Hauser
** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, March 22 at 2252, LRA36 is S3/S6 into
Buenos Aires SDR - the Mendoza one is deaf, Spanish discussion back on
original frequency rather than other transmitter one kHz lower.
Without any advance notice this time, maybe a regular Wednesday
evenings, numerous reports of this had erupted on the WOR iog,
starting with Eric Fetters-Walp at 2012 UT via Montevideo SDR.
Apparently there was a break but came back on at 2207 per Arthur
Pozner. 2345 check here direct: no signal (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 12000, March 22 at 0624, S7/S9 of dead air, 2 x 6000 where
the dead air rates S9+30; and no others are still on so no 12120 as
last night. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 22 at 2227, this RHC is off. 11850 is on, S6/S9
of pointless suptorted JBM along with parasitic spur carrier on 11840,
the mirror on 11860 unable to compete with Martí and jamming. 11880
also off where English used to appear sporadically. Somethings` always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9440, March 22 at 2222 direct, S6/S9 of dead air, no doubt
another failure of R. Cairo to broadcast in English; something`s
always egregious in Egypt (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** JAPAN. 11630, March 22 at 2226, S4/S7 of Western classical
orchestral music, whence? NHK morning Japanese service at 21-23 to SE
Asia, off the back (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, March 22 at 0645, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati, as usual now, the only 9/kHz split audible in MW bandscan,
getting too late for Europe even if otherwise propagable (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 4015 USB, March 21 at 0257, weak S5 into northern
Utah SDR, nondescript rather repetitive music, still there past 0316,
0347, 0357. Russian-ethnic pirate восточная звезда [Vostochnaya
Zvezda] was logged here March 17 & 18, see my previous reports.
Probably still, but unlike before: never any ``московские вечера`` IS
à la маяк. Occasional brief bits of talk/conversation totally
unreadable even as to which language. I never heard before nor now the
Russian ID reported by others.

Since programming now is different, this could be some other pirate,
as no one has an exclusive claim to 4015. HFUnderground reports of
this have been very sparse lately. Wolverine Radio was also on 4015 at
some point, but tonight does not sound like that either.

Gary Pence, KM5X, has been monitoring this ``Eastern Star``
extensively via several remotes in California & Nevada, comparing
signal strengths, ``where it`s being heard and how well. Other
considerations are terrain and antenna type used`` by the remotes,
concluding that it`s not in southern Arizona as someone else
suggested: ``I think he has a terrain block he`s dealing with. I
personally think he`s running 40 or 50 watts. If it was more power it
would be a bigger circle of consistent reception. I think he is in
south central to southwest Nevada. So this is my circle of consistent
copy over time.`` Earlier Gary suggested SW Nevada, perhaps in the
Dyer/Piper Peak area right next to the California border: ``Hi Glenn,
this is not TDOA technology, just my personal opinion, ole school
DXing after 50 years hamming and common sense. Best guess
between those two points. 73s, Gary`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Wed March 22 at 2300 REE VG into Maryland for token
English, Justin starts by announcing new A23 total transmission
schedule but not making clear English will be one UT hour earlier.
Preview of feature topix: interview with amateur astrologer -
pass!Can`t waste time with nonsense. Over to Turkey (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** TURKEY [non]. 5960v, March 21 at 2314 & 2346 chex via UTwente: NO
signal from VOT English, just Chinese from XJPBS, East Turkistan, std
denunciation.

5960.003, revives March 22 from 2358 tune-in to IS blotting BBC, VG
into UTwente, 2300 sign-on and news including Ramadan will start
``Thursday`` meaning March 23, in most countries but several others
are waiting until Wednesday to decide whether to start it Thursday or
Friday --- but Wednesday is over already. All depends on official
local sightings of new moons, how quaint. 2309 `Review of Turkish
Press`. 2312 search & rescue team salutes. 2313 `Whipping Piles`, half
of world`s population to be obese by 2035y, per WHO. 2318 `Weekly
Commentary` read by heavy-accented YL, unlike Whipping Piles which was
by a more understandable YL. But atop the CCCCCCI undercurrent from
XJPBS. About China becoming a power broker, Iran/Sa`udi Arabia, etc.
2228 song. 2233 `Feeling Supreme/Healing Supring` on common cold, flu
and antibiotic treatments - not useful against viral causes;
recommends garlic, zinc, etc. 2340 songs. 2354 s/off with same
defective script as usual, but sounds like a new reading by same
announcer. 2355 IS, 2356 starts inserting German IDs and keeps going
after 2400 timesignal, s/on and news on a totally spurious but not
infrequent SW broadcast.

