All times and dates strictly UT [4 hours ahead of `ELT`]. Rx: mostly DX-398 or
PL-880 with internal antenna only; or Sony SRF-59 as specified; Nissan stock
caradio as specified; FRG-7 with E/W longwire as specified
These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also
VHF/UHF, sometimes, utility, ham,
which may be found in several archives without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser
And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and
publications

These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of
USA, unidentified, separated by ======= Within each, they are in frequency order
** U S A. 690, May 14 at 0557 UT, open carrier presumed KGGF Coffeyville KS as
the DF fits, not really off following their ``sign-off`` shortly after 0500
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 910, May 9 at 0559 UT amid the jumble, instead of Miamuh OK, I am
hearing a promo/PSA for a university in Roswell (an ENMU campus?), KBIM radio
mentioned, then full ID as KBIM 910 and FM xx.7, into ABC News. The original
KBIM-FM was 94.9 and it got out well by tropo to the east, but I suppose they
were divorced long ago. Now NRC AM Log shows the FM translator of 910 is on
93.7, K229BV, and 910 is only 500 watts at night with pattern a circle tangent
south, no good for us; yet KVIS` pattern is a tight figure-8 toward Enid.
Something seems amiss here with one or both, or just a propagational fluke
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1510-, May 9 at 0532, ESPN Radio is dominant, looping NE/SW, and
about 5 seconds ahead of ESPN on 1500 KSTP. This is obviously KCTE Independence
MO (circa Kansas City), 15 kW *daytimer* cheating yet *again*, *and*, *always*
off-frequency far enough to cause an audible heterodyne. Poor WLAC doesn`t have
a chance, only as a carrier to het. (And then there was another 1510 daytimer
logged a few nights ago around midnite, WQQW circa St Louis, but not tonite).
Who cares? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
==============
UNIDENTIFIED. 960, May 14 at 0502 UT during KGWA Enid Fox-hole, among the sigs
audible with KGWA hummy carrier nulled as much as possible, is one playing
``Let It Be`` instrumentally. I have heard this more than once during the hole,
so it may be a midnite tradition at some station, possibly musical WABG
Greenwood MS, tho it`s nominally Blues format. Or a (pseudo)-Catholic station?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 1120, May 15 at 0605 UT, romantic music in Spanish with
KMOX easily nulled, otherwise making SAH of 5 Hz. Seems to alternate slow tunes
with upbeat banda ones, segués, and fades during announcements. 0613 UT, ``La
Nueva 11-20 AM``; next break a partial phone number (for requests?) -5100. I
could not detect any certain religious overtones, tho some romantic-sounding
tunes have lyrix that are axually lovesongs to Jesus.
So is it KEOR Catoosa/Tulsa (site really Sperry where we visited it), a.k.a.
Radio Victoria, daytimer at night? The KMOX null to the SE is best for this,
which is slightly south of east.
Or is it KTXW, Manor/Austin TX, new station from the south with 155 watts at
night, which had been Spanish, but per a report in radio-insight.com was to
change format May 12 to English religion, formerly on KLGO 1490? Is this
confirmed around Austin?
Or neither? Anything happening with the ``silent as of Oct 2002`` (per NRC AM
Log 2013) 250-watt daytimer, KLIM in Limón CO? Unlikely it`s a Mexican, as
there are none in the north/east.
May 15 from 1650 to 1702 UT, I monitor by groundwave KEOR; for enough signal I
have to use the caradio and drive around the block to find a quiet enough spot
amid the neighborhood noise level. Mostly music which may be partly secular,
one song about ``ruiseñor`` = nightingale, or were they saying ``Jesú-señor``?
But after a 1656 UT ID as ``Radio Victoria, 11-20 --- esperanza``, definitely
praise music with those key-shifts upward; 1701 UT ToH ID as ``Radio Victoria,
KEOR, 11-20 AM, Tulsa, Oclajoma`` --- everything including the call letters
pronounced only in Spanish; ads, and into talk show `Conflictos del Corazón`
