** BRAZIL. 15189.92, June 6 at 0100, enthusiastic Brazilian, game? From R. Inconfidência, the best I could estimate it on the DX-398, as others have also found it on the low side of 15190 lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EGYPT. 9965, June 6 at 0058, R. Cairo Arabic service, ME song, could be Umm, and modulation is good! Hard to believe. But:

9720, June 6 at 0058, open carrier, possibly just barely modulated, during alleged Spanish service, and weaker vs the noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. Following item had wrong frequency, 11835; I must have had PCJ on my mind; no one notified me before I noticed the next day, here corrected:

11860, June 4 at 1326 RHC has some CCI, talk, music, very weak underneath. Presumably Voice of Wilderness, one of the Bible Voice services, 250 kW, 45 degrees from Trincomalee, SRI LANKA, 1300-1400(Sundays -1430) in Korean per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6010, June 5 attempting to hear XEOI, R. Mil within its reactivated limited schedule which Julián Santiago Díez de Bonilla says is 22-03 UT (or maybe -04?):
at 2230, JBA carrier, 3+ hours before sunset here
at 2336, JBA but a little stronger; can compare to Cuba 6000 and 5990, on 5-kHz DX-398 steps with BFO, and the 6010 is definitely but slightly on the hi side (despite all their faults, Cubans are usually pretty good about frequency accuracy).
At 0036 June 6, now sounds like three carriers all on slightly different frequencies hetting each other, i.e. also Brasil, Colombia.
At 0053, pileup is worsening; some talk audible, but can`t tell whether it`s Spanish or Portuguese. Busy producing World of Radio, haven`t had a chance to monitor later, but doubt XEOI will gain any advantage over the CCI (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. Still seeking any info about the fate of KZUE 1460 La Tremenda, I try the local newspaper, El Reno Tribunehttp://www.ertribune.com/

Searched on obvious keywords: nothing; even the word radio turns up only once since May 31, and behind a sign-up wall.

As a penultimate resort, I sent this June 5 via the contact form on their website and also by direct email to kzue @ aol.com

``Anoto 1460 fuera del aire desde el tornado en su área. No encuentro nada en las fuentes noticiosas sobre el estado de su emisora. Por favor enterarme. ¿Hubo daños a la antena o más?? Espero que no y que vuelva al aire tan pronto como posible. Buena suerte, Glenn Hauser, Enid``

As an ultimate resort if no answer I may axually have to phone them.

Meanwhile, we can read About Us at http://www.latremendaok.com/es/band/
and also try to escuchar, but only set off a few notes and no streaming.

Wouldn`t you know it: a few minutes after despatching my inquiry, I tune 1460 again at 2231 UT June 5, to find KZUE is finally back on the air! With federal PSA, norteña music.

Checked again at 2336, still good clear signal, amid unaccented English standard FCC-required announcement about pending license renewal, except that was in February 2013, and the deadline for comments is (was!) May 1, 2013; back to music.

Scenario: KZUE had been in touch with FCC about being off the air for a pentaday, and then realized they had neglected to go thru the required procedure at license-renewal time! Or maybe the absence had nothing to do with the tornado, but mixup with the FCC, off until STA`d?

At 0036 UT June 6, a bihour before sunset but skywave is in, English station with silly ballgame way atop KZUE Spanish; Red Sox mentioned, and can`t null it, so very likely approx. same direxion KCLE Cleburne (Metroplex) TX which is frequently heard but not during full daytime.

At 0430 UT I received this nice reply from KZUE`s owner:

``Le agradezco su preocupación; sí, pegó el tornado en la estación en la parte de enfrente y hubo daños mínimos y no en la antena, pero ya gracias a Dios ya estamos al aire; lo más importante que no hubo pérdidas humanas. Bendiciones, Nancy Galvan`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 6 at 0055, while waiting for R. Chaski to cut off, I fiddle the clix on the DX-398 fine tuning with BFO to estimate the frequency offset, since Chuck Bolland reported it June 3 on 5980.138, which seemed too far off. After comparing to WWV 5000.000, I put this at maybe 5980.04, no more than that; it`s definitely slightly on the hi side compared to Cuba 5990. Cuts off at 0101:52.5*, which is 5.5 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5050, June 6 at 0059, WWRB is again on here and not on 3195 (nor anything on 3215, but 3185 is poorly audible with BS), so we still anticipate WORLD OF RADIO to be on 5050 from this UT Friday at 0329v (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1672: completed at 0535 UT Thursday June 6 so the 0330 airing on WRMI had to repeat 1672 this week.

First SW airing will be Thursday 2100.5 on WTWW-1 9479; then 0329v UT Friday on WWRB, presumably 5050 ex-3195; UT Saturday 0130v on Area 51 via WBCQ 5110v-CUSB; Saturday 0630 & 1430 on HLR 7265-CUSB; Saturday 1500 & 1730 on WRMI 9955; Saturday 2329v on WTWW-2 9930; UT Sunday 0400.5 on WTWW-1 5830; Sunday 2329v on WTWW-2 9930. Also any day any time between 18 and 24 on 9930; 00-01 on 5085 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs June 5, 2013

** BANGLADESH. 15505, June 5 at 1358 BB is already on with hum and tone, flutter; 1358:35 starts hum and IS; timesignal ends at 1359:52 and opening Urdu, very poor (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. Monitoring channel 2 analog for long hours the last few days with little to show for it during a sporadic-E lull. But with antenna parked northward, UT June 5 at 0014 for two or three seconds I see NEWSHOUR, and then GLOBAL Winnipeg, which is all I need to ID once again CKND-TV-2 Minnedosa MB, thus confirming it`s still on air in analog. Could it have been meteor scatter? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. No Firedrake, but CNR1 jamming, June 5 before 1300:
None found in 12s, 13s, 14s, 15s at 1245 [except 15800 later below]
16360, poor at 1252
17450, poor at 1252
These two have similar signals to 17490 CRI Kashgar; see also below

15800, good at 1259-1300, but not there a few minutes earlier; modulation stops after 5+1 timesignal, carrier off at 1300.4*

June 5 before 1400:
13530, fair at 1354 vs CODAR; none in the 12s
13970, poor at 1353
14700, poor at 1353
15800, good at 1347 but weaker than -1300* above
15970, very poor at 1347
16100, poor at 1352
16920, fair at 1352
17170, fair at 1352; none in the 18s
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6125, June 5 at 0516, RHC English with Arnie Coro just barely modulated; OK on 6165, 6060 with Brazilian het, 6010, and also JBA on leapfrog 6270 from 6060 over 6165 another 105 kHz higher.