Note that since Türkei became Türkiye, the ``der`` has been eliminated
after ``Stimme``. So the new name even imposed on other languages,
must not be limited to one part of speech, proper noun.
Recep could not stand his domain being confused with a dumb? but tasty
bird. Yet in German there is no such confusion as the bird is a
*Truthahn*, nothing wrong with calling the country Türkei!

Strangely, during this hour I did not hear a single one of those
crutches, ``always at your side`` promos, nor even the 2-minute
multi-lingual ID filler reel (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2182 monitoring: confirmed Tuesday
March 21 at 2330 on WRMI 9395, S9+20/25 into Missouri SDR.

Also confirmed Wednesday March 22 at 2100 on WBCQ 7490-, S9 into
Maryland SDR. Next:

0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

New WOR 2183 should be ready for download early UT Fri March 24.

Full schedule including AM, FM, webcasts, satellite, podcasts:

Like our website, a noncommercial service for which financial support
is appreciated; this week from Joe Caberlin, VE1EJ, Port Colborne ON,
for some US$ to
Glenn Hauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA,
preferably by MO or check on a US bank.

One may also contribute via PayPal, not necessarily in US funds, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. Re 12050, WEWN Spanish, RCM, missing March 21 at 1540, I
also inquired of Glen Tapley: ``Still wondering about WEWN. People ask
me if it will ever resume English on SW; what should I tell them?
Glenn``

Glen Tapley replies: ``The transmitter is being repaired. Parts,
especially tubes, take much longer to order, have built and tested,
then received. Once all is received, installed, and tested, the
English transmission will resume. Sent from my iPhone`` (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

Tuesday, March 21 2023

Hauser
** CUBA. 12120, March 21 at 0646, RHC Spanish, hefty S9+10, enough to
shoulder aside the heavy RTTY infesting nearby. Of course, it`s 2 x
6060. But undermodulated and with CODAR QRM. I`ve often hunted for
this without any success, so now wonder if more than accidental
emission. Normally the most likely 2x from Cuba is 12000. Also
possible: 12200 & 12330 worth checking when the 6100 & 6165
fundamentals be on, or should be on. Something`s always wrong at RHC
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EAST TURKISTAN. 5960, March 21 at 0000, XJPBS joining CNR1 for
morning national anthem, but at 0002 also a clip of the Soviet Hymn, a
bit jarring, but that`s just covering Xi`s visit to Putin; via
UTwente, continued from TURKEY log. Standard denunciation (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FRANCE. 11800.085V, March 21 at 0650, weak S6/S9 signal way
off-frequency, i.e. DW in Hausa, at 0630-0700 via Issoudun: a site
emitting many imprecise frequencies, and this one is also varying
slightly as I try to measure it. These stick out in my bandscans at
1-kHz intervals in USB, producing a rumble or some pitch other than
1000 Hz when tuned 1 kHz below nominals (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 12050-12055-12060 DRM, Tue March 21 at 1540, surprised to
find DRM noise here, and also no AM signal on 12050, the last
remaining frequency of WEWN. Wonder if this be no coincidence, WEWN
cooperating with the DRM or possibly even emitting it? By the time I
check remotes in various parts of USA with DRM capability, nothing by
1552. Only then do I check the listings: none such in HFCC B22. But
EiBi & Aoki both show KTWR in DEM on 12055 in English at 1245-1300 &
1515-1545, both Tue/Wed/Thu/Fri only (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** GUAM. 15530.042, March 21 at 1533, hymn S7/S9: KSDA at 1530-1600 in
English or Tibetan per day of week. Unusual to find this one skewed so
far (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KIRITIMATI. 846 kHz, March 21 at 0706, JBA carrier from R.
Kiribati, only 9/kHz split in MW bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, March 21 at 1537, two signals beating,
S8/S9. Seems the Recep Turkish jammer and Dengê Welat are sticking
here rather than 17470 or 17480. Site for D.W. unclear; latest EiBi
shows UZBEKISTAN for all three, which makes sense propagationally, but
not frequencially since it`s no longer minus ~250 Hz or so; Aoki
misses them completely. Besides too-close Armenia, also possible per
wolfie: Bulgaria, Tajikistan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** MONGOLIA. Re last report under UZBEKISTAN, aside about VOM
frequencies, a correxion from Ron Howard about the 09-11 UT broadcast:
``Thanks very much to Glenn, for noticing my strange posting. I had
the wrong frequency for the Voice of Mongolia. I definitely heard them
on 12084.87, NOT 12014.87. Very sorry for my mistake!`` - so the
listed schedule is correct -- except for being way off-frequency in
both cases. I wish everyone were so diligent in issuing correxions
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, March 20 at *2255 on, VOR covering BBCWS OMAN with IS
& English IDs. By 2311 and for rest of hour, heavy pumping fast fading
SAH, presumably caused by XJPBS now also upon slightly different
frequency - but see below. Via UTwente displaying 5959.999+, quite
unusual to swerve to the minus side. 2316 ending `Review of the
Turkish Press`; 2319 salute to search & rescue teams from abroad. I`m
checking in & out: 2331 outro `Feeling Supreme/The Healing Supring`;
2332 with-you-every-hour promo, song; 2337 always-by-your-side promo;
``La Bamba`` theme to `New Day, New Choices` about the art form of
dioramas; 2343 always-with-you promo, music; 2347 a-b-y-s promo; 2348
`Did You Know That` about an Istanbul top restaurant whose chef comes
from Finland, Sweden, USA; 2351 a-b-y-s promo again; 2352 s/off; 2354
IS to 2355* uncovering XJPBS: but even after reloading also displays
as 5959.999+ so that does not explain the SAH. By last check 0028,
however, that has drifted up to 5960.001 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565 CW, March 20 at 0601, HIFER beacon with continuous
K6FRC IDs
from Patterson CA; vs CODAR. Must be very first time I`ve heard it
outside the usual post-sunrise window around 14/16 UT, suspecting it`s
not 24h. It was stronger then than JBA at 1504 vs CODAR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) [My original report was lacking the ID!]

