** ANTARCTICA. 15476, LRA36 carrier detectable Friday Oct 29 at 1340, much weaker than UK on 15480 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. Firedrake search Oct 29, 1332-1340: none found from 8 to 16 MHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 13920.4, approximate center of dirty RHC spur with whine and Spanish modulation, Oct 29 at 1335, like squeal infesting 13680, presumed source rather than clear but equally superstrong 13780. Tried to hear a match 240 kHz below on 13440, but only CODAR there (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** GUATEMALA. 4052.4, tuned in R. Verdad too late Oct 29, carrier still on at 0606, off 0607*. Seemed like it had been a better signal than before (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 9690, Oct 29 at 1329, usual hum, plus non-English talk and announcement, 1330 dead air, 1330.5 opening AIR GOS in English. Jose Jacob says this bit before 1330 is axually the AIR Tibetan service. WRTH A-10 May update shows that is at 1215-1330 on 7420 via Guwahati, 9575 via Delhi, and 11775 via Goa. Yet, Bengaluru picks up this feed from HQ and puts it on 9690 before GOS instead of the haunting AIR IS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDONESIA. 9526-, VOI still missing Oct 29 during the English hour at 1331 check. Not on 11785 either, just the usual Chinese radio war (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [and non]. 2850, KCBS, Oct 29 at 1240 triumphal choral music audible vs noise level; not much else could be heard on 120 thru 60 meters. Next check 1303 much better S9+20 during W&M Korean talk. Then 3480 hetwar also audible, and at 1305 numerous carriers on 60m, but too much noise. LSR here is 1252 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MAURITANIA. While ORTM was again on 7245 as early as 0600 Oct 28, missing again Oct 29 at 0610 check, and not on 4845 either (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MOROCCO. 15340.0, RTM, Oct 29 at 1341 with Arabic music, hum, no HCJB audible, but back on this frequency again. After we found them on 15340 instead of 15341 last week, Mike Barraclough in UK had measured Morocco off-frequency again, Oct 26 at 1452 on 15341.2. Where next? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PERU. 18058-, Oct 29 at 1346, JBA carrier slightly on the low side from third harmonic of R. Victoria, Perú, 6019.3+.
Finally someone else has heard it: David Sharp in NSW, Oct 27 at 0842, i.e. a night-path to him! Measured on 18057.96, also audible on fundamental 6019.321 and // 9720.03 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SWEDEN. Penultimate day for any SWBC from this country, Oct 29, 2010 at 1338 on 15735, sufficient reception from R. Sweden in English, discussing economy. One may want to make a point of haring the ultimate one Saturday here or via Madagascar, Canada relays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3185, WWRB, open carrier only and no BS, Oct 29 at 1233; by 1254, next frequency 9385 was on instead with canned Bible reading modulation (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1536 confirmed on 3185, WWRB, UT Friday Oct 29 at 0330; and on WRMI 9955 webcast Friday at 1430. Next airings are:
WWCR Fri 2030 15825, Sat 1600 12160, Sun 0230 4840, 0630 3215

IRRS: Sat 0800 9515 [maybe, since it is fifth Sat]; Sat 1800 on 7290.
From Nov, next week, these will be Sat 0900 9510, 1900 7290. WWRB, WWCR, WRMI and WBCQ times will not shift one UT hour later until Nov 7 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 720, KDWN Las Vegas NV, cuts on day pattern illegally one hour too early, and suddenly becomes audible vs remnants of WGN, Oct 29 at 1244:38 UT as Heidi Harris turns it right over to traffic report.
990, Oct 29 at 1300 UT, joint ID for AM 990 KRMO Cassville MO, and AM 940 KSWM Aurora MO (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
1460, Oct 29 at 1352 UT I should be getting Spanish KZUE El Reno OK, but am hearing English from Father Jim, N/S-ish, a Marian cultist, so is it EWTN affiliate KHOJ Saint Charles MO? That should be NE/SW.
Or could La Tremenda have some English now? Website http://www.latremendaokc.com/ does not work. At 1400 ID sounds like WAKW in a –ville, but that`s not correct, and could be from something else anyway, perhaps a closer station relaying something originating east of the Miss.
At 1545 UT recheck on groundwave, KZUE is definitely there in Spanish. BTW, Wiki explains that the calls were inherited from a ``zoo`` format on FM, so apparently no significance in Spanish.
1470, Oct 29 at 1351 UT playing ``Wheels``, from N/S bearing, 1352 ``The Morning Mike`` slogan, ``Wake Up, Little Susie``.

UNIDENTIFIED. TP MW carrier search Oct 29 from 1247, downward in USB mode on DX-398: 1323, 1125, 1098, 774, 702, 594. Last one a bit off-frequency, or is it a local blip? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ###
