Glenn Hauser logs August 23-24, 2018

** AUSTRALIA. 11750, Aug 24 at 1311, fair signal with S Asian song, then YL lengthy contact info with lots of numbers, partly in English, including P O Box in New Delhi, e-mail, text?/phone. 1315 into another language. Aoki/NDXC shows RBA on day 6 = Friday going from Hindi to Gujrati (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 15034-USB, Aug 24 at 1425, Winnipeg – no report received; Edmonton - no report received; ID twice as Trenton Military, correct timecheck. Next, Aviation Weather Report from Comox (BC) succeeds, timestamped earlier in this hour. Propagation is so poor with SF in the mid-60s that often this is barely/not audible (Glenn Hauser, OK DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5990, Aug 24 at 0138, S9+20/30 of dead air, obviously neglected to turn off CRI relay transmitter by 0100*. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6000, Aug 24 at 0236, RHC English is suptorted, // 6165 OK. At 0409, 6000 still suptorted, but 6060 is in English at least an hour earlier than scheduled, with sufficient modulation, instead of Spanish, but 6165 is best and S9+20/30. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6100, Aug 24 at 0542, RHC English is JBA here; 6000 is S9 and still suptorted; 6060 is S9-S9+10; 6165 is best of the 49m, but 5040 is VG S9+20 best of all The Cuban Five. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 11860, Aug 23 at 2030 check, R. Martí is atop RHC in Portuguese, and some jamming noise in third place. The collision continues. Let`s see if RM take Saturday and Sunday off 11860 like last weekend (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6770-AM, Aug 24 at 0141, JBA carrier on the characteristic frequency of the ``Old Time Radio pirate`` supposedly originating from a museum as part of their display. 

On almost eveningly chex of the shorter 43m pirate band, nothing heard since Wolverine, 6950-USB, Aug 18 at 0004 for Aretha. It`s vacation time? Harold Frodge, MI, says ``despite MANY checks``, as of August 23 he had heard no pirates since August 6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7470, Aug 24 at 0310, YHWH is JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SAUDI ARABIA. 17614.969, Aug 24 at 1420, hardly anything is propagating on 16m, not even KVOH, but a JBA carrier here from off-frequency BSKSA; while slightly stronger JBA carrier on 17705.002 is another BSKSA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1944 monitoring: since a surprise airing occurred last Thursday August 16 at 2330 on WBCQ 7490v, I`m sure to check this week, August 23 --- NO, back to the previously scheduled show, `Camp Constitution Radio`, which is probably a bonus repeat of his original airing on Mondays (and I think he said this was at 7 pm instead of 7:30). Presumably changed last week only, since the regular Wed 2100 WOR airing on 7490 was missed due to lightning closedown. So much for that. And not on 9330 either, Thu Aug 23 at 2330. So far, WOR 1944 has not appeared anyday on 9330. Next:

** U S A. 5130v, Aug 24 at 0140, this WBCQ remains off, no more duplicative BS. Vague Overcomer Ministry websked claims ``mostly 24 hours`` on WBCQ 9330, 5130 --- and 3265! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** U S A. 7730, UT Fri Aug 24 at 0412, VORW musing on how he has over a million YouTube followers, his main ``job``, and apparently how he finances all these introspective hours on WRMI. Skedgrid shows DX/ish programs Tue-Sat at 0400-0500 on 7730: Tue, Broad Spectrum; Wed, Frecuencia al Día (60 minutes??); Thu, La Rosa de Tokio; Fri, VORW; Sat, Media Net+ (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9475, Aug 24 at 1419, no signal from WTWW-1; instead is still on night frequency 5830 with PPPP, VG and the SSOB by far (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11856.868, Aug 24 at 1308, JBA carrier, seems to be ionospherically propagated rather than local device. Could R. Aparecida, Brasil be active this far off 11855? 11780 RNA/RNB is on and quite audible now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
