Best wishes and 73, Alan Roe ** ASCENSION. 6135, Apr 7 at 0558, presumed Hausa as BBC scheduled 0529-0600, 125 kW at 65 degrees. Similar signal on 6195, which is ENC at 250 kW, 65 degrees to CIRAF 46SE in Kau, per HFCC. What that really is, per EiBi: R. Ndarason International targeting Chad in Kanuri. That would be 47NW, while 46SE = Nigeria (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 11780, April 3 at 0148, RNA with hyperenthusiastic coverage of a stupid ballgame; don`t hear any crowd noise, so is this live or a recap. Rather late at night to be live. Keeps mentioning Botafogo, which is the big ``fireboot`` Rio soccer team. This keeps going past 0200 instead of new token English/Spanish 0150-0200 which we did hear the previous two nights. So now we know how serious they were about that! Richard Langley also reports: ``Based on a few words I heard/translated, perhaps it was Chile's Universidad de Chile against Brazil's Botafogo at National Stadium in Santiago, Chile for a Copa Libertadores Group A soccer match. And off at 0208 UT. Too bad if you wanted to listen to the whole game on SW`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2289) ** BRAZIL. 11780, April 4 at 0147, checking RNA via local ``Brasila`` SDR, again tonight no sign of English/Spanish, but another stupid ballgame well past 0200, without apology. Richard Langley also observes: ``And tonight (4 April UTC), I'm hearing what is presumably Deportivo Táchira (Venezuela) vs. Flamengo (Brazil). So, again no English/Spanish. Not sure how long these cup matches are going on at least with Brazilian teams. Looks like after tonight, they take a break until 8 April (local date) according to the CONMEBOL Libertadores schedule. Wikipedia tells us "The CONMEBOL Libertadores, also known as Copa Libertadores de América is an annual continental club football competition organized by CONMEBOL since 1960." And "The tournament is named after the Libertadores (Spanish and Portuguese for liberators), the leaders of the Latin American wars of independence." 11780 kHz stayed on the air past the end of the game tonight. Was still on at 0230 UT -- Richard Langley`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, April 5 at 0150 into Brasila SDR, the token English segment from RNB is back instead of SBG preëmptions, but it`s a repeat of the first airing on April 1, part 1 of the interview about Pará. Note IDs for this as RNB, i.e. via RNA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, April 6 at 0147 into Brasila SDR, only S7/S9, RNA playing music until 0200, NO RNB English/Spanish and no sports and no explanation. Is it done for, or just when they get around to it? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 6180 & 11780, now we have more details about RNB English & Spanish: ``Rádio Nacional da Amazônia Launches Spanish and English Programs - On March 31, 2025, Rádio Nacional da Amazônia took an important step in its programming by introducing an International Service aimed at listeners from other countries who follow the station through its shortwave broadcasts. With a duration of 10 minutes, the program is divided as follows: five minutes in English, followed by five minutes in Spanish. It is broadcast Monday through Friday, from 10:50 PM to 11:00 PM Brasília time — equivalent to 01:50 AM to 02:00 AM Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) — on frequencies of 6,180 kHz (49-meter band) and 11,780 kHz (25-meter band). On days when sports are broadcast, the program will not air. The production and presentation are led by journalist Ana Pimenta. According to Sérgio Dória Partamian from the DX Clube do Brasil, “this is a commendable initiative, as the station, which is primarily domestic in nature, focuses mainly on serving the Brazilian audience, especially the isolated communities in the Amazon.” However, “by reserving a space, albeit a short one, for international listeners, Rádio Nacional da Amazônia not only expands its reach but also strengthens cultural ties with neighboring nations and even with more distant countries that express interest and appreciation for Brazilian culture,” Partamian states. For the DX Clube do Brasil, this initiative reinforces the value of shortwave radio as a means of communication capable of crossing borders, delivering information and entertainment to regions where access to the internet and other media is still limited.