Ian Baxter, SWsites yg, points to a 3-minute video from CCTV showing the Bauta transmitter site, TV cooperation with the comrades in China: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWcED5TL5uY

It all looks very modern, belying the crud that comes out of RHC frequencies. At seconds :24-:28 a map labeled ``División Centro Internacional No. 1`` displays the antenna setup, which may not be top-secret, but not to be found in boycotted HFCC; I add the city-designations RHC publishes without azimuths:

A1-A2     10 [New York]
A3-A4    130 [Rio]
A5-A6    160 [BA]
A7-A8    310 [San Francisco]
A9-A10   340 [Chicago]
A11-A12  non-direxional circle
A13      non-direxional smaller circle

6.7-7.8 MHz approx., June 5 at 0519, RHC-like buzz cuts off periodically for about a second. Something new here, altho could be local. Suspect out of jammers near the middle on 7405.

15200-15260, June 5 at 1302, RHC frying noise from defective 15230 out to here, peaks varying but at 1302 around 15220 & 15240 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 17490 & 17630, June 5 at 1254, CRI English with 17630 stronger and leading by about 2 seconds: Aoki shows 17630 is Urumqi, 17490 Kashgar. Also in well as usual: CRI Chinese on 17650, and CRI French on 17560, both Kashgar (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** JAPAN [non]. 12015, June 5 at 0423, JBA signal maybe in Spanish. South Americans have been complaining of little to no reception of NHK relay via ASCENSION at 0400-0430; me, too! I was thinking this was also on 6195 via WHRI, but not any more. 5910 via France should be audible as it collides with Alcaraván Radio, Colombia (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 15575, June 5 at 1350, traditional Korean singing to 1359, as I wish again I had tuned in earlier for this Wednesday show from KBSWR. Usual good signal now, and open carrier on way early by 1235 or so before 1300 English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6010+, June 5 at 0055, het pileup, must be at least three weak signals, the strongest slightly on the hi side, i.e. Brasil, Colombia, and reactivated XEOI. Earlier I told Julián Santiago that I was not hearing XEOI in the 11-12 UT period when it should be audible since reactivation June 2, and he replied June 4:

``Hi Glenn: it is going to be on the air from 17:00 to 22:00 hours -Central time - 2200 to 0300 UT. 73, Julián``. So they`ve picked times when they will confront all this QRM, second only to 05-07 UT when blocked by Cuba. Need to seek Mil anyway at earlier, later times during this block (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 1120, June 5 at 0108 UT, in KMOX null, weak signal with Spanish preaching. SAH of about 4.5 Hz, and DF fits for KEOR Catoosa/Sperry/Tulsa, R. Victoria, which until now has been nothing but praise music in Spanish on its very irregular schedule.

Now we must beware of another new Spanish station on 1120, KTXW in Manor (Austin) TX which has just started testing, ``nostalgic wall-to-wall Spanish language ballads format`` as `Exitos 11-20`` with 5000/155 watts. Tnx to Artie Bigley for tip of this thread at http://radiodiscussions.com/smf/index.php?topic=235285.msg2121776
KTXW is about 90 degrees away from KEOR from my angle, so besides format difference, not easily confundible here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1460, June 5 at 1404 UT, another check whether KZUE El Reno is still off the air following the May 31 EF5 tornado: I am getting a JBA carrier looping due N/S, which fits for KZUE right down US 81, but stepping out in the yard away from noise sources, no audio but also a SAH from a second very weak signal. Either KZUE is back on at very reduced power, or it`s two other stations almost a bihour after sunrise, protracted skywave, such as KCLE or one of three other Texans; KKOY KS, KHOJ MO, KXPN NE or KZNT CO. Other weak OKC area stations at normal levels – 1560, 1490, 1340, etc. 1490 also has a SAH indicating residual skywave.

As of June 4, there`s nothing new in the Correspondence Folder for KZUE at FCC AM Query, as they will need to file for an STA to stay off the air or at reduced power. The Topo maphttp://msrmaps.com/image.aspx?t=2&Lon=-97.900000&Lat=35.508333&w=2&ref=G|-97.900000,35.508333
says site is 5 km SE of El Reno, i.e. just north of I-40 whence its tower (if still up) should be easily visible. Looks like it`s close to N/S Radio Road intersexion with E/W Historic US 66 which is // I-40. I don`t think there is an exit to Radio Road from I-40, but there is a turnoff from state highway 3 to the north, which I am certainly going to take at next opportunity if passable (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 5 at 0057, JBA carrier from R. Chaski, until cut off at 0101:47*, 5.5 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15016-USB, June 5 until 1303* tail of a crypto message with USAF reverb, ``do not answer``, ``authentication T-C``, ``this is McClellan, out``, i.e. the AFB near Sacramento CA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5050, UT Wednesday June 5 at 0058, WWRB is on with preaching, and not on 3195 or 3215. 3185 is not on either with BS, nor is 9370; maybe tried just as it was in variably-timed QSY procedure. At 0100, closing show on 5050 with phone 304-679-3615, ``good night, God bless, thank you for listening.`` (That number traces to Welbilt Homes, Parkersburg WV; repeated, I`m sure I copied it correctly.)

Dead air, hum level surges to forefront, then phone rings at least 4 times, each temporarily suppressing the hum. After Chaski-check, I`m back here on 5050 at 0103: now talk about the jet stream being off-track in a W pattern over N America, with ominous music. Think I`ve heard this before, `Planet X`? (And how come we never hear about jet stream patterns over other continents??) 3185 is on now with BS, very poor in storm noise level. Still no 3195, and 3215 is now WWCR.

The never-dated `Global One` program schedule now matching 5050 athttp://www.wwrb.org/schedule/global_1/combined.pdf
never specifying time zone but it`s EST/EDT, shows on the air only at 00-04 UT, and on UT Wednesdays at 0100 going from `Brother Ben` to `Truth House`.

So Dave has apparently taken my advice and replaced 3195 with 5050 for the summer evening broadcasts, hopefully including WORLD OF RADIO UT Fridays at 0329v!

BTW, Aoki listings are confused: showing 3215 as WWRB Overcomer Ministry, which is *never* on this frequency. 3195 is missing, just deleted or was it ever included? 5050 is also mislabeled TOM at 22-11 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, UT Wednesday June 5 at 0103 check, WTWW-3 Bible Worldwide service is now in Arabic as the language schedule continues to be jumbled around (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5945, June 5 at 0054, WYFR Spanish is gone, as all Spanish and Portuguese broadcasts were canceled as of June 1. 5945 had been on at 0000-0145, due south. 6115 is still on in English, VG signal northward. Now more cuts have been notified June 4 from Okeechobee:

``Please note the following changes to the WYFR A-2013 schedule, effective 01 July 2013: Delete
 kHz  Time (UT) Zone        Az    Lang
 9690 2245-2400 10S, 11SW   222   RTI
11565 0100-0200 12, 13, 15  140   RTI
15440 2145-0100 10          285   RTI
Sincerely, Brenda Constantino WYFR``

There goes our Taiwan English broadcast 22-23 on 15440, leaving only the 0300-0400 on 6115 – for now. But there`s still almost a month to decide on further cuts (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs June 4, 2013

** AUSTRALIA. 6132-6133 & 6167-6168, June 4 at 1144, squishy spurblobs are back from the 6150 R. Australia transmitter, very distorted audio matching 9580, while 6150 itself sounds OK atop Cuba. First heard May 28 but not in the meantime, checked some days.

So the Shepparton-1 transmitter, which is an SW100A, has problems. It`s the same one used later in the days in order, on 5995, 9710, 11650, 15240, mostly in English, so look out for similar plus/minus 17-18 kHz spurs around those frequencies (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BANGLADESH. 15505, June 4 at 1359, BB IS plays past 1400, no timesignal, but opening Urdu at 1400:08; very poor (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake [non], only CNR1 jamming, June 4 before 1200:
13920, poor with het at 1159; none in the 12s, 14s

Before 1300 June 4:
none in the 12s, 13s, 14s at 1251
15970, good at 1253
16100, fair at 1253
16160, fair at 1253
17170, very poor at 1254
17450, fair at 1254; none in the 18s

Before 1330 June 4:
16160, good at 1319; none in the 17s
16110, suspicious open carrier at 1320 before 16100 comes on but 16110 remains on too
16100, fair at *1320
15970, fair at 1323
14980, fair-good at 1323
14870, very poor at 1323
14700, fair-good at 1323
13830, poor at 1324
12870, fair at 1324
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA [and non]. 12120, June 4 at 0523, still no RHC on mistuned harmonic of 6060, but the Spy Lady is spouting Spanish numbers alternating with digital bleeps, and also mixing with RTTY which I assume is from somewhere else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** FRANCE [non]. 9955, June 4 at 0527, RFI English is back on SW! Thanks to Brother Scare whose contract with WRMI expired May 31 (plus a couple bonus days), forcing WRMI to replace him with many hours of WRN relays again, as detailed in my last report. No jamming either now, and fair-good signal, which is much better than usual. Strange propagation tonight with little direct from Europe on 31m, making this along with 9330 WBCQ and 9885 VOA French via Botswana (switches to Greenville at 06) the SSOBs.

Report on banking rules; 0530 ID as `Paris Live` at 7:30 am so it must really be live; continues with news headlines from Africa. RFI via WRN via WRMI is now daily at 05-06 & 09-10 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also USA: WRMI for more

** INDIA. 15050, June 4 at 1205-1217.5* AIR Delhi with nice music in Tamil service, until cut off late and in mid-announcement; then tuned to 15040 and there`s the Burmese service at about same poor level.

9690, June 4 at 1329, sufficiently fair with plucked instrument music, presumed Tibetan announcement, more such music, never any AIR IS, but 1330 `Namaskar` and opening GOS in English with frequencies, 1330.5 news. // 13710 is very poor and // 11620 is a JBA carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH [non]. 11835, June 4 at 1326 RHC has some CCI, talk, music, very weak underneath. Presumably Voice of Wilderness, one of the Bible Voice services, 250 kW, 45 degrees from Trincomalee, SRI LANKA, 1300-1400(Sundays -1430) in Korean per Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MALAYSIA. 9835, June 4 at 1152, song in English, ``you`re my brother --- sister --- family``; segué to another at 1153 seemed Malay but then heard ``Be in love``, from Sarawak FM. BTW, I see that India is also on 9835 at 1330-1740; should be quite a collision (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 6010, June 4 at 1146, can`t hear XEOI but there is a JBA carrier, maybe it or Asia. Has it stayed on air since return June 2 and has anyone heard it anywhen? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA [and non]. 800, June 4 at 1120 UT after sunrise, KQCV OKC is now missing, leaving a remnant of Mexican music likely XEROK plus a SAH. Still nothing at 1137, 1219, 1245 chex but on at 1405 with gospel huxter. May not have anything to do with tornado aftermath.

1460, KZUE El Reno, remains silent by 1405 UT June 4, surely tornado-caused but still unknown exactly what happened to La Tremenda (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PAKISTAN [non]. 15560, June 4 at 0520, spirited discussion in SW Asian language, fair signal, better than 15400 Dabanga/Madagascar, for example. Hadn`t noticed this before. HFCC shows it`s IBB in Urdu, 250 kW, 90 degrees from Nauen, GERMANY at 0400-0600 since 7 May.

But Aoki shows it`s Mashaal Radio in Pashto, otherwise same. RFE/RL info about this operation: ``Radio Mashaal was launched in January 2010 in order to counter a growing number of Islamic extremist radio stations in Pakistan's Northwest Frontier Province (now Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Province) and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas along the border with Afghanistan. Languages: Pashto. Coverage: 9 hours daily``. Five of which:

DX Re Mix News, Bulgaria shows the R. Mashaal schedule via MBR is now:
0400-0600 on 15560 NAU 250 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Pashto
0600-0900 on 15360 NAU 250 kW / 090 deg to WeAs Pashto
And BTW, the other site in Germany, Wertachtal, is now closed down, completely off. RIP (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 3 at 0058 hymx, 0100 different music, usual sounder and announcement to R. Chaski cutoff at 0101:41.5*, which is 5 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, WRMI, has replaced Brother Scare with 93 hours per week of WRN relays. Consult the current WRN North America schedule grid at the times previously given. It`s not easy to find without a direct link:http://www.wrn.org/listeners/assets/PDFs/WRN_ENGLISH_NORTH_AMERICA_A13.pdf

So the WRMI times now include, in many cases more than once per day:
Poland, Prague, Israel, Swissinfo, RFI, Channel Africa, Asia Calling, KBS, Sweden, RNZI, Vatican, Slovakia, Guangdong, Banns (Denmark), Media Network Plus, and of course WORLD OF RADIO at 1730 Saturdays.

However, can`t hear anything on 9955 at 1520 June 4, so suspect they are again turning off the transmitter Mon-Fri 14-23 during the WRN block (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also FRANCE [non]

** U S A. 12105, Tuesday June 4 at 1325 check, WTWW-3 is back in Russian, the original language at this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1350, June 4 at 1125 UT, Osgood File; he`s as bad as Paul Harvey was, working commercials into the narrative. So it`s a CBS station, fades out before he`s finished. Most likely KMAN Manhattan KS or maybe KRNT Des Moines IA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Tribute to Ekala

Adventist World Radio

Special One Day QSL Card

     As was announced a few weeks ago, a special one day QSL card will be offered for reception reports of the broadcast of the special edition of the AWR DX program, "Wavescan" that honors the closure of the Ekala Shortwave Station in Sri Lanka.  The Seventh-day Adventist denomination made its first broadcast from the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation back in 1951, on the very first day of what was the new SLBC Commercial Service on shortwave.  Over the years, these initial radio broadcasts blossomed into Adventist World in Asia, AWR-Asia, and the programming of Adventist World Radio is still on the air shortwave from the Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation, though these days from the ex-Deutsche Welle Relay Station located near Trincomalee on the east coast of the island of Sri Lanka.  

     Without a specific announcement, SLBC closed their historic Ekala station on the last day of May and they transferred their international programming to the station at Trincomalee.  To honor the long and illustrious history of the Ekala Shortwave Station, the AWR DX program "Wavescan" is airing a special edition under the old title, "Radio Monitors International" and this will be broadcast beginning next Sunday, June 9, and during the following days next week.  These days, "Wavescan" is researched and written in Indianapolis by the AWR DX Editor, Dr. Adrian Peterson, and it is produced in the studios of shortwave station WRMI by Jeff White, who is noted also for his key roles with NASB, the National Association of Shortwave Broadcasters in the United States.  The AWR international DX program "Wavescan" is on the air from stations in the AWR network, and also from WRMI, WWCR & WINB in the United States, and from Spaceline in Bulgaria.  

     The old Ekala Radio Station is of such significance in the long history of international radio broadcasting that the well known International Radio Monitor in Colombo Sri Lanka, Victor Goonetilleke, is campaigning widely to have the site recognized as an International Heritage Site.

     This once-in-a-lifetime special QSL card will feature a reproduction of two QSL cards that were in use from AWR in Poona-Pune nearly forty years ago.  All reception reports of this special program will be verified with this special event QSL card, and return postage and an address label will be appreciated.  The only address is:-

Glenn Hauser logs June 3, 2013

** AUSTRALIA. 15340, June 3 at 1226-1230, HCJB good with usual prélude to S Asian service, medley of upbeat tunes interrupted by English IDs. Here and there the music sounds vaguely familiar; does anyone recognize any hymns for certain, or even an Oz folksong amid? Or try that app that IDs music. Or maybe an insider can explain derivation of what passes for an interval signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** BANGLADESH. 15505, June 3 at 1532, S Asian music, poor with flutter, i.e. Bangladesh Betar Hindi service at 1515-1545. This may well be more reliable than the 1400 Urdu broadcast I usually check. I wonder if they even attempt a timesignal at *1515 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. Firedrake [and non], June 3 before 1300:
13795, no FD audible today unlike yesterday, just JBA talk, RFA Tibetan via Kuwait if not CNR1 jam. All the rest are CNR1:

13920, poor at 1248; none in the 12s
14700, fair-good at 1254; none in the 15s unless loband
16100, very poor at 1255
16160, poor at 1255; none in the 17s

Before 1600, a time I seldom check:
15430, strong CCCCCCI at 1532, with typical CNR1 overblown hyper announcer and sounders, atop but quite a signal too from the victim, per Aoki: RFA Chinese via SAIPAN, this hour only

13790, similar clash to 15430 at 1535, but less from the victim, RFA Chinese via TINIAN, this hour only and only on M/W/F; today: Monday

13675, CNR1 jam is good at 1535, while target is JBA: RFA Chinese via TAJIKISTAN, this hour only

Also had weaker Chinese at 1535 on 13680 and 13755, but Aoki shows those as CRI via Kashgar, EAST TURKISTAN (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 6010, June 3 at 1207, the only signal audible here is very weak English, no doubt CRI as scheduled this hour only, 150 kW, 95 degrees from Beijing site.

Julián Santiago Díez de Bonilla, DF, had notified us June 2 at 1359 UT: ``Nuevamente se encuentra al aire y con buena señal XEOI Radio Mil onda corta en los 6010 kHz con la programación de XEOY Radio Mil onda media 1000 kHz`` --- maybe it`s too late already today, almost an hour after Enid sunrise; but México DF sunrise was 1158 UT, close to earliest of the year, so if really on the air, the signal should still be propagating at least westward if not northward. DF SR will laten only 5 minutes in a month, 15 minutes in a bimonth, per gaisma.com. As for CCI potential, Aoki also shows a ND 20 kW R. Rossii transmitter in Blagoveshchensk/Yakutsk on the air from 1700 until 1300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1460, KZUE El Reno, La Tremenda, is still AWOL following May 31 tornado along Radio Road, when checked June 3 at 1542 UT. Does anyone have any info about its status? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SUDAN [non]. 15725, June 3 at 1530, good signal in Arabish, mentions Libya, Sudan, headlines? Need only listen for a minute until they mention Dabanga. One of the best signals on 19m, would suspect it`s via Madagascar beamed back USward, but no, per Aoki it`s R. Dabanga via VATICAN, 1529-1627, paired with R. Tamazuj at 1457-1529, both 250 kW, 139 degrees from SMG. Directly off the back would be 319 degrees, close enough, as their antennas are renowned for off-beam coverage, even sidewise, about which I am not complaining; but the clients & targets might since this means less signal there than they are due (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 13570, June 3 at 1537, WINB is already on with gospel huxter in English. Their website program schedule is dated May 5, almost a bimionth after DST began, yet the ET/UT conversions are wrong, 5 hours apart instead of 4, claiming weekday broadcasts start at 11:30A ET/1630 UT, instead of 1530, as local time obviously rules. So ALL the UTs in the entire schedule are apparently wrong! Our oldest private SW station has never been able to get its act together (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, Monday June 3 at 1537 UT check, WTWW-3 is in Portuguese about peixes; now one never knows what Bible language will be on at what hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 11715, June 3 at 1539, KJES is extremely strong during Spanish singing. Also wide: on the DX-398 also audible on 11710 & 11720 unless I switch to narrower bandwidth. The current A-13 FCC schedulehttp://transition.fcc.gov/ib/sand/neg/hf_web/A13FCC01.TXT
(there is still no version 2 as FCC02), shows the 50 kW transmitter aimed 150 degrees at 1500-1600, but hard to believe it`s not really aimed 70 degrees right at us, as scheduled at 1300-1400 (with 350 in between). Their rotatable log periodic has been known to get stuck in the past. However, sporadic E may be boosting this even tho MUF is not up to VHF (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9955, Monday June 3 at 1540, I hope to hear WORLD OF RADIO again on WRMI, a time in effect until the Brother Scare business in February, but only wall-of-noise jamming. However, a new program schedule dated June 3 has just been put up here,https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AivhtkIEGb3_dENObnZrMkt1YmtUWGxkbkd3TGNzOXc&hl=en#gid=0
or one click from http://www.wrmi.net/pb/wp_d12a1732/wp_d12a1732.html
or even more conveniently two clix fromhttp://www.wrmi.net

which shows all the BS deleted, and more or less replaced by World Radio Network, now spanning all these hours:
0500 (Sat, Sun 0300)-1000
1400-2300 M-F
1500-1900 Sun
1600-2100 Sat

That means WORLD OF RADIO via WRN should again be on 9955, Saturdays at 1730. But no other previous WOR times have been resumed, still only: Thu 0330, Sat 1500, Tue 1100. Nor any other DX programs during the above blox. Also, there is no indication whether it`s again webcast-only, SW turned off, weekdays at 14-23 as had been the case pre-BS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** VATICAN [non]. 15110, June 3 at 1534, poor signal with S Asian accent in English, mentioning Yahweh. Aoki shows VR via USG`s IBB Tinang, PHILIPPINES (violating Separation of Church and [American] State), 250 kW at 280 degrees, spanning 1415 to 1558 depending on day of week (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) See also SUDAN [non]

UNIDENTIFIED. 14541.5-SSB, June 3 at 1250, 2-way in colloquial Spanish, stronger one with engine noise, both of them whistling at times. Heard no mentions of puta-madres, but pescaditos, so presumably fishing poachers (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs June 2-3, 2013

** MEXICO. 6010, June 3 at 0059, multiple hets in keeping with news from Julián Santiago that XEOI Radio Mil had reactivated the morning of June 2; yet to rehear it for sure, but best window should be around 1100 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Sporadic E TV DX June 2 continued from last report, UT:

1650 on 2, heavy CCI in Spanish, including an interview; unknown bug in UR

1654 on 2, Televisa promo in CCI, for show about Pablo Escobar

1655 on 3, diabetes ad or infomercial

1655 on 5, chat show, with zero offset CCI, then into exercising? Or rather dancing; Azteca 13 in UR. Both 3 and 5 are from WSW, so Mexicali, 5 being XHAQ. Yes:

1658 on 3, Mexicali 686- phone on infomercial for Diabete Stevia, i.e. XHBC

1659 on 3 and 5, peaking snow-free

1700 on 3, infomercial still going

1724 on 3, now there is same-offset CCI here on XHBC, like we used to get, probably XHTJB Tijuana still analog

1725, 3 and 5 are fading out, now CCI on 2

1748 on 3, horse-dancing competition, in a corrida past 1804; was Mrs. Mitt there? XHBC again or not?

1758 on 2, CCI is peaking SSW now, and at 1804

1852 on 2, atop the CCI with Azteca-13 bug UR. There is another longer bug with text in upper left, varicolored, unseems callsign ID, can`t make it out

1904 on 2, still Az-13 video, mixing with other audio

Think opening is fading, and I take a break anyhow, resuming:

2307 on 2, CCI most of the hour, nothing definite

UT June 3:
at 0158 brief fade in on 2, film with TELEACTIVA bug UR = XEFB Monterrey NL

TVDX Photos: three added from May 31 sporadic E opening: XEWO-2, XEZ-3, Azteca 13 on 4, via http://www.worldofradio.com/tvdxfoto.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. Bandscan on the outskirts of Enid, includes:

1460, KZUE El Reno, 500 watt daytimer, ``La Tremenda`` is still missing after the May 31 tornado, no signal at 1925 UT check June 2. See http://www.latremendaok.com/ which looks like it`s stagnant since 2007. Can`t get any recent hits on KZUE Tremenda at http://newsok.com in case there were any stories about why it`s not on. Has anyone but su servidor noticed?

1220, June 2 at 1956 UT, screaming gospel huxter, weak signal audible on caradio in the outskirts of Enid, so KTLV Midwest City is apparently still on the air, 250 watt daytimer

All the other OKC AM stations are nominal now (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1120, no signal from KEOR Catoosa/Tulsa, June 2 at 1953 check (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 3 at 0057, carrier from R. Chaski till cut off at 0101:36.5* which is 5.5 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 690, Sunday June 2 at 1951 past 2000 UT, open carrier/dead air from KGGF Coffeyville KS: not unusual for them, not just overnight

790, June 2 at 1953 UT, Royals BB, no doubt KXXX Colby KS, with a SAH which must be KFYO Lubbock, usual heavy ACI from both sides, KQCV 800 OKC and KSPI 780 Stillwater. Helped a little to travel a few miles NW of Enid near Carrier.

1610, June 2 at 1958 UT from Carrier area, big hum is better here as closer to Great Salt Plains State Park abandoned TIS.

BTW, no sign of 720 WGN from Chicago which I was getting about the same time a few days ago.

1620 with very weak music and talk at 1958 UT June 2, but suspect it may have been overload from local 1640 KOAG (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1671 monitoring: confirmed Sunday June 2 at 2329 on WTWW-2, 9930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, Sunday June 3 at 0057 check, WTWW-1 is now in French, still VG signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 6115, June 3 at 0104, a younger Harold Camping is talking about divorce; 0258 religious music, 0300 opening R. Taiwan International relay in English. 6115 is the LAST WYFR frequency left since Spanish and Portuguese were canceled, altho a few others remain only with other RTI relays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs June 1-2, 2013

** BANGLADESH. 15505, June 2 at 1357, BB very poor carrier with tone, quits at 1357.5 and soon replaced by IS; timesignal barely detectable ending at 1359:56 --- Getting close! But no doubt only by chance (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CHINA. 13795, June 2 at 1238, Firedrake is here again! Very poor with CCI from victim. Who would have guessed that the Firedrake would become an endangered species? All other ex-FD frequencies occupied by CNR1 jamming:

13820, poor at 1239 with CCI, also vs pulse jamming from Cuba against no Martí, but Greenville had just tuned up its carrier on same, and back off
13830, poor at 1239 in the clear
13920, very poor at 1239 mixing with presumed Oz wxfax
14700, very good at 1242
14980, very good at 1242, now with ``opera`` Sunday night CNR1 cultural programming, vocal music and traditional/orchestral music
15195, fair at 1242
15250, good at 1242 with hets also jamming
15970, very poor at 1248
16160, poor at 1248, seems echoey; none in the 17s, 18s, poor prop
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 12120, UT Sunday June 2 after 0500, RHC is gone again, back to fundamental 6060. There may be more to the 12120 appearance 24 hours earlier; Dave Hughes, Kansas City, points out: ``I don't know if there is any connection, but Cuban "intelligence" is on 12120 at 0500 UT with the number/digital mode station every Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday. This sounds like more of the same screwups between DGI & RHC``

Wolfgang Büschel was also hearing RHC on 12120 some hours before I encountered it: ``12120 undoubtedly RHC La Habana HARMONIC of fundamental 6060 kHz Spanish program. S=9+10dB surprisingly signal at 0420 UT June 1st. But 6060 kHz heard seemingly on S=3 tiny level only underneath?`` But when I was getting 12120 there was NO RHC on 6060 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** GERMANY [non]. 15275, new summer frequency for DW English via RWANDA is VG here: June 1 at 2057 report about whistling and the Netherlands Philharmonic Orchestra (maybe produced by RNW?) stops modulating at 2058 but open carrier stays on until 2058:20* --- what a waste, in usual refusal to coördinate programming with SW transmission.

15275 again in English at 0540 check, fair signal. DX Re Mix News had reported that from June 1, 15275 replaced 12045 (which used to be OK here too) at 0500-0630, and was added at 2000-2100, all 295 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 2 at 0056, R. Chaski carrier audible, bothered by squealing sounds which are different musical pitches emanating from 5990 CRI relay via Cuba. 0059 Chaski is talking, cut off at 0101:31* which is 5.5 seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 9955, June 2 at 0547 and 1221 chex, Brother Scare is still on WRMI, despite contract expiring May 31. How much longer? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** TAIWAN [non]. 11835, Sunday June 2 at 1258, very poor carrier with music, presumably CNR2 from Xianyang 594 site about to close.

At 1300 I can make out the PCJ Radio IS on new frequency via Trincomalee, SRI LANKA, but also very poor signal. Probably Andy Sennitt opening the hour, but unreadable; no better at 1335 recheck. No problem, anyway from inaudible 11840 India vs China scheduled until 1315. Propagation is very poor today from the transpolar area; maybe OK in target China? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1671 monitoring: confirmed on WTWW-2, 9930, Saturday June 1 starting at 2329:21, and off by 2358:30 in time for QSY announcement to 5085 and 9930 off immediately (5085 with a QSO show stayed on a bit past 0100 June 2). WOR also confirmed UT Sunday June 2 at 0400.5 on WTWW-1 5830. Next: Sunday 2329v on 9930; also could appear at any time, any day after 1800 on 9930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, WTWW-3 chex; beginning to look like the Bible languages are being randomly rotated: Sat June 1 at 2015: Russian; Sun June 2 at 1306: Arabic (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5050, June 2 at 0059 check, WWRB is off. Usually had been on this frequency at least on UT Sundays (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Glenn Hauser logs May 31-June 1, 2013

** CUBA. 6060, June 1 at 0613, I notice that RHC English is missing here, still on 6010, 6125 and 6165 and assume 6060 is merely off; but by the time my bandscan surpasses 12 MHz, at 0618, there it is strong on 12120, fighting usual resident RTTY! The transmitter has been mistuned to its second harmonic, as there is still not a trace of RHC on 6060, tho something weak not // is there at 0619, maybe Brasil.

Altho strong, RHC and many other signals (such as at 0617, WHRI 11635, WEWN 11520 but also lower bands) have some flutter, certainly unusual that far south, explained by this from WWV:

``Geophysical Alert Message
Solar-terrestrial indices for 31 May follow.
Solar flux 102 and estimated planetary A-index 9.
The estimated planetary K-index at 0600 UTC on 01 June was 6.
Space weather for the past 24 hours has been moderate.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G2 level occurred.
Radio blackouts reaching the R1 level occurred.
Space weather for the next 24 hours is predicted to be moderate.
Geomagnetic storms reaching the G2 level are likely.``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 9680, June 1 at 1203, RRI atop co-channel from China/Taiwan radio war, with low audible heterodyne --- could be about 40 Hz instead of 400 Hz, 9680.4 where Carlos Gonçalves, Portugal, recently reported it a couple hours earlier. I never hear a het that far off (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** ISRAEL. 15850, June 1 at 0108, very poor music, but has to be Galei Zahal, which I hadn`t heard in a long time; not audible on 6885 if on (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 710, Saturday June 1 at 1123 UT, Low German, very poor signal about to fade out, so XEDP, Ciudad Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 790, June 1 at 1123, M&W talk in Spanish remnant a few minutes after sunrise here, NE/SW, must be Chihuahua or La Paz, both listed well less than 1 kW night power but 5 kW day power (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. Turn on and tune in at 2119 UT May 31 finds big TV Es opening in progress; as usual the 6m Es maps don`t reflect this:

All times and dates in UT!

2119, chs A2, A3 and A4 all with net-5 toons. Now the italic 5 in a circle bug is in lower right instead of upper right and has been enlarged, just what we DXers need! At 2122 on two sets I notice that the audio on 2 and 3 is an echo apart, still toon.

2120, ch A4 with some CCI to net-5.

2124, take some pix of toon on A3 with net-5 bug

2133, MUF now up to A5, peaks SSW. 2138 it`s net-5 too with Spongebob dubbed.

2140, A2 with forotv bug in LR, teleactiva elsewhere on screen, or CCI? The latter means it`s XEFB-TV in Monterrey NL, which also carries Foro per http://tvdxtips.com/mexlogosch2.html

2141, A2 with TV KIDZ bug in LL. What net/station is this program on?

2148, A2 with +v bug in UR during documentary with animated map. +v has a red background. So it`s XEWO-TV Guadalajara, a.k.a. Más Visión, and that in fact is the lettering below the +v logo. There is some 20 kHz CCI, meaning XEWO is offset; Danny says it is (appropriately) plus

2154, A2 with MTY bug in UR during gameshow? Or court show. Danny says this is now XHCNL in Saltillo, Coahuila, relaying ch 34 in MonTerreY

2203, A4 with Azteca-13 bug in UR during novela, photoed. The yellow wedge segment stands out. Snow-free peaks. W9WI.com shows there are ten possibilities of which seven are 10-100 kW. During this opening I did not see a single call-letter ID supered. By now lighting QRM is bothering, as there are storms building just south of here.

2208, A4 with Azteca Noticias - probably net-13 but could be 7

2209, A2 with Gala TV swirl bug in LR, CCI.
W9WI.com shows the ONLY Televisa 9 on A2 is
Hermosillo, SO XHHMA-TV 30,000 Z H 29-04-29N 110-57-35W XLIC
but this is outside the PTA (probable target area), and is probably misleading, as one of the Televisa Local stations could be carrying net-9 at the moment, other nets at other times: Mérida, Aguascalientes, Tepic, Nuevo Laredo, Ciudad Obregón

2216 on A4, Azteca 13 bug in UR again, novela

2221 on A3, American dubbed movie from net-5 – now the LR bug has been moved even further into screen because movie is letterboxed; snow-free peaks. XHBQ Zacatecas was the usual suspect past years, but W9WI.com now shows it`s changed to Televisa net-2! Besides two low-powers, W9WI.com shows the only high-power 5 on 2 is:
Zamorano, QT XEZ-TV 50,000 + H XLIC S:Televisa 5
which had been on net-2

It`s logistically difficult for me to DX FM and TV from the same shack location, so I move to the porch with the DX-398 to see if MUF is getting into FM: all I get is:

2232 on 87.75 = Ch A6 audio, Spanish kid voices, probably toon, gone at 2235, back at 2237. No Spanish Es found in FM band proper, but I checked the tornado TV relays around OKC; see OKLAHOMA

2246 on A2, XEWO-TV is back with +v but in UR, CCI, one of them with chat show or court show

2314 on A3, net-5 back with movie, bug in LR. After that opening fades to weak CCI and out, fortunately, just as tornado axion is really heating up in OKC (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MICRONESIA. 4755.5, June 1 at 1157, JBA carrier from PMA The Cross (always neighbor to double slightly stronger carriers on 4750 from Indonesia/Bangladesh/China?). PMA cutoff today seems closer to 1159:01* than 1159:00 as timed last few days. Never enough signal now to hear the tones which precede it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. FM bandscan 0054-0100 UT June 1 during heavy tornado outbreak in OKC:

Relaying KFOR-27 (``4``): 90.1 KCSC-FM (takes a lot to pull them away from classical); 94.7, 96.1, 98.5-Enid xltr, 101.9, 102.7, also 1000 KTOK

Relaying KOCO-7 (``5``): 100.5, 105.7=KROU relaying KGOU public radio (audible due to local 105.5 translator off); 98.9, 98.1, 96.9

Relaying KWTV-39 (``9``): 91.7 KOSU, 92.5, 93.3, 103.5, 104.1, 107.7, also KOKC 1520.

On regular schedule: 95.1 gospel huxter, 99.7 oldies. Others:

105.5, with local translator off, something promoing CBS Sports Radio

106.7, KTUZ with own tornado coverage in Spanish, but which TV station are they watching?

1460, no Spanish heard, KZUE El Reno may be OFF!

1340, KGHM, can`t make out whether talk is tornado or sports

1140, KRMP seems OFF!

930, WKY relays KOCO briefly then translates it to Spanish

890, KTLR Spanish mass

800, KQCV is OFF!

640, KWPN relaying KOCO like 100.5, but interrupted by NWS warning from Norman (sorry, but often what the local TV stations are saying is more timely and urgent than official NWS overrides! Which are maddeningly inhuman, plodding and repetitive). Then dead air; due to NWS, or lost STL??

