** IRAN [non]. 12035.000, June 23 at 2213 direct, S8/S9 ME music, soon
mention Farda and Iran. Much stronger than neighbor 12050 WEWN. At
2231 into Maryland SDR, VG S7/S9 with music, not news on the hour - of
course, it is the nightmiddle there. Chopoff at 2259.7* during music.
Yes, as now scheduled via Woofferton, per HFCC 1900-2300, 250 kW 90
degrees due east, so we are not directly off the back. 12035 is also
via DHA, UAE site at 04-07 & 13-17 with 250 kW at 35 degrees from
there.
Kuwait should have been the preferred SW site if Trump had not forced
it to close - almost? Monthly update from Association for
International Broadcasting June 23: ``Meanwhile there's news about
transmitting stations owned by the US Agency for Global Media. The
relay station in Kuwait that was closed down in early June has been
reactivated to allow 15 minutes of VoA Persian to be broadcast
to Iran and neighbouring countries. It is unclear who is operating the
station as the AIB understands a "manager" had been sent to Kuwait
(presumably from Washington DC) to close the operation.`` To which I replied: ``15 minutes? Why bother? Time and frequency?
source? Not in HFCC as of June 23. Of course we know that R Farda is
back on air 24h via UAE, Woofferton. From what studio, Washington,
Prague, or ??`` Full 24h schedule registered with HFCC as of June 20, first reported
by Jean-Michel Aubier. These are all routed thru Encompass. Here it is
in time order: 2300-0400 9620 (WOF)
0400-0700 12035 (DHA)
0700-1000 13710 (DHA)
1000-1300 15720 (DHA)
1300-1700 12035 (DHA)
1700-1900 9450 (DHA)
1900-2300 12035 (WOF) 9620, June 24 at 0226, VG S9+10 direct, folk song in English,
``Farewell, Angelina``, evidently by Joan Baez; radiofarda.com ID,
more music. 0230 themes and presumed news, 0235 back to music. Website
easily converts to English, but nothing there about any SW
frequencies. BTW, Farda means tomorrow, very similar to the #1 nuclear
site bombed, but I guess coincidental (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 15500 & 17715 S9+20/30, 15520 S9/+10, 15390 S9 vs S8
noiselevel direct, Mon June 23 at 2200, token English from REE/SNR,
preview topic the ``evolution`` of Madrid over 3 decades, interview a
non-native who feels at home there. 2201 token news, only 2 brief
items about US attacking Iran Sat, Iran promises revenge, clip of
Drumpf; Spain`s agreement with NATO to remain in good standing despite
refusing to spend 5% of GDP on defense, now may set its own level. NO
mention of Iran attempting to bomb US base on Qatar which was several
hours ago, so this is olds, not news. 2204 already into Madrid
interview (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.020, June 23 at 2158 past 2200, no signal from VOT
English direct; something`s always erroneous at Emirler. But on by
recheck 2212, S9+10/20 in music. At 2239 into UTwente when measured,
S9+30/40. Not retune until 2254 when IS is already playing. 2256
restart IS with German IDs: here we go again, immer etwas, but chopoff
at 2259.6* (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non]. WORLD OF RADIO 2300 monitoring: confirmed Monday
June 23 at 1938 the 1931 on SW Radio, Germany, 6160.000+ S9/+15 and
3975.002- S9/+10. Next: 0330 UT Tuesday WRMI 7780 to SW;
1300 UT Tuesday WRMI 9955 to SSE [also web-, phonecast];

2100 UT Wednesday WBCQ 7490v to WSW;
0130 UT Thursday WRMI 5010 to S;
1630 UT Thursday SW Radio, Germany 6160. Thanks for financial support this week from Gerald T. Pollard, Raleigh
NC, marking Summer Solstice, a generous check on a US bank to:
Glenn Hauser, PO Box 1684, Enid OK 73702 One may also contribute via PayPal in US funds but not necessarily, to
woradio at yahoo.com (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 5129.9, June 24 at 0126 JBA signal vs HSNL must be WBCQ,
which per own websked is not on the air at all on UT Tuesday!! At 0158
I check Maryland SDR, and hear Hal Turner wrapping up with a
gold/silver commercial, whilst 6160- is off the air, but // 7490-. But
by 0200, 5130- is playing the generic WBCQ s/off. Evidently Turner has
been moved from 6160 to 5130. Why doesn`t the sked show this
correctly? Not that I care to hear him anywhere (Glenn Hauser, OK,
WOR) ** U S A. 7505, 9275, 5085, June 24 at 0130, these stations are NOT on
the air when they are scheduled to be: WRNO, WMLK, WTWW (Glenn Hauser,
OK, WOR) ** U S A. 9930, June 24 at 0128, TOMBS on WTWW is S9+40/50 direct,
with JBA spur parasites plus/minus about 12.8 instead of 12.9 kHz,
i.e. 9917.2 & 9942.8; but no splatter despite huge signal on
fundamental. Continuing bandscan, by 0132 I find 5920 is on instead of
9930: is 0130 now the nominal QSY time? How old is this nonsense from
Brother Hystairical? He happened to mention ``today, 7/31/08`` (Glenn
Hauser, OK, WOR)
