Glenn Hauser logs May 14-15, 2020

** CHINA [non]. 11880, May 14 at 1441 check, CRI Plus English relay via CUBA again absent; May 15 sometime after 1500 it is not absent. So apparently the first hour has been dropped (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** CUBA. 6100, May 15 at 0604, this is the strongest RHC English frequency by far, S9+20 --- except it`s dead air. Weaker 6060 only S9+10 is modulated; much weaker S9 6145 is modulated; 6000 and 5040 are off already. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13660, May 15 at 1340, RHC leapfrog mixing product JBA // 13700 and 13740, 40 kHz beyond; also audible weaker on reverse 13780. 13700 is S9+10/20; 13740 is S9+20/30. No spurblobs today. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2034 contents: Albania non, Antarctica, Armenia, Bougainville, Canada, China, Colombia, Cuba, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Iran non, Japan, Korea South and non, Laos, Mali, México, Netherlands, Nicaragua non?, North America, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Solomon Islands, Spain, Sudan, Turkey, USA, Zambia, Zanzibar; publications; and the propagation outlook

[Note, in my last report WOR numbers were one digit off. Last week`s was 2033, this week`s 2034] (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9955, May 15 at 1418, once again this Friday, WRMI on late with ME song, presumably from World Music loop; S9 fading to S5; off by 1422 recheck (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15825, May 15 at 1531, WWCR-1 at S9+20 so getting sporadic E boost, of which there is a lot across America, but MUF below the FM band; 13845 WWCR-3 also S9+10 rather than JBA; but 12160 WWCR-2 must be off, and not on 7490 either at 1536 check. Rather, a JBA carrier on 12160 when nothing else is scheduled, so maybe WWCR exciter only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
