BW Tower is a sad case, originally an office building including for an uncle of mine, later vacant and trying to repurpose as hotel but still apparently shuttered. Now it`s not even funxioning as a broadcast tower. Could be engineers are having trouble getting into the `penthouse` transmitter room and roof (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR) ** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Feb 14 at 2300, token English from SNR, VG S9+30/50! into Georgia SDR; still NO signal on 12030, JBA on 17715 & 17755. 2301 news leads with the noise Drumpf makes is not going over well in Spain. 2308 Lebanon correspondentess about Drumpf`s Gaza plan not welcomed. 2310 interview a prof from London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, about climate change leading to 2.3 megadeaths.

Last Saturday he flew from Bangor back to Fla and everyone on the flight was coughing, hacking and sneezing, so knew he was going to catch something, which he did with sore throat, nasal, chest and larynx. And still not feeling well or with good voice. Trimulcasting with 9330 he says again and this is true. Wants to play love songs, 0111 Love Potion #9; 0114 trimul on 9, 7 and 5. 0124 says that again, email invited. Wandering conversation about radio, etc., and tho in same studio as Angela, we hardly hear her, except when he asks what song she wants to play next, and she answers to him, not to us. 0139 date stamp as 14 of Feb. Says keeps WBCQ rates low by eliminating a lot of people, mostly automated except for 9330 SuperStition which must have someone running it 24/7, etc., etc. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 810.60, Feb 15 at 0641 UT, mystery carrier audible again against 810.00 WHB, KC, MO, not earlier in evening. I DF it again on the D808, roughly 100/280 to 105/285 degrees from Enid. Not up to checking multiple remotes this time except for Northern Utah #1 which heard it before and is hearing it again, but not enough to lock onto it separately from KSFO. At final check direct 0705, more like 810.59 kHz. Greg Hardison and Ron Howard checked CO remote for KLVZ Brighton [Denver] CO, and found it not off-frequency, but could its running IBOC have something to do with this?
