Glenn Hauser logs April 19, 2022

** ARGENTINA. 28477 USB, April 19 at 2126, 10m seems dead but I scan anyway and find a couple LUs, this one LU2MCX, calling for ``up 5`` and another contact on 28482 USB with WB6D.

28470 USB, April 19 at 2129, LU9ES in Bs As contacting N5ZU, and more quick QSOs. I may look up more about these guys later (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 11825, April 19 at 1525, Burmese song S7/S9, the Myanmar service of RBA at 1500-1530. Today the signal is about equal to 11620, VOMKorea to Maldives from secret site; not that that prove anything, elsewhen much weaker than that (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CHAD [non]. 12050, April 19 at 0620, S9/S7 with heavy flutter, French and music: R. Ndarason Internationale via Woofferton UK at 0600-0700; also despite WEWN at 1900-2100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, April 19 at 2135 RHC with speech in stilted Spanish, this frequency on later than scheduled and unfound anywhere else on 15, 13, 11, 9 MHz bands except weaker // 9535. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, April 19 at 2148, S9+25 into UTwente extremely distorted but recognizable English from R. Cairo. Earlier in hour direct, nothing but a JBA carrier. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, oK, WOR)

** ETHIOPIA [non]. 17870, April 19 at 1520 JBA S5/S7 talk, the OSOB as Spain won`t be on 17855 for a few hours on a weekday. EiBi shows Dimtse Woyane in TIG via FRANCE at 1500-1600, and puts a b after the frequency: 17870b -- significant or a typo? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KUWAIT. 12130, April 19 at 0623, JBA S5/S7 talk vs CODAR. HFCC shows USAGM in Urdu at 0400-1300; Aoki says Mashaal Radio, in Pashto. EiBi says PS to Pakistan. That`s the one for Pashto speakers in Pak and along the border in Afghanistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MALDIVES [non]. 11620, April 19 at 1526, English discussion of NIV Bible version, S7/S9 direct; 1528 music not `Blessed Assurance`, closing VOMKorea Maldives service at 1529, just in time to get off before VATICAN starts Arabicking at *1530, only S3/S5 direct (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 19 at 2200, no signal from VOT English into UTwente, just timesignal and Chinese. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Some hum at 2224, maybe it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U K. 12095, April 19 at 0621, French with similar fluttery signal to 12050 Ndarason, see CHAD [non]. This also via Woofferton, but BBC itself at 0600-0630. But HFCC shows quite different powers, azimuths, antenna types (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12050, April 19 at 2137 YL Spanish preacher vs big hum S9/S7, WEWN out of order (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 11835, April 19 at 0624, RV music going from a fast pop song to a slower one, S5/S8 on 3 x 3945 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7474.5 USB, April 19 at 0630, weak 2-way in Spanish, not intruder? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