Voice-over translation but the underguese is JBA. 0154 ID in English, Portuguese, same in Spanish; over at 0158 for full ID in PP. Is this a different episode than the first one a week ago? I did not check for it UT Mon Apr 7 after info that this would be on M-F only = UT Tue-Sat, minus any stupid ballgame pre-emptions (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** BRAZIL. 11780, April 9 at 0150 tune-in via local ``Brasila`` SDR, but only S8/9+5, RNB English already underway, still about Pará, Belém tourism, open air market, museums, something this November. Voice-under remains audible. 0154 outro English, switch to Spanish as part 4 of this subject, interview with the Secretary of Culture. 0158 closing in Portuguese, and s/off RNA on 11780 & 6180, referring to web and 980, as this stays on the air a bit more starting `Madrugada Nacional` show, but promoting another show at 8 am. ``Glenn --- re Rádio Nacional's English/Spanish segment. Monday (Tuesday UT) was not a repeat of the prior week. This was an interview with a black actress and filmmaker from the state of Pará. Unfortunately I could not make out her name. I find these segments to be interesting and I hope they lead to more and longer form segments à la RadioBrás.

This is one of countless 500 kW, 308 degree beams for Europe from Urumqi, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide against Uyghurs and other Moslems. 15575 KBSWR, direct from Korea South is JBA despite targeting us, and also with Doppler flutter. WWV reports: ``The estimated planetary K-index at 1500 UTC on 06 April was 3.33. Space weather for the past 24 hours has been minor. Geomagnetic storms reaching the G1 level occurred.

Not a matter of propagation from Europe, as Romania is OK S7/S9 on 11620. Now what? O, 11880 is missing from EiBi by frequency; but still in EiBi by time as via G-w = Great Britain Woofferton. Missing from both versions of KBSWR`s own A25 schedule (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MALI. 11975 // 13630, April 9 at 2205, French both S7/S9, CRI at 2130-2230  via Bamako aimed diversely: 20 degrees to CIRAF 37 = MW corner of Africa; and 111 degrees to CIRAF 53 = Madagascar & mainland, respectively per HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 770, April 7 at 0607, YL in Spanish, instead of KKOB or WABC.

This was often a problem before the quadriweek hiatus. Perhaps no one minds the SW store after midnight (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NEW ZEALAND. 17675, April 4 at 0547, RNZP is VG S9/+15; not only the only station on this band, but virtually nothing to be heard on the 15 and 13 MHz bands!

The real WOFM is on 89.1 but in Alcoa TN with Air 1, no known connexion to Oasis Network originating with KNYD 90.5 Tulsa, here via Enid translator K206CA. This local quality signal was surely not DX from TN altho possible by Es if K206CA were off. There is also a Canton in OK with no stations (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** OKLAHOMA. 92.1, April 4 at 2045 UT on caradio, ``Heart & Soul 92.1 and 1140 AM``, translator K221FQ in OKC of KRMP 1140, fairly audible tho weaker than 95.3 KOKC translator.

