DX/SWL/MEDIA PROGRAMS updated July 6
https://www.worldofradio.com/dxpgms.html
** ALGERIA [and non]. 17600, July 6 at 1522, no signal direct from
Ifrikya FM - but propagation is degraded: however, 17855 Spain and
17815 Turkey are JBA. And even unto UTwente at 1615, nothing on 17600.
But by 1738 recheck of UTwente, it`s on with HOA music, 17599.998,
S8/9+5 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** BOTSWANA. 15579.990+, Sat July 6 at 1550, `Music Time in Africa` on
VOA, the 1505 airing, S9+10/20 into UTwente. One semihour earlier, NO
signal direct, not even JBA carrier. Propagation really degraded;
presumably still operating this site, but VOA long ago dispensed with
any on-air specific site IDs. Casual listener would think they all
come from ``Washington, DC``. Note the offset of this transmitter now,
in case that change (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 27184.52 at S7 and 27224.83 at S9, July 6 at 1518, open
carriers from the Enid CB pirate relaying nothing (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2250 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday July 6 at 0400 on WTWW 5085, VG direct; postlude of music
0429 until 0437*.
Also confirmed Saturday July 6 at 1450 the 1430 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, 6160.003, S9 into UTwente.
Also confirmed Saturday July 6 at 1615 the 1600 on WRN N America
webcast.
Also confirmed Saturday July 6 at 1738 the 1730 on SW Gold Radio,
Germany, into UTwente: 6159.999+ at S7/S9 with storm crashes but 1739
suddenly surges to S9+20, turned up power? And 3975.003 at S7/S9,
running about 5 words behind 6160 as usual, as truly transmitted, or a
KiwiSDR thing? Next:

** U S A. 9265, Sat July 6 at 0659, WINB still on with gospel huxter,
S7/S9 direct and steady not usual wobble. 0700 ID and `The Old Rugged
Cross` introducing another g.h. Had not noticed them on so late, but
bimonth-old program sked shows until 0700 on Sat & Sun only, otherwise
-0600*. But now it continues past 0700. And why would they sign-off
the stream earlier? I don`t think before or after 0700 it were really
TOMBS.

While I`m at it, I search the entire program sked for any secular
nuggets: there are none except SW Radiogram, and a few titles looking
more political than gospical. See coverage map with tech data; the %20
is merely a blank space, why?:
http://winb.com/Coverage%20Map.html
BTW, Aoki still shows numerous DRM stretches on WINB from 7330 to
15750, which were canceled months ago! It was never clear what
programming? was behind that. It was odd DRM, half audio, half data?
Not now in EiBi or HFCC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