The OFF AM stations may just be due to widespread power outages, many lines down; however KZUE 1460 on Radio Road just west of El Reno is about where the first tornado spawned.

There is tropo TVDX from the north keeping me up late, so one further check before sleep:

640, at 0641 UT, KWPN is on now, ID with WWLS 98.1 FM (which stole its call)

After sunrise, what`s happening? Now it`s June, the shortest nights of the year, with OKC FCC SR/SS times for e.g. KQCV as 1115/0145 UT.

640, KWPN at 1124 with sportstalk

800, KQCV is still OFF at 1122, 1138, 1155 chex. Too late already for XEROK, but I wonder what else I might get on groundwave without KQCV? KDDD Dumas TX would be best bet from the Panhandle, but only 250 watts; two more low-powers in Arkansas and a 1 kW in eastern MO. Storm noise level from SE OK is still too high, especially on low-band blocking DX

890, KTLR at 1131 is open carrier; by next check 1138 on with unrelated talk, still on at 1155

1000, KTOK at 1138 with dog & flea infomercial

1140, KRMP at 1127 seems OFF; I am hearing Spanish music from E/W = Arkansas, and Spanish talk weak from N/S, probably XEMR NL. But at 1155 KRMP is on with local talk

1340, KGHM at 1130 better sex life infomercial, not sports; but 1136 local tornado damage talk

1490, KMFS Guthrie is OFF! But if it were on, would only be plugged into Jimmy Swaggart network

1520, KOKC at 1138, vitamin-D pusher infomercial after offensive anti-government promos for Savage Nation and Herman Cain

At 1307 UT I start another bandscan this time on the more sensitive parked car radio:

800, KQCV still off at 1307, no DX audible vs noise level

890, KTLR damage discussion in English, from a TV station?

930, WKY, Spanish conversation about casualties, back to music 1308

1000, KTOK, planning for crisis – not this, but aged parents infomercial

1140, KRMP now with soul music at 1309

1220, KTLV, cannot detect any signal, but inconclusive

1340, KGHM, sports talk at 1310

1460, KZUE El Reno still OFF at 1311, but two hours after sunrise residual skywave on hiband, something JBA in English, SAH from weaker

1490, KMFS still off but at least two weak skywaves, KTOP? and ?

1520, KOKC, medical infomercial

1560, KEBC Del City at 1312 with Stella Italian Restaurant in OKC ad, but will not stray from all-comedy format

Final check before finishing this report, 1546-1550 UT June 1:

800 is back on, shux with gospel huxter.

Also on: 640, 890, 930, 1000, 1140, 1340, 1490, 1520, 1560 with regular programming. 1560 repeats the Stella ad at 1548. 930 is in dead air, but resumes música at 1552.

That leaves only 1460 KZUE still missing.

OKC TV stations Saturday morning: before 1300 UT, KFOR is in kidvid, incredibly, while KWTV, KOCO and KOKH are assessing tornado damage; KFOR joins in after 1300, but all are done with it by 1400. Except KOKH-24 ``Fox 25`` is still/back with it at 1453, standing by for a press conference from Canadian County, joined by KOCO but not KWTV or KFOR, still in kidvid past 1500!

So far I have provided a lot more specific info as there is nothing new yet at OK radiodiscussions.com and some griping at okctalk.com

Enid suffered NO tornadoes or any storms in the May 31-June 1 outbreak; we were barely on the safe edge of the storm area which did cover the southeastern third of our county Garfield. Yet some of our stations are disrupted or missing the morning of June 1:

92.1, KAMG-LP is STILL open carrier/dead air, except for ``pops`` slightly more than once per second

95.7, KXLS ``Lahoma`` is VERY undermodulated at 1144 during Point of View with gospel huxter Marlin Maddux, includes music and dramatizations about belief, but also sound of tape fast/rewinding: not sure if bleedthru or part of SFX, then to gospel rock. At 1316 is OFF, leaving weak signal from something. Maybe what I was getting earlier was not really KXLS?

105.5, K288FX, ``North Enid`` mono carrier is on with full bars, but sounds like it`s off with just barely modulated and not fully quieted gospel music at 1150, then ``My Praise FM`` slogan, i.e. its primary KLVV 88.7 Ponca City which it is having trouble inputting. The 105.5 signal is much too broad, on the DX-398 making 105.1 KQSB seem like it`s off-frequency to low side. At 1318 on the caradio with no signal meter, sounds like 105.5 is off, but no doubt really on, with little input except a meteor burst relayed

107.1, KNID, ``North Enid``, prime station of Hiram Champlin, at 1153 and still at 1318 is OFF the air! (related to KXLS 95.7, but their AM stations on 1390 KCRC sports and 1640 KOAG ag are nominal).

The Enid absentees are back to normal strength and programming at 1548 UT on 95.7, 105.5, 107.1, but not 92.1. KXLS and KNID calls confirmed on RDS (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** PERU. 5980, June 1 at 0100, R. Chaski carrier is still JBA despite storm noise level, cut off at 0101:25.5* which is five seconds later than yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1671 monitoring: confirmed starting slightly before 0129 UT Saturday June 1 on Area 51 via WBCQ as monitored first on webcast, then on 5110v-CUSB but too much noise level here.

Next: Saturday 2329v on WTWW-2 9930; UT Sunday 0400.5 in WTWW-1 5830; Sunday 2329v on WTWW-2 9930. Also could appear at any earlier time after 1800 on 9930 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 12105, May 31 at 2015 check, WTWW-3 is in Spanish instead of French as on website schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. Jeff White recently reconfirmed that Brother Stair`s contract on WRMI (for 110 hours per week) would expire May 31, but he`s still on 9955, UT June 1 at 0615 with no jamming, 1202 vs heavy pulse jamming. Jeff also said that program changes would be made ``next week``. Keep an eye on the programming link two clix away from http://www.wrmi.net which for now is still dated April 26 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6925-USB, June 1 at 0108 some pirate is here with music, but far too much storm noise level to pursue (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
