** SPAIN. Wed Oct 20 at 2200 it`s time for another token English broadcast from REE, so I`m prepared to listen via Maryland SDR: but NO signal on 17855 for NAm, nor 15520 backwards for ME. 11940 for SAm is S9+5, much better than 11670 for Af JBA --- trouble is, 11940 is still extremely distorted, so REE loses this and surely many other listeners; as first item is about ETA. Instead I default to TURKEY, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 9830, Oct 20 at 2201, VOT is VG S9/+20 into Maryland SDR showing frequency offset +17 Hz, nor is there any RTTY QRM! Since SPAIN struck out, I`m devoting this semihour to listening to TRT English in detail. News about: attacks in Syria, COVID vax rate in Australia, NK subs, until 2207.5 music break. 2208, `Review of the Turkish Press``, about TRNC matters [no separate review of foreign press this time]. 2210, that COVID PSA - maybe I zoned out but did they finally delete the part about there being no vaccine yet? 2212 music break. 2216 plugs the 41 languages of TRT, on TV? And quickly into `Feeling Supreme - Healthy Life` with detailed recipes for various natural remedies for influenza, with winter oncoming, involving such as ginger tea, rose hip tea, a quantity for something based on the size of a Turkish lira coin --- oh2, where is mine? 2223 music break. 2228, `Weekly Commentary` turns over to YL announcer, all the previous by the same guy with the difficult name. She is harder to understand, seems to be about virtualhub? Anyhow at 2230 it`s time for NBC Nightly [sic] News (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A.
