** CUBA [and non]. Correxion to this report: frequency logged was 7365, as
implied in the body, not typo 7465; fixed:
7365, March 29 at 0546, R.
Martí is loud & clear, no jamming, while 7435 is jammed against nothing. The
DentroCuban Jamming Command still hasn`t figured out the new RM schedule, which
is in HFCC for all to see, i.e. 7435 only at 03-05, preceded and succeeded by
7365 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7254.924, April
5 at 0547, VON is already on with pop music prélude, about 10 minutes before it
will start its percussive identification signal prior to Hausa hour. Usual very
good level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SOUTH CAROLINA
[non]. 11590, April 5 at 1946, Overcomer Ministry on new frequency, but not
Brother HyStairical himself at the moment, S4 but good modulation, and seems //
but not synchro with 11580 WRMI next door and its // 11825, which are both much
weaker! Ivo Ivanov says this moved off 11600 via BULGARIA due to a conflict with
Denge Kurdistane which is only on 11600 now. The BS time started March 30 as
1600-2000, changed April 4 to 1800-2030 due to another conflict on 11590 with
Radio Ashna via Thailand at 1600-1730! Not the first time there has been a
pileup on 11600 involving ``Secretbrod``. 11590 is reported as 50 kW at 126
degrees, but sounds like it could be aimed reversely toward North America, as
has been scheduled elsewhen from Bulgaria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO
1872, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TURKEY. 9830, April 4 at *2158, VOT on with
IS prior to 2200 English to NAm, vs RTTY, which seems to stop at 2200, but not
sure if in deference. VOT starts with a timesignal, but s/on announcement with
frequency unreadable. Yesterday this transmission was on 9735, as Sheryl
Paskiewicz, WI reported, but I suspected it was a mistake. She was also
monitoring at the same time today and agrees I was right, it`s back on 9830. Too
bad, as 9735 appears to be QRM-free (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1872, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1871 monitoring:
confirmed Tuesday April 4 at 2130 on WRMI 15770, good with nearby storm noise.
Missed checking April 4 at 2330 on WBCQ 9329v. Also confirmed Wednesday April 5
at 1340, the 1315.5 airing on WRMI 9955, good but occasional noise bursts which
could be QRM (not jamming), or out of own transmitter? Also confirmed Wed April
5 at 2100 on WBCQ, 7490, poor; also confirmed Wed April 5 at 2330 on WBCQ,
9329.95v-CUSB, fair.
The WRMI schedule grid updated April 4 now shows
6855 at 11-13 UT is on System C = // 9955 again including WOR and other DX
programs, rather than // System H Oldies on 9395. Assuming that is
correct,

** U S A. Correxion to this report: 9328.934V-CUSB, not
9338.934v-CUSB; I am making too many mistaxe! But I must fix them
ASAP:
9328.934V-CUSB, March 30 at 1420, Brother Scare via WBCQ is more
than 1 kHz low now, and audibly varying as I try to measure it (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9955, April 4 at before and after 1959
BZ ID, WRMI has been playing World Music instead of TOM as scheduled. Segments
of WM have appeared unexpectedly before. However next day, April 5 at 2030
check, 9955 is back to TOM // 11825, but not BS himself at the moment, and with
some pulse jamming. See also SOUTH CAROLINA [non]
11580, April 4 at 2000,
WRMI is VP with jazz, i.e. `Jazz from the Left` as scheduled this hour on
Tuesdays; and should also be on // 6855, too weak here to tell (Glenn Hauser,
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 9930, Tuesday April 4 at 1952, WTWW-2
with distorted country music. What`s become of Dave Ramsey, gone
again?
9475, April 4 at 1953, then I check WTWW-1 and find SFAW with
modulation and carrier breaking up (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** VATICAN [non]. 9610, April 5 at 1156, Vatican Radio closing
Spanish via Greenville USA, violating Separation of Church and State, 1158
playing IS as customary at the end of transmissions. Checking this because Mark
Coady, Ontario had reported hearing RHC on 9610 // other RHC frequencies, April
3 at 1140. Maybe then, but if so, would be in a big collision. I do hear RHC on
9640 as usual (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** ZANZIBAR. 11735,
April 4 at 2052, ZBC is VP, but with BFO I hear two carriers slightly apart
beating against each other. This correlates with Wolfgang Büschel`s observation
on March 23: ``Two program strings on TZA even 11735.0 kHz, and another string
visible nearby on 11734.966 kHz. Heard a male announcer, but also a steady music
played`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
