S9+20 with hum. Something`s always wrong at RHC. B-20 changes not there for a couple weeks, post timezone shift in a week, as a Running Dog of Yanqui Imperialism, co?rdinated with USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EAST TURKISTAN. 5959.923v: See NETHERLANDS [non] and TURKEY ** FRANCE. 7245, Oct 25 at 0620, Qur`an at S7-S8, something new next to 7255 Nigeria. HFCC B-20 shows it`s RFI this hour, 500 kW at 170 degrees, multilingual across Africa. But I cannot believe RFI would be Qur`aning. ALGERIA would be, but B-20 scheduled this hour only on 6105 for Issoudun relay, plus own imaginaries (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN [non]. 6165, Oct 25 at 0625, M&W in Arabic, S9/+10. It`s NHK via FRANCE this semihour, 500 kW at 140 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NETHERLANDS [non]. 5960, Oct 24 at *2359 shortly after TURKEY has closed, fortunately, rather than another spurious hour in German, which they have not done lately; Nauen carrier for The Mighty farty KBC weekly UT Sunday 00-02 to NAm has come on, making LAH with Xinjiang PBS, Urumqi, now scheduled to start at 2330, and always off-frequency minus. In AMSynch mode, UTwente SDR locates that on 5959.923v, and stays locked to it rather than Nauen closer to 5960.00; levels are roughly equal. I was hearing XPBS as early as 2356 when Turkey went off and unseemed Mandarin until 2358; at 0000, 5+1 timesignal as KBC is also signing on. At 0006 October 25 I check direct reception here and hear only KBC, so that`s what matters to them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. UNIDENTIFIED: 6925-USB, Oct 25 at 0007, weak S3-S5 pirate music. More logs of this as unID, no guesses: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,73315.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS. 12055, Oct 25 at 1352, S7-S9 tonal language. B-20 USAGM via TINian now scheduled 1330-1430 in Myanmarianese. WEWN Spanish not on 12050 yet till 5970 change at 1400. 9390, Oct 25 at 1402, weak Chinese? No longer Thailand in English here which has moved to 9940; HFCC shows 9390 this hour be USAGM in zho = Chinese via TINIAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA. RRI B-20 scheduling checked ASAP UT Oct 25, tuning UTwente for English to North America one hour later: 0105, VG S9+30 on 7325 & 6130; 0452 at Maine SDR: 6020 VG and 7410 good but latter with noise out to 7405 and 7415, residual Cuban jamming? (Glenn Hauser, OK WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, Oct 24 at 2344, VOT English to NAm has already made B-20 seasonal change to 2300 on 5960 instead of 2200 on 9830. HFCC seasons nominally start at 0100 UT Sundays, but it`s already Oct 25 in Turkey --- first log of the season! Via UTwente SDR, Turkish music at S9+10/20; 2349 ID, more music; 2354 YL canned sign-off as if it were still A-20 at 1230 on 15450!! A bit more IS and now I can hear CCI making a LAH from off-frequency-minus Xinjiang PBS Urumqi, East Turkistan, land of cultural genocide by the ChiCom imperialists against the Uyghurs. Continued at NETHERLANDS [non] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 6125, Oct 25 at 0403, VOT English to W North America confirmed at new B-20 time and frequency, news to 0405, then that COVID-19 PSA and music. Checked via Maine SDR, where there is noise in the 6120-6130 range, presumed still Cuban jamming against Mart? which finishes 6125 in B-20 at 0400, too close for comfort! 0400 is the final repeat of the original now 1330 UT VOT English; make that ``olds``. Speaking of which, Oct 24 circa 1323, had a JBA carrier on the last day of the real 15450 broadcast from 1230. Oct 25 at 1352, B-20 reactivation of 12035 from 1330 bears JBA music, not enough yet; aimed for Europe but we be directly beyond (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non].

Bob Heil is playing recordings of deceased colleagues` performances, including some pre-echo audible during a pause, which means it`s print-thru on a reel-to-reel tape. 0048 as soon as some applause start, WTWW hastily cuts to ID and back to rock music, whew! Enough of that theatre organ stuff (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 5945, Oct 25 at 1356 and 1448, JBA carrier as I am hunting for RNZI in B-20. HFCC shows something from UZBEKISTAN for Pan American [sic] Broadcasting, like Tony Alamo? at 13-14 but on day 7 = Saturday only and this is Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6170.090, Oct 25 at 1355 and still 1448, JBA off-frequency carrier as I hunt for RNZI, which I later find from 1259 has moved from 6170 to 6115 as of October 26. Tentative B-20 HFCC even shows Bangladesh at 13-14 on 6170!
