** ASCENSION [and non]. 21645, Sunday May 19 at 1450, JBA carrier,
almost the OSOB except for another JBAC on 21485. Aoki & EiBi show
21645 BBC Saturday only in Hausa at 13-17; surely for stupid
ballgames. I guess if there were one on Sunday instead they would have
to turn it back on. 21485 is R. Tamazuj via FRANCE (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** CUBA. 15140 & 11760, Sunday May 19 at 1501, NO signals direct from
RHC instead of weekly Esperanto; nor at 1520 into Maryland SDR. Nor
hit on any known frequency before 1500 in multi-bandscan. Something`s
always wrong at RHC. By 1900, 15140 is on opening English hour but VP
S3/S5 into Maryland, no 11760 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2243 monitoring: confirmed UT
Sunday May 19 at 0000 on WRMI 9955, following fruitcake-for-Xmas
promo, Ian ID, S9/+5 with jamming underaudible into Peoria SDR; into
Bonaire where it`s aimed at 0015, S7/S9 with heavier jamming but still
copiable.
Also confirmed UT Sunday May 19 at 0337, on WA0RCR, 1860 AM, MO, S7/S8

** U S A. 5050, May 19 at 0604 and still 0645, S9+25/35 open
carrier/dead air. Surely it`s WRMI-4, forgot to turn off after only
times on skedgrid, 01-04 Legends. Aoki shows 02-05, presumably
leftover winter timing. Something`s odd at Okeechobee.
And would you believe current Aoki as of 5/18/24 still lists totally
defunct WWRB on 5050 at 22-13 on days 127 only = Sun/Mon/Sat?? Dave
Frantz died in Aug 2021, but station survived a bit longer; last? log
of it I had was Dec 12, 2021, testing on 3360 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
