Re: ``12140, Feb 18 at 1237, JBA carrier as I check for possible leapfrog of both very strong 11760 over 11950 another 190 kHz beyond; 12140 is weaker than 12300 = 2 x 6150. Something`s always wrong at RHC. At this early hour, 15140 & 15230 are JBA carriers, while 13780.0 not way-off frequency today, has built up to good level, the OSOB, and no spurs on 13 or 15 MHz`` Altho I am of course partial to Cuban leapfrogs, as a JBA carrier, 12140 at this time could also have been fundamentally IBB Kuwait, 250 kW at 70 degrees, during the scheduled multi-hour Dari/Pashto Radio Azadi service (Glenn Hauser, Feb 25, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** CUBA. 15700, Feb 26 at 1448, CRI Plus relay is S9+30 but suptorted with modulation spikes only, continuing a slightly different wrongness from one day to the next (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1971, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** SPAIN. 9690, Monday Feb 25 at 2309, REE`s Justin Coe ending some news about the Catalunya demonstration situation, before he can get back to some flamenco guitar music, his continuing tribute to Paco de Luc?a, apparently on the fifth anniversary of his death. Ken Zichi has also noted how this service is mainly music, evidently according to Coe`s preferences, rather than an emphasis on news (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1971, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 4102.3, Feb 26 at 0730, the ``W`` beacon somewhere in the California desert. Sends that ID a few times a minute, but in between series of dits which signify wind speed on its anemometer, and other readings, battery voltage and temp.

Altho the schedule would imply a single transmitter switches between 5970 and 12050, Glen Tapley once explained to me that they axually use different transmitters for high and low bands (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 17775, Feb 26 at 1502, 1529, 1659, 1901, still no signal from KVOH, altho Ray Robinson of KVOH notified me at 2339 UT Feb 25, ``We're back!

Re 1120, my log of KCRN, Wayne Heinen, Editor, NRC AM Radio Log replies Feb 24 on the nrc-am gg: ``As to Limon on 1120, only calls heard so far are old canned KLIM even though the CDBS lists them as KCRN now? 73`` Paul Walker, Laramie, WY also replies, as I had found 1120 // 1060: ``Just an FYI guys, Catholic Radio Network has been told 1120 is IDing improperly. It became KCRN in 12/2018 and still IDs as KLIM. They had some kind of failure Saturday [Feb 23], leaving them with a dead carrier, then completely off for awhile. When they came back, they had a network-wide conga-line-style ID. Normally, KLIM/KCRN IDs by itself and its programming is usually separate from 1060 KRCN. That 1060 usually runs the same feed as KEXS 1090 Kansas City and 1120 runs something else, but when 1120 came back on, it was running the same feed at KRCN 1060, at least temporarily`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 1130, Feb 25 at 1926 UT, rock music means KLEY Wellington KS, 250 watts at daytime, is back on the air after missing for weeks if not months. Yes, 1932 local weather, and ``From the Wheat Capital of the World, The Wave 100.3 and 1130``. OK signal, no breaking up. Didn`t get it checked whether still on air next day. As for slogan, Enid might dispute that, but how do you rate a Wheat Capital? Total grain elevator storage capacity, and whether full every harvest season? It seems that Enid has the third-largest capacity in the world; I bet Wellington can`t beat that, but it has made the most of the WC designation. Its county, Sumner, previously got official Kansas state designation as W.C., and it was just another step up for Wellington to the World? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ** U S A. 1480, Feb 25 at 2322 UT, another check for Vietnamese on KBXD Dallas. Today it`s making a SAH of 96/minute or 1.6 Hz vs KQAM Wichita. YL is speaking, but the more I hear, the less certain am I that it be Vietnamese at this time; certainly a tonal SE Asian language, perhaps Khmer, which is sort of a mix between Viet and Thai/Lao as the geography would imply. Or maybe Viet with a peculiar accent; or a tribal dialect? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) UNIDENTIFIED. 3237.0, Feb 26 at 0740, dead air at S8, goes off, and back on.
