** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Aug 25 at 1455 check, another Wednesday with no signal from LRA36 into Brazilian SDR; recheck at 1807 via another one, still no signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6165 & 5040, Aug 25 at 0515, RHC English is OFF these already, while 6000 & 6100 are sufficiently on, and 6060 marred by that humbuzz. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Aug 25 at 0612, JBA carrier, presumed R. Kiribati as usual; too late now for any other 9 kHz splits from Europe; and too early for any further Pacificans? I usually also check 1098 for Marshalls (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) But on SW: see SOLOMONS, VANUATU
** NORTH AMERICA. 11840, Aug 25 at 1530, Station YHWH with good S7-S8 signal into VE6JY #3 Kiwi as before, tnx to tip from Rick Barton who was hearing him well direct to AZ. 100% readable for me, earnest proclamation of one true myth to replace another. 1556 ID and seems to be signing off but keeps going, Yahweh coming soon to establish a worldwide theocracy, whoopee. ``Exposing fake demon hybrid man-god Jesus Christ``. Blames homosexual, pedophiliac Catholic church. 1608 Josiah Elias [accent both on the long-I] wrapping up again, now up to S9/+10, introduces ``Days of Hard Life`` themetune, 1610.5 cut back on to more preaching until owner-operator of ``longest-running pirate radio station in the world`` finally finishes and turns off at 1612* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Aug 25 at 0606 UT, KFAQ with ``Talk Radio 11-70`` slogan still. Have not paid any attention in daytime whether switching to sports blitz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. RF channels 8, 10, 11, 20, 26 and 34, Aug 25 at 1528 UT, only BAD signals into STB, correlating with a bit of tropo from Tulsa market, as implied by maps (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** SOLOMON ISLANDS. 5020, Aug 25 at 0557, JBA carrier much like 5040 Vanuatu, SIBC presumed. Maybe back to making usual switch from 9545 at 0500. Still past 0623 as is ACI from 5025 Cuba. However, Honiara sunset not until 0719 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN. 15520, Aug 25 at 2206, yet more dead air in English, S3-S7 via Maryland SDR, while the others are modulating, best 11940 S8/9+10, then 17855 S8-S9, last 11670 S5-S7; 2208 into rock music after ID as ``English service of Spanish National Radio``. No longer known as Radio Exterior de España? As still heading its WRTH 2021 entry (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, Aug 25 at 2208, VOT English is not AWOL today, S9/+15 into Maryland SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4095+, Aug 25 at 0609, sweeps upward alternating with brief CW, probably DW for Desert Whooper. Still JBA vs high storm noise level. The Team at DW says exact frequency is 4095.65; and beware of similar beacons very near same frequency.
4102+, Aug 25 at 0610, JBA CW, presumed the W beacon also in the southwest desert (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2100 monitoring: zzz Wed Aug 25 at 1030 on WRMI 5850; did anyone hear it? Confirmed Wed Aug 25 at 2100 on WRMI 7780, S7-S8 into Maryland SDR; and 21 seconds later slightly better S8-S9 on WBCQ 7490 minus 160 Hz = 7489.84. Next and last:
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Next new WOR 2101 should be ready by early UT Fri Aug 27 for first broadcasts at 0130 on WRMIs 5850 & 7780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 5040, Aug 25 at 0557, JBA carrier, after RHC begone, and still past 0623. Must be R. Vanuatu, reported reactivated here as of August 24 by Lúcio Bobrowiec, Brasil after missing a month from any frequency, then also by Bryan Clark, NZ and Ron Howard, California; and Ivo Ivanov using remotes suggests they are staying on 5040 at all times. As soon as I heard 5040 I checked for second harmonic 10080 but nothing there. Same? transmitter when on 3945 would harmonicize persistently on 7890 and 11835, even 15780. Sunset at Port Vila 0639, not the exact SW site of Emten Lagoon, Efate (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
This report dispatched at 0005 UT August 26
