** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98-RCUSB, Sept 1 at 1452, another week, another Wednesday, with no signal from LRA36 into Brasil SDR. Could the `season` be over? It was last heard Sunday August 8 concluding a 5-day-straight `marathon`, after which they made excuses due to weather. Will keep checking at least on Wed and Sat around this time (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5040, Sept 1 at 0129, S9 of dead air from RHC, where something is always wrong (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6000, Sept 1 at 0629, RHC English is still on here; normally turns off by 0600. The rest of The Cuban Five are also running late: 6060 undermodulated with somehum but not a lot of buzz; 6100 VG S9+20; 6165 undermod, all in English, and 5040 in music, Spanish service. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 9790, Sept 1 at 0637, huge S9+20 open carrier. RFI is scheduled at 0400-0700, but I think this must be CRI relay transmitter still on air after 0300-0457. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 6974.9-AM, Sept 1 at 0126, pirate music at S7-S9, much more than the usual JBA off-frequency carrier from presumed Nowhere Radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SPAIN [and non]. 11670, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, the *only* SNR token English frequency to be heard at Maryland SDR and UTwente. VG except at UTw bothered by splash from S9+30 11660, CRI French until 2230 via Kashgar, East Turkistan, land of ChiCom imperialist genocide; 11940 obviously still off the air [but JBA carrier at 2058, presumably remnant of CRI Bulgarian via Kashgar until 2057], but no signals either on 17855 or 15520, which I at first assume must be inaudiblized by degraded propagation, Sept 1 at 2058, but WWV at 2100 says K=0, SF=84, no storms yet, but moderate to G2 level forecast. So 75% of REE are off the air? Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, VOT VG into UTwente SDR opening English with news and press review; 2213 COVID PSA; 2214 `Feeling Supreme` about folk remedies starting with gargling lemon juice for sore throat, and finishing with something about the ``plodge`` in the XIV century -- I think he`s trying to say ``plague``. Something`s always awry at Ankara. 2222 music; 2225 plug the 41 languages available at trtvotbird.com ? No, that must be https://www.trtdinle.com/channel/trt-world where I listen for a few minutes to the conclusion of a discussion show `Newsmakers`, and then `Nexus` --- obviously a TV soundtrack without any video --- good accents in even American English unlike the SW station simultaneously in TurcoEnglish (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2101 monitoring: Sept 1 unawake as usual Wed 1030 on WRMI 5850; did anyone hear it?
Confirmed Wed Sept 1 at 2100 on WRMI 7780, and starting about 21 seconds later on WBCQ 7490-: both JBA S7 in storm noise here; at UTwente, 7780 also JBA S7 with storm noise tho no Blitz around Holland, none closer than east Spain, north Algeria, and west Black Sea. Into Maryland SDR, both S7 but not so noisy, WBCQ as always way low measured in SAM mode, minus 142v Hz = 7489.858. Next, and last:
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

Thanks this week to Dan in Cincinnati, who says, ``Dear Glenn, I am
writing to thank you again for all of the great information that you
gather and report weekly`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4790-, Sept 1 at 0626 check, WBCQ is off with no TOMBS, clearing frequency for CODAR swoorps. BTW, Aoki still doesn`t list WBCQ on 4790! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7490-, Wed Sept 1 at 2200, WBCQ with `AAAWWW` playback from last Friday night. I notice the waterfall at Maryland SDR is sort of spiral during `William Tell Overture` theme, I guess reflecting the modulation pattern of that piece (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, Sept 1 at 0125 check, WRNO New Orleans is still off. What will all their Hindi proto-Christian listener do after 0315? Probably until AC restored; no more reports until someone hear it again, on its token schedule of 0100-0400 UT only. It would have been less hazardous to transmit from Fort Worth (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Sept 1 at 0138-0148; tipped by 1 kHz het as I tune across 1000 KTOK OKC: 612, 657(2), 684, 729, 738, 747(2), 774(2), 801, 837(2), 855(2), 882, 909, 936(2), 999, 1044, 1053, 1062, 1089, 1098(2), *1107, 1125(2), 1134, 1152, 1215(2), 1296, 1305(2). At this early hour, all of Eurafrica is still in darkness. Probably mostly Spain and UK on frequencies with any significant power, altho *1107, momentarily strongest, and 1296 bring to mind Afghanistan, where Kabul sunrise was 0056 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 4810, Sept 1 at 0627, JBA carrier vs constant STANAG uteblob circa 4812. Possibly R. Logos, Chazuta, Perú, active? Tho Aoki shows it as the only 4810 station and at 0900-2400 only. WRTH agrees the only 4810 anywhere, anywhen is that 1 kW station, OAW9A. Nothing since 2019 or 2020 at http://www.ethnicradio.org which is missionary HQ in Orange, California. Not reported since late last year when there was also a lot of activity on disgraced FB: https://www.facebook.com/Radio-Logos-4810-Mhz-Chazuta-501777529885017 And only generic, undated info but with some still photos at: https://radiologoschazuta.com/es/ Of course, this 4810 could also be a ute (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
This report despatched at 2325 UT September 1
