** BRAZIL. 9665.102, Jan 4 at 2322, RVM good sig but this far
off-frequency (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** JAPAN [non]. 5800, Jan 4 at 0239, WRMI in English with ``Backstory
of Japanese Landmarx - Mount Takao`` I can`t imagine anystation but
NHK emitting such, and in fact, the WRMI skedgrid for 5800 on System
D, at 0200-0300 UT Saturdays only is ``World Radio Network`` -- and
guess what, WRN NAm stream at 0230-0300 Tue-Sat is NHK World Radio
Japan! So they are back on air to NAm in English, and probably don`t
even care, know it or ask for it, and for only 30 minutes (or less)
per week unless there happen to be another NHK spot of WRN fill onto
WRMI. At 0200-0230 it`s Deutsche Welle (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MADAGASCAR. 9754.97v, Jan 4 at 0342, Spanish, which was mystifying
some reporters, who overlooked that La Voz Alegre, as that service is
named by Madagascar World Voice, had recently moved off 6180 to avoid
Cuba and Brazil, a good idea, for the bihour in Spanish at 0200-0400.
La Voz Alegre was also one of the programmmes deleted with WWCR-1 as
Alan Roe reported. I was not aware it was on WWCR too, or whether it`s
really the same.
The sign-off of 9755 at 0358 mentioned World Christian Broadcasting,
and various contact info, altho I heard no mention of Madagascar. Such
offfrequenciness has become typical of MWV (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 27184.5 approx., Jan 4 at 2300, Enid CB pirate heard
again after a long absence, relaying // 105.5 K288FX, FM translator of
KYLV 88.9 K-Love OKC during praise music. Lots of QRM and various hets
from skippers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Pre `AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, UT Sat Jan 4 at 0049 via NH SDR:
3265 & 5130 OFF. 6160 -67 Hz = 6159.933, S9+10 with music instead of
TOMBS which has been expelled from 6160; the 6160 sked now shows at
0000-0100 UT Sat, `Cruisin Radio with Arthur Burton` - no apostrophe
and no Z in Cruisin! 7490 -77 Hz = 7489.923 with usual FKB g.h., S7/S9
with usual ACI splatter from 7495 USAGM but only until 0100*. By 0100,
5130 -22 Hz = 5129.978 is on and has joined // 7490- for `AAAWWW`,
first interjexion in `WTO` theme being ``What the Hell is that?``.
0103; ``it`s 2025, first program of new year``, vows to play more
music in format change - music that you will not hear anywhere else on
US radio stations. First song at 0105, but what is it? At 0110 points
out that 6160 has lots of time for lease now as BS is exclusively on
7490.
Also, this is important: Area 51 has just decided to go back to 5130
as the name would imply, ex-6160 already this weekend, with a
shortened schedule. That means no more WOR at 0400 UT Mondays, but
Larry Will says will still be on webcast only. See separate notice.
0119, datestamp as 3 January 2025. 0121 another raunchy song, ``The
Bitch Came Back`` including F-bombs. At 0200, after wishful thinking
prayer, Hal Turner on 7490, and 5130 into music until cutoff at 0208*.
I think 6160 was now also carrying AAAWWW as on the sked, instead of
something else until last week, but not paying attention to it (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. ``WBCQ Area 51: frequency and schedule changes --- Sat, Jan
4 at 9:53 PM --- Hello all, With the new year we are making some
changes to our Area 51 service. Effective 4 January 2024 we are moving
all of our programming from 6160 KHz to 5130 KHz. In addition to the
frequency change, we are reducing our broadcast schedule by two hours.
Our new schedule is Saturday and Sunday 7-11 PM US eastern time
(Sunday and Monday 0000-0400 UTC).
We really dislike having to drop the 11-midnight hours but increased
transmission costs and lack of sustaining donations are to blame. If
we are able to get more regular contributions we will consider
expanding the service in the future. You can donate to us via Paypal
at radio@zappahead.net
The Area 51 webcast is available 24 hours a day at
http://splatterbox.us/area51
Thanks, Lw`` (Larry Will) Viz.:

** U S A. 9265, Jan 4 at 0743, WINB is on!, S6/S8 in English; sounds
the same as 5850 WRMI which is TOM but not BS preaching, maybe Pastor
Rice? Not checked on second receiver to make sure // but would never
be synchronized. WINB program sked dated Dec 22 shows it closing every
night at 0500! Not back on until 1904 weekdays, 1104 Sundays, 1304
Saturdays, always starting with Overcomer. Of course, still not
accounted for at
https://overcomerministry.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/RadioSchedule4-16-24.pdf
from last April, and in EDT/UT, altho some changes must have been made
since then such as deleting 6160 WBCQ. This expansion may have been
inspired by TOMBS` removal overnight from 6160- WBCQ; will it be every
night? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
