** CANADA [and non]. 351 MCW kHz, Jan 23 at 0747 UT, dash and YKQ, 500-watt ND beacon at Fort Rupert/Waskaganish, QC, at 51+/78- degrees N/W. Long time since last logged, March 19, 2023. RG on 350 at WRWA OKC remains gone so no problem there; but a little bit of LIttle Rock from 353 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 15760.00, Jan 23 at 1614, distorted Chinese at S8/9+5. Also // 13590 very distorted! S7/S9 with no stable carrier to detect; and // 13630 with OK modulation. At 1621, 11565 & 11670 non-distorted CNR1 jammers. 11775 at 1622, extremely distorted Chinese worst of all and splattering +/- 15. Aoki shows CNR1 jammer against SOH on 15760 but only until 1500; 13590 same until 1700; 11775 until 1730; 11670 against VOA, 11565 vs RFA. Jammer sites not known or guessed, but the extremely distorted ones likely from one site different from others. Deliberate? Makes jamming more ``effective``, but a stain upon ChiCom engineering quality for those not knowing such frequencies are really only to jam SOH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Jan 23 at 2115-2120, NO signal from R. Cairo in English sesquihour unto UTwente. Something`s egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 9490+, Jan 23 at 0346, S9/+10 of dead air with hum from TDF, again failing to turn it off at 0300 when RMI República finish. Something`s incompetent at ISSoudun (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11514.9, Jan 23 at 1621, S3/S4 JBA maybe music from pirate Hikari FM. I wonder if he has any listeners or reports from Japan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [non]. 5960, from the land of Armenian genocide denial, Jan 23 at 2300, no signal direct from VOT English to US, except some random noise; JBA carrier on possible overrun 9610. Checking UTwente at 2333, 5960 is nothing but Chinese from East Turkistan, std denunciation; while 9610.002 S6-S7 JBA in language not English. TWR New Delhi gets 9610 much better: must be the only thing listed now, CNR8 in Mongolian from Beijing site. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2226 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday January 23 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, S7/S9 into Georgia SDR. Also confirmed Tuesday January 23 at 1426 the 1400 on WRMI 9955, S8/S9 direct. Next: 0030 UT Wednesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1200 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1230 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB [previous #2225][SW suspended but still streamed?] 1500 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [unsked but reconfirmed Jan 3, 10, 17] 2030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW, 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0230 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 [not all SW Radio Gold times confirmed; may be testing] As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated. Thanks this week to Hank Blackwood, Dalton GA, for a contribution via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to: woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by money order or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, Jan 23 at 0348, WRMI in English discussion of US involvement in Latin America, `Freedom Synergy Radio`, pro-Taiwan, which is enough for Cuba to jam it, even tho not in Spanish, but WRMI is S9+10/20 atop the noise. 5800, Jan 23 at 0435, ham radio discussion vs jamming, must be the expelled from WTWW, and renamed `Legends`. Bits of that scattered evenings around the WRMI skedgrid, but supposedly not this hour on 5800, rather 5050 & 9455 only. In fact, 5800 not shown on any System after 0400! Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 12105, Jan 23 at 1624, S5/S8 open carrier: something about to sign on? No, still DA at 1631. Nothing in EiBi, but Aoki shows at 14-17 RFE/RL in Taj via Lampertheim, Germany. Tajik?? WRTH 2024 does not show that language anywhen from RFE/RL which is almost gone from SW; nor RFA nor various other USAGM substations. Aoki info may be outdated, like many more obvious entries. RFE/RL did emit Tajik in WRTH 2005 handily consulted. So what is this?
