Glenn Hauser logs July 21-22, 2016


** ALBANIA. 9855, July 22 at 0130, R. Tirana is OFF tonight. I will not speculate further on whether it`s permanent or whether this imply any repairs are being undertaken (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ARMENIA. 11850, July 21 at 1914, I check for the Radio Mi Amigo special barbecue and broadcast live from Kall-Krekel, Germany, as widely publicized to be relayed to ``the world`` via Gavar at 17-20 UT today --- as expected, way over here in deep North America, nothing but a JJBA carrier, but that`s something. At 1947 I`ve switched from the R75 to the NRD545, and now detect some talk at S 0 to S 0.5 vs noise level of a hefty S1 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9325-9335, July 22 at 0106, S8 humbuzz with variations indicating attempt at talk modulation, i.e. a parasitic spur out of the real R. Cairo frequency, 9315.0, making the same awful sound at S9 but no talky. Centering at 9330 puts this much higher than the usual spurspot landing around 9322, and would have blasted Blalock on WBCQ before its sign-off circa 0100. Cairo 9315 span is 0045-0330 including ``English`` after 0200, so no danger to WORLD OF RADIO at 2330-2400, and anyway, who knows where the spur will land next? Sometimes there is none either (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, July 22 at 0101, JBA carrier from R. Chaski, until cutoff at 0101:33.5*, about when expected, compared to three nights ago at 0101:13.5*, or 6.6666+ seconds later per night on average (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SRI LANKA. 11905, July 22 at 0114:47.5, SLBC music prélude starts on S1 signal, 2 pips of mis-timesignal ending at 0115:17.5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9770, July 22 at 0111, Voz de Turquía Spanish frequency is S7 and just barely modulated; while // 9870 is weaker at S5-S6 but sufficiently modulated (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490, July 21 at 2340, WBCQ is on this Thursday, S7-S9 vs considerable noise level; can make out some singing, and then echoey talk; presumed a segment of Broad Spectrum Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9930, July 21 at 1950 check, WTWW-2 is still OFF; 12105, WTWW-3 is on in English telling us that it`s Bibling Worldwide in French; 9475, WTWW-1 is on, having failed to run 5830 this daytime, with usual white-identity crap (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7505vv, July 22 at 0115 and 0123 chex, WRNO is OFF again (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1330.6 & 1349.4 approx., July 22 at 0129 UT, matching mushy spurblobs making hets against 1330 and 1350 stations, implying they spew out of one of hundreds of 1340 stations, impossible to make any match, and I`m not on a loopable antenna. (Not to be confused with the local spurs circa 1360 and 1420 which still attach to 1390 KCRC) (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
