New Religious Shortwave Broadcaster from Illinois to use DRM
The FCC accepted for filing on May 27 an application from Parable Broadcasting, LLC, a company based in Norfolk, Virginia, to build an international shortwave broadcasting station in Batavia, Illinois, specifically, “to serve areas of Europe that may be authorized by the Commission.
The planned broadcast content includes religious and educational programming as well as data content provided by third parties. The applicant is positioning the proposed station to take advantage of the recent push by the National Association of Shortwave Broadcasters to develop and provide content for the growing DRM [Digital Radio Mondiale] market.”
The planned broadcast content includes religious and educational programming as well as data content provided by third parties. The applicant is positioning the proposed station to take advantage of the recent push by the National Association of Shortwave Broadcasters to develop and provide content for the growing DRM [Digital Radio Mondiale] market.”
According to the filing, the station will use two 15 kW transmitters from Amplifier Systems, Inc. and utilize a two-section log-periodic antenna of 18.0 dBi gain, mounted 184 feet above ground. The transmission line, made by Comscope, will be 5-inch diameter 50-ohm coaxial cable 550 feet long. The document states that the station will broadcast only in DRM mode. The filing indicates the station will “operate between 5.9-15.8 MHz international shortwave bands coordinated with the FCC and HFCC [High Frequency coordinating Committee].”
According to drawings submitted by the engineering firm, the log-periodic antennas will be a wire configuration supported by two towers that will allow, a small area of land that replaces a rhombic antenna twice the size and achieves a low take-off angle while operating on a wide frequency bandwidth (4-30 MHz), achieving over 18 dBi power gain.
Parable Broadcasting Company's HF application submitted to FCC can be forund here :https://ecfsapi.fcc.gov/file/104261750512086/Parable%20HF%20Application%20(Final).pdf

WORLD OF RADIO SCHEDULES
http://www.worldofradio.com/radioskd.html
Both updated as of June 30
** ALBANIA [non]. 15770, June 30 at 2030 I happen to tune across here as the Radio Tirana IS plays via WRMI; soon canned sign on claiming it`s only on internet, as if this SW relay be inconsequential or even unknown at HQ! Well, it is just about, as the original 6-day-a-week schedule has been pared down and down to only one, on Tuesdays, presumably ceded to paying customers. Off the side here, this one anyway is unusable, S9-S7 but too much noise level (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey June 30 at 1329: 14850 S9-S6 fluttery; 14400 JBA carrier algo; 15130; 12880 JBA; 12870 S9-S7; 12190 JBA carrier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA [and non]. 7254.9v, June 30 at 0550, VON is on already with open carrier except for some hum; 0559 recheck in IS and sign-on Hausa; after missing a few nights. This does not deter a ham QSO on 7253-LSB at 0600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA. 11769.903V, June 30 at 2033, VON in unknown talk, Hausa scheduled, S9-S7 but noisy and undermodulated? Often detected in the afternoons here, always way off-frequency, but haven`t measured it in quite a while. Carrier slightly unstable too (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 92.3, June 30 circa 1430 UT on caradio, on the way to Primary poll to advance Sen. Inhofe`s opposition, Oklahoma news where normally only fringe remnants of somethings, KS dominant; non-ID as ``Z-92``, soon obviously the Woodward station which is only 10.5 kW H&V ERP, altho ``Z-92`` is not in the WTFDA DB:
``KMZE 92.3 WOODWARD OK 10.5 368.0 m 36-16-23 99-26-45 TALK/SPORTS TRI STATES NEWS TALK SPORTS``.
Searching 92.3 on ``Z-92`` (hyphen required) would lead instead to stations in FL, NE. Minor tropo enhancement westward (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5890, June 30 at 0552, WWCR-4 is off again, no Brother Scare here. Daytime channel 9980 also gone, June 30 at 1743 check. So maybe the transmitter be broken, or Overcomer`s virtually 24/7 buyout be over already in less than a full month? Had not paid attention to whether the previous few hours a weekday with otherhuxters remain on #4 air: 9980 M-F 20-21; 5890 Tu-Sa 02-04. But June 30 at 2025, 9980 is also OFF. Maybe we shall see a revised program schedule after July 1, mostly blank (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, June 30 at 2221, VOT is detectable, but very weak and unreadable vs no RTTY, but local persistent birdie, talk rather than music fill. Try UTwente, and find excellent reception, `Turkey`s Tourist Attraxions` about Mardin, ending into music at 2223 --- one of the talk programs still being aired if not produced, probably evergreens. Mardin is in the southeast, i.e. Kurdistan and has a majority-Kurdish population who spell it Mêrdin. I`ll bet TRT didn`t emphasize that or even mention it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2040 monitoring: confirmed UT Tue June 30 at
0100 on WRMI 7780, JBA here, good at UTwente SDR. Next:
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW

