** BRAZIL. 9664.976, Dec 16 at 0709, RVM with music, then bird calls,
S5/S7 but always good modulation level, and almost on-frequency lately
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 6060, Dec 16 at 0720, RHC S9 of dead air; and 6165, S9+20 of
dead air. Cannot tell whether the DA is in Spanish or correct English.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5025, Dec 16 at 0722, R. Rebelde with music at S9+20, but no
show on 10050; no RHC 5040 & 10080 either. Something`s always wrong at
RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** EGYPT. 9439.995, Dec 16 at 2145, R. Cairo S9+15/25 into UTwente
with humbuzz and extremely distorted music modulation; have they no
shame? Something`s always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** INTERNATIONAL INTERNET. As I feared, it seems there will be no new
Winter Solstice Paul Winter performance this year; rather, this:

enjoying a sequence of trax via https://solsticeconcert.com/ (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, Dec 16 at 0730, JBA carrier from R. Kiribati,
with heavy splash from 840 WHAS, presumably a regular music break
during C2CAM. No other 9/kHz split TP or TA carriers detected (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** NIGERIA. 7255-, Dec 16 at 0715, no signal from VON (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** ROMANIA. 9440, Dec 16 at 0711, German, S6/S9 with flutter. It`s RRI
via Tsiganeshti this semihour only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Dec 16 at 2304, token English from REE M/W/F is
already upwrapping news and into features: first, about a new
Cervantes center/institute in LA/Hollywood which has just opened,
unlike the other ones in US at Chicago, Albuquerque, Harvard and
Seattle. Much about promoting Spanish language and culture, especially
to the 50 megaSS now in USA, expected to balloon to 111M in some
future year I missed. 2311 song break. 2312 pt 2 of an interview with
a Dr Peabody of WHO Europe about the three respiratory viruses now
infecting Europe. 2320, brief report from Lebanon correspondent on how
NGOs are performing Xmas magic. 2322 REE asks for contacts via email
or a multidigit whatsapp. 2323, final part of series about Spanish
stupidballgame players who have made history. I am simulistenng to
TURKEY q.v. which has defaulted to music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 5960.003, Dec 16 at 2301, TRT is S9+40/45 into UTwente but
NOT in English, not even talking like news on hour, rather presumed
Turkish music for the rest of the hour, with occasional very brief
announcements which sound like Turkish or at least Turkic. Axually
this is a quite enjoyable concert, a respite from the attempted
English shows requiring one to strain to understand them. Maybe lost
feed and instead plugged into one of the domestic channels.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler and/or awry at Ankara. At 2355
& 2356 two very quick drops in transmission, but right back on as if
attempting to turn it off without success. After pause, 0000 still on
with timesignal and into Turkish? talk, news? Finally does go off and
stay off at 0003.6* Dec 17, uncovering as always the XJPBS from East
Turkistan, std denunciation. No extra German tonight. Since this was
mostly music and SPAIN q.v. mostly talk, I had no problem listening to
both at same time, altho some cannot tolerate such ``cacophony``
