** CHINA. 7325, Sept 22 at 1248, CRI Japanese service is still missing (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 5985, Thu Sept 22
at 1320, Sea Breeze from JAPAN at S6-S8, YL in Thursday-only English with a Sept
13 news item about Korea North, typical sounder (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 650, Sept 22 at 1215, ad for John Deere, Sinaloa, so
XETNT, Radio 65, Los Mochis in agropecuaria wake-up show. Not a big dominant
signal it used to achieve at sunrise (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** MEXICO. 720, Sept 22 at 1210, lots of ``felicidades`` birthday
greetings from family members; unseem particular to Ciudad Juárez, so maybe
national hookup from parent station El Fonógrafo 1150 XEJP in the DF via XEJCC
Chihuahua. 1213 finally music expected to be `Mañanitas`` but something else.
Very poor signal from WSW, much weaker than neighbor 730 XEHB Parral (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** OKLAHOMA. Out-of-band tuning Sept 22
finds a number of suspicious carriers with traces of talk, really overload
mixing products on the R75 between strong real SW signals and local 1390 KCRC,
such as:
9120 = 7730 WRMIBS + 1390, a bit stronger than 9130 at 1238;
1324
8960 = 7570 WRMIBS + 1390, at 1238
8250 = 9640 RHC - 1390, at
1242
8680 = 9640 RHC - 960 KGWA, my other local, weak talk at 1244
8775 =
7385 WHRI + 1390 (and // 1390 audio on this one) at 1244
10970, Sept 22
at 1240, JBA carrier, a typical SOH/CNR1 frequency, altho not in current Aoki,
instead 10960. Aha, another KCRC 1390 mixture plus 9580 Australia. Switching off
Preamp 2 to 1 or no preamp tends to get rid of them. I don`t expect anyeditor to
publish these items, as inapplicable elsewhere, but they are examples of the
kind of things one must watch out for (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
** RUSSIA. 5900, Sept 22 at 1154, JBA carrier, presumably R.
Rossii, Vladivostok in its final minutes, as the SW (and MW 810) transmitters
are reported to be closing again Sept 22/23 after temporary reactivation for
typhoon and elexion coverage (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
**
RUSSIA. 7295, Sept 22 at 1249, JBA carrier, presumably R. Sakha still
transmitting but with much weaker signal than before. Was not getting even this
an hour earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** SUDAN. 7207.0,
Sept 22 at 0519, JBA carrier, presumably Omdurman still here ex-7206, ex-7205;
what`s next, 7208? (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A [and
non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1843 monitoring: confirmed Wed Sept 21 at 2100 on WBCQ

** U S A. 9275, Sept 22 at
1625 check, WMLK is on already, so apparently nominal 16-21 UT Sun-Fri schedule
remains (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** U S A. 890, Sept 22 at
1218 UT, with KTLR OKC nulled, understation mentions southern Utah, USU, ``here
on KDXU``, i.e. St George, 10/10 kW U2, at sunrise here, so should still be on
night pattern with a cardioid null toward Chicago --- we are somewhat off that
bearing, but still not getting much from KDXU unless it`s really ND day
pattern.
(More interesting was what KTLR was talking about: Pepsi
fighting California over having to label its soda as containing carcinogens,
i.e. caramel coloring -- and Coca Cola manages to use acceptably less of it.)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
** VANUATU [and non]. 7260-, Sept
22 at 1249, double carrier beating, one definitely on the lo side, as fits R.
Vanuatu, most recently measured at 7259.959 by Wolfgang Büschel on the Brisbane
remote, Sept 16 at 0549. The 7260.0 would be Ulaanbaatar and/or Urumqi (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA carrier
search Sept 22: at 1154, 774, 693, 747, 702 --- all from NW rather than WSW,
which means 702 isn`t Australia, but probably North Korea or China.
Pacific-Northeasterners report NHK-2 on 702, but two of those are only 10 kW.
Also 657, 738, the latter usually Tahiti but too much 740 KRMG to get a bearing
on it.
At 1201: 828; at 1202: 1053, 1134, 1143; at 1204: 1242; at 1206:
1566 where PNEs have been reporting a jammer against FEBC S Korea. 1053 is also
a jammer by S Korea against N Korea. At 1207: still 702 from the NW, also 774,
828. Final check at 1226: 774 still in from NHK. Local sunrise here today was
1220 UT, one bihour before equinox (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 8570, Sept 22 at 1243, open carrier at S6, maybe ute
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
UNIDENTIFIED. 9130, Sept 22 at
1237, JBA signal with talk. Could be Sound of Hope/CNR1 jammer, altho not listed
here in Aoki. Numerous other OOB carriers, now under OKLAHOMA proved to be
overload mixtures with locals 1390 KCRC or 960 KGWA, but not this one (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)
