** U S A. 9395, UT Sun Aug 11 at 0130, I remember to check WRMI for
the Mason Vye show which started a week before at 0100-0200, and
supposed to be fortnightly; but what would WRMI program alternate
weeks interveningly? Suspected would just play back first Vye show,
and indeed they do. But first as I tune in, the Radio Tirana IS, as
should be heard here like five other days of week; but instead of RT
programming, 0131 cut to unID rock music. Poor reception on the
ATS-909 by the computer and TVs, but check again at 0142, guy is
giving a Canadian postal code ending in 1A0, and a .ca address. 0159,
ID for WQNA Springfield, and then the full Ontario address ending with
N0N 1A0 fonetikaly; before 0200 switching to Radio Prague IS and
English.

Mason Vye had notified me earlier:

``New program on WRMI --- I host a music-oriented program on student
and community radio stations WQNA Springfield, IL and WTND-LP Macomb,
IL and plan to simulcast an hour on WRMI’s 9395 kHz signal beginning
Saturday, August 3rd at 2100 ET (0100 UT Sunday) and again in a
fortnight on August 17th. My program originates from Alvinston,
Ontario, Canada and features a mixture of popular music with emphasis
on Canadian artists. North American satellite TVRO listeners may
remember me from the defunct W0KIE network. Regards, Mason Vye, Aug 2,
WORLD OF RADIO 1994, DX LISTENING DIGEST)``

I missed the first one, but saw him already on the WRMI sked grid with
his name as the program title. Too bad this bumps off Radio Tirana,
but they never asked to be on WRMI anyway, and are already pre-empted
on UT Thursdays for `This Is A Music Show`.

Then August 9, he writes me again: ``WQNA FM is ending after 40 years
in Springfield, Illinois. The Capital Area Career Center has put the
station up for sale due to rising operating costs and declining
student enrollment in the Radio-TV program. Until a buyer is found,
WQNA will continue to operate with its volunteer staff. Regards, Mason

UNIDENTIFIED. 11702-11704, Aug 11 at 1343, intermittent SSB talk
sounds like English intonation, but cannot make it resolve by tuning
