Glenn Hauser logs May 13, 2020

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.97-CUSB, May 13 at 1540, JBA carrier direct from LRA36, almost all-water path from Esperanza to Enid; tnx to Manuel Méndez` word from LRA36 that they are now on every Wednesday from 1400. Still there at 1607, so after breakfast of homemade fruit cocktail and English muffin, jams, bring up Pardinho Brasil SDR to find good signal there, nothing but songs except for ID at 1615.5, some long pauses, more songs and stops at 1623.7* without any sign-off or further announcement, still off at 1630 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL [and non]. 9665.301, May 13 at 0603, music no doubt Voz Missionária now askewed plus, and also JBA het from 9665.00, presumably N Korea already propagating its 22 hpd broadcast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 248-MCW kHz, May 13 at 0552, ND beacon dash and WG, i.e. 1000 watts from Winnipeg; no other Canadians audible and very little from USA on beacon band, yet a good signal here from our closest contact to Canada almost due north 1503 km = one sesquimegameter. Nearest storms along the TX Gulf coast (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 3215, May 13 at 0557, S9+20 of dead air from this WWCR instead of Brother HyStairical.

4840, May 13 at 0557, WWCR OK mod here, outro about Alex Jones on this particular frequency, fragment of steel drum but not closing down. BTW, I am now bothered by local line noise up to S9+10 on the 4-5 MHz band. Hardly anything on 4885 from Brasil, or is Pará off? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
