 WORLD OF RADIO 1425 SUMMARY:
*CFRX, Toronto, 6070 kHz, back on air after two years, at first off- 
 frequency [and then with modulation lacking]; just as we predicted, 
 collides with and loses out to CVC Chile all-night; ELWA Liberia also 
 on 6070
*Mixing product on 6390 in Japanese at 0200 is NHK via Sackville 5960 
 leapfrogging over Vietnam via Sackville on 6175
*CJLO, 1690, Montreal, testing on air; suppressed harmonic on 3380, 
 but look for it anyway
*CBC Radio 2 has four new online streams of different music genres
*Route 66 On the Air, special event ham stations, Sept. 13-21; see 
 http://www.w6jbt.org/Route ota/Index.htm
*Baseball on 1660 is KXTR, Kansas City, despite classical format 
 elsewhen, and not the Royals, but T-Bones
*WDJO, 1160 in Kentucky, heard in McAllen, Texas on 1610, 3220, 4830, 
 9660; must be local low-power relay putting out harmonics

 Delano; we might need shortwave again
*Illegal political battles heard on 20m, 14272, playing speeches of 
 candidates
*WRNO resumed 7505 UT Sept 10 after a sesquiweek break for hurricanes, 
 but no damage
*World of Radio airing on WRMI, 9955, Sunday 2030, replaced by Foro 
 Revolucionario Democrático Cubano; jammed anyway
*New station in Florida on 1550, WNZF, Bunnell, Flagler County, runs 
 day power at night when hurricanes threat, so may be widely heard. 
 Try for it as you try for ZNS, Bahamas, 1540
*Hurricane Ike briefly diminished Cuban jamming; and other anomalies
*Does anyone recognize who originated or used as radio slogan among 
 Cuban exiles years ago, ``Sin libertad, la vida nada vale`` (Without 
 freedom, life is worth nothing)?
