Glenn Hauser logs January 20, 2022

** CANADA. My line noise peak around 400 kHz continues to block MCW beacons, but propagation has improved enough to reaudiblize some Canux on lower frequencies, Jan 20 at 0733: 346 dash and YXL, 500 watts from Sioux Lookout, Ont; 335 dash and YLD, 1000 watts from Chapleau, Ont.; 332 dash and QT, 1000 watts from Thunder Bay, Ont.; 248, dash and WG, 1000 watts from Winnipeg, Man. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 4747 & 4883 approx., Jan 20 at 0212, loud wideband scratchy spurblobs out of 4765 R. Progreso, into Colombia SDR worse than heard here before, but all cut off air at 0213* Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6060, Jan 20 at 0713, only RHC frequency left, the one with humbuzz, S9/+10, English announcer pronounces it oh-MEE-kron, apparently never having heard mainstream world media say the word, always accented on first syllable, tho never agreeing on long or short o. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, Jan 20 at 1553, RHC #1 legacy frequency, S9/+10 distorted and breaking up; 9710 is also S9/+10 but just barely modulated. Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 11685, Jan 20 at 1554, open carrier and nothing on 11670; can it be REE? Yes, starts earworm IS at 1555. The frequency for Africa has been confusing, contradictory listings. Until now this B21 season I have consistently heard it on 11670. Something`s always nonsensical at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2122)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2121 monitoring: confirmed UT Thursday Jan 20 at 0150 the 0130 on WRMIs: 5010 direct S9 = noise level; 9395 JBA S4-S5. At 0154 to Maryland SDR: 5010 poor S5-S7, 9395 fair S7; to Missouri SDR: 5010 S8, 9395 JBA. To new? SDR Aguadas in Colombia: 5010 VG S9+10/30 where it`s aimed but SDR way miscalibrated showing minus 502 Hz carrier! Heard 0159 WOR ending without truncation.
