Glenn Hauser logs November 20-21, 2021

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Sat Nov 20 at 1523 check, NO LRA36 signal into Pardinho, Brasil SDR. Now it`s pretty clear they are in summer hiatus, so I may not keep reporting non-logs until resurgence, in Feb or Mar? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 401 MCW kHz, Nov 21 at 0729, dash and YPO, 500 watt ND beacon at Peawanuck, Ontario.

376 MCW kHz, Nov 21 at 0732, dash and YAG, 40 watt NDB at Fort Frances ON. Copied as YAO but must have been this. Only these two as again confronting ``heat blower noise`` from some ``neighbor`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11880, Sat Nov 20 at 2200, 2219 chex, NO signal from RHC English as supposedly scheduled this B-21 hour, into Missouri, Brasil, RSA SDRs. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13568 approx., Nov 21 at 1557, RHC FMish spurblob with F# tone, S3, i.e. minus 132 kHz from 13700-AM, so it`s 2nd order; and first should be minus 66 kHz = 13634: and there it is, a bit stronger S6, but cuts off at 1558* as 13700 has also been turned off before I can check matches on plus side which should be 13766 and 13832; not to mention 3+ multiples outward. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, Nov 21 at 1601, RHC still in Spanish // 11760 and 9710. 1603 Spanish ``sign-off`` 15140 & 11760 redirecting to FM. 1604 finally starts Sunday-only Esperanto late, and 9710 is off. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9900, Nov 20 at 2140 check, NO signal from R. Cairo, English into UTwente; however some 9 MHz broadcasts are again being reported on Nov 21 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 15, November 21 around 0435 UT, tuning thru the virtual channels of KTBO, the TBN station in OKC, I see on 14-5 an old B&W movie instead of gospel-huxtering; silenced with captions I am startled to see something about ``big tits`` --- on TBN!!! Soon recognized as `Paper Moon` starring Tatum O`Neal (who at that time did not have any). She`s now 58 and has had a hard life: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSKaqpJn6bo

POSITIV TV specializes in classic ``wholesome`` movies. Here`s the skedgrid, probably available widely OTA if not on cable: https://positiv.tv/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/POSITIV-NOVEMBER-1-30-21.pdf (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A. 5050, Nov 21 at 0025 checking whether WWRB still be up here: it is, and happen to catch Dave Frantz announcing his QSY plans as of next Saturday: since some receivers won`t tune below 3200, trying 3360 instead from 9 pm EST = *0200 UT, duration probably variable for a couple hours? Still on 3215 at 6-9 pm EST = *2300-0200* UT when WWCR takes over 3215. Recently someone had an unID on 3360, possibly this testing? Dave still doesn`t get it that he doesn`t need to change frequency in mid-transmission to accommodate WWCR. For now, 5050 is only S6-S7 with splash from 5040 Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Nov 21 at 0051, WTWW-2 webcast starting `Theatre Organ Under the Arch`, another George Wright tribute but the music from an old recording is rather distorted unlike the new talk commentary. That plus glut of other programming at 0100 makes me leave it for `Encore` classical music on WRMI 5850, nor TRSW FRSH on WRMI 5950. Already back to rock at 0145 check so this week well under 59 minutes long (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, Nov 21 at 0713 UT checking for open carrier KLEY Wellington KS, yes, it`s still there making fast SAH with KWKH, but also something in Spanish: partial non-ID only as ``La Mejor``, but that`s enough to make it WLBA Gainesville GA, the 10 kW *daytimer* previously caught here at night. Mexmx ensued (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6020, Nov 21 at 0714, JBA carrier, checking since Kari Kallio, Finland had just reported R. Delta International, Netherlands active at 0651, a low-power station I don`t really expect to hear direct. At 0717 there is another JBA carrier beating against it. Per EiBi the only other one now could be VOV-4 Vietnam, but it`s rather early for it to propagate. Also in Aoki, plus 24h imaginary R. Victoria, Peru (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
