** EAST TURKISTAN [non?]. 17615, August 4 at 0638, Chinese traditional
music at S8/9+10, the SSOB by far, besides several carriers or JBA
carriers propagating on 16m in the summer nightmiddle. Probably CGTN
German service from Kashgar, land of imperialist ChiCom genocide
against Uighurs and other Moslems; but simulscheduled is CRI in
Chinese via Kunming. Is the entire German hour, like several other
languages, defaulting to fill music? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1210, August 4 at 0646 UT, ``The Five States` Big Talker,
KGYN`` Guymon ID, mentions Jim Bohannon, but not his voice. Seems the
78-year-old has been out for some time with health issues, but a
seemingly recent item says he is now coming back, thanking three
substitutes. Can no longer find any affiliate list on the web (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** UKRAINE [non]. 7730, August 4 at 0500-0507, UR1 via WRMI, `Ukraine:
Security Issue` VG into Maryland SDR; including: Russia has failed to
occupy Donbas completely; being repulsed in the south, such as 50
settlements in Kherson region liberated (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

on WRMI 5010, not solid with storm crashes, both into Maryland SDR.
WOR 2150 should be ready for download and first broadcasts on WRMI
5850 & 7730, UT Friday August 5 at 0130 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7730, UT Thursday August 4 at 0100-0130, WRMI VG with Radio
Carpathia International, music from E Europe. This test spot provided
by R. Northern Europe International with own show at 0130-0200. Both
hosted by YLs, who they are and where they are not clear. Presumably
not on a weekly basis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 1090, August 4 at 0648 UT, ``The Voice of Southern Gospel
Singing, news? Radio, AM 1090, KAAY`` promo. Big sig, so is it still
on 12.5 kW? FCC AM Query still shows 50 kW direxional at night, with
0.08 kW only a CP, and nothing about 12.5 kW. Until digging into the
Correspondence file, latest from July 14:
http://licensing.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/prod/cdbs/forms/prod/getimportletter_exh.cgi?import_letter_id=102873
Has been on 12.5 kW ND STA for over 2 years, but got another extension
until January 14, 2023. Why is it so tough to get an 80 watt
transmitter up and running? Meanwhile the other 1090s and DXers will
have to put up with KAAY QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED. 1160, August 4 at 0644 UT, ``la santísima virgen``
mentioned in Spanish, ergo something RCC in the Marian cult. Last
year`s NRC AM Log shows some EWTN stations on 1160, but all in
English. Among SS stations in USA, only REL is: WRLZ, Saint Cloud FL,
U4 2500/500 watts. No website but owned by Iglesia el Calvario de
Orlando, Inc., which is Assemblies of God, not Catholic. Not Mexican,
only one 1160 left, in BC, non-religious. 1170 Tulsa IBOC peaking 1157
evitable by USB tuning (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
