Per mwlist this is surely the 50 kW IRIB external service in Azeri, 50 kW from Jolfa, which is normally off the air 2020-0120, but this is Ramadan, so now it`s all-night as in WRTH showing for // 7230 during March, and which is also audible with same on 7230.006+. There is a variety of music, soft talk, and the very pleasant soft VIRI interval signal, periodically such as at 0009, 0017 March 5. At latter time, also some pulsing QRM, surely not jamming (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** JAPAN. 15280, Feb 27 at 0727 S6/S7 music, 0730 Japanese; NHK scheduled 0655-0950; also a Sound of Hope channel, so subject to CNR1 jamming but none of that now (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KOREA NORTH. 11635, March 2 at 0750, choral music at S9, nothing listed now in Aoki, EiBi, or HFCC. 0800 VOK IS, Russian? announcement, heavy Korean accent, and anthem, but also CCI from something else; and ACI from 11640 which would be CRI in Cantonese.

Not hearing the 810.6v mystery lately (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2284) UNIDENTIFIED. 1549.82, Feb 28 at 0704 UT, JBA carrier hetting 1550.00 stations, weaker than 810.56 at this time. XEREL? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 1549.82, March 1 at 0725 UT, JBA carrier making het with 1550s, suspected XEREL. Earlier on Feb 28 I contacted Mike Jeziorski in Querétaro: ``Mike, I`ve been getting a carrier late at night on about 1549.82. Suspect it`s XEREL in Morelia - could you check that out? I`ve been hearing it direct and on the Qro KiwiSDR - are you involved in that? 73, Glenn Hauser, Enid OK, USA``. Reply: Re: 1549.82 signal, Mike Jeziorski, To me · Sat, Mar 1 at 4:07 AM ``Hi Glenn, Thanks for your note. Tonight I started investigating my archived TOH recordings from the past few days, when my W6LVP loop was pointed directly to favor Morelia (142 km/88 mi). Here's what I know so far: I also see a carrier at 1549.822. Occasionally its amplitude rivals signals clustered around 1550, where I typically hear non-IDer WPFC {Bâton Rouge LA} or the Florida stations at night. I had not heard anything from XEREL since April of 2024. However, on my recordings this week from Feb. 26, at 0059 UTC I hear a station giving the slogan "Radio Pública de Michoacán". That matches the location of XEREL, but would be a rebranding. The 1549.822 carrier was present but not strong when I heard that audio. During my few years since returning to DX, XEREL has varied between weak and regularly heard. I can't say that not hearing them in almost a year means they have been off or weak, but they are far closer to me than anyone else on 1550. At the TOH around 1300 UTC, when Louisiana and Florida are in full sunlight but my path to Morelia is in darkness, I can sometimes see a signal on the offset, but not a strong one. I have not gotten audio at that time. The Kiwi currently listed in the state of Querétaro is in San Juan del Río and is hosted by DXer René Chávez. My Kiwi is listed in Juriquilla, Querétaro, but has been out of commission for a couple of weeks due to a problem with the splitter/combiner I use. I will keep looking into this. 73 Mike Jeziorski`` ``Mike, Excellent, just the kind of info I am seeking. It certainly seems like XEREL by elimination, doesn`t it? Maybe you can also get a bearing on it with the loop or even a portable with ferrite if there is enough signal isolated. Look forward to your further research. 73, Glenn`` ``Hi Glenn, Thanks. I don't believe in process of elimination with Mexican stations -- there are too many unknowns. For one thing, if XEREL is barely readable for me just up the road, are they really getting out to Oklahoma? But part of the research will be figuring out when the offset carrier first showed up on my recordings. I don't think the W6LVP loop is precise enough to trust bearings, except perhaps nulls. 73 Mike`` ``Mike, OK. By getting a bearing I meant by nulling 90 degrees away... 73, Glenn`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 1549.82, March 3 at 0547, JBA carrier still perceptible probably from XEREL, Morelia, Michoacán (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 6935 AM, March 2 at 0341, S9/+10 but hardly any modulation audible in noise level. A few logs here as Boat Anchor Radio: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141683.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 9920 USB, March 2 at 0357, S8/S9 music, would take for discovering a licensed NF if it were not in SSB; Soon YL ID as Mix Radio International, still at 0417 but off by 0430. Then I see it had been heard as early as 0142 first on 9907, and off at 0416(?) per: https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,141672.0.html (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. 11529.9, March 3 at 1545, not even a JBA carrier from the pirate, ex-Hikari FM, nor have I perceived it for several days in random day and night chex. Last log I see was from Rick Barton, AZ on Feb 22. Anyone heard it since or from now on? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NORTH AMERICA. Re 11529.9, ex-Hikari FM missing lately, Ron Howard replies: ``Hi Glenn - Here is the quick reply from Ivan, who operates the station. Ron (Monterey, Calif.) "Sorry about the blackout, the shortwave transmitter is not doing great and I took it down for investigation. There are harmonics that might interfere a little with other stations if my signal is strong. They are not bad but at this point I have figured out how to design it differently and avoid class D modulators. I am also trying to get into California right now on 1710 khz and it is difficult to run two transmitters at a time. There is some success though so I think keep a lookout on 1710, hopefully I will be able to get a signal into your area. Right now it is there but it is weak and XEPE [Tecate, Baja California, Mexico]{1700} is a problem. I plan on rebuilding the shortwave transmitter entirely or at least looking at the schematic and seeing if there are any shortcomings that need to be fixed. I am switching over to class G modulators, they require no filters and have better audio. They are slightly less efficient and require multiple power supplies or DC converters. Hopefully I can get everything working properly soon. Very Best Regards, Ivan" (via Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 1390, March 5 at 0747 UT, dead air at S9+65 from my nearest local KCRC Enid, instead of stupid sports talk; same of course on its sibling, 1640 KZLS, S9+45. Both finally enliven at 0800. Nothing else can be heard under 1390 without nulling, inconvenient at this late hour, but else is on 1640, heard 914 area code, but must have been on a network as that`s Westchester County north of NYC, no 1640 stations (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. For the record, no changes in the local pirate/Part 15 radio scene in Enid this week, checked Feb 28 around 2045 UT: 95.1 open carrier in $tereo is still on in downtown, formerly music accompanying the `Tree of Lights` for Xmas. 1670 AM, Feb 28 around 2045 UT, Virtual DJ Radio relay, still audible weakly around downtown. 101.7 FM mono, additional dead air around downtown Enid only, presumably an RF feeder in a parked car depleting its power supply to feed nothing. Broadway Tower transmitters are still OFF, 91.1 KKRD, and 105.5 K288FX (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 95.1, March 5 at 2040, undermodulated $tereo country music from Part 15 in downtown Enid, normally dead air, and resumes that by next check 2118 (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 95.7, March 5 at 2035 UT, dead air from KXLS ``Lahoma`` = Enid market, but remodulating at 2042 check; the same cluster providing DA on 1390/1640 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PHILIPPINES.

So with an extra hour 1930-2030 to previously scheduled. I tuned in yesterday (26 Feb) and, yes, the 1730 broadcast is still on air until 2030 UTC. Very good reception on 12120 kHz and 15190 kHz, especially at first (9925 kHz much weaker here). They still announced just 1730-1930, together with the frequencies, at sign on, though (anyone noticed if their 0200-0330 transmission has also been lengthened?) 73 Alan Pennington, Lowe HF-225 Europa, Wellbrook ALA 1530 loop, Caversham, UK, Feb 27`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2284) ** PUERTO RICO. 391 MCW kHz, March 5 at 0732 UT, DDP, ND beacon heard for first time since Dec 27 altho there was a carrier on Jan 11.

Then in SSB mode tune up or down in minimal steps till you hear the same pitch the main carrier makes, reconfirm by punching up the main frequency for a match, and that is where the off-frequency carrier is (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7636.0, March 4 at 0735, open carrier except for clix at rate of one per second, like a timesignal, but no minute-markers, the clix can be detected out to 7621/7647 approx. Same thing as recently heard around 9236, Feb 26 at 0737, q.v. What are these? Nothing like this on either frequency in Klingenfuß 2022 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 11530.0, March 1 at 0602, S6/S7 talk, maybe English? Of course I`m checking for the pirate formerly known as Hikari FM, but it was always circa 11529.9 so probably not this. Could be Denge Gel via Armenia and/or Turkish jammer, one of many possible landings in the 11.5s, per EiBi, not Aoki. But seems to go off at 0605* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 15022 USB, March 3 at 1541, 2-way in Spanish JBA, many ``cambio``s; Klingenfuß 2022 shows AMS for this frequency, no further details, = aeronautical mobile service (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 17525, March 5 at 1623, JBA S5/S4 music and talk; could it be WMLK in the morning instead of afternoon? No, it`s now on 15150, ID in passing, only S7/9+20 in degraded propagation. Aoki lax any WMLK entries! EiBi has 15150 & 9275 only. Has WMLK deliberately stopped 17525? It`s in HFCC for B24 thru March 30, 2025; and nothing else listed on 17525 except KSDA at 00-01. So what`s this? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 17665, March 4 at 1549, S5/S7 open carrier and quickly off*. Probably a test/warmup frequency, such as USAGM prior to some 1600 broadcast on another nearby frequency, which might interfere with another station/site before 1600, like Grimesland, e.g. Portuguese from 1700 on 17655 or French from 1900 on 17700. USAGM has a roster of authorized test frequencies, and wish I could see the current list. This one is a good choice for that, as absolutely nothing is scheduled on 17665 anywhen in B24 per HFCC, EiBi and Aoki (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) 80-METER HAM CONTESTERS, with QRZ.com info.
