** ANGUILLA. Re my ham log missing one letter, Chuck W3ON replies: ``Glen[n], I just checked the K3LR DX cluster. The following stations are currently operating. VP2ETE VP2EIH VP2EKG``
``Anguilla Island: I took another look at the K3LR DX cluster. Most likely what you heard from Anguilla was VP2EIH. The station was spotted on the K3LR DX cluster on October 20th on 18121 kHz at 2133 UT`` (Glenn Hauser, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 2749-USB, Oct 22 at at 0623 UT, YL weather in English, gale warning mentioned repeatedly; 0625 ``This is Halifax Coast Guard Radio; out`` but immediately resumes briefly in French, back to English. S6 vs an S5 noise level. Winterish conditions are looking up. Maybe special broadcast as it`s 3:25 am in NS.
2598-USB also with a weaker YL voice at 0627, too weak. This frequency covers NL and vicinity. There are a few other 2 MHz channels listed further north and west which I have never managed to hear, if they still exist (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CANADA. 15034-USB, Oct 22 at 1354 check, Trenton Military, ditto
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 15230, Oct 22 at 1353, RHC S9+10/20 but suptorted while // 15140 is OK. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11880, Oct 22 at 1420, China Plus relay in English is S9+30 but extremely suptorted; wiggle that patchcord or render a refund to the ChiCom! Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 9620-9660, Oct 22 at 1425, the RHC 9640 transmitter is still spewing a buzzfield at least plus/minus 20 kHz, worst peaks circa 9630 & 9650. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** CUBA. 11760, Oct 22 at 2146, RHC S7-S9 but only a trace of modulation, unlike sufficient 11850. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** INDIA. 11561, Oct 22 at 1418, AIR 11560 with a song has a 1 kHz het/carrier on the hi side; whence? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA SOUTH. 9095, Oct 22 at 1346, algo JBA, no doubt Echo of Hope, clandestine on its latest shift as also heard yesterday, and nothing on original 9100 nor interim 9105. The Oct 21 edition of Aoki has it only on 9095, but what about tomorrow (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11520, Oct 22 at 1417, something new here, talk in unID language, S4-S7, unused frequency per Aoki. Nothing now on 11530 and maybe some noise on 11540, so suspect another shift by Dengê Welat. Or is it Turkey jamming? The situation could change from day to day or even hour to hour. Ivo Ivanov indicates when I heard it, both were on 11520:
Pro Erdogan Radio Recep & Denge Welat in 25mb, October 21:

I assume ``Radio Recep`` is Ivo`s nickname for it, not a real ID
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6907-USB, Oct 22 at 2345, S9 pirate music, with abrupt breaks in modulation = transmission, but YL ``CNR`` IDs at 2345, 2353, apparently stays off from 2357*. Many earlier logs here: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,59435.0.html
It`s not so Clever when Clever Name Radio be initialized (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 341 kHz, Oct 22 at 2153 UT, EI is back! EnId`s 25-watt MCW ND beacon at Woodring airport. The manager and others I visited yesterday had no direct knowledge of it or its status, referring me to FAA; but maybe my inquiry led her to look into turning it back on? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 1580, Oct 22 at 1930 UT, KOKB Blackwell is cutting off and on the air, and when on is weaker than normal, compared to other stations and the noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, Oct 22 circa 2115 UT in a pledge break, KUCO says it will be moving to ``beautiful new studios in downtown OKC`` --- thus following in the footsteps of KOSU which could not resist the allure of the Big City, both forsaking their original campi in Edmond and Stillwater. At least KGOU remains at OU in Norman. If only KUCO would spend some of that expense to attain a local-quality translator signal into Enid. At least we may hope its recently refurbished transmitter/site will remain on the north side (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2004 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday October

** U S A. 9330, Oct 22 at 2132, WBCQ-6 is off today; why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) see UNID 12120.4
** U S A. 17850, Oct 22 at 2138, JBA carrier, presumed WRMI 5950 X 3, but still too weak to audiblize a match of BS; would be OSOB & SSOB if 17775 KVOH were not running late. I always check too for any trace of Kuwait to us on 17550 which propagates only at midsummer, but zilch (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 17774.99 approx., Oct 22 at 2135, praise music in Spanish registering only S1, as KVOH is still on past nominal 2100* on Tue & Thu; remains slightly off-frequency and have never answered my query whether this be the old or ``new`` transmitter. It`s the SSOB but not the OSOB tnx to WRMI? on 17850, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** UZBEKISTAN. 12160, Oct 22 at 1415, S Asian language talk vs CODAR, S9-S7. Amid the TWR India 1345-1545 broadcast via Tashkent in a complex compendium of tongues; Aoki shows M-F at 1400-1430 it`s Sin which per EiBi means Sinhalese, not Sindhi (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1690, Oct 22 at 2156 UT, heavy SAH of about 2.5 Hz, between WVON Chicago --- and?? Retén lo que Tienes, Bâton Rouge pirate? There is certainly a second station to cause the SAH. This long before sunset, possibly KDMT Arvada CO is already propagating here at the Top End; WMLB further east could be if it`s no longer silent in GA, but seldom/never heard here. I compare this SAH to another one later at 0038 Oct 23 which is more like 2.8 Hz and definitely between KDMT and WVON. MWOffsets had those 3.9 Hz apart so it`s all inconclusive (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 12120.4, Oct 22 at 2149, S4-S7 of open carrier; could it be WBCQ-6, not on 9330 now? Surely not, so off-frequency, but originally registered here for A-19 afternoons, with 11730 to be next in B-19, should they attain higher-frequency capability. More likely NAU Isabela PR RTTY idling (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15330-USB, Oct 22 at 1351, 2-way in colloquial Spanish altho the other way inaudible, INTRUDERS upon the ex-AFRTS frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
