I have contacted the local newspaper on the island of Amrum (https://www.amrum-news.de/)
asking if there will be any radio transmission this year. I just received this answer from the editor-in-chief, Peter Lückel:

"Unfortunately we have no knowledge of that. Probably not, otherwise we would definitely have received a message. "

Nevertheless, I will give it a try this afternoon on 15215 kHz.

Following up on Richard Langley's question whether there would be another broadcast of Radio Öömrang,
I tried to call Arjan Koelzow who sponsored the yearly programme but the telephone number was unavailable.
I also phoned Media Broadcast (both "Kundenbetreuung" and "Presse") but nobody answered the call (just a music loop)..
There is no broadcast listed by HFCC, Media Broadcast or TDF (where I only found a schedule of 2021).
So we would have to wait and see or rather listen.

WRMI, because: https://www.facebook.com/wrmiradio

``WRMI Radio Miami International --- Important Notice: On Thursday,
February 20, Florida Power and Light Company will be connecting new
transformers for WRMI. This is the end of a months-long process to
replace the station's original transformers, which date from the late
1970's. The new transformers have been installed, and this should
provide more reliable electrical power and fewer power outages.
However, on February 20 FP&L will have to remove the old transformers
using a crane, and then connect the new transformers to us. This is a
lengthy process requiring a lot of equipment and personnel, so they
told us to expect to be without power from approximately 1300 to 2200
UTC. During this time we will be off the air on all frequencies,
except possibly 7730 kHz and our 9955 kHz live stream (www.wrmi.net).
We will return to the air on all frequencies as soon as the work is
finished. Thanks for your understanding.`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1520, Feb 20 at 0745 UT, C&W mixing with KOKC talk at almost
equal level, quickly IDing as KRHW. That`s Sikeston MO, U7
5000/1600/CH 5000. U7 means three different direxional antenna
patterns. Normally inaudible at night here, as night pattern is very
tight north/south from SE MO.
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=N
Day pattern is much broader yet with a notch toward OKC. Maybe we are
far enough away from that angle.
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=D
Critical hours pattern similar to day, but not so deep a notch:
https://radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/pat?call=KRHW&service=AM&h=C
Radio locator shows address a PO box in Mt Vernon IL, which is nowhere
near Sikeston MO: 171 km = 106 stmi apart (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 810.58, Feb 20 at 0710 and still 0748 UT, JBA carrier
hetting 810.00 WHB is back; had not heard it for a few nights since
Feb 15. This is on E/W longwire into NRD 545. But I can also detect it
on handheld D808, in order to DF it tuned to 810 USB: again, approx.
100/280 degrees from Enid, or slightly more clockwise (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2283)

TURKEY. As first reported on Monday 17th in the WOR iog mail list by John Jurasek (VORW) and Craig Tyson, the English Service of TRT The Voice of Turkey have resumed their programming - that is, the broadcasts are no longer simply relays of TV audio of TRT World. I listened on Tuesday and also confirmed that the regular English presenters are back with VOT programming. It seems that the programme schedule may have changed slightly compared to what was heard before their hiatus with "Unscripted Twists of Fate" (previously heard on Wednesdays) and a new programme "The First Quarter of the Millenium".

For anyone who's lost track of their English frequency schedule, it is:

a.. 1330-1425 13635
b.. 1730-1825 9660
c.. 1930-2025 6050
d.. 2130-2225 9610
e.. 2300-2355 5960
f.. 0400-0455 6125 7285
I'll update and re-upload the programme schedule to https://app.box.com/s/kbdxb4c5lwpju0kpoi27aiwc35br2g2a (or for short: http://tinyurl.com/shortwaveprograms) as soon as I am able to.