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2182 monitoring: confirmed UT
Tuesday March 21 at 0030 on WRMI 9395, S9+20 into Maryland SDR, after
Jeff`s ``Turmoil`` auto-interjexion. Next:

2330 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW
1000 UT Wednesday Unique R, Australia 5035 USB [low power]
2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
0030 UT Thursday WRMI 9395 to NNW
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S

** U S A. 5085, March 21 at 0100, WTWW-2 is still missing, as George
McClintock updates me: altho he can operate it remotely, he has been
recovering from a virus or something for the past two weeks, quite ill
at home - and also a week without power following the windstorm; still
trees across the street. Meanwhile the station still needs a *lot* of
work; I suspected he was axually somewhat enjoying the
troubleshooting, repairing challenges, when he can get to the site.
Says an insulator broke at the end of an antenna wire, called a
Steotype, or something like that. #2 transmitter runs at 70 kW, but
Ted left with the harmonic filter not working [tho I never heard any
second harmonix from it]. Parts to bring the #1 up from 70 to a
minimum of 90 kW were ordered and supposed to be shipped from China
three weeks ago; follow-up found they were not shipped until last
week, so wait another week. Hoping that a sale will go thru but not
firm yet. Buyer will gain among everything else, at least twelve high
power tubes. Each transmitter needs only one, but Ted had been running
the filaments 24 hours, wearing them down, all of them only partly
depleted. Come to think of it, everything was done wrong. George is at
least making sure by remote control that the filaments are off when
not transmitting. #1 and #3 are in pieces. #3 driver tube is no good.
A fan was cooling a balun, but fan`s power was not wired in. A
frequency coil was missing, so had to recalibrate. Currently concerned
with fixing the automatic gate to the property (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, March 21 at 0715, S4/S6 carrier from R. Vanuatu,
seems dead air as often reported now after cyclone damage. At 0612,
Gary Pence was hearing carrier, no modulation into Oahu SDR (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 7720 & 7680, March 21 at 1529, JBA talk, seem to be real
as still there with preamps off, do not compute as strong signals
mixing with my two local MW signals on 960 & 1390, nor of course as
harmonix. Nothing listed on either in EiBi & Aoki. Possibly remnant of
ChiCom jamming against new SOHs?