One may also contribute via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com PayPal not necessarily in US funds as they will convert. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. WRMI: see ALBANIA [non]
** U S A. WWCR: see SOUTH CAROLINA [non]
** U S A. 93.1, re my strange reception of KRVN 93.1 over a 319-mile path, there is of course a #3 possibility for propagation mode --- meteor scatter. I did not consider this at the time, since it lasted at least a minute and did not display any rapid fading, both of which are uncharacteristic of MS --- but the ``in-between`` distance is more appropriate, and a fireball might have lasted that long. I wonder if there is any reference of such events and their precise locations and timings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 7755-USB, June 30 at 0544, weak 2-way with ``cambios``, but don`t recognize any other Spanish. Do they also say ``cambio`` in Tagalog or any other languages? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

Oromia National Media - Arraata Biyyoolessa Oromiyaa organisation
Oromia National Media-Arraata Biyyoolessa Oromiyaa - which organisation behind the new Oromo language broadcast ?
two decades ago we had some similar veiled Oromia Independence Clandestine shortwave radios, one from USA brokered by Ludo Maes Belgium, Oromo Voice Radio, Raadiyoo Sagalee Oromoo, mostly via TDF Issoudun France;
also via DTK Julich / Wertachtal bcast center these days in 2004 - 2006 year 15650kHz Voice of Oromia Independence (via Julich) via WRMI Jeff White Miami FL USA Broker.
The other from West Berlin-Germany location via DTK/MBR Julich / Wertachtal / Nauen Germany ... SBO Sagalee Bilisummaa Oromoo or Voice of Oromia Liberation Front
NO FACEBOOK video play access ... just negative try.
as no facebook member, tried the odyssey to get the imprint, location of Oromia Clandestine somewhere, but always pressured to went-into new Facebook account - as the only way.
so see the youtube video instead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cllQFjP3txU

Keeping AM radio alive
World Music Radio (WMR) has been broadcasting on 5840 and 15805 kHz since 2018. Coming soon is 927 kHz. And Radio208 has been broadcasting since December 2019 on 1440 kHz and since May 2020 also on shortwave 5805 kHz. It has cost a lot of time, energy and money – but it has been and still is great fun – keeping shortwave and mediumwave alive. The cost of the transmitters (some 15000 euro), aerials and transmitter sites is one thing. Another thing is the running cost. The two big expenses are: Music royalties: 450 euro each month; Power costs: 1300 euro each month (when all transmitters are on full power). If you could help keeping WMR and Radio208 on the air, your support would be highly appreciated. All amounts are welcome. Please use this link: paypal.me/worldmusicradio or make a bank transfer to Hartvig Media, Hovedvejen 17, DK 8920 Randers NV – IBAN DK1093310007162081 – SWIFT KRONDK22
All contributors donating at least 25 euro will receive a WMR mouse pad (23 x 18 cm). Please mention your street address.
If you want your contribution to be anonymous please write “anon” All contributors donating at least 25 euro will receive a WMR mouse pad (23 x 18 cm). Please mention your street address.

Highlights of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
22 - 28 June 2020
Solar activity was very low over the reporting period. Several areas
of plage with intermittent spots/pores were observed but none
persisted long enough to be assigned an active region number. No
Earth-directed CMEs were observed in available coronagraph imagery.
No proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit was at
normal background to moderate levels.
Geomagnetic field activity ranged from quiet to unsettled. On Jun
26-27, isolated periods of unsettled levels were observed around a
shift in phi angle, which suggested influence of a SSBC. The
remainder of the reporting period was quiet under ambient solar wind
conditions.
Forecast of Solar and Geomagnetic Activity
29 June - 25 July 2020
Solar activity is expected to be very low over the outlook period.
No proton events are expected at geosynchronous orbit.
The greater than 2 MeV electron flux at geosynchronous orbit is
expected to be at normal background levels.
Geomagnetic field activity is expected to be quiet to unsettled.
Unsettled conditions are likely on 30 Jun - 01 Jul and 06-07 Jul in
response to multiple, recurrent CH HSSs. The remainder of the
outlook period is likely to observe quiet conditions.

