** EGYPT [and non]. 9899.6, March 4 at 2229, no R. Cairo signal into UTwente, no lock until 2230 when Chinese oncomes at 9899.999.8v: in fact two Chinese mixing, i.e. a China radiowar, CNR1 jamming vs R. Taiwan International both from *2230; but no QahiRM which would last until 2245 if on the air at all today from 2115 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA [and non]. 7220, March 4 at 2325, RRI English with lots of I as well as QRhaM direct. It`s CRI Vietnamese via Xianyang 59 site (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Mar 4 at 2300, token English from REE is VG direct at S9+10/20, 2306 feature about an art thief I can skip. 12030, 11940 and 11685 also audible. First chex of 9690 via Virginia, St Lucia remotes were noisier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960, March 4 at 2310, VOT English is poor direct, S5-S9, tho VG into UTwente (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2128 monitoring: confirmed Friday March 4 at 1915 on reactivated 7290, IRRS via Bulgaria. Tuned in earlier, 7290: 1859 carrier already on 7289.999, S9+45 into UTwente with 1377 users at the moment, but dead air until 1900.8 JIP Feature Story News, 1905 IRRS ID and UN News in Brief, then music fill. Harmonic 14580 not audible at UTwente or Carlow. 1323 kHz: first trying KiwiSDR at Tambov, Russia, just east of Ukraine and 418 km SSE of Moskva. Headed by this with translation: ``I see an extraordinary number of scripters. It's not good. I'll think about what can be done so that the network flood from them does not interfere with others. In the meantime, so as to cool the interest a little. All of this temporarily.`` This one at http://sdr.tambov.gq:8901/ is labeled as covering only 1.6-10 MHz! But is tuning 1323, where at 1906 at S9 I am hearing German only, i.e. the 15 kW Romanian station belying IRRS` claim to get into Ukraine and Russia on 1323. At 1908 I compare it to Noale SDR near 1323 where Romania now in music is mixing with IRRS music. At 1915 I can hear WOR starting almost synch with 7290. But at 1920, some horrible noise hits 7290, whine, roar with breakup, and I hear the same via Carlow, Eire SDR, so it`s not an SDR problem. At 1923 I can make out the same noise vs the other QRM on 1323, so it`s a problem on the feed from `Milano`. Via the Tambov SDR now at 1925 I am only hearing the music from Romania. The noise continues on both frequencies past 1930 when I quit in frustration. Recheck at 1959 finds 7290 clear with Ray Robinson talking about Philippines, so it`s AWR Wavescan until he`s chopped off for IRRS QSL offer which is also chopped off the air before finishing with address. A ~29 minute program cannot possibly fit into a ~15 minute slot, assuming WOR played to completion at 1944. Just a WS fragment as filler. At 2001 I recheck Tambov on 1323 and hear a 1 kHz tone, presumably Romania which has not turned off yet. Underneath is the Verdi theme of IRRS. Vice versa which dominates at Noale, Italy. At 2005, Feature Story News again detectable, but at Tambov more QRM in Hungarian: another Romania broadcast not in WRTH, I guess until 2100? Recheck at 2115, Romania finally off allowing AM Italia into Tambov, American English program about Black History, which turns out at 2120 to be `Counterspin` from FAIR, also on many US public radio stations; then about the Tulsa Race Massacre. At 2130 the next WORLD OF RADIO 2128 broadcast on 1323 can be heard both at Tambov and stronger at Noale. Later at 0040 UT March 5 I bring Tambov up again to investigate its tuning because as I noted earlier at 1800 March 4 it was blocked from tuning 9770 for BBC in Russian which was not on air anyway. It turns out that Tambov is blacked out for everything above 7200! The 40m hamband 7000+ works except for blox at 7045-7055, where we know there has long been a Russia/Ukraine ham radio war. I notice a user in North Carolina tries it briefly on 4625, the buzzer frequency, but that is also blocked.

Looking at the link I think there is a mistake. According to there schedule between 1400-1600 they are will be beaming two signals at 86 degrees on 15735 KHz and 15730KHz only separated by 5KHz!? Don't think many receivers could cope with this.

I have often wondered, in times of crisis when additional output such as this comes on the air how people in the field of conflict become aware of the extra transmissions. It's very unlikely that they read posts on places like this and also, how many in the affected area would use shortwave as a means to keep informed. As DXers we obviously know the benefits of this medium, but in 21st century Europe where events such as those unfolding in Ukraine are very rare do the general population appreciate how useful shortwave can be. 73, David.
