** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Nov 26 at 1501, best of Argentine remotes is offline, but LRA36 JBA on a couple others, weaker S3 than usual as it`s opening multi-lingual ID, 1505 theme song, 1521 still on; one of the remotes with local QRhaM overload; 1528 ID, talking about Chubut; 1540 ``su cía`` ID; 1546 martial tune but not played by a band; cuts off the air at 1550*, so lasted quite a bit longer than for first play on Wednesday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Nov 26 at 0720, S9/+10 of dead air in English except for some hum from RHC not turned off yet. Likewise on 6165 with slightly less hum. No 5025 or 5040 carriers, nor 10050, 10080 loud harmonix. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15140, Nov 26 at 2111, S9+10/15 of dead air from RHC. After English 2000-2100, supposed to continue until 2130 in French. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 17700, Nov 26 at 2003, S9 open carrier; presumably VOA French via Grimesland at 1900-2000 was modulated but not turned off yet. How many $$ do these burn per minute? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [non]. 12075, Sat Nov 26 at 2050 music, no announcements heard, stops at 2059, dead air to 2101*. VOA French via BOTSWANA scheduled until 2100 Sat/Sun, -2130 M-F + Bambara -2200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2166 monitoring: Jeff White tells me that WOR will still be airing UT Saturdays at 0130 on 5850 only following completely redoing the System F automation program. Confirmed UT Saturday November 26 at 0500 on WBCQ Radio Angela, S9/+10 into Maryland SDR, 5130 minus 16 Hz = 5129.984. Tnx to Bill Tilford, this has been one of our most reliable airings.

Thanks this week to David Cole, Baton Rouge LA, for a generous check to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. One may also contribute via PayPal not necessarily in US funds to woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 15770, Sat Nov 26, WRMI: 2112 tune in to Spanish introducing a national orchestra playing what sounds like an unfamiliar national anthem; 2114 sporadic time signal? 2115 `SOS WRMI` fundraiser about famous musicians who are hams. A very contradictory and confusing display about 15770 on WRMI skedgrids: 15770 transmitter shown as System H at 2100-2200, but the System H sked skips that hour! The unlettered RAE sked shows 15770 blank every day except Sunday in Aleman. System E = TOMBS shows 15770 & 9455 at 2100-2200. System F also has 15770 including Sat 2100-2115 I Love Italy, 2115-2130 Viva Miami. Presumably that`s what we are really hearing, with SOS WRMI replacing some or all VMs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, Saturday Nov 26 at 2200, WRMI in Russian narration with musical background, SFX, mentions Israel, bog/bozhe, apparently Bible story semi-dramatized; while fluent, he seems to have an American accent. Scheduled at 2200-2230 is `Your Story Hour` -- is that Adventist program in such non-English languages? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 11835, Nov 26 at 0729, and 7890 at 0738, JBA carriers from harmonix of 3945 R Vanuatu (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0017 UT November 27 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
