21670 on 10+ Oct 18 with program in perfect English andmany ?random? IDs
?instead of the awaitedIndo program Signal in PL330 as 13/10 . I recorded this
after 1045 in this address
https://app.box.com/s/esb7lbenfdwm10yovm7x2itpyt5sr19o
and then played with the antenna connection startinginductively then using
alligator plug to get the highest signal at 34/15-25 inthe LCD screen. Antenna
is 26+6 m wire lead to radio
The most used iD was ?the heart of ???? with Star FMalso heard At 2322 shift

3945kHz, R. Vanuatu, Vanuatu, Port Vila; 13/10, 0835 ? 0838 music. Very poor
signal, it?s been a while since i heard anything decent on this frequency
(LOB-B).
https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/ocqiP
7290kHz, R. RRI Nabire Pro 1, Indonesia; 18/10, 0850 ? 0904 Maghrib (sunset)
Islamic call-to-prayer as Ron Howard mentions in his log of 18/10 . Poor but
better than usual, (most days this signal does not arrive here) progressive
degradation (LOB-B).
In this recording there is some noise from the
recorder:https://soundcloud.app.goo.gl/xpN9e
7290kHz, R. RRI Nabire Pro 1, Indonesia; 19/10, 0846 ? 0905 seems pop song, at
08:47:30 short male announcements, then Maghrib (sunset) Islamic call-to-prayer
as Ron Howard mentions in his log of 18/10 until 08:58:30, soft music
selections. Better, clearer than 18/10 listening, poor to fair. A tree fell on
my dipole antena in afternoon of the day before but half remained on top, even
so it provided this very interesting listening (LOB-B).

