** ANTARCTICA. 15475.98 RC USB, Sat Dec 10 at 1502, LRA36 in song,
S5/S7 into Argentine remote SDR, where Gary Pence, TX, and someone in
London, UK, are already upon it. 1504 sign/on ``a partir de este
momento``, ``ciclo radial 2022``, ``Radio Nacional Arcángel San
Gabriel``, staff names, ``Nacional, la radio pública``; 1505.7 theme
song; 1511 another song, rap; 1517 ``live`` YLs intro talk, diciembre:
``nuestro último mes acá``; temp minus 3, ``bastante nublado`` but
1522.3* chops off the air even earlier than Wed 1531*, of which this
is a playback; hoping for a more complete rendition of the typically
sesquihour show. O well, it`s really inconvenient for me to monitor
and take notes during breakfast. Rechex at 1540 & 1550 find it still
off (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 11850, Dec 10 at 0342, S9/+10 of dead air or maybe JBM of RHC
Spanish; into interior longwire during a storm. Something`s always
wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** CUBA. 6165, Dec 10 at 0717, RHC English S9/+10 but very
undermodulated -- i.e. slightly better than just barely. Only
frequency left?

No: 11670, Dec 10 at 0724, RHC English S6/S9 with good modulation on
this frequency supposedly only for Spanish earlier in evening.
Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** NIGERIA. 7255-, Dec 10 at 0715, VON is on at S9/+10 but JBM.
Something`s always abysmal at Abuja (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. As if in reply to my complaints, this appears at
http://www.kucofm.com homepage Dec 10 from the new GM:

``What's Happening with KUCO Programming? Many of you have probably
noticed some changes taking place with KUCO's programming.

We recently upgraded our on-air systems (Thursday, December 8) to
better serve our listeners with excellent performing arts programming
and music throughout each day, evening, and overnight period. These
new upgrades also benefit our dedicated staff in so many ways to
assist in collecting and presenting those special programs to you.

And as all good plans go, these new upgrades clearly "advanced" the
need for us to adjust the scheduling of some of our favorite KUCO
programs while adding a few new ones and removing others that have not
been as popular based upon listener feedback and collected research.

We are currently working to connect our website, mobile app, and new
on-air system to provide playlist and program information. A weekly
schedule of program times can be found here.
https://www.kucofm.com/programs/program-schedule-grid/

We are also working quickly to schedule back in our module programs A
Day to Remember, Composer's Datebook, StarDate, and BirdNote.
Additionally, our new website will be launching very soon.

We at KUCO appreciate your patience as we continue to make our
upgrades, prepare to launch our new website, and provide excellent
performing art music and programming to you. I would also like to
thank those who have recently reached out to us by phone and email. As
always, we love to hear from our listeners. Best, Jeff Hagy``

Meanwhile, at the start of one hour of generic classical I heard the
distinctive voice of Peter van de Graaff IDing himself,
https://radionetwork.wfmt.com/people/our-producers/peter-van-de-graaff/
so we know KUCO has turned over much (all?) of its classical
programming to the WFMT network, as its logo is now at bottom of KUCO
homepage; a.k.a. Beethoven network. It may sound a bit more `polished`
than WCPE, and no longer distract us with Eastern timechex and North
Carolina references.

I`ve sent a note to WCPE about the change, and thanking them for all
the great music they have provided overnight for many years via KUCO.
https://theclassicalstation.org/

Inspecting the new program schedule from KUCO, it looks like WFMT is
now being relayed not only overnight but mornings, middays and
afternoons. Are KUCO`s own announcers being replaced??? That would be
a shame! These blox now bear generic titles. And there is a new 3-hour
jazz block M-F from 9 pm CT = Tue-Sat 03 UT. Goodbye to the 10 pm
strip of syndicated shows such as `Music from the Hearts of Space`,
Fridays. That survives, moved to 11 pm Saturdays. [All times in this
item are CST = UT minus 6; altho half of OK including Enid should be
on UT -7, meridianally. Yet there is talk of imposing UT -5 upon us
permanently!]

`Performance Oklahoma`, KUCO`s own produxion, survives, moved from 8
pm Wednesdays to 7 pm Thursdays, still repeated at 8 am Saturdays.

Various programs from elsewhere occupy most time weekends, and jumbled
around also for a 10-11 am block M-F. `Feminine Fusion` has been moved
from 4:05 pm Sundays to 10 am Tuesdays.

Lost in the shuffle is `Wind & Rhythm`, ex 3:05 pm Sundays, ``for
those who love band music``. We can still access the latest and
hundreds of previous shows at:
http://www.windandrhythm.com/
Where that originates physically has been kept secret, but in past
there have been clues as to: Tulsa.