7665, March 21 at 1530, OTOH is jamming vs RFA Tajikistan. Also JBA
carriers this late on 7390 NZ remnant [which in a few days for A23
changes to 7440]; 7365 & 7300, China and/or jammers (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED [non]. Now that we are equinoxial, chances for
nightmiddle propagation on higher bands increase: March 21 at 0643, I
detect two JBA carriers on 16m: 17640 listed as BBC English via
ASCENSION; and weaker 17730, SAUDI ARABIA in Arabic, the OSOBs (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

Hauser
** CUBA. 890, March 20 at 0252 UT, Spanish music, ``en la Habana``,
hardly any signal from WLS, on E/W antenna, must be auroral
conditions, WCCO also attenuated; then introduces a Norwegian
orchestra to play a tune ``Cuban --`` something titled in English. No
doubt the 200 kW Radio Progreso at Chambas, but no SW // 4765 to
compare (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6000, March 20 at 0225, RHC S9+40/45 but huge humbuzz atop
English modulation. The hum may be local as I also hear it on some
other strong signals, but not the buzz. Something`s always wrong at
RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9700, March 20 at 0237, S9+20/25 of dead air, no doubt RHC.
Wolfie thinx this replace 6165 English, ever on air any more?
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 20 at 0240, S9+18 of dead air from RHC where
something`s always wrong. Also DA of S9+20 at 0606, thus for 3+ hours?
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 11850, March 20 at 0240, RHC S6/S7, just barely
modulated as standard for this frequency, flanked by JBA spur carrier
on 11840; and on 11860 QRMing the jamming against nothing and
something else, presumably Sa`udi`s Yemen surrogate. Something`s
always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** INDIA. 15050, March 20 at 0219, algo S1/S2 to S3/S4. Must be AIR
Indonesian hour 0130-0230 via Bengaluru. I continue to marvel how
aeronauticals have not driven broadcasters out of their band (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 6925 USB, March 20 at 0229, live DJ seems quite a
character, S9+10, says may not stay on much longer, a tune; 0232
recheck just in time for ``thanks for putting up --- ID?, over and
out``. These show it`s Pigs Knuckles, until 0232*, several other
reports:
https://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,111514.0.html
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NORTH AMERICA. 7475 AM, March 20 at 0234, Station YHWH, earnestly
questioning Christianity, S9+15/20 undermodulated (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** SAO TOME E PRINCIPE. 13865, March 20 at 0559 open carrier, 0600 BBC
with `Newshour`. One hour only relay via Pinheira, and strangely
enough, not noticeably off-frequency. Signal on band second only to
13755 NZ (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 13565 CW, March 20 at 0601, HIFER beacon with continuous IDs
from Patterson CA; vs CODAR. Must be very first time I`ve heard it
outside the usual post-sunrise window around 14/16 UT, suspecting it`s
not 24h. It was stronger then than JBA at 1504 vs CODAR (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2182 monitoring: confirmed Sunday
March 19 at 2100.5 on IRRS SW via AM Italia, 1323 kHz only, S9+15 into
nearby Noale SDR above lite music CCI presumably Smooth Radio,
Brighton, England.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 20 at 0030 on WRMI 7780, S9/+10 into
Louisiana SDR, still blasted by noise first 14 seconds, and bits
later.

Also confirmed UT Monday March 20 from 0303, ex-0400v, after dead air
from 0301 tune-in, S9+5 on WBCQ Area 51, 6160-. Next:

0030 UT Tuesday WRMI 9395 to NNW

** U S A. 9380-9410, March 20 at 0610, splatter range out of WRMI-6,
9395 with TOMBS at S9+10/20 somewhat overmodulating. Not as bad as
9455 was recently (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9975, UT Monday March 20 at 0238, S9+25/30 of gospel huxter,
so KVOH manages to be on air at least partly this weekend (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, March 20 at 0250 UT, dominant signal on E/W antenna is
Spanish ad citing 678 area code phone number twice. Therefore it has
to be WLBA, Gainesville GA, a 10 kW ND daytimer! And no KLEY KS
cheater audible for a change. Overcomes KWKH which is not much at
night thisaway.

New on me, but Terry Krueger, FL, reported: ``1130 GEORGIA WLBA
Gainesville 1038 12/18/22 The perpetual overnight cheater, parallel
1600 WAOS overnight power cheater, with the usual Mexi-tunes format``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1150, March 20 at 0249 UT, S9 of dead air on E/W antenna,
S9+28 on N/S wire, no doubt the dominant night station here, KSAL
Salina KS (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1440, March 20 at 0248 UT tune-across, ``1440 KPUR`` and Ag
update, i.e. Amarillo TX in its current farm format. No ghost from
WGEM to conflict with it any more (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** UZBEKISTAN [and non]. 12084.844, March 20 at 1510, weak carrier
with flutter, I first thought must be V of Mongolia, always
off-frequency -- but Aoki shows that at 09-11 only, while 1500-1530 is
AWR Tamil via Tashkent, which is also way off-frequency. At 13-15 VOM
is supposed to be on 12015- which is also offset minus. However, Ron
Howard just reported March 17 that it was on 12014.87 until 1100
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9340 USB, March 20 at 0608, one side of 2-way, including
whistling, laughing in unknown language (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 335 MCW kHz, March 19 at 0724 UT, dash and YLD, 1000-watt
ND beacon at Chapleau ON, which https://dxinfocentre.com/ndb.htm says
is ``to be decommissioned 2023-04-20``.

