** ARGENTINA. 11710.78, Jan 20 at 0133, is my measurement tonight for RAE. Last
one was 11710.838, UT Sat Jan 16 at 0305. But a few minutes later tonight,

** BIAFRA [non]. 11600, Jan 19 at 2058, very poor talk at S6, presumed R.

in Europe is not very good either (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 15370, Jan 19 at 2112, RHC is still running this third
frequency in French, contrary to B-15 schedule: 15370 is strongest, then 11880,
then 11670, but 11670 sounds louder than 11880 altho it also has CCI from All
India Radio whose longtime frequency it has usurped (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

** OKLAHOMA. 890, Jan 19 at 2017 UT on caradio bandscan, I find that KTLR OKC
is modulating two programs at once! At equal levels. One is from BizTalk
network, which I wasn`t aware they carried. The second audio sometimes has
pauses, like other side of phone conversation unheard, and sometimes sounds
like somebody left his (produxion?) mike open + on the air with comments not
intended for broadcast. Between errand stops, rechex at 2035 UT and 2044 UT
find the doubletalk still emitting! No one at station listening to itself.
Don`t know for how much longer.
One promo still uses slogan ``Kommunity TaLk Radio``, tho KTLR originally
stands for Tyler Media, the conglomerate in OK which has bought up lots of
radio and TV stations around Oklahoma City, including even KOKC & KOMA. BTW,
1520 KOKC is registering only S9 on the N-S antenna, but 890 KTLR is S9+32:
lower-frequency advantage with only 1 kW ND, compared to 1520 with QRP of 10 kW
ND.
Here`s the 890 program schedule showing BTR weekdays from 1 pm to sign-off
(Jan: 5:45 pm CST), and various other times on weekends. Some blox mixed in are
in Spanish:

Recheck on NRD-545 at 2101 UT in time for full ID in Spanish as ``KETU, 11-20
AM, La Diferente`` also giving 10 mil watts, Tulsa, Oclajoma, ``con m?sica del
presente y del pasado``, one minute of the most important news headlines,
leading, natch, with SCOTUS reviewing POTUS` immigration policy; 2102 UT music
show `La Rumba``.
This belies a new(?) item: ``La Zeta 95.7 Inc. acquires 98.3 K252DT Seneca KS
from First Ventures for $37,500. K252DT will rebroadcast Spanish Christian
"Radio Victory" 1120 KETU Catoosa/Tulsa OK (Radio Insight via Shawn Axelrod
VE4DX1SMA, Winnipeg MB Canada, Jan 15, NRC-AM via DXLD)``
I haven`t been able to find it on radioinsight.com and KETU has not called
itself Radio Victoria, nor been religious for over a year. This may come as a
surprise to the Seneca translator? Was someone reporting this relying on
outdated info? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4618-USB, Jan 20 at 0111, MARS net, name seems ``Shares(?)
Northern``, with AFA7FC NCS making calls, then NNB4DW at 0112, but no answers
so ``the net is free``. Then NNB4DW makes some more calls. I guess this
new-style N-call is successor to defunct Navy MARS, now ``shared`` with Air
Force? Calls given fonetikaly. But no hits on NNB4DW search other than for
license plates! AFA7FC is Bill Glynn, state MARS director for Kansas. First
searches on that lead to HTML hex colors until I add MARS.
3299-USB, Jan 20 at 0117, another AF MARS net, designated SEM1, AFF4FL calling
stations in South Carolina; then a much weaker station doing the same. Then
calling Tennessee, with multiple answers talking over each other, including
AFA4RW who is in Tennessee. AFF4FL is FLORIDA STATE MARS DIRECTOR WILLIAM
(BILL) MATZINGER (a.k.a. AFA4RA).
3390.5-USB, Jan 20 at 0120, yet another AF MARS net but too weak to copy much.
Must be a favorite early-evening hour to get together (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX

** U S A. 13564-CW, Jan 19 at 2115, GNK Part 15 HIFER beacon from Madison WI is
audible with continuous slow IDs, the most reliable one we hear. So far not
hearing the OTR pirate on 13560 vs ISM hash (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 7489.95-AM, Jan 20 at 0122, Allan Weiner reminiscing about some old
radio equipment when it was hard to get; WBCQ with another unexpected `Allan
Weiner Worldwide` playback --- sounds familiar like one I heard last week. At
0151 with Scott Becker on the phone from Kiowa KS, inviting new business for
WBCQ to his phone and e-mail address; also mentions someone involved in putting
97.5 KPAK (Alva OK) on the air.
Then they promote Art Bell about to start on WBCQ on the nineteenth. Oops, this
was from last summer, 19 July, somewhat outdated! As Bell has come and gone
from WBCQ even before he was gone from the other stations. Also it`s happy
birthday to Allan. 01-02 UT Wed is another hour still on the 7490 schedule for
Rabbi Yaakov Spivak, missing again, or is he off WBCQ completely? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 6220, Jan 20 at 0059, S7 signal with Spanish intonation, 0100 music,
i.e. WMDB 880 Nashville TN via WNQM 1300 and WWCR 7520 parasite (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Correxion: original ``12015`` was of course a typo! 12105, Jan 16 at
2248, S9+30 open carrier/dead air from WTWW-3, yet again, missing its extremely
repetitious Bibling Worldwide.
And now another (non) log of same: 12105, Jan 19 at 2116, WTWW-3 is off, while
the other two WTWWs are on: 9930 with Dave Ramsey, and 9475 with PPPP in an
anti-Semitic rant: are you proud of that, Ted? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

WANTOK RADIO LIGHT RETURNS
Plus Other Log Book Notes
January 20, 2016
PAPUA NEW GUINEA - WANTOK RADIO LIGHT
Over the past week or so, a few DXers around the world have noted the
return of the low powered PNG station, Wantok Radio Light (WRL). Although
listed as only a 1 kW transmitter into a non-directional antenna from its
location in Port Moresby, it is quite amazing how this tiny station can be
heard as far away as Japan, USA and Europe. I think it may have been
Hiroyuki Komatsubara who was the first to note the return of WRL, quickly
followed by Ron Howard in California, Mauno Ritola in Finland, Bryan Clark
in New Zealand, and myself.
Here's Ron's first notes on his reception:
WRL Studio
7324.96, Wantok Radio Light (presumed). Thanks very much to Hiroyuki
Komatsubara (Japan) for the alert that WRL has reactivated after being off
the air for some time now; Jan 10 with several openings with CRI off the
air. 1257-1258 heard religious song; this opening is usually 1, 2 or 3
minutes long. After 1357 (CRI sign off time) heard very weak signal clearly
off frequency as usual; by 1413 had definite religious songs; 1418
tentative ID and back to religious music; 1424 CRI transmitter turned on
covering WRL. Nice to have them back on the air again! (Ron Howard,
Asilomar State Beach, CA, Et?n E1, antenna: 100' long wire).
WRL QSL Card
>From Bryan Clark in New Zealand:
Thanks Ron and Hiro. Heard fading in here around 0800 UTC today and quite
readable by 0830. I'm thinking their frequency may be a little lower than
when I last logged them? Bryan, Mangawhai - NZ.
>From Mauno Ritola in Finland:
Yes, also here with readable signal now at CRI break 1400. Measured
7324.942 kHz, so lower as you say. 73, Mauno, Joensuu, Finland
Then several days later, I noted it in my early morning:
7324.94 PAPUA NEW GUINEA. Wantok Radio Light - Port Moresby (presumed).
Heard in the 30 min gap between CRI's s/off at 1930 and s/on at 2000. The
carrier was fairly strong but the audio was quite low at times. Programming
consisted of continuous slow music (possibly religious songs, some with
church organ accompaniment) but no anncts for the whole half hour
monitored. I could still it through CRI's dead-air carrier switch on at
1957, and it could be heard faintly under CRI's Serbian service till about
2015 when it faded due to the daylight path between PNG and Mount Evelyn,
Jan 15. 73, Rob VK3BVW
Three days ago, Ron reported again:
7324.94, Wantok Radio Light, 0740-0945, Jan 16. Started poor and slowly
improved, but never reached the level of steady readability; only able to
pick out a few words here and there. At times
hard to be positive of the language, due to Pidgin using so many English
words. The spoken modulation seemed rather low, whereas the music was
better. No QRM the whole time.
0740-0800: DJ playing religious songs, along with messages & dedications.
0800-0810: News & weather in English (did not sound like NBC news?).
0810-0823: Religious songs (0815 ID).
0823: Announcer with brief religious spot in English.
0826-0835: More religious music (0829 ID).
0835-0855: Religious preaching in Pidgin/Tok Pisin.
0901-0903: Brief news in English; not the full NBC news that I often heard
in the past; followed my more music.
0934-0942: In English; unable to make out what he was talking about?
https://app.box.com/s/2tb4b7e16tukn4o85ay3pnqg723wflo0contains my poor
quality audio. (Ron)
And then again earlier today from Ron:
7324.94, Wantok Radio Light. Jan 19 with decent signal strength 0813-0957,
but with moderately strong OTH radar QRM till that stopped at 0939*.
Highlights:
0825-0845: Syndicated USA program "Fresh Touch"; preaching in English;
ending the show with request for listeners to write c/o "Wantok Radio
Light, P.O. Box 1273, Port Moresby." http://www.freshtouch.org/ .
>From 2011 till early 2015, this time slot was always taken by the programs
of Dr. Tayo Adeyemi (New Wine Church, England), but perhaps as he died in
2013, WRL finally decided to drop his shows and replace this time period
with the "Fresh Touch" program. Based upon my observations, believe the WRL
website program schedule has not been updated in a long time!
http://www.wantokradio.org/radioprograms.html.
0845-0901: In Pidgin/Tok Pisin; ID, frequencies, time check, etc.
0901-0912: PNG bird call, into the NBC National News in English; item about
mining in PNG.
0912: Sounded like the usual thank you announcement ("Wantok Radio Light
Ministries thanks the National Broadcasting Corporation for allowing us to
relay the daily news bulletin. Join us at 7 AM for the next NBC National
News?).
0912-0913: advertisement for "NASFUND" savings, "Your Partner in
Superannuation."
0933: In progress with the syndicated USA program "Focus on the Family";
interview with Mary Flo Ridley about her books on parenting; presented with
John Fuller and Jim Daly.
0954: Ending "Focus on the Family" with a promotional spot from their
sponsor - "Ninety-Nine Ltd."
0957: CRI transmitter turned on, blocking WRL. (Ron)
No doubt, others have noted the return of this station. If you have, why
not let us know here at MEDXR? We'd love to hear from you!

