LSS is finally early enough, 0833 UT to start propagating them during my habitual bedtime monitoring window from ~0630 even tho two hours earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO. 800, Sept 19 from 0620, the extremely distorted signal is certainly XEERG, Ojo de Agua, Nuevo León. After two nights of hearing horribly distorted QRM to KQCV 800 OKC, not noted earlier UT Sept 19 during primetime, but again now at 0620, altho not as severe as before. See previous reports under OKLAHOMA [and non]. This time I`m checking remote receivers. NOT heard in OKC, so not a defect of KQCV itself. Not heard at Durango2 SDR. But YES, audible at these: Querétaro; Austin TX; even Truth or Consequences NM making me wonder if XEROK could be attempting a comeback. At 0625 am also hearing it quite well at McAllen TX SDR in the RGV, so I stick with that. Without KQCV or other QRM there, I can tell there are Spanish announcements between rock tunes. At 0638, Spanish ID mentions ``92.9``. A BIG clue, so let`s take another look at listings: mwlist: ``800 MEX XEERG RG La Deportiva 92.9 FM Ojo de Agua * 10/2.5 relays XHERG 92.9 MHz, ex XEDD La Tremenda`` Who cares what state it`s in? Mwlist does not. But they should, since there are more than one Ojo de Agua in the country! Google searching without specifying Nuevo León leads to the major one in Estado de México. But look at this in the 2024 IRCA Mexican Log: ``800 XEERG NL Ojo de Agua 10000 2500 R-G La Deportiva 24h? SPT ORO // XERG 690 AM, XHERG 92.9 FM, and XHFMTU 103.7 FM-HD2. ex-XEDD. Stereo. Staying on AM per IFT. Active on AM 11/23 (logged by DXer) and included in 8/24 IFT list. This station was purchased because of its powerful FM license, giving the operator of XERG 690 AM an FM "rim shot" into Monterrey`` Facebook: ``La localidad de Ojo de Agua está situado en el Municipio de Agualeguas (en el Estado de Nuevo León). Tiene 82 habitantes. Ojo de Agua está a 380 metros de altitud.`` So there we have both an FM frequency match and a geographical match for XEERG near Monterrey. We do not have a format match, but it would not be unusual for a sports station to be playing music instead in the nightmiddle. On distorted 800, I hear another announcement break at 0642 before quitting SDR. Final check direct at 0647: less distorted music still QRMing KQCV. Then in the daytime at 1615 UT, I check McAllen again: and there it is by groundwave on 800, extremely distorted talk, presumably about sports. Non-local strength, only S5. While monitoring via McAllen remote in the night, I did not yet know about the // on 690. But now at 1620 there is ALSO NON-distorted sports talk mentioning Monterrey, on 690. By 1710, no signal on 690, off? but still distorted on 800. This is not splatter from anything on 790 or 810. The TWR Brownsville SDR is not available. BTW when I first checked the new McAllen SDR a few days ago, it was deaf below 1800 kHz, but not anymore. I had previously asked if anyone else was hearing the distorted 800, but no replies (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2261) ** MEXICO. 800, Sept 20 at 0620, KQCV OKC with just a bit of distorted QRM, along with several others like CKLW, PJB. McAllen SDR check at 1558 daytime: still extreme distorted talk on 800, and matching cadence on non-distorted 690. BTW, Mauno Ritola points out that while the ``quick & easy`` version of mwlist does not specify Mexican states, the full database does (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** MEXICO [and non]. 800, Sept 25 at 0709 UT, KQCV OKC again with extremely distorted musiQRM, no doubt XEERG NL as I previously discovered.

