** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Oct 8 start listening via Argentine
remote circa 1440 but nothing until cuts on during song at *1449; 1456
canned standard sign-on, multilingual including English that this is
in Spanish, 1457 staff names, 1458 themesong, 1502 recitation, but
gone by 1505 already. It was very weak from the start and during my
breakfast did not have a chance to fish for better signal via other
SDRs, so at first thought it might have been fade-out or hit by SID;
but nothing further following hour. Another bust.

WWV reported: ``Geophysical Alert Message

** BRAZIL [and non]. 9665v, Oct 8 at 0630, unusually NO signal from
RVM; bot some weak music on 9670, probably Channel 292, Germany (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 5800, Oct 8 at 0336, WRMI reactivated with Spanish,
presumed R. República as scheduled, with heavy jamming at about equal
level here. Now all other hours on 5800 are subject to jamming. At
least that`s not a WOR frequency; jamming on 9955 is bad enough (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** FINLAND [and non]. Sat Oct 8 is a date for almost-monthly
Scandinavian Weekend Radio; no chance of hearing its 100 watts direct,
but I have another go at it via UTwente, at 1608, without checking
first which of its two alternate frequencies on each band now be
scheduled: 5980 weak in English about Mongolia, must be New Zealand.
6170 weak music, heavy ACI de 6165 Chinese music. 11690 VG French from
CGTN Kashgar. 11720 weak music, Vietnam sked, with heavy ACI from
11725 Chinese music, i.e. CGTN German service from Site-x. At 1614,
UTwente measures 6169.992 at S7. Sked at
http://www.swradio.net/schedule.htm
shows the pair at 15-17 are 6170, 11720, so maybe I`ve really heard
SWR on one or both.

Earlier in the British DX Club: ``Fair signal of SWR, Finland at 0635
UT tune in on 11690, actually 11689.91 kHz with their monthly
broadcast. Some deep fades SIO 343. Russ Cummings, SDRplay RSPdx,18m

** U S A. 9455, Oct 8 at 0631, this reactivated WRMI also resumes its
previous problem before it was Ianned: splatter, now audible down to
9405 at least, and even traces beyond the other WRMI 9395, to 9350 or
so. Less of that upward to about 9470 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. WRMI updates: On FB circa 22 UT Oct 7: ``No new frequencies
are on the air today, but we were able to make progress on some of the
transmission line restoration. We hope to be able to announce another
frequency back on tomorrow. Stay tuned. Meanwhile, 5800, 5950, 9395,
9455 and 9955 kHz are running 24 hours per day.``

Direct from Jeff at 1537 UT Oct 8: ``Subject: 5010 kHz is back ---
Friends, we have finished work on the 5010 kHz antenna, so it will
come on at its usual time of 0000 UT this evening with its regular
programming. We are continuing to work on other transmission lines
today, but we don't expect to have any other frequencies back in
operation today. We now have six of our previous 12 frequencies on the
air with their normal schedules or with 24-hour operation. Jeff White,
General Manager, WRMI Radio Miami International``

On FB circa 16 UT Oct 8: ``OK, folks, our engineers have finished the
work on 5010 kHz and have tested it. It will come back on the air at
its normal time of 0000 UT this evening (or possibly sooner) and will
run through the night to 1600 UT tomorrow (October 9). We have already
started work on two more frequencies which will take some time to
reestablish, so they will not be on the air today. But 5010 is back,
alongside 5800, 5950, 9395, 9455 and 9955 kHz. Thanks for all of your
good wishes and support.`` (via Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Oct 8 at 0636, R. Vanuatu, S7/S8 with flutter,
better than usual direct, some music. At 0707 after their switch to
3945, X2 = 7890 is JBA, and X3 = 11835 is only S4/S6 with music, but
seems to be QRM from a second carrier, 11835.5v but could be a local
birdie. Have not noticed any such when RV was absent. EiBi and Aoki
both fail to show RV on 11835, nor anything else, ever. HFCC likewise.
Contrast Ron Howard`s report a bit later:

``New happenings for Radio Vanuatu? Oct 8, Marshall Reel, at 0747 UT,
was having decent reception on RV's 3rd harmonic of 11835 (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TATj_Y_zf6s ).
But when I randomly listened to RV from 0910 till off after the
National Anthem at 1106* UT, I had no trace at all of RV on 11835
(nothing there the whole time!). Fundamental frequency of 3945 was
unusable (only a carrier) and nothing on 4th harmonic of 15780. So
only the 2nd harmonic on 7890 was heard with poor to fair reception. I
find it hard to believe I was unable to get any 11835 signal, as
normally that is fairly good. Needs more monitoring! Ron, Asilomar

** CANADA [and non]. Just before bedtime Oct 7, neighborhood power
failure at 0610 UT! Soon notified OG&E, which restored it at 0733,
cause unknown, fried squirrel? So meanwhile, I take the opportunity to
DX during a sesquihour of no local powerline noise, quite a treat, tho
my main rx are not set up for battery power, seldom needed. So I`m on
the DX-398, altazimuth wrist mount. I don`t expect anything
superlative, but what else is there to do? See also NICARAGUA.

At 0641 on 650, I again have talk in English with WSM nulled.
Previously suspected KGAB Wyoming. All I can catch is phone-in number
877-332-8255. Reversely uplooking phone numbers is often unproductive,
but this goes right to: CKOM! in Saskatoon. Guess what: all its night
power is supposed to go north, only a minor lobe south on day pattern,
per NRC Book: Yet another Canadian invading American airspace on AM.
It`s U4 10/10 kW. Radio-locator claims CKOM is direxional only at
night. Last logged here Oct 28, 2018 and Sept 7, 2017.

Now making a `fast SAH` with WSM. IIRC, WSM was once known as the one
station always sticking to precise frequency, but MWOffsets shows it
on 650.0115 as of a year ago, ranging 649.9999 to 650.013. And CKOM:
649.9992, down to 649.9988-, as of 2020y. That means a nominal
separation of 12.3 Hz or maximum 14.2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 870, Oct 7 at 0649, ``wobbler`` carrier QRMing WWL,
roughly also NW/SE, a typical Cuban defect. WRTH shows three R. Reloj
outlets of, 10, 10 and 1 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.994, Oct 7 at 2123 check, no signal today from R. Cairo
into UTwente. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NICARAGUA. 720, Oct 7 at 0635, nulling WGN, I hear recitation of
Lord`s Prayer in Spanish. Surely it`s the closest overtly RCC Latin,
R. Católica in Managua, so SS on 720 isn`t necessarily KSAH, Cuba, or
Mexico, all secular. WRTH shows YNA3RC with 25 kW but at 1000-0430.
During local power blackout, see CANADA, on DX-398, but should be
audible anyway. Probably easiest Nickie, not unusually reported from
USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 7 at 2243, S9+45/50 into UTwente, VOT English
with some hum, much preferable to sometimes squeal, with music, and
2250 the 2-minute multilingual ID filler spiel reel much later in hour
than usual, 2252 sign-off to 2253 fragment of IS and off* Something`s
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Sporadic E MUF commonly in the 70s MHz, but not
above 88; plenty to bounce beacons on 28, checking October 7 at
2015-2033 UT. Except for BC and Veracruz outliers, all from New
England in the 1400-1600 mile range, so are they long Es, double-hop,
or short F2 propagation?

One of these logs leads me to a better updated beacon listing than
WJ5O which stopped in 2016y but is still up, so I quote WI5V from now
on. Precise frequencies as listed rather than measured, but close
enough; next line after my logs is the WI5V info; and after that,
stuff from individual QRZ.com pages.

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2159 monitoring: due to damage
disruption at WRMI, just in case, I check active frequencies at
previously scheduled times, such as 0130 UT Friday October 7, despite
5850 & 7730 transmitters still silent - even tho in this case, WOR was
cancelled two weeks ago: nope.

However at 0343 UT Friday October 7, I find WOR in progress on 9455,
i.e. as had been scheduled at 0330 on another silent frequency, 7780.
Skedgrid still shows Supreme Master TV during this hour on 9455. No
telling what will happen by next week.

However, a Radio World article about WRMI includes this bit of
significant new info: “So far we have three antennas that are probably
destroyed beyond repair: one to Europe, one to Africa and one to
Central America and the South Pacific.” --- so that implies these
frequencies are not coming back soon unless on some other antennas:
15770 and/or 7730 to Europe; 21525 to Africa; 7780 to Central America.
7780 affects several WOR broadcasts.

Also confirmed Friday October 7 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S6/S8 direct, no
jamming heard, but undermodulated:

Also confirmed Friday October 7 from 1815.25 on IRRS SW via BULGARIA,
7290, S7/S9 into UTwente but not audible on x2 = 14580; and also via
AM Italia, as if taking my advice, this week active on 918 kHz, VG, no
QRM, S9+25 into nearby Noale SDR, while // 1323 is buried by Romania
in German; and nothing on LW 207. WOR heard to completion 1844+.

Tuning in earlier at 1758, 918 with inconsequential chat on `Off the
Hook` show from WUSB on LINY, but chopped off just before 1800: ``IRRS
SW Signing-on``, and `Feature Story News`, from Washington - not
``Free Speech News`` as someone guessed; as always, 7290 cuts on late,
JIP just before 1801; 1803 `Spotlite` segment; 1805 IRRS ID, rock
music fill to 1815 IRRS ID again, and then WOR.

After WOR at 1844 a few words promoting? Sea Shepherd, cut to IRRS ID,
1845 music; 1853 check it`s Irish tunes, 1854 DJ and more such music.
7290 cuts off air at 1857* just as heavy ACI from 7295 CGTN English
starts. Music continues on 918 until 1900 IRRS SW signing ``off``, QSL
reports to otherwise denied P O Box in Milano, Verdi theme, to 1903.5
ID. Feed from Noale keeps cutting out. Enough of that - until 2030.

Also confirmed Friday October 7 at 2044 the 2030 on AM Italia, both
918 kHz, S9+22 into Noale SDR; and 1323, S9/+12 with fast SAH and some
CCI nowhere near as bad as at 1815 from Romania. Next:

** U S A. 5800, Fri Oct 7 at 0347, the fifth WRMI transmitter back on
air, in Spanish, presumed the new R. República hour three nights a
week on WRMI itself in addition to from 0100 on 9490 via France. And
5800 is being jammed, as expected as I already heard jamming against
nothing there at a later hour; here anyway, RR/WRMI is well atop. Once
anything is jammed on a frequency, the Cubans will let it run much
longer, causing collateral damage, until now restricted to only one
WRMI frequency with exile broadcasts, 9955.

5800 was already on at 0130 when I heard the V of Mongolia relay
starting. And for now extended beyond nominal 0400* again, still on at
0726 with Brother HyStairical about the imminent doom of Y2K! (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. (7489.9v), Oct 7 at 2255 tuning the end of WBCQ webcast with
special airing of `Extension 7490` as publicized. Sean was going to
talk about radio, which I wanted to hear, and play music requests. I
was out and set up to record from 2200 but it failed. I do hear him
about to play three more tunes, but only has time for one, or part of
one, as 2258 time is running out, and he must get off shortly since,
admiringly and deferentially, he says what Hal Turner has to say will
be much more important. HT won`t be for two more hours tonight but the
original airing on Oct 4 was just before HT. Anyhow this episode will
repeat next Tuesday and apparently same for the rest of October, so
will have more chances to hear it.

Uncle Bill Tilford took me to task for my remark about him and Hal
Turner, so I asked, ``Bill, why be so quarrelsome?`` - and his reply:

``That's a fair and reasonable question, especially since this isn't
one of my productions, nor is it a show "under my wing".

But it IS a relatively new show, and like all new shows in shortwave,
be they music, cooking or whatever, it deserves a more serious
treatment that what was given here, especially since like some other
shows, it appears to be going through the weird fraternity hazing
ritual that the engineering and support staff in Monticello sometimes
put new programs through on the schedule on 7490 and 6160.

Intentionally or unintentionally, you may give readers the impression
that this show is another helping of political or social polemic and
can be dismissed as such, and while you are welcome to dislike his
song choices or stories or all of the above, he (like any other new
host) deserves a less dismissive introduction than what he
received.