=================
** PAPUA NEW GUINEA [and non]. 7324.96, Wantok Radio Light (presumed).
Thanks very much to Hiroyuki Komatsubara (Japan) for the alert that
WRL has reactivated after being off the air for some time now; Jan 10
with several openings with CRI off the air. 1257-1258 heard religious
song; this opening is usually 1, 2 or 3 minutes long.
After 1357 (CRI sign off time) heard very weak signal clearly off
frequency as usual; by 1413 had definite religious songs; 1418
tentative ID and back to religious music; 1424 CRI transmitter turned
on covering WRL. Nice to have them back on the air again! (Ron Howard,
Asilomar State Beach, CA, Et?n E1, antenna: 100' long wire, dxldyg via
WORLD OF RADIO 1808, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
Ron and all, No hint of a carrier here, and as I type there is a good
greyline path, so not 24 hours as previously listed. Will try about
0800z tomorrow (Mark, Anglesey, 1949 UT Jan 11, ibid.)
Hi Mark, Yes, please try at 0800+. Please note the following updated
info.
7324.94, Wantok Radio Light (presumed). Jan 11 was a repeat of
yesterday's log; very poor/very weak, but able to make out the
religious music; 1357-1402 announcers; 1402-1424 music. Thanks again
to Hiroyuki Komatsubara (Japan) for the alert, as he first heard them
Jan 9 at 1411.
Mauno Ritola measured 7324.942 kHz, so slightly lower that when last
on the air. This new slight change was also noted by Bryan Clark in
New Zealand - "Heard fading in here around 0800 UT today [Jan 11] and
quite readable by 0830. I'm thinking their frequency may be a little
lower than when I last logged them?" and Mauno confirmed. Thanks for
everyone's feedback! (Ron Howard, California, dxldyg via WORLD OF
RADIO 1808, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
And also did check 7325 on Japanese and Brisbane remotes, except the
big fat Chinese on even fq was on air, I couldn't see any 2nd/further
string on 7325 lower sideband neither (Wolfgang B?schel, Germany,
circa 1100-1300 UT Jan 11, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
7325-, Jan 11 at 1255, CRI Japanese with a JBA carrier under slightly
offset, presumed Wantok Radio Light, reported by Ron Howard to have
reactivated yesterday after many months. As he said, CRI takes a break
at 1257-1259, and during that the JBA carrier is indeed barely
detectable, in fact more evident by the beat it makes with CRI when it
comes back on weaker at 1259, having changed from Jihnua to Xian site.
Another longer window starts at 1357* of CRI, but again not enough
signal left of WRL to make anything out of it. Why WRL would choose to
confront its 1 kW with 500 kW from China is beyond comprehension. Cri
Japanese starts at 1000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1808, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** AUSTRALIA. 11387-USB, Jan 20 at 1432, English YL VOLMET, but poor signal
interrupted by stronger ute blaaps on the hi side circa 11388-11389; poor
frequency co?rdination. Scheduled at hourtop and hourbottom on 11387 is
Australia, site n = Ningi, Queensland, 27S04'00" - 153E03'20". She stops
already at 1433.
Five minutes earlier at 1425 it would have been Mumbai, five minutes later at
1435, Kolkata. Also sharing the frequency in half-hourly rotation are Karachi,
Singapore and Bangkok (i.e. Krung Thep), per EiBi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** PAPUA NEW GUINEA. 7324.94, Jan 20 at 1408, very poor S6 signal with flutter,
going from talk to music, i.e. Wantok Radio Light, with only 1 kW during the
CRI hiatus. Ron Howard has been logging it for a couple hours before China
starts at *0957 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1809, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PHILIPPINES. 9335, Jan 20 at 1417, the IBB Tinang open carrier with flutter
is already on this long before the *1429 sign-on of VOA Burmese (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TIBET [non]. 11517, Jan 20 at 1419, presumed V. of Tibet still here for a
few minutes, and no CNR1 jamming carrier audible on 11520 or 11515. However
there is an unID carrier on 11510 where nothing else is scheduled, i.e. jammer
stuck there to QRM VOT`s ex-11512 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1809, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1808 monitoring: confirmed Wed Jan 20 starting at

