I just noticed that WWCR seems to be off the air on all frequencies. I usually find them at 4840 and 3215 at this time of night, but nothing's there, so I checked their other frequencies (https://www.wwcr.com/transmitter-sched.html) and... nothing. Anyone know what's up?

Noticed them absent. Also noticed WTWW (5085) is way down in strength as compared to "usual". Everything else in the 5MHz region seems to be at their usual signal levels, though.

Jan. 6 1500 utc hour
Received them good to excellent on 9980, 13845, and 15825
1600 utc
12160 is as strong as usual

Zilch. Nada on 13845 khz @ 15:45 utc
Very weak on 12160 @a 15:53

I've got them as normal, quite strong, on 12160 at 1622 utc on Aug 28.

All that hot air from fire and brimstone preaching finally wore a hole in the atmosphere?

Wasn't HAARP supposed to do that? Maybe this is a more efficient way to heat the ionosphere.

Speakin' of weird stuff, I keep hearing what sounds reminiscent of our old USSR pal Woodpecker here & there?
Any comments?

Yes, I have noticed this too, though in my case(s), it came down to the receiver mode selection and the passband at the time.
I could see in the waterfall display that the signal was frequency sweeping, perhaps like the coastal radars that are used to track tidal flows and the sweep rate, TX bandwidth and RX bandwidth were just right to make a pulsating sound like the woodpecker in the 1970s-80s while listening in AM mode. If you changed RX mode on the receiver to say USB, it would sound completely different though. It definitely was not the woodpecker. The woodpecker didn't have much frequency sweep rate. (I didn't have a waterfall frequency display in those days but I don't believe that there was much sweep, if any, to the woodpecker.)

Burning probably not what we need at this time. Let's think about ionospheric seeding, like cloud seeding. Maybe Blue Origin or Virgin Galactic will rent out their rockets for this endeavor?
