Glenn Hauser logs September 9-10, 2019

** NIGERIA. 11769.903, Sept 9 at 2033, VON one of better 25mb signals at this time, S9-S7 but very undermodulated, can`t tell the language but presumably not English. Must also check here when 7254.9 be missing for the 0600 broadcast, as Ivo Ivanov found it on instead, ``Voice of Nigeria on wrong 11770v, instead of 7255v kHz, September 10 from 0600 Hausa, from 0700 Fulfulde and upcoming from 0800 English`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 930, Sept 10 at 0028 UT, WKY OKC in English! With the demise of ESPN-D[eportes], what to do with this legacy station? Sports talk in English! In fact, at 0047 plugs sibling station WWLS The Sports Animal (98.1) which is also on KWPN 640 Moore, but not // at the moment. At 0201 UT I find that 930 is // 640 but running 7 seconds behind it. And again at 0620 UT when both are on ESPN Radio (in English).

What a great variety Radio License Holding CBC, LLC are providing! BTW, these two stations are not part of any other AM cluster in OKC. according to FCC Licensee info. Oh, yeah?

At 1459 UT Sept 10, I monitor the ToH breaks on all three stations. 640 and 930 are not // but 930 is // 98.1, if not synched. At 1502 legal ID on 98.1 starts with WWLS, then a bunch of mostly AM affiliates all over OK, to which WKY has been added at the end; as part of Cumulus. And the same multi-station ID comes around 27 seconds later on 930. But FCC AM Query shows Cumulus is *not* the licensee of any AM station in OK. How about FM? Allegedly, ONLY ONE: 107.3 KOMS Poteau! What is going on here? Well, RLH CBC LLC must be a subsidiary of Cumulus, but why? Try to reach the former on Wikipedia and you are redirected to Cumulus without explanation. Could CBC stand for the obvious?

On FM, the following in OK are licensed to Radio License Holding CBC LLC, per FCC FM Query: WWLS-FM 98.1 The Village [NW OKC suburb where I used to live], KYIS 98.9 OKC, KATT 100.5 OKC, KKWD 104.9 Bethany. Except for 104.9 which I could not hear anyway, the other three FM would get knocked off the air simultaneously via storms.

WKY used to run some commercials and PubAffs shows in English; so now will they insert anything in Spanish? When ESPN-D appeared, WKY dismissed their ``La Indomable`` Spanish DJ staff. From Nov. 2014: http://www.w4uvh.net/WKY930AM-ad.jpg

Former ESPN-D affiliates everywhere must be trying to find something to replace it; will English or Spanish prevail? See my recent report of 1650 KSVE El Paso TX (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 1580, Sept 9 at 1757 UT, I notice that KOKB Blackwell is back on the air; might have resumed Sept 8 before I noticed. Had been off since at least Sept 3 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 88.3, as of Sept 10, I have been meaning to note that the Family Radio satellator in Enid, K202BY, has been totally off the air again for about a week. Not just dead air! A little less QRM for my SW caradio feeder set on 88.3; and with it off, 88.3 open again for KOSR Stillwater, if not DX (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 1998 monitoring: confirmed UT Tuesday Sept 10 at 0100 on WRMI, 7780, fair in noise level. Next:

2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 to SSE

2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW

0100 UT Thursday WRMI 7780 to NE

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 9475 & 5830, Sept 9 at 2035, WTWW-1 is off now and most of the time rather than on with SFAW PPPP (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1490, Sept 10 at 0625 UT, ``The Entertainer`` by Joplin on piano is just ending as some signal is briefly atop the graveyard jungle/jumble, then ``The Fabulous 1490, KDMO`` YL ID, seems to loop NE/SW before fade. That`s Carthage MO, near Joplin, ENE. Could Scott`s tunes be thematic for Joplinites? Still NOStalgia format. Previously logged here Sept 7, 2017 at 1240 UT.

