Glenn Hauser logs October 24, 2021

** CUBA. 11760, Oct 24 at 1419, RHC is S9 of humbuzz only; something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 11530, Oct 24 at 1420, ME music S8-S9 with a fast SAH; 1458 still with roughly equal clash, i.e. Denge Welat and TURKEY jamming. D.W. is supposed to switch site from PRIDNESTROVYE to FRANCE at 1500, but I detect no break or change as music continues until 1501 one of them starts to talk (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 341-MCW kHz, re my observation that NDB in Enid, EI, has not been heard here in weeks, even from the airport parking lot, Harold Frodge forwards this reply From Dave Tomasko: ``Heard by Joe Farley 9/26, Doug Springfield 7/24/ Was off for about 6 months between 11/20 to 5/21. Not sure where Glen[n] is checking?? Not heard here often, but will give it a call out when it shows up. Last time I caught this guy was 10/19.``

? where I`m checking? About 10 miles away from EI 341 in Enid. When on it`s always very weak, probably less than rated 25 watts. Or maybe it get out better via skywave than groundwave? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2109 monitoring: again no one has replied to my request for European monitoring of our new broadcast via WMRI Europe, via Channel 292, Germany, 9670, Sundays at 1230 UT. So I crawl out of bed myself to check at 1233 Oct 24 via UTwente SDR, and pleased to hear a VG signal S8-S9 with no CCI from the simultaneous Vietnam clandestine from Taiwan; but some adjacent splash, yet nothing on 9675 or 9665. Must be from the China radio wars on 9680 & 9660 CNR1 echoing. At 1235 the 9670 signal suddenly surges as if power up or antennaed up? To S9+25. Readout as only 4 Hz off-frequency-minus and modulation is also good and clear.

Note from next week will be one real UT hour later, Sundays at 1330, possibly a different QRM situation. I wonder what else be on this test transmission Sundays only, but the schedule here is extremely uninformative, not even WOR: https://wmrieurope.com/wrmi_schedule/ Ha, note even they typed it wrmi by mistake.
