Likely likewise the JBA carriers on 18970, 16100 at 2214. See also UNIDENTIFIED 21530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA [and non]. Spy numbers figure in this 60 Minutes story May 19: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/spies-for-cuba-a-danger-to-us-national-security-as-american-secrets-sold-around-the-world-60-minutes-transcript/ I don`t see a link to axual audiovideo of segment; must be somewhere. It seems that after serving her sentence, Ana Mont?s is living the good life in Puerto Rico where she is treated as a heroine (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** IRAN [and non]. 5990, May 21 at 1905, as I am checking Canary Is SDR for 5995 MALI, q.v., a big S9+25/40 open carrier here with slight hum, trace of mod at best. EiBi shows it`s VIRI in Albanian at 1820-1920! Typical shutout at Sirjan. I assume this minor language is of interest due to the Islamic minority there, who are thus being disserved; with ACI from 5985 Chinese music, i.e. CRI so-called Portuguese service to southern Africa from Beijing site. How about second registered fq for IRIB Albanian hour? At 1917 into UTwente, nothing on 7325, and 7310 Chinese, probably CNR1 jammer vs SOH. And by 1921, 5990 is off as expected to 1920* in IRIB`s wacky :20 to :20 scheduling of most languages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 9635, May 21 at 0648, surprised to find S6/S8 in French here, normally nothing. Got to be Bamako as nothing on 5995. Normally switches from 5995 to 9635 at 0800. Permanent change or error? Check around 1900 May 21 into Canary SDR, neither. But at 1921, 5995 has come on, S9+20/40 with heated discussion in Bambara? and music breaks. 2006 recheck in French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1120, May 20 at 2035 UT check on caradio, KETU Catoosa back on the air with Spanish music, after missing at 1530 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. 11935, May 21 at 1642, via UTwente, horrible buzzroar gets ACI from CRI English via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN on 11940. Still 1854 in the clear without ACI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN [and non]. 17855, Monday May 20 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG S9+30/40 direct, preview of topic: an AI treaty in Europe rating countries on a scale of 1-12, as in interview underway at 2208 after news. As usual lately, almost as good on 15520 backwards to ME, S9/+10, poor on 17715 to S America, no signal on 15390 for Africa. 15390 has been missing so long that I wonder if they QSYed without notice, at least not in English. HFCC A-24 shows all these 161-degree alternatives available on weekdays during this hour: 21620, 11670, 15350, 15385, 11530. By 2230 when French should be on, I check each via UTwente for possible // to 17855: none, altho there is weak signal from algo on 11670, which would be CNR Beijing from 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 18155 USB, May 21 at 2207, EA7GX contacting a W7 near Bend, Oregon and other Americans, ``Peter in Spain``. Not surprising since Noblejas booms in S9+20/30 on 17855 in non-English. QRZ.com: ``EA7GX Spain flag Spain, PEDRO ROLANDO ORTEGA, ALBORAN 7, LA LINEA DE LA CONCEPCION, CA 11300, Spain`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, May 20 at 2159, TRT IS, 2200 timesignal, opening English, S9+10/20 direct but still too much high local noise level - HLNL of S9+10. So not off the air today, but no time to listen in detail. Recheck into UTwente where measured: 2253.6 s/off ignoring SW, 2254.3 IS but chopoff by 2254.7, no finesse (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 11785.009, May 21 at 2159, no signal direct from VOT English vs S9 HLNL while RRI 11800 manages to be JBA. But at 2200:15, JBA carrier briefly on 11785. Recheck at 2215 not even that. Finally at 2234 I tune UTwente to confirm no 11785 --- but there is Ms. Badax on 9875.007! That`s the 2030-2130 English frequency running way overtime. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. S9+15/25, but in addition heavy ACI from stronger 9880 which is CRI Esperanto with a Chinese? accent, for S America via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uighurs and other Moslems; not that that gets Turkey off the hook for denied genocide against Armenians a century ago. Anyhow, not going to try to listen under such circumstances, and besides, it`s primarily time for BBC and NBC news on TV. But recheck at 2254 both 9875 and 11785 off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed Monday May 20 at 1930.5 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001 S9+20 and 3975.003 S+10, into UTwente. Also confirmed UT Tuesday May 21 at 0334 the 0330 on WRMI 7780, S9+10/20 into Quer?taro SDR. Also confirmed Tuesday May 21 at 1322 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S5/S7 very poor direct. Next: 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975; 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160; 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S; 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW; 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160.

Thanks this week to Sheldon Harvey, Qu?bec who sent a box of equipment. One may also contribute, not necessarily in US funds, via PayPal to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17790, May 21 at 1527, WRMI-7, with IS and IDs, ``programming resumes at top of the hour`` -- NOT! 1530 stops and something undermod, presumably ``Radio Africa`` to S America. Propagation continues very degraded, but at S7 direct, this wins as the SSOB. Not all WRMI frequencies ``resume`` at ToH, but they don`t have a runup version specifying ``bottom of the hour``. Nominally 17790 would start at 1500, until 2100. Something`s odd at Okee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, May 21 at 0658, S9+50! of dead air from WWCR direct, as often happens late at night instead of TOMBS. Standard derision (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13845.026, May 21 at 1534, WWCR-3 perceptibly off-frequency, so I check two remotes for accurate measurement: UTwente inaudible, yet enough signal to lock onto as above. Same readout for NH SDR, accurate calibrated with WWV. MUF is such that 13845 is weaker than usual while 12160 blasts in direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** URUGUAY. 24965 USB, May 20 at 2206, CX4RT working FL and other US. Only phone signal on band. A few minutes earlier, nothing at all on 10m. QRZ.com: ``CX4RT Uruguay flag Uruguay, Juan Conde, Aveneu Victor Hugo casi Lope De Vega Post Code 20100, Punta del Este Grid Square Locator GF25MB Uruguay`` -- putting that GSL on your letter might confuse the posties! Photos of antennas, equipment, motorcycles and three girlchildren on website (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 10024 AM, May 21 at 0650, S3/S5 with a trace of modulation; broadcast spur? Klingenfu? shows numerous South American `Air` SSBs on 10024. Besides Lima, EiBi shows only Tegucigalpa, Honduras, ``COCESNA Cenamer Control``, never specifying AM or SSB mode for anything (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 21530, May 20, Chinese? S3/S5, OSOB. Nothing in latest HFCC; Aoki & Eibi show Sound of Hope 21529.7 and CNR1/Firedrake jammer but not between 13 and 23. Not off-frequency so very likely jammer from western ``China`` such as East Turkistan to be propagating way over here mostly day path (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) {Time missing the first time from this, the point being that it was at 1517!} cf CHINA This report dispatched at 2315 UT May 21 End of Hard-Core-DX Digest, Vol 257, Issue 22 *********************************************
