** CUBA. 5025, July 13 at 0134, R. Rebelde not off the air, but only hearing background? noise, S9+30/40. Still at 0518 or maybe a trace of music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [non]. 9490, UT Mon July 13 at 0124, I catch full ID and schedule uttered twice from R. República, in eastern daylight time presumably, as in Cuba, a running dog of Yanqui Imperialism: M-Sat 9-11 pm, Sun 9-12, which becomes in UT: Tue-Sun 01-03, Mon 01-04 UT - assuming this may be more correct than other versions? This of course via RMI via FRANCE. Then program `Frecuencia Semanal`, S9+30, the SSOB except for 9930 WTWW still on with S9+40/50 of TOMBStone. Indeed still going after 0330 this Monday. Cuba kindly does not jam it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 AM, July 13 at 0127, pirate rock music at S9+20/30, the OSOB and still at 0141. Liquid Radio, per these: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,166196.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 94.3, July 13 at 0059 UT, Stillwater translator legally? IDs as ``K232FI-FM and KSPI Stillwater``, rather than casual slogan of ``Pete 94.3`` which even infests 780, daytimer already off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 105.1, July 13 at 0052, undermodulated rock music in mono on near-local KOSB Perry, instead of stupid sports talk, but also still // 1020 KOKP; maybe just a pause in the SBGs of `Triple Play Sports` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, K17JN-D, Enid satellator of 3ABN, is back on the air, checked July 13 at 0145 UT on my one TV set which can get it with rabbit ears; could have been back for a week or more, not checked daily as my broken rooftop antenna has remained disconnected. Looks like same multi-channel including some audio-only lineup as before. So rabbitears.info may now remove the X next to its entry. Rabbitears.info still does not acknowledge that it continues to display wrong ID as K17JI-D which is really a station in California (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2355 monitoring: confirmed Sunday July 12 at 2000 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.994-, S8 into UTwente across Europe.

Also confirmed UT Monday July 13 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S5/S7 into S Texas SDR; preceding preacher in Spanish cut off at 0029. Also confirmed UT Monday July 13 from 0301.5 on Area 51 webcast only, as WBCQ 5130- rudely cut to sign-off at 0300.00 sharp before preceding program was quite finished, sounded like ``Idio-Audio``, with a postal address in Toronto, back next week, Wednesday at 8pm Eastern, probably not. Since WOR did not appear on WRMI 5850 et al. UT Sunday at 0630, I check what happen 24 hours later UT Monday July 13 at 0645 -- NOT `Legends` but back to WRN. Confirmed Monday July 13 from 1932 the 1930 on SW Radio Gold, Germany, 6160.001+ S9, and 3975.001 S9+5.

Could BS about to make a comeback on RMI?? 9395 during this hour is supposed to be SMTV, and usually is. BS audio on 9395 could not be due to cross-modulation as there is no such signal elsewhere on the 9 MHz band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Some Es FM DX about. but not to here, despite a quick tunearound. On 97.3, UT Mon July 13 at 0057, it`s `American Country Countdown`, and an Upside Cashback ad, which is apparently inter/national. Now, there`s a show which does it the right way! with an easily searchable affiliate list: https://www.americancountrycountdown.com/where-to-listen/ There are three on 97.3 and it`s obviously my closest one at the timespan given: KKJQ-FM Garden City KS, Sun 6-10pm CDT. Tail on the Q in that font is barely visible so at first I thought it were KKJO. WTFDA FMDB shows: KKJQ 97.3 GARDEN CITY KS COUNTRY Q 97 FM 33690 100.0 kW 244.0 m 37-46-48 100-27-36 2B62 KKJQ THE DAWG - 317 km/197 st mi - hardly ever heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. We have another ``Radio La Ley`` mystery, this one on 1190, now that the previous one on 760 has been traced to KMTL in AR. July 13 at 0525 UT as I tune across 1190 I hear ``Radio La Ley`` mixing with weather in English about Nebraska, where there are no 1190s. I keep listening; at 0559 Englishers are dominant with full IDs: ``AM 1190 & $tereo 102.9`` which correlates with KVSV Beloit KS U4 2300/90 watts; and at 0600 Catholic Radio Network, 1190 and 95.3 FM, which is KDMR Kansas City MO with EWTN, altho the 95.3 is not shown in the NRC AM Log. The Spanish station never heard with any specific ID but frequent announcements between Mexmx songs by SHVA = super-hype voice actor, promoting it for covering El Mundial 2026 such as at 0602; ``a todo el mundo`` at 0632, 0635. A fuller non-ID at 0641, ``La Tremenda, somos la autoridad, Radio La Ley``. These are on my E/W longwire, so at 0648 I get a rough DF on it with the handheld DX-398: ENE/WSW. 0652, ``RadioLey.com`` - that is HQ in Culiacán, Sinaloa, where there are no 1190 stations, and has a listen link which does not work: http://172.16.119.17:9123/Culiacan I was suspecting Ley be a network feed deliberately avoiding any local IDs or references. But I had already searched the entire IRCA Mexican Log, where the word Ley does *not appear even once* in the entire document, leading me to figure it`s a USA thing. Who we are from the website: ``nosotros -- Radio Ley es una empresa del corporativo Megamedios, especializada en desarrollar y ejecutar actividades promocionales en tiendas de autoservicio de Casa Ley en el noroeste del país, ofrecemos servicios de Estrategias Comerciales, Promotoría, Publicidad y Actividades de BTL, con la garantía de generar Resultados Exitosos. Con nosotros partes desde el diseño del concepto creativo hasta la ejecución y evaluación de actividades en el punto de venta.`` -- that is plenty vague, but does refer to NW Mexico. Apparently whether the ``La`` precede Ley is not significant, as it may be seen or heard either Way. Unless there have been a total linguistic rebranding, this may be a case of some US station already SS, of which there are four on 1190 per NRC AM Log: KNUV Tolleson AZ U4 5000/250, La Onda WPSP Royal Palm Beach FL U2 690/410, La Primera WLIB New York NY U4 10000/30000, La Exitosa 98.7 WJPJ Humboldt TN D1 420, La Poderosa {sic} My DF would apply to any but the one in FL. XEPZ in Juárez would be a likely source by proximity and direxion, if it`s no longer ``Máxima 99.1, tu Estilo de Vida`` -- another possibility: Radio (La) Ley is plugged into as an overnight filler by stations still known primarily as something else. Ideas? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 6900-LSB, July 13 at 0128, Spanish `peskies`` saying this is a good place for principiantes = beginners; but some talkovers, not hearing each other, or not courteous. Presumably Mexicans (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 9050 AM, July 13 at 1445, S9+25 open carrier, no clix audible and does not end in -6. I often tune this range listening for the `Presidential pirate`` on 9025, unheard for long time. Off by next check circa 1915 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 21417 approx., July 13 at 0115, extremely distorted SSB signal I cannot resolve by LSB or USB tuning back and forth. Suspect it`s someham, not necessarily local, putting out a third harmonic from 7139, not checked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2046 UT July 13 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
