** ETHIOPIA [and non]. 7170-7175-7180, Oct 3 at 0348, DRM jamming, but cannot
detect any Eritrean carrier on 7175 amid it.
BTW, the second Eritrean
transmitter of Program I is now reported on 7146.555 by Wolfgang Büschel at
0510, but nothing when I listen earlier. That was first heard at 1645 Sept 29 by
Thorsten Hallmann; no jamming against it yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** MEXICO. 650, UT Mon Oct 3 at 0336, `La Hora Nacional` talking
about Facebook; audible with WSM nulled, and peaks from SW, so very likely
XETNT, Los Mochis, Sinaloa, with that state`s addendum to the national LHN.
There are nine other XEs on 650, but it seems XETNT is the only one I ever hear.
There is a beep as transition every minute or so, outro segment as having come
from La Suprema Corte de la Nación, why? 0338 into song, and now I am hearing
the same music under KCSP on 610, i.e. sibling station in Guasave, Sinaloa, XEGS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO [and non]. 740, UT Mon
Oct 3 at 0350, same cantante segment as just heard on 780 from `Coahuila en la
Hora Nacional`, so this is XEQN Torreón, 10/1 kW --- and the one making that
horrible low audible heterodyne against KRMG Tulsa, which is overridden when
nulled as much as possible. Take that, Rush repeat! They can`t get enough of
that SOB at KRMG (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 780,
UT Mon Oct 3 at 0341, with WBBM nulled, discussion of Lucha Libre [fake
wrestling], masks, etc., 0346 ending this segment, 0347 ID as ``Coahuila en La
Hora Nacional``, on to a segment about a cantante, Luís somebody who is really
from Matamoros, Tamaulipas, but never mind that off-topic. The only Coahuilan on
780 is: XEWGR, Monclova, 10000/250 watts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1570, UT Mon Oct 3 at 0332, XERF with `Coahuila en la
Hora Nacional`, first topic ``inicio de rock & roll en Coahuila``. Heavy QRM
de Missouri and plenty of other US stations abolishing this as a clear channel
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1845
monitoring: confirmed UT Monday October 3 from 0301 on Area 51 webcast, and soon
on WBCQ 5129.847-AM, S9 with no swishy QRM now unlike earlier. Also confirmed UT

** U S A. 11580, Monday Oct 3 at 1314 & 1414, WRMI still with
World Music during these hours on a weekday; back to BS after 1500. Still before
and after 1700, nothing but BS also on 13695, so also on weekdays World Music is
gone from its best frequency here. Overcomer overkill is restored (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 1170, Oct 3 at 0345 UT, gospel huxter
under KFAQ Tulsa, making slow SAH with it, so WWVA Ohio is still out of whack,
deliberately? Failing to protect us from itself (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA carrier search Oct 3, not from FE
but DU:
At 1207, 702-WSW but no 774 now
At 1209, 774-WSW, 882-WSW,
891-WSW
At 1223, 738-SW, likely Tahiti. As expected, the KRMG 740 splash
isn`t quite as bad now on October night pattern until 1230 UT/
I continue
to detect these on the DX-398 with internal ferrite only. A complete x9-kHz
bandscan (1 kHz offset with BFO) on the R75 with 100+ foot E-W longwire could
not hear any of them (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1330+ and 1350-, Oct 3 at 0353 UT, the rapid
clicking noises I reported before on the NRD-545 with stationary antenna, I now
also hear on the DX-398 so can get a bearing on them: east/west on both,
presumably from some out-of-whack 1340 station. Closest along that axis is KJMU
Sand Springs OK, if active, but never notice the spurs in daytime. Beyond that,
a couple in northern AR, a couple more in southern MO, many further east; two in
northern NM, one in northern AZ, etc., etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
