** NEW ZEALAND [+ non]. 7245, June 17 at 0610, RNZP now here earlier, VG S9+20/30, tough luck Region 2 hams. Easily outshines neighbor 7255 Nigeria which altho happens to be on tonight, is S9+10/20 of just-barely modulation. Last night at same time I discovered NZ missing from 11725, yet Vanuatu harmonic detectable on 11835.

** OKLAHOMA. Heavy tropo between Tulsa and here, but supposedly not quite reaching Enid, yet June 17 after 1505 UT, lots of BAD signals mostly correlating with Tulsa area market: RF 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 21, 22, 28, 34, 36 --- and only two decoding into my broken antenna:

** U S A. Once again in absence of any FM DX breaking the 88 MHz sporadic E MUF barrier, I settle for 10m CW ham beacons, many of them heard before, June 16 at 2341-2357 UT, with WJ5O & QRZ.com listings:

``K0HTF USA flag USA, THOMAS E H GRUIS, EdD, URBANDALE, IA 50322-4168``
50130-USB, June 17 at 0011 despite my inadequate VHF antenna, check 6m and hear only one phone frequency active; with TWO stations on it QRMing each other, and I think each was in contact with someone else unheard; talking about 2m propagation; one maybe called K4QS
24 hours later a few more:
28209+, June 17 at 2313, VVV VVV VVV DE K7EM#/B -- must be as before: ``28.2093 K7EMX C KEARNS, UTAH # 3W, VERTICAL New 5 August 2016``

First broadcasts confirmed UT Fri June 18 at 0130 on WRMIs 5850, VG direct; and 7780, VG S9+10/20 into Maine SDR - which has a 30-minute limit and reload required after 20 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9955, June 17 at 1451, WRMI-3 playing ``Cayman Holiday`` which is really a cruise commercial; fill music instead of Brother Scare. Current grid shows at 1430-1500 M-F is supposed to be `Dr Allen Presents`; BS this semihour only on Sat. Line markings on the grid however indicate 9955 still on air at 1500-1600 with Music and World Radio Network, daily; unconfirmed. Line may be misplaced (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 11635, June 17 at 1448, S6-S8 jazz music; pause and another tune, no announcement, probably album trax as test; distracted at 1458 for StarDate from KUCO, but think jazz went slightly past 1500, off 1501*. Nothing listed now; only 11635 stations elsewhen are CRI, Cuban spy numbers, and Korea N per Aoki & EiBi; only CRI of course in HFCC; and also an imaginary Armavir, Russia starting at 1500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
