** CHINA [non]. 6180, Dec 16 at 2321, S9+20/30 of dead air, some
music JBA underneath which may be // 11780 Brasil. DA likely Cuban

signal from R. República via RMI via Issoudun. Used to be 7 dpw
but now with conflicting lesser listings: HFCC 01-02 & 02-03 Sun
& Mon only; but WRMI skedgrid claims 02-03 on Sat/Sun/Mon - so
those are the DOW and HOD we need to check (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

** TURKEY. 5960, Dec 16 at 2256, VOT IS, S9+10/20 direct, 2300
s/on in English as if it`s 1330 on 13635; something`s always awry
