** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2212 monitoring: ``From: Richard
Lemke, St. Albert, Alberta, Canada, the desk of Richard’s listening
Post, Radio: JRC NRD-535 HF, Antenna: random long wires in the trees.
Dear Glenn: Update, I did hear 5850, 9395, confirming WOR #2212, WRMI:
5850, 0133, 0146, 0159 (55433), October 14 UTC 2023 [Sat]

73’s, Richard, October 18, 2023 10:49 am``

Confirmed Tuesday October 17 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, VG S9+35 into

** U S A. 9330, Oct 18 at 1511, World`s Last Chance Radio on WBCQ-6,
in pseudo-scientific discussion of how the earth is flat, as looking
at the stars surely confirms, Polaris visible in the south, the stars
being very nearby in the firmament. So ridiculing them as ``Flat
Earthers`` is still very much appropriate. Allan Weiner would never do
that but often reminds us he is a ``man of science`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5890, Wed Oct 18 at 0654, WWCR-4 is on with unID gospel
huxter, not // 5850 WRMI so not TOMBS. This transmitter had been on
overnight only on UT Sat & Sun for TOMBS. WWCR-4 on 5890 could be on
anytime between 02 and 12. For axual scheduling, rather than 24/7
registered availability, we must look instead at the program
schedules.
The Oct 1 version still claims 5890 is OFF THE AIR, M-F 12-7 am
Central, misconverted to UT as 06-13 rather than 05-12. Could it be
something sked on another transmitter? NO, 5935 has University
Network, not that. 4840 is TOMBS, and 3215 is supposed to be OFF just
like 5890, altho I did not recheck 3215 at this time.

WWCR has already added B23 transmitter schedules, in two steps, the
first week Oct 29-Nov 5 while USA be still on DST; and then Nov 6
onward, off DST. Same old frequencies, but shifts in changeover times
for a few of them. 5890 will be available at 03-13 UT. On this xmtr
page it appears they get the CT/UT conversions correct, unlike on the
programming pages (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 15610, Oct 18 at 2226, RCC discussion in English, so WEWN is
back on; was AWOL last time I checked. S9+10 with squeal (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Oct 18 at 1512 UT, YL DJ on KLEY Wellington KS with
slogan in passing as ``The Wave``, NOT ``Red Dirt Country`` as in
2023-2024 NRC AM Log, and rock rather than country (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Oct 18 0657, S4/S5 talk from R. Vanuatu still here,
vanishes sometime after 0658. I don`t think they make any retuning
announcement, do they? Leaving listeners hanging unless they be
DXer-like, in the know (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search October 18 at
0111-0120 UT. This time on the NRD-545 which doesn`t tune in 9-kHz
steps - or if it can, I don`t know how; rather than the IC-R75, so I
have to manually go in USB to 1 kHz below some of them, and do get
some hits, not in exact order tuned: 684, 711, 774-2 beating, 855,
891, 909-strongest, 999-2, 1053, 1107 kHz. Likely from Spain, Western
Sahara, Algeria, UKQOGBANI (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 15299.87 approx., Oct 18 at 1514, JBA carrier direct as
I am checking for MiniTransAt. At 1521 I check UTwente, but it has an
S7 open carrier right on 15300.000 but rough. Was it a birdie? (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
