** CHINA [and non]. 15565, Sept 17 at 1327, CNR1 jammer is very poor, but making
het with 15567 carrier, no doubt V of Tibet via Tajikistan, as per Aoki at
1315-1340, after shifting from 15568 at 1306-1315. With extremely poor
propagation from E Asia, have not heard any of these for weeks, and still no
CNR1 OOB jammers in scan of 12-18 MHz; but one other is surely the CCI on 15115
under VOA Thailand. Next up on 15575 is an even weaker JBA carrier from the
so-called N American service of KBS World Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** U S A. 1480, Sept 17 at 1213-1220 UT,
I am monitoring for the allegedly reactivated KBXD Dallas TX --- no sign of it
despite official FCC September sunrise for 50 kW day power at 1215 UT --- just
KQAM Wichita with unID talkhost dissecting the latest Republican debate. This
source also thinx it`s off the air, and even refuses to display any coverage
patterns:
Mark
Sills in Denton/Dallas confirms NO signal on 1480 around 1650 UT Sept 17 (he
also says R. Disney, KMKI 620 Plano has been off for at least two days --- sale
to Salem; and KKLF 1700 is irregular, sometimes extremely distorted
overmodulation) (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1510,
Sept 13 at 0240 UT, ``When the music has to be the best, 93.7 The Rock``, after
Elvis, Smoky Robinson, Rolling Stones, very good, dominating. To be expected
with 10/25 kW, higher power at night, from KCKK Littleton CO, address in
Lakewood, both Denver suburbs; while the 93.7 is merely K229BS. Both day and
night patterns on 1510 shoot tightly NNE/SSW, right at us in northern NM. This
must blow away 25-watt-night KOAZ Isleta/Albuquerque! But which of course has
its own FM duplicate. Nevertheless, I logged KCKK last March and April in Enid,
as in DXLD 15-09 and 15-14 (Glenn Hauser, caradio near Questa NM, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1530, Sept 11 at 0547 UT, in Spanish mentions Luz
Radio, ##5.1 FM, but this must be red herring. Constantly cuts out audio for 2
or 3 seconds, but good signal; ``por primera vez en la radio de Austin``, música
tropical. It`s certainly KZNZ, CoL Creedmoor TX, with address in El Paso per NRC
AM Log, also rather misleading: radio-locator shows an address really in Austin.
Creedmoor is too small to appear in my Rand McNally but presumably
somewhere around Austin, not El Paso. Loops approx. east/west from here. 0550 UT
tabloid news, still cutting out; family advice for madres, mentions La Bella
Durmiente, Blanca de Nieve, quite dominant signal past 0600 UT no ID, plug
`Dentro` algo program ``a las 12, hora del Centro``; 0601 UT confusing IDs
copied as KLVE HD4 95.5 FM Bastrop, KLVE HD4 95.1 FM, ``Radio Mujer, el sexto
sentido de la radio``; still cutting out. Radio Mujer is the listed name for
KZNZ, but I can`t find a correlation in Texas with either FM frequency and KLVE
is not a correct call. Bastrop is another suburb of Austin. Radio Mujer
apparently originates in Mexico, per link from Radio-locator, but no affiliate
list for either country found at http://www.radiomujer.com.mx/
(Glenn Hauser, Santa Rosa NM, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
1530, Sept 13 at
0222 UT, KZNZ, Spanish with 512-area code ad, mentions 95.1 FM, audio again
cutting out during break, but on to football game coverage, no cutting out from
that remote program source (Glenn Hauser, caradio near Questa NM, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1550, Sept 17 at 0619 UT, something new dominating
frequency, immediate ID as ``The songs you love, and it`s all gospel, WPFC
1550``, on to ad apparently from Louisiana. Yes, it`s listed as 5000/42 watts
U1, ``Winning People For Christ`` in Bâton Rouge``. Must be on day power. With a
W-call, I assume it`s on the left bank of the Mississippi, like the bulk of the
capital city. No, per
site
is definitely west of the Miss, NW of center city in a crook of the River (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
