A24 SCHEDULE INFO LINX: http://www.worldofradio.com/index.html
** CUBA. 15140, April 9 at 1530, RHC Spanish S9 but undermodulated and squeezing out spurblobs approx plus/minus 3 kHz, and weaker plus/minus 6. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9685-, April 9 at 1523, gospel? music from stronger of two close signals slightly offset minus. A24 EiBi & Aoki show Furusato no Kaze, from Japan via Paochung, TAIWAN with two Korean broadcasts at 1500-1530 & 1530-1559. Apparently jammed or collided, but nothing else at this hour listed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. Just sent this to OETA in CDT: ``BBC News mixed up --- Could you please straighten out the scheduling of BBC News programmmes? Customarily and as still shown on your website schedule on weekdays, BBCWN America is at 4:30 on World, and 5:30 on HD. Yet today Tuesday something non-BBC was at 4:30 on World; and Context is on HD at 5:30 so we miss BBCWNA completely! However, about 5:35 HD froze both via Optimum cable and your own stream, as received here and as often the case not enough signal to my rooftop antenna to check it OTA. O, finally at 5:41, Tech Diffs... Aha, you were fixing the mixup so WNA starts 5:42 - but will be cut short? Oops, WNA opening, but it`s NOT news but some BBC docu about sickle cell -- I think that`s what was on World an hour before. I wonder if all this is caused at OETA or from PBS. Or BBC itself! BTW when there is Breaking News! it`s pretty obvious that WNA original feed is at 4:00. Maybe you should run it then ``live`` if that would not cause even more problems. Anyhow, I`m glad you are adding stream for World and Create! Regards, Glenn Hauser, Enid`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, April 9, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11934.999, April 9 at 1803, Arabic S9+20/25 into UTwente; 1907 ME music, 1918 ``Yemen`` ID; no QRM or mod problems now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.009, April 9 at 2200 no VOT signal into portable; but by 2208 on R75, S9+20/30 but unfortunately, badax is reading the news. 2223 also her with a commentary mentioning Gaza and Biden but could not follow gist of it; also some ACI splash from 11780 Brasil. Via UTwente at 2250 when measured, S9+50/55! in songs. 2254 badax does the s/off too, for 1230 on 17620 only. 2255 IS. 2256* chopoff just before restart with German IDs. Something`s always awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2237 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday April 9 at 1305 the 1300 on WRMI 9955, S7/S9 direct, no jamming audible. Next: NOTE: There are always line breaks between each time entry, but some recipients eliminate them, like ABDX, merging them all into one unreadable blob, why? I should not have to put a semicolon after each line to separate them! 2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW 2330 UT Tuesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 1200 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB 1230 UT Wednesday Unique R, NSW 5035-USB or 3210-USB [previous #2236][SW suspended but still streamed?] 1930 UT Wednesday SW Radio, Germany 3975 & 6160 2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW 1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160 As noncommercial services, financial support appreciated. Thanks this week to Michael Rosenbaum for a contribution via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com One may also contribute by MO or check in US funds on a US bank to: Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 12160, April 9 at 1541, WWCR-2 with annoying squeal, spurblobs peaking about plus/minus 1.4 kHz. #2 elsewhen on 5935, 7490, 5935. 9980, April 9 at 1543, also lesser squeal from WWCR-4 spurblobs peaking about plus/minus 3 kHz. #4 elsewhen on 5890, 7520. See previous report for explanation (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9475 & 5085, WTWW: George McClintock update as of 2010 UT April 9: 9475 back on air now: yesterday`s interruptions were due to driver overload, arcing and water leakage. Nominal sked is still 20-22 UT PPP & 22-24 others on 9475; 0000-0430 A.W.R. on 5085. Coincidentally I had been looking at the FCC (not HFCC) website which has finally been updated with A24 info as well as B23. As I told George, it does not show the two frequencies active, rather other old ones not in use: 5830, 9930, 12105. He also plans to get 15 MHz on the air; I don`t recall that frequency. 9475 will be starting earlier with additional programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. Correxion: interval between LSR and DX is 104 minutes, not 144, i.e. 1 hour and 44 minutes; fixed: 891 kHz, April 8 at 0707 UT, het upon WLS. Rather late for Algiers, but what else could it be? 104 minutes after their sunrise 0523 today, per gaisma.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 13563.0, April 9 at 1534, JBA CW, a HIFER beacon I can`t copy. LWCA list https://www.lwca.net/sitepage/part15/index.htm suggests YSO, Yellow Springs OH, 13563.04~ which I last heard Dec 19, 2023. Or: ``13563.05~ DAD St George, UT DM37 New, on soon? CW (2022/04)`` Still no entry for RQ, logged twice recently about 13563.5 -- ahá, topping the credit list is ``BH Bill Hensel AAØRQ, Pine, CO``, so ham call of the operator of PCO near same frequency is really AA0RQ as in ARRL/FCC Lookup, among 17 other Hensels. So suspect RQ is also at Pine CO, or even same as PCO. Later at 2220 April 9, it so happens I am hearing RQ again, RQ RQ RQ dash RQ RQ RQ dash, etc., JBA on 13563.5~ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** YEMEN [non]. See SAUDI ARABIA. BTW, I hear that USA has been intercepting arms shipments from Iran to the Houthis, and giving them to Ukraine - neat! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 15466.85 USB approx., April 9 at 1531, 2-way in colloquial Spanish INTRUDERS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 27225 USB, April 9 at 2213, unhuman AI or text-reading voice stands oot among the CB cacophony, sometimes fading under it, about Hamas hostages and the Canadian government; later about robotic dogs vs Labrador retrievers at Korean AF bases, until 2217. Should we call this a N American pirate? It was like a broadcast, not a 2-way contact (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 35790, April 9 at 2209, JBA carrier again, probably 3 x 11930 Radio Martí (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report dispatched at 2319 UT April 9 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
