** ERITREA [non]. 17545+, Sat Dec 12 at *1529, I think a JJBBA carrier
may cut on as I am QRX for Bayto Yaikl. After breakfast by 1541 it`s
surged to JBA, enough to try to measure it, but as I toggle
lower/upper BFO to compute the center, it keeps fluxuating roughly
17545.05 to 17545.07. Anyhow, it`s still active on Saturdays as well
as Wednesdays.

Then to remotes, as I also want to try TDOA DFing since there is still
doubt whether site really be ISSoudun, FRANCE. There are far too many
in Europe, too few in Africa & Mideast on the Kiwi roster. Little or
nothing at Qatar, Canary, Ukraine, while TWR RSA is getting it well,
S7-S9, but you need at least two, preferably three or more.

RSA in SAM mode also shows carrier Hz offset constantly fluxuating
plus: 62.1, *67.6, 64.7, 61.7, 57.0, 51.7, 45.0, *36.8, 42.6, 47.6,
51.5, 54.9, 58.3, 61.3, 63.7, 65.8, *67.4, 65.6, 62.2, 58.5, 53.2,
47.2, *37.7, 41.0, etc., etc. I`ve starred the maxima and minima, 67.6
& 36.8 in one cycle, 67.4 & 37.7 in the second. Already wrapping up
around 1554 citing kHz, to cutoff at 1558* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 6170-6175-6180, Dec 12 at 0704, DRM noise I had not
noticed here before: it`s RRI in German at 0700-0730, 90 kW, 307
degrees from Tsiganeshti (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [non]. 17895, Dec 12 at 1601, I still have the Qatar KiwiSDR
running after trying to get Bayto Yaikl 17545 on it, so tune around
the 16mb for anything else, finding nothing but VOA YL news here,
S7/S9+10; 1605 outro as ``via remote, Laurel Berman`` (sp?), working
from home, I guess, and into `Nightline Africa`, OM host I think says
he is originating from Accra, Ghana. So they don`t have to avoid Pack
or Reilly in the hallways, studios or offices! 17895 site is BOTSWANA
at 16-18, preceded by SAO TOME at 15-16, which is preceded by Sa`udi
Riyadh at 12-15.

[BTW, I strongly suspect the NPR newscasters on the hour are also
working-from-home, due to different audio quality and slight delays]

** U S A. 9975, re reactivated KVOH I have yet to hear, not on around
0200 Dec 12; but Ivo Ivanov was hearing it by 0630 on a California
remote. Ray Robinson points out about the new program schedule; the
header timing until 1100 refers to part of the webcast, not broadcast;
and SW times are 00-02 Spanish, 02-07 English. Perhaps it will be on
UT Sunday, but never on UT Monday, the delayed Sabbath.

17775- remains off after 1600 Saturday Dec 12 when `Wavescan` would
have aired; unclear if & when it will be fixed, but maybe not soon as
KVOH have turned on another transmitter for 9975, a long dormant but
always registered transmission they could have been doing all along
