Glenn Hauser logs August 6-7, 2020

** BRAZIL. 11731 and weaker 11829 approx., August 6 at 2346 suspicious blobs with no readable modulation, but they happen to be ~39 kHz equidistant from: 11780 RNA which is S9+20/30 and distorted; it has been a spur-producer before. The lower one QRMs Romania in Spanish on 11730. Then I try to detect them on some S and N American SDRs but cannot; even at Brasilia 11780 is not very strong by groundwave (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey August 6 at 1456: 12880 the only WOOB in the 12-13 MHz area; 11170, 11150, 11120 JBA carriers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 5925, August 6 at 0430, VOA English going from `Daybreak Africa` to `International Edition`, VG S9+10/20 signal here, a good hour 0400-0500 for US to hear our own station; 100 kW, 350 degrees via BOTSWANA. Also on air at 0300-0400 but azimuth 10 degrees so should be weaker over here. Vietnam 50 kW ND also registered 03-06 on 5925, but no sign of it from midday over there (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7780, August 6 at 0100, WRMI-1 is still OFF, as it was four hours earlier, so a WOR airing is missed. 7780 still2 OFF at 2353 Aug 6 check and at 0200 August 7. What`s wrong? If not back soon, this could be a problem for WORLD OF RADIO, which somehow is scheduled by WRMI on this frequency more than any other, in fact half of the 12 airings, even tho it`s aimed NE missing most of North America west of the east coast.

4980, August 6 at 0120 JBA carrier, presumed the WRMI placeholder with a few-watt exciter only. This and all other scheduled frequencies are on as normal except for AWOL 7780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, Thursday August 6 at 1425, WRMI-3 is on again past scheduled 1400* on weekdays, S5-S7 with SE Asian instrumental tune and then vocal; 1428 Jeff White himself announces offer of a special Freedom Synergy Radio QSL for these broadcasts on ``5800``, and off 1430*, so this is obviously intentional now altho contrary to schedule; and irregular? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 10840-USB, August 6 at 1501, 2-way in Spanish, or rather multi-way net (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
