** ALGERIA. 17600, July 3 at 2204, poor S7/S9 direct sounds French,
presumed Ifrikya FM running past nominal 2200* -- maybe for hours as
last logged at 0054 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA [and non]. 11950, July 3 at 0031, RHC in English, VG signal
into Brasília remote, but somewhat muffled audio, plus YL accent =
hard to understand; later OM cites Granma, official Commie newspaper
named for a boat named for someone`s grandmother; really. No signals
yet on real English frequency 6000, nor others where it often shows,
9700 and 15230. Hit this while tuning 25m for RNA Brasil local sig
which yesterday was wandering around band; but 6180 is on now. 11950,
of course, is never a scheduled English frequency for RHC, but so
what? The Other Side: ``Cuba: a country hijacked by politicians hijacked by the military
Who would have imagined that the seven trumpets of the Castroist
Apocalypse would not be heard sounding from an American aircraft
carrier, but rather from the MINFAR General Staff's band?

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 5025, July 3 at 0702, R. Rebelde with S9+30/40 of dead air in
Spanish. Something`s always wrong at RadioCuba (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** CUBA. 6000, July 3 at 0705, RHC deadair again except for somewhine,
S9+15/25. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SAUDI ARABIA. 11935, July 3 at 1723, huge buzz with no program
audible, S9+5/10 into UTwente. Synch mode stepping up and down 5 kHz
lands on different spots: .840, .721, .082, .083, .841 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17855, Wed July 3 at 2200, token English from SNR, S9+20/30,
preview feature to be about Andy Warhol exhibition commemorating his
visit to Spain - yet another totally aural report about a totally
visual medium. 2201.5 news starts with record tourism increase of
13.6% compared to a year ago, in quantity and gigaeuros spent (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.019, July 3 at 2159, VOT IS, S9+10/20 direct but
insufficient vs noise level. 2218 into UTwente when measured further
above frequency than usual, about the history of sunglasses starting
with XII century China, 2221 outro as `Unscripted Twists of Fate`, a
new feature? ``always-by-your-side`` promo. 2222 song. 2226 `The
Middle East and Turkey` on the religious basis for US unconditional
support of Israel, i.e. explaining Christian evangelism. 2238 `Sports
Panorama`. 2244 multi-lingual ID filler reel. 2251 ``with-you-every-
hour`` promo. 2252 s/off ignoring SW: do they really have more
listeners direct off satellite than SW?? Something`s awry at Ankara.
2252.6 IS. 2256 pause and restart IS with German IDs until 2258*
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO on IRRS changes: ``Hi Glen[n], Hope
you're doing well. We have a new program starting next Sunday. Because
of this update, we'll need to adjust some of your repeat times on our
stations. Here’s the new schedule for WOR on IRRS, effective July 7,
2024: [gh changed CET to UT:] - SAT 23:30 UT streaming on IRN
- SUN 19:00 UT on 1323 kHz + streaming on IRN

or
https://nexus.org/mp3 Thanks for understanding, and we hope you enjoy the new lineup. Take
care and best 73s, Alfredo -- Alfredo E. Cotroneo, CEO, NEXUS-Int'l
Broadcasting Association`` So the return to one airing on SW has been short-lived: was Sunday
0930 UT on 9510. The Fri 2030 UT should continue to present the first
airing of each WOR, not the last. That, Sat and and Sun are unchanged,
but Tuesday is new. WORLD OF RADIO 2249 monitoring: missed checking Tuesday July 2 at 2330
on WRMI 9395 and SW Radio, Germany, 3975. Anyone hear them? Confirmed Wednesday July 3 at 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001
S9+15/20 and slightly behind, 3975.004 S9+10/15 into UTwente. Also confirmed Wednesday July 3 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490 -73 Hz =
7389.927, S7/S9 into Maryland SDR. Next: 0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;

woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. 9955, Wed July 3 at 0648, once again tonight, this
WRMI is still on air contrary to websked - not RFI in Spanish as
previously heard, but music only, fill? First, sort of ``island``
music, then ``HOA``. 0700 no ID break, but still immediately into
Polish Radio External Service, via WRN, in English. Also light pulse
jamming audible direct. The Cuban commies have no love lost for
countries which overthrew the yoke of Soviet oppression. Also too
close for comfort to 9960 VANUATU (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) 5010 WRMI at 0700 July 3 is also still on air as uncheduled. Next
check at 1508, 9955 is still on air JBA, yet another anomaly (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5890, Wed July 3 at 0703, WWCR-4 is on with gospel music,
huge dirty signal of S9+45/50. Is it TOMBS? Not // 5850 WRMI. Sked
updated as of July 1, still claims 5890 is OFF M-F at 05-12, while
nothing but TOMBS on weekends. Of course this also activates the
leapfrog mixing product on 5980 whenever both 5890 and 5935 are on the
air, another 45 kHz beyond. But we don`t hear any reverse on 5845
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. DXMAP shows Es paths between OK and California, so I go
hunting on caradio, July 3 at 1958 UT. Instead, tropo boosts are up
from Tulsa, Wichita areas while OKC signals are diminished, and I
identify no Es. 100.7 at 1958, ``101 Country, KPNC Ponca City`` OK, normally inaudible
vs local 100.9. 107.9 at 1959, ``U.S. 107.9, ``Winfield, Wichita`` and somewhere
else:

AMERICAN COUNTRY 93.5 at 2035, ``Power 93.5, Wichita``, hip-hop. This a surprise as the

constant CCI, at 2049 maybe mentions Kansas, in weather? But the only
KS on 93.3 are two translators in far Manhattan and Liberal. And the
only other OKies are 7 translators or LP. What could this be? Seems
too constant and weak to be Es. 92.7 at 2049, ``The Pulse,`` Kansas lottery. Must be this, but slogan
change, or just a fleeting program reference?
