Glenn Hauser logs December 30-31, 2021

** CUBA. 6000, Dec 30 at 0729, RHC English still on here and nofrequency else, except JBA carrier on 12000; S9+10/20 but undermodulated on 6000 which is normally off a sesquihour earlier. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15230, Dec 30 at 1539, RHC only a trace of modulation, while `Sonido Cubano` music show is well audible on // 15140, 13700, 11760, 9710. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN [and non]. 7445, Dec 30 at 0726, quite a mess collision at about equal levels from NHK direct in Japanese, and KBS World Radio in Korean via UK. You`d think these neighbors could get along better; or did the agree to ``share``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** PUERTO RICO. 391 MCW kHz, Dec 30 at 0739 UT, DDP, ND beacon at San Juan / Dorado, is JBA, with occasional storm crashes from AL/GA. I think I have discovered how to hear DDP: Post an item a few days before about it *not* being heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 28300 CW, Dec 30 at 1911, K6FRC/B beacon again from CA, some sporadic E not reaching FM band. The WJ5O list, which is historical as well as current, shows two other K6FRCs on 28300, but not with the exact call I copy with the /B.

28286.5 CW, Dec 30 at 1913, WB0BIN, beacon with calls fast and slow alternating. Often heard before rather than hundreds of others listed by WJ5O: ``28.2865 WBØBIN C SABIN, MINNESOTA # 7W, GP VERTICAL New 22 Apr 18`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2119 monitoring: confirmed UT Thursday December 30 at 0130 on WRMIs: 9395, S9 into Missouri SDR; 5010, S9+10 but JBA vs noise level at Boa Vista, Brasil TWR SDR.

WOR 2119 confirmed UT Fri Dec 31 at 0130 on WRWI 7780, S9/+10 but noisy direct, likewise at Virginia SDR; better S9+10 and not noisy into Maine SDR. BUT 5850 is OFF the air! Not heard direct or at remotes. It is back on by 0159 when WOR is over, maybe a bit earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, Dec 30 at 0727, S9/+10 of dead air or trace of modulation; in Hindi, Chinese, or English? from WRNO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. 12050, Dec 30 at 1540, NO signal from WEWN Spanish. If it stay off, clearing channel for Ndarason at 19-21, which per EiBi follows this convoluted site switcheroo schedule:

12050 1900-1930 Mo-Sa TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /ASC
12050 1900-1930 Su TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /UAE
12050 1930-2000 TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /UAE
12050 2000-2030 Sa-Th TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /ASC
12050 2000-2030 Fr TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /UAE
12050 2030-2100 TCD Radio Ndarason Int. KNU WAf /ASC

WEWN, RCM, is still off at 1748 check. Probably due to Blitz over central Alabama, Georgia: https://www.blitzortung.org/en/live_lightning_maps.php?map=30

Shux; 1902 check, WEWN back on 12050, no Ndarason. 15610 English also started, Es boost so can hear the squeal. Apparently live show commenting on ``insane weather`` B`ham are having, T-storms this morning (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7730, UT Fri Dec 31 at 0035 tune-in, lots of clips some in English and the great music of the defunct Radio Sweden, which left SW in 2010 -- it`s the topic of `La Rosa de Tokio` on WRMI this week, presumably with some further repeats (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 5040, Dec 30 at 0725, JBA carrier presumably RV, with Cuba off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
