Logs
** FINLAND [and non]. Scandinavian Weekend Radio, almost-monthly
24-hour broadcast scheduled to start March 31 at 2100, for the ``first
Saturday`` in April, on two of: 5980/6170 & 11690/11720; 100 watts.

Checking UTwente at 2120+, 6169.991v, JBA S7/S8; 11689.93885/93884
quite steady until recheck of JBA lox on 11689.93187 - Per Aoki
nothing else scheduled now on either. But I`m mainly really listening
to `Behavior Night` on WBCQ webcast. As 7490 reception here would be
no better than Finland (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 96.9 FM, March 31 at 2038 UT, KQOB, far-right talker is
unusually off the air; back on at 2046 check. Maybe something to do
with wildfires breaking out north side of OKC due to extremely low
humidity, drought and high winds. In previous hour during repeat of
pre-Oscars `The Score` on 90.1 KUCO, interrupted twice for NWS
wildfire warnings. ``Critical Fire Danger`` over much of Oklahoma.

Later, on the KFOR ``4`` news at 2200, lots of wildfire coverage.
`Blew` away NBC Afternoonly News at 2230, not even displacing it to
backup KAUT ``43``. KWTV ``9`` is on the fires too but displaces CBS
News to backup KSBI ``52``. KOCO blows away ABC News, no known
alternative. Horrible blazes and damage seen from choppers, ground. 4
stuck with wall-to-wall until 2400 UT prime time. 5 and 9 were
partially back to programming by 2330.

Earlier around Enid, reduced visibility due to blowing dust, not
smoke. But Enid reported the highest wind gust, 75 mph, i.e. over
hurricane force. I did not experience that, myself.

Fires are generally in NE OKC, general area of the FM/TV VHF/UHF
antenna farm. However, KQOB, which pretends to be an OKC station but
really licensed to Enid, site is further north, west of Crescent. But
there are also fires in Logan County; if not directly threatened by
blazes, sites may lose juice as powerlines fall and ignite more fires.
This site I had bookmarked,
https://www.fireweatheravalanche.org/fire/
is useless, showing some fires elsewhere in OK but nothing around
OKC!

BTW, WTFDA FM Database still outdated about KQOB claiming it`s // 1640
KZLS, which many months ago stopped, as KZLS became // 1390 KCRC with
stupid sportstalk. Would not be surprised if other OKC FM/TV signals
be interrupted. Never heard the TVs mention the antenna farm (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** PERU. 4820, March 31 at 0643, JBA music, improved from JBA carrier
only, and nothing now from 4810 Chazuta. The new Radio Integridad IDs
reported here turn out to be a station relayed by what is really Radio
Senda Cristiana, OAW6C, in Cotahuasi, Arequipa, according to research
by Ron Howard et al., explained in detail in the WOR iog. This
missionary ministry has been going for some years on FM around Perú
fs, but adds SW for increased coverage. They hand out anti-DX
fix-tuned radios to a captive audience (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Fri Mar 31 at 2205, SNR token English, NAm frequency
on air today, S8/9+10 into Maryland SDR, feature Justin Coe
interviewing a German `cellist, and the first recording of a concerto
in F by Enric Casals, brother of Pao a.k.a. Pablo --- they were really
Catalan. Also with someone from the orchestra involved; too brief bits
of the axual music amid and to fill. Almost as good on 15520, slightly
weaker on 17715 and 11670, all unintended for us (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U K [non]. 9440.000, March 31 at 2158, checking for anything from
Cairo, instead weak S7/S9 tone, 2200 TS and Newsroom, i.e. BBCWS as
now sked for one hour via USAGM Tinang, PHILIPPINES. Asking for
trouble: perhaps they be unaware of the Cairo mess? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** U S A [non]. 13820, March 31 at 1502, JBA carrier amid residual
pulse jamming on the Martí B-season-only frequency, so someone is
oblivious to the danger of possible 24/7/365 Cuban jamming against no
OCB. Aoki shows only 13820 now is VOA Deewa Radio in Pashto at
1300-1700 via KUWAIT (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2183 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