Back when WBCQ was doing multiprogram specials on all channels, I
thanked Overcomer on air a couple of times for giving up their regular
hour to help make the simulcast possible (no, I did NOT hail Brother
Stair as the prophet in so doing). Would you have taken me to task
about having said something nice to TOM for letting us have their
time?``

And then I got this from Sean Welsh himself:

``Hi Glenn, As a long time listener to WOR, I am quite concerned that
you may need some clarification of a comment I made on my show
"Extension 7490", according to a post that was relayed to me by a few
listeners of my show.

If you had listened to the entire show, you might have discovered that
my show is mainly humour, music and radio and weird true life stories
and sarcasm.

My tail end "endorsement" of Mr. Turner was simply that - sarcasm. I
think it was quite clear when I said at the end of my show "....I'll
be on next month unless everything that Hal Turner says comes true,
then I won't be here".

My show contains doesn't contain [sic] any political matter - as a
matter of fact, if I you had listened to the first 15 minutes of the
show, I relayed a story concerning my encounter with a negative ham
radio operator from Germany and his political views and how I played
the "What The World Needs Now Is Love Sweet Love / Abraham Martin and
John" by Tom Clay to contra that.

I trust that you'll tune into a full hour next time so you may
understand fully the concept of the show. 73 Sean Welsh``

So there you have it: I completely missed the sarcasm, and despite my
best efforts could not hear the entire show this time. Now Sean has
just joined the WOR iogroup so our contact should improve.

** U S A. UNIDENTIFIED, Posted to MW groups at 1541 UT Oct 7: 1160
kHz, Oct 7 at 0708 UT, surprised to hear a tonal SE Asian language
here with KSL nulled, seems roughly east/west. Woman taking a phone
call from a man, soon faded away. NRC AM Log has no ETHnix on 1160;
there are of course Spanish. This could be part of a REL format, but
so far by schedules have ruled out WYLL Chicago, KRDY San Antonio,
which are in English at this time, if not all the time. Ideas?

Tnx for replies on the IRCA iog: ``Mike Tammy 4:12pm #29504 It's the
Dallas station that was bought out. I used to listen to it till it's
sold.`` And: ``Paul B. Walker, Jr. 4:02pm #29503 ``KBDT Dallas, I
think it was sold recently``

NRC AM Log had it as U4 35000/1000 Highland Park, address in Dallas,
``Big D Talk``. radiolocator.com shows night pattern with a very minor
lobe to a notch thisaway from site between Flower Mound and Plano,
north of The Metroplex, now Radio Saigon Dallas as in
http://www.saigondallasradio.com/ and subtitled ``Snot Rocket Cock
Socket Hot Pocket`` --- hmmm, perhaps more significant in Vietnamese?
Google translate struggles and gets no further than: ``Snot Rocket
Cock Socket Nóng bỏng``

Nóng bỏng back translated to English? Merely ``hot``. What about the
microwave snack? Individually: hot, and burn. Pocket alone leads to
túi or bao. Our VV lesson for the day. Now we`re ready for more KBDT!
Calls have not changed so they need to come up with a new Vietnamese
slogan to match (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

5800 is being jammed, as expected as I already heard jamming against
nothing there at a later hour; here anyway, RR/WRMI is well atop. Once
anything is jammed on a frequency, the Cubans will let it run much
longer, causing collateral damage, until now restricted to only one
WRMI frequency with exile broadcasts, 9955.

** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RCUSB, Oct 7 at 1440 past 1600, monitoring for
LRA36 via Argentine remote, in case of a Friday make-good after AWOL
Wednesday, but nothing; nor did Gary Pence hear it. Better luck on
Saturday? (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CANADA [and non]. Just before bedtime Oct 7, neighborhood power
failure at 0610 UT! Soon notified OG&E, which restored it at 0733,
cause unknown, fried squirrel? So meanwhile, I take the opportunity to
DX during a sesquihour of no local powerline noise, quite a treat, tho
my main rx are not set up for battery power, seldom needed. So I`m on
the DX-398, altazimuth wrist mount. I don`t expect anything
superlative, but what else is there to do? See also NICARAGUA.