This 0530 broadcast replaces the 0630 on 11930 in B24 season, which also came in well despite Cuban jamming against nothing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, April 3 at 2130 check, RNE 15500 for NAm is still OFF, but 15390 for Af is back on JBA; 17715 SAm and 15520 ME are sufficient but no English on Thursdays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2289) ** SPAIN. 15500, Friday April 4 at 2158 and later, token English from SNR is *still* absent from its new NAm frequency, but from 2200 audible on 15520 for ME and S8+10 equally sufficient 17715 for S America. Also detectable on 15390 for Africa. Something`s notright at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15389.992, Saturday April 5 at 2225, REE check into Maryland SDR: S4/S5, quite unusually, best signal on the frequency for Africa! 15500 for NAm STILL AWOL. Something`s never nominal at Noblejas. 15520 for ME only a trace, not sure if it`s something else. 17715.012 for SAm at S3/S5. No English today, of course. I don`t usually bother with precise frequencies for REE as they are within 10 Hz (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, April 7 at 1904, still NO signal from Noblejas REE to N America; but 17715 to SAm is S7/S9; 15520 ME JBA; 15390 Af JBA carrier. At 2214 check for token English on Mon, 15520 is now S9/+20, much better than 17715 S8/S9, and 15390 S6/S9. Could SNR have moved 15500 to another fq for NAm? A number of alternates are in HFCC for A25, we need to check at least cursorily: 9690 & 17855, which of course have been used in previous seasons; and 15110 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500, April 8 at 2232 check, REE frequency to N America is finally back on the air, but if it`s Tuesday there must be no English at 2200. Into Illinois SDR S8/9+10, better than 15520 for ME, and JBA 15390, 17715. Into Maryland SDR, 15500 is S9+20, 15520 S9+10, 15390 S7/S9, 17715 S5/S7. Now, how about M/W/F? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN [and non]. 17715, April 9 at 2115, this RNE is the OSOB direct at S9+30/40 except for JBA carrier from NZ 17675.

Undermod and fluxuating. Same into Maryland SDR, which also has ACI from 11780 Brasil. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 7275, April 6 at 0322, VOT not off the air, but INTRUDING into American hamband, awry at Ankara; S9+30/40 with Turkish music, modulation OK now, and VP on 6165 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 9875.005+, Sun Apr 6 at 2046, VOT English eastward rates S9+25/30 backward into UTwente, with `Pulse of Turkey`s Foreign Policy` until 2052 music; 2056 `Letterbox`, she says it`s a bit short, email has been slow. I can never catch full names of writers, but at least countries: 1) W Bengal, India. 2) W Sussex, England. 3) Chris, Canada. 4) Lithuania. 5) Pakistan. 2107 fill with closing folk song, tune-out. So repeats if on air should start at 2226, Monday 0356. Modulation fading may be caused by AMSynch tuning at UTw as it seems OK in regular AM mode. 11785.007+, Sun Apr 6 at *2201, cuts on late with olds in progress, S9+50 into UTwente. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler. Not monitored again until 2253 s/off as if 1230 on 17620: something`s always awry at Ankara; 2254 IS, 2256 restart IS until 2258*. Traditionally includes extraneous German IDs after 2256 whether or not extraneous German broadcast follow, but my attention lapsed (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785, April 7 at 2213 check, VOT English not off the air, S9/+20 direct but noisy. Also not on the air after 2256 in German (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.006-, April 9 at 2200, VOT not off the air, timesignal 2 sex late compared to WWV, s/on English as if it`s 1230 on 17620, awry at Ankara, S7/S9 and noisy not really solid. At 2221 into UTwente when measured, S9/+10, still unsolid. 2254 s/off, 2255 first notes of IS only one sesquitime before chop, no finesse, uncovering rapid clickery QRM of some sort.

USAGM situation, as of April 4, from a reliable source: OCB may resume broadcasting SW from Greenville to Cuba, but nothing else on the air, with those in overall charge of engineering and transmission dismissed. It`s unlikely that the previous arrangement could be resumed in any reasonable length of time even if authorized. The Tajikistan relays ended on April 1, also the FEBC Seoul and Jeju MW transmitters, and the Djibouti 1431 kHz relay. These were funded on a quarterly basis and DOGE would not allow them for another quarter. RFA transmissions via the two SW sites of R Taiwan International have continued; as have Radio Liberty Russian via Radio Baltic Waves, Lithuania on 1386 kHz, but we don`t know for how much longer. WRMI has on schedule R. Liberty in Russian on 15770 with System K, Mon-Sat at 0400-0430, or is it -0500? per sked, with something called Voice of Russia, Sundays at 0400-0430.

Also confirmed Saturday April 5 at 1430 on SW Radio, Germany, 6160.001+, S8/S9 into UTwente with no CCI or ACI but something much weaker on 6155, probably CRI Kashgar in Russian.

