** AUSTRIA. John Figliozzi replies on the WOR iog to my 6155 log:
``OK, it’s not on HF and it’s not classical music… but those looking
for English language news from Austria will find plenty of it on the
bilingual (German/English) ORF domestic youth network fm4 streamed
over the Internet from: https://fm4.orf.at John Figliozzi`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 13650, April 8 at 2329, CRI relay `Portuguese` service of
music only is S9+20/30 but extremely suptorted. Something`s always
wrong at RadioCuba. Why in the world haven`t they just turned off this
failed service months ago? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MEXICO. 6185-, April 8 by 1907 UT, now I can pull a JBA carrier
slightly off-frequency-minus as a 2-megameter day-path remnant of
reactivated XEPPM (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 27186, April 8 at 1910 and still 2243 recheck, some lokel
yokel is jamming the prime CB frequency with continuous S9+10 buzz.
Well, there are plenty of other channels, all with zero activity
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830, April 8 at 2244, JBA signal presumed VOT active
today. Wonder if something else be erroneous at Emirler, like reduced
power, reception has been so poor lately even when on.

7275, April 9 at 0258, VOT IS & English IDs, fair via Alexandria SDR,
but undermodulated with some hum; timesignal one second late but may
have been internet delay. This time YL instead of usual OM announcer,
opening without full wrong English schedule but only ``this`` is the
1230 on 15450! plus satellite info; something`s always awry at Ankara;
into news of topic-V; 0307 enough already, into Turkish song. At least
no QRhaM to be heard (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2028 monitoring: confirmed Wednesday April 8
at 2100:20 on WBCQ 7490.1v, fair via Alexandria SDR.

Also confirmed UT Thu April 9 at 0100 on WRMI 7780, JBA in storm noise
level from along the Ohio Valley; good via Alexandria VA SDR; and not
via UTwente, now with this bad news in red:

``On April 8, the antenna seems to have developed a defect, so only
very few signals are still detectable. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic,
university buildings are closed, so it is currently unclear if and
when a repair can be attempted.``

WOR 2029 should be ready by early UT Fri April 10 and first American
SWBC at 2200 on WRMI 9955 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5970, April 8 at 2327, S9+10 of dead air; must be WEWN on
early from second Spanish transmitter not scheduled to start until
0000; first one is still on 12050, VP with music. BTW, HFCC shows they
also employ two different antennas, a 206 and a 218 respectively at 5
degrees difference in azimuth, and both 500 kW transmitters run at
only 100. I wonder if they are still operable if desired or affordable
at 500? IIRC they used to be registered as 350 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