351 MCW kHz, March 19 at 0723 UT, dash and YKQ, 500-watt ND beacon at

(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA. 1610 kHz, March 19 at 0721 UT, dead air from CHHA
encountered on my 9/kHz TA/TP bandscan (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 9490, March 19 at 0716, S7 pulse jamming against nothing,
long after Radio República via RMI via France is finished. A night or
two ago, no such overrun was heard. HFCC A23 shows: RMI Spanish at
01-02 daily, extended to 03 on Mon/Tue/Wed, to 04 on Sun/Thu/Fri/Sat;
yet NHK via France 9490 daily at 03-05: something`s got to give. Lhasa
also on 9490 02-10 daily (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11760, March 19 at 1520, Sunday-only Esperanto from RHC is
S9/+10 but just barely modulated; while // 15140 is S8/9+10 but merely
undermodulated. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** KURDISTAN [non]. 17460, March 19 at 1517, S8/9+10, two clashing
with fast SAH, at least one with music, nothing on 17470 or 17480, so
presumed Turkey jammer and Dengê Welat both here now. Wolfgang Büschel
agreed much earlier on WOR iog at 0940 and thinx DW now via ARMENIA,
apparently because it`s even .000, not way-off-frequency-minus as with
Uzbekistan, while jammer was 17460.014. Seems to me both Armenia and
Emirler are too close to Kurdistan on 17+ MHz, skipping over target.
Theoretically, if DW were at an optimum skip distance, the higher band
would be advantageous over the domestic-site jammer (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

** PERU. 4820, new SW in Perú, Radio Integridad --- Re on WOR iog:
``Peru. 4820. Radio Integridad. Mar 17. 1029-1110 UT. ID: "Radio
Integridad" and program "En esto pensad" + songs+ ID: "Red radio
integridad, la voz que glorifica a Dios" + Songs and so on. 45444 to
35333. Audio:
https://youtu.be/cqkqZaywJ-A
(Claudio Galaz, Receiver: XHDATA D-808; Antenna: Long Wire, QTH:
Ovalle, IV Región, Chile)``

Aha, that correlates with my unID JBA carrier on 4820, otherwise
unaccounted for, March 17 at 0632, when 4810 presumed R. Logos was
also on and there was no STANAG noise in between.

Tonight, UT March 19 before 0300, still no STANAG! IIRC that was
Martinique? 4810 is on but no 4820. After 0300, 4810 also off. At 0635
check, 4820 has a weak bonker! CODAR swirshing extends no higher than
4812 so bothers 4810, not 4820.

I can`t make much out of his 3-minute recording, lots of QRM and QSB;
not even an ID but maybe in there somewhere; toward the end they were
talking about Barcelona. Venezuela, or Spain?

Accompanying his YT clip:

``Shortwave Radio Archive 1 day ago ¿De qué país es esta estación?
Nunca he oído hablar de él. ¿Supongo que se ha activado recientemente
en esta frecuencia?``

``Claudio Galaz - Diexismo. 1 day ago De Perú. No sé el lugar exacto,
pero es probable que sea desde el Sur. Esta emisora se parece bastante
a la desaparecida, Radio Chaski.``

No 4820 Peru in WRTH 2022 or 2023; nor 2005: back then there were
Peruvians on 4824, 4826.

I searched out their website:
https://rri.pe/

Includes a map with several FM stations, MW 700 in Lima, which WRTH
has as 25 kW; and one SW, 5980 in Cuzco, once a favorite DX catch, R.
Chaski, with precessing autocutoff times, but long gone.

Also found this, again with no 4820 mentioned:

``Baptist Mid-Missions April 8, 2021 · Red Radio Integridad, the radio
network started by Stan and Ruth Templeton and their Peruvian
coworkers, is blanketing Peru with the Gospel. Their new station in
Moquegua is now on the air reaching 60,000 people. Through help from
generous donors, the Templetons bought 10 new transmitters, which
enables them to equip their other in-progress stations. This radio
ministry has introduced and reconnected Peruvians to the Word of God
in a hard season of isolation due to the pandemic``

WRTH on disgraced FB had something about this last December 9, but I
can`t dig that deep into it. Can someone retrieve that? (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