At 0641 on 650, I again have talk in English with WSM nulled.
Previously suspected KGAB Wyoming. All I can catch is phone-in number
877-332-8255. Reversely uplooking phone numbers is often unproductive,
but this goes right to: CKOM! in Saskatoon. Guess what: all its night
power is supposed to go north, only a minor lobe south on day pattern,
per NRC Book: Yet another Canadian invading American airspace on AM.
It`s U4 10/10 kW. Radio-locator claims CKOM is direxional only at
night. Last logged here Oct 28, 2018 and Sept 7, 2017.

Now making a `fast SAH` with WSM. IIRC, WSM was once known as the one
station always sticking to precise frequency, but MWOffsets shows it
on 650.0115 as of a year ago, ranging 649.9999 to 650.013. And CKOM:
649.9992, down to 649.9988-, as of 2020y. That means a nominal
separation of 12.3 Hz or maximum 14.2 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA [and non]. 870, Oct 7 at 0649, ``wobbler`` carrier QRMing WWL,
roughly also NW/SE, a typical Cuban defect. WRTH shows three R. Reloj
outlets of, 10, 10 and 1 kW (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** EGYPT. 9439.994, Oct 7 at 2123 check, no signal today from R. Cairo
into UTwente. Something`s amiss at Abis (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NICARAGUA. 720, Oct 7 at 0635, nulling WGN, I hear recitation of
Lord`s Prayer in Spanish. Surely it`s the closest overtly RCC Latin,
R. Católica in Managua, so SS on 720 isn`t necessarily KSAH, Cuba, or
Mexico, all secular. WRTH shows YNA3RC with 25 kW but at 1000-0430.
During local power blackout, see CANADA, on DX-398, but should be
audible anyway. Probably easiest Nickie, not unusually reported from
USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 9830.021, Oct 7 at 2243, S9+45/50 into UTwente, VOT English
with some hum, much preferable to sometimes squeal, with music, and
2250 the 2-minute multilingual ID filler spiel reel much later in hour
than usual, 2252 sign-off to 2253 fragment of IS and off* Something`s
erroneous at Emirler (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. Sporadic E MUF commonly in the 70s MHz, but not
above 88; plenty to bounce beacons on 28, checking October 7 at
2015-2033 UT. Except for BC and Veracruz outliers, all from New
England in the 1400-1600 mile range, so are they long Es, double-hop,
or short F2 propagation?

One of these logs leads me to a better updated beacon listing than
WJ5O which stopped in 2016y but is still up, so I quote WI5V from now
on. Precise frequencies as listed rather than measured, but close
enough; next line after my logs is the WI5V info; and after that,
stuff from individual QRZ.com pages.

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2159 monitoring: due to damage
disruption at WRMI, just in case, I check active frequencies at
previously scheduled times, such as 0130 UT Friday October 7, despite
5850 & 7730 transmitters still silent - even tho in this case, WOR was
cancelled two weeks ago: nope.

However at 0343 UT Friday October 7, I find WOR in progress on 9455,
i.e. as had been scheduled at 0330 on another silent frequency, 7780.
Skedgrid still shows Supreme Master TV during this hour on 9455. No
telling what will happen by next week.

However, a Radio World article about WRMI includes this bit of
significant new info: “So far we have three antennas that are probably
destroyed beyond repair: one to Europe, one to Africa and one to
Central America and the South Pacific.” --- so that implies these
frequencies are not coming back soon unless on some other antennas:
15770 and/or 7730 to Europe; 21525 to Africa; 7780 to Central America.
7780 affects several WOR broadcasts.

Also confirmed Friday October 7 at 1430 on WRMI 9955, S6/S8 direct, no
jamming heard, but undermodulated:

Also confirmed Friday October 7 from 1815.25 on IRRS SW via BULGARIA,
7290, S7/S9 into UTwente but not audible on x2 = 14580; and also via
AM Italia, as if taking my advice, this week active on 918 kHz, VG, no
QRM, S9+25 into nearby Noale SDR, while // 1323 is buried by Romania
in German; and nothing on LW 207. WOR heard to completion 1844+.

