*Maybe* but u.o.s., I don`t log without fonetix certain, but did not
write those down. Maybe he was saying ``Monkey`` instead of
``Yankee``? QRZ.com:

** CUBA [and non]. 6100, March 14 at 0558, RHC is S9+20, but Spanish
instead of English.
6060, March 14 at 0558, RHC music, then English, S9+10 with good
modulation.
5040, March 14 at 0559, RHC English VG S9+20/30, but cuts off at
0600*.
6165, March 14 at 0601, RHC back here after long absence, and no
signal on 9700; maybe starting as early as 0000, unchecked then. S7/S9
with that signature hum, but just barely modulated. By 0605 I realize
the language is not English or Spanish, but Arabic? So this is really
R. Japan in Arabic via FRANCE as scheduled 0600-0630, underneath the
Radio Humvana carrier. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
6000, March 14 at 0604, RHC S9+10/20 of dead air or trace of
modulation. Nothing else scheduled, so probably really RHC rather than
an understation; altho Echo of Hope, Korea South, might have jumped
from 5995 to 6000 this week? Somethings` always wrong at RHC (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KOREA NORTH [non]. 9800, March 14 at 1523, ballad at S4/S7 with
flutter, 1525 Korean announcement. I was expecting VOA Philippines,
but it takes a break at 1500-1900 from 9800; rather, Nippon no Kaze at
1500-1600 via Paochung, TAIWAN, site says Aoki; while EiBi says
TWN-s-Danshui/Tanshui/Tamsui (Taipei province) 25N11-121E25 vs.
TWN-p-Paochung/Baujong (Yunlin province) PAO/BAJ 23N43-120E18.
WRTH 2022 says pao while the //s are two other sites: 7290tsh,
7550tac. Korean ID is Ilbon-ui Baram (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** KURDISTAN [non]. 11540, March 14 at 1518, two weak signals beating,
Dengê Welat and Turkish jammer; also same on March 13. No more
cat-and-mouse? Nothing on alternate 11530, where D.W. ought to jump
when jammed on 11540, and v.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2129 monitoring: also confirmed Sun
March 13 at 2105 the 2100 on IRRS via AM Italia 1323 kHz, good &
steady S9+10 into nearby Noale SDR, no QRM.
Also confirmed Sunday March 13 at 2235 the 2230 on WRMI 5950! This was
deleted in the new sked dated March 13, so I hastened to delete me
from my sked too. Perhaps prolonged for one more time. VG into
Knoxville SDR. We hope to get back onto 5950 System L, sometime.
Also confirmed UT Monday March 14 at 0030 on WRMI 7730, S7/S9 into
Knoxville SDR.
Missed checking at new time 0300 UT Mon March 14 on Area 51 via WBCQ,

** U S A. 15770, reminder that VOA`s Flashpoint Ukraine is now M-F at
1935 via WRMI; and new sked has added WORLD OF RADIO at 1930 Saturdays
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 9955, March 13 at 2226, WRMI in English, S9+20/30 but quite
undermodulated. Scheduled at 2215-2230 Sundays is Voice of Truth --
with a name like that, beware! Something`s odd at Okeechobee (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7780, at 0330 various nights but not logged, a new gospel
huxter on WRMI, ``Soteriah International Ministry``, in English but
very heavy African accent hard to understand, encouraging immediate
tuneout. Nothing about it on programming page, but bought up a lot of
time on sked updated Mar 13:
Mon-Sat 0330-0400 7780, but what about R. Svobodna expanded to 0400?
Sat 1200-1230 5850
Sat 2200-2300 5850 or is it daily? blank rest of week
Tue-Sat 0000-0100 5950
General search on that strange name reveals that Soteriah is Greek for
deliverance, i.e. another Christian concept. Maybe the same thing has
a place on disgraced FB, but stalled since 2014y!
https://www.facebook.com/Soteria-International-Ministries-566096896845170/
Tema, Ghana, is mentioned, which would account for the accent. Yet
another one obsessed with the godname Yahweh. There are some other
ministries with such a Soteriah name (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 4790, UT Monday March 14 after 0330, `Concert Hall` on WBCQ
Radio Angela, concluding Act I of Carmen --- I thought it was supposed
to be Act II of Barber of Seville this week; filled with some other
Carmen music until 0359. Now starts at 0200 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 15300, March 14 at 1514-1514.4*, JBA signal with heavy
Doppler flutter, i.e. horizontally in frequency, not just vertically
in strength. Only one signal, not two beating, when chopped off air
abruptly. Nothing between 1500-1600 in HFCC, Aoki or EiBi. In these
entire skeds only a handful of transmissions ending at ``-1515``: 7510
KTWR Korean; Chengdu, China on 7225, 6060; Kunming on 7210; none of
which seem likely on 15300. No other signals nearby on 19m with such
flutter, presumably close to trans-polar (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
TIPS FOR RATIONAL LIVING
What Can We Learn from the War in Ukraine?
Four erroneous and dangerous premises have been accepted in current
international relations.
Juan Antonio Blanco Miami 10 Mar 2022 - 17:40 CET
"How did we get here?" Jake Tapper asked CNN on Sunday, March 6. His
answer was honest and accurate: it has been two decades of misguided
optimism and appeasement by Western leaders, of different parties,
eager to ignore Vladimir Putin's grave misconduct inside and outside
Russia.
In the end, Tapper asked whether any lessons had been learned from all
this. He left the answer up in the air, to be pondered by viewers. I
don't think so.
To correct these errors, it is not enough to point them out. Rather,
it is necessary to understand the premises — also mistaken — that
spawned the West's indecision, confusion and weakness vis-a-vis its
main enemies. And it is not only with Russia that mistakes have been
made, but also with Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, North Korea, China, and its
disgraceful non-state allies (including international terrorism and
organized crime).
To answer Tapper's question, I think it is necessary to reconsider at
least four false and dangerous foreign policy premises that have been
accepted over the last two decades by important open societies....