Propagation? Altho 12160 WWCR is blasting, other 9 MHz UStations are also very weak to JBA carriers, 9395, 9330, 9265 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9839-9853 approx., peaking circa 9848 at S9+15, April 4 at 1540, extremely distorted talk, matching 9930 WTWW with TOMBS on another receiver, not matching 9980 WWCR TOMBS, never synchronized (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 10003, April 4 at 2204, scratchy spur from 9930 WTWW which hits S9+60; matches the TOMBS modulation peaks on a second receiver, not the TOMBS mod on 9980 WWCR which is also on but never synchronized. Like my previous obs on the lower side of 9930, i.e. plus/minus very roughly 80 kHz; except the high side is more diffuse. It can also be heard bothering 9955 WRMI, during undermodulated WOR. 10003 also threatens WWV. An hour later George and I discussed these; he could not hear the spurs, and by now they were weaker for me. Unfortunately, Ted kept the WTWW spectrum analyzer. 9930 also flanked by the stable spurcarriers circa 9917 & 9943, not such a problem for neighbors (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7780, April 3 at 0632, this WRMI-13 is OFF. and at 0635, so is 5010 WRMI-14. All others nominal. These would both normally be on TOMBS at this hour: tech problems, or reduxion in TOMBS $$/hours? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2289) ** U S A. 7780, April 4 at 0553, this WRMI is off again despite sked, while a buzzy sound surrounds 7778. At 0558 check, 5010 WRMI is also off again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7780 at 0631 April 5, WRMI-13 is off again vs some noise circa 7778; and at 0635 check, 5010 WRMI-14 is also off. Apparently a schedule change, not anomaly, despite no updating to skedgrid showing both until 1500*. And not a transmitter problem, as both 7780 & 5010 are heard normally earlier in evenings (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 7780 & 5010, April 6 at 0630, these WRMIs are OFF again, as if deliberately contrary to own sked (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Apr 4 at 2350 into NH SDR: 3265, 5130 OFF. 6160 algo VP S6/7, else with dittering QRM. 7489.925, S9+15/20 with FKB. 9330 only S7/9+15 with music. As usual, 5130- autocutson at *2355 with IS & ID loop, S9+10, but drops to S7 a few times, from transmission or reception?

