been seeking
this since Art Peterson notified me June 17, but not until now has my
storm/line noise level descended to barely low enough:
``Glenn, The ?desert whooper? beacon on 4096 has changed its format.
Instead of alternating the CW with the whoops, it is now superimposed
on the whoops. CW format is now:
8 dits, BEACON LTMP 37 BAT 131, 8 DITS
Also, the temperature appears now to be in ?C instead of ?F, they
dropped the DW ID in favor of ?beacon,? and they have dropped having
an explicit decimal point on the battery voltage. Just thought you
would like to know. Still no idea where it is, but I get solid
reception at night here in grid CM87tw, SF Bay Area. 73, Art
Peterson``
Speaking of expressing temperature degrees, everyone else is wrong,
when referring to a *change* in temp, e.g. global warming. Degrees-F
or degrees-C means an axual temp. But when talking about a temp
*difference or change*, the terminology should be reversed, as in
F-degrees, or C-degrees. I learnt this in Physix 101 at Washington
University in 1963. Now journalists, e.g. Time magazine, and even
scientists just don`t get it. Just one example from Science News:
``Unbearably hot --- On June 29, the Pacific Northwest heat wave hit
its peak, setting new temperature records in Portland, Seattle and
Vancouver, and a new country-wide temperature record for Canada in
Lytton, British Columbia. This map shows how the temperature of the
air about 2 meters above the ground compares with the 2014?2020
average temperature for that same day. In some spots, it was a
whopping 20 degrees Celsius higher.``
I have copied the above to Science News feedback, and they promise to
read it, but no reply yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 940, Aug 4 at 0615, S9+30 signal with C2CAM, like a 50 kW
clear briefly, but then fades vs CCI. Presumably 5/1 kW KIXZ Amarillo
TX, only one of two C2C stations on 940 per last year`s NRC AM Log.
The other is also adjacently-stated, KSWM Aurora in SW Missouri, but
allegedly only 25 watts night. However, KIXZ night pattern supposed to
go NW, not ENE! while KSWM is ND.
https://www.coasttocoastam.com/stations/
Can be set to show all stations on one page, rather than state by
state, and indeed the only 940s currently are these two (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 97.3, August 4 at 1903, hunting for possible Es DX, I hit
upon a fadey fringer, plug for some 8/28 event; 1905 horse feed ad
with 620 area code; 1906 ``Continuous Country Q-97`` YL ID, thus:
KKJQ 97.3 GARDEN CITY KS COUNTRY Q 97 FM 100.0 100.0 244.0 244.0
37-46-48 100-27-36 2B62 KKJQ THE DAWG - (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
