Glenn Hauser logs September 3, 2021

** CUBA [and non]. 820, Sept 3 at 0617, whooper occasionally audible vs WBAP, and not on 870 vs WWL at the moment (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, Sept 3 at 0240, RHC English frequency is off, nor on 5990 either; is on 6165. Could 6000 transmitter be on another wrong frequency as happens? None found: 11670 and 11850 in Spanish, 11760 off; 6060 also in Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RHC.

6000 English is running by next check at 0634, S9+30; also 6060 JBM English under humbuzz, 6100 good S9+10 and 6165 off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4765, Sept 3 at 0342, R. Progreso is OFF, despite sked as 0030-0400. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba. BTW, proper Spanish words lack double-S; possible in Italian names, etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Sept 3 at 1451, RHC back on today after excursion to 15370 yesterday, but it`s suptorted S9/+10. 15230 is always weaker, S5-S9 but sufficient modulation. 11760 is S9/+10 but undermodulated at 1455. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9475, Sept 3 at 1456, hymn-like music, M&W talk in presumed Korean, from National Unity clandestine via TAIWAN, S7-S9 and off by 1500 as scheduled; lacking WTWW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6969-USB, UT Fri Sept 3 at 0242, pirate mostly talk with 2 or 3 guys chatting, rapidly, poorly enunciated and a hard time figuring out what they are talking about, but F-bombs and S-bombs every few seconds! Yet one manages a big word, ``neuro-linguistic``. Maybe a call-in over phones? Bits of wild ``music`` here and there such as 0249.5. S9+20/30. I wonder if the frequency choice convey a secret implication? 0303 discussing computers. 0308 muse about ``trying to get on all SW frequencies``; eQSL from L0DE@L0DE.com sounds like, and that 0 = zero, mentions HF Underground. 0311 disjointed music to 0314.7* Many reports here as: ``L0de Radio Hour 6969 USB 0113 UTC 3 September 2021`` https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,85862.0.html L0DE.com is a real Not Secure website, leading to numerous audios of previous broadcasts of Nov/Dec 2018 tho I`d never heard it nor heard of it before. Maybe this replayed one of them (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 11840, Fri Sept 3 at 1454, I run across the intonations of Josiah, anti-Christ pirate Station YHWH, but unreadable as S7-S9 equals the high local line noise level I still suffer from. Seems he is often on 11840 in the mornings. Previously with good signal into Alberta remote, not checked today (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PERU. 4810, Sept 3 at 0628, JBA music audible on LSB only vs STANAG on plus side, still confronting CODAR, presumed R. Logos, Chazuta (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PHILIPPINES. 9410, Sept 3 at 1501 tune-in to dead air, and off in a few seconds. Scheduled 1400-1500 is VOA Korean via Tinang; before and after for many hours on 9410, various BBC languages and sites (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SAO TOME. UNID 4960, Sept 3 at 0340, S9/+10 of open carrier, VOA Sao Tome? Not scheduled in HFCC & EiBi until 0400-0500 English daily, 0500-0530 Hausa daily, 0530-0600 French M-F, 0700-0730 Hausa daily; 2030-2100 Hausa daily, all 100 kW at 30 degrees. Aoki agrees except for 2030 on M-F only. 4960 carrier still at 0629. No other stations anywhen on 4960. Almost on Equator, sunrise varies only ~30 minutes during the year, currently 0529 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4980, Sept 3 at 0630, WRMI TOMBS is missing, but there is some Cuban style pulse-jamming. AFAIK, WRMI has never put any exile programs on 4980 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 5040, Sept 3 at 0631, JBA carrier presumed R. Vanuatu after Cuba is off. Wish they would pump up the second harmonic on 10080 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
