already at next check 2141. Could be finished, or another temporary

down a bit in USB (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Apr 24 at 2209, I can almost imagine a
JJBBA RC direct from LRA36. This is Wednesday but am checking now

its founder Dario Monferini: ``[playdx2019] TIPS da Vercelli 15476USB

``Shortages
Cuba: the old relationship between rationing and totalitarianism
At the root of rationing in Cuba is the system's productive incapacity
and its control over its people.
Dimas Castellanos, La Habana, 22 Abr 2024 - 21:22 CEST

On Monday, April 15, Cuba's Conference of Catholic Bishops issued a
message asking the faithful to pray for "mothers who are struggling to
feed their children," and stated that "our dear homeland is going
through very difficult times," recognizing that "Cubans are suffering,
crying, and lack the essentials."

The issue brings us back to the "supply" book, a government euphemism
for its rationing of basic groceries. Since only what is produced can
be distributed, since the implementation of rationing the quantity and
quality of the items regulated have been dwindling, and delivery times
have increased. 

When rationing was first implemented, Cubans received beef, chicken,
oil, butter, condensed milk, toilet paper, coffee, rice, grain, and
industrial products, thanks to Soviet subsidies. Currently the monthly
distribution consists of seven pounds of rice (3.2 kilograms), four
pounds of sugar, half a liter of soybean oil, a pack of 115 grams of
"mixed coffee" (coffee with peas does not qualify as coffee, according
to the International Coffee Organization, when the mixture is more
than 5%; in Cuba it is 50%), five eggs, ten ounces of beans, and one
pound of chicken...``

AP: Mali’s junta bans the media from reporting on political activities
in a deepening crackdown

BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — In a deepening crackdown, Mali’s ruling junta on
Thursday banned the media from reporting on activities of political
parties and associations, a day after suspending all political
activities in the country until further notice.
The order, issued by Mali’s high authority for communication, was
distributed on social media. The notice said it applied to all forms
of the media, including television, radio, online and print
newspapers. […]

** OKLAHOMA. 27224.46 approx., Apr 21 at 0031, S9+30 and good
amplitude modulation, Enid CB pirate relay of their only? favorite
station, // 105.5 K288FX, translator of FM 88.9 KYLV ``Kay-Love`` OKC.
Found here after first checking original channel, 27184.8 where it was
heard from 0028 but with non-FM distortion; much stronger S9+20 on
shortwire than loop. Then I find same // on third frequency,
27264.15~. This triad suggests that the upper and lower ones be spurs
of the middle one, as they are both slightly under 40 kHz away within
margin of error. Another check however at 0210 finds it primarily on
27184.8 distorted, too much QRM on 27225 and unheard around 27264.
Strange. Next check at 1437 Apr 21: 27184.8 is S9 // 105.5, but
27224.5 is stronger S9+5. Nothing around 27265 or 27145, not even skip

** OKLAHOMA [non]. A split-second shot of a caradio dial animated
during `The Simpsons` on Fox UT Apr 22 clearly displayed KRIG 99.1 -
what are the legal risks of using a real radio call in fixion? FCC FM
Query shows KRIG-FM exists in Nowata OK, but on 104.9, and furthermore
has no translator on 99.1 or anywhere. Does that get them off the
hook, not connecting it to a real frequency? Or does no one care? Or
would a station even welcome the free publicity? Altho hardly anyone
but me would follow up to seek it out really. KRIG is part of a
Bartlesville-based cluster. I`ve asked the GM for his reaxion. Already
had a brush with fame:
https://www.bartlesvilleradio.com/pages/krig-104-9-fm
``KRIG Radio is the featured radio station in the movie “Possums,”
created with Mac Davis and Coach Barry Switzer``

** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, Apr 19 at 1528, S3 roar of defective
transmitter. Wolfgang Bueschel is suggesting this could really be
Iranian jamming of the opposition`s Yemen relay, but I don`t think so.
Analyzing the ``audio strings``, if multiples of 60 Hz apart, would be
from Saudi, only ME country with 60 Hz power; if multiples of 50 Hz,
from elsewhere such as Iran 
https://www.wpowerproducts.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/global-voltage-frequency-chart.pdf
At 1730 Apr 18 he had strings at 120 Hz separations, which means not
Iran, rather Sa`udi Arabia with 60 Hz. All peripheral countries on the
Peninsula, such as Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, UAE are 50 Hz.

On 11935 I never hear any mixture of program audio and roar, always
one or the other, but wb says: ``On April 19 at 05.20 UT heard both -

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2239 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday April 20 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S9/+10 into Peoria SDR, and
NOT on // 7730! Don`t you believe the long-wrong, WRMI System F
redsked!

Also confirmed UT Saturday April 20 from just before 0400 on WTWW
5085, S9+20 into Peoria SDR.

Also confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1450 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 6160.001, S9+5 into UTwente, no QRM. 

Also confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1730 on SW Gold Radio, Germany,
into Utwente, 3975.001, S9/+5 and 6160.000, S9+10.

Also confirmed Saturday April 20 after 1930 on WRN North America
webcast and WRMI webcast only.

Also confirmed Saturday April 20 at 1951 the 1930v on WA0RCR, 1860 AM,
MO, about 4 minutes into, so started late about 1947.

Regarding WOR on WRMI Sundays at 1030 UT: in B-season this had been at
1130 on 9955; first A-season sked moved it to 1030, and onto internet
only, 9955 not picking up until 1100. But now, as Wolfgang Bueschel
outpoints, the System B sked shows internet-only at 04-11 UT EXCEPT
weekends when 9955 supposedly stays on. On Saturday April 20 I
happened to awaken just after 1000 UT and indeed found 9955 on, S9+10
direct vs pulse jamming, but not with Frecuencia al Día in Spanish as
on sked, rather gospel huxter in English, sounds like TOMBS. So still
need to confirm what happen Sunday at 1030. If 9955 really permanesce
all night, there would be lots of unspecified WRN programming at 04-10
except RFI in Spanish at 05-06. WRN website still shows old B23 sked
from which one UT hour needs to be deducted:
https://www.encompass.tv/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/Encompass_WRN_North-America_B23.pdf

But version abottom this page had manually? made the changes:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1iDCSyjigmOz7KnnCJ5vU1e0iexexyaUO/view
as Alexander Miatlikov outpoints. I have not tried to compare whether
they be identical except for time shifts. Next:

Sunday April 21 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, S9/+15 into Argentine SDR where
it`s aimed, and no jamming audible. Direct at 0027, S9+20.

Here`s the truth about the alleged 1030 UT Sunday airing of WOR on
WRMI 9955: April 21 I record a sample at 1031-1032 -- WRMI is on, but
it`s TOMBS!!!! The Overcomer Ministry Brother Scare. Possibly WOR is
on the webcast only, still unchecked. Don`t you believe the WRMI

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2239 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
April 21 from 2000.7 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1322.995 kHz (not 918
nor 207), S9+5 into UTwente. There is very light CCI, sounds
Qur`anish, or maybe just SWAsianish? Presumably the one Iran station
on 1323, but trying 3 of the Kuwait SDRs, they are not getting it at
this hour. Tanzania 1323 is inactive. The only other European is
Romania`s minority service, which can certainly QRM us, but unlikely
Asianic nor on air this late; in Hungarian, German, et al.?

1323: WRTH print 2024 on page 592 has Akash Radio, Leeds, Leeds, UK,
but it has been removed from online mwlist. It was only 30 watts. But
could it be the CCI? Website still refers to DAB, 1323, even if
defunct there, as traditional identity. Seems it`s primarily Punjabi:
https://akashradioleeds.co.uk/about-us/

Would it do Qur`an? Maybe, Wikipedia: ``Today the majority of
Pakistani Punjabis follow Islam with a small Christian minority, and
less Sikh and Hindu populations, while the majority of Indian Punjabis
are either Sikhs or Hindus with a Muslim minority. Punjab is also the
birthplace of Sikhism and the movement Ahmadiyya.``

WOR 2239 also confirmed Sunday April 21 at 2135 the 2130 on SW Radio
Gold, Germany, 6159.994, S7/S8 and fading down into UTwente but with
RTTY ACI from plus side unless bandwidth reduced below 8 kHz. Also on
better 3975.001, S9/+10.

Also confirmed UT Monday April 22 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9+5/15 into
Querétaro SDR, let it play in background but noticed at 0053 has
dumped to music fill, maybe a bit earlier! Later I recheck the WOR
file sent to WRMI and find nothing wrong with it - like a long pause
which could have tripped a silence-sensor, if any. I hope this is not
happening to any other WRMI airings.

Also confirmed UT Monday April 22 from 0301.5 on Area 51 via WBCQ
6159.930, S9+20/10 into Georgia SDR with high storm noise level off
the SE USA coast. 

Also confirmed Monday April 22 from 1931 on SW Gold Radio, Germany,

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2239 monitoring: NOT confirmed UT
Tuesday April 23 at 0330 on WRMI 7780, as monitored direct and much
better via Qro. SDR. Our biweek of limbo is over. WOR was removed from
this timeslot on the skedgrid but continued to air on April 9 & 16,
instead of another of the ~three dozen weekly repeats of Wavescan ---
but this is not Wavescan, either! All music, from a live concert with
an applause break? No announcements unless something missed at the
very beginning. Sounds sorta Israeli, maybe Passover special? No outro
either, 0359 canned ID and 0400 over to TOMBS. 

Confirmed Tuesday April 23 at 1300 on WRMI 9955, S7/S8 direct atop
audible jamming. Seems like CCI from another? Per EiBi and Aoki,
nothing else ever on 9955; BTW, Aoki attempts to show all? WRMI
programming in time order. This time I make sure it plays past 1323
unlike earlier on 7780; yes, past the Vanuatu anthem. There are also
noise bursts exactly every bisecond, must be some new nearby device as
also detectable on other frequencies. Next:

** U S A [and non]. Pre-`AAAWWW` WBCQ check, Apr 19 at 2325 into NH
SDR: 3265 OFF. 5130.207 S7/S8 `ATATT`. 6159.930 S8/9+5 TOMBS moanin` &
groanin`. 7489.930 S9+10/20 FKB = note the offset match between 6 and
7 MHz channels, coincidence? 9330.000 S9+10/30 WLCS Portuguese.
Checking calibration of that rx on WWV 10000, reads less than 1 Hz
minus; but can hear RWM CW IDs off the side from 9996 at 2339. FKB
Radio Sermon Time = KB stands for Preacher Ken Buraczynski, so why
isn`t it PKB? 

5130 joins AAAWWW a bit late after theme started, 0000 UT Sat Apr 20.
Seems like a new show, starts by plugging WBCQ-FM 94.7 for country
music. Various repairs, tasks at station, including fixing the 98.3
translator antenna. Angela is remote on phone, guess back in Fla. 0029
mentions 3265 among current frequencies, and date 19 April YOOLF 2024.
So I check it again: yes, now on 3265.172, S7/S9 into NH. Rants about
the stupidity of war. 0047 blames Pres. Biden for everything; why took
so long? A screw comes out of his glasses, falling apart, hard to read
emails. Runs over into Turner time as usual. A few mins later I
recheck 3265.172 and it`s off again. He wants a bigtime customer for
that frequency; did it never occur that might have more interest if
same transmitter weren`t stuck on such a low frequency? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7490v), Sun Apr 21 at 2200, WBCQ webcast repeating the
latest `AAAWWW` of Apr 20, as filler of Available Time Slot; unneeded
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9330, Apr 22 at 1535, JBA carrier from WLCR via WBCQ.
Propagation depressed, yet 9980 WWCR remains inblasting S9+25. 9330
should be 500 kW, or 250? on 253 degree beam thisaway. 9395 WRMI is
also JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 3955, Sat Apr 20 at 1930 I`m late tuning in to the
once-a-month broadcast of `Uncle Bill`s Melting Pot`, now via Channel
292, Germany, somewhat better than // 6070. He makes it clear that his
dedication to SW prevents availablizing the program any other way. I
wonder if he would object if someone recorded it off SW and then
posted it online? At 1959 a few sex of heavy SAH overlap as Woofferton
came on slightly before 2000 with KBS World Radio in German, a rather
stronger signal, than C292 which then turned off (Glenn Hauser, OK,

** U S A [non]. Re 3955, UBMP via Ch 292, Apr 20 at 1930 - that was

** U S A. 12050, Apr 22 at 1532, still 1755, 1820, NO signal from WEWN
Spanish. Prop depressed but ought to be something. WWCR 12160 at
similar distance remains blasting S9+30 at my first check. Wonder
what`s wrong? 12050 supposed to start at 1400 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 12050, April 23 at 0419, Spanish hymn, S9+5/10 into

PHILIPPINES. Violating Separation of Church and State. USAGM thus
opens itself to demands for airtime by any and every non-RCC gospel
huxter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6816-6874 approx., April 20 at 0648, range of OTH radar
clickery, S9+32 double peak circa 6833 & 6852 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15001.00, Apr 21 at 0051, open carrier INTRUDER, much
stronger than WWVH. Whatzit? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15165, Apr 21 at 1445, S9+20 open carrier with vertical
flutter and horizontal Doppler flutter. Only entry in Aoki & EiBi is
VOA Mandarin via Thailand + jamming at 1300-1400 only. Presumably one
of those transmitters did not get offturned at 1400. In fact, 15165 is
among numerous VOA test frequencies, available the other 23 hours per
day from any site, in this case surely not Grimesland (Glenn Hauser,
