** AUSTRALIA. 4910, Nov 22 at 0822, Oz talk vs CODAR. It`s VL8T, Tennant Creek
NT, just before the 0830 QSY to 2485. Unfortunately I am awake at this hour for
a frequency I don`t hear elsewhen. Weaker than VL8A 4835 Alice, which stays
there 24 hours and is easy around sunrise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** CHINA [and non]. 9280, Nov 23 at 0019, big S9+25 signal in
Chinese as I am tuning between 9330 and 9265. It`s a CNR1 jammer, but nothing
else heard; represented by the asterisk in this Aoki entry:
``9280*SOH Xi
Wang Zhi Sheng 2212-1711 1234567 Chinese 0.1 ND ? TWN 2610N 11955E SOH
b16``
Then I put 9280 on the PL-880 as I continue to bandscan on the
NRD-545 to find how many more CNR1s are incoming in the next few minutes:
0026, 9670, an echo apart plus CCI
0026, 9675, synchronized
0028,
9845, very poor with echo
0028, 9880, with CCI, not synch
0033, 11530,
echo and CCI from WRMI
0035, 11750, echo
0037, 11945, echo and
CCI
0037, 11960, echo
0041, 7580
Recheck at 0103, 9280 is off (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CHINA. 9750, Nov 23 at 0027 soft
song, fair signal with flutter. Aoki shows the only thing is PBS Nei Menggu, 50
kW, 36 degrees from Hohhot (favorable for us far beyond). Could well be,
considering how many CNR1s I am getting on 31m (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING

** CUBA. Terry L Krueger replies to my log of ``RR`` Reloj
sounder on 1020: ``I hear 1020 Reloj regularly overnight. Believe I've heard
Artemisa here overnight as well so inconclusive as to source. Daytime -- such as
right now at 1530 GMT -- Artemisa strong on 1020, parallel 770. Never a Reloj
daytime here but if it's a dedicated Reloj on the eastern half of the island,
I'd not hear it from this location. Had the Artemisa overnight Reloj relay
around 0840 GMT today on 770. Artemisa at 1126 GMT recheck`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** CUBA [and non]. 9490, Nov 23 at 0024, lite pulse
jamming and no Radio República yet, so despite registry starting at 0000 via
FRANCE, evidently not currently starting until 0100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 1190, Nov 23 at 0112, Spanish M&W
Catholic talk dominant from N/S, not // WEWN 5810, about trip to Ciudad de
México, 0117 pause for corte comercial, Mexican promos, on ``Contacto 11-90 de
AM``, i.e. XECT, 10000/100 watts, Monterrey NL, way after sundown (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** PALAU. 9930, Tue Nov 22 at 0801, news about
new Fukushima quake from USA network, right into men`s incontinence commercial
with 800 number --- Does T8WH really know its audience beyond the 318 degree
beam in Asia? HFCC has HBN registered for 24 hours on 9930, but Aoki shows it
not starting until 0800 M-F with a semihour of news and music (really from South
Bend, no doubt). Aoki includes individual program info for WHR frequencies, and
some other stations. Fair S9 to S6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** PERU [and non]. 5980, Nov 23 at 0100, Cuba`s pointless pulse
jamming does not totally block a carrier from R. Chaski, until autocutoff at
0104:48* which is 26.5 seconds later than last timing four nights ago, November
19 until 0104:21.5*, or averaging 6.6 seconds later per (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [non]. 15580, Nov 22 at 1958, VOA talking
about opioid poisoning; probably a USG editorial to conclude the hour, but she`s
cut off incomplete at 1959*. At 2000, Vatican is supposed to take over from
BOTSWANA, but if so, not enough to break thru the squelch on the BST-1 caradio
which had no trouble stopping on Botswana (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1852 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
November 22 at 2130 on WRMI 15770, fair. Also confirmed UT Wed Nov 23 at 0030 on
WBCQ, 9329.93v-CUSB, good S9. (Before WBCQ came on, at 0019 I noticed some very
poor 2-way on about 9330.9-USB).
Next: Dave Kenny reports that as of Nov
22, WRMI resumed non-BS programming during the 14-15 UT hour on 9955, so maybe
that had been a mistake, and WOR will be back Wed at 1415.5. Also:
Wed 2200
WBCQ 7490v to WSW
Thu 0030 WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW

** U S A. 5850, Nov 22 at 0819, WRMI with another
unexpected World Music hour, song in French; 0827 African mbira music. While
5950 is running Brother Scare.
11580, Tue Nov 22 at 2030, WRMI still with
World Music, starting the Council of Europe Ode to Joy rap song, and more old
favorites until 2100 switch to Brother Scare.
9955, Tue Nov 22 at 2100
check, this WRMI is in World Music, Andean quena tune, instead of Brother Scare
who probably lasted until 2100. (2200-2300 would be the Radio Libertad jammed
prepeat, but not checked today.) After 2300, sounds like Hobart Radio
International? He`s scheduled for 2330, while Tue at 2300 is Radio Northern
Ireland. Some jamming continues, but intensifies after 2400 against Radio
Libertad.
7780 & 7730, Nov 23 at 0040, both these WRMIs are still
off.
5950, UT Wed Nov 23 at 0052, WRMI with Adrian Sainsbury talking
about RNZI, presumably during a Wavescan, while 5850 is Slovakia in English
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, Nov 22 at 0820,
WTWW-2 is on with music as Ted says it`s an ``ungodly hour``, disrespectfully
keeps talking over a Diana Ross song: it`s all about the DJ, not the music
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5890, UT Wed Nov 23 at
0054, WWCR with hateful anti-Semitic talk, e.g. referring to ``rat-faced Jew-boy
Chuck Schumer``, ``Jewish mafia``. Guy on phone with epithets for many
politicians based on their Jewish ethnicity. Sounds like same troll I heard the
other night on WWRB. Indeed, WWCR sked for WWCR-2 admits at 6-7 pm CST Tue it`s:
``Patriots Unite Now --- Ken from the Bronx``. Later with Brother Scare on
5890 it`s a different WWCR-4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U
S A. Re ``870 UNID -- 10/30 1850 [EDT] – Country gospel music, ID as "Top Ten
Radio" (I think), with WWL nulled, but losing out to it by 1852. Prime suspect
looks like KPRM-MN, or maybe KAAN-MO? (GH-OK)``
In NRC DX News, David
Yocis says: ``WPWT-TN, "Top Gun Radio," a sunset regular here``. That`s a 10 kW
daytimer in Colonial Heights, near its address in Bristol, a long way from here

UNIDENTIFIED. 7480, Nov 23 at
0041, the humroar is back here, no carrier amid detectable. 0030-0100 is the
break between scheduled VOA Burmese via Sri Lanka, and RFA Uighur via
Tajikistan. Wolfgang Büschel replied to my previous report:
