Have not heard a sign of it for over a week; not that II miss it. Is there anything about this at http://www.wrnoworldwide.com/ ? Of course not! But webcast is running June 12 at 0440 in English, and headed by this astounding claim: ``Today, one out of every six people in the world owns a shortwave radio and another 40% have Internet access``.

We can hardly wait for the flat-earthers to start programming as the Super-stition. 5130.437, June 12 at 0157, WBCQ also on here, also dead air and still at 0217 recheck; maybe modulated earlier for UT Wed ham show?
