** CUBA. 6165, July 7 at 0310, RHC English is missing from this frequency again
tonight, leaving only 6000, in incessant complaining about the blockade.
What about various Spanish frequencies scheduled this hour? 5040, 6060, 9535,
11670, 11840, 13740, 15230. Of those, these are not heard and presumed also
OFF: 6060, 9535, 9710, 13740. 6165 is still off at 0437 check, but no further
chex tonite. The frequencies still on are via Quivic?n site; the missing ones
are Bejucal or Bauta; except 5040 is Bauta (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** GERMANY. 9530, July 7 at 0312, Mideast? music at S9+10, not same as R.
Progreso, 4765, which I recently confirmed to be harmonicizing on 9530. Aoki
shows at 0300-0330 only, 9530 is AWR Tigrinya via Nauen (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** JAPAN. 3945, July 7 at 1134 music not // 6115 talk. 3945 is S9+10 with song
and almost on-frequency approx. 3945.015. Checking 3945 just in case for
VANUATU [q.v.], but this must be R. Nikkei 2, which on weekdays runs until
1400, while // 6115 goes off at 1000, leaving that frequency to Voice of
Strait, China.
Comparing 3945 to Nikkei 1 on 3925, with classical music, tho meter reading is
equivalent S9+10, 3945 has significantly more fading, why? Nikkei is not listed
in HFCC, to check their alleged powers and azimuths; however, WRTH shows JOZ
3925 is 50 kW, while JOZ5 3945 is only 10 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** JAPAN [non]. 11680, July 7 at 0316, Japanese, fair with deep fades. It`s NHK
via GERMANY at 03-05, 250 kW at 140 degrees, so close to directly off the back
here. Same is on 5910, 500 kW, 290 degrees from FRANCE, which I often pause
upon during a wide variety of music with VG signal here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH. 6135, July 7 at 1122, noise jamming, no doubt vs Voice of
Freedom, Korea South, which cannot be heard here under it.
3985, July 7 at 1133, noise jamming much like on 6135, this time against Echo
of Hope (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 650, July 7 at 1106 UT, Sinaloa ads, including mariscos frescos at
Mariscos del Navigante; from XETNT Los Mochis.
I`m finally up early enough in the summer for XE sunrise skip: Enid LSR today
is 1121 UT, inching later since earliest 1113 UT a month ago. Besides 5 other
XE logs within a few minutes of this time, some other familiar signals were
passed across, such as 550, 710.
Not much storm noise now, but there is lightning as close as southwest Missouri
into southeast Kansas. I consult this lighting-locator site with a map of TX
also covering all of OK and parts of other adjacent states:
http://en.blitzortung.org/live_lightning_maps.php?map=31
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 780, July 7 at 1102 UT, after choral NA, ID or sign-on from San
Fernando, Tamaulipas, on FM 102.7. I guess they really said 103.7, as listed
for XESFT. No KSPI OK carrier yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 830, July 7 at 1109 UT, 105.7 ID from La Caliente, which leads to
XELN, Linares, Nuevo Le?n. WRTH and IRCA show 5/0.25 kW; Cant? 3/0.25 kW (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 900, July 7 at 1055 UT, choral NA, 1057 XEOK ID mentioning
Guadalupe, Nuevo Le?n, near Monterrey station. It`s usually this, not XEW in
further DF we hear any more (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 940, July 7 at 1101 UT, ad for Laboratorios Mayo sales event coming
up in Pachuca, Hidalgo; 1102 choral NA; 1104 ID as ``24 horas, desde M?xico,
XEQ-AM, 50 mil watts, La Ke Buena`` and into ``El Morning Show de la Ke
Buena``. Yes, the title in English. No audible het so using on-frequency
transmitter, and big dominant signal, unlike other major DF stations (Glenn
Hauser, oK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1090, July 7 at 1113 UT, dramatized history with music about Oaxaca,
loops SSW. Both strongly suggest it`s XEAU, Milenio Radio in Monterrey NL
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** RUSSIA [and non]. 7295, July 7 at 1155, S7 signal but very poor in noise
level, presumed Radio Sakha, Yakutsk. A stronger S9 signal is on its // 7345,
with talk and music, but not enough 7295 to make a match. Besides, at 1158,
7345 sounds like Chinese, and at 1200, 5+1 timesignal. That`s merely one of
countless CNR1 frequencies from Beijing. (Thazin Radio, Myanmar is also listed
on 7345 until 1330.)