BTW, not to be confused with KDMO, the airport ID in Sedalia MO beyond, which runs beacon DMO on 281 kHz as reported by Harold Frodge, MI. Nor with Sedalia`s 1490 station, KDRO! (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

I agree with his recommendations and have forwarded them to HLR.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 15825 & 13845, Sept 9 at 1451, WWCRs hitting S9+30 rather than JBA carriers, demonstrating that HF sporadic E is still in play; ham Es map at 1526 shows only one Es spot over Georgia with 82 MHz MUF; and no contacts on 28 MHz. But at 1625 there is a 32 MHz MUF about halfway between Nashville and here (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1539.95 approx., Sept 8 at 0602 UT, LAH against 1540.0 stations such as KXEL. I`ve been noticing this for some time. On MW with all the QRM, it`s harder to measure to three decimal places. In the past this has been KGBC Galveston TX. DF seems to fit, and apparently it is off-minus still or again, as Terry Krueger, now moved to Niceville FL in the Panhandle, has just reported to DXLD:

``1539.903, TEXAS, KGBC, 0918 August 28, 2019. Very poor, with Mexi-tunes on peaks, and confirmed it's KGBC per D. Crawford who had it a few days earlier and since on 1539.903. And not to be confused with the still off-channel and variable KBOA Kennett MO on 1539.996-1540.005, this check on the low side with "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late" by Denice Williams & Johnny Mathis.``

Per 2019/2020 NRC AM Log, which does not deal with offfrequenciness, latest KGBC format is Tejano, U4 2500/250 watts. Beware, so is KEDA San Antonio, Tejano, which I guess refer only to music style. However, música is feminine, so why isn`t it called ``tejana``; machismo [where the ch is not pronounced k!]? Also, is it possible for a station outside Texas to be Tejano? Or e.g. if it play the same style of music from OK, would it be ``Oclajomano``? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 12125-USB, 13519-USB, 13788-USB, Sept 8 at 1315 within a minute on bandscan, weak 2-ways in Spanish all here, the last being INTRUDERS into the SWBC band (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
02 - 08 September 2019

Solar activity was at very low levels. Region 2748 (N14, L=205,
class/area Hsx/020 on 02 Sep) was quiet and stable and decayed to
plage on 03 Sep. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed.

No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
very high levels on 02-04 Sep and high levels on 05-08 Sep. Electron
flux reached a maximum of 87,900 pfu at 04/1835 UTC.

Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to G1 (minor) storm
levels on 02 Sep due to effects from a large, recurrent, positive
polarity CH HSS. From 03-06 Sep, quiet to active levels were
observed as HSS effects continued. Quiet to unsettled levels were
observed from 07-08 Sep. Wind speeds began the period near 750 km/s,
but slowly decayed to end the period near 400 km/s.

Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
09 September - 05 October 2019

Solar activity is expected to be at very low levels.

No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.

The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be at high levels from 09-13 Sep, and again from 27 Sep
- 06 Oct due to HSS effects. Normal to moderate levels are expected
on 14-26 Sep.

Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be at mostly quiet levels
on 09-26 Sep. Isolated unsettled periods are possible on 23, 26 and
30 Sep, and 01-03 Oct. G1 (minor) to G2 (moderate) geomagnetic storm
levels are likely on 27-29 Sep due to positive polarity CH HSS
effects.

The BBC and World War Two

On 3 September 1939 Britain went to war with Hitler’s Germany. In the fight against fascism, broadcasting played a starring role: as informant, morale-booster, propaganda weapon.

Eighty years on, we’re opening-up the archives to shed new light on how the BBC shaped the experience of war – and how war transformed the BBC in return.

Obiettivo DX 845 - 08/09/19

Glenn Hauser logs September 7-8, 2019

** ALBANIA. 13665, Sept 7 at 1229, discussion in English, soon mixed with Chinese, a dead giveaway, and 1230 `Takeaway Chinese` show. It`s CRI as scheduled 1100-1300 in English via Cërrik. Not much else on band except Cuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CANADA. 341 kHz, Sept 7 at 0603 UT, dash and YYU, 500 watts from Kapuskasing, Ontario, no trouble overriding my local on 341, EI. Per http://www.dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm this is ``TO BE DECOMMISSIONED 2019-10-10``

The same red warning is appended to several others I have extracted:

206 XBE Bearskin Lake ON 25

208 YSK Sanikiluaq NU 500

230 VG Vermilion AB 1000

230 YD Smithers BC 500

235 CN Cochrane ON 100

241 YGT Igloolik NU 500

257 YXR Earlton ON 205

260 YSQ Atlin BC 1000

266 YFH Fort Hope ON 200

269 ZW Teslin YT 1000

305 YQ Churchill MB 500

323 UWP Argentia NL 550

343 YGO Gods Lake Narrows MB 200

344 YOP Rainbow Lake AB 500

368 YJF Fort Liarrd NT 500

373 ZFM Fort McPherson NT 40

380 YUB Tuktoyaktuk NT 2000

391 TK Smithers - Telkwa BC 100

These are the only ones indicated with a specific date. A number of others still in the list are already labeled Decommissioned (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDIA. See OMAN [non]

