(Rob Wagner VK3BVW, Mount Evelyn-Vic-AUS; via NASWA Electronic Flashsheet #1170 Sept 22) Thanks Rob, checked that QRG from Jakarta-Cimanggis site at 19.02 UT on Sept 23 via remoted SDR unit at Doha Qatar in ME: 4755.024 kHz S=6 or -90dBm signal tonight.

Very nicely done (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GERMANY. 7390, Sept 23 at 0458-0500* direct, jazz until cutoff with no announcement; whatsit? EiBi: AWR in French to N Africa via Nauen at 0430 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Mon Sept 23 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG S9+30/40 direct, also on 17715 and 15520, never on 15390. News leads with UN SG calling for change in its struxure; no time to listen more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 9875.003+, Sunday Sept 22 at 2040, I`m QRX for VOT `Letterbox` now instead of waiting until a sesquihour later on 11785, which may or may not be on air, and conflicting with a lot of other programming I want to get. This transmission is 500 kW at 105 degrees for India, SE Asia, Australia, NZ, but plenty backward signal into UTwente, S9+15/25 atop some CCI which would be North Korea, should be avoided. At 2045 ends sports, ``always-by-your-side`` promo and `Weekly Analysis` by John ``Adja`` sounds like, a foreign policy researcher, about pagers as weapons. 2050 music. 2057 ``with-you-every-hour`` promo and `Letterbox`: Halil? is ``not that well, voice not much good``, he apologizes but sounds OK to me. 1) Siddartha ---, India, reception report from a regular. 2) USA, John Fryberg? Jr., New Hampshire. Now at 2050 the CCI relents, as VOK stops aiming at ME, but resumes at 2100 toward FE, much weaker. 3) Roman Steiner, Germany; or Norman? 4) Roberto Brizzo? or Guizzo?, Italy. 5) Mr. Markey?, India. 6) Andr?/Anatoly Klepov, Moskva, another regular QSL seeker. 7) Carlo Giordani, Italy. By 2106, time`s up, ``Goodbye, my lovely dear listeners, goodbye``. 2107 music and I tune out (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY [and non]. 11785.005, Sunday Sept 22 at 2159, VOT not off air but S9+50/55 into UTwente, 2200 ~correct timesig and open English, but I don`t need to keep listening since I got `Letterbox` a sesquihour earlier on 9875, q.v. However, I check UTwente again for s/off, but it`s still going at 2259, 2300 timesig, and German, which continues the entire hour! as not scheduled, with the same program themes we hear in English, such as at 2334 for ``Warum?`` At 2356 IS still playing with Portuguese! IDs, but cutoff 2359* before another extraneous language. EiBi shows PP at 00-01 and SS at 01-02 are supposed to be on 9870. Just as well, because at *0000 Chinese on 11785.000 as the ChiCom achieve better frequency accuracy, much weaker than TRT had been. EiBi shows CRI Mandarin at 00-13 via site x. There are several sites x+ but a single x means: ``x-Xian-Xianyang "594" (Shaanxi) 34N12-108E54`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, Sept 23 at 2159, nosig from VOT English direct, but *2200.3 cuts on JBA carrier with Doppler flutter, bad prop? Yet Spain q.v. is inbooming on 17855 et al. By 2203 recheck, 11785 is off, so another occasion trying to come up on 11785 but failing. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2261 monitoring: confirmed Sunday September 22 at 2157 the 2130 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 3975.003-, S9+5/10 into UTwente.

Also confirmed UT Monday September 23 at 0305 the 0300 on Area 51 via WBCQ 6160 -70 Hz = 6159.93, S9/+10 into Georgia SDR, but JBA direct. Also confirmed Monday September 23 at 1938 the 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001+ at S9+15 and 3975.003- at S8/9+10 into UTwente.

As a non-commercial service, voluntary financial support appreciated. Thanks this week for a generous seasonal contribution for autumn from Gerald T. Pollard, Raleigh NC, by check on a US bank to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702. One may also contribute via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. UNIDENTIFIED, at first: 9475, Sept 23 at 2208, zero signal from this WTWW direct, but 9930 is on. However, as I tune across the 9 MHz band at 2209-2219, I encounter numerous extremely distorted spurblobs, cadence of modulation is talk but totally unreadable, quite broad and shifty so no exact frequencies pinnable. Circa: 9416, 9546, 9676, 9682, 9692, 9802, 9828, 9918, 9943, 10059. I compare these on second radio to the only bigsigs on band at this time, 9930 WTWW, 9350 & 9980 WWCR, and there is NO match. So I suspect it`s the 9475 transmitter haywire again. At 2302, all clear, no 9475 nor spurs direct. Not paying close attn but at 2332* noise surge as 9475 carrier has been on but off again. By Sept 24 at *0011.5, 9475 on for half a minute; *0013 on again with open carrier, soon turning up mod of PPPP and stays on. At 0018, bandscan without any of those spurs while 9475 remains clean. Oops, 9475 cuts off again suddenly at 0024*. Cuts back on at *0028.7 JIP PPPP again. 0058 usual QSY announcement to 5085, which comes on about *0059. Stays on past 0150 more or less OK but some clunking sounds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9395, Monday Sept 23 at 2303, WRMI VG direct with `On the Media` soliciting SW reception reports and even audios about SWLing, 2305 into regular opening of show which is about disappearing and endangered weekly alt newspapers such as The Riverfront Times, St. Louis which was recently sold to who knows what and everyone fired! `OTM` has several times on the WRMI skedgrid, but not this one! Supposedly at 2300 Mon it`s `Viva Miami`, i.e. expendable, at 2315 `Midnight Cry Ministry` and at 2330 `Alameda Bible Fellow` which are surely paid for. Not rechecked until 2340 when in fact it`s a ponderous preacher, I think ABF, certainly not OTM, so it did not get played for a full hour! System G sked shows OTM Mondays 2100 and UT Tuesdays 0200 on 9395. OTM originates at WNYC: let`s hope it survive the major cutbacks there. I haven`t got into the habit of listening to it on WRMI, but really should if there`s a reliable complete hour for it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1470, Sept 23 at 0506 UT, ``1470 and 100.3, WMBD`` ID immediately upon tuneacross: Peoria IL, U4 5/5 kW. Somewhat surprising as NRC Pattern book shows very tight lobes a bit CCW from N/S day and night; but radio-locator shows only slightly favoring N/S and not notched thisaway. Website has no ``about us`` or station history; have wondered what call could signify: maybe, ``We Might Be DX``. Here`s a history, https://fromthehistoryroom.wordpress.com/tag/1470-wmbd/ but not about the callsign; however, can it be coincidental that one early announcer was Milton BudD?! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 13790, Sept 23 at 2205, S9/+10 of dead air with Doppler flutter, maybe mix with trace of mod? EiBi shows CNR1 jammer and Sound of Hope starting at 2130; also listed is Ifrikya FM, Ouargla site, ALGERIA, at 1900-0300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0305 UT September 24 End of Hard-Core-DX Digest, Vol 261, Issue 24 *********************************************
