Brasília SDRs are offline; at Pardinho is JBA, but Campo gets S2 from
LRA36: music and talk; 1528 ``Nacional Antártida Argentina, en todo el
país, la radio pública`` --- I assume they think this is relayed all
over Argentina on the
** EGYPT. 9899.607, Feb 22 at 2156, R. Cairo very strong into UTwente,
slightly less suptorted than usual but still unlistenable. Something`s
always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GREECE. 9420, Feb 22 at 2314, VOG is back on after missing a few
days, making us fear it`s gone for
** EGYPT. 9899.606+, Feb 21 at 2107 no signal yet into UTwente, but by
2116 recheck it`s on, S9+30 in suptorted English, totally unusable.
Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** GERMANY [non]. 15215, Feb 21 at 1544, JBA carrier, presumed AWR
Guam or Sri Lanka, both sites
** CUBA. 7355 & 6030 & 5980, Feb 20 at 0723, wall-of-noise jamming,
and slightly lighter pulse jamming on 7375, 7435, all Radio Martí
frequencies which are OFF the air at this hour. Something`s always
wrong at the incompetent DentroCuban Jamming Command. Think how many
undernourished Cubans could
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Feb 19 at 1515, NO signal of LRA36 this
Saturday into three Brazilian SDRs. When active, normally closes no
earlier than 1530 and often much later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 515 MCW kHz, Feb 19 at 0706 UT, PN, 25-watt ND beacon at
PoNca City is OFF again;
** EGYPT. 9899.605v, Feb 18 at 2115 via UTwente, certainly R. Cairo on
signature off-frequency, and signature extremely distorted but not
suppressed modulation. Should be in English, but my brain cannot lock
onto it as English, or Arabic, but what? Intonation seems more like
Russian, maybe, which

Bells, i.e. BBC about to open one hour only of English aimed 114

still transmitting; sleepyrators
** CUBA. 11850, Feb 18 at 0052, RHC Spanish is S+30 but as usual, JBM,
suptorted. Parasitic carriers with no modulation detected but
achieving S8 on 11840, S9 on 11860, which by this hour bears no
jamming or Yemening. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

Montevideo, S1-S2 with 1525 ID, 1527 Antárdida themesong, past 1547
but gone before 1603. Sam Sánchez, Oregon had it as early as 1414 via
Brasília; and Wolfgang
** EGYPT. 9899.60, Feb 15 at 2121 check, R. Cairo is 100% improved: NO
signal into UTwente! However, at 2204 UT, Andy Reid, Ontario tells the
WOR iog: ``With varying degrees of audio quality, I don’t believe it
is the transmitters. They are on now in English 9900 with some audio
squeaking though.
** CUBA. 9700, Feb 14 at 0712, S9/+10 of dead air, trace? of
modulation, the only RHC frequency still emanating. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 15140, Feb 14 at 2228, RHC still on here, S9+5 in Spanish,
instead of scheduled 2130* after French // much weaker
** CUBA. 6100, Feb 13 at 0732, only RHC still on, but Spanish instead
of English, S9/+40 without humbuzz; to continue with weekly 0800
Esperanto? zzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

Saturday, JBA S1 music into Brasília SDR; LRA36 ID; Pardinho a trace
in the noise; Campo best at S2. 1550 about ``la noche polar``; 1554
``todo por hoy``, Antártida themesong and apparently off, nothing
further heard. Sam
This raises more questions.
Why did we never hear about this before it was busted?
So what was the exact location? Only additional info in the Newsletter is a
TDoA map showing northern Italy.
Name of ``station``? Operated by whom or what organization?

** AZORES. 6114, Feb 11 at 0652, RTTY INTRUDER is back, S9/+10 vs JBA
6115 carrier from Japan. Believed to be USN Azores (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Feb 11 at 0653, RHC English, S9+10/20 including big
humbuzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC. Others are clear: 6000 VG
S9+20/30; at
** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Feb 10 at 0701, JBA carrier, surely R.
Kiribati; while no trans-Atlantic signals are making it. A few nights
ago, 846 was stronger than usual, but never able to pull any audio
from it. Tnx to Gary DeBock, here`s what it would be like:

1558, feared too late, but LRA36 still on air with music, VP S3 into
Campo, Brasil SDR, no better at Brasília #2. Still going at 1601, but
1602 QRMed by unID 2-way on 15475.00 USB exactly. Maybe Spanish but so
colloquial I
** AUSTRALIA. 2368.43, Feb 8 at 2102, S4-S5 with fades of Greek songs
past 2125 via VK2GGC SDR, R. Symban. There has been lots of good
discussion about this by nearby Aussies in the WOR iog (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. 15190.10, Feb 8 at 2323, JBA S1-S5 of talk, music? Even so
it seems
** CHINA. 7500, Feb 6 at 2238, Chinese JBA S7-S8, presumably CNR1
jammer as always more likely to be heard than target, in this case VOA
via Thailand this hour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 11880, Feb 6 at 2236, NO signal from RHC in English. 11850 is
on but dead air or trace of

special for a bihour, this time via ARMENIA. S9+5/15 into UTwente,
signal good but modulation level fading down and up, and it`s quite
lo-fi, deficient feed to site? Zach Liangas had same reaxion:
``Andorra 7400 final report!
