** OKLAHOMA. 255 MCW kHz, April 2 at 0705 UT, SW, ND beacon at
StillWater! First time heard since Nov 24, 2023. Local line noise
level abated a bit, and red noise limiter on NRD545 helps; despite
storm noise now from eastern OK. But I should have been able to detect
at least a carrier on nightly/daily LW bandscans, so presumed just
reactivated after another protracted outage. I wonder if tornadoes in
the area prompted a turn-on? (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)

** ROMANIA. 11800, April 2 at 2218. RRI English S9+10/20 direct, an
alternative to Turkey 11785 (Glenn Hauser, oK, WOR0

** SPAIN. 17855, April 2 at 2219, still no signal from REE`s NAm
transmitter, but only Spanish on Tue. 17715 for SAm certainly
propagating, better than usual, S9+10/20 direct about equal to ME
channel 15520. Something`s notright at Noblejas (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)

English with multi-lingual ID filler reel; 11780 RNA Brasil also on

VG but strength not noted, promo for TRT World, music; 2250 new promo

``twelve-dirty to dirteen-dirty`` on 17620 only, plus satellite
parameters, and IS until off at 2255.5*. Something`s always awry at

MidlAnd TX; 332, QT Thunder Bay ON; 353, LI, LIttle Rock AR; 379, RU
RUssellville AR - really RUE but for longtime dropping the E. See also
OKLAHOMA for 255, SW. Several more carriers only, I could make likely
guesses from experience. Nothing ``new``, which would require
near-eliminating the line noise (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
