** AUSTRALIA [non]. (5035), Sat March 5 at 2040, no problem this month connecting to live stream of `Calling All Radio Nutzz`, at http://uk4-vn.mixstream.net:8104/index.html I had just seen a reminder of it on the WOR iog altho it was posted at 1752, for the 1900-2100 show, so it`s almost over. Jen in S Florida and GB in UK take turns with live-tuning segment, but don`t have much success. He was trying to separate Bahrain from Spain on 1521 kHz since Sa`udi is silent. Jen says they have two more monthly shows - April and May, before taking off until September. Outro music runs over until 2105 CARN and then Unique Radio IDs (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** AZORES. 6114, March 6 circa 0700 quick check, USN RTTY is still rampant abutting 6115 Nikkei, Japan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BRAZIL. Ten meter contest F2 DX continues on 10 meters, quick check at 0005 UT March 6, yes, yet mostly darkness path:
28350 USB, PY2YVN:
PY2YVN Brazil flag Brazil
Rafael Gonçalves, PO-Box 49 Votorantim São Paulo, Votorantim, SP 18110972, Brazil, of the Sorocaba DX Group. Lots of info in Portuguese and photos at https://www.qrz.com/lookup/py2yvn
28372 USB, PY5AMF:
PY5AMF Brazil flag Brazil
(MAR) AMÉLIO ALVES DE MARINS FILHO, RUA SEZINO RAMOS 2097, GUARAGUAÇU - PONTAL DO PARANÁ, PR 83255000, Brazil. More photos, smaller ones: https://www.qrz.com/lookup/py5amf
I also took the opportunity to make a quick scan for JBA carriers from SWBC harmonics on 28-30, 27-28, 23-25 MHz. Maybe at solar max, but there are so few fundamentals from Latin America any more on 6, 9, 11, 13 MHz bands which might be capable of harmonicizing if they still existed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) more ham DX below
** EGYPT. 9899.609v, March 5 at 2114, S7-S8 of dead air from R. Cairo into UTwente, 2115 can`t hear any timesignal, but then traces of distorted modulation. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** HAWAII. 28393.3 USB, March 6 at 0006, KH6LC making quick contest contacts with a kW, S9 signal so wondering if this KH6 be really on the Mainland? No. Told one contact he was off frequency, but what about him? and waited for a `lid` to finish tuning up:
KH6LC Hawaii flag Hawaii
LLOYD J CABRAL, HCR 3 BOX 11046, KEAAU, HI 96749 USA

IIRC, Keaau was BIHI QTH of Dr. Richard E Wood. See also my previous report for a bunch of ham logs which were not filed under individual countries: BELIZE, BRAZIL, CAYMAN BRAC, CHILE, COLOMBIA, COSTA RICA, PANAMA, URUGUAY. And BRAZIL in this report (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** INTERNATIONAL VACUUM. CNN, via Suddenlink digital cable ch 50 in Enid, March 5 at 2053 UT suddenly breaks up video and audio. Could be anything, but suspect it`s a solar transit outage. I quickly scan other channels above and below and don`t find any others affected. In 2 or 3 minutes back to CNN, it`s recovered. See: https://myvalunet.com/special-time-year-solar-interruptions/ Most systems find it too inconvenient to compensate with backup alternative feeds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 11840, Sunday March 6 at 1807, urgent tones of anti-Christ pirate Station YHWH, reactivated after months` absence, S7-S8 into VE6JY remote Alberta, -10 Hz carrier offset. Tnx to tip from Rick Barton, AZ in the WOR iogroup. Last previous report of it on 11840 was also by Rick, Saturday November 20, 2011 until 1811* Maybe back too on night frequency 7470 or 7475? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U K. [bdxc-news] Still no BBC Russian --- Could someone with BBCWS
connexions enquire why the registered new Russian broadcast as of March 3, 1800-1830 on 9770 via Woofferton, has still failed to appear; if it is ever starting when and where? The war is on! There was about one second of a weak carrier cutting on and off at 1759 today, listening via UTwente. Nor anything at remotes in Russia. 73, (Glenn Hauser [sent at 1807 UT, not posted until 1854 following moderation delay], also immediately via WOR iog)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2128 monitoring: confirmed Saturday March 5 from 2031.7 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, Wentzville MO, VG into nearby Warrenton SDR.
Missed checking 0030 UT Sun March 6 on WRMI 7730; anyone hear it?
Confirmed UT Sunday March 6 at 0438 about 7 minutes into so started circa 0431 on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S9+15 into Knoxville with storm crashes; S9+10 into nearby MO SDR with heavier crashes closer to the storms.
As usual, zzz missed checking Sunday March 6 at 1330 on WMRI Europe via Channel 292, Germany, 9670; did anyone hear it? Next:

** U S A. (5085), UT Sun Mar 6 at 0120 tune-in, WTWW-2 webcast for `TOUTA`. Once you hear this pristine $tereo webcast you won`t want to put up with the lousy monaudio on 5085. Starting to wrap up at 0149 with last piece but Ted can`t wait to get back to rock, overriding it after a few notes. Probably started early before 0100.
Meanwhile, `Encore` on WRMI is mostly simulmissed this time, and I see that the latest Playlist anyway has not yet been loaded to https://www.tumbril.co.uk/playlists I do hear the last dekaminute on 5850 via Knoxville, while Missouri is buried in storm noise, also audible at KXV. Only other feasible chance on WRMI will be UT Mon 0300 on 5950 --- exactly same time as début of WBCQ Concert Hall on 4790 Radio Angela. With so little classical on SW, a shame has to be at same time as Encore, but UB says it`s the best logistical time for him. And both will be shifting one UT hour earlier next week from March 14, so imposition of wacky DST won`t help (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. (104.9), UT Sun March 6 at 0442, WCLV Cleveland OH webcast during `Quiet Hour` announces the date for QSY and power/coverage increase to 90.3 MHz: March 28. Also during previous 03-04 UT hour, `Weekend Radio` was a sesquidecade-old repeat from 2007y as revealed by a `current` news reference; when Robert ``Sagebrush Bob`` Conrad sounded and was much younger; no explanation. Hope he is not ailing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 27300 USB, March 6 at 0012, freebander I guess rather than legal CBer, a mite with a distinct Oz accent, seems to ID as ``World Radio 304`` in contact with ``World Radio 918``. So where`s the World Radio callbook? ``It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search`` --- surely nothing to do with Tulsa or West Virginia. Could it really be from Oztralia? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
HAM DX CONTEST on 21 & 28 MHz:
