** CANADA [and non]. 332 MCW kHz, Oct 11 at 0705 UT, QT, 1000 watt ND
beacon at Thunder Bay ON, after months, finally able to JB copy it vs
noise level, marginally improved conditions, and underneath it, IC,
400 watts at Wichita KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 13735 & 15300, Oct 11 circa 1522, no signal from
MiniTransAt, direct or via UTwente, suspected suspended during
Canarias layover before resuming late in Oct; but need to check if any
pro-forma appearance at *1500 here or on 6100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** ISRAEL [non]. 7570, Oct 11 at 2330, Israel Radio, `KAN` can now be
heard well across N America on SW, as it so happens that WRMI has
changed to WRN relay at 23-24 UT Mon-Fri. Don`t you believe the Xmtr
11 frequency sked atop which claims this hour be RAE Argentina. You`d
never know exactly what it contains, but Dave White, NC, discovered
Israel on Oct 10. It is on the WRN sked for 2330. Seems like the whole
broadcast is news about Topic A, mostly one anchor but with
axualities, interviews. Timecheck at intro was 8 pm = 17 UT, when one
could also hear it on their own stream. Since it was the one-hour 17
UT broadcast repeated, as I expected, WRN chops it short at 2359. WRMI
gotta get back in the TOMBS at 0000. All the daily u.o.s. times for
Israel Radio on WRN to NAm: 0400-0500, 0800-0830, 1400-1430 Sun,
1700-1800, 2330-2400 UT. Some of the others might also be on WRMI
stream if not SW, unresearched yet (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 101.5, Oct 11 circa 2010 UT on caradio, still $ tereo
deadair in Spanish from KOCD Okeene. Radio Salvación forgot to turn it
off in January. Still paying the fluid bill? (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)

** SPAIN. 17855, Wed Oct 11 at 2200, token English from SNR, VG
S9+10/20 into Maryland SDR. Says Thu Oct 12 will be Spain`s national
day. Don`t they know that Estados Unidos has decreed it has to be on
lunes? After news at 2207, more about that, had been called in Spain
``Dia de la hispanidad``. Other names for it now in different Latin
American countries, ``Día de la raza`` in Argentina, Chile y México -
but which ``the race`` does this refer to? Elsewhere Columbus is no
hero, and native peoples are more celebrated. But this is only intro
to main feature, an interview about Flamenco (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 11785, Oct 11 at 2200 and periodic chex past 2230 on
UTwente and Virginia remotes, no show of VOT English to us.
Something`s always erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 26110 NBFM, Oct 11 at 1535, KMK282 at KOVR `13` Stockton /
Sacramento CA is active, JBA direct and Maryland SDR; 1612, slightly
better at Missouri SDR, but mostly unreadable talk, still 1630.
Improved by 1637. Following tips to the WOR iog: ``Listening to KMK282
right now (10/11 1540 UTC) - 26110 KHz NFM. Signal is peaking around
S7 with deep fades here in central NC. [At 1549:] Now peaking at times
to S9+30 but with deep fades. Regular peaks at S9+10. Doug White
KA5ETS``. DXinfocentre.com has huge roster of such stations, miscalled
STLs, but we never hear nor see reported any of the others (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13605, 11930, 11860, Oct 11 at 1519 NO signals from R.
Martí, nor 13820 expected for B-season. No jamming audible either,
just roar on 11860 from Sa`udi Yemenia. What`s going on at Grimesland,
power failure? 1659 recheck, now 13605 on and nominal. Some urgent
repairs were needed in the antenna switch bay, so had to turn them off
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2211 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
October 10 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+10/20 into Missouri SDR.

** U S A. 9955, Oct 11 at 0646 check, WRMI // 9395 with TOMBS minus
BS, some other g.h.: is he ever identified by name?
Frequency/transmitter grid does show TOMBS; while System B, otherwise
mostly 9955, is on internet only with WRN; while individual System E
program grid, nothing but TOMBS, lax 9955 at this hour. Something`s
odd at Okeechobee (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, Oct 10 at 2359 tune-in, WTWW with Scriptures for
America outro so presumably started circa 2300 as originally planned,
says from the PPP archive; from 0000 UT Oct 11 into ``Ancient Word
Radio on WTWW`` and gospel rock --- ancient?! 0003 ID again and hymn.
Followed by this:

``Hi Glenn, Regarding WTWW, I logged them here in Hope BC last night
at 0212 (Tuesday evening 1912 PDT) until the top of the hour with
Thunderbolt West Media with Jim Calhoun playing various country tracks
he seemed to really like with occasional mentions of WRMI and Radio
Angela. I don't recall hearing him mention WTWW at any time. He did
give out a postal address in Hershey Nebraska for donations. At 0259 I
heard an ID as Into Ancient Word Radio with legal ID. Signal was not
too bad, mauve a SINPO 44434 at best. Tony Pavick`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15555 USB, Oct 11 at 1520, WJHR gospel huxter back up from
LSB yesterday (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 11 at 0642, RV at S4/S5 with island music. Much
more detail this date from Ron Howard:

``9960, Radio Vanuatu, Oct 11, from 0525 through 0658* UT; the usual
programming; some of the pop songs played today: Toto, "Africa," Alan
Jackson, "Summertime Blues," Foreigner - "I Want To Know What Love
Is," etc.; 0630-0638, with intro/closing with the usual indigenous drums
for the service messages segment; today giving contact info for anyone
entitled to any property or owed money from the estate of someone who
recently died in 2023. Reception up here is certainly better than 7260
and infinitely better than 3945.

My audio: https://app.box.com/s/10joaf3zop71d0ts21bxybft7v9ql7f6 :
- Indigenous drums ending the service messages segment.
- Announcement for a job opening, in English.
- Promo in Bislama for TV coverage of the quarter finals of the Rugby
World Cup.
- Singing station ID ("Radio Vanuatu . . Kingdom of Tonga . . Solomon
Islands . . Voice of Papua New Guinea . . Radio Vanuatu")