** U S A. Following this report in AM Switch of NRC DX News Dec 28:
``1480 KBXD TX Dallas ? Silent Dec. 17, 2014; on the air Dec. 10``
With what programming? I`m looking for KBXD, but have seen no other reports of
it and have been unable to hear it myself on several chex in January, such as
Jan 20 at 1354 UT. Now the dominant signal day and night continues to be KQAM
Wichita. That`s because the next NRC DX News of January 11 reported:
``1480 KBXD TX Dallas ? Had been back on the air Dec. 10; silent again Dec. 21
to replace transmitter and hopes to be back on the air within 30 days``
So was that the old transmitter Dec 10-21? It used to make a fast SAH with
KQAM. Possibly it was this along with another unID log on 1480: ``UNIDENTIFIED.
1480, Dec 6 at 0126 UT, as I tune in, ID as ``1480 WGRA`` or maybe WGRE --- but
there is no such station listed by NRC or FCC on 1480, nor any fuzzily similar
call. Lots of QRM, maybe a music station vs all the talk stations. Also a low
rumbling het from somebody too far off-frequency. Frustrating.`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** YEMEN [non]. 11860, Jan 20 at 1425, R. Sana`a, speaker with echo, 1427
martial singing, mostly music until cut to Maghrib sunset call to prayer at
1454:28.5. As I noted, it was completely missing yesterday, but ante-yesterday
CTP was at 1454:00 exactly, so only 28.5 seconds later than then. I expect
tomorrow there will be a leap considerably later to catch up with the sun. IBB
CCI from Kuwait is a little heavier than usual but still way underneath (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4790-USB, Jan 20 at 1359, Asian language monolog, but with no
carrier and occasional pauses past 1402, so 2-way rather than a broadcaster.
4790 is occupied earlier at 1300-1330 by BBC Uzbek, and maybe CNR1 jammer if
they get back here instead of lysdexic 4970 as Ron Howard has concluded to
explain the QRM to India there.
BTW, I am also still getting two carriers near 4870, presumably always
off-frequency RRI Wamena, Indonesia and more on-frequency AIR Kingsway in
Nepali (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9225-USB, Jan 20 at 1413, 2-way in Spanish, whistling (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11902.45-USB, Jan 20 at 1428, 2-way in Spanish, INTRUDERS (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
