** CUBA. 13740, May 14 at 0328, R. Rebelde music // 5025 instead of RHC
programming, tnx to a tip from Richard Langley in Hawaii who was hearing 13740
only before 0300. I checked other RHC Spanish frequencies, 5040, 6060, 7340,
11670, 11840 and with different music they were // each other, but not 13740.
5025 itself is often absent in the evenings, but on tonight. Suspect 13740 just
another SNAFU in feed routings, but we shall see if it happen again (Glenn

** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sunday
May 14, The Mighty KBC via GERMANY is doing much better on its second week back
on 31m, VG S9+20/10, Uncle Eric introducing Kraig Krist at 0140, about 10
minutes earlier than usual. Forgotten Song is #28 from April 1977, the Jacksons`

**
NORTH AMERICA. 6880.0-AM, May 13 at 2340, pirate music at S8-S6, no doubt
Unknown Name Radio Network on its favorite but not only frequency. Yes, per this
thread at this hour, starting as early as 2116, including some log from
overseas:

** U S A. Armed Forces Day
monitoring, May 13 at 2310-2333, quickly checking all the frequencies in this
schedule:
altho
it`s soon obvious nothing is propagating above 15 MHz or below 6 MHz,
results:
7360-USB, May 13 at 2310, CQ Armed Forces Day Crossband, from
NWKJ [all calls given fonetikaly], then contact with an N9? Very poor. NWKJ is
USS Yorktown, CV-10, Charleston SC.
13963.5-USB, May 13 at 2312, CQ AFD
from AAC in Lexington KY, QSX 14240 [nobody really says QSX, but I do]. AAC is
at Barrow Army Reserve Center. Some frequencies have more than one station
listed, so I hit 13963.5-USB again a few minutes later in search of WAR at The
Pentagon, but I never hear it on this or any frequency, instead AAC again at
2317 with WH7W in Hawaii. Says 6-8 weeks for QSL reply. At 2333, AAC op gives
name as Harv, good signal.
14438.5-USB, May 13 at 2313, YL says ``unable
to give out callsign at this time``, but then Pat at AAZ contacts WQ5L. AAZ is
at Fort Huachuca AZ, which is handling QSLing for all the stations, but it may
take about 60 days. QSX 14340 USB, out at 2314.
6913-CW, May 13 at 2323,
strong CW signal, ``DE NWVC`` which is LST-325 in Evansville
IN.
7535.0-LSB, May 13 at 2325, NSS Annapolis MD special reactivation
with W8VVE, then KF8IY, Bob in OH; QRZ on 7255. This is listed at 7533.5-USB!
Apparently a bit of confusion with 1.5 kHz offset reference frequency and which
SB, run by hams used to LSB on 7 MHz. The original NSS at the US Naval Academy
had been off the air for about 40 years. See stories in DXLD 17-18 and
17-19.
14487-USB, May 13 at 2327, trace of something, looking for ADB at
Camp Foster, Okinawa, but also listed for NSS.
6903.5-USB, May 13 at
2329, poor signal but ID as NEPM, Matt with almost unreadable contact, then
KF7OQY? NEPM is USS Iowa BB 61 in Los Angeles CA.
After lawnmowing and a
recovery period, another session in case anything else can be heard after 0143
UT, altho many of the stations have officially closed earlier:
5357, May
14 at 0143, digital tones. Two stations listed here for USB, ABH in Schofield
Barracks, Hawaii (still too early), and ALT in nearby Camp Mabry (Austin) TX. I
don`t try to copy anything digital.
7360, May 14 at 0146 has a broadcast
station, BBC via Austria to Afghanistan, altho NIIW in San Diego is listed until
0500 (I heard it last year, like several of the above). See last year`s full
report:
6913-USB,
May 14 at 0147, NWVC with good signal; 0150 Art calling CQ from LST-325 in
Evansville IN, QSX 7212-LSB, contact K4CGA (I don`t try to hear any of the
hams); see http://LSTmemorial.org for QSL
address
4040-USB, May 14 at 0148, weak station in Spanish, surely not NSS
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1877
monitoring: confirmed Saturday May 13 at 2251 the 2230 broadcast on WBCQ
9330.10v-CUSB, good. Also confirmed the newest addition, UT Sunday May 14 at
0200 on WRMI 11580 (replacing Ukraine which had not been sending new shows on
weekends), good signal and still S9+10 at 0225 recheck when I am mentioning this
very emission. Richard Langley visiting Hawaii was also hearing it with a fair
signal on Saturday afternoon; despite allegedly aiming northeast from
Okeechobee. Also confirmed here UT Sunday May 14 at 0327 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM,

** U S A. 9330.10v-CUSB, Sat May 13 at
2308, WBCQ `Allan Weiner Worldwide` replay during Available Timeslot, as I tune
in, lamenting that someone has quit his show even after the price was halved;
who was that? Interrupted by a call from Jay Miller (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12105, May 13 at 2123, WTWW-3 is S6 of dead
air instead of bibling, but 9930, WTWW-2 is loudly musical (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9894.6, May 13 at 2121, S7 open carrier.
Suspect it`s Cairo, French scheduled on 9895 until 2115*, as the *2115v- English
scheduled on 9800 has been showing up on 9799.6 and has also been reported
coming up very late (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
