Commonly heard, but about time I relog it for the record; tuned to 345-USB. See also USA [and non] for YLD on 335. Tonight there is heavy S9 buzz blocking most signals above 380, but clearer below (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 6100, Feb 27 at 0619, RHC S9+10 in Spanish instead of English. What else? The rest in English: 6060, but only poor S7-S9; 6000 and 9700 are both VG S9+10/20; At 0658 I catch 6060 just cutting off, and find also off are 9700, 6100 and 5040. But at 0700, 6000 still on at S9+30, re-opening the English hour with ``jam-packed1`` program previews per ``Ed Newman`` hype. O, my, countless listeners are going to be frustrated, since at 0715 recheck and probably long before, 6000 too has been turned off; all gone. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 13634 S3, 13766 S1, 13833-trace, all approx., vs 13830-AM station, FMish spurblobs with F# tones out of RHC 13700-AM which is S9/+10 but undermodulated. ~66 kHz intervals, but can`t detect one circa 13568, nothing to block 13565 K6FRC beacon. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** FRANCE. 17545v, Feb 27 at 1538, JBA carrier, presumed Biato Yaikl clandestine via off-frequency Issoudun site, only on Sat & Wed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEWFOUNDLAND [and non]. 11279-USB, Feb 27 at 1554, Gander Radio ATC with a flight, referring it to 5616, selcalls. 5616 is also a Gander channel for North Atlantic shared with Keflavik and Shannon. 11279-USB, Feb 27 earlier at 1548, thought I heard Andrews mentioned, and with very heavy echo-delay, at equal level, too much for mere long-path, rather as if from two unsynchronized sites, or some looping in one`s output? Or was this really Gander, too, sounding similar. Strangely enough, EiBi`s thoro ute info shows nothing but VOLMET from Tashkent on 11279, 24 hours! More 2-way at quick recheck 1906. Searching 11279 on the UDXF iog gets many more Ganders and aha, this: ``Re: long or medium delayed echoes --- Dave 07/28/18 #83761 As I recall, 11279 is used by Gander for Arctic region coverage using remote transmit/receive site(s) in the Canadian north, including near Iqaluit. It is possible they had more than one site keyed, but more likely than not you simply caught some interesting X/O mode interaction with/through the Auroral Oval which is currently dipping down into central Canada. -- Dave Wright K3DCW, FM18qt, Maryland, USA, "Real radio bounces off the sky"`` Also, strangely enough, 11279 kept showing up as a frequent group in 5-digit spy numbers copying (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 338-MCW kHz, Feb 27 at 0703 UT, ND beacon RYN, 400 watts from Tucson - Ryan, Arizona, but tuned to 335-USB; mixing with dash and YLD, which is really on 335, 1000 watts from Chapleau, Ontario. Unusual to hear a non-local 3 kHz away (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 13565-CW, Feb 27 at 1539, JBA CW, too weak to copy but well-presumed to be the usual 1.8-milliwatt K6FRC, Patterson CA, HIFER beacon in a rare appearance; vs trace of CODAR QRM which is much more prevalent below 13500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2075 monitoring: awake at 1309 Sat Feb 27, JBA algo on 15770 from WRMI, probably me, but can`t be positive. Did anyone hear it?

NO, it`s QSO ham show with Ted interviewing someone who has been getting hate mail. Long ago when properly on day frequency 9475, it would break away Saturday afternoons for ham stuff. Now 5085, WTWW-2 night frequency is also running in daytime with distorted rock music, S7-S9 vs noise level S7; so Ted is having it both ways, the SFAW owners in Colorado getting zero airtime for PPPP.
