Glenn Hauser logs August 22, 2021

** CANADA. 346-MCW, Aug 22 at 0611 UT, NDB dash and YXL, 500 watts at SiouXLookout, Ontario; also on 332-MCW, dash and QT Thunder Bay atop nodash, IC Wichita KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6950-USB, Aug 22 at 0121, pirate music S9/+10, 0123 Wolverine Radio reverbing ID, into SSTV beepery and off by 0125* Many reports here of keyword theme ``Angel`` and SSTV images of one: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85410.0.html Gotta hand it to Mr Wolverine for creativity (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925-USB, Aug 22 at 0136, screaming, unreadable talk; then QRM from weak AM carrier on 6926.5, and nothing further heard. These say it`s a Zekey station, Choir Boy Radio or Quiet Boy Radio?: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85409.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 18155-USB, Aug 22 at 1350, W1K in contact with someham with a 5 in its call, unheard: could axually be in the traditional #5 call area of S Central USA from NM to OK to MS; but these days you never know, as hams can move or travel without changing calls or even slanting them. W1K quite a vanity call, only heard uttered once without fonetix, so not 100% certain. QRZ.com leads to no individual, but:

W1K USA flag USA
Wireless Society of Southern Maine
P.O. Box 6833
Scarborough, ME 04074
USA

The OSOB except for beepery around 18100; some 1600 miles away, more likely F2 MUF barely edging up to here than sporadic E. Inside 16m, hardly any 17855 Spain, but signs of 17560 & 17650 in French, CRI via East Turkistan, land of ChiCom Imperialist genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7489.9v, UT Sun Aug 22 at 0048 check, WBCQ playing music instead of repeating `AAAWWW` rant about FCC, WHRI purchase kaput. Program guide still does show AAAWWW during this hour. It`s never totally correct; another example:
7490 Mo 2300 0000 UTC Mo 07:00PM 08:00PM EST Uncle Bill's Melting Pot
7490 Mo 2330 0000 UTC Mo 07:30PM 08:00PM EST Camp Constitution Radio

Well, it can`t be both at 2330-0000, can it? In fact, UBMP always plays only the first 30 minutes, for many months. As a `filler`, Uncle Bill does not want to publicize it. Also all the times are mislabeled EST instead of EDT: they are NOT the same, rather one hour difference. But the times shown are really EDT, UT minus 4 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, UT Sun Aug 22 at 0026, TOUTA has just started with `Mr Sandman`; due to storms here, computer is disconnected as is the LW antenna thru the trees, so must listen to WTWW-2 only in mono shortwave, still plenty strong via the indoor LW; ends at 0054, back to Ted and his commercials and rock (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Aug 22 at 0602 UT just as I tune across, ID for KLEY on 1130 & 100.3, Wellington KS; surely 250 watt day power, not one watt night power, enough to overcome KWKH here (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