Glenn Hauser logs June 29, 2020
** CHINA. CNR1 jammer survey, June 29, I am checking unusually before 1300; at 1258, 13070, 12870 in Chinese; 1259, 12800 JBA carrier; 13550 with 5+1 timesignal to 1300*.
1302, 15130, which is vs VOA Mandarin via Philippines this hour only.
At 1354, 12870; 12190 vs CODAR; 11120, 10920, 10820 JBA; at 1358, 14400 JBA carrier; 1359, 9230 & 9215 music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** NIGERIA. 7255- & 9690-, June 29 at 0614 check, VON AWOL from both. Must be disheartening for the program producers back in Abuja or Lagos; or do they even know or care about the weakest link, ultimate SW situation? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 94.3, June 29 at 1650 and still at 1815 UT, KLGB-LP Enid in dead air, unusual. This would have been helpful if there were any DX on 94.1 or 94.5. Most of the time it`s just playing gospel rock, not even predicating. It started out from a local church and one can still see it on N Van Buren, but unseems anything else is going on in that building. LP tower also hosts 99.9 LPFM. Website provided by radio-locator is blocked by Firefox as security risk. Says ownership is now Covenant Life Ministries; searching for that leads to a different address in Enid. I think the station is just plugged into some satellite feed, except when it fail (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

``28.298 K5TLL C HATTIESBURG, MISSISSIPPI # 25W, VERTICAL New Freq 14 Dec 08``
No FM DX now, but from opposite direxion, Es MUF also provides WWV on 25000 at 0124 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 28224.5, June 29 at 1402, at least enough sporadic E MUF to re-audiblize beacon K5GJR/B plus uncopied grid square. It is:
``28.2245 K5GJR C CORPUS CHRISTI, TX # 5W, VERTICAL``

Kearns is a SW suburb of SLC. He has the largest qrz.com page I`ve ever run across: huge supply of stills and videos, many political and/or funny: https://www.qrz.com/lookup/k7emx Several mentions of his 6m beacon but unfound anything about 10m (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2040 monitoring: I was not aware of it at the time, but ``From, the desk of Richard’s listening Post, Richard Lemke, City: St. Albert, Province: Alberta, Country: Canada Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees
Dear Glenn: heard World of Radio rescheduled now on 7730 kHz at 0030 June 29 UT (I don’t know if this was the first time heard or longer period this frequency I gave [up?] on monitoring),
USA, WRMI, 7730 kHz, 0030-0059 UTC, heard World of Radio #2040, 0031, 0044 signal S 7 (453), June 29 UTC (Lemke, Richard -AB) Good Listening, June 29, 2020``
Yes, I see it now in the System D schedule for UT Mondays, without notice a significant change since last checked. (BTW it still shows imaginary WORings at 1030 on 5950, several times 21-22 on System D without freqencies, Wed 21 on 7780, Sat 1130 on 9955.)
I reconfirm: UT Mon June 29 at 0130 on WRMI 7780, JBA weak vs high storm noise level, but at 0143 good via UTwente, VG via Maine SDR; and also on WRN webcast.
Also confirmed UT Mon June 29 at 0230 on WRMI 7780, again JBA vs HSNL, but 0240 VG at Maine.
Also confirmed UT Mon June 29 from 0303 on Area 51 via WBCQ 5130, good at Rochester NY SDR; ``The Show Is Over`` intoned JL until 0301, then a couple minutes of A51 wildness, before WBCQ ID and WOR start.
5130 direct is useless; Blitzortung map shows lots of storms
including: SW NE to S MB; E AR; MN/WI; SC; VT/NH.
Also confirmed UT Monday June 29 at 0330 on WRMI 9955, good at TWR Bonaire KiwiSDR.
Also confirmed Monday June 29 from 1800:37 on IRRS 7290 Bulgaria as monitored via UTwente SDR; tuned in at 1757 to open carrier vs RTTY wobble on 7291, evitable on LSB, and inevitable splash from 7280 Vietnam, 7300 Iran; a few seconds before 1759 cut on modulation which I immediately recognize as within a `Wavescan` as Ray starts talking about Gough Island. IRRS also stix fragments of WOR on air as filler unpredictably. That`s chopped off a few sex before 1800 for IRRS sign-on, the n/a one recommending synch tuning to reduced carrier USB which this is not; FSN Washington very quick headlines and then WOR. Running OK past 1810; and 1820 recheck;
(but sudden thunder here thrice around 1824/1826/1828 despite none predicted, and no storms anywhere near per Blitzortung which does also detect them: popups, and hasten to close down antennas and computers.) Next:
0100 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to NE

