** ALASKA. 7320, Nov 29 at 1401, KNLS IS is S6-S7 vs high noise level;
7560 also playing KNLS IS much better at S9. 7320 is English at 270
degrees on a -30 degree slew from 300, 7560 is Mandarin at 300
degrees, no slew, both types 218 antenna and allegedly 100 kW, yet
quite a difference. Maybe because at about 98 degrees we are closer to
directly off the back of 270 than 300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

** BRAZIL. 11855.74, Nov 29 at 0623, R. Aparecida M&W conversation in
Brazuguese, the SSOB and almost the OSOB except JBA carrier on 11815
from the other Brazilian, signs of N Korea on 11680, 11710, and that`s
it (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 5040, Nov 29 at 0036, RHC English is S9+40 but just barely
modulated; 9720 is off now. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** CUBA. 6150, Nov 29 at 1348, RHC is S9+10 mentioning Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez, on secret frequency not in Aoki, but EiBi has it at 12
-14; // much stronger another new frequency, 11950 (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** INDONESIA. 3325, Nov 29 at 1352, music at S8-S6, one signal
presumed VOI Palangkaraya rather than Bougainville. 1358 fading, 1400
sounds like theme music. The English hour from VOI might even have
been listenable from 1300 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 2850, Nov 29 at 1357, KCBS music at S8-S9, qualifying
as MW; also on 3320 at about same level as 3325 Indonesia (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA SOUTH. 5920, Nov 29 at 1351, M&W Korean talk, S9/S9+10 and no
jamming audible vs Voice of Freedom currently here (Glenn Hauser, OK,
DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 700, Nov 29 at 1304, YL in unknown language, partly Spanish
mentioning ``Desarrollo de Pueblos Indígenas``, which is the federal
agency running native stations I love to hear, then definite IDs
pronounced in Spanish, XEETCH heard twice, and La Voz de los Tres
Rios. That`s the 5 kW daytimer in Etchojoa, Sonora. Has growing SAH of
128/min = 2.13 Hz in plain Spanish, likely XEGD in Hidalgo del Parral,
Chihuahua (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO [and non]. 810, Nov 29 at 1308, looping SW, Mexican NA by
kidchorus is playing; running late? 1310 losing to WHB and can`t make
out an ID before ``-AM`` in Spanish. Then some Xmasmx, Greensleeves,
1316 Merry Little Xmas in English so probably a third station. The
only Mexfit is XERSV, Tribuna R., Ciudad Obregón, Sonora, 5 kW
daytimer. (Tim Hall has confirmed that XESB in Chihuahua is gone.)
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** MEXICO. 820, Nov 29 at 1321, canned YL ID as ``Canal Ochocientos
Veinte, ABC Radio`` and back to romantic music, easily separable from
WBAP at the moment, just before LSR of 1321 UT. It`s XEABCA in
Mexicali BCN, which really gets out, and frequently non-IDs (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SOMALILAND. 7120, Nov 29 at 1347, S5-S7 carrier but just barely
modulated, presumed R. Hargeisa by longpath when it could even be in
English (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 710, Nov 28 a 2038 UT, counting the SAH fades between KGNC
Amarillo and KCMO Kansas City both on groundwave: 156/minute = 2.6 Hz.
Again on caradio at a parking lot in western Enid.

1090, Nov 28 at 2040 UT, SAH here of 5 Hz, talk station vs music
station. One is certainly KEXS Excelsior Springs MO, 10 kW, which
barely makes it here by groundwave; the other could be KAAY Little
Rock, starting skywave as it`s really too far for groundwave. No other
1090s likely (a couple in further reaches of TX). (Glenn Hauser, Enid
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1130, Nov 28 at 2101 UT, `The Tiger` ID after weak
sportstalk, which I knew had to be KWKH Shreveport, as nearer KLEY
Wellington KS is off the air again --- better than pulsing and
breaking up as it did earlier this year, but seemed to have recovered
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, Nov 29 at 1256-
1302, all roughly NW u.o.s.: 594, 693, 747, 774, 828, 837, 882(2),
972, 1098-W?, 1134, 1143 (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 1521, Nov 28 at 2044 UT, on my MW bandscan in western
Enid, KOKC OKC has a JBA het upon it! Roughly 1 kHz, but I can`t tell
exactly on caradio and whether it`s 1519 or 1521. Could the 2-megawatt
Saudi be propagating this early?

On NRD at home Nov 29 at 0044 UT, het is definitely from 1521. KSA
quit running all-night and should be off by now unless that has
changed. TA carriers are certainly in now on a quick check of 1215,
1089, 882, 855, 774, 693.

ZNS 1540 Bahamas has also been reported spurious circa 1521 and 1559.
Or it could yet be something else (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 6999.98, Nov 29 at 0033, beeps = carrier on and off at
the rate of 126/minute (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

This report dispatched at 0051 UT November 30
