** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, August 10 at 0651 UT, ND beacon SW in
StillWater is JBA; had not been able to reconfirm it lately. All
depends on S/N, how much noise remains, and noise-blanking.
Also a JBA carrier on 267 but no ID copiable. Surely HET in HenryEtTa,
25 watts as heard before and the only 267 currently listed (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, Aug 10 at 2200, UTwente is getting a carrier with no
audio, but off around 2202*, and no come back. Not on alternate goofs
9875 nor 11795. So much for VOT English today; something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2255 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Saturday August 10 at 0330 ex-0400 on WTWW 5085. I was listening at
0300 and heard WOR start to play for a few seconds, but then cut to an
hour of harmonious gospel music; no WOR at 0330, and chopped off the
air at 0357* before WOR could appear at previous time. Evidently
George`s timechange was not implemented by Bob Biermann, who later
told me that would not be convenient. The ``attack`` on George may
have contributed to the lack of co?rdination. Who knows what may
happen next week? Then I hear from George on the phone Aug 10 around
1840 UT. He`s hurting but able to keep running WTWW. Hopes to get the
other transmitter going next week with separate programming; he told
me previously, 9930 daytime, 5910 or 5920 nighttime, not 5830. 9475 on
the air again normally at 2235 Aug 10, anticipating WOR at 2300.
Confirmed Saturday August 10 at 0950 the 0930 on WRMI 9455, S9+20/25
direct.
Confirmed Saturday August 10 at 1450 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 6160.000+, S7/S9 and noisy into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday August 10 at 1600 on WRN North America
stream.
Also confirmed Saturday August 10 at 1734 the 1730 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 3975.002- at S8/S9, and 6160.000+, S9+5 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday August 10 at 2017 about 4 minutes into so
started late circa 2013 the 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+16 into
nearby SDR. Next:

** U S A. Latest on the WTWW situation: see WORLD OF RADIO report
UNIDENTIFIED. 890 kHz, Aug 10 at 0430, the Fuerteventura, Canary
Islands SDR is getting a JBA signal here hetting 891 Algeria - the
reverse of what I hear in OK. 890 has to be from the Americas, perhaps
the 200? kW Cuban, or the closest Brazilian, 20/10 kW R. Tamandar? in
Olinda, Pernambuco, ZYI772. Would you believe that mwlist does not
specify the STATE of each ZY entry? It`s a huge country and that would
be like eliminating states from USA listings - the most informed
American would never be able to know the state for every little town
with a radio station - and many town names are duplicated in several
states. So I had to look in WRTH 2024 which does show the states. BTW,
Tamandar? sounds familiar: was it also on SW long ago? I had been
checking this remote for TWR Benin, a weak signal on 1566, and not
much on 1476.
As to the het from 891 I hear against 890 WLS, presumably Algeria,
note this at almost the same time today:
https://groups.io/g/IRCA/topic/107820942
``889 & 891, 4:23am #42486 -- When there's a 1 kHz heterodyne against
890 the usual guess is 891 Algeria. This may not always be the case.
See if there is also a carrier present on the low side at
approximately 889. The 889/891 pair, as illustrated below, is most
likely from a Progreso Cuba outlet. Inline image -- 890 on the plot is
R. Progreso Cuba dominant. Usual crummy audio.
Plot from PEI SDR screen a few minutes ago, ~0400 UTC.
Mark Connelly, WA1ION | South Yarmouth, MA, USA | FN41vq``
Not now nor ever so far have I noticed anything on 889, but shall be
on lookout for it. Then at 0625 Aug 10 direct with the DX-398 I get an
891 bearing of NE rather than SE (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VENEZUELA. 4940, Aug 10 at 0637, JBA signal here, always presumed
to be Estaci?n 4940 or Onda Corta 4940, thought to transmit from Apure
area in southern Venez. Most nights this late there is no signal
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
