Glenn Hauser logs April 10, 2021

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Saturday April 10 at 1423, start checking for LRA36 via remotes in Brasil, Uruguay, but no signals, now nor 1446, 1500. However, by 1505 it`s on and in weakly, VP S3. During next hour it`s about equally VP at three Brazilian SDRs and the CX8BIT one in Uruguay. 1509 mentions Antártida Argentina, but immediately ``despedimos``, closing pre-recorded show which must have been joined-in-progress - JIP. Esperanza song and stops at 1513. But not off: after a pause, resumes with other music, but fading down at 1517. 1520 song again, 1522 contact info; 1537 generic ``Nacional, la Radio Pública`` ID as uttered I think by all LRA stations, song; 1559 announcements, but chopped off the air in mid-word at 1603.5*.

Re my previous report, not hearing it after 1530 Wed April 7: Giovanni Lorenzi, Italy replied on the PTSW iog, but without citing a time, ``Hi Glenn, I have heard today LRA36 using kiwi sdr receiver located in Montevideo, Uruguay with fair signal. Attached mp3. 73 de Giovanni, IT9TZZ`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11930 & 11860, April 10 at 0215, after-hours jamming against nothing continues, not only noise, but those cute beeps I was hearing six hours earlier around 13605. Partly 2-tones; when continuous they are running at the rate of 72/minute. Probably only one of the multiple jamming sites piling up on each Martí frequency does this. Will we ever have access to jam site details in the Post-Revolución Era? C.I.D.; ¡Cuba Libre! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 6165, April 10 at 0306, JBA carrier could be Turkey in English to Asia instead ofo RHC Englilsh, but not on 6145; while 6000 English is readable; 6060 in Spanish, but none can compete with storm noise level around here. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 5040, April 10 at 0602, this RHC is still in Spanish instead of English, but at 0605, of The Cuban Five, the four sixes, 6000 & 6060 & 6100 & 6165 are still on in English, unlikely all for the full hour; and all tough vs local high storm noise level. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ETHIOPIA. 6090, April 10 at 0309, HOA music at S6-S7, presumably Amhara State Radio. Not reported much from NAm, but Manuel Méndez, Spain often logs it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 11725, April 10 at *0559:15, RNZP cuts on with Bell Bird chirps, tonight starting at scheduled time. I was waiting for it a minute earlier after noting Vanuatu JBA carrier on 11835. Timesignal at 0600 ends about one second *late*! compared to WWVH a minute later. Is Rangitaiki, NI SW site getting a delayed internet feed, or satellite, or what? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 91.7, Saturday April 10 at 1337 UT, KOSU in NPR `Weekend Edition Saturday`, when double audio starts, such as two different NPR/KOSU promos colliding, and soon apparently start playback of 1400 UT show, `Wait2, Don`t Tell Me`, VERY early. This collision keeps going for about 20 minutes! As I keep rechecking, can`t stand to listen to it continually. Really screwed up, nohuman minding the store (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 9660, April 10 at 0555, JBA carrier, presumed RRI again on wrong frequency like IDed 24 hours ago; or a deliberate change? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. Further checking for what remain of TOMBS via WRMI, April 10 at 0310: 7570 still off; 7730 on; 7780 algo too weak to tell; BS singing on 7730 and also 7490- WBCQ, 9395 WRMI. Something else on 5950: see USA WRMI.

April 10 at 1401, the `live` TOM Sabbathday services, first week after BS has died: WRMI 9955 instead running Tourette-screamer Terry Blalock. Haven`t heard him erupt for a while. As for TOMBS, 7570 still off, but 7730 on along with 9980 WWCR. Some non-BS gospel huxter is speaking and singing: a successor? Who? Also on 9395, 9455, and 5850 in weekly daytime extension; JBA signals on 15770, 7780, 5950, can`t be sure of content. The SW sked at TOMBS website is still dated last August! Long out of date even before UT April 4* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Saturday April 10 at 1359, REE citing its schedule: first time in A-21 it`s been on and audible at the early weekend opening time, over totally insolated path, attaining S9 but not over S9 as one would hope. 15520 backward is only S6-S8, and offbeam 11940 JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2081 monitoring: confirmed Sat April 10 at 1320 the 1300 on WRMI 15770, S9.

** U S A. 5950, April 10 at 0311, soul? song but I guess an hymn, since followed by gospel huxter constantly referring to ``Yahweh`` --- woe betide other Christians who call it merely ``God``. Yahweh`ll get `em for that! WRMI skedgrid shows it`s `Classic Redneck Radio` on System L (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) See also SOUTH CAROLINA [non]

** U S A. 1319.717v, April 10 at 0607 UT, way-off-frequency het still detectable from previously identified WCOG, Greensboro NC. But nothing on 1540.200v from WKVQ Eatonton GA, daytimer which sometimes manages to go off at night (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, April 10 at 0557, JBA carrier, OSOB again presumed 3 x 3945 R. Vanuatu; but NZ will soon take over 11725, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
