Glenn Hauser logs February 24-25-26, 2018

** ANGUILLA. 6090, Feb 26 at 0407, DGS in on again, blotting Ethiopia. 11775, Feb 26 at 1458, Pastor Melissa Scott is on again. BTW, if you search on ``Barbie Bridges``, you may find some images of the alleged same person from her previous career, as well as a lot of discussion about her identity, such as this current top hit:

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 15332, 15263, Feb 26 at 1422, approx., extra weak spurblobs in between the main ones from RHC 15370-AM, approx. 15092, 15162, 15228, 15298, 15440, 15510, 15580, 15650, 15720, 15790, 15860, progressively weaker to JBA at the top end. Some of the closer ones intermittently resolve into readable modulation in FM mode. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MADAGASCAR. 17570, Feb 25 at 2029, organ music until 2030*; was the OSOB except for MWV 17640, the other Madagascan. This is AWR at 2000-2030, 250 kW, 290 degrees from Talata per HFCC in Mos language, which means what? That`s one abbr. not on EiBi`s readme in any form, except as part of Moskva. EiBi frequency list has this as MOO for Burkina Faso, which in turn means Moore, spoken by three sesquimegapersons in BF, part of CIRAF 46. Unfortunately, EiBi has removed all the [xxx] equivalent language abbrs which we find in HFCC, making it harder to cross-reference; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9980, Feb 26 at 1501-1503, WWCR is off the air instead of BS, audiblizing without ACI the Pacificans on 9975, 9985, i.e. Palau and Saipan. 9980 is back on with The Overcomer by rapid check 1702 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** TURKEY. 6125.056, Feb 26 at 0406, VOT English to North America, characteristically off-frequency-plus (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** UGANDA [non]. 15239.93, Sunday February 25, R. Munansi via WWRB, first heard at 1520 on signature off-frequency --- I keep checking every hour, mostly as JBA carrier and am still getting it at 1929, 2026, 2100, but not at 2205, so may last all the way to 2200. However, HFCC shows 15240 registered 1500-2100 only, 100 kW at 45 degrees to CIRAF 4 and 9 which means Canada east of 90-west, rather far from Uganda, which would be 48-SW on a more easterly beam. Last year`s usage did not consume the entire span and it`s really Saturday and Sunday only (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1918 monitoring: Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, reports: ``GERMANY Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 9485 CUSB, Feb 25:
http://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.bg/2018/02/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_25.html
1131-1200 9485 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg to CeEu English Sat, fair signal``

Manuel Méndez, Lugo Spain, also reports: ``9485, Hamburger Lokalradio, Goeren, 1100-1200, 25-02, English, ID "Hamburger Lokalradio``, at 1130 Glenn Hauser's program "World of Radio". 25332.``

I confirmed UT Monday February 26 at 0030 on WBCQ, 9330.24v-CUSB, poor. Also confirmed UT Mon Feb 26 from 0401:15 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5129.84v, S9 but poor. Also barely confirmed UT Mon Feb 26 at 0430 on WRMI 9455 JBA, presumably // the JBA carrier on 9955. By 0442, 9455 has improved to S4-S7. Next:

Tue 0030   WBCQ 9330v-CUSB to WSW
Tue 0030   WRMI 7730 to WNW
Tue 2030   WRMI 7780 to NE, 9455 to WNW [or #1919?]
Tue 2130   WRMI 9455 to WNW [or #1919?]

** U S A. 7490, Sat Feb 24 at 2158, WBCQ is not signing on for another `Radio New Music` show as heard last week at 2200, so it`s not a weekly, or not yet: the website has been amended to say:  

``Inaugural Broadcast - Sat Feb 17, 2018
Weekly Broadcasts Begin - Sat Mar 3, 2018
5-6:00 PM Eastern US Time
2200-2300 GMT / UTC
WBCQ 50,000 Watts 7490 KHz Shortwave``

Alan Roe, Teddington, UK, also noted: ``Hi Glenn, I checked the WBCQ webstream at 2200 on Sat 24 Feb to listen to the new Radio New Music program, but heard only back to back music fill. I guess RNM is not weekly, or is maybe still settling in to a regular schedule`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7490.05v, UT Mon Feb 26 at 0357, WBCQ The Planet IS & ID, i.e. prior to sign-on, at unusual time, but it`s because `Herald of Truth` is now isolated, with nothing on schedule between 01 & 04 after `Le Show`. HoT has been on WBCQ since 2004y, from the racist Kingdom Identity Ministries of Arkansas, not Alaska (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9455, Feb 26 at 1459, WRMI starts another week still replaying the same `Viva Miami` episode from Selangor after HFCC, as concluding it, Jeff is Spanishly anticipating his flight back via Osaka to spend three noches in Hawaii (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) 

** U S A [and non?]. 9396.5, Feb 26 at 1455, hi-speed RTTY on hi side QRMing 9395 WRMI Oldies, and vice versa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Feb 26 at 0443-0448: 531, 549, 558, 585, 603, 621, 666, 693*, 711, 738, 747(2), 774, 792 vs WBBM IBOC, 873(2), 882, 909, 936, 999, 1026, 1044, 1053, 1089, 1116, 1125-, 1215*, 1512. *stronger ones. What`s the point? Just quickly discovering what signals are really there, even with far too much domestic QRM to audiblize programming (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6054 approx., Feb 26 at 0406, terribly distorted spurblob around here with talk modulation, believed to be The Voice of Thy Conscience, Colombia, out of whack from 6010 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
