A number of other Canadians audible, but this one not often. No Blitz storms anywhere in or around North America (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 9700, Dec 23 at 0727, RHC English still on here only, S9 but undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** GERMANY [non]. For the first time this year, the annual `Gruss an Bord` from NDR carried on SW for mariners asea, Dec 24 at 1800-2100 was supposed to employ WRMI, on 15770, among several other sites. But from 1800 onwards, 15770 continued with the SMTV cult as normally scheduled. I reminded Jeff about 15770 at 1806, but still SMTV at 1828. 15770 is JBA into UTwente anyway, so maybe not good into North Atlantic either. ``Go Tell It On The Mountain`` at 1831. 1845 still SMTV on 15770. And at 1936 recheck. 6080 Uzbekistan is best into UTwente, tho it can`t be aimed thataway. [Later:] Axually, HFCC shows 6080 Uzbekistan is 301 degrees aimed back toward Europe, CIRAF 27-28-29 with 125 kW. It also claims WRMI 15770 is 125 kW, despite all Okees being 100 or less. Meanwhile, Harald Kuhl, Germany reported to BDXC that the SW program in German from 1800 was not `Gruss an Bord`, but something else. He phoned MBR and they got it corrected by 1900. So, screwups everywhere. I stopped checking 15770 before 2000, but Richard Langley reports: ``So will the frequencies be extended by an hour so the full three hours can be transmitted? Likely not. And still no joy with WRMI on 15770 kHz. At 2000 UTC, Radio for Peace International started. By about 2030 UT, WRMI is now broadcasting Gruss an Bord on 15770 kHz. Don't know when it started. Usual powerful signal into NB. -- Richard Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KOREA SOUTH [and non]. 6000, Dec 24 at 0741, checking RHC frequencies but this one normally off by a sesquihour earlier, yet something weak is here and also with jamming noise. Must be Echo of Hope, instead of alternate 5995. No report from Ron this week about its current jumparounds, but Dec 24 Aoki has it on 6000 from 0500 but no indication of jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 486 kHz, Dec 24 at 2040-2047 UT, no signal detectable at closest SDRs in northern North Carolina, for special Fessenden commemoration broadcast, including music, scheduled for 24 hours starting 2000 UT Dec 24 (and again Dec 31), from WI2XLQ. This year`s publicity does not specify location but last year it was Forest, Virginia, a suburb of Lynchburg. Unfortunately no Kiwi SDRs nearby. Power not specified either but presumably very low, ``Part 5``. Last year it was 150 watts carrier output, maybe 15 watts ERP. Perhaps will get out better at night, if really on. Here is *last* year`s info: http://www.arrl.org/news/virginia-radio-amateur-will-commemorate-1906-fessenden-christmas-eve-broadcast And less detail this year: http://www.arrl.org/news/view/experimental-station-will-recreate-1906-fessenden-transmissions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2118 monitoring: confirmed first SWBCs, UT Friday December 24 at 0130 on WRMIs: 5850 VG direct, 7780 S9+10/20 into UTwente. Also confirmed UT Fri Dec 24 at 0330 on WRMI 5985, JBA direct and into Quer?taro SDR, but S9+5 off the back into Knoxville. Also confirmed Fri Dec 24 at 1530 on WRMI 9955, S9/+10 direct, no jamming audible. Also confirmed Fri Dec 24 at 1915 on IRRS SW 7290 via Bulgaria, and 918 kHz via AM Italia, Villa Estense, the latter VG S9+18 into nearby Noale KiwiSDR; but 7290 JBA into UTwente. I had started listening to both about 1903, when 7290 seemed dead air at S8 with heavy ChiCom ACI de 7290 unless LSB-tuned; but 918 VG S9+18 with `Feature Story News`, 1904 ID, 1905 ``UN News``, 1908 music. By 1907 I could detect same modulation on 7290. WOR still going on both at 1925, but not positively confirmed lasting until 1944; rechecked at 1959, 918 interrupts a commentary about Iran vs USA, for ``IRRS signing off`` with the other A?da theme, but 918 stays on air with FSN again from 2003.5.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 6115, Dec 23 at *2159, WWCR-1 is back on this frequency, just signing on and 2200 into Spanish, as I tune in during WORLD OF RADIO 2118 recording. Notice about 6115 & 3215 being off the air has been removed from website. Span here is 22-02 UT. No 6114 RTTY audible now, but WWCR so strong that could block, or discourage, it. 3215, Dec 24 at 0735, other WWCR-1 frequency is also back, with TOMBS, S9+10/20. Span is 02-12 UT. Harold Frodge, MI, had heard 3215 as early as 0202 UT Dec 23. 4840, Dec 24 at 0735, this WWCR is S9+20/30 of dead air instead of TOMBS; happens all too frequently; or rather, make that: not frequently enough. 5890 still going with S9+40 of BS; and 5935 PMS hitting S9+50!
