Did not get around to checking if Englishing after 1900. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MADAGASCAR. Re 11610, R. Feda on Madagascar World Voice: what does Feda mean? Google will only translate it from Turkish, not Arabic, as sacrifice; reverse translation from sacrifice to Arabic yields: tashia. I can`t find any explanation in WRTH or online. R Feda seems to exist separately from MWV, based in Lebanon (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. ``PUBLIC NOTICE Published in the Enid News & Eagle August 20, 2024 LPXLP (282) --- Tillman Infrastructure, LLC is proposing to construct a 174-foot overall height monopole telecommunications structure near 4509 Unruh Drive, Enid, Garfield County, Oklahoma (N36? 26? 25.1?; W97? 55? 04.8?).

Now NO WTWW frequencies are on air; nor after 0100 does 5920 appear. George McClintock sends me this the morning of Aug 21: ``WTWW: SW100 belts --- Glenn, The SW100 Harris #3 transmitter lost 2 drive belts that allow control of the IPA and plate motors. Spares were replaced and are now working fine. The last SW100 problem is the error light that stays on preventing the high voltage from being applied.? I have not been able to correct this problem YET.`` {with photos} {2 minutes later:} ``The IPA driver and the plate tune motor belts being replaced. Not an easy job. George McClintock 8-21-2024`` Circa 1830 Aug 21 he needs me to monitor as he attempts to bring transmitter up on 9930; may not be getting accurate frequency readouts. I get a big blob of extreme distortion circa 9790-9795, confirmed as WTWW when he cuts modulation momentarily. Correlates with a JBA carrier on 9475 when he is trying to come up there. Something is very wrong with this other transmitter. But at 2130 he notifies me that he did get ``5`` to come up, presumably 5085, so WOR could appear as scheduled UT Saturday at 0300; but no telling what more might happen in meantime. He says the other transmitter will be out for maybe two weeks awaiting manufacture and shipment of replacement part from Germany. Meanwhile he has built a backup studio at the site. Another check about 2230 and 2355: no signals on 5085, 5920, 9475 or 9930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 0037 UT August 22 ------------------------------ Message: 3 Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2024 01:44:46 +0000 (UTC) From: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> To: Glenn Hauser <wghau...@yahoo.com> Cc: "s...@mailman.qth.net" <s...@mailman.qth.net>, "amfmt...@mailman.qth.net" <amfmt...@mailman.qth.net> Subject: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser Log Roundup August 15-21, 2024 Message-ID: <174714114.5712856.1724291086...@mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Please note and spread the word - for those not on a list where my almost-daily all-band but mainly SW log reports appear -- or for those who are but find this a more convenient archive, weekly merged roundups of all these reports in their original form are posted early every UT Thursday via: http://www.worldofradio.com/Hauserlogs.html The latest one direct: https://www.w4uvh.net/ghlogs_2024_0815_0821.txt 73, Glenn Hauser End of Hard-Core-DX Digest, Vol 260, Issue 22 *********************************************