They cut on and off with modulation peaks, JBA at the edges but quite strong closest to 15150. Something`s very busted at Bethel`s new 300 kW transmitter (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2289) ** U S A. 15150, April 4 at 1543, WMLK is off, unlike yesterday. Could they be working on fixing the galaxy of spurs every 4 kHz we heard yesterday? Fat chance, and it`s not even Sabbath yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9265, April 5 at 0622, WINB is still on with gospel huxter, more TOMBS? Not // 5850 WRMI. At 0632 it`s ``Walking in Simplicity`` with Bro. Steven. Anomaly or deliberate extension? Yet another station with a program schedule they don`t keep up to date with what axually airs! Dated March 9, obviously to account for imposition of DST, yet still shows a 5- rather than 4-hour difference between ET and UT! After all these years they can`t cope accurately with time changes. Anyhow, still shows off the air every night from midnight until 2:04 pm - except Sundays back on already at 6:04 am. And `Walking in Simplicity` is already on sked Sat at 4:30 pm > presumably 2030 UT instead of ``2130``. No info about it under Pgminfo. Broad websearch connects that motto with https://harvestchurch.org.bw/ - yes, in Botswana but nothing about any broadcasts. WRTH page 595 shows WINB sales manager is Sally Spyker; guess Hans Johnson, ex-CumbreDX is no longer with WINB. In 2016 WRTH quick check, he was the sales/frequency manager. 2025 WRTH shows besides 1 x 50 kW transmitter they have 1 x 15 kW. Were they ever on two frequencies at once, even during DRMing? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9265, UT Mon April 7 at 0552, WINB is off as scheduled, unlike UT Sat Apr 5 when it was on past 0630. I think it was also off April 6 but not specifically un/logged (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 4840, April 3 at 0635, this WWCR-3 is unusually OFF, due to storms? However, at 0633, 5890 is on with TOMBS despite it being a weekday, // 5850 WRMI, singing ``Marching to Zion``. 5890 shows up occasionally on `wrong` overnights. Then day frequency of WWCR-3, 13845 is also OFF at 1457, still off past 1500 and 1615, while 9980 & 12160 are blasting in. By 1831, 13845 still off, 9980 also off as scheduled, leaving only 12160 on. Since WWCR-1 service was discontinued voluntarily, if that transmitter and antenna still be funxional, why couldn`t they apply those to the WWCR-3 13845/4840 schedule? April 3 at 1446, Ron Trotto-WDX4KWI, Virden, Illinois, reported, ``I noticed last night WWCR was off the air on all frequencies around 0530 UT. I checked 650 WSM they were on and off. Wondering if everyone is OK in the Nashville area of Tenn`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2289) ** U S A. 13845, April 4 at 1534, WWCR is JBA here but blasting in on 12160 S9+35, 9980 at S9+50 - a clear MUF sharpoff circa 13 MHz, unless 13845 be underpowered. Yes, this WWCR back on air today, as was 4840 at night, both absent the previous date (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5935, 5890, 4840, April 6 at 0320 & 0325, all possible WWCRs are OFF, probably due to storms, but neighbor in more ways than one, 5920 WTWW is S9+50 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5935, 5890, 4840, UT Sun April 6 at 0628, all WWCRs are still OFF, like 3 hours before, presumably due to storms. By next check 1448, 13845 on at S9+20, 7490 at S9+30, but 9980 JBA carrier, else? Nothing else is ever on 9980 per EiBi, Aoki, HFCC.  WWCR-4 9980 is supposed to run straight thru 12-24 on Sat & Sun, tho off at 16-22 M-F - and tho dated April 1, WWCR own sked shows wrong relation between Central and UTC of 6 hours instead of 5! After all these years, WWCR still can`t cope with DST accurately. Presumably  program times be correct in CDT as above if you ignore UTC column (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 560, April 7 at 0600, ``Springfield, all-new KWTO`` and Fox ``news`` which might have been CCI. So what`s new about it??? Presumably meaningless blather. Please show exactly what was old and done away with? Originally meant, a back-formation? ``Keep Watching The Ozarx`` but now per radio-locator it`s ``Keeping an Eye on the Ozarks``, even tho the call has not been newly changed to KAEOTO (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 750, April 7 at 0603 UT, WSB seems missing, only a weak signal compared to 760, 780, etc. But, no, WSB ID at 0605. Is QRP? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1530, this info from NRC DX News Apr 15, published Apr 7, bears on my latest logs of KZNX: ``1530 KZNX TX Creedmoor – Granted STA, U7 10000/36 (ch 1000), night operation from day/CH site with CH pattern; night site is not operational. 