** AUSTRALIA [and non]. Re my not finding the Unique Radio website, which is about to carry WOR via WINB on Saturdays at 1230 on 9265V, Tim Gaynor explains: ``My site is http://www.uniqueradio.podomatic.com or go to google and search uniqueradio + podomatic``. Thence you can play 2-hour podcasts of the latest and previous broadcasts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** BRAZIL. 11856.9, Aug 26 at 0102, weak music vs stray pulse jamming, but tnx to OG&E AC power outage, blanking all household and area sources, noise level is low enough to make out some Brazuguese intonation, so presumed R. Aparecida now varied up to here on sporadic schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, PL-880 and interior reelout, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** COLOMBIA. 5910+ & 6010v, Aug 25 at 0351, not even JBA carriers from the HJDH stations. Alcaraván Radio circa 5910.3 was better heard when sometimes on, early or late evening here. Last report of 5910.23 was July 23 from Bob Wilkner, FL as in DXLD 18-31.
Another check, Aug 26 at 0040, no carrier around 5910, but a JBA carrier circa 6010. That could be Brasil, which has been reported active. No other broadcasters scheduled now, despite Aoki/NDXC still including long-defunct XEOI México!
Just in time, as at 0042 neighborhood AC power failed; I immediately summoned OG&E and it was back on at 0155, so the full moon was nice but not required (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA [and non]. 11860, Aug 25 at 2156, wall-of-noise jamming atop somestation with fair carrier but undermodulated, Spanish, or? Of course, it`s Cuban jamming Cuban, since R. Martí is not on today Saturday, as confirmed after 1400 when it appears on weekdays. And the broadcast signal soon cuts off about 2157, as RHC would do but not RM. Yet EiBi says RHC 11860 is supposed to stay in Spanish from 2100 to 2300. Something`s always wrong at RHC and the DentroCuban Jamming Command.
11840, Aug 25 at 2157, RHC Spanish is equally undermodulated here, along with plus/minus 10 much weaker parasites. Something`s always wrong at RHC. But see below
11880, Aug 25 at 2158, RHC Spanish instead of English they sometimes utter before 2200 here when into scheduled French. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
11930, Aug 25 at 2159, meanwhile, R. Martí is really here and way atop the JBA jamming level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGST)
** CUBA. 11830 & 11850, Aug 26 at 0104, parasitic spurs out of RHC 11840 transmitter are each 100% readable during AC power outage, on PL-880 and interior reelout. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 13645-13650-13655, Aug 25 at 1714, DRM at S3 but shortly after I tune in, vanishes. R. Kuwait in Arabic supposedly from 1700 to 2000 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NETHERLANDS [non]. 9925, UT Sunday August 26 at 0020, The Mighty KBC via Nauen, GERMANY, is missing! Oh, now I hear a JBA carrier, from that, or what? Might be propped out, except other Europeans are sufficient: 9420 Greece S5-S7; 9570 Albania S6-S8! Another check at 0136 during power outage, on DX-398 and internal reel-out: still JBA carrier.
It`s almost time for KBC`s traditional QSY to lower band in September; HFCC has alternates reserved: 5960, 6040, 6145; which will it be? Have heard nothing about this year`s plans. Or had they already moved this week? I did not check these (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6959.94, Aug 26 at 0022, JBA carrier here is only trace of a possible pirate this Saturday evening, nothing else 6770-7000. Many 6960 logs here, one on 6959.95, say it`s Radio Illuminati between 2358 and 0051*:

6935-USB, Aug 26 at 0107, soul music, pause and 0108 ``Wolverine Radio`` ID.. Finally some pirate axion! During AC power outage, on PL-880 and interior reelout (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SAUDI ARABIA. 15435, Aug 25 at 1710, BSKSA, S9 to S9+5 VG in Arabic talk; and 15205 Qur`an program at S7-S9; along with 15140 RHC extension they are the SSOB; quite a pipeline from SA. Also at 1714 on 13710 > // 15205 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1944 monitoring: confirmed UT Sunday August 26 at 0327 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, but too much storm noise to calculate presumed start time; also seems somewhat undermodulated. Next:

Sun 2130 WRMI 7780 to NE [NEWish]
Sun 2330 WBCQ 9330v to WSW [maybe]

** U S A. 9395, Saturday August 25 at 2200, WRMI opening VORW and // much weaker 7780, in this (still secret?) repeat (and 11580 remains off). Previously circa 2144, 9395 played Oldies, and 7780 VP sounded like Biermann with His Weekend Show; another gospel huxter on 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15809.9, 12105, 9930, 9475, 5830, 5085, Aug 25 at 1706, all possible WTWW frequencies are off. (This will be a problem for Mark Taylor, NASWA Flashsheet editor, who, when I start a report with a frequency missing, for that entry pulls out another frequency from inside the report which is not missing, hi). Thus I am reporting *nothing*, but that`s the point: it`s totally off the air now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 5085, Aug 25 at 2358, WTWW-2 as Bob Heil is wrapping up `Theater Organ in the Ozarx` really running at its new time I have almost forgotten again this week to check, 2330 Saturday. I wonder if he is keeping it to less than 30 minutes now? This early, strong signal is not enough to overcome storm noise from TX panhandle, NM, KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 12050, Aug 25 at 1717, WEWN Spanish coverage of some live event with crowd applause, music in background, rather Irish --- of course, it`s the popal about-to visit, live coverage from the Croke stadium in Dublin. The anchors are pushing for listener e-mail response, plugging EWTN and Radio Católica Mundial. Furthermore, WEWN is splattering roughly 12040-12080! Later I watch EWTN cable TV for a bit to see that a bro in a monk`s habit and a normally dressed gal are co-hosting, with Catholic reverence. Set aside that many millions are being spent on this PR event to celebrate the corrupt, disgraced RC church, rather than compensate its victims.

** U S A. 5044/5056, UT Sunday Aug 26 at 0035, WWRB 5050 is putting noiseblob spurs peaking about plus/minus 6 from 5050 during anti-UN ranters (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4810, Aug 26 at 0039, still getting a JBA carrier vs the huge utehash from the plus side. So is it Radio Logos, Perú? Please check in South America (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
