|  ** BRAZIL. 9630.324, Jan 18 at 2230, JBA off-frequency, S5-S7,
 presumed R. Aparecida in Portuguese. I haven`t heard even the carrier
 of this for a long time, but presumed as such on signature
 off-frequency. Its 11856v has been gone even longer, while 6135v has
 continued more or less active, but I think not 5035 either. My last
 log of it on 9630.3 was Feb 7, 2020, but I find one from Manuel Méndez
 on August 7, none since. Now it`s slightly stronger but less readable
 than RVM on 9665v.
 Recheck at 0320 Jan 19, 9630.3 is a JBA carrier, while 31m isotherwise virtually dead of US signals, yet 11905-11915 RNA Brasil DRM
 noise is detectable, but no AM signal on 11780. K-index is 3 with
 strange conditions. But WRMI seems absent from all frequencies, see U
 S A (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
 ** KUWAIT. 5959.887 kHz, Jan 19 at 0353, via Bonaire SDR, first notedas heavy splatter to 5950 when trying for WRMI, Arabic talk measured
 here in SynchAM of 5960.000 minus 113v Hz carrier; 0355 music; 0358
 two brief ~1 second breaks also visible on waterfall; 0400 Kuwait ID
 and news, first about Yemen. This Kabd is always offset minus (Glenn
 Hauser, OK, WOR)
 ** SPAIN. 9690, Jan 18 at 2235, REE North American frequency is backon after missing a week or more, S9+20 in Castilian, and presumably
 English after 2300 on this Monday when I heard some music. But after
 2235 NO signals on // 11940, 12030 or 11685 to be heard here nor by
 TWR DR SDR (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
 ** TURKEY. 5960, Jan 18 at 2305, no signal from VOT English to us,checked at DR SDR and even UTwente. Something`s always erroneous at
 Ermiler. KUWAIT was VG later, tho, q.v. (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
 ** U S A. WORLD OF RADIO 2069 monitoring: not confirmed UT TuesdayJanuary 19 at 0330 on WRMI 5800 since this and all transmitters are
 off air during power outage; see separate report. FSR has pre-empted
 WOR the past few weeks anyway contrary to skedgrid. Next:
 1030 UT Wednesday WRMI 5850 to NW [still needs confirmation]
 2100 UT Wednesday WRMI 7780 to NE
 2200 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW
 2300 UT Wednesday WRMI 9955 [jammed?] to SSE
 0130 UT Thursday  WRMI 5010 to S

 Our non-commercial broadcasts and website depend on voluntary support:thanks this week to Brandon Jordan, TN, for a contribution via PayPal
 to woradio at yahoo.com and commenting: ``Heya Glenn. Thanks for all
 you do for us SWDX’ers`` - also tnx to Brandon for the rx I use most.
 One may also contribute by MO or check in US$  on a US bank to GlennHauser, P O Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 USA (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
 ** U S A. 9975 KVOH, 9955 & 9395 WRMI, 9330 WBCQ, Jan 19 at 0323, nosignals or maybe traces, as K-index is 3 at 0300, but no storms
 reported.
 At 0325 I find 5800 WRMI also absent when FSR or WS should be on, andstill nothing after 0330 when FSR or WOR should be on. Then I check
 all other possible WRMI frequencies, and hear no signals on 4980,
 5010, 5850, 5950, 7570, 7730, 7780, so altho propagation is degraded,
 WRMI must be totally silent for some reason. Just to be sure, also
 check them to Bonaire SDR at 0352: none at all, including those aimed
 thataway, 5800 & 9955.
 Still at 0545 no signal e.g. on 5850 and I check disgraced FB: ``WRMI Radio Miami International 3 hrs · Power outage at WRMI: atabout 0115 UTC January 19, the electrical power went out here at the
 WRMI transmission plant. This means that all transmitters are off the
 air at this time. Our Internet stream of 9955 kHz is still on with
 emergency power. Florida Power and Light estimates that power should
 be restored by around 0300 UTC, but this is just an initial estimate.
 Hopefully we will be back on the air soon`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
 UNIDENTIFIED. Trans-Atlantic JBA MW carrier search, Jan 19 at0334-0340 UT when K-index is 3 so not expecting much, but, beyond the
 high local noise level at lowband: 639(2 with slow SAH of 108/minute =
 1.8 Hz), *684(2), 693, *774(2), 837(2 slow), 882, 891, 909, 1017,
 1044(2), *1053, 1107, 1215, 1224, 1296(2), 1305(3), 1665(?). * =
 strongest. As for the SAH on 639, mwoffsets shows two of the RNE Spain
 synchros are/were 1.8 Hz apart, but not including the big one of 300
 kW at La Coruña (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR)
