** CUBA [and non]. 15140, April 23 at 1758 on caradio, RHC is already on in tail of Spanish, tnx to sloppyraters; and with a SAH of about 2 Hz; 1800 opening RHC Arabic vs music from understation Radio Sultanate of Oman, a long-standing collision. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11985-12015 approx., horrible distorted blob of S9+20/30, and this time enough modulation to match it by AM tuning to RHC Spanish on 11840, 11760, 11860. This is not a mixing product, but an attempt to broadcast normally on scheduled 12000. The blob seems to peak about 12002, but no specific center carrier. Cf my previous unID, which was certainly this. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 410 kHz, April 23 at 0534 UT, ND beacon EGQ, which is 25 watts from Emmetsburg, Iowa (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1926 monitoring: gone again from WBCQ 9330v-CUSB, Monday April 23 at 2330, instead Brother keeps Scaring // 5130v. I suppose WOR is the last left variation from all-BS-all-the-time on 9330, since Blalock was moved to 7490; so it`s hit-and-miss, whether anyop will break away for a semihour of WOR, which did occur again 24 hours earlier. WOR confirmed UT Tuesday April 24 at 0030 on WRMI, 7730, good.
This week I plan to start WOR 1927 at its earliest possible time, unless some unforseen delay intervene:

** U S A. 7570, April 23 at 0521, WRMIBS is off this night, in keeping with scheduled closure at 0500 on new sked, despite running way past that the night before.
5985, April 23 at 0524, American English gospel huxter at S9 --- it`s WRMI, which per transmission skedgrid is airing only at 0330-0430 daily, but Mondays only like this, extended to 0600. There is no System A yellow program schedule below it to tell us who this is. HFCC as of April 11 does not account for the extension, but does show CRI in Arabic via Albania starting at 0500 daily, bit of which we can normally hear without WRMI.
9455 // 9955, Monday April 23 at 1348, WRMI in a new episode of `Viva Miami`, Jeff interviewing someone in English at a Ft Lauderdale event about the cruise industry around Japan. Jeff has quite a sideline(?) as a cruise promoter. Tuesday at this block it`s Famagusta instead.
7570 and 5950, April 24 at 0603 are both off now as scheduled (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 7505v, April 23 at 0521, WRNO is on with low modulation, altho was not on by 0100+. Must have started late (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 3215, April 23 at 0532, WWCR-1 is off, despite scheduling 0100-0900. And it`s not because of deleted BS either, variety of programming on the outdated program sked, as of March 1, still showing 6-hour difference between UT and CT. 4840 and 5935 are still on and audible despite degraded propagation. If on, 3215 should remain inbooming, best of all overnight (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 5055.978, April 24 at 1241, JBA carrier. Could 4KZ Australia be off-frequency? Nothing on 5055.0 and this trace is about what I used to hear there. Also noticed yesterday but not logged or measured. Could be local device, but not here previously (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15054.5-USB, April 24 at 1313, big racket of background engine noise, on colloquial Spanish 2-way; first words recognized, ``puta madre``, en contacto with much weaker ``Juanito, cambio``. Still something there at 1353 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
This report dispatched at 1631 UT April 24
