** NIGERIA. 7254.925, March 9 at 0638, VON Hausa is good at S9+20 and still no
// 9690-. In March Communication of the British DX Club, Dave Kenny says the
7255 transmissions are all from the Abuja studio and site, at 06-09 and 18-21.
All others, irregular between 09 and 18, whether on 9690, 11770 or 15120, are
from VON Lagos studio and site, essentially two different stations, each
identifying with the origin (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U
S A. 15580, Tue Mar 8 at 2110-2138, VOA One music mix, i.e. Larry London
presenting rock music during the only hour Greenville is currently on this
frequency; what a waste of a VG signal even off the back from Africa beam.
Artists mentioned included Ellen and Zed (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. Correxion: A typo within a report of WOR monitoring,
had WBCQ on 9429.93 instead of correct 9329.93. I didn`t notice it until the
NASWA Flashsheet pulled it out to head a by-frequency log.
Correct:

9955, good, no jamming. Also confirmed Wed March 8 at 2200 on WBCQ webcast of
7490 (this time in a couple seconds before 2200 there were a few bars of
extraneous music, rather than words; where does this come from?). Also heard WOR
audio on 7490 itself, fair before 2229. From next week, daylight shifting moves
it a full real hour earlier into daytime absorption to start at 2100. Also
confirmed UT Thu March 10 after 0030 on WBCQ 9330.29-CUSB.

** U S A.
5129.735-AM, March 9 at 0225 during `Amateur Radio Roundtable` from W5KUB.com,
WBCQ is S9+10-20. Seems this new frequency varies over a range of about 1 kHz
spanning both sides of 5130; apparently crystal-controlled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9395, March 8 at 2108, SonPower Radio via
WRMI is back on; had been unusually missing 7 hours earlier. March 9 at 1423
check, on, but very undermodulated talk about nuclear war (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9275, Tue March 8 at 2107 check, no signal
from WMLK; nor was it heard Mon March 7 but only brief chex; may have been on
sometime and off again. Re-on at 2047 Wed March 9 when EJOM is JBM (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9475-, March 9 at 0646, oh2,
WTWW-1 yet again has failed to transition to night frequency 5830, instead still
on day frequency here achieving S9+10 but fading, PPPP and rumbling modulation.
By next check 1350, has managed to switch to 5830 but only 10 minutes left for
that, during `Rawhide` tune with replaced gospel-huxtering lyrix; sung by cowboy
PPPP himself? Hear this frequently, maybe played every morning. Next night, UT
March 10 at 0618, WTWW-1 has failed to stay on 9475, instead on 5830, but only
fair non-solid signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A.
690, March 9 at 0712 UT, big open carrier looping E/W, obviously KGGF
Coffeyville KS an hour+ after normal local midnite ``sign-off``. Often left on,
but not always; depends on humidity?
BTW, 10/5 kW U4 KGGF is being
bought by the cross-border Bartlesville OK station group including little
KWON-1400 and KPGM-1500, so look for possible format change on KGGF; also
getting three FM stations in the deal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. 1480, March 10 at 1335-1355+ UT, KBXD Dallas still
nothing but classic country song segués, deep fades now after sunrise, and SAH
of 2.3 Hz against KQAM Wichita which will eventually overcome
it.
Strangely enough, searching radioinsight.com on KBXD, there is
nothing found since last April when it was purchased out of bankruptcy along
with other stations. Someone now at radiodiscussions.com refers to this format
as ``placeholder`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED.
11425-USB, March 9 at 1402, at least two QSO pirates overlapping, Indonesians?
11455-USB is again occupied by the very hypo soft-spoken one standing out from
the crowd (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
