All times and dates strictly UT [4 hours ahead of `ELT` during EDT; when
changing times one must also change the dates for events in the 00-04 UT period
to the previous date by ELT].
Rx: mostly DX-398 with internal antenna only or PL-880; NRD-545 with ALA-330S
inside E-W or inside randomwire N-S; Nissan stock caradio as specified; IC-R75
with E-W longwire; FRG-7 with NW-SE shortwire
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

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and
publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of
USA, unidentified [if any], separated by ======= Within each, they are in
frequency order
** U S A. 1030, March 25 at 0121 UT, gospel huxter from N/S, not nice: ``may
the Lord curse and abandon you``, heavy SAH of 3.7 Hz with algo. 0129 UT ads
for Mirador in Corpus Christi, and mergegospel.com; 0131.5 goes silent, or
rather to the open carrier/dead air plus hum surges up as I have been hearing
for the last three nights hours afterwards, as this 50 kW daytimer fails to
turn off transmitter at sunset! But almost silences the STL. Nor did they ID or
say good-night, or anything. The same thing was happening Oct 4-11, 2012, as
reported extensively in DXLDs:

** U S A. 1380, March 26 at 0320 UT, Spanish hymn in ranchera style, loops
SSE/NNW; 0321 UT live DJ outros as ``Desde el Cielo Descendió`` (he came down
from heaven), takes request calls from pious ``hermanas`` to 713-589-1460, ID
in passing ``Radio Aleluya, buenas noches``, 10:22 TC. It`s KRCM Shenandoah TX
relaying KMIC 1590; dominant signal and obviously still on 22 kW day power
instead of 43 watts night. Like so many gospel huxters, they think they are
``above the law`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1530, March 25 at 0105 UT, C&W segués from NW/SE, good signal,
presumed KQSC Colorado Springs CO, which is ND, 15 kW day, 15 watts night, and
1 kW critical hours. Well, it`s now ``night`` after 0100 UT in March (0130 UT
in April). As in DXLDs 15-44 and 15-45, it revived on Oct 23 initially with
classical music, but now it`s ``Mountain Country`` // 107.3 FM:

** U S A. 1680, March 25 at 0100 UT, gumbo ad, and sung ad for WCK Foundation
Repair, exactly the same pair I heard March 20 at 0144-0146 UT, from KRJO
Monroe LA during a baseballgame (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1680, UT Sat March 26 at 0325 UT, LSU Tiger baseball game vs Texas
A&M, with ``charge`` trumpet tune (isn`t that more apropos for football?): KRJO
Monroe LA, soon found to be // 1130 KWKH Shreveport with slight echo; and at
0328 UT same game also on 870 WWL New Orleans, ``LSU Sports Radio Network``,
but during ad break not //; or when game coverage resumes I find that WWL is
running 14 seconds behind the others (so a quick bet could pay off against
someone cluelessly listening to the delay). Now, why does this need to be on
three `big` stations? Any listener to KWKH or KRJO could also be hearing it on
WWL (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1690, March 25 at 0059 UT, ``Denver`s Money Talk 16-90 AM`` non-IDs
twice until signal drops off at 0059.4* UT without any call letters being
heard. It`s now Salem`s KDMT Arvada CO, 10/1 kW U1, and 0100 UT is indeed
official FCC sunset time for March (April: 0145 UT). Call changed from KDDZ
(Disney) on December 8, 2015 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
===========
UNIDENTIFIED. 1500, March 26 at 0319 UT, the warbling spurs slightly above and
below the frequency are again/still audible, especially with KSTP nulled.
Previous monitoring led to one of the minor stations in the MO/IL/KY area, but
AFAIK no one has confirmed which one (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