** MEXICO. 800, Sept 7 at 1210, Spanish virtually zero-beat with KQCV OKC, which I null as much as possible; discussing border issues at Juárez; 1211 mentions ``Calibre``, keyword for XEROK, contraxion for ``Canal Libre``, as if it were still a ``clear channel``; 1211 rooster crows (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 870, Sept 7 as I try to ID the SS from the South as KFJZ Fort Worth [see U S A], by 1202 I am also hearing the choral Mexican NA from the SW, which has to be XETAR; 1204, multilingual XETAR IDs; 1208 fades up ``XETAR, Su voz en la Sierra Tarahumara``, but I`ve heard it much better before at SRS (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 7 DTV, Sept 7 around 0415-0440 UT, KOCO ``5`` is on the verge, continually breaking up during the Jimmy Kimmel show and a bit of Nightline. One of my TV antennas has trouble getting a sufficient signal from our `local` ABC affiliate. So I have a fest snapping still after still of pixillated DTV breakup art, 67 of them; to be winnowed down to the best of the best with the most variety for my gallery. QRX (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 36 DTV, Sept 7 at 1352 UT, some tropo from Tulsa area judging from maps and Bad signals, but this one decodes as: DTV 17-1 TBN HD. That is not helpful, but as W9WI.com confirms, this is the new repacked channel for 1000 kW, KDOR-TV in Bartlesville, ex-17; so it will not interfere any more with Enid`s K17JN-D, whatever its masquerade. PSIP lineup:

17-1, TBN HD

17-2, Hilsong [sic, gotta delete a letter to get it down to 7]

17-3, COMBO

17-4, Enlace

17-5, TBN SD

W9WI.com disagrees on a couple: 17-3 JUCE; 17-5 Salsa. As with some multi-casters, it could be certain subchannels are timeshared, so the other names might apply elsewhen? It still seems strange that 36 will soon be the top of the UHF TV band. Bring back 83! (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OMAN [non]. 9620, Sept 7 at 1443, since I have the OH5AE SDR in Finland up to check WOR, also try for RSO English hour as reported recently reactivated. Instead, S Asian talk with some hum, squeal and distortion, and no trace of Oman. 1445 ID in passing as All India Radio, as scheduled 250 kW from Aligarh in Sindhi at 1230-1500, among other transmissions on 9620 --- not a good spot for RSO anyway (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 7 at 2222, VOT on today unlike yesterday, but VP with flutter, music (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 293 kHz, Sept 7 at 0601 UT, ND beacon FBY, which is 25 watts from Fairbury, Nebraska, logged a few times before. ATM I notice that my line noise level abates below 300 kHz (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1998 monitoring: Ivo Ivanov reports from Bulgaria: ``GERMANY, World of Radio#1998 via Hamburger Lokalradio, September 7:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gV7g9ByRgS4&feature=youtu.be

https://swldxbulgaria.blogspot.com/2019/09/world-of-radio1998-via-hamburger..html

0630-0700 6190 GOH 001 kW / 230 deg CeEu English Sat, fair to good``

Barely confirmed audible on 9485-CUSB Hamburger Lokalradio, via OH5AE SDR, Sat Sept 7 at 1445, vs heavy splash from 9490 Romania. Before that undetectable on UTwente SDR.

Alan Gale reports: ``Hi Glenn, I'm hearing World of Radio here in north west England again today, not very strong but it's definitely there on 9485 kHz and even came up a bit towards the middle part but then faded out completely after around 1450 UT.

I tried it on my SDRplay today and found that a USB bandwidth of around 1.5 kHz worked best, but with the splatter it wasn't easy to understand too much of what was being said, especially with some fading on the signal as well. As you can see from the waterfall display, a LSB signal would have no trouble at all, it's just the upper sideband that is suffering, and even a double sideband AM signal would probably fare better as you could at least tune lower or use your IF shift to remove some of the splatter. Alan.``

Also confirmed, Sat Sept 7 at 2100 on WRMI 9955 after IS & ID loop, S9-S7 and fluttery, upcut at ``---with World of Radio 1998``.

