** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` check of WBCQs, UT Sat Jan 20 at 0055 into NH
SDR: 3265+ OFF; 5130.304 `ATATT` S8/9+10; 6159.932 TOMBS S9/+10;
7489.970 FKB S9/+10; 9330.00 WLCR Portuguese S9+10/28. Then at 0100 on
7490-: other music and TimTron announces this episode originally aired
on Dec 1, 2023; then `WTO` theme and into rerun of UT Dec 2 which I
already reported at the time. Never mind (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 15825, Jan 19 at 1614, WWCR-1 is the SSOB, S9+25/35 with
sporadic E boost, slightly distorted, squealing, and splashing some 30
kHz either side. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1218.1 approx., Jan 19 at 0720 UT, weak carrier hetting
1220.0 stations; nothing this low at mwoffsets --- same as logged Dec
14, 2023 at 0751 in previous report. How about some help, others
checking for this? NRC AM Log shows there are 41 UStations on ``1220``
- with peanut power at night vs 50 kW WHKW Cleveland; and two 10 kW
Canadians aiming north. No biggies in USA west of Ohio, 1220 rather
owned by XEB CDMX, allegedly 100/100 kW, 24h but never heard. 1220
sounds like a graveyard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 8992 USB, Jan 19 at 1627, US military alfanumeric crypto
exercise, S9, all fonetik with self-imposed background noise for
effect. Repeating several times: ``ASWHLZ Stand By``. Then ``message
follows``, starts with same sextet, easily copied fully:
``ASWHJZORWNBKSYXR6RH7E7KSQ8X4SG - I say again ---`` - if there be any
errors, from my scribble confusing Y with 4 or S with 5. EiBi calls
8992 ``US Air Force Messages``, also on 4724, 11175, 15016 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 13800 USB, Jan 19 at 1618, weak 2-way seems in Spanish,
