** OKLAHOMA. FM bandscan on caradio circa 2045 UT Feb 14:
90.9 not // 91.1, both Air1, 90.9 KOKF Edmond, 91.1 KKRD Enid.
Normally they are // but not synch. One with talk, other with praise
music; then both with different praise musix. Also getting perfect
$ tereo signal on 91.3, new? Guess not, must be bleed from 91.1.

105.5, local K288FX translator is OFF; audiblizing non-local signal

** U S A. (101.1), Feb 14 at 1708 UT, I`m listening online to KSFR
Santa Fe NM, as usual during Friday `Jazz Et Cetera` show, ``Fridays
9:00 am - Noon Hosted by Helga Ancona - Every Friday morning dj Helga
Ancona brings you music from all over the world, including jazz,
classical and an hour of Brazilian music`` which is always at 18-19
UT. Helga mentions that KSFR is now heard on 91.3 in northern NM, via
KSQR. History page shows it:

https://www.ksfr.org/ksfr-history
``2/15/2025 KSFR adds a repeater in Questa, NM and KSFR programming is
now also broadcast on KSQR, Questa, 91.3 MHz``

WTFDA FMDB already has it with 3.0 kW H&V, minus 99m HAAT, no further
details. FCC LCMS shows 2.2 kW ERP, elevation 2396 meters.

Questa is site of an ex-molybdenum mine; ``The name is derived from
the Greek 'molybdos' meaning lead`` which became a Superfund site.
https://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/csitinfo.cfm?id=0600806
A cousin of mine once worked at that mine. We`ve driven by it on Hwy
38 west of Red River, part of the Enchanted Circle Scenic Byway.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enchanted_Circle_Scenic_Byway
It supposedly takes 8 hours to drive there from Enid.

In English it`s pronounced KWES-tuh, but I wonder how they handle it
in Spanish, or respell Cuesta? Answer:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Questa,_New_Mexico
``Questa was originally named San Antonio del Rio Colorado. In 1883, a
U.S. postmaster changed its name to Questa.[4] The postmaster
misspelled the name, as it should have been spelled "Cuesta," which is
Spanish for "ridge" or "slope." Despite the error, the village has
kept the name`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 9960, Feb 14 at 0656, RV is S6/S8 direct in Bislama with
one keyword copied, ``b`long``, the genitive indicator.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bislama
At 0659 recheck, 7260 instead, with USB tuning, S9+10/15 on meter, but
axually less copiable since that includes a lot more noise. In AM mode
tuning, S7/S9 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
