** U S A. (7489.9v), UT Sat Aug 21 at 0000-0100, WBCQ webcast of
`Allan and Angela Wiener WorldWide`. After WTO theme, mandatory
fiddling with mics, does Angela`s work? [I dispense with all the
quotation marks; some of this is paraphrased, but accurate; gh`s own
remarx in these brackets.]

Console is screwing up. Something wrong with the 6160 audio amp. It`s
hot and humid, 80s and 90s [presumably in Maine, not Florida]. Been a
rough week. It`s 20th of August, YOOLF 2021 for this original live
broadcast. Complaining about masking. 0017, COVID restrixions prevent
maintenance workers coming in from other countries. 0022, annoying Tim
calls in, voted for Trump four times including primaries. [Quickly get
rid of Tim.] Angela does not believe anything she hears, reads or
sees. 0025, quadri-casting on 3265, 4790, 6160, 7490 [confirmed on
quick check of Maine SDR, VG on the bottom two, VP on the top two,
skipping over].

0029, SuperStition update: still on backup low-power transmitter.
$ 200K replacement PA tube is to be shipped [from Europe?] on August
31. Hope to get back on air early Sept with techs from Continental and
own staff working on it.

[Most of rest of show ranting about the WHRI purchase attempt:] Heard
a year ago from Hans [Johnson, founder of Jihad-DX], that it was for
sale; WBCQ offered opportunity to buy it. Got financing together with
borrowed money, to save the SC SW station from scrap. Purchase and
sales agreements made, application filed with FCC for licensing, not
the assets. Filing fee about $ 1000. Normally takes 6-8 weeks to go
thru for domestic purchases. This was in August 2020 --- and then we
waited and waited and waited, etc. There was the usual 30-day period
for any comments and objexions to be filed: there were none.

Finally in APRIL 2021, got a phone call from someone at FCC
apologizing for the delay, said they were sending some paperwork to
WBCQ`s attorneys. WBCQ has always been upfront with its listeners,
Allan claims: [brief mute]; In the mail, got an *informal* objexion
which was filed Oct 15, *two weeks after* the filing window for those:
should have been trashed. And WBCQ did not get it for 6 months! It`s
absurd, defamatory. AW replied, waited, groveled, by phone, email,
appealed via Sen. Collins, begged.

Finally on August 10, 2021, one year from the original application, it
*expired* because Family Broadcasting decided they had had enough and
would not renew the matter. AW does not blame them for that. WBCQ does
not *need* WHRI, but was trying to save one major SW station. AW says
his constitutional rights were violated, his good name besmirched. FCC
treatment was reprehensible. Angela interjects: ``Watch who you vote
for, idiots in power!`` [Right: this all started under TRUMP, don`t
you realize?] We`re not in it for the money, hoped merely to break
even like at WBCQ. FCC purposely delayed and delayed and delayed this.
AW is really angry. We don`t need the extra headache of WHRI, but
wanted to save what would have been WBCQ transmitters 7, 8 and 9.

This is not over. Maybe a petition? Listeners should file complaints
about this matter with their congressmen, with FCC itself. WBCQ has
been wronged, censored, bollixed up. Further legal remedies are not
being divulged. Angela warns, ``They`re coming for you, next.``

0052 [a few items from just published Free Radio Weekly. Allan again
refers to ``single sideband television`` instead of slow-scan TV].
E-mailer advises that the WBCQ webcast drops off at :53 past every
hour: [just did it for me too!] Will continue to fight. 0059 prayer,
A&A agree, ``We`ve got the biggest balls of them all``, into Hal
Turner.

Can anyone dig out of FCC files the notorious informal objexion? Who
made it and what did they say? You may want to listen to this AAAWWW
yourself. Scheduled repeats all on 7490 from 0030 UT Sunday, 2230
Monday, 2130 Tuesday, 2230 Wednesday.

Larry Will`s version: ``8/21, 0000, 7490am, WBCQ. Typical Angela and
Allan Weiner broadcast starting with animated discussions of vaccine
conspiracy theories, whining about McDonald's not serving breakfast
all day because of Covid, a few Covid deaths don't matter when
millions of babies are aborted every year, etc. "Tim from Connecticut"
calls with some more unhinged commentary; he'll never take the
vaccine, ever.

