RECEPTION IN S?O BERNARDO SP, SOUTHEAST BRAZIL #416
November 5, 2025
Receivers + antennas used: KiwiSDR (S?o Bernardo SP) + Magnetic Loop Antenna //
Icom IC-R75 + AOR LA-400 Magnetic Loop Antenna (Indoor) // IC-R8500 + MFJ-1621
Portable Antenna (Indoor) // Tecsun S-2000, Kenwood R-1000 + Horizontal Wire 20
m Antenna + Headphones.
** A few days ago my Icom IC-R75 received a UT-106 DSP UNIT device. What a
difference in sound quality! With the use of a good headphone, it allowed to
hear and understand stations that were previously overwhelmed by the harmful
electrical noise of an urban area. Problem solved! See the reception report
below.
Sequence of information (below): Country, frequency, station, transmitter /
relay site, language, target area, time/UTC, details heard, received signal /
any additional data.

** BRAZIL. 28500 USB, Nov 5 at 2310, PU3RDR calling CQ DX in English.
QRZ.com: ``PU3RDR Brazil flag Brazil, Ruan Guilherme "Ruan" Da Rosa,
Rua Adolfo Lutz, 50, Novo Hamburgo, RS 93540190, Brazil`` -- several
other S American phones on 10m but hardly any N American beacons
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880 S9+10/20 direct of dead air or is it JBM? Like 15140
S9+20/25 with squeal, Nov 5 at 2048, RHC English from 2000 not to be
heard, other possible frequencies not even on. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15140, Nov 5 at 2316, RHC still on here in dead air with
squeal, S9+30/40; and on 13780, S9+10/20 undermod Spanish, no other
known frequencies. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)?
** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, Nov 5 at 2320, pirate music S9+. These say
it`s WDOG:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,153285.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 27225 USB, Nov 5 at 2301, artificial voice reading
text, press or maybe WH press release about Trump`s threats against
Nigeria. Lots of skip on CB but no QRM or fading on this channel so
maybe nearby. Amounts to an unidentified pirate broadcast (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1680 kHz, Nov 5 at 2020 UT, Virtual DJ Radio presumed,
audible at ground zero in Enid but weaker than usual vs the noise
level (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 9690, Wed Nov 5 at 2300 still no signal from REE on N
American B25 frequency, and the others are all way too weak direct:
12030, 17715, 17755.? At 2320 I check 12030 into Kuwait SDR where it`s
S9+20/25 -- but in Spanish! Not the token English hour once a week
supposedly Wednesdays at 2300. Something`s nullified at Noblejas, or
missing in Madrid (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY [and non]. 5960.002, Nov 5 at 2258, S9+10/20 but JBA signal
direct, assumed VOT not off the air to N America. At 2342 into
UTwente, S9+30/40 songs, but really too close to .000 for VOT, so
China? No, at 2359 still on air with VOT IS, and 2400 getting the new
season off to a start, extraneous German opening, but chopped off at
2401.3* uncovering much weaker Chinese. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 293 MCW kHz, Nov 5 at 0726 UT, UI, 30-watt MDB at qUIncy IL,
atop FBY, 25 watts at FairBurY NE. Normally I hear only FBY (GLenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2319 monitoring: confirmed UT
Wednesday November 5 at 0030 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975, 6/S8
into Sligo, Ireland SDR, but in audible at too-close UTwente.
Also confirmed UT Wednesday November 5 at 0130 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20
into Knoxville SDR.?
Also confirmed Wednesday November 5 at 2043 the 2030 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 3975.002+, S7/S8 into UTwente and almost as good into Carlow,
Ireland SDR. As for 6160, inaudible at UTwente altho something is
there at -76 Hz; and at Carlow definitely something else, YL voice -
could it be WBCQ R. Angela already barely into barely Europe? Offset
fits. Romania might also be on 6160 until 2057.
Also confirmed Wednesday November 5 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -95 Hz =
7489.905 into NH SDR but may be slightly mis-calibrated. Gospel solo
chopped abruptly at 2100 for ID, then WOR. It seems the preceding
program never manages to wrap up cleanly by 2059.5. Next:
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1730 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160.
Thanks to James Gershman, K1JJJ, Warwick RI for a contribution via
PayPal, in US funds but not necessarily, to woradio at yahoo.com --
and says, ``with continuing thanks for your ever-informative
program``
One may also contribute by MO or check on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser,
P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9955, Wed Nov 5 at 1148 as I happen to awaken, checking
whether this WRMI be on the air yet? No. Prop OK as 9395 is audible.
But by 1158 there is music, and 1200 right into R. Prague
International relay in English, without ID or s/on. So also implies
the 1130 Sunday broadcast of WOR would not be on SW 9955 either, tho
differences possible on weekends. System B grid shows merely WRN from
1200 M-F. WRN A25 sked does not show Prague at 1100, rather NHK which
would now have shifted a hour later, so revised B25 WRN sked very much
needed. This page still leads to A25 info only, and you can`t just
change A to B:
https://www.encompass.tv/solutions/radio/world-radio-network/network-schedules/
Prague was then scheduled daily at 0000, 0500, 0830, 1430 and M-F 1630
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
