** CUBA. 6230, June 12 at 0608, JBA carrier detectable from the RHC leapfrog mixing product of 6100 over 6165 another 65 kHz beyond. Both just barely modulated, but enough signal for leaping, S9+20 and S9+10 respectively. Meanwhile, the other scheduled English frequencies, 6060 and 6000 are both OFF. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 15230, June 12 at 1409, this RHC sounds dead air, but by straining, JBM; while // 15140 is OK. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KUWAIT. 17550, June 12 at 2058, R. Kuwait, music, best heard yet achieving S5, fading to S2. We should log this every day while we can at midsummer, since the other 10-11 months will be totally inaudible, hi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** MALI. 5995, June 12 at 0610, S9 of hilife music, as R. Mali is sufficiently modulated and no RHC aside 6000 to bother it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NIGERIA. 7255-, June 12 at 0606, VON is on at S9+10/20 but undermodulated; BTW, 24 hours earlier June 11, when I found it to be off, Ivo Ivanov had it instead on 9689.9 where I did not check, but has happened before. Also at this same time June 12, he reports the DRM transmitter was also active with Hausa on 15119.9. Alan Roe suggests it was for a special occasion, National Democracy Day (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 15730, June 13 at 1302-1304*, S9+10 open carrier, typical Greenville-B morning day shift transmitter test on a frequency scheduled much later (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENIING DIGEST)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1985 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday June 12 at 2100 on WRMI 9955, S8-S3, not cutting on late. Simulcast on WBCQ 7490+ is JBA such that I can`t calculate how many seconds apart the playbax may be.
Also confirmed UT Thursday June 13 after 0100 on WRMI 7780, fair.
Also confirmed UT Thursday June 13 from 0205 on WBCQ Superstation test on 9330.00, very good. Surprise airing thanks to Larry Will.

** U S A. 9329.999, June 12 at 2334, WBCQ superstation test is on-frequency, maybe really 9330.000 within my margin of error, and very strong S9+20/30 with rock music. Tnx to tip from Ethan Best who first reported it to the WOR iog at 2225. Then it`s heard all over North America with VG signals. Likewise at 0045 June 13 on our BST-1 caradio. Programming from Area 51 was being used for the test, so Larry Will included WORLD OF RADIO 1985 at 0205, thanks! This continued into the night with no loss of signal; 0511 check S9+20/30 with anti-fag comments, maybe a parody; 0614 an Allan Weiner Worldwide playback. AW said power was 150 kW on antenna beam like the other WBCQs, 250 degrees WSW toward TX and Mexico. The test was a surprise, as on the latest AWWW he had foreseen testing not until last week of June. And now planned to run it again the next day.
9330, however off the air when checked June 13 at 1255, and 2205, but by 2240, 9330+ old transmitter on with Brother Scare. Sometime before 0100 switched TOMBS onto the big`un, as now it`s the VG on-frequency signal continuing with Brother Scare past 0136 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 1986, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 4840, June 14 at 0556, WWCR with S9+20/30 of dead air; 3215 with Brother Scare, and 5890 is off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. Re last report, this of course was about WEWN: 15610, June 11 at 2026 is S9-S7 in English, definitely on as usual, tho Ivo said June 10 that it`s ``very rarely on the air``, scheduled at 19-24 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
