** CUBA. 1620, Feb 24 at 0701:11.5, two-tone timesignal 71.5 seconds late, and
R. Rebelde ID (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 6165, UT
Wed Feb 24 at 0644, RHC DXers Unlimited is just barely modulated here; // 5040
and 6100 OK, weakest 6060 middling, 6000 somewhat suptorted.
11840, Feb
24 at 1414, strong open carrier/dead air from RHC, which manages to modulate on
11760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GREECE. 9934.951, Feb 23
at 2052, ERT whine is very poor centered here, and suffering from 9930 WTWW
splatter.
9934.94, Feb 24 at 0625, ERT whine at S5, trace of program
modulation --- and WTWW is STILL on 9930, but too weak to splatter now (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MALAYSIA [and non]. 11665, Feb 24 at
1419, CCI between two equal stations, one music, one talk, Asian? One is
certainly MALAYSIA, which failed to register with the HFCC, which shows the
other is: CRI English, due west via Urumqi, East Turkistan during this hour
only. Egypt and Japan also use 11665 at other hours (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, Wed Feb 24 at 0655, RNZI is AWOL
again from AM frequency, but blasting S9+20 DRM noise from 11685 to 11695 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN [and non]. 15550, Feb 24 at
1530, JBA carrier here, much weaker than 15545 R. Dabanga via VATICAN. Evidently
the Sudanese jammer *still* hasn`t caught on that Dabanga shifted to 15545 weeks
ago (and which still hasn`t got around to registering that change with HFCC),
with nothing else listed on 15550 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1813 monitoring: confirmed UT Wed Feb 24
at 0030 on WBCQ 9330v-CUSB after 0029 IS & ID runup, now back to full
strength at S9+10, equivalent to 9265 WINB. Also confirmed Wed Feb 24 at 1415.6
on WRMI 9955, fair signal, no jamming (following a new FG Radio mentioning UK
possibly quitting the EU). Next:
Wed 2200 WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Thu 0030
WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S
A. 9275, Feb 23 at 2045, no signal from WMLK carrier test, unlike yesterday.
Couldn`t monitor continually between 17 and 22 authorized hours (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Feb 24 at 0625, WTWW-2 day
frequency is on here in the nightmiddle! With `Midnight [sic] in the Desert` YL
going to a break; poor at S8, and nothing on 5085; topic wormholes to be resumed
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3185, Feb 24 at 1345,
WWRBS is still on air, its JBA carrier thru the daypath; Dave had indicated this
would be closing at midnight = 0500 UT. Apparently frequencies above the 3 MHz
band are no longer in use at all (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1080+, Feb 24 at 0713, country music is ripping up KRLD
Dallas talk, loops NW/SE, and only by nulling this can I get KRLD more or less
clear from the SSE. Can`t be anything but KSLL Price UT, 10 kW daytimer! once
again on air at night. Listed as Rock/OLD, so maybe crossing over a bit. It`s
also slightly off frequency to the hi side making fast SAH with KRLD (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1370, after rehearing 1380
KRCM on day power, I find something else interesting a channel below (other than
nearest KGNO Dodge City KS, which I NEVER hear, day or night --- is it really
active?) --- Feb 24 at 0706 UT, ID for KCRV and KCRVradio.com, country music on
``AM 1370 KCRV``, loops east-west. It`s Caruthersville MO, right on the
Mississippi River across from TN in the extreme SE corner, address in Kennett
further west, 1000/63 watts U1 = always non-direxional, per NRC AM Log (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1380, Feb 24 at 0658 UT, same
Spanish ad for Iglesia del Pueblo on Pasadena Blvd., as I have heard before from
KRCM Shenandoah TX, so I keep tuned to hear if they will finally legally ID? NO,
at 0659 UT, ID ONLY for KMIC 1590; 0700 UT into Spanish hymn. I check 1590 a
minute later, and nothing directly from that. KRCM is still dominating 1380
here, enough to squeeze past local 1390 KCRC.
KRCM emitting new 22 kW day
power toward the northeast at night allowed David Hamilton, UK, to DX it Feb 22
at 0710, as he inquired of RealDX, hoping it wasn`t merely the Peruvian again (I
would settle for that!). Rodney Johnson, NV, points out:
``I too have
been noticing that the "Electric Field Strength pattern plot PDF"
from
the main Query Result page is almost always 404. However when you click the
"Pattern Data for KRCM" link
and
go to the bottom of the data table you will see an "Electric Field Strength
pattern plot (PDF)" [identical] link that usually works!
Only
for directional arrays of course. It appears they have a big wide lobe centering
on 30° in daytime and a single tower omnidirectional at night --- supposedly!

UNIDENTIFIED.
5030-, Feb 24 at 1350, JBA carrier slightly on lo side. Some exotic
Asian/Pacifican, or just another All Indian off-frequency? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5959.957 approx., Feb 24 at 1354, JBA
carrier, another mystery from PacificAsia? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

UNIDENTIFIED. Another batch of Indonesish QSO-pirates,
intermittent in USB, Feb 24 at 1424-1430: 11455 (soft-spoken), 11450