Tuning in earlier at 1758, 918 with inconsequential chat on `Off the
Hook` show from WUSB on LINY, but chopped off just before 1800: ``IRRS
SW Signing-on``, and `Feature Story News`, from Washington - not
``Free Speech News`` as someone guessed; as always, 7290 cuts on late,
JIP just before 1801; 1803 `Spotlite` segment; 1805 IRRS ID, rock
music fill to 1815 IRRS ID again, and then WOR.

After WOR at 1844 a few words promoting? Sea Shepherd, cut to IRRS ID,
1845 music; 1853 check it`s Irish tunes, 1854 DJ and more such music.
7290 cuts off air at 1857* just as heavy ACI from 7295 CGTN English
starts. Music continues on 918 until 1900 IRRS SW signing ``off``, QSL
reports to otherwise denied P O Box in Milano, Verdi theme, to 1903.5
ID. Feed from Noale keeps cutting out. Enough of that - until 2030.

Also confirmed Friday October 7 at 2044 the 2030 on AM Italia, both
918 kHz, S9+22 into Noale SDR; and 1323, S9/+12 with fast SAH and some
CCI nowhere near as bad as at 1815 from Romania. Next:

** U S A. 5800, Fri Oct 7 at 0347, the fifth WRMI transmitter back on

** U S A. (7489.9v), Oct 7 at 2255 tuning the end of WBCQ webcast with
special airing of `Extension 7490` as publicized. Sean was going to
talk about radio, which I wanted to hear, and play music requests. I
was out and set up to record from 2200 but it failed. I do hear him
about to play three more tunes, but only has time for one, or part of
one, as 2258 time is running out, and he must get off shortly since,
admiringly and deferentially, he says what Hal Turner has to say will
be much more important. HT won`t be for two more hours tonight but the
original airing on Oct 4 was just before HT. Anyhow this episode will
repeat next Tuesday and apparently same for the rest of October, so
will have more chances to hear it.

Uncle Bill Tilford took me to task for my remark about him and Hal
Turner, so I asked, ``Bill, why be so quarrelsome?`` - and his reply:

``That's a fair and reasonable question, especially since this isn't
one of my productions, nor is it a show "under my wing".

But it IS a relatively new show, and like all new shows in shortwave,
be they music, cooking or whatever, it deserves a more serious
treatment that what was given here, especially since like some other
shows, it appears to be going through the weird fraternity hazing
ritual that the engineering and support staff in Monticello sometimes
put new programs through on the schedule on 7490 and 6160.

Intentionally or unintentionally, you may give readers the impression
that this show is another helping of political or social polemic and
can be dismissed as such, and while you are welcome to dislike his
song choices or stories or all of the above, he (like any other new
host) deserves a less dismissive introduction than what he
received.

Back when WBCQ was doing multiprogram specials on all channels, I
thanked Overcomer on air a couple of times for giving up their regular
hour to help make the simulcast possible (no, I did NOT hail Brother
Stair as the prophet in so doing). Would you have taken me to task
about having said something nice to TOM for letting us have their
time?``

And then I got this from Sean Welsh himself:

``Hi Glenn, As a long time listener to WOR, I am quite concerned that
you may need some clarification of a comment I made on my show
"Extension 7490", according to a post that was relayed to me by a few
listeners of my show.

If you had listened to the entire show, you might have discovered that
my show is mainly humour, music and radio and weird true life stories
and sarcasm.

My tail end "endorsement" of Mr. Turner was simply that - sarcasm. I
think it was quite clear when I said at the end of my show "....I'll
be on next month unless everything that Hal Turner says comes true,
then I won't be here".

My show contains doesn't contain [sic] any political matter - as a
matter of fact, if I you had listened to the first 15 minutes of the
show, I relayed a story concerning my encounter with a negative ham
radio operator from Germany and his political views and how I played
the "What The World Needs Now Is Love Sweet Love / Abraham Martin and
John" by Tom Clay to contra that.

I trust that you'll tune into a full hour next time so you may
understand fully the concept of the show. 73 Sean Welsh``

So there you have it: I completely missed the sarcasm, and despite my
best efforts could not hear the entire show this time. Now Sean has
just joined the WOR iogroup so our contact should improve.

Cock Socket Nóng bỏng``

Calls have not changed so they need to come up with a new Vietnamese
