BRAZIL. 9665.13, Feb 11 at 0728, S3/S5 music, so R. Voz Mission?ria
reactivated after maintenance, but still can`t accuratize frequencing.
Other reports this date:
[WOR] R. Voz Mission?ria back on 9665 kHz --- Following reports that
Radio Voz Mission?ria has been absent from 9665 kHz & 5940 kHz for a
few weeks (heard only on 11750 kHz) I happened upon them tonight on
9665 kHz, which appears reactivated. Still no signal on 5940 kHz.
Listening direct in Central Florida on a Tecsun PL-880 receiver, long
wire antenna - fair to good reception. Confirmed parallel to 11750 kHz
and also confirmed on Brazilian KiwiSDR receivers. All the best, John
VORW Jurasek, Central Florida`` 0607 UT
``Thanks, John! Very strong into Masset, BC on 9665.130 now at 0615
UTC. Nice to have them back, although they do interfere with Channel
292 on 9670! 73, Walt`` Salmaniw
``Some today's band scanning for Brazilian stations, RVB: 5940 not
heard in both Pardinho no Sao Paolo [SP after] Usually a 40+dB SNR
9665.11 with the rest signal of -56 dbm in SP, 30 in Pardinho 45+ in
Goi?nia
11750 in both Pardinho and SP with nearly no signal 20 dbm carrier
only at 0700 clear in Goi?nia with -65dbm or ca 40db SNR
Zacharias Liangas``
9665 Voz Mission?ria, back on the air -- Hello Glenn, 9665 kHz Voz
Mission?ria, Camboriu SC, Brazil, is back on the air. I'm not sure if
it's permanent, or if what's being transmitted is still a provisional
technical analysis. 11750 on the air. 5940 still silent. It's still under
announced maintenance. Rudolf Grimm`` at 1322 UT.

** CUBA [and non]. 870, Feb 12 at 0734 UT, wobbler vs very little
signal from WWL, which if at full 50 kW blast would easily overcome
it, like WHO can on 1040 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 970, Feb 12 at 0736 UT, break in Mexmx at tune-in, ``Usted
y La Jota Mejicana, 9-70``, i.e. XEJ, Ciudad Ju?rez. The usual one on
970 rather that flagship of R. F?rmula, XERFR CDMX which is twice as
far. Note to editors: please do not ``correct`` my spelling. Mexico
with a J is an alternative, and certainly fits with branding of this
station (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Feb 12 at 2257, into Maryland SDR: 12030 off, 9690
S9+15/25, 17715 S5/S7, 17755 inaudible; 2300 token English from SNR,
preview topic to be about World Radio Day = Feb 13, the 1946 date when
UN Radio began. Interview about that starts after the news at 2305.
With Javier S?nchez, Spain`s rep to World DAB+ organisation. Radio
survived the advent of color TV, new challenges now, how can it remain
relevant? Radios are hard to find in new cars, but they do have
screens. FM doesn`t cut it, nor plain DAB. Now DAB+ provides stuff to
see on screens, like artists and song titles, emergency info.
(Strangely, no interest in USA for DAB/+ and guess what, RDS on plain
old FM can also provide text info.)
Unfortunately, at 2313, DOUBLE AUDIO starts, equal level about 3 words
apart!!! I`m still listening via Maryland SDR, its fault? NO! Same
thing direct, and on 17715. Tuneout, unlistenable! Something`s messed
up in Madrid, or nonsensical at Noblejas. Spot check at 2320, still
so; and at 2325 when the separation seems more than three words, but
back to single audio in wrapup after interview. What am embarrassment
for them. I wonder how the podcast will sound/resound (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** U S A. 407 MCW kHz, Feb 12 at 0729 UT, no signal from HRU, ND
beacon which used to be regular, day and night; had not been hearing
it for a few weeks, off? 25 watts at HeRington KS; RNA list says last
logged: 2024-12-29. Distance: 266 km = 165 stmi (Glenn Hauser, Enid
OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2281 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard?s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.
WRMI, USA, World of Radio #2281, 9395 kHz, below S7 signal, changeable
reception, 0030, 0042, 0059, (45343), February 12 UTC 2025 [Wed]
(Lemke, Richard -AB)``
Confirmed UT Wednesday February 12 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/30 into
Georgia SDR.
Also confirmed UT Wednesday February 12 from 0031 on SW Radio,
Germany, 3975.003+, S8/S9 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Wednesday February 12 at 2031 on SW Radio, Germany,
3975.002+, S7/S9 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Wednesday February 12 at 2200 on WBCQ, 7490 -74 Hz =
7489.926, S7/9+5 into Maryland SDR. Next:
2030 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975;
2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;

P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Unheard on Feb 11, nor earlier on UT Feb 12, but by 0708
I have mystery carrier weakly about 810.56. This time I try to DF it
with the D808, and get roughly 100/280 degrees, i.e. slightly
clockwise from E/W - that would eliminate Latin America, Bahamas, but
inside US or possibly West Africa, SW Pacific. Did anyone else get a
bearing on it?
Someone suggested it could be Tokyo, but that would be pretty far off
my DF. And at 17 UT, Tokyo SDR has FEN right on frequency. In next few
minutes I check several SDRs in SC, GA, AL, MS and TN, and if any
signal on 810, none way off. My initial log of this at 0440 UT Feb 10,
would be too early for anything from E Asia or Pacific. This not
necessarily would have to come from any known 810 station (Glenn
Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)
