** ALGERIA. 13590, July 15 at 0111, S7/S9 of just barely modulated
music, presumed Ifrikya FM as usual. Nothing on 13790 now. The latter
is always there after 0600 making a double het with CNR1/RFA Saipan.
EiBi, Aoki, HFCC July 13 and WRTH Update #15 as of July 14 all agree
on: 21-03 13590, 131 degrees from Béchar; 13790 20-09, 210 from
Ouargla. And they are all wrong, quoting excessive registrations
rather than monitored usage (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ALGERIA. 13590 & 13790, July 17 at 0118, unlike July 15, now both
Ifrikya FM sites and frequencies are on with rock music, mentions
``Afrique`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Saturday July 15 at tune-in 1905 via
Argentine remote, LRA36 good S9+15 but zero signal direct, just as
they are IDing for RAE, credits mentioning the Catamarca FM station;
1907 produced segment with music background about Malvinas, etc., etc.
At 2000 still talking about Catamarca, maybe playing segment produced
there. JBA S5/S6 by 2042, local noise level undiminished, and
inaudible by 2100, off early? Regular Saturday broadcasts nominally
18-23 UT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** AUSTRALIA. 5035 LSB & 3210 USB, Unique Radio reactivated: see 
U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO MONITORING

** AUSTRALIA [and non]. 10125-USB, phone not CW, July 18 at 0643, JBA
Aussies in ragchew; one IDs as VK5-something. Same frequency as much
more regular HK3QQ Bogotá, Colombia with its slow sequences of CW
letters in keyboard order, some with errors, but no QRM with BFO on
USB 10125 exactly (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** BRAZIL. The only ZY on three SW frequencies at once, R. Voz
Missionária, and never exact as I measure them this time, July 18 at
0624-0630, with music and Portuguese ID:
5940.220, S7 vs HSNL;
9664.901, S5/9;
11750.062, S4/S6 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9535, July 13 at 0649, RHC Spanish, S7/S9, only overtime
frequency tonight. SAWA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11670, July 14 at 0645, tonight`s only extra RHC, S8/S9 in
Spanish but undermodulated with squeal. Something`s always wrong at 
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, July 17 at 0124, S9+10/20 of big humbuzz, obviously RHC
but English or Spanish? No program mod; wiggle that patchcord.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, July 17 at 0633, extra tonight in Spanish S7/S9 but
just barely modulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, July 18 at 0150, no signal from RHC. Sometimes on here
in English, leaving only 6000 at 0151, S9+10/20 but
undermodulatedistortion. 9700 supposedly ex-6165, never heard any
more. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 15140, July 18 at 0645, RHC in Spanish, S9+10/20 and the SSOB
on this overrun ``daytime`` frequency sometimes latenight rather than
9535, 9700, 11670 or 11760. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11760, July 8 at 2207, RHC Spanish only S4/S6 with
QRM from Chinese music. That would be CRI `Portuguese` with fill-music
only as per Aoki sked this hour from Xianyang 59 site. Commies vs
Commies! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, July 18 at 2208, RHC S1/S6 with trace? of modulation,
also parasite JBA carriers 11840; and 11860 QRMing jamming against
nothing. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 9700, July 19 at 0206, huge clash of two in Spanish
adding up to S9+10/20 direct: RHC and RRI ROMANIA which is
legitimately on 9700 this hour, vs somewhat stronger RHC, which Aoki
shows at 01-07, but of course is sporadic. Something`s always wrong at
RHC. RRI needs to move; of course, the Cubans have no love for
countries which have overthrown the yoke of Communism, long ago (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.995, July 14 at 2117 via UTwente no signal at first,
then R. Cairo cuts on S9+35 of very distorted hummy English at
9440.000. A few minutes later I notice it has settled to usual
9439.995. Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6869.92, July 13 at 0658, unID pirate music for
another late night. S7/S8; I think there was some talk but if any ID I
missed it; 0700 change to different music style. Three more reports
here, with talk but never IDs:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,115889.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2199)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6869.9 AM, July 15 at 0615, unID pirate once again
late-night, vs storm noise level. Only station on band. Two more logs
this date, 0435-0705*:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,115940.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6869.916 AM, July 16 at 0646, unID pirate with
novelty song, S9/+10 as measured now; earlier also at 0419 same level
with country/rock song. More logs this date, never any IDs:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,115988.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6869.918 AM, July 18 at 0634, never-IDing pirate a
regular late-night, S8/S9, music and talk. Lucas Bandura, BC, got an
eQSL presumably for a report on some forum such as HFU;

``From: LNL6XXX41SW <lnl6xxx41sw@protonmail.com>

** NORTH AMERICA. 6935- AM, slightly on low side, July 16 at 0420, JBA
music, only pirate besides 6870-; many reports here as All Azteca
Relay Service, 0304-0434* on 6934.968:

** NORTH AMERICA. 6200 AM, July 15 at 0630, JBA carrier, now assumed
pirate R. Vostochnaya Zvezda, ex-7400v (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. A number of Okies are intermixed with KS, TX, LA in my FM
DX report for July 17 under USA; note especially those found to be in
MONO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, July 14 at 0147 UT, K17JN-D, Enid`s only local TV
station -- axually a 3ABN satellator, is on with steady signal bar,
but all 7 channels are black and silent, not just the top of the 3
audio-only channels, which is always silent. Even with the signal
bar obvious, screen claims NO SIGNAL. BTW I have never seen any
other DTV signal with audio-only portions, but why not if you want to
allocate your resources thus. As with other unpersonned outages, this
could last for some time until HQ notice and get some contract
engineer out there to fix it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, July 14 at 1606, K17JN-D Enid is back to normal
3ABN panoply, video not black, sound not silent. BUT, at 1741 recheck,
back to dark silence yet signal meter shows it`s transmitting despite
``NO SIGNAL`` displayed on screensaver. Must be intermittent, tsk3.
But later after 1730, 1830, frozen verge frame of video sometimes
flashes on and signal meter is weak - maybe K17JN-D QRP or really off
allowing something else to attempt to reach me? Garbled and can`t
recognize anything (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 31, July 16 at 1515 UT, tropo blob over eastern OK
brings us KOET ``3`` Eufaula, drop-in OETA relay the only signal
decoding, and all four channels for a while, unlike HQ KETA 13 ``13``
inferior VHF, which often has insufficient signal at this fringe of
its coverage area from OKC. Program is `Doc Martin` as the final
season #9 is finally airing here; we`ll watch the repeat UT Monday at
0300, having also missed the first run UT Friday at 0200.

Bandscan now also gets BAD signals on: RF 10, 11, 14, 17, 18, 20, 21,
22, 28, 34, 36. AND NO signal at all on RF 7 from KOCO ``5`` OKC -- is
it off? Often insuff into my antenna; by 1620 it`s increased to Bad.
17 is never solid K17JN-D Enid 3ABN satellator any more: suspect it`s
underpowered, not needing any DX to ruin it. Note also 18, as KOPX
``62`` OKC must be Baddened by DX QRM now, soon recovered (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA [and non]. See CUBA [and non]

** SINGAPORE. 12025, July 16 at 1502, NO signal from BBCWS relay in
English, as the Kranji site has been deleted as of the date long
expected from HFCC info, despite own incompetent announcements for at
least a week that it would be gone from ``tomorrow``. Numerous WOR iog
monitors found other frequencies terminated as of 2359 UT July 15.
Also, traces of something still on 12025, ChiCom jammer? 

This situation has been a hot topic on the WOR iog. At Switzerland in
Sound, of all places, Keith Perron asserted that the real reason is
expiration of the lease on land of the site; Singapore wants it back
for other purposes (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Mon July 17 at 2206, token English from SNR, VG into
Maryland SDR and other three frequencies also audible; feature is
interview with an award-winning Canadian photographer specialising in
sub-Saharan Africa, sorely lacking any visual element. 2226 a brief
report about algo from Beirut correspondent (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed July 19 at 2200 tune-in, no token English from
SNR, but continues Spanish in progress; about political parties`
positions, debates. No doubt because of big elexion coming up July 23.
Beware of policy changes at REE, as its director, the SW/DX-friendly
Antonio Buitrago, is retiring from RTVE at yearend, but has already
turned over REE leadership to Luis Manuel Fernández Iglesias, who has
been head of the foreign languages department. Buitrago took over in
2018 and is credited with reviving SW which his predecessor had
decided to cancel, per a report in the AER group (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, July 14 at 2235, VOT English not off the air
today, S9+50 into UTwente, with ``Always By Your Side`` promo, then
`Feeling Supreme/The Healing Spring`, repeat on dietary advice for
breastfeeding mothers of gassy babies. 2242 music. 2248 `Did You Know
That`, spoken by the badaccentedess, something about archaeology, but
I refuse to strain to try to understand her. I wonder, would someone
else speaking English as awfully as she does, understand her better?
2252 s/off by the same, 2254 IS and shortly off*, Something`s always
awry at Ankara (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, July 15 at 2243, no VOT English signal into UTwente,
probably missed entire 2200+ broadcast. Something`s always erroneous
at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 7260, July 17 at 0129, VOT multi-lingual ID filler reel,
during Spanish hour - IDess for that language is really cutesy (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.019, July 17 at 2159, VOT IS, not off the air today,
S9+30 into UTwente, 2200 quite distorted in s/on also by distorted
accentedess, a double-whammy encouraging tuneout. Recheck 2258 it`s
off already, so no extra German or Portuguese. Something`s always awry
at Ankara and/or erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, July 18 at 2200 and later, no signal from VOT
English direct. Propagation degraded but ought to get something; Spain
still VG on 17855. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785.009, July 19 at 2200, no signal direct from VOT
English; nor into UTwente when checked around 2220. Something`s always
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13566.40, July 16 at 0413, HIFER beacon RVA is JBA vs CODAR.

KD9OWT/B 10M BEACON
I am currently operating a coordinated CW propogation beacon on the 10
meter band at 28,214,700 MHz. The construction of the beacon was a
collaborative effort between myself and my father N9JL.

The beacon consists of a beacon keyer circuit that uses an Arduino Uno
to key the radio. I programmed the arduino to transmit the location of
the beacon (EN51VM) as well as my callsign. The beacon operates at a
power of 5W using a Cushcraft ASQ-10 square halo antenna mounted
approximately 20 feet in the air.

the 1430 on WRMI 9955! This had been our first airing, but now it`s
something undermodulated, seems like Spanish talk, then singing; also
with lite jamming audible direct. Yet another time on WRMI is canceled
without notice -- but of course still shown on the blue-green System B
skedgrid. Also, don`t you believe same sked for WOR Saturday 1930 UT

** U S A. 7490-, UT Sat July 15 at 0000, `AAAWWW` on WBCQ, poor
reception direct with storm noise, but soon obviously a rerun as he`s
recruiting two more engineers, apparently without much success. Never
mind. Still can no longer see his twits on disgraced Twitter without
signing up. Should he say anything significant there, please let us
know (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9455, July 17 at 0122, this WRMI is DA or JBM at best,
S9+10/20. It`s either Legends per System K sked, or RAE Spanish per
transmitter grid, one of many inconsistencies, contradixions (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, July 17 at 0130, WRNO is on at S9+20/30 but distorted
music. Something`s messed up at Metairie or SNAFU at Fort Worth (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 7505, July 18 at 0149, WRNO S9+20 but still distorted
modulation like 24h ago; hard to describe but unlike distortion heard
elsewhere such as Cairo or Cuba. Is nobody listening at HQ? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9275, July 18 at 2159, bit of music from WMLK about to close
and shortly off. Last time I ran across 15150 after 0600 it was quite
weak for 300 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130 kHz, July 16 at 0700 UT, KLEY Wellington KS, break in
rock music for legal multi-station ID along with KKLE 1550 and several
FMs including translators, including its own ``The Wave`` on 100.3.
KLEY has been cheating illegally for months, obviously with at least
250 W day power instead of licensed ONE WATT at night, typically way
over 50 kW KWKH LA which beams west from Shreveport. It seems FCC
doesn`t care unless KWKH complain (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Frank Merrill replies on the IRCA iog to my repeated and
latest report of KLEY 1130 Wellington KS running full power at night:

``Daytimers on the air at night -- fmerrilljr -- Jul 17 -- #35167  

Wow, WHKY is *STILL* on huge power at night? I noticed that years
ago.  I haven't DX'ed on AM in a number of years, and I no longer have
a location to do so regularly, so I won't start again (from Chicago,
in the City). I'm also in a highrise there, with a very high noise
floor; trying to hear anything that crosses an ocean would be entirely
futile. All that said, I will never lose interest in it.

Just this past week I've read an article saying that the FCC will not
enforce any station running outside its parameters (such as KLEY
full-power at night), unless a co-channel broadcaster complains.
(This was written in response to one of Glenn Hauser's reports that he
notes KLEY on with full power at night, rather than their one-watt
licensed night power.) KWKH probably doesn't even care, unless KLEY
would QRM the signal within the listening area, which is not likely
with 250 watts. More likely for QRM from WISN or WBBR (strong
night-pattern protection notwithstanding) even before any worries
about a Kansas 250-watter.

This can also respond to the Dayton stations on 1290 and 1410 very
possibly not caring at all that they're being blasted by stations
southeast of them running unauthorized night power. Unlike the 1130
situation with KLEY/KWKH, I would definitely think that WHKY and WHLN
could very easily be "eating into" Dayton's SUBURBAN coverage, at
least. They still might not care.

All of this is ALMOST like a criminal court proceeding: the
"plaintiff" (such as KWKH or WING) apparently needs to have standing
for the FCC to enforce such infractions. KWKH would of course have
standing, but a DX'er does not.

That seems to be as good explanation of why a station can stray from
its licensed parameters for years at a time and, no matter how blatant
it seems, nothing usually happens until they just decide to stop ---
which gives them no incentive at all to stop.

UNRELATED, BUT FUN FACT:  The small town town of North, South Carolina
is southeast of Due West.`` (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 91.5, July 14 after 2200 UT on caradio, finally the days and
days of dead air from presumed KSNS Medicine Lodge KS, is gone; since
July 7, last noted July 12, not checked on 13. Now a much weaker
signal with a far-right, far-Christian gospel huxter against Trans; no
music at all, fading in and out. If KSNS be off, the next nearest
possibility is from the south near the River Red:
KCBK 91.5 FREDERICK OK SOUTHERN GOSPEL THE GOSPEL STATION 100.0 155.0
34-21-52 98-50-04 //KCBI 90.9
Its primary KCBI once had a SW station in Dallas. KCBK is the only
other KS/OK of more than peanut power except for KANU Lawrence and
this was certainly not an NPR station (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. FM DX: DXMAP shows sporadic E reaching OK, but as often
happens I`m getting instead mostly tropo extending into far reaches of
OK, north TX and even LA, KXKS-FM 93.7 Shreveport, July 17 at
1554/1816+ UT, blocking Es if any. Again 2026-2108 UT now some Es
making it from the east, including WBJC 91.5 Baltimore MD. Details of
all this yet to be compiled (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) Viz.:

** U S A. Monday July 17, DXMAPs show some sporadic E FM DX reaching
OK, so out to the car in the not yet too hot garage, on the Nissan
Sentra 2004 stock caradio with fender vertical antenna only, so no
antenna manipulation but disfavoring horizontal-only stations, if any;
all logs in real time with my own ears, one frequency at a time, no
RDS capability, no recording, no internet for stream comparisons; but
research later from my scribbled notes, mainly the excellent WTFDA FM
Database, also in general searching if needed.

All times strictly UT! Numbers just before geo coordinates are kW ERP
and antenna height above average terrain in meters. Identical horiz
and vert figures, u.o.s. Last figures are distances in km/stmi
city-to-city so approx., not site-to-city, from distancefromto.net.
Showing distance does not necessarily make a log more definite, but
FYI. 

I do not count stations, states or anything, what`s `new` or not, and
am not in a competition. Each DX log I view as a potential learning
experience. Clarifications, correxions welcome. All times strictly UT!
In four sessions, 1554-1640, 1658-1720, 1759-1817, 2026-2108.

As happens too often, instead of Es in the ~1000 mile range, I`m
getting tropo from no further than Shreveport, but still plenty of DX!
No Es until the fourth session, and only one definite log at the end
of this report, from WBJC 91.5 Baltimore.

Along the way I have noted some OK-area stations which are in MONO.
Altho there is a field, MODE, for this in the WTFDA FM Database, it`s
often missing. This and misc. other info should update the FMDB if
editors take note of my logs:

93.7 at 1554, song in Spanish: can`t be KSPI Stillwater, something has

Krum is a town on edge of The Metroplex, N of Ft Worth, just W of
Denton where I35 remerges E/W into one northward; better known as

Here maybe it connote Norteñ@. I think Don Cheto is on a national net

94.5 at 1555, AC (469), 1556 Kroger ad; 1600 ``Majic 94-5``. Foolishly

98.3 at 1614, ``My Country`` CCI to KBOC; plug ``35-South Show``
Friday on station. Pratt KS ad. 1638 Hays KS ad. A bit far from Hays
for semi-local right over the OK border, but site is further north and
it`s the only KS full-power on 98.3. Mere translator K252EY Concordia

101.5 at 1634, not our nearby Okeene OK in Spanish religious, rather
commercial en ``101.5 y 93.9``, ads, Estrellas Jalisco, ``La
Mexicana``, Wendy`s in English, Spanish music; not TX but KS:

This is a rather convoluted situation; WTFDA info for 101.5 I heard:

Well, 101.5 is NOT silent any more. I`m sure they jointly IDed with
93.9, not 92.9, so that would be as listed but unheard:
KZRD 93.9 DODGE CITY KS Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA MEXICANA 100.0
246.0 37-55-56 100-19-02 // KSMM 101.5
The trouble is, KMML originator? Is on 102.1 NOT 92.9, also unheard:
KMML 102.1 CIMARRON KS Spanish REGIONAL MEXICAN LA MEXICANA 40.0 166.0
37-46-48 100-27-38 //KSMM 101.5
The ONLY 92.9 in KS is unrelated, English, Country, in Osage City, but
with suspicious call KMXN! All per WTFDA; FCC, R-L not checked.

91.7 at 1637, note that near-local KOSU OKC, is MONO and presumably
all-daytime during public radio/NPR talk; $tereo all-night with `The
Spy` music. ~83/50 --- 1640-1658 I take a break.

93.7 at 1700 ID ``KXKS-FM, Shreveport-Bossier, Townsquare Media``, has

104.5 at 1809, normally dominant Mooreland/Woodward gospel huxter has
CCI, mention 42nd Street, ads for StevensSolutions.biz, holyaroma.com
https://www.stephenssolutions.biz/ is the only spelling that worx,
about digital marketing? Own website with broken linx! and no physical
location. holyaroma.com, really weird, sells frankincense imported
from Dhafar, Oman; myrrh from Somalia; amber from Lithuania; ``dragon
blood`` from Socotra Island, Yemen. As oil, resin or powder. Phone
country code 668 which = Thailand; if it were area code, somewhere in
Mexico. This also seems religious, but no fits in KS or OK. I am
tempted to think it`s this low-power 2.5 kW, not far from Shreveport
LA as definitely earlier, opening have moved on from The Metroplex:

93.5 at 1816, Ellis County Rodeo. It so happens that there are Ellis
counties in OK, TX, KS! No 93.5 fits for OK: Gage/Shattuck; TX:

from Hays in Ellis County, Kansas, as also ``My Country``, i.e.:

Time for a break but keeping an eye on DXMAPs, sporadic E again
supposedly reaching OK and by midafternoon maybe the tropo will have
further abated; resuming at 2026 now in the hot garaged car:

94.5 at 2027, unID local weather from somewhere but without any local

94.1 at 2028, Es? CCI here too, ad mentions ``wa-wa``. 2030 an Audacy
[not Odyssey!] station call like WYVA but can`t find anything even
similar; talk. Audacy provides no quick-ref station list, but top
searches go to WIP Philadelphia, sports; some others are musical.

106.1 at 2044, CCI, ``I-24 and Arkansas River``. 106.1 I would assume
Tulsa and the Ark. River goes thru there, but no known hwy 24, state,
US or Interstate. I-24 runs SE from IL, never crossing the Ark. River.
The only possible correlation but without any 106.1 would be US 24
circa Buena Vista CO and the headwaters of that great river. BTW, they
insist on pronouncing it BEW-nuh, VISS-tuh.

** U S A. 96.7, July 19 at 2019 UT as I am driving away on an errand
and not expecting any DX at temp 97F, caradio happens to be tuned here
to a strong steady station, plugs AdAstraradio.com for weather,
``border to border``; mentions `MPK`? Country music and 2028 ``Real
Country``; 2036 ad for something in nearby Hoisington. Gone by 2100.
Quite a grandiose name for a Kansas group of ``hometown`` stations
including this one on 96.7, but must have changed format:
KMPK 96.7 MCPHERSON KS ADULT CONTEMPORARY MIX 96.7 6.0 75.0 38-20-30
97-40-12     3140

95.3 also has a bigsig capturing frequency from KOKC OKC translator,
July 19 at 2030, Mytownmedia.com with news about Kansas. Website has
all-important hyphen, otherwise would have to pay $8K+ for site. Among
many stations classified by format and live-linked found this one on
95.3: https://mytown-media.com/listen-live/news-talk/ i.e.
KWKN The Cowboy, ``Hays``. The group`s towns may not match city of
license; they even put 98.3 Kiowa in ``Wichita``!

But there is one other on 95.3,

likely in this opening

** U S A. DTV Tropo DX bandscan, July 19 around 0530 UT, too late to
explore in detail: BAD signals on many `open` channels and some
`closed` *channels have become BAD due to DX QRM: 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, 17,
20, 21, *23, *29, 31, 32, 34, 35, 36. Whenever there is anything on 6
into my highband VHF antenna toward OKC, it`s got to be KBSD
Ensign/Dodge City KS. 17 presumably local K17JN-D Enid still
underpowered and not decoding, regardless of DX. 7, KOCO OKC for ABC
often no decode either regardless of DX. Only these in Tulsa market do
decode: 11 KOED, 22-KOKI, 28-ION. Strangely, no signal from 26-KOTV.

Also some tropo next morning, 1524 UT July 19: BAD sigs on RF 10, 11,
26. Bootup time for Zenith STB DTV converter varies: this time it took
22 seconds for Blue eye to show after turn-on from Red eye; and
another 6 seconds to kick in as seen on screen (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, July 18 at 0636, R. Vanuatu, YL in Bislama with
service announcements, S9/+10. There every night and not always
relogged; until it isn`t (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 11500-11520, July 14 at 0646, strong multipitch wideband
whine, but goes off before I can explore it further; maybe centered at
11510. Rather like multicarrier often heard in daytime circa 17450.
What are those?? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