NOT confirmed UT Sunday Sept 8 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, which had been our only WRMI frequency across North America; instead music, and soon VORW mailbag. WRMI sked has been revised to show 5850 // 5010 during this hour but still claims WOR on both now; while VORW was already scheduled this hour on UT Fridays; a mistake, John, or a change? I do confirm that much weaker 5010 is now // 5850. And not // to any of the others WRMIs.

Confirmed UT Sunday Sept 8 at 0347 on WA0RCR, 1860-AM, Wentzville MO, about 12 minutes into so started late around 0335; good S9+20 but considerable storm crashes, from eastern NM into the OK panhandle.

(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5085, Sat Sept 7 at 2330 and later, WTWW-2 sig is not very big, but as also on L&C webcast, just hamstuff, no Theatre Organ in the Ozarx. Now the website says: ``Listen to Bob Heil's Organ Music On WTWW Airs Saturdays 8 pm on 5085!`` But is that very old or very new info? If CDT that would be 0100 UT Sunday (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 870, Sept 7 at 1151 UT I`m up again hoping to ID the Spanish gospel huxtering from the south which seems like it has to be KFJZ Fort Worth, contrary to format listings. There he is; but at 1157, a bit of hymn, no ID and sudden switch to another program, ``Renuevas ---`` algo, with a YL pushing something for $29 which seems to be secular. Phone number frequently edited in with another OM voice, 1-888-366-2340. Reverse phone number uplooking is no fun unless you are prepared to pay unknown websites. Fading down some, meanwhile mostly separable XETAR fading up from 1202 past 1205; see MEXICO (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, Sept 7 at 1153: 747, 774, 828 all from the NW, the Big Three from NHK Japan; no others noted as I am also DXing 10-kHz channels (Glenn Hauser, OK,, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

RTE 252 maintenance

Works have begun on september 4 to help ensure the continuance of RTÉ’s longwave radio service for a minimum of two years, a Fine Gael TD has said.

Deputy Hildegarde Naughton, Chair of the Oireachtas Communications Committee, said: “I have received confirmation from the national broadcaster that works have begun today on elements of the transmission equipment which will help ensure the continuance of the longwave service for a minimum of a further two years.

“The maintenance of long wave radio for the Irish diaspora has been a significant concern to the Committee.

“Earlier this year, RTÉ committed to maintaining the service following engagement with the Committee and I am pleased that listeners abroad can now be assured that service will continue for a minimum of two years.”

Deputy Naughton continued: “While other long term alternative solutions continue to be explored, RTÉ has to undertake significant remedial works on elements of the transmission equipment, mainly the antenna/mast.

“Given the height of the mast this work has to happen now in advance of the winter. To facilitate this essential maintenance, and to ensure the safety of those undertaking the work, service was suspended for a time today and will be suspended again tomorrow, Thursday, from 9.30am until 4.30pm.

“This initial outage is to facilitate the preparatory work for a subsequent, more extensive and essential body of work to maintain this service.

“This larger body of maintenance work will be carried out between Tuesday 10th September and Thursday 17th October.

“During both of these times, RTÉ Radio 1 will not be available via LW, however listeners will be advised of the various alternatives available such as listening via apps and television while the usual service is off air.”

Deputy Naughton concluded: “I welcome the efforts being made to continue this service, which serves as an invaluable link between the diaspora and home.

“However I intend to work with the committee to explore other longer term alternative solutions to ensure this service continues in the long term.”

Glenn Hauser logs September 6--7, 2019

** GUAM. 11955, Sept 6 at 2205, nice hallelujah harmonies, 2217 Indonesian talk at S8 to S9+10. KSDA scheduled this hour daily.

12040, Sept 6 at 2218, slightly weaker SE Asian talk; must be Sundanese as scheduled from KSDA this semihour on days 2467 per Aoki/NDXC, as this is UT Friday = day 6; otherwise English on 135.

