** BULGARIA. 11660, March 2 at 1527, surprised to find a signal here
when none is scheduled. JBA, sounds like a few raspy words of Brother
Scare, then dead air past 1530; 1539 recheck someother voice or
language; 1604 check, off.
Meanwhile, 11600 has been off thruout, where TOMBS is scheduled via
Secretbrod at 1400-1700 - Aoki, or 1400-1555 - EiBi, and usually
poorly audible here. Therefore I conclude a punch up error putting
11660 on air instead of 11600 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 5040, March 2 at 0702, RHC in Spanish with
this-day-in-history, still on at an hour there is supposed to be no
Spanish. Was it in English during the previous hour? Some 6 MHzs are
still on in English. Something`s always wrong at RHC (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR)
** CUBA. 13700 is off, 13740 is on VG, March 2 at 1525, instead of
vice-versa as allegedly scheduled. Something`s always wrong at RHC.
BTW, QRX for even more mixups and uncertainty during a month of
confusion from March 8 as the running-dog of yanqui imperialism goes
on DST along with us, but any A-20 changes not fully in effect until
at least a week after the season begin everywhere else March 29 (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
** TURKEY. 17720.026, March 2 at 1518, JBA music/talk, significantly
off-frequency, i.e. VOT Arabic this hour only; almost the OSOB except
for 17615+ Sa`udi JBA carrier. Something`s always erroneous at Emirler
(Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2023 monitoring: via UTwente SDR,
tune in Monday March 2 at 1854, to find something already on 7290 with
rock music, heavy ACI from 7285 CRI. Stronger carrier comes on 7290 at
*1857 but music, main lyric ``everybody`` still audible. 1858.7 change
to another song, ``You Do Something to Me``, stops just before 1900
for IRRS sign-on ID, 1900 FSN news headlines, vs ACI now from 7295
CRI, and 1900:47 starts WORLD OF RADIO.
So it seems the music was coming all along from IRRS even tho not
supposed to start before 1900, and two different carriers / sites /
transmitters were involved today. Or one transmitter with power
bumpup? Aoki says Tsiganeshti, ROMANIA, or would if respelt
fonetikaly, during this hour without listing WOR. EiBi, OTOH says
Saftica including WOR; anyhow heard well with no CCI, and ACI evitable
by LSB tuning; some lightning crashes. Noel R. Green also reports on
this:
``Re World of Radio - A good signal at 1905 UT tune in today March 2
on 7290 averaging S9, peaking to S+5 and down to S7 in NW England``

** U S A. Re `Encore` new broadcast on WRMI, UT Sun March 1 0100-0200
on 5850, Dr Hansoerg Biener points out, ``The programme was also noted
on 5010 kHz.`` Yes, the two are normally in tandem during that hour,
e.g. WORLD OF RADIO 24 hours earlier (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