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Wed Oct 19, tune-in via Argentine
remote at 1500 when LRA36 is already on with music pr?lude; 1503 usual
sign-on routine; 1503 themesong; 1507 recitation and song; 1512 ID
with ``nos une``, and finally live YLs, with program #26 of the
Esperanza Audaz season; staff names; it`s ``muy ventoso`` on this 19th
of October; temp minus 1 C, with a low of -10, snow, winds 93? kph,
partly cloudy; 1517 phone numbers and all other contact info; 1518
song; 1520 ID; 1521 This Week in History starting with Oct 17.
*Tomorrow* will be special program for the anniversary of LRA36, no
time heard but presumably also circa 15 UT Thu Oct 20. 1524 song; 1527
ID ``Radio Arc?ngel San Gabriel`` omitting ``Nacional``, ending with
``su compa??a``. Then about Brown Base, from 1949/50, now named for
Almirante Brown, changed name in 1990. Seldom says anything about that
base, but see Wikipedia:
``Brown Station (Spanish: Estaci?n Cient?fica Almirante Brown, or more
often Base Brown or Estaci?n Brown) is an Argentine Antarctic base and
scientific research station named after Admiral William Brown, the
father of the Argentine Navy. It is located on Sanavir?n Peninsula
along Paradise Harbor, Danco Coast, in Graham Land, Antarctic
Peninsula. As of 2014 Brown is one of 13 research bases in Antarctica
operated by Argentina.[2] From 1951 to 1984 it served as a permanent
base; since then it is open during the summer season only.[3]``
More chat I don`t follow much past 1540 with music background, 1545 ID
with frequencies, ``Nacional, la Radio P?blica``. 1555 again plug
birthday broadcast ma?ana; 1600 song; 1603 ID with staff again,
``Nacional, nos une``. 1605.5 dead air, off? Not quite, 1606 a bit
more music, then gone, no more heard past 1641. Was good signal,
modulation peaking S9.
PS: Here are details on the B-day special via the AER ForoDX list:
``Ma?ana Especial de LRA36 RADIO NACIONAL ARC?NGEL SAN GABRIEL por su
43 aniversario de 1430 a 1630 UTC 15476 USB. Fonte: Adri?n Korol
(Diretor da R?dio Nacional da Argentina e RAE Argentina ao Mundo) v?a
Antonio Avelino, del DXCSF -- Pedro Sedano, Madrid, Espa?a``
And Gary Pence, TX, who would rather DX it via N American remotes than
hear it clearly via S America, reports: ``It`s on, 1454z in song. When
listening to LU4AA SDR, has a noise floor of -104 dbm and their signal
was in the beginning S7, S8 or -92 to -82 dbm. When using the KFS SE
SDR Array at Half Moon Bay, CA, has a higher noise floor of S5 or
-97,-98 dbm and LRA36 was barely audible but signal never built up. I
tried the quieter omni antenna at KFS, which was -104 dbm but it
doesn't have the gain of the SE Array. So for right now LRA36 remains
fairly elusive to the USA KIWISDRs, but we will keep trying.
73, Gary`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5025, 5040, 6000, Oct 19 at 0417, all these Rebelde/RHC
frequencies are off. 6060 & 6165 English on. Something`s always wrong
at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** ETHIOPIA [and non]. 11560-11580, Oct 19 at 0406, sounds like DRM
noise but too wideband; amid at 11570 a weak carrier. EiBi explains:
``11570 0400-0500 ETH Dimtse Woyane TIG EAf /F-i = Issoudun site
11570 0400-0500 ETH Noise Jammer EAf`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KIRITIMATI [and non]. 846 kHz, Oct 19 at 0613, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati; only other 9/kHz splits: 855 and 1116, both likely Spain
synchros tho 1116 max power only 5 kW; 855, 50 kW. Note: there is a
lot more 10/kHz splash above 1200, so harder to detect any splits.
But Gary Pence reports; maybe was intermittent: ``846 khz Kiritimati
off No jba in Oahu. I almost forgot but I checked 846 at sunset and
around 0630z from Oahu SDR and I believe they were off last night.
Gary`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NEW ZEALAND. 9700, Wed Oct 19 at 0632, RNZP starting `Digital
Planet` with some interesting topix, qualifying as a Media program; as
usual, 9700 this hour is the SSOB, S9+20. Guess what: it`s really a
BBC programmme, and not even mentioned on the RNZ Pacific sked, only
as a RNZ National relay this hour:
https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/nights
``7:06 PM. Nights with Karyn Hay --- RNZ's weeknight programme of
entertainment and information; 10:00 PM. News at Ten``
but including, at least this week:
``7:30 [sic] Digital Planet --- It's estimated that 5.3 billion mobile
phones will become waste this year. Despite being packed with precious
metals like gold, silver and palladium and other recyclable parts most
will not be disposed of properly.
This mountain of e-waste (that if piled on top of each other would
reach 120 times higher than the International Space Station) is only
part of e-waste problem with other small consumer electronics such as
remotes, headphones and clocks.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** PANAMA [non]. 9955, Tue Oct 18 at 2228, tuning in WRMI early via
Maryland remote for WOR at 2230, tail end of `Antena DX` in Spanish,
or rather Portunhol, with DX report voiced by someone from DX Clube
Sem Fronteiras, with Portuguese hours of WLCR/WBCQ 9330, outdated?
Antena DX is produced monthly but allegedly aired weekly. This is
still the Sept edition as found later on their website, no October
yet. http://programasdx.com/antenadx.htm
V?ctor Guti?rrez produces it:

Martes 9.955 KHz 22:00 UTC
https://www.facebook.com/LaChispaEstereo/
Of course, 7780 has been off since Ian; 5985 was dropped months before
that. Another version shows 9455 at that time. Aoki shows some other
times: 0030 Day 4 = Wed, on 7490 = WBCQ, but not on WBCQ`s own sked at
any time; Wed 1300 on 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Oct 19 at 2200, token English to NAm from REE is
VP, unusable direct on this, let alone the other three frequencies,
15520, 11940, 11670. I`m not on computer to try for it via Maryland
remote, the usual workaround. B22 QSY to 9690 at 2300 M/W/F cannot
come soon enough (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830.002, Oct 19 at *2158, JBA carrier cuts on as at first
I am monitoring only on the DX-398 direct with shortwire clipon, so
presumed VOT trying to start English, but useless to deep North
America. I detect it only with BFO slightly offtuned LSB, avoiding the
RTTY on USB. By 2247 I check it via UTwente which provides the typical
+2 Hz offset, but even there it`s so weak it could have been
underChina instead. Reads S7/S9 max but hardly readable as may also be
undermodulated. At 2248 I can tell it is really VOT, YL in English.
Occasionally surges to brief readability, signal and/or modulation.
2253 sign-off and into IS; 2258 German ID, 2300 timesignal, and still
on air but unreadable at 2323, not a good prop day for such a bonus,
even unto Europe. Seems to cut off at 2327*. We expect B22 to make
usual switch to 5960 and both one real UT hour later; which can`t come
soon enough. It would then again be subject to collision with The
Mighty KBC should extra German surpass 0000 on a UT Sunday (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2160 monitoring: ``From: Richard

Also confirmed Tuesday October 18 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+8/12 into
Maryland SDR.
Also confirmed Wednesday October 19 at 2128 on WBCQ 7489.9v, JBA

these WRMI frequencies are OFF, including some that had been restored
post-Ian, leaving nothing but the 9s (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 17790, October 19 circa 1830, WRMI on NF ex-21525 with
Panam`s ``Radio Africa`` service of gospel huxters in English, S9+10,
much better than 13m usually was but could still be affected by
sporadic E. Remains to be heard what be `normal` for this to here. It
is almost at right angle from correct Africa ex-azimuth of 81, i.e.
160 degrees really for S America, considerably missing Africa, but
maybe some signal get in there. However at 1939 recheck it`s off; 2046
recheck, back on. Sked is 15-21 UT; a stopgap measure until/unless the
Af antenna can be repaired.
Latest update on FB circa 22 UT Oct 19:
``WRMI Radio Miami International 1h ? Here's the hurricane restoration
report for today (October 19) from WRMI. Our crew was completing work
on the transmission lines for 5850 kHz, when suddenly the transmission
fluid sprung a leak on one of our trucks, and it spilled onto the
catalytic converter causing the truck to catch on fire. Fortunately
our engineers were able to put out the fire quickly, so we hope there
is not much damage.
We used another truck to finish the transmission line work on 5850.
Then when we tried to turn on the transmitter, a compressor blew up on
a fan motor in the rear of the transmitter. (How many things can go
wrong in one day?) So tomorrow morning they will remove the blower and
replace it with another, which we understand is a fair amount of work.
But we will try to finish this tomorrow and put 5850 kHz on the air --
finally! Wish us luck tomorrow.
In the photo below, WRMI Facility Manager Pat Travers is finishing up
the transmission line work on 5850 kHz. Here's where you really need
to know what you're doing!`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 2097.3 CW, Oct 19 at 0622 UT, single-letter beacon A
every dekasecond, anywhere but Quartzsite AZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 90.1 FM, Oct 19 at 2010 UT, on caradio in Enid, KUCO FM
has CCI from another classical station in fall fundraising, mentions
whether or not to broadcast the Clinton Symphony Orchestra. Normally
such all-too-common QRM would be from KHCC Radio Kansas, Hutchinson,
but why would they mention such an orch? That brings to mind Clinton,
IOWA, where research shows there is one in that town on the
Mississippi, ergo, WOI-FM Ames IA? Outside its main coverage area but
IPR do have a ``Symphonies of Iowa`` program on Sunday afternoons.
However, I have not been able to correlate that with Clinton.
Strangely, the only 90.1 hit for Iowa in the WTFDA FM DB is for
WOI-FM, but with news/talk format on HD. What about classical format?
That is on the HD2 of 90.1 per this confusing map and attempt to
explain it all:
