 ** BRAZIL. 11780, Aug 18 at 2200, no signal from RNA/RNB as I am tuning up to check Turkey on 11785. So much for `A Voz do Brasil.
Still no 11780 signal into PU2GUN Goiânia remote, UT Tue Aug 19 at 0151 as the token English is already underway, but S9+5/15 on 6180. 0152 already credits for English & Spanish; 0153 RNB IS English outro, Portuguese ID, Spanish with accents, about 50th anniversary of RNB starting in Portuguese then Spanish translation, documental about Parque Rodeador site, evidently rerun; 0158 back to credits already (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** CUBA. 15230, Aug 18 at 2203, RHC S9/+10 and suptorted, probably Portuguese since not // 13780 in music, but that drops to JBA level. Somethings always wrong at RHC. I see Aoki still doesn`t have RHC on 13780 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** SPAIN. 17715 S9+20/30 and much weaker 15390 direct, while 15500 & 15520 are still OFF, Mon Aug 18 at 2200 and later, REE stays in Spanish, NO English! as originally M/W/F at this hour. To be expected, as Alan Roe warned us earlier at 0703: ``Maybe no REE English this week? I have just noticed that the REE daily programme schedule for this week https://www.rtve.es/play/guia-rne/radioexterior/ is not showing any English programming at all. I seem to recall a few years ago that the English service took a "holiday" break at around this time (I think that was during the time that Justin Coe was the only presenter on the English service). However, I wonder if this is connected to the "new season" of programming recently announced by Marilyn whereby, starting 1 September, English will only be heard once a week on Wednesdays? Alan Roe, Teddington, UK`` But still in French after 2230 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** TURKEY. 11785.018-, Aug 18 at 2159, NO signal direct from VOT English; something`s always erroneous at Emirler. However, it`s on at next check 2207, S9+10/20 direct, must have come on how? late; and at 2225 into UTwente when measured during music, S9+35/45 (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A [and non}. WORLD OF RADIO 2308 monitoring: confirmed Monday August 18 at 1930 on SW Gold Radio, Germany, 6160.001- S8/9+10 and 3975.001+ S9/+10 into UTwente.

Are they really aiming at Europe across mostly darkpath? All three frequencies are supposedly 300 kW at 53 degrees to CIRAFs 27, 28 and 39 = W & C Europe, Turkey, Arabia. Directly off the back 233 degrees would be close to thisaway (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) ** U S A. 570, re last report: ``Glenn, the 570 in Las Cruces was longtime KGRT up until 2000, with a brief revival in 2014. In the 20th Century it was a daytimer with a very good groundwave signal, could hear it along I-40 driving through New Mexico. Stephen Luce, Houston, Texas`` (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) UNIDENTIFIED. 21495, Aug 18 at 2158, JBA carrier is the OSOB and consequently the SSOB.
