** BRAZIL. 6107-6127 approx., Oct 5 at 0205, extremely distorted blob,
can`t specify a peak point, hyper-enthusiastic Brazuguese talk, like
futebol play-by-play. It`s RNA, totally missing from 6180 leaving that
clear for MWV Madagascar in Spanish. By 0211, manage to match mod
peaks to 11780 which sounds OK on separate radio. Something`s bollixed
up at Brasília!
Ron Trotto was first reporting this as unID into IL on 6115. That`s
approaching local midnight at 0300 UT; do futebol games run that late
in Brasil or is it a playback? Next check at 0240, both are off:
previously logged chopping off air during programming at 0230* rather
than nominal 0300*. Ron Howard replies:
``The only major sports event found in Brazil (Rio De Janeiro)
tonight, as noted on online, was the Volleyball Men's Olympic
Qualification Tournaments, with Brazil vs Ukraine. Final score -

** CANADA. From Richard B Langley, NB: ``Hi Glenn: Just a minor
nitpick of your last program. Miramichi is actually pronounced as
mir-a-mi-SHEE. Not so it rhymes with Don Ameche. Another weird
Canadian``
Richard, Tnx, please don`t hesitate to correct/enlighten me about any
further mistaxe. I do tend to default to penultimatism u.o.s. (Glenn

** FRANCE [and non]. 6100, about MiniTransAt, we`ve been calling this
a yacht race, but I note that word does not appear on the homepage
when translated to English. These are of course, sailboats, unmotored,
right?? That`s the point of the race. I suppose there is some ideal,
not very large size, for speed, yet able to grab plenty of wind.
What`s a yacht, and what`s nacht? It seems American usage is quite
different from elsewhere. Huge luxury vessels also called yachts.
Google translate indicates that if they have to say it, the French use
the English word (Glenn Hauser, landlubber, WORLD OF RADIO 2211)

** U S A. 7505, Oct 5 at 0649, S9+40 of dead air yet again from WRNO
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 5085, WTWW: Update from George McClintock as of 0200 UT
October 6. Not on air last night or tonight. Problem is the remote
control which had been reliable for years, is not working. Will have
to download the program and install on a different computer. Bob
Biermann agrees to wait until next Monday night = UT Tuesday October
10 at 0100; but possibly could start earlier if the remote is working.
He can also handle the PPP feeds. SFA in Colorado still wants to sell
it; maybe in a couple months. If so, George hopes to retain access to
one of the transmitters. One of the antenna fields to be combined with
neighboring property for greater value over $ 1 million (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 5 circa 0645, no signal from R. Vanuatu. As also
noted by Ron Howard: ``Radio Vanuatu - Oct 5, tuned in at 0644 UT,
expecting to hear them on 7260, as they normally switch frequencies
from 7260 to 3945, at 0658, but not today; already on 3945 at tune in;
0659, promo for the Vanuatu TV program "Morning Show"; 0701, start of
news. Wonder when they started broadcasting on 3945 today? Ron
