All times and dates strictly UT [5 hours
ahead of `ELT` during EST; when changing times one must also
change the dates for events in the 00-05 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 is no longer in use.
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
in DX LISTENING DIGEST:

All my MW DX reports starting August
2011 are archived in this forum with open access:

These logs are in four sections, Canada
[if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of USA [if any],
unidentified [if any], separated by ======= Within each,
they are in frequency order
** CANADA. 333 kHz, Dec 7 at 0708 UT, beacon QE and dash, but not listed. Must
really be QT, in Thunder Bay, Ontario, dah instead of a dit.
341 kHz, Dec 7 at 0710 UT, beacon YYU, no dash, mixing at different pitch, so
not exactly same frequency as my local on 341, EI Enid. YYU is in Kapuskasing,
Ont., also per http://www.dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm
That`s neat; I was not expecting anything so exotic on a rare foray into the LW
NDB area. Kapuskasing was also the location of a hot analog TVDX target years
ago (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA [and non]. 860, Dec 7 at 0658 UT, French mixing with C&W and at 0700
mixing with KKOW ID, I do detect ``Première`` as CBC French calls itself, but
that`s not enough, as there are two of them, CJBC Toronto, 50/50 kW U1, more
likely; and slightly further (1883 vs 1766 km), CBKF-2 Saskatoon, 10/10 kW U4;
presumably // during informations en sommet de l`heure, but otherwise deux
timezones apart for programmation. DFing would nail it but I`m not on the
DX-398. CBKF-2 has major lobes N and S, day and night, with nulls toward
Toronto and Prince Rupert (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
==========
** U S A. 660, Dec 8 at 0115 UT, Navajo drumming and chanting, dominating, so
again suspect it`s ND rather than protecting NYC. Official FCC December sunset
for KTNN Window Rock AZ is 0000 UT. This programming *really* stands out,
making any further ID unnecessary.
A bit earlier I was also hearing cheater KHAC, 880-USB, and echoey KKOB & KKOB,
770. NYC is just out of luck (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 880-CUSB, Dec 2 at 1328 UT, `Creation Moment` nonsense, 1330 UT no ID
and into `Parenting Today`s Teens`, neither in Navajo, but obviously KHAC Tse
Bonito NM, right across from Window Rock AZ, as E/W DF also fits, and totally
overcomes KRVN from the N. (Also just had C&W from E/W on 660-DSB, no doubt
weaker neighbor, 50 kW ND KTNN). KHAC obviously on 10 kW ND day power as usual
(always?), not 430 watts ND night. Them cheatin` Indians, or rather Anglo
missionary impositions by Western Indian Ministries. FCC shows KHAC`s legal
SR/SS times for December are 1415 and 2400 UT. And, standard remark about
noting the very few SSB US MW stations! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
============
UNIDENTIFIED. 1440, Dec 8 at 0059 UT, in the mix a variety of tones past 0103
UT; they are not pure, not musical, and are random pitches and durations rather
than sweeps or some kind of intentional testing. Can`t get a DF on it as equal
on N/S and E/W antennas (which might mean it`s roughly NE/SW, or NW/SE) (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
