** ANTARCTICA. On May 26 I have sent this inquiry to Adrián Korol of
RAE: ``Todavía esperamos señales en 15476 de LRA36; parece que no
aparezca en 2025. ¿Puede informarnos qué pasa, por qué se demora, o
nunca más? Gracias, Glenn Hauser, World of Radio`` (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR)
** EAST TURKISTAN. 17655, May 26 at 0224, S Asian language at S9/+10
direct; only stronger signal on band is 17675 NZ. EiBi shows CRI
Kashgar in Tamil this hour, then another hour in Hindi (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** NORTH AMERICA. 7475, May 26 at 0548, Station YHWH is on and JBA,
slightly better with Josiah`s thin voice audible if not
understandable, at 0611 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 1210 kHz, May 26 at 0220 UT, string of PSAs overcoming
high storm noise level; must be KGYN Guymon again failing to activate
DA protecting Philadelphia; yes, soon ID in passing as ``the 5-state
big talker, KGYN`` (Glenn Hauser, Enid, WOR)
** OKLAHOMA. 95.7, May 25, KXLS Lahoma = really Enid, ID as ``The new
Mix 95-7``. Had been ``My 95.7`` per WTFDA FM DB (Glenn Hauser, Enid,
WOR)
** PHILIPPINES [non]. 7178 LSB, May 26 at 0613, QSO in strange
language, sounds like Tagalog? Fortunately they eventually ID with
fonetix in English, also expressions such as ``go ahead; how copy?``.
VE6TY with KC6HFF. QRZ.com: ``VE6TY Canada flag Canada, Jerre Bon "JB"
Manlangit, Calgary, AB T1Y6Y3, Canada`` - also shows contact with
KC6HFF on 40m, Ireneo G Amable, dated 2025-03-03.

** TURKEY. 9875.017+, Sun May 25 at 2054, VOT is just ending `The
Pulse of Turkish Foreign Policy`, S9+20/30 into UTwente; 2058
TRTVOTVorld.com promo, which is in 41 languages, music. 2101 finally
start `The Letterbox Programmme` later than usual. Hostess says it`s
time for her monthly report to the program? department about
correspondence. 1) Andre Sirani? Canada. 2) Mohammed --, Malaysia but
thought I heard Breyel mentioned. 3) Siddartha --, India, with usual
query, does Turkey observe World Hemophilia Day on April 17? Yes, but
I bet most don`t know it! 4) -- Henke?, Germany, tnx for last week
helping try to QSL R. Bayrak, TRNC. 5) ?, Canada, postal strike so
will hold QSL till OK to send; QRM de RNA 11780. 6) Jayanta
Chakroborty, New Delhi, India = last one. Letterbox is 2nd most
popular program after Turkish music. 2114 Cemre closes, going to visit
Black Sea coast?, theme and no other music insert this time.
Good thing I got it on 9875, as a sesquihour later, at 2230, the next
broadcast on 11785 is AWOL! Something`s always erroneous at Emirler.
Furthermore, the 03 final repeat also missing at 0321 May 26 check
into NH SDR: No 7275, 6165 nor accidentalternate 9465.
BTW, TURKEY BANNED VOA ALREADY IN 2022 --- perhaps the least we can do
is boycott VOT now and tell them so. See this report via David Cole:
https://www.dw.com/en/us-public-media-shutdown-hits-harder-in-turkey/a-72661761
VOT anyway admits it doesn`t report any hard news about Turkey itself!
Of course the Voice of Trump should now be banned, everywhere (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)

** U S A. 5085, May 26 at 0239. WTWW S9+40/50 direct with music. The
other WTWW on 5920 also playing other music (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A. 7505, May 26 at 0546, WRNO on later than usual with music,
rap? Unseems gospel, S9+40/45 direct. By 0610 recheck, in Chinese!
which must be why it was still on before 0600. Lotsa luck finding a
program schedule or much of anything beyond plea for donations at

``Recognizing the need to reach specific language groups, WRNO has
taken a significant step by introducing Christian programming in
Mandarin Chinese and Hindi.Through our expansion into Mandarin Chinese
and Hindi programming, we seek to deepen our commitment to connecting
with diverse audiences and overcoming barriers to Christian outreach.
By utilizing the unique capabilities of shortwave broadcasts, WRNO
bypasses country restrictions and serves as a virtual lifeline for
Christians in regions where the practice of their faith is
restricted.`` The chances of WRNO reaching China at 06 UT on 7 MHz are
minimal. More info on FB? https://www.facebook.com/wrnoworldwide/ -
