Glenn Hauser logs September 2-3, 2021

** BRAZIL. 4885, Sept 2 at 0645, quarter-hour pips like a timesignal, Rádio Bandeirantes IDs and promos, which is the network R. Clube do Pará relays a lot; now no sign of a second carrier from Acre vs this S9/+10, biggest Brazie on band. By 0900, Bryan Clark, NZ, was hearing them both competing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15370, Sept 2 at 1504, RHC S9+20 undermodulated with `Efemérides` segment, wrong frequency instead of vacant 15140; also nothing on 15230, but // 11760; while on 31m there remains S7-S9 of dead air on 9710 not yet turned off. Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NEW ZEALAND. 7245, Sept 2 at 0600+, no signal from RNZP which is supposed to start this frequency now; nor any on 11725, scheduled until 0559. But Ivo Ivanov, Bulgaria, was tracking it: ``Radio New Zealand Pacific on wrong frequencies at 0600 UT, September 2: till 0604 on 13840 instead of 11725 kHz; from 0604 on 11725 instead of 7245 kHz; from 0614 on 7245 RAN 050 kW / 035 deg to All Pacific English, as scheduled in A-21`` When I check again at 0649, 7245 has indeed come up. A Thursday so maybe disrupted by maintenance testing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 1170, Sept 2 at 0606 UT, ``Talk Radio 11-70`` ID still from KFAQ Tulsa, not ``The Blitz 1170 AM`` stupid ballgame talk as previously publicized to start Aug 23. Brock Whaley, SC forwards an allaccess.com story that the flip is now scheduled to begin Tuesday Sept 7, but refers to new format ``all day``, nothing about overnight. Loss of one of countless `C2CAM` affiliates would hardly be missed, except perhaps by Tulsans who can`t imagine any out-of-town AM radio (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2102)

** PERU. 4810, Sept 2 at 0642 previous JBA carrier has improved to JBA music, so a broadcaster, vs CODAR and LSB tuning essential vs STANAG noise on 4812. Also 0659-0702+ but music continues, no ID. I still think it`s likely reactivated R. Logos, Chazuta, as does Bryan Clark, New Zealand, who replies Sept 2 to my yesterday`s report:

``Glenn, I have heard non-stop music on 4810 LSB several times over the past week. I recorded the frequency on 29 August from 0723 past 0900 UTC and the music sounds like contemporary Christian vocals. The frequency measured here is 4809.993. I am now replaying my recording for any other clues and will advise, but my guess would be Radio Logos.

Earlier today (0859 UTC) I discovered a Latin American station on 4939.973 with good signals, co-channel with the Colombian religious station. Latter was clear on the Bonaire KiwiSDR with only the barest trace of the other station showing on the waterfall. Checking an Argentinean SDR I found the mystery station was at good level. I have yet to replay my recording but suspect that this is Peruvian Radio San Antonio, which MWOffsets io Group lists as on 4939.971. Best regards from Mangawhai, New Zealand - Bryan Clark``

4810, Sept 3 at 0105, via Bonaire SDR a definite carrier, but just a bit of talk modulation even in LSB tuning, S4 unreadable (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2102)

** U S A. 329-MCW kHz, Sept 2 at 0635 UT, ND beacon PMV, 25 watts from Plattsmouth NE. Noise level diminished a bit audiblizing it.

326-MCW kHz, Sept 2 at 0636 UT, NDB MA, 400 watts from Midland TX, also not heard for months. I was tuned to 324-USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565-CW, Sept 2 at 1507, HIFER beacon is JBA with ID K6FRC repeating, QRMing CODAR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7370-7380, Sept 2 at 0559, sounds like WINB`s hybrid DRM, but not currently scheduled on any 7 MHz frequency per EiBi and HFCC. But Aoki shows 07-10 M-F on 7315, i.e. 7310-7320, as in B-season. Nothing there now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2102)

UNIDENTIFIED. 5808-USB, Sept 2 at 0653, weak 2-way in unID language, unseems Spanish; far enough away from 5800 WRMI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