I remain impressed by how well KSDA serves deep North America during its broadcasts supposedly aimed at SE Asia, both 100 kW at 255 degrees (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, Sept 6 at 2206 and 2249 chex, no signal from VOT English to N America; must be off, as Spain is propagating 9690 very well. Something`s always wrong at TRT Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 7335, Sept 6 at 2247, Radio Martí VG signal as usual, and barely audible under jamming on 9565, 11930. Meant to check earlier in day whether any Grimesland NC frequencies were blown off by edges of Hurricane Dorian, but all OK now (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1998 monitoring: confirmed first SWBC, Friday Sept 6 at 2200 on WRMI 9955, no upcut, S9-S5; by 2227 weakening to S8-S5 and traces of Cuban pulse jamming beginning to appear.

Also confirmed UT Sat Sept 7 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, poor vs HLNL.

** U S A. 9330.13v, Friday Sept 6 at 2151, WBCQ is on here at S8 with hard rock music instead of NOAA Weather Radio relay. Must be gearing up for AAAWWW. At 2222 the modulation is cutting off and on.

7490.21v, Friday Sept 6 at 2153, `Behaviour Night` music, but too much noise here to enjoy Sir Scratchy and his ancient tunes.

(7490), UT Sat Sept 7 from 0000, WBCQ webcast of `Allan and Angela Weiner WorldWide`, since I am busy editing on computer, don`t even try to hear it on SW. Ramsey calls in almost immediately, and I keep listening since there is hardly and politix this week, just about the SuperStation and technology, such as railing against computer dependence --- keep it out of our transmitters!

But first at 2359 Sept 6, I notice that previous program wrapping up, radiosermontime.org thinx he will be on WINB 9625 [sic] tomorrow, and also on WWRB 5050. Clunk, hangs up phone. That weblink does not work.

First, AW makes it clear that he does *not* want to be stuffed post-mortem, note that Angela! Even if it`s legal in strange Canada.

6160 has been retubed by TimTron, at a cost of tens of thousands of dollars; and blew 800-amp fuses.

Lack of equipment support: Ampegon that went bankrupt are dicks. Continental people are dickish.

One guy formerly with Ampegon, RF engineer named Norbert is now here working on the antenna. Antenna tuning unit is in the tubular sexion. 50 and 100 ohms have to be matched for different frequencies. The ATU has four caps which cost $18K each. Two coils are ganged together by a chain, which broke. A special 8-mm chain, hard to replace, but Angela located one which was shipped in from NC, arrived today. It`s like a bicycle chain, and lubricated like one. AW went up 40 feet to install it, and now that is working. Tonight`s show is ``quinta-casting`` on 3265, 5130, 6160, 7490, 9330=backup not SS.

At 0055 looks thru the new issue of Free Radio Weekly, just published, mentions pirates logged and frequencies, but no dates, times or credit; including YHWH by me which he thinx is religious --- hee hee, yeah, anti-Christ, as I often denominate it but not this time. Then to e-mail. Confirms that 9330 has been relaying NOAA Weather Radio, from FL, SC, NC, and would do that again if needed. Thinx that Our Father is responsible for steering Dorian away from US mainland. Prayer until 0104, then plugs 6160 available 24/7 at $35 an hour; or would like to lease it out full-time.

5130 is a ``loss-leader`` subsidized partially by Larry Will and AW, now offering a fall pirate special at $10/hour for a minimum of two hours --- avoid getting busted with a 10-megadollar fine. Some time also available on 7490, but not 9330 or 3265; finally ends at 0107.

Here`s John Carver`s version: ``Tonight's show started on time on 7490. Allan and Angela in the studio. Opening talk concerned a statement about wanting to stuff Allan when he died. Allan said no. First phone call at 0005 from Ramsey, pointing out to Allan that Roy Rogers had Trigger stuffed when he died. Discussion about having people stuffed and then one on preserving people's heads after they died.

There has been some support from the old Ampegon company starting to trickle through. They've sent an engineer from Germany who has been helping them adjust the antenna. A chain that is used during the antenna change broke. Angela found a man in North Carolina who could duplicate the chain. Was shipped out before the hurricane and Allan and John had to go forty feet above ground to install the chain. They had to modify the antenna adjustment plate for the new chain to work but it's working properly now.

Long discussion about how poorly digital and computerized things work and how Allan wishes they would be built the old way. Reading of emails at 0054 beginning with the Free Radio Weekly. Closing prayer at 0101. It was announced that they have a special on airtime on 5130. Two hour minimum time slot at ten dollars per hour. Program was off the air at 0106 and then into Brother Stair. Despite the signal reports this evening I had a poor signal or no signal on the frequencies I tried. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