I`m listening again at 1259, when 7295 is still audible and much weaker than
7345, but 7295 cuts off at 1300:22*, the new normal weekday closing time for
Radio Sakha, altho Ron Howard heard it extended later past 1317 July 6 for
coverage of some children`s games, including English at 1248-1310! The games
last until July 17, closing ceremony July 16. He`s found that R. Sakha recently
reversed 7295 and 7345 powers if not azimuths, making the lower one better to
North America and without the QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1833 monitoring: confirmed first SW
broadcast, Thursday July 7 at 1130 on WRMI 9955; initially only S5-S8 but no
jamming; by 1150 built up to S9+20 to 30. Next:

** U S A. 570, July 7 at 1045 UT, Fox Sports Radio, hype, hype, hype. Loops
NE/SW, and easily heard with KLIF DFW nulled, not very strong itself. Presumed
KWML Las Cruces NM, 5000/155 watts U1; and confirmed at 1059 UT ID after local
weather. So is it on day power? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 740, July 7 at 1052 UT, KTRH Houston TX with headlines, IDs in
passing, over KRMG Tulsa and making a 64/minute = 1.07 Hz SAH; also heavy QRM
from the off-frequency Mexican. KTRH is 50/50 kW U4, and both day and night
patterns are supposed to throw virtually nothing toward Oklahoma. But I can
only get some KRMG by nulling KTRH. By 1107 UT, KRMG is atop, but KTRH and its
SAH still audible. Official FCC July sunrises are: Tulsa 1115 UT; Houston 1130
UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VANUATU. 7259.962, July 7 at 1138, JBA carrier, presumed R. Vanuatu on
precise off-frequency, still transmitting altho allegedly ceasing programming
circa 1015 as a cost-saving measure. At 1202, however, I am getting a double
het around 7260 with BFO, so what else? Maybe Mongolia. It`s still almost two
hours before Urumqi sunset at 1354 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ALBANIA. 9854.95, July 8 at 0154 check, the R. Tirana 0130 English to North
America is *still* a big humroar. There is yet hope: Manfred Reiff, Germany
tells us in the DXLD yg on Thursday July 7: `` Good morning, yesterday I made a
recording of parts of the German service of Radio Tirana and sent the cut to
the head of the German service, Mr. Astrit Ibro. He replied this morning that
they have a meeting with the technicians on Friday to solve the problem. 73,
Manfred`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11780, July 8 at 0216, RNA is S9 and considerably distorted
modulation, after quite a spell of decent transmission. I look for spurs around
the 25m band, but don`t find any now, so that`s a plus, but they could be less
than the considerable band noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11934.58, July 8 at 0212, JBA carrier, no doubt R?dio RB2, as it
continues to drift very slowly downward from one night to the next (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6060, 6165, 9535, 9710, 11670, 13740, July 8 after 0204 UT chex, all
these RHC frequencies scheduled this hour are OFF again tonight like yesterday
and perhaps ante-yesterday. Only ones heard ON are: 5040 Spanish, 6000 English,
11840 & 15230 Spanish. 11840 as usual accompanied by JBA spurs on 11830 &
11850. A major breakdown at the Bejucal and Bauta sites? Or merely a mid-summer
maintenance break? Now there`s less overkill by RHC on the bands. Probably
there are similar absences in the morning and afternoon blox I have not
investigated. Except I was not hearing 6000 in my unusual 1100 UT morning
session July 7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9530, July 8 at 0205, Cuban pulse jamming against nothing, except: a
JBA carrier, the second harmonic of 4765 Radio Progreso, as if they are trying
to hide it, hi! This sounds like only one jammer, while there are several still
attacking 9565, the Mart? frequency never on the air at night; and MUCH heavier
wall-of-noise on 9490 against Radio Rep?blica, which really is there from
France, but buried (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** EGYPT. 9315 English, 9965 Arabic, 12085 other Arabic, July 8 at 0203, 0208,
all three R. Cairo frequencies are open carrier and dead air, instead of
horrible noise from one or two of them. 9315 is S8, 12085 is only S3, often
much stronger. No precise measurements made except to note that 9965.00 is
exceptionally on-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 7275-USB, July 8 at 0221, the contrarian USB, not LSB
net on 40m is going again with KJ5GG, which ARRL lookup shows is HENSON, RONALD
G, WEATHERFORD, OK 73096. He has to take a break and turns it over to a couple
other weakers whose calls also without fonetix I don`t copy correctly enough to
find any listed. Does this net have a name and a specific schedule? It does all
sound rather informal (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7425, July 8 at 0220, S5 mixture of audio from 7305 Vatican Radio
music during Spanish service, and 7365 Radio Mart? talk, from two adjacent
Greenville transmitters, for the record, still producing this leapfrog mixing
product (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1833 monitoring: confirmed Thursday July 7 at 2100 on
WRMI 13695, very good (stayed tuned for `Blues Radio International` at 2130).
Also confirmed Thu July 7 at 2330 on WBCQ 9330v-CUSB, JBA. Next:

** U S A. 7780, July 8 at 0218, as I start my 7 MHz bandscan downward, NO
signal from this WRMI #3 BS, so a little less toxic algae from Okeechobee, hi.
I check all the others and find WRMI, mostly BS, still transmitting on 5015,
5765, 5850, 5950, 5985, 6855, 7570, 7730, 9395, 9955, 11530, 11580. That
accounts for all 13 transmitters, as only one, #7 is not scheduled to be on air
at night, just 21675 for Radio Africa in daytime (which is barely audible any
more with abysmal solar flux) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Hi Glenn, I have been helping Larry Thom, chief engineer of WRNO.
Larry has an Elcor transmitter similar to mine. He has been off the air for
some time due to transmitter problems as well as health problems. Larry and I
have been in touch and working out the problems with the transmitter. We just
got WRNO back on the air minutes ago. I set up my test equipment to monitor the
signal and have been able to talk Larry in as he adjusted his audio processor.
WRNO never sounded better. The frequency is 7505 KC. The Elcor is being driven
by a Collins T-368 which is doing a fine job for a 60 year old transmitter.
Check out 7505 KC see what you think (Jon Gorski, KJES, 0024 UT July 7, via DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
Jon, received after WOR 1833 was completed. And I don`t hear it at 0113 UT.
Will it be back on later tonight? The `new` WRNO certainly never reached its
potential with only 3 hours a day, off-frequency and at times awful modulation
(Glenn to Jon, 0116 UT July 7 via DXLD)
Glenn, we just got it back tonight. And are still tuning and testing. But it
will get better. Larry has been at it all day, so not sure he will be back
tonight. His regular transmitter operator is off. When the regular operator
returns, he will need to be trained on the T-368 driver. I helped Larry fine
tune the audio processor, so some improvement there. Still have a frequency
drift problem that he will get solved. Baby steps at first. But it will come
together. Larry is lucky to be able to work in the heat of the transmitter
shack. He just got out of the hospital after surgery for kidney stones. He says
it takes a while to get back to full strength. Also trouble with rain in the
T-368. Not a cloud for three states around when he loaded the T-368 transmitter
on his pickup truck. But as soon as he started loading, a little black cloud
opened up on him and hung around pouring an inch of rain on him and the T-368.
Took all day to dry it out and get it operating again. Some days
ya just can't get a break. Larry's doing his best; wish him luck (Jon Gorski,
KJES, 0150 UT July 7, ibid.)
It's just the daily life of a transmitter engineer slaving over a hot
transmitter. Larry Thom, WRNO chief engineer, says he will have to teach his
transmitter op. the new stuff. He still has some fine "tweaking to do" but he
will get it right (Jon Gorski, KJES, 0350 UT July 7, ibid.)
So the next night from before 0000 UT, I have the R75 with BFO set to 7504-USB.
Cuts on at *0100 and I file this to the DXLD yg at 0115:
WRNO is back on the air from *0100 UT July 8, 7505v. Frequency is varying
considerably as they are tweaking it, like 7505.130, 7505.390, 7504.990 in the
next few minutes. Every time I try to measure it, it`s jumping or VFOing. ID
from Fort Worth, Texas studio, gospel music. Jon Gorski is helping them get
back on the air and tells me they started testing last night. More details to
follow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
I resume monitoring on the NRD-545 at 0149 UT July 8: 7505.19 is S9+40 with
good modulation. Contact info is being given, including wrnora...@mailup.net
--- also they have an app: WRNO. Asking for reports; they want to know who is
listening from which countries. `Haven` also mentioned, program name or part of
one? By 0158 it`s closer to 7505.25; canned ID at 0200 mentioning from
transmitter site in New Orleans, Louisiana; 0201 starting `Marantha Radio`
preaching and I tune out until another check at 0239 when it`s about 7505.026.
Following our tip, Wolfgang B?schel replies, ``USA 7505.014 Noted WRNO with
station ID at 0251 UT on July 8 on remote SDR unit in Edmonton Alberta. Stable
frequency so far, no wandering noted. 2 x 15 kHz broad wide signal, nice audio.
Talk by two women, "what you are reading...", Mrs. Rose-Mary co-presenter, talk
on Goodness of God. S=9+35dB signal`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, July 7 at 2010, WTWW-3 is open carrier/dead air instead of
Bibling, and still so at 2128. 9930 is off instead of Dave Ramsey Show. 9475 is
abnormally weak with SFAW at S5-S8. Not checked again until 0208 UT July 8, and
now 12105 is off; 5830 is on with ponderous Bible story about Moses, and
crosstalk slightly lower level; sounds like same speaker with different feed,
maybe same story considerably offset. Rather like tape print-thru; remember
that, from extra-thin mylar on reels-to-reel? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1460, July 8 at 0232 UT, Spanish looping NE/SW talk sounds like
sports. The only good fit is: KBZO Lubbock TX with ESPN Deportes, 1000/243
watts U1. Atop at first, it soon fades (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1521.0, July 8 at 0227 and still at 0236, 1 kHz het is audible on
hi side of Herman Cain on KOKC 1520.0 OKC, which I always confidently assume is
the 2-megawatter in Duba, SAUDI ARABIA which operates only at the night, and
serves as a Trans-Atlantic beacon as far as deep North America; so a new DX
season is underway, hi hi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
