** OKLAHOMA. Here is FCC `paperwork` regarding transfer of KBCW & KCSC
from KUCO to something called The Christian Center, Lawton OK, dating
back to Dec 6, 2024:
https://enterpriseefiling.fcc.gov/dataentry/views/public/assignmentDraftCopy?displayType=html&appKey=25076f91936ff50701938cdac8eb0eb9&id=25076f91936ff50701938cdac8eb0eb9&goBack=N
And there is a separate Notice of Consummation dated March 24, 2025,
so just happened. And then the call change.
Thus KUCO has abandoned its FM listeners in NW and SE OK, turning over
the stations to gospel huxters, as if we need any more of those
infesting the bands! What does KUCO get out of it, in $ $ ? The
Christian Center already owns KJRF 91.1, 100 kW, Lawton, ``King Jesus
Reigns Forever`` so KJAL & KJAR have got to stand for something along
those lines: King Jesus Always Lives? King Jesus A Reigner? Ringer?

** SPAIN. 9690 S9+10/30, 12030 S9/+10, 17715 S5/S8, 17755 JBA S3/S6,
Fri Mar 28 at 2300, token English from SNR active on all 4; again
delivers A25 overall sked with no language details, let alone inglés,
but henceforth should be M/W/F at 2200 on 15500 > 15520 > 17715 >
15390. Missed topic preview, but no time to listen anyway, after 2303
news starting with earthquake (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960.004-, Mar 28 at 2257, VOT not off the air, IS and ID,
S9+45 into UTwente. 2300 sign/on by Efsun the axentuated as if it`s
1330 on 13635, awry, and she also voices the olds, so that`s enough
for me (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 5960, Mar 29 circa 2330, VOT not off the air, VG into
UTwente. From March 30, should be at 2200-2255v on 11785, or mistaken

** U S A. (12160), Sat Mar 29 at 1700-1730, `Talking Machine Show`
remains a fun listen every week, via WWCR-2 stream, unlike 99% of the
other stuff on WWCRs. At 1706, Phil Patton thanks Glenn Hauser for
some nice comments about the show in DX Listening Digest - that was
*many* years ago, so an evergreen show in rotation, suspect no `new`
TMS being produced; from before WWCR blew WOR off as politically
incorrect. Axually it`s almost all musicking, not talking. Long live
lo-fi! (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. Pre-`AAAWWW` chex of WBCQs, Fri Mar 28 at 2347 into Maryland
SDR: 9330.00, S9+15/25 WLCR in Brazuguese; 7490 -76 Hz = 7489.924,
S9+10/20 FKB; 6160, 5130, 3215 all OFF. At *2355, 5130 -39 Hz =
5129.961 cuts on with IS & ID loop; and 6160 -71 Hz = 6159.929 is open
carrier of S7/S9, by 2359 S6/S8 with music vs stormcrashes. UT Sat Mar
29 at 0000, 7490-, 9330 and 5130- join for `WTO` theme, and 6160-
modulates something else. First interjexion of this new live edition
is ``what the heck``, later ``the last of the free speech media``.
Lots of conversation between A&A this time, in favor of Social
Security once the 300-year-olds are weeded out, Angela axually
believes that? anti-Income Tax. 0011, ``we do get a little political``
but a later emailer or phoner wishes they wouldn`t, driving away half
their audience. They are boycotting restaurants after a lunch for two
in Orlando cost $ 95, so on strike. Angela weighs 100 lbs, Allan 150,
so they don`t eat a lot. 0018 says on 5, 7 and 9 MHz but not uttering
``trimulcasting``. Invites tune requests. 0020 plays a C&W lovesong
dedicated to Angela. 0024-0030 long call from Norm in S Florida, ``Mr
Transistor``. Again plugs their air rates having not gone up since
station began in *1998y -- not even adjusted for inflation? Instead
rely on automation to keep costs down. 0039 datestamp as 28 of March,
YOOLF 2025. 0040 & 0049 more tunes, gab, emails, FRW not arrived in
time to quote, prayer and off around 0100. Then I check 5130- and it
stays on with music until 0103*, as automated? (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
UNIDENTIFIED [and non]. 1530 kHz, March 29 at 0638 UT, WCKY sportstalk
has QRM from C&W music in English. Too many possibilities in NRC AM
Log, all of them non-direxional, either daytimers or low-powered at
night, so something is probably wrong at one of: KQSC CO 15 watts;
WLIQ IL 1400-D; KDSN IA 13; KQNK KS 1000-D; WYGR MI 500-D; WWDX TN
1000-D (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