The new season of Saturday matinées from The Metropolitan Opera has
just begun at 1700 UT Dec 10, still on KUCO, with a brand-new/unknown
opera, ``The Hours``, Still unheralded on the websked but we hope
still extant, is Lane Whitesell`s vocal-oriented anonymous fill music
from the extremely variable ending of live Mets until 5 pm Saturdays
(Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2168 monitoring: confirmed UT
Saturday December 10 at 0130 on WRMI 5850, S9+10/30 into Missouri
SDR.

Also confirmed UT Saturday December 10 at 0500 on WBCQ Radio Angela,
5130, S5/S7 into NH SDR. Shows fluxuating offset of minus 17.3 to 19.7
Hz. Is this fault of transmitter or receiver? Comparing to WWV on
5000.00000 --- there the fluxuation is minus 0.1 to 0.8 Hz, so that`s
obvious rx fault, reading up to almost 1 Hz low. Adjusting that would
make WBCQ on about 5129.982v also fluxuating but only 1.7 Hz worth,
the rest 0.7 Hz imposed by the SDR. Also, toward the end there were
some ``uteblaaps`` much like what forced WBCQ off 4790. After sign-off
0529, carrier stayed on until 0532*.

Also confirmed Saturday December 10 at 1700 on WRN N America webcast.

** U S A. 9955, Sat Dec 10 at 1546, WRMI is on, with ``Greatest Hits
of All Time`` music fill! Rather than TOMBS which is the scheduled
reason for 15-17 UT extension on Sabbath, but which is on much
stronger 9980 WWCR. Yet another anomaly, while weekdays 9955 has been
shut off after 1500 despite various DX programs at 1530 including WOR
Fridays (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 9329.857V, Dec 10 at 0727, WBCQ/WLCR now in Brazuguese
instead of Spanish. That should confuse the Cuban spies when they are
not taking an alternate night off like this date. It seems WLCR will
not stick to any particular language schedule. But, who cares? It`s
all nonsense from the flat-earthers (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** VANUATU. 7260, Dec 10 at 0714, S5/S8 of JBA talk from R. Vanuatu
rather than the 3945 harmonix. Gary Pence agrees at exactly same
time. Ron Howard sends a recording of their ID at 0801 Dec 8 claiming
to be on 3945, MW 1125 and FM 100 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** OKLAHOMA. 90.1, KUCO-FM, sent to them Dec 9, times CST = UT -6:

I wonder, what in the world is going on with KUCO programming?

Stardate has been failing to appear at 9:58 am. Today at 10 am Friday,
The Score, instead of 2 pm. Before 3 pm and from 3:07 pm, some unknown
woman announcer with classical, from where? Unseems WCPE.

Kimberly`s recorded top-of-hour KUCO ID. At 3:02, A Day to Remember
instead of 3:06. Then Kent Anderson briefly as if he were live, before
back to the unknown woman. She never gives her name nor hints what
syndicated classical music service this is.

Another try to hear Stardate at previously scheduled repeat 6:58 pm --
instead, `Exploring Music` is ending! Supposed? to start at 7 pm, but
must now be at 6 pm. Then at 7 pm, Symphonycast, also an hour earlier
than had been.

Is the automation all screwed up? Or has the new boss decided to shake
everything up without even telling us on the website schedule and
playlists? As with canceling abruptly Weekend Radio?
Regards, Glenn Hauser, Enid (Glenn Hauser, WOR)

** SPAIN. 9690, Fri Dec 9 at 2300, token English from REE, S9+35/40
direct, much better than // 12030, 11940, 11685. Preview features
about opera streaming service and another SBG player; 2301 news; 2307
about http://www.myoperaplayer.com from the Teatro Real in Madrid, but
which also provides other performing arts, like theatre, ballet,
concerts, flamenco. On demand also from other venues than Madrid. Has
2500 subscribers, 90,000 users around the world. HD quality video,
audio. Due to COVID, they provide it free in Spain. 2324 on to

Not checked UT Fri Dec 9 at 0830 on WRMIs 5010, 5850; did anyone
hear?

Confirmed NOT on 9955 air, Friday December 9 at 1530 on WRMI, but
confirmed on webcast. I was monitoring direct from 1459: after ID,
1500 starts Blalock the Blaster --- but, chopped off air at 1501* and
no come back. Automation mismatch? Since last week, 9955 had been off
the air whenever checked by 1530.

Also confirmed Friday December 9 at 2130 on IRRS SW via AM Italia,
Villa Estense, 1323 kHz, S7/S9 into nearby Noale SDR, only lite CCI
