Glenn Hauser logs March 3-4-5, 2019

** CUBA. 12300, March 4 at 1333, RHC harmonic is S3 with same suptorted modulation as on S9+10 fundamental 6150. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALI. 5995, March 5 at 0600, no signal yet from ORTM, which was reported yesterday reactivated with modulation until 2336*. Old sked was 0555-0800 & 1800-2400, and 9635 at 0800-1800; Chinese techs have presumably been to Bamako also resuscitating the CRI relay transmitters since March 2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY [and non]. 12035.718, March 4 at 1335, VOT English is poor with lite stray pulse jamming, vs JBA carrier on 12035.0 from KSDA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U K. 15200, March 3 at 1913, Encompass (BaBcoCk) traditional music loop of guitar & violin repeating once a minute, S9-S7 past 1922. No announcements but surely another such test from Woofferton site. Not much else making it from Europe on 19m now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1971 monitoring: Ivo Ivanov: 
``GERMANY, Reception of World of Radio via HLR on 7265 CUSB, March 3
https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/03/reception-of-world-of-radio-via-hlr-on_3.html
1130-1200 7265 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg to CeEu English Sun, fair signal``

Confirmed Sunday March 3 at 2130 on WRMI 7780, fair

Confirmed UT Monday March 4 at 0230 on WRMI 5950 S9, but // 9395 is a JBA carrier, as usually the case in comparison at this hour

Confirmed UT Monday March 4 from 0359 on Area 51 webcast; while WBCQ 5129.396 is a JBA carrier at 0423 check (from next week: 0300v)

Confirmed UT Monday March 4 after 0430 on WRMI webcast, while 9955 is a JBA carrier (from next week: 0330)

Confirmed Monday March 4 at 1900 on IRRS 7290 via Romania, as monitored via UTwente; huge splash from 7295 China required narrow LSB tuning. IRRS SW ``Milan`` signed on at *1859.5, and 1900 right into WOR, no minute of news. I understand that IRRS might also run WOR during this hour on some other variable days of week. 

Not confirmed Monday March 4 at 2330 on WRMI 9955; instead check at 2347 found something else and not // any other WRMI frequency: some repetitive music loop, 2351 announcement ``thanks to the ragamuffins for all the music``, ``Kim Cordray (sp?) with teachers` corner``. This sounds vaguely familiar; was that a show on the ill-fated Global 24 experiment? And back to music. WRMI skedgrid still shows WOR.

WOR 1971 confirmed UT Tuesday March 5 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, very good

** U S A. 15770, March 3 at 1911, WRMI with S9 of dead air instead of SMTV (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9790, March 4 at 1402, S8-S3 of carrier, maybe trace of modulation, but off at 1403*. Nothing scheduled until 1400, but Saudi  Arabic is in HFCC & EiBi, not Aoki, from 1400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
