** CHINA. 6140, Jan 31 at 2355, YL singing ``Swing Low, Sweet Chariot`` until cut off at 2357*. Typical rude behaviour of CRI: yes, listed as Cantonese service via Kunming site, but whyever would they be broadcasting that song/hymn? 6100 also propagating, CRI Portuguese fill music via Beijing site; not to mention 12190, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. 12190, Jan 31 at 2347 Chinese, VP with heavy flutter, CODAR QRM; a *jammed Sound of Hope frequency, presumably with CNR1. I bet this is on Wolfie`s latest exhaustive monitoring of these:
``Log of Jan 23-26 checked some Asian target outlets on remote SDRs in Hiroshima, Akitakata, northern Tokyo Japan; as well as at Doha Qatar and eastern Thailand SDR rxs.
12189.955 TWN SOH Chinese S=4-5 weak and tiny at 0626 UT on Jan 26 12190even CHN CNR1 jamming signal against TWN SOH services at 0748``
But I was hearing only one signal. I deleted ``UT`` after the second time as redundant clutter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 5010-, Feb 1 at 0332, JBA carrier on minus side as in RNM; but I was not hearing any of it before 0200 vs WOR/WRMI, nor after (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 88.3 WBFM, Feb 1 at 0328 UT, for the first time tonight, K202BY translator for Enid is back on the air with nominal good signal and modulation, no spurs, obviously repaired/replaced for new owners, from Family Radio, to ``Great Plains Christian Radio``, a.k.a. KJIL, originating with 99.1 full-power in Copeland KS. They have a bunch of translators and a few non-translators in western KS, but as far east as Emporia, plus adjacent parts of CO, TX and OK, including a translator as close to Enid as Fairview but not heard until now in Enid. Program was `Focus on the Family` ``on KJIL``, then commercial for Harvest Transport. Now I`ll have to use 88.1 instead for RF feeder purposes in the car and home, or even further to avoid ACI. As I had been reporting, K202BY had been out of whack, dead air, or off the air for many months, depriving us of the wisdom and remarkable prophecy of Harold Camping (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** THAILAND. 13750, Jan 31 at *2357.6, VP carrier on, as I am parked here waiting for HSK9`s so-called eastern North American service direct from Udorn; 0000 Feb 1, JBA modulation. Never better than this here, or inaudible. No Cuba on 13740 tonight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 31 at 2345, VOT English to us gone again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2019 monitoring: confirmed first WRMI broadcast, Friday January 31 at 2300 on 9955 --- I`m listening via Bogotá KiwiSDR where reception is good with no jamming audible, but at 2323 check direct, mixing with jamming, more or less readable depending on fading, but night conditions are closing in and dropping the MUF.
Never mind my suggestion that others listen now via Colombia; that SDR only accommodates a few listeners at a time; so if you can access it via the web, you can also access the WRMI webcast, or podcast via multiple sources; do that rather than tie up SDR.
Also confirmed UT Saturday February 1 at 0130 on three WRMIs direct: 5010, S9+10 but noisy; 5850, S9+10/20, better but not the big solid signal it usually is; and 7780, only S9 and noisy. Next:

** U S A. 5850, UT Sat Feb 1 at 0200, WRMI starting VORW after WOR,
this time John saying it`s the ``newest`` show of Thursday 15 August
--- so he`s still rerunning during dental healing; three weeks ago it
was the 8 August show (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. (7490.25v), UT Sat Feb 1 before 0100, hardly any signal from WBCQ nor on 5130, so I bring up webcasts for `AAAWWW`, both main and Area 51, but despite WTO theme, it`s Pirate Joe substituting this week, into political ruminations which I might find agreeable, but not expecting any WBCQ tech or programming info, move on to other monitoring. John Carver in IN was not getting either SW signal at all until end of hour on 5130. 7490+ had been audible here but fading down by 2300 for `Behaviour Night` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 17775, Jan 31 at 1951, VP signal S6-S7 with gospel music, presumably in Spanish, the SSOB and also the OSOB: KVOH. Nice to know it still exist, as usually inaudible, especially when checked around nominal *1500 M-F. We still await an update about if and when their `new` transmitter was ever put into service (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 8992-USB, Feb 1 at 0003, ``New Deal`` concluding alfanumeric cryptomessage, pause, ID and repeat. NO RTTY CCI today, and always has echo/reverb to add to its mystery. Never the same ID again; or from same site? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 12746-USB, Jan 31 at 2348, 2-way in colloquial informal Spanish, engine noise, not long before `puta` mentioned; intruders? I wish some native speakers would monitor all these and give us an idea what/where they are about (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
