Subject: [WOR] Glenn Hauser log roundup April 2-9, 2020SAUDI ARABIA [and non]. April 2 from 1812, via UTwente SDR, I cycle thru the registered frequencies at this hour in HFCC B-19, since there is nothing, yet? for A-20, not even an ARS page in the broadcasters` list; and why is it Arabie Saoudite? O, yeah, English is a nothing language for this SWBC, merely imagining 5 hours of it from 1600 on 9840, so I check that first: 9840, April 2 at 1812, ME music but Voice of Turkey ID in German at a time it is supposed to appear, rather than after 2300 on 9830 failing to turn off after English should it occasionally succeed.
Otherwise presume some are axually SA without digging deeper: 9580, nothing 6100, algo, Arabic from Jeddah scheduled but is anything from Jeddah? 9555, Arabic, mentions A-S; ACI from plus side 9675, Turkish 9870, Arabic JBA 11820.044, Arabic -- still not audible in OK 11915, Arabic much weaker 11930, Spanish from OCB mainly, maybe CCI SA 13720, nothing but noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2028)SAUDI ARABIA. 17615.064, April 6 at 1447, S5-S6 with music probably Qur'an, as this always-offfrequency makes a showing despite no registrations and nothing audible on 17660, 17705 or 17895; would be the OSOB except for JBA 17630 CRI Mali. Others have monitored extensively to confirm most but not all previously scheduled KSA broadcasts are still running, notably WOR iog members Dr Hansjoerg Biener and Wolfgang Bueschel; not including French, per Antoello Napolitano: "Any idea for the French broadcast scheduled at 1355-1600 on 17660 kHz? I tried a number of times in the last days but nothing was detected. This has been quite regular for years so I am wondering if they stopped broadcasting in French (the only European language still used by Saudi Radio on shortwaves) or simply moved to a new frequency. I confirm, instead, the broadcast in Indonesian on 21670 kHz heard here in the South Italy on 4th April at 1017" (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
