Yes, it`s today Friday Aug 28. Listening via UTwente, signed on late
at 1603, VP signal. By 1623 only a JBA carrier or bits of music and
hash on frequency; something on 9665 but not enough to QRM. Nothing at
Portugal KiwiSDR, which should be better skip distance. 1719 still
nothing at Lisboa; wild jazz S7 audible at UTwente but far too much
noise/hash to enjoy. But fading up by 1725 to S9+15 peak on 9670.00439
locked, almost tolerable, back down to S7. Is anyone else listening
anywhere with better reception? Glenn`` By 1730 tuneout, Bill is
plugging his Sept 7 specials on Channel 292 and WBCQ. Wolfgang
Bueschel replies:

``Such mini 10 kW non-directional antenna broadcast to either western
Europe, nighttime across ocean to Maine and Massachusetts, or UTC

** U S A. 6159.9v, Aug 28 at 2347, S8-S9 but noisy, WBCQ `Old Tyme
Radio` is opening an episode of `Amos `n` Andy` as re-produced by Ed
Bolton; a little late if to finish by hourtop? But it does, now
listening to Area 51/61 webcast, 2357 organ theme and outro. 0000 Aug
29 into `Crusader Rabbit` instead of `AAAWWW`, which has already
started WTO theme and interjexions on 7490 webcast. Allan soon plugs
OTR show but says he is now on 6160; random conversation with Angela,
including benefits of vertical antenna to reduce
horizontally-polarized noise. 0023 false-start to politix he always
says he doesn`t want to get into on show, is quadri-casting on 3265,
5130, 6160, 7490. Angela is wearing soft, sexy, pants he hasn`t seen
her in before.

0026 I check Rochester SDRs and indeed AAAWWW is heard on 6160 and the
others; but still NOT on the A51/61 webcast; at 0027 it exclaims, ``Dr
Becker`s Magic Mushrooms on the Lumpy Gravy Show``. Back on AAAWWW,
0032 confirms date as 28 August YOOL 2020; then A&A really get into
politix: hypocrisy, ``deep state`` conspiracy nonsense; they can`t
comprehend how anyone could vote for Biden instead of Trump, thus
ending freedom and everything in America. (Me, if I had to choose
lesser of evils, it would be Socialism instead of Trump`s Fascism; in
fact Democratic Socialism is not evil at all but successful in much of
N/W Europe; but the populace needs to be unselfish, a tough call for
Americans, and a Canadian.) Reads long anti-Democratic screed e-mailed
by more than one listener; Angela is also anti-vac, but Allan claims
to be pro-science. 0059 prayer and 0100 over to Hal Turner. Here`s
John Carver`s version:

``Tonight's show started on time on 7490 and just a few seconds later
on 5130 and 6160. I don't check 3265 as it's such a pain to do so.
Allan and Angela in the studio. Opening positive talk about the Area
61 Old Time Radio program on 6160 and all the positive comments they
have received about it. Then a plug for shortwave listening in
general. Some antenna talk then into antennas on dumbphones. Angela
broke in and said they should have a picnic on top of the
superstations antenna and Allan quips that they are the only two
people at the station that could climb to the top and still function.
Then into TV antennas and finally back to radio antennas. Then talk of
antenna problems in FLA because of all the noise down there.

By 0023 they start to slowly drift into some political talk even
though Allan said he didn't like to do political talk during his show.
Allan distracted us by talking about how Angela was dressed and when
the discussion restarted we were back to talking of dumbphones again.
Angela brought up Pirate Joe and Allan stated that he was a communist,
left wing liberal and we're back into politics. Then Allan read an
older email from Ross on the Cape and it had to do with the election
and the general conditions in this country at this time. Angela got
animated after this and Allan started to read another email that had
to do with draining the swamp.

Reading of regular emails began at 0052 and Angela got a little wild.
Closing prayer at 0058 and program was off the air at 0100 again in
mid-sentence. John, Mid-North Indiana`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)

UNIDENTIFIED. JBA TA MW carrier search Aug 28 at 0622 UT: only 621,
stronger than 711, presumably Canary Islands and Morocco. (No 846 from
Kiritimati either) (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