1530  WCKY  OH  Cincinnati – Granted STA extension, U1 50000/12500. - - - BORDER INN CORRECTION - - - 1530 KZNX TX Creedmore {sic} – 10/26 0558 [EDT?] – Clobbering KFBK with regional Mexican music and “la raza” slogans, mentioning KTXX-FM 104.9 and translator on 95.1, and secondary slogan “la que manda en Austin.” Earlier this evening, they gave a bizarre mis-ID as “XEZR, La Sonora de Margarita”  before giving their legal ID, in which the announcer seemed to stumble while reading the AM calls. Listed 220 Watts nights, but they are clearly running their 10 kW day power all night again. 1117 miles. (TRH-UT){Tim Hall} (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1540 kHz, April 6 at 0334 UT, Spanglish adstring for numerous events, concerts later in April, May, mentions San Antonio; and income tax ad at 927-1040 on S. Willow? St., 830 area code for a strawberry festival, which = Eagle Pass, Del Rio, approaching San Antonio, so I conclude this be KEDA. Trouble is, a big het on the minus side, about 1539.95, which is surely KGBC Galveston, but I`m only hearing one audio. KEDA is U4 5/1 kW, with very unfavorable night pattern to the WNW, but daypat circa-circular per radio-locator; while the NRC Pattern Book 2013 shows similar day to night, just larger (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 7260, April 4 at 0552, R. Vanuatu already JBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VANUATU. 9960, April 9 at 0652, RV reactivated here, island music and nothing on 7260 which I check every night around this time. Somewhat better signal now, S6/S7 direct and 9955 WRMITOMBS not a problem. 9960 chops off abruptly during music at 0658:14*. I retune to 7260 but never shows there, so where? No signal on 5040. But there is a JBA carrier on 3945 by 0700! I had not even been checking that on the assumption it would not be audible direct so early. But Port Vila sunset today is 0641 UT, so it is certainly possible. Earliest SS in a bimonth will be 0619. Unfortunately, 3945 still failing to harmonicize on 7890, 11835 or 15780. NSB/Nikkei, Japan on 3945 is no longer listed in WRTH, EiBi nor Aoki, tho IIRC it came back on briefly for a special event. Only Vanuatu listed on 3945. Of course there could also be spoiler hAMs or even pirates (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VENEZUELA [and non]. 60 meter band vacant! of any SW broadcasters, beyond WWV, April 3 at 0635, NO: 4840 WWCR, NO Estacion 4940, NO 5010 WRMI, NO 5025 CUBA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** VENEZUELA. 4940, April 6 at 0631, JBA signal is the OSOB = only station on band, that is, among broadcasters, besides WWV. Cuba 5025 also off. Wolfgang Büschel measured it at 0330 on 4939.982, from Colombia? Some still attribute Estación 4940 to Colombia, but it is well established by now as Venezuela. Despite EiBi putting it in Colombia, target Venezuela; that`s better than Aoki which ignores it completely, leading some to listlog 4940 as R. San Antonio, Perú, which hasn`t really been heard for many years! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 810.59 kHz, April 6 at 0644 UT, JBA carrier aside 810 WHB. Still hearing this mystery tho not every night. I challenge anyone to ID it or at least DF/triangulate source (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 1480, April 8 at 0625 UT, YL in Spanish instead of KQAM Wichita in English, or KNGO Metroplex in Vietnamese. Several possibilities but most likely KLVL Pasadena TX, U1 5000/500 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 7200 LSB, April 5 at 0624, song S9, apparently from a recording, then naughty ham attempting to sing (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 12000, April 6 at 0310, algo S5/S7 with flutter, JBM? Suspect it`s 2 x 6000 RHC which happens to be on now JBM and is a known harmonicizer; however, Aoki & EiBi show there happens to be one real 12000 station this hour only, CRI English via Kasghar = Kashi- Saiba, East Turkistan to S Asia; standard denunciation (Glenn Hauser,  OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 15470, April 3 at 1452, S5/S7 of dead air, off by 1458. Nothing listed for A25 now in Aoki but EiBi & HFCC have only IRAN in Dari at 0920-1250. IRIB has been reported elsewhen with dead air (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 17432-17463 approx., April 6 at 1442, multi-carrier, multi-tones beating, peaking S7 around 17450. Have been hearing this for long time; what is it? I recently gathered several other such logs at different frequency ranges, posted to UDXF iog, asking if anyone has any info about it? A single reply: ``Mike Chace-Ortiz Apr 3 #119371 The 48 kHz wide signals are one of the many sent by the stations testing HF for High Frequency Trading. 73 —mco`` Well, this one was only 31 kHz wide. OK, they must be licensed by FCC or equivalent. Any way to locate them? I also posted my other mystery, open carriers ending in 6, surrounded by clickery: zero replies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING An Entire Wing of the Smithsonian Full of Your Perfect Portraits of Donald Trump!