Thanks this week for financial support from Gerald T. Pollard, Raleigh NC, who sends a generous quarterly contribution marking Solstices & Equinoxes, by check in US funds on a US bank to Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702
One may also contribute via PayPal to woradio at yahoo.com PayPal not necessarily in US funds as they will convert. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4980, June 29 at 0227, JBA carrier, presumed still/again WRMI few watts of exciter only as marker, in case they want to resume 100 kW upon it. I can`t make out any modulation, nor at 0615, but Anker Petersen, Denmark, reported earlier to the NASWA Flashsheet:
``4980 USA. WRMI, Okeechobee, FL, 0150-0155, 25.6. English talk, music and song. 15231 // 5010 (25333). (Anker Petersen, Skovlunde, Denmark. Equipment: AOR AR7030Plus with 28 metres of longwire`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5050, June 29 at 0226, WWRB with gospel huxter at S9+30/40; only active frequency and only on weekends; the most underutilized of US SW stations, wonder why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5890, June 29 at 0620, WWCR-4 is OFF, so no TOM, sob! But he`s still on squealy 3215; 5935 DGS is on but weakish; 4840 VG with OTR drama, instead of scheduled Overcomer (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. I recently remarked that `Wavescan` did not have a regular themesong; in fact it does, as in script for June 21 edition, it`s: ``Opening Theme (00:00) Birthday Serenade: Willi Glahe``
But it was surprisingly replaced by something else when I listened June 27 at 1501 on KVOH 17775, probably first advance airing of June 28 edition: ``Opening Theme (00:00): Youtube: Quarantine Anthem`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7315, June 29 at 0128, horrible squeals coming out of WHRI during Voice of Vietnam relay, making own audio hard to follow; spreads 7305-7325 but somewhat elbowed by VOA/Vatican violating SOCAS on 7305. With BFO I try to zero beat the multiple peaks to approx.: 7309.4, 7313.2, 7313.7, 7316.3, 7317.5, 7319, 7321 as they beat against each other as well as the fundamental. Tuned directly to 7315.0, one can also tell modulation is distorted; first thought it was Spanish instead of scheduled Vietnamese. 7315 squealing still at 0225 during WHRI`s own gospel music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 93.1, June 29 at 1642 UT on caradio, I`ve been alert for Es, altho when I departed, DXMAPs were not showing MUFs 88+ MHz. Among several semi-open frequencies, My 93.1 in Hutchinson is getting CCI, which at this time totally overtakes it with PSAs about Nebraska, mentions Rural Radio Network (as on KRVN AM 880 et al.), then ``93.1 the River`` ID. So it is per WTFDA FM Database:
``KRVN-FM 93.1 LEXINGTON NE 100.0 kW H&V, 271.2 m HAAT, 40-41-48 99-47-18, COUNTRY 93.1 THE RIVER``
Trouble is, distance city-to-city is 514 km = 319 statute miles --- too close theoretically for sporadic E, at least without a huge high-MUF opening; yet far too far for groundwave lacking a tropo opening. A fluke of some sort or other, but which could it be? (Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, WOR)

Trasmissione test da Woofferton
Questa mattina (29 Giugno 2020) alle 1047UTC (s/off alle 1055) ho ascoltato una trasmissione test con invito ad inviare il rapporto di ascolto a transmissiontest@gmail.com sui 9885kHz con SINPO 55555. In tempi brevissimi ho ricevuto la risposta: si tratta come già segnalato da altri in passato di prove sul tx di Woofferton. Qui un estratto della risposta:
----------
Hello Davide,
Thank you for your report and I confirm the details are correct. These transmissions were to fault-find on a 250/300 kW sender at the UK HF transmitter station at Woofferton.
These duration of these tests can be variable as the engineers can sometimes need a long time to establish a fault or they may interrupt the test, make an adjustment and resume. This is particularly so if the fault is of an intermittent nature.
Encompass Digital Media, Woofferton is the only remaining UK HF sender broadcast station and also is the only one with this transmission test audio and email address.
The audio is contained in a file play-out system and incorporates non-copyright music and voice announcements from one of the engineers, Martin 2E1EKX at the transmitter site.
Thanks for your interest.
