** ANTARCTICA [non]. Annual BBCWS Midwinter special for British
Antarctic Survey: no signals on all three frequencies direct at 2125
June 21: they should have run tuning signals for 5 minutes so
recipients could settle on best frequency. So I go to an Argentine SDR
which unwittingly provides sufficient reception. By 2129 there are
tones on Woofferton 11685 at S9/+15 and 9585 at S9/+10, but no 9870
Ascension. WOF is slightly late JIP the programmme upcut at 2130! But
now 9870 is on with a slightly better signal at S9+10/20 so I stick
with it. Chinese ACI from 9875 must be avoided. Begins talking about
observing penguins. 2135 about South Georgia. 2140 greeting from
Director of BAS, Prof. Jean Francis (sp?). 2142 calling Rothera base.
2151 menu of a previous celebration. At 2153 I make a quick recheck
direct: nothing better than JBA carrier on all three. Outro, hostess
Cerys Matthews is pronounced Care-iss, with a hard C. Bits of music
thruout, never a full piece, and closing with a snippet of `White
Xmas`. Of course most of the programmme was greetings and love-yous
from family members, including at least one from Australia (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, I`ve realized that in DX bandscans the last
several weeks, I have not run across any signal at all in Spanish from
KOCD Okeene, R. Salvaci?n which is/was a 14 kW relay of KWDW-LP, 100
watts horizontal only in OKC, shown with a different name, R. Bautista
Calvario. However KOCD is also horizontal only and my caradio has
vertical antenna only. But I used to hear it fringily, so suspect it`s
really silent. Only 50 km/31 miles (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** SPAIN. 17855, Fri June 21 at 2202, token English from SNR, S9+10/30
into Maryland SDR, news; 2205 the Iberian lynx is no longer
endangered, just vulnerable. 2207 interview about the Teatro Real
developing ``American Fellows`` in the US. Has website with lots of
operas, ballets, flamenco, etc., also from other opera houses. Maybe
mentioned URL once in passing, uncopied. 2214 interview about how
computer animation works, an exhibition ``The Science of Pixar`` in
connexion with a new movie release; and I retune to TURKEY, q.v.
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785.009, Fri June 21 at 2200, VOT English not off the
air, s/on of the 1230 on 17620, S9+30/45 into UTwente; after listening
to part of SPAIN, I pick it up at 2221: `Weekly Analysis` about
relations with China, Turkey`s influence in central Asia but trade
balance still favors China. Somebody visited Xinjiang. 2229 outro and
into `Turkish Folk Tales`. 2237 music. 2242 `That`s Why` about
electromagnetism in the human body. 2248 music. 2253 Ms Badax s/off as
if 1230 on 17620, 2254 IS for a sesquitime, quickly chopped off, no
finesse. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** U S A. 28204.8 CW, June 21 at 1500, OBOB is EEEEEEEEEE DE KE4TWI/B
and grid square not copied. Very localized sporadic E, as in WGB list:
``28204.8 KE4TWI/B - Adolphus area KY USA EM66?? - #0 (25 Apr 2024)
Note: ID + grid - Ant vertical dipole 12w`` and QRZ.com: ``KE4TWI USA
flag USA, James W Tewmey, 402 Karlee Court, Lebanon, TN 37087, USA.
KE4TWI/B 28.2048 MHz is on the air again. For now, it's at my home QTH
until I move it back to Adolphus, KY. Unless I am in the shack or
there is lightning, it's usually on`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5920/5950, June 21 at 0645, horrible spur field out of PMS
on WWCR 5935 which is S9+50 direct; various tones ever-changing; also
noise field detectable out further to roughly 5910/5960. Something`s
noxious at Nashville (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2248 monitoring: confirmed Friday June 21 at
2054 the 2030 on IRRS via AM Italia, 1322.994 kHz, S7 peak with
complete fadeouts into UTwente across Europe, and storm noise.
Also confirmed the 2030 on WRMI webcast only, which I had removed from
sked when it failed to appear a few weeks ago.
But I missed checking the Fri June 21 at 2200 on WRMI 9955; anyone
hear it? Likewise at 2230 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975. Next:

** U S A. 7489.930, June 21 at 2201 quick check into Maryland SDR,
this WBCQ provides S9+5 of dead air.
At 2348 pre-`AAAWWW` check into NH SDR: 5130 is ON, -21 Hz and must be
a different transmitter than before: 5129.979 at S9+15 and playing FKB
preacher, instead of A*ATT! // 3265.128 at S7/9+5; 7489.931 at
S9+10/20. 2359 Allan comes on with ID and WTO theme 0000 June 22.
Complains he has blisters on blisters. 0003 brings in Angela on phone.
3 weeks ago his shoulder started hurting, arthritis. Has been working
on power transformers this week; even in record heat of 96 F three
days ago. Also working on 5130 Number 2 transmitter a lot. A 50 kW
Collins made in 1953. Boosting power and modulation. Everything there
is single-phase except the SuperStation. Denounces electric companies
as Ponzi schemes. 0033 pause to say trimulcasting again but no
datestamp; obviously this one is current and live. Wants to bring R.
Angela service back on 5130 with good programming, but electric is
outrageously expensive now; generally charges $50/hour, trying to hold
to that. Household AC of 120V is most dangerous because it locks you
up, paralyzing, unlike DC. 0056 apologizes for dominating the
conversation about transmitter crap. 0058 a bit of email, Jerry from
Nyack. Amazingly, hardly anything political, no mention of *rump or
whether he will be back on 5130. 0059 prayer. As usual runs past 0100,
JIP Hal Turner almost a minute late, and 3265, 5130 are still on.
Under him I can JB still hear Allan talking to Angela on phone before
they hang up by 0103, then some musical crosstalk on 5130 at least.
Not rechecked until 0209 when 3265+ & 5130- are both off (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. DXMAP shows FM DX sporadic-E nexus over eastern Arkansas, a
bit too close to be effective here, but check it out in the car
anyway, June 21 at 1716 UT. Isolated signal on 94.5 fading way in and
completely out several times, ad for romanocars.com in Syracuse, and
also Fayetteville, various brands: unseems two different stations, so
is there a Syracuse in NC, likely direxion beyond AR? NO, but
Fayetteville is a suburb of Syracuse NY! 1724 another ad mentioning
Syracuse. So it is per WTFDA FMDB:
WYYY 94.5 SYRACUSE NY 100.0 kW 198.0m 42-56-46 76-07-07 Y94 The 80s To
Now Adult Hits ADULT CONTEMPORARY
I see that I have also logged WYYY the past two summers. Total
bandscanning bottom to top does not find any other likely Esignals. I
take a break and resume at 1800, after DXMAP as of the hour until 1748
had the major nexus over central Illinois, which is just about right
for midway to Syracuse. 1993 km/1239 miles
93.9 at 1800, Meximx briefly CCI to Watonga which is still modulating.
Surely not KWDW-LP, cf OKLAHOMA.
95.3 at 1801, CCI to KOKC translator says ``Saratoga County, New
York`` - unless it was mentioned on KOKC net news itself. Not enough
to go on, but I investigate: there is only one station more than 1 kW
in this part of NY besides LI, on opposite side of Adirondax from
Saratoga County, and not too far from Syracuse in another direxion:
WLFK 95.3 GOUVERNEUR NY 6.0 kW 100.0m 44-20-22 75-24-00 COUNTRY THE
WOLF 95.3
2085 km/1296 miles (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