Then they start talking about the proposed WHRI purchase. At 38: Allan
says that the original purchase agreement with WHRI expired on August
10 and was not renewed, so the deal is off! The rest of the broadcast
was spent on railing against the insidious delaying tactics employed
by the FCC who knew that if they just kept delaying, then the deal was
likely doomed. Of course, Angela implies that it's the fault of the
Biden administration. Larry Will, Mount Airy, Maryland``

John Carver`s version ``Tonight's AAWWW show started on time on 4790,
6160 and 7490. Allan in the studio with Angela. Very brief talk about
a movie then Allan had to tell us once again how beautiful Angela is.
Very hot in Maine this week with high humidity and temps in the
eighties and nineties. As is usual anymore, some equipment problems in
the studio. Longish talk about Covid with Angela getting a little
loud. Phone call at 0020 from Tim again who riles up the Covid talk
and vaccine talk. Angela goes into a mini rant.

Allan says they should have the replacement tube for the superstation
by the end of the month and hopefully have the transmitter up and
running early in the next month.

Then he finally talked in depth about the sale of WHRI. Explained
about all the hoops they had to jump through and all the delays.
Holdup was because a complaint about the sale that was filed after the
due date and shouldn't have caused a problem. It was announced earlier
this month that the seller was tired of waiting for the sale to be
approved and has backed out of the deal and cancelled the sale.

I'm very sorry as at this time one of my granddaughters with some of
my great grandchildren showed up at my door and I had to go to deal
with them and missed the end of the sale story. Reading of emails at
0053 s starting with this week`s Free Radio Weekly. Closing prayer at
0058 and program was off the air at 0100. John, Mid-North Indiana``
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1090, Aug 20 at 0600 UT, dead air again from KAAY AR,
facilitating understations, the stronger making medium SAH and 0602
Fox Sports Radio ``live`` ---- really? Or when it was recorded.
Presumed again to be 5000-watt ND *daytimer* WAQE, Rice Lake,
Wisconsin on the Fox SR network, as previously caught Aug 16 at the
same hour (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, Aug 20 at 0602 UT, song in English dominating 50 kW

direct; and 7780 VG S9+10/20 via UTwente. Argentine en français
ensuite par 7780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 4790-, Aug 19 at 0552, this WBCQ is off, but 6160- is still
on with TOMBS, 9330- also on JBA; 7490- off as supposed to be; nothing
direct on 3265, nor at random chex otherwhens even via nearby
remotes.

At 0409 UT Aug 20, to Maryland SDR, no signal on 3265-; 4790- and
6160- and 9330- are on (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2100)

** U S A [and non]. 9455, Aug 19 at 0554, WRMI-5 is still off while
9395 & 9955 are audible, but poorly. 1351 recheck, algo JBA on 9455,
much weaker than TOMBS on 9395; that would be Furusato no Kaze from
Japan via TAIWAN for Korea North, as sked until 1358. 9455 WRMI has
been off since at least Aug 11; no info on the problem or prognosis.
It`s dispensable with TOMBS or SMTV except for two hours of the 24
with variety of programming scheduled: 00-01 & 09-10 (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2100)

** U S A. 4975, Aug 19 at 2355, tune-in one receiver here to 4976-LSB,
and another to 4980, at 4979-USB; as I suggested previously, if 4975 &
4980 come on at exactly the same time, that would prove 4975 is a spur
from WRMI-4. I had already detected The Overkiller on both. YES! They
both pop carriers on about *2358.5, 4975 JBA carrier, and 4980 with
the WRMI IS & ID loop prior to ToH. This also answers my unID at the
end of WOR 2100, recorded shortly before this (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 1130, re my unID Spanish QRM to KWKH in the middle of the
night, maybe one of 3 daytimers listed in Spanish, Powell E Way III,
SC, reports on ABDX August 18:

``[abdx.org] WLBA
Posted Wednesday, August 18, 2021, 7:20 pm abdx mail list
1130 WLBA Gainesville GA *blasting* in at 9:15 PM EDT .
This station has a “history” --- Powell near Silverstreet SC``

A man of few words, does not even say what language. However listed in
last year`s NRC AM Log as SS:MEX, 10 kW ND daytimer, 1 kW critical
hours, group: La Mejor [sic: Peor?]. So this could be the unID SS I
had QRMing KWKH (Glenn Hauser, OK, WORLD OF RADIO 2100)
