** CHINA. 11785, re my report of a special musical event on CNR1
jammer, May 15 before and after 1300, Ron Howard replies on the WOR io
group:

``Hi Glenn, Here in California, I was also listening to CNR1 (6125
kHz.). Live coverage of the opening ceremony of the Conference on
Dialogue of Asian Civilizations [explained in English:]
http://bit.ly/2W9Gru6
being held in Beijing; live coverage ended at 1345. A major event, as
it was attended by Chinese President Xi Jinping. Many performers (song
Auld Lang Syne, etc.). My audio of a portion of today's coverage at
http://bit.ly/2JkBuZz
Ron``

Very good; but I fail to comprehend what ``ALS`` or ``Nessun Dorma``
by Puccini have to do with any Asian civilisation. Or have the ChiCom
coÃpted those too as their very own? (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO
1982, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. RF 17, afternoon of May 16, shortly after my previous
report, K17JN-D Enid was back on air at first with weaker than usual
signal, black and silent screen on each of 6 subchannels; and then
resuming `normal` strength and 3ABN programming only on -1, -3 and -5
as before, still transmitting but nothing on -2, -4 and -6 (Glenn
Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** SPAIN. Correxion: the first time mentioned should have been 2158,
not 2258; fixed: 12030, May 13 at 2158, REE with ME music, presumably
rounding out the Arabic service, but transmitter cuts off and back on
several times. ID and 2200 starting English, but now cuts off and
stays off, while English remains on the other three, 11940, 11670 and
9690. It`s supposed to continue on 12030 too... (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX
LISTENING DIGEST)

** TURKEY. 9830, May 15 at 2330 check, VOT on again with extra German
broadcast, announcement amid TÃrkmusik, fair S8-S9+10; unknown today
whether also managed to air English during previous hour (Glenn
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 1981 monitoring: not confirmed
Wednesday May 15 at 2100 on WRMI 9955 --- no signal, yet again. This
time I stay tuned with offset BFO so I am notified immediately the
carrier oncome at *2111, JIP WOR and ending 2129 as usual. This keeps
happening on this broadcast, the 9955 transmitter with some problems;
also sometimes on after 1400 as May 10, yet off before 1400 May 16
(not May 15 as I misremembered in WOR 1982 remark).

Well, Wed at 2100 there`s always the alternative for WOR on WBCQ
7490.2v, coincidentally simulscheduled --- NO, it`s not on either at
2100! rather some off-key singing, which has got to be the late
Goddess Irena, who used to follow WOR at 2130. On a hunch, I check
again at 2130, and by golly there is WOR starting, signal having faded
up a bit to VP S3. So the two programs have been swapped. I hope this
be intentional and will maintain, as that`s slightly better for WOR
listeners. Am not holding breath for any confirmation on the websked
which still imagines WOR is on 9330 almost daily at 2330!

Also confirmed UT Thu May 16 at 0117 the 0100 on WRMI 7780, F-G S9+10.

WORLD OF RADIO 1982 contents: Alaska, Australia, China, Cuba, Eritrea
non, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Korea North non,
Lithuania, Mali, Nigeria non, Papua New Guinea, Russia and non, Sa`udi
Arabia, Turkey, USA, unidentified 9200, 15260; and the propagation
outlook. WOR 1982 completed late UT Thu May 16, ready for first SW
airings Friday May 17.

The ACB webcast at 0100 UT Fri May 17 was still last week`s #1981;
perhaps they will get 1982 on sometime during the Friday 3-hourly
repeat cycle?

** U S A. 9955, Thu May 16 at 2145, I`m checking WRMI for FG Radio
from Cyprus, as still shown on WRMI skedgrid and consequently in the
WRTH A-19 update --- NO, something else is on, so FG Radio remains
kaput (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 5890, Thu May 16 at 0543, WWCR dead air at S9+40! So this
waste is not limited to Tuesdays. 5935 is slightly weaker at S9+30/20
and manages to modulate (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

UNIDENTIFIED. 9200, May 16 at 0550, one again the mystery open
carrier, S4-S5 (Glenn Hauser, WORLD OF RADIO 1982, DX LISTENING
DIGEST)
