Also shows another overlap when both are on 6050, *2100-2232*. ELWA has always been no better than JBA here around 0600. Manuel M?ndez wrote: ``Manuel M?ndez, Lugo, Spain, Log in Friol.

If I recall correct it had been reported to be completely gone when 6050 kHz returned after a prolonged break. Only the FM programming was observed anymore.

As a radio amateur I am very clear that the QSOs must be confirmed with their corresponding QSL card, unfortunately this is difficult to do here but not impossible, and I have come to the conclusion that I must adapt to this new QTH to be able to continue enjoying this magnificent hobby, the conclusion is that the most effective way I see to confirm is through LoTW, logbook of the world, however, for those nostalgic for the physical QSL, they can claim it via Spanish mail. The colleague EA5HB, who is my brother, has offered to handle my correspondence, any contribution to pay for the return is well received, you can also claim the QSL card via Spanish BURO (HP1XV via EA5XV) I regret not being able to confirm otherwise because my family finances cannot support 500 QSOs per month directly via UPS or DHL.

Here`s my report to VOA Grimesland: ``To:md...@usagm.gov --- ``Hello Mr Dail, I`m listening to your DRM test around 6090. First noticed DRM on my analog NRD-545 at 0051 UT August 31. It did not seem to be centered on 6090, but roughly 6083-6094. I don`t have DRM capability here so I brought up on the New Hampshire KiwiSDR: http://w1nt.onthewifi.com:8073/ which does show it at 6090 {6085-6095}. VG reception of music only, no announcements or IDs heard but the display showed Murrow Station, Greenville, and QSL requests to you. Several songs followed with pauses, none in Spanish. I could not name most of them until 0116 Beatles` Hard Days Night, but stopped at 0118 for transmitted silence, 0119 a variety of strange sounds as some other song attempted. More of that at 0122 as I am about to dispatch this. I see that the drmrx schedule shows R. Marti 24 hours. This is the first time I`ve run across tests on 6090. What are the actual transmission hours? Does this really have anything to do with Marti? Are you going to put that programming on it? Wonder if you will try Journaline? I copied some of the parameters off the display, which no doubt match what you are sending out. SNR varying 13.0 up to 15.5 dB. xHE_AAC(1001)DRM Test Tx EEP Audio 9.76 kbps. I would be interested to know which GB# transmitter this is, what brand, and what else it may be used for in AM. Are there any active DRM tests on other frequencies? I would also like to know the power for this and antenna azimuth. I would appreciate QSL as offered. If card available, my postal address is: Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. Also monitored with interest the brand new VOA Fulani service on 17630 AM at 1630-1700 today Friday-only apparently, August 30. Which transmitter site is that from? Thanks and 73, Glenn Hauser, Enid OK`` - no reply to any of this by Aug 31. Additional info: on AM tuning, S9+20. At W1NT it showed S8. Music heard at 0055 was soul/jazz, no ID at hourtop 0100. Pauses and other tunes 0103 YL vocal, 0107. Still on at 0130, 0156, 0251 considerably weakened, but off around 0300 when I went back to it after checking 5085 for WOR.

Slogan changed from ``Keep Singing New Songs`` to ``Keeping Silent, No Sounds`` They should put that on their RDS. I`m investigating this further. Would you believe that radio-locator.com says this ``Christian Contemporary`` in KS is owned by FLORIDA PUBLIC RADIO, address in Titusville, yet with a (620) KS AC phone?! And website https://www.krejksns.org -- Indeed they are sibling to KREJ 101.5 ``Keep Ready Expecting Jesus``. Maybe transitioning to FPR ownership, however unlikely? This on website may explain why it`s deadairing for more than a week: ``Dear faithful KREJ/KSNS listeners and support partners, I?m Carol Henry, now the president and manager of the network of eight stations my husband Randy was used of God to build. It?s with a heavy heart still that my sons and I have taken up this mantle that Randy left to us when he entered heaven on April 12th, 2024. Keeping all the stations on the air has put a tremendous responsibility on my shoulders. And without Randy and Mike Henry?s help here in Kansas, I feel we must find new owners to continue this ministry that we know has blessed many lives for 34 years...`` And look at this when you click on KSNS Schedule: ``KSNS Program Schedule Last updated August 18, 2024. Programs in bold are locally produced. We have switched the content on KREJ and KSNS. Now you hear KREJ programming on 91.5 FM and contemporary Christian music on 101.7 FM.`` The KREJ schedule is much more detailed, https://www.krejksns.org/krejschedule.php but note the limited hours for live streaming, much less than onair times, strange, due to costs??: ``KREJ Program Schedule Last updated July 1, 2024. Programs in bold are locally produced. Often short programs are aired multiple times but may only be listed once. Streaming is available Monday - Friday 5 AM - 6 PM and Saturday and Sunday 5 AM - Noon. Click on ?Listen Live? in the menu`` KREJ is 50 kW on 101.7 also in Medicine Lodge. Seems I last logged it in 2021 & 2022 as QRMing Es DX - I would not call it ``semi-local`` now, normally unheard so maybe really has been off, not even dead air, or QRP? I wonder what the other six stations were. They are also on disgraced FB but nothing beyond quoted above (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR) ** U S A. 100.3, Aug 31 at 1801 UT, routine caradio bandscan hits here an ad for ISU Bookstore, and mentions of IOWA! DXMAP shows no Es, and too close anyway; nor APRS map tropo, altho there is some from Iowa into Kansas, supposedly not extending to Enid. Some more local? ads follow, but soon fadeout. This is the only Iowan on 100.3 per WTFDA FMDB: ``KDRB 100.3 DES MOINES 100.0 kW 547.0 m 41-49-48 93-36-54 HD 19A7 100.3 The BUS title & Artist No Program Type or Undefined ADULT HITS 100.3 THE BUS 51332`` Perhaps a propagational fluke, aided by airplane scatter; unseemed meteor scatter. It`s hard to imagine ISUBS advertising outside Iowa or even further from Ames than DM. Unless from a SBG net? First ISU FB game of season is today but radio coverage on KCHA 95.9 at least does not start until 1930 UT, against North Dakota in Ames (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, Aug 31 at 0656, no signal from R. Vanuatu - as soon as I mention on WOR 2258 that it`s been reliable as of Aug 29. Ron Howard and I did not find it on any other known frequency. I am however getting spurbirdies every 40 kHz including 7260 from something local, probably a computer not turned off yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 27200 USB, Aug 31 at 2205, 2- or rather multi-way net in unknown language. A split between regular US CB channels which must end in 5. With Queensland in on 10m, could be any Pacifican (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2251 UT August 31 ------------------------------ Message: 5 Date: Sat, 31 Aug 2024 23:40:16 +0000 (UTC) From: Jota Xavier <odlano...@yahoo.com.br> To: Hard-Core-DX <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: [HCDX] JRX Logs August 31, 2024 Message-ID: <709876479.2319766.1725147616...@mail.yahoo.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 ---------------------------- JRX Logs August 31, 2024 Receiver Tecsun S-2000 & XHDATA D-808 Longwire antenna 10m All times Universal Time ALGERIA ** 17600.