One may also contribute via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily to: woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. UNIDENTIFIED, at first: 9475, Sept 23 at 2208, zero signal from this WTWW direct, but 9930 is on. However, as I tune across the 9 MHz band at 2209-2219, I encounter numerous extremely distorted spurblobs, cadence of modulation is talk but totally unreadable, quite broad and shifty so no exact frequencies pinnable. Circa: 9416, 9546, 9676, 9682, 9692, 9802, 9828, 9918, 9943, 10059. I compare these on second radio to the only bigsigs on band at this time, 9930 WTWW, 9350 & 9980 WWCR, and there is NO match. So I suspect it`s the 9475 transmitter haywire again. At 2302, all clear, no 9475 nor spurs direct. Not paying close attn but at 2332* noise surge as 9475 carrier has been on but off again. By Sept 24 at *0011.5, 9475 on for half a minute; *0013 on again with open carrier, soon turning up mod of PPPP and stays on. At 0018, bandscan without any of those spurs while 9475 remains clean. Oops, 9475 cuts off again suddenly at 0024*. Cuts back on at *0028.7 JIP PPPP again. 0058 usual QSY announcement to 5085, which comes on about *0059. Stays on past 0150 more or less OK but some clunking sounds (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9475 WTWW: George McClintock replied to my report of spurs at 0315 Sept 24: ``Glenn, I had very bad transmitter problems. Just got 5085 on just a few hours ago. #1 transmitter also has problems. 2 transmitters off air at the same time. George McClintock 9-23-2024``. 9475 was off again Sept 24 at 2220 check, but on at 2307 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9955, UT Sat Sept 21 at 0642 is // 5850 with non-BS gospel huxter, but must be TOM: instead of RFI in Spanish it usually has been airing during this hour. TOMBS on 9955 supposedly starts at 0500 weekends only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5800, Sept 22 at 0300, Jeff White offers special QSL for reports about Freedom Synergy Radio which follows on 5800, if sent to radiomiami9 at gmail.com What about 9955? Previously I`ve caught them // but not now, rather a discussion of harpsichord-like instrument. I guess that`s R. Prague listed both on System B and H skeds. 9955 Sept 22 at 0632 with TOMBS as on sked, rather than RFI in Spanish which had been reality this hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9395, Monday Sept 23 at 2303, WRMI VG direct with `On the Media` soliciting SW reception reports and even audios about SWLing, 2305 into regular opening of show which is about disappearing and endangered weekly alt newspapers such as The Riverfront Times, St. Louis which was recently sold to who knows what and everyone fired! `OTM` has several times on the WRMI skedgrid, but not this one! Supposedly at 2300 Mon it`s `Viva Miami`, i.e. expendable, at 2315 `Midnight Cry Ministry` and at 2330 `Alameda Bible Fellow` which are surely paid for. Not rechecked until 2340 when in fact it`s a ponderous preacher, I think ABF, certainly not OTM, so it did not get played for a full hour! System G sked shows OTM Mondays 2100 and UT Tuesdays 0200 on 9395. OTM originates at WNYC: let`s hope it survive the major cutbacks there. I haven`t got into the habit of listening to it on WRMI, but really should if there`s a reliable complete hour for it (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5130 -74 Hz = 5129.926, Sept 20 at *2355, WBCQ comes on with IS and ID loop, but not 3265, S9/+10 into NH SDR. 2359 ``WBCQ, Radio Trump International on Radio Angela`` outdated ID, dead air and // 7490 after 0000 Sept 21, opening `AAAWWW` theme with first interjexion ``we have to fight for free speech``, etc. With Angela in Florida studio 9, right into politix, about taxes, ``Democrat crap``. Made worse by both of them, especially Angela, yelling, which from a studio makes their delusions even more of a turn-off. So I hardly pay attention but let this new episode run in background. 5130- goes to dead air at 0100 before they are quite finished; at 0102 canned WBCQ ID, more DA and off by 0103 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 660, Sept 21 at 0646 UT, unusual good signal with C&W music, rivaling 650 WSM. I bet it`s KTNN. Yes! at 0648 ID in English as ``KTNN, Window Rock, Arizona`` and two other towns. Obviously on 50 kW ND day pattern instead of protecting WFAN NYC as required, possiblizing much more interesting listening than stupid sportstalk, into the Midwest. Especially when they get to Navajo drumming and chanting (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 660, Sept 25 at 0707, Navajo chanting and drumming, i.e. KTNN AZ again on ND day pattern; same time, 650 WSM Nashville inaudible; in a fade? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1060, Sept 24 at 0703 UT, traffic report mentioning Delaware, weather, must be 50 kW KYW Philadelphia atop the channel; yes, then into ``final hour of Sports Philadelphia``. Not often heard; day and night patterns with NW/SE lobes and supposedly null thisaway! per NRC Pattern Book. Radio-locator https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KYW&service=AM is similar but not a deep notch hereto. 1070, Sept 24 at 0705 UT, traffic report on the 101 freeway, Hollywood, got to be ND 50 kW KNX Los Ángeles. Neat to be getting coast-to-coast MW simultaneously on adjacent frequencies with 1060 KYW Philadelphia. Total apartness 3843 km = 2388 miles. Still that annoying LAH = low audible heterodyne from always off-frequency KFTI Wichita. MWoffsets shows it 22 Hz low (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1110, Sept 19 at 0655, `C2CAM` on KFAB is now running 3.5 seconds *ahead* of 1100 WTAM, why? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1130, Sept 24 at 0709 UT, KLEY ID immediately upon tunein, Wellington KS mixing with KWKH, which obviously doesn`t care about its protracted violation with 250 watt day power instead of 1 watt nights, which means we can`t call it a ``daytimer``, strictly speaking. 1 watt at night not even covers its county, let alone rimshotting Wichita: https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KLEY&service=AM&h=N&z=o but slightly pulled in SSEward as if ``protecting`` KWKH also in daytime. And KLEY certainly not trying to hide itself. Not that I really care vs stupid sportstalk; except for following the rules (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 1470, Sept 23 at 0506 UT, ``1470 and 100.3, WMBD`` ID immediately upon tuneacross: Peoria IL, U4 5/5 kW. Somewhat surprising as NRC Pattern book shows very tight lobes a bit CCW from N/S day and night; but radio-locator shows only slightly favoring N/S and not notched thisaway. Website has no ``about us`` or station history; have wondered what call could signify: maybe, ``We Might Be DX``. Here`s a history, https://fromthehistoryroom.wordpress.com/tag/1470-wmbd/ but not about the callsign; however, can it be coincidental that one early announcer was Milton BudD?!
