** OKLAHOMA. 341-MCW kHz, March 2 at 0215 UT, ND beacon EI, Enid, is
back on! Had been off since February 9, leaving the channel to OIN
and/or DNI in KS & TX. Here`s a reception map for EI:

That leaves 255 SW Stillwater still AWOL, as well as for much longer,
515 PN Ponca City (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** PANAMA. 18150-USB, March 1 at 2015* tune-in just in time for HP9SAM
to go QRT. No fonetix, thought at first HP9FAM, but there is none,
rather per QRZ.com: ``HP9SAM Panama flag Panamá, Stephen A. Myers,
Pocri, Province of Los Santos 0758, Panama --- The town is 1/2 the
distance between Las Tablas and the surfer hangout of Pedasi. It is
3/4 the way down the Azuero peninsula on the Eastern side. This is
literally a "cow town" as the cows are driven through town 2 or 3
times a year to change pastures.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** PERU. 4775.05, March 2 at 0150, lively vocal music vs lite CODAR,
S8-S9 better signal than usual from presumed R. Tarma; 0158 Spanish
announcement probably full ID, including ``1,110 kHz``; 0200 some
Andean music. Checking the Progreso Cuban 4765 spurblob range,
4781-4785 so not a problem for this, but when I get back to 4775+ at
0205, it`s off, just when I was going to refine its frequency to third
digit. Is 1110 a match for their MW? No, per
http://www.radiotarma.com/informaciongeneral/
it`s 1510 but in VP reception, quinientos easily mistaken for ciento.
WRTH shows evening span of 0.5 kW OCX4E on weekdays as 2200-2400 only.
No het as Brazilian is long gone from almost same frequency. BTW, WRTH 2021 page 315 shows 5 F.Pl = future plan Peruvian SW
stations on: 3270, 3295, 4800, 4935, 6090 --- be on the listen-out
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SWAZILAND. 9584.968, March 1 at 1510, African language S9-S5 and
off-frequency-minus. Aoki shows TWR Africa, Manzini in Malagasy M-F at
1455-1525; same span Sat/Sun it`s French (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2075 monitoring: confirmed Monday
March 1 from 1900:58 on IRRS 7290 via Bulgaria via UTwente SDR
Holland; S8-S9 with usual heavy bilateral splash. Earlier, carrier on
at *1853:22; IRRS sign-on with Milano PO Box at 1859:50, Feature Story
News headlines at 1900:28. Within a few minutes, considerable fadedown
making it really unlistenable, skip lengthening? So I try an Iceland
SDR, but that`s too far, very weak. Then at 1915, Carlow, Ireland,
KiwiSDR, which is just right, S9+10/15. Next: 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW
