** CHINA. 18970 & 18900, Apr 15 at 2212, Chinese at S7/S9, no doubt
CNR1 jammers as this SWBC band is occupied exclusively by nothing but
Sound of Hope and such jammers. Checked after signs of China on 17 MHz
band, but no broadcasts on 21 MHz band (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** FRANCE. 13695, Apr 15 at 0656, French from RFI to W Africa, S6/S7,
uncomfortably close to 13690 NZ in an otherwise almost vacant band
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** MEXICO. 6185-, Apr 15 at 0647, XEPPM with S9+15/25 of dead air
again. Something`s mixedup in Mexico (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** SOUTH CAROLINA [non]. 5890, Tue Apr 15 at 0645, WWCR contrary to
own sked is on this weeknight with TOMBS, who admitted long ago
whenever this was taped in his pre-death era, that he has ``nothing
new to say`` -- I`ll say!! Since DGS is also on 5935 WWCR, they join
to produce the leapfrog mixing product on 5980. TOMBS also on 5850
WRMI, not //, at least far out of synch as usual (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** SPAIN. After catching all those JBA MW carriers traced to RNE Radio
5 on April 14 after 0500 UT, I try again April 15 at 0500-0506, but
not a trace in full bandscans up and down twice on both antennas
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 11785, April 15 at 2215, NO signal direct from VOT English;
